Local officers wait, watch
pursuit legislation proposal
Revision to bill would
relax liability issue on
officers in chases
BY DANE HICKS

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Local law officers
are keeping an eye on a proposed change to Kansas law
which may make officers less
liable for injuries or damages
that happen as the outcome of
a high-speed pursuit.
The bill amending the present law was introduced last
week by the Kansas League of
Municipalities, a lobby organization and association that represents cities in Kansas, which
would strike a portion of the
text regarding the safety expectations of officers responding
to calls.
The bill as submitted last
week would retain The foregoing provisions shall not
relieve the driver of an authorized emergency vehicle, then
strike from the duty to drive
with due regard for the safety
of all persons, nor shall such
provisions protect the driver, and then
also retain
from
the
consequences of reckless
disregard for
the safety of
others.
T
h
e
change stems
King
from a lawsuit
filed
from a 2010 incident in Topeka
when a man fleeing police at
speeds over 100 mph down city
streets crashed into a vehicle
and seriously injured its two
occupants. A judge hearing the
case rejected their argument
that the officer involved didnt
have good reason to begin
and pursue the chase, but an
appeals court pointed out the
portion of the law that says
drivers of all emergency vehicles have a duty to consider
public safety as they operate
their vehicles.
The heads of local law offices in the City of Garnett and
Anderson
County dont
expect any
immediate
change
in
their
own
pursuit policies, but they

enforcement

will be paying special attention
in order to instruct officers on
proper courses of action.
I dont feel like it will
change much other than the
legal wording to help eliminate liability to the officers,
said Garnett Police Chief
Kurt King. GPD policy would
remain their same either way
on pursuits, unless legislation
gets more restrictive on the

Brrrrrrr…..Mmmmm
Local temps range -1
to 62 in days following
the polar vortex
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A wild 60-degree
temperature swing last week
has given a firm reminder to
local residents that they still
live in Kansas.
Garnett Municipal Airport
Manager Gary Ecclefield
recorded a -1 degree temperature at 8 a.m. Thursday and
a wind chill of -4. The lack
of wind benefited residents,
pets and livestocks bolstering
against that chill Thursday
morning temperature, howev-
er. Ecclefield said the Saturday,
Jan. 25 low hit 7 degrees, but
wind speeds in the 20s drove
the wind chill down to -17.
The mid-week culprit was
a polar vortex, or low-pressure areas that exist at both
of the earths poles that contract in summer and expand
in winter. This one expanded
a little further than usual, and
slapped the northern Midwest
and lakes states with ultra frigid temps. The Mt. Carroll area
near Chicago hit 38 degrees
below zero with minus 50 wind
chills which may break the
old Illinois record of -36 degrees
if its confirmed by a special
extreme weather committee.
But on the edge of the vortex, Anderson County had it
pretty balmy. Its the latest in
a cold, cloudy and wet weather
pattern thats drenched most
of the area and held water at
ground level without drying it
out. Winds which would generally buffet the area in January
and make us miserable with
wind chills would also help dry
out the saturated ground. The
lack of wind had been compounded by cloudy days without much sun to dry up the
water.
Weve had above normal
precipitation across the state,
GARNETT The citys passage of a new set of city building codes may eventually
result
in
lower property insurance premiums for
local home
and building owners,
city
officials say,
Giczewski
but the process may
take a while.
City
commissioners
approved the first major revision in city building codes
since 2006 at the January 22
city commission meeting.
City codes inspector Gary
Giczewski told the Review
last week he wont begin
enforcing the codes until
theyre in an understandable
and publicly consumable
form.
Until I receive the new
2018 code books which are on
order and I have a chance to
have some kind of a round-table discussion with the contractors, I wont enforce them
just yet, Giczewski said.
Building codes affect contractors directly because
those workers have to know
minimum specifications for
various types of construction,
plumbing, electrical work,
etc., that are deemed safest
and allowable within local
jurisdictions. Those rules are
revisited from time to time
by local governments because
materials, technology, training and techniques are constantly changing.
Those updated rules can
be more expensive for homeowners as well who have contractors do work that meets
upgraded minimums. But
Giczewski said an improved
rating from the Insurances
Services Offices could mean a
drop in insurance premiums
for property owners.
He said once that rating
evaluation is clear hell notify members of the public to
approach their own insurance companies with the new
rating in hopes of realizing
those better insurance rates.
Giczewski said he planned
to send a memo to area conSEE REGS ON PAGE 2A

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Judging by new
memberships the 24-hour
operational transition at the
Garnett Recreation Center has
been a major success.
City parks and recreation
director Phil Bures told city
commissioners last week memberships at the rec center had
bumped to 282 paid members
since the center adapted to a
24-hour access plan the highest since the centers opening
in 2011.
Granted, memberships
always grow around the
first of the year, Bures told
commissioners in a written
report, but we have never
seen an increase like we have
this year, he said. With a
couple of months of 24-hour
access under our belts we have

Some FSA deadlines extended due to funding lapse
IOLA Farm Service Agency
Director Doug Peine said last
week due to the lapse in funding, some of the Farm Service
Agency (FSA) program deadlines have been extended for
Anderson County farmers and
others across the country.
Market
Facilitation
Program (MFP) MFP provides a price subsidy for ag
commodities and some livestock that were impacted by
the loss of traditional exports.
The new deadline to sign the
CCC-910 application requesting to participate in MFP has
been extended to February 14,
2019. Once the application is
signed, all production must
be certified and signed on the
same form, by May 1, 2019, for
a payment to be processed.
Livestock Forage Program
(LFP) LFP provides payment
to eligible livestock owners
who grazed livestock in 2018 in
a county that suffered a significant grazing loss as indicated
on the United States drought
monitor. Anderson County
was an eligible county in 2018.
The new deadline to submit
an application and to provide
the necessary supporting lease
documentation is February 28,
2019.
Livestock
Indemnity
Program (LIP) LIP provides
payment to eligible livestock
owners who suffered livestock
death losses that exceed normal
mortality as a direct result of
extreme adverse weather conditions. The new deadline to
file an application for payment
associated with calendar year
2018 death loses is February
14, 2019. If you suffer loses

