Whats for
lunch?
Students left unsatisfied by new standards
It used to be fun to cook for them.
Now, Im ashamed of what I put on there.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
By 3 p.m., theyre hungry.
At Anderson County High School and
Crest, students say they arent receiving
enough fuel at lunchtime to hold them
over until dinner.
The ones who have sports practice
bring snacks crackers, granola bars,
potato chips to make it through practice.
Others claim they raid the refrigerator as
soon as they get home, looking for anything that will fill hungry tummies.
I usually snack quite a bit before
dinner. Whatever is in the fridge, Jesse
Boone, a senior at Crest, said.
The federal governments new school
lunch standards have created a bit of a
Catch 22. The aim of the new standards,
called the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act
of 2010, is to improve child nutrition and
encourage healthful eating habits. But
local students say they are left hungry
by the new school lunches, and resort to
eating even more unhealthy foods to compensate.
Crest superintendent and high school
principal Jerry Turner said he knows
students are stashing chips and cookies
in lockers, but he doesnt blame them.
Theyre hungry, he said. They dont
like the fact that the quantity of food is

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Hope for a wet winter to
quench a parched Anderson
County may be drying up.
Weather experts have
changed their predictions for
rain and snowfall for much
of the Midwest, now calling
for normal or below normal
amounts of precipitation in
December. The drought, now
in its second year, is expected
to continue through at least
February.
Thats
discouraging
news for many in Anderson
County, after a difficult summer that saw a decimated
corn crop and reduced soybeans. Some parts of the
county instituted water
restrictions, and the Cedar
Valley Reservoir is at a
record low level. One major
industry, the East Kansas

new federal guidelines for school lunches.
shuttered its operations
because of the poor corn
harvest. Ethanol plant officials hoped to reopen the
plant next summer, but if
the drought continues and
corn supplies remain low,
that could be a dismal prospect.
If no precipitation is
received in December, this
will rank as the 11th driest
year on record, according to
Kansas State Climatologist
Mary Knapp. The county is
about 9 inches below average rainfall, ranking it as
one of the worst along with
other dry years like 1956,
1980, 1940, 2003 and 1936. For
two-year deficits, the county
still would rank 11th driest.
The driest two-year period
on record for the county was
1936-1937.
On a five-year average,
however, the county actually
falls on the wet side, Knapp
said. Thats because of wet
years like 2009, which was
14.27 inches above normal.

Above, new school lunch standards at Anderson County High
School translate to smaller whole wheat buns, sweet potato
sticks instead of French fries, and increased fruits and vegetables. At right, Crest offered mashed potatoes with chicken
and noodles, a small wheat roll available only to students in
grades 9-12, a whole orange and green beans. Students say
there isnt enough substance to the meal to keep them from
feeling hungry by the end of the day, especially for student
athletes.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT What will a new
hospital mean to the people
of Anderson County?
Thats the key question
Anderson County Hospital
officials hope to answer
before asking voters in the
spring to approve a new facility, likely at a cost of millions
of dollars.
Survey and design crews
are reviewing the hospital
and its grounds to design
a new facility. Theyre also
talking to departmental leaders and their staff about the
flow of patients to determine
how to best serve patients in
a new facility.
That process is expected
to continue throughout the
rest of the year. Then, hospital officials will have an
idea of what kind of facility they will ask voters to
approve, and how much it
will all cost.
Theyll also have a similar study to show the cost
of maintaining services at
the current facility, if voters
reject the proposal for a new
hospital.
I have every hope and
confidence we will be successful, but I think people
need to understand what it
would take to remain here
as opposed to what it would
take to do a new hospital,
ACH administrator Denny
Hachenberg said.
Hospital officials last
summer asked commissioners to put a question on the
November ballot for a new

ANDERSON COUNTY BOARD OF
COMMISSIONERS NOVEMBER 19
Chairman Dudley R. Feuerborn called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Board of Commissioners to order at
9:00 a.m. on November 19 at the
County Commission Room. Attendance:
Dudley R. Feuerborn, Present: Eugene
Highberger, Present: James K. Johnson,
Present. The pledge of allegiance was
recited. Minutes of the previous meeting
were read and approved.
Road and Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road Supervisor, met
with the commission. He reported the
railroad has installed stop signs on several crossing gates. Discussion was held
on whether the railroad should have
contacted the county prior to installation.
Lester questioned whether the commission would consider allowing him to
purchase a lay down machine. Since he
has all the millings from the highway he
could use them for more than just pugging. A new lay down machine would run
around $150,000 but he could probably
find one for about $100,000.
Landfill
Chris and Carol Nearhood met with
the commission. They questioned certain activity at the landfill.
Engineer
Dan Harden, Engineer, met with the
commission. He showed the commission
a report on projects proposed by KDOT
in the next couple of years involving
the roads in Anderson County. He presented a proposal for BG Consultants
to work on the engineering design for
the bridge on Oregon Road that the
state has declared fracture critical. The
county responsibility would run approximately $100,000 and would be payable
in 2015. Commissioner Johnson moved
to hire BG Consultants for the bridge
on Oregon Road at a cost of $39,960.
Commissioner Highberger seconded.
Approved 3-0. Commission questioned
Dan on the railroad putting stop signs
on the railroad signs. He felt they had
to have the approval of the legislature
before they can do something like that.
He will check and see if approval has
been given.
Bond Refinancing
David Arteberry, George K. Baum
& Company, met with the commission.
He reported there is the possibility of
refinancing the PBC bonds and saving approximately $250,000. There are
other issues to look at that could affect
the issue and would make it better to
wait for a period of time to proceed. The
outcome of an election on the hospital
could also affect the benefit of refinancing.
Executive Session
Commissioner Johnson moved to
recess into executive session for 15
minutes to discuss non-elected personnel with James Campbell, County
Counselor, in attendance. Open meeting
to resume at 11:25 a.m. Commissioner
Highberger seconded. Approved 3-0. No
action after executive session.

