It Is laughable to see q community

strange that the only plat in a district

BILE excuse can be given for such a
co%ndition-it costs but little to get
started right-the state university Is
always ready and willing to extend a
helping hand in the way Of trees,
shrubs, plants and seeds. Almost every
one in the district a spare a plant or
easily-grown cuttings Of the harder

and do not leave too much to the

KEEPING ROADS IN CONDITION
Use Of on, Following the Vogue Of the
Automobile, Has Been Found to
Be Most Effective.

The use Of oil upon the roads Is n
Of tho many interesting innovations
that have followed the introduction OF
the automobile. The wheel Of the car
not only raises the loose dust OF the
road, but. as the flattened part OF the
tire becomes once more rounded on
leaving the ground. actually tears and
d~islntegrates the surface itself.

amount of a~sphaltum it carries.
There are three methods of using
the oil. In the most thorough process
the road surface Ia first broken by the
pillow. It is then sprinkled with the
heaviest oil-half a gallon to a gallon
Of oil to the square yard-and then
narrowed and rolled. A lasting road.
bed results. This process. with vari'
GUS notifications, has been much used
In California.
Another method that Is coming into
very general use In the east Is to pre-
pare the roadbed by resurfacing the
crown Of the road and brushing of the
dust. Over this the road oil Is sprin-
killed. from a cart, about half a gallon
to the square yard. 1t Is usual to oil
only half of the road at a time, for
traffic should be kept from the oiled
surface for a couple Of days. The
preparation will last a whole season;
but II the oiling Is done oftener, 1t will
result In an enduring asphalted surf
ace.
The third method, less permanently
effective. is s~prinkling the road with
emulsified oil, a mixture Of oil. water
and saponifying chemicals-which
lays the dust and binds the road surf
ace. but which calls for reapplication
every few weeks. II tho emulsified
oil has a true asphaltuT base, this
method will ultimately result in a dur
able asphaltum roadbed.
1t may be added that many Of the
California crude oils were SO weighted
with asphaltum that for a long time
they we're used as fuel only. The
chemists, however, have found a way
to extract the naphtha and kerosene
and leave the asphaltum almost pure
fof this new use. .
