CRANBERRY HARVEST
Each Fall, the cranberry harvest gets underway. Lowland bogs are flooded; berries are knocked from vines with "eggbeaters", causing them to float on surface. Berries are loaded on trucks by conveyor for transportation to processing plant near Long Beach, Wash. The first planting of cultivated cranberries in the state was near here in 1883.
