Wightman Bros. Start
New Milk House "
Ground was broken this week as
construction was started on a new
milk house at the lower Wightman
brothers farm to complete facilities
to replace those razed by fire on the
upper farm last year. Recent ap
proval of the barn facilities at the
lower place was obtained from the
state so that a complete new plant,
for a time contemplated, was not
needed for Heppner's leading dairy
supply.
Mr. Hill, head draftsman for Cope
land Lumber yards of Portland, who
assisted in drawing the plans, came
up from Portland last week with T.
Babb, contractor, and received the
final okeh of the owners. The struc
ture is expected to be pushed as
rapidly as possible.
