I found the first flowers on the mesa, the little white snow-flowers, on Feb. 28 on the plateau east of Wolf Cañon, almost or rather on both sides of the spot where we found the baby jack-rabbit. It sends you its regards.
I have also found earth-stars wandering about, one of which I picked up for you. Indeed I pocketed one before for the same reason but it vanished. I knew you would like to be kept abreast of the flora.
Will you please have several more complete sets of prints made of the various globes of Mars.
Now that we have got into the planet's own month the time for leaving him draws near. However here it has been spring for some time; while in Boston it is polar. So one feels well off in being far off.
A little white bull we had here when I came, and which I sent away, was killed just under Elden Mt. on the south by mountain lions the other day.

Am bringing back many photographs of tracks; mountain lion, jack-rabbit, skunks.
