Wozniaks fight Stanley’s planned waste lagoon land grab
In eastern Chippewa County, John and Dorothy Wozniak resist the city of Stanley’s bid to condemn 55 acres of their 320 acre Edson town dairy farm for a new waste treatment lagoon. The family, in barn and field 55 years, notes rising land takings, neighbor alienation, and a looming fall operation date as the city presses ahead with condemnation and a road to the lagoon.

Edson farm land at risk as nonzoned town draws scrutiny
Chippewa County lacks a zoning plan for exclusive agricultural districts and Edson has not adopted the county ordinance. This leaves farmland like the Wozniak farm exposed to development pressure near Stanley, risking dairy operations and requiring larger feed or herd reductions to compensate for land loss. A lagoon site delay costs the city about 100000 dollars more.

Block rejects two tier dairy pricing plan proposal
Secretary John Block told the National Milk Producers Federation board in Virginia that a two tier milk pricing plan backed by Senator Rudy Boschwitz conflicts with Reagan era free market policies and would be hard to administer. He offered no administration proposal on dairy subsidy cuts, noting it was discussed at a Cabinet meeting but not announced.
