THE TREE of business is laden with ripening golden fruit. The casual advertiser gives it a vigorous shake, gathers the small and one-time yield, and is discontented that it is not a “bumper” crop. The wise advertiser knows that only so much of the golden fruit will ripen it a time. He shakes the tree a little today and a little more tomorrow. The yield is as great as you deserve it. Keep on shaking the tree with judicious advertising in THE NORTHLAND AGE KAITAIA

FORTY-SIX YEARS of Prohibition in Canada THE STORY OF PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND CANADA’S SMALLEST PROVINCE, PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, CARRIED PROHIBITION IN 1900 AND HAS RETAINED IT EVER SINCE. The story of its success reads almost like a fairy tale, but it is true. With a population of about 100,000, it requires few policemen. There are no gangsters, no highwaymen, very little crime and no penitentiary. There has been no execution for over 40 years. For the years 1942 and 1943 there was not a single conviction for murder, manslaughter, rape, seduction, cruelty to children, wife desertion, non-support of family, and other drinkcaused crimes so frequent in “wet" areas. For non-support of family, etc., there were only three cases per annum against Canada’s average of 3,079. Divorce is almost unknown; in 25 years there have been only I 3 divorces. It is estimated that there are 10,000 motor cars on the island. The roads are winding and dangerous, yet the accident rate is as low as two per year. It is claimed that Prince Edward Island has, per square mile, twice as many people, four times as many cattle, eight times as many poultry as any other province. As regards health, the record of enlistments shows that 71.5 per cent, of the men were fit for service as compared with Canada’s average of 44 per cent. The liquor Trade in New Zealand tries to persuade electors that dreadful things will happen if Prohibition is carried. The record of Prince Edward Island proves that the only dreadful results are the extinction of the liquor trade’s profits.
