Anderson A number of boys and girls will be carrying 4-H pig projects this year as a result of the pig scram ble held during the Morrow coun ty fair and rodeo. Those who caught pigs were Dianna Fulie ton Anna Marie Brindle, Jennifer Brindle, David Loe Hanna, and Anthony Doherty, Heppner; Mit chell Ashbeck, Carla Luciana, Richard Willard and David Proud foot, Echo; Kirk Mathews and Johnny Wagonblast, Lexington. These will be the first pig pro jects for all of these boys and girls. Three are new 4-H club members. Donors for the pigs for the 1957 pig scramble were Vern on Munkers, Lexington; Gary Van Blokland, William Rill, Jacqueline Brindle Edwin Mill er Jr., David Anderson and Doug las Anderson, Heppner; E. M. Ba ker, Billy Akers and Mancell Townsend, lone. D.C. by the Oregon Wheat Com mission and Oregon Wheat Grow ers League assured Pacific North west producers that soft wheat was in demand and would be purchased as long as supplies held Out. Report from Robert Baum of the Oregon Wheat League who is now in Japan or India is that there is quite some demand for lower protein soft white wheat there. Farmers are reminded of the September 30 deadline date for filing for refund tax on gasoline used during the period July 1, 1956 to July 1, 1957. Form 2240 is available at this office. .The form is simple and easy to fill out and if you have used any gaso line at all that comes under the provisions of tax refunds, your time will be well spent in com pleting the form. A number of farmers have cal led at the office to Inquire ab out publicity in last week's paper concerning purchases of wheat for export under Public Law 480. Many were concerned when the announcement was made that soft white wheats would not be purchased under this program. Visiting with Bob Taylor, admin istrator of the Oregon Wheat Commission a few days ago we found that the reason for this an nouncement was that soft white wheat is not in surplus. Public Law 480 funds are used for only those commodities in surplus. A quantity of soft whlte'wheat had originally been contracted to sev eral countries both through Pub lic law 480 and by the trade: with these committments it appeared that all the soft white was spok en for.
