This model has a similar one which is being used for exhibit purposes by the National Lumber Manufacturers' Association were made by Dean A. Schweichard who graduated this year from the manual art course of Ü e University of Wisconsin. The green fields and orchards sur rounding the farm are inclosed with well-creosoted butts. Near the barn ; is an open-tank treating plant, a I desirable addition to the equipment | of any farm. It consists of one or ■ more strong makes which may he heated either by a fire built beneath or by steam coils if a steam boi'er is available. A wooden silo with cre osoted staves is also shown. In the ' local telephone Kne which passes the farm the poles are creosoted from the butt to a point well above the i i ground line. j The porch sills, steps and the tirn bers in the bridge across the cre"k have also been treated with the o>! to prevent decay which occurs niest readily in such damp locations v here there is a poor circulation of air. Even the railroad which crosses one corner of the pasture shows a g ,-,d penetration of creosote - " in the cross ties on which th<- tracks are laid. The wood blocks with which the barn is paved also have their share of pre servative treatment. Although the effects of the creos ote treatments are at first sight in conspicuous, yet they contribute to well kept appearance of the build ings and grounds. The general air of thrift is the result of efficient utili zation which decreases the waste of energy consumed in making too fre quent repairs.
