MFD Responds to Shed Fire

Man Arrested for Kicking Glass out of OSPPatrol Car Manchester Police Officer Jason Hanson initiated a traffic stop in the early Saturday morning hours, May 18, on Jack Roush Way. Officer Hanson was joined by Deputy Randy Walters and Trooper Amanda Thompson during the field interview of the subject. After a short interview the subject was identified as Harry Bobby Harris, 44, of Manchester. It was discovered during the traffic stop that Harris had priors and Trooper Thompson then took the lead of the traffic stop. Harris was placed under arrest by the officers on scene and placed in Trooper Thompson's Patrol Car. Officers were finishing the process of the traffic stop when Harris became angry and kicked the glass out of the Trooper Car. Harris was transported to the Adams

Harris County Jail and logged. He is being charged now for Vandalism of Government property in addition to his OVI charge. Harris announced his candidacy to be a Write-in Candidate for the Manchester Village Council last week.

AC Home of OSP Sub-post The Ohio State Highway Patrol that it will open a sub-post in Adams County to better serve the motorists and residents in the area. The Georgetown Post, which is located in Brown County, but also provides patrol services for Adams County. The OSP will began operating from an office located in the Adams County Regional Medical Center, located at 230 Medical Center Drive in Seaman, on Monday, May 20. Troopers working in Adams County can use the sub-post to meet with the public in order to complete crash reports, enter case investigations into the computer system and process evidence, with no additional costs. “A sub-post in Adams County will allow the Georgetown Post to provide a more consistent level of service to the residents of Adams County,” said Lt. McElfresh, Georgetown Post Commander. “The establishment of this enhanced presence in the county is another way in which the Ohio State Highway Patrol is contributing to a safer Ohio.”

In 1933, the first Ohio State Highway Patrol class graduated and was assigned to six districts across the state, with each district having three substations. These substations were initially located in private residences. The last major organizational change to the structure of the Patrol occurred in 1953. In January 2012, a plan was outlined to reorganize the Patrol’s structure to continue providing a high level of service at a reduced cost. By January, the Patrol will have completed the reorganization from ten districts to eight. Headquarters for the eight districts will be in Findlay, Bucyrus, Warren, Piqua, Columbus, Cambridge, Wilmington and Jackson. As part of the reorganization, plans are to establish sub-posts in the 31 resident counties that do not have stand-alone posts to ensure appropriate traffic safety services and coverage in all of Ohio’s 88 counties. Area motorists and residents in need of Patrol services should contact the Georgetown Post at (937) 378-6191.

Rep. Wenstrup Calls forConstituents to Share IRS Targeting Details Friday, May 24, as the House Ways and Means Committee begans oversight hearings to investigate political targeting at the IRS, Representative Brad Wenstrup calls for any relevant and related information from constituents of the 2nd District. Wenstrup’s office is actively collecting any and all information directly related to IRS misconduct from constituents. “Nobody is above the law, and everybody must be equal under the law. I find it unconscionable that the IRS was targeting Ohioans for their political persuasions. IRS practices led to one constituent being singled out by name in agent questions to unrelated 501(c)(4) applicants. It is a chilling reality that IRS agents were targeting private citizens to suppress and delay the unrestrained exercise of free speech,” Wenstrup said. Southwestern Ohio has been ground zero for many of the allegations that have come forward in recent days. IRS documents reveal that the agency specifically asked 501(c)(4) applicant groups about their relationship with Mr. Justin Binik-Thomas, a 2nd District constituent. The House Ways and Means Committee and the House Oversight and Government

Reform Committee are conducting investigations of the IRS’s conduct regarding 501(c)(4) groups. “I call on any of my constituents who have information that may help the House investigation, whether as an IRS employee in Cincinnati or a 501(c)(4) applicant, to sub-

mit details to my office so that I can get it in the hands of the House investigators. It is incredibly important that the Congress has complete and accurate information about what happened, who was involved, and how far up the chain of responsibility this goes,” continued Wenstrup. Wenstrup encourages constituents to submit information they may have at his website if they are; (i) An IRS employee and a resident of the Second District of Ohio who wishes to share specific information about the political targeting that has taken place or,

(ii) A resident of the Second District of Ohio who has specific information about a 501(c)(4) group that was targeted by the IRS for political reasons Wenstrup will provide information directly to the investigating committees for their review and potential follow-up.

