HARRiSONNEWSHERALD.COM USDA to provide

pademic assistance to livestock producers for animal losses

Headline 2 Headline 2

WASHINGTON — Livestock and poultry producers who suffered losses during the pandemic because of insufficient access to processing can apply for assistance for losses and the cost of depopulation and disposal of the animals. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Secretary Vilsack announced the Pandemic Livestock Indemnity Program (PLIP) in [recorded] remarks at the National Pork Industry Conference in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. The announcement is part of USDA’s Pandemic Assistance for Producers initiative. Livestock and poultry producers can apply for assistance through USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) from July 20 through Sept. 17.

The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 authorized payments to producers for losses of livestock or poultry depopulated from March 1 through Dec. 26, 2020, stemming from insufficient processing access during the pandemic. PLIP payments will be based on 80% of the fair market PHOTO PROVIDED BY VELMA GROSS. Family band Williamson Branch is a Gospel bluegrass band made up of father, mother, and their three daughters.

Teresa’s Tales Well witching: ‘a gifted talent’

Larry Murral, a well-known water witcher, has been using his methods for decades to find underwater streams. It’s not witchcraft but rather a God-given ability. Larry and Martha Murral (pictured) have been married for 44 years.

BY TERESA DULAC Some call it a gift; others call it witchcraft. It even makes an appearance in the Bible as “the divining rod.” It’s the knack for finding running underground water using only a forked stick and two hands. Known as “water witching,” this process for finding water has been a widely known and accepted tradition since the early 1500s. Although modern technology has taken over the process of finding underground water, there are still individuals today who practice water witching.

And water witching becomes real in the form of Larry Murral, 74, from Harrison County. Murral has been married to his wife Martha, 67, for 44 years, and together they have two sons, five grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren.

Larry Murral calls himself a “well-driller” as he uses his ability to find appropriate locations to place wells. He calls it “locating water” and has been a help to many different people by finding the water and drilling wells.

“To find water, people just go out and drill a hole there, and that doesn’t work,” said Larry Murral. “With me, I go out with a stick, walk around, and it [the stick] will go down. I’ll follow it till it hits another stream above it or below it, and then right there where they intersect. That’s where I’ll drill the hole, and you’ll have two streams of water. That’s where I put the well.”

Murral has the ability to tell how deep the underground water is and which way it flows.

“A lot of times they’ll say, ‘How deep is it?’, and I can tell within three feet by letting the stick count,” he stated. Murral also claims he can find not only water but also gas, oil, and gold.

Today, we rely on modern technology to find underground streams, but water witching was a reliable source for centuries.

Although the word “witch” lies in the name, water witching is not related to witchcraft.

Instead, it is said to work through ideomotor movements, which are made unconsciously through the subconscious mind.

Martha Murral calls her husband’s knack “a gifted talent.” Larry Murral will grip each end of the stick with his palms facing up, then

pull tight until there is tension on both sides of a Y-shaped branch. Then, holding the rod out, he will walk around until the tip of the “Y” flings itself down to indicate he is standing over running water. Some people will use metal rods, but Larry Murral just uses a regular tree branch. Ideally, the branch is shaped like a “Y,” with two ends sprouting out and a small knob on the end.

“Preferably, you get both sides of the ‘Y’ the same size and length,” explained Murral.

“Before I’ve taken the bark right off of sticks.

It would be pulling so hard. It’s like someone’s just out there pulling down and pulling the bark right off of it.”

“When you find the water, it [the stick] moves,” said Martha Murral. “His hands aren’t doing it; his hands are still holding it, but the stick itself will go down.”

Larry Murral says that he does not know how it works but that it’s simply one of God’s gifts. “I look at it this way: the Good Lord put everything here: the stick, the water, the rock, me, and gave me the ability to do it,” he continued.

Murral first found out about his gift when he was nine years old, as his father had the same knack for locating underground water. “It started out with my dad; he did the same thing,” Murral said. “I tried it one time, and it worked.

From that, I just kept doing it and doing it and going around from place to place.”

Murral began to drill wells part time when he was 14 years old. Today, he no longer drills wells but will still help others in finding running water. He will occasionally receive skepticism about his gift but says that in other places, “I get my stick out and people go ‘Alright!’”

Murral is known by word of mouth, and people will contact him to find water, sometimes up to four or five times a summer. “Anytime anybody says ‘water well,’ I take a stick. I’ll find it for them and put a stake in the ground.”

The Murrals were even able to find a water leak in their home thanks to Larry’s gift — and a good stick. But Murral gave some advice about his gift, saying to “use wisely.”

“People go: ‘You lying to me when you say you can find gold with a stick,’” said Murral.

“Well, believe what you want.”

ODOT outlines 5-year plan to focus on walking and biking

COLUMBUS — More and more Ohioans are walking and biking as a way to travel, either by choice or necessity. However, recent safety, health, and demographics trends highlight the urgent need for safer, accessible, and more convenient options for walking and biking in communities across the state. To combat these trends and spur more strategic investment in infrastructure for pedestrians and bicyclists, the Ohio Department of Transportation is launching the first-of-its-kind “Walk.Bike.Ohio” plan. The plan was constructed based on input from local government partners, state agencies, and the public.

“Nearly one out of every 10 Ohio households does not have access to a motor vehicle, meaning active transportation options like walking and bicycling are necessary to meet basic needs,” said Governor Mike DeWine. “When we ensure that walking and biking are safe, convenient, and accessible options – everybody wins. The Walk.Bike.

Ohio plan puts us on the right path to do that.”

In Ohio, walking and biking make up about 14% of all traffic deaths, despite making up just 2.6% of trips to work. Most notable is that not everyone is impacted equally, with high-need populations in the state experiencing a disproportionate amount (nearly double) of the severe pedestrian and bicycle crashes.

