THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Before city staff create up to
13 new campsites on the west side of Lake
Garnett, commissioners want numbers.
How much will it cost to convert two
areas near the west shelter house for
campgrounds?
How many people camp at the lake
each year?
How often and when does the city have
to turn away potential campers because
sites are full?
Mayor Greg Gwin and Commissioner
Gordon Blackie said they want answers
to those questions before they would
consider a proposal from City Manager
Joyce Martin to create two new camping

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETTT – Employees at the
Taylor Forge – Humco plant
in Garnett are finishing existing jobs before the plant closes later this month, the victim
of low oil and gas prices that
continue to drop. But it could
be early February before final
cleanup is finished and the
plant officially is shuttered.

Were slowly moving
toward shutting it down, Mike
Kilkenny, CEO of Taylor Forge
Engineered Systems, Inc.,
based in Paola,
Most employees still remain
on the job, Kilkenny said, even
after the closing was announced
in early December to give them
time to prepare and find other
positions within the company
or other jobs elsewhere. Those
employees are finishing exist-

ing projects, which are expected to be completed later this
week or early next week. Some
employees will stay to clean up
and move equipment to other
plants. Officially, the Garnett
plant will close Jan. 29.
The folks down there have
been great, Kilkenny said.
They have maintained our
production and our safety
record. Morale is as good or
better than could be expected.
Market conditions, particularly low prices in the oil and
gas industries, were the primary factor in closing the Garnett
plant, Kilkenny said prevously.
The Garnett plant also is
being closed because of the condition of the facilities, particularly in its lifting capacity.
Taylor Forge products require
lifting of large, heavy pieces of
steel equipment; the company
cannot install larger, heavier cranes at the Garnett plant
without major modifications.
Taylor Forge is an engineering and fabrication firm for
products primarily related to
the oil and natural gas industries, such as building steam
drums for boilers, extruded
outlets and scraper traps for
gas pipelines. In addition to its

City agrees to buy
1MW of wind power
State group offers
chance to add wind to
citys energy portfolio
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – City commissioners bet last week that overpaying some $67,000 for the next
five years for wind power will
bring a $388,000 savings at the
end of 20 years when and if
market prices for electricity
surpass their contract price.
The deal with the Kansas
Municipal Energy Agency for
wind power generated by a wind
farm in Marshall County will
mean Garnett will pay $24,158
more in 2016 than the present
cost of other power, $20,464
more that market prices next
year and so on up until 2022,
when KMEAs proposal says
market prices will be at $33.91
per mega watt hour compared
to the $33.80 /MWh the city will
begin paying this year. The city
will begin buying 1 mega watt
per year this year and every
year through 2035. That amount
presently represents about 13
percent of Garnetts total annual power need.
Projections in the contract
show Garnett would begin to
recover its losses in 2022, when
its contract price will yield
a $492 per year savings over
what market prices are estimated to be then. That savings
will increase through 2035 as
inflation drives up the market
rate for power, the KMEA proposal says, until Garnett saves
$388,856 over the 20 year conSEE ENERGY ON PAGE 3A

tract term.
The contract came about as
controversy swirls over construction of a wind farm in
eastern Anderson County, but
is unrelated to that proposal.
Three other cities, Baldwin
City, Gardner and Ottawa, will
buy the balance of the combined
7 MW contract. Altogether, the
cities will overpay to the tune
of $550,000 the first five years,
until rates catch up to the contract price in the 6th year. By
the end of 20 years, however,
the group savings will be $2.7
million.

Superintendent Bob Mills urged
commissioners to agree to the
contract, saying the opportunity to purchase that amount
of wind energy doesnt come
along very often and would provide more diversity in the citys
power porfolio in the event that
something catastrophic should
happen to other electric sources
like coal or natural gas.
Because wind energy is generated by turbines that turn
without the use of other fossil
fuels like coal, oil or gas, the
cost doesnt fluctuate depending on market prices for such
fuels. That makes it possible
to lock in purchases prices
for long periods of time. The
Marshall facility is expected to
produce electricity about half
the time, when the wind blows
sufficiently to power the turbines.
Paul Walburg, KMEA general manager, said another
advantage of the Marshall Wind
contract was that it protects the
city from risk should something happen that prevents the
power from being delivered,
from something as simple as
the wind not blowing to a major
catastrophe like a tornado that
destroys the turbines and wipes
out the wind farm.

questioned
commissioners
about the contract, citing concerns that the city was essentially being forced to buy power
it doesnt need to meet a potential future mandate. He urged
commissioners to make a statement protesting the strong-arm
tactics from the federal government. He said utility companies
typically raise rates after purchasing wind power, and coal
and other plants must continue
to operate to account for times
when wind power isnt available.
Walburg said while Hicks
had valid points regarding the
tendency for utility companies
to raise rates, the citys contract with Marshall was based
on good economics and not politics. The contract would double
the citys investment over the
course of 20 years, and would
diversify the citys energy portfolio.
Regardless of any mandate,
its a good idea to have multiple
sources of energy, Mayor Greg
Gwin and City Manager Joyce
Martin said. If for some reason
coal or nuclear power plants
were suddenly shuttered, the
city still would be able to provide some type of electricity.
We get in on the ground
floor, Martin said. If we have
to negotiate for power, well
have this. It will only benefit us
in the long run.