SIGNS…
FROM PAGE 1A
five way-finding signs to
direct people to key destinations, such as the lakes or
parks. It is not yet known just
what those signs will look like
or how much they will cost.
However, drawings for the signs
are expected to be presented
to the Tourism and Branding
Advisory boards in December
or January. Bid proposals are
expected to go out in February,
and commissioners could make
a decision on the signs as early
as March or April, 2013. Martin
also plans to pursue grants to
help pay the cost of the signs,
whatever that may be.
The five signs will be placed
at key intersections, such as:
Junction of U.S. 59 and 169.
Fourth and Maple.
Sixth Avenue and U.S. 169.
Fourth Avenue and U.S.
169.

27 edition of The Review incorrectly identified Father Matthew
Schiffelbein of Holy Angels
Catholic Church.
Jerry Sutton, Garnett, November 23,
DUI 2nd conviction.
Park Road and U.S. 169.
Another key feature of the
project is to install new welcome signs at the north and
south parts of the city on U.S.
59. Those signs already have
been designed and bids have
been received, with an expected
cost of $7,690 for both signs.
Installation is expected to take
about six weeks, but city officials are pursuing grants and
donations to help pay for the
signs. Martin said installation
wont be done until the city has
figured out how it will pay for
the signs.
The ongoing sign project
began in May 2011 after a survey of the city by an outside
group found it was very difficult to navigate around the
city because of poor signs. The
group said the city has many
attractions for its size, especially
lakes and parks, but their locations are not clearly marked.
A study with a KU professor
led to efforts to re-brand the
city using the resident-picked
slogan, Small, Serene, Simply
Garnett and a new logo. The
way-finding signs will incorporate that logo and brand.
Another part of the plan
is to install new street signs,
which the city must do to meet
new federal guidelines. Martin
submitted an earlier proposal
for those signs, expected to cost
about $15,000.
Commissioner Preston Peine
and Mayor Greg Gwin thanked
Martin for the plan. Peine,
especially, had pressed for a
specific outline of the project
after expressing concern that
various groups would be coming to the commission and asking for money to pay for signs,
but commissioners didnt have
clear expectations about the
amount or type of signs, or the
costs.

limited and youve taken away
their favorite foods.
The new standards call for
controlled portion sizes and substitution of healthier foods such
as wheat bread instead of white
or sweet potato wedges instead
of French fries. Students also
are served significantly more
fruits and vegetables.
Anderson County Jr. Sr.
High School principal Kenny
Kellstadt said unhealthy eating isnt a problem that can be
fixed simply by changing school
lunches.
Its hard to change eating
habits, especially at this age.
You cant always get kids to eat
healthy, he said.
Both Kellstadt and Turner
said their biggest concerns are
hungry kids, especially student
athletes who may need additional fuel, and waste of foods
the kids wont eat. Even more
frustrating is the new standards
limit a schools ability to modify
foods to fit the needs of students, such as student athletes,
they say.
Although the intentions are
good, you cant force students
to eat food they dont like, Crest
cook Peggy Rogers said. She
sees more waste most of those
increased servings of fruits and
vegetables end up in the garbage.
Most of all, she hates to see
the disappointed look on the
face of a child when she hands
him or her a tray of food.
It used to be fun to cook
for them, Rogers said. Now,
youre kind of ashamed of what
you put on there.
At Anderson County, sophomore Eliza Sibley said its very
difficult for student athletes to
make it through a day of school
and practice afterward. She is
on the cross country team, and
brought granola bars to school
on days she had practice.
Tana Benton, a sophomore,
said shes looking forward to her
junior and senior year when she
can leave the school at lunchtime. At ACHS, upperclassmen
have that option. ACHS also
offers an ala carte menu from
time to time, but students must
pay for those things out of their
own pockets.
Complaints about the new
school lunch standards abound.
At Crest, students previously
could get second helpings.
Thats no longer allowed.
Students also could ask the
cooks not to give them food they
dont like, such as vegetables,
but now cooks must put everything on the tray.
Kyle Hammond, a senior at
Crest who plays football and
basketball, said he usually
heads home after school for a
peanut butter and jelly sandwich before returning for practice.
Fellow Crest senior Callee
Calloway misses the giant cinnamon rolls, and most students
said what they miss the most
are large, soft white rolls. Now,
they must eat small wheat rolls
that most said were hard. The
Crest students especially missed
some of their favorite foods, like
Frito chili pie.
Calloway said she usually
heads to Subway sandwich shop
after school.
I get to pick what I want,
she said.
But the goal of encouraging
students to eat more vegetables
is working to some degree.
Tessa McCown, a sophomore at
ACHS, said the quality of fruits
and vegetables has improved
and she is more likely to eat
things like salad something
she wouldnt have touched last
year.
Rogers, the Crest cook,
said the recipes for new food
items are actually pretty good.
Kellstadt said some of the new
menu items, such as a taco soup
and chicken enchiladas, have
been a hit.
The long-term affect of the
changes may result in elementary students developing better eating habits, Kellstadt
said. Because of initiatives and
grants, younger students benefit from healthy snack programs. Theyre also more likely
to try new foods… sometimes,
he said.
Our kids will eat broccoli if
you put cheese on it, Kellstadt
said. But I dont know that
youre ever going to make someone like spinach.
There will be more changes
ahead. Next year, breakfast will
face similar restrictions.
Kellstadt said hes not
sure how that will affect area
schools. Hes especially curious if the school still will be
allowed to serve biscuits and
gravy, a breakfast tradition
every Thursday in the district
and the most popular breakfast
food.
I hope it doesnt go away
with the new guidelines or I
might have mutiny, he said.
DROUGHT…
FROM PAGE 1A
If a normal amount of rainfall is received 1.73 inches in
December the year still would
rank as 15th driest, Knapp said.
Even the wettest December
on record, at 4.99 inches, still
wouldnt be enough to overcome
the deficit.
December is not a particularly wet month on average,
Knapp said. Even outpacing
the wettest December on record,
it wont make for much of a shift
in the drought status, thus I do
expect the drought to continue
at least through February.
Weather experts had expected an El Nino weather pattern
to develop, bringing more rainfall than average over the Fall.
However, that didnt happen.
The Drought Monitor, which
tracks drought conditions in
the U.S., shows nearly all of the
state is in severe to exceptional
drought, and that is expected to
continue through February.
Moderate snow or rain in
December could increase topsoil
moisture and make for favorable
conditions leading into spring,
Knapp said. But the best bet is
for above-average precipitation
in March and April, she said.

