Fatalities on Farm
Oregon farms continue to make
news for their owners, operators
and hired hands throughout the
year in a steady stream of news
accounts published in local pa
pers relating farm accidents that
result in death, permanent in
jury or work time-loss for their
victims, according to the Oregon
Farm Safety council, which adds
that this week, July 23 to 29, is
National Farm Safety week.
A news clipping survey kept
by the council recorded 36 deaths
from farm accidents during the
calendar year of 1949 as compar
ed with 34 deaths for the previ
ous year. Tractors continue to
lead as contributing factors for
accidents, accounting for 13 of
the 36 deaths counted.
Purpose of National Farm Saf.
ety week is to encourage all
farm residents to learn and obey
farm safety rules.
The dubious honor of being in
volved in the state's most unus

an Individual who received pain
ful cuts resulting from kicking
out a window.
Overturning accounted for
nine of the tractor deaths, two
of them involving children.

Where in the world
would you make a landing?
Suppose we didn't have Reddy Kilowatt here with us now,
doing all his magic services for just a few pennies ;i day.
Suppose he were just cruising around in the strato
sphere, looking over the world for a likely place to land.
Which country would you advise htm to choose as a
place of opportunity and individual freedom?
Where would Reddy find the most prosperous and pro
gressive people, able and willing to take advantage of die
wonderful things he has to offer?
Where would Reddy find a government which would
let him be a free and self-reliant citizen, instead ut making
him a dull slave of political commissars?
Where, in the world of today, is the best place you
know for an energetic young fellow to live and work? i
We think your answer would he the same as ours -the
United States of America !
Hut what could you say if the government here owned
the railroads, the mines, the electric companies, the house
you lived in and the medical clinic where you and yor
family had to go for treatment?
Where amid you find freedom if it ceased to exist here?
That is something to think about when you read or hear
of soda list-minded people urging Uncle Sam to go step
lv tep down the road which always has ended in disaster.
