Dairy goats add depth to sustainable farm
BY CHELSEY DALBINI THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
SCIPIO What started as a way to fill
a need for the community has turned
into a way to promote fellowship, care
for others, and educate a generation
about natural practices on the farm.
Chris and Amanda Walker moved
to rural Scipio last
year looking for
a way to pass
on
inherited
knowledge
from
Amandas
youth in Arizona.
I grew up in rural
Arizona.
I grew up learning how to care for
LaMancha goats, and using their milk
for a lot of different products, Amanda
said, We made cheese and soap, and
drank their milk, and I wanted that for
my kids.
Walker said goats are personable
and trainable, a truly multi-purpose
animal. People use them as pets,
entertainment, dairy producers, meat
production, and foliage management.
In fact, goats prefer to live without
humans, keeping company with themselves or with other animals.
The Walkers let them freerange roam, and are confident in
their safety by letting the other
animals roam with them as a
form of protection. Included in
the goat herd are a pair of Pilgrim
Geese, a Peacock, and a pair of
Great Pyrenees dogs that will alert
if there is trouble or chase off predators.
Chris and Amanda started what
they call the Walker Funny Farm by
purchasing their first goat, Daisy at
the Gas Kansas Auction something
Amanda describes as love at first sight.
Daisy produces about 3 liters of milk
per milking and that ensures that the
Walker family will have more than
enough milk for dinner while making
sure that Amanda can impart the process of making natural goat cheeses
with vinegar and lemon juice. She said
3 liters of milk would produce about 8-9
cups of cheese, making Daisy a truly
prolific source of nutrition. Amanda
and Chris have emphasized self-sufficiency with their family and in their
goat community.
Supporting homesteading practices
in being resourceful, fence building,
animal care, and promoting holistic
and natural processes rather than
introducing chemicals into the food
they raise, the couple is doing all they
can to ensure that their children and
the community surrounding them do
the same.

OBITUARIES
Jesus set the bar high
The character in life
Jackie Mundt, Pratt County
farmer and rancher
As Fathers Day is just completed, I have been reflecting
on the life and legacy of my
grandfather, Emil, who passed
away at the age of 95 earlier this year. I spent more of
my life with him than any of
my other grandparents, giving
me a deeper understanding of
the wisdom he shared and the
ways he shaped the character
and personalities of my family.
Grandpa wasnt outwardly affectionate; I am not sure
I ever remember seeing him
hug or show public affection
to anyone. He showed love by
working hard to support his
family; he spent more than 40
years working six days a week
on rotating shifts at the local
paper mill and milking 40 to 50
head of cattle twice a day. He
showed support to his grandchildren through generosity
by buying 4-H and FFA project animals, getting us show
supplies or making contributions to fund experiences that
expanded our educations and
broadened our horizons.
He didnt give pep talks,
preach life lessons or try to
inspire by speech, but his
ability to persevere and overcome obstacles inspires me. He
began life in a home where
only German was spoken.
Though he and his siblings
learned English at school, his
mother never did. He and his
brothers took responsibilities for running the farm at a
young age because his father
suffered injuries in World
War I that prevented him from
providing for the family. He
left high school to serve in the
Navy at the end of World War
II and eventually completed
his education after he returned
from the service. At the age of
92, he crawled 150 yards with
a broken hip after rolling his
ATV, and instead of letting the
injuries conquer him, he waited out his sentence of rehab
at the nursing facility without
complaint until he was healed
enough to return home.
Grandpa had a quiet devo-
tion to the important things
in life. He visited his wife of
60 years every single day for
several years when she moved
into a nursing home at the
end of her life even though he
remained at home to continue
running the farm. He never
spoke about religion but attended church every Sunday, even
after my grandmother passed
away, until his health prevented him and he had to listen to
the service on the radio.
He showed patriotism was
important, and he was proud to
be a member of the American
Legion for 70-plus years. The
Honor Flight to Washington
DC in 2011 was the trip of a
lifetime for him, and he loved
to share stories and pictures
from the trip. At the age of 94
he participated in the Dream
Flight and took a ride in a
WWII biplane.
He cared about making a
good impression and showing
respect. Grandpa showed tremendous pride that our family
dressed formally for grandmas
funeral because he thought too
few people show that kind of
care and effort anymore. My
cousin recounted how, in the
age of cell phones, he always
left her very formal voicemails stating, Hello, Jenna.
This is your grandfather, Emil
Mundt
My grandfather passed
along more than the genes for
bushy eyebrows and having a
big sweet tooth to his children
and grandchildren. His values
of love, service, generosity,
hard work, dedication, pride
and high standards are a legacy that live on in me and my
family members.
Happy Fathers Day and
thank you to all the men who
are modeling important values
and showing the value of character in life.

