MODERN COL) STORAGE AND FAST TRANSPORTATION,

(Continued from page 1)

shows that there has been absolutely no intelligent effort made to provide refrigeiation adopted te the special reeds of the several varieties of fruits, but there has been a series of attempts made to carry apples and tender fruits In compartments designed foi meats and butter, and suitable only for taat purpose,

So complete and disastrous has bcei the failure of the Government’s sysiem that ata meeting of the Fruit Growers’ Association ot Ontario that enurely representative and non political body felt cailed upon to de- clare by resoluticn, unanimously ad- opted, that—

‘The accommodaticn on Atlantic steamships has hitherto Deen unsuit-— able to the carriage o1 our fruits, even such hard truits as apples being“ ruined in transit and artiving in the British market in an uncaleable condition, al- though in periectly sound condition when packed and shipped.” And that —“The lack of ventilation and the great heat in the holds uf the vessels,

added to the heat arising from the fruit | has ever fulfilled when in power.

itself contributes to ‘his. evil, which has resulted in immense loss to our fruit growers in every Province in the Dominion.”

As lately as May 8th, 1900, the Minister of Agriculture made this state- ment in House of Commons.

“The system established in the steamships which have been sailing be- tween Canada and Great Britain, for the last three years or,more, is as good as any cold storage equipment in the world.”

This astonishing statement was made in the face of direct evidence to the contrary ‘hen in his possession— evidence contained in the statements and reports of the officials of his own department ; in the face, too, of state- ments made by the Fruit Growers’ As sociation and numbers of independent and intelligent farmers. That no in- justice is here doneto the Governmer t or the Minister the following will show: In the course of the statement made to the Committee on Agriculture, Prof. Robertson made the following calcu- lation regarding the shipment of apples made from Ontario and Quebec: 2,795 sold as slacks; 2,446 barrels sold as slightly wet; 1997 barrels sold as wet; 1,252 barrels sold as wet and slack.

‘The loss on the slacks as compar- ed with apples landed in good condi- tion, averaged two shillings and seven pence per barrel. The loss on the slightly wet averaged three shillings and eight pence. The loss on the wets averaged seven shillings and three pence. The loss on the wets and slacks avraged nine shillings asd eleven pence. The wets and slacks dd not even pay pay the cost of freight. Thus out of one shipment of 14.410 barrels not less than 8,488, or fuly 56 per cent. were more or less destroy- ed by the Minister’s “‘perfect system.” entailing a total loss of $10,059,58, The results on this and other ship: ments were so discouraging that the developmert of an export trade in fruit has been complete.y checked.

Mr. A. W Grindley special agent o! the Department of Agriculture in Great Britain, on the same day upon which Prof. Robertson wade the foregoing statement, told the Committee thai ‘the California Newton Pippin was re- tailed on the London market at one dollar per dozen.” This was for the Christmas fruit trade. Ia answer to a question, Mr. Grindley stated that ‘lots of apples came from ‘Tasmania.

In the course of his statement to the comittee, Mr. Grindley tcld of hav» ing seen apples which had been brougat to England by the Canadian cold storage system which within twenty-four hours had settled down six inches in the barrei and among which in a week “it would have been impossible to find a single sound apple.”

Let it be remembered that the fruit of California and Tasmania are forwarded under far more disadvan- tageous conditions as to distance and climate than the Canadian fruits have to contend with. The great bulk of the Tasmanian fruitis shipped by coasting steamers first to Meibourne and then transferred to ships sailing for London. The Victorian fruit has to make a rail journey of hundreds cf

miles, in a particularly trying climate, from Castlemaine and Echuca. ‘Then these truits have to face an ocean voyage of seventeen thousand miles,

crossing the equator and _ passing through the Red Sea, the hottest sea voyeg: in the world. Under the

system of cold storage in use on the Australian steamers this fruit is landed on the British markets in prime con- dition, with scarcely a percentage of loss, despite these peculiarly irying conditions ; while Can dian fruit grown within three thousand miles of the market and transported entirely within the north temperate_zone, rots on the way.

he Conservaiives, if placed power, will endeavor to establish such a system of cold storage and trausvor- tation as will ensure the placing of the surplus of all of the more perishable products of our farms, orchards .and dairies upon the Biitish markets, speedily and in prime condition ; thus securing for Canada all the advaniages in prices and pi.stige which the su- periority of her fruitsaid t er produce ought to ensure, ‘he Liveral-Co I | servative party can point with pride, | which ts justified by past history to the, fact that itis a Larty of pledge-keepers. | What it has promised in Oppusitioa it | it! does not hesitate now to announce | its policy for the building Canada’s agricultural expuit trade, fully and in such detail that none shaii ; be able to misunderstand or miscon- | strue it. In the face of the keen com-| petition of Australia, New Zealand, | and Tasmania, of South America and} the United States, ic is self evi-! dent that Canadian farmers can only hope to win and keep the British and European markets for their. produce by placing the produce before the con- | sumers in prime condition and at the { least possible’expense. It is not possible that this can be achieved by unaided private enterpris: <n1 the Canadian Government must therefore take the initiative and establish a complete system under Government contro] and supervision,

