They 're calling for a . rnora!Orium. They want the state govemrnem to make it illegal to ex pand any e•isting facilities or build any new ones. Farm· !lureau thinks this is a bad 1dea. A really bad idea. But instead of arguing against such a plan, here's an altemalive to consider. Rather than trying 10 shul down larger farms, let's large! 1he lillie ones. I propose a moratorium on farms slaying smalL Afler alL there arc hungry people oul !here. The world's population is growing . How dare these private property ownelli selfishly decide they want to keep a few acres in the country all !o lhemselves. They should be fo rced to buy additional land, put up barns, invesl in equipmenl, and join 1he ti ght againSI world hunger. Never mind lhallhm family jusl wants a 'luie! place in 1he country to grow a lew crops and raise a couple head of I!VCS!OCk. What they want is of no conse~uence. By slaying small. these operallons are preveming the rest of us from having more food at lower prices. And so, smce I can gather a small but very loud group of people. I shou ld be able to e•ert my influence and force all these small farm<" lu lake on huge amounts of debt "'. • and headache and become on of" the big guys!" By now you're probably thinking this is a pretty silly idea. You're right, it is. But the idea of forcing farmelli to get big is no more ridiculous than foncing them to stay small. Should we a~ a society dictate the size or scale of any private business? No. As long a~ that business meets its legal and social responsibilities, there is no rea'iOn for anyone to infringe on the free enterprise system. In Ohio, agricultures tnu:k record of meeting those responsibilities is tremendous. Despite what othelli may claim, farmelli are doing a great job of protecting the land, air, and water of our state. Is there room for improvement in these efforts? Probably. Are fanners seeking out ways to gain those improvements? Definitely. Should we arbitrarily throw up a slop sign in front of this vital industry? Of COUiliC nol. For some livestock producing families in this state, their pelliOnal goals point them towards expansion and growth. For others, their desires are mel by maintaining a smallerscale operation. Either choice is line. The point is, these families should be allowed to make their own choices. The call for a moratorium is a call to take away that ability to choose.

" By BECKY COWNS GALLIPOLIS - You might love a 90-dea- day to play at the park or in the pool, but too much sunny, summer weather can give bacteria a chance to spoil, your picnic. , Food scren11sts say when food rs stored berween the temperatures of 40 and 140 dea-s Fahrenheil it's in a dang~r· zone. (How can you store somethrng at I00 degrees? Leave a cheese cake sit in a meta! cake container in the sun -- the insides heat up!) Bacteria thrive in the danger zone. Bacteria live everywhere in nature: they're in the soil, air. water and the foods you eat Usually, the amount of bacteria is so low that it doesn't do any harm. But with the right temperature, food, moisture and time, bacteria can multiply so quickly that they double every 20 minutes, That's why food scientists rccommend that you never leave food out of the fridge for more than rwo houlli. And. if your picnic is al the lake an hour's drive away, and it.takes another hour to unpack the car and get the chancoal grill fired up, the food you packed might be on the verge of spoiling. (If it smells bad. it's not safe to eat) To help prevent that, pack all the food that needs to stay cold in coolers filled with ice. and store them in the shade. Be sure to put ~-~ ice on top of the food since cold atr ts heavier than warm air and falls. If you put the ice on the bottom. il will really only keep the bottom of the cooler cold. Also. pack the soda tn a separate container. The more times you open the cooler. the more chances the cold air ha~ to escape. Finally, remember this tip: Getting sick isn't worth the food When in doubt, throw it out! What makes fireworks so colorful? They're all gas! Let's stall from the ground up. Fireworks come in different shells that are packed in layers. (The shape of shell and how it's packed controls the firework's design.) All fireworks that shoot into the air have what's called a propellant Think of a propellant a~ a kind of fuel. Afu"' goes into the fuel and set~ it on fire. a lot like how you might see people light dynamite on television. · The burning fuel~ a lot of gas quickly. The gas propels the fu-ewOit into the air. ..

The hot fire (more tban 3,2'70 degrees Fahrenheit!) causes the chemicals to react together and gam more energy, The chemicals gel rid of this extra energy by giving off light a~ they bum. The actual color of the gassy I Today: Sunny High: 80; Low:60 flame depends on what ingredients are packed in the shell. If there's an element called barium, the gas streaming oul from the firewOit will be a-n. Strontium compounds look red as a gas. copper compounds look blue. sodium looks yellowish. and magnesium or aluminum look white. And the hotter the fire. the longer the chemicals will stay a' a ga' to show off their pretty colors. Rebecu Collins II GaUill Coonty's agent in family and consumer sciences.

