SUGGESTS REESTABLISIIING TANNERY-"The suggestion has been made to revive the tanning industry in this province," says a Summerslde exchange. "Years ago there was a. tannery in operation

in practically every village and town in Prince Edward Island butl during the past few years the in-

dustry has died out; completely. 1t, is felt that a tannery would do well at the present time due to the very low price of hides and the high price of leather. A farmer who call- ed at this office the other day and advanced the suggestion stated that: he had two hides at home that he wouldhot even bother bringing here for sale as they would bring so little but he added that if there was a tannery convenient he would be Willi"! l0 DB1’ a reasonable price to have them tanned and no doubt hundreds of farmers in the prov- ince will be willing 1.0 do likewise cimsidfl we the quantity of leather that is usually needed on the or- dinary farm for harness, harness repairs. belting, etc. that; now costs =0 hishly in proportion m the price of hides."
