By MARTIN CRUTSINGER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON- The nation 's unemployment rate fell to a six-year low as a surprisingly strong economy created thousands of new jobs in June. President Clinton was all smiles but investors, fearing higher interest rates, gave the stock market its worst beating in four months. The Labor Department reponed the jobless rate at S.3 percent, down from 5.6 percent in May, with 239,000 new jobs created. Hiring was exceptionally strong at restaurants and bars, and analysts said preparations for the summer Olympics in Atlanta helped boost the total. But Friday's repon sent the Dow Jones industrial average down 114 points. the seventh biggest point drop in history. Bonds were al so pummeled as falling demand pushed the yield on Treasury 's 30-year bond up to 7.18 percent at closing from 6.93 percent on Wednesday. Analysts said the larger-than expected job gains in June •. plus upward revisions 1\l April and May job growth, depicted an economy exceeding the speed limit set by the Federal Reserve . While Fed policy-makers passed up the chance to raise interest rates this week, chances of a rate hike on Aug . 20 if not before were put at a vinual cenainty, "This repon shows the economy rising well above the speed limit the Fed is comfonable with and we are starting to see signs of inflationary pressures in the labor market, " said Roben Dederick, chief economic consultant at Nonhcrn Trust Co. in Chicago. "The real issue now is whether the Fed will wait as long as the next meeting." Economists noted that average hourly earnings, a key indicator of wage pressures. jumped 0.8 percent. the biggest monthly increase on record . . Clinton and his top economic advisers sought to play down concerns of higher inflation and Fed rate hikes. "We have the most solid American economy in a generation," .the president told 'reporters at the White House. "It's good news when America can have high job growth. strong investment and low inflation." Republicans. who hope to win the White House· for Bob Dole this fall, took' issue with that assessment. "If Bill Clinton thinks he deserves credit for the economy, then why arc so many Americans unhappy with the direction of the country?" asked Nelson Warfield, Dole's press secretary. Rep. John Boehner, head of the House Republican Conference, argued about the quality of jobs being created, citing government statistics showing that 7.9 million Americans are now working two or more jobs, up 10.2 percent since 1994. "Today 's economic news is little comfort to the record number of families who have had to take second and third jobs ~ ince Bill €linton became president, raised their taxes and increased Washington 's spending," Boehner said. The White House argued that job growth since Clinton took office has averaged 244,000 per month, 90 percent higher than the 129,000 averajle over the 12 years of Reagan and Bush administrations. Labor Secretary· Roben Reich also rejected worries among economists that the 'big rise in earnings, which reflected a 9-cent-an-hour increase, was an early indicator of rising inflation. "Hourly workers have been wailing for some time to panicipate in this buoyant economy. If hourly wages have increased nine cents, that is great news. " Rerch said.

Only Bill and Hillary Clinton know the complete story. We sought the answer from White House insiders and Clinton intimates. Those who would talk requested anonymity. Two lines of authority extend separately from the president and first lady to the White House staff, they 'said. The staff is divided infonnally between FOBs (Friends of Bill) and FOHs (Friends of Hillary). The FOHs. our sources say, outnumber the FOBs. For a while. Hillary Rodham Clinton even had · her own counsel, salaried by taxpayers, to give her Bernard Nussbaum served tbe president, and deputy counsel Vincent By Jack AndersQn and Jan Molter Foster represented the first lady. Both were FOHs. This arrangement ended after Nussbaum resigned under fire and Foster committed suicide. But before his death, Foster told associates that his first priority was to protect Hillary's interests. On the day President Clinton was inaugurated, witnesses overheand a loud argument between the first couple. An angry, adamant Hillary reportedly ·wanted to take over the vice president's office.

Paul Tibbets Jr., 80, of Columbus, will be inducted along with three other aviation pioneers on July 20. The hall of fame, which was established in 1992. now has 151 enshrinees. h includes aviation pioneers such as the Wright brothers, astronaut Neil Annstrong and pilot Amelia Earhart. Each year ballots with the names of about 250 nominees are mailed to Hall of Fame board members, which number more than 200. The top votegetters are enshrined- usually four each year. . Mike Jackson, executive director of the hall, said Tibbets was first nominated in 1992 and that it takes at least two years for a nominee to win enshrinement ·· "He got in pretty quickly, ...Jackson said. "There's been people on that · ballot for 20 years." He said there are probably many aviation pioneers in the truest sense of the word who have yet to be even nominated. " If you look at the people who have been nominated and enshrined in the past, we' re not talking about lightweights," Jackson said. "There are a lot of deserving people out th€e. and it was his tum, it was his time." . Tibbets could not be reached to comment. He has an unlisted telephone number. · During World War Ij, Tibbets flew 25 missions in B-17s, including the first American Flying Fortress raid against occupied Europe. But he is best known as commander of the B-29 bomber Enola Gay, which on Aug. 6, 1945, completed the first mission to use an atomic bomb in war. · Tibbets has said that the atomic bombings on Hiroshima and Nagasaki brought Japan 's early surrender, sparing countless Allied and Japanese lives that a planned invasion of the Japanese main islands would have ~ost The three-month Battle of Okinawa cost an estimated 200,000 lives on both sides, including about 150,000 Japanese used as human shields by the Imperial Anny. The estimated Hi_roshima toll ranges from 70,000 to 200,000 including later radiation-caused deaths. _ Some historians have disputed that invasion would have been required to bring about Japan's capitulation. They say the Soviet Union's entry into the war, two days after Hiroshima, almost certainly would have brought about surrender. • Tibbets predicted nuclear arms would be the ultimate deterrent because nobody " in their right mind" would take a chance on having one of the weapons used on them. The other inductees this year are late Mercury astronaut Donald Slayton. aviation business executive Harry Combs and retired Navy Capt. David McCampbell.

