There are 2,333,OOO miles of public
roads in the United States, of which
only 262, 400 miles have any kind of
surfacing.
In other words, nearly 80 per cent
of our roads are dirt roads, and it
will be quarter Of a century, prob
ably, before this percentage is re-
duced to rs.
The great road problem Of the
United States is to grade, drain and
maintain these roads so as to make
them of the best practical use at a
minimum annual expense.
Some progress along these lines is
evident, and in some sections very
satisfactory earth roads have been
built and are maintained in good
condition, except for a few weeks in
spring, by intelligent dragging.
Another method Of maintenance
originating in California, is being
tried, with more or less success in 8
number of the Central States.
This is oiling the roads. Its pur.
pose is to suppress dust; for in so do
ing the road surface will remain
smooth longer than when the road il

come. 1t is something more than
merely pleasing to find at the en-
trance of town large signboard
with Welcome on it and another
board at the other end of town with
'Thank You, Come Again. or some
similar expression Of cordiality.
"I always want to stop in these
towns to eat or to rest, or to buy sup
plies; because feel that their towns
people are in sympathy with me as a
motorist-an I believe that such is
the feeling Of every motorist.
"But even more can be done to
welcome the motor traveller. Each
business man and citizen should go
out of his way to make the motorist
feel welcome, whether this spirit is
shown in the pleasantness with which
you direct the stranger, or in any
of the ways in which you can make
his stay in your city agreeable.

dusty, and there is less mud in wet
weather.
But oiling roads has to be done in
telligently, or it will make conditions
worse instead Of better.
1t is useless to oil dirt road which
is not properly drained and graded.
If the surface is uneven oil COL
lects in shallow depressions and soft
ems the surface, so that after the first
heavy rain the travel tends to make
mudholes.
If there is dust on the road the oil
combines with the dust to form sort
of mat, which quickly breaks up into
large flakes. or scales.
If the road is in proper condition
to receive the oil, and the right kind
of oil is used, the oil percolates into
the pores of the earth for depth of
several inches, sealing them with an
asphalt binding material which unites
the surface into a tougher mass than
the original surface.
The oil cannot make the road any
harder, for only stone or gravel will
accomplish that, but it will prevent

COAL OILS Use FOR
MOTORS IS PROBABLE
DAYS OF GASOLINE AS COM
MON COMBUSTIBLE Is NUM-
BERED SAYS EXPERT.

The widespread efforts to perfect
devices which will make the use of
kerosene as automobile fuel practi-
cable are responsible for the follow
ing editorial in "The Automobile:'
1t is not an easy problem in many
ways, but it is no harder than many
others that have been solved, and
there is reason to feel confident that
the days of gasoline are numbered;
at least for gasoline as the common
est auto fuel. So many inventors are
so near the kerosene carburetor that
will do anything that can be done with
gasoline that perfection cannot be far
off. A little merging of patent in
terests, little give and take between
the inventors and little really SYM
pathetic interest on the part of motor
car manufacturers are needed. Given
these three things and the problem is
solved.
If the matter is not tackled prompt
ly and squarely the European indus
tries will steal another march on the
American trade.

In these days when thousands Of
automobiles annihilate distance on the
good highways of Montana it is in
teresting to recall that the first
wheeled vehicle came to the state rs
years ago. Father DeSmet, the pio-
neer Jesuit priest brought one wagon
and four carts on his second expedl-
ton into the west in 1S41. The start
of the expedition was from St. Louis,
and the vehicles were drawn by oxen.
The difficulties Of this trip, over un-
broken trails, were of most discour-
aging character, but Father DeSmet
made the long trek and finally arrived
with his train at point near where
Stevensville, the Bitter Root town,
now stands. Father DeSmet left st.
Louis in the early spring and arrived
at Stevensville on September "a, the
journey lasting six months.
These vehicles were the first the
Indians had ever seen, and were the
occasion of much comment among the
red men. The oxen, too, were strange
beasts to them, and they were of the
impression that they were new
species of tame buffalo. Among tht
more hostile Indians the curiosit!
that the wheeled conveyances excited
had a good effect, and in their amaze
ment at this new machine of locomo
ton, crude as it was, but wonderful
to them, they forgot to make war OF
the little expedition.

Complete Loop the Best.

F.. When a gasoline feed pipe is
looped or otherwise bent in order to
avoid the rigidity and liability to
breakage of straight pipe, air locks
and consequent Interruptions of the
flow Of fue! are likely to occur after
filling the tank unless sufficient gas
cline is poured in to produce the pres
sure required to drive out the air that
will be trapped if the loop or band is
made in vertical plane. If the loop
is turned so as to lie horizontal, how
ever, there will be no such trouble.
incidentally complete loop is the
best safeguard against crystallization
and consequent breakage of the pipe

A suggestion for welcoming motor

out the value Of the passing motorists

suggests that local business men get
together and take action towards get

"Motorists bring business to the
towns they visit. They leave their
money with the garage man, the no
tel keeper, the druggist, the depart
ment store, the grocer, the meat mar
ket; in fact nearly every line of mer-
camille endeavor profits directly OF
indirectly through the motorist."
