Title
Smith Orchard Near Okanogan , ca. 1909
Photographer
Matsura , Frank , 1873-1913 .
Description
One of the oldest orchards around Okanogan--the Smith orchard--produced high quality fruit at high quantity , something for which every orchardist hoped . Matsura took a picture of a man standing along a row of blooming apples trees . He also used pictures of the Smith Orchards in 1910 , for a series of promotional shots taken to show the outlying areas of Okanogan proof that the area's orchards were not devastated by recent frost and that, due to the particular nature of the climate , had peach trees blossoming where every other town in Eastern Washington did not.
