SCARCITY OF COMETS.
1t Has Been Many Years since One
of the Fan-TnIIed Stars Has
Neared the Earth.

Comets seem to be giving our plan
ct large berth. Not in many years
has one of the celestial vagrants ap-
preached near enough to the earth to
become spectacular object for the
naked eyes Of the masses, says the
New York Post. a few years ago
astronomers reported, after making
hasty calcula tons based on first OBJ
servations of a fan-taied star which
they had discovered. that his comet
ship was headed directly for the
earth and everybody prepared himself
for the novel sensation that would
be caused by seeing the vaporous
monster emerge from space, growing
larger and larger each day and final
ly, perhaps. filling a considerable part
of the heavens. But the astronomers
had figured wrongly. The comet was
headed away from us and faded rap
idly away. Since then several comets
have been observed through the tele-
scopes, but none has come near
enough to be visible to the naked
eye. The comet recently discovered
by an observer at Nice is another that
disdains to come anywhere near the
earth. 1t is faint object of the
eleventh magnitude and can be seen
only through telescope of consid-
cradle size. 1t is flirting its tail at
us at distance of $4,000. 900 miles,
and is rushing away as fast as it
can. Its nearest approach to the sun
occurred on December I, when it was
two per cent. nearer to our source
of natural light and heat than the
earth is. 1t was discovered by Gi-
ovanni Ciaconini. but that gentleman
has not thought enough of it to give
it his name

OIL OF SUNFLOWER.
New Delicacy Receives Attention
from Agricultural Department.
FOrnd ON Investigation That the OIL
of the sunfOwer is an Edible OIL
and Makes Excellent SUBJ
stitutc for olive OIL.

Salad dressing from sundower oil
is one of the delicacies promised from
an extensive investigation of that
plant by Prof. Wiley, chief of the di-
vision of chemistry of the department
of agriculture. He says the oil from
sunfiower seed is delicious as an ed
ible oil. and one which, nearer than
any other known vegetable oil, has
the general properties of the oil of
the olive.
1t is palatable and makes, without
refining, a delicious salad dressing.
The residue oil cakes have a high nu-
tritive value. quite equal if not supe-
rior to f1aXseed anu cottonseed cakes.
Even after the extraction of the oil
by pressure it is extremely rich in
heterogeneous matter.
Prof. Wiley encourages the growth
OF sunfiowers to a much greater ex-
tent in this country than at present,
saying that in Russia. where the nu-
merous religious fasts restricting the
use of meat lead to large consump-
ton of vegetable oils, and oily foods,
the sunflower seed has become almost
staple article of diet. 1t is eaten
raw or roasted. as peanuts are in
America. but much more extensively.
Between 1890 aud lS40 sunfower oil
began to be manufactured on COM
mercial scale in the southern prov
inces of Russia, and since that time
series of important industries based
on the production of oil and oil cake
has been developed there.
BY study of the reports received by
the numerous correspondents of the
division of statistics and chemistry
in different parts of the United States,
it is found that the sunfiower grows
best for commercial purposes in Kan
sas, Missouri and the Ohio valley.
Many other parts of the country are,
however, suited to the growth of this
plant, and, as rule, the soil best
adapted to the growth of Indian corn
produces the best crop of sunfiowers.
From his large correspondence Prof.
ers are grown quite extensively in
many parts of TINS country. it is al
most exclusively, if not entirely con-
sumed for feeding birds and poultry,
and in some instances for medicinal
purposes or for cattle and horses.
Large quantities of seed are now i'm
ported yearly to this couutrv, ard by
recent finding thev aia free from
duty. as they are used entirely for
feeding poultry and cattle, being
classified as flower seed.