Insight rolls on
If you read Insight regularly youll know the man who
started this column back in
the late 70s, John Schlageck,
retired from Kansas Farm
Bureau in January.
Filling the shoes of someone
whos lived and breathed telling the story of agriculture for
45 years is no easy feat. And to
be honest theres no replacement for the way John weaves
a story and leaves you wanting
to read more.
As with all things in life
though, they change and
evolve. We know people look
forward to reading Insight and
even though it will be different
from what was, we want to continue the tradition.
For a time, we will have
guest writers sharing viewpoints from the farm. Were
excited to showcase different
voices from across the state.
Each of the writers brings a
different viewpoint and experience of farm and rural life. We
hope you will enjoy this change
of pace.
Let us introduce our
Insight columnists.
Kim Baldwin. Originally a
native of New Mexico, Kim has
a unique career background as
a teacher and a television news
professional for PBS and NBC
affiliates. She moved to Kansas
to marry her husband, Adam,
in 2010. With their children,
Banks and Isannah, the family
raises wheat, corn, soybeans,
grain sorghum and popcorn
on their McPherson County
farm. Kim teaches English and
Journalism and serves as the
Inman FFA assistant sponsor
at Inman Junior/Senior High
School.
Glenn Brunkow. Glenn
Brunkow is a fifth-generation
farmer in the Northern Flint
Hills of Pottawatomie County,
and serves on the Kansas Farm
Bureau board of directors.
When hes not working on the
farm and ranch, he writes his
own weekly column called Dust
on the Dashboard. He was a
county Extension agent for 19
years before returning to farm
and ranch full time.
Jackie Mundt. Jackie grew
up on a dairy farm in Wisconsin
and now calls Pratt County
home. She and her significant
other live on an irrigated and
dry-land crop and cattle farm in
Preston. Shes lived and worked
in large cities and today chooses to call rural Kansas home.
When shes not on the farm
or mentoring students, she
is the Communications and
Marketing Manager for Kanza
Cooperative Association.
Kim, Glenn and Jackie have
made the decision to build a life
in the Wheat State. And just
like the 30,000 other farm and
ranch families who call Kansas
Farm Bureau their farm organization, they have decided to
live and work in rural Kansas.
We think their thoughts, feelings and experiences will resonate with many of our readers.
Thank you for your past support of Insight, and we hope
you continue to join us on this
journey.

OCTOBER 15, 1928 – JANUARY 28, 2019
Shirley Marie DeVoe, age
90, of Gas, Kansas, passed away
on Monday,
January 28,
2019, at the
Allen County
Regional
Hospital in
Iola, Kansas.
She
was
born
on
Devoe
O c t o b e r
15, 1928 in
Emporium,
Pennsylvania, the daughter
of Norman and Gorda (Hill)
Herbstritt.
Shirley married Miles
Joseph DeVoe on December
18, 1948, in Emporium,
Pennsylvania. Their marriage
was blessed with ten children.
On September 6, 1980,
Shirley dedicated her life to
Jehovah God and was baptized
as one of Jehovahs Witnesses.
Her many years of Christian
service included 3 years in
the full time ministry.
Throughout her life, Shirley
was well known for three
things; her dedication to God,
her love for her family, and her
compassion for animals (except
maybe spiders). Her service to
God always came first, even if
that meant added hardships.
Through the decades, a significant focus in her life was caring for and spending time with
her extended family, including her large spiritual family.
When it came to animals, not
only did Shirley show them
love, but she would go out of
her way to make sure every
animal she came in to contact
with was being well cared for.
Within her immediate
family, she was preceded in
death by her husband Miles
on February 27, 2002; her
parents; her two brothers,
Norman Herbstritt and Ronald
Herbstritt; and her four sisters, Evelyn Llewellyn, Thora
Rose Smith, Elaine Blood, and
Melody Herbstritt (who died in
infancy).
Shirley is survived by all
ten of her children; John
DeVoe and wife LeAnna,
Carol Deese and husband
Jesse, Denise Law and husband Gene, Roseanne DeVoe,
Rosemarie Rex and husband
Victor, Joy Warren and husband Larry, Mike DeVoe and
wife Cheryl, Tom DeVoe and
wife Kathi, Calvin DeVoe and
wife Pattie, Norman DeVoe
and wife Nancy.
Her
extended
family
included 38 grandchildren,
66 great-grandchildren, 21
great-great-grandchildren, and
several nieces and nephews.
A memorial service was
held February 2, 2019, at the
Kingdom Hall of Jehovahs
Witnesses in Garnett, Kansas.

With the birth, life, death
and resurrection and accession
of Jesus a New Covenant is in
place. We celebrate this through
partaking of the Lords Supper
which is an act of worship taking
the form of a ceremonial meal
in which Christs servants share
bread and wine (or juice) to commemorate Christs death and
resurrection. Being a member
of the visible covenant community does not mean that one will
escape Gods curse. God will
destroy his enemies, those who
do not follow God or those who
profess to and yet do not come
to saving faith. We demonstrate
our faith by obeying Gods commandments. We must possess
faith not merely profess it and
that faith rests only in the person
of Jesus Christ.

