$1.25 Ptvement.
Archie Mason, of Portland, a former
Salem man, says he can puti down hard
surface pavemant for $1.25 a square
yard, wher.e about $2.2j is now being
paid. He says:
"Whether the hard pavement now
being put down is called 'hasam,' or
bitulithic. it is in reality nothing
more than concrete mixed with a little
asphalt or lar to color it, as the dairy
men color butter, and can be laid tor
fully one-third less than the city is now
paying for it. The patent is what gives
the hard pavement its standing with
the city officials and is what the
property owners are paying for When
they pay aa high as $5' a running foot
for hard pavements down town."
Mason has already laid some of this
concrete pavement, to show for itself