KANSAS STATEHOUSE COLUMNIST
Is Brownback
a cheap date?
Political games continue
in judge appointment racket
Ever wonder whether youor at least
one of youwould have had a better
time on that first date if you had gone to
a restaurant where salt came in shakers
instead of those little paper packets that
you have to tear one end off to sprinkle?
Or whether you ordered chicken
instead of steak because you werent
sure just how much you wanted to
spend?
Well, fanciful analogies aside, the
Kansas Supreme Court Nominating
Commission is apparently trying to find
out whether Gov. Sam Brownback is a
cheap date.
Remember that just three weeks
ago the commission, which Brownback
doesnt much care for, pointedly sent
to him a list of three Kansas Court of
Appeals nominees that didnt include
the names of two conservatives who, we
have to believe, Brownback would have
enjoyed sending either one to the states
second-highest court.
The thought then: Brownback is
going to do away with the nominating
commission, made up of nine members
five lawyers elected by the Kansas
Bar Association and four non-lawyers
appointed by the governoranyway, so it
might as well try to load up the Appeals
Court with lawyer-chosen judges
before Brownback can have the system
changed.
And then came Friday (before
Brownback has even made his selection
from the earlier trio), when the nominating commission offered to the governor
the three-nominee basket which this
time includes five-term former State Rep.
and eight-year Sedgwick County District
Court Judge Anthony Powell, who used
to be R-Wichita, but who is now generally referred to as your honor.
Time for a digression: At this point,
it really doesnt matter whether Powell
is a strict conservative judge, reading
just the law and not the circumstances
which brought him cases, or a moderate who looks to the law for principles
and applies them to the world we live in.
At this point Powell, for most Kansans,
becomes just a well-known Republican
who has stood for election and won
thats how they do it in Sedgwick
Countyin one of the states most conservative counties. (Digression ends.)
So…does sending Brownback a
nominee popularlyat least by courtwatcherslabeled conservative mean
that the lawyer-heavy selection system
works? Or does it mean, for Brownbacks
purposes, it works half the time?
Oh, and dont even get into the situation where Brownback refuses to make
a selection and Kansas Supreme Court
Chief Justice Lawton Nuss (an appointee of moderate Republican former Gov.
Bill Graves) has to make the choice.
That puts the Supreme Court (nominees
selected by the same commission) on the
block, doesnt it?
Where does this all go? It seems that
the nominating commission is trying to
determine whether Brownback, born
in the low-frills farming community of
Parker, is a cheap date.
We ought to know in a couple
weeks, but were betting that courting
Brownback with the occasional conservative isnt going to work. Hes just not a
cheap date…

Hating Grover
BY RICH LOWRY
NATIONAL REVIEW
Listening to Democrats and the media,
you could be forgiven for thinking the point
of a deal over the looming fiscal cliff
wouldnt be to reduce the deficit so much as
to reduce the influence of one man, Grover
Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform.
Known to one and all simply as Grover,
he is the keeper of the Taxpayer Protection
Pledge signed by almost
all Republicans committing themselves not
to raise taxes. For this
offense, Grover is deemed
the enemy of all that is
right and just.
The pollster and ABC News
commentator Matthew
Lowry
Dowd said on This Week
that Grover Norquist is
an impediment to good governing. The only
good thing about Grover Norquist is that he
was named after a character from Sesame
Street. Not everyone has been as juvenile
as Dowd, but he captured the gleeful spirit
of the anti-Norquist pile-on.
The idea that wed have good governing
only if more tax increases were thrown on
top of poorly designed, out-of-control entitlements, wasteful subsidies, rotten schools
and an ever-growing mess of regulation
is fanciful. Obamacare increased taxes by
more than $500 billion, and our governing did not noticeably become better as a
result.
Grover has three insights that are absolutely correct: 1) Revenues from tax increases
will almost invariably be spent. Does anyone believe that if George W. Bush had not
cut taxes early in his first term that the
Tom DeLay and Nancy Pelosi Congresses
wouldnt have, in their collective wisdom,
found ways to spend the additional rev-
enues? 2) The typical structure of the
Washington budget deal is tax increases
now in exchange for promised spending
cuts over time that dont materialize. 3) The
Republican brand is dependent on its status
as the anti-tax party.
These arent alien beliefs foisted on
the Republican Party, but represent GOP
orthodoxy. Nonetheless, everyone acts as
if Grover is the instrument of the partys
Babylonian captivity. If only the dastardly
Norquist didnt make Republicans say they
wont raise taxes — and put it in writing -the party could fulfill its role in the good
governing of Washington, namely joining
Democrats to raise taxes.
The proof of the supposed perversity
of Grovers influence is the widely cited
hypothetical example of a Democratic offer
to cut $10 in spending for every $1 in new
tax dollars. Of course, its all academic
because such a deal will never, ever be on
offer. Hypotheticals work both ways, or
they should. What would Democrats be
willing to accept in exchange for signing off
on a premium support plan for Medicare?
Nothing.
What makes this time different than prior
budget showdowns is that Republicans
can remain technically compliant with the
pledge by doing nothing, and taxes would
still go up on everyone automatically at the
end of the year.
A deal, then, could make sense, depending
on the parameters. As the cliff approaches,
all the pressure within Washington and
within the media will be for Republicans
simply to cave to the president. Grover will
make it as painful as possible for them to
do it, and should wear the resulting elite
obloquy as a badge of honor.

