Empty view along Saline rail line recalls a bygone era
The article reflects on the New York Central right of way once bustling with coal and grain traffic to Saline, known as The Huckleberry Line.

Tractor Bash Proposal Shifts Fall Fair Schedule
A Fair board member and Bobby Girbach of FFA suggest Friday afternoon tractor events at the September fair a change from planned days. A “tractor free for all” would have no weight or operation limits, risking equipment damage but drawing crowds. Horse pulling stays Tuesday and a Local Talent Show returns with Senior Citizens participation. Lodi Extension groups meet Tuesday at Mrs. Herter’s home.
