Linda Therrian, an organizer for the event, said the guild formed because many crafters, like herself, have been frustrat- ed trying to sell at craft fairs that tend to feature more and more mass-produced or retail items. “It’s not acceptable to us,” said Therrian. “We work hard at what we do. People who come and shop at these craft fairs are getting ripped off. We want to be able to guarantee that whoev- er is standing there at that table has made what’s on that table.” Therrian, who also manages the seasonal farmers’ market in Willsboro, said this craft fair will also be unique because it will allow producers of local food to participate. “When the farmers’ markets end in the fall, most craft mar- kets don’t allow anything from farmers’ markets to be sold there,” she said. “We felt it wasn’t fair that they’ve allowed us for over 20 years to be a part of their markets, and yet we’ve ex- cluded them.” More than 30 vendors have signed up for the fair, pledging to bring wooden bowls, pottery, furniture, art and photography prints, jewelry, and more. Farmers will be offering vegetables, pork, chicken, jams, maple syrup, and baked goods. Therrian approached Willsboro school superintendent Steve Broadwell in August to request use of the school as a craft mar- ket. Broadwell suggested running it as a school project to bene- fit the “Bloomin’ Veggies,” a school garden club recently estab- lished by teacher Charmaine Flynn. “I’ve always wanted to do it,” said Flynn. “It just so happens the school was recipient to it.” The club has been active for the past year, establishing six raised beds behind the school. Garlic and onions have already been planted for next year’s harvest. “Everything we have right now has all been donated,” ex- plained Flynn, including lumber from Hugh Goff, soil from John Sheehan & Son Excavating, and Egyptian Walking Onion bulbs from Scott Sayward. Proceeds collected from the craft fair vendors fees will raise funds for the Bloomin’ Veggies. With more than 30 vendors pay- ing $20 each for their 10’x10’ space, the event will raise more than $600 for the club to use as seed money; literally. Flynn said the funds will likely be used to expand the garden and add more vegetables, including beans, tomatoes, herbs, beets, and even some lettuce. “We’d like to get to the point where we are supplying our cafe- teria with all the vegetables we need,” she said. Flynn said the garden has been a useful teaching tool across all grade levels, whether it’s elementary students learning how to measure out straight rows of veggies, middle schoolers learn- ing about the “three sister” crops, or high school biology stu- dents measuring the pH level of the soil. The craft fair will also serve as a fundraiser for Willsboro’s freshman class.

TUPPER LAKE — Supporters of an amend-ment to the State Constitution legalizing a setof power lines built on State Forest Preserveare celebrating its recent passage.

Voters across New York State approved themeasure by a margin of 863,898 to 427,043Nov. 3, much to the delight of Elected repre-sentatives and environmental groups, bothof whom supported it.

The amendment authorizes the transfer ofsix acres of Forest Preserve along Route 56 inthe town of Colton to accommodate a newstretch of power lines to Tupper Lake. Na-tional Grid, the company that owns and op-erates the lines, will give 43 acres of landalong the Grasse River in exchange.

“I am very thankful for the voter supportwe received on Election Day for this impor-tant constitutional amendment,” said State

Sen. Elizabeth Little, who sponsored the ini-tiative and helped guide it through the Sen-ate and Assembly.

The Adirondack Council was also a majorproponent of the project, educating voters onhow construction of the lines across the two-mile stretch amounted to the least environ-mental impact.

“This landslide approval shows that vot-ers took the time to understand the issue andtrusted our advice about the environmentalbenefits,” said Brian Houseal, executive di-rector for the Adirondack Council. “We aregratified and humbled by the overwhelm-ingly positive response.”

The amendment allows National Grid tolegally connect Tupper Lake to a back-uppower supply. The community had sufferednumerous power outages over the pastdecade because it was at the end of a singlepower supply line that starts in Malone.

Recognizing an immediate need for anoth-

er line, National Grid, the New York StatePower Authority and the state Department ofEnvironmental Conservation signed anagreement authorizing construction in early2008.

“It’s impossible to build a sustainable,modern economy in a village that can’t keepthe lights on,” Houseal said, “Dysfunctionalvillages only encourage more developmentin the back woods where it doesn’t belong.”

Houseal said the Adirondack Council sup-ported the amendment because the alterna-tive was to run the lines on a six-mile detouraround the Forest Preserve.

