Book opponents to meet with library board
After being voted down by
panel, opponents will take
their case to full board Monday
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Opponents of Gender
Queer, a book in the Garnett Municipal
Library which they say aims to groom
children toward non-traditional sexual lifestyles plan to present their argument for banning or labeling the book to
library board members Monday night,
including the results from some 60 survey responses they say favor restricting
the book by 90-10 percent.
Amanda Miller, who along with a
group of opponents met with a library
panel in July to protest the book, said
appeals to the public for comment since
the panels vote to retain the book on
library shelves had garnered around
60 responses which overwhelmingly
favored banning or age restricting the
book. The library panel overruled the
objection 4-2.
Most of them are in favor of banning
it or doing some kind of an age restric-
tion, Miller said.
They see it that
we need to be
more out in
front of this
and
whats
going on right
now
with
them trying
to groom
kids this
way, she
said.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WESTPHALIA Local civic volunteer and county commissioner
Gene Highberger helped create a
community legacy that will continue into Anderson Countys
future. He passed away July 24
and was laid to rest Saturday in
Westphalia at the age of 95.
Known for his sense of humor
and an untiring energy level in
his civic, church and governmental pursuits, Highberger was born
and raised in the Westphalia area,
graduated Westphalia High School
in 1945 and farmed and raised cattle there most of his working life.
He was a member of numerous
local and regional governmental
and semi-governmental agency boards, as well as a member
of the Westphalia School Board
before its unification with USD
365 and served on District 3 on the
Anderson County Commission for
20 years.
Highberger was a confirming vote on several major local
projects since the late 1990s. A
Democrat, he unseated Republican
Ann Calahan in the 3rd District
race in 1996 after a number of
years of controversy surrounding
the Anderson County Hospital.
Early in his tenure he supported the establishment of a county
zoning commission and the institution of county zoning regulations. He voted with commissioners to use capital improvement
dollars for the Anderson County
Kansans to pay even more with new Evergy rate increase
Utility pushes through
hike expert says may mean
22 percent higher costs
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WICHITA Evergy, the largest for-profit electric company in
Kansas, recently raised rates for
nearly every customer in the state
by more than 20% without telling
them.
Electric utilities in the region
are permitted by regulatory authorities to use the Retail Energy Cost
Adjustment, or RECA, to recover
the cost of power generation fuel
and the costs of purchasing power.
On July 1, 2022, Evergy Kansas
Central increased its fuel and purchased power costs by 52%, from
$0.028918 to $0.043956 per kilowatt
hour, and neither the Kansas
Corporation Commission the
entity tasked with regulating energy companies in the state nor
Evergy advised Kansas retail ratepayers of the change.
An expert analysis conducted
by Brubaker and Associates an
expert energy consulting company
in St. Louis, Missouri and commissioned by the Kansas Industrial
Consumers Group found that the
increase in fuel cost, without factoring in the recent heatwave, would
cause the average monthly electric
bill for July, August, and September
2022, to increase, on average for residential customers by 22.69%; from
12.44 cents per kWh, to 15.263 cents
per kWh and for commercial customers by 28.25%. That will affect
about 95% of Evergys 716,000 customers who have a fuel adjustment
clause.
Worse, according to Jim Zakoura
of Kansas Industrial Consumers
Group, the increase in fuel costs
is not what Evergy actually spent
but rather an estimate of what they
think they might spend.
When Evergy increased its fuel
adjustment clause on July 1, 2022
to reflect what Evergy estimated would be increased costs the
per unit cost for electric energy
in Kansas increased materially,
Zakoura said. Very predictably,
the combination of the increased
per-unit cost, and extended high
temperatures and additional electric use, will lead to very high residential and commercial electric
bills.
Moreover, the most recent billing period for which customers will
have bills ran from mid-June to
mid-July, so August and September
bills are likely to be higher yet.
Zakura also noted: These
increases will be greatly exacerbated by the weeks of very high
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The price of gasoline in Kansas tumbled further
last week than anywhere in the
country according to information
compiled by AAA and the Energy
Information Administration but
analysts say higher demand and the
end of the release of federal gasoline
stockpiles may make recent price
decreases short-lived.

