tion and mating highrecord hens to males
from highrecord hens. the higher the bet
ter. to produce hishrecord progeny.
p, Eight years ago the poultry world was
startled With the announcement from the
Oregon station that q real S00-egg hen had
been produced at that station. Lady Mao
Duff, as the frst champion vas called had
record OF 303 eggs, by official .trap.nest
test. A-27, another Oregon college cham
pion hen. was the first hen In the world to
make a trap.nest record Of 1000 eggs In u
lifetime. Her complete record was ,1,lss.
The capacity of hen is commonly meas
ured by poultry breeders in terms Of her
annual egg yield, and the proof OF trans
mission is shown II the female progeny
produces not necessarily as many eggs ~
the parent but an actual increase over the
average production Of the INBRED flock Of
this breed. From the records Of the Ore
gon station, however, II 10 shown that an
individuals real capacity may be better
demonstrated In shorter periods OF produc-
tion, environmental conditions being under
better control. The months OF March and
April are the best months for such short
period tests, durlnK Whicn ume " ID pos
sible to check the hen by trap-nests and
calculate the number OF eggs she will lay
during her entire period under satisfactory
conditions.
The contesting hens at the California
egg'laying contest were kept under model
conditions. The champion consumed Il
pounds of mash. II pounds OF grain. J
pounds OF shell and pounds OF grit during
the year. Barley greens and kale were
fed In Winter and red clover In Summer.
Barley freshly sprouted was fed In litte:

hen. In addition TO the new mark just set
by Lady Dryden
In experiments at the Oregon Agricul
tural College experiment station with
Barred Plymouth Rocks an inheritance o;
fecundity. . very significant thing in the
variation in the records of individual hens.
The original flock Of ninety.two made re-.
ords varying from 21S eggs as the highest
to six a. the lowest. the average being
S614 for the nrst year.
The second year of the experiment was
conducted with twenty Weight hens. Matched
from the frst.year flock without selection
and sired by males Of pedigree of unknown
production. In this case the highest rec.
ord was 1873 and the lowest so, a range be-
tween highest and lowest Of 12S. The aver.
age Of the individual records of this yard
was l20.6S
A further development was obtained with
the third generation, In which the highest
producer laid 21S eggs and the lowest 45
eggs.
Lady Drydens performance at the Calf
fornia egg-laying contest proved that tn.
characteristics Of heavy laying are inner.
tied. Other examples, notably one with
twenty hens, shows the result Of breeding
In the flock. In the frst year the average
Of the twenty hens was 235.75. gradual
decrease was shown each year for five
years, the average for the fifth year being
1872.
This record means that It Is possible to
increase the years Of profitable production
Even the record OF the sixth year. 107 eggs,
Is considerably above the average produc-
tion OF the hers OF the United States. IL
the focks Of the country can be bred up 50
that their period OF profitable production
will be extended from about two years to
four or FIVE years a great saving will have
been effected. adding millions to the in
come of the producers Of the country, au.
thorities say.
There are 400, 900 900 hens in the United
States that are laying eggs, and the united
product Of eggs and poultry amounts to
value Of more than billion dollars year.
Yet the hens that lay the eggs average
fewer than 100 q year-about seventy
according to Federal census. Here Is
hen Of breed made In America that lays
nearly Ave times the number of the aver.
age hen, and she comes from family that
has, by scientific breeding, been made to
lay three times the number OF eggs laid
by the average American hen.

6 \o Dryden Turned On the Bright Electric Lights at 4o'C1ock
Euery Morning. Woke Up Lady DRYDEN Got Her Out and
Worked Long She Almost Scratched Her Mails Off

early In the afternoon. A dry scratch, con-
sisting Of wheat, whole barley, cracked
corn and milo, was scattered In litter morn
Ing and evening.
The dry-mash formula consisted Of q
ratio OF eco pounds Of bran, $50 pounds
gray .middlings. $50 pounds gr ,and oats,
100 pounds meat scrap. 80 pounus soy bean
meal. 20 pounGs fne charcoal. 10 pounds
medium charcoal and I pounds salt. The
total cost OF food for one hen for the year
was S2.5o-the value OF Lady Dryden's eggs
at 45 cents q dozen was s1216,
The morning feed OF the scratch. grain
mixture was scattered In the straw litter
before dark tho preceding day at the rata
Of about four pounds to the 100 hens. so
that the fowls could begin scratching for
their breakfast as soon IS they left their
roosts In the early morning hours.
The dry mas. was kept before the fowis
at all times. except IN some instances where
the fowls consumed too much mash. In
such pens the consumption was regulated
by closing the mash noppers' all or part
OF each morning.
r1nely cut, tender green feed was placed
In the food hoprers about $3.50 In the morn.
Ing and replenished a. often a. necessary
to keep fresh greens before the fowls all
day. During the Winter young green bar
ley was fed ss green's, while In the Summer
the greens consisted largely OF red clover,
with some kale and chard.
In mid.afternoon one pound Of sprouted
oats or barley with sprouts about one.third
inch long, was scattered in the litter for
each pen Of thirty.six fowls.
One hour before dusk the evening feed
The Washington times., 1922-06-11

. All phases of the contest were conducted
under expert management according to the
most modern and approved methods. All
birds were trap nested, and any eggs weigh
ing less than eighteen ounces to the dozen
and any which were malformed or soft
shelled were not included in the records.
All eggs counted had to be up to the re-
quired standard.
The contest laying house was Of the fun
monitor type, approximately 300 feet LONG
and 26 feet wide, with side walls feet
high, and with a six-foot alley down the
centre. The pen batteries. which held
thirty-six hens, were 10 by 16 feet, allow
ing four square feet OF floor space 10 the
hen. Each pen was equipped with eighteeG
trapnests, which allowed one nest for ever
two hens. The windows in the full monitor
top and in the east and west walls admitted
abundant light. while the ventilation sys-
tenn was especially designed to keepthe air
OF the house pure and free from odors even
during the dampest weather.
In the Winter months the electric lights
were used from or 4:30 in the morning
until daylight. as already mentioned. In
this way the working day Of the hen was
heightened, resulting in general increase
In egg production.
From evidence Of toenails worn halfway
down, as shown elsewhere on this page.
Lady Dryden took full advantage OF the
daylight and electric lights as a means OF
securing additional working hours. The
condition of her toenails would Indicate
that she was hen Of extreme vigor, work
ing overtime. which was a big factor in
her remarkable achievement.
The Washington times., 1922-06-11


This hen was entered In the California
contest with nine other Barred Rocks from
the Oregon station. Pens OF college strain
finished first and second in the contest In
an entry of $40 birds The pen average
NJ tho winners was 244 eggs. as compared
with a contest average Of 1856.
At the end OF the contest Lady Dryden
had laid 2SS eggs, not having begun laying
till December H. She was LETT to COM
plete her full year at the request OF the
manager who was greatly impressed by
her prolific laying.
This Is not freak" record, as excep
tional records are often thought to be, say
the station poultry breeders, but logical
outcome Of scientific breeding OF hens for
high fecundity, started by Professor Dry
den at the station In 1908.
When hen 72, as Lady Dryden was called
at the egg.laying station, started laying
she continued for six days without q stop,
which was considered remarkable for
pullet Just starting laying. From that time
ON she was a consistent layer, missing
more than one consecutive day only once
