Wages Rising
Faster Than
Food Costs
College-$tatlon--Texas con-
sumers and producers of agri-
cultural products closely paral-
lel the national picture, Charles
K Baker, Extension general
marketing specialist at Texas
AIM University, notes.
A new report, issued by the
U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture’s Economic Researc h Ser-
vice, summaries re< ent trends
In farm and retail costs, mar-
keting costs and the relation-
ship between wtiat people earn
and what they pay for food.
There has been a rise of 14
percent during the 1960’s In the
cost at the grocery store for
U. S farm foods. The largest
dpswtng In cost has been since
1964. During the same jeertod
the consumer Price Index rose
20.4 percent.
The standard used to measure
changing cost, called the Market
Basket, Is a fixed amount of
food produced on U. S- farms
that is bought by an average
household In a year. This gauge
shows food costs rose at an
annual average of .6 percent
between 1957-59 and 1964. The
Increase averaged 2.5 ;<ercent
every year between 1964 and
1968.
However, the food costs did
not rise as much as the wages of
food buyers. Percent of Income
spent by average A merb ans for
foo'd declined from 20.7percent
to 17.4 percent from 1957 to
1967,
Both U S and Texas farmers
received about 39 cents from
every dollar spent for food in
1968. This, Baker noted, was
an. Increase of one cent over
1967. The farmer’s share, ar-
ranged by food groups, varied
from 19 cents out of the dollar
for bakery and cereal products
to about 55 cents for poultry
and eggs.
Animal products usually re-
turn more to the producer than
any other because of the In-
creased cost Input.
Processors, packagers,
transporters and all other per-
sons Involved In bringing the
food from the farm to the retail
store check out counter divided
tlie remaining 61 cents.
Offshore Rigs
Attract Fish
New York -- ThAre’s some-
thing fishy about offshore oil
rigs •• literally speaking.
The huge drilling platforms
attract all kinds of marine life,
according to an article In the
' latest edition of Petroleum To-
day, the magazine of the Amer-
ican Petroleum Institute.
When an oil rig stands In the
water for any length of time,
the article notes, It becomes
?n artificial reef. Simple mar-
ine life like plankton, barnacles,
coral, and various types of algae
begin to form on the legs.
Then the laws of nature go
Into effect: l ittle fish come to
eat this growth; bigger fish
come to eat the little fish.
Statistics bear this out.
Since lj>55, for example, the
number of offshore oil struc-
tures -in the Gulfe-of Mexico
lhas gone from 167 to over
,2,300. In the same period —
contrary to the predictions of
people wlto were sure the rigs
would ruin the fishing -- com-
mercial fish catches In the Gulf
have Increased by as much as
600 million pounds annually.

TECHNOLOGY'S PROGRESS
Although It did -not advance
rapidly, technology made sub-
stantial progress in the Middle
Ages. The windmill, wheelbar-
row, window glass, candle and
paved road were Invented In the
12th century; spectacles and the
ship’s rudder appeared In the
-13th; the grandfather clock was
devised In thev!4«h.
