BULLETIN ON DUSTLESS ROAD
Department Of Agriculture Issues
Statement Giving Methods for Ex-
amlning Materials.

Dust prevention and road preserva-
tion are almost inseparable subjects
in the study of good roads, so insist
emily demanding the attention of road
engineers and chemists interested In
modern road construction. Therefore
the bulletin of the United States de-
partment of agriculture on methods
for the examination of Bituminous
road materials, prepared by the office
of public roads, and issued as No. 3S
of that series, which contains COM
plete descriptions of the methods Of
examination for that class of materi-
ais, as employed at present by that Of
fee. should materially further the
adoption of standard methods, a mat
ter which is of the utmost Importance
at this time.
These methods are presented In
such a form that any intelligent per-
son may, with little practice and the
proper equipment, make such exami-
nation. With this object in view, the
bulletin describes the various tests
In greater detail than would have been
necessary for the use OF chemists, and
illustrations are presented of practi-
cally all the apparatus required. Also
list OF the necessary equipment for
small laboratory about to engage In
the routine testing and inspection of
bitumens is given. The maximum
cost, exclusive of platinum ware, solv-
ents and chemicals, would not exceed
$500. and probably could be purchased
cheaper by securing bids on the entire
equipment from several drug supply
houses. For the extraction of bitumi.
nous aggregates. the recovery OF the
bitumen and examination of the aggre-
gates. an additional outlay of $125
would be necessary. but this expense
seems to be entirely within the means
of most road commissioners charged
with the construction and mainte-
nance of public roads.
