Farm economists and animal husbandmen see at least three major changes in the beef catt'e picture within the next five years. / First, they see a big expansion in Cow herds in the areas that are adapted to stocker and feeder calf production. Stocker and feeder calf producers should have at least 150 cows in beef herds in those areas with large acreages of grass. These acreages .. lend themselves to a smaller investment per animal unit than in other areas. A continuation of iarge scale commercial feed lots, which in itself has been the most noteworthy change in the cattle picture in the last ten years, is expected to continue. This is the second big change seen. Sufficient feed, capital and good management will encourage this trend. Other factors influencing its success will be more efficient use of labor due to mechanical devices,, largescale buying and selling to re move market hazards, and the use of the latest management and nutritional devices. The third significant change . . . closely related to the second . . . will be more specialized systems of beef produc tkm. Not long ago, it was taught that the livesfeckman who produced his own calves, grew his own feed and sold a finished product, was in a i'airly secure position. Today, due to increased expenses, a better use of his labor and raw material in the way of grass, roughage and grain may call for expansion in. just one phase of beef production. Possibly instead of wintering, summering and fall feeding, he should handle more cattle and winter them only, thus enabling some other producer, who is better equipped, to handle the next phase. In this slow but sure process of integrated farming, the farmer is losing some of his valued independence of operation, but along with it, should be rewarded with a more certain market for his product in terms of quantity and price. Kansas university spokesmen say that food chains and other comparable units nearer the consumer will be dictating specifications for farm products -- with fewer decisions being left to the farmer. It is felt that there is a rather fine line between the degree of ' independence remaining with the owner as opposed This w&B have a tremendou* effect u£on education and training, merchandising, ar.d community life. Again, according to the Department of Agriculture, . there were 22 million farm youths in 1954 in the 10 to 19 age bracket. Iti the decade - of 1954-64 only about 225,000 farms pjrcnjfuciiLg $5,000 or more of sales will become available through death or retirement of operators This means an increasing number of rural and farm youths will be entering occupations other than farming. While farms are increasing in size and ^ efficiency, farms are becoming „ mixed-income communities. More than onethird of fanners how work iOO days or more off the farms. This "melting pot" of ex-farmers with people of diverse occupations- will continue, causing vast revisions in rural industry development and business centers. Taxation and zoning problems wfll increase. School curricula and health and sanitation programs wfflj need drastic adjustment. Now, to the other trend -- our growing population and greater food needs. . Economists say that our ag rtciflture will have to show a production increase of 35 to 45 per cent to feed a population in 1975 that is expected to reach a quarter of a billion people. They say it will have to be d o n e on a p p r o x i m a t e l y t h e same acreage we have now and with about 33 per cent fewer farmers! More farm technology and more industry-type farming will do it, they say. In fact, they say that agriculture will become one of the higher capital- using industries in t n e country, in fifteen years. It's pretty close to that right now. The average income of comrftefcial farms will be $17,000 in 1975, compared to $7,500 now. ,s This production goai represents a lot of stepped-up technology and seems to cancel out the argument of those who have said too much money is being spent on research -- which they say just feeds our surplus problem. This changing agriculture means adjustments all the way arounld. It will create new businesses for some and alter ways of life, and vocations for others. Let's hope that those affected by all this will see the need for adjustment and make them in fashion that wiM be painless and fruitful for our economy and society. SUBSIDY BATTLE PRODUCES HEAT, BUT LITTLE LIGHT The Drivers Seat Whether it's Jingle bells or firecrackers that characterize the holiday,. you can be sure that any national recess .from work will be marked "by a surge in the number of cars on the roads. Much of this travel will be at night. People, being people, just naturally want to squeeze the last little bit1 of companionship and enjoyment into the allotted time. This often means leaving the night before, if any appreciable driving distance is involved, and returning home as late as possible, too. Normal after-dark driving hazards are compounded by the presence of drivers with diminished alertness -- common of feast-day spreads or an o v e r - i n d u l g e n c e i n h o l i d a y "cheer." (Although this description may not apply to you. it will to others on the road.) This plus the fatigue factor from unusual strain or activity demands a concentrated