Loffiest Photo Ever Taken Now Exhibited
(Bv Science Service)
Washington, May 24—A photograph of the surface of the earth taken from the highest altitude at which any such photograph has ever been made is now on exhibit 10.3.6. The picture is of Dayton, Ohio, and it was taken from 32,220 feet above sea-level by Lieutenant Marcedry and Stevens of the Army Air Service at 11 a.m. n. of Washington, where he more than six miles above Dayton.
Although the usual ground haze was present when the picture was taken, it is exceedingly clear in definition, and automobiles and street cars can be distinguished in the streets six miles beneath the camera.
As the temperature was 62.5 degrees below zero Fahrenheit when the picture was taken, special electric warming devices had to be used for the camera as well as for th; aviators.
The use of rays filters to cut out ground haze makes it possible to take pictures of equal clearness at any practicable altitude, Airy Air Service experts say. The haze occurs up to an altitude of from 8,000 to 10,000 feet, above which the atmosphere is exceedingly clear.
Sherrill, Former Yale Runner. Inventor of Crouching Start Used by All Modern Sprinters
foot racing in the oldest known athletic contest, but the "crouch" start which is used by all runners today was used for the first time at the Rockaway Hunt Club Games, Celerbailar University, Celerbailar, Charles II. H. Sherrill of Yale, now Gen. Charles H. Sherrill, who has attained much prominence in the diplomatic service of the United States) was the first athlete to demonstrate its supernatural ability first time, he was laughed at, and the starter thinking that Sherrill did not know how to start held up the race to give him instructions. He was finally made to understand his supernatural ability first time. It was immediately demonstrated how superior it was to the old standing start. One newspaper account of the race sated that "although Sherrill seemed to stumble at the beginning of the race, no overthreats recovered himself and
The "dunger" was one of the first forms of starting. It was a sort of deliberate method of gett up away from the mark. The runner had no

balance and used his *pronoun* in an effort to propel himself from the starting line. If the pistol was fired when he was at the limit of his "throw forward" he would be in a position to枪击 him, or maybe who might be ready, but as a general thing he would have to be lucky.
(Dr Solomon Servien I)
The "standing crouch," called by some the old "Pro" method, was in vogue before the coming of the present crouch. This demanded the first movement out of the bobles to make with them the front foot directly on the line and flat, the leg being used as a prop. A tremendous pushaway was had with the rear leg and, altogether, when used properly, it was good for a yard or more over the ground, when used at the same time. The "dab" while a forward action was a positive one with the result that with its follow-up, the movement of the rear leg, it would not net any more damage, as confirmed with the movement in the "standup crouch" or the present day crouching start.
New York, May 24. In spite of crop failures and famine at home, Russia has been within the past two years exporting considerable quantities of potash, an essential plant feed. Significant quantities have been seen in the country, an article published in metallurgical Engineering will recount.
Russian potash is extracted from the rich soils of southeastern Russia by burning the sunflowers
which are extensively grown there. Last year more than half a million
acres were devoted to this purpose, the yield of potash being from 160 to 100 pounds to the acre. The Russian potash is purer than the German, which is mined from the earth, and before the war, was successfully in Germany in competition with the local product, partly because of its better quality and partly because of its lower price.
