ACH to mark milestone
Ceremony will recognize final
beam for structure, if the
weather cooperates
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A special ceremony tentatively planned for Wednesday will mark
a significant milestone in construction
of the new Anderson County Hospital.
The Topping Out ceremony will
take place Wednesday with hospital
officials and construction crews as they
place the final beam in the steel struc-
ture that will become a new hospital
and long term care unit. The beam has
been on display near the current long
term care facility, and people connected
to the project have signed their names
on it. Also signing names on the beam
have been kindergarteners and high
school seniors, who will know that a
little bit of their personal influence has
become part of the new hospital, ACH
CEO Denny Hachenberg said.
Its a really neat story with a lot of
significance, Hachenberg said of the
Topping Out ceremony.
The ceremony traces its roots
to Europe before the adoption of
Patrol car held
hostage in city
police debate
Commissioner: Police
have image problem,
tries to delay purchase
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – A Garnett city commissioner said he wants to take
the citys police force to task,
but refused to elaborate on any
complaints that may be lodged
against the force. Instead, he
asked his fellow commissioners
to postpone the purchase of a
new patrol car, which he said
might not be perceived well by
the public.
In the end, however, the
other commissioners said the
patrol car is needed and voted
to buy the car.
Gordon Blackie, who is running unopposed for re-election
in April, said he would like to
organize a meeting between
the commissioners and police
chief Kevin Pekarek to address
a public confidence problem
with the force. He said several
city responsible residents have
complained to him about the
force, but he would not reveal
the nature of the complaints.
He said he was frustrated that
any discussion about
the
police
force would
need to take
place in an
open meeting
and would be
subject
to
Blackie
public scrutiny. He said
he was concerned about the
safety of the officers if specific details about their job was
brought to light.
Then, he turned his attention
to the matter at hand – whether
the city should purchase a new
patrol car. The city postponed
purchasing a new patrol car
last year because of budget
concerns, but city officials said
previously one would be needed
this year.
One thing is sure, buying a
new car isnt going to help (the
polices public image), Blackie
said. We may well need a police
car, but in the interest of doing
whats right, I think we need
to address this other problem,
public confidence.

Christianity. Trees were worshipped
for the shelter and food they provided,
and Scandinavian folklore suggests
man originated from a tree and the
soul of man returned to the trees after
death, giving each tree its own spirit.
According to legend, when a man
wanted to construct a shelter, he would
ask the forest to grant use of a tree for
his home. When the house was completed, the topmost leafy branch of the
tree used would be set atop the roof so
the tree spirit would not be rendered
homeless.

Snow expected to follow ice
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 02-04-2014 / Dane Hicks
On top of lingering ice from a freezing rain event last week the local weather outlook is calling for 5-10 inches of snowfall mostly
falling today and into Wednesday. Cold temps and blustery conditions will follow and the expectation is for todays snowfall to
last a while, as winter reminds us its only February.
Will CHHS grad make it past Hollywood Week?
Television show has
audition rounds for
Richmond native
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Fans of American Idol contestant and Richmond native
Eric Gordon could get their
next chance to see him on the
popular television talent contest this week.
Gordon made it through
the first round of auditions to
advance to the next round in
Hollywood. This week the TV
show will air highlights from
Hollywood
Week
Hollywood

and the pool
Gordon
of about 200
contestants
will be cut to 30 or so.
Gordon is prohibited from
saying whether he makes it
through Hollywood Week, but
he said from his home in Osseo,
Minn., that he is overwhelmed
by the support and encouragement since his audition aired
Jan. 22.
Social media has just blown
up, Gordon said. Its weird to
go out in public and be recognized. Ive never had this happen before.
Gordon grew up in Richmond
and graduated from Central
Heights High School in 2005.
He moved away soon after high
school, bouncing around at a
couple of colleges before deciding to move to Minneapolis at
the suggestion of his brother.
He dove into the Minneapolis
music scene and attended college, where he met his wife,
Rachel.
This isnt Gordons first foray
into television talent shows. He
first auditioned for American
Idol when he was still in high
school, but didnt make the
cut to audition in front of the
judges. He also auditioned for a
gospel television show, Gospel
Dream, and X-Factor.
Gordon said he learned a
lot from his first audition for
American Idol back in Season
2, when he was just 16. He took
the rejection pretty hard, but
recognizes that fear played a
big role in his first audition.
He battled crippling anxiety
and had to learn how to work

Storage shed approved to help recycling program
Shed will help county
save some costs to
transport recycling

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – A new storage
shed soon to be constructed at
the countys landfill is expected
to pay for itself in less than
10 years thanks to the ability
to better organize the countys
recyclable materials.
Anderson
County
Commissioners last week
accepted a bid of $38,089
from Miller Brothers to construct a 40 by 60 foot building. Construction is expected to
start soon.
Scott Garrett, supervisor
for the Anderson County Solid
Waste Department, asked commissioners late last summer
and early fall to consider adding the storage shed. He estimated the building could save
the county $350 to $500 each
month because he could better
organize recyclable material to
maximize the amount vendors
will pay. Some material, like
cardboard, is more valuable
and vendors will waive fuel
costs to pick up a truckload of
cardboard. But other material,
like glass, isnt worth the trip
and the county must pay to
have it removed.
By having a place to store
recyclable material, Garrett
can organize a truckload of
valuable material and save the
county $350 to $500 in transportation costs each month. Under
the current system, the county
has no way to store the material
and must load it all in one truck,
mixing less valuable material
with the stuff that might actually be worth something.
Commissioners postponed
Garretts request until this
year, when they had budgeted
for the expense of a storage
shed.

Peine said he was afraid
postponing the purchase of the

If the beam is icy, it cannot

the event.
Otherwise, weather has not
caused any delay in construction of the new, $26 million hospital facility. Utilities have been

through the fear.
They said at the time I was
ready vocally but I lacked stage
presence. I didnt know what
kind of performer I wanted to
be, he said.
After that, Gordons music
took a gospel turn as he translated his love of Christ into his
career. Eventually, he came to
a crossroads and realized he
could be more effective pursuing a more popular genre. He
said he sees himself as more of
an urban pop or R&B pop artist
now.
By the time Gordon auditioned for this season of
American Idol, more than a
decade had passed since that
first, fearful attempt. This time,
he had more realistic expectations about what it means to
make it in the music business,
especially via television talent
shows.
It doesnt come down to just
vocal ability. Its a business, he
said.
Still, even his knowledge and
experience didnt stop him from
being afraid during the audition. American Idol this year
introduced The Chamber,
a holding cell for contestants
before they face judges Harry
Connick Jr., Jennifer Lopez
and Keith Urban.
I was really scared in
that moment. I thought, I can
translate to the judges that
Im scared, or I can just go out
there, he said.
The audition was a bit of a
blur for Gordon, who said he
didnt remember much about
it so watching his audition on
television made it practically
new for him as well as for the
rest of the viewers.
During the televised audition, the judges praised his
vocal performance but also
commented on his hair and 80sretro-style Members Only
jacket. Gordon said he has
always liked wearing vintage
clothing, including the jacket.
Gordon
joked
about
Connicks fascination with his
Members Only jacket, saying
He kind of has a crush and
thats fine. Out of all the judges,
he seemed to take to me the
most.
After the audition aired,
jacket manufacturer Members
Only sent Gordon one of their
iconic racer jackets. It arrived
last week, he announced on his
Facebook page.
Even before the show
aired, the number of Gordons
Facebook followers on his fan
page doubled. It has continued
to grow since then, and it took
him about a week to get caught
up with the messages and comments.
Ive heard from thousands
of people. Its amazing how they
come out of the woodwork, he
said. I love that feedback.
Because he is restricted
from talking about the results
of the show, Gordon couldnt
say much about what his future
may hold. Before he auditioned,
he and his wife had discussed
moving to Nashville or Los
Angeles to pursue his music
career. Whatever happens on
American Idol this week, the
exposure from the show likely
will help his career.
Its overwhelming. It just
hasnt sunk in yet, he said.

