For many years oil and liquid as

The most prominent method has
been to deposit the oil upon the sur
face of a dirt road which had been
previously graded and narrowed. let
ting it stand from three to four days
until some of the lighter portion had
soaked into the soil as well as eyapo-

with harrow so as to break up the
oil cake and allow it to mix with the
earth In six or seven days after the
first oiling the road WAS given sec.

Where the climate is such that rains
