Hurry: Many, many times daily
{ do we hear that word, hurry.
| Its one of the deadliest words in
this tremedous age of hurry, of rush
and worry. Of desire to get ahead
of the other fellow. |
I have before me a little booklet
of eighteen pages which was sent to
me by the Chief Signal engineer of
the Pennsylvania railroad system.
In it he makes plain some rather
startling facts about hurry and his
study of methods of saving the lives
of people who are in too much of a
hurry. ;
I wish I could just copy the con-
tents of the booklet and let you read
all of it, because it is not only in-
teresting but illuminating.
Now we expect the railroad trains
to be in a hurry but as a matter of
fact they seldom are permitted to
hurry. Always the first considera-
tion is safety. Better to be an hour
or several hours late than to kill
some human being, but every day

we hear or know of one or several
people being killed for the sake of
only a moment's time.
A stop of ten seconds by the driv-
er of an automobile before crossing
the railroad tracks would prevent
75 per cent of the crossing accidents.
During the year 1922 there were
just 72 people killed in the entire
United States by railroad collision
and during that same period 11,000
people were killed by automobiles.

Lancaster County
Farm Bureau News
WEEKLY LETTER WRITTEN EX-
PRESSLY FOR THE BULLETIN
BY THIS WELL KNOWN OR-
GANIZATION
Members of the Lancaster County
Farm Bureau in every section of the
county received checks from the Co-
operative Commodity Division of the
Bureau this week. The checks ag-
gregated about $8,000. Not a large
amount when distributed over sever-
al hundred farmers, but the signifi-
cance attached to the small slips of
paper is of such far-reaching conse-
quence that history has been made,
by their distribution.
The sending of the cheeks marks
the close of the spring fertilizer pur-
chase for the members ef the Bu-
reau by the Commodity Division.
The spring fertilizer pu ase was
conducted ng re different
lines than have ever » been at-
tempted in Lanecas County and
was and test of the Lancaster
County farmer's belief in the prinei-
ples of co-operation.
The fertilizers were sold to all far
mers, members and non- members
alike, at the prevaling market prices.
At the close of the purchase, mem-
bers were given a rebate based or
the actual cost of the materials. The
rebates in several ran to
almost $200 on a single farmer’s or-
der. No one but the Manager of the
Commodity Division had an inkling
as to how much the rebate per ton
would be. The fertilizers were pur-
chased by the farmer members of
the Bureau on Faith, Faith in their
organization which they had them-
selves created, faith in the principles
of co-operation ‘and the faith that
must lie at the base of every enter-
prise—faith in their fellow-men.
When it is considered that less
than four per cent of the farmers in
the county took part in this pur-
chase, the possibilities that exist
when the remainder of the 11,000
farmers of Lanacster County join
hands in the organization may be
estimated. The $8,000 which was
sent to farmers as a rebate on their
fertilizers represents a direct saving
o them through their co-operation
with their fellow-farmers, since the
instances
{ just issued in book form by the as-|
sociation, and put on sale at $3 a!
orginal price of the materials was at
the current market level. It is safc
to state that if but one-half of the
farmer population of the county
joined hands in this undertaking, the
results would be stupendous.
