The foot is divided into alternate black and white spaces, each representing 

 half a tenth of a foot. All the figures, both those indicating the 

 feet and those indicating tenths of a foot, are on the same side of the 

 scale. The object of this is to obtain more ground surrounding the 

 figures, as on this condition their visibility in a great measure depends. 



The forms of the figures have been carefully studied. The figures denoting 

 tenths of a foot, are small. It was found that those usually employed 

 are needlessly large. The size now adopted is the result of trial at 

 10 chains, at which distance they can be easily read with a good 

 14-inch 'Telescope. Price per pair, 880
