Heat wave devastates corn crop
Weekend rain may help
soybeans, but likely
too late for corn
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Last year was a
bad year for corn. This year
may be worse.
Scattered showers Saturday
evening brought some relief to
scorching hot temperatures and
continued drought conditions.
However, most of the countys
corn may be too far gone to
find much benefit from the
rain, Shannon Blocker, K-State
Research & Extension agent for
Anderson County, said.
Most of the countys corn
was devastated by the combination of hot temperatures and
lack of rain. Blocker estimates
90 to 95 percent of the countys
corn crop will be completely
lost or cut for silage. Of the 5
to 10 percent that will be harvested, farmers will find good
prices. But exactly which farmers will benefit from a decent
crop likely depends on when
the crop was planted and if the
area was one of a lucky few to
get occasional spotty showers.
If farmers planted early-matur-
ing varieties of corn early in
the season, its possible that
corn might be worth harvesting, she said.
Its going to be a rough
year, Blocker said.
The rain more likely benefited soybeans, she said. Although
soybeans also have suffered
from heat and drought, its
early enough in the season that
rain could help considerably.
This years winter wheat
crop may turn out to be the
best crop of the year, Blocker
said. Unfortunately, wheat
ranks as the countys third
crop behind corn and soybeans.
A decent wheat crop is better
than nothing, Blocker said, but
still disappointing to farmers
who were counting on corn and
soybeans.
Growing conditions were
more promising early this
spring. A good combination of
warm temperatures and rain at
the right time helped get crops
off to a good start. But temperatures kept climbing to the
upper 90s and 100s throughout
much of June, with little measurable rain.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Three Garnett residents are facing criminal drug
charges after a drug bust last

Last-minute plan
to save building
appears to be dead
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Demolition of
Garnett Elementary Center,
formerly the Garnett High
School, was expected to
begin this week.
School board members
approved spending about $1
million in costs to demolish
the old school, except for
the Ray Meyer Gymnasium
and three attached classrooms. That part would be
renovated, which accounts
for most of the expenses.
A last-ditch effort to save
the school was proposed
by a Garnett couple and
Kansas City developer, but
no one discussed the proposal at Thursdays school
board meeting. Instead,
school board members
voted to proceed with demolition starting Monday.
Crews likely will spend
the first part of this week
preparing the site for demolition. City utility crews
removed power poles and
wires Friday.
The total hard costs of
the project were approved
at $843,460. That includes
demolition of the main campus and a newer addition on
the northwest. Demolition
costs will be about $108,070.
The remaining $735,390
is the cost of renovating the
Ray Meyer Gym and three
classrooms just north of the
gym. Those classrooms last
year were the library, Mrs.
Brownriggs classroom and
Mrs. Grahams classroom.
When the main campus is
demolished, it will leave
the area with those classrooms exposed. Contractors

on air conditioners and other
cooling systems. Temperatures
the last two weeks stayed in
the 90s or low 100s until brief
rain showers Saturday night
brought some relief to the area.
Temperatures were expected to
be in the upper 80s or low 90s
this week.
Its too early to know just
how much electricity use
increased, City Manager Joyce
Martin said Friday. She wont
know that until reports are generated at the end of this month.
However, staff keep a close eye
on customer usage and have
seen increased usage compared
to this time last year, Martin
said.
Because of hot temperatures
throughout the Midwest, electricity supplier KCP&L wasnt
able to generate enough electricity to serve all its customers.
That means cities like Garnett
may be asked to generate power
at its utility station. Garnett
was asked to generate electricity two days last week, run-

SENTENCE…
FROM PAGE 1A
Bailey gave birth to her
son April 2, 2011, in her car
between Iola and LeRoy. She left
the baby unattended in her car
for several hours until he died.
Later, she agreed to turn the
babys body over to his paternal
grandfather, who told her he
would bury the body. Instead,
the grandfather, Jack Geisler
of Iola, turned the babys body
over to the Colony city marshal
after meeting Bailey on a rural
road near Colony.
Geisler said previously he
was satisfied with the plea deal
and sentence. Bailey initially
was charged with first degree
murder. Geisler said Bailey
apparently was afraid to reveal
her pregnancy to her parents

