Announcing a new conservation service d. The funding for Child Nutrition Programs could be in jeopardy says H. H. Winawer, coordinator for Child Nutrition Programs for Utahs public schools and institutions. Washingtons efforts to reduce federal spending, decrease administrative costs, and return discretionary authority to states to handle their own program needs appeals to most people, but in reality could create serious funding problems for child nutrition services. Winawer points out that the School Lunch Program has been structured to cover its (own) costs by charging for meals. Paying students. in effect, pay for much of the program. Many econo- mically disadvantaged stu- dents are provided free meals. However, should the paying children drop out of the program, comments Winawer, cash flow would be interrupted and local school districts may not be able to cover their operational costs. School districts opting to discontinue the National School . Lunch Program would then lose all federal assistance and the needy children would receive no benefits. changed (toward a categorical or block grant), serious consequences could result. Although the New Federalism approach would give states more discretionary authortiy, states may be reluctant to pay for these programs, said Winawer. Raising state taxes to . generate hunls to cover fed- eral withdrawal would only ; shift the financial burden back to the state's citizens. Since there is really no such thing as a free lunch, revenue must continue to lie generated to pay meal costs. It would be disastrous for our youth to lose access to such vital programs as Child Nutrition, and, in particu- lar, the National School Lunch Program, he said. School cafeterias, like other service businesses, have basic opera! ional cost s. While the idea of for the Child Nutrition Program is a good one, the increased that must be added to the paying students fee may force many of these students to discontinue participation. School districts will then have to find alternate ways to subsidize their cafeteria operations or close their self-suppo- rt facilities.

County weed supervisors, county weed board members, and county extension agents voted at the State Weed Conference with others concerned about containing weeds. A large majority voted to organize the association to work on common objectives. t Besides focusing on noxious weeds as in the past, each county will strive to locate and eliminate the newer potentially costly invading weeds. The goal is to prevent them from get- ting strongly established and spreading to cost people in the county many thousands of dollars in control measures and reduced crop and range production. The weed control effort for 1982 will continue the ten basic long- - established philosophies reiterated at the State Weed Conference: Watch for complete, detailed information coming soon in your natural gas statement. h MOUNTAIN FUEL control or supervision of 6) By using good farming methods, a farmer can keep weeds under control on his farm, even though weeds are allowed to grow and produce seeds on adjacent land or on watersheds. 7) Weeds are more easily controlled while they are young. 8) A farmer should plant only seed that is free from weeds. 9) The biggest source of new weed infestations is from weeds that are permitted to go to seed on our own property. 10) Weeds create community problems and definitely affect the economy of any HOME OWNERSHIP In recent years, the value of most homes has risen faster than the inflation rate. Mortgage interest and property taxes are deductible at income tax time. This combination makes home ownership one of the best ways to invest your money. The catch, of course, is that you have to sell the home to realize your returns. And then if you buy another, you have to pay the same sort of inflated price. If you sell after age 55, you can exempt the first $100,000 of the increase in value from capital gains taxes. t . The individual or group known for having 1) land and property is responsible for the weeds that are present. 2) It pays to control weeds; we cant afford the cost of letting them grow. , 3) Under most conditions, a combination of methods is needed to effectively control or eradicate weeds. 4) Prevention is the cheapest and most effective method of weed control. 5) Most, weeds on farm lands can be efficiently controlled by use of known facts for control methods. |