In 2020, there were 164 people killed and 469 people seriously injured while biking or walking along or across Ohio’s roadways. From 2019 to 2020 alone, pedestrian deaths increased by an astounding 30%. The most notable increases were at intersections with unmarked crosswalks (+600%), at unmarked, midblock locations (+84%), and locations involving speed (+60%).

The Walk.Bike.Ohio plan is about more than just safety; it introduces a framework for advancing active transportation by documenting existing conditions, identifying roles and responsibilities of various partners, and outlining critical actions for ODOT to focus on over the next five years.

“Although the publication of Walk.Bike.Ohio is a major milestone for Ohio, it is just the beginning of the work necessary to achieve our vision,” said ODOT Director Jack Marchbanks.

The plan was developed over two years and in-

cluded dozens of meetings with key stakeholders and two public surveys. Stakeholders conveyed the need for improving mobility, safety, and quality of life and for equitable investments in walking and bicycling infrastructure, maintenance, programs, and policies.

While Ohio may boast the nation’s eighth-largest roadway network, ODOT found a need for improvement at the state, regional, and local levels to develop bicycle and pedestrian networks, close network gaps, and address unsafe crossings and deficient or failing sidewalks.

“The development of Walk.Bike.Ohio has helped us to establish a statewide vision for walking and biking, informed by practitioners and the public. This plan outlines what ODOT will seek to advance over the next five years in order to improve walking and biking as a transportation option in Ohio,” said ODOT Active Transportation Manager Caitlin Harley.

An economic impact analysis found that existing trips by foot or bike can save Ohioans $12.7 billion in transportation and environmental costs over 20 years. Additionally, if Ohio’s walking and biking rates increased by just over 1%, an extra $5 billion in cost savings is projected over the next 20 years.

In addition to economic benefits, connected active transportation networks can also improve Ohio’s ranking of 40th in the U.S. for overall health outcomes and 47th for health behaviors, including obesity and physical inactivity.

Active transportation is also an opportunity to address growing mobility needs and preferences.

In 1983, about 46% of 16-year-old Americans had a driver’s license, according to the Federal Highway Administration. By 2014, that number had dropped to just over 24%. In Ohio, the number of 16- and 17-year-old drivers fell from 84,985 in 2016 to 70,678 in 2020. And as the share of Ohio’s 65-and-older population continues to grow, more Ohioans might rely on or prefer transit and active transportation options.

The hope is that this plan will be a useful tool for decision-makers at all levels of government in Ohio as they look at ways to make the state more walkable and bikeable.

New broadband map reveals Ohio’s digital desert COLUMBUS — A new Ohio Broadband Availability map released on July 8 presents a stark realization of the state’s broadband infrastructure: If you don’t live in a city, you can’t get high-speed internet. If you do live in a city, that’s still no guarantee.

The new map, developed by Reid Consulting Group on behalf of Connecting Appalachia, reveals that half of all populated areas in Ohio access the internet at less than 10 megabits per second (Mbps) down and one megabit up. Two-thirds of the state is below the Federal Communications Commission minimum of 25 Mbps down and 3 Mbps up.

“This is a real eye-opener,” said Misty Crosby, Executive Director of the Buckeye Hills Regional Council. “We knew the need was great, especially in Appalachian Ohio, but this map makes it clear just how widespread the need really is.”

According to Tom Reid, President of Reid Consulting Group, the situation is worse than expected.

“We knew the FCC’s maps were wrong, but I don’t think anyone expected them to be this wrong.” Connecting Appalachia reports that the total number of households without broadband is close to 720,000, 3.7 times more than the FCC’s estimate of 190,000.

The difference comes down to data. According to Reid, the FCC bases its maps on unverified reports from internet providers, while the new Ohio

broadband map uses data from millions of individual households. “We analyzed over 9 million speed tests,” said Reid. “Every one of those is a real person who used the Speedtest by [the] Ookla app to see how fast their internet was.”

The true extent of Ohio’s rural digital desert isn’t the only surprise in the new data. Bad service shows up even in densely populated urban areas like East Cleveland. “If you zoom in and see a few poor test results surrounded by a bunch of good ones,” said Reid, “that’s not an infrastructure issue. But when you see entire neighborhoods below 10/1 Mbps, that’s definitely a problem.”

Crosby is hopeful that the $190 million set aside for broadband in the state budget is a sign of things to come. “It’s a good start,” Crosby said. “But one look at this map, and it’s clear that we’re going to need a lot more to solve the problem,” Jeanette Wierzbicki, Executive Director of the Ohio Mid-Eastern Governments Association, agrees. “This is an economic survival issue for our region and our state. Broadband is like electricity or safe drinking water. Our communities and residents need access to reliable, affordable, high-speed internet in order to be economically competitive and to thrive in the modern world.”

ODOT’s bike-pedestrian initiative looks to emphasize safety

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com HARRISON COUNTY — After a two-year research and development plan, the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) has put together a bike-walk initiative (statewide bike and pedestrian) as the first of its kind in Ohio.

“Over the past two years, ODOT has worked to document existing conditions and develop recommendations to make walking and biking in Ohio a safe, convenient, and accessible transportation option for everyone,” an ODOT press release stated.

And ODOT Press Secretary Matt Bruning added it’s not just recreational; it’s a means of transportation. And for Harrison County, one of the main feedbacks is “overwhelmingly” that people don’t feel safe when biking and walking.

“I would like to do it more, but I don’t feel safe,” Bruning said, quoting what he’s heard from others. He said there is a call for more protected bike lanes in urbanized areas “as opposed to just a painted stripe on the road.” He used the example of road construction workers who have close calls nearly every day because motorists are not paying enough attention. He said it’s no different for bikers and walkers, except they don’t have the same warning signs and reflectors as road workers.

When asked if European infrastructure had influenced the future construction of new bike paths, Bruning said it had been researched.

“That’s one of the things we’re looking at with this,” he said, referring to shared paths and marked bike lanes, which are commonplace in countries like The Netherlands.

Bruning said Harrison County ranks 84 (out of 88 counties) in Ohio for pedestrian crash rates.

