Glutton Falls Beautiful, But Difficult to Locate Sam Steers was the second one to come in to tell us that there was a falls! He was born at Hardman and has known these falls for a long time. He says each season has something dif ferent at the falls. Not much water goes over in the early summer. When there is little water it is all evaporated be fore it reaches the bottom of the falls. In the winter there are giant icecicles. Blanche (Groshens) Dempsey wrote last week about these falls that she remembered from high school days when she at tended Hardman High School, The falls are on land now owned by Dorris Graves and it is a hard place to find. Sam says there are two approaches to the falls. No. 1, you can go to Mrs. Graves home and go on foot from there. Go about a mile down Rock Creek to the first canyon that turns south. Go IYa miles up the canyon to the falls. No. 2 goes by the Deadman Hill road. This road leaves Hwy. 207 about mile past the Graves ranch driveway. You drive up on top about 3 miles and you can look down into the canyon. Walk about mile from the road north to the creek. He said caution should be exer cised because you can fall over into it. Forest fires burn more than trees. Ail fC ; HEFPlfEB GAZETTE -TIMES Thursday, July I. 19 Flood Losses Are Tax Deductible Mr. Joseph T. Davis, Acting District Director of Internal Rev enue Service for Oregon, said residents of Morrow County who suffered losses due to the flood last month may deduct their losses on their 1971 income tax returns. Casualty losses are generally deductible only for the tax year in which the casualty occurs. This is true even though the damaged property may not be repaired or replaced until the succeeding year. Mr. Davis advised taxpayers suffering losses caused by the flood to prepare and retain rec ords and information; for ex ample, date property was ac quired, costs, appraisals and pictures, and other information establishing the amount of their losses. This should be done now because later some of the information may not be available. Non-business casualty loss de ductions are limited to the amount over $100 for each cas ualty. IRS Publication 547 'Tax In formation on Disasters, Casualty Losses, and Thefts" describes procedures for claiming casual ty losses.
