wind farm lawsuits SEEKING
Contractors sue over
unpaid services; could
it happen in local area?
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
BURLINGTON A series of
lawsuits involving contractors
who havent been paid for their
services in constructing the
Waverly Wind Farm have been
continued to Thursday of this
week in Coffey County District
Court, and are being watched
closely by people on both sides
of the brewing debate over a
wind farm project in eastern
Anderson County.
Seven separate cases involving contractors who worked
on the Waverly wind energy
project last year and earlier
this year were filed with initial
hearings set the first week of
June, but each of those cases
were continued until a 1:30 p.m.
hearing time this Thursday,
June 30.
A statutory lien is a provision under state law that
allows a creditor to make a
financial collection attachment
to certain real estate or personal property or other assets
belonging to an individual or
company which owes unpaid
bills. Debtors are unable to sell
or otherwise transfer that property until such liens are paid,
and in some cases the property can be subject to further
court actions like foreclosures
to force its sale for payment of
the debt.
Lien filings involved in the
Coffey County case include
Lampson International LLC
vs. EDP Renewables North
America LLC, TNT Crane &
Rigging, Inc. vs. Olsen Beal
Associates, Irving Crane, a
division of Irving Equipment
Inc. vs. Waverly Wind Farm

manhunt incident
Two of three granted
probation related to
late-night camper theft
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – The last of three
people responsible for a
January theft and manhunt
incident was sentenced to prison earlier this month.
David E. Coon Jr., 43, Tulsa,
was sentenced to serve 20
months in prison for his role
in the incident. Two others,
Donnie Hill, 46, homeless,
and Bonnie Lynn Bronsert,
46, Tulsa, were sentenced in
March and received probation.
The three were wanted in
January after law enforcement
pulled over a camper that had
been reported stolen minutes
earlier, at 11:57 p.m. Jan. 19, in
Garnett. Coon and Hill reportedly fled the camper when
police pulled it over, while
Bronsert stayed in the vehicle
and was arrested. Coon was
arrested in Lawrence the next
day, driving a stolen Anderson
County Public Works truck.
Hill apparently walked to the
parking lot at Sandras Quick
Stop in freezing temperatures
and hid for three days in a box
truck that had been reported
stolen from Chanute, according to law enforcement reports.
Hill, reportedly suffering from
frostbite, eventually turned
himself in to law enforcement.
The incident prompted
authorities to issue a Code Red
alert because the missing men
were believed to possibly pose
a threat to public safety, but the
alert was worded in a way that

BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Tammy Akers of Garnett
knew her son struggled with depression. She knew he was having a difficult
time this past spring, but she thought
he was doing better.
He wasnt.
Scottie Dale Thomas, age 19, shot and
killed himself May 3. In the nearly two
months that have followed, Akers cant
help but look back for signs she missed,
things that could have been done differently. At the same time, shes also
looking forward, planning a memorial
motorcycle run in Scotties honor to
raise awareness about depression and
suicide, and immersing herself in suicide support groups.
Its typical for friends and family
members, especially a parent, to feel
guilt and anger after someone commits
suicide, Ernest Adams, crisis response
coordinator for Southeast Kansas
Mental Health in Iola, said. The initial outpouring of support from friends
and loved ones tends to diminish after
the funeral, Adams said, and those
left behind can feel lost and alone. Its
important to pay extra attention to survivors for several weeks after a suicide,
he said, and for survivors to seek professional counseling or support from
clergy, as well as join a support group.
You dont necessarily need to be
talking all the time, Adams said. Just
know theres somebody there who can
help you talk through the anger and
guilt.
Life hadnt been easy or kind to
Scottie Thomas. His dad left the family
when he was 8 years old. Akers, as a
single mom, raised him and his sisters
in Kansas City while fighting her own
demons of drug addiction until she got
clean eight years ago. At times, the
family was homeless. Scottie often took
on a parental role, especially with his