EDITORIAL
Coumo saves Randy $5,000
New York Governor Andrew Coumo just
saved my step brother-in-law about $5,000.
Randy and his wife and college-age son and
a friend were in the midst of planning a weeklong stay in The Big Apple in the spring, after
things thaw out, and they were going to do it up
right.
Weve been planning it since last summer,
Randy told me last week. Ive been there once,
but Jennifer and the kids have never been. We
had the money so we thought this would be the
year.
They had the cash in hand profits made
from selling one of the houses Randy buys
cheap, rehabs and resells down in Springfield,
Mo., after lower interest rates finally started
real estate moving again down there. They
planned to splurge Randy said between airline, hotels, Broadway shows, sightseeing and
other expenses theyd drop nearly $1,000 a day
for a week. But he estimates Coumo probably
saved him $5,000 out of what would have been
a $7,000 trip with the comments he spouted a
week or so ago:
Who are they? Coumo asked, speaking of
Republicans who may run against him in the
upcoming election. Are they these extreme conservatives, who are right-to-life, pro-assault
weapon, antigay, is that who they are? Because if
that is who they are, and if they are the extreme
conservatives, they have no place in the state of
New York. Because that is not who New Yorkers
are.
Obviously, Randy was mistaken. He figured
after the rest of the nation locked arms in a figurative and literal protective circle around the
City of New York after 9/11, the political narcissism that divides New York from the Red States
had at least been put aside for cultural pursuits.
We may not agree with all New Yorkers, Randy
said, but the country still loves New York.
But to be assailed by the states governor in
such a way was more than Randy could swallow.
If Im an extreme conservative, Randy
said, in other words, if I take issue with the
way liberals are stagnating the economy and
running up deficits our kids will have to pay
strangling industries and giving benefits and
citizenship to people who havent earned them,
then Im not wanted there.
Thats fine, he said. Ill just go to Branson.
A guy can live like a king for a week in Branson
for $2,000.
Unfortunately, Randys right. Weve known
for years New Yorkers were liberals (they elected Hiliary Clinton to the U.S. Senate before her
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
carpet bagging suitcases were even unpacked
from Arkansas) but most conservatives were
willing to look past that in the interests of
culture and history and Americana and New
York City wraps that up no matter your politics.
But Cuomos words were clear:
If youre in New York and you believe marriage should be between a man and a woman,
get out;
If youre in New York and you dont believe
a woman should be allowed to kill her fetus, get
out;
If youre in New York and you think a
qualified person should be able to own whatever firearm he wants, get out;
If youre in New York and you think either
you or your local or state-elected government
is better at spending your money instead of a
monolithic, over-arching, probably unconstitutional federal government, get out.
And if you hold those beliefs and youre
planning on vacationing there, youre not welcome. Got it?
Now, nobodys kidding anybody here.
Randys $5,000 isnt a flea on a drop in the
bucket of NYCs economy. Theyll never miss
him. But if there are thousands of Randys
conservative business owners and industrialists and entrepreneurs and managers of charitable foundations and real estate investors, etc.,
across the country who cling as tightly to their
own convictions as Governor Cuomo does to his
own, then it might very well make a difference.
But the worst part is that Cuomos comments injure the personality of New York and
stir bitterness where before there was tacit
dtente. Cuomo didnt just drive further divisions between conservatives and liberals, he
used it to cordon off New York as well.
Ironically, Branson may end up loving him.

Why is it that whenever a surrounding city or town or county gets something new like a jail, a school or a

have to have one too. But these surrounding towns and counties have

Garnett follow suit? Thank you.

Wendy Davis, unplugged and revealed
Perhaps the slogan of the Wendy Davis
campaign should be that behind every successful woman is a good man.
The Texas gubernatorial candidate needs
no introduction. Her filibuster of a bill to ban
abortion in Texas after 20 weeks made her an
instant star for progressives and much of the
media — because few things are as stirring as
a principled stand in favor of near-infanticide.
Her personal Horatio Alger story also was
catnip for the press, thrilled by the trajectory
of the former teen mom who lived in a mobile
home and eventually earned a law degree at
Harvard.
Given her enormous wave of positive coverage, its remarkable that Wendy Davis felt
the need to gild the lily, but so she did.
By 19, her website said, Wendy was a
single mother. Actually, as Wayne Slater
of The Dallas Morning News reported, she
didnt get divorced from her first husband
until age 21. She lived in a mobile home alone
for a few months after the two separated,
before moving in with her mom and then into
her own apartment.
According to her website, she got through
school with the help of academic scholarships and student loans. This is true,
but elides the fact that after she married
Jeff Davis, a successful lawyer 13 years her
senior, he paid for her last two years at
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Texas Christian University, and cashed in his
401(k) and took out a loan to put her through
Harvard.
The marriage eventually hit the rocks. He
tells Slater: It was ironic. I made the last
payment, and it was the next day she left.
When they divorced, Jeff Davis was awarded
parental custody of the kids, rare in Texas.
None of this need necessarily be damning
— in any case, its not unusual for ambitious
politicians to take advantage of supportive
spouses — but it wasnt the story Davis told
about herself.
In a profile last month, the Today show
accompanied her back to the mobile home as
if it were taking Abraham Lincoln back to
his log cabin. Of course, there was no visit
to, let alone mention of, the historic home in
the Mistletoe Heights neighborhood of Fort
Worth (in Slaters words), where she was
living with Jeff Davis by age 24.
When the Abbott campaign naturally
seized on the Dallas Morning News story,
Davis fumed on Twitter, These attacks show
that Greg Abbotts completely out of touch
with the struggles that I faced and so many
Texans face.
To suggest that Abbott is unfamiliar with
struggle is offensively stupid. When he was
a law student in his 20s, he was out jogging
when a tree fell on him, shattering his spine.
He spent months recovering in the hospital
and has been confined to a wheelchair ever
since.
Supporters of Wendy Davis have risen to
her defense on the novel theory that it is sexist to demand that a newly minted feminist
icon avoid misleading people. For them, all
that really matters is her abortion extremism. Everything else is a detail, including her
life story.

