Locals give broad support to
Trump in impeachment battle
from a July telephone conversation
Facebook followers say
between Trump and the president

President did nothing illegal, of
charge Trump tried to persuade his
counterfault Democrats in Congress Ukrainian
part to investigate
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT By an overwhelming
majority, Review readers and followers of our Facebook page support
President Donald Trump against a
Democrat-led U.S. Congress which
forwarded articles of impeachment
against him last week, making
Trump the fourth president in U.S.
history to face impeachment.
Two articles alleging abuse of
power and obstruction of Congress
were forwarded on Friday from the
House Judiciary Committee led by
New York Democrat Jerry Nadler.
They were previously approved on
Monday by the House Intelligence
Committee led by California
Democrat Adam Schiff. Both stem
alleged
malfeasance by Hunter
Biden in an oil and
gas company operation. Biden is the
son of Democrat
presidential contender
Joseph
Trump
Biden.
But Republicans,
who are in the minority in Congress,
contend nothing in the phone call
meets the qualifications for impeachment charges according to the
Constitution, and theyve been heavily critical of the process engaged
by Schiff and Nadler in limiting
Republican committee member questioning and ability to call hearing
witnesses. Votes on the issues in
Congress thus far have followed
strictly along party lines, with most
all Democrat committee members
voting to impeach and all Republicans
against. In past impeachments, generally thought of as one of the most
serious acts of the legislative branch,
support for impeachment has been
more mixed among Democrats and
Republicans.
Trumps general approval ratings
have remained unchanged through
the impeachment drama, and some
polls see them improving particularly on the economy.
Democrats ranked as the smallest
registered voter bloc in Anderson
County according to records from
the Kansas Secretary of States office,
with 1,147 compared to unaffiliated
voters at 1,880 and Republicans at
2,343. That spread is more than
reflected in the comments to the

Trade deals bring smiles to the farm
BY DANE HICKSTHE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MANHATTAN Farmers
and ag-related businesses
in Anderson County have
reason for some optimism
on commodity prices, at
least according to state
farm organizations which
advocate for the states
agricultural interests.
Both the Kansas Corn
Commission and Kansas
Farm Bureau issued statements last week that lauded what President Trump
and Chinese officials are
calling a Phase One trade
deal, which came together
late last week and revolves
around a reduction of some
U.S. tariffs against Chinese
goods and a freeze on new
tariffs which were to go
into effect Sunday, and a
commitment by China to
buy more U.S. farm products as well as some other
goods.
The deal nets an additional $200 billion in U.S.
goods and services over
the next two years on top
of some $180 billion China
purchased in a 2017 deal,
before the trade war began.
That news late Friday
followed a surprise approv-
al by the U.S. House of
Representatives of the
U.S.MexicoCanada
Agreement (USMCA), providing a political win for
both Democrats leading
congress and for President,
as well as farmers and others who sell into the two
largest American trade
markets.
A formal rendering of
the Chinese agreement
was expected to be signed
in January. Kansas Farm
Bureau President Rich
Felts noted the benefits of
the Chinese deal.

Historic Pennsylvania Hotel
may have run out of chances
GARNETT The former
Pennsylvania Hotel in downtown Garnett may have
exhausted its reprieves from
the wrecking ball.
The historic but derelict building on the south
side of the Garnett square,
which was condemned several years ago by the city,
has been an ongoing topic
for city management and city
commissioners. The building
was marked as a no-enter
structure by local fire officials who declared its not
safe for firemen to enter in
the event it catches fire, and
Garnett City Manager Chris
Wiener told city commissioners last week after several
possible owners failed to exeSEE CHANCES ON PAGE 8B
is pleased to see the United
States and China have
reached a deal to lessen
trade barriers between the
two countries, Felts said.
China is an important
market for Kansas farmers
and ranchers, and we urge
both countries to continue
working to create a free
and fair market.
The commitment from
China to make substantial additional purchases
of U.S. goods is a positive
step, he said.

Local law officers worked a number of traffic accidents in Anderson County Sunday

number of wrecks took up officers time, none, including this one north of Welda
Sunday on U.S. 169, involved serious injuries.
County wins tax appeal against EKAE
Court decision sets
plants tax value; EKAE
may appeal again
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Anderson County
Commissioners prevailed last
week in district court in the
appeal of a property tax case
that seeks a final determination on what and how much of
the East Kansas Agri Energy
ethanol plant in Garnett will
be subject to county, city and
school district property taxes.
District Court Judge Eric
Godderz ruled in favor of a 2018
decision by the Kansas Board
of Tax Appeals that defined
which buildings and equipment
at EKAE are designated as real
estate as opposed to personal
property. Unless appealed, that
determination decides a final
tax revenue issue for the plant
and for the local taxing entities
which will benefit from their
tax levies affecting it. EKAE
appealed the BOTA decision to
district court in November of
last year.
The company has paid its
taxes under protest since the
initial finding of its valuation
was made, but local governments have made continual
budget considerations knowing
at some point they might have
to refund a portion of that tax
revenue.
Bill Pracht, CEO and
President of EKAE, said Friday

Mayor makes priority of safety threat at rec center
Gwin says furnace
issue should be a

Workmen with Kansas City, Mo.s, Fidler on the Roof roofing company braved high winds and chilly
temps last week to start the re-roofing of the Anderson County Courthouse.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A possible carbon monoxide threat at the
Garnett Recreation Center
prompted city commissioners
to direct the immediate repair
of a furnace system in the
facility during last weeks city
commission meeting.
City manager Chris Weiner
told commissioners one of
two HVAC units for the facil-
itys weight room and aerobic
room had shown a crack in
its heat exchanger last year
during a fall inspection. The
facility had managed with the
other unit until it too came
up needing repair during an
inspection this year.
Weiner said one unit was
turned off and so far the
remaining unit was handling
both areas.
Cracked heat exchangers
can allow flue gases to escape
into a building, causing possibly deadly carbon monoxide poisoning. Mayor Greg
Gwin said the issue needed
to be addressed as early as
Wednesday morning after
Tuesdays meeting.
I dont know where
the funds can come from,
but I think this needs to be
addressed quickly, Gwin
said.
Weiner said the center
might have existing funds
that could handle the repair
or replacement of the units,
or that funds could come from
the citys capital improvement fund.
In other business from
Tuesdays meeting:
commissioners voted to
I ordered a chicken and an egg from Amazon. Ill let you know.

commenters said the impeachment was a scam, fabricated
by Democrats whove never
come to grips with losing the
2016 election and whove been
trying to remove Trump from
office since he started the job.
Were wasting our time
and money on this when we
should be getting the Country
taking care of, said Lee Henry
of Garnett.
Career politicians have
become so corrupt and hungry
for power that any compromise
on anything is impossible,
said Jeff Patterson of Garnett.
Now theyve figured out how
to throw a tantrum lasting four
years just to muddy up the
incumbent.
I may not agree with Trump
on his social skills, however
a lot of people are blunt, not
sugar coated and extremely
offensive to some, said Terry
Taylor of Iola. This does not
make them bad at their job,
perhaps maybe not as popular.
These qualities I feel are necessary to lead our country. Also,
everyone is deserving of due
process. President Trump has
not been given this.
Other comments noted the
Democrats seeming preoccupation with unseating Trump
since early in his presidency.
This entire debacle solidifies two facts, said Virginia
Crossland-Macha of Iola. The
underbelly of the deep state
exists and its reaches are wide.
The second is the corruption of
Congress with a track record
of the last three years in doing
nothing for America deserves
the 11% approval rating.
A full vote on the impeachment articles by all members
of Congress is expected on
Wednesday.

