Instead Of using water for sprinkling
the county roads the Commissioners have
decided to try crude oil. They are not
ing the dirt and macadam roads will be
more satisfactory as means of prevent
ing mud and dust and insuring the long
life Of the road. but they firmly believe
that oil will be cheaper than water.
Capt. ]. J. Morrow, Engineer Commits
sioner, and Capt. Edward H. Markham,
assistant engineer commissioner, have
visited roads treated with Oil in various
parts of the country, and they are con-
WINGED of it's value. and 1t was upon their
recommendation that the board of Com
missioners several days ago gave the
District property clerk authority to buy
a carload of Texas roadbed OIL" which
Is en- route to the city.
This Oil is expected to arrive next week,
and according to Commissioner Morrow,
the first roads that will be sprinkled
with the oil are Brightwood and Sher-
man avenues. Should this experiment
prove successful the officials will buy
more Of the material and apply 1t to all
the county roads.
for this work. Commissioner Morrow says
that all county roads. whether dirt or
macadam. that were provided for in the
last Appropriation act for Improvement.
will be improved to the extent of apply
ing oil. the cost Of which will be included
In the amount appropriated originally. 1t

Experiments Made.

Julian o. Hargrova, District inspector
Of cements and asphalts. has been at
work for some time experimenting with
samples of crude oil in anticipation of its
adoption for the District, and M is as
enthusiastic over It's possibilities as are
Commissioner Morrow and Capt. Mark
ham.
The OIL Is mixed with a solution of
soap and water and is distributed on the
road from the ordinary sprinkling carts.
In order to apply the oil in this manner
it must be thinned. For the present this
emulsion will be made by hand. but in
the event of the results being success
full as is anticipated. the Commissioners.
1t is said. will recommend the erection of
a plant for that purpose. 1t will be nee
essary to sprinkle the roads about three
times a month instead Of daily. as Is the
case at present. This is where the saving
will be made.
Capt. Markham's View.
Capt. Markham is of the opinion that
the new method may meet with some dis
approval and objections when 1t Is first
tried here. owing to the fact that there is
a sight odor attached to the emulsion.
which. however. quickly disappears after
the application. and fs not noticed after
