Livestock Meet Draws Big Crowd
The best attended annual
meeting of the Morrow County
Livestock Growers Association
was held this past weekend. It
was the ninth annual meeting.
The Bull Day held Friday drew
over 100 people who consigned,
traded or just looked and visited
while 49 bulls were on display.
It was hard to keep an accurate
check on the number of bulls
which changed hands, It Is cer
tain that at least 29 were traded
or sold. The afternoon discussion
by Si Williams, livestock auct
loneer was a popular attractiin
and over 100 persons were count
ed in the crowd during the time
that Si explained what to look
for in a bull and why.
Seventy-eight livestock men re
gistered at the Saturday meeting,
Over 175 attended the evening
banquet. Chairmen reporting for
11 committees active during 1957
showed that the association has
carried out many activities over
the past year. The major activity
of the year reported on by chair
man Ralph Beamer was that of
the construction of livestock cor
rals and scales for use by live
stock association members. The
report showed that livestock men
had contributed almost $7000 for
the construction of a new 10 ton
scales and holding corrals. It was
reported that almost 3000 head
of cattle had been run through
the scale since their completion
The Saturday afternoon debate
on the proposed Beef Commission
drew lots of discussion. Carrying
out the debate were Ted Hyde,
Bly rancher and chairman of the
Oregon Beef Commission comm
ittee; BUI Johns, Umatilla county
rancher and feeder and Jay Scott,
Umatilla county rancher. The
"for" side maintained that beef
commission should be establish
ed so that beef men could help
themselves in solving the many
beef marketing problems which
lie ahead of them. Illustrations

Area Water Supply
Outlook Favorable
Water supply outlook for Uma
tilla, Morrow and Gilliam count
ies is satisfactory, according to
a report released this week by
the U S D A soil conservation
service and the Oregon agricul
tural experiment station. Analy
sis of early winter snow surveys,
soil moisture conditions and res
ervoired water supplies indicates
the situation is more favorable
than at this date last year.
Snow surveys from Emigrant
springs, Tollgate and Mecham
indicate nearly three times the
water content of last year at this
date. The snow Is well distributed
even at fairly low elevations.
It is notable that the snow
pack lies on well wetted soils.
Moisture penetration has been
measured down to three feet in
many places.
Both McKay and Cold Springs
reservoirs now hold more water
than at this date last year. Cold
Springs with 22,000 acre feet
slightly exceeds its average stor
age figure of 21,000 acre feet.
McKay currently holds about 18
000 acre feet which is 66 percent
of average. Discharge of the Um
atilla river since October 1 has
been close to normal but Oct
tobor alone was twice normal.
The current statewide outlook
for 1958 water supplies is sat
isfactory with a 120 percent nor
mal snow cover now present in
the mountain watersheds. Reser
voired water supplies are mostly
well above normal.
RELIGION SERIES
BEING CONTINUED
The second in the" discussion
series of the World's Great Relig
ions will be held next Tuesday
at 7 p m at the Hope Lutheran
church.
Last week the Hindu faith
was reviewed and this week Bud

&
bursed expenses should do so im
mediately -- going back to Jan
uary 1 with complete documen
tation - the accountants advised.
Itemization will be required in
preparing the 1958 federal in
come tax returns a year hence.
Meanwhile, taxpayers may ig
nore one line of the 1957 feder
al forms. Following outcries of
consternation from employees,
employers and accountants, the
government temporarily dropped
the requirement for l'sting ex
pense account data, although the
query remains on the tax forms
on line 6-A, the committee said.
After the forms had already
been printed the internal reve
nue commission threw in the
sponge as far as itemization is
concerned. Commissioner Russell
C Harrington admitted it "would
place too great a burden on
many taxpayers" because it was
announced so late in the year.
Harrington, in common with
tax advisors, has issued repeat
ed warnings to taxpayers to keep
accurate records on expense ac
counts, starting at the first of
the year, "so that for 1958 and
later years they will be 'n a pos
ition to supply expense account
information to the government."
Pendleton Area Bank
Debits Show Decline
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu
gene, - Bank debits for November
in the Pendleton area showed a
drop of 6.7 per cent from Oct
omer, 1957, and a drop of 4.88
per cent from November, 1956.
Total bank debits for the area
were $31,528,028, with 8 banks
reporting.

banks reporting, indicated a drop
of 0.9 per cent from October, 1957,
but a rise of 0.1 per cent from

value of checks draw against the
deposit accounts of individuals
and business firms. The Univers

collects bank debits monthly.