Where do legislatures come up with these bills?
You have to wonder, sometimes, where
these ideas come from that become bills
printed up for the Kansas Legislature to consider this election-year session.
Thats part of the wonder of the building,
seeing ideas, good or bad or just surprising,
that show up.
Like the one that gives property owners
the first right of refusal of deer antlers seized
from illegal hunting on their property.
Or the one that would allow podiatrists,
who are, of course, foot doctors, to also treat
problems in the ankle. Which is probably a
little like farming on some health care professionals property.
Or one that would exempt motorcycles
from Turnpike tolls.
And, of course, the bill that would prohibit
re-ticketing of an illegally parked car more
than once each four hours.
If theres one relatively charming thing
about the Kansas Legislature, it may be that
its members come up with ideas foror
maybe to end a grocery store aisle conversation with a constituent agree to introduce
some relatively novel legislation.
Now, of course, there are serious bills
introduced, lawmakers have to approve a
budget and deal with criminal activities and
protect the children and the poor and such,
but then, there are those bills that legislators
who are paid $88.66 per day introduce.
But part of the fun of the Legislaturefor
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
those who arent all fussy about lawmakers
just dealing with earth-moving ideas, cutting
taxes, paring expenditures and guaranteeing
enough rain for the cropsare those little
bills that probably arent going anywhere but
are fun to listen to for a little while.
And remember that most folks who dont
live in the Statehouse have little reason to
know details about the wide range of issues
that are brought to the Statehouse for decision, or at least consideration. Why would a
downtown legislator know about agricultural
fence law, or a rural legislator have much
background about urban zoning technicalities?
The melting pot of backgrounds and specialties, the regional differences, the level
of educationremember, you dont quiz out
for a seat in the Legislature, you just get
electedprobably means on most issues that
common sense prevails…as long as it isnt a
campaign contribution killer.
Somewhere, in even the bills that sound a
little flaky, theres an attempt to accomplish
something.
If illegal hunters dont get to keep the deer
antlers, maybe theyll make sure they have
legal permission to hunt on some farmers
land, or maybe its not quite right for an illegal parker to get a new ticket based on how
fast parking police can circle the block and
discover…that car is still there.
Still wondering about the toll-free Turnpike
for motorcyclists, but were getting an idea
of why no one has come up with a bill that
would authorize distinctive license plates for
members of the Kansas Legislature…

to the Superbowl too. This isnt the
Superbowl. Its the Bowl Bowl.
Hey Review, awesome picture of the
Central Heights band rocking out.
Thanks for noticing us.
Yes, Ive called and suggested this
before but since nothings happened I
thought Id drop a little hint again. In
the town where we used to live before
coming to Garnett the town clubs like
the Kiwanis and the Rotary and the
Historical Society and so on would
get together once a year and have a
reception as a recruiting event for
new members. We did ours at a restaurant on a Saturday morning and
had free donuts and had the school
band play and it was a kind of thing
people looked forward to each year
and it was a way for our town clubs to
educate people about the things they
do and the things they stand for and
yes, they managed to even recruit
a few new members. People were
always moving in and out of town
just like they are in Garnett and they
dont have any idea whos involved
in the clubs they may have used to
have been a part of and they cant get
involved until they do. Just my two
cents worth Garnett.
To the person concerned about the
deer carcasses poisoning the drinking
water in Garnett, you need to remember that the water treatment plant in
Garnett mixes all kinds of chemicals
in the water to purify it, so theres
not any danger of being poisoned by
those rotting carcasses unless you
drink untreated creekwater.
To the person trying to move the
sofa at the house on Fourth Street
this afternoon. I would have stopped
to help you, but Im Catholic and I
wouldnt have wanted to block anybodys driveway with my car.
The person who thinks the 14 deer
carcasses in the river makes our
water tastes bad, you need to go check
out the 200 geese on the south lake.
Hello, I wanted to inform The
Anderson County Review and the
community at large that I absolutely enjoy Henry Roeckers columns
in the newspaper. His stories about
his excavations and other history
are insightful and educational and
I believe, quite interesting. I think
hes the best columnist in your paper.
Thank you.
I hope the city is keeping an eye on the
dog west of the Catholic church parking lot locked in that chicken coop.
He only has water when it thaws and
seldom has food.

Have you found the one?
Wools, Day engaged
In John 1:45 we read, Philip
found Nathanael and told him,
We have found the one Moses
wrote about in the law, and
about whom the prophets also
wrote– Jesus of Nazareth, the
son of Joseph. It is interesting to note that Philip did
not say we have seen the one.
To Philip this was more than
eye contact. To have found
would mean that there was
an expectation that this one
would come.
In the Old Testament we
find many scriptures relating
to the coming Messiah. In
Isaiah 7:14 we read, Therefore
the Lord himself will give you
a sign: The virgin will be
with child and will give birth
to a son and will call him
Immanuel.
In Isaiah 9:6 we read , For
to us a child is born, to us a
son is given and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty
God, Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.

Devotional
by David Bilderback
Philip had good reason to be
looking for the Messiah. The
question I have is what did
Philip find that so many other
people failed to find. Philip
found a man who could feed
5,000 with five small barley
loaves and two small fish. He
found a man who could calm
the sea and walk on water.
He found a man who could
restore sight to the blind
and raise the dead. In John
1:45 Philip found the one that
Moses and the prophets wrote
about–Jesus of Nazareth.
When Jesus came and gave
his life on that cross he provided a way for man to have
direct communion with God.
One of the best examples of
this is found in Job 9:32-35
where Job has to face God
and he says, He (God) is not
a man like me that I might
answer him, that we might
confront each other in court.
If only there were someone
to arbitrate between us, to lay
his hand upon us both, someone to remove Gods rod from
me, so that his terror would
frighten me no more. Then I
would speak up without fear
of him, But as it now stands
with me, I cannot.
Job asks for an arbitrator
or mediator to be between him
and God. In 1st Timothy 2:5
we read, For there is one God
and one mediator between
God and man, the man Christ
Jesus.
In Matthew 7:7-8 Jesus
gives us a simple pattern to
find him. Ask and it will be
given to you; seek and you
will find; knock and the door
will be opened to you. When
you open the door you will
find the Savior himself waiting for you.

