After dinner we drove all over the property. The four Cutts brothers own 7,000 acres of land. Besides their cranberries they har- vest 100 acres of blueberries . . the biggest blueberries I ever saw. I carried away a whole crate, the gift of the family. From here we drove to the Bill Haines bog. This bog is 700 acres ar"! they had harvested 19,000 bar- rels in 1953. About .30 barrels to the acre. Red root was one of the bad pests,of New Jersey. On to Isaac Han-isons 100 acre property and finally back to Bordentown where we learned that we were to be overnight guests of Enoch Bills and his sister, Mrs. Henry Crawford. Our visit at this home was one of the high lights of our three days in New Jersey.

It was beautiful properly. More like a well kept park. Mrs. Crawford tells mo that her brother drives out to his bog ev
