Monthly Marketing
Of Turkeys Seen
From OSC Research
Fresh turkeys may start mov
ing to market every month of
the year If research at Oregon
State college continues to be
successful.
Local News In Brief
Judge and Mrs. Garnet Barratt
returned early this week from
Phoenix and Tucson, Arizonai
where they have spent the past
two months.
Mr. and Mrs. William Collins,
At present, most fresh turkeys and Mrs. Howard Bryant and

spring and the poults that are
hatched from January to May
mature just in time for holiday
markets.
But J. A. Harper, OSC poultry
man, reasoned that if the turkey
hens could be tricked into lay
ing eggs during other seasons,
turkey growers in mild climates
like in Oregon could hatch
and produce turkeys for fresh
markets the year around.
Knowing that changes in len
f'th of day can often affect the
egg-laying habits of poultry,
Harper decided to try to change
the egg-laying habits of turkey
hens by keeping them in dark
ened pens where their "length
of day" could be controlled.
Starting in August, he kept 8
month old hens on nine hours
of light a day for three weeks.
Then, he used artificial lights
along with regular daylight to
give the hens a day length of
17 hours.
The scheme worked. During,
September through November,
the hens laid about half as many
eggs as they normally do in early
spring, almost enougn 10 mane
the idea practical.
Harper thinks he can make the
hens do better, however, and has
several other tricks he wants to
try. If he's successful, fresh
turkeys from Oregon farms may
be reaching mark(ts every day
of the year.

Additional Tree
Seedlings Available
A supply of broadleaf tree
seedlings, suitable for planting
in the eastern part of the state,
is now available at the Oregon
forest nursery near Corvallis, ac
cording to assistant state forester
Vance L. Morrison. The species
include black locust, caragana,
Chinese elm .Russian olive and
Russian mulberry, Morrison
stated.
"Orders must reach the state
forester before the end of March",
the forester stated, "since it will
be necessary to dig all trees by
that time in order to prepare the
ground for the next crop.
"It is recognized that tree
planting in eastern Oregon depends-upon
frost and snow con
ditions but the state maintains a
refrigeration plant at the nur
sery and the trees can be stored
until shipping time as indicated
by the individual ordering the
trees."
Information relative to order
ing the trees may be secured by
writing the state forester at Sa
lem or getting in touch with the
local county agent's office. '
