Reporting
self~employ· ment
earnings on income tax returns
BY ED PETERSON
Social Security Manager,
Athens
It's tax filing time and if you're
self-employed, it's up to you to
make sure you report your earnings
accurately and on time for Social
Security credit
Otherwise, when it's time to collect Social Security benefits, you
may not get all the benefits you are
entitled to rece,ive. Social Security
benefit amounts are calculated on
the earnings reported to your Social
Security record.
You are considered selfemployed if you operate a trade,
business or profession, either by
yourself or as a partner. Selfemployed persons do not receive
. Form W-2s listing their earnings.
Thus, self-employed persons whose
net earnings are $400 or more in a
year must report those earnings on
an IRS Schedule SE along with their
regular tax form IRS-I 040.
The. Social Security tax rate for
1998 (and 1999) .is 15.3 percent on
self:employment net earnings up to
$72,600. If your net earnings exceed
$72,600, you continue to pay the .
Medicare portion of the Social Security tax, which is 2.9 percent, on the
rest of your earnings.
If you need more information
about self-employment income
reporting, call our toll-free number,
800-772-1213. or IRS 's toll free
number 1-800-829-1040

route and assured council members that "if we
break it, we pick it up."
Also meeting with council was Cable Vision
representative Ann McCoy who fielded questions
about cable television service in the village.
Council President John Musser asked why a ·
Cable Vision application, for people wanting
senior citizen discounts, asks for financial information.
·
She said the questionnaire has been updated
and that the financial information is no longer
requested. However, seniors must provide some
~f their age in order,to receive the discoul't'
Council members also said they were unhappy
with the cost of the service,
"I'm close to the point where I'm getting ready
to get Primestar," said Councilman Dave Ball~rd .
"I'm getting tired of it really."
McCoy said lhe company tries to notify its
customers before a price increase goes into affect,
but added that it still comes as a shock for a lot of
people.

Street Supervisor Jack Krautter briefly discussed the ongoing battle of the potholes, noting
that Sunday's snowfall greatly . aggravated the
pothole situation in the village.

He also said council needs to hire somebody to
help out in th~ cemetery for the summer since
work will start there next month. Gates are also
being installed at the cemetery.
Musser discussed the possibility of a grantfunded bicycle path connected the villages of
Pomeroy and Middleport.
As a first step, council approved spending up
to $7,000 on a feasibility ~tudy for the propoSed
path which would go from Nye Avenue in

Hope dwindles in search 'or,dead at Amtrak derailment site
By JAMES WEBB
By As1oclated Prus Wrtfer
BOURBONNAIS, Ill. (AP) - Reseue crews
clim~d through a twisted, charred rail car today,
hoping to find survivors after Amtrak's City of
New Orleans struck a truck and derailed, killing at
least 12 people. ·
"We've removed 12 bodies," Capt. Ed SL
Louis of the Bourbonnais Fire Protection District
said this morning. "We believe there to be six to
eight more peopl~."
Rescuel'li wn focusing their search in one of
the sleeper cars, said St. Louis, adding that Amtrak
officials were still trying to determine if there were
214 people on the train. or 216. Eighteen crew
members were on .board.
He said 196 survivors born the train had been
taken to hospitals or a local school for treatment by
the Red Cross. More lhan 100 were taken to hospitals and at least 11 were in critical condition,
''I was trying to go to sleep. Then all of the sudden everything just started crashing and catching
on fire and people hollering and running. It was
awful," said Blanche Jones, a passenger from
. Memphis, Temt
"We was trying to get out. We couldn't get out,
couldn't find a way out That was the most devastating thing of all," Jones said as she limped out of
a school that served as a temporary shelter.
"By the grace of God, I just went down a stair·
way and found a way to get out and let everybody
know how to get out," she said.
The train, bound from Oti~ago to New Orleans,
careened off the tracks shortly after 9:30 p.m.
Monday after it slammed into a semitrailer loaded
with heavy steel bars at a crossing SO miles south

