Estimating the worlds population as
1,5OO.OOO.OOO. the whole human race at
present living could stand comfortao bly,
shoulder to shoulder in an area Of 500
square miles
Taking the number Of generations in
the past 6O00 years as 200. the room
taken by them all on the above plan
would only be half the size Of Ger
many. or less than the area of the state
Of Colorado To bury all the people
on earth would require graveyard a
little larger than that area.
II the dust left BY each body be est-
mated at one-tentb Of cubic yard.
which is a liberal estimate. 1t would
cover only forty square miles to a
depth of about three feet. This GER
tainly seems insignificant. it is pointed
out. compared With the great coral
reefs and other immense deposits built
up by the shells Of tiny mollusks.--
