Agriculture, Toronto.)
A5 a comprehensive conclusion
from eur investigations„ we
have found that if all the
buildings in. 1'11'1'0 Ontario
were rodded more than- 95 per cent.
of the annual damage to buildings
by lightning would be prevented.
The method by which, this eonclusion
was lrived at was ag follows: In
1912 eighteen insurance companies
in Ontario kept special records for
us; from their reports we •learnecL
that out a eery 7,000 unrodded
buildings insured by them 37 were
struck by lightning, while in every
..r
7,000 rodded ones only two 'were
struck by lightning. The rods ,Ige -
vented damage .in 35 cases Oat ntfan
expectancy of 37, showing aeft IF.,
ciency, of 94.7 p,e. Since that we
have determined the efficiency fdr the
Years 1913, 1914 and 1915: The
results for the four years are as
follows:
Efficiency
Year. of Rods.
1912 94.7
1913 ...... .. .. .. 92.0
1914 .... , .... . .. . 99.8
1915 '.... e . .. .. .. . 88.9
Average for four years 97.2
To apply these figures: The report
of the Superintendent of Insurance
shows that in 1912 the insurance
paid on 'losses caused by lightning
was $262,282. No doubt the actual
loss exceeded the insurance by per-
haps 1-3 or 1/a. If so, the actual
loss was $350,000 or over. 94.7 per
cent. of this equals $331,450, which
represents the saving that would
have .been effected that year if all the
buildings had been •rodded.
Investigations along similar lines
in Iowa have shown. an effieleneY of
98.7 p.c. for rods in that state, based
on the report of 55 mutual cont-
panies each year for eight years. In
Michigan the efficiency of lightning
rods has been shown to be from 98
to 99 p.c.
These few facts, which are all mat-
ters of record in published reports,
establish beyond question the conclu-
sion first given, that if all Imildingss
in rural Ontario -were rodded 95 p.c.
of the annual lightning damage to
buildings would be eliminated.—

Care of the Weanling Lamb.
• For best results lambs should be
weaned at between four and five
months: It has been found that Un-'
'der conditions prevailing during the'
hot -dry months of mid -summer the
ewes will drop off considerably in
their milk flow. The lambs receive
comparatively little nourishment and,
it is better for both ewe and lamb
for them to be separated. When the
lar.abs are removed from the eWeis
they will miss little the small amount
of milk they ., ould receive and will
soon learn to depend upon pasture.
They should receive the very best
pasture available. Npthing fits in
better than a Patch of rape sown at
tbe proper times so ,as to be ready
for pasture when the lambs are wean-
ed. Dire should be exercised in turn-
ing the lambs on the fresb rape to
avoid bloating and probable death.
ff aro rape is even:able fresh clover
will give satisfactory -esults. In ad-
dition to pasture a feed of grain once
a clay atilt push the lambs along to a
good finish. At no time should it be
necessary to feed ove,. one-half pound
of grain per day to each lamb while
on pasture. T . P. Sackville,

Uses of Fruits and Vegetables.
The drastic regulations set forth
by the Canada Food Board lately,
have caused much anxiety to aiany
peo.ple who feel that they must now
choose between either being consid-
ered unpatriotie, or going without
sufficient food_ to nourish their
bodies.
- This is a mistaken idea. In their
excitement they have forgotten for
the moment to recall the long list of
available substitutes which. can whol-
ly replace the Allies' demands, and
to remember that foremost among
these stand fruits and vegetables,
Fresh 'Vegetables not only contain
a high percentage of water—a neces-
sary requirement of our bodies—but,
also, a large amount of Mineral salts
and acids which act as blood purifiers
and body regulators; they also serve
to prevent too great concentration of
food and thus aid in the digestive
process. Dried vegetables on the oth-
er hand, are rich in tissue -building
material, dried peas and beans con-
taining as much protein as our best
cuts, of beef, in addition to contain-
ing a large percentage of starch.
While fruits are usually noted
more for their ilavor, mineral mat-
ter and water than for anything else,
still we must not forget that bananas,
dates, figs, raisins and prunes are
high in food value, some containing
as high as 60 p.c., of sugar. For this
reason. they are a valuable substi-
tute for cane sugar: They might well
bo given to children in place of can-
dy, and when served in combination
with puddings, or salads, redttce the
amount of sugar -needed and add
much to the value of the dish.
Vegetables and fruits should forni
a large part of the diet luring the
winter as well as the summer
Months, and • it it therefore to our
advantage to see that they are can-
ned or dried at the proper time for
future. use. Much valuable informa-
tion on the canning and dry -
In of fruits and Tegetables may be
teoured from the Wotneu'S Institute

Bigger bar ---bigger seller
The bigger Comfort bar means more soap for the money than
ever before. Think of that—in war -time! The quality "is the
same—the kind that gives Comfort the largest sale in Canada.
Ask4or the Bigger Bar—your grocer can easily supply you. No premiums
with the wrappers, in war -time. If you are still getting the smaller bar,
however, its wrapper is still good for premiums.
Use Comfort Soap and get a brighter, cleaner, easier wash.
