    • Description: This view of Staniford Road shows the thorough mixing of the pavement materials after the dry mixing of the cement and the addition of water. Note the work of the power grader along the gutter line where the blade has removed the materials for the full depth of the thickness of the gutter. Power grader can be seen in the distance as well as the asphalt distributor used in applying the water. The tractor and heavy duty double 8 inch disc harrow shown in the foreground did a very satisfactory job in mixing. Work by Burlington Street Dept. Undated but may be 1942.
