Livestock Prices Are
Expected To Remain
On 1851 Levels
Military And Civilian
Demond Creates Need
For High Production

Prices paid farmers for most
kinds of livestock in 1852 are ex-
pected to remain well in line with
1851 levels, according to ]. v.
Pace, economist, Agricultural Elk
tension Service.
Continued heavy production of
livestock and other farm products
is needed for the defense effort,
as 1t takes more food and clothing
for soldiers than civilians, the
economist pointed out. But civil.
lians are eating Is percent more
per person than before World
War II.
The nation is gaining two and
one-half million people each year
demanding more food. Agricul-
tural exports are up so percent
above pre-Wa1, he added.
4 Actually we are losing ground
In food production in relation to
to consumption, as storage sup
Plies of food stocks are down SO
percent from pre-Korea," declar-
ed the economist, who attended
the recent U. S. Department of
Agriculture Outlook Conference
in Washington, D. c.
Beef production will increase
in 1852 and more cattle and calves
will go to market. Mr.. Pace stat
ed.
Cattlemen have been building
up herds rapidly, adding some T.
100000 head to the 100000 on
hand January l. 1851. Combined
output of beef and veal in 1852
should total about 10 percent
above 1851.
Increased slaughter next year
is not likely to result in substan-
tial declines in prices of cattle
and calves. Some price reduc-
tons may occur at times of larg-
est marketings.
Hog production is dwelling off
after going up the past five years,
and some decline is possible in
1852. Prices are not expected to
change much.
Prices for milk and other dairy
products probably will average
higher than in 1851, due to a
stronger demand. But higher
costs of production will keep the
net income of most dairymen
about the same as in 1851. Little
| change is seen for the total a
mount of milk produced
Egg production in the Spring
of 1852 will be above the same
period of 1851, and prices will
probably average about the same
or a little lower.
More broilers and about the
same amount of farm chicken are
in prospect. Demand strong
enough to hold prices near 1851
levels is expected.
Sheep numbers are increasing
and lamb production in Missis-
sippi is probably the most profit
able of all livestock enterprises
for the money invested. Mr.. Pace
pointed out.
Not much change is seen fol
lamb prices. Wool prices dropped
from the all-time peak reached
last March, and may be higher
in 1852 than in the last half o
this year. but probably less thar
the 1851 average.

THROUGH
EYES
HAZE
BY Hazel Brannon Smith

The time of Christmas is near
at hand-and churches through
out the county are planning
beautiful and elaborate musical
programs.
The public is given a cordial
invitation to attend these serv-
ices-regardless of denomina-
ton. Those who fail to accept
these invitations miss a great
deal.
If we can get through the
rush of Christmas shopping,
planning, cleaning, and baking,
and take a little more time just
to relax and enjoy the Christ
mas music I'm sure we would
all get a great deal more out
of the season that celebrates
the birthday of the Prince of
Peace.

weather a large crowd of
people were on hand to greet
Preston Foster, Mrs. Foster,
David Brian and his actress
wife, Adrian Booth, together
with members of their COM
pany making the Mississippi

Everything had been besu.
tlfully planned and the show
went off without any confusion
except that caused by the
rain which broke up festivities
a little earlier than had been
planned.
The two Durant theatres
which sponsored the appear
ance of the Hollywood stars
can be very proud of the re-
Spouse their visitors received
from our people.