The Book of Leviticus is
a book of instruction to the
Israelites from God. In chapter
26 the Lords instruction to the
Israelites culminates in promises of blessing for obedience
(verse 3-13) and curses for disobedience (verses 14-39). God was
very explicit in his explanation
of the blessings he would reward
the people with. In 26:1-2 God
sets forth the covenant requirements the Israelites were to be
subject to. Do not make idols or
set up an image or a sacred stone
for yourselves, and do not place a
carved stone in your land to bow
down before it. I am the LORD
your God, observe my Sabbaths
and have reverence for my sanctuary, I am the LORD.
The blessings the God promised the Israelites were the early
and late rains for their crops
and fruit. They would have all
the food they needed and would
live safely in their land. God
also promised to make the people fruitful and increase their
numbers. God also promises
the greatest blessing he could
offer the people. In 26:11-12, God
tells the people, I will make my
dwelling among you, and my soul
shall not abhor you. And I will
walk among you and will be your
God and you shall be my people.
In 26:14-16, God issues a warning to the people if they break the
covenant as follows: He would
visit the people with panic and
disease. They would sow their

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 5, 2019
OPINION
Kellys Medicaid expansion doesnt add up
Governor Kellys proposal to expand Medicaid
to make it available to tens of thousands of
able-bodied, childless adults could well short
cut Kansas present waiting list of eligible
Medicaid applicants, and it will cost additional
tax money that could be used to either serve
those present applicants or find other avenues
to pay for their healthcare needs outside of
government welfare.
Thats not the perspective thats being presented regarding the governors proposal,
because too few legislators and voters have
spent enough time looking at the actual expansion details and researching states that have
already made this expensive and ballooning
mistake.
The first reality is that Medicaid expansion
according to the Obamacare precepts is not an
offer to traditional Medicaid recipients the
disabled, the impoverished elderly and others
unable to provide for their own medical needs.
The Obamacare expansion is aimed at working
age individuals 38 percent above the states
established poverty line not the needy poor
and children who already qualify for the states
Medicaid program. The fact that the governors
proposed expansion goes to those substantially
already over the poverty line is a fact greatly
lost from the public discussion of its merits.
This is an expansion of benefits to those who
previously didnt qualify because they made
too much money and are able to work.
In that way, the Obamacare expansion Kelly
now wants to engage was a major shift in the
traditional mindset of providing healthcare
for those who cant provide for themselves,
to providing it for those who are able to work
and find other options on their own. As long as
those able-bodied people above the poverty line
keep their incomes down, the Obamacare plan
allows them to keep getting help heretofore
reserved for the poor.
States that have made the change for
what they saw as all that new government
money have realized the whole expensive picture. Research done by the Foundation for
Government Accountability shows new enrollment is 50 percent to 100 percent more than
original estimates, and thats not all: those new
enrollees cost on average 76 percent more than
estimated. The combination of more people
costing more money and all of them previous-
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
ly above the poverty line has presented states
that expand Medicaid a new financial dilemma.
Based on those states actual cost experience, Kansas estimated 150,000 new enrollees
could actually be 260,000 to 300,000, with total
costs of as much as $1 billion per year. The federal government, according to the Obamacare
plan, would then pay for (borrow, at taxpayer
expense) 90 percent of the costs, leaving Kansas
on the hook for $100 million per year.
Wheres that money going to come from?
Despite a balance derived from last years
tax increase, Kansas is estimated on current
expenses to exceed its revenues by $600 million
just two years from now.
Thats before what will surely be an additional tax increase to meet the Kansas Supreme
Courts latest moving target of more money for
public schools, or increased highway dollars,
or any other spending increases that end up in
subsequent years budgets.
Instead of adding another constantly ballooning government expense onto the backs of
taxpayers, Kansas Legislators should kill the
governors Medicaid expansion proposal and
instead focus on a tract for economic expansion
in the state that offers better jobs as a stepping
stone to better benefits. Kansas should aim for
more of what can be earned instead of more of
what can be given away. ###

