TO TRY OIL ROADS.
Chanute Will Experiment With the
New Sprinl1ling System.

John C. Penny, city clerk of Cha
mute, while in Topeka on business at
the state house stated that the city of
Chanute will. with the opening of
spring, commence the construction of
a large number of blocks of coil road"
similar to the famous oil roads of
California.
Chanute will lay its oil roads in the
best possible manner, and expects to
pense which will stand all the de-
mands of traffic in that city. A good
deal of brick pavement has been laid
in Chanute of late, but if the oil
road proves successful, it is likely that
brick will not be much used in the
future as it is considerably more eX-
pensjve.
In laying it's oil roads, Chanute will
put a stone curbing as for any pave
ment, and will construct a substantial
concrete and macadam gutter on each
then be graded with a, good crown, and
thoroughly. saturated with oil, of which
Chanute has an abundant supply. The
oil, it is believed, will render the street
impervious to water during rains, and
will also cause it to pack perfectly hard
and firm in dry times. 1t has been OBJ
served that the ground in the neighbour
hood of the oil wells, which has been
thoroughly soaked with oil, is almost as
hard rock.
The cost of putting oil roads in shape
for use is almost nothing after the
curbing and guttering is in place, and
it is kept in perfect repair simply by
an occasional sprinkling of oil. 1t forms
a noiseless pavement and also one en-
which the cost of maintenance is little
or nothing.
