ARE LIGHTNING RODS
WORTH PURCHASING?

Despite the many swindles that
have been worked in the sale of
lightning rods, this device can be
made to be 100 percent efficient, ac-
cording to agricultural engineering
specialists.
Because of its great durability,
copper held to be the best material
for use in lightning rods. Satisfac-
tory protection, however, may be
secured from rods made of half-inch
galvanized iron pipe.
The chief points to be observed in
the installation of lightning rods,
says Virgil Overholt of The College
of Agriculture, are a. Conductors
should be installed in as straight runs
as possible. Where bends are nee
essary use curves of at least one
foot radius. (2) Rods are best Sc
cured to the building by single piece
screw FASTENERS. Do not use in
sulators. (3) Aerials should be
spaced along ridges at intervals of
not more than 25 feet. They should
extend feet above ridges and 18
inches above chimneys. (4) it is
absolutely essential that the cleo
trical connection of the conductor ex-
tend into permanently moist soil.
There should be no ungrounded ends.
(5) 5)Metal parts of a building such
as hay tracks should be cross con-
nected to the rods.
Further information may be had
from Farmers Bulletin No. 842.

This question is now being put

LAW ENFORCEMENT
MEETING IN COLUMBUS

Ohio has the honor of being first
IN many things. 1t is first in base
ball, in football, in candidates for
the presidency, in successful candi-
dates for that high office and in many
other things. It also has the honor
of being first in the cause of prohi-
bition. The w. C. T. U. was start
ed in Ohio. Praying women in Hills
boro, praying in and in front of the
saloons Of that place started the cru
SADIE against the organized saloon.
The Anti-Saloon League, the most
effective organization against the
traffic, which has been called 3The
Christian Church In Action" was
born in Ohio.
1t is natural then, that the first
meeting in America held in the in
terests of enforcing the prohibition
law should be held in Ohio.
The slogan of the convention was
MAKE Ohio the Dryest State in the
Union" The object as stated, "To
create stronger public opinion for
law enforcement. To make is easier
and more popular to enforce the laws
than not to. To crystalize public
sentiment to uphold law enforcement
officers.
In this subtitle and deep-laid pro-
gram to nullify the effect of the
Volstead Law the saloon forces have
mo less leader than their chief
counsel, Elihu Root. They have moi
given up the fight. They are organic
ed to fight law enforcement to the
finish. Those who believe in our in
stitutions, who believe in playing
the game according to law, who be-
lieve in liberty under the law-always
under the law-are called upon to
continue their support of the cause
until John Barleycorn is dead.

SLEUTHS FIND $4,000
BARBERRIES IN OHIO

Government "sleuths" have locat-
ed 100000 of the common barberries
in Ohio. And between 80 and V90
percent of these bushes have been
destroyed
What's the idea
The common barberry is the al
te1nate host of the black stem rust
of wheat, and is known to be respon-
sible for destructive rust epidemics.
Black stem rust causes an average
loss of fifty million bushels of wheat
every year, or almost twice the 1920
crop in Ohio.
The state and federal government,
have therefore joined forces to eradi-
cate the plant.
This year a farm-to-farm survey
was made in Greene, Montgomery
Preble, Darke, Mercer and Van Vert
counties. In each of these counties
barberries were found, the number
of locations varying from 10 to 100
Since one location may cause heavy
attack of stem rust for distance
of IL to 2 miles around, even a few
bushes may cause great loss.
Although the bushes have been
removed voluntarily, Attorney Cen
eral J. G. Price has ruled that the
state department of agriculture has
authority to order owners to de-
stroy the harmful barherries grow
ing on their property.

PROTECTIVE SOCIETIES

brought out in the study Of farm or

Ohio has SO Of these associations

usually confning their operations to

The organization is such that
sufficient men may be called out
quickly to capture thieves or return
stolen property without delay.
Certain men of a township are des-
ignated as captains; each captain
has a certain number of men as
guards, who respond on short notice
to the call of the captain.
A report from these associations
shows that their work is effective,

LETS NOT FORGET
THE OLD FOLKS

A happy occasion was that when
old friends assembled at the house
of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Dunham Dec.
22nd, in honor Of the Goth birthday
of Robert H. Dunham father of the
host. Ninety years, what a span of
life, what marvellous things have
happened within that time. Away
back more than "a years ago he
voted for John C. Fremont first
Republican candidate for Presideht
Of the U. S. and just recently for
the last one, Warren G. Harding.
Through the sense of hearing and
seeing are not So keen as they once
were, yet all things considered he is
a pretty young old man, and proved
TO be the champion checker player
of the day.
The following poem was written
for the occasion,
Ninety years ago today was the
birth
Of little son upon this earth,
Who came to gladden. the hearts of
two young souls,
And to care for them when they
grew old.
| This son grew, and in due time
Took unto himself a wife
For a journeying companion though
life,
They together moulded for them
selves a home
And around their hearth had loving
faces of their own.
After sixty years of association,
In the ups and downs of married
ties,
Death came in at their door
And the loving companion was nc
more.
This day will not be a day of sad
ness,
For we will make it a day of glad
ness,
To know we are once more permitted
| to meet,
Around most bountiful table with
| you to eat.
And when evening has come,
| And the sun has sunk low
And it is time we all should go,
We will all grant you this earnest
wish
That you will still live and happ!
be
And many more of these birthday
see.

patients were cared for in the en-

Four hundred cases remain, with

rate for men of draft age was only
about one-half of the normal rate.
The cases in Salem were uniformly
distributed over the town, proving
conclusively that the people were in
fected from a common source the
water supply.
Careful investigations of all fam
lies needing relief are now being
made by Miss Elizabeth Parrish,
field representative for Lake Division
of the Red Cross, who is directing
the work of the Social Service Com
mittee of Salem Chapter. In the case
of former soldiers, home conditions
of each man are being studied before
he is discharged from the hospital.
The Salem City government has
taken steps to enlarge and rebuild
the water works and all citizens are
being urged to discontinue the use OF
duo wells and use city water in the
future.

SOUTHWARK

R. B. "Red" Parrish, the @most

Jagged through another. year. Motor
ing here, there, and everywhere, ever
on the go, Red has established new
long-Gstance motoring record during
1920 which will probably not be
broken for many years.
Before December had drawn to a
close Parrish crossed his Is, 900 mile
mark, thereby beating his old record
OF l9,543 miles, made in 1917, by
nearly so per cent.
As pathfinder for the travel and
transport bureau of the B. F. Good
rich Rubber Co., Parrish travels from
one end of the country to the other,
day-in and day-out, gathering road
data for use in the preparation Of
Goodrich road maps and information
service for tourists.
During 1920, Parrish toured the
roads Of % states IN the south.
middle west, and east, ending up in
Jacksonville, Fla, which he has
made his headquarters for the next
month or so. Since early in the fall,
Parrish has been busy finding the
best routes for northerners to take in
motoring south to spend the winter.
Parrish reports that the number Of
motor tourists in Florida is usually
large this year. They have arrived
there from every state of the north
and middle west, anxious to escape
from cold winds and raging bIizzards.
Many expect to stay in the land Of
sunshine and flowers until spring
comes again up in the "cold hands. .
All classes of cars are represented
In this motor-migation southward,
Parrish says. Stately simousines are
followed on the roads by rickety

Tourists of this latter class numerous
in number, are adyenturers willing to
take the chance of making living or
starving" Many are seen stranded
along the road with damaged cars,
and no money to get them repaired.
