D. Thomas, Oregon State college extension economist ! reports in his latest "Agricultural I 4i t imt inn :ind Outlook". Thomas says grain and hay growers' troubles will probably rebound in favor of livestock and poultry producers. He adds that while market receipts for both beef and milk may be. slightly smaller than in 1053, smaller feed bills will even out net re turns. Chickens and turkeys will also be favored by lower feed prices but may run into trouble if numbers are increased as much in other stales as now seems likely. The slash in Oregon's wheat acreage, required by marketing quotas, may reduce incomes for the state's wheat and barley raisers by at least $10 million even though much of the land held out of wheat is put into other crops. The grain income drop will be felt largely in Columbia Basin counties but will extend into Klamath county and the Willa mette Valley. Oregon's 1953 wheat income of $71 million headed the list for farm com modities. It accounted for near ly one-third of the total value of all crops. Thomas believes some farmers who have been raising hay for sale may profit by using more of it for livestock feed along with lower-priced grains, especially barley. Most seed growers should fare better than in 1053 although prices of fine fescues and rye grass seeds may be under some fire during the coming marketing season. Tree fruits should gross about the same as last year. Walnuts and filberts look better, hut strawberries and red raspberries may be headed for a slump. Low potato and onion prices last year may discourage inandouters, and the economist sees better prospects for 1051. o WA CAN TE KA CAMP FIRE GIRLS The Wa can le ka Camp Fire Girls have been quite busy since our Ceremonial.