“It’s pretty good, but that’s probably more of a reflection of how many people do it, low population [and] pretty spread out…” He said those pedes-

trian crashes are predominantly in the fall and winter months, which might be attributed to less daylight and longer hours in the dark. The ranking moves up to 74 when talking about bicycle crashes, where he said most occur in the summertime.

Bruning pointed out some of the Harrison County bike routes that run close to Ohio 85 and 95 and U.S. 50 have the potential for expansion or improvement. Abandoned railroads are also high on the list as potential bike paths. But he added a caveat: some are still owned by the railroad companies.

ODOT’s real mission is to work with local communities to aid and encourage them to be more aware of the potential for walking and bike paths.

“So the Walk.Bike.Ohio plan is really honestly geared towards giving the tools for state and local governments to be more mindful of pedestrian facilities and policies,” Bruning explained. “So the idea here is hopefully this will help to inspire, in for example Harrison County, a group or a local government” to make these interests more accessible to the public.

Bruning also added that ODOT has resources to help answer questions on building a multi-use trail or simple bike lane: “What can we do as a community or as a county, or townships or the local non-profit park district...to try to help facilitate that?”

With the subject of funding, Bruning said ODOT could be involved in both that and the engineering angle.

“It could be a mix of those,” he said, adding that if they could not directly help with funding, they might be able to facilitate that funding from elsewhere. In addition, he said the two-year plan would include engaging in partnerships with local governments such as township trustees, county commissioners, a regional planning commission, or a village council.

“The idea here is to get this to be a statewide effort that we can engage all eighty-eight counties, all communities we can say ‘Hey, this is something that needs to be a part of your thinking process when you’re developing transportation going forward.’” He cited some of the bonus benefits as being healthy and economical, too. “It certainly is something people ought to be thinking about. It should be on their radar.”

OPINION

Letters to the editor

Broadband and ‘underserved communities’ Throughout eastern Ohio, in rural communities up and down the Ohio River, homes and businesses lack internet access and the vital connectivity it brings. The pandemic magnified these challenges for rural communities as our country transitioned to more and more remote work and education.

Even though the vast majority of Americans have access to broadband internet among the best in the world, 25% of rural communities lack access to that broadband infrastructure. That means that just because of where someone lives, they have less access to job opportunities, education, and so much more.

Fortunately, with a bipartisan infrastructure framework, we now have a historic opportunity to close the digital divide and bring broadband to every home and small business across our state and country. The infrastructure plan calls for an investment of $65 billion for broadband — a clear prioritization by the federal government to connect underserved communities.

There is broad agreement across the political spectrum that every American should have internet access. It is now time for our members of Congress to step up and finally fix this problem that’s been plaguing rural America for too long.

Cadiz LMI surveys mired by lack of participation

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ — Not unlike many villages around Harrison County, Cadiz is also struggling to gather enough data for completing their low-to-moderate income (LMI) survey. Last Thursday, Treasurer Amy Ossman sent a message to the public asking them to cooperate with surveyors knocking on their doors.

“People are refusing him,” she said regarding the surveyor. “It’s getting kind of ugly. So, we’re not doing very well,” Ossman said. Only around 12 surveys have been completed, but Council Member Terry Capers called it progress.

“So, it’s progress. Maybe not the way we like it, but it is progress,” Capers stated. Ossman stressed that the LMI study is designed to help the community if the figures fall favorably, but at least 51% of the community must have a low or moderate income. And if those are the results, community development block grants (CDBG) then kick in for infrastructure and housing needs.

“Please cooperate with us,” Ossman asked, stressing the importance of at least finding out if Cadiz can meet the criteria needed. But as stated earlier in the summer, council members speculated whether Cadiz has ever met that income threshold of 51%.

“The LMI percentages are determined for various geographies, including each block group, each local government (both incorporated and unincorporated cities and towns, i.e. “places”), and each CDBG grantee,” according to housing website Hud Exchange.

As the council shifted gears, Council Member Eric Miller said that after a recent police committee meeting, it was determined there weren’t enough funds to provide the police with a planned $2 hourly raise.

“So we’re going to look at something else to try to come up with,” he told council.

Council Member John Vermillion made a motion to allow village police officers to take their cruiser home with them. The motion, which was approved unanimously, is only for driving the

cruiser to and from work. However, Ossman threw caution into the subject when she stated the insurance angle would need to be investigated.

“Well, I’m sure they’re going to have to sign something,” she said. However, Mayor John Migliore felt that police already had coverage, and Miller, too, was certain officers were covered “regardless.”

“If an officer lives in Jewett and leaves here from work, he’s covered till he gets home by the city,” Miller explained. But Ossman said she would still have to check to make sure village insurance did cover this move.

Also, Capers informed council a water meter at Sally Buffalo Park was involved in a programming error where numbers were entered incorrectly from the reading part to the computer.

“It wasn’t capturing all the digits, which makes a big difference,” Capers explained. “So, I believe it’s been corrected, and from here on out, it will be read correctly.” Ossman added that she was budgeting on those numbers, “so that’s another thing to think about.”

STEUBENVILLE — Recognizing the intense demand for ethically trained leaders in the computer and information technology fields, Franciscan University of Steubenville has developed a new Software Engineering Program that begins in the fall 2021 semester.

The program takes a systematic, engineering-based approach to the software industry and emphasizes hands-on experiential learning. Faculty with over 20 years of experience in software engineering help students obtain internships for valuable experience that can lead to immediate employment after graduation.

With four additional classes, software engineering majors can obtain a concentration in cybersecurity, one of the most in-demand software fields. Students in other majors, such as computer science, can also benefit from the program with minors in cybersecurity and software engineering.

“Graduates can be assured that the academic and ethical training built into Franciscan’s Software Engineering Program will help them as they enter this rapidly expanding job market,” said Dr. Derek Doroski, director of Franciscan’s Engineering Program. “Moreover, the program’s emphasis on high ethical standards will allow students to pass required security clearances and be trusted by their employers with handling sensitive information.”

