Chapel Hill, K C, October 1, 1917.

To His Excellency, Hon. T. W. Bickett,

Governor of North Carolina.

Sir : —I have the honor to transmit herewith for publication a re- port on "The Altitudes of North Carolina" as Bulletin 27 of the publications of the North Carolina Geological and Economic Survey. The compilation of this report was begun a number of years ago, as the need for having such data in available form has long been felt; and it is believed that this bulletin will serve a most useful purpose. Respectfully, Joseph Hyde Pratt, State Geologist.

PREFACE

It lias long been realized by those having charge of the Geological Survey that the assembling of a list of the elevations of North Caro- lina was very desirable, not only in connection with the work of the Survey, but for the use of officials connected with the Department of Agriculture, Experiment Station work, and Department of Health; as well as of individuals whose interests involved questions relating

to climate, soils, etc. In this report, the compilation of which has extended over a num- ber of years, an effort has been made to include all available data from

whatever source ; and the height given is in feet above sea level.

The sources from which this information has been derived are as follows: Reports and topographic maps of the Geo- logical Survey; charts of the United States Coast and Geodetic Sur- vey; reports of the United States Signal Service; Weather Bureau reports ; Kerr's Map of North Carolina ; A Dictionary of Elevations and Climatic Register of the United States, by J. M. Toner, M.D. A Dictionary of Altitudes of the United States, compiled by Henry

Gannett ; articles from the American Journal of Science, by Profes- sor Guyot; and lists compiled by Yeates and Montgomery. Eleva- tions determined by railroad levels are credited to the roads by which they were furnished, and below is a list of the roads and the abbrevia- tions used for them

There are two lists, which are arranged as follows

1. In the first column the arrangement is made alphabetically, by places. Column two gives a description of the station, as city, town, village, postofnce, railroad station, crossroads, church, schoolhouse, mountain, mountain gap, railroad bridge, etc. In the third column is given the name of the county in which the station is located. In the fourth column is the authority for the altitude given. In the fifth column is the elevation of the station, in feet.

Where there is a disagreement among the authorities as to the alti- tude of a place, or where there is some doubt as to its being exact, the letter "a" is placed to the right and a little above the figure, indicating that the altitude given is approximate.

2. There is a second list divided by counties arranged alphabeti- cally, and under each county the arrangement is as follows Column one gives the names of the stations, arranged alphabeti- cally; the second column is a description of the station; the third column gives the authority ; and in the fourth column is the elevation in feet. Because of the effect of elevation on health, on vegetation, and on the occupations of the people, »this report will be of distinct benefit not only to the scientists working out data in regard to the agricultural and other resources of the State, but also to the home-seeker, the health-seeker, and the tourist.

It is realized that this list is incomplete, and that there may be discrepancies which further data will bring out. It is planned, how- ever, to add to this list from time to time and to make any corrections which may be brought to the attention of the Survey. Joseph Hyde Pratt, State Geologist. ..
