Duke Energy exits Killen and Stuart Plants 40- year tax base dwindles, drains the county's coffers BY PATRICIA BEECH PEOPLE'S DEFENDER Brother, can you spare a few million dollars? That could be the question Adams Countians will be asking themselves in the coming months and years as the area's power-plant tax base is slowly eroding by time and progress. Duke Energy has sold its
interest in the Killen and Stuart power plants to the Dynergy Corporation at a loss of $56 million, and that loss is casting a long shadow across Adams County. “The plants' 40-year-old equipment is just not worth what it once was,” says Adams County Auditor David Gifford. While the devaluation of the property is an acceptable

loss for the energy giant as it abandons its once lucrative relationship with a coalpowered generation, Duke's exit leaves Adams County scrambling to replace a tax base that has supported its schools and many of its social programs such as the Wilson Children's Home and Developmental Disabilities services. County schools stand to lose $1.4 million, and sources report that Manchester Local School District is already planning its cuts. However, because state law requires the county to provide public education for its students, much of that loss will be supplemented by public school foundation money which will look to fill the gaps and make sure students don't fall behind as society demands better educated and technically skilled workers. According to Gifford, the townships most affected by the cuts will be Sprigg and

will probably hold true for the other companies,” said Gifford. “Even if they don't sell, they're going to ask us to lower the taxes they pay, and the Department of Taxation is probably going to agree with them, and that will be a huge loss for the county.” Gifford says there were early warning signs that the coal-powered plants had a short life expectancy. “Back in the 1970's when I was Deputy Auditor, the companies were quick to tell us that we had dollar signs in our eyes thinking about the money we were going to have in the years to come,” he says. “They said then that the equipment would only last about 40 years because it wears out. Four decades ago it may not have been unrealistic to imagine that worn-out equipment would be replaced, but it certainly would have been a stretch to imagine that coal-powered plants would go the way of the dinosaur.”

The students at Peebles Elementary School recently attended a “Trees to Textbooks” assembly featuring Smokey the Bear who shared his wildfire safety message followed by a check presentation to the district. Officials from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Forestry presented a check to the school representing their share of timber sales revenues from Adams County's State Forest as a part of the “Trees to Textbooks” program. Superintendent Richard Seas joined the students and teachers to accept a $180,966 check for the Adams County Ohio Valley School District. Following the presentation the student body sang “God Bless the USA” and had the opportunity to spend time with Smokey the Bear. Through the ODNR Division of Forestry’s “Trees to Textbooks” program, a percentage of the revenue generated from state forest management activity goes to the county, township
and school district in which the activity took place. Sixteen rural Ohio school districts and their corresponding counties and townships shared more than $2 million from the sale of timber from Ohio’s state forests. In total Adams County, along with various townships and school districts, received $581,709. In addition to the check presented to ACOVSD, Manchester Local School District received $109,888; the county received $145,427; Franklin Township received $54,944, Green Township received $18,957, and Jefferson Township received $71,525. “Sharing these funds locally helps communities provide essential services and can go a long way in making good schools better,” said ODNR Director James Zehringer. “The natural resources in these areas provide a host of benefits, and this is one tangible way residents can benefit from their state forests.” The ODNR Division of Forestry has been distributing timber revenues to counties and townships since the early 1980s.

Forecast for colder, snowier season means older Ohioans should be ‘Winter Ready’ PRESS RELEASE Weather experts are expecting Winter 2016 to be colder and snowier than in recent years. Extreme weather conditions are hard on all of us, but can be particularly challenging for older adults, whose bodies don't react the same way they did when they were younger. As a result, elders can be slower to adjust to adverse conditions and are at increased risk for injury from accidents, like slipping and falling. During winter safety awareness week (Nov. 13-19), the Ohio Department of Aging encourages all older Ohioans and their families to plan today to be "Winter Ready!" "Ohio winters can be unpredictable, but are likely to bring snow, ice, extremely cold temperatures, wind and more – all of which can create significant hazards for anyone, but especially our elders." said Stephanie M. Loucka, director of the department. "Make a plan today to minimize your risk from wintry conditions and maximize your ability to remain active, independent and healthy all winter long." Stay active safely: Falls are the leading cause of injury-related hospitalization and death among Ohioans aged 65 and older, and the risk for a life-changing fall goes up in snowy and icy conditions. However, even winter falls can be prevented. Find more tips to prevent falls at the Department of Aging's STEADY U Ohio website: www.steadyu.ohio.gov. Heat your home safely:

