Harvest the Rewards in Profit,
Production and Protection . . .
The success of today's highly mechanized
farm depends to an ever-increasing degree on
the safety practiced by today's modern farmer.
When safety is your constant companion, you
run a more efficient and productive farm.
As a modern farmer, you put heavy depend
ence on the proper operation of costly, often
specialized equipment. Be sure it is safe to use
. . . keep all machinery in tip-top shape.
Accidents are fewer when your farm area
and buildings are neat, clean and in good repair.
And even your youngest farmers-to-be should
practice safety. The best way for them to learn
is by following your good example.
Safety is a full time job. Practice it all year
around, and you'll never stop harvesting the
benefits.
