Farm costs rising while farm income edges up says USDA
A USDA report shows farmers paid more for nearly everything from overalls to combines as costs rose faster than prices. Despite higher cattle and hog prices lifting income by about 2 billion dollars, production expenses remain steep. Anticipated futures point to strong feed prices and seasonal shifts, with hog prices expected to ease then rebound later in the year.

House To Vote On Bill To Pull U.S. From Indochina War
Washington AP The House faced a vote today on a rider demanding U S withdrawal from Indochina this year potentially blocking a $2.3 billion foreign aid bill. Leaders voiced split views with some predicting a narrow rejection of the pullout mandate and its impact on foreign aid. Chairman Thomas Morgan warned against rejecting any foreign aid bill while Speaker Carl Albert and Gerald Ford warned the aid package could be defeated if the pullout language remains. Morgan said the issue could dictate whether foreign aid continues on an interim basis if the House backs the pullout.