Trains and more on display at Garnett Library
As the Holiday Season
is upon us, so is the Garnett
Librarys display case and the
Walker Galleries.
In the entrance display case,
you will find historical model
trains. These are from the collections of Mike Canavan and
Skip Landis. Both gentlemen
have built more than one or
two extensive model train layouts and have attended many
model train shows.
The display features two
N gauge models and four O
gauge models. The detailed
N gauge models are made
by Life Like and are late 1940s
and early 1950s vintage of
Kansas City Southern Freight
and Leigh Valley Freight.
The O gauge models feature
Lionel and MTH stock.
Lionel model sets were first
used to display merchant goods
in store windows in NYC. The
bottom shelf of the case is
the Lionel 100th Anniversary
Christmas Freight Set. The
three shelves above are Mikes
Train House models. One is a
replica of the famous 1930s and
1940s passenger Empire State
Express. The other is a replica of the 1940s Pennsylvania
Turbine Passenger Express.
The top shelf features Lionel
2016 remote control John Deere
collector set.
Stop by during the month
of December and perhaps the
magic of trains under the
Christmas Tree will send you
back in time!
Also on display for the
month of December in the
West Gallery are Nativity Sets
belonging to members of the
Walker Art Committee.
The unique Nativity Sets
are all beautiful in very different ways. The religious art and
wreaths on the wall make this
gallery especially beautiful!
On display, during the
months of December and
January, in the Community
Gallery, are fabric quilts by
Lynn Wawrzewski and barn
quilts by her daughter, Wendy
Jones. Lynns quilts many
times have started just trying
a pattern, then morphing into
a large quilt. Putting quilt patterns together is like putting
a puzzle together. When you
finish, you have something you
and others can enjoy. Wendy
didnt catch the fabric quilting
bug, but she makes beautiful
wooden barn quilts. She has
held several teaching sessions
to help others paint their own
barn blocks in the colors and
patterns they love. Lynn and
Wendy find they enjoy working
together when mom sews and
Wendy presses and puts the
blocks in order. Searching for
new fabric stores always turns
into an adventure for them.
They may get lost, but they see
a lot of new country. Wendy
has donated her wooden barn
quilts to the library for a fundraising activity. If interested,
make a donation to the library
and take home a treasure!

ECCLEFIELD
MARCH 15, 1952 – DECEMBER 10, 2019
Gary Wayne Ecclefield, age
67, of Garnett, Kansas, passed
away on Tuesday, December
10, 2019 at the Coffey County
Hospital in Burlington, Kansas.
His final moments were spent
doing one of
the
things
he loved the
most, flying
his Cessna
172 airplane.
He
passed
away shortly
after his final
flight.
Ecclefield
He
was
born March
15, 1952, in Garnett, Kansas,
the son of Francis Wayne
and Arlene Erma (Hosier)
Ecclefield. Gary grew up in
Welda. He attended school in
Welda until he transferred to
Garnett High School his freshman year where he graduated
with the class of 1970. While at
Garnett High School, he met
the love of his life, Cindy. She
spotted him from across the
crowded gym and said, Whos
that?! I wanna marry that guy!
They were married November
27, 1972, in Welda; to this union
three children were born.
In 1971, Gary attended Allen
County Community College
and in 1972, he took the leap
into business ownership, at the
age of 19, by purchasing an
auto body shop which became
Garys Body Shop. After
almost 40 years in ownership,
he took the position of Airport
Manager at Garnett Industrial
Airport. Gary was incredibly dedicated to his job and
took so much pride in making
improvements to the airport.
He did not possess the ability to
half-ass anything.
Gary was a 27-year member
and past Master of the Garnett
Masonic Delphian Lodge 44.
Gary loved his toys! His passions included building and
flying model airplanes, racing
go carts, riding motorcycles,
weekends skiing at the lake
with his family, traveling to
Branson and riding rollercoasters. He really liked to go fast!!
He enjoyed many activities
including dancing, playing basketball and the drums. He even
played in a band with (who
would later become) his brother-in-law. Gary also enjoyed
the normal pace of life, attending as many of his Grandkids
events as possible. And he sure
did love his cat, Cessna.
He loved reading books and
was always so eager to share
any new, exciting piece of

Colony Christian Church – Dont be afraid to
Jesus: King thru Heritage. return to the father
Darren McGhee gave the
Communion Meditation over
giving.
Deuteronomy 6:4-12 tells us
to love the Lord with all our
heart, soul and strength; to
repeat God's commands to our
children; to talk about them
everywhere we go.
We must not forget the giver.
God gave us these commands
as a gift because he loves us,
but some of his gifts are easy to
overlook.
His mercy, grace, provisions. Don't lose sight of God's
goodness, the source of all our
blessings.
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon "Jesus: King thru
Heritage". Matthew 1:1-17 and
Luke 3:23-38 tells us the genealogy of Jesus.
Matthew's is believed to be
the ancestors of Joseph, and
Luke's the ancestors of Mary.
But what does this genealogy tell us?
1. It tells us that Jesus was
a real person. He was born and
lived as a human.
2. It links Jesus back to
David. Isaiah 9:6-7 prophesied
that the Messiah would be in
the line of David.
3. It tells us that Jesus had a
very colorful ancestry.
There were imperfect people
in the line of Jesus. Rahab the
prostitute who hid the Israelite
spies, Ahaz was known as one
of the worst Kings of Judea,
etc. God uses imperfect people
to complete his perfect plan.
John the Baptist is also in the
family of Jesus… his cousin.
John was used to prepare the
way for Jesus. (Additional references: Isaiah 11:1-16 & 40:3,
Jeremiah 22, Malachi 3:1, Luke
1:13-17, Matthew 3:7-8 & 13-15)

