Also to be installed will be the equipment used in wood preservation. Experi- meats in creosoting and preserving railroad ties, fence posts, and poles will be undertaken here. "It is our idea to test out the known processes of wood testing on the dif- ferent species and to endeavor to k develop new methods which might be applicable to the utilization of tim- ber," Professor Craig said. "An ex- perimental dry kiln will be erected to study dry kiln, methods. The drying of woods is more important than is ordinary thought. Mechanical strains which are apt to develop in woods after cutting must be eased or the wood will split and crack. These strains would be prevented by proper drying artifically than allowing the lumber to season out in the open." A library for the School of Forestry and Conservation 'will be installed in the portion of the Natural Science building to be vacated by the ro- moval of the laboratories to the hos- lpital heating plant. "The new location has the advan- tage of having railroad facilities which will be of aid in shipping in heavy material," Professor Craig stated.