dren under 18 were living at the
residence; distributing drugs
within 1000 feet of a school; and
use or possession of drug paraphernalia with intent to cultivate a controlled substance.
McAdams arrest on drugrelated charges comes more
than 11 years after another drugrelated case that led to changes in Kansas laws. McAdam
appealed a 2001 conviction,
and the Kansas Supreme Court
eventually lowered his sentence.
His appeal has been cited in 429
appeal cases, Anderson County
Attorney Fred Campbell said.
In that earlier case, McAdam
and two other people were
arrested after a sheriffs deputy interrupted them trying to
steal anhydrous ammonia from
the Kincaid Coop in April 2000.
McAdam was charged with 10
drug-related crimes, and convicted by a jury in August 2001
of four of those 10 charges. He
was sentenced to 173 months in
prison for conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine.
Sentences for the other crimes
were much shorter and were
ordered to run at the same time,
for a total of 173 months.
RECORDS…
McAdam appealed the convictions and the sentence partly
on the theory that two of the
laws in effect at the time – manufacture of methamphetamine
and compounding a stimulant
– imposed different penalties for
the same act. Campbell argued
the case before the Kansas Court
of Appeals and the Kansas
Supreme Court. The Court of
Appeals found one of the laws
was more specific and upheld
the sentence, but the Supreme
Court later reversed the decision and reduced McAdams
sentence from 173 months to 30
months in prison. His sentence
expired June 12, 2007.
Since then, McAdams case
has been used in other criminal appeal cases and led to
changes in the states drug laws.
McAdam returned to prison
last September on a conviction
of making a threat against a
law enforcement officer, and
was paroled Feb. 10, 2012.
As for the most recent case,
all three suspects had a first
court appearance in Anderson
County District Court Friday.
Bond is set at $50,000 each.
Scheckel requested a transfer
to Osawatomie State Hospital,
but no action was taken on her
request.

about the recent rains impact.
It could help some corn, and it
would certainly help soybeans,
he said. Hes seen many customers who expect to lose their
corn crop, but said most farmers have enough insurance to
cover the expense of putting
corn in the ground. Many farmers expected it to be another dry
year, so they obtained enough
insurance to cover this kind of
situation, Lizer said.
Most corn likely will be cut
for silage or grazed, Blocker
said. Farmers who plan to grazes the fields should have the soil
tested for nitrates, she said.
This year is the second year
the countys corn crop was dev-
astated by heat and drought.
Thats not unusual, Blocker
said.
It kind of goes in cycles,
she said. You have to take the
good with the bad. If youre a
farmer, you know that in a 10
year span you may have three
good years, two average, two
below average and so on. It all
kind of works out in the end.
Lizer said the main difference between last year and this
year is that everything happened earlier this year. Farmers
planted crops earlier this year.
Hot temperatures came on earlier this year, which damaged
crops earlier as well. At this
point last year, it still appeared
the county would have a decent
crop. Thats not the case now,
he said.

Countys history shows
fickle weather patterns long
before climate change
By today, if the weatherman is remotely
correct, Anderson County and the surrounding region should have seen a little
relief from the baking temperatures of the
last week or so that has widened the cracks
in our lawns and pastures and started to
make mud holes out
of our ponds.