Review.

Yes, the Christmas parade in downtown Garnett
used to be designed as a time that downtown
businesses could take advantage of the crowd
and hopefully do some business on that night. At
least thats the way I remember it being set up.
But seems like the restaurants downtown now,
and there are several of them that were open
during last weeks Christmas parade, have to
contend and compete with organizations that are
publicly funded or volunteer groups like the fire
departments chili feed or bean feed or whatever it
was. Makes it awfully hard. Theyre selling those
tickets for a few dollars because they dont have
to make a living on what theyre doing. The restaurants downtown would sure like to be able to
capitalize on that crowd, but its tough to do when
they can go to the fire department and have dinner for three or four dollars and the restaurants
are trying to charge their regular prices. Nothing
against the fire department, its a great organization and we certainly need them, but do they have
to steal business from other businesses that are
trying to make a living? Its hard enough to keep
businesses in downtown anyway- look how many
were losing. Be nice to have that fire department
fundraiser on another night. Thank you.
To the person who complains about needing a
no-parking zone on East Fourth Street during
church hours. If you cant beatem, joinem. Just
walk across the street and come to church with
us. Wed love to have you. Thats all- bye.
I want to say thank you to all the businesses
downtown that have the pretty decorations in
their windows and all the lights that are down
Fourth Street and the new Christmas decorations
on the light posts. It all looks really pretty and
makes us proud to be a part of this town.
I just want to say that Im thankful that Garnett
has an awesome grocery store for a small town.
Were really lucky. Thank you for having everything that I needed to fix my Thanksgiving feast.
Thank you.
Now that we got the sidewalks fixed so the wheel
chair people can get to the grocery store, we now
have another problem. People are blocking the
sidewalks by parking over it. Down on First Street
between Elm and Vine theres a place where the
sidewalk is cluttered with toys all the time and in
that area theres a car that parks over the sidewalk there. I talked to the chief of police and he
said its against the law to obstruct the sidewalk,
and that if we see one that is we should call 911
and report it, that way his officers can give them
their first warning ticket and after that they will
receive a ticket. Theres also a place on Oak Street
that also blocks their sidewalk with vehicles. So
people, please, look out for the handicapped and
whenever you see this dont be afraid to call 911
and report it so the police department can catch
them in the act.
When I called in about the school and not having
kids at that school that were different, I didnt
mean anything about Downs Syndrome or anything like that. Im talking about the violent kids.
The ones that when Ive been at the school Ive
seen grown ups physically dragging them someplace and I just dont like it. Never meant to hurt
no ones feelings.
I would like to know how this one person that has
a certain last name gets violently drunk, tries
to kill someone thats disabled, makes harmful
threats to disabled people, beats on women when
he is violently drunk and turns animals loose.
They say they dont have enough man force. Also
on the same block theres people that go in and
out of one certain house that is not just relatives.
So I think somebody needs to check into that.
Thank you.

