"Cultivation of cranberries confined to three States. The cultivation of cranberries in the United States is confined mainly to three States-Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Wisconsin. In Massachusetts the cranberry-growing region in turn is limited almost entirely to the counties of Plymouth, Barnstable, and Bristol; in New Jersey, to Cape May, Atlantic, Gloucester, Burlington, Ocean, and Monmouth counties; and in Wisconsin, to Wood, Jackson, Juneau, and Monroe counties in the Wisconsin River Valley, and to Waushara and Winnebago counties in the Fox River Valley. (Fig. 1 for map of Wisconsin.) For several years there has been a marsh in the village of Cameron, Wis., and recently one was started in the Lake Superior region near the town of Ashland, Wis. The cultivation is slowly extending to Michigan and Minnesota and even Oregon, but the cultivated marshes in the three states last named are at present comparatively of no importance. There are, of course, wild cranberry marshes in several of the Northern States, but the berries picked therefrom are seldom sufficient to supply even local needs. They are of little consequence as compared with the fruit produced in the cultivated marshes of Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Wisconsin"--Introduction.

No matter where you live, you’ll soon enjoy a thriving vegetable garden year-round.
A collection of Courtney's columns from the Texas Monthly, curing the curious, exorcizing bedevilment, and orienting the disoriented, advising "on such things as: Is it wrong to wear your football team's jersey to church? When out at a dancehall, do you need to stick with the one that brung ya? Is it real Tex-Mex if it's served with a side of black beans? Can one have too many Texas-themed tattoos?"--Amazon.com.
This book brings together experts from different fields, who used a broad spectrum of methods to investigate the physiological and cellular adaptation of alpine plants from the tree line to the upper limits. Some articles link alpine plant physiology with physiological adaptations observed in polar plants. Tolerance against often high light intensities (including UV), cold or freezing temperatures, in addition to the need for fast tissue development, flowering, and propagation that is managed by alpine plants are to some extent underrepresented in recent research. This volume considers ice formation and winter conditions in alpine plants; the fate of cryophilic algae and microorganisms; cell structural adaptations; sexual reproduction in high altitudes; the physiology of photosynthesis, antioxidants, metabolites, carbon and nitrogen; and the influences of microclimate (temperatures at the plant level, heat tolerance), UV light, weather and ozone. Further information on life processes in alpine extreme environments may additionally yield new insights into the range of adaptation processes in lowland plants.