Dynamite 4-H Club to take part in fundraiser
The Dynamite 4-H club met
on January 19, 2014, under the

Secretary, Miranda Akes, took
roll call by asking each member to state what they did over
Christmas break.
Thirteen

two leaders were in attendance.
After roll call the minutes of the
December 15th meeting were
read. The President approved
the minutes with no corrections
or additions.
The meeting business started
with reports from club officers
and leaders. Due to the absence
of the Treasurer, President
Nickel gave an update on the
monthly income and expenses.
All balances were recorded and
approved. Club leader, Tanya

item Tanya discussed was fair
ads. Each club member will
need to take a fair ad to sale.
All ads are due back on March
10, 2014. Tanya reminded the
group about County Club Days
on February 19th. All members who plan to participate
in a County Club Day event
must sign-up by February 3rd.
The final business item was
about the February and April
club meeting dates. The group
decided to change next months
meeting date to February 9th
and the April meeting will be on
the 27th.
At the conclusion of
the meeting business, the
President passed the gavel to
Vice-President, Austin Ewert
for the presentation of talks.
Matheu Egidy gave a demonstration talk on how to make a
blueberry cheesecake. Abbie
Weisner gave a talk about her
Chihuahua/Terrier mix dog
named Bella. After the talks,
the gavel was passed back to
the President. The recreation
leader, Claire Hasty, lead the
group in a game of charades.
After recreation was completed, Samantha announced the
next meeting will be held on
February 9, 2014, at the Greeley
Fire Station.
After the announcement, the
President asked for a motion to
adjourn. Austin Akes made the
motion and it was seconded by
Morgan Egidy. The motion was
taken to a vote and approved.
The meeting was adjourned by
reciting the 4-H pledge. After
the meeting the group enjoyed

LOCAL
State senator gives first legislative update of 2014 session
K-12 Funding, State
Sovereignty, & Corporate
Farming
Several news sources have
claimed the State legislature
has made recent cuts (some go
as far to say, drastic cuts) in
K-12 funding. They couldnt
be more wrong. The legislature for the past three years
has not cut K-12 state funding.
The legislative cuts were made
in 2009 under Governor Mark
Parkinsons watch. There have
been increases since the cuts
made in 2009-2010. However,
Legislative
Update
by Sen. Caryn Tyson
District 12
the increases are not enough
to offset the cuts made prior to
the 2010 election cycle.
K-12 funding comes from
state, federal, and local sourc-
es. According to the Kansas
Department of Education
(KSDE) total expenditures
were $12,776 per-pupil for the
2012-2013 school year. If you
have internet access, school
expenditures can be found
at
http://www.ksde.org/
Agency/FiscalandAdministra
tiveServices/SchoolFinance/
ReportsandPublications.aspx.
You may also contact me or the
KSDE to get copies of information on school funding and
expenditures.
As you know, myself and
many legislators have been
attempting to fend-off the
over-reach of the Federal
Government. Last week in the
Natural Resources Committee,
we heard conferees testify in
support of a bill that would
give Kansas the sole authority
to manage the population and
habitats of the Lesser Prairie
Chicken.
The bill would
restrict any federal regulations adding the Lesser Prairie
Chicken to the endangered species list. The bill is a positive
step in protecting our state sov-
ereignty.
Last year there was an effort
to allow foreign-owned agriculture mega-corporations to
operate in Kansas. Current law
restricts these large operations
from existing in Kansas unless
they have county approval. The
word in Topeka is that the bill
will not be worked this year.
Instead of letting the issue be
put off until 2015, we need to
strengthen the law to support
county approval. The county
residents should decide if they
would want a facility with over
10,000 head in their county.
Please contact me with
any questions or comments
via phone 785.296.6838; email
Caryn.Tyson@senate.ks.gov;
or by mail, at Kansas State
Capitol, 300 SW 10th St.,
Topeka, KS 66612.
It is an honor and a privilege
to serve as your 12th District
State Senator.
Caryn Tyson represents
District 12, which includes
Anderson County.
Jones reports on first house vote, activities With regret, as of January 1, 2014
Normally the second week
of session is when things really
start to get busy, but this year
it was cut short with Martin
Luther King Jr. Day on Monday,
the mid-week funeral of a colleagues spouse (Rep. Marvin
Kleebs wife Nancy), and the
start of the State GOP convention in Wichita on Friday. Here
is a quick note on what took
place.
First House Vote HB 2303
We had our first House
vote in 2014. The first bill to
be debated on the House floor
this session was a carry-over
Conference Committee Report
(CCR) from last session.
The bill, HB 2303, had passed
both the House and Senate
last year, but since it passed in
slightly different forms, it was
placed in a conference committee so the differences could
be reconciled between the two
chambers. The Senate passed
the CCR prior to the end of last
session, but, due to timing, the
House didnt take a vote on the
CCR until last week. The CCR
passed by a vote of 109-11 and
now goes to the Governor for
his consideration.
HB 2303 increases the reinstatement fees for driving under
the influence convictions. The
fees for test failure convictions
Legislative
Update
by Rep. Kevin Jones
District 5
would double, maxing out at
$800, while fees for test refusal
convictions would be raised by
50 percent, to a maximum of
$1,500.
A portion of the revenue
generated by these fees goes
to the Kansas Department of
Health and Environment, who
provides breath alcohol testing
equipment, frequently called
breathalyzers, to most law
enforcement agencies across the
state. Each machine costs about
$6,000 and lasts 5-7 years. It is
important for all law enforcement agencies in Kansas to
have equipment that is properly
working and is standardized.
Some of the current machines
are getting old and need to be
replaced. As I mentioned during floor debate, the increased
fees allow those who need to
use the machines (persons who
choose to consume alcohol and
then get behind the wheel of
their vehicle) to pay for them so
other taxpayers dont have to.
Additionally, the bill designates 33 percent of the revenue
from the fees to provide raises
for non-judicial court employees (clerks, stenographers, etc.
not judges). These employees
are valuable to the judiciary
and havent had a raise for
several years. Again, since the
revenue comes from fees, the
state budget is not impacted
and no additional appropriation is needed.
Notable Statistic
The Kansas Department of
Labor (KDOL) reported the
December seasonally adjusted
unemployment rate was 4.9 percent, down from 5.1 percent in
November and 5.5 percent in
December 2012.
The states unemployment
rate continued its descent,
dropping below 5 percent for
the first time since 2008, said
Lana Gordon, Secretary of
Labor. For the second consecutive year, Kansas saw over the
year growth of more than 10,000
jobs. This is all good news for
Kansans.
District Activities
On February 8 I will be at
Holy Trinity in Paola for the
Miami County Legislative
Breakfast starting at 7 a.m.

