'' Cove's frutt association, through Its
secretary, Karl J. Stackland. loudly
yraises the Northwestern Fruit ex
change. In a letter to the Observer
which says:
, "On October 7th last, the Cove
Fruit association shipped a car of
apples, containing 640 boxes, consign
ed to the Northwestern Fruit Ex
change at Saskatoon, Sask., where it
arrived In a badly damaged condition,
caused by the soot and fumes from
the ! heaters that the railroad peo
ple had placed In the car to protect
it from freezing. Consequently the car
was refused by the buyer and left on
the bands of the Canadian Pacific,
who bold it at Winnipeg for the ac
count of transportation. Since that
time the Northwestern Fruit Exchange
diaugc has been fighting the- railroad
company for redress and finally euc
eeeded in collecting the full Invoice
price for the fruit and remitted the
same to us on the 3rd of June, without
any charges for pushing this damage
claim and effytlng this collection.
"Tae whole history of the transac
tiou makes a commendable showing
for the exchange and we congratulate
oursoives In having; the opportunity of
such a connection.'' .

prived of their use. The cost of Installation Is so small,
and the benefits so irarked, that you will wonder why you
never Insisted on them before.