They told commissioners the
company potentially could pay
an estimated $500,000 or more
per year to the county instead
of paying property taxes. Wind
farms currently are exempt
from property taxes in Kansas,
so companies often offer payments in lieu of taxes to the
host counties as an incentive.
The proposal to build a wind
farm in Anderson County has
generated quite a bit of controversy since the company first
approached local officials and
landowners in November.
A December meeting with
prospective landowners whose
land Calpine wants to lease
brought out vocal opposition
from some landowners and
neighbors. They say they are
concerned about the restrictions on land use as part of the
lease agreement, the effect of a
wind farm on neighboring property values and the aesthetics
of a changing landscape if the
wind farm were to be built.
Wind farm supporters, however, point to the economic
boom such a project could provide. They cite lease payments
of $6,000 per year per turbine,
plus other potential benefits and
royalties as well as an economic
boost to the area in terms of construction and jobs. Calpine said
the company would improve
some county roads, as it would
need to develop infrastructure
that could support transporting
heavy equipment to build the
turbines. Although wind farms
receive a tax exemption, energy
companies typically pay host
counties a payment in lieu of
taxes, or PILOT, which can
help residents by providing
money to schools and services,
Stanton said.
The PILOT typically is based
on a cost per megawatt, and
typically increases over time,
Stanton said. It likely would
continue annually throughout
the length of the tax abatement,
and would end when the abatement ends.
A PILOT for a wind farm
in Waverly, now under construction, paid Coffey County
$497,500 in December, according to an article in The Coffey
County Republican. Because
the PILOT is not tax money,
county officials essentially can
is available in that area during
other events, like go-kart races.
The sites tend to fill up
during events, Martin said.
Every site already is reserved
for May, she said.
The popularity of camping
during special events, combined with limited sites, led city
staff to consider other areas at
the lake that could be converted
to camp sites.
Gwin and Blackie did not say
much about Martins proposal
for the new sites, instead asking
her to provide more information and statistics about the frequency of camping at the lake.
Martin also talked about the
issue at the citys parks and recreation committee meeting last
week. Members of the advisory
committee, like commissioners,
said they wanted to see more
information but suggested the
city might be better served with
new camping sites in other locations, such as on the east side
of the lake near the east shelter
house or at the Cedar Valley
Reservoir.
Martin said she was pleased

distribute the money how they
want. Coffey County officials
gave 55 percent of the money as
gifts to two school districts to
spend as they see fit, and put 45
percent in the countys general fund, the newspaper article
said.
During last weeks meeting
with Anderson County commissioners, Stanton and Rundell
said a PILOT for their project
likely would be similar, starting around $500,000.
PILOTs are all different,
Stanton said. They reflect
how negotiations go, how productive is the wind farm. We
want to offer an amount that is
acceptable to both parties but
allows us to be competitive.
But before Calpine and
county officials can settle the
terms of any PILOT, the company first has to determine if it
will even build the wind farm
in Anderson County, so it has
to collect wind data over an
extended period of time. They
started that process last week,
with the installation of the
SODAR on private property via
a lease agreement. That lease
agreement is different than
the agreement for a turbine,
Stanton said.
The SODAR is a meteorological instrument that measures
wind speed at various heights
above ground. In the next
month or two, Calpine plans to
install a 300 foot tower near the
SODAR, and that equipment
will collect wind information
over six months to a year.
Calpine is looking for a couple of other areas to test the
wind resource, Stanton said.
Eastern Anderson County
was targeted as a prime location for the wind farm because
it is thought that wind speeds
up as it moves up and over the
countys eastern ridge, Stanton
said. The SODAR and other
weather testing equipment will
provide more accurate data to
test that theory.
If the meteorological data
supports a wind farm, and if
Calpine is able to secure enough
property leases to support the
number of turbines needed,
it still would be several years
before a wind farm could be
operational.

