Rate Hike Sets Gas Prices for Osceola Shelby Areas
The Federal Power Commission will implement an approximate 12 percent rate increase for the average residential heating customer in Osceola, Shelby, and 36 other Nebraska communities served by Northern Natural Gas. The rise, effective October 27, 1976, stems from Northern's April 1976 filing and targets producer rates to spur new gas exploration. Local manager Chris Dahmke notes Congas and other distributors intervened with the FPC, and refunds may apply as pipeline costs shift.

Gasphol To Be Topic At FU Meeting
The Polk County Farmers Union will hold a potluck supper and meeting in Osceola on October 7 at St Vincent's Hall. Fricke of Lincoln will speak about gasohol a 10 percent ethyl alcohol blend. The plan aims to cut gasoline use and create a grain outlet for farmers with a Nebraska plant producing 20 million gallons annually. The APIAC road test shows about five percent lower consumption, gasohol priced like regular gasoline, and high protein cattle feed as a by product.