of Chicago. The truck was leaving a nearby Birm·
ingham Steel Co. facility.
"The windows rattled," said Don O' Dell, who
lives a block away from the scene and was watch·
. ing TV when he heard the crash. "We got up and
looked around to see what was going on."
Crew members clambered atop overturned cars
and two derailed engines -one was split in half
- searching through an eerie, sinoky haze . for
trapped passengers. Firefighters doused flames on
one of the engines and another car.
Alan RamseY• chief of the fire departm~nt in
nearby Herscher,. said eight cars derailed, with
three of them ending up on their sides: Amtrak officials said two engines and II cars derailed.
Police Chief J.ooeph Beard said most of the
injured were in one sleeper car, which Amtrak officials said was behind the engines and a baggage
car. Some of the rescuers peeled off their coats for
the victims,
Authorities said 101 people were taken to haspitals in nearby Kankakee. One was airlifted to
Loyola Medical Center in suburban Oticago. O(
the injured, 11 were listed in critical condition and
at least 19 in serious condition.
The injured included a person with an amputat·
ed foot, another with head wounds and others with
severe burns.
The condition of the truck driver wasn 't imme·
diately known, Beard said. The cab of the truck
was not struck by the train . .
Authorities said they were investigating
whether gates and lights were working before the
collision.
Investigators from the National Transportation
Safety Board were also being called to th~ scene.

LITI1.E ROCK, Ark. (AP) - The judge in
Susan McDougal's trial ruled today that prosecutors
may show 40 minutes of Hillary Rodham Ointon's
previously secret videotaped grand jury testimony.
Over the objections of Mrs. McDougal's lawyer,
U.S. District Judge George Howard Jr. agreed with
Kenneth Starr's piosec~tors that McDougal lawyer
Mark Geragos had opened the door to showing
Mr!i. Ointon's testimony.
Geragos suggested Thursday in questioning FBI
agent Mike Palkus that prosecutors had never both·

ered to ask questions of the first lady that the investigators now want Mrs. McDougal to answer about
a disputed two-decade-old loan in.the name of Bi11
Ointon.
Prosecutor Mark Barrett stressed that Mrs, Ginton's testimony is not being shown to prove the
truth of what the first lady said, but simply to show
that the prosecutors did ask her questions about a
$27,600 loan in her husband 's ,name and ho'!' th e
loan was paid off.
Mrs, Ointon testified in a deposition in Washington on April 25, 1998, two days after Mrs.
McDougal appeared before the Whitewater grand

jury in Little Rock and refused to answer questions.:
Mrs. Ointon's videotaped te5timony was shown to:
the grand jury in Lihle Rock on April 29.
.
Her testimony has been secret for nearly a year.
Prosecutor Julie Myers said two parts of Mrs.
Ointon 's testimony would be shown- a section of
about35 minutes and another of about five minutes.
Mrs. McDougal's legal team was reviewing the ·
videotape this morning before it was to be played in

WHAT NEXT?

Fine line between frugality
and fanatic foolishness
By Ohio Sen. Mike Shoemaker

"Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them .not: for such
is the kingdom of God."
·
Many of us remember that verse from a Sunday School lesson adman. ishing adults not to stand in the way of children. We shudder daily as we
watch that rule being violated.
, .
The news is full of stories of children being abused, neglected and forgotten by those upon whom they most depend. Just days ago, the same scenario unfolded in the Ohio Senate.
•
A Marion county legislator presented a bi11 before the lawmakers that
would encourage adoptions in Ohio: The proposal would give a $500 tax
credit (actually $500, not a deduction that would yield less) on Ohio's
income tax return to a family adopting a youngster. The bill was very sim. pie and straight-forward.
. An amendment by a Dayton senator, was then unveiled to addrc:sS the
procedure for lower income families .
· The statistics show that more adoptive parents are iri the lower income
brackets (below $30,000) than in the higher pay range for challenging adoptions. More the 2,000 children in our state have no place to call a real home
because of their particular unique circumstances.
Physical problems, crack babies, mental retardation, sever mental health
disorders and long histories of abuse haunt the children who need a hug
more than anyone else. Children Service agencies everywhere struggle to
find fosterwplacements and permanent homes for these precious but fragile
creations.
The Day'ton amendment would have permitted the full $500 tax credit for
those making less than $30,000 per year.
The tax obligation would have been met by the credit and then the dif. ference refunded to the family. Then the ugly head of politics rose from the
ashes and the ·amendment was table (a cowardly procedure of not really voting against the issue but simply refusing to consider it) on a straight party
line vote.
Unfortunately, the children who have felt unwanted all their lives had that
fellf reinforced by the callousness of lawmakers whose real sensitivity
seemed to be closer to their backsides (where their wallets reside) than their
' hearts.
.
'
There is often a fine line between frugality and fanatic foolishness. ).think
. we crossed that line and turned our backs on the kids who depend on us.

