1868 Dairy Outlook
Same AS For 1862

In many respects the dairy out
look for 1868 is similar to that of
1862. Milk production in 1862 in
creased over 1861, and consump-
ton ran far below supplies. There
fore, price support purchases were
very large This situation is ex-
pected to be repeated in 1868, ac-
cording to County Agent, VIM. H.
Henderson.
The dairy outlook for the COM
ing. year is based on continuation
of the present dairy support pro-
gram, with supports at 1879 of
parity. However. proposals for new
dairy legislation are expected to
be made to Congress in 1868 which
could alter the picture.
Milk production in 1868 is ex-
pected to register another gain,
likely about one billion pounds
over 1862. The downtrend in milk
COW numbers, which slowed in 1860
and 1861. continued at slow pace
in 1862. Decreases in COW numbers
were small this year, although
price supports dropped in April,
and spring and summer pasture
conditions were poor in much of

After months of controversy, the
Savin oral vaccine was approved
for communicative use by the U.
s. Public Health Service, despite a
very small risk" among adults,
especially those over 80 years old.
Particular emphasis ON the vac
cine's use should be put on chill

in Washington, after his special
advisory panel on the vaccine con-
cluded three months of pondering
whether one strain of the live virus
vaccine might cause paralytic polio
in some vaccinated adults.

and elected the following vic G

means Carrow received consider
able support from New Castle
County magistrates.

one point Matushefske indicated
his intention of resigning from the

Despite Adoption Of A
Record $S7S,000 Bud
get, City Debt Is Only
S257,000.

A record budget of $878,000 :
$4,000 more than last year, was
adopted by the Milford City Coun-
Gil recently. The city's budget tops
any spending in its history and
the increase is one of the highest
said Mayor Alphonso E. Humes.
At the same time, Humes spoke
highly of the city's economic
health. Il think the city is in a
very strong financial position, =
said the mayor. 81 think it looks
like, next year, we'll be able to
provide some improvements
around town such as lights and
curbing."
The budget is for a city fiscal
year which began in October and
will end September 30 next year
1T anticipates an expected SO gain
in electric revenue which accounts
for some of the $4,000 increase,
said Humes.
The city's electric revenue from
its municipal electric plant pro-
vides about 500 of the city in
come The remainder derives from
real estate taxes, capitation taxes
building permits, and traffic fines
among others.
Not included in the budget,
which Humes points out is only a
guide for fiscal spending, are mu-
nicipal aid funds which are used
yearly for street improvement.
Payments on the city's bond issues
total $21, 900 for bond redemptions
and $4,000 interest.