The software engineering program courses include “Ethics in Cyberspace” and “Catholicism, Science, and Technology.”

The job market for software engineering and cybersecurity analysts is projected to grow by at least 11% annually in the next eight years, faster than the average for all other occupations. And salaries reflect the job market: Information security analysts earn $100,000 on average, and computer network architects and software developers make over $110,000.

The Software Engineering Program is the first four-year fully on-campus program of Franciscan University’s engineering programs.

Ohio Valley students make dean’s, president’s lists for spring semester OXFORD, UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS — Some local (and semi-local) university students have been recognized recently for their academic achievements; a handful of college students made the dean’s and president’s lists at their respective schools.

First up on Miami University’s dean’s list is Kira Balgo of Saint Clairsville, earning a Bachelor of Arts in University Studies. Second on the dean’s list, Liv Pangrazio of Dennison is studying to get a Bachelor of Arts in Strategic Communication and Arts Management. And the final student on Miami’s dean’s list, Marissa Anderegg of Uhrichsville, is getting her Bachelor of Arts in English: Creative Writing.

Miami University students ranked in the top 20% of undergraduate students within each division for the second semester of 2020-2021 have been named to the dean’s list recognizing academic excellence.

Additionally, Saint Clairsville’s Bethany James was placed on the president’s list for the 2021 spring semester. James is working toward a Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology and Psychology. Students placed on the president’s list rank in the top

3% undergraduate students within each division.

Nationally recognized as one of the most outstanding undergraduate institutions, Miami University is a public university located in Oxford, Ohio.

Ohio’s marijuana issue back in play and dispensaries could be licensed on the recreational side, too, with the Ohio Department of Commerce overseeing the industry.

Harrison County Commissioner Don Bethel weighed in on the subject Wednesday and expressed his concern for the possible approval for marijuana legalization.

“I’m not sure legalizing another mind-altering drug is good for the country,” Bethel stated.

Some have raised whether marijuana is actually a gateway drug, which Bethel said depended on the person. “I believe it can be a gateway drug for younger people who have an addictive personality,” Commissioner Paul Coffland added.

“I saw that a bill has been introduced, but I have not read the full bill. I would have concerns and questions about how it could affect law enforcement and our judicial system.”

Another issue involves taxes and the effects on the court system, which both commissioners agreed might help with clearing cases and making room for more serious crimes, a sentiment shared by Rep. Weinstein.

“There are so many benefits” to legalization, Weinstein said, citing a July 15 article from Marijuana Moment (and written by Kyle Jaeger). “There’s the criminal justice angle. There’s benefits to law enforcement, and there’s benefits to communities of color, who have taken a disproportional hit on marijuana and now stand to benefit economically from it.”

Upchurch and Weinstein, if the bill passes,

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com COLUMBUS — It may not be the gift that keeps on giving since it isn’t legal, but the issue of whether Ohio should legalize marijuana is not going away. And to go one step farther, two Democratic state representatives, Casey Weinstein of Hudson and Terrence Upchurch of Cleveland, are drafting a bill in hopes of legalizing marijuana for commercial and business purposes. It is the first time Ohio lawmakers will have this type of bill constructed.

The bill will finally allow personal and commercial legal usage and consists of four parts: decriminalization, marijuana excise tax, commerce and licensing, and medical marijuana.

“We’re seeing there are dramatic economic benefits. There are medical benefits, and there’s a strong criminal justice avenue here so we can focus law enforcement on violent crime,” Weinstein told the Columbus Dispatch last week. But with Governor Mike DeWine’s past stance on the legalization of marijuana and Ohio’s conservative climate, some are not giving the bill much of a chance to pass.

“The proposal is modeled after Michigan’s marijuana market,” Weinstein said in the July 15 article (Jackie Borchardt, Cincinnati Enquirer). However, the bill would keep Ohio’s 2019-launched medical marijuana program intact. Medical marijuana cultivators, processors,

Jewett passes Silver Spade Ambulance District resolutions

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com JEWETT — Joining the Silver Spade Ambulance District (SSAD), which has been on the back burner for the past month, has now been pushed forward when Jewett’s council approved two resolutions (2021-4, 2021-5). But it would include placing a tax levy on the ballot, which Council Member and acting Mayor Bo Bailey said would be a 2.25mill levy.

“It’s a resolution placing a tax levy...for the purpose of paying for an ambulance and emergency medical services for the village of Jewett as authorized by the Ohio Revised Code,” Bailey stated.

The first resolution was read as an emergency because of time constraints dealing with the deadline for November’s ballot. The second resolution was for actual placement on the ballot.

“And the way that we have them running, they are written for the tax to start in (2022), being first collected in (2023),” village solicitor Jenna Hokes explained. “That way, if your voters decide that they want to pass this, we have an entire year to remove it from the budget commission and enter into the contract...if you choose to.”

Hokes reminded the council that if the voters approve, the new levy would be dropped because the village would not be allowed to pay the ambulance district. So instead, Jewett would enter a

contract and a preexisting Silver Spade levy would take over. Approval of the levy in November would allow the village to enter into a contract with any ambulance service, but their ultimate goal is to join Silver Spade, as they’ve expressed in past meetings.

Council Member Paul Prevot suggested at least one town hall meeting before the election, which council agreed was a good idea. The popular opinion was for an October meeting where the council could explain to the public that they’d be paying less in taxes after dropping a school levy. “It’s a positive for everybody,” treasurer Linda Ager said.

In other matters, Police Chief Ron Carter reminded the council that Saturday, Aug. 7, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., is the day the public can register their four-wheelers, ATVs, ETVs, and golf carts at the village municipal building. They also discussed some of the requirements for the motorists, which include helmets and lights, for example.

