( LI U NK( KKTAHIKH In order that every voter in Col leton county may have the opportu nity without much truble to enroll for the approaching election*, all club secretaries are hereby request ed to carry or send by a member of the enrollment committee the book of' enrollment to picnics, public gatherings, etc., within his club dis trict. This will in a great measure expedite the matter of enrollment and may save the, right to vote to many idtisena. Further, all secretaries are urged If they have not already done so, to arrange for the keeping of club book at some public place like a store for the remainder of the enrollment pe Hod. giving due notice thereof. It has come to our attention that some voters And it a hardship ttf go to a private residence for 'enrollment, and this request is made in brder that none may have any objection to :he matter of enrollment. >. .

All of those voters whe have signed tlieir initials are re spectfully asked to re-enrpU by signing their full names. This may appear ar a mere technlcrilty to many t but it is the desire of the county eommltteo that the new role^ iw. lived up to in every respect In Colleton county. At least, it will be no hardship to sign the full name and ail voters are urged to do so. M P. HOWELL. Attest:. County Chairman. R. M. JEFFERIES, Secretary. Notice to Yoter*.

A correspondent writes: "Would you please publish in the news let ter In concise and simple anguage in 'article on lightning rods for farm biddings by some one In authority and fully capable to write on the subject?” This request can not be fully an iwered in a short note in * the new* letter, but the informacon given be low seeks to answer in a definite and specific way the mpst important questions involved! !. Do lightning cod* really pro ect buildings? Answer: Ye*, but the rod* must be of proper charac- .er, properly installed, and property grounded in relatively moist earth Periodical inspection and mamten tr.tc in good condition are tndispen uiblv to efficient protection 2.

This latter re mit Is gained incidentally through jonnections made to water, pipes, tince they later usually pas* through the earth outside the building. 4. Are gilded or otherwise ex : pensive points of platinum or ipedal metal or of fanciful ccnsfuc- tlon necessary? Answer: No; not in the least. Sharp slpatlng siiuill sustained electrical charges, but such electrical manifestations ire perfectly harmless. The ima gined superiority of such fancifqF mints is utterly valueless when the rod is struck by a real lightning lash. The useful qualities li.\'»tn- Ing rod points must'pojtsess are In- fnslhllity, nmhaniogt strength nmt lecurity of inst-yliation, ond^ per- uanence and tfv.rabillty umber pro- longed exposure to the weather.

Because i»t i'ly’.'-vrilabillty rm. he.pness. a v.ell as ,is e.ictt'lcai properttfs. iron is one of the he-1 riteriils fer r^ds. Iron, however, n: =;v anil deteriorates,, uutVr pro- .juKod/exposlirv 1 tp .the ' Nv eat her. suck a conductor, and no material benefit is derived from the pretence Copper is better :han iron net only on account of its inuextrnctl- bility, but also because ofA's soft ness and pliability which ciake It sasy.to install. ScientlsU ere not in accord in regard to the properties ■of copper and iron, but in any case questions of coat, durability and mo like far outweigh minor difference!. In electrical properties. Aluminum Is a competitor , for Iron and copper for lightning rods. Its durability under exposure * to weather Is in Its frvor, but its fusi bility makes it Inferior to iron for points. ' t • If low first cost is the controlling factor, galvanized iron rods must be chqpen. but subsequent inspec tions must be made and repairs may become necessary. If -hikher first cost Is not an obstacle, the choice should go to copper first or possibly aluminum. 9. Should lightning conductors be made la the form of solid rods, flat bars or baado. straadod twisted cahtea, wevea atraaded rfhboaa or bellow .twisted cables? * Aaswer: ▲ay of the forme amy properly be employed, er two or more . forme be employed la comkiaatlea. Coatlauous should be put up ta loag coatiauous pieces as far aa possible. Solid rouad wires one-quarter to ooe-half lack la diameter are beat for this parpose. Ceaductors oi » else larger thaa one-fourth jaelL however, present difficulties 1 0 hand Hag and tttstmllation If the rods are solid. It then becomes better to use stranded cables and other simi lar form*. Long continuous lengths, ample across section com bined with flexibility and the ease of its installation over crooked courses rendhr stranded cables, in general! better than any other form of conductor available. Substantial icoA-~%>oint8 in com bination with copper cables iro'.n tlve-sikteenths inch in diameter r for small farm buildings, one one-half inch in diameter for large impor tant structures form one of,, the best possible systems of conductors for lightnlngrod construction. There Is no good reason for /pur chasing other fjfl|clful forma of cable it materia ly greater prices per pound than are asked for stand ard makes of cable of approximate^ ly the same cross section. 7. Must lightning rods be con nected to the earth? Answer: Yea by ail means, and most effectively^ Just a few operators in the lig Ing rod. j profession have soujtft to impose upon the uninformed a sys tem of ungrounded lightning rods. Such rods are a menace instead of a protection. M Is impracticable to fully discuss here methods of making connection* to earth. In general "terms'the conductor should, be^rtfrried down into the earth and <Way from the building in a trench pr other excavation, so as to reach and imbed the conductor itself or plates attached thereto into per manent y moist earth.

What is the best arrange ment of rods on a building? Answer A building completely 'screened ami surrounded by and inclosed beneatn a cage or network of substantial metallic conductors, all, properly tutercftnfiectcd and joined to the earth .would be most effectively protectedflflrom lightning discharges For ordinary’ purposes a far simpler system Is adequate. • For, example, good protection Is afforded by a con ductor running along the ridge of a building and extending to the earth, either at the middle of the sides or, preferably, At each of the four cor ners.
