Gross Farm Income
Increase Predicted
Washington (U.R) Agricul
tural economist Nathan Koffsky
predicts that gross farm income
will increase 40 per cent within
the next 20 years.
. Koffsky made his prediction
to the nation's farm editors,
basing it on 25 to 45-year in
dices on farmers' prices, both
paid and received; income of
farm operators; farm population;
total farm output; food costs and
consumer income; marketing
charges; farm exports; and farm
labor productivity.
Koffsky said a progression of
the indices indicates the total
population by 1975 will be one
third higher than now; personal
income will be up 50 to 60 per
cent; food consumption per cap
ita will be 10 per cent higher
because of better diet conditions;
and agricultural production will
be up 40 per cent.
All this, he said, will produce
a 40 per cent increase in gross
farm income.

DRIVE A DE SOTO BEFORE YOU DECIDE!
MKCD& DSMnOflTT (CAD,
DE SOTO-PLYMOUTH o 33 SOUTH RIVERSIDE
London (U.R) Prince Charles,
the future king of England, is
going to become "one of the
boys" at a proper British school.
But he is also going to have a
special education-fit for a king.
The plans of education of
Prince Charles announced by
the Queen and the Duke of Edin
burgh last week represent a
compromise.
They had wanted their son to
have experience outside the pal
ace gates "just like any other
boy." This would mean going to
classes with boys his own age.
But as a future monarch he
is not just like any other boy.
He requires schooling in subjects
not generally taught such as
constitutional history, royal eti
quette and responsibility.
The compromise means
Charles will attend certain class
es at a famous boys school, join
ing the sports and games and
studying arithmetic and litera
ture and other standard courses.
Then at home he will have
some private tutoring. A master
from Eton College will give him
intensive instruction in history
and French. A professional mu
sician will give him music les
sons. He has shown a flair for
music.
By combining classroom work
and special tutoring, Queen
Elizabeth hopes her son can get
his royal training- and still ex
perience life in the world out
side. The prince's governess Miss
Katherine Peebles will remain
in charge of his general welfare.
She will also escort Prince
Charles on small parties with
some of his friends to interest
ing spots around London. This is
a royal custom. When the Queen
and Princess Margaret were
young, their grandmother used
to take them on an excursion
once a week during the sum
mer. They visited museums and art
galleries and went to the Tower
of London and the mint.
This is the kind of thing
Queen Elizabeth plans for Prince
Charles. This summer is likely
to see him exploring the capital
with all his usual eagerness and
curiosity.
Sources close to the court say
this phase of the prince's educa
tion wililast until he Is 10 yean
old. He will celebrate his seventh
birthday next November.
When he is 10, the Queen and
the Duke must decide on the
next . stage. Ordinarily at this
age, a British boy of high rank
would go to boarding school. But
no heir to the throne has ever
done this.
It is well known that the Duke
of Edinburgh, who attended the
Gordonstoun Boarding School in
Scotland, believes Charles
should go there, too.