Moving forward, acting administrator Mike McBee reported on the veteran’s banners around town and mentioned the need to put a cut-off on how many they can take for the year. He told council people are still coming forward with requests and Council Member Rick Meneely followed up by stating they would need to place two per pole. McBee reiterated that one banner per pole used to be enough, but that’s no longer the case; people keep coming with requests. Poles with only a single banner could add an extra one, “but they have to come down for Christmas decorations,” McBee said.

1-mill replacement levy to benefit ‘police protection’

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com On Wednesday, commissioners agreed to submit a one-mill replacement levy after agreeing to resolution 31-21 last week. The levy will benefit “police protection, including the payment of salaries for police personnel, providing, upgrading and maintaining equipment by the sheriff’s office.”

A ten-mill limitation is in place to protect property owners in the area, meaning that no levy can exceed ten mills—and this one is well under the limitation. Since the current levy is expiring, Sheriff Myers noted that this will take the place of the old one. No additional money is being added,

but rather is a “housekeeping” protocol to maintain the current level of law enforcement for the next five years.

“Whereas, the county auditor has certified to this board that the total current tax valuation of Harrison County is $980,357,360, and the dollar amount of revenue that will be produced annually by the millage stated below would be $980,357,” Wednesday’s resolution (32-21) stated. __________________________________ Fast Facts: A mill levy is a property tax. The tax is created based on the assessed valuation of a piece of real estate. A mill, in this context, represents onetenth of a percentage point, meaning a 0.1% tax rate on a property’s value.

will earmark 15% of the marijuana revenue for municipalities and another 15% to the counties, “with at least one marijuana store, allocated based on the number of stores in each county,” per Marijuana Moment. Another 35% would be allocated for primary and secondary (K-12) education, and the remaining 35% would go toward road and bridge repair.

The bill is intended for adults 21 and older and allows individuals to possess up to five ounces and grow 12 plants for personal use. Local towns would have the power to limit the “type or number of marijuana businesses allowed within their borders.” The bill also states that nonviolent criminal records involving mar-

ijuana “could have their records sealed and could participate in the newly legal industry,” according to Weinstein and the Columbus Dispatch. In addition, a 10% excise tax is planned, with state and local sales taxes planned, as well.

Back in 2015, Ohioans had their chance for legalization, but 64% voted against the measure.

Those conditions were limited and included growing marijuana at 10 preselected sites and only by investors of the amendment campaign.

House Bill 210, which was introduced earlier this year, would allow for personal use but is still awaiting a hearing. Governor Mike DeWine is still opposed to legalization, a spokesman confirmed to the Dispatch.

How serious is the delta variant?

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com CADIZ — With growing concern over the delta variant — and just when the vast majority of the American population felt it was OK to go back in the water — Ohio might face more restrictions. An article in the July 21 Columbus Dispatch (Max Filby) questioned not only masks returning but actual lockdowns, too. And once again, the emphasis is on people getting vaccinated, but with the carryover frustration from last year’s lockdown, resistance might be even worse the second time around for vaccinating the public.

The Dispatch article stated that as many as 70% of Ohioans might not be vaccinated by springtime next year. And according to the CDC, the delta variant “was first detected in the United States in March 2021,” but it “was initially identified in India in December 2020. These variants seem to spread more easily and quickly than other variants, which may lead to more cases of COVID-19.”

Harrison County Health Administrator Garen Rhome said that only one new COVID case was recorded since last week.

But he acknowledged that across Ohio, there had been an uptick in cases and hospitalizations; they aren’t calling it a trend just yet, though.

“We are taking it very seriously,” Rhome said of the delta variant. “We know the delta variant has the potential to spread easier, especially among the unvaccinated,” Rhome stated, with concern for the unvaccinated pockets around Ohio. And again, he repeated his statements from a week ago that approximately 99% of current COVID cases are among the unvaccinated public.

More comments followed concerning the problem of getting more people vaccinated.

Experts have said vaccines, such as Johnson and Johnson and Pfizer’s, are effective against the variant. “It’s going to have to be a personal effort,” Rhome said of getting more people vaccinated. “It’s going to have to be that personal conversation between people, family, and friends.”

According to Beckers Hospital Review, 70% of Americans in 14 states will not be vaccinated until May 2022, with Ohio being ranked ninth for vaccination rate.

“These genetic variations occur over time and can lead to the emergence of new variants that may have different characteristics,” according to the CDC. “Some variant viruses are of particular concern because they spread more easily, cause more severe disease, or may escape the body’s immune response.”

Status report on Cadiz paving

BY SHAWN DIGITY twitter@DIGITYnodoubt CADIZ — As many of Cadiz’s residents have recognized, the streets have been under some serious renovations in recent weeks. Crews had been stripping up the main drag and repaving the asphalt for the brand new town infrastructure. However, the project was initiated because of needed gas line repair; it wasn’t done explicitly to repave the entire town. It can often be a hassle trying to navigate around the workers and operations, though. And the Ohio Department of Transportation recognizes that.

ODOT Press Secretary Matt Bruning mentioned the ongoing project in Cadiz and realized it’s not an ideal situation. While Cadiz’s project went relatively smoothly, there are almost always hangups along the way — and the work is never done; there’s always another project around the corner.

But Bruning hinted at it being somewhat of a necessary evil required to improve the state of the roadways. Specifically, the gas line repair in Cadiz left the status of the main roads in rough shape. But it’s been a mad dash to get the project completed and the new surfaces paved. Recently, crews finished the surface course; last week, workers completed the intermediate work. Even more recently, permanent markings and paint lines were finished to designate parking areas and the centerline. While most road work is weather-dependent, crews in Cadiz received a pretty good break.

Additionally, Bruning also expressed gratitude for the mindfulness of the motorists. He stated that possible delays and driving through lane restrictions aren’t the best, but it’s a means to an end for safer infrastructure. “Going from bad roads to good roads is going to be inconvenient,” Bruning explained.

Bruning also mentioned that he was encouraged by the motorists’ usage of the ohgo.com website, a large digital map showing current and future projects, various layers, and areas to avoid from around the state.