No system of National cold storage and transportation can be commercial- ly succcessful which does noi provide for the establishing at suitabie and convenient places cf depots properly equipped with modern refrigeration appliances and larger depots or ware- houses simiiarly equipped at centres of population and seaports, whee perishable products can be stored un- til sold on the home market or ship ped abroad. I: must also provide tur ihe positively safe trans-shipment ot produce from the small depots, where it is first collected, to the larger depots and warehouses for safe loading upon

up ot.

al

perfectly equipped vessels; for speedy cariage to the market to

which is destined; for the mainten- ance of proper conditions as to tem- perature and ventilation upon the ves sels and handiing of the produce when received abroad and for marketing it it in such ways and at such times as wil! ensure the greatest returns to the owners. To be truly national the sys- tem must embrace encouragement of the export of perishable products fron. our Pacific coast to the asiatic coun. tries and Australasia and from th: Maritime Province to the West Indic. and to central and South America. | should also assist our fisherman by er. ab ing them to reach more distant mar-| keis and by faciliiating the preserva- | tiun of fish and bait. In 1858 Great Britain imported} poultry to the value of more than three millions of doilars. Of this Canada’only supplied a very small part. It is no exaggeration to say that be- cause of their inability to market their poultry to the best advantage and to place their surplus upon the British markets at the right time and in the proper condition, Canadian farmers and poultry rai@rs do not realize move than one-half of ihe prices they ought

i

to command. Inthe absence of a cold siorage system firmers, ¢x:ept some of those _living near

great Citic s, must wa't till coid weather before killing their pou:try. With a! system much as the Liberal-Conserva tive party proposes co establish they} could kill at any ume regardless of the weather, depos:t their$dressed pcultry in receiving stations, kno:ing that 1 the hottest weather it would be as saie as in midwinter, and then, when the market is favourable sell to local buy- ers or ship to Great Britain. With an eficient system cf cold storage and fast Atlantic transportation Canadian butter, cheese eggs, poultry, meat fruits and vegetables will all reach the British market in good condition and censequently command much better prices than they have in the past.

The cold storage policy of the Lib- eral-Conservative party is National. Its beneficial effect wili be felt in every province. Not only will it benefit the

fifty nsitlions of dollars, when in com- plete working order.

In establishing a Natioral system no injury will be done to private entirprise, The cold storage warehouse already built can be utilized, and when necessary, improved. The owners will be only too glad to enter into arrangements whereby the volume of their business will be increased and a fair interest secured on the capital invested,

The policy of National cold storage is to be regarded as an_ important and necessary part of the general trade and industrial policy of the Liberal- Conse:vative party. This general policy includes:

(a) the policy cf tariff protection to Canadian manufactures and produc- ers of all kinds, sufficient to secure them against unfair competition in their natural and rightful home market thus ensuring diversified employment at living wages for Canadian labour anc profitable employment for Canad- ian capital.

(b) A fast Atlantic service of steam- ships equipped not only to guarantee the safety and comfort of passengers but the rapid placing of the more per- ishable products of the Dominion upon the markets of Great Britain.

SLOW STARVATION.

The Condition of Those Af- flicted With Indigestion.

Flatulency, Sick Headache, Offensive Breath and Ecuctations, Irritability,

and a Feelingof Weight on the

Stomach are Among the Symptoms.

Dyspepsia, or indigestion, asit is also frequently called, isone of the most serious ailments that afflicts mankind. When the stomach losses its craving for food, and the power to digest it, the person soafflicted is both mentally and physically in a condition of wretchedness. The symptoms of the disorder are mani- fold, ard among them may he noted, a

feeling of weight in the rezion of the

stomach, sick headache, offensive breath, heartburn, a disagreeable taste in the mouth, irritibility of temper, disturbed sleep, etc. The condition is in fact one of slow starvation of the blood, nerves and body, and on the first, symptoms treat- ment through the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills should be sought. Mr. Wil- iam Birt, a well known blacksmith at Pisquid, P. E. L., is one who suffered for years, and relates his experience for the benefit of similar sufferers, Mr. Birt says:—For many yearsI wasa_ victim of indigestion, accompanied by nervousness, palpitation of the heart and other distres- sing symptoms. My appetite was _ir- regular, and what I ate felt like a weight inmy stomach; this was accompanied by a feeling of stupor or sleepiness, and yet I rarely enjoyed anight’s sound sleep. When I would retire a creeping sensa- tion would come over me, with pains and

when I arose in the morning. I would

feel as tired and fatigued as I did: before

I went to bed. Itis needless to say that

I was continually takjng medicine and tried, I think afmost = everything recommended asacure for the trou- ble. Occasionally I got temporary

relief, but the trouble always came back, usually ina still more aggravated form. All this, of course, cost a great deal of money, andas the expenditure seemed useless I was very much discouraged. One day one of my neighbors, who had used Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills wit!; isauch benefit, advised me to try them, and I de- cided to do so, thinking nevertheless, that it would be but

another hopeless ex- periment. To my great gratification,

however. I had only been using the pills a few weeks when I felt decidedly better, and things began to look brighter, I cop- tinued taking the pills for several months with the result that my bealth was as good and my digestion het:er than it had ever been. One of the most flattering results of the treat:asnt was my increase in weight from 125 pounds to 155 pounds, Itis more than a year now since I dis- continued the use of the pills and in that time I have not had the sli¢chtest return of the trovble. We always keep the pills in the house now,and my family used them forother ailments with same gratifying results.”
