This survey is used to determine the 1977 calf crop and the January 1, 1978 Cattle Inventory. The results of this survey will be available for all farmers and ranchers to" use in making their production and marketing plans.

Cooperation by the producer is the key to producers helping themselves. By helping us establish reliable cattle esti- mates, they give themselves a tool to use in their decision making. Survey results will be available January 1978. EFFECT OF HIGHER GRAIN PRICES ON FOOD COSTS Prices for feed grain dipped in extremely low levels at harvest time, but light farm selling and prospects for a strong export demand have increased prices 50 to 75 cents per cwt. since October.

Farmers are also soliciting higher prices by government action. Higher prices for feed grains, such as corn, grain sorghum, and barley have a direct effect on livestock production costs and, eventually, on the cost of meat to the consumer. Grain is the main ingredient in the rations used to finish cattle and hogs for slaughter. Fifty-five to 60 bushels of corn are required to finish a steer or heifer for slaughter, a change in corn prices of Jl per bushel alters the cost required $55 to $60 per head. This amounts to five to six cents per pound on an animal weighing 1,000 1,100 pounds at eight to nine cents per pound on the 625 675 pound beef carcass from that animal, and 11 to 12 cents per nnnnrl nn the 475 500 nnunris of retail cuts provided the con- siimw trnm tnat carcass.

ine average retail pries of beef is currently near $1.40 per Around 11 bushels of corn are required to finish a hog from weaning to 230 pounds slaugh ter weight. An increase of $1 5 per bushel in the price of corn adds almost five cents per pound to the cost of a 230-pound hncr and nhoiit. 8.5 cents Der pound to the average cost of retail cutslfrom that hog. Retail pork prices average about $1.30 per pound. The effect of higher gram costs may not be reflected immediately in Jhe retail meat counter.

Farmers, wholesalers, or retailers may absorb some of the added cost through lower profits or greater losses; but if profit margins are maintained, all increases in production costs must eventually be reflected in higher prices at the consumer level.

Q. Suppose I get into financial difficulties and can't pay my life insurance premiums. What then? A.

All insurance companies have a grace period of 30 days and your insurance will still cover you for that period even if you haven't paid the premium. If you have term insurance and you don't pay the premium, when the grace period is over the policy lapses. But if you have whole life, the policy has' been building up cash value as you paid premiums. One way you can use this cash value is to pay premiums you otherwise couldn't pay, You can also arrange for reduced paid-up insurance. You pay no more premiums, but you're covered for the rest of your life for a smaller amount than originally.

How much depends on how much cash value you have built up. HO Charles EUey, Board Mem ber of tht TriCity C. B. Club, presents 9 check to Murky Sackheim of Brighter Day School.
