•f- Thursday, August 13,195$ IHK HcHENRY PLAINDEALEiii Page Survey Of Police Chiefs Points To Early Evening As Accident Time Vacationing motorists ought to be most alert on the highway >dttring the late afternoon and ••fly evening hours. A survey of several hundred police chiefs in the forty-eight states, conducted by the public education department of a leading insurance company, pointed to this period as the time when most collisions occur in the summer months. Though excessive speed still hbtdg the lead as the greatest sineie cause of accidents, the police chiefs said that the overtired driver, anxious to finish a long trip, accounts for many times more than his normal •hare of crashes during the supmer months. Following the car ahead too closely, and unfamiliarity with local roads and traffic laws also cause more accidents than usual during the height of the vacation season. ' < _ Eighty-five per cent of the police chiefs replying to the survey reported that their communities are affected by the . vacation travel caravan. Many of the police chiefs undertake speial measures to meet the traffic problem created by the vacationing motorist. Among the more usual of these measures are stricter- law enforcement, the recruiting and use of additional help, special safety drives, and temporary rerouting of traffic; Urging . frequent patrol of heavily used roads, Chief Robert .V. Murray of the Washington, D. C. police department stated: "The'frequent appearance of police officers along the roadway is the best reminder to the motorist that he is not the sole user of the highway and that he should comply with traffic regulations." Sergeant Edward H. McF^dden of the accident prevention bureau of the Kansas City police department suggested thai on log trips motorists "pass the steering wheel instead of the bottle." Chief Hector J. Pelletier of Cohasset, Mass., police department advised a vacationing motorist to make a little more use of his head and a little less of ; Mi right foot." flhlef Harry W. Strock of Richland, Wash., urged the development of improved recreational facilities near major communities so . that the public would W encouraged to take shfrter trips; and Chief Neil F. Ailderson of Arcadia, Calif., cafeed "upon the automobile industry to stop publicizing horsepoorer and speed, and to build Farm Notes Old Silage There are a number of authentic cases on record of silage keeping satisfactorily for periods of from ten to twenty years. Once properly stored and cured there is very little change in silage and no reason why it cannot be held indefinitely. Oat Problem Oats are one crop the aeiftntists thought they' had improved to a point where they could overcome disease hazards, but this year's light crop With its heavy rust infection brings the plant breeders face to face with the realization that their work is far from finished. Summing it up, about the time they develop a new variety with resistance to all current races of rust spores Mother Nature .comes up with a new disease to attack ( N the crop. ( Pasture Problems .In Jtfne cattle were waddling about in pastures up to their bellies but in July many of these same pastures had become little more than exercise lots. This happens all too often in many parts of the Corn Belt. Grass comes on with a rush in late May and makes such rapid growth the cattle are unable to keep up with it. The plants become woody and lose much of their palat&bility. By late July and August the mid-summer heat and infrequent rainfall combine to stop growth of the grass and we see too many places where the cattle are ambling aimlessly back and forth in' short pasture or huddling in corners stamping and switching in an effort to keep the flies off. Some day there will be more rotation grazing and in many instances sprinkler . irrigation will be restored too. These could be highly practical, especially oa # dairy farm. - Cattle Markets Following a continued decline1 for the past eight months, the fat cattle > market did a "right about face" and within two weeks in early July some classes of heavy cattle advanced $9.00 per cwt. It is difficult to makej sense out of things sucht as this.' „ New Things In recent years, especially i since the close of World War II,! there has been, 4 continuous and! ever increasing development of j new things in agriculture. Taken I as a whole these changes repre- i sent a virtual revolution. They! have practically put agriculture on an "assembly line" basis. It has been said that mechanization of farming is pretty well advanced but chemicalization tyaa barely started. . Problems - This Week's Big '3a 1. Honey In The Horn The "4" Ace's 2.
