FORTY-SIX Business Men aud firms in Ashburton desire, for the accurate information of those at a distance, to state the following facts: — (1) Growth of town as shown by valuation Under License... 1902 .£22,613. Under No-License ... ... 1907 (2) Number of business places largely increased. Not a single vacant shop in business area. (3) New Zealand Farmers’ Co-operative.—Retail business Under License 1902 Under No-License 1906 ,£52,867. (4) In spite of the large business of the N.Z. F.C.A., we have been able to maintain, and in many cases largely to increase our turnover, thus proving conclusively that the total volume of business has largely increased. (5) Ashburton is, in short, in as sound a position commercially to-day as at any period in its history, and any statement which implies otherwise is recklessly contrary to fact. CONVICTIONS FOB DRUNKENNESS. 1902 Under License 117 .1907 Under No-License 44 PROHIBITION ORDERS. 1902 Under License 34 1907 Under No-License 1 The above figures are taken from the S.M.
