It is the responsibility of:
" every farm pond owner to
1 make his pond safe. The first
* rule of safety around the farm
pond is:
' Recreation must be aupervls
ed at ALL times by an adult.
Never: Swim alone; fish
. alone; skate alone; play around
> the pond alone.
Post safety instructions for
boating, swimming and skating.
Mark swimming areas.
If the farm pond is located
so its gets dainage from barnyards
or sewers, or if livestock
are aaowea 10 arm* irom Uie
pond, do not permit swimming
or other recreation because of
sanitary reasons.
Place life saving devioes such
as ring buoys, ropes and long
(poles around swimming areas.
Allow in me water only persons
who know how to swim.
| Encourage children to learn to
I swim.

Don't use a motor too pow

During my younger days i

one or more ponds.

Family Farm Seen
1 Dominant in 1975
>- Will the family farm be dome
inant in 1979?
"Yea," predicts H. L. Stewart,
an economist for USDA's
Agricultural Research Service.
Stewart believes the average
size of family farms will in1
crease, while the total number
of farms will decrease. He
e foresees an increase in the
present trend to adopt laborr
saving and out-put increasing
i improvements essential to economic
survival in competitive
a farming.
i- "Farmers of 1975 will employ
s others to perform more serv9
ices',' he says. He named such '
services as spraying, dusting,
1 fertilizing, more professional
9 management assistance, and
r* help in buying and marketing
l" livestock.
[ "Large-soale livestock feed-j
' ing will become increasingly j
important In the West and!
