State Sen. Darrel J. Aubertine, D-Cape Vincent, hosted a hearing today in Watertown to learn from agricultural officials about the pertitent issues.

Marilyn Trainer, District 4 director for the state Association of Agricultural Fairs, said during her testimony that she had accompanied a traveling carnival show for a short period of time to get a better understanding of how they operate.

She then urged those in the room to join a carnival if they were ever offered the opportunity.

"I belong to one," Mr. Aubertine quipped.

My story about the hearing's far more serious topics, such as the Farm Workers Fair Labor Practices Act, will be in Friday's paper.