global annihilation.
But its been hot and dry before.
The History of Anderson County
recounts some of the weather faced by the
early settlers in Anderson County. In fact
the weather was such an issue early on
that an entire section of the 1875 volume
recounts a synopsis of every season since
the county was first settled in1854:
(ital each year- also, quotation marks
open each years description but dont
close- thats how they do it when continued
quotes are used from the same text….)
1854: Was the most extreme drouth
(sic) not equaled in 60. Thee settlers say
that it scarcely rained for (ital) eleven
months. (end ital)
1855: Was as a most luxuriant crop of
everything in the line of vegetables that
was planted in the ground, and a covered
wagon could scarcely be seen above the
waving grass. Grasshoppers in the fall.
1856: It was dry, and a poor crop year.
1857: It was a little better.
1858: The winter extremely warm and
wet.
1859: An extreme good crop year.
1860: Extremely dry throughout the
winter, spring and summer, and was called
the great famine year. Wheat, oats, corn,
potatoes, and all vegetables failed; the grass
was so short that scarcely any hay was
saved. Vast quantities of provisions were
sent into Anderson and other counties.
(Other accounts say not a drop of rain
fell anywhere in Eastern Kansas from the
15th of May until the following January.
The drought of 1860 was the one that actually resulted in some people pulling up
stakes from Kansas and heading on west, or
back home to the east.)
1861: Good corn, wheat and oats crop.
Everything did well.
1862: Great cinch bug year- very
drouthy, scarcely any hay grown but the
following winter was extremely mild.
1863: Wet enough and good crops, but
there was a frost on the 27th of August that
did considerable (crop) damage in the bottoms.
1864: Dry season. Corn sold to government at $1.40 per bushel.
1865: Good season.
1866: Too wet to work corn in the summer, sickly season. Grasshoppers destroyed
all the early sown fall wheat. Crops good.
1867: Grasshoppers hatched but the big
rains destroyed them, so no damage was
done. Good crops.
1868: Extreme drouth, chich bugs; little
corn raised.
1869: Wet, waters high, good season
and crop year.
1870: Dry, poor crops, Hessian fly eat
the wheat in the fall.
1871: Good crop year.
1872: Big floods, good crop year, hard
winter followed.
1873: Bottoms good, uplands poor.
1874: Famine year; drouth, chinch bugs
and grasshoppers came August 23.
1875: The whole of the bottom and part
of the uplands were eaten up by the young
grasshoppers. Wheat, oats, clover, timothy,
corn and garden shrubbery were all eaten
up till the middle of June. By the 20th they
were gone. Good season and good corn; the
following season found our farmers with
over two-thirds of their provender on hand.
Hot, dry, cold, warm, wet, dry; bugs;
then good crops. The roller coaster of
Anderson County weather season to season
became expected as a standard. A little hot
weather, in these modern times, doesnt
seem so threatening looking back.
ObamaCare: Its not over
BY RICH LOWRY
NATIONAL REVIEW
Plans havent yet begun for the monument to John Roberts on the National
Mall. These things take time. Until the
groundbreaking, liberals must content
themselves with bestowing national sainthood on Roberts and with declaring the
health-care debate definitively over. Its
time for everyone to
accept a new $1 trillion
entitlement profoundly
affecting the direction
of American health care
and focus on issues of
concern to every civicminded American, such
as: Did Mitt Romney outsource a call center as
Lowry
Massachusetts governor?
ObamaCare has been
declared over repeatedly and consistently.
During the debate over its passage, it
was always one more Obama speech from
being settled once and for all. Afterward,
Democrats predicted there was no way
to repeal it, and its popularity was just
around the corner. The court challenge
was pooh-poohed as another instance of
futile resistance. Now that the law has
barely hung on thanks to the Roberts
triple lutz, the state of the debate is said to
be — as ever — over.
If so, supporters have lost it in the
arena of public opinion. Upon its passage, the New York Times/CBS poll found
that it had 32 percent support. Before the
Supreme Court decision, the New York
Times/CBS poll found its support essentially unchanged at 34 percent. A different poll — from Reuters/Ipsos found a
majority, 52 percent, still disapproved of it
in the immediate wake of headlines about
the Supreme Courts blessing.
The law has lacked popular legitimacy
from the beginning, and is still struggling
for it. Its major features are yet to be
implemented. Republicans remain unified in their opposition and commitment
to repeal. The cry that the debate is over
is an attempt to short-circuit that very
debate in a self-fulfilling prophecy.
The law is hardly the picture of stability. States have been slow to set up the
complex insurance exchanges as stipulated by the law. If they dont, the federal
government will be hard-pressed to set up
the exchanges on its own. As amended by
John Roberts, the law is more unstable.
He gives states the option to refuse the
laws Medicaid expansion. He weakens the
individual mandate. Both of the Roberts
changes mean the law may ultimately
cover fewer people.
How about all the wonders of the law?
Doesnt it reduce the deficit? Only under
optimistic Congressional Budget Office
projections. Doesnt it keep young adults
up to the age of 26 on their parents insurance plans? Most insurance companies
will probably do this anyway. Its two central selling points, insuring millions more
people and keeping people with pre-existing conditions from getting locked out of
insurance, can be addressed with policies
that are cheaper and less disruptive (a tax
credit for purchase of insurance and highrisk pools, respectively).
When they set out to pass health-care
reform, Democrats could have built public
support for a sweeping law, or scaled back
their ambitions. They did neither. Their
insistence that the debate is over is a function of their continued failure to win genuine acceptance of the law. Its still up in
the air, even after the great John Roberts
has spoken.