We had a thrill: Dr. (deleted) danced, and what a
thrill she is.
Its a great time to get a flu shot
Each flu season, different flu viruses spread
and affect people differently based on their
bodys ability to fight infection. Even healthy
children and adults can get very sick from the
flu and spread it to friends, co-workers, and
family.
The flu is a contagious
respiratory illness caused by
influenza viruses that infect
the nose, throat, and lungs. It
can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to
death. The actual influenza
virus is not associated with
the gastrointestinal stomMoore
ach flu as some might think.
Symptoms of influenza can
include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or
stuffy nose, body aches, headache, chills and
fatigue. People may be infected with the flu
and have no symptoms at all or only respiratory symptoms without a fever. The best way to
prevent the flu is by getting a flu vaccine each
year. In the United States, thousands of healthy
adults and children have to visit the doctor or
are hospitalized from flu complications each
year.
While flu can make anyone sick, certain people are at greater risk for severe illness resulting
in hospitalization or death. This includes older
adults, young children, people with certain long
term health conditions such as asthma, dia-
betes, and heart disease and women who are
pregnant.
AuBurn Pharmacy, in partnership with
the Center for Disease Control, is encouraging those in our community who have not yet
received a flu shot to do so this week during
National Influenza Vaccination Week. Even
though the holiday season has arrived, it is not
too late to get your flu vaccine. With flu activity
increasing and family and friends gathering for
the holidays, now is a great time to get a flu vaccine to protect yourself and your loved ones. It
takes about two weeks after vaccination for the
body to develop full protective immunity. Flu
activity usually peaks in February in the United
States and can last as late as May. As long as flu
viruses are spreading and causing illness, vaccination can provide protection against the flu
and should continue.
Even unvaccinated people who have already
gotten sick with one flu virus can still benefit
from vaccination since the flu vaccine protects
against three different flu viruses that are predicted to be the ones that will circulate each season. Flu vaccines are offered in many locations,
including doctors offices, clinics, health departments, and pharmacies, as well as by many
employers and schools. AuBurn Pharmacy
offers walk-in flu shots and other vaccinations
every day.
People give many reasons for not getting a
flu shot and most of them are because of wide-
spread myths. Here are a few things everyone
should know. Flu vaccines cannot cause flu
illness. Injected flu vaccines only contain dead
virus, and a dead virus is, well, dead: it cant
infect you.
There is one type of live virus flu vaccine,
the nasal vaccine, FluMist. But in this case,
the virus is specially engineered to remove
the parts of the virus that make people sick.
Antibiotics cannot fight the flu. Antibiotics only
fight bacterial infections. Flu — whether its
typical seasonal flu or swine flu — is not caused
by bacteria, but by a virus. So antibiotics have
absolutely no effect on any kind of flu.
The flu is dangerous for everyone. Its true
that the people most likely to become seriously ill or die from the seasonal flu are over
age 65. But flu can become risky for anyone,
even healthy young adults. Some of the most
susceptible people to seasonal influenza are
young children. Contact your local AuBurn
pharmacist with any questions you may have
about flu vaccinations and we would be happy
to answer them for you. For more information
about National Influenza Vaccination Week,
please visit CDC Seasonal Flu website: http://

Fall maintenance on your field system Greeley releases honor rolls
We are definitely in desperate need of rain. It seems as
though the clouds have forgotten how to let the rain drop.
Please continue to pray for
rain.
Harvest (what it was) is
quickly coming to a close.
Many are starting to plant
wheat and conduct yearly field
checks for any erosion problems that may have occurred
through the year. Taking care
of fields or the land is like taking care of a car or a tractor.
You need to perform regular
maintenance. This year did
not bring much rainfall to the
area and surrounding counties. But it is always good to do
a maintenance check. When
we are blessed with rain, each
raindrop that falls from the sky
brings with it the possibility
of erosion. So if our fields are
not quite up to handling the
water loads, fields could have
a lot of channeling and lead to
significant soil loss. Checking
over your fields during harvest time or when preparing
for that fall wheat planting, is
what you can do towards conducting Fall Maintenance on
Your Field System. You will
want to look at the whole field
system to see that the System
is functioning at its best or that
you may want to improve the
fields production.
Some of the things that you
should be looking for is channeling or washing in a field.
Why are there channels or
washes? The answers could
be that the terraces could be
broken; maybe the terraces
need to be re-built to a standard of 1 foot 5 inches high;
old terrace systems may be
over-spaced or poorly aligned.
Remember, terraces do require
maintenance to keep performing the way they were intended.
Maintenance may require landowners to either use a plow to
AD

Considering
Conservation
by Mary Lou Ponder
Linn, Anderson & Coffey
County Buffer Coordinator
build up the terraces and clean
terrace channels or have a contractor rebuild them.
Lets move down the field
system to the next question of
Are the terraces dumping the
water into a suitable and stable
outlet? Most of the time terraces dump their water into a
waterway; which is another part
of the field system. Waterways
also require maintenance to
perform as they were originally designed. You will need to
make sure that the grass stand,
in the waterway, is well established to handle the water loads
that are dumped from terraces.
Another waterway maintenance practice is the removal
of trees from waterways. Trees
prevent water from properly
flowing from terraces and block
your field system.
The next question could be Is
the water getting to the waterway or is it running beside the
waterway? If the water is running alongside the waterway,
either the terraces have never
been cut-in to the waterway
or the waterway has come to
the end of its life. Waterways
are designed to hold the sediment that may possibly drain
off with water flow from terraces. Waterways will then fill up
with sediment over a period of
time, restricting water flow and
causing water to start flowing
to the outside of the waterway.
A new waterway may then have
to be constructed next to the
old one to improve the overall
health of your field system.
Some people prefer to clean out
and give the old waterway a
facelift. If that works better
in your Field System, it can be
accomplished.
Maintenance is something
that you, as a landowner or
producer, can do to preserve
the soil that is on your field
and improve water quality. Checking for washes or
channels in the field or other
problem areas that may arise
are the first signs that things
are not working quite right.
Asking for assistance in planning out a program to repair
the washes and other problem
areas are what you can do to
improve your field system.
That is where NRCS and the
Anderson County Conservation
District can assist with planning towards the repair of your
field system.

