Hospital fate hinges on vote
County, ACH officers
prepare for spring
vote on new facilities
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Without a new
facility, Anderson County could
lose its hospital, county government and hospital leaders said
last week.
Thats not a threat to scare
voters into approving a bond
issue that could top $26 million,
officials said. Thats the reality of what could happen if the
current six-decade old building
fails, they say.
An engineering study found
it would cost more to fix infrastructure problems at the current facility than to construct
a new one, and some of the
problems with the present
building may be impossible to
solve. If structural problems
like concrete encased plumbing, vintage electrical circuitry,
roof problems and cracks in
the foundation arent resolved,
Saint Lukes Health System
could pull out of its lease agreement with the county to provide medical services and staff.
Finding a new service provider
would be difficult without an
updated building, officials said.
Anderson
County
Commissioners
and
the
Anderson County Hospital
Board of Trustees met last
week to discuss a bond issue
likely to appear on the April
ballot. Although details including final costs continue to be
hammered out, its likely the
bond issue will ask voters to
approve more than $26 million
to build a new hospital and
long-term care unit. Under a
new lease agreement, St. Lukes
would then increase its annual
lease payment from $440,000 to
$1.024 million in order to help
the hospital make its bond
payments. Its expected the
county would be expected to
pay about $375,000 per year for

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY Four years worth of
plans to improve Colonys sewer
system likely will be given a
boost if the city receives a $1.003
million USDA loan and grants.
City officials are applying for
the loan to pay for improvements to the citys sanitation
system. The process started
about four years ago and the
city received a grant last year
for $274,000 toward the project,
with the city paying another
$274,000. The loan would wrap
the citys portion into a larger
project for a total cost of about
$1.003 million, with the city
expected to pay about half, or
$503,000. The city increased its
sewer usage cost Jan. 1, 2012,
adding an extra $1.25 per gallon to cover the loan. The loan
application typically is a formality, and work is expected
to begin on the project within
weeks.
The city has battled problems with its sanitation system
for several years. While many
cities now are fighting settling
problems caused by drought,
it actually was a rainy season
several years ago that brought
Colonys problems to light.
Rain and runoff filtered into
the citys sanitation system, and

Dudley Feuerborn served as an Anderson County commissioner for 24 years.
Feuerborn recalls challenges, highlights of terms
Listening, cooperation
valued by longtime
county commissioner
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT
Dudley
Feuerborn learned an
important lesson not long
after he first took office
as an Anderson County
Commissioner more than 20
years ago.
A bridge east of Garnett
had burned and needed
to be replaced, but a land-
owner was opposed to the
countys plans for a new
bridge. Feuerborn decided
to talk with the man, hoping to avoid a lengthy legal
battle for the right-of-way.
Feuerborn met with the man
weekly, learned why the man
was against the bridge and
found a way to resolve the
problem. The man signed a
right-of-way agreement and
the bridge – now known as
the Hiner bridge – was built.
The man and Feuerborn
became better friends after
the incident.
Thats when Feuerborn
learned how important it is
for public leaders to listen.
No matter what the issue
is, it can usually be resolved
if the parties sit down and
communicate, he said.
That lesson still rings true
at the end of Feuerborns 24
years as county commissioner. He decided not to run for
re-election last November,
and a retirement party was
held in his honor Monday.
The decision to retire from
public office actually was
made a couple years ago but
has roots even farther, back
in 2000, Feuerborn said. In
the 2000 election, Feuerborn
lost his long-held seat to his
cousin, Bill Craig, in a narrow election. At the time,
Feuerborn had been in office
16 years. His goal was to
serve 20 years, so Feuerborn
ran for the seat again in 2004
and won. He ran again in
2008, but decided soon after
that he would not run again.
Now 71, Feuerborn said he
wants to spend time traveling, especially taking motorcycle trips. He enjoys visiting
historic places like museums

