Century Farm owner keeps nearly a century on Clark County land
Bernard Dodte, a 94-year-old Clark County native, represents a rare few who have almost spent a full century on their Century Farm. The Dodge/Dodte family began in 1883, transitioning from scrub land to registered Holsteins, helping shape Clark County dairy history through early Holstein records, associations, and the county fair. His son Tom continues the operation with two registered Holsteins, preserving lineage and involvement in regional dairy groups.

Consumer group cries foul on Cheez Whiz ads
Washington based Center for Science in the Public Interest charges Kraft Cheez Whiz ads mislead about real cheese. They plan petitions with the FTC and state offices in New York and Wisconsin, saying the product contains only 51 percent cheese and uses whey and additives. The center cites health and cost concerns and notes the label calls it a Pasteurized Process Cheese Spread made with a blend of natural cheese.
