ROAD EXPERIM
Oil Containing Asphalt to Be Used
With Sand at Cape Cod,

The Massachusetts highway commits
sion is to conduct an interesting eX-
pertinent in road building on Cape
Cod. where there is no stone to speak
of. 4 heavy grade of Texas crude oil
containing a large percentage of as
phalt will be used with the sand. The
sand road will first be shaped with a
road machine, and heated oil will be
spread over the surface. A second lot
of oil will be sprlnkled on when the
first coat has been on for two weeks.
The surface will then he cut up with
Il disk harrow so as to mix the sand
and oil to a depth of four inches. Aft
cr this has been done the road will be
rolled and the surface sprnkled with
thin layer of sand to absorb the sur
face oil. \ little work of this sort was
done under the highway commissions
supervision about two years ago,
which has resulted satisfactorily.

A preacher once said: you editors
dare not tell the truth If you did you
could not live Your newspapers would
be a failure The editor replied:
You are right; and the minister who
will at all times tell the bare truth
about his members, alive or dead, will
not occupy the pulpit more than one
Sunday, and he will find it necessary
to: leave town in hurry. The press
and the pulpit go hand in hand with
