ENTRANCE TO BRANCH BROOK PARK, NEWARK, N, J,, ROADS CONSTRUCTED WITH TAR VIA X 
Meets Modern Road Requirements 
Tarvia is a powerful binder for the surfaces 
and foundations of macadam roads. It fills 
the voids and locks the stone in a tough, dur¬ 
able, plastic matrix. 
A tarviated surface looks like sheet asphalt 
and is equally dustless and clean. It sheds 
water readily and is dry immediately after the 
rain, so that pedestrians are not inconveni¬ 
enced. The surface never gets muddy or dusty. 
On account of the Tarvia matrix, these roads 
will bear heavy traffic' becausp the sur¬ 
face yields, instead of pulverizing under the 
strains. The Tarvia matrix prevents internal 
movement and grinding. The plasticity of the 
Tarvia also makes these roads very quiet. 
Horses’ hoofs make almost no sound on a Tar¬ 
viated road. Tarvia is waterproof, and 
tarviated roads, therefore, are protected 
against damage from torrents on grades. 
Tarvia has no odor except when being ap¬ 
plied. After it hardens, it has no injurious 
effect on shoes, clothing or vehicles. The cost 
of using Tarvia is not a factor or consideration, 
because it has been repeatedly demonstrated 
that it is cheaper to maintain a dustless road 
with Tarvia than a dusty one without it. 
Maintenance economies more than balance 
the additional cost.
