Page Eight THE EVENING NEWS SAULT STE. MARIE. MICHIGAN SATURDAY. JULY 29., 1939. HEWBERRY Telephone 390 DICKIE DARE By Coulton Waugh Blueberries Growing in Scattered Areas on Luce Plains; Crop is Mediocre Burning Project on Two-Hurled River Produces a Crop within a Year, Experiment Shows; Berries Here Are Two Weeks Late NEWBERRY, July 29.

Luce county's blueberry crop is definitely smaller ihan last year's harvest £nd is scattered in small patches, according to consistent reports from Conservation officers, berry buyers and pickers alike. Buyers, both local and out-ol- town, agree that the volume of berries from Luce county is considerably smaller than last year's Newberry, was selected as a suitable location for an experiment in burning old blueberry bushes. This area, located in the Superior State Forest, formerly was famous for Us heavy crops of blueberries, but in recent years the bushes appeared "worn out." By supervised burning of these bashes, and at the proper time, it was thought the bushes could be revived. The the- I MI6HT EXPLAIN WtM THAT L1OH -TOO en UP FOZWARO TWAT, UOH'6 GRgAT VOW WOULD TO JUMP RATUZR. COLDWATER but it is believed that inadequate rain during the past month is the chief cause.

Earlier in the season, following heavy rains in May and June, berry experts predicted a bumper crop of "blue gold." For this reason, it is thought, hordes of berry pickers swarmed into the berry plains of northern Luce county after July 4. Early this week berry buyer, stationed at the berry plains near the East Branch of the Two Heart river, reported that there were almost as many pickers as there were last year, but there were only about half as many berries. Tents and shelters of every description were set up in the "berry villages," chiefly on the Two Heart plains, to all appearances indicating a bumper crop; but the buyers dampened by stating that the volume wasn't being produced. Berries Paradoxical Strangely enough, in some areas that bore a heavy crop last year, there are no berries at ell this year, according to some reports, while the opposite of this is also true. Some pickers, who happen onto a-dense patch, report to Conservation officers that the berry "'crop is wonderful, while less fortunate roam the plains all day finding only a few quarts of berries, tell the officers that there "are no berries at all" this year." For Shis reason, the officers at Newberry state that good patches are widely scattered, and that there are few large areas of Blueberries.

Prices on blueberries this season compare favorably to prices of last season. Buyers report that prices have" ranged from $1.40 to $1.75 per crate this year. In 1938 the low price per crate of berries was Reasons for the mediocre cro'p this ory of burning, as explained by season are not definitely known, Stephansky, was simply a quick method of pruning the plants. If burned early in the spring, when the ground was wet to protect the roots, the plants would theoretically survive the fire. It was a delicate project, and required strict and complete supervision, lest the flames whip out of control by a sudden wind.

So, early in June Gilbert Stewart of the Michigan Forest Fire Ex- Large Fish Being Cauglit in Soo Area Sunday in Sault Churches Facsimiles $1.40. Burning Project Reports on a berry bush burning project on the Two Heart plains were explained today by Joe Stephansky. assistant supervisor of district six, In June 1938, upon orders from the State Conservation commission, an area of 150 acres, near the east branch of the Two Heart, 25 miles north of periment station at Roscommon. arrived in Newberry with his assistants and equipment. He was also to be aided by Conservation officer Dick Beach and Bernard Mc- Tiver.

But frequent rains made postponement of the project necessary, and it was several weeks before the fire wardens could set their forest fires. However, several fire lines were plowed around the 150- acre a squad of CCC's were brought in. The time was ripe, with the roots of the plants damp and the tops dry. The fires were lit, carefully guarded, anrf extinguished with little excitement. GroM" in Year Observers predicted that no berries would grow in the burned area until 1940, because it was thought it would require a year for the bushes to grow and mature sufficiently before they would be able to bear fruit.

But this prediction proved false, because the area burned over in June. quite covered with a healthy crop of blueberries. The berries in the experiment area are still green, however, and are about two weeks behind the rest of the surrounding crop, Conservation officers report This is believed to be due to the fact that the bushes were burned early last year and were consequently slo-w in developing More experimental burning Is scheduled for this year and future years, according to the Department of Conservation, and complete data is being retained on developments. II a satisfactory method of burning blueberry bushes can be developed, which would give the bushes the benefits of pruning, healthy blueberry crops in the future will be assured, the department believes. in Downtown Hardware Store Paper facsimiles of three large fish are shown in the display window of the Bruhn Hardware shop on Ashmun street.

Largest of the fish is a 31-pound lake trout caught on July 25 by Mrs. Joe Singleton of Newberry, off the Crisp Point lighthouse in Lake Superior. This fish, caught on a spoon. Is 42 inches long with a girth of inches. A short lime ago, Mrs.

One of the largest great northern pike to be seen In the Sault in some time was ft 16-poundcr, caught at Bay Mills on a dare-devil on July 26. This fish was Wi inches long and had a girth of inches. Roy Hollingsworth, Sault garage- man, returned last Sunday from n. two-day fishing trip nt Montreal river, 70 miles northwest of Sault, with 30 speckled beauties, six of which were 1G inches long each.

Representative Hoffman (R-Mich.) told the House an "unprecedented outburst" about Vice President Garner by John L- Lewie, head of the United Mine Workers, should be cxplungcd from the record. At the same time he declared that it was "more than surprising that the Democratic leadership had to he "prodded into audible resentment because of the lashings" which its vice president received from Lewis. He said that Ixswis' description of Garner as a "pokcr-playlng.

"We all remember that Lewis' organization contributed $470,000 to the New Deal campaign fund," he said. "Lewis seems to feel, and at times has acted, as though his 470.000 had bought him a president of the United States and twice he has demanded, after his organisa- tions had called strikes, that the Prcsjdr.nt come to his assistance. "Von on the Democratic side let this conduct, insulting in the highest degree to the President of the United States, pas unnoticed, un- rebukcd, probably on the theory that was not worthy of an answer.

Joseph Andary. grand knight of the Sault lodge of the Knights of Columbus, has been notified that the Marquette general assembly, fourth degree knights, will sponsor a fourth degree initiation for the entire Upper Peninsula at Marquette on Labor Day. Since a Fourth degree initiation is a red letter day for knights, several hundred, including a delegation from Sault Ste. Marie, are expected to attend. Contrary to general belief, An- said, the fourth degree is not a major degree of the order.

The first, second and third are major. The fourth, while being designated as the patriotic degree of the order, might be considered as a uniform rank unit. Many of the larger assemblies have drill teams and take part in parades and competitive drills conducted at state and national conventions. It is hoped, he said, that after this class on September -1 the Upper Pcnnisula assemblies will organize at least one corps under a drill master. Any Knight with two years membership behind him, and in good standing with his council, is eligible to nppy for membership in the fourth degree assembly.