Seriously people? Twenty thousand dollars for
an after prom party at Garnett High School?
What in the world can you possibly spend $20,000
on for an after prom party? That has to be the
most ridiculous thing I think Ive ever heard of.
Is it all limousines, caviar and champagne? It
better not be champagne because theyre not supposed to be drinking thats the whole idea of an
after prom. But I have a question. Did the people
and the businesses who donated all that money
know how it was going to be spent? Someone
told me they have so much money for this after
prom theyre going to have one of those glass
rooms where they blow the cash around inside
it and you have a certain amount of time to grab
the bills. They must be doing that because unless
New House rules will affect state legislation
Time was when, with a little parliamentary
break dancing, 63 votes ran the 125-member
Kansas House of Representatives. Something
about a majority of a quorum, and more
broadly majority rule.
Well, not sure that works anymore, this
majority rule business that you explain to
your kids.
The House this year passed a rule that
requires 70 votes to pull a bill out of a committee to the House floor for possible debate.
Oh, and it takes another70 votes to override
leadership of the chamber to set the bill for
debate and eventually a final action vote that
either passes the bill to the Senate or kills it.
Used to take a simple majority of 63 to get
a bill on the calendar for debate, and then 63
again to pass it. It now takes 70 votes to get to
the point where 63 pass a bill.
Now, if its a bill that
is popular, or politically advantageous, theres
generally no problem to
have hearings in a committee which can consider, possibly amend, and
then forward the measure to the full House.
Majority rule isnt a big
deal when a bill is either popular or relatively
inconsequential in the operation of the state.
Another distinctive license plate for members of a group or club that members pay a
premium for? As long as it isnt a flashy distinctive license plate for parolees, or maybe
actuaries, theres generally no real problem.
But saythat members of the House have
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
a bill that would–lets just use as an example–expand Medicaid in the state to about
150,000 relatively low-income Kansans. The governor likes it, the folks running the House generally
dont.
That bill is in a House committee, and its future isnt
very solid, and it just might
take an extraordinary
action to pull the bill out of
committee and forward it
to the calendar and to a floor debate and vote.
Of course, there are some reasons that just
pulling a bill out of committee complicates the
mechanics of the House, getting the debate
calendar updated, giving members of the
House a chance to familiarize themselves with
the issue and maybe to draw up amendments
to it that they might want. Getting ready for a
Once a bill gets to the
floor of either House or
Senate, the votes are
widely made public.
debate even on a relatively simple bill can be
time-consuming, and thats why it might not
look like it from the street, but legislating isnt
simple.
Now, were not going to hear much about
that rule until it gets to an issue like debating Medicaid expansion. So far much of the
discussion of the new House has been focused
on making sure everyone with Internet access
can scan through committee minutes to see
who actually thought up a bill and who introduced it and how everyone on the committee
voted on its amendments and passed the bill
out of committee. Its that transparency stuff
that few folks have the time or maybe bandwidth to spend their time on.
Once a bill gets to the floor of either House
or Senate, the votes are widely made public.
But its that in-committee stuff that has drawn
a lot of attention while the decision to hold or
pass a bill out of committee is still largely that
of the chair. The chairman can just not ask
for a vote to pass a bill to the full House, or if
things dont look good from the chairs viewpoint, can adjourn the meeting with just a rap
of the gavel.
This might be a year that rules determine
what happens to major legislation.

Covington school offense was just the MAGA hat
The fundamental offense of the Covington
Catholic High School kids wasnt so much
allegedly mobbing, mocking or getting in the
face of an American Indian drummer at the
Lincoln Memorial. It was wearing red Make
America Great Again hats. That was the
actual, incontestable conduct that created the
predicate for the presumption of guilt and all
the rest of the grief theyve been subjected to
since.
For much of progressive America, if you
are wearing the hat, you are suiting up for
Team Racist. You are marking yourself out as
a bigot and a goon. Your individuality doesnt
matter anymore, only the cap.
The entire Covington incident might have
played out differently if the kids had been
wearing red Washington Nationals caps. The
imbroglio might not have gotten any attention at all. Even if it did, progressives taking
a critical view of the students might have
been more inclined to view them as immature teenagers rather than totems of hate.
As an analysis at Vox noted, The hats extinguished pretty much any benefit of the doubt
a liberal observer might have given these
kids.
Exactly.
Alyssa Milano notoriously tweeted, The
red MAGA hat is the new white hood. Which
would be close to an apt analogy if people
donned MAGA hats to carry out hideously
violent crimes against African-Americans
and other people uncongenial to them.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
In a similar vein, TV producer David Simon
pronounced, Once a campaign prop, a
MAGA cap now fronts for such raw evil. He
makes it sound like a red baseball cap with
an embroidered American political slogan on
the front is the equivalent of the Totenkopf.
This is, to put it mildly, an uncharitable view
of their fellow citizens, who voted by the tens
of millions for the guy who invented the red
cap.
The MAGA hat denotes support for Trump,
yes, but also a certain boldness and unwillingness to be bullied that isnt merely symbolic — people occasionally get assaulted for
doing nothing other than wearing the caps.
And why not, if the cap symbolizes only one
thing for the left?
When Jamie Lee Curtis regretted her snap
condemnation of the students, journalist
Victoria Brownworth tweeted at the actress
her disappointment: DID YOU MISS THE
MAGA HATS?
This is why very little outrage has been
directed at the venomous, freakishly anti-gay,
openly racist Black Hebrews who berated and
taunted the students. They werent wearing
MAGA hats.
And this is why much of the left didnt
want to relent in the campaign against
the students, even after exculpatory video
emerged. It wasnt just that many progressives still took a hostile view of events; they
knew for a fact that the kids — at least some of
them — had worn MAGA caps. And what else
was there to know?
For them, this rendered the Covington students simply political and social symbols to
be crushed underfoot. Never mind that each
of them was a teenage kid who — even if you
think he has bad taste or noxious political
views now — has a lifetime ahead of him to
grow and change.
They wore the hats, and can never be forgiven.
you had Jay-Z playing it I dont know how you
could spend $20,000 on a after prom. Its no wonder
the Garnett kids are such spoiled brats. Imagine
what that $20,000 could have done for books or
classroom supplies or new exercise equipment or
scholarships? Why does an after prom party cost
what a wedding does, and even thats outrageous.
Twenty thousand dollars for an after prom is just
unbelievable. Thank you.
To the Republican basher, since you are obviously a cement head we could use you for mortar in
building the wall. Once the wall is built you can
move to the Mexico side. Your departure will
immensely benefit the country.
I know who should be responsible for that dog that
runs loose in the city of Kincaid the people that
let it live in their building and the people that feed
it and also the City of Kincaid because they could
put a stop to it by catching that dog. And also the
streets really need to be fixed. The potholes are
getting better.
Hey, as far as new events for 2019, how about this
idea: Lets pick a day and declare it White Pride
Day. Well obviously get lots of attention and upset
numeous individuals and groups. Go for it.
Excuse me Im laughing too hard. Declare a national emergency and build the wall. I dont know
what Trumptard wrote that. There is no emergency. More people are killed by white Americans
than anybody else. This wall is the most stupid
thing and just for his little base. Why dont you all
go brush your tooth.
To the guy who said 59 percent of the American
people dont want the wall, hey buddy, where did
you get your statistics? I know I want the wall,
and I know about everybody I know wants the
wall. You need to come up with where you got that
statistic. We need the wall.
I live in Garnett and dont know many people in
the Colony area. Ive enjoyed reading the Colony
news for a long time. Thank you Mary Luedke
for your many years of writing it. Enjoy your
retirement.