Cringe at the thought of a coal-fired power plant sending that jolt of juice to fire up the toaster? A handful of utilities, ridiilg the wave of a soon-to-be-deregulated utility industry, are tinkering with the idea of letting consumers pick their power source. In a few test markets, utility consumers will be able to graze the electric buffet - picking among nukes, gas, hydropower, wind and coal. "We consumers do not have a choice where our power comes from. and we don't have a choice what it costs,." said Laura Scher. head of Working Assets, a private firm that promotes environmental arid "socially responsible" alternatives to such consumer services as telephones. credit cards, and now electricity. In a pilot program in New Hampshire. Working Assets is offering an electricity portfolio that docs not rely ·on nuclear power or on power generated from the controversial HydroQueboc Canadian hydropower system that critics say has been cnvirnnmcntally destructive at the expense of indigenous Canadians. Similar experiments arc hcing tried elsewhere. such as in Wisconsin. where seven utilities have created "Partnership for Customer Choice" to let consumers choose slightly more expensive renewable and alternative energy sources rather than tra- ditional nuclear or fossil fuel power. California is likewise wading into the restructuring waters. Ken Miller Under the programs. consumers will choose which power suppliers their electric payments support. Consumcr choice. therefore, will determine the mix from which a power distributor buys electricity. "Some arc calling it green pricin g." said Charlie Higley, senior policy analyst at Public Citi1.cn, the consumcr watchdog group founded by Ralph Nader. "This is a different mechanism entirely; hopefully it will rcly on people's preferences to choose power" to promote more sustainable, cleaner power. The experiments arc driven largely hy the planned restructuring of the utility industry. As Congress prepares to tackle a major overhaul of what has long been a monopoly husincss perhaps next year, some sllltcs arc already exploring oplions to give consumers more power choices while sorting through the thorny issues of who controls today 's transmission networks. Consumer groups and environmenlalists arc pushing the reforms to rep lac~ some traditio~al power sourccs _ w_ith cleaner altc~ativl!§. The uuhty mdust_ry. however, ts skcrucal of an clcc.tncl!y free-for-all that cuuld leave utthtlcs .o~ the h0<1k fc>r more tlutn $100 htlhnn wonh of nuclear and coal power plants that could fall into disfavor. Utilities want to be guaranteed they won't have to eat those massive "stranded costs." Consumer groups say utility shareholders - not consumers - should bear the cost of their unwise investments. A recent study by Michael Maloncy and Rohcrt McConnick, Clem· son University economics professors. for the Citir.cns for a Sound &onomy Foundation estimated a typical household could save an average of $216 a year if utilities had to compete for customers. Eleclric Generation As.~ociation President Bruce Levy said his industry support.~ a uniform federal restructuring plan by 2003 rather than what utilities fear will be a "crazy quilt" of state plans that could create chaos in pricing. access and utility. Under the Working Assets trial, the company is one of more than 20 authorized to compete for a pool of aboutl7.000customcrsjnatwo-ycar deregulation experiment in, New Hampshire.

Dole must ·select right running mate By DeWAYNE WICKHAM Gannett News Service · WASHINGTON - GOP presidential candidate Bob Dole says opposition to abortion is not a litmus t~st for his GOP running mate. Don 't believe him. Regardless of his pronouncement. ypu can bet the ranch Dole won't " select a vice presidential nominee whose views on this issue stray far from the anti-abortion dogma of the religious right. His words to the contrary are nothing more than political doublcspeak - meant to convince moderate voters that he's not. a hostage of the social conservative clique that dominates Republican Party politics. · That he won •t make opposition to abonion a litmus test for vice presidential aspirants "may distress some people," he said during an appearance on a morning talk show recent· ly, "but l am the nominee. I need to make the choice, and I need to find someone who can be president.·· Then he added: "And we also need to win the election." Wickham . And to win in November, Dole panders to the idea that he's. willing to hal(c an abortion supporter on the Republican ticket - and, if he's elected. a heartbeat away from the presidency. But Dole's public willingness to consid.cr a pro-abonion Republican for the second spot ·COnfticts with what he reportedly bas said in priva~e to his staff and to social conservative leaders. All his talk about tolerance for the views of others- make that moderate Republicans - is a smoke _screen. So why the ruse? Because Dole wants credit for both the moderale thin11s he says and the conservative things he does. He wants to unile the Republican Paity, which is badly ~ ' fractured over the abonion issue, hehind his troubled presidential campaign. Hn.w'! By saying one thing and doing another. So don't be surprised when the names of GOP social moderates like New Jersey Gov. Christine 'Todd Whitman and Massachusetts Gov. William Weld get mentioned a.~ possible running mates.

