Concerned about the meth wastes on roadsides, cleanup

Comments re photo 39584 Methamphetamine generator found S of Glens Fork KYMaury Lewis writes:
There seems to be more and more of this kind of stuff found on the sides of the roads in Adair County lately.

I am concerned about the children and adults who will be picking up on April 16 and who know nothing about this danger. I picked up with a group at the fall 2010 pick up and one man who had training in handling these things.

I have been to two of these classes to let people know what to look for.

Should we be having classes for the groups that are picking up to let them know what to look for? -Maury Lewis

KY F & W: Black bears have been in Adair Co. for years

They are highly protected. There are times when the bears are dangerous, but most of the times they are as scared of humans as humans are of them

By Officer John Harris, Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife

Black Bears in Kentucky are native to Kentucky and are highly protected. There is a Bear season in Kentucky, but it is limited to two southeastern counties.

Black Bears eat an assortment of berries, nuts, insects and rodents.

Most of the time if a Bear is encountered, the bear is as scared of you as you are of them.

Times that a Black Bear may be Dangerous are mainly when a Mother Bear has her cubs or if a person surprises a Bear.

Black Bears have been confirmed in Adair County and have been here for years ,but as the population increases, then so does the chance of sighting one.

If you have any Bear problems contact The Kentucky Dept. Of Fish & Wildlife at 1-800 252-5378

Flag Replacement: Sometimes individuals need reminders

Joe Hare applauds Cubs, other organizations for flag disposal; thinks more need to courteously remind those whose flags need replacing to do so.

By Joe Hare
Commentary

As the issue of proper flag disposal has come up, I have had a thought. Sometimes when I think, it get me in trouble, so I hope this is not such an occasion.

It seems there are several people concerned with the proper disposal of flags, so it would be a good time to encourage everyone who flies a flag to insure that it is in good shape or replace it. As a veteran I do not mind asking a government agency or a private business, to replace or remove a worn or tattered flag.
