He finds that within the bright
regions on Mars surface the

plus degrees Centigrade, and

plus 10 to plus 20, or even more.
Now plus 20 degrees Centigrade
equals 6S degrees Fahrenheit

Moreover, these temperatures arc
In substantial agreement with
those calculated by Professor
Pickering independently upon
other grounds.
There seems to be a growing
tendency to admit the claims Of
those who insist that Mars sus-
tains at least vegetable forms OF
life, and probably simple forms
of animal life also. Notwithstan6-.

THE main purpose" (of his
paper on Mars, is to show that
vegetable, and perhaps animal,
life is possible; and the type OF
vegetation, viz, the tussock grasses
and the tundra MOSES and lichens,
which will account for the observed
high temperatures.
The assumption of the pres
ence of such a type of vegeta-
ton is in harmony with the
visual observations recorded by
astronomers, showing changes
