dark spot appeared in the Southern snow
cap. Later this spot heightened rapidly
and early IN July it was a thousand miles
long. dividing the snow in hall.
sixteen hundred square miles OF snow
have melted within the last thirty days.
The melted SHOWS have apparently been
transferred 10 the seas across the land.
Small dark areas surrounded by snow ap-
peared on July 10th. and two days later !

line became more conspicuous on July l4th.
and on the 18th dark area about the size