Adjustments Proposed to Ohio Deer Hunting Opportunities The Ohio Wildlife Council will consider whitetailed deer hunting proposals on Wednesday, May 15, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR). The following are adjustments to the proposals that were voted on and approved during the April 17 Ohio Wildlife Council meeting. These proposals address public input requesting an increase in recreational opportunities. The Ohio Wildlife Council will consider rescheduling two days of deer-gun hunting on Jan. 3-4, 2014. Deer can be pursued with all legal hunting equipment, including shotgun, handgun,

muzzleloader and bow from one half-hour before sunrise to one half-hour after sunset. The statewide muzzleloader season is Jan. 5-7, 2014. “We are proposing to add a day to the existing muzzleloader season, for a total of five days of January gun hunting,” said ODNR Division of Wildlife Chief Scott Zody. “The first two days will be open to all legal firearms, while the last three days will be restricted to muzzleloaders.” The Ohio Wildlife Council will also consider a proposal to adjust the bag limits in Hocking, Perry and Ross counties to four deer. The bag limit in these counties was initially proposed as three deer.

The council meeting will be held at the ODNR Division of Wildlife’s District One office, 1500 Dublin Road, Columbus, Ohio 43215. This meeting is open to the public and comments on the proposed rules will be accepted. Individuals who want to provide comments to the council must preregister at least two days prior by calling 614-265-6304. The deadline to preregister will be 5 p.m. on Monday, May 13. All comments are required to be three minutes or less. Emailed or written comments will not be presented at this meeting, but will continue to be an important mechanism for input in regularly scheduled wildlife open houses.

May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month May is National Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month and the Patrol would like to remind motorists that there will be an increase in motorcycles on the roadways with the warmer weather and to remind motorcyclists to ride endorsed, trained and sober. From 2010 – 2012 motorcycle-involved crashes resulted in 509 fatalities and more than 11,480 injuries in the state of Ohio. In 2012 alone there were 165 motorcycle-related fatalities. Of the 165 fatalities, the motorcyclist was at fault 71 percent of the time. Taking a training class and riding with proper endorsements as a motorcycle rider can help protect yourself and others from injury or even death. Out of the 8,571 citations the Patrol handed out to motorcyclists in 2010 – 2012, 20 percent were for operating a motorcycle without a proper license or endorsement. As a rider, simple things like ensuring you have a valid motorcycle endorsement, receiving quality motorcycle training and wearing proper safety equipment can be key elements in staying safe. For more information visit http://www.motorcycle.ohio.gov/. Riding sober is also very important. From 2010 – 2012, 50 percent of the fatal motorcycle crashes involved an impaired motorcyclist. Of course, motorcycle safety is not solely the responsibility of motorcyclists. Motor vehicle

drivers share in this important effort by being aware of motorcyclists. There are some important steps to become more aware of motorcyclists: * A motorcycle is a motor vehicle with all of the privileges of any vehicle on the roadway. * Give motorcyclists a full lane of travel. * Look for motorcyclists on the highway, at intersections, and any time you are changing lanes. * Allow plenty of space in front of the vehicle you are driving and do not follow a motorcycle too closely. Ohio Crashes * There were 165 motorcycle-related fatalities in Ohio in 2012, 5 fewer than the 170 killed in 2011. This amounts to a drop of 3%. Just 5 years ago, in 2008, 215 people died in motorcycle-related crashes. * From 2010 to 2012, motorcycleinvolved crashes resulted in a total of 509 fatalities and 11,480 injuries statewide. * From 2010-2012, motorcycle drivers were at-fault in 54% of all motorcycle-related crashes. For fatal crashes, the number rose to 71%. In 48% of motorcycle-related fatal crashes, the motorcycle was the only vehicle involve. * 50% of motorcycle-related fatal crashes from 2010-2012 were alcohol-and/or drugrelated