Review.
Republicans-Only Club will make
the big primary decisions
If youve been in Kansas long enough
to have finished breakfast, you understand
that the primary election is Aug. 7, and its
results will to a large degree determine
what the Kansas Legislature will be up to
for the next two sessions.
And it is also the election where there
is a probability of a fair amount ofhow
do we say this politelypolitical decisionmaking and cross-dressing.
Thats where a registered voter who
hasnt declared a party affiliation can just
wander into the voting place, sign a little
piece of paper, and declare him/herself a
registered Democrat, and get a Democratic
primary election ballot. Even a registered Republican can make the switch on
Election Day and get a Democratic ballot.
Its all done.
But if that unaffiliated voter on primary Election Day decides he/she would like
to pare the crop of Republican candidates…
its too late.
If youre not registered as a Republican
on July 17, when the election roll for the
primary election closes, youre not getting
a Republican primary election ballot. Or,
you might get one, but an elections canvass
board sometime toward the end of the week
of Aug. 7 will likely toss out your ballot.
That July 17 datewell, it makes some
sense if you are a Republican and dont
want a bunch of Democrats changing their
voter registration at the last minute to vote
for the most moderate candidate to carry
the other partys banner in the general
election.
That Democrat-to-Republican crossdressing tends to occur when Democrats
decide to choose the most moderate
Republicana so-called Republican In
Name Only (RINO)for the general election ballot in districts where Republican
registration is so heavy that it would take a
restraining order to defeat the GOP candidate at the general election.
Why is the potential party switch by
Democrats a big deal this election cycle? Its
by Martin Hawver
KANSAS STATEHOUSE COLUMNIST
because in the Kansas House, this years
elections are over in 18 districts at the primary election. There are 17 GOP-primary
only races and one Democrat-primary only
race. The winner is your new House member. In the Kansas Senate, there are eight
Republican primary-only races, where the
winner of the primary comes to Topeka.
(Sure, there could be minor party candidates, but chance of any of them winning
the general election is tiny.)
The majority of those races are conservative Republicans vs. moderate
Republicans, where the outcomeespecially in the Senatedetermines just how
much of what Gov. Sam Brownback wants
gets approved by the Legislature next year.
Does that make clear why Democrats
might consider registering as a Republican
before July 17? And does that make it clear
why Republicans who back Brownback are
a little fussy about who is meddling in their
primary elections?
We thought so.
We wont know about that party-switching for a couple weeks, but it might be
interesting to see how long those Democratturned-Republicans can hold their breath
in the pool of the Grand Old Party…

