The Monday after the first day of Spring has been set aside as a day when Americans can be aware of the workings and economics of our country's biggest industry-Agricultu- re. Almost everything begins on a form is the theme for this year's Ag Day and it's purpose is to help urban Americans more fully understand the importance of agriculture and agriculture-relate- d products to their way of life. As representatives of the Beef is the largest segment of Industry-whi- ch s American Agriculture-th- e Utah want to build a bridge of understanding between rural and urban stated Mrs. Beatrice Americans, Winterton, Roosevelt, President of the Utah CowBelles. Meat prices are the only category in the consumer price index that are below levels. Record supplies at beef year-aghave made a beef a bargain at the supermarket," she stated. Prices received by cattlemen are strictly related to supply and demand, and when consumers buy more beef, supplies are used up and prices tend to rise. Then cattle producers increase the number of cattle. But because of record cattle numbers, cattle raisers and feeders have been losing $50 to $100 per head, a loss of approximately $5 billion in the past year. This is bad news for cattlemen has meant good news for shoppers at the meat counter, and low retail beef prices are expected to continue at least through 1975", concluded Mrs. Winterton.

In December the results of the continuous survey of the National Federation of Independent Business showed 79.6 per cent of the respondents reported they intended to hold onto present employees. In the data for February, 81 per cent say they intend to hold present employees. However, the big change in attitude ia noted among the 19 per cent who report they are planning .to change their working force. By a margin of better than 2 to 1, more respondents say they intend to hire people than those who say they intend to let workers go. The figures show that 13.2 per cent intend to add to their work force while 5.9 per cent say they intend to cut the number of employees. In December the ratio was different as at that time 11.8 per cent felt they would be letting people go while only 8.5 per cent planned on adding to the payroll. The most job opportunities by region appear to be in the Mountain States where 17.8 per cent report they intend to hire people as compared to 6 per cent who report they intend to decrease their work forces. The west south central states show a ratio of 15.3 per cent who intend to hire as compared to 5.1 per cent who intend to fire and in the Pacific States the ratio of those intending to hire versus those intending to lay off people is 14.8 per cent to 5.9 per cent according to the NFIB respondents.