OPINION
Impeachment sacrifices reputations
Now that the Horowitz report is out, revealing all those lies told by the FBI as it worked
to hamstring a presidency with a debunked
Russia collusion theory, heres a question:
Where do U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff the
Inspector Javert of Trump Impeachment
Theater and Schiffs eager handmaidens of
the Washington Democratic Media Complex go
now to get their reputations back?
Nowhere. There is no place for them to go.
It really doesnt matter where Schiff goes. The
Democratic chairman of the House Intelligence
Committee will be blamed when impeachment
boomerangs on the Democrats.
Schiffs Washington Beltway establishment
media enablers, those whove carried his water
for years, may ignore the impact the Horowitz
report has on Schiffs reputation.
They might just spin it all away. And the
more witless among them have already reverted to their default positions: tribal hooting,
while comparing anyone who disagrees with
them to Hitler. If you want the short version,
just scroll through Twitter for the angry disembodied cartoon heads.
But there are many intelligent, thoughtful
liberal members of the press who, when it
comes to Schiff, must be thinking, My God,
what have I done?
Because if theres one thing that comes
through in the report from Obama-appointed
Department of Justice Inspector General
Michael E. Horowitz, and from his testimony on Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary
Committee, it is this:
Schiff is a dissembler, a prevaricator, a distortionist, a spreader of falsehoods. In Chicago
we use the short word: liar.
It was Schiff who insisted all along that
FBI and Department of Justice officials did
not abuse the FISA (Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act) courts or hide information
from judges.
But according to Horowitz, thats what the
FBI did.
The DOJ met the rigor, transparency and
evidentiary basis needed to meet FISAs probable cause requirement, insisted Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, in a
2018 memo that should be carved in marble.
But the FBI didnt meet those rigorous standards. It didnt offer transparency. Officials hid
evidence from the court, or fabricated evidence
to get what it wanted.
It was Schiff who insisted that the FBI didnt
heavily rely on the so-called Steele dossier,
the salacious Democratic Party-paid-for oppo
research against Trump.
But Horowitz shows that the FBI relied heavily relied on the salacious dossier and even
GUEST EDITORIAL
JOHN KASS, THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE
made up evidence to keep the dossier useful
before the courts, though key officials knew
that what was in it wasnt true.
We now know from the Horowitz report that
the dossier played a central and essential role
in obtaining warrants to spy on the 2016 Trump
campaign.
We also know that Schiff lied to the public
about what had happened, as his media handmaidens protected him and trashed his fellow
House Intelligence Committee member, U.S.
Rep. Devin Nunes, a California Republican,
who tried to warn the country of the FISA
abuse.
Why is FISA abuse relevant beyond whether
Trump wins reelection or not?
Because faking evidence and lying about it
to the courts to continue receiving surveillance
warrants on Americans is a threat to all our
liberty.
If they can do this to a presidential campaign, they can do it to you.
The FISA abuse also weakens Congressional
support for the FISA court, which has been used
in terrorism investigations. I dont like secret
courts. And I dont like putting courts in an
oversight role over the executive branch, a job
that properly belongs to Congress.
But there are bad actors out there who want
to kill Americans, and such courts can be necessary. And for the FBI to create a climate where
these law enforcement tools could be thrown
out is unconscionable.
When the Horowitz report was released a few
days ago, some media and Democrats claimed
it was a vindication for the FBI, because he did
not find that the Russia-Trump investigation
was a political hit job ordered from on high.
Some of the headlines I read as the report
was about to be released were quite ecstatic,
almost giddy.
So was former FBI boss James Comey. He

Thank you very much.
There were several kids sitting at a restaurant
the other day when my husband was there
talking about how drunk they got over the
weekend, blah-blah this and blah-blah that.
Well, problem number one is that none of them

is, where do they get the alcohol? I just wanted
to put that out there for parents.
What did we expect from a three-year investigation of two hoaxes? Two paper-thin Articles; one
on abuse of power, the other on obstruction of
Congress. No collusion, no bribery, no treason,
no quid pro quo. When Obama withheld lethal
aid from Ukraine, he was conducting foreign
policy. When he refused Congress request for
documents on Fast and Furious, he was claiming executive privilege. Never a discouraging
word was uttered by our noble protectors in the
medial. What Independent voter will support a
Tax hikes hide in Governors bipartisan council
After meeting four times, the Governors
Council on Tax Reform has issued a set of
recommendations that sound pretty much like
what the governor has been talking about all
along.
The bipartisan council was led by two former state senators, one from each party, and is
sprinkled with a few Republicans mostly more
liberal than the Democrats, including former
Senate President Steve Morris of Hugoton.
So, what did you expect?
Those include:
A food sales tax rebate. An estimated
400,000 Kansans at the low end of the income
scale would get a refundable credit with limits
based on federal adjusted gross income. The
rest of us would continue to pay this unfair
and regressive tax, which actually costs the
state a lot of money.
Those in border areas go to Colorado,
Nebraska and Missouri to buy groceries where
food taxes are lower or nonexistant. The state
might not collect more if it did away with the
sales tax on food, but the loss would not be as
great as it seems, either, because people would
start to come home to shop and buy many
taxable items at the same stores.

their property taxes by substituting state

cent of sales tax revenues, but the state has not
been able to afford that for more than 20 years.
It cut off the payments entirely in 2003.
A tax on out-of-state market place facilitators and digital products to match the tax
now being collected on out-of-state retailers.
Exempting transportation expenditures
from the states property-tax lid. We predict
property taxes will start to soar, and most
every increase will somehow miraculously fit
into the transportation category.
Local governments have proven over the
years they will not discipline themselves
when it comes to tax increases. Some have a
very good record, but many do not.
Affirming the need to bring back the
three-legged stool in tax policy. The council
found that of the three legs, property taxes
appear to be too high and income taxes too
low.
This is code talk for an income-tax increase,
so watch out.
Caution by the governor and Legislature:
Be very cautious with proposals that diminish revenue until Kansas has fully regained its
fiscal health.
Translation: Were gonna raise income
taxes and soak the rich, defined as everyone
who actually owes income taxes.
Items marked for study next year:
Broadening the tax base (means finding
more ways to tax more people); review of tax
exemptions, meaning that today, the state
does not tax everything, but it could; a review
of progressivity vs. regressivity (our dictionary says those are not really words); decoupling; and property tax relief.
Bottom line: When any government or business talks about reforming rates, prices
or taxes, its code talk for increasing them.
Expect your taxes to go up and then go up
again. Topeka is hungry for the money it did
not get over the last decade.
So, what did you expect?