“We really didn’t like the detour,” saidHouseal, noting how it would have cutthrough old-growth boreal forest that isknown to contain rare plants and wildlife,such as spruce grouse.

“We told them, ‘This may sound crazy, butwe want you to build this on the Forest Pre-serve. It will save you money and it will pre-

vent ecological damage by confining thepower line to an already-developed area,’”Houseal said. “They looked at us strangely atfirst, but then agreed.”

The majority of the lines run across privateproperty or remain on the state Route 56highway easement; all except a two-milestretch between Stark Falls and Sevey Cor-ners. They have been in use since May.

With the amendment approved, the statelegislature must now pass yet another billspelling out the specifics of the land swapand completing the transfers.

“Passage couldn't come at a better time aswinter quickly approaches and demand forpower will increase in Tupper Lake and theTri-Lakes region,” Little said. “This is a smartsolution and the result of effective teamworkby the business community, environmentaladvocates and local and state officials.”

ELIZABETHTOWN — The Adirondack Park Agency hasdecided to forego any further action against a man accusedof disturbing wetlands on his property near Silver Lake.

LeRoy Douglas said that after more than three years of be-ing scrutinized by the APA, he was astonished when theagency agreed to drop their enforcement action against himat a meeting held Nov. 9.

“It was absolutely an unbelievable scene,” he said.The meeting was a status conference held with DEC Ad-

ministrative Law Judge Molly T. McBride. APA EnforcementProgram Supervisor Paul Van Cott joined Douglas and hisattorney, Matt Norfolk of the Lake Placid law firm Briggs &Norfolk, in reviewing the case with the judge..

“The DEC judge said it would be in the best interest ofboth parties if this proceeding ended,” said Norfolk. “Wemet, and we basically stated we would not settle or com-promise.”

“I told them I wasn’t going to back down,” said Douglas,noting that he was prepared to sell some of his properties inorder to fund a potential lawsuit with the agency. “Theyhave tried everything they could for the past couple weeksto try to get me to settle this, but I refused.”

“In response,” said Norfolk, “the APA agreed to withdrawthe 2007 enforcement proceeding with prejudice,” meaningDouglas cannot have similar enforcement action broughtagainst him in the future.

“The agency came to an agreement with Mr. Douglas to re-mediate wetlands on his property to the satisfaction of theAdirondack Park Agency,” said APA spokesman Keith Mc-Keever.

The case arose from an APA claim that Douglas, when re-pairing a road on his property that passes through a wetlandarea, illegally widened the road. An enforcement hearing onthe matter led to a settlement.

“They asked if he would do some remedial work [to nar-row the road], and he agreed,” said Norfolk. “We contendhe’s complied with it.”

But the agency decided to re-open enforcement in March

2007, claiming he failed to follow through with his promiseto narrow the road. Douglas asked the agency to reconsider,but an April 2008 enforcement meeting denied his request.

According to Norfolk, the agency had offered to settle thematter with Douglas provided he pay fines amounting to asmuch as $6,000.

On Sept. 28, Norfolk filed a motion with McBride to va-cate the ruling from that meeting, claiming the APA com-municated illegally with private citizens about Douglas’scase. Norfolk pointed to several letters and e-mails suggest-ing Agency staff sent and received collusive “ex parte” com-munication with staff from the Adirondack Council.

The ex parte rule, in summary, says state agency membersinvolved in a hearing cannot communicate with any personabout the hearing without providing an opportunity for allparties involved to participate; for example, by providingcopies of their written correspondence.

Some of the e-mails specifically discussed Douglas’s en-forcement matter and directed Van Cott to take specific ac-tion in order to find Douglas in violation.

The sender ’s identity in the e-mails is blacked out withmarker, but Norfolk suggests they came from AdirondackCouncil Chairman Brian Ruder, whom Douglas claims alsoowns land along Silver Lake.

“The collusion is absolutely unbelievable,” said Douglas,who is convinced environmental groups like AdirondackCouncil and The Nature Conservancy urged APA enforce-ment against him in an effort to motivate him to sell or al-low conservation easements on his land.

“I am absolutely not a developer,” he said, claiming mostof his land has been owned by ancestors dating back to theCivil War. “I sell land only to pay taxes to be able to live inNew York State.”

