Is there anything that will help keep the dust down in the barn with a dirt floor?

around these parts they use mag chloride as a de-icer as well as a de-duster. apparently for dust they dribble it on the dirt road and then mix up the dirt either by driving on it or blading the roadway. Seems to work for a few months and then needs repeating.
