Earth Erosion.

The surface of the United States is
being removed at the rate of thirteen
ten thousandths of an inch year,
or one inch in 760 years, according to
the United States geological survey.
Though this amount seems trivial
when spread over the surface of the
country. it becomes stupendous when
considered as total, for over 270000-
600 tons of dissolved matter and 513.-
600, 900 tons of suspended matter are
transported to tidewater every year
by streams of the United States. This
total of 7S3,000,00o tons represents more
than 350,o00,000 cubic yards of rock