EDITORIAL
Kansas needs hemp
as cash crop option
What if, when the Taylor Forge metal
fabrication plant in Garnett shuts down
this month as previously announced and
puts an end to 28 local jobs, its former
employees were able to drive across town
to find comparable employment at a local
plant that processes locally-grown industrial hemp?
And what if, in addition to rotations of
corn and wheat and soybeans, farmers in
Anderson and other Kansas counties had
the option to grow highly-profitable industrial hemp to sell to that local processor?
And what if, a local company similar to
the one that formed the East Kansas Agri
Energy ethanol plant in Garnett owned
that processing facility, made excellent
profits selling processed hemp fiber, oil
and seeds to treat cancer and brain seizures and to use in place of plastics and
cotton in a huge range of products and
healthier foods? And what if that company
paid dividends, as EKAE has done, to its
local investors?
Hemp would be cool in Kansas, thats
what.
But right now, too many people in Kansas
think industrial hemp is marijuana, and
that misunderstanding among lawmakers
and the public makes hemp growing and
processing illegal in our state. That misunderstanding means were losing money
and economic vitality to other states that
are better educated and more aggressive.
Hemp products sold in the U.S. right
now most all made from plants grown in
foreign countries are raking in $500 million a year in U.S. sales and our farmers
who could grow the plant in Kansas arent
making a dime of it.
Hemp aint pot. Its similar in physical
makeup, but it has a THC content of 0.3
percent or less you could smoke a bale of
it and never get high. Its known in illegal
drug circles as Hippies Disappointment.

hiding cigarette smokers to the barn door,
demand for tobacco a former cash crop in
Kentucky has dropped to the point many
farmers have left farming altogether. But
the state agriculture department is pursuing hemp as a replacement for tobacco
under a special provision of the new U.S.
Farm Bill, and Kentucky is well ahead of
other states in developing this futuristic
crop.
Kansas can get there, but our Legislature
needs to act this session. Rep. Willie
Dove from Bonner Springs has a bill that
would authorize the Kansas Department
of Agriculture to license industrial hemp
growing in the Sunflower State and get the
industry kicked off here as a new option
for farmers and an investment opportunity for entrepreneurs. Its the same track
Kentucky took to start developing the
industry there.
The closing of Taylor Forge in Garnett
drives home the importance of having job
options in our communities. Kansas economy as a whole needs the opportunities
hemp provides.
Our small towns have gotten too used
to bad economic news. Kansas legislators
should legalize hemp to give us another
option to grow prosperity.

My advice is that all the landowners in the
wind energy project area should combine as
one group so they can decide as a group if
they want this farm, and if they do they can
negotiate from a position of power. Several
years ago a group in Wyoming did that and all
the landowners in the project area shared in
the revenue whether there was a tower on the
property or not. Remember, united you stand.

Ted Cruz is Nixon, not Goldwater
The lazy conventional wisdom is that Ted
Cruz is the new Barry Goldwater, doomed to
suffer an electoral landslide defeat should he
win the Republican nomination.
Not only is this wrong about Cruzs general-election chances, it may compare Cruz
to the wrong 20th-century Republican forebear. The better analogue for Cruz might be
Richard Nixon, not in the crudely pejorative
sense, but as another surpassingly shrewd
and ambitious politician who lacked a personal touch but found a way to win nonetheless.
First, all the caveats. Obviously and most
importantly, Cruz is not a paranoiac. Hes
more ideological than Nixon. And he has
none of Nixons insecurity, in fact the opposite. Nixon went to tiny Whittier College and
resented the Northeastern elite; Cruz went to
Princeton and Harvard, and could be a member of the Northeastern elite in good standing
if he wanted to be.
But Cruz is cut from roughly similar cloth.
He wears his ambition on his sleeve and
isnt highly charismatic or relatable. If Cruz
wins the nomination, itll be on the strength
of intelligence and willpower. Hell have
outworked, outsmarted and outmaneuvered
everyone else.
Certainly, Cruz isnt ascending on the
basis of warm feelings from his colleagues.
Cruz portrays his unpopularity within the
Senate as establishment distaste for him as

a lonely man of principle. But its a genuine
personal dislike.
Not that Cruz cares. In fact, a key to what
he has been able to achieve is his apparent
immunity to the reflexive desire to be liked
by people around you, a weakness to which
almost all of us fall prey. Cruz is free of the
peer pressure that typically makes all senators, at some level, team players.
Cruz is a Reagan Republican, although
with considerable flexibility. When Rand
Paul seemed to be on the ascendancy a couple
of years ago, Cruz was a Reagan Republican
with Paulite accents. When Donald Trump
began to dominate, Cruz became a Reagan
Republican with Trumpian tendencies.
Cruz penned an op-ed with Paul Ryan last
April that was a ringingly stalwart argument
for trade-promotion authority. Two months
later, when a brush fire erupted on the right
over Obamatrade, Cruz abruptly reversed
course and came out against trade-promotion
authority — he cited procedural reasons — and
then opposed the underlying trade agreement
as well.
Is all the effort on Cruzs part only in the
cause of a 1964-style ideological blowout? No.
The countrys too evenly divided for another
Goldwater-style landslide loss, and Hillary
Clinton is a deeply flawed candidate.
But Cruz has major vulnerabilities. Hes
more ideologically defined than George W.
Bush in 2000 or Barack Obama in 2008, and
his current theory of the general election -that he need turn out only conservatives — is
a comforting fable.
Marco Rubio and Chris Christie are both,
in their own ways, more winsome, and its
easier to see how each of them could pick off
Obama states. But Cruz has always understood that you have to win the primary to win
the general. Whoever is going to beat him
better know what hes doing — because Cruz
certainly does.

