elects this option, the exchange
will be subject to the 4.3 percent
Gramm- Rudman reduction. This
process, in effect, would determine
the minimum value a producer
would be willing to accept for the
certificate. The producer would
not want to receive less than 95.7
percent of the lace value, less the
opportunity cost of holding the cer-
tificate.
A second alternative is to sell or
transfer the certificate to another
party. Interested buyers may in-
clude other producers, brokers,
grain elevators and merchandis-
ers.
Since the certificate is generic, it
doesn't have to be sold locally for a
specific commodity. The alert pro-
ducer will shop around to find the

Going over last year's receipts,
cancelled checks, W-2 forms and
other papers to get ready for tax
time is never much fun. But it's
even more bothersome when it
creates some nagging doubts
about how well last year’s income
was spent.
You might avoid the problem
next year by establishing a family
spending plan for 1987 while the
year is still young. Whether you
have a lot of money or a little, a
sound plan for spending is the key
to having dollars for what is
needed and wanted before the
money disappears in unexpected
ways.
It's fairly simple to set up a spen-
ding plan. First calculate your
1987 income from all sources.
Then, while you've got all your

Local Artists
By Ora Lee Frazier
Betty Gibbs said local artists
will be encouraged to hang their
work in the B & R Gallery which
she and her husband, Rufus, have
opened in the east end of the
Paducah Motor Company.
Mrs. Gibbs, formerly of Spur,
where she is secretary of the Spur
Art Guild, has studied art for
almost fifteen years, and works
with oils, water colors, pastels, pen
and ink drawings, sculpture, and
also does special designs on monu-
ments.
She is working toward a fine
arts degree from Western State
University at Snyder where she
studied the past year under Mike
Thornton, head of the art depart-
ment. Other noted artist-instruc-
tors of hers have been Michael
McCula, Jon Birdsong, and Dick
Cheatham.
Mrs. Gibbs plans to conduct
ing oh assertiveness, the meek
have voted unanimously not to in-
herit the earth!

for choosing this option include ®

1986 financial records out, use
them to estimate your expenses for
next year.
So you don’t miss items or
underestimate what you spend,
look at your weekly, monthly and
yearly expenses. Some of the
things we buy with "pocket
money" such as restaurant meals
or recreation expenses often get
overlooked. And don’t forget to
include irregular expenses, such as
semi-annual insurance payments
or car servicing.
When you have these two sets
of figures, you can plan ahead for
what you will spend each pay
period, and how much you should
set aside in savings to meet irregu-
lar bills and unexnected axn«nsw*«
Having a spending plan also
allows you to "bill" yourself for a
certain amount each pay period,
and how much you should set
aside in savings to meet irregular
bills and unexpected expenses.
Having a spending plan also al-
lows you to "bill" yourself for a
certain amount each pay period
which can go into savings to meet
long-term financial goals. That
goal might be a down-payment for
a new house or car, college expen-
ses, a vacation or a retirement nest

It takes practice and patience in
keeping financial records so that
you can use fairly accurate
amounts for planning rather than
estimates. But good records can

By Mike Gruber, CE A-AG
Many producers m govern-
ment commodity programs have
received certificates from their lo-
cal ASCS offices that are
designated as "CCC-6" but are
commonly referred to as Generic
PIK. Using them wisely can make
a big difference to producers.
The certificates have three dis-
tinct features: they are negotiable,
denominated in dollars, and must
be liquidated before a specific expi-
ration date.
The negotiability aspect allows est return for PIK certificates. If, in