TOPEKA – Jobless rates in
Anderson and surrounding
counties held relatively stable
compared to recent months,
but in most places was significantly lower than the same
time last year.
In Anderson County, the
unemployment rate in May
was 4.2 percent, just a little
higher than Aprils rate of 4.0
percent. But when compared to

youngest sister as he babysat when
Akers worked nights.
Scottie battled depression and sought
counseling from a local mental health
center when he was 16. For awhile, he
took medication but weaned himself
from the medicine when he thought he
was doing better. A serious relationship
had ended after two years, but Scottie
still was upset about the break-up. He
struggled to keep a job, working with
a temp agency. He owed money to the
IRS.
Two years ago, after the break-up
with his girlfriend and on his birthday, friends told Akers that Scottie was
missing – and so were some guns. Akers
said Scottie was talked out of harming
himself, but he didnt want to go back
into counseling and he didnt want to be
medicated again. In time, he seemed to
improve.
And even when things were difficult,
Scottie smiled.
He wanted people to be happy,

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA – State sales tax collection reports point to erratic
shopping patterns in Anderson
County in recent months, but
in the end the figures balanced
out to show similar comparisons with last year.
Sales tax collections, as
reported by the Kansas
Department of Revenue in
Topeka, are a good indicator
of economic activity because
they show if businesses bring
in more or fewer retail sales
year after year. In retail-sparse
areas like Anderson County
they are heavily influenced by
vehicle and other large taxable
purchase sales. Sales taxes typically are reported and distributed about a month after they
are collected, which means
retail activity in May will be
reflected in the June report.
The spring months were
inconsistent, with wide swings
in collection amounts. There
were no significant changes in
the local business community
to account for those changes,
such as a major business opening or closing.
Countywide, sales tax collections have dropped 4.9 percent
compared to the same time last
year, with a year-to-date total
of $1,138,268.67 in sales taxes

LINDSAY
JULY 25, 1952-JUNE 21, 2016
Jerry Wayne Lindsay, age
63, of Garnett, Kansas, passed
away Tuesday, June 21, 2016, in
Warren, Michigan.
He was born on July 25, 1952,
in Garnett, Kansas, the son
of Emmett Eugene and Dixie
Claire (Huggins) Lindsay.
Jerry attended elementary school in
Bush City,
Kansas and
later graduated from
Garnett High
School
in
1970. After
Lindsay
high school,
Jerry
followed in his fathers footsteps
and went to work for Willis
Henderson as a truck driver.
He worked for other trucking
companies through the years.
Jerry was also employed by
the city of Garnett for ten years
and most recently he and his
wife Cindy have been driving
for B4 Transportation, out of
Portland, Oregon.
On December 14, 1974, Jerry
married Lucinda (Cindy) Sue
Holloman in Parker, Kansas,
along with Cindys three young
children. Jerry and Cindy made
their home in Bush City for the
first years of their marriage.
After the birth of two more
children, the family moved
to Parker and Moran, Kansas
before settling in Garnett.
Jerrys love was for his family, enjoying time with them.
He had an infectious smile and
could make anyone smile, even
on their worse days.
Jerry is survived by his
wife, Cindy Lindsay, of the
home; mother, Dixie Lindsay,
formerly of Bush City, Kansas;
five children, Paula Miller
and husband Craig of Moran
Kansas,
their
daughter,
Cheyanne Milner and husband

