Hi Dave,

 DD> of Agriculture (ran their print shop) and they were more about the
 DD> overall state thn local issues.

 RH> Guess they figured that local issues would bog them down too much.

 DD> Not necessdarily, just that the state Department of Agriculture is
 DD> tasked with responsibility for the entire state all 102 counties.
 DD> Too many localised tasks would bog them down and

 RH> ..........cost way too much to print.

 DD> Actually the print shop only printed two items for public consumption.
 DD> The weekly (every Friday) Market Report which was an 8 page
 DD> newsletter. We got the last of the information by noon, set the type,
 DD> we took our lunch break after the mail run and didn't come back until
 DD> the
 DD> next work day - which was Monday. And we also printed the Department's
 DD> Annual Report. Other than that it was letterheads, envelopes and
 DD> forms.

Sounds like what my dad used to call "job printing". The newspaper was
printed weekly, plus they did other small jobs for businesses or
individuals. They kept a couple of albums of "fancy" jobs (wedding
invitations and other things on that line) that people could order thru
them also.

 DD> MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

 DD>       Title: Farmer's Market Cobbler
 DD>  Categories: Pies, Pastry, Fruits
 DD>       Yield: 6 Servings

It's getting to be that season. Steve brought home another basket of
strawberries from the local market yesterday.
