ASPINWALL AVE.. BROOKLINE, MASS., MADE DUSTLESS WITH “TARVIA A 
TARVIA PREVENTS DUST 
AND SA VES THE ROADWAYS 
Tarvia is a coal tar pitch preparation in liquid form which prevents dust on macadam roads. 
The dust problem has assumed such gigantic proportions that the simple expedient of 
sprinkling is no longer satisfactory. More effective measures have become necessary, and in 
Tarvia a solution has been found. 
Its cost per mile is less than water sprinkling, as a tarviated road will remain dustless for an 
entire season after one treatment. Other methods of suppressing dust are only temporary. 
Tarvia is permanent. 
Oil or water sprinkling makes a dirty, muddy, unsightly road, while the Tarvia treatment 
leaves a smooth, beautiful roadway permanently dustless and never unsightly or muddy. 
In addition to preventing dust, Tarvia also adds materially to the life of the roadway, as it 
bonds the surface of the macadam together so that it will not tear loose or pulverize under traffic. 
Road engineers, taxpayers and real estate owners should look into the subject. 
Illustrated booklets, showing roads all over the country which have been made dustless with 
Tarvia, mailed free on request.
