Report of the ninth and tenth annual Canadian national egg laying contests / by A.G. Taylor. : A12-2/139-1930E-PDF
"The purpose of the Canadian National Egg Laying Contest may be said to be two-fold. (1) To stimulate interest in the breeding of birds for egg production. (2) To provide a medium of qualification for registration. ... The main purpose of the contest, however, is to provide a medium of qualification for registration of poultry. This is a unique undertaking, as Canada is the only country in the world where egg-laying contests have been so standardized as to make this undertaking possible in a national way, and also where poultry registration on the production basis, backed by a federal government has been put into effect"--p. [3].
