COMET CLOSE TO VENUS
MAY WILL BRING IT INTO
GREAT BRILLIANCY.
Earth Passes Through Tail May Is.
Best Appearance Three Days
Later.

Haliey's comet is now approaching it's
period Of greatest brilliancy. The month
Of May is the most important time Of the
present return of the comet. During this
time it will be visible to the naked eye.
The position Of the comet tomorrow is
one Of interest. as 1t will be nearest to the
planet Venus 1t will be as close to Venus
as it will be later on to the earth
Venus will be a morning star. The
comet also will be seen in the morning.
The view OF them SO near each other will
be curious. Since the conditions OF size
and proximity OF the earth and Venus are
similar. 1t will give an idea Of the appear
ance of the earth when the comet will be
near to 1t.
distance or elongation to the right or
west of the sun.
Pass Through Tail May 10.
The most interesting day OF its visit Is
May IS. on which the earth will pass
through the comets tail. The earth will
move in one direction, the comet speeding
on in the opposite. The head of the comet
earth, while the tail itself will probably
extend beyond the earth. 1t will take
the earth about five hours to pass through
the tail
May II the comet is expected to be seen
at its best. At that time 1t will be in its
most spectacular brilliancy in the evening
sky.
The position which the comet occupies
May %. says Mr.. Wiiczewski of the St.
Louis University, lis the same as the
earth's position about four weeks previous
to that date. If the comet had antici-
pated its present return by one month
the earth and the comets head would have
crossed each other. Since the comets
of the earth's orbit the comet would have
passed on bellows the earth"
Movements to Be Considered.
To obtain a clear conception of the ap-
parent motion of Halley's comet it must
be remembered that the earth is revolving
on its axis and, at the same time, is NOV
Ing in its orbit. and that the comet has
motion of it's own. When these three
elements are considered due to the earth's
rotation on its axis, the sun and stars and
comet appear to rise in the east and set
in the west.
Due to It's own motion in it's path and
the earth's motion in it's orbit, the comet
will rise earlier or set later every day.
The combination of these motions results
in the apparent motion of the comet as
seen by looking at the heavens.
June ) the comet and the earth appear
to separate. At that time the comet
grows fainter as it starts back on it's
wander!ngs for the next seventy five years
until 1854.
Officials of the photographic Office
of opinion that during the approach OF
Halleys comet toward the earth and it's
departure away from it electric magnetic
phenomena may occur that will be of in
terest in the scientific world. AS these
phenomena may be more plainly observed
on shipboard, shpmasters have been re-
quested to note any such and to report
them to the photographic officials at the
various ports.

Dealers Fall In Line.

The dealers in Washington also took
up the work. Many refused to buy milk
of farms that did not show a high score.
From May, 1907. to May, 1908. there
was an Improvement OF almost 100 per
cent in the scores made.
The bulletin contains a number of pic
lures of sanitary and insanitary cow
and milk houses and barns and micro
photographs of clean and unclean milk.
The conclusion drawn Is that the con-
ditions in and around Washington have
improved greatly as the result Of the
federal and municipal crusade, and the
results OF the Washington campaign for
cleanliness are quoted by the standard
writer's on the subject not only through
out the United States, but all over the
world.
