State Auditor: former employee owes $6K BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press

Wayne Gates/THE BROWN COUNTY PRESS

The Auditor of State wants Heather Tapp to return almost $6000 to the Brown County Clerk of Courts office. She is a former employee of the Title Office.

The Ohio Auditor of State wants former Brown County Clerk of Courts employee Heather Tapp to pay back almost $6000 to the Brown County Clerk of Courts Office. The findings come just over a year after Tapp was dismissed from her job by

current Clerk of Courts Clark Gray. An audit of the Title Office was conducted for the period of March 29, 2010 to June 6 of 2012, after former Brown County Clerk of Courts Michelle Harris notified the Auditor’s Office and Brown County Sheriff’s Office of possible financial discrepancies in April of 2012.

The following information that was uncovered in the audit was released in a press release from Auditor of State Dave Yost’s office dated July 30. “Former Deputy Clerk Heather Tapp processed vehicle titles and completed blank checks for certain car dealers. For one dealer, Tapp completed 86 checks CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

Motion filed to keep Sheriff’s court case sealed Attorney Gary Rosenhoffer has filed a motion before Common Pleas Judge Scott Gusweiler to stop a move by a Felicity man to unseal the 2003 trial record of Brown County Sheriff Dwayne Wenninger. The “Motion to Strike”, is asking Gusweiler to throw out Podolsky’s request because of “his unauthorized practice of law.” Podolsky is not an attorney. There have been other developments in the case as well. The Post and E-mail, a blog out of Connecticut,is asking to be admitted as a “co-movant” to unseal the record. Attorney Thomas Eagle is

now representing Podolsky and The Post and E-mail. Rosenhoffer has filed a motion to dismiss the request to unseal the record...and Eagle has filed a response in opposition. A hearing on the matter is set for Sept, 6. Podolsky, claiming to be acting as “Prosecutor” in accordance with Ohio Revised Code, filed the motion in Brown County Common Pleas Court on June 12. He is asking Gusweiler to unseal the record from the October 2003 trial where Wenninger was found not guilty of submitting false documents to run for Sheriff in the 2000 election. The court record was sealed by Judge Robert Ringland in 2003 following CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

The owner of the IGA store in Georgetown wants to hear from local residents about what they want in their store when it opens next month. Eric Rabe will be hosting a community meeting in the Gaslight Theater on August 7, at 7 p.m. He’s inviting local residents to tell him what they want and need in what he calls “their store”. “Input from the local community is critical to our success”, Rabe said.

“This is an opportunity for everyone to come out and tell us what they would like to see in their store, whether it’s a particular product or service or any other way they would like us to serve them.” Rabe said he plans on having product samples “and other surprises” for those in attendance. Georgetown Mayor Dale Cahall said he is very pleased that Rabe is reopening the store and bringing back approximately fifty jobs. “ It’s desperately needed in our community. We acknowledge and appreciate Sav-A-Lot being here, but competition is always a benefit to the consumer”, Cahall said. “(Rabe’s) offer to hold a meeting like this in advance of the opening shows me that he is serious about running a top-notch quality grocery store here in Georgetown. He’s taking the desires and needs of the community into consideration before he’s even opened his doors.” Cahall said he’s looking CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

About fifty first responders from Brown County got training last week that could end up saving lives. They were shown what homemade explosive devices look like...and what they can do when they explode. “Seeing what some of these devices can do puts what we might find on a scene somewhere in a whole new light.”, said Brown County Sheriff’s

Office Detective Rick Haney. Members of the FBI, ATF and bomb squads from the city of Dayton and Hamilton and Butler counties conducted the training. Members of the Ohio BCI Clandestine Lab Unit also participated. Haney said the trainers also showed them how to be safer at drug busts. “They actually manufactured methamphetamine in front of us so we could smell it and see what it looked like. We could also

see the chemicals that were used to make it so we could be able to put two and two together if we find them somewhere. I can’t tell you how many meth labs I’ve seen without knowing how volatile those chemicals are and how dangerous they really are.” The trainees first met at Southern Hills Career and Technical Center for some classroom instruction before going to the Rumpke landfill in Georgetown to witness the explosions. Haney said that actually

detonating the explosive devices brought new insight to the trainees. “This training was helpful to all first responders, because they can recognize some of this stuff on sight. Not only that, but they will know how far to get everybody back because they’ve seen what it can do when it explodes.” Dennis Chaney is the investigator for Brown County Prosecuting Attorney Jessica Little.

$40K raised in one night in M.O. BY Martha B. Jacob The Brown County Press It was a big event last Saturday night during the Music in the Park concert in Mt. Orab, as two local organizations donated a total of $40,000 towards the construction of an amphitheater/bandstand in the park. The rain subsided long enough Saturday for more than 300 people to enjoy a concert by Robin Lacy and Dezydeco Band. During the first break in the show, coordinator of the concerts Woody Whittington took the microphone and proudly introduced Mt. Orab Mayor Bruce Lunsford. CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

Hart, professional wrestler. “I’d climb in the ring and give ‘em a nasty look and shake my fist at ‘em like ‘I’m gonna get you’”, she said of her pre-match ritual. Schmidt began her wrestling career at age 17 when she was still in high school at Anderson Township High School.

She said she started wrestling at “a place on William Howard Taft Road”, before she moved up to the Cincinnati Gardens where the Beatles and Rolling Stones would follow her a decade later. When asked if she was a heroine or a villain, she said she was a heroine, but she

didn’t remember the names of any of the villains she battled against. “I wrestled twice a week and I was in five championship matches”, Schmidt said. “I won three of them and they said I was the women’s champion.” Schmidt said that a big championship belt didn’t accompany her win. Since facing another opponent in the ring anytime soon is unlikely, Schmidt detailed her winning strategy. “I’d see ‘em coming at me and I’d jump out of the way at the very last second. Then I’d smack ‘em or kick ‘em in the butt as they went by.” Schmidt said she was spotted as a potential wrestler from her experience in high school. “We had wrestling for girls at our school”, Schmidt said. “I only lost two matches when I was wrestling in school.” Schmidt said that when she was in the ring there was no pre-determined winner. “We were fighting it out”, she said. “Both of us wanted to win and I wanted to make sure I was the one that came out on top.” Schmidt said the purses back in the day weren’t all that big, but it was still a lot of fun. “I really liked it. The crowd would be yelling and everything. It was a lot of fun.” She added that the only

injury she sustained in that three years was a broken finger. Schmidt said she watches wrestling today, but it’s not like it was when she was in the ring. “It’s pretty fake today. We played for money back then, they just play to play, it seems like.” She said her father used to come and watch her wrestle, “but my mom wouldn’t go”. “He liked to watch me up there”, Schmidt said. “It was an experience for both of us.” Schmidt was wrestling during most of the Korean War, and said that soldiers were always in the audience.

