cit is a better thing for the
corn crop that this freeze came
after the corn was out Of the
ground than before it sprout-
ed" remarked a farmer Mon
day morning. "a cold strap
just after planting would cause
the seed to rot and it would
have to be replanted. AS it is
most of it has merely been
frozen back to the ground and
it will grow up again as good
as ever. This IS the opinion Of
several corngrowers in the vi
entity of Council Bluffs. The
small grain crops will not be
seriously affected by the cold
in this vicinity. Wheat is sell

"There are no birds in last

Weather Crop Bulletin

For the week ending April
II, 1910, Des Moines, Iowa -
The first half of the week
was warm with occasional light
to moderate, but we'll distribut.
ed, showers. The latter part
was much colder, ending with
the temperature 8to Is degrees
below the freezing point and
general snow f1urries. The
precipitation was timely and
very beneficial especially in
western sections where drouthy
conditions had prevailed for
seven weeks, but there was no!
enough of it to materially in
terfere with field work Until
Saturday. AS yet it is not pos
sible to ascertain the extent of
damage caused by freezing
weather to fruits, garden truck
and early seeded cereals, but
fruits and garden truck are
undoubtedly seriously injured.
The soil is in fine working con.
dition, and rapid progress was
made in blowing and preparing
for corn planting. Consider.
able corn was planted in near.
ly all sections of the state and
some Of it is up. Grass and
all small grains were doing
we'll until Saturday, but the
snow and freezing temperature
will check the growth of grass,
and has to some extent injured
the grain crops.

Don't be Alarmed.
We hear considerable talk

\
about the great Haley Comet,
that is soon to be seen in the
heavens by the naked eye, and
people seem to differ as to what
may be the result to the world.
We remember seeing SINH.
liar visitor away back in 1843,
or 67 years ago. It appeared
just at the time of "Milierism, .
when a man of that name, who
carefully considered $50 he said''
the book of Daniel, the proph-
! ct, and according to his calcula-
tion, the worlds destruction on
the 18th of May of that year,
was a foregone conclusion. AS
in most all things, this man Mill
er had his followers, and they
saw or thought they saw many
signs, indicating the final de-
struction of old mother earth,
or rather that the comet would
strike the earth and it would go
up in smoke. To make it look
more probable, that year was a
remarkable one in many re-
spects. The spring opened as
usual, and farmers had their
small grain in ground, much of
it had terminated nicely. On
the 14'h day Of March, of that
year, the snow began to fall.
and continued to fall until it
was about Is inches deep, then
on the night of the 10Th it fell
again until the snow onthe level
was some 2 feet deep.
Snow was a stranger to
many in that country (Tennes.
see,) as a general thing, and
some had never witnessed a
snow storm before, and to all
such, the fall of snow, at that
season of the year, was taken
as a proof that Miller, the crank
was correct in his calculation on
the final end, and some were so
disguised at the state of the
weather that they didn't care a
continental if the comet struck
the earth, if it would only warm
up the weather. But then as
now, we are no nearer being
able to tell when the end COM
eth. To many of us, the end
will come, comet or no comet,
50 we need not fear the Hale
Comet. If we could be assure
|of life until old mother cart
swings off into nonentity W
would be as old as the everlas
ting hills. We saw the same
Comet, no doubt, 81 years ago,
and here we are yet, and the
earth is still making its daily
! JOURNEY, and those incorporated
May 25th 1843 as the day of
the general configration, sleep
with their fathers. Farmers
may-go on with their planting,
seed time and harvest is certain
to come for God has promisd it,
and has also said that no man
knows the day or the hour when
1.-THE end cometh.

END OF WORLD NOT IN.
SIGHT.
So Says Father w. F. Rigge,
Astronomer of Creighton
University.
TAIL OF COMET NOT DAN
GEROUS.

. - VI O>\iNAA@ ANVIL k<1HlNe
GEROUS.
The world will not come to
an end on May 10 as far as
Haley's comet is concerned, is
an assertion made by Father
Rigge at the meeting of the
Philosophical soci ETY. in Bar
ight's hall Sunday afternoon.
Father Rigge gave a number
OF reasons why the passing of
the earth through the tail of
the comet would have no parti.
cular effect, chief of which was
the statement that the gases of
which the tail is supposed to be
composed are o thin that stars
can be go l'elgh the vapor
for hun .s4 Vi thousand Of
miles WI Telescopes. He also
brought out the fact that the
smelter located in Omaha sent
out gases 100 times more dense
and poisonous than those COM
posing the tail of the sky wand
erer. The fact that the head
of the comet at the time the
earth passes through the tail is
10000, 900 miles away is anoth-
er fact indicating that the gas.
es will not be pronounced dem
sity.
Father Rigge explained to a
large gathering the astronomi-
cal data that has been gather
ed about the comet. He said
according to the records this is
the twenty seventh time it has
passed the earth and the first
time the earth passed through
the tail. He also denied that
III : comet was the star of
Bethlehem
The comet will pass before
the sun May l9 at 9:48 at night
II will not BE- visible here, but
will be in the Pacific ocean
After the comet has passed the
sun, it will be seen more clearly
in Omaha and those who lock
for it on May 20 and 81 should
be awarded for their efforts
Father Rigge Sid it is prob
able that at the time the comet
passes the sun the sky in this
section may be family lighted.
Last evening Father Rigge
said a letter from a former
student of his new at St. Louis
university has convinced him
he saw the comet both on We'd
nesday and SATURDAY. mornings,
but did not at the time recog-
nize it, so faint was the speck
of light. He did not see the
tail. or any indication Of it. and
thus was misled into thinking
he saw only a star.
II have no doubt Prof. Senter
saw the comet" said Father
Rigge, "also that the st. Louis
Observers sawit. The St. Louis
data sent tU me convinces me
that / also saw it. The high
school is much higher than
Gre g h t o n observatory, of
course, and just at present my
apparatus is not in the best
working condition but it will
be shortly. Omaha Bee.