revenue. However, the countys retail sales picture has
seen highs and lows in recent
months. Aprils sales taxes
were 18 percent higher than
2015, and Mays collections
were 11.5 percent higher than
in 2015. But collections dropped
16.4 percent in June, offsetting
much of those two months. It
was difficult for the county to
recover from disappointing
months earlier in the year.
Anderson County levies a
sales tax of 1.5 percent, which
means the county collects 1 and
a half cents of every retail sale.
In Garnett, the largest city in
the county and only one of two
local cities that collect additional sales tax, collections for
the year so far are nearly even
with last year. Disbursements
between July 2015 and June
2016 show the city has collected
$265,759.55 in sales tax revenue,
an increase of just 0.1 percent
compared to the previous year.
But like the county, the city
had two good months in April
and May but fell off in June. In
April, there was a 26.7 percent
increase compared to last year;
in May, the increase was 13.3
percent. In June, sales tax collections dropped 16 percent.
Garnett collects a half-cent
sales tax.
Kincaid is the only other
local city that collects additional sales tax revenue, with a
one-cent sales tax. But because
Kincaid has a small retail sales
base, slight variations can
result in large percentage differences.
For example, Kincaid collected a whopping 175.4 percent more in sales tax in April,
bringing in $1,123.23 compared to last years $407.85.
Collections in the city were 8
percent more in May, but 6.6
percent less in June. But for
the year-to-date, Kincaid lags
last years collections by 27.8
percent, with total revenue of
$5,892.18 compared to $4,611.41
in 2015.
Sales tax reports show how
much sales tax were collected
from local businesses and sent
back to the counties and cities to be spent as part of their
budgets, particularly on capital outlay projects that are earmarked for sales tax collections
like the Anderson County Jail,
or street repairs in Garnett.

for the confusion and clarified
that the alert was intended to

Hill was convicted of felony
theft and possession of methamphetamine. He was sentenced March 28 to 17 months
in prison, but that sentence was
suspended and he was ordered
to probation for 18 months.
Various other charges, mostly related to drug possession,
were dismissed.
Bronsert was convicted of
possession of methamphetamine, while charges of theft,
interference with law enforcement and other drug-related
charges were dismissed. She
was sentenced March 28 to 20
months prison, but that sentence was suspended for 12
months probation.
Coon was convicted May 9
of possession of methamphetamine and felony theft for stealing the county maintenance
truck after fleeing police on

LOCAL
SUICIDE…
FROM PAGE 1A
Akers said. He didnt want
anyone to know how much he
hurt.
The day before Scottie died,
he gave his mother no indication it would be the last time
she saw him alive. He stopped
by her house and talked about
his plans to trade in his truck
and apply for a job. He gave her
a hug.
He seemed so happy,
Akers recalled.
At 12:49 p.m. the next day,
Akers received an alert on her
phone that Scottie had posted
a message on Facebook: My
demons won. Im sorry.
Akers texted and called
Scottie, but he didnt respond.
Akers drove to the house where
Scottie was staying, arriving
seconds after one of his friends
discovered her sons body. The
friend tried to stop her from
going inside, but she did.
An autopsy report indicated
Scottie died instantly, but that
doesnt bring Akers peace. She
still feels guilty for not trying
to give him CPR, even though
he was already gone. All I
could do was stand there and
scream.
Scottie didnt leave a suicide
note, but in retrospect Akers
said he left other clues in the
form of lyrics he wrote for rap
songs.
Scottie found an outlet in rap
music, especially writing and
performing. His lyrics, though,
show his internal struggle with
demons and danger and
pain (that) wont go away.
Akers read his lyrics again and
again after his death, and could
see how much he had been
secretly struggling.
The signs of depression and
suicidal thoughts are different
for everyone, Adams, with SEK
Mental Health, said. Its much
easier to see those signs after
an incident, he said.
For example, some people
become isolated and spend
more time alone, Adams said.
Some people give away their
belongings. Others experience
sudden mood transformations,
appearing happy after an
extended period of sadness.
As a friend or loved one, it
can be difficult to know when
to seek help from an outside
or professional source like
mental health, clergy or local
law enforcement, Adams said.
There may be a stigma about
seeking professional counseling, or the loved one may be
afraid the person will be angry
and become more isolated.
People are scared. Theyll
think Im crazy or never speak
to me again. I still say make
that call and let somebody else
make that determination,
Adams said. The way to avoid
looking back and saying I wish
Id done something is to seek
help.
When someone utters the
word suicide or directly
threatens to harm himself or
herself, its important to seek
immediate professional help or
law enforcement, he said.
As was true in Scotties
case, social media has provided
another outlet that people may
use to make suicidal threats.
Adams said mental health professionals are seeing more and
more calls from people concerned by posts made on social
media outlets.
Its good to keep in mind
the mantra: If you see something, say something, Adams
said. Talk to another loved one,
a parent, law enforcement, a
clergy person or someone who
can intervene, he said.
If we can get things calmed
down for a little bit, sometimes
thats all it takes, he said. It
doesnt mean life is perfect, but
things may start to look bet-
ter.
Social media also can be
a good outlet for survivors.
Akers said she joined several online support groups, and
she has talked to other young
people like Scottie who are
depressed.
There are so many kids like
Scottie. Theres so many out
there, she said.
Anderson County has seen
a significant number of suicides in recent years. Reports
from the Kansas Department
of Health and Environment
showed that more Anderson
County residents died from
suicides in 2014 and 2012 than
from motor vehicle or other
accidents, although the most
common causes of death were
health related. The number of
suicides are small, typically
about three per year, compared
to one or two deaths per year
from vehicle accidents.
Akers is planning a motorcycle memorial ride August 27
in her sons honor, although
details still need to be worked
out. She encourages anyone
who is interested in helping
her organize the event to contact her via Facebook, https://