“A couple of times I had to put them in their place because they were flirting with me and I wasn’t interested in flirting. I wanted to wrestle.” One man was eventually successful in flirting with Betty, and managed to do what her opponents couldn’t...get her out of the ring. “I really did love wrestling, but my husband didn’t want me to do it anymore, so I quit”, Schmidt said. When asked if he was afraid for her or for himself, Schmidt laughed and said “I think he was afraid for himself. Maybe he thought I would bop him in the nose.”

Ending the Wall Street Tax on Main Street Beer Drinkers With baseball season in full swing, Ohio families hosting friends for an Indians or Reds game may have to pay more for beer and soft drinks – all because Wall Street megabanks have found another way to game the system. At one time, banks were just banks. They made loans and they held checking and savings accounts. But nearly 20 years ago, banks also got into the business of selling insurance and holding securities. We have long moved beyond the days of the local trusts, savings and loans, and community banks. Today, Wall Street megabanks also control commodities that manufacturers depend on to deliver affordable prices to consumers. Banks are not just making small business loans. They own everything from electric power plants, to oil pipelines and tankers. And they even own the warehouses that store aluminum and copper. Simply put, these megabanks by owning too many of the resources our nation needs to operate are putting our markets and financial system at risk. Whether or not you be-

SENATOR SHERROD BROWN lieve that a bank holding your savings account should also be in the business of refining and shipping oil, there is no place for banks to engage in anti-competitive practices. But that’s what is happening today. Wall Street banks are driving up costs on American manufacturers and consumers by hoarding commodities. Recently, Mary Jane Saunders, general counsel at the Beer Institute, the trade association representing American brewers, beer importers and suppliers, explained how the supply – and, less directly, the price – of aluminum affect the cost of beer. Because the warehouses that store aluminum are owned and controlled by Wall Street, brewers and beer importers across the country have been paying higher prices and higher fees for aluminum that is used for production. There are more than 60

breweries and about 1,780 direct brewery jobs throughout Ohio. These breweries are dependent on aluminum for their kegs and cans. Recently, Tim Weiner of MillerCoors, which operates a brewery in Trenton, Ohio testified at a Senate hearing that, “Aluminum users, like MillerCoors, are being forced to wait in some cases over 18 months to take physical delivery due to […] warehouse practices or pay the high physical premium to get aluminum today.” Mr. Weiner estimated that this is costing businesses and consumers $3 billion per year. When banks control both the supply and price, manufacturers and consumers pay the price. It’s not right, and we need to end this Wall Street tax on Main Street beer drinkers. We need to take action, and there are some simple steps to do so. First, the Federal Reserve should issue clear guidance on permissible non-bank activities. It should also consider placing limitations on those that expose banks and taxpayers to undue risk. Next, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission

(CFTC) – which investigates speculative practices – needs to crack down on anticompetitive practices. The CFTC needs to stop the bottleneck that allows the banks – which own the aluminum – to charge higher prices to end users like beer and soft drink makers. Third, Congress needs to the Terminating pass Bailouts for Taxpayer Fairness Act (TBTF), legislation that Senator David Vitter (RLA) and I introduced to stop these behemoths from taking advantage of manufacturers and consumers. Our bill sets forth a plan that would prevent any one financial institution from becoming so risky and overleveraged that it could put our economy on the brink of collapse or trigger the need for a federal bailout. Ohio manufacturers and consumers should not have the price of their gas, beer, soft drinks, or electricity driven up by Wall Street speculators. That’s why I will fight to ensure that Wall Street megabanks will never again monopolize our nation’s wealth or gamble away the American dream.

SENATOR ROB PORTMAN “[E]ngagement is a means, not an end… these measures do not evaluate the usefulness of the engagement because many people post simple remarks, like ‘so nice pic,’ or comments on unrelated topics.” The IG report further elaborated on the absence of a direct correlation between effectively disseminating the State Department’s mission and increasing its number of Facebook fans, stating:· “Many in the [State Department] bureau criticize the advertising campaigns as ‘buying fans’ who may have once clicked on an ad or ‘liked’ a photo but have no real interest in the topic and have never engaged further... • “English-language Facebook pages had garnered more than 2.5 million fans each by mid-March 2013; the number actually engaging with each page was considerably smaller, with just over 2 percent ‘liking,’ sharing, or commenting on any item within the previous week. • “Engagement on each posting varied, and most of that interaction was in the form of ‘likes.’ Many postings had fewer than 100 comments or shares; the most popular ones had several hundred.”

Marriage and tax status Q: I just got married, and am wondering how that might affect my taxes. A: A change in your marital status can affect your taxes. Often, you can benefit from this change by filing your taxes jointly rather than separately. The IRS provides the following tips to help you prepare for your new status as a married person: • It is important that the names and Social Security numbers that you put on your tax return match your Social Security Administration records. If you’ve changed your name, report the change to the SSA. To do that, file Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card. You can get this form on the Social Security Administration website at SSA.gov, by calling 800-772-1213 or by visiting your local SSA office. • If your address has changed, file Form 8822, Change of Address, to notify the IRS. You should also notify the U.S. Postal Service if your address has changed. You can ask to have your mail forwarded online at USPS.com or report the change at your local post office. • If you work, report your name or address change to your employer. This will help to ensure that you receive your Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, after the end of the year. • If you and your spouse

both work, you should check the amount of federal income tax withheld from your pay. Your combined incomes may move you into a higher tax bracket. Use the IRS Withholding Calculator tool at IRS.gov to help you complete a new Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance Certificate. See Publication 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax, for more information. • If you didn’t qualify to itemize deductions before you were married, that may have changed. You and your spouse may save money by itemizing rather than taking the standard deduction on your tax return. You’ll need to use Form 1040 with Schedule A, Itemized Deductions. You can’t use Form 1040A or 1040EZ when you itemize. • If you are married as of Dec. 31, that’s your marital status for the entire year for tax purposes. You and your spouse usually may choose to file your federal income tax return either jointly or separately in any given year. You may want to figure the tax both ways to determine which filing status results in the lowest tax. In CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

