< p>INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Seventeen southern Indiana counties will receive shares of more than $380,000 as part of the state's annual distribution of revenue from timber sales.

Each county receiving funds shares half of the money with rural and volunteer fire departments that have cooperative agreements with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.

Other counties receiving funds are Crawford ($13,501), Dubois ($13,731), Greene ($ 911), Harrison ($37,454), Jackson ($16,424), Jennings ($ 5,236), Martin ($35,258), Morgan ($15,285), Owen ($19,099), Perry ($3,611), Pike ($ 5,281), Scott ($4,190), Sullivan ($1,325), and Washington ($29,713).
