Turkeys are successfwljr raised in
Oregon, and turkey« are known to be
easily affe ted by rain, but the fact
that the rains are warm no doubt
largely accounts for the success in tur
key raising in this state.
Douglas

several
times more turkeys than the state of
Rhode Island, noted for turkeys.
Another thing in favor o f the m ild
clim ate and freedom from snow Is that
the fow ls are able to secure practically
the year ronnd a ll the green food neces
sary in the fields. And finally, the
fow ls in their search for food in the
fields get the exercise which in neces
sary for it is worthy of mention in this
connection that the
largest special
poultry district ¡ d the United States is
found in Northern California, that has
no snowfall. That district ie somewhat
sim ilar to that of W estern Oregon, with
its open winters, m ild and humid c li
mate and nearness to the ocean.
M y investigations of the poultry in
dustry of Oregon have been confined to
the western pert of the state, the region
west of the Cascade mountains. This
section at the present tim e produces
more poultry products than the larger
area of the state east of the Cascades.
As the agriculture of Central and East
ern Oregon becomes developed w e may
expect grrater developm ent of pou ltry
keeping, and probably in tim e that
great agricultural area may produce
more poultry product* than the older
aecticn o f the ttate in W estern Oregon.

we may expect a great growth of the