Shock wave from insurer pullout plans. still reverberating By JAMES HANNAH Assa<iated Press Writer DAYTON - The furor over an msurance company's decisoon to woth· draw its Medocare HMO coverage in 22 rural Ohio countoes made otself heard even at Sen. Mike DeWme's oce cream social. The Ohio Republican said several people asked him about ot during the annual event at hos Ccdarvolle farm earher this week . Kathy Keller, spokeswoman for the American Association of Retored Persons of Ohio. said her group has also gotten calls from concerned subscribers of Anthem Blue Cross & Blue Shoeld. "For people of modest means, affordable care becomes a real concern," Keller saod. "Some people have found of they go back to theor previous msurer, they have to pay a higher rate than they previously paid." Garhnn Story, executive director of the Cincmnato-based Pro Seniors, said the advocacy group for the elderly also has been fielding calls from concerned residents. " I 1hink senoors believe there's nol a system out there that's really addressing senior needs, and this is just another example of this," Story saod. She saod the Anlhem situation will force the subscribers to face a number of confusing optoons. • "This just makes it so they have to wade through and make decisions. " Anthem announced in May il plans to withdraw its Senior Advantage program in the 22 counties because !he federal government put a cap on premiums, limiting increases to no more !han 2 percent. Anlhem officials said it was a difficult decision. Anlhem spokeswoman Lauren Green-Caldwell said Thursday the company knew !he decision would affect a lot of people. "Thai's why we have lried lo be as careful and as forthcoming with our communocaloon" about the decision, she said. "We wanted to give people every opportunity to find another health-care plan.

A hint of thongs to come occ urred in 1994, when President Clmlon allowed AlliedSignal Inc . to sell Chona the manufacturing technology used to buold its Garrell gas turbme engmes. One frustrated U.S. official complained at the tome that the sale could be a major boost for Chma's military ambilions. "This (sale) would govc China the tec hnological know-how lo make engmcs for long-range cruosc missiles capable of hottong any clly in Japan , Korea -- all' the way through India," the official said.

His television series, which ran from 1951 lo 1957, and thereafter in reruns, had similar appeal. Rogers preferred to play down violence, shooting the gun out of the vil~~ lain's hand, rather than hurting the villain himself. He criticized olher, more vtolenl Westerns. In many films and in the television series, he co-starred with Dale Evans, whom he married in 1947. Featured were his famous palomino horse, Trigger, and his dog, Bullet. His sidekick in films was bewhiskered Gabby Hayes, in television Pal Brady.