As for why the agency decided to drop their enforcementagainst Douglas, he can only speculate.

“I think Paul Van Cott realized that some of the stuff he’sinvolved in with The Nature Conservancy and the Adiron-dack Council is illegal,” he said.

“I think this withdrawal speaks volumes,” said Norfolk,suggesting the agency might have simply decided to honorthe previous settlement. “We’re very happy for LeRoy andhis family, and that this has ended for him.

APA drops claims against Douglas

who cross the bridge, as well as workers and engineers,and therefore we have no choice but to tear down thedangerously deteriorated bridge.”

The bridge is jointly owned by New York and Vermont,although New York has responsibility for bridge main-tenance.

“Reports indicate that the bridge is highly unstableand our harsh winter will only aggravate its condition,”Vermont Gov. Jim Douglas said. “For everyone’s safety,the bridge must be dismantled in a controlled fashionquickly so that a replacement bridge can be erected in itsplace.”

Douglas said both states are working to install tem-porary ferry service as close to the bridge as possible sothat motorists can once again begin crossing Lake Cham-plain between Addison and Crown Point.

Stanley Gee, acting commissioner of the New YorkState Department of Transportation, said, “Now that theanalysis is completed and the bridge has been found un-stable, we can work quickly to demolish the existingbridge and accelerate the process for building a perma-nent replacement. We look forward to restoring vehicleand pedestrian traffic across the lake. In order to pre-serve and protect the historically and environmentallysensitive areas on both side of Lake Champlain, we planto build the replacement bridge as close to the existinglocation as is possible.”

Both governors have emphasized that until a newbridge can be built, a temporary new ferry serviceshould be established as quickly as possible. To that end,they noted that all of the required environmental docu-mentation will be submitted to the appropriate federalagencies early this week, so that construction of new fer-ry docks can begin as soon as possible.

Last month, officials announced transportation alter-natives to cross Lake Champlain. Those alternatives in-clude a free ferry service between Ticonderoga andShoreham, Vt., as well as free ferry service at Lake Cham-plain Transportation's ferry service at the Essex/Char-lotte crossing. Additionally, a free express bus servicenow brings commuters to three major employers in Ver-mont, while a pedestrian ferry service was establishednorth of the Lake Champlain Bridge between Westport,and Basin Harbor.

VaccineFrom page 1

were available in both traditional and nasal forms, andspecial accommodations were in place for the elderlyand disabled.

“We thought the best way to provide it to the commu-nity was to do this,” Buehler said, noting the central lo-cation and afternoon hours.

Doors opened at 3 p.m. and dozens soon packed theschool’s auditorium. Some reported waiting in line for ahalf-hour or more to get their vaccine. The event wasscheduled to last until 7 p.m.

By 5 p.m., however, both patients and doses weredwindling. Louann Jaquish was one of the last to be ad-ministered the vaccine and said her wait was no morethan 10 minutes. She described her experience as“smooth, effective, and comfortable.”

Buehler said administering the flu vaccine has beenmore difficult this year because doses have not been asreadily available.

“The demand this year is larger than it has been in thepast,” she said, attributing it to media coverage and pub-lic concern surrounding the H1N1 strain of flu.

For those anxious to get a flu shot, Buehler noted thereare other avenues for getting it, whether it be through adoctor or an outlet for retail vaccines.

“We’re certainly able to provide these opportunities topeople, but we do encourage them to seek care throughtheir primary care physicians first,” she said.

So far, the number of flu clinics has been limited dueto limited supply of doses, but Buehler expects greateramounts of vaccine to become available in the comingweeks.

“As our vaccine supply increases, we’ll be able toserve our larger communities,” said Buehler.

The next scheduled clinic for H1N1 will be held atKeene Central School Nov. 17 specifically for groups tar-geting by the CDC, such as children and pregnantwomen. See the “In Brief” section for more information.

As we approach the Holiday Sea-son our minds are often occupiedby thoughts of family get-togeth-

ers, sharing and gifts. During this time ofgiving, please consider making holiday giftdonations to the shelter in the names offamily members, friends, and co-workers.A wonderful idea is to ask your familymembers to contribute a donation to theshelter in your name, rather than to buyyou a present. Most traditional gifts go tojust one person; but a donation to the shel-ter supports the humane and loving care ofhundreds of animals in need - as well asgiving you the warm feeling that you havebrightened the lives of these pets whilethey wait through the holidays for their"forever homes." For each designated gift,we will send a letter to your family mem-ber or friend acknowledging your holidaydonation in their name.

