. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. MRS. LOIS DAY JOINS HEADQUARTERS STAFF OF NCA. New assistant to Miss Ellen Stillman in Advertising and Publicity A new member of NCA head- quarters staff, Hanson, Massachu- setts, is Mrs. Lois Day, who is assistant to Miss Ellen Stillman, director of advertising- and public- ity. Mrs. Day has assumed direct responsibility for the NCA publi- cation, "Cranberry Cooperative News". Mrs. Day came to the position with a valuable background. A graduate of Mount Holyoke Col- lege, Massachusetts, where she ma- jored in journalism, her career began with Farm Credit Adminis- tration headquarters at Spring- field, Massachusetts. After six years in the information and pub- licity division of that organization she left to become assistant to the farm program director of WNBC at New York, key station of the National Broadcasting Company. During the latter part of last year she had full responsibility for that station's farm program broadcast- ing. A SCIENTIFIC PAPER ON "CRANBERRY DISEASE" You work and swear and sweat, and why? Just to make those vines produce. You worry and fret, and sometimes cry. Then give up and say, "What's the use," But the next day you're back at the stand. Planning to build an acre or two. You're trying to figure just when you can sand And how you can do all you should do. When your vines emerge from the winter flow You know your troubles have started; And before the end of the year you'll know Raising cranberries is for the stout-hearted. It's either frost, or bugs, or rain. It's too dry, too wet, too cold or hot. Sometimes you know you're going insane. But, give up? I guess not. This year you'll have the best crop ever— A hundred barrels to the acre or more; That is, if you get a break in the weather And if you work harder than ever before. To watch for frost, you'll sit up all night And get frozen right through to the bone. And that can go on night after night