2020 election too important to be left to voters
The Democrats believe that the 2020 election is too important to be left to the voters.
Its obvious that President Donald Trump
withheld defense aid to Ukraine to pressure its
president to commit to the investigations that
he wanted, an improper use of his power that
should rightly be the focus of congressional
investigation and hearings.
Where the Democrats have gotten tangled
up is trying to find a justification that supports the enormous weight of impeaching and
removing a president for the first time in our
history.
Theyve cycled through different arguments. First, Trumps offense was said to be a
quid pro quo, a phrase cast aside for supposedly being too Latin for the public to understand;
then it was bribery, which has lost ground
lately, presumably because of the inherent
implausibility of the charge; now, the emphasis is on Trumps invitation to the Ukrainians
to meddle and interfere in our elections.
This is posited to be an ongoing threat.
Nancy Pelosi said in her statement calling on
the House to draft articles of impeachment:
Our democracy is what is at stake. The president leaves us no choice but to act because he
is trying to corrupt, once again, the election
for his own benefit.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman
Jerry Nadler said on Meet the Press that
Trump has to be impeached for posing the
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
considerable risk that he poses to the next
election. Asked if he thinks the 2020 election
will be on the up and up, he said: I dont
know. The president, based on his past performance, will do everything he can to make it
not a fair election.
The gravamen of this case is that the election is too crucial to allow the incumbent
president of the United States, who is leading
in key battleground states and has some significant chance of winning, to run. In fact,
the integrity of the election is so at risk that
the U.S. Senate should keep the public from
rendering a judgment on Donald Trumps first
term, or deciding between him and, say, his
nemesis Joe Biden.
Of course, its possible to imagine a circumstance where a president would indeed
present such a grave risk to our elections that
hed have to be removed. This is a reason that
we have the impeachment process in the first
place. But whats the real harm that Trumps
foolhardy Ukraine adventure presented?
The bottom line is that after tsk-tsking
Trump for refusing to say in advance that
hed accept the outcome of the 2016 election,
Democrats have steadfastly refused to truly
accept the 2016 result (allegedly the work of the
Russians) and now are signaling they wont
accept next years election either, should they
lose again.
Given their druthers, Trump wouldnt be
an option for the voters. They are rushing
their impeachment, in part, because they
know that as November 2020 approaches, it
becomes steadily less tenable to portray the
man who wants to run in an election as the
threat to democracy and the people who want
to stop him as its champions.
With every day that passes, the Democrats
risk creating the perception that they themselves are a threat to the 2020 election.

About Black Friday
A dozen years or more ago I first heard the
term Black Friday. Initially I foolishly considered it to be an attempt by the 13 percent of our
U.S. population known as African Americans to
declare another day of recognition. I later came
to
understand
that
on the first
Readers Letters day of the
Christmas
season, that
the merchants of this country try to turn their
red ink to black by having a nationwide sale.
Most likely this term was first used in the
Middle Ages to describe a more sinister event.
In reality the most factual use of this term
was in the European Theater at the very end of
World War II. On Friday, October 13, 1944 in the
lowlands of the Netherlands, on both sides of
the Belgium river Scheldt, a battle raged. In the
end the Nazis completely annihilated the entire
5th Canadian Brigade. The U.S. general Leroy
Erwin declared that date to be Black Friday.

HISTORY
Dec. 2009: Announced closing of
local armory prompts ideas for use
December 2009
Saturdays announced closing of the Garnett National
Guard Armory has prompted
brainstorming among city leaders as to what the facility might
be used for once it reverts to
city ownership. The announcement by the National Guard
said that the closing was a firstround effort to reduce expenses
and that more closings could be
possible. The building was originally constructed in 1954 with a
$50,000 general obligation bond
funded by the city. Armories
in Atchison, Burlington,
Chanute, Cherryvale, Council
Grove, Fort Scott, Garden City,
Goodland, Horton, Kingman,
Larned, Phillipsburg, Russell,
Sabetha, Salina East, Troy and
Winfield are also set for closure.
December 1999
County engineer Hub Caspar
told county commissioners
that it took two county road
department employees a full
day last week to retrieve and
dispose of deer carcasses from
roadside ditches and country
right-of-ways, and suggested the
Kansas Department of Wildlife
and Parks reimburse the county for the expenses. Caspar said
most of the carcasses appeared
to have been shot and partially
butchered because they were
missing only the hind quarters
and loins with the rest of the
animal discarded. Area residents had complained about the
carcasses, which were apparently located throughout the
county.

to fight the bitter cold here.
Damage was contained to the
plant as firemen were successful in keeping it from spreading south to Garnett Church

DIGGING UP THE PAST
December 1979
Thanks to the efforts of the
Greeley Jaycees, several gala
Christmas decorations now
light the main block in town.
The group took on the project to
beautify the town and that more
decorations plan to be added as
funds are raised. The decorations include a Santa atop the
city hall that cost around $1,300.
A dance was held last summer
as a fundraiser and several merchants and individuals donated
to the project.
December 1919
Garnett has needed a greenhouse for many years. A great
deal of money has been sent to
greenhouses in other towns for
flowers the past 15 to 20 years
because we had no place to get
flowers for various purposes
birthdays, weddings, funerals,
etc. This is unnecessary now,
for Mrs. Nellie McDowell has
established a greenhouse at her
home on East Fifth Avenue,
which is already well stocked
with flowers and flowering
plants. It will pay you well to
visit the greenhouse. The community should support this
enterprise for we need it.

To the right is another example of the many crockery shards
I have found at this site
(all colors, shapes & sizes).
Yet, another common iron
harness buckle.
And last, but not least was the
best find of my two outings.
It is a lead Civil War Era Colt
Revolving Rifle bullet. The Colt
Revolving rifles were early
repeating rifles produced by the
Colts Manufacturing Company
from 1855 until 1864. They had
rotating cylinders that held five
or six bullets (rounds) in a wide
variety of caliber from .36 to .64
inches. They were used to a limited extent on the Pony Express
and made a brief appearance in
the American Civil War.
I know the landowners will be
happy with this find, just like I
was when I found it.

Offense struggles in Lady
Lady Bulldogs cant
keep pace with Baldwin Bulldogs loss to Louisburg
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Anderson County
kept it close early on but a dominating 2nd and 3rd quarter propelled Baldwin to a 64-47 victory
last Tuesday.
Baldwin led just 12-11 after
the 1st quarter but over the next
two quarters they outscored
Anderson County 37-21 to pull
away for the comfortable victory.
The Baldwin pressure
proved to be too much for the
Bulldogs to overcome. They
forced Anderson County into 29
turnovers in the contest, compared to just 11 assists.
Baldwin had their fair share
holding onto the ball as well
committing 25 turnovers and
just had 11 assists as well.
The Bulldogs came up well
short in the rebounding department as Baldwin controlled the
rebounding margin 35-20 on the
night.
Leading Anderson County
offensively was Cali Foltz with
16 points, 7 rebounds and 4
assists and Rayna Jasper added
15 points, 6 assists and 3 steals.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
LOUISBURG – First half struggles cause the Anderson County
girls to dig themselves in a hole
too deep to dig out of in a 48-35
loss on Friday at Louisburg.
AC hung tough early on trailing by 6 after the first quarter,
16-10.
Louisburg put some breathing room between them and the
Bulldogs in the second quarter
by controlling the quarter 15-6
to open up a 31-16 advantage at
intermission.
The Lady Bulldogs hung
tough in the second half outpacing Louisburg 19-17, but couldnt
put together a run large enough
to put serious pressure on the
host team.
Rayna Jasper scored over half
the teams points by notching
18 on the night on 6-10 shooting,
including 4-6 on three-pointers,
for the night. Jasper also tacked
on 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 3
steals.
Cali Foltz contributed with 8
points, 8 rebounds and 2 steals
and Marah Lutz scored 4 points
and pulled down a team high 11
rebounds on the night.
Next up for Anderson
County is a home game against
Osawatomie on Thursday night,
which will be the final game
before winter break.

