CRANBERRY CROP
MEDIUM; PRICE HIGH

Wisconsin's annual cranberry har-
vest is on! The crop is of medium
quality and prices promise to be high.
Last years crop was bumper one and
cranberries which had formerly sold
for So a barrel were marketed for S12.
During harvest, a cranberry marsh
in the busiest place imaginable, Pick
ers are usually Indians of foreigners.
In wood county the Poles are always
on hand for the harvest In Monroe,
Juneau and Jackson counties the VIM
nebago Indians have been dependable
harvest help. The days of hand pick
ing are past. Nearly all the berries
are now raked. Raking is not the back
breaking work that picking is, and
rakers are more easily hired than pick
ers were. In either case, a small por-
ton of the crop is always overlooked.
The generous owners OF the marsh
give these berries to his poorer neigh
bors for the picking.