The unseeded Washington served out the rain -s uspended match in the 18th game of the fifth set to win 5-7, 6-4, 6-7 (8·6). 6-3, I0-8. Wash10gton , 27, became the first black to reach the Wimbledon men's final since Arthur Ashe won the IItle 10 1975 Washington, in a Grand Slam final for the firstnme 10 his career, will face R•chard KraJicek of the Netherlands for the title today. KraJICek overwhelmed Austrahans Jason Stoltenberg 7-5, · ~-2, 6·1 to also advance to his first Grand Slam championship match. · . Washington ' s victory over Martin, the 13th seed, meant that Wimbledon will have its first unseeded champion since Boris Becker in 1985. In the women's title match, Steffi Graf swept Arantxa Sanchez Vicario 6-3, 7-5 to wm her seventh Wimbledon title and 20th Grand Slam championship. The victory gave Grafher IOOth to within two of Martina Navratilova's record of nine Wiinbledon singles titles. The Washington-Martin match. which was suspended by rain for the fourth time at two sets apiece Friday, ended 25 hours after it began following 3;49 of actual playing ume. After Washington hit a high backhand volley for a cross-court winner on his first match point, he dropped to both kqees, clenched bot'ii fists and looked towards his friends alld family in the players' box. "You ·work hard for moments like this," Washington said. "You just want to seize the opportunity when it's in your reach. I could see it. When I was down 5·1 , it looked hke it was running the other way. I'm just glad I was able to catch up with it." Washmgton saw the significance of hiS victory extending beyond the tennis court. "I'm sure I'll get a good recep· tion when I get back home," he said. "I have a lot of support from the black community in the States and around the world . "It's an honor to be the first black man since Arthur to be in a Slam final." Martin, who played tentatively on many big points, said he never felt tighter during a tennis matrch. "I froze up a little bit and Mal Played well when he needed to," he said. "It's a game I've practiced a lot of times but I've never felt a feeling like today."

II I Ohio fishing report Outdoors . .. ' . ·~' · · · ·- .. Channel catfish angling gets high marks at Lake ·White· COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) Here is the weekly ftshing report provided by the Division of Wildlife of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources: Southeast LAKE WHITE -Excellent fishing opportunities exist for channel catfish anglers . Prepared baits, chicken livers, softcmws and nightcrawlers can be used to take these tasty fish which measure up lo 25 inches. Saugeyes, bluegills and largemouth bass also inhabit the lake. WOLF RUN LAKE - Channel catfish opportunities are similar to those found in many othe~ southeast Ohio lakes. Redear sunfish are limited in number but of good quality with an average size of n(\8l'ly sev· en inches. Use redworms or larval baits suspended beneath a bobber at depths of two to seven feel. Southwest EAST FORK LAKE - Some of the region's finest hybrid striped bass fishing is enjoyed here each summer. Use iive shad of three to five inches or softcraws fished at depths of 10 to 22 feet. Cast jigs and surface plugs when stripers are seen chasing bait fish along the surface. Largemouth and spotted bass al~o provide good fishing action. CAESAR CREEK LAKE- The larger bluegills are tak~n on larval baits and small worms fished at depths of I0 to 20 feet around deep pomts, submerged humps and droeoffs. These same areas will produce fair to good cat~;hes of crappies. Whtte bass fishing opportunities are improving. Ohio River The Willow Island Pool in Wash· ington and Monroe counties is composed. of 36 river miles and 5,400 surface acres of water.

He usually obliges. That's species in the United States. On viSits home he'd take pictures · because he's a carp guide. "Last year we caught only two of some of his bigger catches, but ftsh under five pounds out of more found "they still wouldn't 1\elieve than 1,000 fish," Haines says.

So he invited a few people to Based at Messina, N.Y., Haines come to the states and see for them· guides over a 100-mile stretch of the selves. Those guests had a good time St. Lawrence River. His season is and caught big fish. That was enough for Haines lo abandon accounting mid-May through September. and turn to guiding. · When he started six years ago His clients fall mostly into categuiding for carp, despised as a trash fish by most North American gories: Those who want to learn to anglers, "I think the initial reaction catch carp and maybe catch a large from most people was, 'What do you fish and experienced anglers who . · want to fish for them for,"' Haines want a really big fish. "Large fish for most people is 20 says. "A few people thought, 'That's different!' Some thought 'Leave him pounds or better." ·Haines says. "A alone, we think he's got a screw real big fish is 40 pounds or better." The World Record for common loose.' "Actually, people up in the area carp is 57 pounds, 13 ounces, caught I fish have been exceptionally nice in Washington, s Tidal Basin. and very supportive," he says. Haines has nothing but praise for "They're more curious than any- the European native fish which were thing." introduced into the United States in A transplanted Englishman who the 1800s. came to the United Stales in 1975, "They tend to have an average Haines had grown up fishing for carp size bigger than other species. They and other nongame fish. That's fight like the dickens. Pound for because the cost of equipment and- pound they 'II outdo a largemouth licenses for sport fishing, primarily bass. Almost nobody else fishes for_ them, so there's plenty of them." Haines says 65 to 70 percent of his clients are from Europe, primarily England, Germany, Denmark and Holland. The rest are .from the United States and Canada. He provides a complete package, includi~g rides to and from the airport, accommodations, boat and the special tackle and bait he uses to catch carp. "Most people who come fishing with me come for a week or multipies of a week, .one week, two weeks," Haines says. "The rare person comes for three weeks." Since carp · are bottom .feeders, bottom fishing is a favorite way to get them. When bottom fishing, Haines uses a strong, 12- or 13-foot rod and open-faced, bait-runner reels that allow the fish to take line with the bail closed. That way when the fish takes the bait it doe~n'l feel a stiff drag and drop the bait before swallowing it. He also uses European-style hooks, size 2 to 6. "Compared with an American hook they have a much shorter shank, they are much stronger for the size, thicker wire. very good steel," Haines says. He uses two types of bait: pulses, which are mixe• of peas, beans, corn and grains, and dough baits, or boilees, a mix of various high-protein ingredients bound with raw eggs to make a paste and then boiled for a short time to solidify the egg. Like most avid carp anglers, • Haines has his own secret recipes for baits. He also has little competition, even though the carp. a cousin of the common goldfish, has become one of the most common lish in North America. "They inhabit most every local pond or stream, and so they're available to almost every average American resident." Haines says. around the islands and embayments when bass fishing, Sunfish provide good fislti9g action throughout the pool when using minnows and red· worms. Cltannel catfish, . nathead catfish and hybrid striped ~ass .fish­ ing is best in July and August. Central SCIOTO RIVER - Sawgeyes, largemouth bass, smalltnouth bass and channel catfish are being caught in and near downtown Columbus, including the area below Greenlawn dam. Fish during the early morning hours for best results. Use small jigs and weighted spinners to take bass and saugeyes. BUCKEYE LAKE- The backwat~r areas away from boat traffic provide good fishing opportunities for ·bass and channel catfish. Usc nightcrawlers or chicken livers fished near the bottom when seeking channel catfish. This is one ·or central Ohio's best lakes for taking nathead catfish. Northwest FINDLAY RESERVOIR NO. 2 ::_ Use eight-forward spinners tipped with nightcrawlers trolled slowly at various depths when fishin' for walleyes. The fish range in size from II to 30 inches. The shoreline areas are good spots for bass anglers. Channel catfish up 10 28 pounds prl}vide very good night fishing opportunities. PLEASANT HILL RESERVOIR -Try fishing with jigs or weighted spinners at depths of 10 to 16 feet near the beach when seeking saugeyes. Crappies will be found suspended around deep-water structure. Use crappie rigs tipped with minnows for best results. · Northeast LEESVILLE LAKE - This is one of the premier muskie lakes in the Midwest. Fishing prospects remain excellent this yea" Use rapalas, plastic worms or small spin· ners cast into weedy areas or areas with submerged structure wllen seeking bass. Crappie fishing is expected to remain good. • PYMATUNING LAKE - Try fishing in the area around the causeway when seeking walleyes ancl channel catfish.

