millions of bushels that go to the

the vines, often cured as hay, feed

roots of the plant, which furnishes

How Old Mother Earth Hides Her Age

!. -e Of the Earth" from a more philo
sophical point of view,
The age of the earth always has
been a subject for discussion among
men of science and largely without
any definite agreement among the
representatives of the different
branches of studies on account of the
different points of attack.
Briefly, the more recent discussions
as to the earth's age have placed the
time as follows:
Lord Kelvin. In 1853, estimated the
earth's age at 100000 to 100000
and perhaps 9S,Oo0,000 years.
Clarence King and Carl Barus, In
1888, placed the age at 24.OOO,OOO
years.
Lord Kelvin in 1907 revised his fig
ures from 20,0O0,000 to 4o.OO0.O00
years.
De Lapparent, in 1890, said it was
$1,000, 900 to 90,O00,000 years.
Charles D. Walcott, secretary Of the
Smithsonian institution, In 1898, placed
the maximum age at 100000 years.
]. Jolly, In 1899, estimated the age
of the ocean at 80,000,000 to 90,eO0.00G
years.

age of the ocean at 80,000,000 to 150,'
