It used to be thought that clouds were simply produced by the mixture of cold and warm air. In 1788 Dr. Hutton of Edinburgh propounded his celebrated law of mixtures, which briefly asserted that, when two masses of air at different temperatures mingled, the colder air caused the vapour in the warmer air to condense, owing to the lower temperature of the mixture not being able to support the same amount of vapour in solution. ^__ Dr. Von Bezold has recently (1890) investi- gated the question, and has shewn that when saturated warm air mixes with unsaturated _cold air, more cloud will be found than when >atu- rated cold air penetrates unsaturated warm air.