Finding out just recently that the new
school is only going to have one principal bothers me. There is going to be a
lot of children out there at that school,
the little ones up to the bigger ones, and
there should be a vice principal out there.
I dont think that the principal will be
there all the time due to other duties and
meetings and such, but there needs to be
a principal in that building at all times,
or a vice principal in that building at all
times, otherwise all the responsibility
will go to other people there that I dont
believe are qualified. I have seen some
people, some special ed teachers, that
have tried to take over when I have been
there before that are not very nice. There
were some teachers there that are so rude
that they should not be in charge of these
dicipline problems. If they do not have a
vice principal at that school I dont think
my grandchildren will be attending there
this year.
Yeah, I wanna say something about this
so called cable company which is nothing
but BS. Come to my house today, worked
on the cable line, TV is twice as bad, cant
watch the channels, now I dont have
internet, and theyre like, well well come
back next week. This is the most (deleted)
cable company in the world and I cant
believe this city lets them do business
here. This is how they treat people, now
I have no TV, no internet, all weekend. I
dont see how these guys stay in business.
This is just frustrating, it upsets me, and
I recommend people to go to (deleted).
Dont mess with this cable company. Even
the sales persons are rude and liars, they
give me a phone number to call that was
to somebody elses business, they claim it
was the Ottawa office, and when I called
they said they cant give me that number.
Since when does a baseball game take
precedence over a structure fire within
the Garnett fire department. It took the
fire department too long to respond to the
13th St. fire with only three firemen on
the truck. There were three firemen who
chose to play out an entire ballgame, then
two hours later rushed red lights and
sirens to the fire department to respond
to the 13th St. structure fire. To top it
off they left 75 foot ladder truck at the
station, and a Greeley ladder truck was
used instead. Two of those firemen are
lieutenants without the required qualifications and experience. Our new fire
chief and assistant chief have very little
fire experience too. This is a result of
the over management of the city with
negative results. If the trucks were ADA
accessible one firemen waiting at the
station would have been able to take that
truck. I pray that I dont need the fire
department, especially during a baseball
game. I encourage our city fathers to fix
this problem.
Hey guys Ive been following the notes in
phone forum about the madam. Listen
Ive been there and not just once. I lost
a lot and it wasnt worth it. She aint
worth it. It knows how to lie and manipulate men. As I have heard it has really
manipulated Mr. Colony. Has he lost his
wife and family yet?
At the June 12 City commission meeting
it was brought up that the crossing on 59
highway should be closer to Park Road
and the city managers reply was that
the state department of transportaion
has regulations that a sidewalk is only
limited so close to Park Road. So I took
it on myself to call KDOT and Topeka
and found out they never did tell the city
manager because the only criteria for a
crosswalk is that there be a sidewalk and
a curb cut on one side of the street where
the crosswalk should be and go to a sidewalk and curb cut on the other side of the
street. They also agree there should be a
light at Redbud. Agree also that the safest
place a crosswalk should be at Park Road
where the traffic light is. When I asked
about how long it took KDOT to get back
to the city on this because for 2 12 years
weve been reading the holdup is KDOT
that also is not true. KDOT has approved
three crossings on 59 highway at the citys
request. Theres something not right here
on what weve been told over the years.
I just want to say the fireworks at the lake
last night was really good, probably the
best they ever had. I really really enjoyed
it. But I want to know why there is no
cop directing traffic afterward. I spent
more time in line than I did watching
fireworks.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 10, 2012
MCCORMICK…
FROM PAGE 1A
sisters of 13 year-old Mary
Jane Robertson, who was
killed in May 2010 when Connie
McCormick crashed the car she
was driving under the influence in southern Anderson
County, say shes used her
alleged health problems in
the past as a ploy to escape
penalties and jail sentencing
for other crimes. One of those
instances they said involved a
boyfriend who died when she
crashed a vehicle in 1999, also,
her nieces said, when she was
under the influence of drugs
and or alcohol.
McCormicks lawyer Forrest
Lowry said in motions filed last
month that her medical bills so
far had cost Anderson County
$7,000 and were likely to cost
many times that amount by the
time she serves the remainder
of the one year sentence she
started last March. Lowrys
motions stated McCormick
had been diagnosed with liver
cancer, that her own insurance
would pay for her treatments if
she was out of jail, and that it
would be in the best interests
of the inmate and of Anderson
County if her sentence was
remanded to house arrest with
electronic monitoring and she
be released to seek her own
treatment. She was to undergo
more tests at the University of
Kansas Medical Center July 2.
County attorney Fred
Campbell, also in motions
filed previous to McCormicks
July 18 hearing, requested the
defense provide signed medical releases as to McCormicks
claim of health issues, with signatures by the doctors or medical service providers who conducted the tests or exams, in
order that the state can evaluate the strength and credibility
of her claims.
Campbells motion said that
records released so far included duplicates which made it
appear her condition had been
treated and evaluated more
often than it actually had. He
also said the existing records
were incomplete and in places contained only references
to treatments, providers and
evaluations she claimed had
been conducted without actual
signed letters by the doctors
attesting to the results of those
evaluations and treatments.
Anderson County officials
have been working behind
the scenes to get McCormick
released due to the costs of
her treatments, an effort
Robertsons sisters have said
negates justice in favor of the
countys budget.
Anderson County District
Court Judge Eric Godderz, who
revised Campbells original
charges against McCormick
upon which she was later sentenced, said at the previous
hearing it was unfortunate
that while McCormick deserved
to serve out her sentence, that
sometimes theres a cost/benefit analysis to things.
The July 18 hearing begins
at 9 a.m. in district court.
SCHOOL…
FROM PAGE 1A
Its not yet known what use
the district will have for those
classrooms. Some ideas have
included using the rooms for
the districts alternative school
or moving district offices to the
facility, Superintendent Don
Blome said.
In addition to the actual
costs of demolishing the building and renovating the gym and
classrooms, the district also will
have to pay for soft costs like
architectural fees and surveys,
as well as establishing a contingency fund. Although those
fees may vary, it is estimated
they will add another $135,000
or so to the cost of the project.
There also could be more
expenses as contractors get
into the project. For example,
the district would like to reuse
existing heating systems for the
remaining three classrooms.
But those units are about 20
years old at the end of their
lifespan and contractors may
discover problems with the
units when they are moved to
accommodate the demolition
and renovation. If so, it will
cost another $29,000 for new
rooftop units for those classrooms.
The maximum cost of the
project including those possible
expenses is about $1,011,160, or
just over $1 million.

Nabholz
Construction,
which built the new Garnett
Elementary Center to replace
GEC and Irving Primary
Center, also will serve as contractor for the project.
A last-minute plan to save
GEC was proposed by Mike
and Monica Hill, who have
purchased older buildings in
downtown Garnett. The Hills
contacted Kansas City developer Steve Foutch, who bought
the old Ottawa High School and
Middle School and turned it
into apartments for low-income
senior citizens. Foutch sent Hill
an email with a proposal to
buy both GEC and IPC for $1,
and he would take responsibility for renovating the buildings
or would sell or demolish them
if he could not find a good use
for them. However, the plan
was not officially presented
to the board, and the board
never considered it. School
board members who were
aware of Foutchs offer said
they believed it was unlikely it
would be approved. Hill attended Thursdays school board
meeting but did not discuss the
issue with board members. She
said Monday it appeared board
members had made up their
minds to demolish the school,
and the quest to save GEC
seemed to be over.
IPC remains for sale at an
asking price of $40,000.