By JIM FREEMAN ··nmea-Sentlnel ataft · · · RACINE ·- Most people under 50 have never seen a brand-new 1955 • Ford Thunderbird. Fortuna1ely for the rest of us, the next best thing may just · probably be sitting in a Racine-area garage. . · Marvin Hili, owner of Hili's Classic Cars on Bashan Road, has been · restoring vintage ·cars. mostly older Thunderbirds, for about 10 years: Recently Hill won a national award from the Antique Automobile Club of · :America for thi best-restored Ford product built between 1946-to-197Q, a • t9S6 Ford Thunderbird. : • Hill's business actually started off as a hobby in 1978 with single 1956 :~ord Thunderbird. ·· : "I was never satisfied with one car," Hill said. "I built and sold about four :qf them and then people wanted me to start building them for them." :: • Now Hili has five people working in his garage ... which is not just anoth· automotive body shop. He ard his assistants work on cars from across the ·C:ountry, from Oregon to Florida and from Chicago, Detroit, Charlotte, N.C., :and other cities. , • Clients. send their cars ·- mostly unroadworthy ·- to Hill for restoration. · While the engines may run, suspen' sions, brakes and electrical systems are usually worn or even unsafe. But whe~ tbe cars leave, it's an entirely different story. For Hill , restoration of a classic car involves much more than simple painting and reupholstery. The auention to detail is phenomenal, right down to recreating factory identification and component color coding used during original manufacturing -- even on parts of the car the customer may never see. "That's what sets 'em apart," . Hill said. "These are top quality show a ::er . · cars."

The engine is sent out for rebuilding to factory specifications. The motor · is retqrned to the customer looking showroom new While a full body-off restoration can take between 1,000 and 1,500 hours, · afterwards, looking at one of Hill's restored cars can make. you feel like you're standing in a showroom 42 years ago .. looking at a new car, even down 10 the new car smelL 'Immaculate' and 'eKquisite' are two adjectives that spring to mind. "It's as close as you can get to a new car," Hill agreed. In addition, customers also receiye a comprehensive photographic record of the restoration, partly for their scrapbooks and also to verify what work was actually done. About 80 percent of Hill's cars are the vintage Thunderbird& with old Mustangs making up the secoild-largesl segment. "I l;ke the cars from the 'SOs.and '60s more than anything," he said. · · T,lle cars built between 1950 and 1971 are the most popular with Hili's cii'e!)ts, mostly people in the•45cand-over age groUJiWho can afford lhe custom lvork. · The reason for the appeal? "These are the cars they remember from their youths." he explained. One'ofHili's restorations, a 1971, 440-powered Dodge Charger, was featured in the December 1991 issue of Muscle Car Review. A copy of the arti· cle adorns the wall of his office along with oiher car photo~ and models. The era of the big block. high performance car engines came to an end in 1971 mostly due to federal fuel mileage requirements. Hill pointed out the old cars retain their appeal, even though they realis· ti~ally can't compare 10 new cars jn terms of quality of ride, safety: handling atid performance. But many of the old cars have a history; something that makes them special and' worthy of restoration. One that stands out in Hill's memory is a 1950 Dodge Wayfarer convertible he rebuilt for a Newcomerstown couple. The rare car (only 2,903 were ever built) played a memorable role in the early days of the couple's relationship, Hill explained.