BY FAYE MAHAFFEY OSUE MASTER GARDENER VOLUNTEER Who taught you about gardening? What are your first memories about seeds and soil? I loved spending time with my mother in the garden. She was a “city girl” who had married a farmer and we had a huge vegetable garden. What were the first seeds planted? Flowers, of course. Zinnias, cosmos, gladiolas, to name a few and of course, her best loved Snap Dragons. I had an old tractor tire that my Dad installed in the lower yard so that I could have my very own flower bed. I am sure that my Mom would sneak in to pull weeds when I was playing, but the gardening “bug” stuck with me. In a recent Horticulture Magazine article, Dan Hinkley listed five simple things you can do with children to encourage interest in nature and gardening that include: 1) Root a Willow branch – Hinkley’s grandparents had a Weeping Willow (Salix babylonica) and he took home some long branches and stuck them in glass gallon jars. Within two weeks he watched the first roots begin to push through the existing bark. Within another two weeks Hinkley had planted the branch. (Don’t have a Weeping Willow handy? I have rooted Forsythia branches the same way.) 2) Plant a carrot – On a bright windowsill, a carrot top set in water will right away begin to produce its foliage. 3) Plant an Avocado seed – For a child of any age, it’s not easy, but it’s a good life lesson. 4) Plant a tiny edi-
ble garden – Starting small is always wise. Hinkley’s first vegetable garden was 20 feet by 10 feet. At 11, he learned how to grow radishes, potatoes, tomatoes, peas, beans, parsnips, kale and lettuce. He learned to work with soil to produce things to consume and that relationship carries on with him today. 5) Take a hike – in virtually every neighborhood in North America, there is a trail somewhere nearby, be it through a city park or a National Wilderness. Discover the plants there with your family. Identify the trees and shrubs and perennials together – field guides help make it simple. Another favorite website of mine, Kids and Gardening, shares some important things to consider: 1) Give them good gardening experiences. These will be great memories in years to come. 2) Relax your standards. Crooked rows or weeds as pets are fine. 3) Leave room for good old-fashioned digging. Holes are a highly popular landscape feature. Look for worms. 4) Model the message that some insects are beneficial, and even destructive bugs are highly interesting. Remember: one of the best things you ever grow may be a gardener. Don’t forget to mark your calendars for the Nov. 17 garden seminar being held at the Mt. Orab campus of Southern State Community College at 7 p.m. in Room 107. FFA advisor and teacher Jamie Louden will be talking about Growing Chrysanthemums. Remember that all seminars are free and open to the public.

Remember Me Remember me when flowers bloom early in the Spring. Remember me on sunny days in the fun the Summer brings. Remember me in the fall as you walk through the leaves of gold. And in the Winter time, remember me in the stories that are told. But most of all, remember each day right from the start, And I will be forever near, for I live within your heart. Author Unknown

When winning isn’t everything My six-year old went to bed crying the other night because we wouldn’t let her win the family game of Headbanz. She kept cheating to try to win, and kept getting mad when I’d say, “It’s okay. It’s just a game.” So I made her leave the table. I think she thought she was going to get away with it because she was little and cute. But no. It doesn’t work that way in our house. As she walked away, I’m pretty sure I even said something to the effect of, “Get over it, sweetie. You can’t win them all.” Some people might call that bad parenting. I disagree. (Okay, maybe she didn’t deserve the taunting.) But I think healthy competition is important. In our house, sometimes the competition between siblings gets brutal. Of course we interject if it turns into a fight, but I believe learning how to be a humble winner and a good loser is something that serves us well way beyond childhood games. Several years ago, we were at the park and my kids were playing with a little boy who started bawling his eyes out and ran over to me. I immediately thought one of my kids hurt him, but when I got to the bottom of what was wrong, he simply said that he got tagged. In a game of tag. I explained the

