. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. Cranberry Growers to Vote on Marketing Order Cranberry growers in 10 states will vote May 1-12 on whether to continue their federal marketing order program, the Depart- ment of Agriculture (USDA) an- nounced. Officials of USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) said the program requires a grower referen- dum every four years. Growers will be eligible to vote if they produced cranberries during the 1974 season in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Wiscon- sin, Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon, Washington, or Long Island, New York. The federal marketing agreement and order for cranberries was initi- ated by growers, processors, and handlers to provide authority for regulating the volume of cranberries marketed each season. However, no such regulations have been issued since 1971. Ballots and voting instructions will be mailed before May 1 to all cranberry growers, except those affiliated with cooperative market- ing associations that vote for their members. Results will be an- nounced after the referendum. AMS officials said any eligible grower who fails to receive a ballot may obtain one from any of the following persons: George B.