Independent counsels will be back
By Morton Kondracke
Having both been burned, Republicans and.
Democrats are now pushing for the death of the
independent counsel statute. If it dies, though,
someday it will be resuscitated.
The law originally wa!; passed in the aftermath
of Watergate to ensure that a corrupt Justice
Department would not be in charge of investigating a corrupt administration.
Opponents of the law point out, quite correctly, that during Watergate itself there was no independent counsel statute on the books, yet justice
was done.
In spite of the fact that then-Attorney General
John Mitchell and other officials of the Justice .
Department were in cahoots with Richard Nixon
in the Watergate cover-up, the media and Congress successfully forced the appointment of a
Special Prosecutor, Archibald Cox.
And when Nixon fired Cox in the infamous
Saturday. Night massacre in October 1973, the
popular firestorm forced the appointment of a second prosecutor, Leon Jaworski, who successfully
carried on the investigation, putting many of
Nixon 's co-conspirators in jail.
Special prosecutors were authorized in the
post-Watergate Ethics in Government Act of 1978
. and have been reauthorized as recently as five
years ago in the independent counsel statute, but
recent experience leads both Republicans and
Democrats to want to go back to the old system.
One can hardly blame them .
Republicans cite the damage done by Iran-contra prosecutor Lawrence Walsh, who indicted former Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger in the
eve of the 1992 election in a move seemingly
designed to defeat then-President George Bush.
After he lo~t to ,Bill Clinton, Bush pardoned
Wein~rger.

Democrats, of course, cite Kenneth Starr, President Clinton's relentless pursuer, but also Donald
Smaltz. who spent S17 million in a failed effort to

1981-88 investigation, said that without independence pOlitical and bureaucratic pressure on a

would have halted the Whitewater prObe well
short of the Lewinsky case,
But the counsel who preceded Starr on Whitewater, Robert Fiske -- who served during a period
when the statute had lapsed in 1994 --said that he
functioned "100 percent as effectively as if I had
been appointed under the statute."
The American Bar Assn. has examined the
controversy and changed its mind from support
for the statute to opposition.
·.
Former prosecutor Steven Saltzburg of George
Washington University Law School, a member of
the ABA panel studying the issue, says that various "mend it" formulas are Hawed.
He says that time limits on the counsel's service invite stalling by the target and that restri.ctions on outside law practice by the counsel may
prevent top lawyers from serving and encourage
all-out pursuit of officeholders whether or not the
evidence warrants.
Saltzburg thinks that an independent COU11$el
also prevents Congress from doing its legitimate
oversight and investigative work, as committees
tend to avoid interfering with an ongoing prosecution.
Congressional committees, he says, could
have probed the cases of Espy and Interior Sec.
Bruce Babbitt and turned over their findings, , if
any, to ·the Justice Department.
These arguments are likely to prevail this yeir..

The Clinton administration, which testified in
favor of retaining the statute when it came up for
renewal five years ago, now is arguing for letting
it lapse this June 30.
.
.
, There are responsible voices arguing for its
retention, though -- for mending the statute, not
ending it. They have an uphill struggle convincing their colleagues in Congress, but their arguments are worth hearing.
Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., for instance, argues
that not all independent counsels have been loose

WASHINGTO~

(AP)- The states have amassed approximately $3 billion in unspent federal welfare money, but say they need to save the money
in case of an economic downturn and to provide special services to people
who need it most.
Under the overhaul approved in 1996, the federal government gives the
states a·set amount each year to take care of its poor rather than pay for each
person who needs public assistance as it did for 61 years. ·
The House Ways and Means Committee said Monday in a statement that
states have a total. of$6.2 billioJI in unspent welfare Jl)oney, but that counts
funds states have. already obligated for specific payments. Counting only
unobligated money, the total is just over $3 billion.
"The next phase of IA(elfare reform is the key to permanently lifting more
families .from poverty and giving them opportunities for brighter futures,"
Rep~ Nancy L. Johnson, R-Conn., chairwoman of the committee's welfare
·
panel, said in.a statement.
Johnson released a report by the Congreosional Research Service detailing the unspent money.
Republicans argue that states have enough money without new spending·
proposed by Pr.esident Clinton. In his budget, Clinton seeks billions of dollars to provide more child care and to offer job training for those hardest to

