Check ,your safety know-how
With safety experts of the Ontario
Department of Agriculture. Know-
ing (and practising) the right one
could save your life.
1. When the speeds of your Trac-`
tor is doubled, the danger of tip-
ping over sideways is:
a. decreased slightly
b. increased two times
c. increased four times
a, increased eight times
2. By replacing the front wheel
unit of a row -crop tractor with a
wide front-end, the danger of .tip-
ping is:
a, increased
b. not affected
c. slightly lessened
d. greatly lessened
3. In collisions involving cars
and tractors:
a. both drivers have equal
chances of being killed ..
b. the driver of the tractor is
much more likely to be kill
ed
c. the driver pf the tractor is
a little more likely to be
killed
d. the driver of the auto is
more likely to be killed
4. Which of the following meth-
ods is the safest way to pull out
of a mudhole or ditch?
a. add weights to the rear
wheels
b. chain a log in front of the
rear wheels
c, back out or be pulled out
with, another tractor
d. remove weight from the
front end.
5. Children are more likely to
have accidents while; operating
tractors because of all the l follow-
ing reasons, except one:
a. they often lack judgment
that comes from years of
experience
b. they sometimes do not have
enough strength to handle
-emergency situations
c. their reaction time is slower
ri. most machinery isn't adapt-
' ed to fit the size of chil-
' dren '
6, By increasing the width" be-
tween the rear wheels the danger
of side' tipping is:
a. increased
• b. decreased
c. not changed at all
d.'.done away with
ANSWERS:
1. When the speed is doubled,
the danger of tipping over side:
ways is four 'times as great. When
turning, the tipping force is in pro-
portion to the square of the speed.
Even when the' tractor operator is
trying to drive straight ahead, this
rule still holds because every bump
turns the tractor to some extent,
Three times the' speed caused nine
times the tipping hazard.
2. The danger of tipping is great-
ly decreased. When the wheels are
placed farther apart, the tipping
axis 'is 'moved farther from the
centre of gravity. Therefore, wide
frontend tractors are less likely to
upset sideways.
3. The driver of the tractor is
much more likely to be killed. It's
reasonable to be expected since a
farmer has practically, no protec-
tion when seated on a tractor. The
worst record ever reported in one
State in the U.S. showed that 17
tractor operators died compared to
one car driver in tractor -car col-
lisions.
4. The safest way to get out of
a mudhole or ditch is to back out
or be pulled out. All others in-
crease the danger of tipping over
backwards, By backing out you
won't tip backwards. If this doesn't
work, hitch .on to another tractor
or truck.
5. Children are not more likely
to have accidents while operating
tractors because of slower reac-
tion time. They react more quick
ly than adults. But lack of judg-
ment, lack of strength, and mach-
inery not adapted to fit the sine
of children account for the many
tractor accidents involving young
drivers.
6. If you •increase the width of
the rear wheels, the danger of
side -tipping is decreased. Reaspn;
•the tipping axis is farther away
-from the centre of gravity. Keep
the wheels at full width except
when closer spacing is needed for
a particular job.
A man, after admiring a new -
model car in the window of a
downtown automobile concern
went inside and bought the car.
"Would you like to take it with
you now?" the salesman beamed
at him.
"No," murmured the man re-
flectively. "I think I'll just let it
stay where it is.. I'II never find an-
other parking place this good."'
Getting To Know You
Tooth decay frequently attacks
the first teeth of very young chil-
dren. Because of the importance
of these first teeth repaired as
soon as dental caries appear, a
child should pay his -.first visit to
the dentist at the age of two and
a half. In order to dispel any fears
he may have, the youngster's first
visit should be a pleasant one. The
dentist can examine and clean the
teeth and show the child the cor-
rect way to use his own tooth
brush. The dental chair should
prove 0 great attractipn.

Heart Trouble
Heart disease is a term used to
cover many different ailments of
the heart. In some major forms of
heart disease, the patient may be
incapacitated, while other cases
may be so mild that by following
his, doctor's orders, the patient can
ihet an almost normal life. CO -
operation with the doctor in regard
to diet, exercise and rest is im-
portant to the well-beingof the
heart patient.

Thought For the Aged
One Canadian city made an ef-
fort to locate lonely old people and
to find out their heeds and prob-
lems. Volunteers went from house
to houseand talked to senior citi-
zens. It was found that many of
them wished to be visited by some-
one from a church, a specific or-
ganization, or by congenial con-
temporaries. If other communi-
ties followed this example, the
loneliness of old age might cease
to be one of. the problems that
affect both mental and physical

throughout Canada and the U.S.
as an excellent trumpeter.
BRODHAGEN—Charles Brodhag-
en, founder of this community 100
years ago, is called "a versatile

The title is fitting. He was a
farmer, hotelkeeper, postmaster,

Cook Should Count Calories
The housewife who-, is a good
cook may be tempted to sample
her cakes and most of the things
she prepares, without .realizing that
all these tastings won't help to
keep her weight down. Unless she
has will power to resist these. ex-
tras, she should try to substitute
fruit or raw vegetables, instead of
cakes. Keeping track of the cal-
ories represented by the frequent
samplings and subtracting them,
from her regular desserts might
help to keep her weight down.

Avoid Food Poisoning
To keep food safe from the 'bac-
teria that causes food poisoning,
it must be handled with, care and
stored under safe conditions. In
the home, prepared foods contain-
ing eggs, milk, meat, gravy, may
onnaise, creamy fillings or._poultry
dressing should be refrigerated, or
else' used within two hopes of pre-
• para tion.

merchant t a i l o r bandmaster,
music teacher, and, as the history
book states, "notwithstanding his
multifarious duties, he was equal
to them all, discharging the de-
mands of each in a manner cred-
itable to himself."
Actually, Charles Brodhagen and
family settled on lot 31, concession
8, of Logan township, 100 rods
south 'of the present community.
His first task was to open a saw-
mill and .house -post office, the lat-
ter being expanded later to include
a dance hall and tavern.
The neighboring lot;on which
most of the village is now situ-
ated, was purchased by Frederick
Ahrens from the Canada Company.
In the 1880's, the Brodhagen
family moved front, the commun-
ity, the first building was disman-
tled and used for other 'buildings;
all that remains of the first set-
tlers is a well dug in the 1890's,
Buildings of the 1880's included
a blacksmith and carriage shop,
one general store and post office,
seven houses, a red school house
and a frame church building.
The planing mill in the commun-
ity 'has had its share of misfor-
tune. In the 1890's it was Ievelled
by a fire which damaged nearby
buildings. It was replaced, but lev-
elled again in the 1920's by fire,.
At Brodhagen is St. Peter's
Evangelical Lutheran Church, built
to accommodate the residents of
this section lie 1868 at a cost of
$1,200.
Many Brodhagen pioneers were
known for their musical ability.
More than 55 years ago, the Brod-.
hagen Brass Band was organized.
A descendant of Charles Brod-
hagen, David Brodhagen, of 323
Today, Brodhagen has two gen-
eral stores, one hardware,„ store,
one plumbing, shop, ao egg grading
station, two garages, one barber-
shop, a planing mill, and post of-
fice. During the past year, a large
feed mill was erected on the east-
erly limits; final touches are now
being added te. the large Brodhag-
en and District Community Hall.
The population today is about
120, and the assessment $100,000.
The community is linked by a pav-
ed road to Highway 23 at Born-
holm, and in the near future, the
road to Dublin will, likely be paved.
