Dr. Karl Deubert attended a leeting of Environmental Toxlo- )gy and Chemistry in St. Louis â cm Nov. 10-13. Karl presented a aper on some of his research. Oregon Ocean Spray is well on its way to scorning a biUion dollar business. That was the opinion expressed by rower Dave Brooks at a dinner meeting ' the Bandon Chamber of Commerce cently. Brooks said the cooperative's gross Jes increased from $95 million in 1975 >541 million 10 years later. He told chamber members that Ocean nray is working on 22 new products, including marketing of a guava drink and of two new drinks, Crantastic and Cranorange, sold in the chilled foods section in supermarkets. Cranberry production in the Bandon area in 1986 showed a 16 percent increase over the prior year's harvest. Growers brought in 94,013 barrels in '86, compared to 78,943 in '84. Grower Barry Winters told the Bandon Western World that the increased harvest was due primarily to the fact that 10 percent more acres were picked. Generally, he said, the winter, with Uttle rain, led to a poor production year. Washington AZMI Y. SHAWA This writer is taking a six month professional leave (through June 30, 1986) at lincohi College, New Zealand. During my leave, 111 be conducting research work on post harvest physiology and storage of blueberries. This will be a continuation of one of my present projects and will be adapted to cranberry culture in improving berry keeping quality and extending shelf life during storage. During my absence, our secretary, Edith Shire, will carry on her secretarial duties and coordinate and direct inquiries from growers to Dr. Carl Shanks or Dr. Pete Bristow for entomological or pathological recommendations. She may search for answers published in the Cranberry Vine or in other publications
