anyone and everyone else alarmed by the increasing number of accidents and fatali ties on ontario farms as indi cated by a recent survey hon w a goodfellow minister of agriculture has announced his intention of setting up a farm safety council to which would be entrusted the task of draw ing up a program designed to reduce the incidence of farm ac cidents the council will be composed of representatives of the farm ing community organizations within the field of agriculture and officials of the ontario de partment of agriculture it is a regrettable fact that agriculture has become one of the most hazardous of occupa tions said mr goodfellow re cent surveys have shown that agriculture workers had an ac cident death rate of 60 per 100- 000 as compared to 25 per 100- 000 for industrial workers of all types nonfatal accidents are also higher for farm workers than those engaged in other forms of industry mr goodfellow said that the first step in combatting the sit uation had bsen taken with the setting up of a farm accident survey in march he was confi dent that on the basis of the in formation obtained a realistic program of farm and home safe ty could be developed far too often we read of death or injury resulting from carelessness in the operation of farm machinery said the min ister while mechanization has lightened many farm tasks there is every indication that too high a price is being paid in human life and injury i am confident that the appointment of a farm safety council will do much to correct this situa tion the ontario farm accident survey

goodfellow in paying tribute to the work of the farm people and farm org anizations that are conducting the accident survey the vol untary work of these interested people has been a real service to
