Block & Bridle tours
Forty-two members of the Block and Bridle Club will
visit several research farms, livestock operations and other
campuses as a part of their annual spring tour, April
1-4.
The trip, which will cover parts of Nebraska, Kansas,
Missouri and Iowa, encompassing more than 1300 miles.
According to Jack Adkins, tour chairman, the purpose
of the trip is to acquaint members of the Block and
Bridle Club with modern technology and careers available
in the field of animal science.
Farm safety
investigated
A state-wide farm safety
survey will be conducted this
year, according to RoIIen D.
Schnieder, Extension Safety
Specialist at the University of
Nebraska.
"This study is designed to
find out the number of ac
cidents that occur on farms
within various states,"
Schnieder said recently.
Schnieder said that for
survey purposes the term "ac
cident" is being limited to
those which keep people from
working one half day or more,
one requiring the services of a
physician, or one which the
family doctor is consulted by
phone for diagnosis.
A farm is defined as having
three acres or more or $250 in
come, he said.
Schnieder explained that this
definition is used on the na
tional level and although most
farms in Nebraska average
approximately 400 acres, in
some states there are poultry,
fruit, or garden farms that
would be included in this
definition.
On April 1, the Interviewers
will begin conducting the
survey by first having the
families fill out a master sheet.
The sheet includes questions on
topics such as the number of
hours spent by the family on
the farm operation, the size of
the farm and the number of
members in the family. ,
After the data sheet Is com
plete, the families will be in-
PAGE 8
terviewed regarding any ac
cidents that occured from
January 1 to April 1. If an ac
cident has occurred, they will
then fill out a specific form for
that type of accident. If no ac
cidents have occurred, no ad
ditional information will be re
quired for that period.
This process will be repeated
on July 1 and October 1 to
determine accidents occurring
in those intervals of time.
On January 1, 1971, the
families will be interviewed for
the final time and the survey
results will be compiled.
Schnieder described t h e
present farm safety statistics
as "piecemeal." However, he
added, some good farm safety
studies have been conducted
which deal with one segment of
farm accidents such as falls.
The survey is being con
nected on the natonal level and
other states such as Ohio,
Michigan, Oregon, Wyoming,
Minnesota, Wisconsin and New
York are participating, he said.

There has always been a
definite difference between
students the city campus stu
dent and the east campus stu
dent, according to Margaret
Fedde, professor emeritus of
home economics.
Miss Fedde, 85, who was
chairman of the school of home
economics from 1919 until 1953,
attributed the split between the
campuses to economic and
educational differences
between the parents of students
in the two groups.
Until recently, she said, "the
farmers as a whole were
mostly a non-educated, lower
income group in comparison to
the city dwellers."
As a result, the students on
East Campus were less affluent
and found it necessary to bor
row money and work in order
to finance their education, she
explained.
"Since this was not true of
the majority of city campus
students, there was definite
split between the two cam
puses," she said.
Today the public's attitude
toward agriculture has
gradually changed because the
educational status of the
farmer is changing, she said.
"Agriculture is no longer
looked down on, because it is
highly regarded as necessary
for maintaining the world's
population," she added.

The educational and struc
tural changes of East Campus
have been vast, Miss Fedde
said. When she became head of
the School of Home Economics
in 1919, there were approx
imately 75 students enrolled in
he school. When she retired in
1951, the number had grown to
al "ost 600 students.
Miss Fedde said that she was
the first to introduce men into
the field of home economics at
NU.
She also introduced the child
development' program into
home economics.
"Although there was opposi.
tion to the program at its
beginning, at the end of the
first year of the program, the
dean told us it was the best
thing we were doing in the
whole school," she said.
Many changes have also
come about in housing as a
result of Miss Fedde's work.
During the depression in the
thirties, many girls had the
desire but not the money for
housing in order to go to col
lege, she said.
Love Hall was built In order
to give financially needy
women students a place to
live.
"During the depression, the
girls brought canned food3
from home and helped prepare
the meals for each other in
order to cut down on the cost of
housing," she said.
"For this reason, I'm
especially proud of Love Hall,"
she said.
