In fact, they see a tremendous poultry boom coming. Our baby chick men could not get enough suitable eggs last year for their business, to supply their demands. The same condi tion holds this year. . They want more and more. The 200 egg hen was a myth a short while ago. Today we have here in this district the 200 egg flock average, and the 300 egg individual ; and going higher. Up to 337 now. " The first 300 egg hen in the world was produced in the Salem district; at the Oregon Agricultural college. ' The first flock of 13 hens in the world to produce 300 or more eggs each in a year were bred at the Oregon asylum for the insane, at Salem; pronounced by the then (1922) greatest poultry authority living as the best 13 hens in all history. The first 335 Leghorn hen in the world was bred and is owned in the Salem district. The present world record hen, with 351 eggs in a year to her credit, is a White Leghorn, at Vancouver, B. C, where climatic conditions are very similar to ours And long-distance strains are now being developed in. this district with greater success than is attending such efforts elsewhere in all poultrydom. That this is the best poultry district in the world is evident from the above, and from the further fact that our breeders have been repeatedly making world records in laying contests against all comers, and it is not to be wondered at that these facts have brought about a poultry boom in the Salem district We can compete in the big eastern markets with any of our competitors. We are doing so now. We are actually receiving for our first quality Oregon eggs 10 to 15 cents a dozen higher prices than the prices paid for eggs from the middle west. But we couW compete if we received no higher prices. How is this? - Because we produce a hen that lays eggs for a longer time, and that lays more eggs in the year, and we feed her at less cost than she could be fed elsewhere in this country, and weather conditions are such that we require less capital investment per hen here, and less overhead cost So we can turn out eggs at a greater profit than any other section of, this country. . Thus our poultry boom is fully justified. It cannot become too wild a booni It will stand up in the most rigid and search ing investigation of the facts of our natural advantages. Salem will become the greatest poultry center in the world, if she will push the industry. Poultry goes with fruit growing. It is an important part of our five story farming; of intensified agriculture; of the diversified cultivation of the soity The poultry industry is capable of making all other lines of production more solidly prosperous. It is the duty of every one in any way interested in this city and section to help speed up the poultry boom. it is one of the biggest developments that is taking place here. Let the poultry industry here go even to the proportions it has attained in Petaluma, around $20,000,000 a year, and we will beable to adopt the slogan of one of Florida's boom cities: - "Salem is the home acfareso Prosperity."

S V "a There is no three, four, five, six or seven story farming scheme (or upward) that can omit one of the foundation floors of poultry. And in both bush and tree fruit grow ing poultry fits in without ques tion.

Itvwas teo -wet, they, said, among many other supposed draw backs. W s But Lee Steiner. rnnning the asylum for the insane, was crazy enough to believe this was really a good poultry country- and he soon produced the first 300 egg pen of 13 hens in the world; the best laying pen of that size the history of poultrydom had record ed up to that time. "And Dr. Steiner has kept right on with one of the best and largest flocks oi poultry on this coast. Our "section produced the first 300 egg hen in the world; the first 335 egg hen; the first 337 egg hen, and now has the world record with a 351 egg hen.

Just now a poultry colonization project for the Salem district is being considered, and local agents for the promoters of the enterprise are busy seeking a desirable tract at an attractive price, which if successful will prove a wonderful boost or inVetus to the poultry In dustry of the central Willamette valley. Another very encouraging prop osition for the poultry interests of the Salem district is the fact that a prominent and successful poul tryman, a member of the executive board of the American Poultry association arid a poultryman en joying a national reputation, has been in correspondence with the writer for more than a year with the object of establishing a great poultry demonstration farm near Salem similar to one he estab lished two. years ago near Los Angeles. It is his purpose to make this central Willamette valley poultry breeding and demonstra tion farm the distributing plant for filling all northwest orders, while his Los Angeles poultry farm will take care of thei? south western business.

Dr. Walter Brown of Salem told delegates to the annual convention of the Ore gon Tuberculosis association meet ing here today. " This available knowledge is not used, Dr. Brown said to the 100 county association workers, pub lic health nurses and others as sembled in the story hour room of the Central Library, because health workers did not participate enough in governmental affairs. "Most of us have adopted a com munistic point of view about health. We realize that we, if we are wise, will thing in commun ity terms for the prevention of communicable disease. We can no no longer live unto ourselves, not even farmers." Glimpsing a time when health knowledge "will be translated into health wisdom." Dr. Brown pre dicted that "when we really be lieve and feel health, it will hurt us to do anything unhealthy."

() BELATED POOM ARTICLE PI1BTE0 Very Well Written, Submit ted by an Aumsville School Contestant Editor Statesman:. Salem and the surrounding country have all the advantages for poultry rais ing that could be asked. The cli mate is ideal. , Because of the mild winters, chickens can easily be forced to lay all the year round Ii the extreme winter climates so much of the fpod energy is used ip keeping the chicken warm that they cannot lay well. It is easy to raise baby chicks, too. Thev can be raised much earlier here than in the more eastern states. which have colder winters. Salem always furnishes an ex cellent market for the eggs. The bi oilers and friers, which are al ways In, demand, also bring a good price, and If milk-feel and forced sc as to be marketed' early in the season, net a high profit. Most of the farms around Sa lem are small and diversified. As only a small acreage is needed for poultry raising, it works in quite well with this type of farming. Farmers raising berries or fruit, or cows can, witnout great aa- ditional work, care tor several hundred, or up to a thousand chickens; thus bringing some In come all the year. . There are many different breeds of chickens. They are generally divided in the two classes: layers, and the heavier breeds for broil ers and friers. Then there are the funcy breeds raised for exhibition. They are the best bred of the or dinary breeds. White Leghorns are considered the best layers. ..Min orcas are also in the layer class.

Many com mercial hatcheries have been built; and are now carrying 'ton a prosperous business. They are proving so successful that a great many chicken raisers prefer to buy their baby chicks instead ot hatch ing them themselves. Chicks are sent for many miles from these hatcheries around Salem. . Custom Latching is another side to this business. This is a very satis factory method for people wishing to use their own eggs instead ot buying the baby chicks. They can send their own eggs there to be hatched, and are assured of get ting their own chickens. As people are realizing more and more that there Is every oppor tvnity around Salem for success, they are fast coming to the front in the business of poultry raising. Walda Harding.
