seven million bushels. Aud we desire to
again draw attention to the tact. that wheat
is only one OF a-large number of products
cultivated in this valley, all of which would
tiapend more or less on the Yaquina Bay
railroad for transportation to market. We
refer to these facts because ignorant and
malicious parties have declared that the
entire product OF wheat in the State for
1880 was but little more than the amount
we claim for the counties of the Central
Valley. Ignorance, prejsdicc and greed
has retarded the growth of this favored
section for years but we have great hope
that truth and righteousness viii yet tri-