U.S. Senator Rob Portman (R-Ohio) today released the following statement in a monthly series highlighting Washington’s wasteful spending during a time of record debt and deficits: A new audit by the U.S. Department of State’s Inspector General (IG) discovered that the Department spent $630,000 persuading 2 million people to “like” its Facebook page. “With Washington running budget deficits of more than $1 trillion – or $10,000 per household – the Administration should not be wasting taxpayer dollars on frivolous items such as attempting to buy Facebook fans,” said Portman. “This is further evidence that our government has grown too big, too sprawling, and far outside of the Constitutional duties the Founders intended. The Obama Administration has no right to demand higher taxes on American workers so long as wasteful spending like this continues. While $630,000 may not be much money in an increasingly out-of-touch Washington, it represents an entire year’s worth of federal income taxes for about 60 families.” While the Facebook advertisements purchased by the State Department were ultimately successful in securing 2 million “likes,” the IG could not determine if this did anything to help the State Department further its goals of enhancing global security and diplomacy. The IG report points out that,

Members of the Georgetown Village Council passed a resolution enforcing temporary relief measures for the general fund during a special July 25 meeting. Those measures include: • eliminate the ability of general fund full-time employees to work overtime unless otherwise approved by the Mayor; • eliminate part-time employees who are paid out of the general fund unless otherwise approved by the mayor of Georgetown; • encourage the Georgetown Police Department to explore the option of creating a volunteer auxiliary force to assist full-time officers in their day-to-day duties and increase safety; • require all general fund expenditures in excess of $1,000 to be brought before council for approval before the expenditure is made unless there are emergency circumstances; • deem it necessary to reduce the staff of the Georgetown Police Department to six full-time positions prior to January 1, 2014. If the positions are not vacated through attrition, a committee will be selected to determine how the process will proceed;

Village administrator, Jeremy Germann sent a letter to all elected officials in the village on July 8 explaining that during the first six months of 2013, the general fund had collected $367,268 in revenue and spent $484,708 in expenditures. The letter explained that the village was required to pull $117,440 from its reserve (which it has) to cover the deficit. The general fund reserve is on pace to be spent by 2015 at current spending rates. During the July 25 meeting Mayor Dale Cahall told council that all communities across the state of Ohio have been witness to drastic cuts. “We are not getting as much from our certificate of deposits,” Cahall stated, “The inheritance tax went away, so those are major things that have decreased our general fund balance. We’re just trying to get a handle on these decreased funds now.” Germann stated that in 2007 the village received $343,000 in interest while in 2013 it had only received about $3,000 in interest. “We are trying to be as efficient as we possibly can with this village’s money,” Germann said. “We’re try-

Bread that Perishes John 6:11: “And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.” Jesus fed about five thousand people with a little boy’s lunch which consisted of 5 small barley loaves and two small fishes. He had told the disciples to have the men sit down on the grass. He took the loaves and the fishes, gave thanks to the Father for them, and then distributed them to His disciples which in turn distributed them to the people. And guess what, the food never ran out! He fed every one of them until they were full and He fed them with the lunch that was only big enough for one small boy. How did He do that? Well, with God all things are possible. Nothing is too hard for God! What ever problem you are facing today, God can solve for you. It might not be in the way you want, but He will solve it His way. We always want to tell God how we want it done, but remember, He is the boss! Remember, Jesus is God the Son and nothing was, and nothing is, too hard for Him to solve. So, not only did He solve the problem of how to feed this crowd, but the meal was so good that the next day they went looking for Him in order to get another meal. However, that evening Jesus and His disciples had crossed over the sea toward Capernaum. Verse 24: “When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.” When they found Him they asked Him how He got there, but instead of answering that question He said: “...Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.” Jesus said: You are not interested in the spiritual things, all you are interested in is your belly. A lot of people have that same problem today; if they didn’t there would not be so much obesity! The restaurants are packed to overflowing on Sundays. There are some restaurants where people are waiting in line to get in. I cannot say the same thing about our churches! And you certainly cannot get what God has for

you in a restaurant. You are not going to get your soul satisfied by stuffing your belly! You must seek God for the spiritual need in your life. Try going to church on Sundays and afterwards go eat; that way you can feed both your soul and your belly! I am not against eating; but there is more to this life than just the physical food that we consume 3 times a day. There is eternal life and where you spend it is very important. That was what Jesus was trying to tell those people. Look at verse 27: “Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.” Back in Genesis God had told man: “In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread...” In the New Testament it says that if you don’t work you don’t eat, but these people thought that if they made Jesus king they wouldn’t have to work to get their food. He would just give it to them. In reality, Jesus was speaking about doing the work of God. In verse 28 they said: “...What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?” Jesus answered them: “...This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.” If you do not believe, do you know what you should do? You should work at believing. In Mark 9:24 the father of the child told Jesus: “...I believe, help thou mine unbelief.” You ought to read your Bible, go to church, and listen to the preaching of God’s word. Romans 11:17 says: “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” It is the most important work that you will ever do! It is that work which will lead you to eternal life with Christ. You need to get to the point where you simply believe God, trust God, and then act on your belief.

