In front of them were, I assume, the child's mother and grandmother.. . . . Periodically, the little girl would cry out, softly, in pain. The man would then kiss her on the head and she would be quiet. Grandma asked Mom, "What is he doing to her?" Mom replied, "I don't know," and "I don 't thi~k he is hurting her." Thts went oo for some time. My history of 20 years working with the Welfare Administration leads me to think the man was either nipping her ear or pinching her thigh just enough to hurt. I no longer have any legal standing, and my mstmct - to walk over, point my finger and say, "Qutt hurting that child!"probably would have started a fight with no positive result. I didn' t even know for sure what he was doing. What could I have done in this situation? Concerned Patron Dear Concerned: It can be dangerous to accuse someone of abuse, even in public, especially since you don't know what he was actually doing. However, the~ is nothing wrong with saymg, neutrally, "Your little girl seems to be in pain. I hope she's OK." This calls attention to his actions, lets him know he isn't getting away with anything, and makes Mom and Grandma more aware. It takes nerve to do this, and you could be mistaken, but we wish more people had the courage to speak up when they see something wrong. Dear Annie: Our annual vacation is coming up soon. We take our boat to a lake several hours away and are , joined by my brother's family for a week of boating and quienimes around the campfire. My brother also brings a boat The problem is our other brother, "Doug." For the last-two years, Doug and his family have invited themselves to come with · us. They don't have a boat, and expect the rest of us to share Community events ours and all the accessories. We enjoy their company qt other family gathenngs, but this is an invasion . Crowding into our tents and our boats detracts from my family's chance to have time alone. How do we stop these visits withbut causing a family argument and hurt feelings·J Not My Brother's Vacation Guide Dear Vacation Guide: You can reschedule your vacation at another time and not inform Doug, but we opt for a more direct approach. Tell Doug you like having him around, but the accom- . modations jll'e too crowded. · Insist that he bring his own tent and other accessories. Obviously, a boat is expensive and yours may need to be shared, but we think you can put up with it once a year for the sake of family peace. Dear Annie: I read the letter from "Need to Get Away," whose husband was reluctant to travel due to his colostomy. I can sympathize · with that husband. I had colostomy surgery in 1999. When I travel, I use a closed-end colostomy pouch that is disposable. I carry an extra pouch inside . a small . plastic bag in my pocket When I need to change, I remove the old bag, place it m the plastic bag for disposal, and attach the new bag. I have done this in airplane restrooms and many other places throughout the .U.S. and Europe. It is simple and 'discreet Until I was told about the closed-end pouches and how well they worked, I did not travel either. This information changed my life. Living a Normal Life in Spite of a Problem Dear Living: Thank you for providing this informa" tion. We .hope others with the same problem will try your suggestion.

'VIEWS Pleasurable (Queen' visitor shares impressions Dear Editor: The purpose of this letter is to let the folks in Gallipolis know how impre<Sed we were with their town and citizens. We were on the M1ssiss1ppi Queen which stopped there on July 27. The town gave us a warm welcome and colorful departure. The Model A Club members even took some of us on a short mlc up to the cemetery to show off their antique cars and the view of your town. When we departed, the riverbank was filled with people and balloons which they released as we smled away. It v.as a ve1y 111ce, ll;mching gesture. Afte1 om cruise ended in Pittsburgh, we drove home via way of Gallipolis and stopped at the Bob Evans there. We ' had a wmtress named Carol who was perhaps one of the best mall of the restaurants rvc patronized. My thanks to all the tulks in Galhpolis who made our stops so enJoyable.

They understand that some of the1r co-religiOnists are remorsele" killers But not all Muslims think that way. and ccrtmn· ly the ACLU and other farleft groups oppose profiling. They fight hard against most strategies . des1gned to make terror dttacks more diff1culi.

Looking back, the actions of Presidents Clinton and Bush in hi s fi1 st year pretty much 1f!-11DI ed the grow111g terror threat fmm the Muslim world .

