September 26, 1913. Page 1.<br/>—-<br/>Mr. M. N. McDowall who made a trip to Toronto recently to make a study of methods of road construction there does not give a very encouraging report as to the efficacy of raw tar for the macadam roads. His report, which was submitted to the council on Monday night, was as follows:-</p><p>I beg leave to report that I made inquiry in Toronto as to tar macadam. I went to the city hall and had an interview with Mr. Scott, the engineer of road improvements, and also works as commissioner. When asked if they were doing any work in the city with tar they informed me that there had been no tar macadam put down for six or seven years as they found it to be a failure in its crude state. That which was seen was Tarvia and was mistaken for tar, the Tarvia being very satisfactory. They advised me to go the Parliament buildings and see Mr. McLean, engineer of roads and highways. When asked if they would rather have tar in its crude state with the macadam in the old way, they said that they would not recommend it in its crude state for macadamized road. I then went to see Mr. McLean at the Parlia- ment buildings and had a very pleasant interview with him. He also spoke in much the same strain as to tar in its crude state. He said when it was refined it had been very satisfactory. He recommended me to go to Guelph to see how they were using it as they refined it there at the gas plant, and were using it with very good results. I then went to see some brick pavings for crossings and saw a number of samples of brick and wood pavements and by the advice of some of the parties I came in contact with I went to West Toronto. There I went to the works of the Ontario Paving and Brick Co., and think it is very good material that these bricks turn out, for our crossings. I brought a sample with me and by the advice of the committee purchased thirteen thousand at thirty-one dollars per thousand, laid down in Owen Sound. They have arrived and are being laid down and a stone curb placed outside the block and it appears to make a very nice crossing.</p>
