First edition. 11" x 8 1/2" in light gray printed wrappers with raised title in green. 16pp. [273]-286. Illustrations. Foreword.

Also laid in Bulletin 19-B, Western Dump Wagon, which touts their Western Dump Wagons, with steel-reinforced and extra wide wheels. In 1901, the Western Wheeled Scraper Co. and the F.C. Austin Manufacturing had formed a selling corporation known as Austin-Western Road Machinery Co. The company specialized initially in building scrapers. In 1916, President Wilson signed the Federal Aid Road Act enabling America to embark on a truly national highway and road construction campaign that continued to the end of the 1920s.