But most of the time, it’s fair game and it’s an opportunity to nurture our character and humility. Sometimes there are still tears (from the kids, not me). But it’s nice when I see one them compliment the other when they see them do something well, or when they lose and realize that they still had a lot of fun. I feel like the negative ad campaigns in this last election gave us a good example of what not to do in real life. It was certainly not an example of fighting fair, and it was everywhere we looked. There were days I didn’t even turn on the television because I could physically not stomach one more negative comment that day. Being a good sport needs to be taught at home, at church, in schools, in sports, or even over a simple game of cards at home. We have to be so very careful about what we say and how we react, because little eyes are watching. They will do what we do, so we have to ask ourselves if we are showing the character we hope they learn. Be the example.
Honoring our nation’s veterans This Veterans Day, we must reaffirm our commitment to those who sacrificed so much in defense of our country, as well as the families that supported them along the way. From those who served in WWII to those recently returning from the Middle East, their long tradition of bravery and sacrifice for our nation should be honored on Veterans Day and every day. As a nation, we are grateful to the bold few women and men who volunteer to protect our country. The debt owed to those who have served in our armed forces can never be fully repaid but we must constantly work toward that end. Congress should continue the progress made in recent years addressing the needs and concerns of veterans and come together to find solu-

tions for the challenges veterans and their families continue to face. This includes creating educational and employment opportunities for veterans transitioning to civilian life. That is why I introduced legislation requiring the VA to develop a plan to improve its vocational rehabilitation services. When veterans can
find high-quality, good-paying jobs, transitioning and adjusting to civilian life is easier both for them and their families. My obligation as a United States Senator to assist America’s heroes and their families is sacred to me. I am committed to working with my colleagues on the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, the VA, veteran service organizations, and veterans to build on the work we have done in recent years. Through a combination of increased federal investments and improved services, we have made real headway in the fight to ensure that all veterans have a place to call home. Since 2010, homelessness among veterans has declined 47 percent. Still, even one homeless veteran is too many. I’ve joined with
a bipartisan group of colleges to create comprehensive veterans’ legislation that would increase outreach to landlords to encourage them to rent to veterans. The bill would also expand the definition of a “homeless veteran” — so more veterans, including those facing domestic abuse, could access housing assistance — and provide grants for organizations that support formerly homeless veterans. My staff and I remain ready to help veterans, their families, and their survivors access health care, benefits, and opportunities for education and employment. If you or someone you know needs any assistance, please contact my office toll-free at 1888-896-OHIO (6446) or visit my website.
Letters to the Editor
Kudos to some local students To the Editor, In this day and age we seldom hear about the great young people that are in our area. I would like to remedy that here. At our fundraiser for Hope House Christian Counseling Center in Sinking Spring on Saturday,
Nov. 5, we had the privilege of being served by members of the National Honor Society from Peebles High School. From the moment they showed up for the event, it was evident that this group of young people were the kind of children any parent
would be proud of. They came with a servant attitude which was evident in their attitudes, their appearance, their demeanor, and their smiles. It was such a blessing for all of us there to get to spend the evening with such an outstanding group of young
people. Congratulations to their parents, to Peebles High School, and to Ms. Linda Zinser -their National Honor Society advisor. Julie Seaman Hope House Christian Counseling Center

The GE Veterans Network (GEVN) is a new addition to GE that attempts to create a community to support, develop, and promote military veterans throughout GE's business and local communities by focusing on fostering a culture inside the company that recruits, develops and regains veterans as an essen-

Humane Society rescues rooster BY JESSICA HUXMANN After receiving a call that renters had moved to another state and left behind their chickens, Humane Agent Melissa Downs headed to the scene. Upon confirming that no one was living in the home, Agent Downs started trying to catch the chickens. There was a hen and a one-footed rooster with multiple body scars and a bent beak. Agent Downs found the decaying remains of other chickens on the property. There was no water or commercial food available on the property. She was unable to catch the surviving two chickens the first day, so she went back after dark. When she arrived that evening, she discovered that the hen had died and the rooster was nowhere to be found. The next morning Agent Downs drove by to see if she could find the rooster. After a thorough search, she found him in his "hut". The hut was filthy and had remains of dead chicks.