based Calpine Corporation to
place a 100-turbine wind farm
along thousands of acres of
high ground on the eastern side
of Anderson County, but one of
the organizers of Landowners
Against Windmills, the group
organized to protest the project, says its relevant news.
What you see in these projects is a lot of financial juggling, said Burt Peterson, one
of LAWs organizers. They
can be sold to different players numerous times before the
projects done. Someones dodging paying somebody else what
they owe them.
Supporters of the project in
Anderson County say it will
pay them good money for leasing their land for windmill
sites. Opponents claim the 500foot tall turbines would be a
blight to the local landscape,
devalue neighboring property,
and that the leases force legal
conflicts with pre-existing mineral leases and make landowers foot litigation costs. It is
not known how many acres the
company has secured in local
leases.
County commissioners said
recently a wind test tower in
southeast Anderson County
which was downed by vandals
last month will be subject to
special use permit provisions
in order to be re-erected.
The countys zoning director
allowed the tower to be initially built without being subject
to that process.

last years rate, which was 5.4
percent, the jobless picture was
much more encouraging.
Statewide, unemployment is
the lowest in at least 15 years.
The Kansas unemployment
rate in May was 3.7 percent,
said Kansas Secretary of Labor,
Lana Gordon. Not only does
this represent a steady decline
in the states jobless rate over
the past three months, but this
is also the lowest rate weve
seen in more than fifteen
years.
The states rate was down
from 3.8 percent in April and
from 4.2 percent in May 2015.
The unemployment report
was released by the Kansas
Department of Labor on June
17.
The preliminary seasonally
adjusted job estimates from the
Kansas Department of Labor
and Bureau of Labor Statistics
indicate Kansas nonfarm jobs
increased by 2,600 from April.
Since last month, Kansas private sector jobs increased by
2,400. The largest private sector
over the month job increase
was in Professional and
Business Services.
Over the year, Kansas lost
700 seasonally adjusted total
nonfarm jobs. Kansas gained
400 private sector jobs since
May 2015.
The May report holds mixed
news for the Kansas labor
market, said Tyler Tenbrink,
Senior Labor Economist,
Wedding, Engagement, Anniversary & Birth Announcements Business News
Kansas Department of Labor.
The unemployment rate has
continued downward in recent
months which is a good sign
for people looking for work,
however, job growth across the
state remains stagnant over the
last 12 months.
Over the year, the labor force
expanded by 10,190 persons,
with an increase of 17,270 in
employment and a decrease of
7,080 in unemployment.
The labor force participation
rate was 67.8 percent, down
from 68.1 percent in April and
up from 67.7 percent last May.
In Anderson County, 173
workers were without jobs out
of a labor force of 4,073.
Numbers for other area counties are:

