The Agriculture Department says retail meat prices in the first half of 1978 will be modestly above the same period this year. It also softens earlier forecasts for higher farm prices for high grade grain-fed beef cattle and predicts Americans may eat more beef pork lamb and poultry than ever before. Final 1977 red meat per capita consumption may reach about 193 pounds with poultry around 42 pounds. Total meat consumption could total about 242 pounds, 2 to 3 pounds above last year.

Stable Water Levels Expected on Missouri River for Six Weeks
The Army Corps of Engineers said duck hunters should see a steady Missouri River water level over the next six weeks. Releases from Gavins Point Reservoir near Yankton have stayed between 20,000 and 34,000 cubic feet per second, keeping river stages from Yankton to Omaha generally under one foot of variation. Unless rainfall surprises, this pattern should persist through the navigation season end in late November, though a fall shift could gradually lower levels by up to a foot in portions from Yankton-Sioux City to Sioux City-Omaha.
