Tte pickers are busy in tbe cranberry fiel la acroaa the bay. About 300 piokeri ar now employed and tha season ia from four to sit weeks. On "field" contains shoot 60 aorea. The others are much mailer. Tbe yield varies according to weather condition, as other crops, but this year's output Is estimated at 1500 birrel which will bring about, S7 per barrel, It takes about throe e4r after I tart- in j Id bring a cranberry marsh into bear' In;, a less timd thatl most fruit farma re quire, yet the cranberry business is by far tba most profitable and there ia lose risk of crop failures. One young man, with very Uttle means, secured a piece of In'id tour years ago, put it in or an be r ries, worked for wages to make hla ex peusea and now ia in good oircumstan cea. iie eold over a thousand dollars Worth of oran berries last year. Mnch ia hoard concerning the flooding of cran berry marshes. This is not done to aid the growth of tbe plants or the develop ment of the berries, as one mtght sup pose, but to atop the operations of a cer t'lirf fly which stings and injures tbs plant. Spraying accomplishes the earns re'snlt and docs not hurt the berry as flooding is apt to do,'and spraying is be log generally adopted. There are aeveral varieties of cranber ries, une Kinu is a large, ricblv-oolored fine-looking berry, three limes aa large as some ot the others, but it does not keep as long ai the smaller varieties. "Astoria throwa away good money every day," remarked a speaker at tbe chsrnber of commerce meeting Mondsy night.

Tk.A ipeaker assorted that nearly all the farm product of the lower Columbia go of Portland while Attoria ia aupplied from Mao Franciaoo and Portland. Tin farmers who sell in Portland" of courai boy there. One gentleman, who owni a farm, sii'J Astoria bad no cash market for farm products. The producer baa to "trade it oat" or take hia stuff back borne. He inaiated that there are no ruling prices and that tbe selling fanner ia treated ac cording to hia apparent necessities. An other called attention to tbe fact that the carrying cost ot farm atufla ia lesa than half that between Seaaide and Jla toria. Several houses handling farm prod Beta were visited by an Aatorian reporter yesterday to get the merchants' side of (be matter. It waa generally admitted that many farmera do their trading in Portland, but it waa denied that there is no cash- market in Astoria. "We have some eymptome of good sense," aald one dealer, "and why ahould we refuae to buy f.rm stuHb we need offered at our very door where wecao examine it? We do buy farm products from local pro ducers and we pay cash for it. We can't always pay tbe price tbe farmer aska and that which be offers ia not alwaya mar ketable." ''Some larmera," aaid another "think they oan do better in Portland in buying and in selling, and while we know they are mistaken it is difficult to reach them and to convince them. Others like the trip, even if tbey lose by It. Then there ia another olass that never like to spend cash where tbey run bills. These, do their surrjmer Milltf, when they Lave something to aell and some cash, in Portland" (hd want Astoria merchants to carry them during the winter months." Since such drains are really important and can be stopped by a little determined action, it baa been auggeated that if tbe merchants and business men attend more generally the chamber of commerce meet Inge eurh question can be acted on in telligently and with good result.
