Bill Scranton He’ll get the job done There’s no farmer running for governor this year. But Bill Scranton sure thinks like one. He understands farming. The problems we face. That’s why our committee of farmers, veterinarians and agribusiness people are supporting Bill for governor. Take farm preservation. It’s not so much soft soap for Scranton. He sees our prime farmland as “a treasure Pennsylvania must maintain.” And he promises to make farm preservation laws work for you. But that alone won’t do it. “Farm preservation,” he says, “starts with the family.” That’s why Bill came up with an action plan to put more dollars in farmers’ pockets and cut costs of property taxes and livestock diseases. To get top dollars for farmers, Bill Scranton will use low interest loans to attract new food processing plants .. . provide state aid for farmer markets ... step up research on high value crops and new food products.

Cost cutting plans start with property taxes. In some counties, farmers tell Bill, they pay 20% of their income for school taxes while non farmers pay 6%. Bill’s ready to roll up his sleeves to win local tax reform. Talking’s over. Livestock diseases can cut deep into income, too. Scranton will prevent costly epidemics by increasing inspection of farm animals and poultry. He’ll also boost disease research. Bill Scranton understands farming. He’ll get the job done.