Our featured pet this week is Penny, acheerful and good-natured Beagle-mix whomakes up for her smaller size with plentyof energy and personality. Penny loves go-ing for walks and playing outside. She is aterrific exercise companion on those frostymornings when you would prefer to pullthe covers over your head! She will rewardyour efforts with affection and loyalty.Penny is a bright girl who enjoys learning

new things and simply spending time withthe people she loves.

What if you would like to support theshelter, but do not have any money tospare during these difficult economictimes? Contact our staff to find out aboutvolunteer opportunities.

Our staff would behappy to provide some examples of suc-cessful and innovative fundraisers ourcommunity members have had in the past!

Hey everybody; want an inexpen-sive Christmas present? Well, theEssex multi-color calendar is

now on sale at the Essex Town Hall andWillsboro Pharmacy.

Well, while the Crown Point Bridge clos-ing was a disaster, wait ‘til you see the lat-est rescue plan. Now we hear that therewill be two ferry boats sent to the bridgelocation to use boat launch sites in NY &VT (the VT site will need new roads and acurve to by-pass the french fry machine atthe Bridge Eatery). Clearly the two Stateswill have to spend a great deal of money tomake these launch sites feasible. You can’tconvince me that once Vermont and NYspend all that money that they will botherto repair the bridge. We all will be stuckwith a pay as you go ferry system. Now,not to complicate matters, but where willNY get this construction money? Remem-ber, our comptroller said NY used up itsconstruction money for non-transportationpurposes.

In ad nauseam, the lake freezes over at

those bridge sites very early in the winter,and when this happens the ferries won’t beable to swim on down to the sites. Doesanyone, in their right minds expect thestates to move in less than three months?For instance, what about SHIPO review re-quirements of VT & NY. In fact, I believethat the State of NY won’t get all permitsin time from NY’s SHIPO in time for theState DOT to start construction before thefreeze. Bizarre, eh?

Hats off to the people de-erecting theplethora of political signs on Nov. 4! I sawHenry Hommes taking down his ownsigns, the family at the Cemetery takingtheir sign down after midnight, and Prettytaking down his “Vote for Briggs” sign.

So sorry to hear about Vicky Kirby. Shewill be greatly missed by her family andfriends in Essex. Let’s not forget to say aprayer for both of the surviving veteransof Armistice Day. Also, remember thatNov. 11 is also Veterans Day, so named tocommemorate the wars to end all wars; ex-cept for the last four and the next one soonto arrive.

November is still proving to be abusy month of special activities.The Willsboro Central School Dra-

ma Club will be presenting the production of“Damn Yankees” this weekend, Nov. 12-14starting at 7:30 p.m. and then on Nov. 15 at 2p.m. These young students always do a won-derful job, and I hope, as a community, wesupport their efforts.

The Willsboro Congregational Church ispresenting an interesting program on Sat.Nov 14 at 7 p.m. Peter Panagore will sharehis experiences in a dramatic ice climbing,namely a 500 foot pitch adjacent Jasper, Al-berta Canada. He sounds like he has an in-spirational story to share with those in atten-dance. Another first is the special sale by lo-cal artist & farmers that will be held at theWillsboro School Gym on Sat. Nov 14throughout the day.

The local film society has done an outstanding job of not only presenting greatmovies right here in our area, but they havean added feature of having people involvedwith the movie subject introduce the movieand share some interesting things surround-ing the movie being shown. The next moviewill be on Sat. Nov. 21 at the WillsboroSchool, showing “Every Little Step” startingat 8 p.m.

The Willsboro United Methodist Churchfor the fifth year had a special program andmeal for our Willsboro/Reber Veterans. Thisis a very impressive way to show our thanksto those that have served in our militaryover the years. Another special event tookplace at the Methodist church this past Sun-day as they dedicated a Yamaha Keyboard inMemory of Lucille Richard. She loved musicand this will assist the church to carry outtheir ministry with music in places where

the large organ cannot go. Many members ofher family were there to share the joy of theoccasion.

