Description : James Dryden is the only poultryman in the National Agricultural Hall of Fame. While a professor at Oregon Agricultural College, now Oregon State University, he bred Lady McDuff, the first hen ever documented to lay more than 300 eggs per year as well as Oregona, the first hen proved to have laid more than 1,000 eggs during a laying career. Professor Dryden probably did more to make affordable instead of rare luxury items than any individual in the history of agriculture.

You can look him up on the National Agricultural Hall of Fame webpage.
