New Limits For Anglers Given Oregon anglers are reminded that the bag limit for salmon in tidal and ocean areas for the 1965 season will be three salmon per day accord­ ing to regulations set by the game commission for the coming year. The increased daily bag limit for salmon does not apply to steelhead. The daily bag limit for steelhead remains at two fish in all open wa­ ters of the state except the Wilson river where a special three-steelhead daily bag limit applies during the 1965 season. The daily bag limit of three sal­ mon applies only to the ocean and tidal areas of the state. In all streams except the tidal portions, the daily bag limit remains at two salmon. Possession limit for both salmon and steelhead was upped to six fish in the aggregate in seven consecu­ tive days or in possession. Not more than 40 such fish in the aggregate of which not more than 20 may be salmon and not more than 20 may be steelhead, may be taken during the calendar year. Dates To Remember Nabisco 1214-oz. Pkg. HTTP GRND BEEF CHUCK ROAST - X " SLICED BACON New cars and cars coming from out of state which will be licensed for the first time in Oregon during Janu­ ary, February and March will be is­ sued plates that expire in nine months instead oi the usual 12 months, according to Vern L. Hill, director of the department of motor vehicles. The department has temporarily changed the usual registration pro­ cedure to more evenly distribute li­ cense plate renewals throughout the year. Hill said cars registered under this system will pay a reduced registra­ tion fee of $7.65 for the period—ra­ ther than $10—corresponding to the shorter registration period. The reg­ ular $2 title fee will be charged. The department anticipates 65,700 new car and out-of-state car registra­ tions during the first three months of the year. “These months already have a dis­ proportionately large share of license plate renewal dates,” he said. “By transferring the annual renewal date on new registrations during these months to three lower volume months, we can even out the depart­ ment’s workload.” This adjustment will not affect mo­ tor vehicle owners with plates that currently expire in January, Febru­ ary and March. They will continue renewing their plates in this months, Hill added. 3-Lb.

FHA Credit to Help Fanners Emergency loans to established farmers and ranchers who have suf­ fered from the Christmas flooding and who are unable to secure the necessary credit from commercial sources are available through the F a r m e r s Home Administration (FHA). In addition to the emergency loans, an additional $2 million has been made available to FHA in Oregon, Washington, California and Nevada to help meet the expected requests under the agency’s regular loan pro­ grams, according to Mrs. Alberta Johnston, Oregon State University extension home management special­ ist in family economics. All 36 Oregon counties were de­ clared eligible for the emergency loans Wednesday, December 30, by Secretary of Agriculture Orville L. Freeman. Loans may be made for regular operating expenses, replace­ ment of livestock and equipment lost in the Christmas flood waters and for building repairs. The emergency loans carry an in­ terest rate of 3 percent, with repay­ ment to be made at the earliest pos­ sible date in accordance with re­ payment ability, she explained. Under FHA’s regular loan pro­ gram, to which the $2 million was added in the four-state area, credit to build a new house, modest in de­ sign and cost, or to repair a damag­ ed one will be extended to farm owners and rural residents in com­ munities having a population of less than 2500. These funds may also be used for construction or repair of damaged farm buildings. Amounts loaned for housing repair or construction bear interest at 4 percent and may be re­ paid over a 33-year period. To be eligible for an FHA loan, an appli­ cant must be unable to obtain need­ ed credit from commercial sources. Further information may be ob­ tained at RHA offices in Oregon City, Redmond, Roseburg, Madras, Grants Pass, Klamath Falls, Eugene, Albany, Ontario, Salem, Gresham, Pendleton, LaGrande, Hillsboro and McMinnville.