I called Chicago, 1 called Denver, I called Columbus, and I failed to find out. However, one lady with the Lung Association told me she is digging up filter tips from her flower beds after having purchased the house "years" ago. Another depanment sent me a rlycr describing length of time for plastic s1x-pack neck rings and aluminum cans to disintcgr~te : 450 ycaq; and 500 years, respectively. Norma Torres, Nursing Director, Meigs County Health Depanmcnt, was a great help in my quest to ascenain telephone numbers for the information. Perhaps the statistic on cigarette filters will come in from one of these sources yet.

George could easily say I have my "off" days but mostly every day is looked upon optimistically in our household by both of us. After aU, if it is something that can be changed, we work at changing it; if not, we try to · ignore it or work around it. Sometimes, though, there are just too many events build-up, and I want to complain. Because it is always much more pleasant to be around non-complainers, perhaps 'one day a year should be set aside and we could all vent our hostilities · and frustrations and. as my grandmother used to s_ay, "Be done with it." One of my favorite gripes is the noise volume of television commercials. They boom on much louder than the program and endanger the hearing of anyone in the room. After listening to !he whisperings of the ·naturalists on PBS while they are .quietly stalking and filming. wild birds or animals, I have nearly had my ear drums shattered when the friendly salesmen of "Gotta' Buy a Dodge" or some other enthusiastic hawker, comes on screen. That problem can be remedied when we buy our next television set. We'llli-uy one installed with an automatic volume control that keeps the same decibel reading. , Another complaint: the drivers on secondary highways. It mystifies me why another driver believes they can make me drive faster by riding my bumper. I drive according to how well I know the road, hour of day, traffic volume, and road conditions due to weather. If someone wants to speed, or believes ·they arc late, they should have left sooner. After all, I've learned where Bambi hides and jumps out onto the roadways. I'd rather hit Bambi at 45 than 65. But, my real gripe are the people that paSs on double yellow (that even gets to George).

You view them from the old farm house muggled under the huge trees that form a comfortable canopy. There they are in the large . field - rows and rows of raised beds of daylilies - a sunbathed kaleidoscope of beauty. Some time ago, my friend Mary moved to the side of a lake in Indiana where her husband had built her dream house enveloped in a garden-to-,be, just the way Mary had planned a long, long time ago. Now it had been plowed, prepared and planted with flowers she had ordered by numbers in a flower catalog. This particular morning, a year ago, Mary and her husband took me to Bol:!, Evans for breakfast. Then, they invited ern to got along to a pnvate garden, so that Mary could take . pictures and match these to numbers on her garden plan to see how her garden would look next year at thi~ time. I was surprised and overwhelmed when' we arrived at Bob ~havers farm. It is a private garden open by invitation only. Bob Shaver started his daylily farm by accident; the accident of being overly successful wtth the patch he had started around his horne that grew out of bounds, literally. Looking for a home for his surplus, Bob planted some of his ' lilies on his father's farm and they flourished . The rest is history. Bob,advertises his prize specimens in The Day lily Journal, which cannot be bought on the newsstand. You have to be a member of the American Hemerocallis Society, and The Day lily Journal issues are guarded propeny like any collectors item. You can't talk them away from a member ~ I tried. . Daylilies are not demanding in their soil. They grow in the poorest soil, except clear clay, because they send deep roots down and do not need .daily ~atering. They grow in full sun or part shade. Some sunshine daily is necessary or they will just grow leaves. In planting daY,Iilies, simply spread the roots out flat, or over a small mound, in the bottom of the hole. Cover them with one inch or so of soil. Water thoroughly and frequently until you have the plants growing well. Plant them about twelve inches apart and they are an ideal accent plant in your Potager garden. "Anytime is the best time to plant a daylily," says Bob, They are well adapted for naturalizing and for borders. Winter mulching is not needed. They bloom from late spring to fall. What else can you ask foim a flower as beautiful as ~ daylily? · Except Marilyn, a co-member in the Herb Guild, reminded me that daylilies arc also edible. True. Ac,~:ording to Lee Allen Peterson's book, "Edible Wild Plants" the daylilies escaped from home gardens, and growing wild, arc an excellent source of salads.

The alien-invasion thriller, which stars Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum. is on its way to the biggest opening weekend ever, having taken in $28.2 million through Wednesday. Even President Clinton, who has seen the movie, got in on the act. He joked about it at a Fourth of July rally in Youngstown, . Ohio. "Somebody said I was coming to Youngstown because this was the day that the White House got blown away by space aliens,'' Clinton said. · "I hope it's there when I get back. Anyway.

Not Iris DeMent; she always wanted to be a Stranger. The singer-songwriter got her wish a few months back, hitting the road with her idol - Merle Haggard - as part of his band, the Strangers. She landed the gig after Mr. Haggard heard her sing his "Big City, " on Hightone Recond's alternative-country Haggard tribute album "Tulare Dust." He preferred it to is original version, he said, and invited her to tour with him. "I went out on the road for a couple weeks in September. I played piano, believe it or not, in the Strangers," says DeMent, best known as a guitarist. Touring with the Okie from Muskogee has bee~- bout the most mainstream thing De em. 35, has done in her coun. try mus' career. Her emotional, personal songs, plaintive vocals and simple guitar accompaniments are worlds away from the slick commercial sounds of Shania or Reba. Her music has been embraced by •~e growing alternative co~ntry music movement. That hasn't meant hit records, however. But as she prepares to release her thind album, radio finally may be catching on. "Pretty much from the beginning, . public radio and community radio would play me," she explains. "And then on the last record ("My Life"), a few Triple A (adult album alternative) stations started picking it up. But really, as far as radio· wise, nothing's really half-way.