The or emphasiS has been less on pubhc health than on safeguardmg the pri· vacy of those onfecled on order to protect them from diScnmmauon. That os a logocal goal, but there's been little concern for theor sexual partners, who may be exposed to HIV or AIDS because they have nol been !old by thcor onfcctcd lovers !hal they too can now be m danger. Thos somclomcs lethal lack of communocatoon became vov1d when a number of onfecled Pucno R1can women m East Harlem were funous on fmdong oulthat Ihe or husbands or companoons had hecn goong 10 an AIDS clonoc , bul had never told THEM. Another vocllm of a frightcnmg surpnsc was Barbara Wolhams. who later became a counselor at Health Force: Women and Men Agaonst AIDS, on !he Bronx. She os HIV posolovc, and pomls out that "neothcr my boy fncnd (now dead) or any of hos doclors told me why he was sock." Recently. Barbara Wilhams went to Albany where the New York slale legislature was debaung a boll by Assemblywoman Nellie Mayersohn that would require doctors to report the names of HIV-posotove people to the state Health Department. The names would become part of a central registry. Local health agenctes would then mtcrview those on the registry Hentoff and ask them to name !heir scxu· al par(ncrs -· who would be noli fled by government health workers that they are at rosk . The odcntily of !he infected source would not be revealed. There would be no penally. however, for HIV-i nfected people who refuse to do se lose the names of lheor sex ual partners. Furthermore, some sites for anonymous lcslmg would be preserved . Opposoloon to !he Maycrsohn boll was foerce . The opponcnls were largely the same people who. for three ;·cars, had blocked !he passage of an carhcr boll ol Maycrsohn lhal would no longer keep sccrclthe tests rcvcahng HIV mlccuons of newborn infaniS and !he or molhers. Parems had never been told that an onfanl was infecled, and so some of the choldrcn woth weakened immune syslcms subsequently docd before they could get any kond of treatment. Mayersohn 's contacHracmg bill was attacked 1h1s year, as before, by the AIDS establishment 'and !he ACLU . There was strong support, on the other hand, from !he New York State Mcdocal Sococty and !he New York State Assocoatoon of County Health Officoals. One reason for the intcnsoly of the opposoloon was the likelihood -as noted on the New York T1mcs -that "as the state woth the hoghcst rate of AIDS cases, New York could be innucntial on promoting other states to adopt such rcponmg.·· And that m1ght "change the nauon 's system of monnonng !he epodcmoc." One of those cntocal of the panner-nouficatoon bill was Lawrence 0 . Gostm. a prominent figure in the AIDS cstabhshmcnt. He is a member of the advisory commottcc of the Federal Centers for Doscasc Conlrol and Prevention. "Panncr nolofocaloon ," Gosqn told !he New York Tomes, "IS lhc one thong thai the AIDS community deeply fears .. !hat intomalc sexual panners woll he talked to and that theor names Will be given to the government, and that they wolllosc control of whatever small amount of mlomacy and pnvacy they had ." I have heard that argument from nearly the begmnmg of the AIDS epodemic. The fear of loss of pnvacy ' was certainly realistic, hut what of the uninformed partners who may discover the pnvacy of the grave'! Moreover, these partners, unaware of the danger they're on, can pass !he HIV vorus on to others. In the face of the voluble opposo· uon, Nettie Maycrsohn won the hattic. Her contact-lracong boll passed -1 the Assembly Ill-to-35 and also had no difficulty on !he Scnalc, w~crc n ·~ saolcd through 55-to-6. New York Gov. George Patako woll s1gn !he hoi I mlo law. Barbara W1Ihams' comnbuuon to the debate on Albany was compelling, as was her prcllmonary arto cle 1n the New York Posl "AIDS," she wrote, "os !he lead· ing cause of death m New York state, not only of whotc gay men and blacks 25 to 44 years old. but of mothers of choldrcn under 18 -- like myself. That makes AIDS the lcadong creator of orphans .... Aceordong to the New York Cuy Health Department, for 18,000 HIV tests laS! year, II completed only 350 partner notofocatoons." That was before Nellie Mayer- . sohn , who never gives up, got her · partncr-nolofication bill made into law.

In July 1989, Helms introduced a bill that forbade !he NEA from supporting "obscene or indecent materials" and anything that offended anybody on the basis of religion, race, creed, sex, age, handicap or national origin. Helms' effort resulted in a 1990 law that instructed !he NEA to consider "general slandards of decency and respecl for the diverse beliefs and values" of the public. Four performance artists who were subsequently denied grants sued on the grounds 1ha1 their First Amendment nghts had been violated.

One fights to avoid analytical errors. but there is a limit to the amount of time one can dedicate to that task. However, there is less e~cuse for bidding blunders. True, not everyone sees things in the same light, but I saw two quiz answers recently lhat caused a real mi~ of emotions, all bad. Here's the first. Look at the 1\lonh hand. West, on your nght, vpens three clubs. You make a takeout double,. After East passes. your panner replies (a) three hearts or (b) three spades. What would you do, if anything? The author wrote, "Since (your partner) may have a few points or none, you 'II have a tough guess whether to raise him to game." But if partner bids three spades, you have no guess. When competing against an opposmg pre·empt. you bid on the assumption that panner has si~ or seven high-card points. So, with 19 points, il is automatic to raise lhree spades to four. You might not make il, but you must bid on. If partner advances with lhree hearts, you do have a problem. Bul it would probably be best lo raise to four hearts. Suppose this is the layout Against four spades, West wtll probably lead the club king: East will switch lo a diamond or a trump The simples! line is lo draw trumps and try for a 3-3 diamond split But when you see the bad break, lead dummy's founh diamond and discard a heart. East must relum a heart into dummy's acequeen. givtng you 10 !ricks via three spades, two hearts, three diamonds .. a heart ruff in hand, and a club ruff tn the dummy. - ~· · 1985 Ford Crown VIctoria, 4·dr, good !Ires.

