This being promised, suppose that
at any point of the earth's surface a
plumb line is suspended, and from the
point of suspension another line is
stretched exactly toward the earth's
center. Except at the poles and on
the equator, the two lines will differ
in direction, the angle between them
increasing toward middle ATTITUDES
and having its greatest value at lati-
tude as deg. 05' 52'', where it amounts
to IL A" Or nearly fifth of degree.
The direction indicated by the plumb
line missed the center of the earth
by an amount which increases from
nothing at the poles and the equator
to its greatest value at latitude as deg.
OF 56'', where it equals half the diff
ference of the polar and equatorial
diameters, or 49, miles. Finally, all
buildings that are plumb las they
should be) lean at the top away from
the equator relatively to the line
drawn to the earth's center, and in
Montana this leaning amounts to near
ly one fifth Of a degree. S. G., Big

Answer to plumb line question Dec.
%, 1905.
Suppose the entire surface OF the
earth to be brought by cutting and
filling to one uniform level, so that
water placed anywhere on the sur
face would have no tendency to flow
in any direction. The earth would
then be an oblate ellipsoid of revolu-
tion, the length of its polar diameter
7,899.5S statute miles, and that OF
any equatorial diameter 1868 stat
ute miles. The actual form and size
of the earth differ but little from this,
since the elevations of mountains and
plateaus, and the depressions of val
legs and seas, are small compared with
the dimensions Of the earth as whole.