Two proposals awarded, two more up for bid

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com Two bids were awarded last week, and both went to U.S. Bridge out of Cambridge. The first award was for Township Road 265 for $164,727, and the second was for Harrison 13 and $277,029.

U.S. Bridge was the only bidder for both projects and the commissioners agreed to table the issue last week while Harrison County Engineer Doug Bachman conducted his review. The work will include the “removal of the existing superstructure and installation of a new galvanized bridge superstructure” for both projects as stated in their respective resolutions (33-21 and 34-21).

At Wednesday’s meeting, commissioners also announced the advertising of two new bids, with the first to be revealed on Aug. 11 at 10 a.m. for work on Harrison 22. The project “consists of the removal and replacement of existing metal culvert pipes with a composite concrete box beam bridge along County Road 22 and spanning Clearfork Bay (Tappan Lake), including minimal replacement of approach, pavement, and guardrail.”

The second advertisement for bids will open Aug. 18 at 10 a.m. and is for the Harrison County Highway Department Service Garage office expansion.

Harrisville sewer project winner revealed

BY JD LONG jim@harrisonnewsherald.com

CADIZ — The improvements needed for Harrisville’s sanitary sewer system took another step in a positive direction when engineering firm E.L. Robinson revealed three bids for the project at Wednesday’s Harrison County Commissioners meeting.

The low bid, which came from Border Patrol LLC, was for $320,000 and was substantially less than the high bid, which came from SET Inc. at $439,000. The second-highest bid was from Stanley Miller Construction Company for $402,682.

Bob Allen of E.L. Robinson said they would review the proposals for a few days before sending a recommendation back to the commissioners for the official award.

The Harrisville plant, constructed in 2013, has never worked properly, according to Harrisville Mayor Shari Friend when she expressed concern with the sewer system before the commissioners two years ago.

Jewett’s Cruise-In brandishes vintage cars and trucks

BY SHAWN DIGITY twitter@DIGITYnodoubt JEWETT — Earlier in July, Jewett hosted its first Cruise-In a long while, something that hadn’t been done in years. The revived CruiseIn was a car show in essence, but there were some subtle differences. As for the aftermath, it went over pretty well, at least according to event organizer Tammy Verhovec. But she quickly mentioned that the lack of available spacing at the venue is something she wants to highlight when planning 2022’s Cruise-In. And yes, there is going to be a 2022 version of the event.

Verhovec was “very pleased” with the turnout for July 9’s event; she revealed that about 24 to 30 cars participated in the cruise-in.

But she also shared some reflections on how to improve things for the next. Mainly, she mentioned the space. Verhovec would love to have a “little more space” for 2022, which in turn, would bring in more vintage vehicles and a more extensive spread of various vendors.

2021 featured about seven vendors of numerous niches: beef jerky, jewelry, T-shirts, and even a local artist. But hopes are that freeing up more space could bring in even more vendors for future events. Furthermore, the extra space would allow for more cars to drive in and out of the lot, which means more community members would be able to show off

their vehicles.

Verhovoc mentioned that she kept the event as a cruise-in instead of a full-blown vintage car show to allow for other types of older vehicles. And her plan worked; older trucks and motorcycles were brought in — and even a Spyder three-wheeler made it.

The event planning process isn’t uncharted territory for Verhovec; she’s also the owner of a soap-making operation and natural beauty product collection: Twisted Bean Soap Co. With that business experience as a likely boon for the cruise-in scheduling, the Twisted Bean Soap owner is already familiar with a network of vendors and emphasized the potential of bringing them in for future years’ events.

For Verhovec, she’s already looking ahead to make 2022’s Cruise-In better, but what’s equally as important is why she planned the first one. Inspired by her grandfather, “Grump” McAfee, and his old Nova, Verhovec thought the idea of a cruise-in would make for an appropriate homage to Harrison County at large. Along with many other Jewett and Harrison County residents, she relishes the idea of cruising in the vintage cars and “remembering the old days,” as she put it. That’s both the beauty of and the motivation for the CruiseIn. Verhovec remembers Jewett as once being a “beautiful little town,” and she wants to revitalize the area and reinvigorate some of the Jewett “hometown pride.”

Instacart reveals Ohio’s favorite ice cream flavor, and Deersville General Store reveals Harrison County’s

BY SHAWN DIGITY twitter@DIGITYnodoubt In honor of last Sunday’s National Ice Cream Day, grocery delivery app Instacart released their ice cream map of the United States, revealing each state’s absolute favorite flavor based on the app’s own purchase data. Along with that treat-themed map, Instacart used their data to crunch the numbers, and they “determined the most popular ice cream flavors in America by measuring which flavor in each state has the highest relative share of all ice cream purchases compared to the national average.”

Lo and behold, Ohio’s favorite flavor was chocolate chip, according to Instacart’s analytics. Along with Ohio, Kentucky also shared its love of chocolate chip ice cream. They were the only two states to go

with chocolate chip, though. But let’s localize a bit.

Instacart had their analytics to show Ohio’s favorite on the state level, but how does that compare with the county scale?

Well, Harrison County has boots on the ground with an acclaimed and award-winning ice cream shop that might have a thing or two to add. Deersville General Store, champion of the 2019 Ohio-wide Ice Cream Battle competition, has revealed the No. 1 ice cream flavor within its radius: Butter Krunch.

In line with Instacart, the Deersville General Store does offer chocolate chip as an option, but it didn’t even make the cut for the store’s “Big Six.” While the aforementioned Butter Krunch is the head honcho, owners Laura and Kurt Peters mentioned that the second-place black raspberry was nipping at its heels.

Chocolate peanut butter and the traditional vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry rounded out the Big Six.

Deersville General Store has been in the ice cream game for a while. They won an ice cream contest in 2019 and were presented with a plaque from the Farm Bureau in honor. Owners Kurt and Laura Peters use an old World War II-era ice cream machine to make their frozen treats.