Unemployment holds steady across region
State reports strong
job growth in last
month of 2012
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Unemployment
remained steady for most of
the region in December, while
the state marked the strongest
month of job growth for the
year according to labor statistics released Friday.
Unemployment in Anderson
County was 6.0 percent in
December, up slightly from
Novembers rate of 5.9 but significantly lower than the same
month last year. In December
2011, unemployment was 7.1
percent.
Statewide, unemployment
was 5.4 percent, unchanged
from November and down from
6.4 percent in December 2011.
December marks the strongest month of job growth since
January and ends 2012 on a
strong note, Tyler Tenbrink,
Senior Labor Economist, said.
This increase made up for
the losses in the prior three
months, putting the state back
on the longer term trend of
positive but slow job growth.
Over the course of 2012,
Kansas added 13,800 nonfarm
jobs and 13,200 private sector
jobs. Six of the major industries
also reported job gains since
one year ago. Professional and
business services added 9,700
jobs, an increase of 6.3 percent.
Manufacturing gained 3,900

and forts. He also is a member
of volunteer groups like the
Optimists, and would like to
help the fair board determine
how to make the county fair
viable again. He also occasionally helps his son at Feuerborn
Family Funeral Home, the family business he ran for many
years.
Growing up, Feuerborn
always was interested in county
government. His father served
as a county commissioner
from 1948 to 1952. Feuerborn
has lived on the family farm
all his life, moving just a few
feet away when he built a new
house on the land. When he
first decided to run for office in
1984, Feuerborn simply wanted
to serve his community. He was
not motivated by any particular
issue and had no ax to grind,
he said.
But the transition from
business owner to public figure wasnt easy. It was quite an
adjustment to work as part of
a three-person board subject to
the will of the people, compared
to being the sole decision maker
for his company.
But thanks to lessons learned
early, such as with the Hiner
bridge problem, Feuerborn is
satisfied with his years of service.
That doesnt mean it was
easy, of course. There are things
Feuerborn wishes he had done
differently, especially concerning the building of a new jail in
the late 2000s. Many aspects of
the jail project could have been
handled better, Feuerborn said.
In particular, the county should
have had more oversight of the
project from the beginning, and
should have been paying closer
attention to the construction, he
said. The jail has faced several
problems over the years, such
as electrical issues, that could
have been avoided in the initial
stages of construction, he said.
On the other hand, some early
but controversial decisions
turned out well, like the jails
location and the ability to pay
off part of the bonds by renting
beds to other counties.
In his 24 years of service, there
are many accomplishments
Feuerborn recalled proudly.
The stability of the countys
workforce likely is thanks to an
equitable pay system and salary
committee adopted by commissioners several years ago. The
countys road and bridge crew
handles hundreds of miles of
county roads, which Feuerborn
said is one of the biggest challenges faced by commissioners.
Most of all, Feuerborn is proud
of the way county commissioners learned to work with other
governmental entities, particularly the City of Garnett. When
he first took office, the city and
county did not always get along,
particularly when it came to
law enforcement. Thanks to
training provided by the state,
Feuerborn learned techniques
that helped him and other
leaders improve relationships.
Since the late 1980s, the county
and city commissioners meet
regularly to keep each other
abreast of local issues. There
have been several projects that
couldnt have been completed
without their cooperation, such
as improvements to the fair
grounds, projects to improve
streets, and the formation of
a joint economic development
group. Improvements to the
county courthouse, such as a
new roof and weatherproofing
the basement, also make his list
of proudest accomplishments
because it helped preserve the
historic courthouse – the centerpiece of the countys business.
Feuerborn also served leadership positions in state groups
such as the Kansas Association
of Counties, and developed connections across the state that
have helped Anderson County
in various ways.
Because of the four years
when Feuerborn lost his seat,
he knows what retirement
from county government feels
like. Hell miss it, but eventu-
gun guys
2×2
ally he will adapt to life outside
of public office.
After a while you get that all
out of your head and enjoy the
time,Feuerborn said.
The commission will continue to face challenges with
several controversial issues on
the horizon, such as a continuing recession, ever-increasing
costs for supplies such as fuel,
and a proposal to build a new
hospital.
Either a community is
green and growing or dead
and dying, he said. Keeping
Anderson County growing was
always one of my goals. Its not
as prosperous as it once was,
but hopefully it can be again.

