The idea was not practical and was never carried out. In 1875 and 1876, some experiments were made by Lieutenant Manzi Michele, but they were not favourably received. To Major General Annibale Ferrero, Director of the Geographical Military I nstitute, is due the credit of initiating the ordnance photographic surveys of the present day. Their execution was entrusted to engineer L. Pio Paganini with a staff of able assistants. The work of the institute is very remarkable and deserves careful study. In A ustria, the first important surveys were made by Mr, Vincenz Pollack, chief engineer of the state railways. Some beautiful mountain maps have lately been printed by Giesecke and Devrient, of Leipzig, for the German and Austrian Alpine club. They are the work of S. Simon. He made use of the original ordnance survey, filling in the topographical details from photographs. These maps represent one of the most successful applications of photographic surveying. Schiffner sand Steiner swritings on the subject are among the best, and the Austrian instrument makers, sich as R. Lechiier or Starke and Kammerer, have surveying cameras of many patterns to select from. It is in Canada that the method has received its most extensive application; it was first employed when the surveys of Dominion lands were extended to the Rocky Mountains. In the prairies, our operations are limited to defining the boundaries of townships and sections; these lines form a network over the land by means of which the topographical features, always scarce in the prairies, are sufficiently well located for general purposes. In passing to the mountains, the conditions are entirely different. The topographical features are well marked and numerous ;the survey of the section lines is always difficult, often impossible, and in most cases useless. The proper administration of the country required a tole