It’s time to get our priorities straight here OK people. It’s so time to just calm down. The world did not come to an end on November 9 and unless the big man upstairs decides, it is not going to be happening anytime soon, even if you are petrified at the thought of the new president-elect having control of the country’s nuclear codes. The Founding Fathers of this great nation set up our system with a purpose, mainly because of their mistrust in the ability of the American people to make sound judgments. Seems like many of you have proven that thought to be pretty correct in the last week. Get out of the streets-do something productive. My suggestion is to take in a ball Mark game Carpenter someSports Editor where to calm your frayed nervous systems. But as I see it, all of what has transpired on the American political scene in the last week is so very unimportant because you all have your priorities mixed up. Who cares who the next President is? Let’s focus on the important things here, such as the fact that basketball season is upon us, the college football season is heading towards the playoffs and that will. barring misfortune, include the Ohio State Buckeyes. The NFL is in full swing and though our beloved Bengals have struggled, the Cowboys are 8-1. See, focus on what is really important and you don’t have to walk through the streets with a ridiculous “He’s not my President” sign. Guess what, he certainly will be in 81 days. We need to concentrate on the beginning of the college basketball season and the fact that the Kentucky Wildcats won their first two games (though they may have lost one by the time you read this, but who cares? It’s early.) We need to concentrate on the winding down of the college football season and the most wide-open race for the playoffs since the crazy system was instituted. When it comes to college football, I am old school, New Year’s Day bowl games and such, but hey I am willing to adapt and I didn’t have to march in the streets yelling vulgarities to do it. We need to concentrate on the fact that high school basketball is gearing up here in Adams County. If you want to march in the streets, do it an carry a sign that says “Go Dragons”, “Go Devils”, “Go Greyhounds, or “Go Indians.” I was so upset and distraught over the results of the election that you know what I did? I went to four basketball scrimmages last week. See, I have my priorities straight! Then we have to deal with so called “professionals” in the sports world who feel compelled to voice their opinions on the election results.

Lady Devils romp in Foundation Game North Adams routs Georgetown by 50 in exhibition contest BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER It was only a preseason exhibition game but still an impressive outing for Coach Rob Davis and his North Adams Lady Devils as they crossed county lines on Nov. 11 to tangle with the Georgetown Lady G-Men in the annual OHSAA Foundation game between the two schools. Behind a 25-point effort from junior Avery Harper, the Lady Devils raced to a commanding first quarter lead and never looked back as they rolled past Georgetown by a final count of 73-23. “I was pleased with our effort and energy tonight,” said Coach Davis after the exhibition. “I didn't know what to expect the first time out but I thought we took advantage of our pressure and our height advantage against them. They have to all be happy with however many minutes they get, it might be different every game depending on the situation. We are all in it together.” “We have a lot of interchangeable parts and I'm
excited about the season.” A Foundation Game is played just as a regular season game, four eight minute quarters, and the Lady Devils took control early, using a pair of three-pointers from Grace McDowell and three buckets by Harper to grab a 16-2 advantage. With Georgetown head coach Bernie Cropper substituting five players at a time and Coach Davis using 11 girls, the first quarter onslaught by North Adams continued with a Madee Shipley three-pointer, plus baskets by Lakyn Hupp, Brooklyn Young, and Charlee Louden that gave the visitors a 28-4 lead after eight minutes of play. A McDowell trey opened the second period and a later perfect pass from Taylor Hesler to Caitlin Young for a score finished a 7-0 run for the Lady Devils. By halftime, the North Adams girls had stretched the margin out to 44-11. In the third quarter, Coach Davis used his starters for about half the time and with the big lead, play got a little sloppier and the Lady Devils spent

