"While Oregon offers certain ad

duction such ;is favonible cllninm,
tow land and building cost, rela
tively low feed cowl and abundance
of high quality breeding stock,
these advantages are of no value
unless capitalized by using and
translating I hem into profils
through efficient production nun
marketing," ttie report points out.
Successful marketing, organization
has been developed In tills state,
hence the chief remaining need of
nterprise Is development of
such efficiency In production
will meet successfully the grow
ing competition In other sections
of the country nearer ttie great
market centers.
"It Is char that expansion of
the poultry enterprise in tills slate
Is safe for tlie low cost producer
at any time, but for the high ro.it
producer it is never K-ife. Tho low
