JULY 24,1974 Twice Told Tales DISCUSS HEALTH ORDINANCE - Revisions to the proposed County Health ordinance were discussed at a public hearingheld recently at the McHenry county courthouse.

Sitting on the panel, from left, are Dr. D.V. Johnson, director of Veterinary health, Richard Wissell, McHenry county public health director, and Attorney Regina Narasis, chairman of the hearing. Agricultural Mishaps Kill 2,200 In 1973 Approximately 2.200 people were killed in agricultural accidents m 1973. according to preliminary estimates by the National Safety council. About 1.500 of the victims were residents of farms and ranches, and the remainng 700 were non­ residents Although the final totals have not been confirmed for 1973. little change is expected from 1972. The 2.200 accidental agricultural work deaths are part of an estimated 14,200 total work deaths in all occupations. A total of more than 6,000 farm and ranch residents died in accidents last year. More than half of these, however, were victims of traffic mishaps. Farm work accidents ranked second as a cause of accidental deaths to farm people, followed by home and all public nonmotor-vehicle accidents. In addition, agricultural work accidents resulted in an estimated 200,000 disabling injuries, many of which involved permanent disability ranging from loss of a part of a finger to complete incapacitation. About^three quarters of the injured ^workers resided on farms Snd ranches. Farm # machinery, falls, animals, and hand and power tools were believed to be major factors in the fatal and non-fatal work injury totals. The farm and ranch home was found to be the most frequent site of non-fatal injuries. The cost of accidents (including fire) to farm people is now approaching $3 billion ^annually in the United States. Farm Safety week is being observed July 25-31.
