FRUIT INDUSTRY

Advances in Machinery The opinion that England had made, great advances in its manufacture of J machinery for use in the fruit industry was expressed by Mr. C. Ivory, ofj the Nelson firm of Ivory Bros., who returned from a business trip to England: and the United States by the Monowai yesterday: Mr. Ivory spent four months in the Old Country and six weeks in America; he was greatly impressed with the new implements and machinery that were being produced in England, which, until comparatively recently, had been behind America in the manufacture of fruit farming implements. One of the most notable of the advances made was In connection with spraying apparatus. Mr. Ivory said he had purchased a good deal of machinery in England, and when he visited America he found nothing there that was an improvement on the English product.