Lady Lancers winless at in Ike Cearfoss Tourney
Humboldt tournament
BY KEVIN GAINES
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
HUMBOLDT – It was a tough
week for the Crest Lancers at the
Humboldt tournament last week
as they lost all three games by at
least 30 points.
The Crest girls opened the
tournament on Tuesday with a
50-17 loss to Erie.
The Lady Lancers hung tough
early on trailing 24-15 at intermission but between intense
defense and a struggling offense,
Crest was held scoreless in the
third quarter and scored just two
fourth quarter points.
L. Godderz led the Lancers
with 12 of their 17 points and
pulled down 6 rebounds in the
contest.
Godderz connected on 3 of 6
attempts inside the arc and just
2-15 from three-point distance,
but she would be the only Lancer
to make a field goal in the contest.
The rest of the team was 0-18
from two-point range and 0-6 on
three-pointers.
Beckmon scored the Lancers
other points by connecting on 5
of 18 free throws. The rest of the
team was a combined 0-6 from
the line.
On Thursday night, the
Lancers played the host team
Humboldt.
Humboldt rolled to a 61-27
win.
Crest trailed by just one at the
end of the first 8-7 and just 25-21
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
at intermission.
In the second half the Crest
girls struggled to keep pace.
Humboldt erupted for 19 points
in the third quarter and 17 more
in the fourth en route to the lopsided victory.
Beckmon led all Crest scorers with 16 points in the game,
added 4 rebounds, 2 steals and 2
assists.
Hermreck was held scoreless
but did lead the team with 9
rebounds and 2 blocks on the
night.
Again the offense just couldnt
find the basket, connecting on
just 8 of 50 shots on the night.
In the final game on Friday
night, Crest again played a
respectable first half before
Uniontown pulled away 52-21.
Uniontown was leading 26-17
at halftime and nearly doubled
that total in the third period
with 23 points while limiting
Crest to just 3 to open up a commanding 48-20 lead heading into
the fourth.
The teams combined for a paltry 4 points in the fourth to close
out the game.
Beckmon scored 17 of the
teams 21 points on the night and
added 5 rebounds and 2 steals.
This week Crest will play at
home on Tuesday night against
Pleasanton before closing out
their pre-winter break schedule with a trip to St. Paul on
Thursday.
RICHMOND – The Central
Heights Vikings opened the Ike
Cearfoss Tournament with a
solid victory of KC Christian,
49-34.
The Vikings jumped out early
13-7 after the first quarter and
24-13 at intermission and shut
down any attempt at a comeback
by KC Christian.
Coffman led the way with 17
points. Crawford chipped in with
11 of his own.
In the second round, the
Vikings let a big victory over
Iola slip away. The Vikings
trailed 21-19 at halftime but
forged ahead in the third quarter to lead 36-34 heading into
the fourth quarter. Iola put the
clamps down defensively in the
fourth and connected on nearly all their fourth quarter free
throws to ice the victory.
Iola only hit three field goals
in the fourth quarter en route to
scoring 18 in the quarter. Iola
did drain 12 of 13 free throws
while Central Heights didnt
attempt a single free throw in the
period while only hitting a pair
of three-pointers and an additional to account for 8 points in
the quarter.
Bower led the Vikings with
15 points, followed closely by
Crawford with 14.
The loss sent Central Heights
to the third place game against
Santa Fe Trail. It was a back and
forth affair in the first half which
saw the Vikings leading 26-24 at
halftime.
who touched this, Horowitz
said.
Did Comey touch it? Or is
he such a Washington silkie
that he would know how to
avoid direct responsibility, but
be able to smile the moment
an underling else slips in the
knife?
Horowitz could only interview current FBI and DOJ
employees. Determining who
slipped in the knife wasnt
Horowitzs job. That is the
job of respected U.S. Attorney
John Durham, who is conducting a criminal investigation as
to how this all began.
Durham was asked to do
that job by Attorney General
William Barr, who doesnt
agree with Horowitz that there
wasnt any political motive in
the FBI for what happened.
I think our nation was
turned on its head for three
years based on a completely
bogus narrative that was large-
SFT erupted for 24 points in
the third quarter which was just
too much for the Vikings to overcome in a 61-50 loss.
Crawford again scored in
double figures with 14 points,
Burson ended the night with 10.
Iola went on to drop the
championship game to Metro
Academy, 61-41.

GARNETT – Anderson Countys
victory on Tuesday night over
Baldwin included a comeback
from 10 points down in the first
half and then the Bulldogs had
to fend off a Baldwin rally late to
win 53-52.
Derek
Rockers
opened
the scoring on the night with
a three-pointer which was followed by Garrett Edens hitting
a three of his own and a layup to
put AC up 8-6 early on.
Baldwin would then seize control of the first half by going on a
17-5 run to take a 23-13 lead late
in the second quarter.
Edens would stop the bleeding
by draining another shot from
long distance to cut the lead to
23-16 as the Bulldogs closed out
the first half on a 10-3 run to
cut the halftime deficit down to
26-23.
Following
intermission
Anderson County would distance themselves slightly from
Baldwin by draining four more
three-pointers en route to 20
points in the period while limiting Baldwin to 10 to put them up
43-36 heading into the fourth.
If not for free throw struggles, the Bulldogs could have put
the game away in the fourth but
they hit just 3-11 from the charity
stripe in the quarter, and just
9-21 in the game, to help Baldwin
rally.
The Bulldogs did just enough
to earn the victory despite being
outscored 16-10 in the final quarter.
While struggling from the
line, Anderson County actually
shot the ball very well on the
night connecting on 8-17 (47%)
from three-point land and 10-19
(54%) from inside the arc for the
game.
Garrett Edens led the way
with 19 points, including 5
three-pointers on the night.
Reese Jarett and Derek Rockers
both also reached double figures
with 13 and 10 points respectively.

Bulldogs struggle early
in loss to Louisburg
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
LOUISBURG – The Bulldogs got
off to a rough start in Friday
nights road game against
Louisburg being outscored 15-4
in the first and werent ever able
to dig out of that hole in a 53-44
defeat.
In that first quarter, Reece
Katzer scored all four of ACs
points off a pair of free throws
and a field goal.
The final three quarters was
led by Garrett Edens offensively
for the Bulldogs as he erupted
for 22 points, 17 of them in the
second half, while the rest of his
team only mustered 18 over that
same span.
Anderson County cut the
halftime deficit down to 25-17
heading into intermission but
just couldnt put that one scoring
spurt together at any point to
make any sort of serious come-
back.
The second half output for
both teams was nearly identical
as Louisburg outscored AC 28-27
to pull out the victory.
Katzer was the only other
player in double figures for
Anderson County with 11 points.
Next up for Anderson
County is a home game against
Osawatomie on Thursday night,
which will be the final game
before winter break.