Koch breaks 100-wins in a season
The AC Bulldogs were again
off this weekend due to weather, this is the second time this
year that the AC wrestling team
has had a tournament cancelled
because of weather. Now is the
time to do a little house cleaning and report on a few past
events.
On January 16th the
Bulldogs were at Osawatomie
to dual them and Burlington.
The Dogs came out on the losing end of both duals but were
very competitive in both, losing to Burlington 57-24 and to
Osawatomie 42-41. Winning
both matches that night were
Caleb Andregg, Blade Marmon,
Storm Pracht, and Lee Koch.
The Dogs had a few open weight
classes missing Caleb Belshe,
Dallas Cox, and Shiloh Sutton
due to injury and illness.
On January 17th and 18th
the AC team traveled to the 2Day Wabunsee Invitational in
Alama finishing 10th with 79.5
team points out of 20 teams.
Once again the team had quite
a few holes in the line-up
because of illness and injury
but wrestled extremely well all
weekend. Finishing in the top
spot and remaining undefeated
on the year was Lee Koch who
defeated Wright of Atwood in
the finals with a pin in the first
period. Blade Marmon, wrestling at 113lbs, finished second
at the tournament losing in the
finals but going 3-1 on the weekend. Storm Pracht finished
fourth wrestling at 145lbs, going
3-2 on the weekend.
Wrestling at the Parsons
Dual Tournament on the 24th
of January, the Dogs went
3-2 as a team placing fourth
out of ten teams. The Dogs
defeated Diamond (Mo) 6023, Central Heights 58-18, and
Cherryvale 48-32. The Dogs lost
to Louisburg 30-52 in the semifinal match before finally losing
to Independence 42-36 in the 3rd
and 4th place dual. Going 5-0 on
the weekend were Lee Koch and
Dallas Cox with Storm Pracht,
Blade Marmon, and Keith Sears
all going 4-1. Preston Cornett,
Kyle Lamb, and Tyler Belshe
were all 3-2 as well.
With this opportunity to
catch-up on some stats Coach
Brown did some research on
AC Wrestlers and found that
Lee Koch broke the 100 win in a
season mark at the Burlington
Tournament earlier this year
with his victory over Kody
Smallwood of Mission Valley
in the finals. Lee is 70-7 over the
last two years and is currently
27-0 in his Sr. campaign. Several
Bulldogs have great records
heading into the home stretch
this February. Blade Marmon,
So. Wrestling at 113lbs, is 226 on the year, Sr. Dallas Cox,
wrestling at 170lbs, is 19-4, and
Sr. Storm Pracht, wrestling at
145lbs, is 21-8.
The next wrestling meet is
the Silver Lake Invitational this
coming weekend, and then a
two week break before the big
showdown in Burlington for
Regionals.
Viking boys hang on for 62-59 victory
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Central Heights nearly let
a 9 point fourth quarter lead
slip away before toughing out a
hard fought 62-59 win over rival
West Franklin.
The Vikings and Falcons
played a back and forth first
quarter resulting in a tie at 12
heading into the second quarter. Central Heights would step
it up offensively in the second
as they put 20 points up on the
scoreboard to open up a 32-24
lead at intermission.
Central Heights kept the
Falcons at arms length in the
third period as they pushed
their lead out another point.
The Vikings outscored the
Falcons 12-11 in the period. As a
lot of rivalries do, this game got
much more interesting in the
fourth quarter. West Franklin
kept chipping away at the lead
but came up just short despite
outscoring Central Heights 2418 in the final quarter.
Central Heights coach Rusty
Cannady said, It was a great
Franklin County rival game.
We were fortunate to come out
with the win.
Coach Spencer does a great
job with his kids. They never
quit and played hard until the
buzzer sounds. I have a lot
of respect for his program,
Cannady stated.
The Vikings relied on the
inside presence of Jordan
Horstick and Tanner Erhart as
they combined for 40 points.
Offensively we kept feeding
the ball inside. Our post players combined for 57 of our 62
points, Cannady said. Great
win for our kids.
Erhart led the way with 25
points and Horstick added 15
points.

AC Girls finish 5th in tournament
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Anderson County girls
traveled to Wellsville this
week to compete in the Top
Gun Tournament. In the first
round game, the seventh seeded Bulldogs squared off with
the number two seed Piper.
Piper imposed their will
early on as they outscored the
Bulldogs 18-11 in the first quarter. The backbreaker was a 3
pointer at the buzzer for Piper.
Piper rode that momentum to
open up a 30-15 at halftime.
The girls played a much
more competitive second half,
but it wasnt nearly enough to
cut into the 15 point halftime
cushion that Piper had. Piper
had a slim 15-13 advantage in
the third quarter. The Bulldogs
fought hard in the fourth, but
it wasnt nearly enough as they
lost 55-41.
Samantha McCullough led
all scorers with 24 points.
In the second round game,
the Bulldogs squared off
against sixth seeded St. Marys.
The ACHS girls used a strong
first and third quarter to cruise
to a 58-39 victory.
The Bulldogs jumped up
early on St. Marys and led 13-5
after the first quarter. The two
teams played back and forth in
the second quarter as they each
scored 14 points to make the
score 27-19 heading into intermission.
The AC girls came out of
the locker room ready to play.
They put 23 points on the board
and held St. Marys to 14. With
the score 50-33 heading into the
fourth quarter, the Bulldogs
slowed the pace down. They
only scored 8 points, but held
St. Marys to just 6 in the final
period.
Once again, McCullough led
the way with 16 points for the
Bulldogs. Reagan Jirak was
the only other player in double
figures with 12 points.
In the fifth place game,
ACHS met up with fifth seeded
Wellsville. Once again it was
a decisive third quarter that
helped pace the way to a 47-39
victory. The AC girls led 13-8
after the first quarter and 26-23
at halftime.
The game turned in the
third quarter as Wellsville was
only able to muster 3 points.
The Bulldogs tallied 11 more
to extend their lead to 37-26
heading into the fourth quarter. The girls held steady in the
fourth as Wellsville did chip
away slightly at the lead, but
it was much too little as they
outscored AC only 13-10.
McCullough led the way
with 24 points, which include
her hitting 16 of 20 free throws
for the game. Paige Scheckel
chipped in with 12 points.

Viking girls
struggle
offensively in
loss to WF
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Central Heights and West
Franklin were in a real dogfight until West Franklin finally seized control in the fourth
quarter for a hard fought 37-27
victory.
Despite their offensive struggles in the game, the Vikings
got off to a good start in the first
quarter as the West Franklin
Falcons led just 11-10 after the
first quarter. Both teams struggled in the second period to put
the ball in the hole as each team
scored just 6 points to keep the
game close, heading into halftime 17-16.
Coming out of the locker
room, both teams knew if they
could put together a small run
it just may be enough to win the
game. Once again, they fought
each other hard as they each
scored 9 in the third quarter to
put the Vikings down just 26-25
heading into the fourth quarter.
Finally the Falcons were
able to get that little spurt they
were waiting on. They clamped
down defensively, holding the
Vikings to just two fourth quarter points as they pulled away
slightly by adding 11 of their
own.

What the

will be
discussed
The Garnett Public Library
will hold a book discussion on
Wednesday, February 26th at
7 p.m. This months book is
What the Cat Saw by Carolyn
Hart. Leading our discussion
will be Paulabeth Henderson.
National bestselling author
Carolyn Hart has written an
original new novel about a
woman with a curious ability
that drops her headfirst into a
world of intrigue and murder.
Ever since the death of her
fianc, Nela Farley has found
herself plagued by a sixth
sense: she understands the
thoughts of cats when she looks
into their eyes. Nela knows
that what shes experiencing is
completely irrational and tries
to convince herself that she is
simply transferring her own
thoughts that she doesnt want
to face.
The books are available for
checkout at the library. The
discussions are held the fourth
Wednesday of each month at 7
p.m. in the Archer Room at the
library. Notification is posted
in case of cancellation.
Century Farm program
seeks farm, ranch entries Brilliant add-on sales idea
MANHATTAN – Tradition
and heritage is a big part of
what makes agriculture such
an attractive way of life for so
many Kansans. The lifeblood
of our existence, the farms and
ranches in Kansas, provide food,
fuel and fiber for the world.
The history of these farms
and ranches is rich, with many
stories to tell. In that spirit,
Kansas Farm Bureau, the
states leading agriculture advocacy organization, is launching
the fifteenth year of its program for the new millennium
to honor those family farms
that have passed down this heritage for more than a century.
The Kansas Farm Bureau
Century Farm program
will recognize family farms
whose current owner/operator is related to the owner/
operator of the farm in 1914 or
before. Qualifying farmers will
receive a farm sign designating Century Farm status and
recognition from Kansas Farm
Bureau.
As farmers and ranchers,
%

