school sections in the next 12 months agricultural representative w m coekburn of newmarket and his assist ant ray smith emphasized that all reports are confidential even to the point where neither the name nor address of the accident victim is included in the report the purpose of the survey is to prepare for a farm safety program such as has reduced accidents in industrial plants over the past forty years with this survey sponsored by the ontario department of agricul ture and organized with the cooperation of the federation of agriculture womens insti tutes junior farmer associa tions and in fact all farm org anizations many deaths and less serious accidents can be avoided a tabulation of accidents showing time of day ages ma chinery involved and numerous other factors will help to de

other rooms in the home combined a large part of these home accidents result from falls which while not usually fatal cause many broken bones and bruises and add up to an alarm ing medical bill most of these falls are a re sult of carelessness states har old e wright farm safety spe cialist ontario department of agriculture none of us like to admit to being careless but we probably all lapse at one time or another it is much easier to place those jars on the second step instead of carrying them down to the basement we fully intend to take them down next time were going unfortunate ly this temporary storage be comes a handy spot for over shoes baskets the dustmop and a half a dozen other things that make it hardly worth a separate trip to the basement all goes well until you are car rying that large carton down the stairs and suddenly there is no stair but a fruit jar under your foot and youre on the roller coaster remember that falls are one of the main classes of accidents and cause a great number of broken bones and medical bills be careful and dont have a fall this spring winter weather delays seed cleaning deep snow and adverse wea ther conditions are causing a serious delay in custom seed cleaning reports wm taylor field crops branch ontario de partment of agriculture each year plants report a rush that taxes both men and machines and some customers who leave things to the last minute sim ply cannot be accommodated this year farmers are urged to get their seed to the seed cleaning plants as soon as road conditions permit failure to do this may result in

county council to investigate the need for a new home for the aged in the county at its initial meeting irving boigon was engaged to prepare preliminary plans york manor in our opinion has been criticized unjustly in the past year said the warden the worst possible picture of this institution has been pre sented to the public through the press with little attention being given the many improvements made at the home in recent years the home in its present con dition is more fireproof than it was prior to the division of the county since january 1954 many improvements have been made all of which have lessen ed the fire hazard prior to the passing of the municipality of metropolitan ioronto act the old county had planned to replace york manor unly basic maintenance work had been done there for some jv the formation of tl k and the decision to build the new home for the aged greenacres as a metro politan toronto home the con tinuing county began extensive renovations at york

manor for a new fire alarm system fire doors and the fireproofing of floors ceilings and stairways the warden explained a heat actuated system was installed in 1955 connected di rectly with the newmarket fire department it is extremely sen sitive on january 28 when a workman welding pipes with a blow torch in the laundry room set off this fire alarm system the newmarket brigade was at york manor in four minutes a false alarm in 1959 requir ed evacuation of all residents from the home this was com pleted in less than five minutes with little commotion and no panic five bedridden patients
