Maxwell Smith on Commercial
Fruit Growing
Mr. Maxwell Smith, Dominion Fruit
Inspector, who is always a welcome
visitor   to   Hevelstoke,   delivered the
principal  address  at  the banquet   to
the delegates of the Fruit and l'roduce
Exchange   ol   British   Columbia   on
Tuesday  night.     In  bis opeuiug remarks he stated tbat be was iu Revelstoke   quite   recently   defending  the
Canadian    nag,    and   be    tben    referred    to  the   resolution   passed at
tbe couvention ol B. C. school trustees
recently beld in tbis city urging  tbat
tbe Canadian Hag be used in   schools
of the province.    In dealing with the
fruit industry and tbe Fruit and Produce  Exchange, he pointed out that
be  had  misgivings at  first  as to its
success,   and   now tbat  it  bad  been
launched  and  had  had  a  trial run,
perhaps   with   many   set   backs aud
mistakes, chiefly trom lack of proper
brains, be urged that the  association
be laid on foundations deep and strong
aud tben branch cut, and with a solid
basis build up the superstructure  and
stay by it.   He said that be was convinced  that  the   exchange   bad   the
right idea, but tbat  for such a young
organization  with  no capital- put up
to back  it  up, tbe exchange bad attempted too much.    Co-operation was
the fundamental principle of all progress, and this co-operation was abso
lulely essential for the luture develop
ment aud prosperity ol the fruit industry.    He   referred   to   tbe   B.   C.
shipment of apples  to Australia, and
disabused   the   minds   that   tried to
claim that the shipment »as bad, and
p linted out bis criticism ol  tbe Iruil,
while not detrimental, bad done good,
be simply eaying that tbis  particular
shipment  wai  not up to  the   UBual
standard, although tbe apples sold in
Australia  for six   cents   a   piece, in
spite ol tbe glut iu tbe market at tbe
time.     British   Columbia   fruit   bad
been taken in preference to American
fruit.    He explained that tbe  inspectors criticism ol the II. C. shipment to
Australia, and indeed  to other parts,
had  been used by British  Columbia's
rivals against tho   province, wdich act
was brought about to get credit at the
expense of some one else.    It is the
best snd surest principle to study your
own delects belore criticising others.
Failures   invariably   teach     lessons,
though experience is a hard  mistress.
In   touching   on   packing   fruit,   he
urged tbe importance of packing and
-lopping in   good shape, and practical
packers    were   absolutely   necessary.
.Salmon Aim had   got  into  bad   odor
with  the central  excliange and  had
put up bad fruit, chielly through inability  and  inexperience   in   correct
methods ol packing and grading, consequently the growers at  that point
practically  placed tho  blame on the
central exchange for not selling their
Iruit at better  prices, and  lieing disgusted  pulled out ol   the exchange.
Now, Salmon Arm has a good   packer
and the (mil hss been consequently in I
200(1   demand.     Regarding   orebard .
early grading on the trees, for just as
good fruit will result alter the trees
nad been properly trimmed ot bad
fruit. He then touched on the refri-
geiator carriage [of fruit, and urged
that all fruit be put into tbe cars in a
cool stato, and instancing one cnee
when in Hevelstoke he bad opened a
ear et fruit and more hot air came
out than Joe Martin could give in a
political campaign. This car had
come Inm the Okanagan district. In
discussing generalities, Mr. Maxwell
Smith said that B. C. did not get »
square di ul on the prairies, and he
urged the great importance of marking
and grading hi lore shipment., as the
prairie poinis seemed always ready to
turn down everything that was not
correctly marked and graded. The
Dominion Covernment should employ
more fruit inspectors to see that Iruit
from the United States was marked.
and graded, the same as iu B. C
He enlarged on tlie great luture ol the
fruit industry and agriculture, explaining that, horticulture was the
poetry of agriculture, which would be
the greatest industry of all in a few
years. Tbe fruit industry was ns yet
in its iulancy and cannot be overdone,
although some people claimed that
very soon tbere would be a bigger
supply than could be possibly marketed. In conclusion, he alluded to
the unbounded hospitality of Hevelstoke and congratulated the mayor on
his city.
GOVERNMENT DAM
Work of Strengthening Recommences
The Hon. P. W. Aylmer, Dominion
Government Engineer, has informed
us that the work on   the   government
dam bas been recommenced and will
be pushed forward ss quickly as pus-
sible.    A large quantity ot rock will
be dumped at the end of the (Ihiii in
order to strengthen the structure from
all possible damage from  drift  word
and logs Hunting down tliu river. With
a solid  backing o!  rock the dam will |
bo permanently sute.   From '25 to 1!0
men will be employed, as well as seven
teams.   F. Heden is in charge of the
work.     The   dam,   when   the   extra
weight has been put on at the [a' end,
will be absolutely secure, and with the
successive deposits of sand aud silt on
the lower Bide, which will go on  from
year   to year, a  natural   permanent
bank will eventually form, which will
be  capable of resisting  the  heaviest
1 current or any (1 ating obstructions
Tbe principal of construction,although
simple, has yet proved effective, and
the dam bas been tbe main factor in
preventing any   erosion   of   tbe river
bank, at  tbe  skating  rink, trom increasing, aided by the mattrasB work
of the provincial engineers.

Judge Forin was oneol the principal
speakers on Wednesday night, and in
his address he pointed out that Ontario fruit growers were suffering (rom
the etVects of not co-operating and allowing the j ibbers to get the upper
hand. The growers now toiiud it impossible to gei together (or their own
interests. He urged lhat for the
benefit ol the B. C. fruit industry, as
well as ol the individual growers, that
co-operation be brought about, und
that now was the time ti get busy

and distribution of our fruit is
practically the chief factor in the
development of the fruit industry
the opinion of such men .must be
taken at their full worth.
From now onwards the B. C,
Exchange will operate on a different basis and the mistakes made in
the past will teach valuable lessons
and show that the growers must do
their part and piny the game as
well. Co-operation will eventually
bring about the desired results,
while strict commercial lines in llie
central exchange cannot but give
the impetus lo what is rightly
termed the back-bonu of lhu industrial enterprises of British
Columbia.
