Tarvia in a Residential Park 
I N Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is a beau- 
tiful residential park known as 
Ridgewood. The original owners of 
the property were anxious to secure 
clean,. dustless, attractive roadways 
at minimum expense. Something 
better than dusty water-bound ma- 
cadam was desired. They decided to 
try tarviated macadam; that is, ma- 
cadam built with Tarvia as a binder. 
The following letter from the 
owners of the property was written 
after an experience of several years: 
Cedar Rapids, la., June 6, 1911. 
Upon the advice of our landscapers, we constructed 
tar filled macadam paving in our landscaped resi- 
dential park in Cedar Rapids, known as Ridgewood, 
using Tarvia therefor. 
We believe it to be especially appropriate for a 
property of this character. These streets are in good 
condition and are perhaps the most used of any 
pleasure drives in or about the City and we thinkiare 
considered among the best. 
Yours very truly, 
(Signed) Malcolm V. Bolton & Co. 
Tarvia is a dense, viscid coal tar 
product which fills the voids in the 
macadam and encloses the stone in a 
tough, durable matrix which, when 
worn by traffic, resembles sheet as- 
phalt and is equally clean and dust- 
less. It is free from dust and mud 
and dries after a shower as quickly 
as a city pavement. 
Booklets regarding Tarvia will be 
sent free on request. Address our
