> Tractor Supply, Nation's largest retail farm and ranch store coming to Crestview, FL. Per Kyle Wright
with the June 18, 2008 Crestview News Bulletin: Tractor Supply Company has confirmed it plans to occupy 28,000 feet
of retail space in the former Winn Dixie store on U.S. Highway 90 in Crestview. TSC spokesperson Susan
Morgenstern confirmed the company’s plans to open a store in Crestview, so long as necessary permits and
approvals are obtained. “ Florida and Alabama are great states for tractor supply,” Morgenstern said. “We know there
are a lot of customers in Florida and Alabama , and we are happy to be moving into Crestview.” TSC bills itself as “the
largest retail farm and ranch store chain in the United States .” The company is based in Brentwood , Tenn. , and
operates more than 750 retail stores in 43 states. Ronnie Watts, owner of the former Winn Dixie building, said the
store likely will open in the fall and employ between 50 and 75 people. “They like the location,” Watts said. “They
looked all over Crestview and zeroed on this, and they think it’s the best location of anywhere around.”

increase in mosquito-borne Eastern Equine Encephalitis in northwest Florida. The article reported that "as of June 30,
there are four times as many cases of EEE reported in Florida compared with the same time period during the two
previous years, the state Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services reports...Bill Sirmans, public information
officer for the Santa Rosa County Health Department, said state statistics show that Santa Rosa has reported 11
cases of EEE in birds and one in a horse this year, five of which have shown up since May. Escambia has reported
two cases of EEE, both in chickens in June."