Congratulations to all the winners in theElections this past week. There are still acouple too close to call until after the absen-tees are counted in about a week. Don’t for-get that all election signs should be down bythis weekend.

There are some upcoming meetings youmight be interested in attending. The Wills-boro School Alumni group will be meeting atthe Visitors Center on Monday, Nov. 16 at 7p.m., they are always looking for interestedpersons to come share ideas for next year’sactivities. So feel free to drop in or contactLarry Allen with any good ideas. Anotherhard working group are those on the Com-munity Planning & Revitalization Projects,Plans and Initiatives Inventory. They havehad several planning meetings to collectwhat the community wants to see for the fu-ture, but they still need volunteers to comeand pull these ideas into a constructive plan.They welcome any interested persons to jointhem on Tues. Nov. 17th, at 6:30 in the Visi-tor’s Center

Our sympathy is extended to the family ofVeletia Shepard as she passed away this pastweek after a fall in her home and the compli-cations this brought about. Rita Farrell willbe having a birthday on Feb. 19. As she ismostly house bound, it would be nice toflood her with cards. John Remancus recent-ly enjoyed a visit from his daughter Chris-tine, along with her husband and son fromMassachusetts.

Happy Birthday to Nicholas Arnold 11/13,Gretchen Boardman 11/13, Chester Halen11/16, Bernice Shedd 11/17, Ginger LaPine11/17, Rita Farrell 11/19, Lucas Cross 11/21.

Did you notice there was one day acouple of weeks ago when wehad one of those 24-hour weather

switcheroos—strong south wind for 12hours, then strong north wind for 12hours—and suddenly the trees were bare.Just like that. Bam. Then it got brown.That's when you know you're really in it.Welcome. You have arrived.

Fortunately, we've got some cozy nookswhere we can go get together and hangout. One of them is Dogwood Bread Com-pany in Wadhams, where owners Courtneyand Keri Fair are hosting the season's firstSenior/Community Luncheon on Tuesday,Nov. 17 at noon. The menu includes home-made turkey noodle soup, roasted vegeta-bles, salad, apple crisp, and coffee and tea.It's open to all, with donations welcome.Any profits will go to the Westport FoodPantry to help pay for turkeys for thisyear's Thanksgiving Baskets. If you live inthe area but have trouble getting out of thehouse, call Dogwood at 962-2280 toarrange for free delivery.

And on Wednesday, Nov. 18, MaryBrown will give an illustrated talk at theWadhams Free Library entitled "What's aNice Librarian Like Me Doing HandlingAviation Fuel in Antarctica?" The titlealone is enough to pique your interest,even if you don't know Mary, who's theformer director of the Clinton-Essex-Franklin Library System. After she "re-tired" a few years ago (a word you would-

n't normally associate with her), she had ayen to see Antarctica, where she spent fivemonths at a job that included running afull-size airport. If you do know Mary,then you have an idea of how entertainingher presentation promises to be.

Another cozy spot is the Westport Li-brary, where this time of year you're likelyto find a nice blaze crackling in the fire-place. The second meeting of the new Poet-ry Group will be held there on Thursday,November 19 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. There'sno charge, and anyone interested in at-tending should bring ten copies of a poemthey'd like to read and have the group dis-cuss.

The Westport Library is also having itsannual Holiday Party on Saturday, Novem-ber 21 from 6 to 8 p.m., with wine-tastingand a silent auction filled with treasuresnew and old. Artwork includes pieces byAtea Ring, Patricia Reynolds, and MargoClark, as well as a print from DaCY Mead-ow Farm. Other items are Westport memo-rabilia and gift certificates from the DepotTheatre, the Normandie Club. There's alsoan overnight in Lake Placid.

As you've probably heard, the Cham-plain Bridge is overdone toast. Like au-tumn leaves in strong wind, it's comingdown. Word is the temporary ferry solu-tion at Crown Point is still in the works.The foot-ferry here in town is still running,not to mention the free ride from Essex toCharlotte.

PLATTSBURGH — Since2002, the Chazy Central Rur-al School boys soccer teamhas taken home five SectionVII Class D titles, this yearwas no exception.

After scoring the only goalof the game by Brandon Lau-rin, Chazy knew they had towork defensively during thesecond half.