The more common way is to apply the exposed course one-half-inch lower than the undercourse using two natls placed about 2 inches above the boltom edge and three-fourths-mches from each edge. In this IYJH: of installation, the nails will .be v1stble. which most people cons1der to be unacceptable. If you are trying to match coursing that's been applied this way •.then by all means, use the s urfac~ na1hng. But, generally speaking, it's a better idea to always plan your work so the subsequent course will cover up the nails. , The other way to apply double coursing was common on the West By POPULAR MECHANICS For AP Sptclel Futu111 ' From the saltboxes that dot the Northeastern shoreline- especially in Cape Cod- to California's ornate Victorians, wood shakes and shingles, are part of Amc:rica's past. Whether lhe traditional square bull or the multipattemed fancy-cut variety, it's hard to beat the beauty of this natural, textured siding. . Historically, shakes and shingles were made from many types of wood, including cedar, redwood, oak, cypress, pine spruce and fir. Although they are still made from a variety of species- panicularty on some of the more sophisticated architectural restoration jobs- cedar is the mosl common wood used for today's shakes and shingles. Most people know the difference • between a shingle and a shake. Shingles are machine-sawn into smooth, tapered boards that range in size from about 3 or 4 inches wide to over 16 inches wide. Shakes. on the other hand, are hand-split with a sleel-bladed froe, then sawn in half. This gives them their rough surface and flat , smooth back. The traditional way to install shakes and shingles is called single coursing. Each piece of siding is auached so that it covers about half of the one below it. Only 1wo nails are u~ to secure each shake or shingle and are spaced so that the fol lowing course cover.; them . This is the common way homes were shingled on the East Coast. Siding with double courses is the way to achieve deeper shadow lines and wide weather exposures, from 12 inches lo 16 inches, depending on the Coast in the early 1900s, and 'is a_way . 10 achtcve even deeper shadow In~ .

USA Today Detroit Bureau Chief Mkhellne Maynard spent three months 'eombing through GM documents and Interviewing people involved in the projeet fot this report.) DETROIT - For years, Saturn dealers lhave clamored for a bigger car, something to offer·otherwise loyal customers who have simply outgrown Saturn's limited lineup of small cars .. · For years, General Molors chief Jack Smith has been pushing GM to come up with cars that can be built iii the USA and Europe on 1he same basic plalfonn, saving billions in product development costs. ·· The ,two goals come together in Innovate, code-name for the nex(generation Saturn, a version of the Opel Vectra GM sells in Europe. Innovate likely would go on .sale in the USA in 1999 if GM's board approves the project next month. ' The project has powerful· backers at GM - Smith, small-car development chief Richard S. "Skip" l;efauve and international technology '*'ad Peter Hanenberger. Smith insists tl)e project won'l happen just because h~ wants it to: "I don't pull that kind of weight." But GM insiders say Innovate is all but certain to get the go-~head. Still, the effort runs the risk of ruining the all-American imagt'that has made Saturn a marketing phenomenon and of undoing the cooperalive labor relati011s ttult has set Saturn's Spring Hill. Tenn., plant apart in the automotive world. There also is no guarantee of success in the marketplace: Indeed, GM has already scaled back sales estimates for Innovate. And the project has been delayed repeatedly as GM wrestled with the contentious issu~s it raises. Jack Smith's dream As Gl\tl's international operations chief in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Jack Smith helped tum GM Europe into an efficient manufacturer of popular cars. He also launched . " OM's expansion into Eastern E~. Latin America and Asia, using the same cars GM sold in Europe. GM engineers in Gennany could tweak the cars lo meet consumers' tastes and fuel-economy siandards in different countries. The · cars were basically the same underneath, sparing GM the $1 billion-plus needed to develop all new cars for each market. When Smith became OM chief executive in 1992, one of his priori· ties was gelling the USA and Europe to share platfonns. He thought GM was wasting money building five different small and midsize cars in Europe and the USA. Long tenn, Smith thought GM could get by with one platfonn for small cars and another fQI' midsize cars. But gelling there would take a decade. Meanwhile, GM product planners wanted to run a one-car experiment to test the idea of sharing a platfonn. Midsize cars had always been one of GM's weaknesses in the USA; GM's midsize offerings couldn't compete with Ford's Taurus, Honda's Accord and Toyota's Camry. So, in 1994, developers decided the European Opel Vectra, then a year away from being overhauled for Europe, should be turned into a car for North America. A search began for the division to sell it. It had to be one whose dealers ·would do a good jOb peddling something unique. Beefing up Satum There was only one answ~r: Saturn. · Since arriving in 1990, Saturn has won countless customer-service awards and boundless customer loyalty for its friendly, no-haggle approach . But Saturn's lineup has been limited since 1993 to two sedans, a coupe and a station wagon as GM executives debated how it should grow. There was no rush because " they don't want to mess up a good thing. There's too much brand equity on the line, " says Richmond, Va., dealer Haywood "Huddy" Hyman JII, a member of Saturn's board. Also, after spending $3.9 billion to get Saturn and its Spring Hill plant up and running, GM was reluctant to spend more to give Saturn a bigger car. Despite strong sales, Saturn has been minimally profitable because of the hu~e start-up costs. GM initially decided Saturn buyers could move up to Oldsmobile when lhey wanted bigger cars. Olds needed ihe business: Its sales have See answer on page DB .. ..,.,, ."' been sliding since the mid-1980s. Olds tried to "Saturnize." It adopted Saturn's no-dicker sticker prices. It sent Olds dealers to Spring Hill for rope-climbing exercises to build ieamwork ahd sessions on Saturn's low-pressure sales tactics. · The effort failed: The bland Olds image never fit Saturn buyers, says Appleton, Wis., Saturn dealer John Bergstrom: "They go to (w·Toyota) Avalon or a Camry or an Accord. You don't · see them driving a Buick LeSabre or an Oldsmobile." This summer, Olds canceled one· price selling for the 1997 model year and let dealers go back to negotiating, dropping a key Saturn feature . Meanwhile, Salurn dealers didn't give up their push for a bigger car. Market research was on their side: "Saturn's loyalty rate (about 45 percent) would be 95 percenl if they had a step-up car," says consultant Art Spinella of CNW/Marketing. The dealers cheered when GM decided in 1994 to see whether it could turn Vectra into a Saturn. Labor woes II seemed natural to build the bigger Saturn at the Spring Hill plant, which had been designed to expand. But UAW official Steve Yokich had other ideas. Yokich , now UAW president, thought GM shouldn't pour more money into S~turn when it was closing factories elsewhere. He had never liked Saturn's labor-management partnership anyway. So he demand- . ed that GM build the new Saturn at another plant. • Faced with the ultimatum, GM picked its plant in Wilmington, Del., slated to close in 1996. Wilmington's 3,000 workers quickly approved a · special contract lhat gave GM flexibility in running the faclory. Spring Hill seemed 10 be an afterthought. "The Wilmington situation (sends) us a clear message we can not afford. to ignore," says Saturn union official Joe Rypkowski . Early in Saturn's existence, OM bragged aboul its can-do workers in Tennessee. Saiurn dealers showed a marketing · film called "Spring in Spring Hill." The film celebrated the workers, who gave up jobs and seniority at other OM plants to join Saturn and have more say in ·how things were done. Workers appeared in TV commercials, talking aboul how they could make decisions on 1he factory floor withoul waiting for management:S OK.

