Biography

Copy of a biography of William Ebenezer Shoobridge published in serial form in the Examiner under the heading "Tasmanian Industries". It deals especially with his work in irrigating the hopfields on the Valleyfield and Bushy Park estates and later the orchards, the installation in 1908 of a hydro-electric plant for lighting and small electric appliances on the estate driven originally by an iron water wheel but later by a turbine, and his interest in the development of Hydro Electric Power in Tasmania and the first Hydro Electric Power station at Waddamana and the proposal for a Hydro-Electric Commission for Tasmania. It also refers to William Ebenezer Shoobridge's work in the development of orchard irrigation, pruning of fruit trees, export of apples and the Saaz drying process for hops and its use for drying or curing of lemons and other fruit (part 5, pages 10-11 missing).
