Trading stamps hurt farmers in price squeeze, AP report
Washington AP reports that trading stamps from stores may depress farmer prices as coupons flood markets. Ohio Farm Bureau notes stamps boost consumer perks but push costs onto merchants and farmers, while processing plants face higher costs and lower farm shares. Also noted are insect pheromone findings and vegetable processing output forecast lower by 21 percent this year. The National Council of Farmer Cooperatives joined opposition to broad government subsidies for grazing on cropland diverted from surpluses.

Ultrasonic tech may tenderize meat and trim fat on live cattle
Dr. R. B. Temple of the U S Department of Agriculture outlined ultrasonics at the Reciprocal Meats Conference in Stillwater. The system could tenderize muscle tissue and help reabsorb fat in live animals before slaughter, while ultrasonics already measure internal fat to aid breeding and herd improvement. Federal troops patrolled Nogales streets on National Policeman's Day as the local force enjoyed a holiday.
