That isn't the Korean war toll. It’s the nation’s accident totals for last year announced by the National Safety Council. “Accident Facts,” the Council’s statistical yearbook, which is just off the press, shows that one person was injured accidentally every three seconds during 1952. Deaths from accidents occurred at the . rate of one every five minutes. During the year, motor vehicle accidents killed at the rate of four persons per hour and injured at a rate of 150 per hour. Drowning Took Toll of 6,800 Lives Last Year CHICOGO — The water’s fine but be careful! Approximately 6,800 persons were drowned last year, accord ing to the 1953 edition of “Acci dent Facts,” the National Safety Council’s statistical yearbook, which is just off the press. About half of these deaths oc curred while the; victims were swimming or playing in the wa ter. The others were nonswim ming fatalities. These included persons falling into water, home accidents involving very young or very old persons, and water transport accidents, such as steve doring, ship repair work and re creational boating.

Bell Jr., livestock spec ialist for the University of Geor gia Agricultural Extension Ser 'vice, said this week that the fu ture for the cattle business in Georgia is bright once the pre sent period of adjustment is past. In a letter to all county agents of the Agricultural Extension Service, Bell took an optimistic view, although he termed the present situation “very critical” — one which will temporary slow up expansion of cattle herds in the state. Bell pointed out that this is an opportune time to improve the quality of Georgia cattle by re placing low grade cattle with high grade animals at little cost. He explained that the large vol ume of high grade beef heifers and cows* moving through mar kets at bargain prices afforded an opportunity to save many years in the grading up of commercial herds in Georgia, provided this is done this year. Bell called attention to six other significant factors in the present beef cattle situation. He said that the spread between prices of poor quality and good quality cattle is widening, which means greater encouragement for improving the breeding. Breed ing herds should be culled close ly and rejects sold before the au tumn seasonal drop in grass cat tle price, he advised. Also, I* said that breeding should be timed to drop winter and early spring calves which gain faster and can be marketed during the seasonal peak in prices. Pointing out that cattle num bers should be adjusted to pas ture and roughage supply, Bell said that farmers with excess pasture and plenty of roughage should find this fall a, profitable time to buy thin cattle chcaf for making grass gains for market late next spring. The livestock specialist said that overhead and operating cost should b^ reduced to a minimum consistent with good management practices. The farmer who fits a beef cattle enterprise into a diversified program is in the best position, he declared.