degree day the area recorded on Jan. 8, Ecclefield said.
Knapp said the overall higher
temps had been the result of
warmer than usual lows rather than higher highs.
Temperatures were expected to drop back into the 20s
later this week with lows
around 18 and a 30 percent
chance of snow on Thursday.
Knapp said outside of the
increased moisture, its about

The Frontier District will
be hosting a Land and Leasing
Program, March 4, 7:00 p.m.
at Celebration Hall, 220
West 17th, (Franklin County
Fairgrounds) in Ottawa. Mykel
Taylor, KSU Agricultural
Economist, will be the evenings featured speaker. Mykel
will discuss current land values and trends she is seeing,
she will also discuss rental
rates and where they might be
headed in 2019.
Other topics for the evening
include: lease agreements, and
the importance of landlord/
tenant relationships and communication.
From the Kansas State
Research and Extension
Publication, Ethics of Renting
Agricultural Land.
Tenants have the most
informational power.
As Agricultural Economist,
we regularly see landlords that
either, reside far away from
where their land is located,
are out of touch with current
farming practices since they
either have been gone from the
farm for decades or otherwise
obtained the land through
inheritance or marriage,
or often are elderly people.
Meanwhile, tenants generally
are intimately aware of market
rents and land values, and typically recognize the possibilities and limitations of current
farming practices. So, tenants
usually have much more relevant information than landlords. With that informational
power comes a responsibility
to not take advantage of the
landlord. This does not mean
that landlords cannot make
special concessions for their
tenants. But, such concessions
should be made with full
knowledge that they are concessions. For example, we routinely see
landlords that make concessions and both parties get
along very well. However, it
is when
tenants start to view these concessions as entitlements that
problems begin to surface.
Even though cash rents
have been steadily increasing
over time, we routinely get
calls from landlords or heirs
of landlords that reveal that
their rental rates have not
changed for years, and sometimes decades. The landlords
response typically is we
didnt know. The tenants
response typically is the landlord never asks for more rent,
or perhaps, but, I do a lot to
keep up the land and so do
not consider the arrangement
to be unfair. We believe that
such situations
are more often the fault of
the tenant than the landlord
since the tenant holds the
informational power and
should have the responsibility
to keep the landlord informed.
While we recognize that landowners have a responsibility to know what the value of
their assets is (i.e., what current rents are), we believe that
tenants should help make this
information readily available.
Communication is KEY!
Please join us March 4th, so
we can all be more informed
on issues dealing with Land
Values and Leasing. For
more information contact
Rod Schaub, Frontier District
Agent, at 785.828.4438.
As common as the smell of
a spring rain, is the sight and
smell of a prescribed burn, signaling the entry of spring and
a new growing season in the
Great Plains.
Without a doubt, fire has
played an integral part in the
development of native grasslands, throughout the central
United States. As native grass
acres continue to decrease
through time, prescribed burning activities and the use of fire
remains as important today
as a maintenance tool, equal
to or greater than times past.
It is extremely important for
prescribed burn users on both
native and cool season grasses
to properly identify their objectives, know how to conduct
burn and carryout their burn
accordingly. Commonly identified prescribed burn objectives
range from improved animal
performance, grazing distribution problems, invasive woody
species, fuel loading or extensive loads, to wildlife habitat
management. Each objective
will most likely contain different prescriptions in that timing, frequency, and fuel loads
may vary. New homes, developments, and an increasing
public presence now make it
more difficult to use prescribed
burning.
Those planning to conduct
a prescribed burn are encouraged to attend a prescribed
burn workshop, March 6 from
9:30AM-3PM at the Franklin Co
fairgrounds in Ottawa.
Registration fee is $10.00
per person to cover materials.
Preregistration is required
by calling the conservation
district at 785-241-7201 Lunch
will be served. Hosted by the
Franklin County Conservation
District in collaboration with

It was a pattern last fall thats

Anderson County totaled
2.35 inches of precipitation for
January with five inches of

Average January precipitation is 1.21 inches.
On the temperature side,
it might surprise you that the

Crest girls shut down Chetopa
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – It was a successful
home game on Friday night for
the Crest Lady Lancers as they
dismantled Chetopa 43-29.
The Lancers defensive intensity was evident early limiting
Chetopa to 5 and 7 points in the
first two periods.
Crest countered by scoring
13 and 10 of their own over that
same stretch to take a 23-12 lead
into halftime.
Chetopa chipped away
slightly in the third, holding a
10-7 advantage before the Lady
Lancers put the game away
with a 13-7 advantage in the
fourth.
A trio of Lancers hit double
figures. Beckmon led the way
with 13 points, 6 steals and 3
assists, Godderz 12 points and
3 steals and Bowen recorded a
double double with 11 points
and 11 rebounds on the night.

