May IS 1982 THE FIE8HEWTON ADVANCE Lightning Rods Prevent Lightning Losses WHEN your buildings are protected with Shinn-Flat Lightning Rods, you may be ab- solutely sure that they're safe from lightning damage. Shinn-Flat Lightning Rods are the only kind made in the form of a flat cable. Sir Oliver Lodge, Steinmetz and other scientists state that lightning travels on the surface of con- ductors, and hence the flat cable will carry the greater current, because it has nearly twice as much conducting surface as other forms. Actual tests prove that Shinn-Flat has less self-induction, less resist- ance, less heat and greater ca- pacity than round cables. tightning Can't Strike if Shinn Gets There First! Shinn-Flat prevents lightning by per- mitting the electricity to leak GRAD- UALLY from the heavily charged ground and building into the atmos- phere above. PROF. W. H. DAY Professor of Physics at the Ontario Agricultural College for many years, and Canada's recognized authority on Lightning Protection, is now Manager of the Shinn Mfg. Co., and assists in training Shinn Dealers, thus insuring correct installation. Call and get a book on the Lightning Cause and Control. E. RUTHERFORD, Agent PROTON STATION, ONT.

The old nil inhabitant can't recall a bigger tin b jing hm'etl from the Saugeen, and on biing exhibited on Friday in Krueger and Lettnoi'a butcher shop it was the centre of much interest and attrtcticn to the local followers of the rod.
