Mifnn I fH ■■/:;■;■;/, ■■i.7.:i MM -• , -...•■., HII m AUTOMOBILE traffic on macadam roads has in many cases confronted road/A authorities with new problems of maintenance. These heavy high-speed vehicles, with their destructive tires, give to ordinarymacadam a harder test than it was designed to endure. The top surface is pulverized andthe dust nuisance, intolerable both to automobilists and other users of the roadway,is the result. An answer to the problem has been found in Tarvia. Tarvia acts as a waterproofbinder of the macadam. It forms a hard, dustless surface which ordinary automobiletraffic cannot injure. The Boston Department of Parks reports that the average cost per square yard ofmaintenance of macadam for 1903, 1904 and 1905 was .116, or nearly $1,000 per mile offifteen foot roadway. This estimate includes watering, repair of roads and cleaning.Tarvia will save a large proportion of such cost and make the road dustless as well. The above photograph shows
