Forum Communications Editorial - Vote Romney to move nation ahead

Letter - The legacy of pig factory farms
I grew up on the farm just to the north of the proposed site for the super-sized pig farm. I love that farm. I love sharing memories with my two young sons whenever we come home for a visit: “There’s the pond where we used to go skating in the winter.
