The Rangerettes Unit 1404 of
Raeford was elected Number One
unit in Eastern North Carolina

They will be running for the title
of Number One in the nation.
The girls have worked, pro
gressed and grown tremendously in
the past two years under the
supervision of Patti Lunsford. Mrs.
Lunsford was elected one of the top
youth leaders in the nation for
1980. This alone tells the story of
how much the Rangerettes have
grown to be a distinguished or
ganization. They are now being
recognized for all of the civic and

Accent On Agriculture
Unfortunately, some urban con
? sumers, separated from the farm by
1 generations, have come to think of
the supermarket as the origin of
their food. At the same time, many
lawmakers with little or no know
ledge of agriculture, have the
responsibility of making decisions
which directly affect the lives of
farmers.
The independent, self-sufficient
farmer, realizing the need of
understanding and support of those
r not involved in his industry, has
worked hard to build his public
image and relate the "farm story"
to consumers.
He has made great strides in
building bridges of understanding
between farm and city - in personal
contacts at mall promotions, fairs
and farm tours, through speakers'
bureau appearances before urban
groups and in the schools. He has
taken the time to get acquainted
k with members of his local news
? media and convince them that what
was happening on the farm was

NEWS - not just to farmers, but to
everyone.
But, one area has the farmer
stumped. When farm prices go up,
there always seems to be an excuse
for retail food prices to rise ? and
this makes the headlines. Yet,
when farm prices decline, nobody
cares - or evenjcnows - except the
farmer.
Whether farm prices are rising or
falling doesn't really have that
much effect on retail prices, be
cause only 37 cents of the food
dollar is put on at the farm level.
The other 63 cents is added after
the products leave the farm gate.
The farmers, with his ever-rising
production costs, understands that
the middlemen's costs are rising
too. But. what disturbs him is that
it's the farm price that's always
used as the reason for retail price
increases. He thinks somebody else
along the food production line
ought to take a turn being the
"heavy.

Retirement
Income
Beginning January 1, 1982 IRA's will be for
everyone. Because of new tax laws, every
wage earner can now make tax-sheltered
deposits in an IRA. Your deposits ac
cumulate without being taxed until after you
retire. IRA's are perfect for the self
employed. . .and just as perfect for those
who want to supplement their employer's
pension plan.
The primary advantage to an IRA comes
from the fact that there are substantial tax
savings. In effect, Gncle Sam is helping you
build a personal retirement fund by allowing
you to channel tax dollars into the special
purpose IRA account which, then, earns in
terest at a high, TAX FREE rate. These are
the two key tax benefits. . .tax deductible
contributions. . .and. . .tax free interest.
