Thomas went to his cran berry marsh on the North slough today where he will superintend the picking of his Ti)p of t-ianberrlea. consisting of three acrts. Thla marsh is not very large, but It of the best quality. Jle has taken considerable pains to get the marsh In the beat of condition, and it will yield a gixxl crop of berries, under favorable circumstances. He expects to ship his Ix-rrles to Portland and San Francisco, after selling all be can to the local trade, lie pays 71 cents a bushel for picking th" berries, and expects to gather at least .109 bushels from his three-acre marsh. The price of berries now Is from $3 to I" per bushel In BanFranclsco. It Is surprising that so few people are culti vating cranberries as do on Cooa bay. There Is considerable good cranberry lund In the county and It only waita Ihe proper handling ly men who know the berry. This Industry should be given more attention and be developed to the fullest extent of the valuable marsh land. It la a known fact that under prop er cultivation Ihe Coos bay cranberry Is equal to the finest Cape Cod and Ill cranberry. In aire and very much auperior In point of color and flavor. The Coos bay cranberry la at no disadvantage In any market compared to Eastern berries. J. N. Nay Is foreman over the pickers and thoroughly understands the handling of berries.
