More Oiled Roads This Year.

Prof. Dickens, of the Kansas Agri.
cultural college, who has just re-
turned from u trip over the state
says there is a widespread interest
10 the oil.road experiments, espe
cially in communities having very
sandy roads. Some counties have
several thousand dollars 10 invest
ia oil roads, and all they want TO
know 10 that the road is a success
and how to do II. The Hutchinson
experiment has shown that excel
lent results are obtained where
sandy roads are treated with OIL
and 1t now seems probable that
there will be several hundred miles
of oil road in the state before the
sum mer 10 over. Prof. Dickens
brought home sample OF a sand
road, which was treated with oil in
1901. 1t looks a good deal like a
piece of sandstone rock.
