FARMING AND SAFETY It should come as a distinct shock to everyone to learn that farming is the third most haz ardous occupation in America. Farmers have always known that their job is a hard one, calling for long hours, careful planning, a keen understanding of the close relationship be-1 tween nature and science that are necessary to produce enough food each year to feed more than 150 million people—not to mention much of the rest of the world. However, perhaps even the farmer does not realize how hazardous his job really is. According to the Association of Casualty Companies, which is cooperating with the president’s conference on industrial safety to emphasize the need for great occupational safety, one farmer in every 15 is temporarily or permanently injured while plowing a field, milking a cow, riding a tractor, or doing any number of other chores. Last year in America, more than 327,0000 farmers suffered disabling injuries on their jobs; 4,700 others weren’t so lucky. They were killed by falls, ma chinery, animals, or other “po tential hazards.” Statistics show that 22 percent of disabling injuries on farms occurred last year between Jan uary and March, 26 percent from April to June, 31 per cent from July to September, and 21 percent in the last quart ter of the year. Japan has seven people per arable acre of land. Japan had 106,000 foreign visitors in 1955. _ ♦♦****< «11 >♦♦♦♦<« ♦♦♦♦• —^^ YOU CAN ... * * < » « » (I !!
