HUGE POTASH SUPPLY. SHOWN BY EXPERTS.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 11.-Enough potash to supply the needs of the United States for nearly a thousand years, based on pre-war importa- tions, is contained In the green sands of New Jersey, the geological survey announced today Scarcity of pot ash for fertilizers due to the shutting off of German supplies during the World war caused the government to make an extensive investigation of the green sand mari belt of New Jersey and it's probable development as a source of supply.
 Moderate estimates place the quan tity of potash in that belt at 256,- 1000 short tons that could be mined from open pits. Several com panies have undertaken to produce potash from New Jersey green sand and some have marketed small quan- titles though none of the companies, the survey reports, is now actually producing.
 The green sand mari belt extends across New Jersey from the vicinity of Sandy Hook southwesterly to the Delaware river near Salem, dis tance of about 100 miles, It ranges in width from nearly fourteen miles in Monmouth county, to one mile or less in parts of Gloucester county. For more than 100 years these sands have been dug and marketed for use as fertilizer, and in the late sixties the quantity used amounted to nearly 1000, 900 tons annually. With the in reduction of prepared fertilizers the green sand mari industry gradually died, but here and there small quan- titles are still dug and used.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-Invention of an automobile equipped with four legs instead of wheels is claimed by James William Bryan, Washington man, who says he has 40 patents, some of them basic, for such ma chine. He has designed five-pas- senger elutchless, gearless and springless ear of half the weight Of wheeled models, which, he says. ex- pert engineers have declared feasi- ble. Tests are now being made to determine possible weaknesses and errors of construction.
 Declaring that he, and not Ger man inventor, who recently an- nounce1 production of walking" model. is the pioneer in the automo- bile wi-n-legs field, Bryan says his machine is operated by two engines developing 40 horse power and theoretically capable of making speed of S1 miles an hour. The legs have practically the same action as those of human beings, Bryan claims, and can negotiate a perpendicular rise or drop of one foot, without moving the automobile from hori Zontal plane.
