Milk Price Supports Face A Watering-Down
The administration plans to wind down the dairy program to 1991 and shift to a target price and direct-payment system starting Oct 1 1987, amid critics warning of price instability. Federation officials cite budget strains and argue the move harms dairy producers while defenders insist no intent to ruin the industry. Federal supports have cost taxpayers over $20 billion since 1949, with most spent in the last six years due to higher production.

County Commission Debates Bridge Sign Project Cost
County commissioners consider a project to install traffic signs including bridge warnings and low water crossing markers at an estimated 138,391.44 dollars. Federal funding covers 90 percent, but auditors say the county lacks detailed vehicle cost records to satisfy federal requirements. With inadequate books, the project would cost the county about 11,000 dollars more than planned. Haas urges limiting to legally required signs and deferring rest until next year. No decision is reached.
