Safe Driving Applies
TO Farm Vehicles

Trucks require just as careful
driving and maintenance as pas
senger cars, says the National
Safety Council. Farm trucks in
particular are involved in many
accidents during fall harvesting
operations.
The Safety Council stresses that
every truck driver must know and
follow the rules of the road-obey
traffic signs, avoid excessive speed,
stop at stop signs and before en-
tering main highway, keep on
his own side of the road, slow
down for turns and use proper
hand signals.
Keeping farm trucks in 0safe
mechanical condition will also help
reduce accidents" declares Byron
Bondurant, extension agricultural
engineer at the University of Della
ware. Don't gamble with bad
lights, defective brakes or steering
and poor windshield wipers."
The engineer advises regular
safety check-ups for farm trucks,
either in an official testing lane or
by reputable mechanic.

Special Tax Benefits
For Grain Storage

Special income tax deductions
have been provided by Congress
for grain producers and ware
housemen who complete or acquire
additional grain storage facilities
between January l, 1853, and De-
cember 81, 1865.
According to County Agent
George K. Vapaa, the law now
provides income tax deductions
based on 5-year amortization of
the cost of building new grain
storage facilities or of converting
or charging existing space for
grain storage. This is in place of
ordinary depreciation allowances.
The deductions apply to corncribs,
grain bins, grain elevators and
similar structures.
A grain producer who qualities
under the act for such deductions
needs only to state his intention in
his income tax return for the year
in which he facility was acquired
or completed. Permission before
adding the facility is not needed to
obtain the tax deduction.

Get Farm Ready
For Cold Weather

Get your homestead ready for
winter before the north winds
start to blow, advises County
Agent George K. Vapaa.
Vapaa lists critical points to
check around the house and farm
buildings, as suggested by farm
engineers of the University of Del
aware.
The roof is a good place to begin
winterizing. Replace missing
shingles, renal loose ones and un-
derlay splits with tin or sheet
metal.
Remove limbs that overhang
and drag on roofs. Nails in metal
roofs that became loosened last
summer should be renailed.
Check drainage around all farm
buildings, because water that
stands under structures can cause
plenty of trouble. With hard win
ter freezes, foundations or piers
may shift under the force of Gle.
Clear cutters and downspouts of
dirt, trash, leaves and other debris.
Make sure water pipes are covered
deep enough to prevent breaking
or freezing.
Another step in winterizing the
farm home is to get floor furnaces,
heaters and fireplaces in top oper-
ating condition. Make sure there
are no gas leaks and that all burn
ers are adjusted to prevent the es-
Gaping of gas fumes.

NEEDLESS ACCIDENTS
Obey Law and Common Sense
Rules of Safety

Obey Law and Common Sense
Rules of Safety
Most pedestrian accidents are
needless"
F. j. Jamison, Assistant Man
ager of the Delaware Safety Coun-
Gil made that observation in speak
ing in behalf of the November pc
destrian safety program his group
is sponsoring in cooperation with
the National Safety Council.
"In most pedestrian traffic fatal
ities," Mr.. Jamison said, "the pc
destrian is violating the law or
the common sense rules of safety"
Statistics on last years motor
vehicle deaths, he said show that 80
per cent of pedestrians killed in cit
les and towns were crossing
streets between intersections,
while another 10 percent either
were crossing at intersections
against the signal or crossing di-
agonally.
Another 25 per cent were cross
ing intersections where there was
no signal" Mr.. Jamison said.
Certainly many of these accidents
would not have occurred if the pc
destrians had exercised caution.
They literally walked themselves
to DEATH"
To be safe-and stay alive-in
traffic, Mr.. Jamison listed IL rules
for pedestrians. They follow:
1. Cross streets at Corners only.
2. Never walk into the street
from between parked cars.
8. Obey traffic signs and signals
cross on Green or Walk only.
4. Wait on sidewalk-not in
street-for Green light (or Walk
or for gap in traffic if corner has
no traffic signal.
5. Cross streets in crosswalks--
don't cross intersections diagonal
ly.
6. Look Left and then Right for
traffic while crossing. Watch
sharply for turning cars.
z. After getting off bus or street
car, don't go around it, front or
rear. Wait until it leaves before
crossing.
s. Don't cross street when in un-
fit physical condition. Get glasses
if your eyes are bad.
Don't play in or run into the
street.
10. At night in poorly lighted
streets carry something white.
Don't rely on drivers seeing you.
IL. Walk on Left facing traffic
where there are no sidewalks.
