THE LITTLE WHITE
HEN IS QUEEN
Petaluma Is the Center of the
Poultry Business in the
United States

of This Great Community

PETALUMA. March 24.—We are told
eggs were hatched artificially In large
ovens many years before the Christian
era. This industry has during modern
times been developed and brought to
Its highest usefulness In Petaltirua,
Cal. It has been a story of gradual
.growth from difficult and discouraging
beginnings to the present standard of
recognized superiority. The hen and
the incubator have been side partners
In Petaluma. Each has contributed to
the fame of the other. And despite the
conflicting claims of motherhood there
has been no rivalry.'
Thoughts of Petaluma call to mind a
district of low hills, an expansive land
scape dotted with myriads of white
leghorns. Covering an area of approxi
mately 240 square miles, the little
white hen rules as the undisputed
queen. From % summit that commands
a general view, one may count the*
poultry farms and the Industrious lit
tle white mistresses until the mind
reels with the ascending totals. From
some elevated points 150,000 hens may
be seen. - .".~ •-*■ ■...'■■^■.
It Is told that L. «'. Byce, who was
raised on a Canadian farm and became
Interested In the poultry industry dur
ing his boyhood, sowed the seeds which
have made Petaluma the center of the
chicken and egg business.
FOl'.\D FEW FOWLS
He came to California in 1878. The
enormous prices offered in San Fran
cisco for eggs caused him to turn his
knowledge of poultry to good account,
and he therefore decided to engage in
poultry raising, but, owing to the
.scarcity of fowls In California, it was
difficult to get a start. With a wagon
lie drove through all the country sur
rounding Petaluma for three weeks and
barely succeeded in getting together a
] few dozen hens. Later on he purchased
fowls and eggs.from eastern fanciers.
. From these fowls and eggs he not only
got a good start, but also Interested
others in the poultry business, which
has grown to such enormous propor
tions. With the use of incubators of
his own construction he soon had a
very large Hock of fowls.
Today Petaluma is regarded as the
.poultry and egg center of the United
States. The Industry has served as
the-basis for a big and increasing com
merce. The selection of Petaluma as
the "empire for the hen was not :by
chance. The choice was made with
consummate wisdom. The light soil is
especially suited for the purpose. The
rolling nature 06 the country provides
natural drainage. The soil does not

A PROSPEROUS COMMUNITY *
Again the selection was made with
an eye to transportation. , The Peta
luma creek leads to the bay and light
boats carry down their thousands of
cases of eggs at very small cost.
With poultry and eggs as the chief
industry, a prosperous community has
grown up in and about Petaluma. In
cubator factories led the way for more
factories, until today the city ranks
high among, the industrial centers of
the state. The Incubator was not in
troduced without a struggle. At first
there were many doubters. The old
machines had been able to. hatch only
a small percentage of the eggs.-. When
the Incubators were perfected at Peta
luma it became necessary to give count
less demonstrations and to exhibit at
state and county fairs to convince the
public of the efficiency of the con
trivance. When this had been done,
the poultry and egg business was given
the great Impetus that has carried' it
to its present high level.