I recently spent a few days there, and I can honestly say that it was comparable to experiences I' ve had in sophisticated, prestige travel destinations such as Paris, in the sense that I was not once engulfed by hog manure . . I was concerned about this, however. The second day 1 was in Iowa, the top story on the front page of The Des Moines Register was headlined, "Thousands of fish killed by manure spill.'' The story stated that a leak in a storage basin at a major hog farm had resulted in "a mammoth hog manu're spill," estimated at 1.5 million gallons, which - to give you a sense of magnitude - is more than 11ouse of the Representatives produces m a week. The story said that state officia,ls were especially the alarmed because manure spilled into a section of the Iowa River considered to be "one of the most prized canoe areas ot the state.'' I can see where it could put a real crimp in a person's canoeing vacation.

Meigs and Mason count~es . ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER COLUMBUS The •Ohio Democratic Party said Friday it will not try to slop a Republican state senator's bid to replace U. S. Rep. Bob Ney in the race for his congressional seat, after nearly .two weeks of threatening to challenge her right to run. The Democrats had said that Joy Padge tt was not eligible to be on the ballot because of Ohio laws that prohibit losers in pri maries from running in a ge neral election and forbid candidates from running for state and federal office in the same election. Padgett lost th l' GOP primary in May for lieutenant governor. However, the Democrats changed their · minds because Padgett will ha ve challengers in a special pri mary on Sept. 14 and avoiding a lawsuit will save money for .their fall campaigns,, party spoke's man Brian Rothenberg said. "Because of this process, the Republicans have been forced to have a primary out in the open," he said. Padgett said the rea·! reason the Democrats backed off was they knew they would lose. Padgett doesn' t fall under either provi sion the Democrats were considering taking her to co urt over, she said. "This is beca use they knew thi s was a wasted effort," she said.

Ney denies wrongdoing and has not been charged. Padge tt, of Coshocton, was picked for the ballot by Ney and House Majority Leader John B.oehner. Democrats critici zed the move and threatened to take Padgett and the GOP to court. Republicans insisted the provisions in election law did not aftect Padgett. A message seeking comment was left for Ohio GOP spokesman John McClelland. Democrats , decided against a lawsuit after consulting with party lawyers, the Democratic · .Congressional Campaign Committee and the campaign of Zack Space, the party's candidate for Ney 's seat, Roth enberg said . Seven candidates have filed petitions to challenge Padgett in the Sept. 14 primary, but only six of them will appear on the ballot. They include Ralph Applegate of Columbus, who lost in the May 2 Democratic primary. and J:u11es Brodbelt Hanis, a Zanesville financial analyst who received less than one third of the vote in the GOP primary against Ncy.

Andrade might . be the mo.st relaxed of the bunch, since he didn't even expect to be here and has never fared well in the majors. The last time he made the cut in a major was the 2003 PGA Championship at Oak Hill - as the seventh alternate, no less. And if he wasn't at Medinah, he: d be picking up the kids from school, cooking out and tackling a honey-do Iist. ''I'm 42 years old. I've been doing this for 19 years," Andrade said. "It's the PGA Championship. Why not me? Why not have fun with it and enjoy it? It's not like guys like me get in this position every single major. We have a hell of a leaderboard, and I'm looking forward to continuing to have a great time."