Substituting freely in the final eight minutes, the Lady Devils got points from seven different players, including a Hesler three and buckets from Maddie Toole and Brooklyn Stout, and their
first outing of the preseason against outside competition was a successful one, finishing the night with a 50-point victory, 73-23. Harper led all scorers with her 25 points, 10 field goals and a perfect 5 for 5 from the foul line. McDowell also reached double figures with 11, including her trio of three-
point goals. Eleven different players dented the scoring column for the Lady Devils in the win. Jenkins led the squad with 9 rebounds, Hesler with 5 assists, and Toole with 5 steals. Now, the Lady Devils look forward to hosting

Lady Dragons host Saturday morning scrimmage WU battles Portsmouth West, New Richmond BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER Another new era is beginning for the West Union Lady Dragons girls basketball program as J.R. Kirker takes the reins of the varsity squad and his team took the court for the first time against another opponent on Saturday, Nov. 12, welcoming to town the Portsmouth West Lady Senators and the New Richmond Lady Lions for an early triscrimmage. With the Lady Senators came a familiar face back to West Union as former Lady Dragons' head coach Jason Claytor now is the head man at Portsmouth West. Claytor led the West Union girls to one of their best seasons in recent history in 2015-16 and Kirker will be looking to continue that success. The Lady Dragons took the hardwood first for a 10-minute period with the Lady Lions and both sides
were a bit offensively challenged, combining for just 10 points, only 3 of those for the West Union side. Their next quarter was with Portsmouth West and went much better, beginning with a Sianna Mills basket on the inside and ending with a Mackenzie Kirker threepointer as the Lady Dragons outgunned the Lady Senators 12-6. The next 10-minute effort for the West Union girls was a tough one, as they struggled mightily with the New Richmond full court pressure and again only managed 3 points, falling 10-3. The next quarter with West was a tight one, but a late bucket by one of the Daniels' twins and a Harley Silvia free throw left the Lady Dragons on top 9-6. “I was pleased overall, there were more positives than negatives today,” said Coach Kirker. “We played pretty well defensively,

Deer gun season set to begin Tom Cross Sportsmen’s Exit
Ohio’s deer gun season opens Monday, Nov. 28 and continues through Sunday, Dec. 4. Prior to that is the youth deer gun season opening this weekend, Nov. 19 -20 for hunters 17 years of age or younger. Thus far bow hunters in Adams County have harvested 811 deer which represents a near 30 percent decrease from the deer take a year ago when archers bagged 1,147 deer. Currently in Adams County 423 bucks have been harvested and 388 antlerless deer have been taken. In neighboring Brown County 543 deer have been taken so far, Clermont County with 656 deer. That represents a 21 (Brown) and 24 (Clermont) percent decline See Priorities / B3 from a year ago. Youth season and the
deer gun season figures will undoubtedly be down as well as ODNR had set a course for a vigorous antlerless harvest the past several years. However in an about-face this season, for the first time in a long time, no antlerless permits are available for either Adams, Brown, or Clermont counties. Locally, only in Hamilton County are antlerless permits valid. I suspect if this downward harvest trend continues Adams County will join the ranks of the two -eer limit counties. Currently hunters in Adams, Brown, and Clermont can bag three deer, of only one of which may be a buck. Interestingly enough Adams County leads the state in non-resident deer harvest. Total deer take in Ohio as of Nov. 8 stands at 42,268, down over 15 percent across the state from last year. In an effort to stay
ahead of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD), portions of Holmes and Wayne counties in Ohio are again under disease surveillance. All deer harvested in those areas are required to have the carcass checked for the disease. A CWD outbreak at a captive deer facility in Holmes County a few years back prompted such action as it is suspected some of the deer escaped thereby placing the wild deer herd at risk. The trend across the state, and locally as well, is the decreased participation in the deer gun season. Once the centerpiece of Ohio’s deer season, its popularity has declined as more hunters are turning to the long archery season to harvest their deer. For the past three years more deer were taken by archery hunters then gun hunters. Over 10,000 more deer were bagged by bows and crossbows then fell to the gun last deer season.

