adjective 
  1. Of or pertaining to powder.
1872 We were plowing through great deeps of alkali dust that rose in thick clouds and floated across the plain like smoke from a burning house. We were coated with it like millers; so were the coach, the mules, the mail-bags, the driver -- we and the sage-brush and the other scenery were all one monotonous color.