temperatures. It would be expected
that electric bills in July 2022 would
increase more than 50% compared
to a year ago.
The chart at the right from a 2020
study shows Kansans paid the highest electric rates in the region by
far, and that has since gotten worse.
Transmission projects, capital
spending also push rates higher.
The KCC is expected next month
to make a decision on a transmission project, which would cut
a swath half a football field wide
through five counties and 89 miles
of Kansas countryside, taken from
landowners by eminent domain, for
a massive high voltage power line.
Adding insult to injury, Kansas
ratepayers will foot the bill for the
transmission line that will send
electricity to other states.
If approved, the line would send
electricity that was originally
intended to serve the Wichita and
Kansas City metro areas to customers in Missouri, but Kansas customers will have to pay for the transmission line via higher electricity
rates.
All while already paying some
of the highest electric rates in the
country.
Additionally, KCC staff recently raised concerns about Evergys

Annex building to house the
K-State Extension Service, a new
commission meeting room and
later planning and zoning, county
emergency management and the
county appraisers office. Later
in his tenure,
Highberger
would cast defining support for
members of the
hospital board
when it voted
for a manageHighberger
ment agreement
with St. Lukes
Health Systems and later for the
construction of the new county
hospital in 2015. He also served as
a member of the hospitals board
of trustees.
In his first campaign for county commissioner, Highberger
supported a bond election for a
new county jail facility and also
supported the idea that the county
should hire an executive or general manager to oversee county
work and coordinate with other
county elected officials. It was a
controversial issue at the time
and one that was never seriously
pursued.
Highberger told the Review in
a 2017 interview about his retirement from the 3rd District seat
he first considered a run for the
county post in 1992, but his wife
Marjorie was not in favor of it.
Four years later as her health was
failing, she told him to go for it, he
said.
He was straightforward about
the commissions mis-steps as
well, saying in later years the

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Driven by the Value Them
Both Amendment vote, todays election
adds an element of importance rarely seen
in Kansas primary races and focuses
attention on basic Kansas voting information often forgotten.
Anderson County Clerk Julie Wettstein
said Libertarian or unaffiliated voters
would be able to vote as well on the VTB
Amendment question, since the ballot question is non-partisan. She said as of Monday
her office had mailed 161 ballots to qualified
requesters and had received 104 returns.
Early voting as yesterday morning totaled
249. Presently Republicans and unaffilated
voters outnumber Democrats in the county
2,786 and 1,693 to 920 respectively according
to the countys recently certified voter registration rolls.

Colony Christian Church Rewards for the faithful
Friday night, the Men on
Fire group conducted a homemade raft race. Sunday morning, Pastor Chase announced
the results and gave verbal
awards: Paddle by Faith, Most
Solid, Perseverance, etc. This
introduction led into a message from 1 Cor 9:24-26. All
Christ followers are in a race
and we should run with purpose in order to obtain an eternal prize. Jesus spoke often
about rewarding those who
are faithful. Matthew 5:12
says Be happy about it! Be
very glad! For a great reward
awaits you in heaven. Using
tips from the raft race, Pastor
Chase encouraged us with the
following points to running the
race of life well. First you have
to make the decision to participate. In order to win the prize
in heaven, you must make a
decision to accept Jesus as
your Savior. Secondly, you
have to prepare. Just like
Noah did when he built the ark,
we must apply and obey Gods
Word. In addition, we must
stay afloat which doesnt nec-
essarily require the boat; just
ask Peter. What is necessary to
stay afloat is to keep your eyes
focused on Jesus. Finally, we
need to paddle in order to keep
ourselves in the current and
heading in the right direction.
Prayer is like spiritually paddling. It keeps us in the flow of
Gods will and helps guide us
to our eternal finish line. Our
heavenly prize is worth it! Phil
3:13b-14, but I focus on this
one thing: forgetting the past
and looking forward to what
lies ahead, I press on to reach
the end of the race and receive
the heavenly prize for which
God, through Christ Jesus, is
calling us.

centered around "Be ye therefore ready also" and "Behold, I
come quickly''. Burial followed

