USDA forecasts higher food spending in 1966 growth softer than 1965 rise
The U.S. Department of Agriculture predicts more people will spend more on food in 1966, but the increase will not reach the 6 percent rise of 1965. About half of 1965's price increase came from higher prices, and food will take a smaller share of consumer income than the 18.5 percent estimated for 1965.

Protection for Pipe Lines in Winter
Protection in time can save you from frozen pipes. Cover a fly pipe on the surface with about four inches of soil. New lines should be buried in a trench 18 inches to two feet deep or below the frost line. Bill Cox recommends electric heating cables for exposed pipes. Cables cost six to 20 cents per foot and protect pipes in cold weather. Do not lengthen or shorten the cable as it affects heat output and may be hazardous. A thermostat is not required but aids automatic economical protection.
