EATON INSURANCE AGENCY LIMITED General Insurance Seaforth Farmers Co-operative Fewer farmers but accidents increase 4 Ip The accidental death rate on by estimate, than the national the farm is 20 per cent higher, average, according to the Canada Safety ouncil. In its national campaign, so Farm Safety Week, July 25 to 31, the Council stresses the need for more safety practices and caution in everyday farm activi- ties. The campaign is co-spon- sored by the Canadian Farm and Industrial Equipment Institute. The need for such a campaign 4 is underlined by the fact that, while the farm accident rate is higher than the average for Canada, the percentage ofCanad- tans engaged in farming has been declining, The paradoxical ratio of a high farm accident rate to a de- 01 creasing percentage of the population in farming is partly explained by the increasing use of more powerful and complicated machinery. But the basic cause of accidents -- on the farm or off -- is human neglect of safety wt procedures' and thoughtlessness by farm residents themselves. In one year accidents take the lives of approximately 1,400 Canadian farm and rural resi- dents. They injure about 25,000 of them and permanently disablq around 1,500. Studies show that farm ov machinery fatalities per 100,000 farmers doubled in the past de- News of Correspondent Miss Jean Copeland Misses Margaret Parkinson, Cynthia Copeland and Joan Ross and Lorie Webb have been hon- e, daying at Camp Bimini this week. Mr. and Mrs. Norman Robin- son of Anderson and my. and Mrs. Frank Kelland of Londesboro visited on Thursday evening with Mrs.' Arthur Hopkin. • Rev. J. P. Cooke, and Mrs. Cooke of TharnesfOrd and Mrs. Jack Cooke of Ingersoll visited sr • Y • code. Of all fatal machinery, accidents, for example, 78 per cent Involve tractors and of these more than half, , are overturn accidents. Following the tractor, farm machines most .commonly involved in fatal-accidents are combines, balers, corn pickers, forage harvesters and spreaders. Tftb principal type of farm machinery accident involves the victim being caught in machines or being crushed, Many farmers fall to keep guards and shielding in place or they attempt . to service equipment while it is under power. In some accidents they have fallen from moving equipment. According to national studies, 72 per cent of accidents involving rural residents occur on the farm or in the farm home and 28 per cent off the farm. On the farm, 45 per cent of the accidents happen in the farm yard, 28 per cent in the field and 27 per cent in and around the home. Off the farm, 42 per cent are on main highways, 30 per cent On secondary roads and 28 per cent elsewhere. Youngsters are distressingly significant in the farm accident statistics. Ten per cent of farm machinery deaths occur in the under-10 , age group. A further 16 per cent involve the 10-19 age group, ail of Whom are killed in averturns or are crushed. itChildren and young people who lack the physical capacity, experience and judgement, should not be permitted to operate trac- tors and farm machinery", is the warning given by the Canada Safety Council and the. Canadian Farm and Industrial Equipment Institute. The organizations also point out that the 'practice of allowing children or even adults to ride as passengers on tractors and farm equipment should not be permitted. Fuels, olLs and greases re- quire .safe handling too. Accidents result in lack of knowledge and carelessness in the handling andAtorage of petro- leum products and in refueling equipment. Some farmers, their employees and families still forget to turn off switches while fueling is being carried Auk Another exampie of fire clanger is the re-starting of a hot motor when fuel has been spilled on it or near it, In the farm home, common types of accidents are falls, fire, poisoning and suffocation.IVIaking a home neater and more orderly makes it safer. The handling of agricultural chernicalsis another activity that can cause poisoning" accidents when proper pro- cedures and storing are not kept, in mind. ip its plea to all farm and other rural residentS to help "weed out farm hazards", the Canada Safety Council points out that the responsibility of prevent- ing the accidents rests with everyone engaged directly or in- directly with the farming industry.
