Down in Columbus, word was out today (Wednesday) that the Humane Society, Gov. Ted Strickland agricultrual leaders reached an agreement for HS not to go onto the fall ballot with its farm animal cruelty bill.
Hmm. Itemizing in this writer’s Sunday column: “Some say both sides still talk of some kind of agreement to cancel the ballot fight in favor of some agreement on curbing cruelty to farm animals in small cages in Ohio.”
