A road in the Metropolitan Park System, Boston, built with Tarvia X. 
Send for New Booklet 
We have recently issued a new and beauti¬ 
fully illustrated booklet, detailing the ex¬ 
perience of many town authorities and road 
engineers with Tarvia. 
It shows how in one case after another 
Tarvia was first tried on experimental 
strips, frequently in competition with other 
materials. Then after the experience of a 
year or so, all other dust layers and road 
binders were discarded and Tarvia was 
used more and more extensively. 
Some engineers have adopted the broad 
policy of using Tarvia in all new macadam 
construction. Many road authorities go 
still further and aim to treat all the old 
macadam roadways with Tarvia to preserve 
them against the destructive effect of auto¬ 
mobile traffic and prevent dust.

We want property owners to know that 
a dusty road is not merely a nuisance to 
them but is an endless burden upon them 
as taxpayers—because dust means that the 
macadam is pulverizing and the surface 
blowing away. 
We want property owners to realize that 
the road authorities of their town can give 
them comparatively dustless macadam 
roads at little or no extra cost. 
We want road engineers to realize that 
they can reduce their maintenance costs 
by bonding their roads with Tarvia, and 
that the saving in maintenance will gener¬ 
ally pay for the Tarvia application. 
We therefore urge everyone interested to 
send for our booklet to nearest office.
