some MORE BOILING OIL
RICHARD STREET WILL HAVE
ANOTHER DOSE,
Campbell Wants to Try the Experiment
on a Large Scale. on the Diamond
Head Road.

The street sprinkled with oil yester-
day Will have another dose tomorrow.
This morning there was dust on the
street, in spite of yesterdays work, but
the experiment is not complete yet
Underneath the loose sand there is a
layer of sand that is stuck with oil. 1t
is thought that a surface layer of this
kind can be produced, which will give
out no dust at all.
Assistant Superintendent of Public
Works Campbell said this morning that
he was not satisfied with the expert
ment yet and that there was not enough
oil to make a thorough test. There is
one barrel left of the lot presented for
the purpose of making the test, bv r..
ID. Tenney. This, with more if any rs
to be obtained, will be sprinkled on
the street tomorrow. Then some more
sand will be spread above it and work
ed in as much as possible.
What we would like to do would be
to get $50 barrels and try it on Diamond
Head road" said Campbell IF it was
a success there it would settle once for
all the question of keeping good country
roads here. The present test Is on sucn
small scale and with such poor faci-
lities that it does not give a fair show
ing.
THE proper way to sprinkle oil is
with machine that makes small chan
nels for the oil to fall in, as it goes
along. Above this is spread layer of
sand and then heavy roller is passed
over. The roller presses the sand into
the oil and squeezes all into firm lay

fore gives out no dust. If we can get
