Dr. r'qicllael and his associates are doing exlaers.lnental jurors on a strain
of cranberry pollen-collecting bee . 2| am sure that although ('ne work has been
very promisingly, it is still only in the e|cpers.men|Lal stage, and queens f rom these
colonies are not yet available .
Bilge are enclosing the bulletin on cranberry pollination which you requested.
As you %|111 note, in our recent article on cranberry pollination in
the J-IS.JZIRTC/J|I else JCIITPI'IJ.L, we are now using much higher concentrations of honey
bees on ('lew Jersey cranbel|ez|zr bogs than were recommended in this bulletin.
