Crop Estimate The official crop estimate re- leased by the New England Crop Reporting Service indicates Massa- chusetts with a prospective crop of 870,000 barrels, 6 percent more than last year. Size is good, quality may be a Uttle on the weak side and the extremely hot, humid weather in late August and early September has caused some berries to cook. However, there was no damage from frost last spring and this estimate may be on the low side. There is still an outside chance of coming up with our second largest crop. For the other areas. New Jersey is estimated at 215,000 barrels up 10 percent from last year; Wis- consin 837,000 barrels, up 4 per- cent; Washington 143,000 barrels, down 7 percent and Oregon 100,000 barrels, down 4 percent from last year's record crop.
