Earth's Climate Has Not Changed

During the last few years the sup

It would render up that the earth
ought to be growing hotter instead OF
colder.
II, furthermore, the earth were
slightly increasing IN temperature, the
amount of rainfall precipitated from
the atmosphere would become greater
rather than less, and as. at the same
time, the amount Of water, shut up in
the earths rocks would also be forced
out in greater quantities by increas-
ing heat, It would not be possible to
suppose that the earth's surface was
becoming dryer.

earth has exhibited within historic
time any general drying up or any
tendency to revert with more and
more suspicion, and the hypothesis
have been substituted that either the
apparent variations OF climate are
local, or else that they are the results
Of some seesaw of conditions. the
causes of which remain to be dlscov-

In short, whatever test be applied,
1t becomes extremely hard to show
that the climate of any portion Of the
civilized world has appreciably chang