followed the vehicle and made contact
with the driver. He stated that McMahan
was unsure what had happened. The
deputy then responded to a location on
Cochran making contact with McMahan
at his residence, noting major damage to
the front hood area and bumper. Based
on McMahan testimony, he was traveling
westbound on Cochran when he was
struck by another truck. McMahan was
advised that he had failed to yield at the

which translates to a property
tax increase of about $60 per
year on a $100,000 valued home.
Those figures are preliminary
estimates and could change.
The county owns the hospital
and leases it to Saint Lukes
health system, which has provided staff and medical services
for about 17 years under the
lease and operations agreement. But the current building
was constructed in 1949 with
renovations in 1968 and 2000
and faces numerous infrastructure issues. An independent
engineering firm found it likely
would cost about $15 million to
fix some of the problems, and
some repairs would be very difficult or impossible. For example, the hospitals basement
is built on bedrock. Inside the
building, a drop-down ceiling
provides only about 18 inches
between the ceiling and roof.
There isnt enough room to
lower the ceiling in order to add
space on a second floor, and it
would be difficult to impossible
to dig under the bedrock to add
basement space. That means
any new equipment, particularly heating and air conditioning
equipment, must be installed
on the roof. The building and its
roof may not be able to handle
the weight of such equipment.
Inside the building, offices
and exam rooms are crammed
into any available space, including the dark and dank basement
with its low ceiling and exposed
pipes.
The stark reality of the
infrastructure problem has
convinced Anderson County
Commissioner Jim Johnson,
a former administrator of the
hospital, that a new building
is the countys only option. By
building a new facility, part of
the bonds could be paid by revenue from the lease agreement
with St. Lukes; without their
help, the county would be stuck
with repair bills and could lose
health care services.
Im concerned about this. I
want to see our county continue
to be serviced by a hospital.
Its part of the reason a lot of
people, particularly people my
age, retired here. Its part of
our fabric, Johnson said. Its
essential if were going to maintain a balanced community.
Even though Johnson said he
agrees a new building is needed,
it will be a tough sell to the public. The county, like the rest of
the country, continues to battle
a recession. Industry is scarce
in Anderson County, made even
more difficult by the loss of
three companies and their 70
jobs in the past two years or so.
Property owners are paying off
bonds for a new jail constructed
in late 2008 and a new elementary school in Garnett which
opened last August. In addition
to those financial concerns are
questions about the fate of the
health care industry, which is
facing new national regulations
by 2014.
Yet despite those concerns,
hospital administrator Denny
Hachenberg said he believes
voters will approve the new hospital.
We have a compelling
story to tell,Hachenberg said.
Once people understand what
it means to them and how we
arrived at those figures, if they
know all that and still dont support it I will be very surprised.
Hachenberg did not want to
discuss specific plans or cost
estimates until final details had
been worked out. The hospitals
board of trustees will meet Jan.
28 to address some of those
details, and the countys bond
counsel was working to develop
a ballot question that is expected to be completed by the end of
the month or early February.
After that, hospital supporters will have only a couple
of months to roll the project
out to voters. County commissioners Johnson and Eugene
Highberger said they were
impressed with efforts to build
the new elementary school, and
suggested hospital officials follow a similar model. In that
instance, a series of town hall
meetings helped address questions and concerns, but the process took several months and
was organized by a grassroots
committee of supporters.
The new facility would
increase ACHs surgical capacity to two suites and expand the
specialty clinics. It would construct eight in-patient rooms
to do away with existing privacy problems, among other
improvements.
If the new facility is built, the
lease agreement with St. Lukes
would span 10 years. At the end
of that time, its possible St.
Lukes could continue with a
new lease. Even if St. Lukes
were to decide not to continue,
the county would have a modern facility to use in negotiations with another health care
system, Johnson said. Without a
modern facility, it would be difficult to convince another provider to take over health care
services, he said.
The only question is, Is this
the right thing for Anderson
County? I certainly believe it
is, Johnson said.

