Th EartK'a fturfao. j The lurface of the earth can hm ompared to tho top of a barrel of 'asphalt, hard and rieid through and
tnroogn, 6eamed and cracked on the urface by the element. For ten miles ia a straight line below the surface the carta is probably .dry and hard, of rock substance. The pressure of this substance upon the heated center of the earth keeps it from getting hotter than it is, Just as you can keep water from boiling by an appropriately sufficient pressure. The fact that there ia steam in volcanic eruptions is the leakage cf the interior pressure of heat in the earth. The character of matter in the center of the earth or its immediate environment must be something like pumice stone spongy, porous, lirrht because when the
jearth's interior matter is melted in ,tho high temperatures that are .there it dissolves, and there is considerable water in it that escapes 'through volcanic craters in steam. Professor llallockColumbia Un
