ALTERS URGED TO GO THE
LIMIT IN CHECKING FARM
ACCIDENT HAZARDS

Fourth Club boys and girls are
urged to go the limit in checking &C.
cident hazards on farms this year.
Authorities emphasize that due to
labor shortage, farm families must
work longer hours and the resulting
fatigue makes them less alert. Also,
farmers must employ as helpers
young people with no previous exper-
fence in farm work, who may fail to
recognize hazards.
Preventable accidents on farms re-
suit in the death of 1900 members
of farm households and the injury of
100000 annually. This toll serious
ly affects production of farm food. In
time lost due to farm accidents last
year, seven bushels of wheat could
have been produced for each of the
1877, 100000 persons in the United
States.
1t is estimated that fully a half
million farm boys and girls will take
part in the 1915 National All Farm
Safety Activity. AS incentives to
achieve outstanding All safety rec
ords, General Motors offers merit
awards. They include silver medals
to five winners in each county and
$25 War Bonds to the ten top rank
ing county champions in each state.
National All Club Congress honors
will be awarded to the three highest
rating state champions in each of
the four extension sections and four
at large. Twelve of the sectional win
ers will be selected to receive 5000
college scholarships.
In addition, the county in each
state reporting the most outstanding
All safety program in 1945 will re-
ceive special plaque designating
the honor. Full information concern
ing the activity, which is conducted
under the direction of the Extension
Service, may be obtained from coun-
ty extension agents.
Last years state winner in Mary
land was Janet Lee Reese of Owings
Mills. County winners were named
in Baltimore, Frederick, Howard and
Hartford counties.
