SOME CRASH For a long time the visitor to the great museum stood gazing at the Egyptian mummy swarthed in ban dages. "Tell me one thing," he ven tured. "What is it, sir?" asked the guide. "Was it a motor or an airplane ac cident?" fik "Don't People Take The Darndest Chances?'' Yes, we do. Buc oddly, riskj taken by the other fellow al ways look more perilous. That's why the man who fails to insure his property doesn't realize his danger until it's too late. How about you? Do you have proper insurance protection ... at lowest pos uble cost? J. H.

The theme of the week, according to H. M. Ellis, in charge of extension agricultural engineer ing at State College, will he the eli mination of unsafe practices. Recent studies, Mr. Ellis says, re veal that unsafe practices continue to be the leading cause of accidents to farm people. A special survey conducted by the National Safety Council shows that about 72 per cent of the accidents involved one or more unsafe acts on the part of the victims. One of every 17 farm residents in the United States will suffer a disabling injury from acci dents in 1949 unless they take extra precautions. A survey of farm work accidents showed that failure t-o use proper equipment was the commonest un safe act for farm accidents. Unsafe practices in dealing with animals was second in importance. Among olher common unsafe acts were knowingly using defective or unguarded equipment, working on or adjusting dangerous moving equipment, handling too heavy loads, and doing work without suf ficient instruction. Special phases of farm safety will be stressed each day of National Farm Safety Week. Sunday will be observed as church day, with the acr cent on "Thou Shalt Not Kill." Monday v ill be home safety day, featuring good housekeeping. Tues day will be livestock safety day, with the accent on the handling ani mals safely. Wednesday will emphasize safety from falls. Thursday will be high way safety day. Friday will be ma chinery safety day. Saturday will be review day, for review of all phases of accident prevention, es pecially the elimination of unsafe practices. Dooryard Garden. Accents Charm of Small Home Simple Beds and Borders following the lines of the paths and building are best for front yard flowers. * Small houses, like small gardens, possess charm, a quality which seems to evade larger and more pretentious creations. And nothing will enhance the charm of a small modern home so much as a door yard garden, gay with flowers. While all flowers are beautiful, and any combination of nature's colors will be harmonious, really stunning effects can be developed by planting colors which harmon ize with the house and its trim. For a house of buff or cream color, for example, blue and white flow ers will provide a delightful fore ground. In the illustration white and blue flowers are grown as borders to the1 path and along the foundation line of the house. No shrubs are used except small evergreens flanking the door, and these should be kept small by annual shearing. Of the flowers suggested, petunias should be started in a seed box, in the house, or in a hot-bed or cold frame, since ninety to one hundred days are required to produce flow ering plants. Cynoglossum, the Chinese for get-me-not, and single asters wilt also bloom earlier, if given a start under protection before it is safe to move them to the garden. They can be sown outdoors,, however, and will flower in sixty days.. Sweet alyssum is easily grown from seed sown direct in the garden. A com pact, dwarf variety should be used, and the plants will do better if thinned out to stand at least six inches apart. When plants begin; to grow "leggy" and flowers to> be fewer, they can-toe sheared like a hedge. Use The Progress Want Ads. They bring results. Interest in the 1949 corn-growing contest between North Carolina and Virginia is growing by leaps and bounds. Farmers from both States are enrolling, anxious to increase their own corn yields and to help their respective States come out on top. The exhibit shown above is being displayed in various localities. In the center appears the trophy which will be presented to the winning State by the Corn Committees of North Carolina and Virginia. It is donated by The National Fertilizer Association.