88th Annual
Richmond Free Fair
July 12-14
Open Doors is popular event at Richmond Fair
BY PAT VINING
Special to THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
This rural Richmond man
wears many different hats – that of retired Co-op truck
driver and electrician, and now
of gardener, woodshop craftsman, cook, baker, quilter………
yes, QUILTER!
Arlen Hall has completed his
third queen-size quilt and will
take it to Open Doors at the
United Methodist Church from
4-8 p.m. during the Richmond
Free Fair, July 12, 13 and 14.
This is the ninth year for
Open Doors, a fun time for
anyone to display his or her
hobby or collection, whatever
it may be. Dolls, souvenirs,
antiques, aprons, farm toys and
many other kinds of memorabilia have been displayed over the
years, and this years event will
feature some just as interesting,
said Mary Hall who organizes
the project.
The Richmond church likes
to open its doors to fair-goers,
giving them a place to rest, get
a cool drink, and visit with
friends while enjoying the 25
or so different non-competitive
displays.
Among these will be Arlens
latest quilt which features 42
bird houses and 47 hand-gathered yo-yos, made into a pattern
he designed, all in complimentary and attractive colors.
Good
Luck to
richmond
healthcare
all fair participants!

Its only logical that Arlen
designed a Bird House quilt
since hes made at least 100 bird
houses of various shapes, sizes
and designs, many personalized
to fit a persons line of work or
personality.
Many men do wood crafts,
and are cooks and bakers with
the same skills Arlen has, but
not many have their own sewing
machine and make a quilt each
winter as a way to keep busy.
One might ask how he developed such talents and became
interested in quilting.
Arlen quickly credits his
mother with instilling these
qualities in him and his wife
for encouraging him. Widowed
when Arlen was six years old,
his mother spent much time
with her children, especially
Arlen and a younger sister,
and taught them the basics
of housekeeping, sewing and
cooking. How proud she would
be today to see his cartons of
frozen corn, apple pies, grilled
salmon and beautiful quilts!
A few years ago, Arlen began
to talk about making a quilt,
which was an ambitious firstyear project for anyone. Mary
encouraged his goal and made
sure he received his own sewing machine (a Brother brand)
for Christmas. A talented artist,
Mary sews but doesnt quilt, so
the two of them learned together and figured out a lot of things
that one simply has to do to
learn. Arlen said all the cutting
is the most difficult part, but he
really enjoys the sewing part.
The first year he chose a
Shoo-Fly pattern from a book,
selected earth-tone colors and
details himself, and did all the
piecing and sewing. He has the
tops quilted by Brenda Weien in
Ottawa.
The next year he made the
more difficult Bethlehem Star
pattern and pieced it in yellow
and shades of blue. The project
was interrupted by major heart
surgery and rehabilitation, but
he returned to quilting when he
was able and finished in time
for Open Doors.
With the third quilt now
completed, there is one for each
of their daughters — Carla
Springer, Sheila Kratzberg and
Martha Hall — and its a matter
of who will eventually receive
which quilt.
Look for Arlens quilts at
Open Doors, but there will
also be lots of other displays,
including a necktie collection,
farm toys, electric trains, model
airplanes, several village sets

more.
Anyone who would like to
display his or her hobby or collection should call Mary Hall at
(785) 835-6379 for information.
Theres always room for more
displays, said Mary, who originated Open Doors nine years
ago after lay leader Dennis
Peters encouraged more use of
the church building in a sermon
he gave.
The cool and comfortable Fellowship Hall (with no
steps) has become a favorite of
Richmond fair-goers from 4-8
each evening of the fair. So,
add Open Doors at the United
Methodist Church to your
Richmond Free Fair schedule.
A celebration in October will
mark the 50th year of this building, though the Methodist
Church has been in the community since the 1870s.
As for Arlen, hes thinking
about patterns for those four
grandchildren and five greatgrandchildren, and planning to
make quilted throws or similar
for them. Cant wait to see what
he brings to Open Doors next
year!

