Thirteen American cities are to find | out how dirty they are. | Weather Bureau observers, | | operation with the American Society of | Heating and Ventilating Engineers, will | start in a few weeks a count of the dust | particles in the atmosphere of Wa ington, Denver. Boston, Salt Lake City, Cincinnati, Chicago, New York, St.| Louis, Memphis, Lincoln, Nebr.; Atlanta, | | Detroit and Pittsburgh. The investiga- | {|tion later will extend to seven more cities, The study will be carried out by af new method by which only the larger | particles will be counted. Experimental dust counts hitherto have been made with great accuracy by means of appa- | ratus involving a high-power micro- scope, with which it was possible to| determine all impurities in the atmos- | phere more than one micron In | diameter, or one millionth of a meter City vs. Country. This fine count is considered unnec v, however, in making a comp: tudy of American cities, becau: greater number of dust particles tained in city air, in comparison with | country air, comprises large particles. There is a certain minimum of fine urities even in the purest country | The r by which only the coarser particles collected from a cer- | tain volume of air on a microscope | cover glass will be counted, will enable these counts to be made much more rapidly. In each city it is planned to sei up apparatus in several quartel with “the co-operation of the local | calth authorities. All will be in the | charge of the local weather observer. Weather Bureau officials expect to| find & notable difference in the atmos- | pheric impurities of the larger cities. uch a city as Pittsburgh is expected | i@ to show a far higher percentage of dust particles than Denver or Sali! Lake City. Range of Variations. The per cent of atmospehric dus previous experiments have shown. in- creases very rapidly between open coun- | try, suburbs and city. The air over the farming section about Washington con- | tains only about 2,000 particles per | cubic inch. mostly finelv powdered | mineral matter picked up by the wind In the neighborhood of American Uni- versity where there is a Weather | Bureau station, there are about 30,000 | particles per cubic inch. Downtown | there are 115000 particles. Five times | this number has been found in some cities where observations by the fine count method have been taken. i — |PIPE PIERCING SOILS { | FORMS EARTH BATTERY | | Bureau of Standards Demonstrates | | Theory by Measurements in 0il Line Corrosions.