Concealed carry permit

is required to get

by Dane Hicks,

PUBLISHER
the Presidents
new initiative on gun control last week
was no doubt playing in the background, a handful of those new permit holders we talked with last week
werent taking the class out of some
threat that concealed carry might be
banned (so far no one has mentioned
that). They wanted the right to carry
concealed weapons, instead, because
the slaughter of more than 20 elementary children in Connecticut re-awakened them to the fact that there are bad
people out there.
Even though the relationship isnt
direct, however, the new concealed
carry permit holders dont live in a vacuum and neither does anyone else in
our country. Firearms enthusiasts and
2nd Amendment cherishers have been
buying up semi-auto rifles, accessories
and ammunition in the past month like
they were going out of style because
their fear has been that since guns are
the easiest target in the debate spawned
by the Sandy Hook massacre, President
Obama would seek the quickest political points in doing something about
gun violence and start a nationwide
federal clamp down on guns.
The rhetoric and the maybe-justified paranoia among gun lovers has
yet to be fulfilled by federal effort, and
the president tells us a door-to-door
canvass by jack booted federal thugs in
search of our guns wont be forthcoming. While the Biden task force on gun
violence recommended the banning of
assault weapons (whatever an assault
weapon really is?), most of its subsequent recommendations were for more
bureaucracy and study easily countered in the future and not very effective at removing gun rights.
At its worst, the Biden task force fell
heir to the tunnel vision of nearly every
task force that is assembled after some
tragic event to find answers. While
Sandy Hook was a national heartbreak,
a broader assessment of gun violence
in America was and is still warranted;
one that addresses urban gun violence
and the predominance of gun violence
among impoverished ethnic and minority communities which account for the
lions share of American violent crime..
A task force that refuses to address
racial, criminal and economic factors
in its assessment of gun violence on a
national scale hasnt done its job.
In truth, America can live without
military assault weapons, the same
way it can live with a little less freedom
speech, a little less voting rights or a
little less speedy or less impartial jury.
But taken on the whole, outside the
specific horror of a single event, do we
want to?
The argument will go on, and the
truth is the back and forth matters
very little to the new class of concealed
carry permit holders. They have looked
beyond the endless argument to the
practical reality: they simply plan to
protect themselves and their families
when the law cannot.
I agree with our local publisher for questioning the wisdom of the tourism committee in outsourcing a $10,000 brochure

Government shouldnt
ignore its own laws
BY DOUG ANSTAETT
KANSAS PRESS ASSOCIATION
A prevailing argument among
Republicans today is that government has
simply become too large.
It must be reined in.
We couldnt agree
more. So this year, we are
going to adopt the mantra
that, yes, government has
become too large, it has
become unresponsive to
the public and downright
arrogant about its imporAnstaett
tance.
Of course, some of our
reasons for believing this arent about lowering taxes and reducing regulations. No,
our reasons are these:
When government gets so large that it
can ignore its own laws, it has become too
large.
When government can place burdensome costs on the peoples right to know by
jacking up the charges for retrieving what
is rightfully the peoples property public
records, for instance the government
has become too large.
And when government can thumb its
nose at its own law enforcement and legal
system because it doesnt like a particular
court decision, government has become
too large.
Government has three branches: executive, legislative and judicial. They are all
designed to provide checks and balances to
each other. The press is there to provide a
check on all three.
The Kansas Press Association is pursuing legislative changes this year that are
simply designed to force government to do
what it is supposed to do under the law.
We shouldnt have to do this, but weve
been forced to do it by government officials
who believe essentially that they are above
the law.
We have reporters who are trying to
fulfill the watchdog role that is so important to our democracy.
Yet, those reporters are met at every
turn by public servants who have forgotten the meaning of the phrase.
Why do we have a Kansas Open Records
Act if access to those public records being
sought by reporters or private citizens
comes only when accompanied by deep
pockets or a huge checkbook?
KORA cannot fulfill its purpose if public officials are allowed to gouge the public
and press every time someone seeks a
peek at the records of what government is
doing.
Taxpayers already pay the salaries of
every government employee. One of the
duties under the law is for those employees
to create public documents to record what
has been done. We pay for the paper and
computers those public records are printed or stored upon and we pay for the file
cabinets and computer networks that store
them. We pay for the electricity to keep the
rooms comfortable and for the chairs and
desks used by those staff members.
Why, then, should we have to pay anything other than nominal costs for access
to those records?
Senate Bill 10 has been filed by new
Pittsburg Republican Sen. Jake LaTurner.
The bill would eliminate 95 percent of the
frivolous charges made today by government officials when records are sought.
Mr. LaTurner, of course, will be told he is
naive. He will hear from the governmentpaid lobbyists who represent the cities,
counties, school boards and other public
bodies that this bill would create unimaginable burdens for those government workers.
The taxpayer-funded lobbyists will
try to convince legislators that they must
charge for records or risk being inundated
with frivolous requests for access.
And theyll argue that the cost of doing
all that research for citizens and the press
will be impossible to fund from their puny
office budgets, what with all the budgetcutting going on.
I hope Mr. LaTurner and others will
meet those crocodile tears with a reality
check.
Government has become too large, and
it must become a servant of the people
again.
Doug Anstaett is executive director of
the Kansas Press Association.

