Hog producers are concerned
with the lower hog prices and this is
understandable. Some things to
consider:
? Hog prices seem to cycle every
four years and it takes about two
years to fully recover.
? Hog prices always come back
up and over a period of years have
been profitable to the producers
who stayed in the business.
? If you have a diversified farm,
then the labor is tied up with the
enterprises.
? Good swine labor and man
agement is hard to replace.
? Good breeding stock is hard
to replace and disease resistance
must be built again.
Hach individual swine producer
knows his own situation, here are a
few suggestions that may aid in
adjusting to low prices.
? Cut back on sow numbers
with a rigid culling procedure.
? Use boars with good per
formance records particularly in
rate gain and feed efficiency.
? Increase your management
and save as many pigs as possible to
cut production costs.
? Look for cheaper sources of
grain and possibly plant your own.
? Use high quality pasture for
the breeding herd.
? Market your hogs at lighter
weights. Average (200 lbs.).
These suggestions may aid in
solving some of the price problems
and get the cycle headed back up
sooner.

Mrs. Parker explained that the
5200,000 to be raised will be used
to establish the N.C. School Food
Service Endowment Fund within
the UNC-G Home Economics
Foundation.
Ralph Eaton, director of the
School Food Service Division of the
State Department of Public
Instruction, said, "I'm very
enthusiastic about this project. We
have something of a debt to pay in
that much of training of school
food services workers has been
done on the campus at UNC-G over
the last 30 years, and that effort has
been accelerated in recent years."
- Dr. Naomi Albanese, dean of the
UNC-G School of Home Ecnomics,
expressed her pleasure with the
upcoming fund campaign and said
such money would enable the
school to further develop and
expand its educational efforts in
the school food service sector. Such
funding can help attract faculty
with special competence in this
educational area as well as expand
in - service training for school food
service personnel, she explained.
"When you help educate school
food service workers, you are not
only helping them but you are
enhancing the nutrition of our
school children throughout the
state," said Dr. Albanese.
Mrs. Parker, who is dietary
director with the Kinston City
School System, said the idea for the
campaign has met with "enthusi
astic response" among school food
service workers. "They are asking
how can we help and when can we
start," she added.
Assisting Mrs. Parker in
coordinating the campaign is Mrs.
Carolyn Coble of Salisbury,
director of the Rowan County
School Food Service, who is
president - elect of the NCSFSA.
