powdery
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. " Mark Twain, Roughing It, http://etext.virginia.edu/etcbin/ot2www-pubeng?specfile=/texts/english/modeng/publicsearch/modengpub.o2w&act=surround&offset=153632345&tag=EAF504&query=+powdery&id=eaf504 Chapter 21.
