STATE CHAMBER SEEKS
TO DOUBLE POPULATION
ON FARMS IN 3 YEARS
Oregon has water resources to Ir
rigate 4,000,000 acres of land now tin
productive, and which would support
In comfort, 200,000 new population, or
about 4U.OO0 new families.
If in Its three year's campaign to
put families on Oregon's vacant land,
the Oregon State Chamber of Com
merce can bring 1,000 families to util
ize this land and water, it will mean in
expenditures alone for such commodi
ties as clothing, food, furniture, etc.,
of (1,000,000, calculating the expendi
tures for an entire family at only
f 1000 per year, to say nothing of the
wealth produced by these new settlers
Land setthjtnent Is one of the chief
ajms of the Oregon State Chamber of
Commerce c - "ni-aw In Its
movement to aid In the development of
the Slate.

Oregon has 16,000,000 acres of till
able land now uncultivated.
Oregon produced 20,400,000 bushels
of wheat In 1319.
If Oregon's 16,000.000 acres of till
able but uncultivated land were planted
In wheat and the yield were the Ore
gon average for ten years- -21.9 bushels
per acre new production would be
350.400,00 bushels which, at the price
today of (3 per bushel, would mean a
cash value of $1,051,200,000.
The Oregon State Chamber of Com
merce expects to double the number
of farmers In three years. If this
means double the wheat crop; It will
mean an additional yield of 20.400,000
busXels of wheat, which at the pre
vailing price would mean a cash value
In new money of $61,200,000.
