FRUIT GROWERS CONFERENCE
SPOKANE, DEC. 10th TO 18Th
Federal Market Bureau Will Propose
Changing Grades of NOrthwes-
tern Boxed Apples

Interest in the fruit growers confer
ence to be held in Spokane December
1913 is steadily increasing. The an
nouncement that the federal burea of
markets will submit proposed new
grades for all boxed apples marketed
in the country has raised discussion
in every fruit growing district. This
feature of itself will draw hundreds
of fruit men to the conference. No
problem of the fruit industry is so
eagerly seized upon and so thoroughly
thrashed out at every opportunity as
that of grades. S. S. clearinghouse,
representing the bureau of markets,
who has been covering the northwest
and ascertaining the views of apple
growers, wishes it understood that the
bureau has not adopted any grade sys-
tenn. The bureau is endeavoring to
get the sentiment of the growers and
has suggested grades in order that
something definite might be used as
basis. The bureau will be guided
by the sentiment of growers as it shall
be crystalized at the coming confer
ence.

INTAKE OF CITYWATFR SYSTEM
UNDERGOING RECONSTRUCTION
City Joined Icicle Canal Company
Building Dam to Raise the Water
Level

City Clerk Gowing told a reporter
of the Echo one day this week that
the intake of the city water plant was
being repaired by the building of a
dam at the intake in order to raise
the water level and make sure of a
continuous supply during the winter
months, when the river is at its lowest
stage. The work is being done under
the supervision of Water Commits
sioner Guest, who says the work being
done is of temporary nature, and
may last few years if something un-
fcrseen does not occur, but that even
tually concrete dam will have to be
put in to insure permanency. The
Icicle Canal Co., which also takes
water from the Icicle river, is inter-
ested in raising the water level to
protect its water supply and is shar-
ing the expense of the improvement
now under way with the city.
