What Stand On.
The density of the earth as a whole
has been estimated, with close agree
ment among the scientists who have
made the determination by different
methods, to be about J)..", or five anil a
half times as heavy as an equivalent
sphere of water. Ou the other hand, the
average density of the materials form
ing the accessible parts of the enrth's
crust Is betweeu 2.5 and 3. so that the
mean density of the whole globe Is
about twice that of It outer part.
This Indicates that the centrnl pnrt of
the earth is composed of heavier mate
rials and may even be metallic, which
condition, says the Engineering and
Mining Journal, would accord perfectly-with
the nebular hypothesis.