4-H Camp Makes Memories Remember your days at camp? Spending time giggling with your new best friend? Exploring the caves and trails? Digging under rocks in the stream, looking for salamanders and other wiggly things? Great times, right? Why not give your child the gift of memories? Send him or her to 4-H camp this summer. Adams County 4-H’ers and their friends camp at Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp in Jackson, along with youth from several other counties in the region. Camp sessions include a Cloverbud Overnighter for youth 5 and in kindergarten through second grade and their parent or guardian; Beginner Camp for youth in 3rd, 4th, or 5th grades, Junior Camp for youth in 6th, 7th, or 8th grades, and Teen Camp, for older youth. Camp is open to both 4-H and non-4-H youth. At camp, youth are supervised by OSU Extension staff, trained 4-H volunteers, and dedicated and trained 4-H teen counselors. The camp staff meets frequently in the spring to plan camps that are age-appropriate and filled with traditional camp activities, including canoeing and boating, hiking, campfires and outdoor cooking, singing and dancing, crafts, ceremonies, and so much more! Camp staff from Adams County includes one Extension staff member, two adult volunteers, and 14 teen counselors. Carolyn L. Belczyk, Extension Educator, 4-H Youth Development, remembers her first year at camp, “decades ago,” when two outstanding counselors introduced her to the girl who would become her best friend for years. They also took time to “teach me the steps to ‘Little Black Book,’ a line dance, and bought me a popsicle when I felt a little homesick,” she says. Joni Hesler, Adams County Junior Dairymen 4-H Club, serves as one of the camp nurses for Beginner Camp. Corbett Phipps, retired OVCTC FFA advisor, will also be accompanying Adams County youth to Beginner Camp. Fourteen area 4-H teens will counsel at one or more of this summer’s camps. They are: Alec Scott, Preston Polley, Karly Boerger, Rebecca Sonner, and Liz Grooms, North Adams; Emily Bauman and Abi and Hannah Rogers, Peebles; Donna Brodt, Jarred Dhonau, Sidney Helms,

Kennedy Jones, and Morgan Grooms, West Union; and Karlie Harper, Manchester. The theme for this year’s Beginner Camp, scheduled for June 10-13, is “Kickin’ It Old School at Canter’s Cave 4-H Camp.” Junior Camp will run from June 24-27, with the theme, “Don’t Change the Channel – Camp is ON!” The annual Teen Camp will be held from June 20-23, and youth will have opportunities to participate on the recently renovated high ropes course, in rappelling, and more. 4-H members who register by May 24 will pay only $95 to attend either the Beginner Camp for youth in 3rd, 4th, or 5th grades or Junior Camp for youth in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades and only $98 to attend Teen Camp. After May 24, the cost increases by $20 to the full camp rates of $115 and $118, respectively. Non-4-H friends and neighbors will pay the full rates regardless of registration date, although all registrations are requested by May 24. The $20 per 4-H’er discount is provided by the Adams County 4-H Advisory Committee as a result of the recently completed successful candy fund raiser. Cloverbud Camp, for enrolled Cloverbuds and a parent or guardian only, costs just $25 if registrations are received on or before May 24 and $45 if registrations are received late. Camp will be held on June 1 and 2. A parent or guardian must accompany their Cloverbud to camp. For more information and a copy of the camp registration form contact OSU Extension Adams County at 937.544.2339 or visit our website at http://adams.osu.edu. Be sure to indicate your camp preference on the registration form. Extension staff will mail a final camp packet with all details, including a list of items to bring to camp, specific arrival and departure times, health forms, and release forms to all registered participants well before the camp dates. 4-H camps are a program of OSU Extension and are open to all youth meeting the age requirements without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or disability.

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor, The current IRS scandal (actually just one of three ongoing scandals) involving the Obama administration might not have the president’s fingerprints directly on it but he certainly created the climate for it. During the 2012 presidential election Obama’s campaign released an enemies list, it wasn’t actually called that but it named 8 major donors to the Romney campaign. In that release the Obama campaign impugned the character of those individuals without giving any details. At least one of those donors was subjected to three audits by IRS and the Labor Department in the months following. Quite a coincidence

I would say. If that isn’t creating an atmosphere of intimidation I don’t know what is. Additionally, Senator Chuck Schumer, Democrat senator of New York wrote a letter to IRS asking them to give special attention to Tea Party and other conservative groups. He needs to explain his motive as well. The Obama administration with their Chicago style politics have gotten away with many underhanded tactics just because the major news media refuses to hold their feet to the fire, maybe things are finally changing.