Local students earn Buckeye Girls State invitations

BY ESTHER MCCOY PINEY FORK — The Piney Fork American Legion Post 735 auxiliary invited two students from Buckeye Local High School to attend Buckeye Girls State to speak at a social meeting with Legion men and parents in attendance. Bailey Ebright, daughter of Rita and Bart Morris and Chris Ebright, and Heather Lambright, daughter of Jason and Willemyn Lambright, were the students representing the auxiliary. They spent a week, which began on June 13, at the University of Mount Union campus, where government and democracy were learned.

They had some fun moments, too, like when firemen had to have paper hats to represent the group to put out flames. The day started at 6 a.m. and went until 11 p.m. for all the learning they were to absorb about government. But after 11:30 p.m., it was mandatory to be in their rooms.

Both said the food was good, and there was a nurse on the premises. There was some homesickness at first, but it only lasted for a short time. Both felt they learned much from the week-long event and thought it was a great opportunity granted by the auxiliary.

Retired Marine Sgt. Jack Ernest was a speaker as well, telling that the originators of the park thought they could get about 90 names for a wall that they had in mind. It was well beyond their imagination when they received the $50 for 888 names. Tony Phillippi, JCVA treasurer, was kept busy keeping all the money in order.

All the bricks tell of a young man or one in his prime who went to serve. Some came back, and some didn’t. The memories are there.

As Ernest told the group, waiting until the rain stopped to conduct the program, “The names on the brick wall are to remind us of the sacrifice our brothers, sisters, dads, uncles, and cousins made for us.”

U.S. Rep. Bill Johnson was a guest speaker and said the monument is an example of Small

Town America honoring its own. He took part in the clean-up of the museum equipment about five years ago and was industriously seated on top of a tank and sanding the machine. Representative Frank Hoagland was part of the group as well. His dog attended with him as usual.

Chaplain Lamont McCoy gave the opening prayer. Then, a picnic for a combination of veterans and their families and guests was held for about 100. Commander Frank Santa and Barry Bardone were in charge of the picnic, and there were veterans there from Cadiz, Hopedale, Adena, Bloomingdale, Steubenville, Wintersville, Mingo Junction, and parts beyond. Bardone was wished a happy birthday in song for his big day.

SMITHFIELD

By Esther McCoy Our little town had the start of a Farmer’s Market in the lot alongside of the Historical Society several weeks ago that was very nice. They had the Lerby’s selling all types of veggies and honey from their own bee hives. The Fluharty’s had fresh vegetables and fruit from their own Foster/ Fluharty farm. The Historical Society was selling books about the life of a country doctor’s wife, being Cornelia Cattell Thompson. She was married to Dr. Jay Thompson and they had a daughter, Nancy, living on Maple Avenue, with his office adjoining the house. The book is $15 and Linda Kovach, president of the Historical Society, has some in her possession. Linda Helt had very nice crafts, including wreaths, pot holders, dish towels hats, and many nice handmade items. She is a very talented lady.

The group also had the historical society building open for enjoying the past days of Smithfield High School and many of the businesses in the village. The elementary school was part of the area too. The school bell is now part of the Quaker Church Cemetery where many veterans from wars were buried along with citizens of the village who attended the church.

Discussion is going on about tearing down the parsonage (red house across from the Deersville UM Church). It was the home of the notable

Rev. Samuel Patterson. On August 1, 1905 a celebration was held in the east lawn of this house to recognize Patterson’s 50 years as a Pastor. It is said he married and buried more people than any other man in Harrison County history. Patterson passed away June 18, 1906 and the funeral was held at this home with over 2000 people in attendance.

The cemetery behind the house is “Patterson Cemetery”. The house is one of the 25 buildings in Deersville listed on the National Register of Historic Places (2004) on Deersville’s Main St. The National Register of Historic Places is the official list of properties

recognized by the federal government as worthy of preservation for their local, state, or national significance in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, or culture. It is a program of the National Park Service. A committee is trying to come up with ways to save this home and maintain it.

Koda Devore strikes pay dirt once more as he now earns the biggest check in his career July 11th by winning the Wossner Pistons EROC Hare scramble Series round #4 in Carrollton OH. Along the first lap he snapped the tip off his shifter (a $30 part) , but was still able to hook the shifter with his boot and continue building a cushion between him and a hard charging field of pro riders. On July 18th at the Eastern Racing Off-road Championship race in New York he took 2nd place. He had led 80% of the 7-hour event that was to be a 24-hour race, but the race was cut short due to bad weather. Congratulations Koda! His parents are Travis and Nikki Devore of rural Uhrichsville and grandparent is Shelley Devore (late Chuck Devore) and great grandparent Harold McMillen (late Joanne Coultrap McMillen) of rural Deersville. When Koda raced at Snowshoe Mountain WV on June 27th his grandmother Shelley Devore and cousin Nicolas Malone were along with his parents to cheer him on. Shelley said it was nice to spend time with both grandsons.

Congratulations to Olivia McMillen. This was her first year in 4-H as an official full member. She recently won a Silver Ribbon for her market goat, a Silver Ribbon in the clothing judging and style review and a Gold for her pet rabbit. She made the State Fair with her rabbit. Olivia is the daughter of Andy and Danielle McMillen and granddaughter of Roger and Carol McMillen of rural Deersville.

The Deersville Community Theater is having a “fund raiser” on their Facebook page. If they reach the $3000 mark they will be entered into the running for the grant award. The money must be raised by August 19th and they only get credit through the Facebook giving. If 100 people would give $30 each, this goal would be met. Countless folks have enjoyed plays in this historic building and these funds would go a long way in preserving this theater and community center for now and in the future.

Edith Taylor would like to “Thank” everyone for their cards, calls, flowers, cake, dinner, gift cards and greeting cards and stamps to help celebrate her 99th Birthday July 14th. All of the well wishes and love made the whole week wonderful.

