The analogy you're presenting can be interpreted in the following way:

Wood is to rot as iron is to rust.

In this case, both wood and iron are materials that undergo a form of degradation due to environmental factors. Just as wood can rot when exposed to moisture and decay, iron can rust when exposed to oxygen and moisture.

So the complete analogy is:

Wood:rot::iron:rust.