New Business Filing Figures forApril 2013 Respecting the Sacrifices of our Veterans

Secretary of State Jon Husted today announced that 8,539 new entities filed to do business in Ohio in April 2013. These numbers are up compared to April 2012, in which 7,765 new entities filed with the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State’s office has assisted with 32,504 new business filings to date in 2013 (January-April). This is an increase from the same time period last year, in which there were 31,565 new business filings. Though the most visible role of the Secretary of State is that of chief elections officer, the office is also the first stop for individuals or companies who want to file and start a business in Ohio. While recognizing these numbers can’t provide a complete picture of Ohio’s jobs climate, they are an important indicator of economic activity that Secretary Husted hopes will add to the discussion of how to improve the state’s overall climate for business.

Rep. Calls On Gov. Kasich to Release JobsOhio Staff Salaries Large Raises, Questionable Statements and Possible Conflicts of Interest Fuel Ongoing Controversy State Rep. Matt Lundy sent a letter to Gov. Kasich calling on him to voluntarily release the staff salaries for JobsOhio employees, and to clearly identify what criteria was used to set salary levels for staff. Recent news stories raising questions about the number of former state employees hired by

JobsOhio, their large raises, and questionable statements made about JobsOhio not being “restrained by ethics laws”

State Rep. Matt Lundy (D- Elyria)

have only fueled controversy and questions surrounding the quasi public-private

agency. The longer Gov. Kasich and JobsOhio refuse to disclose information about JobsOhio’s questionable practices the more concerning it becomes. This agency was created by an act of the legislature and is set to receive billions in state liquor profits over the next 25 years, and should be held to the same standards of transparency and accountability as any other state agency receiving billions in state monies.

Memorial Day is fast approaching; a day of parades anad ceremonies to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. If you are taking part in these events, take a close look at the flag. In the morning, it should be lowered to halfstaff to honor the men and women who gave their lives to protect this nation. In the afternoon, it should be fully raised to remind us that we all must ensure those sacrifices are never in vain. The solemn responsibility to protect our nation falls to each and every one of us, but none more so than our service men and women. This is why it is so important for our country to uphold our commitments to our veterans. As your Representative, I hold this commitment to our troops, past, present and future, very dear. Unfortunately, issues at the Veterans Administration (VA) are delaying opportunities for our service men and women to get the treatment they deserve. I recently visited the VA Regional Office in Cleveland to bring the cases of 40 southern Ohio veterans to their direct attention. Each veteran had fallen into the claims backlog, meaning they have been waiting 125 days or more for a decision.

On average, Ohio veterans wait 368 days to have their initial claims adjudicated. Since my visit, these 40 veterans have been able to receive updates and their claims are getting closer to completion. While this progress represents drastic improvement for local veterans and their families, the problem is much larger than just these 40 cases. The VA claims process has fallen into such a state

there. We met with local staff and evaluated the improvements being made. Secretary Shinseki assured me that reducing the backlog is his highest priority and he is keeping a close watch on the progress being made for Ohio veterans. He has overseen significant improvements, including procedural changes implemented to speed up the process, but there is still a long way to go before our veterans get the treatment they deserve. As a member of the Veterans Affairs U.S. Rep. Brad Wenstrup Committee, I will work with him for as long as (R-Ohio) it takes to fix this broken system. As the flag goes back up on Memorial Day, that nearly 70% of all the torch is passed from cases slip into the backlog. those who gave their lives Part of the reason this to those who continue the backlog exists is because fight.

Resolution to Review Illegal Abortion Practices As more details of the illegal abortion practices of Dr. Kermit Gosnell and others come to light, Senator Rob Portman (ROhio) has cosponsored a resolution introduced by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) calling on the Senate to review public policies that led to these tragic events. Dr. Kermit Gosnell is currently standing trial for the murder of one patient and seven newborn babies who were killed after the abortions failed and the babies were born alive. “For far too long, an inexcusable lack of attention was given to the disturbing events that occurred in Dr. Gosnell’s house of horrors,” Portman said. “As we learn more about the violations of the infants’ inalienable right to life, it is abundantly clear that a lack of oversight and accountability at this abortion facility contributed to heartbreaking loss of life and put women’s lives in jeopardy. In order to avoid future tragedies, I am call-

From The Kitchen Of Pat Wylie Fling Barn Special Events Graduates Prayer Father, I have knowledge, so will you show me now how to use it wisely? Help me find a way somehow to make the world I live in a little better place and make life with its problems a bit easier to face. Grant me faith, courage and put purpose in my days. Show me how to serve Thee in the most effective ways so all my education, my knowledge and my skill may find their true fulfillment as I

Pat Wylie, Sandy Baker, Casey Rutledge & Stacy Kinhalt COSMETOLOGIST learn to do Thy will. May I ever be aware in everything I do that

knowledge comes from learning and wisdom comes from you.