After an interesting search, Lear McCoy of Peebles was able to track down this big non-typical that he shot with his crossbow on Oct. 29. In Adams County last year 2,238 deer were taken by gun hunters during all the gun seasons, 1,890 deer were tagged by archers. One local hunter was lucky in more ways than one. Lear McCoy from Peebles bagged a big nontypical in late October that green scored over 200 B&C points. The big 16-
pointer had a 9-inch drop tine hanging from its right side and forked back tines on both sides. McCoy had gotten some trail cam pics of the buck in mid-October and set up tree stands at two different locations. One stand was

Dragons host first preseason tune-up BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER After only picking up three wins last season, the West Union Dragons varsity basketball squad, under the guidance of second-year head coach Josh White, began their path to improvement last Thursday evening as they hosted the Huntington Huntsmen in their first scrimmage of the preseason. As might be expected for two teams that had less than a full week of practice under their belts and were facing outside com-
petition for the first time, play was both sparkling and sloppy. The scrimmage format was par for the course, 10 minute quarters with a running clock, and the two varsity squads took the floor first, for what turned out to be relatively lowscoring periods, with West Union taking the first 10-8 and the second 14-10. Both coaches substituted freely, mixing and matching lineup,s and the pace was quick. When the varsity squads took a break, a very athletic and talented West Union
JV team coached by Austin Kingsolver, put on a show in their first quarter of action, racking up 23 points in 10 minutes while only allowing 10. In their second and third times on the court, the JV Dragons again prevailed, 14-8 and then 24-8. As far as the WUHS varsity was concerned, after a good start, the results in their next four stanzas weren't so good, much to the dismay of Coach White. The visiting Huntsmen took all four of

Greyhounds show positive signs in first scrimmage Manchester hosts Augusta to kick off preseason BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER
Half of the varsity basketball coaches in Adams County are new this season and one of them will be handling the duties at Manchester High School this winter. A former MHS standout on the hardwood, Joey Darnell now moves into the position of varsity boys head coach and inherits a talented and athletic bunch of Greyhounds for the 201617 campaign. The Hounds kicked off their exhibition season last Saturday afternoon, hosting the Augusta Panthers in a combined varsity-JV scrimmage. Before the afternoon's action ended, the two schools had each battled through five 10minute JV and varsity quarters. The JV squads took the stage first and after two quarters of play, Coach Josh Hamm's Hounds were behind on the scoreboard 30-25. Next up were the varsity Hounds and their run and gun style under Coach Darnell and with the aid of a number of three-point goals, the home team squeaked out a 23-22
Deer
From page B1 near a creek bottom which he’d only hunt in the mornings, the other was higher up on a hillside which was his evening stand. The area was a mixture of bottom lands, hardwoods, and thick cedars. On Saturday morning Oct. 29, McCoy had been in the stand a couple of hours without seeing any deer when a small yearling doe suddenly appeared and stopped to look behind her. About 50 yards behind her was the big non-typical he had photos of from his trail camera. The buck was
advantage after 20 minutes of running clock action. As the varsity teams took a much-needed rest, the JV squads took the court again, playing a pair of 10-minute periods. This time the Manchester offense looked much crisper, winning the two stanzas of play by a cumulative score of 29-25. Back out came the varsity fives and this time,behind some sharpshooting by Kaulen Cox, the Hounds dominated. Their last two baskets of the second quarter came on a nifty tip-in by Justin Aldridge and a buzzer beater by Gage Lucas as the host squad rolled 4015. The one final quarter for the Greyhounds' JV squad was a tough one as they seemed a but fatigued and only managed two baskets as the Panthers came out on top 10-4. For the final varsity period, Coach Darnell mixed in some JV players with his varsity group and despite a long three-pointer from junior Ethan Pennywitt, the Hounds dropped the quarter 15-14 when Augusta hit a shot at the day's final buzzer. “We played well at moving slowly head on towards the stand but after a few minutes turned broadside offering the shot he was hoping for. At the sound of the crossbow firing the big buck wheeled and turned quickly getting his huge rack tangled in a sapling and after managing to free itself, shot straight for the dense woods and disappeared. McCoy, confident of his shot, waited about an hour before getting down and walked over to where the buck stood and found ample evidence of a good hit. He returned to his truck and went into town to grab a bite to eat hoping to give the buck plenty of time to bed down and die.