" Right now, I think we could go
out with 12 players, without the
coaches, and do a better job without
them," Vancouver guard Lee
Mayberry said Monday ni ght after
the Grizzlies lost their 12th in a r'ow,
110-84 to the Denver Nuggets .
Earlier in the day, the Nets
relieved Cali pari of ha s duties following a 3- 17 start. Assistant coaches
Johnny Davis , Jack Haley and Kenny
Gattison also were fired, and Don
Casey w1ll take over the team on an
1nterim basts.
As for Hill , the watch JS on.
The Gnzzlies haven 't wOn smce
Feb. 23 against the Lakers -' a vic·
tory that SJgnaled the end of Del
Harris' reign in Los Angeles.
' 'I'm not worried about my JOb,
I'm worrying about getting thi&gt; team
ready to play, " Hill said. " We have
to e•amine what we are domg as
coaches."
Antonio McDyess scored 21
points and reserves Cory Alexander
and Johnny Taylor had 14 points
apiece as the Nuggets came back
from their worst offensive performance of the season and ended· a
seven-game losang streak.
·
The Nuggets hit 12 of 22 shots in
the first quarter, and matters got only
slightly better in the second quarter
for the Grizzlies as Cory Alexander
scored seven points, two on threepointers, to help- Denver take a 56-39
lead at halftime ..
Chauncey Billups had 10 points in
the thard quarter as Denver maintained a 20-point lead for most the
peri od.
" To me, it was an absolute embarrassment not to compete at the beginning of the _game," Hill said. "It is
frustrating when it happens back-tohack ."
" It 's easy to blame the coaches
and I don't thank at is the coachang,"
Shareef Abdur-Rahim said, " We
aren't playing together and it showed
in thas game, 9ne we felt like we
should have been alile to gel back on
track."

get past Bulls
89-85 in overtime

By RICK GANO
CHICAGO.~' (AP) Good
defense or bat:f shooting? In this
lockout-shortened season full of
lousy basketball, it 's sometiiries hard
to tell .
Either way, the , Cleveland
Cavaliers earned their first victo,ry in
Chicago since 1994, beatmg the
rebuilt Bulls in overtime.
"In overtime we made a couple of
bl!skets and a couple of ·stops,"
Cleveland's Wesley Person said after
the Cavs downed the Bulls 89-85
Monday night. 'That 'was the big
difference - a couple of stops here
and there turned tbe game around ."
The Bulls who shot 35' percent
for the gam~. couldn't score for
almost six minutes down the stretch.
They missed their final .four shots
of regulation and 1Jleir first seven in
overtime, finishing the extra penod
2-for-11 .- Throw in four turnovers,
and the Bulls' ~ hot at establishing
their first twci-game winning streak
at the United Center th1 s season was
dashed.
" We just had some turnovers in
the fourth quarter and in overtime .
We've won a couple of these, but lost
more than our share " Bulls coach
Tim Floyd said .
'
" We just did a much better JOb in
the second half of gettin g after them ,
challeng in g them and not g1v ing
them as many easy shots as they got
in the first· half,'' Cleveland coach
Mike Fratello said .
' Cednc Henderson, who sank a
70-footer at the first-half buzzer,
made even a bigger play in overtime
when he "picked up a loose ball from
Toni Kukoc, drove for a basket and
converted a three-poant play to gave

the Cavs an 86-80 lead with I :04 to
go.
' "It was Henderson's -best game
this season. We required h'im to
.guard Kukoc, and that's a . to4gh
assignment. He did a little bit of, ,
everything tonight," Fratello.said.
"We 'hit the big shots wh&lt;;n we
had to , especially in overtime, "
Henderson said afler scoring a sea-·
son-high 22. '' It was a good game for
us mentally. I wasn't trying to force
anything."
Trailing 86-80, the Bulls finally
scored on Kukoc's three-pointer and .
a dunk by Dickey Simpkins.
The ·Bulls quickly foule~ Brevin
Knight, who made a pair of free
throws with just under 23 seconds to
play, giving Cleveland a 88-85 lead., ·
After Harper missed an awkward :
three-point attempt, Carie Blount making his Cavs' debut-. made one
of two fiee throws with 3.2 seconds ,
left.
.:
" We lost the ball more than a few. ·
tames. We missed free throws. We've
got to. figure it out ourselvt!s, find '
better shots, find a way to do it,"
Kukoc said afler shooting 8-of-24
while scori ng 22 points. "That 's not
happening right now. "
Chicago was 2-of- 17 from the
three-point line and just 21 -of-30
from the foul line.
.
Person scored a season-high 2 1 '
points for Cleveland. and Knight had · ·
16 assists. Shawn Kemp had 17'
points and II rebounds before foul ing out in overtime.
Harper stole the ball from Knight
twice in .the final I : 19 of regulation. ,
a~d Knight also mi ssed a lay up in the ;
clos ing seconds. Brent Barry had a· ,