JULY 6, 1943 – JULY 9, 2022
David Lee Hirrt, son of
Delmer and Florence (Wagoner)
Hirt, was born in Iola, KS, on
July 6, 1943. He spent nearly his
entire life in Anderson County,
KS, with most of it on
the farm where he was raised.
Realizing the need of a Savior,
he and his future companion
were baptized September 6,
1964 and became members in
the Cedar Creek district of the
Old German Baptist Brethren
Church, in which faith he died.
He was united in marriage to
Erma Barnhart on September
26, 1964. This union was blessed
with three children.
He, along with his companion, was called to the ministry on February 28, 1976, and
ordained as an Elder on August
18, 1990. He felt the weight of
these responsibilities and had
a loving concern for the welfare of souls, both young and
old.
His lifelong occupation as
a farmer and stockman, as
well as his love for nature and
God's creation, gave him many
opportunities to teach us of the
lessons of life. He cherished
his children and grandchildren, and enjoyed creating
memories with each one as he
watched them grow. He and his
companion enjoyed watching
many sunrises and sunsets, as
they experienced the joys and
sorrows of life together for 57
years.
As age took its toll on his
mind, he spoke often of a desire
to not linger with an affliction
as his father-experienced. The
Lord spared him of this, and
he departed this life very suddenly at his home from cardiac
arrest on July 9, 2022, at the age
of 79 years and 3 days.
He will be greatly missed by
his devoted companion; his children, daughter Ralene and husband Duane Heck, son Dwylan
and wife Kayla and daughter

Yes vote provides for common sense regulation
As a physician, Ill be voting yes on Aug. 2
for the Value Them Both Amendment.
Here is why:
A patient recently disclosed that she had
had an abortion over 25 years ago and I was
the first person she had ever told. With tears,
she added that not a single day goes by where
she has not thought about the abortion and
what her son might have grown up to become.
She said she lacked support and did not feel
like she had a choice, nor did she fully understand the ramifications of her decision; in
fact, she regrets her decision every single
day. Other patients have revealed the same
agonizing decision and the enduring grief that
followed. I also know colleagues with similar
regret, saying they will never forget the trauma of their abortion and aftermath.
Society denies the impact of abortion on
womens subsequent mental health, but my
own clinical experience indicates otherwise.
As a physician, informed consent is paramount and this should not exclude abortion.
And it is a key reason I, along with almost
250 other doctors, nurses, pharmacists and
mental health professionals in Kansas, have
become vocal proponents of the Value Them
Both constitutional amendment. We firmly
believe women should be given all available
information when making such life-altering
KANSAS COMMENTARY

decisions like abortion, including long-term
effects, alternatives and community resources.
But our state supreme court decided otherwise. In an unprecedented decision in 2019,
the court essentially struck down decades
of bipartisan-passed, common-sense laws
regulating abortion. In doing so, it decreed
that virtually any limitation or regulation on
abortion would be deemed unconstitutional;
overnight, this made Kansas one of the most
extreme states in the country with regard to
abortion.
This ruling was then used to strike down
standard inspection, safety, and sanitation
requirements for abortion facilities. Never
mind that this law was put into place because
a home-grade dishwasher was being used to
sterilize surgical equipment in a legally
operating abortion facility in Kansas City,
Kansas. In fact, after years of ignoring reports,
state officials finally inspected this facility
and discovered fetal remains in the fridge, and
roaches and blood on the furniture!
Kansas has also become an abortion destination for women from other states, with
the largest increase in chemical and surgical
abortion in a quarter century. Not only do we
rank among the most extreme in the nation,
we are one of few states where our own voters
have no voice and our own safety regulations
are lacking.
But we have the chance to do better, to once
again protect women who live and visit here.
On August 2, Kansans will have the opportunity to vote on the Value Them Both ballot
measure. A yes vote allows our legislators
to maintain laws that have been in place over
decades. It is a vote to protect women.
And Kansas voters have already shown
that we want reasonable regulations. Kansans
dont want taxpayer funding of elective abortion, including out-of-state abortions. We dont
want to eliminate laws requiring informed

