MOON NOT WEATHER FACTOR
U. S. MeteoroIogists of Agricultural
Department Say AstroIogy Has
LED People Astray.

Washington, D. C.-Astrology is
branded as a superstition by the de-
partment of agriculture in its current
weekly news letter. Discussing the
question of whether the planets affect
the weather, the department declared
'the belief still to be found in all
countries that the planets and the
moon do affect the weather never had
any scientific basis whatever; it is
only a remnant of the many super
stitions generated and fostered by that
other greater superstition. a%strology."
I'VE have every reason to believe
that neither the planets nor the moon
a have any appreciate effect on the
weather, because they furnish SO lit
tie heat upon which all weather
changes ultimately depend and this
belief is fully supported by weather
records
