The action of salt in road . sur, ace s
appears to be quite, different to that
of "calcium . chloride, 'Which 'depends
upon its hydroscapicity to maintain
moisture in the road for Aust preven-
tion.. . - The change effected' in a road sur-
face by the application of salt does
not appear to be well understood, and
it is: the `subject of a great deal of in-
vestigation at the present time. It is
contended that the moisture films be-
tween the. -particles-aim..made thinner,
permitting greater Compaction, and
thus mere density.
An important feature is that. salt
restricts the extent to which clay ex-
pands and contracts' under changing
moisture condition, and it may be that
this is the most. -important influx nee
exerted. Although not apparent to
the eye, there is no doubt that mois-
ture is retained in a salt treated road
longer than in an untreated road, bit
such a road owes its dustless, charact-
er principally to the density whi;'h it
assumes.
Scrape Roads in Rain
A salt treated road dries mu • _1
„quicker after a rain than an untreated
road, or- a road treated with cal: iurn
chloride, so that the 'period for blade
maintenance is very short. It tyoul i
appear to be advisable to scrape there
roads in the rain, at'thnes, so quick.]"
does the road harden when dry. Not
much bidding, however, is needed, as a
road that required scraping dally,
,prior to tale treatment, would; requir,:
such operations at intervals of thr•:%e
weeks more or less, depending 'on
weather conditions.
The salt will be retained on the
road for a long time, since very littie
water will soak through the surface.
It will probably require renewal : r ,ri
time to time, possibly by adding five
to ten tons every second year by
sprinkling over the surface . of the
road when damp.
Common specifications for gravels
for stabilized roads apply when salt is
used.
Bases Stabilize Themselves
An examination of the base of gra-
vel roads, that have been Carrying
traffic for some time, will show that
there is present a greater percentage
of forty mesh material than wet c•ri-
ginally placed, and as they are hard
and dense, it 'must be concluded that
such bases stabilize themselves to
some extent. On this account, 1 da not
feel that base stabilization of old gra-
vel toads is advantageous. There wafl
considerable Concern locally, relative
to the use of salt on the roads, t,s to
its effects on cars, but,, while I have
made inquiry, 1 have not learned of
any de,%'nitetses, .Q 0.19. -lapse Mums
. ting rust_on a vehicle,._ Thie,:i think.Y
is largely due to the improved .paint-
ing on the modern cars. "-° '
Big Field For Salt.
While stabilization} of roads, using
calcium chloride and salt, Is a great
improvement over those of ordinary
gravel, such roads have Borne of the
short comings of gravel roads, in that
they require patching and • scrapin,s
,frein time to time and since after pros
longed wet weather, the top surface
becomes somewhat softened and par-
tieles,,will splatter en passing cars. On
this account it is not expected that
heavily travelled roads clan ba best
served with such a -surface only. The
legical step after Stabilization is to
cover with a low cost bituminous sur-
face, which may not require couch
depth. There are thousands of mites
of other lightly travelled roads, 'how-
ever, on -Which people reside, who are
subjected to anuch dust, tensed by the
few cars that . pas by. This is the
big .field, in which, 1 believe, salt
treated stabilized material will fired
its greatest use.
No doubt, clay and gait will be ad-
ded at the crushing plants to much of
the road grve1 produced in the futrzre
which can be done with a . email
amount of added effort. The Counts
of Huron is underlaid -with great salt
beds throughout, and there will be
plenty of this local ntiaferial for use
on the roads. •
Patented in Canada ' `
A patent, affecting the ase of salt
roads, has been inssued in Canada,

that any of the terms of the patent