It was tied at 11 after the
first and then Yates Center held
a slim 24-23 lead heading into
intermission.
Following their dominating
3rd quarter, Yates Center once
again tacked one point onto the
lead in the fourth, 9-8, to close
out the victory.

derailed the run that the
Central Heights Vikings have
been on as of late, knocking
them off 64-42.

to open up a 29-18 lead at halftime.
The Vikings came out of

put the Vikings away by taking
a 50-25 lead into the fourth.
Nine players scored for the

Vikings cruise past Marmaton Valley
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – In a game that
the Central Heights Viking
boys felt in control throughout,
it took a 3rd quarter outburst
to really separate themselves
from Marmaton Valley on
Friday night in a convincing
73-34 win.
The host team started out
well, leading 17-12 after the first
quarter and behind an even
better second quarter led 36-20
at intermission.
Coming out of the locker
room, the Vikings put together
their best all around quarter
of the season dominating both
ends of the court.
Central Heights nearly
equaled their first half input
by amassing an impressive
29 points in the third quarter
while shutting down Marmaton
Valley and limiting them to
just 5 points.
So entering the fourth
quarter, a deflated Marmaton
Valley squad was facing an
insurmountable 65-25 deficit.
With reserves finishing
out the majority of the game,
Marmaton Valley had a slim 9-8
advantage in the 4th to finish
things out.
Leading the way for the bal-
anced Vikings was Beers with
14 points. Cubit, Bowker and
Coffman all chipped in with 10
points each on the evening.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – The first half of
Crests game against Marias
de Cygne Valley was hotly
contested with the score being
knotted at 22 at intermission
before Crest pulled away for a
50-37 victory.
Crest would hunker down
in the second half defensively,
especially in the third quarter
as they limited MDCV to just 5
points, to win the contest by 13
after the halftime tie.
Crest would score 12 points
in the third and tack on 16
more in the fourth.
The Lancers were led by
Godderz with 15 points, Bowen
with 12 points, 5 rebounds and
4 steals and Beckmon with 10

Sheriff Vern Valentine had
similar expectations.
It will not change the way
we do things here or my policies, Valentine said. My
understanding is the departments can still be held liable if
they harm a person. Valentine
said his understanding was
that damages could still be
assessed to insurance companies of departments where officers were involved in crashes,
but the officer couldnt be held
liable as long as the pursuit
was under lights and siren.
Again, it is all about how
the statute is worded and I
think they are just trying to fix
the wording, Valentine said.

King said he would like to
see laws focused on the responsibilities of drivers and of those
who flee police.
To me the real question
is when are we going to start
holding the criminals truly
accountable for their actions,
King told the Review. They
are the ones that dont have
regard for anyones safety. The
Officers dont ask the criminals
to flee or to commit crimes.
In my opinion the legislation should focus on stiffer
penalties for the criminals
actions, King said, not looking for an officer to blame for
doing their job.
The bill is presently being

2018 Kansas Bankers Association
Conservation Award Winners
The 2018 Kansas Bankers Association Conservation awards for Anderson County will be presented at a special banquet at noon on Friday,
Feb. 8, 2019 at Prairie Belles in Garnett. The annual banquet is sponsored by area banks in honor of farm conservation practices.
Winners: Merle Rockers – Soil Conservation; Les McGhee – Grassland Award
Key Banker: Bank of Greeley
Anderson County Conservation District Board Members: Mike Hastert, Randy Bunnel, Justin Zook, Kirby Barnes, Matt Powe.
Rockers started farming at 12 with early respect for the land
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT When Merle
Rockers two oldest brothers
got drafted into World War II,
he joined the family farming
operation pretty much full
time.
He was 12.
Now, he watches as satellites give instructions to mechanisms on farming equipment
to plant and work near-perfect
rows to cut down on waste and
improve efficiencies. Farmings
come a long way from plowing
the first terraces in the 1950s,
he said, but attention to the
ground and staying engaged
with better practices are part
of what won him the Anderson
County Conservation Districts
Continuing
Conservation
Award.
The district meets for its
annual award luncheon Friday
with a program and meal sponsored by local banks.
We started plowing terraces as soon as the government came out with that in
the 1950s, Rockers said. We
always felt like it was important to take care of the fields
because we depended on them.
Rockers skipped high school
and stayed at work on the
farm working with his brother
Les and eventually going into
partnership with his father
in 1962. He never graduated
high school, but when times
got particularly hard farming in the 1980s Rockers got
his GED (General Education
Development) degree as some-

thing to fall back on.
I figured I needed it in case
things got real bad and I had to
go out and get a job, he said.
Over the years Rockers ran
cattle and farmed more than
two thousand acres at the peak
of his career, adding brush
management and grassland
field care to the operations
regular duties as well. He still
keeps 10 head of cows and owns
some 800 acres, but he sold the
mainstay of his operation to his
sons in 2000 and stays on in a
semi-retired advisory capacity.
The operation adopted almost
all no-till about 15 years ago, he
said, and with cover cropping
has gone a long way toward
maintaining the integrity of
the soil. He said technology, by
far, had been the biggest force
in farming over his career.
Im thankful the good
Lord left me around to see the
use of this RTK (Real Time
Kinematic), Rockers said,
noting the mostly automated
satellite-guided systems that
guide planting and combining along Global Positioning
System tracks, reducing waste
and operator fatigue. The constantly changing technology
makes it fun to compare to the
equipment he had when he
started farming, he said.
Of course when we started we had tractors and worn
out plows, he said. But these
(RTK) are really something.
In recognition of agricultural techniques that
preserve our future, we congratulate this

