Abstract
The construction and performance of a proportional CO<sub>2</sub> counter system is described by which an over-all accuracy is obtained of 1.3% after a 2-day counting period. Counting rates for anthracite and oak wood samples using the system are presented. Use of the apparatus for geological dating purposes is briefly discussed. -- AATA