Just balance the state budget… with distractions
Because the only thing that the Legislature
absolutely, positively has to do this session
is adopt a budget that leaves at least $1 in the
state treasury on July 1, youd figure this year
might be simple.
Except, that the budget Gov. Sam
Brownback presented to the Legislature is
based on the shifting sands of state revenues,
and already legislators are dubious that if
they adopted it, say, at the end of the week, it
would hold up.
And, they are having that feeling that the
real work of balancing the budget as revenues
continue to drop below expectations is going
to be on themjust months before they stand
for re-election.
Besides that giant problem, youll be glad to
know that the first week of the 2016 session
well, four days because they took Friday off
was accomplished with no apparent (compensable) injuries and some interesting bills
introduced that will make nice distractions
for the next few months.
Say that little bill that will raise from 75
mph to 80 mph the speed limit on four-lane
divided highways where we spend much of
our travel lifetimes. And, if nobody gets too
finicky, that boost means that practically, you
probably arent going to be pulled over until
you are clocked at 74 or 75 mph, and even
then, its going to be 90 mph before the speeding ticket becomes a moving violation, which
will spike your auto insurance premiums.
Or, the unusual bill that essentially marries you to a firearms or ammunition dealer?
Huh?
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
Yes, the measure called the Kansas firearms industry nondiscrimination act says
that you cant refuse to do business with, or
quit doing business with, any legally licensed
firearms or ammunition seller. Not sure
where that goes. If your local store, say,
moves the gun rack to the front of the store,
so that you have to walk to the back to get
your ice cream and it starts to melt as you
are standing in the checkout line, well, you
may have discriminated against the Kansas
firearms industry or maybe not. Someone
thought that was a good idea, and it might
take a public hearing to get it explained.
Because bills dealing with guns always
bring a crowd to the Statehouse, were wondering also about a bill that would make it a
criminal offense for a gun dealer to sell guns
to anyone on a watch list. Now, that appears
to make sense, if people on federal watch lists
who cant board airplanes are people we
want to have guns, anyway. But, it appears
that even if those folks on watch lists cant
buy guns, well, they might be able to drive 80
mph.
Yes, there are lots of things to keep lawmakers busy, or at least distracted, during the
session, and some of those bills might make
headlines.
There are, of course, more serious issues
facing lawmakers financing K-12 education
at a constitutional level; but that is likely to
be put on hold while the Kansas Supreme
Court decides just how much money is necessary to provide every child in the state the
same chance to get a good education so they
can take care of us grownups.
Dont look for school finance to get solved
this session, and also, dont look for the
Supreme Court to make a ruling with dramatic budget consequences this spring while lawmakers are in session. At this point a majority of legislators believed they know how to
finance public education and the courts ought
to stay out of it. Five of the nine justices of the
Kansas Supreme Court stand for retention
election this year, and they might just be
mindful of whether they want to stir up legislative angst before the election.
And they might just want to keep things
quiet so they can drive 80 mph this summer

I have a question for the Review. Why was it
important to include the word Amish in your
headline about the broken boiler at Mont Ida?
If those kids were all Catholic or Baptists,
would you have included that in the headline?
Id be really proud to know that a person that
worked out at that steel fabrication that put all
those employees out of business that have no
jobs, and then they want to strip them of everything and treat them like (deleted). Karmas

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 1-19-2016 / Photo Submitted
A seminar in February with professional archaeologists could help
determine if this is just a rock or a piece of bone.
What is this thing?
Bone or stone?
Bone or stone? Thats the
question. I found this object
while clearing out some underbrush. It was approximately
6-8 inches deep, all wound up
in small tree and brush roots.
What seemed very odd to me
was, there were no other rocks,
etc. found in this or the surrounding work area.
I decided to bring it home,
clean it up and perform the old
stickum to the tongue test. I
must say, it didnt work, but
Im not sure it will work on
fossilized bone. I do know, however many bones are tested just
this way during archaeological
excavations Ive been involved
in. You just simply take the
object and very gently touch it
against your tongue and if its
truly an old bone it will have
a tendency to stick (make sure

The outside of this object
appears to be stone, but both
ends look very suspicious. In
late February I will be attending a seminar in Topeka and at
that time I will let two or three
professional archaeologists
examine it and decide whether its just another ROCK or

Anderson County residents
bundled up, skipped school
and used a lot of electricity as
a result of the Thursday blizzard that put the area into the
hardest freeze in recent memory. Residents woke to gusting
winds, single-digit temperature
and driving ice and snow which
lasted most of the day into
the early evening. The snow
accumulation was 3-5 inches
but the most brutal aspect of
the storm was its fierce winds
which pushed the chill factor
into negative double digits.

