N this, as in every other country,

the popultaion is matte up of two main classes, ruraland urban. Their occupations are necessarily (lifter- ent but they have a main common purpose, namely, the betterment of their own community and or the province generally. There are no feelings oi jealousy between town and country. it is recognized by both that neither can profit at the expense of the other. but that mu- tual prosperity can be attained only by mutual helpfulness and (to-Oper- otion. m‘ Perhaps this mutuality is not us strongiylqmphasized as it ought to be.

The Anti-Saloon League year book for 1925 o11 page 11, gives among other interesting items the number of illicit stills seized by the federal authorities during the years 1920 to 1924. The report leaves no room for doubt as to the activities of the federal authorities, b11t there is considerable room for doubt as to Ithe efficacy of their efforts. The number of illicit stills seized dur~ ing those years is as followsz~ 4,888 in 1920; 10,991 in 1921; 10,994 in 1922; 14,000 in 1923; 15,853 1n 1924. We have not the figures for '25 and '26. It’ we had they would no doubt show a similar increase.