McGhee wins Kansas Bankers
Association Grassland Award
BUSH CITY Local cattleman
Les McGhee is a devotee of pasture burning as a means for good
grass management, and following the lessons hes learned in a
40-year career has earned him the
Anderson County Conservation
Districts Grassland Award for
2018.
Weve used these practices
for over 40 years, McGhee said
last week. On native grass, when
we ran stockers we tried to burn
every year. Now were basically
cow/calf we try to burn every
three years sometimes every
five.
McGhee said proper burning
schedules are impacted by more
factors that just a cattlemans
good intentions factors like
weather and available weather
and the encroaching end of the
burning season as affected by
those all make the plan more
challenging.
McGhee learned the trade
farming with his parents before
graduating Crest High School
with the class of 1971, worked a
few years in construction and
then returned home to grow the
operation. He now runs several hundred head of cattle on a
combination of leased and owned
acreage around the area.
He said different years present
different challenges. Last years
slim season moisture left most
of the burning season too dry to
control a burn, and as the year
turned out, its probably a good
thing we didnt, McGhee said, in
order to avoid damage to the pastures they were trying to treat.
Sericea Lespedeza presents
the biggest challenge to local
pastures, McGhee said, because
burning it activates its seed and
makes it easier to spread. He said
the trick was to spray for the
weed soon after burning.
2×4
R&R Equip
Congratulations to all area soil conservation winners!
All of its a constant fight,
he said. Brush, lespedeza, musk
thistle you cant let it go. You
cant redicate it. The best youre
going to do is try to control it.
McGhee noted one often neglected but destructive pest Eastern
Red Cedar because the trees
tendency to shade and kill root
systems underneath it. You see
those cedars on the sides of hills,
and when theyre gone those hills
will all wash away, McGhee
said.
Finding pasture to properly manage is another growing
problem, McGhee said. With so
many absentee landowners owning property in Anderson County
and the surrounding area, he
said, even long-term leases have
a tendency to evaporate when
owners change hands.
One of the things thats bothered me about the way things
have changed is that it used to
be the people who made their living on the land owned the land,
McGhee said. Thats not the way
it is anymore. And the reason
is the land wont pay for itself
anymore. Something else has to
make up the difference.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 5, 2019
PUBLIC NOTICES
Costly and inconvenient: Frozen/burst pipes
are a big headache this time of the year
With the fluctuating temperatures that often come
this time of year in our state,
Kansas homeowners could find
themselves dealing with damage caused by frozen or burst
pipes. With periods of brutally cold weather, pipes are at
risk of freezing due to sudden
temperature drops, poor insulation or incorrect thermostat
settings.
The thawing from warmer
temperatures, along with the
refreezing at night could continue to contribute to the problem, according to AAA Kansas
Insurance experts.
Freezing temperatures put
your pipes at risk, and recovery can be difficult and costly, said Alex Greig, Regional
Insurance Director for AAA
Kansas. Both plastic and copper pipes can burst. A crack as
small as 1/8-inch can spew up
to 250 gallons of water per day,
causing flooding, serious structural damage and the potential
for mold.
While cold weather is not
unexpected in Kansas, the periods of extreme cold has many
homeowners paying an unexpected price, Greig added.
Knowing ways to keep your
pipes from freezing and how
to effectively manage the aftermath, from cleanup to insurance claims, is key.
With more than two months
of winter left and more frigid
weather likely in the weeks
ahead, AAA Kansas offers suggestions that can help homeowners and renters prevent
pipes from freezing and bursting, and provides the following
tips when encountering frozen/burst pipes and for managing resulting home insurance
claims:
Preventing Frozen Pipes:
Make sure everyone in
your family knows where the
water shut-off valve is and how
it works.
Insulate pipes in your
homes crawl spaces and attic,
even if you live in an area
where freezing temperatures
are unlikely.
Seal gaps around pipes
that allow cold air inside.
You also should look for air
leaks around electrical wiring,
clothes dryer vents and pipes.
Use caulk or insulation to keep
the cold out.
Disconnect garden hoses. If
possible, use an indoor valve to
shut off and drain water from
pipes leading to outside faucets. This reduces the chance
that pipes inside the house will
freeze.
If a freeze is expected, consider allowing warm water to
drip slightly overnight, preferably from a faucet on an outside wall. Even a slight trickle may keep your pipes from
freezing.
When there is the possibility of a freeze, dont turn
down the thermostat at bedtime. Instead, maintain the
same setting day and night.
Drops in temperature, which
are more common overnight,
could freeze your pipes.
Open cabinet doors. This
will allow heat to reach uninsulated pipes located under
sinks.
AAA Travel agents report
that this is a busy time for
travelers looking for good
deals or trips to warmer places. If youre going on vacation
or leaving your home for an
extended period of time, consider maintaining minimal
heat to prevent freezing.
Recovering from
Frozen Pipes:
If you turn on your faucets
and nothing comes out, your
pipes are likely frozen. Dont
wait for them to burst. Take
measures to thaw them immediately, or call a plumber for
assistance.
You may be able to use a
hair dryer to thaw a frozen
pipe. Begin by warming the
section of pipe closest to the
faucet, then work your way out
toward the coldest part of the
pipe.
Never use a hair dryer or
any electrical appliances in
areas of standing water. You
could be electrocuted.
Never try to thaw a pipe
with a torch or other open
flame. It could cause a fire.
If your water pipes have
already burst, turn off the
water at the main shutoff valve
in the house, leave the water
faucets turned on, and call a
plumber.
Mop up spills. You do not
want the water to do more damage than it already has.
Call your insurance company claims department as
soon as you can. An insurance
adjuster does not need to see
the spill before you take action.
However, the adjuster will
want to inspect any damaged
items.
Make temporary repairs
and take other steps to protect your property from further
damage. Remove any carpet or
furniture that can be further
damaged from seepage.
Managing Home
Insurance Claims
Make a list of the damaged
articles and take photos.
Save the receipts for what
you spendincluding additional living expenses if you
must leave your home until
repairs are completedand
submit them to your insurance
company for reimbursement.
Standard homeowners policies will cover most of the
kinds of damage that result
from a freeze. For example, if
house pipes freeze and burst
or if ice forms in gutters and
causes water to back up under
roof shingles and seep into the
house. You would also be cov-
ered if the weight of snow or
ice damages your house.
If your home sustains
water damage, it is important
to make sure that it is properly
dried and repaired to prevent
any potential problem with
mold. Remember, mold cannot
survive without moisture.
Check with your agent or
insurance company to be sure
of what your policy covers.
Prevention is the key to protecting your home this winter.
A few simple steps can help
you avoid a frozen pipes nightmare, AAA Kansas Greig
said. For added peace of mind,
its a good idea to make sure
you have adequate homeowners insurance.

