within a few days. The oiled roads
OF California have saved millions OF
dollars to the farmers and fruit
growers of that fertile State in the
last few years By suppressing the
dust that formerly arose in binding
clouds with the passing of every We
hicle. Those dust clouds. floating to
adjacent fields and orchards depre-
ciated the price Of farm produce and
lowered the values of real estate to
a startling degree. The sprinkling
Of oil was tried and the dust was
held In check. Then some OF the
roads were plowed and the oil mixed
with the earth ana the mass firmly
rolled to a properly crowned surface.
Splendid results followed In most in-
stances.
Kansas has long been dust-ridden
and the oiled roads nof to be built
there will. 1t is hoped. prove as bene-
fetal to the people OF that common-
wealth as the California roads have
to that State.
There is now in course OF prepara-
