The tree fruit industry had its commercial begriming in 1892 when Lord Ahhrdeeu•.planted 200 acres of orchard .on each of his ranches -- the bulsaehan at Kelowna and the Coldstream at. Vernon. Subsequent- ly other ranchers -planted large orchards, while some divided their holdings into ten- or twenty -acre. lots and started irrigation. Land values increased froth one dollar an acre In 1898 to about $1,00() in 1908. In 1903 the lirst:xarrload of fruit \vas exported to Great Ilt-itulu'from Kelowna. • Production and planting increased rapidly and by 1911 the annual production was almost a million boxes. As so often hap- pens, many orchards had flocs planted by those ,with little or no `experience of fruit growing, and this resulted in the production of a great variety of apples for some of wliiih there was a limited market. During the war years 1914-18, few new trees were planted and after hue war many trees of undesirable varieties were removed. Since then varieties better 'suited to the grow- ing conditions and market require- ments have been planted. Production of apples in the Okanagan Valley had increased to -1,557,000 boxes thy..1939. and in the year 1910 au all-tinitv.-..high of 0,74N,500 boxes was reached.
