Shame on the farmers who won't let the county test the effect of the sludge they use, in case it might turn out to be making their customers sick! (CHN June 3).

I believe Hendrik Ibsen wrote a play about that 100 years ago, "Enemy of the People," in which the doctor who discovered that the town's spa water was causing illness rather than being beneficial, and was driven out of town for saying so. Perhaps the paper should publish the names of the farms that refused so that we can refuse to buy from them at the Farmers Market.
