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.

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 • Recall Brodhagen Days.

Unless she has will power to resist these. ex- tras, she should try to substitute fruit or raw vegetables, instead of cakes.

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.

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.