“We knew that sometimesthe elements are a factor andthe wind was pretty stronggoing one way,” said Chazycoach Rob McAuliffe. “Wehad to win in our favor thefirst half.”

Despite the one goal lead,McAuliffe was concernedgoing into the second half.

“We generated quite a fewchances in the first half and

just didn’t capitalize onthem,” he said.

McAuliffe also felt Wills-boro could have easily beenthe winning team.

“Any time you can comehere and beat a team that’sas coached as well as Wills-boro is, and have playerslike Lucas Strong and JustinDrinkwine in goal,” he ex-plained. “They’re a greatteam.”

Willsboro’s coach AndrewLee felt the same about

Chazy.“They always possess the

ball well,” Lee said. “Theyalways go after it.”

Despite the loss, Lee feltClay Sherman, JustinDrinkwine, Dakota Say-ward, Lucas Strong, PatrickWells, and Alex Hamel allplayed an excellent game.

“They all play well upfront,” he said.

“We came out ready to go.We knew our game plan andwe stuck with it.”

One of the country’s leading tobacco companies, R.J.Reynolds, has recently marketed its killer product inthe form of candy. Camel Orbs, Camel Strips and

Camel Sticks are marketed in mint and fruit flavors and aresold in colorful stylish boxes. Is there a chance that R.J.Reynolds had children in mind when they chose their seduc-tive marketing strategy?

One of my favorite reads is Joseph Heller’s anti war book ,“Catch-22.” One of the feature characters is Milo Minderbinder. Milo is a shameless self promoter and profiteer. In or-der to create venture capital, Milo removes and sells the para-chutes from American bombers and removes the morphinefrom first aid kits and replaces them with paper shares inM&M Enterprises. When members of the bomber crewsprotest his actions he tells them, “What is good for M&M En-terprises is good for the country and for you.”

It appears that R.J. Reynolds has taken a page out of MiloMinder binder’s play book. As tobacco sales have been wan-ing and people are smoking less, tobacco companies are find-ing new ways to consume their toxic products. Additionally,they want to cultivate new customers and those new cus-tomers have been educated about the lethality of their prod-ucts.

In my recollection, Milo Minder binder exploited just abouteveryone around him except children. Apparently, even thistoxic profiteer would not stoop to the despicable depths ofchild exploitation. Sadly, tobacco companies appear willing to.

Tobacco candy has the potential to seduce a new generationof users. My generation was seduced by images that projectedpower and individuality like the “Marlboro Man.”

Perhaps, tobacco companies are hoping that candy flavoredtobacco will lead children to become adult consumers of their

products when their purchas-ing power is greater. In addi-tion, a child that is seeking an-other “rush high” such as isfound in products such as“Red Bull” or other energydrinks will find the same ef-fect from nicotine.

Nicotine is one of the mostaddictive substances, whetherit is smoked, chewed or other-wise consumed. The abuse ofnicotine can lead to dangerous increases in heart rate andblood pressure.

A new federal law has banned the use of fruit flavored ciga-rettes because they were so attractive to children. Unfortunate-ly, the ban does not extend to mints or other candy flavoredproducts.

While tobacco that is smoked or chewed can easily be de-tected by parents or teachers, minty Camel Orbs will not be soeasily detected, if at all. In addition, the product has the ap-pearance of ordinary candy. Children could literally be usingdissolvable tobacco products right in front of their parents orteachers without anyone noticing.

So far, I am not aware of these products being available inthe Northeast; they are only available in southern, tobacco beltareas; so far. If market trials prove profitable, tobacco candywill probably be available everywhere. Remember, all kidscount.

Kids Count By Scot Hurlburt

Tobacco Candy?! You’ve got to be kidding!

One of the most common misconceptions aboutcoupons is that the item that you buy mustmatch the picture that appears on the face of the

coupon. It's true that you can use the coupon to purchasethe item that's pictured. However, you want to pay closeattention to the text on a coupon, too. After all, the textcontains the precise information that the coupon's bar codeis programmed to deliver at the checkout counter. Whichbrings us to this week's tip.

