Increasing Island Populations

Richard F. Beal

It's difficult finding a means of increasing the small population of Great Cranberry Island and until some combination of strategies is found for the human side, Farmer Richard Beal has decided to increase at least the animal population. Squash is a 800 pound boar from Gouldsboro. Squash has visited many farms this spring and is now in residence as "Chief Stud" at Skeldale Farm.
