His first book was written in 1911 and since then five standard works have been prepared by his pen and have done much to help spread the gospel of better poultry farming from the Atlantic to the Pacific. His leading works are Productive Poultry Husbandry, Poultry Keeping, and Making Money from Hens. The scientific and popular bulle- tins and circulars which have been prepared by his pen in the past ten years would fill many a volume. It is the results of this fund of knowledge which he has accumulated and has presented to the public in his largest work, Productive Poultry Husbandry, which is a part of our Course. Along with his public life Prof. Lewis has been a poultry breeder, raising White Leghorns and Barred Plymouth Rocks at his home, showing and winning with his birds, and birds of his breeding have often taken prizes and won special distinction at Egg Laying Contests during the past few years. Born in Rhode Island in 188 5, educated at the Providence Technical High School and the Rhode Island State College, graduating from the latter, specializing in Poultry and Animal Husbandry in 1907. Spent boyhood days on a large general and poultry farm in Rhode Island. The farm flock of Barred Rocks way back in 1895 and 18 90 was the pride of this future poultry authority. Grew u