The Bengals receiver's bid to celebrate, though. was · denied. It didn't matter much. ·because there was enough high-scoring cmcrtainment ·in Cincinnati· s mean-nothing 44-3 1 win over the ·Buffalo Bills on Friday night. . Johnson and the defense led the way. helping Cincinnati produce the thirdmost points in a preseason game m team history - and most since a 45-0 win over Tampa Bay jn 1977. The always-colorful receiver, hard to miss sporting a new golden mohawk. he debuted last weekend, had five catches for ·73 yards and a 9-yard touchdo'.l(n reception . The only thing missing was a TO celebration ·after he caught Anthony Wright's pass in the left corner for the Bengals' go-ahead score 8 minutes into the second quarter. Johnson's request to put .on a show was turned down by an ofticial because of the NFL's new rules limiting celebrations. "I asked the ref if I could celebrate ," said Johnson , who pleaded with the official immediately after the catch . "I offered to pay his fine. He said. 'No."' At least Johnson made a contribution after being held · without a catch in a 19-3 win against Washington last weekend. "Great play by Anthony. Great scramble. Great focus. Great throw," Johnson said of starter Carson Palmer's fill-in. Palmer has practiced in training camp but is still recovering from a severe left knee injury. Wright finished 9-of-19 for 99 yards and a touchdown in the first half, which ended with the Bengals ahead 27-17. Cincinnati's defense played a big role, fmcing four tum'overs in the first half, returning two of them for touchdowns on Dexter Jackson's 72-yard fumble return and Keiwan Ratliff's 26-yard interception return. The Bills (0-2), coming off a 14-13 loss at Carolina last weekend. had a mixed outing. The 44 points they allowed is the fifth -most by a Bills team in preseason, <111d most since a 45-14 loss at Chicago in 1985. · Willi s McGahee was 'the bright. spot with nine rushes for 88 yards, including an electrifying 61-yard touchdown run on a power sweep to the left. The touchdown made ·up for McGahee's miscue on. the previous possession, when his fumble led to Jackson 's touchdown·. Quarterback J.P. Losman, however, had an up-anddown outing in his first preseason start, and after coach Dick Jauron named him the front-runner for the No. I job this week. · Losman finished 7-of-11 for 134 yards passing, but lost two fumbles and an interception, leading to 13 Bengals points. His worst pass was a quick out intended for Josh Reed, which was intercepted by Ratliff, who jumped the roure with 6 minutes left in the second quarter. Losman responded on the next possession. hitting Lee Evans in stride up the right sideline fur a 46-yard touchdown. It's unclear whether Losman did enough to secure the starting job in what has been an offseasonlong competition with Kelly Holcomb and Craig Nail. "He's got to protect the football," Jauron said. "We've got to be forcibly patient. We' ve seen him perform. He's got a strong arm. ... Sometimes, he holds the ball too long. But we' ll just keep working and moving forward.'' ' lt was u_nacceptable," Losman said. The Bengals were without s.everal starters, including both offensive 'tackles Levi Jones (sprained ankle) and 1 • • TOM WITHERS National Football League Preaeason Glance ASSOCIATED PRESS CLEVELAND Overlooked on draft day and underrated for most of his career, little Jerome Harrison is making big plays for the Cleveland ijrowns . The 5-tooi-9 rookie running back caught a 31-yard touchdown pass in · the fourth quarter and finished with 107 total yards Friday night as the Browns rallied for a 20-16 win over the Detroit Lions. With Cleveland down 16, 10, third-string quarterback Derek Anderson hit Harrison. in stride over the middle for the go-ahead score. Harrison, who rushed for I ,900 yards at Washington State in 2005, ran for 53 yards on nine carries and had six receptions for 54. Browns tight end Kellen Winslow had three catches for 37 yards in his second game · back after missing most of the past two seasons because of l.eg 'injuries. Harrison has emerged as a multipurpose threat\ for the Browns ( 1-1 ), who looked much better on both sides of the ball than they did a week ago in a listless 20-7 loss at Philadelphia.

The Browns also got big plays from rookie linebackers . Kamerion Wimbley, D'Qwell Ja<:ksun and nose tackle Babatunde Oshinowo. Wimbley had a sack, Jackson made an interception and Oshinowo had a late sack as Detroit was driving. Lions starter Jon Kitna played the entire first half, completing 7 of 12 passes for 94 yards and one TO. Kitna 's passing was one of the few bright spots as the bions first-team offense managed just 3 yards rushing on nine attempts against' Cleveland's defensive starters. Frye bounced back from throwing an interception on Cleveland's first possession by hitting Dennis Northcutt for a 5-yard TO pass in the first quarter to put the Browns ahead 7-0. After taking a low snap from new center Ross Tucker, Frye scrambled to buy himself time before zipping hi s pass over the middle to Northcutt, who has been his favorite target during camp. ·Frye's next attempt didn't go a; well.