Baseballs rekindling legacy and the joy of 61
Baseball is a game of numbers, and one of
the most iconic of them, 61, is now in play.
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge
remains on pace to match or eclipse the single
season home-run mark set by Roger Maris in
1961.
Technically, a trio of sluggers obliterated
the Maris record in the late 1990s and early
2000s. But their gaudy totals are a testament to
performance-enhancing drugs and baseballs
willingness to look the other way rather than
genuine achievement.
The legitimate record is still held by Maris,
an irony since the standing of his own feat
was called into question at the time. He hit
61 in the American Leagues first 162-game
season, whereas Babe Ruth had hit 60 in the
traditional 154-game season.
This pettifogging line of attack led to
commissioner Ford Frick suggesting what
became the infamous asterisk for Maris. This
slighting treatment wasnt given to any other
record, though, and reflected more a protectiveness of Ruth and his handiwork — and an
unfounded belief that Maris wasnt worthy
— than a commitment to statical purity.
Baseball doesnt have the hold it once did
on the national imagination, yet the home
run is arguably still the signature American
sports play. The sound of the ball off the bat,
the rising anticipation as it traces its path, the
roar of the crowd, the excited call of the broadcasters, the home-run trot — the home run has
retained its power even as baseball itself has
changed.
It was, of course, Babe Ruth who gave us
the home run as we know it. Prior to him,
no one had hit more than 27 home runs in a
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
season. From 1919 to 1933, he hit more than 27
every year save one. Hed hit more home runs
than entire teams.
Ruth launched 60 for the famous
Murderers Row Yankees in 1927. This
record stood for decades when along came this
.260 hitter recently traded to the Yankees from
the Kansas City Athletics named Roger Maris
to challenge history from out of nowhere.
It didnt go well. Maris encountered a wave
of derision and abuse as his long balls piled
up. Shy and self-effacing, he wasnt mediagenic enough for the media, at least not after the
press got through with him.
Such was the pressure on Maris that his
hair began falling out and he wanted to sit
out games near the end. All the focus was on
what he could do in 154 games and when hed
only hit 59 by that juncture, he was deemed
a failure.
The season hadnt ended, though, even if
the air had come out of the balloon. Maris
pulled No. 61 into the right-field seats the last
day of the season in front of a small Yankee
Stadium crowd of roughly 23,000. The TV
broadcaster Red Barber called the home run
with only slightly more enthusiasm than a
sacrifice fly in the middle of May. But the
crowd warmly greeted the landmark, and his
appreciative teammates pushed Maris out of
the dugout for a curtain call.
In theory, 60 home runs shouldnt be an
untouchable record like Joe DiMaggios
56-game hitting streak. Hitting 10 home runs
a month for six months sounds very doable.
There have been dozens of 50-homer seasons
(Yankee slugger Giancarlo Stanton hit 59 with
the Miami Marlins back in 2017). But the
grind of the long season, the inevitability of
slumps, and the factor of injuries make 60 a
formidable barrier.
Now, Aaron Judge is in a position to challenge the record. If he keeps gaining on it, he
wont have a mediagenic problem. Hes 6-foot7 with a million-watt smile playing for the
most storied franchise in the sport. A Yankee
gaining on two other Yankees — it couldnt be
cued up better.
Sixty-one has, cheating aside, lasted more
than half a century. Time for a new number.

All three of these artifacts were
found at the same site and as
you can see a wide variety of
things are being found. How
many of you ladies ever seen
or owned one of the items pictured? My wife Kay received
one when she graduated from
the 8th grade and still has it.

Kansas voting law requires a
government-issued voter identification card to be presented
at the time of voting either at
polling places or advanced voting, and verification of requested and submitted mail ballots.
Outside of a handful of contested primary elections in various legislative districts across
the state, todays main event is
a vote on an amendment that,
if approved, will nullify a 2019
ruling by the Kansas Supreme
Court that found the right to
an abortion is embued, though
not specifically stated, in the
Kansas Constitution. This par-
ticular vote and the fact that
many churches which are used
as polling places has pressed
those churches up against state
electioneering laws, which
specify no political messages
are allowed within 250 feet of a
poll location on election day.
Many churches have taken
a stand in favor of approval
of the amendment and have
posted signage or other messaging on their properties.
Those messages will have to
be removed on election day.
While religious organizations
are restricted from supporting
political candidates lest they
risk their tax-exempt status,
they have more leeway with
regard to support or opposition
to ballot questions.
Kansas Secretary of State
Scott Schwab said last week
the primary election could
drive an extra 200,000 voters
to the polls compared to average primary turnout due to the
amendment. Schwab estimated
36 percent of the states registered voters some 1.9 million
Kansans would participate in
the primary by the time polls
close at 7 p.m.
Primary contests for the last
dozen years averaged in the
mid-to-low 20 percent range,
with 2020 primarys setting a
record at 35 percent.
Information
from
the
Schwabs office shows twice
as many voters statewide have
voted by mail and three times
as many have advance voted in
person than in the primary in
2018

