The 1919 Legislature establishes The Manitoba Poultry Breeders Association replacing the old Manitoba Poultry Association. Local chapters may form within fifteen miles of another group and must affiliate within six months. Grants equal to 60 percent of prize money aid affiliated shows, up to 590 dollars.

The 1919 session amended the Hotel Act to allow licensees to operate two pool tables and run a cafe or ice cream stand with the same license.

Penalties include fines up to 109 dollars and possible imprisonment.