Crawford hit a two-run single that capped a threerun pinth inning and lifted the Devil Rays over the Cleveland Indians 6-5 Friday night. · "That's what you play for situations," those Crawford said. "I was just trying to put the ball in play because there was just one out. It felt great because we needed that win as a team. It was just a great feeling." Crawford's one-out single with the bases loaded off Jason Davis helped the Devil Rays bounce back, from a 5-1 deficit and win for just the lOth time •in 33 games since the All-Star break. Travis Lee opened the ninth with a double off Brian Sikorski ( 1-1) and took third on pinch-httter Dioner Navarro's single. One out later, Rocco Baldelli 's single cut the Devil Rays' deficit.to 5-4. Baldelli's grounder, which looked like a potential game-ending double play off the bat, took a bad hop past shortstop Jhonny Peralta. "I was thinking the game was pretty much over," Baldelli said. "Then l heard the crowd cheer a little bit, and I looked up and the ball was in center field.'' Davis relieved and loaded the bases with a walk to Ben Zobrist. Crawford follow ed . with his. single down the right-field line. Tampa Bay is 3-64 this season when trailing after eight innings. "Any time you lose in that fashion, it's just all the tougher," Cleveland manager Eric Wedge said. The Indians have lost 14 times when ahead after six innings this season, and seven with leads into the ninth. "Every day is a new day." Sikorski said. "Today 's over with, and we have to get ready for tomorrow." Seth McClung . (4- 11) pitched a perfect nimh, completiitg a seven-hitter. Starter Casey Fossum struck out 10 in 6 1-3 innings, Al1owing live runs, six hits and three walks. Travis Hafner. homered· and drove in three runs for the Indians. C. C. ' Sabathia allowed three runs and eight hits in eight innings. "You have to feel for all those guys." Wedge said. "C.C. pitched a great ballgame, and some guys had some good offense nights. It still takes a collective effort in that final inning to finish the game off." Sabathia, who came up short in his bid for a major league-leading fi£th complete game, threw 105 pilches. "It's frustrating that our team is not winning," Sabathia said. ''I could care less about my record. I just want our team,to win and for our guy s to do good." Hafner's 36th homer put the Indians ahead in th e first - his 14th against a lefthanded pitche r. It aho wa:, his team-record 33 rd homer .as a designated hitter. one more than he hit last year and Ellis Burks had in 20Q2 . Ben Zobrist's RBI grounder tied it in the bot tom hal f. but Hafner put the Indians .ahead 3- 1 in the third with a two-run si ngle.