There are many qualities

high-quality professional network, all of which are hallmarks of how we work. That

latest technologies are enabling
us to do everything we've
always done, only much more

also helped us to extend the

Webinar to focus on how trails can fuel tourism
TOPEKA When a community
develops public trails, its not
only making an investment in
the health and well-being of
its citizens, but also improving
the appeal and vitality of the
community itself to residents
and visitors alike.
How trails can be tools for
driving tourism is the topic of
the next K-State Research and

scheduled for 9:30 a.m. Aug. 5.
The webinar, Using Trails to

feature a panel of experts led by

effectively turned their trails
into tourist attractions.
A trio of panelists will join
Burger, including:

his experiences using trails
and the outdoors to promote small rural towns. In

years has been to increase its
capital expenditure budgets
higher and higher with every
iteration. If this continues, we
believe it will undermine the
goal of achieving regionally

South Dakota (-20 cents).
Sundays low price in
Kansas, according to Gasbuddy.
com, was in McPherson at
$3.14. Garnett station prices
were as low as $3.76. Prices in
Lawrence on Saturday were as
low as $3.71.
The
national
average
had fallen as well to $4.22 on
Sunday.
According to new data from
the
Energy
Information
Administration (EIA), gas
demand increased from 8.52
million barrels per day to 9.25
million b/d over the course of
last week. The estimated rate is
80,000 b/d lower than last year,
but it could pressure pump
prices and slow price decreases if the trend holds, said AAA.
Additionally, total domestic
gasoline stocks decreased by
3.3 million bbl to 225.1 million bbl, signaling that higher
demand reduced inventory last
week.
In March President Biden
announced he would release
oil from the U.S. emergency
stockpile at the rate of 1 million
barrels per day through the
end of September, but analysts
debated whether that release
would have much affect compared to reduced driving due to
higher prices
At the close of Wednesdays
formal trading session, West
Texas Intermediate crude oil
increased by $2.28 to settle at
$97.26 per barrel. Crude prices increased over the week
as market concerns about
weakening demand this summer have eased after the EIA
reported that total domestic
crude stocks decreased by 4.5
million bbl to 422.1 million bbl
lthe previous week, 13.5 million bbl lower than the storage
level at the end of July 2021.

We dont want to surrender
parental notification on such
an important health decision of
our teenage girls. We certainly
dont want abortion facilities
held to lower safety standards
than those maintained by clinics and outpatient surgical centers. As much as we may hope
the abortion industry could
regulate itself, it has proved,

PROTEST…
Miller and complainants
Wes Keller and Franklin
Urqhart filed an objection with
the library about the book earlier this summer which generated the implementation of
the librarys policy on handling challenges to its materials. The book by non-binary
author Maia Kobabe, chronicles her adolescent experience in determining an identity that was neither male nor
female. The illustrated book
is presented much like a color
graphic novel, and includes
various depictions of sexual
acts and narrative regarding
sex between children and
adults.
Miller, who also previously
opposed the book at a Spring
Hill library, said opponents
concerns are similar to those
of parents and activists who
have opposed Gender Queer
across the country as well as
other similar books which
they say are designed to groom
children who may be going
through confusing sexual
maturation to believe they are
something other than a traditional gender. Those concerns
are supported by a CDC survey from recent months that
showed a marked increase
in the number of individuals
in their teens and early 20s
who identify as transgender
compared to surveys from previous years.
Concerns have also coincided nationally with publicity surrounding what conservatives say are increasing