The organization that has
been so busy helping millions
cope with unprecedented disasters in the past four months
has declared January 22,
1986, as American Red Cross
UnDisaster Day in Anderson
Ad Start Date:
County. The local chapter will
have a disaster dinner and
volunteers will simulate a real
shelter operation, complete
with emergency radio communications, first aid and nursing
stations, sound effects, sleeping
and mass care areas and other
typical shelter functions.
Medical costs, malpractice suits and awards were
discussed considerably by
Congressman Bob Whitaker,
who made his annual listen-
ing tour in Anderson County
Thursday. He met with about
20 people in the Community
Building in Colony and
answered questions of various
items of concern. He endorsed
suggestions that changes need
to be made in the Medicaid program so that 100 percent of disabled people might be cared for
at home rather than in an institution, very possibly at lower
cost.

The latest chapter in the
saga of spiking natural gas
prices landed in the mailboxes of Garnett utility customers
earlier this month. The story
wasnt pretty, and all the more
reason for natural gas customers to hope for a happy ending
with mild temperatures. City
officials have been wrestling
with gas pricing for much
of the past two years, and in
November warned the public
that the latest spike in price
could result in price increases
as much as 40 percent to some
city utility customers.
A Neighborhood Watch program takes a lot of volunteer
resources and commitment,
law officers told about 25 people at an orientation meeting
Wednesday night in Garnett.
But the information such
groups provide can be critical
in helping police and court
prosecutors stop crime. The
meeting was the first in what
organizers hope will be a series
to help teach people in various
areas of the county to be alert to
what goes on in their neighborhoods, and most of all to inform
residents that what may seem
like an inconsequential piece of
information may be the break
police are looking for to solve
crimes if its passed along.

LOCAL
LIEAP application period opens today
TOPEKA Heating your home
during the winter months can
create a financial burden. In
an effort to help keep Kansans
warm this winter, the Kansas
Department for Children and
Families (DCF) will begin
accepting applications for its
Low Income Energy Assistance
Program (LIEAP) on Tuesday,
Jan. 19.
The frigid temperatures
are here, and many families
are struggling to stay warm,
said DCF Secretary Phyllis
Gilmore. We have LIEAP staff
trained and ready to begin processing applications, so families can afford to heat their
homes.
LIEAP provides an annual benefit to help qualifying
households pay winter heating
bills. Persons with disabilities, older adults and families
with children are the primary
groups assisted. In 2015, nearly
48,000 households received an
average benefit of $412.
To qualify, applicants must
be responsible for direct payment of their heating bills.
Income eligibility requirements are set at 130 percent of
the federal poverty level. The
level of benefit varies according to household income,
number of people living in the
home, type of residence, type of
heating fuel, and utility rates.
Applicants must demonstrate that they have made payments on their heating bill two
out of the last three months.
Those payments must be equal
to or exceed $80 or the total balance due on their energy bills,
whichever is less.
Applications for the program
have been mailed to households
that received energy assistance
last year. LIEAP applications
are also available at local DCF
offices and through partnering
agencies. They can be requested by calling 1-800-432-0043. To
apply online, visit www.lieap.
dcf.ks.gov. More information