Hi, I read in the paper a while back that
the City of Garnett will be this years
business of the year award winner. How
is that? Is the city a business? Does the
city take its products and services out
into the market every day and fight competitors and all other forms of problems
in order to try to make a profit and make
a living? No, the city has the legal power
to take your tax money and seize your
property if you wont pay. Theres no
competition for city utilities- you have
to pay or get shut off- however the city
has been in lots of lawsuits to make the
gas companies open their pipelines to
competitors because it wasnt fair to the
city not to have any competition to buy
from. This deal with printing our own
city brochure in Salina of all places and
ignoring the local printers, well that just
takes the cake. Business of the year? Not
in my opinion.
In response to the individuals complaint in the Phone Forum section dated
January 15 regarding not being able to
wear short shirts to show off our middle
and no short shorts to show off the wiggle
in our rear end, let me ask you to stand
back and take a good sincere look at the
decline of morals in this country. Where
do you think this decline comes from?
Now, I grant you, this is only one of the
phases of the cause. But we have to start
someplace to get this nation back on
track as a good, decent minded and moral
country. Cover your body and clear your
mind. Thank you.
To that blooming idiot that dont like the
way our high school dance team dresses.
Apparently you have never been to a KU
game and seen how their dance team
dresses, because those girls have no morals of any kind.
I think its silly for people to complain
that city employees get free membership
to the rec facilities. Whats wrong with
promoting healthy living habits? I think
its a great perk. Most employers provide
some kind of perk for their employees.
Besides Ill bet less than half of them take
advantage of this. City employees, please
correct me if I am wrong on this. Id love
to hear the numbers. Thank you.
Third graders should know how to read
Every now and again theres an idea
that sounds good in the Statehouse,
makes sense to a lot of Kansans, and
turns into a tiger once it gets out of the
Statehouse.
This read-by-third-grade proposal of
Gov. Sam Brownback appears to be one
of those. A good ideathat you have to
wonder how it is going to be received out
across the state.
Kansans want their children, or their
childrens children, or even the neighbor
children to grow up and get good jobs
and start families and all of that. The
American, err…Kansas way of life.
For a good part of that idyllic future
we hope for, Kansans need to be able to
read.
Brownback says third grade is the
bright yellow line for reading.
Dont wait for anyone substantial to
show up at legislative hearings to testify
in opposition to the idea.
The test will come when parents get
the note from the school that says their
child isnt advancing to fourth grade
because the child cant read well.
Imagine the social stigma…the innocent question at the office or the neighborhood picnic, when you say, Billy is
going into, what…the fourth grade next
year?
by Martin Hawver
KANSAS STATEHOUSE COLUMNIST
Thats when parents are going to come
unglued. And, with a little luck, they
wont find anyone in state government
who will take their complaint seriously.
Brownback said the third grade break
point is important because if the state
allows kids to get much older, say, seventh grade, then they have probably lost
a lot of chances to learn between third
and seventh grade. Delay the reading
proficiency test until high school, and
some kids will just drop out before getting that important high school diploma.
We do a lot of things in school before
third grade, but this very simply makes
teaching reading the most important
thing we have to do. There are a lot of
things you do in kindergarten, and the
early grades. But: This is the one thing
you have to do.
It puts pressure on the system, but
thats what I am trying to do, Brownback
said.
That progression through grades is
important to parents, and with a little
luck, and an ironclad (with exceptions,
of course, for children with learning disabilities, or who are new to the English
language) third grade rule, parents may
spend a little more time reading with
their kids, maybe testing them at home
by having them read a few newspaper
stories.
The progression to fourth grade
reflects on the parents and may be a key
to making it work.
Other states have done this, but its
new for Kansas and it is going to become
at test of how much Kansans want the
state to grow and prosper.
And…at least at the third grade level,
all the kids are about the same size.