Stem Cells - part 1 A common story device in science fiction is the use of a clone; a twin grown in secret that is the exact duplicate of the original. Although it’s used in sci-fi, it’s surprisingly not all that far-fetched. By now everyone is familiar with DNA testing on shows like CSI. The DNA that is present in nearly every cell in our bodies is the same DNA that was in the fertilized egg that grew into who we are now. If we start with that fertilized egg, all the information to make a whole new person is present in the DNA. As that one cell starts to divide and becomes two, then four, then eight and so on, the cells start to specialize. Some cells become skin cells, some bone cells, others become nerve cells. Even though each of these specialized cells has all the information to make a complete human being, most of those instructions are turned off. Most starfish are able to regrow an arm that is lost. Some species of starfish are able to regenerate a whole new starfish from just an arm as long as part of the central disc is attached to the arm. Unlike the starfish, if we cut off a finger it doesn’t grow back. In fact, if you get a cut it will heal, but there will be a scar. A scar is basically a “good enough” repair job. It’s sort of like having your fifth grader make a copy of the Mona Lisa. You will still have a painting of a smiling lady, but that’s about it. A scar does not have the same elasticity as normal skin, it does not have sweat glands, it does not have hair follicles, but it does cover up our insides. The difference between a starfish regrowing arms and human scarring when replacing lost skin is the presence of stem cells. Stem cells are cells that do not have part of their DNA turned off. A stem cell has the potential to become any type of cell in the organism. These stem cells are able to differentiate into all the various structures that make up a starfish arm from the spiny outer surface to the tiny eye that is at the end of each arm. This ability of our stem cells to develop into any type of cell in our body is what makes them the focus of recent research. Scientists tell tantalizing stories of replacing nerves cells to cure Parkinson’s disease, or allowing spinal cord injury patients to walk again. They dream of a day when they can grow a new eye, heart, or other organ. Although I spoke of not being able to regrow a finger because of a lack of stem cells, that doesn’t mean we don’t still have stem cells. Our bone marrow is rife with stem cells which continually reproduce all the different types of blood cells. There are a number of different types of stem cells and the field has their own language to describe where the cells came from, and what they are able to grow into. Next time we’ll look at some of the problems asso-

then our commission received a couple bequeaths from wills, and for what ever reason the money started coming in.” Lodwick explained that 19 counties joined in the efforts to establish the General John Hunt Morgan Heritage Trail along with the Ohio Historical Society and after 12 years, the member’s commission dreams have come true. “It’s been a long time in coming,” Lodwick said, “but this weekend, August 3, at 7:30 p.m. we will have the official dedication.”

Lodwick said that along the 586 miles of the trail that crosses Ohio, 700 trail markers have been erected along with 56 battlefields. He said the signs are about waist high, are 24 inches by 36 inches and are very easy to read. “There is now a marker in front of the courthouse,” Lodwick said. “Morgan and 200 of his men were only in Georgetown for one day, but managed to steal 255 horses from every township in Brown County along with all kinds of other merchandise like silk, shoes and clothing.

eral Morgan had about 2,500 men which he split up and sent in different directions across Ohio. His raid lasted about 13 days but his men were only in Georgetown for one day.” Lodwick explained that Morgan’s Raid was one of the longest movements of troops in military history. Saturday’s event will actually begin at 10 a.m. with a guided car tour beginning at the New Harmony Methodist Church at 1445 New Harmon-Shiloh Road. Stories at seven stops on a route through Georgetown, Ripley and Red Oak

will end in Decatur at 4:30 p.m. An hour lunch break will be held in Georgetown. “The actual dedication ceremony will be at 7:30 in front of the courthouse,” Lodwick said. “There will be music, more stories about events of the raid and a military salute. It will last about an hour and a half and is free to everyone.” Lodwick asked that everyone bring a lawn chair and enjoy the celebration. (In case of rain the event will be moved to the Gaslight Theater).

July 15, 1863 is a date that will be remembered as a day that changed the Village of Georgetown forever. And thanks to the efforts of several determined local residents, that day will never be forgotten. It was when John Hunt Morgan, a Confederate general and cavalry officer in the American Civil War, along with his men, rode their horses over 1,000 miles from Tennessee, up through Kentucky, into Indiana and on to southern Ohio. This weekend, Saturday, August 3, the Brown County chapter of the “Trail Commission” will hold a very special ceremony at the Brown County

Courthouse to dedicate the completion of the John Hunt Morgan Heritage Trail. According to Ned Lodwick, president of the Brown County Historical Society and local historian, the dedication has been a lon time in coming. “Morgan’s Trail, when driven by car is about 600 miles long,” Lodwick explained. “Efforts to place markers along his trail began in 2001 when it was decided by a handful of men to organize the Ohio Trail Commission.” He continued, “Our hope at that time was to have it up and running with markers by 2003, but it turned out to a bit more of an undertaking than we first thought. We struggled to raise money for the purchase of the markers, but

Comment period open for culvert replacement As part of the Ohio Department of Transportation – District 9’s Planning & Engineering Department, the district’s Environmental Office is seeking public input on the following proposed project in Brown County. Brown County – BRO50-7.98 (PID: 91937) – The proposed project is to replace two culverts over Murray Run on U.S. Route 50 in Perry Township, Brown County. The first culvert, located at the 8.00-mile marker, will be a 4x5-foot, precast concrete box culvert with full-height wing walls. The culvert will be placed on a new alignment, requiring 140 feet of the upper tributary of Murray Run to be relocated. The second culvert, located at the 8.03-mile marker, is a

72-inch corrugated metal pipe, and the new structure will be an 8x5-foot, precast concrete box culvert with full-height wing walls. The entire project will need approximately 1.726 acres of permanent right of way, which is located in mowed residential lawns and abandoned railroad line. However, no homes or businesses will be removed by the project. Additional information regarding this project, including a complete description, maps and plans sheets, is available online at http://www.dot.state.oh.us /districts/D09/Pages/Public-InvolvementProcess.aspx. Issues the public may wish to comment on include the effect on local residents, air

quality, the local economy, and historic or cultural resources. Written comments should be submitted by August 6, 2013, or the deadline date that is posted on the web site, to:

Greg Manson, ODOT District 9 Environmental Supervisor P.O. Box 467; 650 Eastern Avenue, Chillicothe, Ohio 456701 E-Mail: greg.manson@dot.state.oh.us

with amounts higher than what was required. These checks, meant for payments of title fees and sales tax, included overpayments ranging from $4 to $366 and totaled $5,921. A finding for recovery was issued against Tapp in this amount in favor of the Brown County Clerk of Courts.

On July 20, 2012, Tapp was terminated from her position with the Brown County Clerk of Courts – Title Division. The findings in this audit have been forwarded to the Brown County Prosecutor. Assistant Auditor of State Legal Counsel Robert Smith has been appointed special prosecutor in the case.”

