You really don't need soap
in the house, except for toilet
and bath, and possibly a little
for your fine laces and lingerie.
With Gold Dust all round
cleanser can do all your
household cleaning more
quickly -easily-economically
than you can with soap or any
other cleanser.
Gold Dust does the work
better, too. Soap only cleans
off the surface; Gold Dust goes

Best of all, you don't need
any elbow grease with Gold

IDEAL TYPE OF
ROAD pavement
A Combination Highway to Be
/. Tried In New jersey.
GOOD UNDER ALL CONDITIONS
r. A. Mes<sr. State Highway Engineer.
Has Hovsl Plan For Making Service
able Roads With strips Of Different
Matsrfais-Wouid BE Cheap.

The question is being asked on every
aide. .yyhat is the best pavement for
nur country roads. especially those that
are subjected to mixed motor and
horse drawn triffic!
The answer to the question embraces
several factors. These may be sum
married. under three general bends
viz. utility. durability and cost. The
most useful pavement Is best described
by the phrase coined ut the close OF the
eighteenth century by the frnmers OF
the original turnpike acts--that ~. 1t
must be smooth, hard and convenient
for travel mt all Seasons OF the year.
A pavement that meets these require
ments leaves nothing to Ike desired.
In New Jersey we have an nbun'
dance of good road material In certain
SECTIONS, while in others 1t is lacking.
The gravel In some portions OF south
Jersey makes IN excellent road for
nine months Of the year II the travel
is not too heavy. The trap and dOlO
mite of the central and northern sec
lions make IL good road ut all seasons.
but they have two bad quaiities-one
that they become dusty in dry weather.
the other that they break up and rut
under heavy travel. To combat these
two evils various bitumens have been
used. and the results. when the proper
materials were employed. have been
satisfactory. except that the surface Is
slippery in cold weather.
To overcome this objection 1t Is pro
posed to build onr trunk lines us fol
lows: Pave the twelve feet In the center
of the road with mixture Of stone
and asphalt and OH each side Of this
lay n plain macadam pavement -four
feet wide by four inches deep. ln slip

perry weather on road Of this sort the
horses can travel on the stone on ench
side, allowing one wheel of the wagon
to run on the bituminous pavement II
the driver so desires and leaving suffi-
Client room for an autonobileito run on
the center. BY following this method
three ends would he nttained-hrst. the
horses would be able TO travel over the
road without slipping: second. a more
satisfactory and wider pavement would
be had for less money. and. third. there
would be less obstruction to traffic. A
btuminous pavement sixteen feet wide
would cost more per mile than COM
bination pavement twenty feet wide
built rs above suggested. aud as an
added advantage OF the latter the trnf-
tic would be distributed over the entire
road
A pavement laid according to this
plan would also be free from the dis
agreeable and nnsightly drop at the
edge that is so often seen on the sides
of a bituminous pavement. particular
ly ii the soil OF which the shoulders is
formed is of light or sandy nature.
This sharp drop at the edge Of the
pavement Is also very injurious to 1t
owing to the shearing off of the edges
of the pavement by the wheels Of the
vehicles when they are driven on or
on. This shearing Or breaking of the
edge is most destructive to the life Of
the pavement The opening so formed
admits the water into the body of the
pavement. and MS II consequence disin-
tegration begins. The durability of
the pavement is thus greatly lessened.
us the breaking of the bond not only
causes the shatteriny of the pavement,
but permits movement Of the stone
particles composing It. This attrition
greatly increases the wear. thereby
augmentlng the cost of maintenance.
with the result that the annual ex-
penditure IL much Increased.
The ultimate cost of combination
type of pavement constructed az above
described will be much less than that
Of the other kind. SO that whether
measured on the basis Of first or main
tennnce cost the pavement above de-
scribcd will be by far the cheapest.
