Mr. and Mrs. Royce Keilers

Consumer and state and loc
al government spending should
help our country have another
year of high economic activity.
“Such spending is expected
to provide the major economic
stimulus in 1965, with consum-
er purchases centering prima-
rily on nondurable goods and
services,” reports John G. Mc-
Haoey, Extension economist,
Texas A&M University “The
outlook, however, is not as
clear as the '64 picture appear-
ed at this time last year."
Prospects point to further in-
creases in total output, em-
ployment and consumer in-
comes. The civilian labor force
is expected to be somewhat
larger than in the past eeveral
years, and the advance in total
economic activity may not bo
large enough to absorb this in-
crease. As a result, the rate of
unemployment will
high, he says.
"Consumer purchases of non-
durable goods and services will
increase,’’ McHaney says,
“while sales of such durable
goods as automobiles are not
expected to match those of
1964. Even though the auto in-
dustry may not contribute to
expanding the economy over
1964, it is likely to have a pros-
perous year.”
A downward trend in hous-
ing starts could have a dauiper-
ing effect on purchases of such
durables as house furnishings
and equipment. Little or no
additional economic stimulus is
thus foreseen from this source.
An increase ol more than $5
billion in state and local .gov-
ernment purchases is in view
for the coming year. This in-
crease would be at a faster
rate than in 1964 and would
definitely spur the economy,
he adds.
Federal purchases of goods
and services, however, are an-
ticipated to show little varia-
tion, due mainly to the holding

Nevertheless, some drastic eco-
nomic shift could bring about
a change in government policy
in this area, points out the eco-
nomist.
Helping to determine the
country’s pace of economic ex-
pansion are investment expen-
ditures for new plants and
equipment. This year’s invest-
ments will probably run about
13 percent above 1963, one of
the largest annual increases in
post-war years, predicts the
economist.
“Such investments in 1965,
however, are expected to fall
short of a similar substantial
increase,” McHaney adds.
“This source, therefore, is not
likely to add to the gross na-
tional product.”

CATTLE CUBES are palatable and high in
energy. The large cubes may be fed in bunks
or on the ground.
CATTLE CUBES contain all of the neces-
sary minerals, vitamins and energy nutrients
for developing calves, maintaining cow condi-
tion and putting finish on slaughter cattle. The
usual quantity of CATTLE CUBES fed per
head per day is 2 to 3 lbs. over a 120-day pe-
riod. The 1 lb. daily rate is recommended only
when grazing conditions are good, and the 4 lb.
daily rate when pastures are “burned out."
Slaughter calves fed MASTER MIX
CATTLE CUBES may bring as much as $20
to $40 more per head than calves finished on
grass alone.