Central Heights boys hammered out a 15-7 first quarter
lead against Prairie View Friday
night in their 2012 basketball
season opener, and those turned
out to be the points that won the
game for the Vikings 52-47.
Prairie View woke up and
smacked back in the second
period with 16 points to the
Vikings 10 to make it 25-22
Vikings at the half. The Vikes
edged the Buffs by three in the
third period and shot it out to a

Flu vaccine recommended for almost everyone
An annual flu vaccination is
the best way to prevent the flu
and the flu-related complications that could lead to hospitalization and even death.
Health experts across the country recommend that everyone
6 months and older get a flu
vaccine.
Over the years, the number
of people recommended for
flu vaccination grew steadily
as experts learned more about
who was at highest risk for
flu complications or who was
bearing the greatest burden of
illness and possibly playing a
role in spreading flu in the community. Scientists and public
health experts came to recognize that while influenza is particularly dangerous for certain
people, it can cause severe illness and even death for anyone,
regardless of whether or not
they have high risk conditions.
In fact, influenza is among the
most common respiratory illnesses in the United States,
infecting millions of people
every flu season. However, only
46% of people 6 months of age
and older were vaccinated during the 2011-12 season.
Every year, flu spreads
across the country, from person to person, family to family,
and community to community. The severity of flu illness
can vary from mild to severe.
When severe, flu complications
can lead to hospitalization and
sometimes even death. Even
healthy children and adults can
get very sick from the flu.
One of the greatest challenges we face from the flu is
the uncertainty of the disease,
Richmond
Christmas
Festival set
for Dec. 8
explains Dr. Anne Schuchat,
Director of the National
Center for Immunization and
Respiratory Diseases at the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). Flu viruses
are constantly changing. Each
flu season, different flu viruses can spread, and they can
affect people differently based
on their bodys ability to fight
infection.
Over a period of 31 seasons
between 1976 and 2007, estimates of flu-associated deaths
in the United States range from
a low of about 3,000 to a high of
about 49,000 people. And, each
year its estimated that more
than 200,000 people are hospitalized because of flu-related
complications. People with
certain long-term health conditions (e.g., heart disease, diabe-
tes, asthma) are at greater risk
of experiencing serious health
complications as a result of flu.
A flu vaccine is the first and
best way to prevent influenza
and is particularly important in
people who are at higher risk of
serious flu complications. For a
complete list of people at highest risk, see http://www.cdc.
gov/flu/about/disease/high_
risk.htm.
Getting a flu vaccine is more
convenient than ever before.
Vaccines are available, for
example, from your doctor or
local health department, and at
many retail pharmacies. Many
employers, schools, colleges
and universities also offer flu
vaccines. Moreover, the annual
vaccine supply continues to
grow, helping to ensure that
enough vaccine is available for
everyone who wishes to be vaccinated. So when youre out and
about in your community and
see signs offering flu shots, or
when you visit your doctor for
a routine check-up, remember:
the flu vaccine is the single best
way to prevent the flu.
There are some people who
should not get a flu vaccine, for
instance, people who have had
a severe reaction to a flu vaccine or any of its components
in the past. For more information about who should and who
should not get vaccinated, visit
http://www.cdc.gov/flu/protect/whoshouldvax.htm.
For more information about
the flu vaccine, go online to

launched a new website dedicated to helping Kansans with their
future long-term service and
supports needs. The webpage is
www.ksadrc.org. It guides residents on how to use the new
statewide Aging and Disability

The website is a great place
for families and caregivers to
learn more about their options,
KDADS Secretary Shawn

to working with the ADRC to
give families peace of mind.
On Nov. 1, the ADRC began
taking calls from Kansansproviding information and referrals.
ADRC staff members are trained
to put residents in contact with
local Options Counselors. We
want to empower older adults
and persons with disabilities to
make informed choices about
their services and supports.
Referrals include a wide range
of in-home, community-based
and institutional services.
KDADS recently signed a
contract with the Southwest

LOCAL
Farm wives worked hard
Whatever the facts may be
today, few American women
were pampered prior to the latter part of the 19th century.
Whether they lived on farms
as many did, or in towns and
villages, the woman kept physically busy from dawn to dusk
and later, as did their husbands
and older children. There was
precious little time for PTA
meetings, womens or garden
clubs, voters or planned parenthood meetings, and other
feminine organizations such as
we know today. Indeed, young
girls were so busy with urgent
family work that they had all
too little time to spend on formal education.
One farm wife in Ohio told a
visitor her farm was so self-sufficient that she needed money
only to buy coffee, tea and whiskey. She said she could raise
whatever money she needed
any day by sending butter and
chickens to market. Except for
iron to make implements and
some salt, everything the family really required was raised
or made on the farm.
The farmers lady played an
important part in filling those
needs. To provide clothing for
the family, she and her older
daughters, and perhaps grandma, carded the wool, hatcheted the flax, spun the yarn,
wove the cloth, and then sewed
the homespun garments that
family members wore, including those made from deerskin,
rawhide and other kinds of

for local archeology information.
leather.
This, however, was mostly
spare-time work, performed in
the evening when other household work had been completed, such as washing the family clothes aided by a large tub
and wash boarding and ironing
them with flat irons that had
to be heated on the top of the
stove.
Naturally, the farm wife
also cooked the food, baked the
bread, pies, biscuits, and cakes,
and put up the jellies, jams,
and preserves in her king sized
kitchen with its huge open fireplace and later its iron range.
There was no store bought
bread or jam in those days and,
if there had been, the family
would not have had the money
to buy them.
The good lady also made or
helped make essential household supplies by churning butter, pouring candles, pickling
and salting meat, and making
soap out of grease and leached
ashes.
Those were the indoor
activities. Out in the barnyard
and environs, she milked cows,
fed chickens and pigs, picked
fruits and berries, and assisted
in rendering lard. She helped
to sow the fields at planting
time and then helped with the
harvest by raking hay, gleaning the grain, and driving the
horses that pulled the farm
equipment.
In later years when the tractor or separator came to harvest the grain, the farm wife
served a bounteous repast at
noon to the ravenous farm
hands and neighboring farmers who came to help get in the
crops. In between other duties,
she planted and operated the
farm garden, served as a shepherd, and helped nurse the sick
horse or cow. On occasion she
often had to split and carry in
wood for the stove and pump a
few dozen pails of water.
Performing all these jobs
and raising two, three, four or
more babies at the same time
required quite a bit of ingenuity, but mother was up to it.
She had to be. After a little
experience, she found it was no
trick at all to churn the butter,
watch the stove, and nurse a
baby at the same time.
Not until family income
began to permit the hiring of
servants was the housewife
relieved of some of the multitude of duties involved in running a home.