Dame! Boone's· name was the first prominent person to have his name connected with the gi nse'ng trade. It was Jesuit missionaries in Canada that first discovered American ginseng growing wild and they were rather shocked that American ginseng was identical to Asian ginseng. The root, or rhizome, of the ginseng plant was highly valuable in China for its curative properties. Marco Polo wrote about .ginseng at'ter his travels to the Far East in 1274 saying that fresh ginseng has invig. orating and stimu.lant .power. What drove the American market for gin' seng was the over-harvest of · the .root in China. . Americans really didn't have much use for the plant, except to.export it, until the late 20th century. . In the fall of 1787, Daniel Boone owned a trading post at Limestone, Ky., now Maysville. He and his children dug out some 15 tons of ginseng that fall. Some later historians say that Boone probably had 15 tuns of ginseng, not 15 IOns. A tun in old English was a barrel. It WQuld be hard to imagine . that one family couldharvest 30,000 pounds of ginseng in one fall. In the Daniel Faragher biography of Boone. we read: "Boone was no sooner home, however, than with his boys as p<>lemen and Rebecca as cook , he piloted a keelboat back upstream loaded with fifteen tons of ginseng root. w sang.' as everyone on the frontier called it. fetched a good price from American apothecaries and shippers who sent it to China. Daniel Morgan and Jesse Boone had been working all winter to assemble the cargo_ On the Ohio, as they attempted to cross a strong current at the head of an island just above Point Pleasant, the boat careened on a drifting log and began to fill with water." The island in question was probably Eight Mile Island across from Cheshire. Faragher continues with the story, " No one ws injured bul the cargo was nearly ruined, and Boone steered the awkward vessel into port in a dour mood. But here .the . Boones spent several delightful days with the family of an old friend, John Vanbibber, a man Boone had once rescued. in a Kentucky snowstorm and who was happy to return the favor." After several days, the Boones set out again, passing Pittsburgh and reaching Redstone on the Monongahela "in cherry blossom season." as Nathan remembered. Then it was overland along what later became the Cumberland Road to Hagerstown. Md., where Boone sold the gin: seng to Thomas Hart, who had establi shed a trading operation there . Because of the condition of the goods, he did nut r.ecei ve half the price he original-ly had expected." It seems that fate may have played u part in the next phase of Boone's life as the unexpected stay with the Vanbibbers and a trip back home to Exeter, Pa., a ft~r selling off the ginseng, convinced Boone to move to the the Kanawha River. In late 1788, Boone opened a trading post near present day Point Pleasant, W.Va. By the way, wild ginseng · hunters in Ohio last year harvested 8,000 pounds, which brought in $2 million. The plant is now grown as a domesticated plant with Canada sending 5 million pounds into the market last year. (James Sands is a special correspondent · for the . Sunday Times-Sentinel.

FOR AP WEEKLY FEATURES Andreas Froese is madly in love with trash, especially plastic soda bottles. To him, they are not only a thing of beauty but a means of solving some of the problems vexing Honduras. his adopted country. Over the past five years, Froese has built nearly a dozen houses with sand-tilled soda bottles, creating humbler versions of tiled Mediterranean vi lias complete with bottle top mosaics. Froese: a thin , intense matt, and a construction worker by trade, had his first · brush with garbage while restoring old houses in his native. Germany. "I had to go to the dump to get wood that would match." he said. Upon arriving in , Honduras 12 years ago. Froese was struck by the country's profound poverty · and environmental degradation. Drawn to green building and eco-lourism, he had found himself in 2000 working in an ceo-park. While cleani'ng up after a typically huge Latin American Easter celebration, he realized that something had to be done with bottles . . "We realized we had more plastic bottles than organic rubbish ," he . said to Smithsonian magazine. "If you have 25,000 people having fun and drinking, you have 20.000 bottles.'' · Froese began a for-profit . business, Eco-Te,, to introduce training in clean technologies specifically building wi·th plastic soda bottlesinto poor communities. This technology not only provides constructions with sustainable features like composting toi lets and green roofs at half the cost of · regular construction, but creates small businesses. Those help promot.e, long-term selfr.cliancevital in a .country that rec'eives $557 million in aid each year. But working with trash requires a shift in attitude: "You have to show people that it's quick, it's safe and they can make money with it," Froese said. Besides houses. Eco-Tee has built cisterns and two whimsical . eco-tourism offerings: a camping igloo and a replica of a Roman aqueduct. According . to Froese, the bottles that make up 70 percent of these far constructions are stronger than the concrete blocks used in normal construction. They'll last for 300 years, he says, and can support a 36-ton green roof without difficulty. This summer, Froese oversaw projects on Honduras' Bay Islands. On the largest, Roatan, he worked with government en,vironmentl\1 educators and the children of the Fausto Miguel Alvarez !School to build a 3,500-liter water tank in the schoolyard. $CASH$ No Hassle, No Credit Check J.