Jokes of the week by George One man said to another, "Your wife always drives like lightening, doesn't she?" The man said. Yes, she is always striking trees!" Everybody is coming out with slogans and even interior decorators have come up with one, Bless Beige! All good things happen to the other fellow if you wait! George Perry

The Fling Barn has announced two very special evenings of music on two consecutive Saturday nights. Appearing May 25, will be The Lewis Brothers from Ross County. Often called " punk-a-billy " or " supercharged folk rock ", The Lewis Bothers combine elements of folk, rock, country and bluegrass into a sound all their own. With two CD's released and a growing fan base, The Lewis Brothers are one of the most exciting acts in our area. This special Memorial Day weekend show begins at 8:00 p.m. On Saturday, June 1, The Fling Barn presents Commander Cody. Cody struck it big in 1971 along with his band, The Lost Planet Airmen, with the release of their first album, Lost in the Ozone Again. This album yielded the Top-10 single, " Hot Rod Lincoln". The Lost Planet Airmen stayed

together until 1977, releasing several albums for Warner Brothers and hit singles like " Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That Cigarette". Cody later moved to Austin, Texas, where he became part of the budding Austin music scene, along with the likes of Willie Nelson, among others. This Special Event kicks off at 7:30 p.m. with opening act After Dark. The Fling Barn is located 6 miles south of Hillsboro, off State Route 247, at 8205 West Berrysville Road. Bear's Concession serves sandwiches and sides beginning at 7:00 p.m. Free Primitive Camping is available, along with a Bed & Breakfast. The Fling Barn presents music and dancing most Saturday nights, April through November. For a complete calender, directions and information, go to www.flingbarn.com or phone 937-402-8300.

Ladies Auxiliary Distributing Paper Poppies During the remainder of the month of May, the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary Volunteers from the Young Moore Unit #100 of West Union will be seen around the area distributing red crepe paper poppies in exchange for contributions to assist disabled and hospitalized veterans. 100% of the donations received by Auxiliary volunteers for poppies and contributions to the poppy fund are used exclusively to assist and support veterans and their families. Every Auxiliary poppy is made by a dis-

abled or hospitalized veteran which provides disabled veterans with a rehabilitation activity and a small personal income. The physical and mental activity of poppy making provides therapeutic benefits for these veterans. All poppy making materials are provided to them free of charge. The Auxiliary would greatly appreciate any contribution of any amount to support the poppy program. Contacts are unit officers Shirley Stapleton, Vicki Davis, Susan May, Bonnie Hawkins, Virginia Grooms and Louise Davis.

Wash, wash, wash your hands As Memorial Day weekend cookouts and graduation celebrations approach, people will be planning all kinds of meal events and get togethers. One of the most important “activities” that should take place during these events is hand washing. It may seem silly to emphasize hand washing as an “activity” for a Memorial Day cookout or graduation celebration, but it is important for everyone at the event to participate in this critical activity to prevent the risk of illness—especially foodborne illness. Most people actually do not wash their hands as much as they should or as adequately as they should. When preparing or eating food, improper hand washing can lead to foodborne illness. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that each year roughly 1 in 6 Americans (or 48 million people) get sick from foodborne diseases. The CDC also estimates that 128,000 are hospitalized and 3,000 die each year from foodborne illness. It’s serious business! At these types of events,

people should wash their hands before preparing food; after handling raw meats, poultry, fish, or eggs; and before eating food.

Dear Miss Needles

Dear Miss Needles: My son graduated. Any ideas what I can do with the Gown, now that graduation is over? Sign me Proud Mary Dear Proud Mary: The fabric from the gowns seems slick and I am not sure how well it would hold up in a quilt but you could use it in an art project or art quilt where it would not be used so much.

