In Lorain County a sugar bush operates each spring with Roscoe Campbell of Pittsfield boiling sap into maple syrup. Sap yields about 40 gallons per gallon of syrup, with hard sugar maples best and salt maples poorer for sugar content. East Berlin officials hunted a stray baby elephant named Kosko after it disappeared from a zoo, with sap-collecting operations drawing visitors.

Interest In Taxes Continue Through Farm Bureau Councils
Five Farm Bureau councils aired tax concerns at February meetings. They favored reinstating a 9 to 40 cent tax on items and taxing 3.2 beer as higher alcohol beer, while opposing a state income tax or raised real estate tax. They urged thrift in new revenue and noted retail sales tax should be a last resort. Councils also discussed tax plans for beer and liquor sales and proposed machinery purchase incentives.
