Adam wheat farmer, and Chairman of the Commission. Crop production was set on the conservative side due to winter damage of fall seeded wheat, which increased the seeding of spring grain. "Spring wheat does not produce the yield of winter wheat," Tubbs said, "so we are looking at less production than we had in the past two years." Taking first priority in the budget are on-going research projects at Oregon State University. "We continue to look for higher yields and disease resistant varieties of wheat," stated Tubbs, "so we look to the University for those answers." The dividend to farmers has been an increase in average yield per acre in the State of Oregon from 25 to over 40 bushels. Developing new markets has been important to Oregon wheat farmers for several years, so the next largest grant will go to the Western Wheat Associates, the market development arm for Pacific Northwest wheat organiza tions. The Commission cooperates with the Oregon Wheat Grow ers League in the areas of public relations, information, development of domestic markets, transportation studies, and exhibits for state and county fairs. Oregon wheat producers took the lead several years ago when they established the first wheat commission in the U.S. Twelve other wheat producing states have similar commissions, financed by growers to work on wheat grower problems. Copies of the budget are available upon request, at the Wheat Commission office in Pendleton. Serviceman in training Pvt. Bart E.
