The college bred hen 0-453, which on Wednesday last com pleted a year of laying by depositing her two hundred and ninety-first egg. broke, by an Increase of nine eggs, the world's record, made In 111 by a Ca nadian hen, The mark-was also 10 eggs more. than that of tha former American champion, a product of the . Missouri experiment station. The new 'champion is a direct cross between a fiyraoutn Rock and a White Leghorn. ; There are several features worthy or note In the work of the Oregon hen. Previous te this time, for Instance, all experiments. have been carried on under the most Intensive conditions. Five or six hens In a flock, and a large number or riocKa to work wttn, nave constituted tne materials .with which other breed era have -labored. No commercial ven ture could be carried - out Upon such lines. To prove that a record-breaking hen could be - raised 1 under tha condi tions -of tha ideal commercial culture, Professor Dryden, head of the poultry department or the Oregon Agricultural college, outlined the system of breeding followed, resulting in the production of a marvelous iowi, unaer- ma usuai methods of oaraand feeding. , . Feeding and general cars must be gooduln order' to produce the best re sults. There were no valuable or dainty foods given tha flock with, which the experiment was carried on. Only the common feed given all the hens at the Oregon station was . set before them. This consisted mainly of a moist bash, fed in the morning. Two or three times a week this was moistened with butter milk, -the other days with water. .Whole grains, Willamette valley oats and east ern Oregon wheat; green feed, such a kale and sometimes clover; and animal food, consisting of beet scraps, kept be fore them continually, -completed the diet given the f look. v. ;The important nnr tit th ImmAln Was not in the kind of food fed, but In the banner Of feed lag. The ration was an- Oregon ration, low Sliced, and one suitable to the puree of every poultry raiser In the state. Nr1 excessive amount of labor .was expends J in the care of. the flock. "v Fifty hens constituted the flock. from October 16, 1912, until June, 1913. From that time on there were but 40 hens In the. pen. The colony house was merely a movable house, costing about 125 to build, 7x11 feet in diameter, 'with one end entirely open, for ventilation. This type of house has been, used by , the Ore gon station for-several years, - and has been recommended for use of the Ore gon poultrymen, 1 for commercial use. The running pen was about 60x100 feet, roomy, but still : not free, '.range, y A small scratching shed was made out of cheap limber, to keep the fowls busy, both house and shed -were moved twice onto fresh ground. r'.. ;.'.,-. : V Another feature of interest is that the Oregon ben- began laying when but five and one-half months.-old.' She was hatched von April 29,' 1911, and began laying on October IS. The eggs were larger than the eggs of - the bens oa most of the other experiments, averag ing about two ounces each. In the 11 months she laid Is pounds of eggs, or about nine times the weight of her own body. , ,v--..; ;y. -u vt : or ail animals, tlus nen - is pre eminently the greatest producer of food. dflo ' Christian Advocate; address of welcome.