Monday, July 6, 1998 Pomeroy • Middleport, Ohio Treat and prevent flea infestations By Alden Waitt, President Meigs County Humane Society Yikes 1 Those nasty, flanish, small dark brown or b!ack bugs scurrying over your dog or eat's skin are, indeed, fleas. There may be only a few, bul, sad ly , they represent only five percent of the total flea population . For every one you find on the cat or dog , there are many, many more . And in warm weather, fleas thrive . The poor animal plagued by fleas can be see n continually scratching, licking , biting-perhaps suffcnng hair loss and even open sores. Some animals are htghly allergic to fleas and they suffer more than others. The franti cally sc ratching dog is domg he/she can do to battle the biting of these pests . Now, it"s up. to you. Many of us ha ve discovered the hard way that you can"t get rid of fl eas on cats and dogs si mply by buying a Ilea collar. The solutiOn is a multistep process that must be followed, particularly now that 1he warm weather is upon us. The most common cause of allergic dermatitis in the cat, and the bane of many infested dog s, fleas carry tapeworm. among other things, and sap animals of nutnents , making them very sick indeed . . To determine if your pet is under siege, check the lower portion of the an im al"s back. the base of the tail , the lower abdomen, and under the neck . Pan the halls and run your hands over these areas. You may sec !leas. or ri ca ""dirt,"" "'hat looks like small specks of dirt scatlc rcd among the ha11s . This is the Ilea's fecal matter. whtch contain~ dried blood. That blood is from your cal or dog. Adult females deposit their eggs on various places, including the host- your dog, for example. The eggs and flea feces fall off the dog onto the carpet. the grass, and the animal"s bedding. The larue hatch, feed on adult flea feces, molt twice, then pupate tns1de stlk cocoo ns which protect against treatment. Finally, adult fleas emerge from cocoons and seek a warm animal host on which to feed and reproduce . Although the pupae (the resting stage of the flea) account for only 10 percent of the total Ilea population, they can account for J 00 percent of the fle a problems after you have initially treated the ~nimal and the house' So first you treat the animal with shampoo, powder, or spray, followed by a fl ea dip for dogs . Read the label carefully; some of these product s cannot be used on young, lactating, or pregnant animals. On the same day, you vacuum the house, sofas, under furniture, concentrating on areas where the animal spends a lot of time, then immediately di scard the vacuum bag. Also wash floors and the ammal' s bedding (always in hot water). Then spray or fog the house, Including the dog 's house . And spray the yard . · Then to keep the fleas away, you can purchases one of the spNon ointments (they are made for cats and for dogs), which are applied between the dog or cat 's shoulde~blades every. couple of tnonths . The ointment diffuses along the sk1n's surface, k1lltng fleas as they bi!e. And now, flea conlrol treatments are also available as a pill taken once a month .

American flag program presented to DAR chapter The American flag and its origin was the theme of the June Flag Day program of Return Jonathan Meigs Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, held at Foster House in Minersville. The program was presented by Pauline Atkins, regent, who noted that the United States flag . is the third oldest of the National Standards of the World. It was first authorized by Congress June 14, 1777. The date is now observed as Flag Day. ;.Atkins explained the colors as red is for valor, zeal and fervency, white for hope, purity, cleanliness of life, and rectitude of conduct; and blue, the color of heaven, for reverence to God, loyalty, sincerity, justice and truth. The star symbolizes dominion and sovereignty, as well as lofty aspirations, Atkins said. The constellation of the Slill"S within the union, one star for each state, is emblematic of our l'ederal Constitution, which rese.-.<s to the Stales their individual sovereignty except as to riilts delegated by them to the Federa~ovemment, she explained. Atkins said that no one knows with absolute certainty who designed the first stars and stripes or who made it. However. she said that Congressman Francis Hopkinson seems most likely to have designed it and historians believe that Betsy Ross, a Philadelphia Seamslre<s made the first one. Atkins stated that on June 14, 1777. in order to establish an official nag for the new nation, the Continental Congress passed the first Flag Act: "Resolved, that the nag of the United States be made of thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union of thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new Constellation." Later, ~y executive order of President Eisenhower, dated August 21, 1959, provided for the arrangement of the stars in nine rows of stars staggered horizon tally and eleven rows of stars staggered vertically. In 1813, Atkins continued, Major George Armistead, commander at Fort McHenry, asked for a flag so big that the British would ha•e no trouble ·seeing it from a distance. She detailed the historic events during the baule of Fort McHenry, noting the role of Francis Scott Key, a lawyer, who watched the bailie In 1943. the Supreme Court ruled with apprehension, not knowing that that school children could not be the British land assault had been forced to recite it.

