The Weber Gompany A new By-Law re the Canadian Weber Gas Kugine Company ap- pears iu this issue of the STAR. In its"essential points it is not greatly different from the former document except in two particulars. 1 The amount of the loan is now $30000, to be repaid in twenty yearly pavments of $1.5c0 and in- terest on the whole amount of the unpaid debt. 2 The campany must have $s50.- 000 paid up capital before being able to claim the loan from the town. We believe that those who saw objections to the former by-law are satisficd with this one and are prepared to support it. 'I'his may vot Le true in every case, but some of the leading men who could not vote for the first by-law have said that this vue mects their approval. kpple Conditions in Ontario From the Toronto Globe. The **apple-bosses*" of Qntario have a grievance and are grumb- ling They make complaints against the fruits marks act. and besides that, their pocket-books are thinner by a few thousands of collars since last year's apple crop was harvested. These men, who represent the great English apple- masters at Liverpool, whose gangs strip the trees, whose factorics make the barrels, who pack the fruit, store it in cold storage ware houses, or ship it all over the world, ard who paid over to the farmers in that strip-of land ico miles long and 20 miles wide lying west of of Belleville, on the nerth shore of Lake Outario, probably | $400,000 for their orchards alone last year, are complaining, not of this year's apple prospects, for they are quite cheerful, but be- cause the fruit marks act, as they claim, is forcing them almost out of business and because it is so ad- ministered by the inspectors as to make the Domirion's efforts to maintain Canada's apple reputa- tion react seriousiy upon the ship- ping men. "They're houndin' us to death," declared one rather dejected ship- per in a tone alinost pathetic; "when an apple shipper secs an inspector coming into an orchard he has his heart in his mouth, No matter how y' select your apples. no matter how they're packed, it seems as though you just natur ally couldn't get 'em to suit.' He was a reputable packer; he was in earnest, and what he said was cchoed by other large shippers seen by your correspondent. Thep are all more or less 'blue' since last fall. They lost money on the crop in every way, and though the yield was enormous the crop was of bad quality, which naturally brought upon the heads of the shippers a large number of penalties. They intend, it is stat- ed to petition Hon. Sydney Fisher before the apple season begins asking that apples be inspected at point of shipment only, in summer as in winter ; that the standard for "No. 2" apples be altered; and that the shippers be placed in a position less at the mercy of in- spectors, who, they claim, are in many cases deficient in practical knowledge of apples. Some ship: pers are not complaining and some say less than others, but there appears to be a general feeling | that the law is too drastic, or in its too un- bending. - why Last year was a bad one. One large Belleville shipper. is said to have lost $100,000 on the crop Another, Mr. D. I. Simmons, is is reported to have estiimated the {loss in the village of Colborne at $150,000. The manager of the biggest bank in Trenton told your correspondent he thought the average losses to the buyers were | between $2,000 and $35,000, all cast of Toronto, and yet anothe estimate was that between {village of Brightcn and 'the t | of Tren ( 'been sustained. Yet it wa a loss of $125, he fara he Lr were caught. They. paid. (or the crop before the trouble began Long before: the 'apple season came on.-last year, reports were sent out foretelling a 73 per cent. crop... The Inglish brokerage houses at Livérpool hurried funds to their Canadian agents and told! them to buy. Smart Americans across the lake heard the rumor, and they bought--long before the orchards were ripe. As was na tural, prices soared. Even con- servative Canadian experts 'who would otherwise have deferred buying were forced into it. Then the market dropped. The crop came and was almost five times normal size, and the quality was poor. The market was overload- ed with bad. apples bought at a fancy price, and on top of it all the |. disturbance in the money market caused American buyers to cancel orders, aud had the usual effect upon the consuming world. The result was loss to the Canadian and English shippers and a superabun- dance of apples.in ** No. 3" and ** No. 2" ratings. This year the trees show signs of a large crop of carly or fall apples and a fair crop of winter fruit. Conditions vary in different districts. The blossoms were pro- fuse and the w=ather since has been good. There has been little or no insect pest, but the fruit men, probably under the smart of last year's happcnings, say it is too early to say what may happen. Trees that bore very heavily last year are not expected to yield largely this season, al- though the difference, it is said, will be smaller in cases where trees have been well fertilized. trimmed and sprayed. Whatever the quantity, the quality promises to be much higher. I'he fruit marks act aims to pro- tect Canada's repution as an apple producer by prever ting fraudulent packing. aid by requiring shippers to classi v their barrels in three grades and maintain these grades. Most of the men interviewed ex- pressed an opinion favorable to the law itself. but objecting to the details of .its administration. Others thought that apple inspec- tion should be done away with, and that the penalty on the ship- per would be damage done to his reputation when a foreign purchas- er opened a barrel marked with the shipper's name and found it to have been falsely graded.
