COMMUNICATING WITH MARS.

COMMUNICATING WITH MARS.
Prof. Todd, of Amherst, Mass, feels
confident that II there are people on
Mars, the nearest Planet, he is going to
hear from them in September.
His plan is to 90 up through the dense
atmosphere and lay a wire connection
which will bring any ether flashes IRON
our "neighbors" within human reach.
This done, Prof. Todd, SIS well as Prof.
Pickering, OF Harvard, and all the other
great astronomers Of the day, believe the
rest will be easy.
In arranging for his perilous ascent
Prof. Todd will make use Of every de-
vice known for the safety and success oil
such an enterprise.
He wishes to reach height OF III
miles if possible. AT the present time
the highest ascension that has ever been
made is distance much less than that.
Prof. Todd says:
"The Martisns have found ont the
thIngs that the people of this planet are
still bllndly cropping for. Upon MsrS
they have progressed thousands OF years
beyond US. All the things that are
mysteries here are an open book there
Once give Us a connecting link, and IN
that moment qe shall have unsesled a
book which only tens Of thousands OF
years of work and study could reveal. "

Unfortunately, however. nj. trogen prefers to be free, and refuses to be locked up as component of vegetable or animal tissues, except in the most roundabout ways. The eaters are multiplying at such a rate that, 1t is said, there will soon be no available nitrogen to provide the food of the nations. The store of one nj trogen fertilizer, nitrate of soda. or Chili saltpetre. is now beng drawn upon so rapidly that 1,740,000 tons of fit were dug out and exported in 1907