Gray said that he made changes immediately after taking office that will prevent the same sort of activity from happening again. “We stopped accepting blank checks from dealers as soon as this investigation began in June of last year. At this point, it is up to the dealers to ensure that they are submitting checks to us that are in the proper

amount.”, Gray said. He added that a closer watch was also being kept on any payments that come into the Title Office. “We are also separating tender type received, in other words if someone paid with a combination of cash and a check, we would mark down the whole amount. Now, if someone splits the way

they pay, they are given two receipts that reflect both amounts of cash received by us.” Gray said he was glad that the audit was complete, but added that the recovery funds recommended by the Auditor’s Office were not the only expenses incurred over the past year. “This has been a long in-

vestigation and it has cost the county a considerable bit of money. I would like the cost of this audit to be included as restitution as part of this case when it finally goes to court.”, Gray said. If Smith decided to file charges against Tapp, they would be filed in Brown County Common Pleas Court.

sealed records that sealed records “shall not be available to any person”, except for the person who is the subject of the record or someone they name in an application to unseal it, a law enforcement officer involved in the case to defend themselves in a civil case or a prosecuting attorney to determine a defendant's eligibility to enter a pre-trial diversion program. Gusweiler denied a motion by Dennis Varnau to unseal the record on similar grounds in 2009. Rosenhoffer also points out that “Plaintiff(s) claims have been conclusively resolved by two courts...as such, Plaintiff’s claim is moot.” The Ohio 12th District Court of Appeals and Ohio Supreme Court have ruled on the case in favor of Wenninger. Podolsky’s original motion was filed in the criminal division of the common pleas court because the original case against Wenninger was a criminal case. For Podolsky’s motion to be considered, Gusweiler must decide if it was properly filed and if Podolsky is qualified to file it. Podolsky asked Little in April of this year to file a taxpayer lawsuit to recover the money paid to Wen-

the trial. Podolsky’s argument is that Wenninger is unqualified and taxpayers are being defrauded by paying for his salary. He is also arguing that the sealing of the court record by Ringland was improper. Brown County Prosecuting Attorney Jessica Little said that she does not think that Podolsky has legal standing to act as “Prosecutor” in this case. “He has not filed a taxpayer lawsuit. He has filed a motion in a criminal case.” Little said. “To represent the state of Ohio in a criminal case, you need to be a Prosecutor or Special Prosecutor, and he is neither one of those.” Little said that a taxpayer lawsuit would proceed as a civil case. She has asked Gusweiler to appoint Special Prosecutor is Kenneth Porter from Wheelersburg, Ohio to represent the State as the Podolsky motion moves forward. By law, Little represents the Sheriff in legal matters in her capacity as Prosecuting Attorney and she said she does not wish to create a conflict.

Responders get training CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 job, he was the Commander of the Dayton Police Department Bomb Squad. Chaney said he decided to bring the training to Brown County after discovering that similar training had never been offered in the area. “It’s a safety issue, not just for the people responding but for anyone in the area. You never know when you are going to come across something dangerous.”, Chaney said. “They could be on a call for an unrelated reason and see something dangerous or the makings of something dangerous. That knowledge is important for the safety of everyone involved.” Chaney said the message he wanted those attending the training to take away was...make a call if you think you need to. “In this day and age,

there is no reason to take chances when you have the resources that are available. That’s what bomb squad guys live for...to come out and make sure that there isn’t a danger to anyone.” Chaney said that many people think that bombs and other explosives are a “big city” problem...but rural areas have their own dangers. “There are some explosive materials that are more readily available in a rural environment, and first responders need to be aware of that. Farmers used to be able to buy dynamite at the local hardware store. If that stuff sits in a barn for years and deteriorates, it can blow up if you jostle the box just a little.” Chaney said that if someone sees something they think might be dangerous, leave the area and pick up the phone. “If someone is cleaning out a barn or shed and they see something they don’t

ninger, but she refused to do so. In a response to Podolsky, Little said that there is no legal basis to challenge Wenninger’s current term of office by alleging he was not qualified to serve in 2000 or 2004. Little wrote in her letter to Podolsky that “Under Ohio law, one who assumes public office, even if he is held later to be ineligible to hold office, or if his appointment is later held invalid is a de facto officer...Sheriff Wenninger’s salary was paid to him in good faith, under color of law for services actually rendered. Accordingly, there is no legal basis to recover any public funds paid to Sheriff Wenninger, for his present salary or for expired terms. Eagle argues in the memorandum opposing dismissal of the motion that ORC allows a taxpayer requesting that a taxpayer lawsuit can file “any suit or institute any such proceedings to do so.” Podolsky said in the June 21 edition in the Brown County Press that if his motion is denied by Gusweiler, he will appeal the ruling directly to the Ohio Supreme Court. Wenninger continues to have no comment on the effort.

forward to next month when the doors are expected to open. “I can’t wait until he opens the store and I wish him a very successful tenure as a business owner in the village of Georgetown.” Rabe said that the store will be open for business in mid to late August. In an interview with the Press last week, Rabe talked about some of the plans he has for the store. “We will have a very high

quality perishable department and all the meat will be cut fresh daily in the store, not prepackaged. We will also have a full service deli and bakery with doughnuts made fresh daily right in the store.” Rabe said setup will begin at the store on August 12 and take approximately two weeks. He also operates IGA stores in Vevay and Versailles Indiana. The Georgetown store will be his third, and a fourth store is planned for Ross, Ohio.

recognize, that might be dynamite or blasting caps, they need to leave it alone and call law enforcement.” Haney and Chaney both expressed thanks to all the agencies that provided the training, as well as appreciation to Southern Hills, Rumpke and to D&S Auto, which donated props for demolition, including a vehicle.

Lunsford thanked the gentlemen for their donation and told the crowd that with the port authorities donation, the village was a little closer to meeting its goal.

Orab, walked up on the stage along with 11 lodge members. introduced Lunsford Clifton to the audience, who stated that the Masons also had a donation to make towards the construction of a new bandstand. “Tonight the New Harmony Masonic Lodge 435 would like to offer a $30,000 donation to the village,” Clifton said. “This donation was made by the late Evelyn “Schafro” Reynolds in memory of her parents, the late Joseph and Amanda Schafro. “When Evelyn Schafro died, she had it in her will that she wanted to do this in her parents memory.

the Masons his entire life. She wanted the money to go for something that would benefit this community, and we feel like this new amphitheater is the perfect event because it’s free to the public.” Lunsford accepted the check from $30,000 Clifton and told the crowd that it put the campaign over the top on what it needed to build the new bandstand. “Who would have thought we could raise $50,000 in only a year,” Lunsford said with a big smile. “Monday morning, before 10 a.m. we will order the new amphitheater which has already been designed. “The last free concert this year will be held on September 14, and on September 16, the footers will go in for the new bandstand.” Lunsford graciously thanked everyone for all their help in raising the money needed for the construction of the new bandstand/amphitheater. The applause could be heard all over Mt. Orab as the Masonic Lodge members left the stage.