Ohio Department of Health urges COVID-19 precautions at residential camps COLUMBUS — The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) is urging caution at residential camps following reports of COVID-19 outbreaks linked to two camps in the western part of the state.

ODH has released updated camp guidance to advise campers and operators of best prevention practices.

The guidance recommends implementing layered prevention tactics at camps attended by those not fully vaccinated against COVID, including using multiple strategies that have shown effectiveness for controlling the spread of the disease: masking, social distancing, hand-washing, and frequent cleaning and sanitation.

“If not everyone at a residential camp is fully vaccinated, the layering of strategies is critical to protecting campers, staff, and volunteers,” said Bruce Vanderhoff, MD, chief medical officer at ODH. “This is especially important as a new, more contagious strain of COVID-19 settles in our state.

Taking these precautions can help reduce the likelihood of spread and allow everyone to safely participate in camp activities.”

The new guidance reiterates universal recommendations for vaccination, masking, distancing, and sanitation. It also offers guidance specific to the camp experience, including cohorting and advice on when to wear and when not to wear face masks.

With the recent outbreaks, Dr. Vanderhoff continues to encourage all eligible Ohioans who can safely do so to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

The vaccine is currently available for use in anyone 12 or older. “Vaccination is our most effective tool for preventing COVID-19 and putting the pandemic behind us,” Dr. Vanderhoff said. “These vaccines save lives and will help ensure Ohioans are able to enjoy many more summers to come.”

COVID-19 vaccines are widely available throughout the state, and Ohioans can schedule a vaccination appointment at gettheshot.coronavirus. ohio.gov.

WVU Medicine Harrison Community Hospital launches telestroke program with the WVU Stroke Center CADIZ — WVU Medicine Harrison Community Hospital has launched a telestroke program with the WVU Stroke Center providing telestroke services to patients at the hospital. The Stroke Center is a part of the WVU Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute.

“WVU Medicine’s telestroke program uses technology that allows rural hospitals the ability to connect virtually with some of the top neurologists in the country,” David Phillips, president and CEO of Harrison Community Hospital, said. “This program gives patients the opportunity to minimize the long-term effects of a stroke when minutes matter without ever leaving their community.”

Through telestroke, WVU Stroke Center neurologists can securely view and interact with the patient in the Harrison Community Hospital emergency room and view diagnostic data over an encrypted internet connection. The WVU Stroke Center team and the Harrison Community Hospital staff will communicate using video conferencing devices to develop a care plan for the stroke patient, share tests like computed tomography (CT) scans, and administer a clot-busting drug called tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) intravenously.

“With this collaboration, it will give us immediate access to neurologists during a crucial narrow time frame,” Susan Redish, director of nursing, said. “It is important for our community to know when it comes to acute stroke, time is critical.”

The WVU Stroke Center at J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital is the first and only hospital in West Virginia to receive The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval and the American Heart Association/ American Stroke Association’s Heart-Check mark for Advanced Certification for Comprehensive Stroke Centers. Both represent symbols of quality from their respective organizations.

NEWS

By Pastor Ken Staley Pleasant Grove & Harriville United Methodist Churches

Five Easy Steps to Spiritual Maturity Did you believe that headline? Sorry, there’s no such thing. Actually, there are way more than five steps to maturity, and many of them are not easy. But that doesn’t mean we don’t go after it with all we’ve got. Just like our physical maturity from birth to adulthood took many years, so does spiritual maturity. Quality takes time. Mushrooms grow overnight, and Redwood trees take decades. But the good news is that God is on our side on the journey.

The apostle Paul wrote to the Philippians, “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ.” Along the way, we have the responsibility and the privilege to put off the old way of life and put on the new.

Paul’s letter to the Colossians instructs us to “put to death what belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and greed, which is idolatry.”

The onus is clearly on us as believers to kill sin and birthright living. So, why are some of us better at that than others? Just like good cooking, it’s the ingredients that one uses. Hebrews 2:1 tells us, “It’s crucial that we keep a firm grip on what we’ve heard, so we don’t drift off.” And there’s the key, many forget what they’ve heard and drift off. Over the years, I’ve heard people remark about another believer and say, “Wow, they’re really spiritual!” They say it in a way that implies, “I wish I could be like them.”

Truth be told, we all have a blank check when it comes to spiritual maturity, it’s just a matter of how bad we want it.

Our challenge in this life is to overcome the obstacles that try to block our way to maturity.

Here are just a few of those obstacles…

Lack of Bible reading blocks spiritual maturity: Jesus said,” I am the vine, you are the branches… apart from Me you can do nothing. The Psalmist asked, “How can a young man keep his way pure? By keeping your word. Hanging with the wrong crowd blocks spiritual maturity: That’s not just good advice for young people, it’s good for adults of all ages. Proverbs 13:20 “Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. Whether it’s coworkers, relatives, neighbors, or electronically through news and entertainment, it’s important who we let influence our life.

Paul told the Corinthians, “Do not be deceived; bad company ruins good morals.”

A Poor Prayer Life blocks spiritual maturity: Jesus’ question to Peter and the disciples in Gethsemane is still valid today, “Could you not keep watch for one hour?”

Self-righteousness blocks spiritual maturity: Jesus told the story of the Pharisee and the tax collector who went to the temple to pray. The Pharisee congratulated himself on all his accomplishments, but the tax collector beat his chest and pleaded for forgiveness. Jesus declared it was the humble man who went home forgiven.

Lack of Patience/Anger: Paul said, “Be patient in affliction and faithful in prayer.” James’ letter says, “The anger of man does not accomplish the righteousness of God.” And finally… Unforgiveness blocks spiritual maturity: Remember this line in The Lord’s Prayer? “Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who have trespassed against us.”

I’ve heard it said that harboring unforgiveness is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. Spiritual maturity doesn’t come overnight, and it’s not always easy, but it’s our life-long aim as we press on toward the goal of the upward call of Christ Jesus.PastorKenStaley@gmail.com