Protecting the home from wasps
By Taylor Jamison, K-State
Research and Extension news
service
MANHATTAN A common
problem many homeowners
face is wasps taking up residence in their walls. Kansas
State University entomologist
Raymond Cloyd says, however,
that not all wasps are harmful.
Wasps are beneficial, and
they are part of the ecosystem,
Cloyd said. They are predators to pest caterpillars and are
docile overall. They will usually only sting if agitated.
Mud daubers and paper
wasps are some of the most
common wasps seen around
homes and will generally not
attack people. Yellow jackets
are wasps known for attacking
people.
Despite some wasps beneficial roles, many people
may want to remove wasps
to remove the possibility of
being stung completely, or to
protect their home. If seeking
to remove wasp nests, Cloyd
advises taking into consideration whether the nest is new
or mature.
If the home has a history of
getting wasps, such as in late
spring or early summer, just
knock down the nest as soon
as you see them being built,
Cloyd said.
New nests can be removed
without much risk of being
stung, since there will be fewer
wasps around. Wasps generally
dont rebuild nests in the same
location, so this can be an effective preventative measure.
Spraying nests with an
insecticide should be done at
night while the wasps are in
the nest, Cloyd said.
If the nest is large, mature,
and has been around a while,
Cloyd recommends contacting
a pest management professional.
In order to avoid getting
stung, it is best to contact a pest
management professional, he
said.
Cloyd said correctly identifying wasps is critical to removal. He recommends contacting
your local K-State Research
and Extension office and either
describing the insect over the
phone, or sending pictures via
email.
AAA sees surge in international travel services
WICHITA AAA is experiencing a sharp surge in the
number of members requesting
services related to international travel, including passport
photos, International Driving
Permits and foreign currency,
a strong indicator that travel
overseas is bouncing back in
concert with theinternational
travel 1.jpg easing of COVIDrelated restrictions both at
home and abroad.
In fact, on average, since the
beginning of the year, a sampling* of AAA Retail locations
indicates an 85% increase in
the number of travelers visiting our stores for passport photos as compared to last year,
and the increase in demand for
International Driving Permits
is even greater – up nearly 185%
compared to last year. Requests
for foreign currency may also
require some lead time.
We are encouraging anyone making plans for international travel to request foreign
currency several weeks in
advance of their departure date
because demand is so high,
said Shawn Steward, spokesman for AAA Kansas. We
want to be sure we can fulfill
every request.
Also driving the increase
in international travel is the
dollar to Euro exchange rate,
which is the best it has been in
20 years.
The strong dollar represents a savings for travelers
in some of AAA Travels most
popular destinations, including Paris, Amsterdam and
Rome, Steward added.
While requests for passport photos and International
Driving Permits are both up
sharply over last year, they
still sit about 20% behind 2019.
According to a recent AAA
travel poll**, 20% of Kansans
said they were planning at
least one international trip this
summer and that was before
the U.S. lifted its requirement
for a negative COVID test to
return to the U.S.
While international destinations have largely reopened
to visitors, AAA is reminding
travelers that accommodations, tour packages and flights
may still be limited or cancelled because of staffing challenges, so planning ahead and
working with a travel advisor
are key to ensuring the best
possible travel experience.
In addition to travel advisors,
AAAs international travel
support services include the
following:
Passport photos
International
Driving
Permits
TSA PreCheck events
(Coming to West Wichita (Sept.
5-9) and Topeka (Sept. 12-16)
AAA Retail stores. Details pro-
vided soon.)