We have a race here in Adams County that hasn’t even been decided yet but I don’t expect protests in the street when it is. You upset city folks could take a lesson or two from us folks out here-go home, take a nap, then go over to Thelma Lou’s and watch some TV. You’ll feel so much better.

Offensively, we were not bad and executed our sets pretty well. Kaulen (Cox) played well on the offensive side of the ball and Colton Thornburg as always played hard and played well.” “ We only 8 turnovers in five quarters and I can live
with that. Overall, not bad at all for our first scrimmage of the season.” Cox led the Hounds with 29 total points on the day, including seven threepointers. Back to the practice court for the week, the Hounds will host another scrimmage on Saturday, Nov. 19 when they welcome in Clermont Northeastern and Portsmouth Notre Dame. Tip off at MHS is scheduled for 10 a.m.
A few hours later McCoy and J.T. Sowards from Peebles went out to the spot to take up the blood trail but could not find the deer. Late that afternoon they were back in Peebles and saw Larry McFarland’s roll-back truck with a front end crashed car that had hit a deer. McCoy called McFarland to inquire about the crashed vehicle and McFarland said, “Somebody got your deer.” McFarland went on to explain that a woman had hit the deer near the area where Lear had been hunting and the state highway patrol gave a receipt for the deer carcass to James Jarvis from Bentonville, who happened to be passing by at the time because the driver who hit the deer didn’t want it. Wanting to see if he could recover his deer, Lear paid a visit to the state highway post in Georgetown on Monday and they called Jarvis and left a message for him to
contact McCoy. Jarvis called McCoy Monday evening and Lear explained the circumstance of his unfortunate hunt. He described the deer and fact that the arrow was still lodged in the deer’s carcass helped sway Jarvis that it was indeed the buck Lear had arrowed that Saturday morning and agreed to give the bucks head and rack to McCoy. Fortunately, the buck’s rack was not damaged by the collision and that someone local with a big heart was there on the scene to take ownership of the carcass, otherwise it could have been lost forever and left McCoy with a big mystery as to what did happen to the buck. Officially the deer is listed “killed by an auto” and luckily Lear received a transfer of ownership paper from Jarvis. McCoy’s big non-typical buck he shot with a crossbow Saturday morning is now officially a road kill. No word yet as to the condition of the car.

EDITING OUT BLINDNESS GENES
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a group of genetic disorders that causes cells in the light-sensing retina to degenerate, which leads to loss of night vision and progressive loss of the visual field that leads to “tunnel vision.” While some RP patients retain their central vision and a restricted visual field into their 50s, others experience significant vision loss in early adulthood. Eventually, most individuals with RP will lose most of their sight. However, promising news tells of a genome therapy technique, CRISPR, that is being tested as a possible way of saving the sight of people with inherited eye diseases. CRISPR edits out and replaces the gene causing the disease, after which the corrected cells are injected into the eye. In addition to innova-
tive therapies, a number of services and devices are available to help people with vision loss carry out daily activities and maintain their independence. In addition to eye care professionals, it’s important to have help from a team of experts, which may include occupational therapists, orientation and mobility specialists, and certified low vision therapists. At KENTUCKY EYE INSTITUTE, our courteous staff is professional and welltrained. We’re located at 1937 Old Main St., Suite 1, Old Washington, where we encourage regular eye examinations 606.759.7883 or 800.658.7282. We specialize in "EYE CARE FOR ALL AGES." P.S. The CRISPR technique for treating inherited forms of blindness has yet to be tested on humans.
