OREGON FARMER 



If anything were needed to prove that conditions are favorable in Oregon to the 

 poultry industry it would be found in the egg records that have been made by laying 

 fowls at the Oregon Experiment Station at Corvallis. During 1912, egg records were 

 secured that exceeded those made in any other state, in the Union so far as au then tie 

 records are concerned. For the fiscal year, ending September 10, 1913, one hen at the Oregon 

 Experiment Station broke the world's record by laying 291 eggs in twelve months, the 

 previous record being 282. The Oregon hen laid 99 eggs in 100 consecutive days in the Spring.