Jones reports on legislative session
Hello from Topeka! Much
has changed for me coming into this 2016 Kansas
Legislative session including
getting a new office assistant, being put on Education
Committee, being taken off
of Health & Human Services
Committee, adding Financial
Institution Committee to the
Insurance Committee, and
a baby on-the-way. Its just a
busy start to an already busy
time. In fact, while sitting here
writing, I just got a text from
my wife reminding me to eat
lunch, because I tend to forget.
She knows me too well.
State of the State Address:
The major event from
this first week was the State
of the State Address given
by Governor Brownback.
Although I hoped to get a fresh
KANSAS
LEGISLATURE
By Kevin Jones,
House of Representatives,
5th District
vision for our Kansas Mental
Health System, he did speak
on many issues: Education,
National Guard security,
Refugees, Judicial Selection,
GITMO, Property Tax lid,
Welfare reforms, and Planned
Parenthood. The Governor also
touted that more than 388,000
low income Kansans now pay
zero income taxes, KPERS is
out of the bankruptcy zone,
more than half the people once
on welfare are now off it & getting out of poverty altogether,
technical education participation has tripled, weve consolidated government agencies,
eliminated wasteful programs,
reduced onerous regulations,
wages are up, unemployment
is down, and new businesses
continue to open in Kansas.
Efficiency Report
Another substantial event
that took place was the arrival of the $2.6 Billion efficiency report by Alvarez & Marsal
suggesting 105 ideas to make
our state run more efficiently.
I am confident that many of
these ideas will be beneficial as
we all know there is waste in
government. Most of the suggestions will not provide much
in savings this year, but when
implemented will be helpful in
balancing the budget in years
to come.
January is Kansas Radon Action Month
TOPEKA Kansas Governor
Sam Brownback and the
Kansas Department of Health
and Environment (KDHE) have
proclaimed January Kansas
Radon Action Month to help
educate Kansans about the
dangers of radon exposure and
encourage actions to identify
and address radon problems in
the home.
Radon is a tasteless, odorless,
colorless, naturally occurring
radioactive gas found in nearly all soils which comes from
the breakdown of uranium.
Outdoors, radon is diluted to low
concentrations, but once inside
an enclosed space, radon can
accumulate to significant levels.
Radon is the first leading cause of lung cancer in
non-smokers and the second
leading cause in smokers.
Nationally, radon causes 21,000
lung cancer deaths each year.
About one out of every three
radon measurements performed in Kansas are elevated, being above 4 pCi/l (picoCuries per liter). Some areas
have higher levels than others,
though elevated levels of radon
have been detected in every
county in the state. As many as
one in 15 homes across the U.S.
has elevated radon levels that
often go undetected because of
a lack of testing.
Inexpensive radon test
kits are available year round
at local hardware and builders supply stores and at your
Kansas county extension office.
The tests that reveal high levels can be fixed with reliable
and effective radon reduction
techniques completed by a
certified radon professional.
Homeowners should talk with
a certified radon contractor
if levels of 4 pCi/l or above
are detected. The cities of
Topeka, Manhattan, Lawrence,
Salina and Junction City have
building codes that require
new homes to be built using
radon-resistant techniques.
Additional
information
about radon and a list of certified radon contractors is available at www.kansasradonprogram.org. Additional information is also available by calling
the Kansas Radon Hotline at
800-693-KDHE (800-693-5343).

AC girls topple Chargers
GARNETT – The Bulldogs
used a strong start to pace
themselves in a solid 45-33 victory at home over the Santa Fe
Trail Chargers.
Anderson County jumped
out on top early 9-5 and
stretched their advantage to
23-12 at intermission, in large
part due to a strong showing
in the second period.
Santa Fe Trail played a
better second half but just
couldnt make a serious run
to get back into the game
with the Bulldogs. Both teams
scored 13 points in the third
period before the Bulldogs
edged the Charger 10-8 in the
fourth to close out the victory.

Bulldog boys comeback bid falls short
GARNETT AC tried to shake
off an ice-cold start Friday
night but fell just short in a
crushing 35-33 loss to Santa Fe
Trail.
The Chargers opened up in
command early and earned a
16-2 cushion in the first period.
Chase Ratliff scored the only
two points of the period for
AC. Nick Levy helped keep
Anderson County in the game
in the second quarter by scoring seven points. The Bulldogs
chipped one point off the deficit
in the period, but SFT still held
on 26-13 at the half.
AC outpaced the Chargers
10-5 to nearly cut the halftime deficit in half, 30-23 in
the third period, but Garnett
just couldnt overcome the first
period deficit.

Viking girls win defensive battle
RICHMOND – In a game that
wasnt going to please the
offensive-minded fans, the
Central Heights girls downed
the Osawatomie Trojans 27-12.
The two teams played a
tight first half with the Vikings
jumped out 8-4 after the first
period and the Trojans topping
the second 6-5 to cut the Vikes
half time lead to 13-10.
Amazingly
enough,
Osawatomie would go on to just
score 4 more points the rest of
the game. Central Heights doubled them up in the third quarter 4-2 as both teams struggled
to put the ball in the bucket.
Heading into the fourth
quarter with a 17-12 lead, it
felt much larger with the pace
the game was playing at. The
Vikings blew open the game
late as they played solid
defense in a 10-2 decisive fourth
quarter.