The fair book really looks nice this year. The front cover is one of the best in my opinion. Between it and our website you should find anything you need to prepare for this year’s Brown County Fair. One mistake that Bob Hardyman our Entertainment director found is on page 93. The Central Ohio Band was a mistake it should be Elvis - A tribute to the King JO-EL. I always enjoy looking at The Big Story of the Little State Fair by Al and Patty Rhonemus. The Fair books are mentioned from the early 1900’s with ads like Bare Bros. & Sirabry – Breeders of Shorthorn Cattle, A.K. Rotroff Dealer on Men’s and Boy’s Clothing, and the Citizens Bank-Higginsport. Around 1925 or 1926 the fair book first started mentioning the Little State Fair. In 1939 the fair book cover first stated it as the Little State Fair and has been called that ever since. This is my favorite time of year. I’m getting my first tomatoes and finding cucumbers hiding under their big leaves. Our friends Vern and Joy Creighton are having a farmer’s market every Saturday morning at their Indian Spring Winery. I know Georgetown had one last year and I’m sure they will again. Just about every exit off the highways has fresh produce ready for you. A couple on Delhi-Arnheim Road near Arnheim is selling sweet corn for $2.00 a dozen if you pick it. I’m looking forward to the fair so we can look over the Floral Hall with all the best produce of Brown County. This is just another example of our theme this year about enjoying The Brown County Fair – A County Reunion. By the time you read this the Ohio State Fair will be history. I’m looking forward to seeing how the Brown County Junior Fair kids did

at the State Level. Adams County Fair is over and Clermont too. If you get a chance to go to the Antique Machinery Show please enjoy the history of farming here and watching old fashion ways of living. I might add that the Fayetteville Knights of Columbus will have their Pork Tenderloin Sandwiches serving each day. I enjoy walking through the booths and looking for hats and other hard to find items that you can’t do without. The Highland County Fair is always the first week of September. They sponsor a rodeo from an Indiana group that puts on a great show. This is our chance to see Stormy Barricklow and his family each year. Stormy is the son of Roger and Juanita Barricklow and lived next door to us. Cord will be off to college this year but Strand will compete for the family. Many friends and relatives will be there and if you get a chance visit the Highland County

Gospel singing, free pig roast set for August The Mt. Holly Christian Chapel Church has revised their Christian Country Gospel Singing to be held on the third Friday of the month.

Fair. Highland County Fair has one of the best fish sandwiches you ever ate and it’s another good reason to visit. One of the things that I’ve enjoyed is working with Don Bowles from C103 radio. He enjoys giving a lot of attention to our fair and the fair’s around us. He puts his old fire engine in the parade and his people will be there all week interviewing fairgoers, Junior Fair winners, and civic groups. Years ago I use to talk to Ted Foster and now its Brad Rolfe, Rosie Young, and Matt Hilldebrand. The week before the fair at 10 a.m. we will do some pre-advertising on C-103.

Brown County’s Little State Fair right around the corner

The Brown County Press - Sunday, August 4, 2013 - Page 15

BY Martha B. Jacob The Brown County Press This year marks the seventh year in a row for the “Back-2-School Bazaar” which will be held in the parking lot of Rent-2-Own in Georgetown. The 2013 bazaar will be held Saturday, August 10 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Shona Vance, General Manager of the Georgetown Rent-2-Own, created the Back-2-School Bazaar over seven years ago. “I have three children,” Vance said, “and I know first hand just how hard it is to buy school supplies for them every August. I remember dreading to see August roll around, school clothes, shoes, supplies, it was overwhelming.” Vance explained that she wanted to do something to help other parents facing the same problems. The first year she had the bazaar it was held at Georgetown High School and about 75 children from the community participated. “That first year we were organizing,” Vance continued, “Cashland joined in and they were really great in helping organize the event. That very next year, we had 150 kids attend, the next year 300 kids attended and then last year, we had over 1,100 kids participate. “We are really looking forward to this year’s bazaar, we would be thrilled to entertain 2,000 kids, we’re ready for it.” Vance said the everything at the bazaar is there to benefit children of all ages, and everything at the bazaar is free. Kids who attend the bazaar will be treated to many free activities including free: • school supplies; • raffle; • refreshments including snow cones, popcorn, hot dogs, chips, cookies and drinks; • giant inflatable play equipment; • games of all kinds; • fun, fun, fun. “This year the Back-2School Bazaar will also be offering free hair cuts to children,” Vance added.

Wild and Crazy Night at Moler Raceway In the late model division it was newcomer Jason Smith from Seymour,Indiana winning heat race #1with another firsttimer Larry Martin Jr from Vanceburg,KY coming in second spot. In the second heat it was another newcomer Todd Brennan from Zanesville, Ohio taking the win with Ethan Burgess of Cincinnati coming home in second spot. In the feature Brennan was unable to start meaning Smith and Burgess would lead the field to the green flag. Smith would jump to the lead with Burgess in second spot but the caution would come out on lap 2 when John Church would go through the infield and kick the orange starting cone onto the racetrack. In the restart it was once again Smith out front but the excitement was watching John Whitney (started 5th) and Chad Stapleton 7th) charge (started through the pack. By lap 7

they had worked to 3rd and 4th respectively and by lap 10 they would get around Burgess and start closing the gap on the leader. With 8 laps to go Stapleton would get around Whitney and begin the charge towards Smith whose lead was a full straightaway. With 2 laps to go Stapleton would catch Smith and stick his nose up under him in turn 2 but Smith was able to pull away and claim his first ever LM win at MRP in his Lees Tire 4X4, Smith’s Forklift, King’s Trucking sponsored machine. Stapleton would come home second with Whitney, Burgess, and Roger Ruark rounding out top five positions. In the UMP Modifieds it was a nice field of cars on hand with several new driver’s on the season. In heat race #1 it was Jimmy Stricker from Batavia, Ohio taking the win over John “Weasel” Rhodes from Winchester, Ohio. IN

