TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —“ Timber,” in his letter concerning the borer, stated that the South African method of impregnating the timber before use is the only cure, and that this would cost as much as the Onekaka Ironworks.

Perhaps “ Timber ” has not yet tried' out this method of timber preservation.— I am, etc., Prevention. December 19.