Vikings finish 6th – lose
two heartbreakers
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – The Central
Heights Lady Vikings finished
a disappointing 6th place at the
Ike Cearfoss Invitational last
week but after winning their
opening round game they lost
their final two of the tournament
by just three points each.
The girls opened play with
KC Christian and won a nail-biter 35-33.
KC Christian held a slim 11-10
lead after the first quarter before
the Vikings limited them to just
4 points in the second to open up
a 20-15 halftime advantage.
The rest of the game would be
back and forth with the Vikings
earning the victory as both
teams struggled offensively in
the fourth period netting only 6
points apiece.
Compton led the Vikings with
10 points.
In the second round game
against Iola, the Vikings lost the
game as both teams struggled
mightily on offense.
The two teams combined for
just 4 points in the first quarter
as the Vikings led 3-1.
Over the next two periods,
Central Heights and Iola would
net 8 points in each to make
the score 19-17 heading into the
fourth.
Iola was able to force overtime and rode that momentum
to score 9 points in the extra
session to win the game 35-32.
Brown scored 17 points and
Meyer chipped in 11 to combine
to score 28 of their teams 32
points on the night.
On Saturday, Osage City
got the upperhand against the
Vikings after coming from
behind to finish with a narrow
40-37 win.
Central Heights led 10-4
after the first quarter and 22-13
at intermission before Osage
City responded to outscore the
Vikings 17-5 in the third quarter
to give them a 30-27 lead heading
into the fourth quarter.
Compton led the Vikings with
15 points in the game.
Santa Fe Trail went on to
down Iola in the championship
game, 31-22.

million, the plants valuation was
later revised to $18.3 million, a figure arrived at by taking the selling
prices of ethanol plants around the

to EKAEs output. EKAE officials
had argued early on certain assets of
the plant assessed by the county as
real property should instead be taxed
as personal property, and that those
deductions brought the value closer

Rebuilt Bulldogs have new coach after back-to-back state appearances
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – After back-to-back
appearances at the state tournament, the Anderson County
Bulldogs head into the 20192020 season with many new
faces, including a new head
coach.
The quartet of Damone
Kueser, Justin Rockers,
Carson Powelson and Kass
Allnutt are gone. The outgoing
seniors represented over 80%
of scoring, rebounding and
virtually all other aspects as
well.
Opportunities are aplenty
with so much production to
replace and that doesnt seem
to faze new head coach Daniel
Ray.
Ray spent the past two seasons at KC Christian High
School and previous to that
coached on the AAU circuit for
24 years as well.
The starting lineup early in
the season will be top returner
Garrett Edens along with Josh
Stifter, Derek Rockers, Reece
Katzer and Josh Martin.
Reese Jarett will also see
plenty of playing time as the
top reserve off the bench.
The starting lineup is fluid
and could change at any point
if someone steps up and proves
they are ready, Coach Ray

stated.
Coach Ray is looking to
open it up on offense and
shrink the floor defensively.
The team is young and
inexperienced but that doesnt
deter Coach Rays expectations for the season.
As every year we will
strive for a winning record,
win league, win substate and
look to advance to the state
tournament, Coach Ray stated.
Coach doesnt believe in
expecting any less despite the
circumstances and is hoping
that attitude will rub off on his
team as the season progresses.
Lady Bulldogs look to build on last seasons success
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – It was a solid
debut season for head coach
Amy Disbrow as she led the
Anderson
County
Lady
Bulldogs to a 10-10 record,
which was a 6 win improvement from the previous season.
In fact, it was the second best
season in the past 10 years.
Three players on last years
team earned All-Pioneer honors, two of them, Rayna Jasper
and Cali Foltz, are returning
this year.
Gone is Jenna Schmit who
also earned All-State honors so
obviously it is a big hole to fill
in the lineup.
Coach Disbrow believes the
mid-January tournament at
Wellsville will be a good barometer of how her team is coming
along this year. The Wellsville
tournament always has great
competition. We should be
great competitors within our
league as well, Disbrow stated.
Disbrow will be leaning on a
solid group of girls this year.
Rayna (Jasper) makes
things happens and never quits.
She causes trouble for other
teams on the press, Disbrow
stated. Jasper was the second
leading scorer on the team last
year.
Cali (Foltz) has been really
focused this year and has progressed her defense intensity
and lost post offensive threat,
Disbrow added.
Senior Autumn Ewert is
injured but Disbrow hopes to
see her return. She is very
intense and gives everything
she has. Her speed and determination is very frustrating to
opponents.
Fellow senior Maya Corley
has really stepped up this year.
She is a good anticipator and
jumps out with steals, Coach
said.

Marah does a great job running
the court and has stepped into
her varsity role without hesitation.
Brooklyn Kurtz played as a
freshman last year and will continue to build into her sophomore season, MaKenzie Kueser
lettered last year and takes
advantage of her speed and
intensity to drive the defense.
Kameron Simpson contributed last year as well and will
play as a true shooting guard

Experienced and determined Bulldogs expect a big season
BY KEVIN GAINES

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Coach Jeremy
McAdam is in his 3rd year at
the helm of the Bulldog wrestling program and is coming off
another successful season in
which 3 boys and 2 girls placed
in the state competition to end
the season.
Joining McAdam are returning assistants Luke Catloth and
Keith Miller.
Nine returning letterwinners
give McAdam a lot to build on
despite a few keys losses from
last years team.
Returning are junior Carter
Summer (113), senior Ryland
Wright (132), junior Ashton
Miller (138), junior Dominic
Ireland (145), senior Lance
Freeman (145), junior Tyler
Denny (152), senior Gavin
Wolken (180), senior Raven
Maley (195) and senior Dallas
Higginbotham (220).
Gone are Dominic Sutton and
Logan Allen. Both had wrestling
scholarships to Neosho County,
Allen is currently a varsity
wrestler there as a freshman.
When asked what were the
highlights of the 2018-2019 season, Coach McAdam stated All
wrestlers that started the season, finished the season.
He added, Dominic (Sutton)
finished 5th at State, Ali Colpani
and Lizzie Comfort both placed
at girls State and also that
we took 8 wrestlers, 7 of them
placed, to the Bobcat Classic and
placed 11th out of 30 teams.
We will continue to roughen our competition again this
year, McAdam stated. The
increase in the level of competition last year showed up at
state, where all 3 boys pulled top
8 finishes.
Sommer,
(Ryland)
Wright,
Miller,
Ireland,
Denny, Freeman, Walker and
Higginbotham are all back
with determination to win,
McAdam said. Newcomers
Brayden Hermreck (106) and
John Wright (126) will fit very
well into the varsity lineup.
McAdams team goals are
simply to be tough in the regular season and tougher in the
postseason.
Toughness and hard work
will naturally equate to team
and individual success as the
season progresses.
We have a very intense
room this year with several 2
and 3 year varsity returners.
Some of those are stacked up at
the same weight. This creates
an even more intense practice
room, McAdam stated. These
kids battle every week for a varsity spot. We have 3 kids at 145
pounds that have wrestled at
least 2 years of varsity and have
all been in the regional blood
round match the past 2 years.
McAdam added, This makes it
tough as a coach but it is the best
thing for the kids in the end.
They all three have to out work
the other ones to stay on top.

