Fig. 4. — Before advertising was begun it was not unusual for a large crop of cranberries to bring a smaller 

 total receipt than a smaJ crop. The crop of 19U brought less than a crop one-half as large in 1917. Ad- 

 vertising was begun in 1916. Even in the face of sugar shortages and increased transp)ortation rates, 

 growers' receipts have not decreased with increased production since that date.