Dear Miss Needles: Why are my needles always bending? Signed Judy Dear Judy: - Needles bend with hand sewing because of the amount of pressure, thichness of the thread and fabrics and also can bend from the heat generated. In a sewing machine, the needles can bend if the machine is slightly off. Try

reseting/reinstalling the sewing machine needle to see if that helps. Also tension in the machine can cause issues. Good Luck! Do you have a question you would like Dear Miss Needles to answer. Email her at dearmissneedles@yahoo.com or write to her in care of The Informer.

Adams County Senior Citizens By the time many of you read this column, our 38th annual All-County Citizens Day 2013 will pretty much be history. Many county seniors will have been honored for their talents and accomplishments. We’ll have much more about this special day in next week’s column when all the results and details are complete. Memorial Day. Our office will be closed on Monday, May 27th to honor and remember those who gave so much of themselves and even the ultimate price to allow us all the freedom we enjoy every day here in the good ole USA. Use it or lose it! Exercise is the key to slowing down the aging process! Your life can be changed for the better, no matter how many times you may have neglected your body in the past. You can have a second chance to feel rejuvenated and regain vigor, vitality, muscular strength and endurance that you thought were gone forever! Simply getting off the couch or chair and doing something fun and interesting alone can make you feel better. It may surprise you to learn that the change in our body that comes with age can also occur within a matter of days in anyone – even younger people, who are forced to stay in bed due to illness or injury. These changes are caused by immobility and can be corrected by activity and exercise. Research shows that we can reverse or at least retard many of the effects of the aging process without turning ourselves into Olympic athletes. Please consult your doctor before starting any exercise program. Start out slowly, build up strength and endurance and feel better physically and mentally. That being said….

Cuffs & Collars Field reports from ODNR Division of Wildlife Officers Southwest Ohio Last September, State Wildlife Officer Byron Rice and Investigator Randy Tunnell conducted a surveillance project on the dove field at Clark Lake Wildlife Area in order to identify and appropriately address any wildlife violations that might occur. Approximately 2 hours into the project, Investigator Tunnell observed a Cooper’s hawk flying across the field in his direction. It appeared that a hunter across the field may have fired at this hawk but this could not be confirmed. As the hawk continued across the field toward Investigator Tunnell, a hunter near him shot at the hawk, but missed. Investigator Tunnel relayed this information to Officer Rice who then contacted the hunter as he was leaving the field. Officer Rice informed him that his earlier actions had been observed. The hunter did not think he had committed a violation because he had mistaken it for a dove and had missed anyway. Officer Rice informed him of the importance of identifying his target before shooting and that even shooting at non-game birds is a violation. The hunter was issued a summons and was later found guilty in the Clark County Municipal Court. Southeast Ohio During the 2012 early archery deer season, State

Wildlife Investigator Randy Smith received information that an individual had already harvested two bucks in Guernsey County and was continuing to hunt for more. In late November, the suspect

told Investigator Smith that he did not harvest two antlered deer, but that he had helped his wife’s uncle with a deer. Through the investigation, the suspect was found to have harvested both antlered deer and the uncle checked one in. The suspect had also harvested an antlerless deer during the previous archery season which the uncle had also checked in. The suspect was charged with taking two antlered deer, and failure to tag a deer that he had killed. He plead guilty to both charges and was sentenced to $500 in fines, $500 restitution, $100 court costs, and had his hunting license suspended for one year. The uncle was charged with two counts of tagging a deer that he did not kill. He plead guilty to both charges and was sentenced to $200 in fines and $100 court costs. Northeast Ohio Over a one week period,

Wildlife Officer Randy White assigned to Lorain County issued three individuals summonses for target practicing on the Wellington Wildlife Area which is not designated as a shooting range. The three subjects were found guilty in the Oberlin Municipal Court and paid $1200 in fines and costs. In addition to the fines, the men were required to complete 75 hours of community service. Central Ohio On February 14, State Wildlife Officer Josh Shields received a complaint from an anonymous driver in Union County that observed a dead red fox on a truck tailgate while parked at a residence. Since fox season was closed, Shields investigated the call identifying the trapper and the locations that he was trapping. Shields investigated several nearby fences on a neighbor’s property and located multiple untagged snares that were set at crossings. After gathering evidence Shields met with the trapper and discussed the incident. The trapper admitted he had been targeting coyotes using snares at fence crossings and had successfully caught several coyotes through the winter. The trapper admitted to placing the traps and told Shields that he had not purchased a hunting license since the 1980’s. Shields explained the trapping regulations and requirements to the trapper and advised him of the violations that were committed.