Did you know junk mail
mass mailings have as little as
a 2% response rate with customers?
we are proud of our legacy and
heritage, said Steve Baccus,
Kansas Farm Bureau president.
The Century Farm program
will help others better appreciate the strong family ties and
tradition that we hold so dear.
During the first fourteen
years of the Century Farm
Program, more than 2,200 family farms qualified for the Farm
Bureau Century Farm designation.
The deadline for consideration is May 15, 2014. Complete
details for qualification and an
application can be obtained at
county Farm Bureau offices
across Kansas or on the KFB
web site, http://www.kfb.org/

I was in a Best Buy store
lately and I took note of the
gauntlet they run you through
in order to get to the register
to pay for your purchase. It
was brilliant!
If youve been to a Best
Buy lately you know what I
mean. Before you can pay for
your item you have to twist
through this planned route
to the register. The route is
lined with last-ditch impulse
purchases: batteries, etc.,
capped off by… wait for it…
an entire rack of candy and
snack foods.
Brilliant!
Now most people in business have known for years
that add-on sales work great
near the counter or cash regis-
ter. In fact its to the point that
a lot of convenience stores
have adopted a policy of having nothing on the counters at
all – but placing impulse buy
racks right behind the customer at the register – because
the counters can get too cluttered.

Best Buy took it a step further – they actually control
the route in which customers move to the register. That
way, they dont have to clutter
up their sales positions but
can still walk customers past
a whole host of possible purchases – even candy, for cryin
out loud!
If your business does retail
from a counter register in
some fashion, Ill bet theres
something you can use from
that idea. Like I said, its brilliant!

HISTORY
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 4, 2014
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-29-2010 / Photo Submitted
This historic photo shows Idyle Wild Park when it was a resort with cabins in the 1920s. The center
island provided a place for activities as well. The property is now a private home, and owners Richard
and Judy Brummel will talk about it Feb. 9 at the Richmond Museum.
Idyle Wild topic at Richmond Museum
The Richmond Community
Museum invites the public to hear Richard and Judy
Brummel tell the history and
story of Idyle Wild, the former resort and recreation
area where they now live. The
Museums annual meeting will
be Sunday, February 9, 7 p.m.
at the Museum which is the former lumberyard on Richmonds
main street.
The Brummels purchased
the Idyle Wild property at the
bottom of Pottawatomie Hill in
1977 and have rebuilt the lake
that was there for years, worked
at clearing the land, later built a
house and now enjoy sharing
the story with visitors.
Starting in the 1920s and
until 1956 when the present U.
S. Hiway 59 was built, Idyle Wild
was the location of a gas station
and tavern with a dance hall
near by. In earlier years cabins
were available for rent and the
place was a popular get-away.
The Museum will open at 6
p.m. for visitors to see the more
than 1,000 artifacts and many
albums of photos and news sto-
ries from and about Richmond
area residents.
Call Dennis Peters at (785) 8356170 or Pat Vining at 835-6598 if
you have questions or have anything from the Richmond area
you would like to donate or loan
to the Museum.
The Richmond Community
Museum is a 501(c)(3) organization which opened in June
2008 and is open on weekend
afternoons through the summer months and anytime on
request. It operates wholly on
donations.
It doesnt take a fire to burn a child
Topeka — During National Burn
Awareness Week (February 28), Safe Kids Kansas reminds
parents and caregivers that fire
is just one cause of burn injuries — children can also be seriously injured by hot foods and
beverages, heating appliances,
hot pots and pans, electrical
currents and chemicals.
Hot water scalds are the leading cause of burns to young children and can be caused by hot
liquids or steam. Hot tap water
accounts for nearly 1 in 4 of all
scald burns among children and
is associated with more deaths
and hospitalizations than any
other hot liquid burns. Young
children are particularly at risk
because they cannot recognize
heat-related hazards quickly
enough to react appropriately. Childrens skin is thinner than adults and burns at
lower temperatures and more
deeply, says Cherie Sage, Safe
Kids Kansas. A child exposed
to 140-degree Fahrenheit liquid
for five seconds will sustain a
third-degree burn.
Safe Kids Kansas urges caregivers to:
Check to Make Sure the
Water Temperature Is Just
Right
Set your hot water heater to
120 degrees Fahrenheit. Always
check bath and sink water with
your wrist or elbow before placing your child in it.
Blow Out Candles and Store
Matches Out of Reach
Playing with matches and
lighters is one of the leading
causes of fire deaths to young
children. Keep these items
locked up out of sight and out
of reach. Discuss good fires and
bad fires and how matches and
lighters are to be used responsibly. Explain these items are
not toys. Keep burning candles
safely out of reach of children.
Prevent spills
Cook with pots and pans on
back burners and turn handles
away from the front. Dont place
containers of hot food or liquid
near the edge of a counter or
table and remove tablecloths
so children dont accidentally
pull hot items down onto themselves.
Use the Back Burner and
Oven Mitts
Make the stove area a kidfree zone (3 feet is a good distance). Never leave your child
alone in the kitchen. Dont hold
children while cooking or while
carrying hot foods and beverages.
Be Careful With the
Microwave
Taste cooked foods and heated liquids to make sure theyre
not too hot for children. Never
microwave a babys bottle; heat
bottles with warm water and
test them before feeding your
child. Understand that drinks
and food heated in a microwave
may be much hotter than their
containers.
Keep Flammable Materials
Away From Space Heaters
Remember to keep space
heaters at least three feet away
from anything that can burn.
Make sure you turn them off
when you leave the room.
Childproof Your Electrical
Outlets and Appliances
Tie up electrical cords, especially cords connected to heating appliances such as coffee
pots, curling irons and deep fryers. Make sure electrical cords
cant be pulled or snagged into
a bathtub or sink. Dont leave
a hot iron sitting on an ironing
board unattended.
Install Smoke Alarms and
Carbon Monoxide Alarms
You need a smoke alarm on
each level of your home and in
every sleeping area. Test your
smoke alarms once a month
and replace the batteries once
a year (except for lithium batteries that are longer lasting;
refer to manufacturers instructions). A working smoke alarm
reduces the risk of dying in a
fire by about 50 percent.
Actively supervise
Simply being in the same
room with a child is not necessarily supervising. Safety
precautions are important, but
there is no substitute for giving
children your full attention.
What if my child gets
burned?
If a child is burned, the
burned area should be placed
in, or flushed with, cool water.
Keep the burned area in the
cool water for 10 to 15 minutes. Never use ice, ointments
or butter. If the burn is severe,
immediately seek emergency
assistance.

safekids.org

This scale was made between the 1870s and 1890s and identified as a Buffalo Hide Weighing
Scale.
Scale weighs in on history
What in the world is this
old contraption? Does anyone want to take a guess? I
was told what it is, when it
was given to me over 25 years
ago by my father-in-law
T.W.Roberts (now deceased)
and thru my research efforts.
It is an 1870s-1890s Early
Frontier BUFFALO HIDE
WEIGHING SCALE.
These scales were used
primarily by buyers of buffalo hides to weigh the hides
and thus being able to tally
up the price. Its very likely
these scales were purchased
at trading posts and used out
on the frontier for weighing
numerous items when a standard scale was not available,
other animal pelts, meat,
grain sacks or anything else