How to make a
fast, sloppy buck
In this column weve
explored a lot of studies and
research data on customer reactions to various stimulus you as
a business can control things
like aroma, lighting, motion
and compelling displays all
can have a positive or negative
affect on customers and determine if and how much they
buy; even if they will return.
But one weve never talked
about is slop.
Slop can have a magnetic
effect, especially if your store
or office is typically neat and
tidy. In the same way a place
looks neat when you clean it
up after its been messy a while
(think your garage), others can
also grab attention when you
slop them up.
Theres something about
a heap of stuff that makes us
think theres something cool
there, and its probably cheap
because its probably been
there forever and is now heaped
up for quick clearance. Think of
auctions few things are more
enticing to collectors or antique
dealers than table after table of
stuff. Weve all seen someone
find an item at an auction in a
pile of mess and wait the rest
of the day for the auctioneer to
roll up to sell it.
And what about those vintage DVD movie or compact
disc bins at major discount
stores everything piled up
and for sale for $5. Works every
time.
So stack it up; pile it up preferably where drive by traffic
can see; use card tables or better yet use the tailgates of a
couple of pickup trucks with
2x12s between them to make a
long table. The more disheveled
the better, and pile it high with
everything youve got. Set large
items on the ground or in the
center of the table to accent
them. Pile smaller items every-

where else.
Dont stack things neatly
skew them willy-nilly and cattywampus. Dont bother setting
the main front of the packaging forward. Use your regular
inventory; use leftovers from
your stock room. If you bare
your shelves inside to stack the
mess outside, it will be worth
the work of restocking less
inventory later.
And price tags? Use colored
dots like you see at garage sales,
and knock off the $ for some
odd reason just putting -50 on
an item looks more like a fire
sale.
You may sprinkle discounts
here and there, but leave most
of the items at full mark up. It
wont matter. Just dont advertise a Huge Sale that assumes
discounts dont advertise anything at all just pile up the
stuff!
Like anything you can over
do this, and if youre outside
there may be restrictions in
your city or locale that set time
limits. But the savvy use of
strategic slop will help you sell
stuff.

Mike Burns, AuBurn Pharmacy
receive Southeast Kansas
Invested in People award
GARNETT – Mike Burns, President
and CEO and his company, AuBurn
Pharmacy, were honored at the annual
dinner of Southeast Kansas, Inc. held in
Iola on January 12, 2016, by receiving the

March 23, 1992 when Burns purchased
Kingsolver Pharmacy and has grown
substantially year after year for the past
23 years. AuBurn currently employees
159 team members.
Per the Citys nomination, The one
thing that stands out through each of
the transitions noted in the timeline of

current employees (save jobs) during
acquisition and to ultimately add jobs.
Additionally, Mike Burns has other
business ventures, including a real
estate division at AuBurns corporate

instrumental in a number of community
successes, not only in Anderson County
but Linn County as well.

When you come to that
Make it A win-win conversation fork in the road, take it
You may recall that Im
writing a series of articles
about communication and
healthy relationships. My last
article discussed the importance of taking a time out
during a heated conversation
to avoid using our angry
brains instead of our rationale, thinking brains to handle conflict and communicate.
Once youve taken a time
out and are back to your
calm, thinking brain you
can begin using the speaker-listener technique to talk
through a problem or issue.
The speaker-listener technique is simple; one person
speaks while the other listens.
It sounds simple, but our natural reaction is to think about
our response, interrupt and
disagree. We dont truly listen. Listening means to hear
what the speaker is saying
well enough to be able to
paraphrase what he/she said.
Paraphrasing means to put
what you heard in your own
EXTENSION NEWS
REBECCA MCFARLAND, Frontier Extension District
words. It feels unnatural and
slow, but its the only way to
ensure the listener is effectively listening and not distracted by thinking about his/
her response.
Its important for the speaker to keep these things in
mind:
1. Stay on one topic at a
time. Dont throw everything
but the kitchen sink in!
2. Speak for yourself. Dont
mind read You dont care,
you did this, you said that . . .
3. Dont go on and on. Make
a couple of statements and
then pause to give the listener
an opportunity to paraphrase
what you said.
4. After your partner paraphrases what he/she heard
you say, indicate verbally or
by using some body language
that he or she understood correctly what you were trying to
say.
Rules for the listener
include:
1. Do not disagree, give
your side, interrupt or try to
solve the problem.
2. Try to understand what
your partner is saying.
3. Paraphrase back what
you hear. So what I hear you
saying is . . . .
4. Ask questions to clarify if
needed. You can say, I dont
understand. Can you try again
to explain it?
Again, the speaker-listener
technique doesnt come naturally, so you will have to
practice it. Practice it when
you dont need it, when youre
not in a heated argument. If
you have a hard time allowing
each other time to speak, use
an object (stress ball, pen, etc.)
that you can pass back and
forth as you speak. The person
with the object is the person
who has the floor.
If the other person has
never heard of the speaker-listener technique or refuses to
use it, you can say, Lets stop
and try again. How about I
just listen and see if I understand what youre saying?
Or, I want to understand
your point of view but its
hard with us both talking
over each other. Then give
the speaker a cut sign or
ask if he or she can pause for a
second so you can understand
and paraphrase what he/she
just said. After listening for a
while, ask him/her to switch
and listen to you. If necessary,
ask him/her to tell you what
he/she heard you saying.
Happy practicing!