The Public Utility Commission of Ohio (PUCO) recently released its grade crossing statistics for 1995, including a 10-year look at all Ohio accidents. Over the 1986-1995 period. six of the top IOcountics for rail• road accidents were in the northwest quadrant of the stale, including Wood, Seneca and Ottawa. However, in tenns of sheer number of railroad crossing crashes, the report shows Ottawa County's 62 railroad accidents ranking 20th of Ohio's 88 counties. PUCO spokesperson Lee Veroski pointed to the "high concentration of railroads in that area" for the relatively high number of accidents in northwest Ohio. "The sheer number of crossings is higher, S\l statistically there is just a better chance of an accident taking place," she said. Ohio fatality numbers have dropped like a crossing gate, nearly halved from 63 in 1989to 32 in 1995. In facl, last year was the first since 1986 when there were no fatalities in 'Phantom' film version -recalls glory days of comic strips for creator Falk sear CARMICHAEL'S FIRM & ·LAWN (614) 446-2412 or Toll Free 1-800-594-1111 Pomeroy e ·Middleport • Gallipolis, OH e Point Pleasant; WV Ottawa County. Likewise, the total number of accidents statewide has dropped from 418 in 1989 10 207 in 1995. Veroski attributed both statewide drops 10 increased driver awareness and safely precautions. She said $75 million in federal dollar.; and $9 million in state funds has been spent in Ohio to upgrade railroad crossings since 1990. · However, a bill reccnlly intro· duccd by a northwcsl Ohio legislator questions whether enough money is being spent and from the right lypes of funding sotirces. · House Bill 776, introduced by State Rep. Lynn Wachtmann, RNapolcon, asks the PUCO to survey . all railroad crossings and idenlify those presenting a danger. The bill then recommends to the General Assembly that railroad companies be assessed a tax on every gallon of diesel fuel used in the state. While the actual amount of the tax would be based on lhc level of need identified by the survey, lhc laK money would be used to buy active crossing warning devices such as lights and gates. Sponsor Wachlmann points out thai Ohio is still ranked fourth ih the nation in number of falalities and accidenls over the past five years.

For example. he said perhaps · more Iivcs can be saved if money is taken out of 1hc highway safely fund and put towards railroads crossings. "We need to ask thusc lypc of tough questions." he said. One person already asking tough question is Debbie Klostcnncicr, who lives ncar lhe northwest Ohio lown of Swanton . . Her daughter and a friend were killed in a 1994 train crossing accident.

(AP) - An experimen!al fungicide is proving effective in · slowing the spread of destructive blue mold throiJgh the tobacco c{ol?· Kentucky farmers obtained an eme!J!ency exemption from the Environmental Protection Agency to use the fungicide Acrobat MZ as a means of controlling the mold, an airborne disease that produces leaf lesions on tobacco plants. "It is working and doing a gOO!I job," said Mike Ryan, owner of Ryan's Agri and Pest Supplies. Wilham Nesmith, an extension plant pathologist at the University of Kentucky, said the unusually rainy weather this year improved conditions for blue mold production, but the number of cases is still down. He said prevention with the new Acrobat chemicals and early detection of blue mold will be the keys to stopping the disease this summer. "This disease is very manageable. " Nesmith said . Blue mold can reproduce quickly. It has been spotted in more than 40 Kentucky counties so far, but Nesmith said that number could be as high as 70. The use of Acrobat MZ is one of two reasons this summer has been less troublesome than last summer, when tobacco fam1ers lost more than $88 million. The other reason is that the initial amount of the fungus introduced into Kentucky from transplants from other states was smaller than in previous years, Nesmith said. He cautioned that Acrobat MZ is not ,a wonder drug. The chemical is a preventive measure that can stop strains of blue mold that are resistant to Ridomil, another highly used fungicide. It should be sprayed before the mold is evident. WASHINGTON (AP) - The Agriculture Department has a plan for compensating some growers, grain handlers, storage facility owners and Oour millers damaged by the outbreak of a wheat fungus. The plan, due to take effect July 25, will provide compensation for growers and . handlers of harvested wheat in the quarantined area, regardless of whether the wheat tests positive for the Kamal bunt fungus. The fungus, which reduces the quality and quantity of wheat, was discovered in Arizona in March. USDA imposed a quarantine on shipments from . Arizona, Texas, New Mexico and California; the embargo was lifted in parts of Arizona, Texas and New Mexico this week. WASHINGTON (AP) - The Commodity Credit Corp. will charge interest of 6.75 percent for 1996 cropyear loans disbursed this month, up from 6.625 percent m June.

