Those who like to get their support money right now, aren't wishing President Eisenhower a happy New Yera. They are hoping that the; new Congress can get a bill by the president to head off the full 75 to 90 'per cent flexibility. system which will otherwise go! into effect for 1956. Future Looks Bright And those who-feel agriculture can get back on its lng-range business . feet better uwder the new plan are looking t into the year approaching as "very good." Oregon agriculture had two im portant changes during the past year. The state's director of agri culture, Ervin L. Peterson step ped up- and out to Washington, D. C. as one of the assistants to Secretary Benson, and James Short came in from Central Ore gon to take up the reins that Di rector Peterson taw down. And the milk control act, a con troversial bit of Oregon law, was voted out. Big question facing the state dairymen is whether to try for another control act or let it ride for a couple of years to see if they are hurt . Dairy Prices to Hold In the meantime, farm fore casters are saying" that dairy prices will bold about the same until late spring. The dairymen are being urged to keep the milk flow heavy by good winter feed ing as once production goes down, cows don't come back very well until they have calved again. Poultrymen are facing the new year with a rather gloomy look. It's- going to, poultry experts have said the past few days, take every trick in the trade to come out ahead from now; to March, but the outlook for neit summer is considerable brighter. Hatch eries as a whole are looking for a poor January ana reDruary, but the chick buyers who have the foresight to get fthem early enough to have pullets laying by late summer are going to "do not so bad, they were told by farm forecasters. Lifted controls will mean lower feed costs. While the Oregon egg market 'closed one cent higher than the previous week prices ranged from 18 to 19 cents below a year ago. Hog prices are expected to lower after January because of the spring selling of the heavy fall litters. Advice is to sell in January if the pigs reach 225 pounds. Remember that the 1954 pig crop in the United States made an increase of 13 per cent over. the previous year. The. big gest gain was in the fall when the crop' was 16 per cent over the 1953 fall crop. j Sheep Men Optimistic j Most sheep men are showing considerable - optimism , for the coming year. Stronger prices ahead seem to be the promise. Light lambs that go on feed in early January are expected to bring good prices if sold before ApriL They should be moved out at around 100 pounds. More in terest is being shown in the Bos ton Wool Markfet, thej wool baro meter for the United States. Ap proximately 19 cars of mostly, medium grade fleece wools were sold during the week at prices firm to slightly stronger.

Clriang Sees Threat of War In Red Attacks TAIPEH. Formosa W Presi dent Chiang Kai Shek Friday de clared the Red attacks on Nation alist offshore islands were "the overture to the battle of Taiwan (Formosa) Strait."