The captain died in 1622. and the ship was probably broken up for scrap. Fifty-two of the I02 settlers had died that tirst terri ble winter. Even their Governor Carver died in April of 1621. He was William replaced by Bradford, whose wife had drowned, possibly a suicide. They had left their 3-yearold son in England. A second ship, · the in Fortune. arrived December of 1621 with more passengers and no food. There was a terrible shortage of food during the first year, and the settlers would haye starvec\ if not for the help of the Indians. whose own numbers had been decimated bv the plague, carried by 'earlier explorers. There was a marked shortage of women in the colony: at one point there were 66 men and 16 women, so single orphans. such as Priscilla Mullins, had a wide choice of potential husbands. · Squanto, tradi tionally regarded as a hero. tried to turn the Pi Igrim> ~<gaim t Massasoit, the sachem , and his tribe. Squanto died my,teriously. po;sibly poisoned for causing trouble between the Pilgrim s and the Indians. There was a fiN Thanksgiving (in 162 I), and it was altcnded by lndians.

There are many cherished myths about the>e hardy settlers. but, in truth, the times became quite violent and bloody. The children of the original Pilgrims became too · interested in land and becoming rich . They convihced the Indians to sell them land cheaply and soon began pushing them off their native habitat.· Philip. son of Ma ~sosoi t. began attacking English settlemems in what became King Philip's War betweeil June of 1675 and August of 1676. More than 5,000 lives were lost in the war, a huge percentage of the colonies' population. Fighting raged from Plymouth to Maine . Several tribes had been Christianized and fought their own race beside the descendants of the Pilgrims. The author has meticu- iln"IY resc.tr.:hed this subject. and there is ample evidence ror his (:Ondusions. Perhaps the saddest part is that the later 'ettlers shipped over a thousand of the Indian inen off to the' Caribbean '" slave~. There are heroes on both sides and a few voices of reason, amotlg them one fkn jamin Church, perhaps America·' first frontiersman, who fought bravely but tried to treat the Ind ians with justice. Philbrick does not discount the courage, reso~rceful­ ness and determination of inany of the settlers, namely William Bradford and Mary Rowlandson , who was kidnapped by the Indians and suffered much, but lived to write of her captivity.

"I'm not an author," Lipari said in an interview at the home she shares · in this wealthy Cleveland suburb with her· sister, Virginia Curro, 88. "I'm someone who writes from the heart." The book, the first of a planned series retelling biblical stories, is a modest , venture, published by Oak Manor Publishing Inc. of Manchester, N.H., a oneman publishing hpuse that has a stable of five or six authors with about 12 books in print. Lipari's .book debuted in June and has sold several hundred copies, mostly to her children for reselling. Oak Manor's John Greene says that a few hundred copies are in print - he would not be specitic and he's trying to get the book listed on Internet sales sites such as Barnes and Noble. He hopes it will ·be stocked by religious bookstores. Lipari, dressed in a black and white pants suit with pearl earnings and necklace, sat with one leg crossed over the other in front a spacious marble fireplace, detailing her journey of faith from a Catholic upbringing, a survey of other religious traditions and a return to her childhood faith with a determination to study the Bible at the urging of a fundamentalist PageCs times wishes for boring quiet lime.

The lure of genealogy is the lure of a mystery- it i,, in fact, a stud y of "history with a mystery." In order to trace one's family. the indi" vidual researcher will learn a great deal about the hi ;torical events which took plm:c during the ancestor\ lives - from a tlood to a migration to a war (civil or revolutionary). Understanding history helps people to trace their ancestors from other countries to Gallia County to the western parts of the United States - or back. Genealogy researchers are dedicated, detailed . and derive great pleasure from solving a mystery -.• the elusive birth or death certifie<tte. the missing ancestor, the reason for a name change, the will and inventory of assets which provides the history of a particular piece of furniture ... the Iist goes on. Research ski lis learned in the search for family history can be taught to children at a younger age - and will benefit them throughout their education. Each year, the interest shown by youth in genealogy has increased, and the projects entered at the local county fair have improved.

