Lightning Rods Recommended.

Bert B. Buckley, state fire marshal,
has issued the following: The United
States bureau of standards (Tech-
nologic Paper No. So, having digested
the reports of farm mutual insurance
companies and state fire marshals,
makes the statements contained in
two paragraphs, as follows: "The eff
cheney of lightning rods may be esti-
mated at SO per cent. AS the reports
took account of lightning rod installa-
lations of every kind, both new and
old, good and bad, these figures give
strong support to the use of lightning
rods. Four hundred and sixty houses
noted as being struck by lightning,
were occupied at the time by families,
of which the average number was
probably close to that shown by the
census OF 1910, or 4.5 persons. In 254
cases out of the 460 one or more per
sons were either severely injured or
killed. But two or three of these
houses were reported as having rods
SO it might be concluded from these
figures that in the case of an un-
rodded house being struck, the chances
that all of the occupants will escape
harm are about IS out of each 100."
