pRINCE EDWARD ISLAND is the home of many fur farmers. The high degree of specialization and the recent expansion of the fur industry on this island is phenomenal. In 1923, the provincial reports show that 100 per cent of the fur farms produce foxes exclusively, that 96.8 per cent of the foxes born on the farms were silverblack foxes from superior strains of registered stock, and that the number of farms had increased 77.7 per centduring the past five years.* This prosperous cash animal-crop industry has done much to relieve the industrial stagnation which has been evident on the island since the passing of a profitable lumber and shipbuilding industry
