The largest agreement ever ne gotiated for thp sale of United States farm products under title i of nuhlle law 480 was reached with the government of India on August 29. The agreement pro vides for the sale of some 360 million dollars worth of surplus farm products to India. Wheat will make up the biggest part of the sale. India agreed to pur chase 200 million dollars worth of wheat or about 130 million bushels. This represents more than 15 of the total quantity of wheat held by the U. S. Govern ment on August 1. The second largest item included in the sale is 500,000 bales of Cotton or 40 million dollars worth. Announce, ment of the big sale of Wheat to India boosted winter wheat prices one to three cents. Wheat farmers are reminded that Rex is still on the list of dis counted wheats named by the USDA. There are twenty-three wheat varieties throughout the wheat producing states named as undesirable because of inferior milling or baking qualities. While there was very little Rex grown in Morrow county in 1956, some was produced. Reports are that this was sold on the open market without a discount. This should not be misconstrued to mean that all Rex produced will not be dis counted. Millers can use a limt ted amount of these undesirable varieties for blending. This holds true on the unnamed variety which was produced in Morrow County on a limited scale known as Forty-fold and by some other names. This variety has many undesirable characteristics and will harm the wheat market from this area if large quantities move to millers. THIRTY YEARS AGO From Files of the Gazette Times Sept. 23, 1926 One of the most successful hunts reported in Heppner was that of a party of seven who went out to Indian Creek last Thurs day ana returned Tuesday witn seven buck deer scalps. Making up the party were Bernie Gaunt, Bub and Ed Clark and nephew Earl Hamilton of The Dalles, Pete Shively, Martin Reid and Paul Gammell. Intermittant rain and shine yesterday, with considerable wind, has put the Rodeo grounds and streets in fine feather, and though cloudy this morning pros pects are for better weather the last two days of the Rodeo. Miss Eva Wilcox, queen of the Rodeo, proved herself full worthy of all the honors possible to be stow upon her when she probably saved the life of Ted McMillan of Lexington Monday morning.

One of 200 bushels, and one of 150 bushels, maklne a total of 2,350 bushels now allocated to our prowers. There Is no add! tional seed available for alloca tion at this time, however, there is the possibility that some mleht be available after other counties have secured their needs.
