A careful examination of the trees that are struck by lightning shows that over half of them are white poplar. From this fact scientists conclude that the poplar has some value as a conductor of lightning. This being the case, agriculturists are advised to plant these trees in the vicinity of their farm buildings. An additional suggestion is the attaching of lightning-rods to two or three ot the tallest of these trees. This, will, it is stated, almost absolutely insure neighbouring buildings against being struck and destroyed by electric storms.