.Senator urges halt to information exchanges ·a t weapons labs

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate Intelligence

tliat the effort erodes the wall
fl~tween church and state. ·
:· "It doesn 't fit e,verybody, but I

Mathes , · warden at the Newton
Correctional Facility, a' medium~ecurity prison in central Iowa
With about 750 inmates. '"This

In June , the Newton prison wi II
begin an intens ive, Bible-based
program designed to teach values
and keep prisoners la w-abiding
after' they are released.
The program , " lnnerChange
Freedom- Initiative," was devel oped by Prison Fellowship Ministrics; the Washington , D.C .·
base d gro up fouhded by Charl es
Colson , a Watergate figure who
spent time in prison him se lf.
Prison Fe ll owship started Inner·

The ' group rece ntly won an Iowa
con tract to provide a values -based
program to. up to 200 vo lunteer

T he program goes beyond Sun·
day church services , common in
manrflri sons . '
For 18 months , church vo lunteers from across the state will
visit priso ns, teaching the Bible six
days a week to groups of inmates.
They will also help prisoners complete high school course work, fur- ·

would have others do unto you."
Some find it worrisome when
churches and religiou$l.leaders take
on values-shaping at ihe prisons. ·
Barty Lynn, nation(\!, director of
Virginia-based Amerieans United
for Separation of &lt;;:~urch and
State, has said Christi¥ity is evangelical in nature and that religious
groups operating social services .
programs in prisons could be
tempted to prose lytize . .
Mathes and other state officials
say that in developing the program
they c.arefully considered law s
li!"iting religious involvement in
government.
.. .
Mathes points out tltat the pro gram is voluntary and is not fund ed by taxpayers. Christian Fellowship Minist ries pays most of the
bill , though some ex penses will be
co vered · by rebate mmiey the
prison receives under a deal with
telephone companies that handle
inmates' long-distance call• ·
Mathes also notes that the state
advertised competitive bids last
fall for value s-teachi ng . Prison
Fellowship was 'the only group to
respond .
Ministers in the program lead
inmates in studying and reading
the en tire Old and New Testaments , teaching. them to pray and
helpin g them understand how to
lend a spiritual life .

Dean Wright; a professor of

· the nation is beginning to realize it

social costs ·, of simply throwing
. criminals in prison, with no rehabilitation.
·
. Programs to reform prisoner ~
through ·meditation and other spir·
itual methods are springing up
around the country, he said, adding
that InnerChange, is the most inten sive he nas s-een .

'

': We're just wasting so many
lives the other way. If we can ·do
sometlting to reverse that, we want
to try. And that's the big -question:
•
IF we can."
Jack Cowley oversees the
lnnerChange program at the prison
in ·Richmond, Texa s, and will lead
the Iowa program. He said only
five of 59 released Texas inmates
who participated have again run
into trouble with the law.
This comp ares with overall
recidivism ~ates in the range of 50
percent.
Cowley, 51 , a prison warden in
Oklahoma for 25 years before
joining the Prison Ministries
effort, believes lnnerChange will
succeed.
"I believ e God is opening thin
door," he said. "We're looking at
all different types of things : What
types of fathers they're goi ng to
be, what kind of community leaders they're going to be , what kind
of taxpayers they're goi ng to be." ·
Michael 'Potts is an · InnerChange success story, sa id Cowley

flavor, be sure to heat them long
enough to drive off the wa(er they

New home construction rises to highest level in 20 years

The Federal Reserve reported that output at fac;:: lories, mines and utilities rose by 0.2 percent in

