ODD PHENOMENON
Tells Why Ball Dropped from Tower Top
Moves Eastward in Falling.

: phere. and, in order to clarity the
principle, we suppose that resis-
lance to be eliminated.
In falling, therefore, the ball ex-
periences two simultaneous forces.
one teLding to carry It from A
to Al, and the other to pull it
straight down to the earth. BY
the principle of the composition
of simultaneous forces the ball In
enabled to obey both at the same
time. It goes as far eastward as
the first force. acting alone, would
have carried 1t in the time elapsed.
and it also goes as far downward
as the other force gravity, acting
alone, would have carried it In
that same time.
It's actual path, therefore. must
be that from A to AZ. But notice
that Az is we'll in advance, or to
the east, Of the place B1, to which
the rotation OF the earth has car
ried the foot of the tower while
the bali was falling.
But II you should try the ex-
pertinent from the top Of tower
only a few hundred feet high, you
might conclude that our man at
A was right after all In thinking
that the ball would fall straight
to the foot Of his tower. Theory
makes the deviation for a fall ct
500 feet only an inch or so, while
many actual experiments have
given diverse results because OF
air resistance and air currents.
But the philosopher, like the
great business man, considers
things in the large and thus learns
laws and principles that are con-
cealed from the shortsighted.

foot If the tower. along the dotted
line. But If so he will be disap-
pointed, and his disappointment,
him q philosopher, and perhaps a
college professor.
Let us see the source Of his
mistake. The top OF the tower
being a part of the earth as
much as the top Of a mast is a
part Of a ship, must move along
with the earth The earth is ro-
tating and the tower has to turn
with it. But. if it wants to keep
out of trouble with the Volstead
act it must maintain an upright
position, which it can only do by
keeping it's head in line with it's
feet, and its feet in line with the
center of the earth.
This requires that the top Of
the tower shall move from A to
Al while the bottom of it is NOV
ing from B to B1. That is the
same as saying that all parts of
the tower must move around the
earth's center at the same angu-
lar velocity with which the solid
earth moves.
But, while the angular velocity
is the same, the actual, or linear,
velocity. e., the number of feet
moved per seconds greater at
the top A than at the bottom 3.
The diagram shows this without
wasting Words-it is farther from
A to Al than from b to B1.
Now, before the ball is dropped
it moves with the same velocity
az that of the man who holds it,
When he let's so of it, it retains
the velocity in the direction A to
Al that it had before. Gravity
pulling it downward does not in
terfere at all with the motion
around the earth's center that the
ball had before it started falling
The only thing that would inter-
fere Is the resistance Of the atmos.

Cost of Lifting Oil

The bureau Of mines says that from
20 to 90 per cent of the total cost Of
producing petroleum may be charged
to lifting the oil. Although the lifting
cost ranges from less than three cents
a barrel at flowing wells, producing
several hundred barrels a day, to So
a barrel, at wells producing less than
a fifth of a barrel a day, the lifting
cost per well may range from more
than $1,000 at large flowing wells Of
the type recently discovered in Okla
homa, Texas, Arkansas and California.
to less than SO at many of the old
wells pumped only few hours week,
as in most of the oil fields Of New
York and PENNSYLVANIA, where the
average daily production per well per
day is less than one-fourth Of a barrel.
