Thomas Use Appliances Safely Widespread use of household equipment But it’s also increased the hazards drudgery in the home. to your family’s safety. According to the United TR has reduced States Public Health Service, about 25 thousand people each year are injured when they use heaters, ranges, washers and power mowers. The prob- lem is so serious that Cong ress established a National Commission on Product Saf- ety to study products on the market, policies of manufac- turers and legislation needs. But no laws can enforce the safe use of appliances, How you use the products de termines to a great extent just how safe such products are. Protection built into ap pliances can be offset by un safe practices when you are using them. You must uncon- sciously learn and practice safe work patterns until they become habit. And follow the manufacturer's instructions for effective as’ well as safe use of any appliance in your home. Safety begins when you sel- ect and install an appliance. Choose those that have indus- tries’ seals of approval, install them according to the manu facturer’s specifications, and then use them in a safe way. While laws and the manu facturers of appliances are vvorking to further improve ¢ppliance safety, a large share of the responsibility, lies with you, the user, of any house- hold appliances. * * * Take Time To Relax During Vacation “Relax and don’t jam your summertime vacation or holi- day weekends so full of acti. vity that it becomes hectic, tiring and unsafe.

Take time to learn how to get in touch with a doctor if your vacation place is away from your usual stomping grounds, Good Nitrogen Sources Vegetable growers who are also poultrymen have a good source of nitrogen fertilizer in dried poultry manure but should add phosphorus and potash based on soil tests, ac- cording to Dr. Ernest L. Bergman, professor of plant nutrition at Penn State. Unless phosphorus and pot- ash are added, the money saved in using poultry man- ure will be lost in lower than normal crop yields, Dr. Berg- man stated recently at the an- nual meeting of the Penna. Vegetable Growers Assoc. at University Park, He said con- siderable numbers of vege. table producers are also poul- trymen or have ready access to poultry manure. Yields of tomatoes were used as an example, from studies at the Horticultural Research Farm of the Agri- cultural Experiment Station at Penn State. Best yields of tomatoes were obtained by using 1700 pounds of dried poultry manure per acre, sup- plemented with 500 pounds of phosphorus per acre and 300 pounds of magnesium ner acre. These applications pro- duced over 21 tons of toma- toes: per acre—one ton great- er than yields from strictly commercial fertilizer without magnesium. The vegetable grower-poul- tryman gains nothing by putting on very high rates of dried poultry manure, hoping to offset the lack of phosphor- us: and magnesium, Dr, Berg- man pointed out. He said such a practice may upset the nutrient balance by add- ing too much nitrogen. The usual recommendation for field tomatoes is 100 pounds of nitrogen per acre. Phos- phorus, potash. and magnes- ium applications, as well as liming, are based on soil tests. Dr. Bergman says it is im- portant to know the moisture level of the dried poultry ma- nure. Nutrient content of the manure changes with adjust- ments in moisture level. In the trials by Dr. Berg).aan & Associates, the 13 per cent moisture content supplied a product equal to 6-4-3 fertil- izer. Recent developments in poultry manure drying by Dr. Glenn O. Bressler at Penn State have made it possible to- reduce the bulk weight of poultry manure while impro- ving the ease of handling the product, The dried manure has also been used success- fully in hydroseeding high- way right-of-ways as well as coal mine spoil and refuse banks.

In 1968, latest year for which statistics are available, the forests of the state added 681 million cubic feet of wood to their growing stock—trees five inches or more in diame- ter. Growing stock losses to disease and fire amounted to 66 million cubic feet, and har- vests took 202 million cubic feet, leaving a new growth of 413 million cu. feet of wood. Truck registrations totaled 16.959,182 in 1969. An addi- tional 911,825 trucks were owned by federal, state, and local governments, excluding the military.