Travel insurance
Seven Tips for Planning
International Travel:
1. Work with a travel advisor Even though many
restrictions have been lifted,
COVID-related complexities
still linger. Given the surge in
international travel, flights,
tours, cruises and other packages are at a premium. Work
with a trusted travel advisor to
help you explore options, book
the best deals and navigate possible disruptions.
2. Book early Flights,
hotels, tours, cruises, car rentals the earlier the better to
lock in the best rate, the best
flights and take advantage of
discounts for pre-paying.
3. Exchange for foreign currency several weeks in advance
of departure AAA Retail locations offer most foreign currencies. Exchange in advance to
ensure you have some money
on hand as soon as you touch
down.
4. Apply for an International
Driving Permit (if needed) as
soon as you confirm travel
plans Supply chain issues
have limited availability so
travelers are encouraged to
plan accordingly.
5. Protect your investment
Consider travel insurance.
A solid policy provides a
safety net should something
unexpected happen ahead of
or during your trip. Policies
vary. Talk to your travel advisor about options. They know
you, your trip, your budget and
your specific needs and can
easily walk you through what
travel insurance policy makes
the most sense.
6. Protect your ID In addition to protecting physical documents such as your passport,
travelers should take extra
steps to avoid identity theft, an
inconvenience at any time but
especially with foreign travel. Travelers are encouraged
to sign up for ProtectMyID,
the Experian Identity Theft
Protection service provided for
FREE to all AAA Members.
7. Pad plans for flexibility
Given flight cancellations and
other potential disruptions,
travelers should make plans to
arrive at their destination at
least a full day in advance of
a tour or cruise departure to
reduce stress and minimize the
risk of missing a critical connection.

Tips on keeping cattle
feeding areas clean
By Jessica Jensen, K-State
Research and Extension news
service
MANHATTAN Recent rains
and rising temperatures have
led to a need for cattle producers to clean feeding areas, says
K-State livestock specialist Joel
DeRouchey.
Among
the
chores,
DeRouchey suggests:
Pull manure out of areas
where it has accumulated.
Make sure drainage areas
are clear.
Remove manure from the
pens and consider using it as a
fertilizer source.
Repack
and
rebuild
mounds, if utilized.
DeRouchey said cleaning pens after the winter and
spring months is important
even during the busy summertime, especially if the area is
used for continuous feeding.
Once we get some dryness
in the pens, we want to pull the
extra manure, and get drainage back to where it needs to
go to help dry those pens out
faster, DeRouchey said. All
of a sudden, the pens are super
muddy, and we want to get in
and clean. One of the problems
with that is we often take a lot
of soil.
Trying to clean before the
pens are dry can lead to pulling
soil that will eventually have
to be replaced by more soil.
DeRouchey said producers can
reduce labor and expense by
waiting until the pens are dry.
Its very important to get
that manure removed, especially in those operations that are
feeding cattle, because of fly
production, DeRouchey said.
Flies like moist areas and
organic matter and manure
and rain provide a great environment for larva to grow. If
pens are not cleaned in a timely
matter, the production of flies
will increase and have a negative effect on the cattle.
The same principle applies
in areas where we have additional manure and feed that
was wasted or simply not
consumed by the animals,
DeRouchey said. Those areas
will provide perfect breeding
grounds for fly production and
anything we can do to scrape
and mound it has a significant
impact in producing less flies.
DeRoucheys full discussion
on this topic is available on
the weekday radio program,
Agriculture Today.

Conagra Brands, Inc., recalls frozen we print it.
beef products due to misbranding
and undeclared allergens
Garnett Publishing, Inc.
(785) 448-3121
WASHINGTON, July 30,
2022 Conagra Brands, Inc.,
a Russellville, Ark. establishment, is recalling approximately 119,581 pounds of
frozen beef products due to
misbranding and undeclared
allergens, the U.S. Department
of Agricultures Food Safety
and Inspection Service (FSIS)
announced today. The product
contains egg, a known allergen,
which is not declared on the
product label.
The frozen beef products are
labeled as beef and broccoli but
contain orange chicken. These
items were produced on May 26
and May 27, 2022. The following
products are subject to recall
[view labels]:
22-oz. plastic bag packages
containing P.F. CHANGS
HOME MENU BEEF &
BROCCOLI with lot code
5006 2146 2012 and BEST BY
MAY 21 2023.
The products subject to
recall bear establishment number P115 on the side panel
above the nutrition facts.
These items were shipped to
retail locations nationwide and
impacts only the P.F. Changs
Home Menu Beef & Broccoli
product listed. It does not
include any product sold at P.F.
Changs restaurants.
The problem was discovered
when the producing establishment notified FSIS that it
received two consumer complaints that the beef and broccoli package contained a chicken-based product.
