DUST LAYING.
Oil Used by Canadian Town to Sprinkle
Streets

Oil Used by Canadian Town to Sprinkle
Streets.
Consul Augustus G.. Seyfert of
Owen Sound. Ont. says that 1.-THE
sandy lake shore soil upon which
Owen Sound is located results in very
dusty streets. No matter how much
rain falls or how much water is
sprinkled on the streets in an hour
thereafter the dust becomes a nuisance
and Il menace To health. TO overcome
this the municipal authorities ex-
perimented with oil. which proved
such a success that now all the prin-
cipal streets in the town are oiled.
These thoroughfares are macadamiZed
and are first swept clean and the oil
put on Immediately after with the
sprinkler
THE objection at first was that the
odor from the crude oil was offensive,
but in day or two this disappeared,
and the change for the better to dust
less streets was recognized by all.
The first application of oil lasted six
weeks, and the second application was
put on the other day, and what
were some of the busiest streets are
now perfectly dustless.
1.-THE town officials state that 1t will
be an annual saving of $1,000 over the
old water system and at the same
time give much better results"

Women For Good Roads.


In one of those cities where the
women have actively taken up the
work of civic improvement the wo-
mans club has created a department
of good roads and has appointed a
committee to have charge. This is the
first action of the kind that we have
noticed. The local newspaper says
that this committee has not been
asked TO work the roads. but it surely
will be able to work the men who con-
troll them. to judge by the success of
the efforts of the women in the past
for improvements of advantage to the
city" And therein is stated the secret
of the value of such an undertaking on
the part of these women. If the men
won't build good roads the women can
make them. Southern Good Roads
begs leave to acknowledge itself firm
and unwavering constituent of this
club of progressive ladies who not
only enjoy books and original articles
on current topics. refreshments and So
cial pleasures connected with the usu-
al feminine club. but also incorporate
into their realm of activity such a
laudable work as furthering the good
roads movement.

ECCENTRIC PAVING.
Louis XIV. Covered One Courtyard
With Silver and Gold.

Louis XIV. Covered One Courtyard
With Silver and Gold.
Many interesting instances of indi-
vidual eccentricity or extravaganza in
the selection of material for paving
streets and roads may be cited. 1t is
related that when Macmillan Eman-
nel succeeded to the throne of Bavaria
he celebrated the event by causing one
of the roads leading to his palace to be
paved with plates of FURNISHED cop
per. This, cleaning in the sunshine,
gave all the effect of the more precious
metal-gOld.
We are told also that Louis XIV.
paved one of the courts at Versailles
with squares of silver, each of whic h
had recorded upon it some triumph of
the French arms. In the center of
he court stood a large tablet of gold
q representation Of the luxurious mon
arch's favorite emblem, the sun. Mem
ton of lodge erected to the love of
his youth, the fair Louise de la Val
liere. The approach was paved with
mirrors wherein was painted an ale
CORY setting forth the undying devo-
ton of the king TO Louise.
An eccentric nObleman of Milan con-
ceived the idea of paving the court
yard Of his palace with slabs of mar
BILE, granite and other stone, each from
different land. 1t is said that Eu-
rope, America, Asia, Africa and Aus
tralla all contributed materials to
make up this quaint mosaic composed
Of more than 1000 pieces, every one
Of which was suitably inscribed with
the name of the country or state
whence it came Harper's Weekly.
