Miller & Sons Welding purchase first
new piece of equipment
IRS phone numbers, offices to assist taxpayers
By MARY ANN CERULLO
Miller & Sons Welding of
Heppner would like to
announce the arrival of the
"first brand new piece of
equipment we've ever
owned," according to Joe
Miller. It is a 2,700 lb.
hydraulic powered Piranha
Iron Worker.
Miller & Sons intends to use
the Piranha Iron Worker
primarily for the .fabrication
of small parts, Joe Miller told
the, Gazette-Times. It can be
used to punch holes in steel,
shear angle irons, cut steel up
to five-eights of an inch thick,
and eliminates drilling and
grinding. Miller continued.
"We've already used it
more than I expected to, so I
see it paying for itself rather
rapidly, Miller said.
The iron Worker was pur
chased from AR Machinery in
Spokane for $11,000 and arriv
ed in Heppner on December
29.
A representative from the
company is expected this
week to train the rest of the
shop employees and give all
of us some lessons in using the
Iron Worker safely, concluded
Miller.

problems and questions can be
handled by telephone,
IRS employees are not
expected to prepare taxpay
er's returns, nor do they
prepare complex business
schedules or assist with book
keeping and accounting
functions. IRS will normally
advise individuals neediong

help from private tax prepar
ers, continued the news re

and free IRS publications
should use the order form
included in their tax package
for faster service. Forms and

1 to 4:30 p.m. on Monday
only. If a federal holiday
occurs on a Monday, the office
will normally be open the
following Tuesday, the news
release said.
Question: With most of the
country being suddenly plung
ed into record low tempera
tures, do you believe we are
experiencing the start of an
ice age, as some theories
proclaim?
"According to what we read
we should be getting one, but I
don't think we are unless we
look at the east coast temper
atures," said Oral Wright,
Lexington, "But with the
smog we are creating, some
say the earth's temperature is
rising, so who are we to
believe?"

Wood stove safety
CHIMNEYS...
One of the biggest sources of fire hazards are faulty
chimneys or the use of existing chimneys that were
not designed tor a wood-burning device.
Fire may start in a chimney, due to:
1. A build-up of creosote or debris.
2. Use of a chimney inadequate for the safe use of
wood-burning device.
3. Cracked or faulty chimney or lack of flue tiles.
4. Too many units using the same chimney.
5. Inadequate height of chimney which will cause
draft problems.
Fire in chimneys can quickly spread to the entire home.
Check the safety of your stove, and

Salmon-steelhead tags for
1981 are expired and the Fish
and Wildlife Department is
urging anglers to turn them in
as soon as possible said a news
release from that department.
The catch information re
corded on the tags is the basis
for catch estimates used by
the department in its man
agement programs. The data
is statistically expanded to
give catch for each month on
each stream in the state with
salmon and-or steelhead runs.
The more tags returned, the
better the base of information
and the more accurate esti
mates can be. Even tags from
anglers who did not fish or
who fished but did not catch
anything are important and
should be returned.
Tags can be dropped into the
boxes provided at license
agencies where the tags are
sold, or they may be mailed to
the Department's Portland
office. The address is on the
tag.
Applications for 1982 spring
turkey gobbler hunts will be
accepted by the Fish and
Wildlife Department through
February 3.
Those wishing to apply
should purchase a 1982 Con
trolled Hunt Application Card
from a license agent or at the
Portland headquarters of the
department. Up to two appli
cants may enter on one card
and the license agent will
charge a $1 application fee for
each person. Instructions for
applying and details of the
April hunts can be found in the
1982 Synopsis of Oregon Game
Bird Regulations. Ten hunts in
five areas are scheduled with
600 tags authorized in all, the
release continued.
The drawing for permits
will be held February 12. and
notification to successful ap
plicants will be mailed follow
ing the drawing. Those who
are successful will receive a
billing for the $2 tag. Hunters
must have a 19B2 hunting
license in order to apply.
Last year some 1.B90 valid
applications were received for
8(K) spring gobbler permits
and applicants had a 42
percent chance of drawing a
tag. Bagging a turkey, how
ever, was more difficult.
Hunters reported taking 49
gobblers in 1981 for a 12
percent success rate conclud
