80 UPLAND CRANBERRY. 



in great quantities in various sections of British 

 America, particularly on the Neepegon coast of Lake 

 Superior. 



The plant is much like our common cranberry, but 

 more vigorous, covering the ground entirely with a 

 green mat, while the surface is flaming red with 

 berries, more delicious than anything of the kind I 

 have ever tasted. 



I have no doubt the plants may be propagated to 

 great advantage on poor, cold, sterile lands of a north- 

 ern exposure in all the United States. But they 

 should not be put in marsh or bogs.