The 1996 farm bill has made provisions for a 7-year production Oexibility contract, instead of annual acreage reduction programs. There are no set-aside requirements and producers may enroll even if no crops are cunently being raised . Farmers will have only until July · 12 to sign the request to panicipate in this program. Funds have been approved by Congress, and if local eligible producers do not request what is due to them the money will be redistributed to other producers around the country. Producers who are unsure which crops had been reported to the Farm Service Agency, should call their local Farm Service Agency (4468686 or 1-888 211-1626 toll free for Gallia-Lawrence.). There wi II not be a chance after July 12 to take advantage of this program. You may withdraw at anytime, but 1996 is the only time you may enter. Lisa Meadows an4 Jim Herrell are county executive directors of the Gallia -Lawrence Fann Service Agency. '. • • sun.day, July 7, 1~J • lnc:reasing pasture and hay productiOn'! By BUZMILLS GAlLIPOLIS - Wet conditions have persisted in much of the area · through the latter part of June. There are still sever31 aeres of hay that has not been harvested and many of the acres that were cut had reached maturity or had been rained on thus lowering the feeding value. Much can still be done to increase the quantity and quality of hay and pasture har· · vested in the remainder of this year. Having a balanced soil fertility level is the key. · Lime should be the starting point When pH reading are below 6.0 nutrient deficiencies can occur due to acidic soil conditions. Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium may be At adequate levels in the soil, but not available to the plant because of the acidic condition of the soil. pH of 6.06.5 is good for grass crops and most forage legumes, while a pH of 6.5-7.0 is needed for alfalfa. Grasses normally need aboui 40 pounds of a£tual nitrogen to produce a ton of dry hay. This needs to he applied partly in the spring after the crop breioks winter dormancy and a portion later in the growing season. If legumes make up 35X or more of the field then this nitrogen can be produced by the legume. Phosphorus at inadequate sojllevels may not produce the p~(ure or hay tonnage needed for individual producers. Pastures should have a 10ppm-15ppm reading for this nutJ:i· ent, while alfalfa needs a 25ppm reading. For every dry ton of grass or legume hay removed from a field, l2· IS pounds of actual phosphorus is removed from the soil.

Surveys indicate that eyen . as some in Congress have called for a rollback of environmental protections, the public expects more gov· ernment regulation of agricultural practices that can have adverse effects beyond the farm or livestock operation. If anything, spills from the waste lagoons of large hog operations have intensified public demands for agriculture to clean up its environmental act. There's no question that agricul- · ture has an impact on the environment far beyond farms themselves, affecting surface and ground waters, Oood patterns, wildlife habitat and ilir quality. At the same time, i!'s also clear that there's less federal money available to help compensate farmers for meeting wide-ranging stewardship rules, and that agriculture would resist being forced -into compliance programs. Thus, effons to improve agriculture's environmental record should carry relatively low costs and should make both technical and economic sense to the farmers involved. And lhey should result in measurable progress to satisfy environmental concerns. The Henry Wallace Institute for Alternative Agriculture at Beltsville, Md., has undertaken to seek some practical answers, convening a round- GM proposes settl~meht on class action pickup suit table discussion of the issue by 27 faimers, conservationists, government officials, agribusiness executives and farm organization representatives .. A report on the results was wrilten by David Ervin, agricultural economist at Oregon State Universi ty, and by Katherine Smith, d1rector of policy studies at the Wallace Insti tute. They look at the feasibility of installing what's called " whole-farm planning," described as a "holistic management approach to the intc· gration of farming objectives .with agro·cnvironmcntal goals." Ervin and Smith state that production plans taking into account a farm 's natural rcsourc~s - soil, water, trees - -have existed for almost a century. "But there is something new about (whole-farm planning): the explicit accounting of environmental effects that .cross the farm boundary."· They stale that whole-farm planning "ideally starts by assessing all on-farm natural, human and' capital IAWNEY SIUDIO 424 SECOND AV£• OALUPOUS OwN . YOUR resources, and all off-farm cnviro~ mental resources potentially affect~ by farm activities." -:; "This basic information is then used as the basis to develop a . holi~ tic (which emphasizes the functional relationship between parts and t~ whole) plan that integrates produc• tion and environmental manageme()t within the context of each unique farm, responding both to operator goals and to off-farm environmental concerns." Whole-farm planning emphasizci the producer's goals of prolil, ris~ reducJion, natural-nesourc~:s stewardship and quafity of life, Ervin ani! Smith state, while also meeting society's environmental aims.