2002: Murder solved, 20 years later
Dec. 3, 2002
A Saline County jury found a
man guilty of the rape and murder of a Welda woman in a Salina
trailer park in 1982. Prosecutors
linked Robert Henry Lackey II
using DNA evidence and witness testimony from 20 years
ago to the murder of Sara Ann
Brecheisen, who was 22 when
her body was found stuffed in
a closet of her mobile home in
Salina. Brecheisen was originally from Welda and attended
Garnett High School.

Area school districts are

the approximate amounts that
will be cut from state aid. Gov.
John Carlin announced in midNovember that there would be a
four percent cut in state aid to
schools to shore up the states

be cut will result in less money

Deck the halls safely for the holidays
TOPEKA – Safe Kids Kansas
reminds parents and caregivers to take a few precautions
when decorating for Christmas,
Hanukkah, Kwanza and other
winter festivities. Holiday decorations, especially candles and
electrical lighting, can be a fire
hazard.
During
2004-2008,
the
National Fire Protection Agency
(NFPA) estimated that decorations, excluding Christmas
trees, were the item first ignited
in an average of 1,170 reported
home structure fires per year.
Half of these fires occurred
because the decoration was too
close to a heat source. Forty-five
percent of these incidents were
started by candles. The top five
days for home candle fires were
Christmas, Christmas Eve, New
Years Day, Halloween and Dec.
23.
Pay attention to labels
when choosing your lighting.
Decorative lighting should
be labeled with the seal of an
independent testing lab, says
Cherie Sage, Safe Kids Kansas.
If its not labeled for outdoor
use, dont use it outdoors.
NFPA said that Christmas
trees, both natural and artificial, were the item first ignited
in an estimated average of 240
report home structure fires per
year during 2005-2009.
If you decorate a tree, Safe
Kids Kansas recommends these
precautions:
Never leave a lit Christmas
tree or other decorative lighting display unattended. Inspect
lights for exposed or frayed
wires, loose connections and
broken sockets. Do not overload
extension cords or outlets and
do not run an electrical cord
under a rug.
Natural Christmas trees
always involve some risk of
fire. To minimize the risk, get
a fresh tree and keep it watered
at all time s or consider an artificial tree. Do not put the tree
within three feet of a fireplace,
space heater, radiator or heat
vent. LED lights burn cooler
than incandescent lights and
pose a lower risk of fire.
Decorate with children in
mind. Do not put ornaments

that have small parts or metal
hooks, or look like food or
candy, on the lower branches
where small children can reach
them. Trim protruding branches at or below a childs eye level,
and keep lights out of reach.
Do not burn Christmas
tree branches, treated wood or
wrapping paper in a home fireplace.
Never leave burning candles
unattended. Dont put candles
on a tree or a natural wreath, or
near curtains or drapes. Keep
matches and lighters locked
out of reach. Battery-operated
flameless candles are an alternative that does not have a fire
risk.
Safe Kids Kansas also offers
these tips to prevent accidental
poisoning:
Keep alcohol (including
baking extracts) out of reach
and do not leave alcoholic
drinks unattended. Dont forget
to store all medications, including those for children, out of
reach.
Color additives used in fireplace fires are a toxic product
and should be stored out of
reach. Artificial snow sprays
are also harmful if inhaled.
Holly berries, mistletoe
berries, poinsettias, amaryllis, boxwood, Christmas rose,
Crown of Thorns, English ivy
and Jerusalem cherry are all
potentially harmful if eaten.
If a child eats any part of a
non-food plant, call the Poison
Control Center at 800-222-1222.

