New Price Ceiling For Meat Packers Enacted
The government will implement a new price ceiling affecting meat packers to reduce wholesale beef costs by October 1. Packers must buy cattle at prices averaging 10 per ton January levels, with reductions of four to five cents a pound planned for August and October 1. Spokesmen say the move shifts the squeeze from packers to feeders and could raise beef production costs despite lower cattle prices at major markets since the program was announced.

Proper placement of fertilisers for row crops
County agents outline soil test based fertiliser use. Best results come from placing bands 2 inches to the side and 2 inches below seeds for cotton peanuts and soybeans, with 1 to 2 inches side placement for corn and sorghums. Depth and position influence root development and weed control. flat planting dries surface soil and hinders root growth.
