_The JOHN R. DINNIS PEDIGREED FOXES LIMITED _was the first Company to register its

foxes in the Prince_E_dward island Silver Fox Breeders Association. The Certificates of Registration Number One to Twenty-two. The Pedigrees which may be inspected in the books of the Fox Breed- ers’ Association, Charlottetown, trace the breeding of the animals back for three generations to lglenu- ine ranch-bred Prince Edward Island Black Foxes. (Class A.) The foundation stock of the DI NIS PEDIGREED FOXES was selected from the pens of the pioneer ranchmen---Charles Dalton and Oulton, Alberton and from the famous Rayner Ranch, Alberton, Prince Edward Island. The crossing of these' two noted strains has 'produceda 'beautiful vigorous large animal that combines the fine ric 1 lustrous fur of the one breed with the high ‘quality blood and phenomenal protluctiveness of the other. The ancestors of spme of these 'foxcssoi for the highest prices fon the London Market. (SeefAccou'nt

I I I ' Grounds for ,xtenslon ~ _ _

_ _ In the opinion of the Directors the best policy is' to"`g dually enlarge the' Comparly by the addition ofa certain number of select pairs _each year till 'the Industry settles down to a pelt basis.

It is a policylwhich looks to the future interests of the' sharolidalers, and if judiciously and persistenly carried out will place the Company -in a position to cany on.a permanent business for years O' come. A large, rand# can afford to have more conveniences and better equipment thanfsmaller ones, afnd at the same time because the busin ss can better organised, many economies may be ca-rri__ ou tin theil‘liiinagZ-iment andrdnniiig‘expeiises,'lncluding fot'idl>,'i'srilén‘l`es`, wages and advertising. Moreover the JOHN R. DINNIS PEDIGREED FO ES LllVlIl_`ED with twenty-two pairs of foxes wi offer a better insurance to the investor than a Company with live 'or.'ten'pairs. Where one’s investment is _spread over a large number'of animals the law of averages assures a steadieif and rigors certain return th ri where it is all placed in a few airs. I ‘ - _ ` _ ,_ _'_ 1 ‘_