Historical society collects GEC items for museum
The Anderson County
Historical Society met at the
Willow Branch School on June
7, 2012, hosted by Rick and
Diane Doran and Doug and
Sue Archer with 36 members
and guests present. Shirley
Roeckers, Vice President, welcomed Cody Gettler as one of
our younger guests and she
welcomed Vivian Fink who has
moved back to Garnett.
Dorothy Lickteig, President,
called the meeting to order.
Kristie Kinney, Secretary,
read the minutes from the
meeting held May 3, 2012 at
the museum. The minutes
were approved as read. Terry
Solander, Treasurer, provided
the Treasurers report and said
the budget will be presented to
the County Commissioners on
Monday, June 11, 2012 at 10:00
a.m. Dorothy Lickteig provided
the Presidents report.
The new full length metal
roof, with an overhang, on
the museum has been completed. Bids are being accepted
through June 30, 2012, for 38
sheets of white tin, 16-18-feet
long, from the roof. Paul Phares
was thanked for all his work on
the walls and clean up of the
construction material.
The American Legion
requested the names of all the
soldiers that have ever served
from Anderson County for the
memorial on the courthouse
lawn. Anyone with names
should contact Ken Miller at
KDS Auto Detailing.
Dorothy Lickteig, Paul
Phares, Ivan Mader, Rick Doran,
Shirley Roeckers, Glen Hastert
and Ruth Lee Hastert removed
several items from the old high
school building to the museum.
Items removed include: three
(3) doors, consisting of the old
gym door, principals office
door, and superintendents
office door; a section of five (5)
old wooden auditorium seats
from the balcony; five (5) trophy
cases; veterans plaques from
the flag pole bases, which were
given to the American Legion
for the downtown memorial;
1963 plaque for the new wing,
FFA trophies from the 1970s
and 1980s; an old metal frame
locking door bars; and two (2)
red lockers. An old picture of
the school, before Oak Street
was paved, was requested and it
is unknown whether the museum will obtain that picture at
this time. Glen and Ruth Lee
Hastert also relocated yellow
lilies from the school to the
Harris House.
Ruth Lee Hastert reported
that Preston Peine will be
recording oral histories at
the high school open house
on June 9, 2012, as people are
touring the school. Mr. Peine
wants to record oral histories
of Anderson County events
and families to create a library
where people could access the
recordings. Robert Matthews
has volunteered to do the
recordings and Mr. Peine will
do the interviewing. Mr. Peine
plans to have this project up
and running by the end of the
summer.
The Advancers club toured
the museum and will tour the
Harris House at a later date.
The 50-year class reunion members toured the museum with
Shirley Roeckers and the Harris
House with Ruth Lee Hastert
and Zella Teter. The Greeley
Elementary School toured the
Gerth Cabin. Dorothy Lickteig
has completed the Colony
Volume 1 through 1907 and the
cost to purchase will be $69.00.
Paul Phares found a case of
new notebooks at the Thrift
Store for the museum. Gary
Cline donated a display case for
the Henderson war memorabilia. George Helms donated ice
tongs from Pages Garnett Ice
Storage; a Kellogg oil can from
the Kellogg Cereal Company;
and a box that says Varoom for
a bicycle from the 1950s that
is similar to one he had when
he was a kid. The Shell Station
donated another open flag
which will be used at the Harris
House.
Wilma Powls reported that
she has completed her book
titled Thats the Way It Was,
By Golly, on the recordings of
Everett Ed Fink. She thanked
Kristie Kinney for the picture
of Ed for the cover of the book
which was taken when he was
about 20-years old. There is a
CD that accompanies the book.
She reported that her husband,
Bill Powls, recorded some of
Eds stories. Ed started telling
his story, using no notes, from
the Louisiana Purchase and
went to the present day at the
time of the recording. The book
is a transcription of Eds words
in those recordings. The CD is
extra material on things that Ed
knew about Pretty Boy Floyd
and how he became involved
in crime in the late 1929s and
1930s.
Henry Roeckers reported
on his archeology dig at Henry
and Mary Morgans farm at
Greeley, which was the homestead of Samuel and Mary
Mack in 1857-1858. They had
one child, Fannie Mack that was
the first white child born in that
township. Samuel Mack had
belonged to the John Brown,
Jr. Pottawatomie rifle guard,
and he was one of the first
seven listed in the Anderson
County History book. Several
artifacts were found at this site,
including several Civil War
artifacts. In addition, there was
a rock-lined well which was
36-inches across from outside
rock on each side, so the inside
was approximately 30-inches
diameter. About 30-yards from
the first well, he found another
rock-lined well that was 28inches across. He thinks the
house was used as a trading
post, because Valley City was
close to this cabin site, and he
found at least 30 pieces of bowls
and stemware from pipes that
were not alike. He also found
three or four 5-gallon buckets
of crockery in various sizes and
shapes. This was a possible stop
during the Civil War, because
those artifacts were found in a
direct path from the creek to
the south to the well, and then
in an angle toward the cabin.
Dorothy Lickteig reported that
the Pottawattamie guards practiced in a field to the east and
James Townleys cabin was in
that area. He found very few
square nails, so it was probably
a log structure pegged together.
There was some very thick window pane glass. He also found
some burnt wood and some
logs still intact, so he felt this
cabin had burnt down. It brings
to question whether the cabin
burnt down by accident or by
Quantrill when they came back
from Lawrence and they sacked
several farm homes on their
way back. The earliest artifact
found was dated 1850, which
was a large cent. The latest
artifact found was about 1867
or 1868. Samuel Mack took sick
in 1858 and he moved back east
somewhere and he died shortly
after he returned. Coins found
were from 1863 through 1868.
Many of the artifacts were damaged from the fire. Some of the
pieces have been reassembled.
He speculated that some of the
broken dishware was broken
from heat or something similar,
since pieces were all found in
one place.
Henry Roeckers also reported that he spent two days at
Idylewild and found a gold
ladies hat pin with a knob on
the top full of garnets. Under
the tower, he only found three
pennies dated 1910, 1920 and
1930.
The next meeting will be at
the Colony Diner. The date will
be posted later in the newspapers.