Cali!'. - For every fragrant bunch of parsley th at foreman Eber Diaz picked, he stopped to rip out handful s of thick- stemmed weeds . crowding the crop. Normally, these field s wou.ld .be weed-free and workers would move easily up and down the ·rows, harvestin g organic vegetables and herbs meant for dinner tabl es around the country. But increased patrolling along the border with Mex ico, and easier, higherpaying jobs in the city have made farmworkers scarce . Farms across the c:ountry are feelin g the pinch, but organic farms like Lakeside Organic Gardens in the lush Pajaro Valley that grow handlabor-intensive. . picked crops are especially suffering. Fields go untended, and acres have to be torn up because there's no one to harvesuhem . "It's h ea rtbreakin ~." farmer Dick Peixoto sai d~ Farmers like Peixoto readily· admit their reliance on immigrants: legal or not. and they' re watching Washington's border crackdown with apprehension. More than half the nation 's· approximate!> I .8 million farmworkers arc here illegally, though growers in California believe the percentage here is probably muc:h higher. · The situation is so bad Peixoto has been forced to tear out nearl y 30 acres of vegetables, and has about I00 acres co mpromised by weeds. He estimated hi s loss so far to be about $200,000 - worse than anything he 's seen in his 31 years of farming. Growers check documents provided by prospective workers to the best of their ability, all the while knowing that fakes are easy · to find ami that the industry couldn't make it without the labor of undocumented workers. This dependence on immigrant labor has turned farmers into strong advocates of immigration reform. They' re pushing hard for a program that would allow guest workers to enter the country legally to work with employers who are waiting, as spelled out in one of the proposals that's stalled in Washington. "The government says we have to get rid of these undocumented workers, but they don' t have an answer for us." Peixoto said. "How are we supposed to do this?" Traditional farmers even growers of delicate, hand-picked .crops like the berries of the Pajaro Valley · - can get by with up to 20 perc:ent fewer workers. Their crops might hang on the vine a little later, and they mi'ght have to shell out extra cash to keep workers in the fi eld longer. But at least they can wipe out .the weeds with chemicals, and focu s their work force on harvesting and other tasks that can't be put off. Conventional farmer John Eiskamp hired 3.20 workers for the harvest at his 180acre ras pberry and blac kben-y farm. He could have used an extra 30 to 50 work- ers, but made do by paying workers to put in 12- or 14hour days for weeks during the .peak of harvest, and postponing trellising, weeding and covering the plants. The work is "delicate, labor intensive, and very time consuming," he said . " It's a challenging industry even without labor shortage and heat waves." With stiff competition for workers, organic growers face the extra challenge of trying to lure workers to do particularly backbreaking tasks. Members of Diaz's crew ·were bending at the waist to pull weeds by hand, a task that needs to be done several times during the growing season. And harvesting is done the same way. "No one wants to do this work." Diaz said. "I've never seen a situation where it was so ~ifficultto lind people." The labor shortage is a serious problem , and it's getting worse as the government adds more law enforcement to the border without creating avenues for workers to come in legally. said Tim Chelling, spokesman for Western Grower1, which represents about 3,000 fruit and vegetable farmers. Some growers are moving parts of their operations to Mexico; others, like Peixoto, who have invested years in getting their land clear of chemicals so they can grow organically, are having to tough it ·out, he said. · "We need the workers; they need the work ," he sa id . "We just need to figure out some way to make thi s happen for everyone."

"You're probably looking at deep purple. dark ' red, burgundy or rich chocolate for what the industry calls 'black' ," she said. "Many of these plants look black in the right color light.

Over much of the country, black-eyed . Susans have spread open their petals in sunny fields. laughing off summer heat and unfa1.ed by dry spells. This flower' s not finicky about soil either. thriving almost everywhere it can grab a half a day or more of sun. With such · qualitie s, it's no wonder that black,eyed Susans have been moved into flower gardens. usually as a short-lived perennial. Sow seeds in early spsing to enjoy blossoms begi nnin g that same season. Sow seeds now and enjoy blossoms beginning next year. Despite· individual plants being short-lived, there 's no need to grow new plants every year or two. because the plants reseed themsel ves naturally. To collect seeds yourself from wild plants. cut off fading llower heads. then let seeds finish ripen ing in an open paper bag in an airy. wa,nn room .