Are all soils created equal? Nice weather leads to dig
These past 2 years of low
to no rainfall has been a trying time for everyone involved
with agriculture. Ponds are
low to non-existent, grass has
suffered and livestock herds
have been reduced due to the
harsh conditions. Farmers and
ranchers are trying to preserve
their livelihoods by just getting
by. Hopefully soon, we can get
some rains. Currently, everyone is desperately trying to preserve the natural resources that
we have been given- water, air
and soil. This article is based
on learning more about soil and
answer the question of Are All
Soils Created Equal?
Some soil items that I have
learned are that Coffey County
has 41 different soil types;
Anderson County has 52 different soil types and Linn County
has 34 different soil types. Just
in these 3 counties there are 127
different soil types! I knew that
there were different types of
soil from the heavy packed clay
(in the upland area) to the looser soils-verdigris (around the
streams and rivers). I did not
realize all of the in between
soils. I kind of took soil for
granted, like a lot of people do.
Kind of like what I have heard
before-Well, my grandpa had it
(soil) and I had it (soil), so youll
have it (soil). I knew that we
needed soil, but did not realize
how important soil is to everything. I mean everything!
Whether you have the heavy
packed clay to the looser soil,
we need to take care of what we
have. Because, I now know that
I did not get the topsoil that my
grandpa had; and so the topsoil
that I have now may not be
there for my grandkids. Lets
dig in.
I searched the internet to
find the meaning of soil. The
results-Soil is the loose material that covers the land surfaces of Earth and supports the
growth of plants as stated in
the Soil Encyclopedia Article
found on MSN Encarta. Soil is
a combination of inorganic and
organic materials. The inorganic particles in soil are the
non-living particles such as
pieces of rocks and minerals
that have broken down gradually by weather, chemical action
or other natural processes. The
organic particles are the decaying matter from plants, animals
and the many tiny life forms
that live in the soil.
As all of us know soils vary
from place to place. Some of
the factors that come in to play
are the chemical composition
and physical structure of soil at
any designated location. There
are different rocks, minerals
and other geologic materials
from which the soil originally
was formed from that play a
role. Also, the various kinds
of plants or vegetation that
grow or grew are important.
Topography or whether the terrain or lay of the land is steep,
flat or a combination can also
be factors. You have to take into
consideration the human activity such as farming or building
which causes disruption in the
landscape. Soils can also differ
in color, texture, types of plants
they support and their chemical makeup.
What makes up soil? We
talked about what is contained
in soil-inorganic and organic
particles: rocks, minerals and
plant and animal material.
The inorganic or mineral component of the soil is made up
of particles that are less than
0.002 mm in diameter. The
soil particles are divided into
3 main size groups: sand, silt
and clay. Depending upon the
rock materials from which they
came, these assorted mineral
particles release chemicals that
our plants depend upon for survival-potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, sulfur,
iron and manganese.
Organic materials make up
another essential part of soil.
Some of this material comes
from residue of plants such as:
the remains of plant roots deep
in the soil and leaves and materials that fall on the ground. All
of these become part of a cycle
of decomposition and decay,
providing important nutrients
to the soil. To sum it all up,
soil fertility depends on a high
content of organic materials
Did you know that the inorganic and organic particles
make up roughly 50 percent of a

