Hand hygiene, antiseptics, and hospital practices shape risk, while urinary tract infections from catheter use are most common.

USDA says record corn crop could spark hog expansion in 1972
The Agriculture Department predicts that a near record 5.2 billion bushels of corn this year will lower feed costs and tempt farmers to boost pork production next year. Hog prices are expected to rise after a fall dip, with higher prices and lower feed costs likely to raise farrowings in 1972. Cattle outlook shows little change, though feedlots may increase placements as abundant feed fuels gains.

Tax Lid Extension Debate Shifts to 1973 Session
Rep. Shelby Smith of Wichita says he will block any 1972 move to extend the tax lid past its three year limit. Smith, head of the House Assessment and Taxation Committee, argues the lid should be extended only in 1973 if needed and warns against turning the issue into a political football. Governor Docking has indicated he may seek an extension during the 1972 session.

Auto Suit Study Says Negligence Cases Low in Kansas
Kansas Bar Association president Phil Lewis released a study showing automobile negligence cases filed in state courts accounted for 7.2 to 9.2 percent of all civil actions from 1966 to 1970. He notes no-fault advocates exaggerate courts being overwhelmed and cites lower percentages in recent years. A Bar meeting poll finds most Kansas attorneys oppose no-fault insurance.
