Economist pessimistic about livestock prices "In addition to the relatively pessimistic price outlook for most livestock categories, at least through mid 1982, many areas of the state have been hit hard by unfavorable weather," Murra said. "This has both reduced numbers of some categories of livestock and has increased production costs." Murra is more optimistic about livestock prices beyond mid-1982, although demand will remain the unanswered question.

"And, consumers will pay more even if farm-level prices don't go up," he said. "This is because the costs of processing, transporting and storing livestock and livestock products will go up." Kelly Corwln crowned state Demolay Sweetheart ABERDEEN Kelly L. Corwin, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Bert C.

Corwin of Rapid City, was crowned South Dakota Demolay Sweetheart at the South Dakota Demolay State Conclave Sweetheart Ball. She was sponsored by the Rapid City Minnelusa Chapter Order of Demolay. Murra expects hog prices to be in the upper $40s to low $S0s this fall, in the low to mid $50s range in the first half of 1982 and then In the low $S0s for the remainder of 1982. Prices in the mid to upper $60s appear In line for fed cattle this fall, with the general state of the economy likely preventing any large price increases, he said. "While a large supply of grain at somewhat lower prices may help the feedlot operator, other costs of production are still high," he said.

"In order to maintain even close to a break-even situation, feedlot operators will probably lower their bids for the feeder cattle they buy." Murra expects feeder cattle prices to depend on fed cattle prices, grain prices, interest rates and feeder cattle supplies. The lamb and sheep market is the most difficult to forecast, Murra said, but he expects prices to improve over this summer's levels and could move to the high $60s by early 1982. Dr. John W. Schwietert, Victor C.

Pengra and Glenn E. Best of Rapid City and James L. Kelly of Custer were among members named to an BROOKINGS (AP) Extension economist Gene Murr has little optimism about prices South Dakota producers will receive for cattle and hogs through mid-1982. Murra, of South Dakota State University, expects hog prices around $50, fed cattle prices between $65 $70. and feeder calves in the $70 to $80 range through the rest of the year and into mid-1982.

Such prices would have elated producers a few years ago, Murra notes, but now such prices "are close to breakeven levels and for some producers losses are likely to occur." Murra's price outlook is based on two factors: the assumption that the economy will Improve little in the next few months, and that there will be little change in grain prices. "The outlook for hogs, while not highly optimisic, is somewhat better than for most other livestock categories," Murra said. "Supplies of hogs for slaughter, at least through mid-1982, are expected to be below year earlier levels." Pressler to head wheat delegation at Canada meeting WASHINGTON Sen.

"The projected U.S. average wheat production costs in 1981 are $5.32 per bushel, while the U.S. exported its wheat at an average price of $4.84 per bushel during the 1980-81 marketing year," Pressler said. He said the costs of production of wheat increased 50 cents from 1981 to 1981 while the average export prices increased only 15 cents. Meanwhile, in August South Dakota farmers received on the average $3.50 per bushel, Pressler said.

"It is vitial that the increase in the price of U.S. wheat exports keep pace with the costs of production." Corwln honorary Legion of Honor.

Hackett Sons keeps your building from costing too much and taking too long. IWMiaHaJjHLiwfe $Jt akkV HkkBhkkBfetkB kfl HfcH 11 BtJ IAaMiftByHffegfgf(Mk jMBIW fHHV Til" 'IIIMIa After October 1 you can convert your current savings certificate into a Tax-Break Certificate, even if it's not mature yet, with no penalty for early withdrawal.

But it must meet these requirements: 1. The maturity date of your current certificate must fall within a year of the day you convert it into a Tax-Break Certificate, 2. the interest rate you're currently earning must be equal to or higher than the current Tax-Break Certificate rate and 3. your current certificate must be with our bank. Even if you don't already have a certificate you may want to look into investing in a 26-week certificate now.

So you can earn high interest rates now (current rate is 16.045). Then convert it after October 1 with no penalty into a Tax-Break Certificate to take advantage of 'he tax exclusions. Up to $2000 interest exclusion Simply put, with our Tax-Break Certificate, you keep what you earn. Because it gives couples filing a joint return a total lifetime exclusion of up to $2000 from their Federal income tax. Those filing single returns can exclude up to $1000 interest from Federal income tax.

A low-minimum, one-year investment With just $500 you can invest in the Tax-Break Certificate and receive a high return on your investment. You're guaranteed your high rate for the life of the certificate. The Tax-Break Certificate matures one year from the date of purchase, and is fully insured up to $100,000 by the FD1C. So is it right for you? Frankly, that depends on a number of factors. First remember that your money is tied up for one year in the Certificate.

And if you choose to withdraw or borrow against your certificate before it matures, you lose the tax advantage and will incur the substantial penalty for early withdrawal. Second, and most important, if your 1982 tax bracket is less than 25, you may not find the Tax-Break Certificate that beneficial. In that case, you'd probably be better off to invest in some other type of certificate. What to do? Talk to us. We'll explain our Tax-Break Certificate to you, and even explain the deals the other financial institutions are offering.

Then we'll help you decide what's right for you. Because, after all, we've been telling you we're on your side for quite a few years. And we still mean it. Only the interest nn a Tax-Break Certificate earned after conversion can be considered for a lax exemption. Interest earned prior to conversion is still taxable.
