We believe many tractor accidents are caused by care- lessness, failure to stop the tractor when making' repairs, or hitching and unhitching other implements, extreme fatigue or lack of sleep, children riding on tractors, allowing children to drive tractors when they are much too young, small and im- mature to handle such a powerful implement; the build of the tractor gives the driver little chance to free himself when the machine upsets, turning too quickly and abruptly. The great majority of people have been trained how, where and when to cross street:. Could people not be trained in the proper use and re- spect for tractors? Advice by sales- men on the radio and by press by constant repetition might impress the people with the necessity for greater precaution, We think a study of electrical in- stallation would be Very beneficial, and also home nursing and First Aid courses are practical for anyone. Free or cheap leaflets on these sub- jects are available. In place of act- ing as a forum group for safety, we think each family unit should take To permit our staff to enjoy a half holiday each week commencing Saturday, April 3, and each Saturday thereafter, our office and mill will close at 12.30 ARE YOU REPAIRING OR BUILDING ?
