State Road, Watertown, Mass., Built With Tarvia X 



Adding to the Life of Macadam 



Tarvia is to the fine stone of a macadam road exactly what cement is to concrete. 

 It is a powerful binder, filling the voids while fluid and then solidifying and forming 

 a tough adhesive matrix about the stone. The adhesion of Tarvia to stone is perfect. 

 When the fine screenings that constitute a macadam surface are agglomerated with 

 Tarvia the suction of automobile wheels will not tear them loose in the form of dust. 

 The life of the roadway is thereby greatly prolonged and the dust nuisance abated. 



Without Tarvia the top surface of ordinary macadam will not last a year under 

 automobile travel, and the dust nuisance is intolerable. The swift wheels suck the 

 fine powder out of the roads and scatter it far and wide, stripping the lower courses 

 of stone of their cushion, after which frost and the percolation of water quickly ravel 

 the road. Continual resurfacing is so expensive that many road authorities have had 

 to let the highways remain without surfacing, merely contenting themselves with 

 repairing the worst breaks. 



Tarvia makes macadam able to withstand automobile travel, makes the roadway 

 dustlcss and costs less than the expense of maintaining a road which has not been 

 tarviated.