Have you ever shot an anvil?
If youve never heard of
the sport called anvil shooting,
dont feel bad. To tell you the
truth, until a short time ago, I
had no idea anvil shoots even
existed. To me the thought
of lighting as much as two
pounds of gunpowder under
a 100 pound anvil screams
of safety hazard, especially
when onlookers watched from
a distance, trying to catch a
glimpse of something different and new to them. In actuality, anvil shooting may be as
ancient as the cannon.
Shooting anvils is a practice that can be traced back in
this country to Colonial times.
Generally, it was done on occasions of celebration though
there are cases where it was
used as a signal. The custom
pretty much died out by the
1920s, but is undergoing somewhat of a renaissance. Some
people say that anvil shooting
originated during the time of
American settlers. Apparently
the settlers who lived up in
the mountains away from any
sign of civilization would hear
rumors of an oncoming Indian

Contact (785) 448-6244
for local archeology information.
attack. The settlers would
light some gunpowder under
an anvil and try to scare the
Indians away by making them
think that the loud bang from
the anvil was a warning from
the gods.
Others say of anvil shooting that it originated during
the Civil War, when the North
would invade small Southern
towns. They would destroy
everything within the town
that was of some use to the villagers and since blacksmiths
were very vital to the towns,
the Union Solders would take
the blacksmiths anvils. They
would then saw off the horns
of the anvils, rendering them
useless.
After awhile the Union soldiers got tired of putting forth
so much effort into the sawing
off of the horns so they decided to blow up the anvils. This
proved to be unsuccessful.
Instead of the anvils breaking
in half, they shot straight up
into the air with minimal damage. Maybe a scratch or two.
Some have said this is reviving an old tradition from back
in the gold rush days. Miners
would test their powder by
shooting anvils. It evolved into
something of a competition.
Maybe that was true or perhaps the miners just needed
to burn off some excess testosterone.
The fuse is lit. Fire in the
hole!
Ill bet watching an anvil
casually spinning end over
end above a big cloud of
white smoke is sure something. Another thing would be
the thrill of the tremendous
blast.
Anyone who catches the flying anvil can keep it. Do we
have any takers?
The Anderson County ECKAN
Community Center began accepting applications for its annual
program that provides school supplies to children in need on July
2.

Now that the wet weather of
the past few weeks has finally given way to a summer of
high humidity and high temperatures, area farmers have
been able to start their wheat
harvest. But that wet weather that has held them out of
the fields for so long has given
them a number of headaches.
Continuous rain has kept the
farmers from planting as well
as harvesting. The rain also
drowned the wheat crop. The
rains also hurt the corn crop as
well. This also translates into
bad news for the farmers.

1982: Wet weather hurts wheat
July 16, 2002
A Kansas City engineering
firm has agreed to examine a
leak discovered last week at
the Lake Garnett dam. City
Manager Rick Doran discovered what he suspected to be a
leak in the dam while walking
along the Prairie Spirit Trail
last week. Doran heard rushing
water coming from the north
side of the dam under a road
and the nearby trail.
Anderson County Attorney
Fred Campbell was asked for an
accident reconstruction from
the Kansas Highway Patrol as
part of an investigation into a
May 19 traffic accident which
killed two Central Heights High
School teenagers. Campbell
told county commissioners
the reconstruction had been
requested in order to determine if evidence existed which
could elevate the incident from
the realm of a civil law matter
to that of a criminal matter.
Campbell has been criticized in
recent week for failing to prosecute the alleged offenses, but
Campbell told commissioners
the real determination came
down to where there was evidence to support the charges.