Four gifts for
Christmas
The season of advent is a
time when Christians prepare
their hearts and lives for a worthy celebration of Gods greatest gift, the birth of our Lord
and Savior. The celebration
is centered around the advent
wreath.
The advent wreath was first
used by Protestants in Germany
in the Lutheran church. The
circle of the advent wreath represents Gods never ending love.
The evergreens symbolize the
hope of eternal life. The four
purple or royal blue candles represent the kingship of Christ.
The color purple in the early
church represented royalty.
The four candles also represent
the four Sundays in advent. In
some wreaths the third candle
is rose colored from a practice
in the Middle Ages of using
rose to represent an especially
esteemed person. In this case
it would be Jesus the Christ.
The white candle in the center
is lighted on Christmas Eve or
Christmas Day.
One candle is lit each Sunday
and the ones from the previous
weeks are relighted. The purpose of the candles is to prepare
our hearts for the celebration of
Christs birth.
The first candle is the candle
of anticipation. I remember as
a boy arriving at my grandparents house on Christmas morning. I remember the wonderful
smell of the kitchen, the decorated tree and the beautifully
wrapped gifts. Just the anticipation was almost as much fun
as Christmas itself. In Isaiah
7:14 the prophet anticipates the
coming Christ when he says,
The virgin will be with child
and will give birth to a son, and
will call him Immanuel, that is
God with us.
The second candle is the candle of hope. The Psalmist asks
in Psalm 42:5, Why are you
downcast O my soul? Why so
disturbed within me? Put your
hope in God, for I will yet praise
him, my Savior and my God.
Christmastime can be a time of
hope or hopelessness depending
on our situation. While many
AD
2×2
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
are burdened with too much to
do others are extremely lonely.
If we look far enough into eternity God says we will not be
disappointed, our hopes will be
realized.
The third candle is the candle
of discernment. In Luke 10:3842 Jesus explains to Martha
that her sister Mary has chosen what was better as she sat
at Jesus feet and listened to
his teaching while Martha was
distracted by all of the preparation of the meal. May we make
sure we are doing things for the
love of God through Christ who
enables us to share the fellowship of family and friends and
to give gifts of love.
The fourth candle is the candle of love and joy. Matthew
6:21 says, For where your treasure is , there your heart will be
also. Someone once said, God
cannot put anything in hands
that are tightly clasped around
something. In order to receive
maximum joy from something
we must hold it loosely to allow
God to work. God loves us and
wants to give us good things.
For God so loved the world
that he gave his only begotten
Son. If God was willing to do
that will he not do good things
for us?
On Christmas Eve or
Christmas Day we light all the
candles including the white
Christ candle in the center. The
angel said in Luke 2:10, I bring
you good news of great joy
for all the people. Four gifts,
anticipation, hope, discernment, love and joy. On your
journey through advent may
you find these gifts and have a
blessed Christmas.

Brownback announces team weight loss challenge
TOPEKA – Kansas Governor
Sam Brownback announced
today a team weight loss challenge to encourage Kansans to
get healthier and work together
in reducing the states obesity
rate. The Governors Weight
Loss Challenge will run from
Jan. 15 to May 15, 2013.
Nationwide and in Kansas
– more than 2/3 of adults and
almost 1/3 of children are overweight or obese. My hope is
that the Governors Weight
Loss Challenge will encourage everyone to work together
to make our state healthier,
Governor Brownback. I am
challenging teams of five people
to compete against my team of
five to lose the most percentage
weight, with the ultimate goal
of taking on and maintaining
a healthier lifestyle for years to
come.
The Challenge will award
monetary prizes to teams comprised of people employed by the
State of Kansas, including those
CHS
6×8.5
in the Kansas Legislative and
Judicial branches. Governor
Brownback will recruit four
members of his Cabinet to
make his team of five, which
will be announced in December
when teams can begin signing
up for the competition.
Additionally, the Governor
invites non-state employee
groups like businesses and
municipalities to accept his
weight loss challenge by
recruiting their own teams and
providing incentives for a team
competition to run concurrent
with the Governors Weight
Loss Challenge.
Kansas
Health
and
Environment Secretary Robert
Moser, M.D., who is also the
State Health Officer, said the
obesity rate in Kansas is near
the national average, adding
that obesity among Kansas
adults increased from 15 percent in 1995 to 30.1 percent from
1995 to 2010. Obesity is associated with health conditions and
diseases like congestive heart
failure, diabetes and cancer.
Together, poor nutrition
and physical inactivity is now
considered the number two preventable cause of death, behind
tobacco use, Dr. Moser said.
There are many programs
statewide that directly or indirectly support obesity prevention, and its in our homes and
local communities where the
greatest work to combat obesity
can be achieved. The Governors
Weight Loss Challenge can help
Kansans kick start their exercise routine and new eating habits while taking part in ongoing
state- and local-level fitness and
nutrition programs.
Prizes will be award to the
top two state employee team
that lose the greatest total percentage of weight between Jan.
15 and May 15, 2013. All State
employee teams (not including 1st and 2nd place) that beat
Governor Brownbacks team
will be entered in a drawing for
additional prizes.
I encourage State employees to start teaming up for this
challenge and begin reviewing
the information at our Weight
Loss Challenge website for
ways to lose weight healthfully,
Governor Brownback said. We
all want to find ways to be more
active and eat a more nutritious
diet in order to reduce our risk
for diseases associated with
being overweight and obese.
A web-based tool will be used
to track the progress of each
team in the State of Kansas
weight loss competition. It
also will be available for any
non-state group that joins the
Challenge; however, non-state
groups will not eligible for the
prizes in the Governors Weight
Loss Challenge.
Teams can begin registering
on Monday, Dec. 17, at www.
weightloss.ks.gov.

Nancy was a visitor for a week
before returning to Orlando.
All it takes is for someone
to suggest Lets not cook a big
dinner for Thanksgiving and
others follow suit. This is what
Maynard and Ila Belvoir, Mary
and Bob Scovill, Diane Prasco
and her dad Al Richardson,
and DeDe and Ron McMullen
did! They took a nice drive and
had a delicious dinner together
in Olathe at Ryans Buffet. The
time shared together made for
a great day and memories to
last. The best part, no clean
up! Left overs were missed, but
who needs the extra calorie?
They learned Maynard and Al
have birthdays four months
apart, Als coming first and
both will be 92!
Kieth Luedke, Atwood,
brother of Wayne, Morris and
Stanley who fell breaking his
leg at his home last month is
at the Atwood hospital and it is
hoped he will be able to return
home next month.
Sympathy is expressed to the
Tom Ensley family at the death
of his nephew, John Wynn, 56,
Ft. Scott. Funeral services were
Nov. 26 at Cheney Witt Chapel.
Following cremation burial
will be in Colony Cemetery.
