203.1152.1

This float, sponsored by the poultry department, in the 1922 VEISHEA (Iowa State College's first in this long line of the student-directed festival) parade proclaims "ANNUAL EGG PRODUCTION IN IOWA/160,000,000 DOZEN EGGS/VALUE $150,000,000" The float looks as if it is mounted on a hay wagon. The old Dairy Building, which became East Hall in 1928 after the opening of the new Dairy Industry Building, is in the background.