Central Heights Vikings are young but expect to be exciting
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – The Central
Heights Vikings in the three
years head coach Tyler
Oestricher has been coaching them has improved from
0-21 to 3-17 and last season
finished 15-6.
Those 15 wins were more
wins then the team had the
previous 5 seasons combined.
Returning
starters
Alex Cannady and Austin
Coffman will be counted on
to help lead the team early
on while the newcomers
become accustomed to their
roles.
Gone are Bryce Sommer,
Matt Cubit, Caleb Meyer
and Dakota Beers. They
accounted for around 60%
of the scoring so they will be
missed greatly.
Last year Cannady averaged 7 points but will look to
increase that as more opportunities arise. Coffman averaged 6 points and nearly 10
rebounds per game to lead
the team.
Bralen Bowker is another key returning player.
Bowker averaged 5 points
per game last year as a
junior.

I look for our team to
be very exciting this year.
We are going to be very
intense in our defensive
front and aggressive on the
offensive end, Coach Tyler
Oestreicher stated.
He added, We have a
solid group of seniors that
are great leaders and have
helped build our culture in
the right direction. We lost
several seniors from last
year and have several players with little varsity experience which will make things
challenging at first. I think
we will overcome those
challenges early and have a
great stretch as the season
progresses. We always look
to get better each year and
hope to build from game to

RICHMOND – Last year the
Vikings had no seniors that
were returning letterman and
they took some expected lumps
along the way as they finished
the season with just 2 victories.
Coach Doug North is looking
for that team that was inexperienced last year to use last
season as a learning curve for
strides in the win department
this year.
This will be Coach Norths
4th season leading the Lady
Vikings but has been in the
coaching profession for 32
years.
A trio of seniors in Abby
Brown, Hailee Riemer and
Cyla Gardner will be looking
to help turn the corner and get
the Vikings back to a winning
foundation.
Juniors Mary Roehl and
Cheyenne Higbie will be joined
by a trio of sophomores, Lily
Meyer, Cameron Peel and
Taryn Compton, that all played
as freshmen last year.
Defensively the team has the
ability to put pressure on the
ball and force some turnovers
but they just need to figure out
a way to put more points on the
board offensively.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, December 17, 2019
Lancers to get program
back to winning ways
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – Heading into last
season head coach Travis
Hermreck stated he wanted to
become relevant again within the league but also stated
that due to his tough schedule
he acknowledged it would be
tough to judge his team just
strictly on wins and losses.
Well Crest had another
middle of the road season, by
Hermrecks standards, within
the league and wilted down the
stretch as they lost their last 4
games to finish the season 8-13.
Top scorer and all-state honorable mention player Hayden
Hermreck (18.7 points per
game) is gone from last years
team, leaving a huge scoring
void to fill.
Early on in the season it
appears senior Zack Beckmon
and junior Kobey Miller will
burden the scoring load for the
Lancers this season.
The Humboldt tournament
is always a tough way to kick off
the season as it has some quality teams and then the midseason Tony Dubray Tournament
in Liberal, Missouri gives the
Lancers a chance to measure
themselves against some solid
competition.
Lady Lancers look to
build for the future
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – The Crest Lady
Lancers will be a vastly inexperienced team but coming off
their most successful season in
the last 10+ seasons gives the
girls some confidence they can
turn the program around.
Crest was 9-12 overall last
year and 6-5 in the league. These
may not be eye popping numbers to many, but consider that
over the last 10 seasons about
half of them resulted in less than
3 wins total.
Gone from that team are
departing
seniors
Regan
Godderz, Jewel Armstrong,
Camryn Strickler and Cassie
Bowen. This will be a tough
group for head coach Megan
Mason, who is in her 3rd season
leading the team, to replace.
Anchoring the team with
will be senior point guard
Rylee Beckmon. Rylee earned
all league honors last year. Key
players joining her in the starting lineup are Aubree Holloran
and Lindsey Godderz.
Making the jump to varsity
as freshmen will be McKenna
Hammond and Haylee Beckmon.
When asked her thoughts
on the coming season, this is
what Coach Mason had to say.
We are a young team. We lost
four talented girls last year so
this will definitely be a building
year. We do have three strong
players returning this year that
saw a lot of playing time last
year. Rylee Beckmon will be
looked to as our point guard.
She came to us right before basketball season started. She was
a huge aspect to our team coming off the bench and eventually starting. Aubree Holloran,
a junior, dominated the boards
for our team. She will be looked
to as our inside girl. Lindsey
Godderz was our freshman last
year that came off the bench. She
is a great defender and quick on
her feet. With these three girls
leading the team, I am hoping
the younger girls will catch on
fast.
Mason added, Our strength is
going to be our speed. Ive seen
the quickness of the girls that
are new to the team and I am
sure they will be able to push
the ball on offense and provide
pressure on defense. This year
is looking like we will actually
have enough girls for a good
size bench that we wont have to
worry about saving our legs for
the entire game. I am excited at
the possibility of being able to
scrimmage in practice. It makes
a huge difference. Our weakness
will be the fact that there are
only 4 returners this year from
our entire team. Even though
I was able to work with some
of the girls coming up in the
summer, they are still new to
the program. I have confidence
that they all impact the team in
a positive manner.

