Oregon Wheat Crop Would Fill Train Many Miles Long If the total of this year's Oregon wheat crop were load ed into boxcars on a single train, the mythical train would stretch from Portland to Seattle. According to the Agrl Business Council, the contents of this 175 mile long train would be worth over $53 mil lion. Although the wheat crop Is expected to be down from last year's yield, total production will be about 29.6 million bushels. This wheat is grown on 1.018,000 acres. Oregon's wheat crop Is used primarily for pastry Items. Agrl-Buslness Council notes that a dozen donuts cost about 60 cents at the retail level. One bushel of wheat will make approximately 82 dozen donuts, with a retail value of $50. If prices are good for the farmer, he will receive from $1.75 to $1.80 for this bushel of wheat.

Establishes new bonding limitation for higher education and community college educational and general purpose build ing programs at amount equal to three-fourths of one peroent of true cash value of taxable property in state. Restricts bond issues in any biennium to amount of matching legislative ap propriation. Authorizes financing of higher education building programs from combined sources. Prohibits using Article XI-G bond proceeds for wholly self-liquidating and self-sustaining programs. ESTIMATE OF FINANCIAL EFFECTS: This amendment to Ar ticle XI-G would increase the bonding limit for Higher Educatien and Community College educational and general purpose build ing programs from $30 million to approximately $113 million.

The 1967 Special Legislative Session approved issuing $9.35 million In bonds out of the increased bonding limit to be established by this measure. Average principal and interest payments in the next thirty years to retire these bonds will be approximately $560,000 per year. Published pursuant to provisions of ORS 249.356.
