Changes include allowing benefits during timely appeals, updated mental illness standards, time-based mental evaluations, and consideration of multiple impairments. Personal interviews initiate the process to document limitations and treatment.
A letter to the editor questions a dairy policy article citing Del Whelan at Menomonie. It includes a family genealogy request for Rory and Christina McRae, noting their Brunswick township farming in the 1870s and 1880s before moving to North Dakota, with several children named and dates. It also criticizes Grade B producers, mentions tax shelters for wealthy investors, and reports a 7 percent loan rate on new price support loans.
A reader criticizes a USDA funded speaker who profits from farming yet loses money. The letter argues for a law preventing farms with adequate off farm income from deducting farm expenses to lower income tax. The goal is to cut surpluses and reduce the federal deficit.
A reader defends grade B milk producers against surplus claims, arguing small farmers milking 15 to 26 cows, selling to a non government cheese factory, maintain bacteria counts under 10,000, and suggesting that larger farms drive surplus by expanding herds and debt.
The Agriculture Department projects that total farm debt, excluding household loans, was about 198.9 billion dollars at year end 1985, essentially unchanged from 1984. Real estate debt fell about 4 percent and non real estate debt fell about 4 percent, while CCC loan activity offset declines.
