Rapp - Chats
By W. iL LYNF

These days anyone driving a licensed vehicle is likely to top a hill on our highways and suddenly be “on top” of a tractor, pulling a load of hay, sprayer or even a zigzagging hay rake. Such practices are indeed necessary, nevertheless are extremely hazardous.
Mr. Farmer: Why not put a piece of red cloth on the end of a pole and tie the pole in an upright position on the back of the vehicle being towed? The pole should be about 10 feet tall so the approaching driver could see the red flag above the crest of the hill.
Had such a simple warning device been attached to a wagon of hay, the accident which occurred recently in Culpeper County, resulting in death, may have been avoided. Certainly one life saved would more than offset the time and effort necessary to install a red flag on a pole.