Senior Center
pitch results
of June 8th
What a fun night we had
on the 8th of June. There
were fourteen players, three
tables, who played ten games
of 13-point pitch. It was a very
unusual evening in that we had
multiple times where different
individuals shot the moon or
shot for game.
When you shoot the moon,
make all 13 points, you get a
bonus of double the points or
26. Then if another player double shoots they make 52 points
if they make all 13 points. In
one such game a party shot for
game, the next player double
shot for game and the third
person double shot that so
he received 104 points. Very
unusual.
Other results are as follows:
Jan Wards was high winning
9 of 10 games; Karen Register
took low; Don Smith won both
the 50/50 draw and had the
most perfect hands with four.
Come join us on Thursday
evening promptly at 6 o'clock
at the Senior Center. Always
room for one more.
Jan Wards reporting
Romans 5:3 tells us we are
to rejoice in our sufferings.
We can do this because of the
example Jesus set before us
with his life. Jesus was constantly under attack from the
Pharisees, and because of their
accusations the Roman government. This attack finally
resulted in his death on the
cross. Jesus endured for all to
see during his three year ministry abuse on an unimaginable
scale yet he never reviled anyone. Jesus wanted all to see
that the bond between him and
the Father was greater than
any man could destroy.
Everyone who rejoices in
their suffering today is doing
so for the sake of the gospel
and is bringing souls closer to
Jesus because of their witness.
This is totally a foreign concept to people today. We are
told there is something that can
alleviate any suffering we experience. There is an element
of truth to this, however what
happens is whatever we use
for pain, sickness or depression
etc. only masks the problem.
Suffering is tough to endure
whether it is one of the above
issues or verbal and abusive.
Mark this down, only with God
can you find joy in suffering.
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
Gods unchanging character
can anchor you in the darkest
valleys. As you draw close to
him in your time of suffering,
you can choose joy within your
pain and even point others to
God through your example.
One might ask does joy come
after suffering or in the midst
of it? The Psalmist tells us in
Psalm 30:5, weeping lasts the
night but joy comes with the
morning.
God will comfort us in the
midst of suffering through
study of the Bible and prayer.
While he knows the words
we will speak before we ever
say them and he knows our
thoughts, God wants us to tell
him what is on our mind and
what we are worried about.
How we handle this goes a long
way toward revealing our relationship with God. Jesus set
the bar high.

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 13, 2023
Kids an important focus for LGBTQ
A videogame creators contributions to
Call of Duty were stripped from the platform
last week after he tweeted that LGBT activists
should leave little children alone.
In response to a video of parents brawling
with LGBT activists over their school board
voting to promote sexual programming to kids
in June, the gamer who goes by the handle
Nickmercs tweeted, They should leave little
children alone. Thats the real issue.
For that, the Louder with Crowder
podcast reported, Call of Duty removed
Nickmercs bundle of game additions from its
store, with the companys account tweeting,
We are focused on celebrating PRIDE with
our employees and community. Weirdly, its
message indicated the company thinks its progay to sexually target children.
This isnt the only time people attempting to
push what they think are pro-LGBT messages
tacitly communicate some very disparaging
things about LGBT activists goals. In fact, it
seems to be a trend. As homosexual pride has
gone mainstream, so have the arguments that
seem to suggest LGBT identification is inextricably linked with pornography, sexually targeting children, sexually transmitted diseases,
and other social evils.
In an NBC documentary on cross-dressers wanting to perform sexually suggestive
dances for children that came out in May,
reporter Antonia Hylton linked new red-state
laws against sexual performances in front of
kids with domestic extremism. The documentary shows men wearing red shirts and
masks, making a hail motion like Nazis, as
an example of the kind of people who oppose
crotch-grabbing dances in front of kids. Get
that? Oppose sexual performances in front of
kids, and youre a Nazi.
This mini-doc also defends LGBT performers waving their genitals in front of kids
by noting that their parents brought the kids
to these events. You cant make this stuff up.
So the left is against parental rights when
parents object to showing their elementary
schoolers penises and explaining what fisting is, but entirely pro-parental choice when
their choice is showing their elementary
schoolers penises and explaining what fisting is. Clearly theyre not pro-parents, but
pro-showing-children-pornography.
Thats just one of many frightfully transpar-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
JOY PULLMAN, THE FEDERALIST
ent public sexual propaganda efforts this June.
In another, the city publication DCist was very
outspoken with a headline directly connecting
LGBT partying with Monkeypox disease outbreaks. The text included this: Based on the 2022
outbreak, the LGBTQ community is at most risk
of infection. Men who had sex with other men had
the most confirmed cases, both nationally and
locally.
Its not just leftist media, either. Its the federal government. Pride flag-waving Joe Bidens
Department of Education argued in May that
LGBT kids require access to pornography in
school to affirm their identity. Using the same
reasoning enshrined into Supreme Court precedent by a colossally stupid Neil Gorsuch, USED
argued that a Georgia school districts removal
of books from schools created a hostile environment for students based on sex.
Even though the school district put almost all
the objectionable books back on shelves for kids,
USED claimed that even reviewing the books
after parent complaints created a hostile environment. These were, of course, books luridly
describing sex, illegal drug use, and masturbation. The aspirational model for a young lesbian
in one of the books school librarians put back on
the shelves is the fictional author of a book about
Empowering Your P-ssy.
This book, according to a Common Sense
Media review, features detailed descriptions of
kissing and lovemaking between women, sexual fantasies, sexual arousal, masturbation, and
periods, as well as extensive discussion of sexual
orientation and gender identity and an excellent
example of a consent conversation. Another

