I CAPE CLUBS CLOSE SEASON Much Interest At Final Upper Club Meeting The final meeting for the sea- son of the Upper Cape Cod Cran- berry club was held at Marstons Mills Thursday evening-, April 21, with Bertram Ryder, presiding. A good attendance and keen interest was shown in the meeting- by mem- bers in the questions they asked various speakers. Dr. Henry J. Franklin explained the new 1938 pest control charts and spoke of pyrethrum dusts and at some length upon the value of Roenone dusts in the control of some insects, particularly fruit worm. Russell Makepeace explained further the new cooperative buying program and President Ryder was chosen as the representative of that group for the buying organi- zation. Leslie Cross, who is to manage the pool, explained some of the details. The exhibition of bog apparatus by the Hayden Cranberry Separa- tor company was held outside the hall, and several of the dust ma- chines and the new kerosene spray machine were shown in operation, and during the meeting, Mr. St. Jacques explained some of these. Bertram Tomlinson, Barnstable County Agent, was the final speaker, and he urged the value of cooperative buying, and declared that marketing for the farmer, really begins with production which includes the buying of sup- plies. He said that at least two field meetings will be held during the coming summer. He urged growers to enlist in the three- year false blossom campaign and to enroll in the conservation pro- gram. The growers expressed their in- terest in the annual cranberry bog tour this summer. The meeting ends a highly suc- cessful winter series with interest constantly increasing. 92 At Final Meeeing of Lower Club The final meeting for the year of the Lower Cape Cod Cranberry club was held at Orleans Tui evening April 12 with an attend- ance of 92 members and guests, marking the end of a season which has brought out extremely good crowds.
