a normal crop is worth from three
million to four million dollars, with
about 5000 acres under cultivation.
Since the spring of 1903. the Uni

Quoting a special investigation on
cranberry culture. An experimental
station has been developed at Gran
moor, just below Grand Rapids. In
1903 the legislature appropriated
$4,000 annually to conduct this in

given the state annually by Congress
for this purpose.
The experiments which have been
made on the state marsh, have proven

to be the average yield"
The following extract is taken from
the Twelfth Census of the United
States, taken in 1900, VOL, 6 page 61O;
Cape Cod growers have estimated the
cost of planting a bog to be $500 to
$3.50 per acre, and a good yield after
bog is in full bearing is so to 200
barrels or $50 to 600 bushels per acre."
The average October price since
1880, for which cranberries have sold is
$6.40 per barrel. Prices in January of
this year were $23 per barrel.
After marsh is in bearing condi-
ton, the labor necessary to care for it
is very small. A fair estimate of the
cost of production is as follows:

Opinions differ as to the extent of in

1T is almost impossible to give an
accurate estimate of the cost of re-
pairs to public buildings, but from per-
sonal inspection of the buildings and
from figures given me by competen
builders I should say that the ap-

the pOstOffice building not to exceed