What do wind turbines do when theres no wind?
KANSAS COMMENTARY
make any sense at all?
In situations like thisincluding Winter
Storm Uri… it does not matter how many
wind turbines you have no wind equals no
power.
Yet, this country is hell bent on replacing
coal and nuclear with wind and solar.
China and Russia must be enjoying watching us commit energy suicide. They are building coal plants as fast as they canbecause
coal is still the cheapest form of electrical
generation. Their economies will thrive and
ours will wither with no reliable power.
Its not even summer yet and the wind is
failing. It never will be able to produce firm
dispatchable generation capacity. Neither can
solar. The sooner we realize that and get our
energy policies right, the better.
Mike Thompson is a former television meterologist and presently the state senator from
District 10 in the Kansas Legislature.
We have been enjoying driving around Garnett
and seeing all the decorated bicycles put out for
the Bike Across Kansas. Some real creativity
and just a really great idea for whoever came
up with it. A neat way to showcase our town.
Thanks to whoever did this.
Back in March the Garnett school Facebook
page said they were following an investigation
of hoax school shooter reports arounnd the
area but we never heard anything about this
afterwards and its like everyone just forgot
about it. I hope someone was prosecuted for this
but we dont know because there was no other
information ever came out about it. It would be
nice if our newspaper would find out about this
because some of us would like to know. Thank
you.

For the past few days, the wind across the

calm. As a result, only 1% of all the generation of electricity came from wind power. See

NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
a seismic political event? A couple of inches
either way?
If Biden were to do a face plant, even down
a few steps, it could be very ugly. Itd be a symbol of U.S decrepitude. Its one thing to have a
senior senator from California who obviously
should have hung it up several years ago; its
another to have a U.S. president lacking the
agility to get around easily and safely anymore.
He also could get seriously hurt. Senate
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, 81, fell a
couple of months ago and had to be hospitalized. He suffered a concussion and a broken
rib.
I dont say this with any pleasure. Anyone
who has dealt with an elderly parent in
decline knows aging and its attendant loss of
capacity are frustrating, heartbreaking and
humiliating.
In their apparent willingness to acquiesce
to another Biden nomination, Democrats are
looking away from the enormous risk his
frailty poses to their prospects.
A bad fall or some other health event could
happen on a catastrophic political timetable
— if something happened to Biden in late
October 2024, it could easily throw a close race
to his Republican opponent. Hillary Clintons
polling took a hit in 2016 after her fainting
spell on Sept. 11.
While the public often sympathizes with
politicians with health troubles (see Sen. John
Fetterman), any adverse Biden event would
confirm widespread doubts about his capacities and the wisdom of him running again.
Rather than simply the victim of circumstances out of his control, hed likely look foolhardy
for having taken on, once again, at age 80 or
81, the physically, mentally and emotionally
taxing enterprise of a national campaign.
Moreover, it would make Biden the issue
in the campaign when the whole idea is supposed to be that he can repeat his role as the
default candidate, making the other guy, especially Donald Trump, the focus of the race.
All of this should be factored into any calculus of how electable Biden is or how strong
a candidate he is against Trump. Its understandable that Democrats feel they are stuck -theres no good way to leverage an incumbent
out of office and there arent readily evident
strong candidates waiting in the wings.
The conservative intellectual James
Burnham famously said, If theres no alternative, theres no problem. There may be
no good alternative to Biden for Democrats,
but having to hold your breath every time he
climbs or descends the steps of Air Force One
is a big problem and one that isnt going away
from now until Nov. 5, 2024.

