Nation first signs mark campsites on highway interchanges
A two year research project by the highway commission with the U S Bureau of Public Roads will place blue camping signs at interchanges alongside existing gas food and lodging markers. IRS reminds heads of families may legally produce up to 200 gallons of wine tax free for immediate family use if they register with the federal tax division in St Louis Missouri. Secretary of State Melvin Synhorst forecasts 225000 to 350000 voters in the September 9 primary, higher than two years ago due to a presidential year and sheriff races. State Senator Thomas Riley proposed a value analysis program to cut waste. Governor Hughes and State Treasurer Franzenburg objected calling it a “value analysis” already in use. A special committee was formed to study state spending. Franzenburg criticized the move as a “sniveling little kid trick.”
