Prince Edward Island.

The Tribune has received a fine
pamphlet issued as a supplement 10
the Charlottetown Guardian, Prince
Edward Island, which depicts with
we'll printed text and plates the re-
sources and progress Of that small but
wideawake part Of Canada. 1t was ~
Charlottetown fifty years ago that the
first conference was held which led u
the founding of the Dominion of Can
ada, and the supplement is issued in
honor OF this anniversary.
Prince Edward Island has an area
of 2,184 square miles and a population
of 1921 per square mile. 1t is all cul-
tivated, having nearly $4,000 farms
ranging from ten to two hundred
acres. The farm products were valu-
ed at nearly fourteen million dollars
in 1914. The island is widely known
for it's fox and fur farms, which are
valued at 26 million dollars. The peo-
pie have succeeded in the homestead
ing and breeding in captivity of the
famous silver foxes, and the industry
brings much money to the island. One
of the striking features Of the publ
cation is the pictures of the Fox
Conference" a group of men who d.
reefs this industry, there being 372
ranchers engaged in the business.
There are also extensive fisheries, and
the island is acquiring a reputation
as delightful summer resort. Mr..
J. R. Burnett, the editor, has our sim
cere thanks for the publication. The
printing of the same in the war time
which needs must strike Prince Ed
ward Island as we'll as other parts Of
Canada, shows a commendable spirit
of local pride and enterprise.

of the things in which the news of the