Super-Couponing Secret: Forget the Photos,Read the Fine Print

It's a very common marketing technique for a manufac-turer to show a new or more expensive variety of a prod-uct on the face of a coupon in the hope that you will buythis new or more expensive variety. If you read thecoupon, though, you'll discover that the offer is good for"$1 off any [brand] product." Consider a coupon for a newvariety of cold medicine put out by a leading manufactur-er. The coupon may show the new, multi-symptom medi-cine in the picture, hoping that you will want to try it, butthe text states clearly that you can use the coupon on anymedicine from this manufacturer.

Learning to distinguish between what the photo sug-gests and the full terms of the deal that the text actuallyspells out is a skill that can really help shoppers, giving usmore freedom to buy the item we may prefer versus thevariety shown in the photo. I recently had a coupon for anew variety of skin-care product. It showed a photo of thelotion, and the text read "$1 off [brand] lotion, body wash,or any [brand] product." That wording is key! When I did-n't see a good sale for the company's lotions or body wash,I did see a bar of the same brand of soap - for 99 cents.With my coupon, it was free.

Brand-name sandwich meat is an area where it can payto read coupon wording closely. People often ask me howto save at the deli counter. It's not always easy to get dis-counts on fresh-cut cold cuts. But many meat manufactur-ers sell pre-packaged deli meats, too, and there are oftencoupons for those. Look closely at the wording on these

coupons. While the couponmay show a boxed orbagged variety of meat, thewording often spells out awider deal, such as "$1 off 1package of [brand] slicedmeat, or 1lb. of [brand]sliced meats at the deli."These coupons are a greatway to save on fresh-slicedmeats of the same brand atthe deli counter.

Ready for another tip?This one involves brand loy-alty. While we all have fa-vorite brands of things, our

brand loyalty can cost us in the long run if we aren't shop-ping smart for those favorite-brand items when they're onsale. Major brands often engage in what the industry calls"price wars" with one another. We see this frequently withitems such as pasta sauce, where numerous brands com-pete to sell what is essentially the same product. Brand Amay be cheap one week, but next week Brand B barrels inwith an even lower price. This works out well for shopperswho aren't particularly partial to any specific brand. But, ifwe think "I really like Brand A, and I will always buy it nomatter what," it's great when Brand A is on sale for $1.29 ajar and we've got a 75-cent coupon for it. But when the saleends and Brand A goes back up to $3.29 a jar, we'll be pay-ing the price.

If we can let some of our brand preferences slide a littlebit and fluctuate along with the sales, we can save moremoney in the long run. Next week, I'll share one of thebiggest and most surprising tips with you. It involveswhich days of the week are the least expensive days toshop at the grocery store. You might be surprised to learnwhat they are!

The scarecrow is one of the most fa-miliar figures of the rural landscapenot only in the United States but

throughout the world — especially duringthe fall months. His ragged figure has beenrecorded in rural history for centuries. Wethink of scarecrows as human-like figuresstuffed with straw, but farmers have invent-ed many different scarecrows to protect theircrops over the years.

Hungry birds have always been a problemfor farmers. Birds, such as crows, sometimesate so much corn or wheat that farmers didnot have enough food to last through the win-ter. So, for more than 3,000 years, farmershave been making scarecrows. As long asbirds are hungry, farmers will still look forways to scare crows!

The first scarecrows in recorded historywere placed along the Nile River to protectwheat fields from flocks of quail. Egyptianfarmers covered wooden frames with fishingnets. The farmers hid in the fields and scaredthe quail into the nets. Japanese farmers alsobegan making scarecrows to protect their ricefields. The farmers hung old rags, meat, andfish bones from bamboo poles in their fieldsand then set them on fire. The idea was thatthe smell was so bad that birds, and all otherliving creatures, stayed far away from thecrops. It should be no surprise that the Japan-

ese word forscarecrow —kakashis —literallymeans some-thing thatsmells bad!

In theUnited States these days, we view scarecrowsmore as a fall decoration. This association ismost likely linked to successful fall harvestcelebrations and the idea that the scarecrowshelped achieve a successful harvests by keep-ing birds out of the fields. Though modern ex-periences and research has shown that birdsacclimate to scarecrows. Therefore, the tradi-tional straw-filled scarecrow makes betterdecoration than bird deterrent!

The decorative autumn scarecrows come inmany shapes and styles. While these fallscarecrows probably aren’t scaring too manycrows, they are welcome, fun, and attractiveadditions to the fall garden!
