At hand picking on the bog: Thomas Gault, Gibb y's grandfather, Alice Crane, Gibby's mother, Clara (Gault) Beaton and his grandmother Mrs. Thomas Gault. Mass. CJybs G Views Of Last Year And Of '59 Both Culture and Marketing Angles Are Discussed Looking back over 1958 and to 1959 and the future could prop- erly be termed the agenda of Jan- uary Massachusetts club meet- ings (13th, Upper Cape; 14th, Lower Cape; 20th, Southeastern and South Shore.) That these were largely attended may at- test to a revival of industry, hope foi- much improved financial re- turns in the near future, and more than a measure of satisfaction in returns that the past year brought. Principal speakers were Am- brose E. Stevens, general man- ager of NCA and its director of adivertising and promotion, H. Drew Flegal and Dr. C. E. , director of Massachusetts Cran- berry Experiment Station. Dr. Cross' statement, that Mass- achusetts crop prospects for 1959 seemed at the moment reason- ably good, and might be expected to be about the Massachusetts' 10-year average of 530,000 bar- rels, that he did not believe the early January winter-kill condi- tions may have been too serious and he hoped the remainder of the winter might be more moderate were reassuring. (The text of his address appears elsewhere in this issue.)

One of the latter was that the 1958 pool could probably not be closed until about December 1, of this year, when the berry was .p;one and the total amount per banel to growers could be deter- mined. This return, it was reas- onable to expect would be com- parable to the 1957 pool figure, he said. NCA, he said, from a financial angle, is stronger than in a num- ber of years.
