Oil Prevents Sand Dunes
Shifting on New Roads

One serious obstacle to improved
road building, particularly in the
Northwest, has been the shifting sand
dunes which up a highway soon
after it is completed, and to remedy
this evil the bureau of public roads
of the Department of Agriculture has
resorted to the spraying of the sand
with oil. Fifty-three miles Of con
struction of the Columbia river high
way from The Dalles eastward lie
through sandy country in many places
of a volcanic ash as light as flour. AS
fast as cuts are opened up and fills
made in this light soil the wind whips
out the fill slopes and sand dunes
creep into rock cuts, completely block
ing the road. Oil is the only agency
yet found to stop the trouble.
The equipment used to spray the
crude oil consists of two supply tanks,
or drums, In which the oil Is carried
from the storage tank at the railway
siding, and a tractor. which draws
the oiling rig and supplies the steam
through a hose to the compressor
tank, which is carried on a trailer.
The oil is heated by the steam and
forced through a hose with a nozzle
consisting of a half-inch pipe. The
steam atomizes the oil and sends 1t in
a fine spray for 100 feet or more, de-
pending on whether the spray Is pro-
jected in the direction of the wind or
against it. For obvious reasons, spray
ing is usually carried on in the d.
rection of the wind. Where sufficient
oil is used this means of controlling
the sand dunes is very effective, and
it is believed that the cost will moi
be excessive.

PLAN FOR BUILDING
TANK FOR GASOLINE
Fuel Can Then Be Obtained at
Wholesale Price.

Gasoline can be obtained at the
wholesale price only when a storage
tank of SO gallons capacity is avail
able. With such a tank 1t is possible
to buy directly from dealers at a cost
usually about three cents a gallon less
than the retail price. When a tank OF
this size, with the necessary fittings, is
purchased, the cost is so great, how
ever, that it uses up the saving in cost
that will be made later. But a tank
that will serve every purpose can be
constructed cheaply.
The one illustrated al be built for
about $40, including tank, pump, hose.
and casing. A 80 or 55-gallon oil
drum, which can be bought second
hand for from 81 up, forms the tank.

ALL RIGHT FOR THAT WORK
Rheumatism No Handicap to Tailor
Who Measured Modern Girl for
Her Bathing Costumes.

Mrs. Carrie Jacobs Bond, whose
song, "A Perfect Day." has sold over
four million copies, said to a friend
on a New York pier:
81 am old-fashioned, as my songs
show, and l must confess that the
bathing dresses worn by the girls of
England and France shock me.
81 heard on the boat a story about
a man who went tt a sporting goods
tailor to be measured for a pair of
golf knickerbockers.
Where's old Tapes, who used to
measure me?' the man asked. I liked
his work very much
Tapes said the tailor, got rheu-
matism and couldn't stoop low enough
to MEASURE for kniekerbockers.'
"fPoor feIlowI' said the customer.
What's he doing now?
"tOh, we transferred him to the la
dies department, said the tailor, and
he's measuring ladies now for swim

GOOD
HIGHWAYS
Road Design Is Feature
of Traffic Regulation

Traffic regulation is a problem of
road design and maintenance, in the
mind Of the highway engineer. Charles
J.. Bennett, Connecticut state highway
commissioner, told highway department
representatives Of 20 states at a con-
ference recently held at Harrisburg,
Pa. He spoke on the experience Of
the states in traffic regulation and
said the necessity for providing high
ways over which m%otorcars can travel
at all times Of the year must be the
first principle considered, Bennett said
that he Is selling service to the public
and the problem of traffic regulation as
connected with the design and mainte-
nance of the road is a very important
part of his work.
He advocated the widening Of roads,
particularly on curves and dangerous
points, to provide for emergency condi-
tions. He told the conference that
Connecticut has partially solved the
problem OF safety at such points by
placing a concrete strip in the center
of an asphalt road to divide traffic. He
said that a standard form Of signal
should be adopted for railroad cross
ings and advocated the use Of reflect
ing type signals for curves.
Overlooking of trucks was censured
by the speaker, who said that with the
constantly increasing use Of the motor
trucks and at times of congestion with
the necessity of concentrated use of
the motortruck, the temptation and
tendency is to overload, and a regula-
ton of this particular evil should be
drastic, severe. thorough and %continu-
ous.'
The regulation Of speed and opera
ton at dangerous points. he called a
matter of policing, saying I'VE should
be careful to SO define the limits of
truck and passenger car dimensions
that the highway engineer can intelli-
gently design his roads to furnish the
service which the public has a right to
demand in return for the expenditure
of such tremendous sums of money as
are being invested In the highway serv.

MANY ACCIDENTS
CAUSED BY HORN
Illogical Method of "Honking' Is
Serious Menace to Safety
of Traffic.

That the automobile horn Is equally
important as brakes in the prevention
Of motor accidents Is a fact which ap-
parently very few drivers recognize,
according to a bulletin on this subject
issued by the educational bureau Of
the National Motorists association.
There are many situations, In fact,
points out the National Motorists as
ISOLATION, where the horn alone must
be relied upon but without good judg-
ment in using 1t the driver cannot
hope for favorable results. The bulle-
tin says further:
Disregard for Horn.
Horning, as 1t is practiced at pres
emit, reveals animal instinct. The mo-
torist uses 1t as a signal Of approach
ing doom, just as though he and his
car were entitled to special privileges.
Accident reports, as analysed by the
National Motorists association, show
that such attitude on the part Of the
driver encourages an attitude Of re-
taliation and disinclination to make
concessions on the part Of other mo-
torists and pedestrians, with the re-
suit that they take their time about
getting out of the way. This may be
the markings of an accident If the
driver also happens to be depending
upon his horn for safety.
Impatient sounding Of the horn often
has the same effect, and If the driver
sounds his horn too loudly he may dis
concert a pedestrian, or frighten him
to the extent that he will change his
course of direction, hesitate and other
wise endanger himself. There r oc-
casions when It Is better not to use
the horn at all.
For most purposes q moderately
long blast Of the horn, sounded from
a suitable distance, Is to be preferred.
A short blast from the horn displays
either impotence or inexperience, to
either OF which pedestrians or other
motorists will foolishly pay less atten-
ton.
Suspicion of Loud Blast.
If the horn is sounded too loudly,
and too soon, the driver will be under
the same suspicion.
AS discovered by National Motor
lists association men investigating the
subject, the average driver does not
appreciate how often he is dependent
upon 100 per cen results from his
horning. There are many tight situa-
lions where failure of the pedestrians
to act upon the warning of the horn,
tor a too violent and Illogical response,
will put the driver in a position where
he is helpless to avoid an accident, re-
CARELESS of the use of his brakes and
clever steering.
II any motorist cares to discover
just how dependent he is upon effec-
tive use of his horn try the experiment
Of driving through traffic some day
without resorting to the horn. He will
find that he Is obliged to fall back
rather heavily upon his brakes and
steering.

Destruction of Roads
Due to Heavy Impacts

1t is agreed by experts who have
made numerous tests that the greater
part of the destruction of hard-sur-
faced roads is due to the heavy I'M
pacts of the motor wheels, and the
contention, which seems to be just,
has been that these trucks should pay
taxes high enough to insure the repair
of the roads in the proportion in which
they use them. Little damage is done
by the numerous pneumatic-tired
pleasure cars which travel these roads.