Lady Bulldogs offensive Lady Vikings cruise
struggles glaring in loss past Marmaton Valley

BURLINGTON – The Anderson
County Bulldog girls played
Burlington tough for the first
quarter before they dominated
the rest of the way en route to a
65-23 victory.
The
Bulldogs
kept
Burlington in check early on
as Burlington was clinging to a
12-9 lead after the first quarter.
Burlington began to impose
their will in the second and
continued their dominance
into the third quarter, outscoring Anderson County 45-12 in
the two periods combined to
take a 57-21 lead into the fourth.
Both teams struggled to

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – Saturday, Marias
de Cygne Valley traveled to
Colony in a make-up game and
was run over by the host Crest
Lancers, losing 66-38.
Crest crushed MDCVs spirits early with a dominating 21-3
run in the opening quarter.
There would be a much
more subtle addition to the lead
throughout the final 3 quarters
as they pulled away for the 28
point victory.
Hayden Hermreck led the
way with 29 points, 7 rebounds
and 4 assists.
Beckmon tacked on 19 points
to go along with his 4 rebounds
and 2 steals.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – Crest jumped out to
a 12 point halftime lead before
holding off down the stretch in
a 69-61 win over Chetopa High
School.
Crest was solid all night
offensively but it was the first
half defense that put them
in position for the victory.
Chetopa scored just 11 and 10
points in the first and second
quarter.
Crest countered with 16 and
17 points in each quarter of the
first half to take a 33-21 lead
into hafltime.
Chetopa played with a much
better tempo in the second half
scored 18 in the third and 22 in
the fourth but Crest countered
with 36 points of their own to
close out the game.
The three headed trio of
Hermreck, Beckmon and
Holloman led the way with 28,
19 and 11 respectively for Crest.

Bulldogs rally from early
deficit for huge road win
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
BURLINGTON – It was a much
needed win for Anderson
County Tuesday on the road
at Burlington 77-69 following
a heartbreaking loss just the
previous Friday night in overtime.
It appeared early on that the
hangover from that loss might
make the Bulldogs sluggish.
Anderson County trailed
20-13 after the first quarter, but
quickly broke out in the second quarter scoring 23 points
while limiting Burlington to
12 to take a 36-32 lead into halftime.
The Bulldogs continued to
roll in the third quarter, tacking on 9 points to their lead
to jump head into the fourth
quarter leading 58-45.
The defensive intensity fell
slightly in the fourth quarter
for Anderson County as they
let Burlington chip away at
the lead, but they had plenty
of offense left in them to pull
out the win. Burlington scored
24 points in the fourth but
Anderson County answered
with 19 to hold on.

RICHMOND – It was homecoming Friday night for the
Central Heights Vikings and
the girls made easy work of
Marmaton Valley, 46-25.
Early on, it didnt look like
it would even be that close as
the Vikings raced out to a 19-3
lead after the first quarter.
The rest of the game was
much more of a tightly fought
game as Marmaton Valley
scored 22 points over the
final three periods and limited Central Heights to just 27
points over that same span.
Vikings head coach knows
the significance a win can have
on a squad searching for confidence.
It (the win) was big for a
number of reasons, most of
which is weve had some tough
losses and games where weve
hung around but couldnt quite
get over the hump or finish
strong. We came out playing
great on both ends of the floor
and built a lead that we never
gave up. Leading wire to wire
was nice especially on our
Queen of Courts night. It also
is big for seeding in our substate, Coach North stated.
The top two scorers for
Central Heights was one point
more than Marmaton Valley
had for the game. Compton
scored 14 points to lead the
Lady Vikings and Brown
added 12.
Abby (Brown) got us going
on the defensive end in the first
quarter. Mary Roehl (6 points)
and Lily Meyer (7 points) got
us on a roll offensively. Taryn
had a great night knocking
down open shots. Our young
players are really stepping
up which is great this time of
year, North added.

Lady Vikings downed by Oz
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – Central Heights
started well but just couldnt
keep pace over the second and
third quarters in a loss at home
to Osawatomie on Thursday
night, 50-39.
The Vikings trailed just 15-12
after the first but Osawatomie
dominated both the second
and third quarters defensively, limited the Vikings to 6 and
7 points in them respectively
while scoring 13 in each period
themselves to lead 41-25 heading into the fourth.
Central Heights held the
upper hand in the final quarter, 14-9, but it was too little too
late.
Despite the defeat the
Vikings had a couple of good
performances offensively as
both Brown and Roehl scored
14 points on the night. Free
throws were a large part of the
total as Brown knocked down 6
of 7 and Roehl connected on 7
of 10.
