Es ist zu früh, um den Schaden zu Mooren und Crop aber frühe Berichte aipipraise anzugeben, dass es relativ leicht zu Ibe.

Es war natürlich Schäden an Gebäuden und Stromausfälle in screenhouses und Verarbeitungsanlagen, aber Verluste waren auf jeden Fall weniger, als der Hurrikan

. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. The cranberry harvest came to an abrupt halt Monday, September 12, as Hurricane Donna swept by southeastern Massachusetts. It is too soon to aipipraise the damage to bogs and crop but early reports indicate it to ibe relatively light. A few ibogs were inundated with salt water, a numTber of flumes were damaged, and picking boxes were scattered over the landscape. There was of course damage to buildings and power failures in screenhouses and processing plants, but losses were definitely less than those experienced from the hurricanes of 1938, 1944, and 1954. This was due to the ample warnings given the entire area but more significant was the slight change in the direction of hurri- cane Donna as it neared the Cape area. For this we are extremely grateful. Certainly, our industry would ibe sorely taxed to weather another major IdIow either of the man-made variety or one due to the elements. The follofwing "Flash Card" was prepared and mailed to growers within 24 hours following the hurricane, thanks to the good work of the county agents' offices. "PRESENT SITUATION: A few bogs were flooded with salt water during the hurricane. Many bogs were subjected to wind-driven salt sipray. The following ideas and suggestions are the collective thinking of the personnel at the Cranberry lExperiment Station, based on the experience gained from hurricanes in 1938, 1944, and 1954: 1. Very little damage is expect- ed to bogs submerged less than 36 to 48 hours if they were not pick- ed. 2. It would be well to keep off bogs flooded by salt water and those subjected to salt spray for approximately a week. 3. We expect very little damage to the berries that experienced the above conditions. 4. A good rain before picking would be a tremendous help to the bogs. The Cranberry Experiment Sta- tion is prepared to check bog water supplies for salt content." The rains that accompanied the hurricane were not suff