After missing a week, here are 4 more finds 20 years ago….Garnett sets short-lived Guiness record
First of all, I want to apologize for not having a column in
last weeks paper but it just so
happens we were in Maine visiting our daughter and family
and just plain forgot to submit
an extra column.
This weeks column will
consist of four more photos of
items found at my TR site.
I also want to let you know I
will be rotating my excavating
sites between the TR & the MN
sites. The TR site is the site of
an 1800s farm site and the MN
site is the location of an old
1800s log cabin. Many years
ago Kay & I actually owned this
site.
Here are the photos promised.
#1 – I bet all you fishermen
will recognize this old clamp on
lead sinker.
#2 – In the 1920s & early
1930s there was a brand of
clothing called HUNTERS.
This brass button mostly likely
came from a pair of overalls.
#3 – A silver plated fork.
#4 – Two more beautiful marbles found at this site.

Arent Blue, describes masturbation and oral sex, as well
as two sexual encounters and
statutory rape.
USED actually argued that
removing books containing
graphic details of sexual acts
created a hostile environment
in their schools for LGBT kids.
Why does forming LGBT kids
sexual identity require access
to pornography and rape fantasies? I thought people were
born that way. People who
are born that way wouldnt
need pornography to form or
affirm their identities.
Frankly, its not clear that
anyone at all needs to be reading any of these challenged
books. They offer zero literary
or artistic merit. Its obvious
from flipping through them
that they are word vomit from
trophy of the shape of the track
designed and manufactured by
racer Reggie Brown..
This great event isn't possible without the whole community coming together to make
this happen with the help
from the City of Garnett and
their staff, volunteers to work
the races, Anderson County
Wrestlers and their Sponsors
Jeremy McAdam and Keegan
Barnes with hauling hay and
the St Luke's Hospital ambulance. This event brings a lot
of revenue to our community.
damaged people who wish to
damage others. There is no
legitimate justification for
spending public dollars on
these books, and its a moral
crime to give them to anyone,
let alone minors.
These books are specifically
created to push sexual identities on kids. Thats because
pornography exposure and
addiction can shift peoples
sexual attraction to increasingly weirder kink.
The goal of pushing sexual identities on kids is not a
secret, either; the authors of
these pornographic books say
that in public. For example,
the author of All Boys Arent
Blue, George M. Johnson, told
NPR that he writes sex stories
for kids as part of his activism.
This is just an extension of
the advocacy work that I do,
Johnson said. Writing is a
form of activism. And any
time you do something thats a
form of activism, theres going
to be another side that doesnt
like it.
What kind of activism is it
to write pornographic stories
for kids? Why is it activism
to expose developing minds to
things that adults dont need to
see either? Its awfully telling
that top LGBT allies, including the federal government
and corporate media, agree
that exposing little kids to sex
vocabulary, acts, fantasies,
and consequences is an intrinsic part of the LGBT effort.
LGBT
activists
have
responded with outrage to the
label groomer. Yet these
same people keep providing
public evidence that grooming
is exactly whats going on.

needed the nutrition for their children, Amanda said. According
to Mayo Clinics website, a recent
study found that one in four babies
who were allergic to cow milk
werent allergic to goat milk.
Goat milk is one of the most
commonly consumed types of
dairy in the world due to the versatility of the goats living space.
Contrary to popular belief, goat
milk is a close substitute for cow
milk, with no discernible taste
difference between the two. The
dairy products produced from goat
milk mirror that of cows milk, but
with far more benefits
including the ability
for goats to produce
enzymes in the milk
that help digestion,
the formation of smaller curds for cheese
making, and more calories per cup.
All of those benefits coupled with the
sunny disposition of
the animal make them
the perfect addition
to any small farm, or
in some cases, large
yard.
Milk production
varies by breed.
Smaller goat breeds
may produce less milk
per milking, but the
milk is no less beneficial. Most popular for
dairy production in
our area are Nubian,
LaMancha, Alpine,
and Nigerian Dwarf breeds, and
with a life expectancy solely based
on how well cared for they are,
goats can continue producing milk
for more than a decade. With
correct care, I can expect Daisy
to live for 10-15 years, Amanda
said. Ive had some live 15-20
years even. We feed them with
fermented feed from Valley R for
gut health, and so far weve had
really great results. The milk is
good and very consistent, so she
should produce for us for a long
time.
Always looking to educate more
people about goats and their uses,
Amanda said that she encourages
people to do research before buying goats.
Make sure that you are looking
at the big picture and what the
needs of your family are before
making the investment, she said.
Join an already established community of goat-raising families
where you can ask questions of
experts around you. Make sure
that each family is using their
available resources appropriately
and ensure that you are providing
the best care for your animals.