There are two sides to this
scale. One side weighs hides
weighing from 0-40 pounds
and the other side 20-350
pounds. This scale was very
accurate. If you hang the
scale using the smaller ring
, the smaller hook is used for
weighing 0-40 pounds and if
you hang the scale using the
larger ring, the large hook
hangs down for weighing 20350 pounds. The brass scale
plate is held in place using a
curved metal plate and two
screws.
This scale has its very own
little place in history. It is a
known fact that it traveled
from Chadron,Nebraska to
Missouri and then back to
Anderson County, Kansas
by covered wagon in the
very early 1900s. The very
same covered wagon that my
Father-in-law T.W.Roberts at
the age of 5 came to Kansas
in.
This scale is well over 100
years old.

2013 Kansas Bankers Association
Conservation Award Winners
3B
The 2013 Kansas Bankers Association Conservation award for Anderson County will be presented at a
special banquet Wednesday, Feb. 5, 2014, at Anderson County High School in Garnett. The annual banquet is
sponored by area banks in honor of farm conservation practices.
Winners: Tom Collins, Water Quality; Richard/Tom/Lois Miller, Grassland Award;
Greg/Brad/Garland Miller, Conservation Award
Collins family takes creative approach to water woes
The Collins family always
needed to find creative solutions to water issues at a farm
near the Emerald Catholic
Church in northwest Anderson
County.
When Tom Collins father
bought the land in the early
1950s, there wasnt an easy way
to provide water to the family
home. A well wasnt possible,
and a rural water system wasnt
yet available in the area. Tom
Collins remembers facing the
problem with his father, and
they came up with an unusual
solution. His father built a pond
on top of a hill, and fenced it
in so livestock couldnt walk
around in the water. A series
of pipes drew water from the
pond to the house at the bottom of the hill, as well as to
hydrants near barns on the
property. Tom Collins mother,
an Army nurse, insisted on a
sanitation system that included
a sand pit to help filter impurities, a cistern to cool the water
and a chlorinator with a pump
to bring clean water into the
home.
Although Tom Collins and
his wife live in a different house
on the property now, that original water line still functions
and Collins uses it for his own
water system at the farm. Like
his father, he continues to use
a unique approach to improve
water quality on the farm, and
like his father, he has earned
recognition for the work. His
efforts have earned a Water
Quality Award for conservation for 2013 from the Kansas
Bankers Association. The
award will be presented Feb.
5 at Anderson County High
School in Garnett.
Collins, who works from
home but sometimes has to travel, created a system that would
ease chores like feeding and
watering 50 head of beef cattle
while he is away. Using a series
of ponds and hydrants, Collins
installed automatic watering
centers along fence rows with
gravity sensors to control how
much water is delivered. Water
access is offered at each pasture, and the ponds are fenced
to keep cows from dirtying the
water. The fence keeps ponds

herd during times of drought
or cool weather. Having a constant supply of clean water is
better for the animals, too.
The initial cost is there, but
the ease of management is so
necessary in my situation when
you cant be with the herd all
the time, Just the improvement in water quality for the
animals is worth it. If you can
burden the initial costs, I dont
think anybody would ever
regret doing this.
Collins received help from the
Anderson County Conservation
District and thanked them for
helping him figure out how to
make the system work.
Collins owns 120 acres of land
that was part of his parents
estate. He and his wife, Ann,
moved from Nebraska to the
property south of the Emerald
church in 1998. Collins, who
traveled extensively with the
Marine Corps and visited six
continents and numerous countries, works from home doing
electrical and combustion con-
trol consulting and service. His
wife taught special education
for 20 years and now is elementary school principal at Central
Heights.
The couple has a daughter,
Erin Collins, who graduated
from the University of Missouri
and Rolla and now is a plant
manager in the oil and natural
gas industry.
Collins gives his late father
much of the credit for his water
system improvements. He said
he feels as if he is simply continuing the work his father
started after returning home
from World War II, and he continues to be impressed by his
fathers ingenuity in providing water to the farm when it
seemed impossible.
My little bit of attitude is
nothing compared to his, he
said.
Although the property now
has access to rural water,
Collins continues to look for
unique ways to improve water
at the property.
Ann and Tom Collins received a Water Quality Award.
from deteriorating and filling
in with mud. Collins uses two
ponds, including his fathers
original hilltop pond, but he is
building a third.
With an isolated watering
point, they come to the same
spot and you have an excellent
place to feed, provide salt minerals and inspect the animals,
Collins said. In winter, its a
blessing because you dont have
to chop ice.
Collins installed an underground concrete holding tank
that helps insulate the water,
and a valve allows water to
trickle through so the line
doesnt freeze during cold temperatures. Thats been especially helpful this winter, which
has brought numerous nights
with temperatures at or below
zero degrees.
The extensive water improvements came with a price, of
course, but will save time and
money over time as well as provide more versatility. Collins
will have to do less maintenance to the ponds, and its easier to provide water to the cow
gem farm

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 4, 2014
Three generations continue conservation tradition
Three generations of Millers
continue to improve the grassland thanks to the work of a
farming family that stretches
even further back in history.
Richard Miller said his grandfather started farming and the
tradition continues today as he
farms with his mother and son
on about 700 acres about four
miles southwest of Garnett. His
parents purchased their farm in
1960, and Richard and his wife,
Dorothy, bought theirs in 1964.
Their son, Tom Miller, bought
one of their farms several years
ago. Together, they continue to
find ways to improve the land.
Conserving the land for
future generations is a familiar
idea, but its not a new idea,
Richard Miller said. It doesnt
take a farmer long before he
can see the need to take care of
the land.
Its not hard to see the soil
washing away. We farmers recognized a long time ago that
if we dont do something to
prevent the soil from washing
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-29-2010 / Photo Submitted
Richard and Dorothy Miller received the Grassland Conservation Award.
away, were not going to have
any dirt left, Miller said. Just
being on the land and seeing
what happens to the soil, its
pretty obvious you have to do
something.
His father began initial conservation efforts on the farms,
building terraces and farms at
a time when technology to do
such things was limited. Their
land featured a large ditch running through the middle of it,
so Richards father had to fill in
the ditch and built a terrace in
its place.
Since then, the family has
taken advantage of various programs and improvements that
will allow them to properly care
for the land. Most of the 700
acres is pasture; about 250 is
farm ground. All of the farm
ground has been in CRP for
20 years, and Miller recently
signed up for another decade in
the CRP program. Miller rents
the land and previously used a
minimal tilling approach, but
hes shifting to a no-till man-
agement system. He said many
farmers did not believe notill would work, but attitudes
have changed as farmers have
seen the benefits of a no-till
approach.
Last year, the family cleared
overgrowth around the property to improve the grassland.
Their efforts have earned
a Grassland Award from the
Kansas Bankers Association.
The award will be presented
Feb. 5 at Anderson County High
School in Garnett.
Miller, who has worked in
the agriculture business managing elevators, saw the difference good conservation practices can make.
All the successful farmers are very concerned about
conservation, he said. You
see pretty quick the successful farmers are taking care of
their land and resources. The
ones that arent, you can tell.
Luckily there arent many of
them anymore.
Planting calendar can be useful when starting vegetable seeds indoors
MANHATTAN With daylight
lasting a bit longer day by day,
avid gardeners are hankering
to plant. One way to satisfy
that wish is to start vegetable
seeds indoors, according to
Ward Upham at Kansas State
University.
If you start vegetable plants
indoors, it is often helpful to list
seeding dates on a calendar so
that plants are ready for transplanting at the proper time,
said Upham, who is director
of the K-State Research and
Extension Rapid Response
Center in the horticulture, forestry and recreation resources
department. To do this, gardeners should choose their
transplant date and count back
the number of weeks necessary to grow their own transplants.
For example in Kansas, cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower
are usually transplanted in
late March to early April. It
takes eight weeks from seeding
to transplant size, he said, so
those plants should be seeded
in early February.
Information on how many
weeks it takes to grow transplants is available in a Jan. 8 KState newsletter at Horticulture
2013 Newsletter.
Upham provided a list of
common vegetables grown for
transplants and a recommended date for seeding, adding that
the dates are Saturdays because
thats when many homeowners
have the most free time.

