This will be the theme of the sixteenth annual National Farm Safety Week to be observed July 19 to 25. The special week, proclaimed by President Eisenhower, is sponsored jointly by the National Safety Council and the U. S. Department of Agriculture. .The purpose of the observance, says the Council, is to promote safety and accident prevention on American farms -- in the field, in the home and on the highway. Leading farm organizations are endorsing the seven-day safety campaign. Each year more than farm residents are killed in cidents and another million ar injured. There are more actiT dental deaths in farming thanr in any other • major American industry. The National Safety Council said it is urging everyone wjMJi an interest in the welfare xtf farm residents to participate this year's National >, Farm Safety Week. "Safety is something you, can't think about just one week out of the year,** tn^. Council said. "But if everyoneconcentrates on it during Farm Safety Week -- and then practices^ safety the' year 'round, there's bound to be a drop^i accidents," it added.
