It is said that the world seems to be getting smaller and smaller. Who would have believed 20 years ago that we would now be able to send and receive video and audio correspondence from anywhere in the world at the touch of a button in our homes and offices. Not only are we connected by telecommunication lines, but also by barge lines, railways, trucking companies, air services and access to the interstate.

Within a 500-mile radius to Saline County are:

• 42% of the nation's manufacturing shipments
• 43% of the nation's wholesale trade
• 43% of the U.S. population
