Wood-Impregnation by a new patent method Impregnation appliances Creosote oil Poles can be impregnated as they stand and sleepers where they are stacked alongside the railway line. This method has been found to pay in Sweden, where timber is plentiful and cheap. It must therefore prove still more economical in other countries, where wood is neither plentiful nor cheap. It has already been introduced into Norway, Denmark and Finland with splendid results. In Sweden it has been adopted by the Telegraph Administration and Board of Waterfalls. The forester of the latter writes in »Skogen» (The Forest): "As the method is simple and cheap, etc. 66 It is therefore a matter of economy, even for owners of a small number of poles, to have the equipment necessary for the maintenance of these by this new method of impregnation. Our illustrations below show the impregnation of poles on lines belonging to the Royal Swedish Board of Waterfalls. STOCKHOLMS BENMJÖLS Norway: J. C. Schmidts Efterfølger, Christiania.

Ltd occupies the leading position in this industry in Sweden, the output of the glue alone being more than half of the requirements of the country. The factory, on the shore of Lake Mälaren in Stockholm, occupies extensive premises, enlarged at different times to cope with the steadily increasing Swedish and foreign demand. Sandvik »Extra» glue and Sandvik »Griffin» glue. These are suitable qualities for joiners and cabinetmakers and preferred to other makes because of their moisture-proof and lasting qualities, especially the »Griffin» glue, which also is well adapted for glueing kerosene barrels, and for book-binding purposes, where its elasticity, even after it is dry, are highly appreciated. Sandvik Foamless »Y»-glue is produced especially for the manufacture of sand-paper, emery-cloth and emery-wheels. Sandvik »Buffalo» glue, Sandvik Match-glue »S. I. T.», Sandvik Papermill-glue »S. I. L.» free from acids and foam. Used for fine cabinetmaking and in high-class book-binding, and also by organ and piano factories, for matches, by paper mills for fine papers, and for gilt mouldings to mention only a few uses. They replace, in fact, real Cologne glue and similar glues of the very highest order. It was formerly considered that bone-glue of as fine a quality as hide-glue could not be produced, but the factory has succeeded in disproving this assertion, and now produce bone-glue of every whit as fine a quality as hide-glue, if not finer. Users who previously thought it necessary to buy hide-glues are using the brands of bone-glue produced by the Stockholm factory, and save considerable sums in consequence. |
