PAGE SIX THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1925 ROAD TESTS ARE W. J. Culver, county road mas ter, returned today from a wetk'B trip tliroiiRU as turn Oregon, with J. H. Scott, market road engine? for the Htute highway commission, inspecting over 250 milea of oiled macadiim road laid in . various parts of the eastern portion of the state as experiments to ascertain the value of that type of road un der all sorie of weather and traf fic conditions. The main result of the trip Is that ltoad master Culver will rec ommend to the county court the adoption of similar experiments on a euial scale iu the carrying out of the market road highway pro gram for this county. Road maa tor Culver declares that the results are good with the ex periments so fur put on In eastern Or aeon and that highway officiate are becoming fii'tisillcd that this sort of a road will meet the high way problem in eastern Oregon un til traffic becon.es so heavy as to demand a heavier typo, of pavo mcu t. The road master believes that the oiled macadam roads can be mnde to meet Lho situutlon here on road 3 where traffic iu lighter and that it presents many advan tages in addition to the low cost as compared to lavy pavement costs. "Experiments cn oiled macadam In eastern Oregon have been car ried on by tit a highway commis sion over a period ot three years, ' stated Ilia roadmaiier. "The pur pose is to treat nucudam with fuol oil, from 75 to H'O barrels of fuel oil being put on to a mile of ma cadam. The results had are good. After tho oil has ponetratcd it gives much the oppearanco ot a blacktop, pavement and in many p luces we found it hard to distin guish this type of road from the blacktop type of faveniout. "Wo tried the plan here in 1915 G and made some little progress when tho war came along and compelled us to shut off the work as the fuel oil was needod by the government for war purposes. "It is -jay plan to recommend to the county court that we try ft out to a small extent during the coming year and continue to mnhe further experiments until the value of it is determined. I will favor putilng it cn macadam that Is a year or two old. While it can be put on directly onto a new road, I believe it is better to let the road set until its inequalities come but and can bo remedied before put ting on tho oil. The oil penetrates the surface for about three quarters of an inch and forms a i hard crust on top, Tho road can be repaired at little cost when it pits out, repair eun be mado In any kind of weather, and the road doesn't run in hotweailier HKe blacktop.

That's the only way. to get the "Quaker flavor" .the old Scotch flavor that you want WHAT you want In oats Is flavor. Everything else takes 6econd place. Oats originally a Scotch dish tnust have true Scotch flavor to be at its best real "Quaker" flavor. Nobody has yet succeeded In Imi tating Quaker flavor. That enticing and toasty Scotch tang of the Quaker brand. People who ordinarily dont take to oats, find delight in that unique flavor. Once you taste It, you are spoiled for ordinary oats- So when asked to"try" a 8ubstltute,say "NO." That flavor la not the result of guesswork but of certain Quaker milling processes applied to th finest, plumpest oats that grow.