soils volume? Water makes up
20-30% of the soil volume and is
an important transport for the
nutrients to go towards plant
growth. The other 20-30% percent consists of pores or open
areas of various shapes and
sizes. The networks of pores
provide a way for water to travel through the soil, plus allow
for oxygen and other gases to
move freely through the soil.
(Dr. Patricia M. Frazer-What
is soil?) Pores also serve as
passageways for small animals,
room for plant roots to grow
and for water to travel through.
Pores to soil are like veins to
humans.
Did you know that an earthworm can digest 91.25 tons of
food in 1 year? They are a small
part of the little universe that
lives in the soil. Earthworms,
along with mites, millipedes,
centipedes, grubs, termites,
lice, springtails, bacteria, and
fungi help in the break down
or recycle the plant and animal materials. These little
creatures all form a food chain
living off of the plant and animal materials and each other.
That is why all of these little
creatures are important. The
break down of plant and animal materials along with earthworm casings form a darkcolored organic matter known
as humus. Humus is the rich
part of the soil in which plants
can more easily pull their food
from.
Soil takes a long time to develop. For nature to make 1 inch of
topsoil, it can take from 5001,000 years of the break down
of rocks, minerals and decaying
plants and animals. The years
of break down depends upon
how harsh or moderate our
seasons are. Soil is considered
a nonrenewable resource, or a
resource that does not renew
or make new quick enough for
our generation or our grandchildrens generation to use. It
would be our great, great, great,
great, great +12 more greats
-grandchildren that might see
that 1 of added topsoil, if the
formation of soil would take 500
years and the right conditions.
Only 25% of the earth is
made up of land. So, as the
human population grows, the
demand for food increases; this
in turn places a high demand
upon the soil. Deforestation,
over-development, and pollution from chemicals are a few
more of the disruptions and
demands that we, as humans,
place upon our soil.
Erosion is something that we
as humans can do to try to ease
that demand on our soil. We
must try to do as much as possible to control wind and water
erosion. In Kansas, about 190
million tons of Kansas topsoil
are degraded each year through
mans activities. Five tons of
topsoil spread over an acre is
about the thickness of a dime
or 3/32 inch as stated on the
Kansas NRCS Website.
That is where the Anderson
County Conservation District/
NRCS, can assist you with trying to control these problems.
There are several programs
that are available. We have the
Continuous CRP(program) that
can be applied to fields with
a cropping history (will know
more when Farm Bill rules are
finished), which have included
the following practices: field
borders, filter strips, riparian
buffers, shallow water areas,
field windbreaks, contour grass
strips, grassed terraces and
wetland restoration (to name
a few). Our office provides
information and assistance in
laying out terraces and waterways. We provide assistance in
helping livestock producers get
alternative water sources for
their livestock and improving
grassland. We are here to assist
you in controlling erosion.

why should we care?

It cost farmers $17,644,458
to feed the chinch bugs last
year. An entomologist with the
Kansas Agricultural College
estimated the damage done at
that much. And he says unless
there is more severe weather
this winter, and unless the
farmers burn the dead grass
and trash on their farms the
winter hiding places of the bugs
there will be more chinch bugs
to emerge next spring than last.
So far, these insects have passed
the winter weather with little
loss.

The call of the prophet Ezekiel
Weekly
Devotional
The book of Ezekiel is a
prophetic book of the Old
Testament with Symbolic
language much like the book
of Revelation in the New
Testament. Ezekiel was among
the captives taken during the
second Babylonian attack
against Jerusalem in 597 B. C..
Ezekiel was 25 years old at the
time and his prophetic ministry began five years later.
Ezekiel prophesied to the captives who dwelt by the River
Chebar at Tel Abib.
In the first chapter of the
book Ezekiel describes an
amazing vision of God which
came to him at the beginning
of his ministry. Ezekiel relates
as follows, I looked and I saw
a windstorm coming out of the
north-an immense cloud with
flashing lightening and sur-
by David Bilderback
rounded by brilliant light. He
goes on to describe the vision
which included four living
creatures, the heads of which
represent the four realms of
creation. Clearly visible above
these strange creatures was
the likeness of a throne symbolizing the might and power
of God. Ezekiel receives his
call in 2:1. He (God) said to me,
Son of man stand up on your
feet and I will speak to you.
As he spoke, the Spirit came
into me and raised me to my
feet, and I heard him speaking to me. God then directs
Ezekiel on what it is he is to
do. The people to whom I am
sending you are obstinate and
stubborn. Say to them, This
is what the Sovereign LORD
says. And whether they listen
or fail to listen-for they are
a rebellious house-they will
know that a prophet has been
among them. Prior to judgment on the nation of Judah
God wanted these people to
have one last chance to repent
from their idolatry. Ezekiel
then proclaims Gods message
for the nation Israel as well as
for the nations surrounding
the land.
Ezekiel was used mightily of God but he suffered
mightily as well. One of the
saddest notes of his life was
the death of his wife who he
called the desire of his eyes,
during the last siege against
Jerusalem. Ezekiels sadness
at the death of his wife was
to match the grief of God at
the sin of Jerusalem Ezekiel
was commanded not to grieve
her death; he was to steel himself for this tragedy even as
God had prepared himself for
the death of his beloved city.
(Ezekiel 24:15-22)
In future weeks will examine key events in the book of
Ezekiel and the perilous times
in which Ezekiel prophesied.