:-- ances and home electronics gear.
:::
This was better than had been expected. Many
: -: analysts had been looking for output to be
·" ·• unchanged in February just as it had been in January.
Taken together, the two reports showed that the
U.S. economy, . which this month celebrates its
eighth year of e~pansion, longest in peacetime b.istory, is not showing its age.
Many economists have been busy revising their

forecasts up for the year based on strong growth
and low unemployment in the first two months of
1999. The economy's strength has sparked a
renewed buying frenzy on Wall Street where the
Dow Jones induslrial average is expected to soon ·
crash through the 10,000 barrier.
Housing construction dipped a slight 0.6 percent
in February as the rise in single-family housing
starts was offset by a 6.3 percent drop in construe· '
lion of apartments.
The 1.80 million annual rate for home and apartment construction was down only slightly from
January's 12-year high of 1.81 million units.
The 0.2 percent rise in industrial production was
the biggest advance since a similar 0.2 percent rise
in December with strength at factories and mines ·
offsetting lower product.ion at the nation's utilities.
Factory output rose by 0.2 percent, the fifth
straight monthly increase for a sector that has been
hard-hit by the 'Asian economic crisis, which ·has
cut into overseas export sales and led to increased
competition from foreign imports. For February,
output of consumer durable goods was up 0.9 percent, led by large increases in the production of
appliances and home electronics. Auto production

dipped a slight 0.1 percent after a strong January
increase.
Output in the mining industry was up o:4 perce.nt as gains in coal mining offset weakness in oil
and gas drilling.
. Output at the nation's utilities was down 0.6
percent, reflecting a warmer-than-usual February.
The nation's factories operated at 80.3 percent
of capacity in February, down slightly from 80.3
percent in January.
The operating rate is the lowest it has been since
August 1992.
-The absence of production bottlenecks is one
reason inflation has remained well behaved.
In the housing report, applications for building
permits, a good indication of future trends, rose 2.7 ·
percent for single-family homes to an annual rate
of 1.31 million units, the highest level since the
government began tracking housing starts in 1960.
. The boom times in housing have been credited
to the good economy with strong job growth and
low inflation.
The absence or inflationary pressures has
allowed the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates
low, which has translated into low mortgage rates

for home buyers.
,
Last year, builders started 1.62 million units, an
11-year high.
Economists are looking for a modest decline in
that pace this year as the economy slows under the
weight of the Asian currency crisis. But so far,
. there have been few signs of a slowdown.
The small 0.6 percent drop in overall housing
starts in February was the first setback since a 2.6
percent decline -in November.
The biggest gain was posted in the Northeast,
where housing construction shot up 35.7 percent to
an annual rate of 209,000 units.
Starts were also up in the Midwest, rising 8 per.cent to an annual rate of 340,000 units.
Housing construction suffered a setback in the
West, dropping 15.9 percent to an annual rate of
369,000 units and was down 2.5 percent in . the
South to an annual rate of 872,000 units.
·
.Applications for building permits dipped 1.8
percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.75
million units.
The 2. 7 percent increase in applications for single-family homes was offset by a 13.3 percent dip
in applications for apartment units.

Taft says developers,
farm preservationists
need to talk

(&gt;

BELLBROOK (AP) - Developer.i and farmland preservationists
need talk out their differences and
make sure Ohio hangs on to its
$67.7 billion agricultural industry,
Gov. Bob Taft said.
Taft toured Willow Run Dairy at
Caprine Estates in this community.
about 10 miles southeast of Dayton
as part of a ·tour to ·celebrate the
diversity of the state's farming
industry.
"We have to get people who want·
to develop and people \"hp want to
preserve our agriculturill way of life
and our farmland to sit down and
work together, to come up with solu·
tions that allow for planned
growth ...," Taft said, wearing a flannel shin and corduroys as he walked
past pens of sleepy-looking goats.
. Taft said Ohio's agribusiness is a
$67.7 billion powerhouse that
employs one out of eveiy six
Ohioans, more thim any other single
segment of the economy. Ohio!s
73,000 family farms produce mo(e
than 200 different crops, he s_aid. ·
With about 1,200 goats on · 16..~ ·
acres, Willow Run is the largest
operation of its kind in the nation,
according to Fred Dailey, director of
the Ohio Agriculture Depariment.
· " It's really the heart and soul of
Ohio. It's our bread and butter." Taft
said. "We have to be very aggressive in promoting .Ohio products,
·
supporting our farmers."
Taft defended his funding plans
for state Agriculture Department.
The · department will receive
$20.5 million from the general revenue budget this year. Taft proposed .
Monday to increase that amount to
about $21.1 million, or 2.8 percent
next year, with no increase the following year.
