pr cam gd) A TT Pu SE Ce ' Farm Output ey Declared Vital Agricultural Experts Urged To Stay on Canadian Farms Dr. G. I.

Adelard Godbout, newly-el te Dr. Theodore Dunham, Jr, of Pasadena, Calif, a foremost stu- dent of the planets, believes that present knowledge does not justify a claim that no life exists on the planet Mars. Other scientists have tontended that there is little or no oxygen on- Mars and that therefore no life, at - least like that found on the earth, would be possible.' } Adapted To Rigorous Conditions? "In spite of, spectroscople evid- ence against the presence of oxy- gen," say the Mt. Wilson astrono- mer In the curr-nt Astronomical _ Boclety of the Pacific publication, "it 18 more than likely that it has existed in the past, and later com- bined with ferrous iron to form fer- ric compounds with a reddish cole or similar to that of tho desert ar- eas on the planet at the present time. "It would be unwise to say there may not be enough, of both water vapor and oxygen to sup- port life In sorhe form which may have become gradually adapted to the rigorous conditions existing on Mars," Dr. Dunham declares it is more . than likely that the planets' were once a part of the sun and were: torn away at a cosmic encounter with a Dassing star, Pr FETA ae) Farming F nd Greatest Asset .
