Dry cells for telephones and bells are generally made smaller, delivering about twenty amperes upon short circuiting but lasting longer than ignition cells. Some- times they are useful for over a year. Miniature dry cells for vacuum tube work and for flashlights are made fn varying sizes-and put up in various capacities. but they lose their effectiveness quickly, of tourse depending upon the period the vacuum tube or flashlight is ased. The emf. developed in an un- used dry cell is from 15 to 1.65 volts. In purchasing new cells the reader should know that any new dry cell having a less emf. than 1.4 volts indicates a defect or deterforation through long "shelf life." increasing temperatures, but the higher the temperatu:: the faster does the cell deteriorate when nol fn use. It is therefore best to keey them in a temperature below 2§ centigrade. ? Owing to various causes, due to compactness of manufacturing and its comparatively r-old po larization, dry cells are not usefu for delivering a aady current for a long service, and houl. only be used in radio or any other work when an Intermittent current fis required or when a very small, steady currert is to be employed, such as the plate currett in a re- ceiving vacuum tube.

CLOUGH Don't Let Your Battery Freeze A Fully Charged Battery Contains Its Own Antifreeze Liquid STORAGE BATTERY LIQUID is a mixture of sulphuric acid and water, In proportions which vary with the state of clarge of the battery. Sulphuric acid is proof against freesing, but water freezes at 32 deg. Fahrenheit. The addition of sulphuric acid to water lowers the frees Ing point of the mixture very greatly as the proportion of acid is in- creased, and if sufficient is present to raise the specific gravity of the mixture to 1260, by the hydrometer, it becomes safe against freezing down to 60 deg. F. below zero, which is a temperature lower than any battery is likely to be subjected to in this country. This specific gravity corresponds to that of the liquid in a battery which is about three-quar- ters charged, so that any battery which is kept as near full charge as * this is safe against freezing, but in order to be well on the safe side it is best always to keep a battery completely charged, with its liquid test- ing 1876, if it 1s to be subjected to extreme cold. As a battery dis charges, . the acid which was in the liquid leaves it and enters into chemical combination with the material of the plates, thus reducing the proportion of acid in the liquid and raising its freezing point, so that it will freeze at a higher temperature. 'At one-half charge, enough acid will have left the liquid, to bring its gravity down to about 1210 and ite freezing point up to 20 deg. F. below sero. When three-quarters of the charge has been exhausted, and the gravity falls to 1160 freezing will occur at sero F------ a degree of cold possible in the case of cars left outside for long periods In severe weather. The greatest risk, however, is In the case of the completely discharged battery, left in an unheated place in cold weather, for there will be so little acid left in its liquid that it will freese at 20 deg. F. above zero--a very common winter tem perature in unwarmed buildings. The freezing of a battery usually re sults in putting it out of service through the cracking of the cell jars and the escape 'of the liquid. If it is not immediately repaired, the bos and plates may be destroyed. Practically speaking, when a battery is sufficjently c to do its work properly, the danger of its freezing is not great, but the battery that is stored in a cold place and becomes discharged, is In serious danger of ing damage. Fortunately, the * 'fully charged battery is immune to by exposure to cold.