May is Military Appreciation Month Did you know that May is Military Appreciation Month? If you appreciate what our military men and women have done and are doing for our country, May provides you with plenty of holidays and opportunities to express your appreciation. May 1 is Loyalty Day, a day that provides Americans a chance to reaffirm their loyalty to America and to revisit their heritage. Loyalty Day is not a new holiday nor a federal one, but it is a legal holiday that began in 1921. Some communities still make a big deal out of this holiday with parades, parties, and various kinds of ceremonies. May 5 – 11 is Public Service Recognition Week. This week honors all those who serve the public through local, county, state, and federal government jobs. It is traditionally the first full week of May. It is seldom celebrated, but it is often used to educate the public about the services and contributions of these important workers. May 8 is Victory in Europe Day. This day celebrates the unconditional surrender of Germany in World War II on May 8, 1945. Although few celebrations are held today, huge celebrations rocked cities like Chicago, Miami, New York, and Chicago in 1945. Nearly every city and town held its own celebration. May 11 is Military Spouse Appreciation Day. It is usually celebrated the Friday before Mother’s Day. This day, started in 1984 under President Ronald Reagan, recognizes the sacrifices and the support of military spouses.

Each President since Reagan has started this Day with a speech or a proclamation. Military Spouses serve our country just as much as those who go off to war or serve us in lands around the globe. They keep the “home fires burning” so to speak. They fill the shoes of two parents. Their service is just as heroic as that of those who go off to battle. May 12 is Mother’s Day.

Day. It is usually the third Saturday of every May. This day honors all those who serve in the military. Originally, it was to replace the individual days for each branch of the military service, but those are still observed despite Armed Forces Day. In most places this holiday is ignored, but Bremerton, WA, holds the record for the longest running Armed Forces Day Parade. This year will mark their 65th annual parade. Finally, there is Memorial Guest Column Day, the final Monday in Veterans Corner May. This is the most wideTony A. Blevins, ly observed holiday of the CVSO month.

Pasture Weed Control Trial The second day of October we treated some forage plots with a few different herbicides, including a new product from DuPont that has not yet been labeled to my knowledge. This product has shown good residual control for some problem weeds that we deal with in forage fields, mostly pastures. We looked at the plots about 6 weeks after the application. Next Monday, May 20, we will take another look. If you are dealing with problem weeds like ironweed, thistles, and others, you may want to attend this short program to look for early control. We will begin at 6:00 p.m. with light refreshments. The location is the Kelly Cooper farm just east of West Union. The farm is located on McNeilan Road which is less than a mile east of West Union off of SR 125. We will meet again in the summer when some of these problem weeds have had more time to get started, but we want to be able to identify some of these weeds at a smaller stage of growth. If you plan to attend on Monday please call one of the three county OSU Extension Offices to RSVP for this free program. The Adams Co. number is 544-2339, Brown Co. 378-6716, and Highland Co. is 393-1918. Please call and leave your name, phone number and the number that will be attending by noon on Monday. We Want Your Pigweed As we continue to deal with resistance, there is an article in this week’s C.O.R.N. newsletter from OSU Extension Weed Specialist, Mark Loux. The C.O.R.N. newsletter is something that I send out weekly on e-mail. This is put together by OSU Extension Specialist and County Educators from throughout Ohio every Monday morning throughout the growing season via a con-

ference call. The letter is email out normally early Tuesday. If you would like to be added to my mailing list for the C.O.R.N. or other crop related information, send me an e-mail requesting such. My address is dugan.46@osu.edu You can contact me in addition to Mark. His contact information is at the end of his request. This is the portion of this week’s newsletter concerning the pigweeds: We are trying to get an assessment of herbicide resistance in Ohio pigweed populations, including smooth and redroot pigweed, waterhemp, and Palmer amaranth.
