Canadian Tar Sands Tested for Roads

In the far Athabasca country of western Canada, famous in stories of the Royal North West Police, tar sands are being mined to make roads of a new kind in the Jasper National Park, Alberta.

Over gravel roads, the bituminous sands are spread to a depth of about two inches and form a layer similar to asphalt. These sands deposits along the Athabaska River have long been thought to contain possibilities for road building, but this is the first practical test to which they have been subjected