heat race #2 it was Aurora, Indiana’s Matt Hamilton taking the win over Perryville, Indiana’s Dave Baldwin. In the feature event it was Hamilton jumping to the lead with Stricker right there with him but on lap #2 Stricker would spin off of turn four and Weasel Rhodes would make hard contact with him ending the night for both drivers. On the restart it was once again Hamilton out front with Shane Mugavin in second spot with Baldwin and Jeremie Bretz battling closely. Things got crazy on lap 11 as the front stretch lights went out bringing out an extended red flag. Once racing again Hamilton would cruise to his third victory of the season in his Lightning Chassis, OTS, Sign-a-rama, JTS Enterprises sponsored machine despite having to take evasive action when a lap car spun in front of him with two laps to go. Baldwin would claim second spot with Jimmy Lennex, Jeremie Bretz and Larry Pickelheimer Jr. completing the top five. As always the Chevette division provided plenty of excitement all the way to the checkered flag. As with last week it was Rusty Yarger out front with Miles Tarvin in pursuit and similar to last week the longer the race went the faster Tarvin got. Things would get interesting for the leaders as a slower car blew an engine entering turn #1 directly in front of the two lead cars and covering the race track in fluid. Both leaders would go spinning but the caution had already been waved as that incident happened. On the restart Tarvin was able to drive around Yarger with two laps to go but on the final lap caution would have to be waved again as two cars crashed directly in the path of the leaders. With a 1 lap shootout on tap it was Tarvin leading Yarger to the green but 3rd place running Spensor Watson would want a piece of the action and bonzai into the mix causing a 3 wide 1 lap shootout to the finish. As they crossed the line it was Yarger by a few inches over Tarvin and Watson (who was then penalized 2 spots for jumping the start). Steven Pursley would officially be 3rd following the penalty with Kyle Tarvin, and Boog Verdon rounding

SSCC Basic Peace Officers complete training The cadets of Southern State Community College’s Basic Peace Officers Training Program were recognized at a special ceremony held July 11 at the college’s Fayette Campus in Washington Court House. Sixteen cadets were recognized for completing the six-month program which covers the fundamentals of entry-level peace officer training and includes courses in laws, administrative functions, firearms, human relations, criminal investigations, traffic accident investigations, traffic enforcement, patrols, civil disorders and prisoner bookings. Students earn 24 college credit hours which may be applied to the law enforcement associate degree program at Southern State. The new cadets join approximately 256 cadets before them since the program started in 1997. Students who completed the training program include Dewey E. Allen, Tyler D. Alsop, Jessy M. Brady, Treg A. Brown, Justin K. Burns, Dustin P. Gordon, Byron G. Gustin, Ethan L. Johnson, Michael D. Metzger, Nayan Patel, Miguel A. Penwell, Traci N. Price, Chessie L. Ratliff, Donald J. Smith, Traevon L. Williams, and Shane O. Young. “I’m grateful to each of you for sticking with this program,” said Dr. Kevin Boys, SSCC President, who provided the opening remarks. “I’m equally appreciative you’ve chosen this challenging line of

work making a valuable contribution to making our community a safer place to live.” “I have a lot of faith in every one of you,” said guest speaker Chief Nicholas L. Thompson of the Hillsboro Police Department. “As a police officer, you’re going to meet a lot of people. You’ll meet some of the best, but other days you’ll wonder why you got into this line of work. Keep your head up, and when a kindergartener walks up to you and tells you he wants to be a police officer, it will put it all back into perspective.” Following the opening speeches, Commander Robin A. Roche presented the Basic Peace Officer Training Academy awards. Perfect attendance awards were presented to Dewey E. Allen, Jessy M. Brady, Treg A. Brown, Byron G. Gustin, Chessie J. Ratliff, and Donald J. Smith. Awards for demonstrating outstanding leadership and teamwork were presented to Jessy M. Brady, Chessie J. Ratliff, and Donald J. Smith. An award for outstanding academic performance was awarded to Dewey E. Allen. In recognition of outstanding psychological survival fortitude, Justin K. Burns was presented the Fighting Spirit Award, in memory of Sgt. Tim Fryer. In recognition of outstanding handgun performance, Traevon L. Williams was presented

the Top Gun Award, in memory of Deputy Harry Smithson. In recognition of maintaining outstanding physical condition, Dewey E. Allen was presented the Physical Fitness Award, in memory of Davide A. Soprano. Students in this year’s class broke two academy records in physical fitness; during state testing, Dewey E. Allen obtained a new academy record by completing 62 pushups in one minute, and Nayan D. Patel obtained a new academy record by completing 64 situps in one minute. “We made it!” exclaimed Cadet Donald J. Smith who was invited to provide the student remarks. “It’s difficult to summarize our entire sixmonth journey. But we’re finally here. Our dreams are now realized through hard work and determination. Congratulations!” Most coursework for the training program takes place at Southern State’s Fayette Campus in Washington C.H. Instructors are recruited from various state, county and local law enforcement and corrections agencies.

August should be better than normal for forages Downy Mildew Alert I received word Friday night that Downy Mildew has been confirmed in Kentucky. With the forecast for rain on Wednesday, this could be a problem for growers who produce squash, cucumbers and pumpkins. A preventative fungicide is recommended. The Downy Mildew was found on cucumbers just south of Lexington. August is a Good Time to Plant Forages August is normally a good time to establish forages. This August may be even better than normal because we have had plenty of moisture to this point in Southern Ohio. The following is part of a article that appeared in the CORN newsletter this week written by Rory Lewandowski and Mark Sulc from OSU Extension. The entire article can be found by going to corn.osu.edu Rain and wet soil conditions condensed the spring planting season this year and some planned alfalfa plantings got moved to the back burner. August provides another window of opportunity to establish a perennial forage stand and it fits nicely into rotations after wheat grain harvest. Typically the main risk with an August planting is a question of sufficient moisture for seed germination and plant growth. This year if soil moisture is a concern, it is from the standpoint of too much rather than too little moisture. There are some advantages to late summer for-

