Little Children
Frequent Victims
Of Pesticides
HER SHE Y, Pa, May 21 Three
of every four accidental deaths
attributed to farm and garden
spray materials occurred among
children under ten years of age,
and 90 per cent of those were
five years of age, the annual
Pennsylvania Farm Safety Insti
tute was told here today.
Proper storage of pesticides
would have avaided most of these
[accidents according to Jack Dree
sen, herbicide specialist with the
National Agricultural Chemicals
Association, Washington, D. C.
Farmers have the responsibility
of preventing injury to them
selves to their families and neigh
bors in the use of all pesticides
and also must avoid unnecessary
contamination of foods, Dreesen
declared. Pesticides and other
poisonous chemicals must be
stored out of reach of children
who may mistake them for sugar
or other food, he added.
The institute was told there
are more than 100 laws in the
United States governing the sale,
use and ditsnbution of pesticides
Pennsylvania laws were reviewed
by Delmar K. Myers, Bureau of
Foods and Chemistry, State De
partment of Agriculture. He urg
ed all users to read and follow
directions on labels of pesticide
containers
The meeting was sponsored by
the Pennsylvania Farm Safety
Council which elected Harold T.
Howell, Harrisburg Patriot farm
editor as president. Other officers
include Frank Anthony, State
College, Ist vice president, R. N-
Benjamin, New Cumberland, 2nd
vice president, Norman F. Reber,
Pennsylvania Farmer field editor,
secretary, and Loyall D Odhner,
Pennsylvania Chain Store Coun
cil, treasurer Howell urged wide
observance of Farm Safety Week

L H Bull, State Deputy Sec
retary of Agriculture and general
chairman for the 16th National
Plowing Contest and Conservation
Exposition to be held Aug 21-22

Ralph Patterson, Penn State Uni
versity extension specialist and
chairman of the plowing contest
committee, led institute members
on a tour of the contest site on
the Milton Hersbey Farms.

144,273 acres harvested in 1957,
by far the smallest acreage since
1939.
If the acreage reported by
growers for harvest materializes,
and yields turn out as expected,
production will run about 119.6
