It is this awakening,, of public in-

-uJtrmately the greatest value Willcome
▪ from the establishing. of ' records of
performance that will be ailove re-

In the past records have been pub-
lished that were made solely under
the supervision of the owner. 1Lt'iv
of these needed to be taken with a
grain of salt, •but" when records arc
made in public contests governinent
sur;cr•visicn creates a confidb'i:ce that
• is not felt i i home records.
With a: vies• to stimulatieg interest
in production, the Dominion Experi-
mental Farms have estahlishe:l--egg,
laying contests throughout Canada
. The first of these was started at -Char-
lottetown, P. E. I., on November 1,
1918, and created so nrnch interest in
that province that on the •following*
November 1, six other contests were
started .as follows:

Federal contests of twenty pone each
at Nappan N. :t.• Cape Rouge, Que.,