REED Sentinel News Staff Three emergency resolul .ns were appro•ed when Pomeroy \Village Council mel in regular session on Monday evening. All three required readings were . held of a resolution which declared a ponion of Spring Avenue a disaster site due to a land slide there. The local declaration will allow village administrator John Anderson to apply for emergency grant funding to repair the slip, which has caused utility outages and road damage. The required readings were also held on a resolution authorizing the transfer of $40,000 from the village general fund to the street fund for the purpose of covering a deficit balance in the fund. According to Clerk Kathy Hysell, the village generully appropriates approximately $100,000 into the fund, and has so far appropriated $80,000 including last night's transfer. Finally, council held three readings on a resolution authorizing membership in the Great Lakes Rural Community Assistance Program, a non-profit agency which can help the village pursue grant funding through USDA/Rural Development for a waterline extension in the Naylor's Run and Pleasant Ridge areas. According to Council John Muss- er. the membership comes at no cost to the village, and the agency will pursue grant funding for the project which, if funded, would provide water service to 31 new homes in the Naylor's Run and Plea<ant Ridge ..-e.as. Musser announced that the village had received a $350,000 gr~nl from the Ohio Public Works Commission for the replacement and installation of sewer lines in Western Pomeroy -that anea from Monkey Run to the Middleport corporation limit. Completion of the project is essential for the village, in that the EPA has set a deadline for the village to complete the sewer system to the area. and can levy fines against the village if the system is not completed. Council authorized the payment of $2,000 for mowing the Ohio River bank in July and September from the Pomeroy levee to the area near Kroger. Nitz cut the brush and weeds on the bank last fall. and has advised council that the cost of mowing the bank will decrease to $8SO per job if the village agrees to have the grass cut three times next year, for a total COS! Of $2,550. Musser commended Harry Leffle of Can-Do Maintenance for removing and storing the period light fixtures and park benches in the parking lol during last week's flooding. Musser also noted that S:u-ah Fish- . er had a.;.•isted in cleaning up the area and replanting flowers and that Kenny Wiggins<of Meigs County Liller Control and Recycling had removed tra•h receptacles from downtown. Musser noted that loitering and vandalism in the area of the parking lot stage were becoming increasing problems. Police Chief Jeff Miller said that the police department had a policy of regularly patrolling the area. Mayor Frank. Vaughan said that a_ regular walking patrol should be made of the downtown area in the evenings to discourage vandalism and other problems. Councilman Scott Dillon noted that potholes were in need of repair.

OFT: Keep Ohio's teacher unions !ieparate By JOHN NOLAN Aesoc:lated Prese Writer Ohio's two major teachers unions ane better off remaining s(parate because they have markedly different positions on major issues, the president of the Ohio Federation of Teachers said. Ron Marec said Monday that his union, which has approximately 20,000 members, was at odds with the I00,000-member Ohio Education Association on key issues, so he thinks a merger of the two wouldn 't.. have worked. "The overwhelming sentiment that has been expressed in.our council meetings was in opposition to a merger. So it's no sweat off our backs," Marec said in a telephone interview. On Sunday in New Orleans, delegates representing the 2.4 million members of the National Education Association rejected a merger with the 950,000-member American Federation of Teachers. A two-thirds •ote of the 9,715 delegates wa• needed, but the proposal was rejected by 58 percent of those who voted. The OEA said it was pleased that the national parents of both unions put aside longtime rivalries to at lea." discuss and consider a merger. Supporters of a me!Jlersaid it would create a powerful union to speak with one voic'e on education issues . How Ohio parents would react to that isn"t clear, the leader of one Ohio teachers association said Monday. " Parents. when you use the word 'union,' tend to bristle a lillie bit. I don't look . at it that way. Our main purpose os the beuerrnem of education in the Van Wert city schools."" said Rita Hurless, a teacher for 29 . years. who is president of the Van Wen City Education Association . The union switched its affiliation from the OEA to the OFT about a decade ago . Marec cited these differences between the OEA and the OFT: -The OEA supported a proposed 1-cent increase in the state sales Ia<. _wi th half the money to go toward helping Ohio's public schools. The OFT opposed the increase. whoch •oters rejected May 5. - Tho OEA is supporting Gov. George Voinovich in his campaign for the U.S. Senate, while the OFT isn"t backing Voinovich because Jl, has differences with the governor s stands on some education issues. The OEA said it is pleased that the unions have at least seriously con- sidered a merger.

Flood victims advised on emotional stability By BRIAN J.