homes and cities and out into
a wilderness where they might
meet God. John appealed to
the downtrodden, the weak and
sick and the discontented. The
Pharisees and Sadducees did
not like Johns message as it
was a painful jab at a society
that was hungry to acquire
material objects.
I came across this quote from
Leon Morris which I believe
characterizes the situation then
and now. Left to ourselves
we do not wish to leave our
state of untroubled sinfulness.
It is only because God first convicts us and enables us that we
can make even the motion of
wanting to turn from our sins.
Johns message to the Jews was
that they would be purged and
rejected unless they demonstrated the fruits of repentance.
God convicts me and he has or
will convict you. It is through
this conviction that he brings
us to repentance.
The writer to the Hebrews
issues a warning in Hebrews
3:8a as follows; Today if you
hear his voice do not harden
your hearts. By repentance
one turns away from sin; by
faith one turns toward God in
accepting the Lord Jesus Christ.
When you come to that fork in
the road, you will know, take it.
It is necessary for entrance into
the kingdom.

When John the Baptist
walked out of the desert onto
the pages of scripture his message was very simple. It was a
call to moral renewal, baptism
and a messianic hope. When
John arrived in approximately
A. D. 28-29 he met a people who
were either of an elite group or
impoverished. During the 400
silent years between the New
and the Old Testament there
had been no word from God.
Through John God began a new
work among a most unprepared
people.
During the silent years sects
developed. One of the Most powerful sects was a group called
the Pharisees. The Pharisees
were a religious and political
group known for insisting that
the law of God be observed as
the scribes interpreted it. Due
to corruption in the Jerusalem
priesthood many people had
lost confidence and respect
for the priests and it resulted
in many people following the
leading of the Pharisees rather
than the priests. The Pharisees
observed the law carefully as
far as appearances went but
their hearts were far from God.
Another group that had
developed during this period was the Sadducees. They
were the leading families of the
nation, the priests, merchants
and aristocrats. Many of the
wealthy lay people were also
Sadducees. They wanted to preserve things just as they were.
They managed to get along well
under Roman rule. Any movement that might upset order
and authority was bound not to
appeal to them.
John called the people away
from the comforts of their

humble in doing for others
before yourself.

K-State launches app to track progress
Wills named to Deans
on diagnostic samples for animal patients Honor Roll at FHSU

results are now within touch
at the Kansas State Veterinary
Diagnostic Laboratory
thanks to the launch of a brandnew app for mobile devices.
The lab anticipates the new app
will improve customer service
and efficiency at delivering
results to veterinarians across
the country.
Gary Anderson, director of
the Kansas State Veterinary
Diagnostic Laboratory in the
College of Veterinary Medicine
at Kansas State University,
said the new app is a significant step forward in helping to
deliver results.
This is a major advancement in being able to provide
diagnostics to practicing veterinarians out in the field,
Anderson said. Traditionally,
we have used a variety of methods of delivery, from snail mail,
telephone, fax and email. This
app will give veterinarians a
way to track the results as soon
as they are received here in
the lab. It will save time for
everyone involved and is a real
win-win for veterinarians and
their clients who are seeking
the best in medical care for
their animals.
Gregg Hanzlicek, director of
production animal field investigations for the Kansas State
Diagnostic Laboratory, said
that the app was specifically
designed to meet client needs.
We meet with so many of
our veterinarians at conferences and events, and they have
really prompted the demand to
get results quicker and more
easily, Hanzlicek said. Were
very excited we were able to
figure out a way to merge the
technology in our lab with the
type of programming needed
to create this type of an app for
mobile devices. Were breaking new ground because there
wasnt really anything else like
this for us to emulate. Were
fortunate to have the right peo-
ple in our college to develop
the application and test it for
reliability.
Justin Wiebers is the director
of client connections in the
College of Veterinary Medicine.
We studied what our veterinarians needed and looked
at how the best mobile apps in
other areas delivered on those
types of needs, Wiebers said.
Then our programmers here
in the college went to work.
Wiebers said push notifications are sent to veterinarians
when their samples arrive in
the lab and when their test
results are ready. The veterinarians can then view and
share those results wherever
they happen to be working.
Its a very intricate system to get information from
our diagnostic lab database
to the individual clients who
are using a variety of Android,
iPhone, and iPad devices, he
said. Were very excited to
