Boilers to be used on Saturdays for mixing tarred granite, chippings, etc., for repairs. "(13) Cleaning Boilers, etc. — Screw heads to ends of sprayer to be removed whenever necessary, and the pipe well scraped through and cleaned by means of an iron rod fitted with a worm-thread or a wire rose-head. " (14) Generally. — Every care must be taken to reduce ob- struction to traffic and local inconvenience to a minimum. In- structions as to widths and lengths to be tarred, etc., must be strictly fo...llowed." In a communication to "Practical Road Engineering," published by St. Bride's Press, Ltd., Mr. Thomas gave some further very useful information with regard to road tarring. For instance, he says, inter alia, that, as a rule, he tarred only a width of about 1 2 ft. of the surface of a road, as he found this was sufficient for the majority of the traffic. This ap- peared to take about 1,090 gallons of tar per mile of road. He says he does not sand or dust with stone chippings on comple- tion of the tarring, as he considers that a more lasting and solid surface is produced without this addition.