SOIL CONSERVATION
Millers want to be good stewards of the land
You have to stay one step
ahead of the ground, Greg
Miller says.
He, his brother, Brad Miller,
and father, Garland Miller, take
an aggressive approach toward
conservation, Greg Miller said.
They see taking care of the land
as a responsibility and an obligation.
When you hear the word
sustainable, its not just sustainable for today, Miller said.
We have a responsibility to our
next generation, to our community, to everyone. If we arent
good stewards, no one else is
going to be.
The brothers work in partnership with their semi-retired
father and have a hired employee who has been with them for
six years. They have about 2700
acres of tillable land northwest
of Harris. They primarily grow
corn, soybeans and wheat, but
have added a system of cover
crops like rye or turnips to hold
the soil during winter months.
They also have pasture land for
about 200 cows as well as some
land reserved for hay.
Garland Miller began conservation work on the farm, and
Greg and Brad continued the
tradition. They implemented
no-till farming about 20 years
ago, after seeing the damage
done by erosion after a flood in
the mid-1990s.
We saw a lot of erosion, even

with terraces, Greg Miller said.
We investigated ways to slow
that process down, and that led
us to no-till.
The switch to no-till led to
a significant improvement with
less erosion, and Miller said the
greatest benefit has been economic. As the land takes care of
itself, there is a greater pay off
for those who rely on it.
After seeing the improvements from no-till farming, the
family continued to look for
ways to improve their farming
practices and make the land better.
We continue to try to be one
step ahead and try to be aggressive with conserving the soil,
Miller said.
They started planting cover
crops about seven or eight years
ago, and have been using the
process on a large scale for the
past four or five years. After
corn fields are harvested, for
example, they plant rye, wheat
or turnips or something that
will keep the land covered in
winter months.
They also use shoulder strips
and buffers to help improve the
land, and continue to look for
ways to leave the land better
than they found it.
The family will be recognized
with a conservation award from
the Kansas Bankers Association
at a ceremony Feb. 5 at Anderson
County High School in Garnett.
Woodland benefits at risk from poor management practices
MANHATTAN According to
the latest National Woodland
Owners Survey, 23 million people own 283 million acres of
woodlands in the U.S. The lack
of proper management from
most, or an estimated 21 million of these woodland owners,
has put the benefits provided
by these woodlands at risk.
This holds true for the
more than 100,000 private
woodland owners in Kansas,
said Bob Atchison, a Kansas
State University forester for the
Kansas Forest Service. Even
though there is a much smaller
area of woodlands in Kansas
compared to other states, the
trees still provide important
benefits like clean air and
water, carbon storage, outdoor
recreation, wildlife habitat and
timber products.
Atchison said the effects
of this mismanagement are
being experienced first-hand in
Kansas with the expansion of
invasive species of plants and
insects like bush honeysuckle,
emerald ash borer and Osage
orange. Drought, storms and
wildfire are also taking their
toll on the resource.
The survey also indicated
that few woodland owners
were aware of programs available to help them conserve and
improve the health of their
woodlands.
Three-quarters of those
surveyed were unaware of
financial assistance programs
like the Environmental Quality
Incentive Program, said
Atchison, which is able to
cover up to 75 percent of the
costs for planting trees, managing woodlands or renovating
old windbreaks.
The Kansas Forest Service
is taking action to address this
issue in partnership with the
Kansas Tree Farm Program.
The Kansas Tree Farm Program
actively engages Kansas woodland owners to manage their
woodlands through thoughtful
planning and by putting landowners in touch with Kansas
State University foresters who
provide management advice
through on-site visits.
Kansas woodland owners
also are encouraged to check
out online tools to help them
manage their woodlands and
create their own plans, such
as
MyLandPlan.org
and
Forestasyst.org.
For more information about
Kansas woodlands or the conservation programs developed
to help restore them, contact
the Kansas Forest Service by
phone at (785) 532-3310 or online
at Kansas Forest Service.
CCPI to provide $684K to restore Kansas windbreaks, woodlands
MANHATTAN Through the
Cooperative Conservation Partnership
Initiative (CCPI) the U.S. Department
of Agriculture will provide $684,000 in
financial assistance to Kansas landowners, farmers and ranchers who are
interested in restoring shelterbelts,
windbreaks or managing woodlands
adjacent to streams and rivers during
Fiscal Year 2014.
The funding will cover the majority
of the costs of tree planting, thinning
woodlands, removing old declining
shelterbelt rows and the use of the
heavy equipment to do it, said Bob
Atchison, forester with the Kansas
Forest Service.
Kansas Forest Service foresters are
available to help landowners complete
the technical parts of the application
process including project plans.
CCPI fits nicely into renovation and

restoration efforts because more than
44 percent of the 43,436 miles of shelterbelts in Kansas are in decline and
are no longer providing the benefits
they used to, said Larry Biles, state
forester, Kansas Forest Service.
Biles said there is a significant
percentage of Kansas streams that
lack adequate management and forest
cover, which directly contributes to
bank erosion and advanced sedimen-
tation of reservoirs, reducing Kansas
public water supply.
The initiative operates through the
Environmental Quality Incentives
Program otherwise known as EQIP.
Any producers eligible for EQIP funding can participate in the program.

Mrs. Gerald (Colleen)
Pearman now resides at Windsor

brother Mike Pearman and
his wife, Hillsboro, visited her

Colony Fire Dept. made two
fire runs this week: one was a
grass fire and Saturday evening
they were called to a fire south
of Lone Elm and into Allen
County. This area is dry; the
up and down temperatures and
high winds are not good. Thats
a good setup for damage and
losses of field crops, bushes and
plants in yards. There could be
damage to home foundations
also if this continues.