A voice for all
of agriculture
Glenn Brunkow, Pottawatomie
County farmer and rancher
Kansas Farm Bureau
members just finished celebrating our first 100 years. I
say the first 100 years because
one thing that became very
clear to me this year was
KFB is very much a healthy
and vibrant organization. We
have weathered tough times,
grown as an operation and
become the biggest and most
influential general farm organization in the state.
This year we crafted a
strategic plan to serve as a
road map for the near future
of KFB. This document was
created with input from all
105 county Farm Bureaus and
many, many hours of volunteer time from a task force.
It is a living document meant
to help keep KFB the thriving, growing organization of
which we all can be proud.
One of the things brought
to light in the strategic plan
process is the need for our
organization to be more inclusive and continue to be the
umbrella farm group where
all producers can find a home.
As we continue to face challenges in agriculture, more
and more of us look for ideas
that can only be described as
out of the box. The list of niche
or small agriculture ventures
is long and varied, but Kansas
Farm Bureau needs to be the
place that all are welcomed
and the voice that speaks for
everyone.
We do not want to forget
our traditional agriculture
roots. Those of us who raise
conventional crops and livestock will continue to be the
backbone of the organization.
However, we must also welcome others to the table. I
dont think I need to remind
anyone that we are less than
2 percent of the population
thats all of us. We need to
make sure we have a united
voice.
Another main point of the
strategic plan is we must find
a way to strengthen our county Farm Bureaus. Just like
the rest of agriculture, some
of our counties have fallen
on tough times and have seen
membership dwindle as our
rural population shrinks.
We must make sure the very
essence of our grassroots, the
county Farm Bureaus, continue to be the foundation of the
organization.
Without input from every
corner of the state we will
not be a whole organization,
and it will be hard to represent the needs of all farmers
and ranchers. What will it
take to strengthen and help
support each county? I would
guess there are 105 different
answers, and we must think
outside the box. Each county
Farm Bureau is a dynamic
entity unto itself. There is no
cookie-cutter answer.
These are only two of the
main points in the strategic
plan. Each was crafted after
a great deal of input and even
more thought and discussion.
As proud as I am to be a member of Kansas Farm Bureau
and the rich history of the
past 100 years, I am even
more excited and hopeful for
the next 100 years.
"Insight" is a weekly column
published by Kansas Farm
Bureau, the state's largest
farm organization whose mission is to strengthen agriculture and the lives of Kansans
through advocacy, education
and service.
BBB Alert: beware of puppy
scams this holiday season
If you are shopping online
for a pet this holiday season, watch out for scams.
Complaints continue to pour
into Better Business Bureaus
(BBB) Scam Tracker as fake
pet and puppy scams are on
the increase.
Scammers know that
few things pull at a person's
heartstrings like an adorable
puppy, and as consumers
turn to the internet to find
new pets, they will be met
with a slew of heart-tugging
ads. A BBB study found that
many of the ads are scams,
and anyone looking online for
a pet is extremely likely to
encounter one.
Reports have increased
39% since 2017 when BBB first
alerted consumers about the
problem in the in-depth investigative study, Puppy Scams:
How Fake Online Pet Sellers
Steal from Unsuspecting Pet
Buyers."
In the last three years,
BBB received nearly 16,000
complaints and Scam Tracker
reports from consumers
about businesses selling
puppies and other pets. The
FTC estimates only about
10% of victims report these
crimes so the problem is
likely more widespread.
BBBs extensive investigative study of online puppy
scams in 2017 looked at the
scope of this problem, who
is behind it, and the need
for heightened enforcement
and consumer education to
address the issue.
The study notes that in
approximately 60% of reports
to BBB regarding dog sellers,
consumers allegedly never
received the pets they purchased.
Consumers also complain
to BBB about shipping costs,
receiving animals with health
and/or genetic problems and
not receiving proper documentation for the pet.
How the Scam Works
You find an adorable puppy
on a website or an online ad.
Sometimes, scammers claim
they are breeders or pet sellers. Other times, they pretend
to be a distraught pet owner
who must find a new home
for their beloved dog. Either
way, once you inquire about
the pet, they ask you to wire
money to complete the purchase.
The "seller" then promises your pet will be shipped
right away. But there are
always unexpected problems.
Scammers use a variety of
excuses, like saying the airline requires a specific pet
crate or the shipper requires
costly pet insurance — all
of which need to be paid in
advance. With each problem,
scammers promise that they
will refund the unexpected
costs as soon as your pet is
delivered. In many cases, the
pet is never delivered and neither is the refund.
Scammers love to try
to take advantage of people
when they are in highly emotional situations, says Jim
Hegarty, president, and CEO
of BBB serving Nebraska,
South Dakota, The Kansas
Plains and Southwest Iowa.
The excitement of buying a
new pet can cloud good judgment, and victims can be hurt
financially and emotionally
when they realize they have
lost their money along with
hopes for a new pet.
Tips to Protect Yourself
from Pet Scams:
Never
send
money
via Western Union and
Moneygram to people or
companies you don't know
and trust. Once the money is
wired, it is gone for good. The
same goes for prepaid debit
cards or gift cards. Always
use a credit card in case you
need to dispute the charges.
If anyone asks you to pay for
anything with a gift card, you
may be dealing with fraud.
Petscams.com has also seen
people ripped off paying with
Zelle, a digital payment system.
Do an internet search for
the picture of the pet you are
considering. If the same picture appears on multiple websites, you may be dealing with
a fraud. You also can search
for text from ads or testimonials to see if the seller copied it
from another site.
Research prices for the
breed you are interested in
adopting or purchasing. If
someone advertises a purebred dog for free or at a deeply
discounted price, you could
be dealing with a fraudulent
offer. If they state that they
register their dogs with a specific organization or registry,
confirm by contacting the registry or organization directly.
Check out the website. Go to
petscams.com to see if a site
selling pets is bogus.

the Kansas Corn Growers
Association based in Garnett
noted it had worked with
the National Corn Growers
Association to make passage of
USMCA a top lobbying priority in 2019, and urged the quick
ratification of the agreement
by Congress.
We are encouraged by progress made in the USMCA nego-
tiations that could pave the way
to USMCA ratification before
the end of the year, Kansas
Corn Growers Association
vice-president Brent Rogers
said. Collectively, Mexico
and Canada account for more
than half of all U.S. exports of
corn in all forms, including
corn, red meat, ethanol and
DDGS. The long-term stability
provided by USMCA will open
the doors for increased ethanol
exports to Canada and Mexico
as both countries work toward
a baseline of E10 fuel.
The USDAs Census of
Agriculture 2017 estimates

possible owners failed to execute on its purchase, its time
was nigh.
Weiner said a possible
prospect was interested in the
property when it was up for
sale at the recent Anderson
County delinquent tax sale,
but had missed the event.
That means the building is
still on the county tax rolls
with a $20,000 lien against it.
He said a salvage purchase at
the county tax sale was likely the only way the property
would be purchased because
of the extensive renovations
required to make it serviceable again, and thats what
the prospect had intended.
However the sale came and
went without it being purchased. The next tax sale
probably wouldnt take place
for about three years, Weiner
told commissioners, and the
building probably wouldnt be
salvageable that long.
Weiner estimated a $10,000
cost to tear down the building which would be borne
by the city and added to the
lien against it, which would
be another detriment to the
chances it might be pur-
chased. He said he planned to
start seeking bids on demolishing the structure in coming
weeks, but wanted to make
sure any last chance of salvaging the building had been
exhausted.
The historic structure last
housed Denises Caf until it
closed in 2011 amid tax delinquency and state and federal
tax lien issues. When it was
built some 140 years ago, the
building was one of the closest
downtown hotels to the citys
railroad depot and operated
two retail storefronts from its
first floor.
