Duvall is oiling the street in front of his residence. A number of property owners in different parts of the city have done likewise, and it is probable that other property owners will follow suit. Some of the property owners living on the street leading to the depot are talking of oiling that street, as the dust at times is almost unbearable. ' Farmers near Goodland are talking of Ailing their stone roadß as an economic measure. If oil prevents making dust it will also prevent loss of road material by wear. The indications are that in the near future not only the streets of a town will be treated with oil, but the country roads as well, which are constantly becoming more severely taxed by automobiling.
