The organization of the American Poultry Association was effected at Buffalo. New York. February, 1873, by delegates from different state and county associations, prominent breeders, fanciers, and other interested persons from different sections of the United States and Canada. Mr. W. H. Churchman of Wilmington. Delaware, was the first president and Mr. J. M. Wade of Philadelphia, the first secretary.

At that time the fundamental object of this organization was to standardize the different varieties of domestic and ornamental fowls, and to that end. a complete Standard of Excellence, for all varieties then recognized, was formulated and adopted which was recommended as the guide for judging at all poultry exhibitions. The American Poultry Association has since broadened its scope and annual conventions have visited nearly all of our large industrial centers.

The first edition of the Standard was issued in February, 1874. It has been followed by several revised editions, but the work of the first Standard makers was so thorough, accurate and far-seeing that but few changes, and these of minor importance, have been necessary. Many new breeds and varieties, nearly all of later origin, have been admitted. After a few editions, the title "Standard of Excellence" was changed to read. "Standard of Perfection" as one. theoretically at least, more in accord with its prescribed ideals.

Until 1905, all editions contained text descriptions only, and no attempt was made to delineate ideal fowls. The 1905 edition contains this innovation. The illustrations were line drawings by the best known poultry artists of that time. These were received with approval, in sufficient measure so that the plan of presenting outline illustrations of many of the leading varieties were continued.
