Consumer Prices.
To Remain Stable
Says Specialist
Prices that Oregon families
will pay in the year ahead will
be much the same as they have
been, according to Miss Mary
Beth Minden, Oregon State col
lege extension home manage
ment specialist.
For the past three years, con
sumer prices' have net varied
much, she said. The rise in con
sumer prices nationally has been
only a little more than one per
cent since January, 1952. Miss
Minden foresees very little
change in the year ahead.
Farm families can expect gen
erally a little less net income
next year, she said. Many other
families will have a shifting in
come, with no general up or
down pattern. For safe planning,
she suggests families consider
chances for less income.
With these possibilitie, it will
be even more important for fam
ilies to do a good job buying and
planning, Miss Minden said.
Many of them will need to con
sider how to stretch their money.
The home management spe
cialist recommends a three-point
program for the family's 'pock-
etbook planning. It includes in
come, prices and how to manage.
Planning, scheming, and
spendmg know-how are all tools
which help us use our moneey
and other resources wisely," she
commented. "Using these tools
to advantage can make a differ
ence in our living in the . year
ahead."
Miss Minden discusses outlook
prices for food, clothing, home
furnishings and equipment, serv
ices, and housing in a new ex
tension publication, "The Famly
Looks Ahead, 1955." This leaflet
is available through county ex
tension agents or Oregon State
college. '
