 20 ft. high ; the gauge is rather 

 sheltered, but any iujurioas effect 

 can hardly arise.

 is on a very gentle slope towards the 

 Tay. 



In garden rather sheltered, but probably 

 not so much so as to vitiate the re- 

 sults. 



In a railed enelosiu'e, perfectly open in 

 all directions.

 high. Pipe into receiver nearly 1 -5 in. 

 in diameter ; will be reduced to -1 in.

 jar not accessible.
