Okanagan Valley Fruit Men Say Income, Profit Different By ERWIN FRICKE Canadian Press Staff Writer KELOWNA, BC. (CP) -- Been thinking of a fruit farm in the Okanagan Valley as an ideal way to spend your "golden years?" If you were to talk to some of the fruit. growers around here you might have some second thoughts Not that the 100-mile-long val- ley hasn't plenty to recommend it for settling down. Nestled between two mountain ranges in the south- ern interior of British Columbia, it has what some doctors claim is Canada's most invigorating cli- mate. Summer days are hot and dry, and nights are cool. Rain- fall averages orly 11 inches a year The U-shaped valley, almost de- void of heavy industry, holds sev- eral lakes of which Lake Okan- agan, 65 miles long and three miles wide, is the largest. N. RAL ADVANTAGES lake, 1,130 feet above sea level, Js cold in spring but in September it has a temperature of 71 degrees. 'three degrees warmr than the beaches at Ha- waii. In winter the heat is given off, the steam hanging like a light fog over the lake and warming the adjacent fruit-growing area. Rising 900 feet above the lake are a series of slopes which Okan- agan people call benches. In this white silt, varving from a heavy clay to sand, fruits of every de- scription are grown. The magic wand is water, not from the lakes but from creeks in the mountains, valley walls rising 3,000 feet above the 'lake. Irrigation transformed the Okan- agan from a land 50 years ago of sage brush and bunch grass to 35,- 000 acres of fruitland that has been sold for as high as $2,000 an acre on an established fruit farm BIG PRODUCTION The first freight car of fruit was |comer is determined, however, t0| rect maturity and farmers spend --into units so small that veteran shipped in 1903 and the peak was larly cultivated and irrigated un- winds strip pears and apples from reached in 1946 when 17,000 car- til the trees reach the age of 10 the trees before picking time.
