Eight Ohioans Die
Each Week I'm
Farm Accidents

Eight Ohio farm people will die ir
accidents this week. Most of them will
be men and boys. Falls and motor
vehicles will take the heaviest death
toll.
These grim predictions can be as
sumed from information contained ir
new Agricultural Extension Serv.
ice bulletin, Lets Curb Farm Fatal
ities," written by r. H. Baker, as
sociate professor of agricultural eco
nomics and rural sociology. and w. E
Stuckey, extension safety specialist,
Ohio State university.
Here are some other facts the au-
thors mention in the bulletin:
During a lifetime of 60 years you
have about one chance in 33 of dying
in an accident.
Sixty serious non-fatal accidents oc-
cur to farm people in Ohio for every
fatal accident.
Twenty-six per cent of the acciden-
tai deaths result from falls and 81
per cent from misuse of motor We
hicle.
Forty-one per cent of the acciden
! tai deaths to Ohio farm people occur
while the persons are off the farm
There were 20 per cent fewer fa
tai accidents in Ohio in 1856 than ir
1916.
