Air strata Over Cities.

The popular idea that the higher one
gets in the city air the purer the atmos.
phere becomes, has been disproved by
evidence given before select committee
on house of commons ventilation in Lon
don. 1t is found that the air of cities
like London, where soft coal is burned,
is purest at thirty or forty feet from the
ground. Lower than that the dust is
encountered and higher the smoke from
the chimneys.
These conclusions were arrived at
from experiments with frames of wood
covered with blanketing material put
at different elevations-oneo ON top of the
clock tower at Westminster, another on
the highest point of the roof and others
at various heights down to the court
yard. After five hours exposure there
were found to be more smuts at high
elevations than at low, but on the level
of the courtyard there were considera-
bic quantities or dust.
The inference from these experiments
is that the common notion that the high
est stories of the tallest blocks of fats
are desirable for their salubrity is apt to
be mistaken one, and that beyond forty
feet nothing is gained by going higher
unless very great height-some say 400
or 300 feet-is reached.
