From The Canadian Century. The largest deputation of (farm- ers that ever waited on any Cuna- dian Government was that Oil the fruit growers of Western Onrtario, who went to Ottawa on February 10th to protest against the Reci- procity Agreement. The case they presented to the Government was a strong one. They showed that if the Reciprocity Agreement was endorsed by the Canadian Parliaâ€" ment and the United States Con- gress it would reduce the value of every orchard in Ontario and rnir. thousands of small fruit farmer: who had paid high prices for their little farms and spent time and money in planting trees. They showed that many large (fiarms had been subdivided for fruit-growing purposes, and that new subdivi- sions were constantly being made. They said that a farm of «one hunâ€" dred acres which formerly sup- ported only one family, being cut into ten small .fnui“: \farms, support- ed ten .families. Among other me~ Lmorials presented by this deputa- {tion was the (following: “We the undersigned. the presi- dent and executive com. of the Old [Country Association, composed env _ ___.J L_A,3l£n+1nn l over the province. According to the Dominion cen- sus of 1901 therewere in: the Whole of Canada 15,053,875 apple trees, 1,301,775 peach trees, 962,101 pear trees, 2,415,695 plum trees, 1,288,368 cherry trees and 179,425 other {fruit trees : a total of over twenty-one million .fruit trees, besides 2,783,596 grape vines and large acreages of small Iruits. Since 1901 there has been a very great in- crease in the number of trees, Brit":- ish Columbia farmers alone having planted about 4,500,000 trees, withâ€"' in. the ten years. Mr. Blurrel'l es-i timates that there cannot be less than thirty million :fruit trees in Canada now, «and :he thinks that $150,000,000, is a low valuation to place on the orchards of Canada today. The CANADIAN CENTURY some weeks ago published an art- icle on the value of a. tree. 1:"; was pointed out «that a German rail- way company had been forced to pay six hundred dollars .for one. cherry tree which it destroyed. and the principle upon which the ccur‘ dacided the value of a \fruit trer was explained. Mr. Burrell’s esti- mate «only allows \five dollars as. an average value of la Canadian fruit tree when he values the orchards. of the Dominion at $150,000,000. We believe that the real value is very much greater. “We the undersigned. the presi- dent and executive com. of the Old Country Association, composed en~ tirely of men born and bred! in the British Isles. and the great major- ity of Whom are engaged in the :fruit industry, respeo‘afully and earnestly beg to draw the attenâ€" tion lOof the Dominion Governmenr: to the peculiar hardship which will be imposed upon us should this proposed tarifrr legislation come into effect. “We have been induced to leave Great Britain and ltO come to this peninsula, and to invest our capi- tal in the purchase, planting and general improvement of limit Lands in a large measure owing to the? very wide distribution ’Olf official pamphlets and other literature em- anating from Canada, and distrib- uted throughout the British Isles, positively stating that ‘the Onta- against foreign-grown» fruit and vegetables and thus enjoys that market without serious competi- tion from outside sources. ’ “The amount of customs tariffs on the various rfruits is specifically ;stated in these pamphlets and lit- erature : and in order that this particular advantage 6.0 the Cana- dian grower may be clearly under- stood by the Bridsher this tariff ‘scale is not only set forth in Car.- adian money but is also set {£0th {in the coinage of Great Britain. Under the belief that; those condiâ€" Itions would be stable we have no lonl'y sunk our own capital, but have been instrumental in bringing many of our countrymen here to invest in this growing indius‘ry. :whixch, owing to the sueadly rise or. grecent years in the values of land. lnow requires a. large amount or capital to purchase and equip eve-l. ‘the small .farms the majoriy of u: lown and ’00- provide for the mainâ€" ztenance of our families during th: years it takes {.0 bring an 'O'I‘Ch‘fil'k. into bearing.” i Four days after these Oni'tari-ol fruit afarmers presented unzir cast ‘to the Government Mr. Martin. Baurrelll, member of Parliament flox Yale-C-azriboo, gave "the House of ‘Commio-ns a remarkably clear and lcomprehensive statement- (iii the‘ 1positiorn of the fruit-growers in a; ‘the provinces of Canada, giving special attention, of course, to hr. own province 01f British Columbia, lwhich has made won-d'errfvul pro-gâ€" ;ress in the planting of orchard; during the last “tenyeta-rs. r. Baurrel‘l has devoted twenty-right years Off his life to the pracriczf work of [fruit-growing. No man in Canada has a better knowledge 1 of the question. In 1901 there were 567,000 frui: trees in British CoLumbia, accurd- ing to the Dominion census. Now there are estimawd to be .five mi:- lion .fruit trees in "ha-t province, and the area devoted. no fruit is n;- pidly increasing. 1 The grain grower of the prairi- gets his big afarm at low cosr sometimes as a .free grant; "h land is ready for cultivation ° ihe Government subsidizes a- railway to take the grain to market. The British Columbia.- iruit [fa-rm must. first be cleared of emormous trues; the people of the East and of the prairie provinces can scarcely reval- ize the immense size of British Co- lumbia timtber. After [the land has been cleared at great expense and fruit trees plamed the farmer must wait .for years for his trees 10 grow and bear .fruit. In manv parts of the province he m'usr. way his share of the cost of constructing irrigation works. In the Ghana- gan Valley alone the amount .01 $1,500,000 has been expended al- [ready in irrigation works for orch- iard purposes and vast outlays of :the same kind are going on all Miss Flora McNaughton is laid up with :an attack of 1a grippe.

Now what would be said if the Government suddenly took awav the tarifif protection of a group of manudactur-ing industries m which $150,000,000 of capital was in- vested?

Has not the small nfarmer a vested right in. the rfrluilt tree that has cost him money. labour, time and anxiety?

However, it is not our intention to take away [from O ven Sound any mi the glory they earned, and we must give them credit for bringing down the very best team available (up in that part of the country. Chesley beat Hanover in Ham;- ver Wednesday night, 10 to 7. Whether this is a Northern League fixture or mot, we don‘t know, as the President, Mr. G. L. Lien, of Mt. Forest, intimated over the phone a couple Oaf days ago hat Chesl-ey was to be award- ed the game of January 30th last. in Hanover, which they protested on account of a dispute 031 one minute in the playing time. As Hanover, according to the state- ment of the President, did not have their money down in time. Chesley was to be given the. de- cision, th-cxwgh up to that time, it had not been awarded. But pos- sible he changed his mind, and ordered! the game reâ€"piayed. Any man, who, as President of a League, takes :from January 30th 110 February ‘26th to make up his mind whether or not to call the Executive together to dCCid‘e a hockey dispute, must be either entireiy incompetent for the posi- tion, or else is not aware of the fact that you can‘t play hackey here in May. In the face of this, we don’t know just where Durham stands in this little grime, or who they wild play next. but wi‘.1 try and find! out. that is. i. we can rouse the high-u- ‘(uf‘iiners of this Bush League drom their comatose condition. nesday.
