Jamaicans Picking Cherries In Smithsburg County
Jamaicans are this week picking sour cherries in the Smithsburg area to be sent to canneries. A second group of about seventy arrivals is expected soon. Farmers report adequate labor so far with mutual aid leniences. Some Civitan Public Service campers help brief periods while State Penal Farm inmates are not used this year. German prisoners of war work in Hancock and Green Ridge areas. County Agent Mark Miller urges preharvest pruning and offers spray guidance from the County Agent’s office.
