The ones most familiar to us all andthe most available from the standpoint of cost are the bluebulb lamps. With regard to these lamps, however, only arough approximation to daylight is claimed.

The comparison here, it will be re-membered, is photometric, not colorimetric. 86 FERREE, RAND, AND HAUPT ri CDLDR CHARACTERBTICS (SPECTROPHOTONETRIC CURVES) NATURAL LIEMT ARTIFICIAL DAVLIEHT CPUIPMENTS MA70A LAMPS. .41 .43 .45 .47 .49Violet I Blue LAMPCOMniTTEE REPOTrr 1916 Wavp Lrn^+h^ .51 .53 .55 .57 .59 Green | Yellow .61 .63 .65 ,67 .69 Orange I Red Fig. I A—Black body at 5000 degrees absolute (Average Daylight) B—Blue sky (Ives) I.