DAVID DUGAN OSU EXTENSION SERVING ADAMS, BROWN AND HIGHLAND CO. age planting as compared to a spring planting. One big plus is that planting time and field preparation is not competing with corn and soybean field work. No-till planting following a small grain crop often works well. Late summer planting means forage seedlings are not competing with the flush of annual spring and summer weed emergence/growth. The soil borne root rot and damping off disease organisms that thrive in cool, wet soils are not an issue. However, late summer forage planting has some other risks that must be managed. Ideally, planting should be completed by mid-August in Northern Ohio and by the end of August in Southern Ohio. These timelines are based on average frost dates and the time needed for forage plants to develop a root system capable of overwintering. For example, at about 8 to 10 weeks after emergence alfalfa plants pull the growing point below the soil surface, a process is called ‘contractile growth’. Once contractile growth occurs the alfalfa plant is considered a true perennial. The alfalfa plant needs to reach this growth stage to overwinter. Clover plants also need to have a crown formed, and

grasses should be at least in the tillering stage of development before the onset of winter. If the fall is warm and extended, similar to what we have experienced the past few years, it might be possible for successful establishment with later planting dates. Some alfalfa growers believe that the late summer planting deadline dates can be moved back by several weeks due to climate change. But who can predict the weather? How lucky do you feel? Tobacco Field Night I would like to remind tobacco producers that we will have a twilight tobacco field night on August 20 starting at 5:00 p.m. in the West Union area. The tour will include Dr. Kenny Seebold, UK Tobacco Specialist and some local farms. We will look at a new variety, some fungicide and insecticide performance on this year’s crop. Please call the local OSU Extension Office so we know how many to plan for. We will have a meal at the conclusion sponsored by one of the chemical companies that produces one of the products that we will be looking at that night. The Adams Co. Office number is 937-544-2339; Brown Co. 378-6716; and Highland Co. 393-1918. Please call prior to the end of the day on August 16. Details about the location that we will meet will be given when you call in to register. Soybean Field Night Mark your calendar for September 12 for the Soy-

Early Childhood Education, and Human Services, which includes the Community Healthworker and the Social Work Assistant programs. Financial aid is available for eligible students, and there’s still time to apply. Eligibility is determined by completing the Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) form.

The Brown County Press - Sunday, August 4, 2013 - Page 23

The Area Agency on Aging District 7, Inc. (AAA7) provides a number of services that give older adults and those with disabilities the option of inhome and community-based longterm care programs that allow them to remain independent in their own homes. Part of the AAA7’s mission is also keeping citizens informed of programs that support safe and independent living for citizens in the 10 counties served by the AAA7 which includes Adams, Brown, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Pike, Ross, Scioto and Vinton. The AAA7 wishes to pass along to the community information from The Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) and the Office of the Ohio Consumers’ Counsel (OCC). These two organizations are reminding low-income families that they can stay connected to local resources and emergency services through telephone assistance programs. Lifeline Assistance programs make basic local telephone service more affordable for income-eligible families across Ohio. Those who qualify could receive discounts for monthly telephone bills and/or installation costs of telephone service. You may qualify for Lifeline if your household income is at or below 150 percent of the federal poverty guidelines. To locate the Federal Poverty Guidelines for 2013, log on to www.familiesusa.org/resources/tools-for-advo-

Federal Poverty Guidelines at 150 percent for 2013 include: household of one $17,235; household of two - $23,265; household of three - $29,295; household of four - $35,325. Log on to the link mentioned earlier at www.familiesusa.org to locate larger household guidelines. You may also qualify for Lifeline if you participate in one of the following programs: Medicaid, food stamps, general/disability assistance, supplemental security income (SSI), SSI-Blind and Disabled (SSDI), Public Housing Assistance/Section 8, TANF/Ohio Works First, National School Free Lunch Program, or Home Energy Assistance Program. A Lifeline eligibility pre-screening tool is available at www.lifelinesupport.org. Lifeline benefits may be applied to only one type of service – landline or wireless – and are limited to one line per household. An individual is only allowed to enroll in Lifeline once at the same address during a 12-month period. Customers receiving Lifeline benefits must also re-verify their eligibility annually. Other restrictions may apply. Eligible low-income receive a customers

monthly discount on basic local landline telephone service, waiver of installation charges, waiver of deposit fees, optional toll blocking at no charge, and optional 900/976 blocking at no charge.

You can't see it in the Pictures....... the feeling of beauty, peacefulness, and relaxation. A sprawling deck overlooking a peaceful creek as waterfowl swim by, the occasional deer and turkey in the yard. But above all.... it's the absence of noise that is really endearing. When you leave you can't wait to return. You turn off the major highway onto a township road a short distance to your driveway, past the rustic wood sided 30X30 insulated pole barn with concrete floor, 220 elec., and city water, and continue on to the 2 BR Replica Cottage turn off the car and hope you never have to leave again.

called with the same question, “Why aren’t my tomatoes ripening?” I reminded them that temperature plays a very important part in the ripening process. Lycopene, the pigment that gives ripe tomatoes their red color, is only produced at ambient temperatures of between 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The optimum temperature for lycopene productions is 68 – 77 degrees F. Any great deviation from these temperature ranges will mean that tomatoes won’t turn red. Be patient! Some gardeners pick tomatoes in the pink stage and let them ripen indoors in temperatures. cooler Tomatoes need warmth, not light, to ripen, so there’s no need to put them in direct sunlight. Place them out of direct sunlight where the temperature is 65 – 70 degrees F. If you choose to start a preventative fungicide spraying program, be sure

Another Tomato Late Blight outbreak was found in a different part of Wayne County, Ohio on July 22! Growers are urged to maintain an effective fungicide program on tomatoes and potatoes. This should continue as long as rainy conditions, high humidity and/or heavy dews are expected. It is very important to stay ahead of this disease, as it cannot be controlled once it is well established in a field. Home gardeners should consider spraying tomatoes and potatoes with a fungicide containing chlorothalonil. Diseased tissue should be removed from the garden in a trash bag and placed in a trash can or dumpster for removal. Are you starting to see some changes in your tomato plant’s leaves? Remember that many of these leaf spot diseases

symptoms eventually form a bull’s-eye appearance and cause leaf defoliation. An OSUE Fact Sheet on “Early Blight of Potato and Tomato” (HYG-3101-95) can be found at ohioline.osu.edu. Bacterial Spot and Bacterial Speck are two bacterial diseases of tomato and are difficult to differentiate between without doing bacterial cultures to determine the Genus. Management is the same for both diseases, but bacterial spot can be the most severe between the two. Theses diseases both start as small, dark, greasy or water soaked lesions with yellow halos on the leaves. Bacterial spot can cause moderate to severe defoliation, blossom blight, and lesions on developing fruit. An OSUE Fact Sheet on “Bacterial Spot, Speck, and Canker of Tomato” (HYG-312096) can be found at ohioline.osu.edu. This past week several of my gardening friends
