FENCE POSTS.; t Treat Your Own Posts on ; The Farm.?Last From ; 15 to 20 Years. T f Clemson College.?With the derel- r nnninni t: . . ? ui uui uvcaioi'K ministry and the resulting increased need for paw- 7' lures, fencing becomes an important problem. A troublesome |>h. rj <i(j 'o this problem is lasting fence posts. " Long-lived fence poBts can easily be made from most of the common infer- * lor woods by a s'mple preservative , treatment on the farm. Properly lt creosoted. these non-lasting .wood* make posts good for 15 to 20 years, Bays W. It. Mattoon. Extension Spoclulists In Forestry. Kinds of Wood to Use. 1 Most of our common woods readily I 1 take in creosote, a product of the dis-' n (illation of coal which makes wood (lber very resistant. to fungi, or rot, and to practically all forms of animal life ' P which injure wood. Sap pine, soft I ^ >r red maple, black gum. sweet gum, I leech, red and black oaks, cotton-1 ^ wood, willow, the poplars, aro good * sxamples of non lasting woods which tre easily treated, the wood becoming ^ he container for tho preservative a luid. Hecause of cross hands of tis- '< tue of the various white oaks, they P tre unsuitable for treating. The more asting woods (black locust, red cedar, B nulberry, chestnut, black walnut, n >sage orange) do not Justify the ex- n tense of treating for the slightly Inireased lasting qualities. ' Cl Woods differ in chocking or split- R ing wnen in ordinary use as fence w )OKts. This is important, since such d' jpenings allow tho entrance of wood- '8 ottlng lungi to the inner portions of he untreated wood. For example, >laek gum. due to Its interlocked, tl wisted fiber, has proved an exceed- ol ngly sattsfactory wood for treatment. It rhe hay of the southern swamps g< 'checks" badly, giving poor results ol >von In the first 6 to 8 years follow- r? ng treatment. T Method of Treating- P< Posts 3 to 4 inches in diameter are ' ufficlently strong for line posts. Imall posts require less creosote, and list practically as long ss largo ores. I 1,5 tound post# are better for treating han split posts. ot It Is very Important to have the irood thoroughly seasoned. The posts hould be cut, completely peeled, and pen piled In a dry situation well ex- & osed to sun and wind. Peeling Is lost easily done In the spring seaon, always Immediately after the tree . i felled, before cutting it up Into post ingths.

In late fall and early winter, specially in dry situations, it may he leceRsary to use an ordinary draw tnife. Tops of the posts should be beveled :o shed rnin wator. Posts should be lit to allow only about 3 inches above he top wire. Posts with long tops ire unsightly and more costly in rood used and treatment. A light /' rosscut saw avoids waste in chop- ,' ting, and makes smoother ends. A satisfactory treating equipment or farm use consists of one cylindrlal galvanized steel tank 3 feet in liameter by 4 feet high, and one horiontal rectangular steal tank I by 8 eet. The treatment consists of neak- 4 ng the butts in hot creosote (about ft ft tr* P \ /ma ~ %.VB * ? (VI UIIV fcU IWW ours, depending upon the density of ho wood and time required to get a !oep penetration of the creosote, and hen immersing the whole post in a cold" hath, at a temperature of 90 o 110 degrees F. The butts should be treated for a eight of one foot above the ground Inc. The tops thus get only a shal>w treatment hut sufficient to lake them last as long as the butts. Cost of Treatment. A gallon of creosote will treat 9 fists, .1 to 4 inches across the top. or posts 4 to 5 inches. In ordinary iraes a high grade of creosote can o purchased for 16 to 20 cents per allon In . barrel lots delivered. War1 me made it cost from 30 to 36 cents, depending upon the size of the post nd price of creosote, this is a cost ir creosote of from 6 to 16 cents per ost, or average of 10 cents. Other ems of cost for the peel"-* post hould not be over 6 cents apiece, nd for overhead charge on equip tent about 2 cents, or K labor f ir -eating the post is included about 3 ants, bringing the total cost to an verage of about 20 certs. This ould fall to about 16 cents under orinary pre-war prices for material and ibor. True Coat. * , Tint the true cost of fence posts oa le farm should be reckoned In terms f cost of the post plus cost of labif i replacement. If treated posts are ->o<l for 16 years, at least two seta t ordinary untreated posts and two mewal operations are eliminated, hree complete settings of untreated )?ts would certainly bo rery consid ably more expensive than one open .ion with treated posts.
