appliances will mitigate mud evil.
County Engineer King and Road
Supervisor MaIIey might do ike
wise.
The dust and mud nuisance on ma
cadam roads, has long been a Just cause
of complaint. OF the two probably the
latter is the more troublesome. Where
the streets are sprinkled as in Norris
town, with ordinary care and by the
use of improved sprinkling attachments
we think the mud nuisance can be
remedied to very great extent.
Walter l.. Suydam, Supervisor of
Roads in an important division on Long
Island, and who recently made a num-
Der of interesting experiments with oil
as remedy for dust and aa preserver of
macadam roads, replied to an inquiry
from the Chronicle, as to his success, as
follows:
BLUE POINT, SUFFOLK Co., N. Y.
August 81, 1901.
EcIToR CHRONICLE:
Dear Sir: Your letter 23rd received.
MY experiment with oil on a road was
on small scale bought crude petro.
lenm at fifteen cents per gallon, as I
had been told that the low grade known
as "Road Oil' would adhere to shoes,
etc., and prove a nuisance. The Gil
was applied with watering pot, and
also by sprinkling with a broom. The
road was a good earth road and where
not disturbed by travail the appearance
now is about the same as when first APP
piled, and sort of film holds the dust
but where the wheels and horses feet
keep the dust in motion, / fear it will
not long be of use. The great disap-
pointment to me was the effect Of the
oil in making the soil more friable in
stead of binding it together and helping
to make it pack as does water, and this
in our naturally light and sandy road
bed will prevent its use here. Your
road officials might try a portion of
macadam road, first scraping off the
loose dust and apply when the road is
damp. We use here on our watering
cart the Studebacker valves and have no
trouble from mud if the driver has any
care.
Yours truly.
WALTER T.. SUYDAM.

TO IMPROVE HATCHERIES
PARK SUPERINTENDENT WILL
COMMENCE WORK IN AUGUST.
Handsome Buildings to Be Erected
and Several Pools to BE Con-
structed to Beaatify
Resort.

Work on the improvements to be made
at the state fish hatcheries will COM
mence the first of next month, under the
direction of Supt Nussbaumer, of the
park board
To Indian Mounds park, which the
nateheries adjoin, the Improvement
means much, as it will bring into easy
reach a. resort that has been long neg
lected. At present a roadway connect
ing the two places runs along the face
of a bluff deep in sand and Dust and
so tortuous as to make travel along it
anything but pleasure, but under the new
arrangement this will either be done
away with and a bridge used to cross
the ravine between or the grade of the
present roadway reduced.
1t is also the intention to construct
new pools, of artistic design, and to raze
in their place buildings of more perma-
nent and artistic construction. In one
of the buildings is at present kept the
exhibit of fish and Minnesota game birds
that figured $50 prominently at the Col
umbia exposition. 1t is built of very
combustible material, veritable tire-trap
in fact and SIS considered so dangerous
that a constant watch is kept on the
valuables stored within. A handsome new
building will take its place.
Another handsome exhibit for Indian
Mounds park is collection of Indian
relics and curiosities identified with the
first settlers of the North Star state.
There are number of such collections
in st. Paul. some of them very valua-
BILE, and repeated efforts have been made
by the owners to sell them to the park
board.