effort on the part of the driver to anticipate possible highway hazards, whether stationary or moving. In sections . where astute traffic authorities have marked natural or man-made hazards The burning battle of subsidies is producing much heat, but very little light. This is due, in part at least, to careless and erroneous use of the word subsidy to mean every kind of government aid or benefit. This improper use of the term makes- it practically meaningless and highly confusing. To promote a better understanding of subsidies, we need to have a precise definition of subsidy, and we need to know not only who gets how much, but also why subsidies are paid and especially who receives the principal benefits. In. public law and in economic1 literature, a subsidy is a special kind of public aid. A subsidy is a grant of funds or property from a government to a private person or company to assist the esfablishrno*-* support of an enterprise deemed to be advantageous to the public. Note that a subsidy involves the transfer of money , or property. Payment is made to a private person or company. The purpose of the subsidy payment is to promote a private undertaking that is in the public interest. A product or service is supplied to the public, not to the government. The intended beneficiary is the public which buys the product or services produced by the subsidized company. Among the most common subsidies are those that are paid to ocean shipping companies. They are paid because it is believed that having a large merchant fleet is essential to national defense. Without subsidies few ships could be built in the United States, and few could be operated by American companies. In early days somenompanies were given subsicttes to build railroads across tion. This was done 'to get fast settlement of the west and xi help get fapn products to the eastern cities and to the seaports for export. . M<>re recently some airlines have been granted subsidies to encourage the development of a i r t r a n s p o r t a t i o n s e r v i c e . This is believed! to be in the national interest in time of peace as well as in war. Contrary to many statements, tariffs are not subsidies, because there are no paymerits. Federal and state aid to local public schools are not subsidies, because payments are not made to private enterprises. Also contrary to oftenrepeated statements, newspapers and magazines do not receive subsidies. Their publishers receive no money or property from the government for getting into^or staying in business. V By con gressiorial order several classes of mail are carried for less than cost. Fhe public benefits from lower subscription rates, lower advertising costs, more or cheaper reading material and lower charges for parcel post service. Farmers receive some subsidies, such as those for producing wool and sugar and for improving soil productivity. Domestic production of wool and sugar mig^t be needed for national defense. Increasing soil productivity makes for more, and less 'costly, food. Farm price support programs that are not intended to increagpCor sustain production cantffot be called subsidies. Certainly government payments that require the recipients to reduce or restrict production are not subsidies in any ordinary sense of the word. Subsidies are useful devices for encouraging the private production of products or the provision of services that are in the public interest and are used by the public. Each subsidy. or other government aid, should be judged and should stand or fall on its own merits. DISABLED UNDER 50 ELIGIBLE FOR I DISABILITY FREEZE 1 McHENRY TOPS ALL OF COUNTY IN BUSINESS LISTINGS If you are under 50 and disabQed,. youmay be eligible for a disability freeze.^. disability j freeze is important ^o you for: two reasons. *4 i (1)' It assures you that so--j cial security benefits payable; at some future date, will not be reduced because of a prolonged period of disability. Since the amount of your benefit is directly related to your earthings, it can readily be seen how important this is m you. f (2) When you are age 50, If you are still disabled, you will be eligible to receive monthly cash disability benefits. Anyone who has beenin work covered by social security for at least five out of ten years immediately before becoming disabled, will meet the work requirements for a disability freeze. The . disability, however, must be one that is medically determinable and* prevents you from engaging in any further substantial gainful work. It you have been continuously disabled for at least six months, you should contact your nearest social security office- to make further inquiry regarding the disability freeze.

Morris of the IHinois State High way Police said that troopers will issue warnings to drivers of vehicles in violation of the law for a period of 30 days during the month of January, after which, citations will be issued. Morris said that all official testing Stations will require the rear fender splash guards before a valid safety sticker will be issued. He added that the guards will not be required on vehicles where construction or design of the vehicle does not require them. The choice of either of the two types of splash guards was amended into the law by the 71st General Assembly.
