Never have I called on police to eject a disorderly dog. Never has a dog set fire to a bed with a cigarette. Never have I found a motel blanket or a towel in a dog's suitcase. Nor a whiskey ring on a dresser. Sure the dog is welcome. If the dog will vouch for you, come along, too." With an uneasy feeling, most of us have sadly watched farmlands decrease in the county, region and country. Perhaps UNCLE SAM has been so busy watching Russia’s military development, he's overlooking something else important. The National 4H Council exchanged agricultural specialists with Russia and here are some of the things they found. In Russia, electricity, gas and other fuels are furnished to farms at half the regular consumer price. Entire sprinkler systems are installed for thousands of acres at no charge.

A POPULAR local couple arc JEAN and JEFF THOMPSON, of Shawcrest. Both are on the staff at KURTZ’S Jeff lived in Florida for many years where his uncle, CHARLIE THOMPSON, gained fame no fisherman had enjoyed since JONAH. He caught the world’s largest fish some 180 miles south of MIAMI. Witnesses said Thompson battled 36 houn and shot the monster with five harpoons and 150 bullets. A Smithsonian expert identified the 45 foot long fish as a whale shark of the Rhinodontiae family, previously known only in the Indian ocean. Notedy ever knew how much the whopper actually weighed, but it was said to have broken a marine railway designed to hold 30,000 pound boats. For years the fish was carted around the U.S. on a railroad flat car for display to paying crowds...
