  • Historic Steamwheeler Wharves & Landings
    Historic Steamwheeler Wharves & Landings: Points about Westside Road The trail between Fintry and Nahun was the last remnant of the Hudson Bay Trail. It was used to travel between the two communities after the Shorts Point Post Office was closed.A rough and narrow wagon road was used to join Westbank to Nahun around 1908. Eight years later, the road to Ewing’s Landing was completed using horse teams, which made Vernon accessible without crossing the lake by ferry. During the depression, scores of able- bodied men from the relief camp in Wilson Landing worked to improve the narrow and generally unsafe portion of Westside Road from their camp to where you will now find Traders Cove. Traders Cove There was a sternwheeler landing at Bear Creek, just south of where Traders Cove lies today. It was origi- nally called Bear River in 1883 by David Douglas (of Douglas Fir fame) and was changed to Lambly Creek in 1922. Despite the name changes, it is referred to as Bear Creek today. When the SS Sicamous discon- tinued its services in 1935, mail and freight was delivered by truck from Vernon. There are references to Traders Trail Estates and Newby’s Cove near the current log dump at Bear Creek. Wilson Landing So named for Boer War veteran Harold Fitz-Harding Wilson who settled in the area in 1900. In the 1930s it was home to a relief camp sponsored by the Anglican Church. It housed scores of burly men who improved the hazardous portions of Westside Road between here and Newby’s Cove.

  • Addition to the Distributional List of the Birds of British Columbia
    Jan., 1942 33 ADDITIONS TO THE DISTRIBUTIONAL LIST OF THE BIRDS OF BRITISH COLUMBIA By ALLAN BROOKS It has been my intention for some time past to bring out a supplement to “A Dis- tributional List of the Birds of British Columbia” by Brooks and Swarth (Pacific Coast Avifauna No. 17, 1925). There have been many additions to this list since its publica- tion; ranges of specieshave been extended, subspecific concepts have changed, and at least one subspecies,Pooecetes gramineus afinis, should probably be dropped from the British Columbia list. Also, it may be advisable to include the large area in the northeastern corner of the Province lying to the east of the barrier of the Rocky Mountain chain. This would be a large undertaking and it may possibly be best to get out an entirely new list using the order of the latest A.O.U. Check-list. In our original list published in 1925 the northeastern area lying to the east of the Rockies was left out with a definite purpose. It was not then politically administered by the British Columbian government, it lay beyond a great natural boundary, and it was realized that when this region was properly worked it would include nearly every speciesof bird found in the province of Alberta. The following brief list may be regarded as an interim supplement against the time when an adequate list may be compiled. It includes absolute additions only. Some forms which have been described since the publication of the original list are not included, as the writer feels that although they have been declared valid by the committee of the A.O.U.

  • 454 AGRICULTURE Period; (2) Delivery by Ditch Or Flume, With
    454 AGRICULTURE period; (2) delivery by ditch or flume, with distribution over the ground by furrows, used in general for fruit and vegetable crops; and (3) irrigation by flooding, common on hay meadows in stock-raising areas. Most of the irrigation is by gravity supply, but pumping from lakes and rivers is also practised. Pumping is costly and only warrantable in favoured areas for the growth of high-priced specialty crops. Estimates of irrigable and irrigated land are given in Table 46. About 85,000 acres are under water licence and capable of being irrigated; nearly 100,000 acres are irrigated by individual effort, the majority being hay and grain for stock- ranches and for field crops. In addition about 200,000 acres more could be brought under irrigation, but at a cost greater than that of existing works. 46.—Major Irrigation Projects in British Columbia, 1948 Irri­ Irri­ Project Water Supply gable gated Locality Area Area acres acres Provincial Irrigation System— Southern Okanagan Lands Project Okanagan River 5,000 4,200 Okanagan Valley Municipal Irrigation Systems- Penticton Municipality Penticton and Ellis Creeks 2,250 2,220 Okanagan Valley Summerland Municipality Trout and Eneas Creeks , 3,800 3,420 Irrigation Districts— Balfour. v Laird Creek 240 150 Kootenay Valley Barriere Barriere River 225 129 North Thompson - Valley B.C.
