90 of Oregon farmers own their own farms, and thus head the list
of the state's property taxpayers.
Every school district in Oregon will be aided by the Sales Tax.
One-sixth of the Sales Tax revenues go direct to school districts,
.vhich enables each district to vote special levies in like amount with
out increasing the present property tax.
