STREET OILING IN POPULAR FAVOR.

MPonticello. Herald : Street owing is becoming very popular in Monticello and by another season it is likely to become general, at least on the stone streets. On graveled streets its success has not been demonstrated here yet. Owing to the looser . quality ot the material on graveled streets they will naturally absorb more oil and for that reason oiling will be more expensive there than on the stone streets, but oil is said to be a great packing agent and road preservative even on gravel.