Elites learn hard lesson in Brexit
The elites across the world had a dreadful weekend. Britains historic goodbye to
Europe and it was indeed historic reverberated in capitals on every continent. The
elites, the people who run things (or think
they do and who certainly think they should)
were told, in language plain and unsparing:
You stink!
People who run things, whether a government, a business, or a bureaucracy, as
in Brussels, are not accustomed to hearing
sentiment like that, and it not only stings but
hurts. The smartest folk among them may
learn something. Democracies are watered
by blood, sometimes the real thing but most
of the time the metaphorical stuff will suffice.
The elites in the governments and in the
media fell over themselves and each other
over the weekend reaching for analogies
and comparisons to explain what happened.
One hysteric even likened it to the French
revolution. One pundit at Londons Daily
Telegraph, the bible of the English establishment, says its impossible to overstate how
remarkable the result actually is. Sometimes
hyperbole hits the mark.
Two decades ago, skepticism and mistrust
of the new Europe, where centuries of mistrust and ethnic jealousies were to be washed
away in a cleansing rain of love, beauty,
goodwill and happy thoughts, was a cult of
the old fogies who had fought and won a war
and who now had to learn to love a new consensus forged at the expense of the Britain of
Churchill and Maggie Thatcher. But it didnt
happen quite so simply. Slowly, writes Tim
Stanley in The Telegraph, the establishment
consensus came to resemble not just a conspiracy, but worse, a confederacy of dunces.
A consensus, as we have learned to our
sorrow in America, is deadlier than a conspiracy. A conspiracy can be broken, but a
consensus, when the nice people agree and
agree not to question what they agree on, is
the most dangerous mindset of all.
The prospects for a British exit from
the European Union, conveniently called
Brexit for headline purposes, were not
bright only a year or two ago, which is
why Prime Minister David Cameron finally
agreed to call a referendum. Britain would
surely vote to stay, as it had voted to stay in
the European Common Market in 1975, and
that would settle it for another generation or
two, and probably forever.
The global establishment, that vast syndicate with a yen to run everything, was
against Brexit. So were the financial wizards,
the International Monetary Fund, even the
president of the United States. How could
they be wrong? Werent they the smartest
people anywhere? They certainly thought
so. Then the third world decided to move
north and soon vast unwashed multitudes
arrived, many with no intention of becoming
Englishmen but bringing with them the makings of the misery they were fleeing.
Even on the eve of the voting the elites
reassured themselves that there was nothing
to worry about. The momentum was with
the nice people and the campaign called
Remain. The public-opinion polls said the
vote was too close to call, and the bookies
bookmaking is legal in Britain said
a good result was in the bag. And then the
deluge, which only the willfully blind could
not see coming. From the Labor strongholds
in the northeast, up against the Scottish
border, to the Tory towns in the southeast
of Mrs. Miniver and roast beef on Sunday,
English voters gave the verdict told in the
snappy slang of the London tabloid Sun:
See EU later! Scotland, Northern Ireland
and London voted to stay put, but the vote in
England and Wales was more than sufficient.
In the wake of the 52 percent to 48 percent
vote to leave, not a landslide but decisive
enough, some of the 2.2 million Londoners
who voted to stay now say theyre dreaming
of declaring their own independence to stay
with Europe.
On the morning after, in the ruins and
litter of defeat, many foolish things are imagined and some of them are actually said. But
cooler heads will pick through the debris of a
campaign and a new consensus will emerge.
Stock markets that fell will rise again. Money
that left will return. The elites will get over
their pout, perhaps having learned a lesson.
Their world that was turned upside down
will be set aright, but it will be a different
world. They might as well get used to it.
Thats the lesson of Brexit.

I thought in Kansas in non-smoking businesses like restaurants, smokers outside
should be 50 feet from the door. But theres a
restaurant in town where smokers sit right
at the front door or stand at the front door. So
I was wondering whats going on?
Heres an update from over here at the
Waverly Wind Farm to the folks in Anderson
County. The latest is that a number of the
contractors on our wind farm project have
not been paid according to their contracts
and have filed liens in court. Look it up in
the court over here. This thing is bad news.
I hope you are smarter than we were. Thank
you.
Are you kidding me? The city wants to build

Heed Trumps warning about Muslim immigration
One of Donald Trumps political skills is
giving widely condemned speeches.
His post-Orlando jeremiad fit the pattern.
There is something so inherently inflammatory in Trumps delivery that he could read
the Gettysburg Address and some listeners
would wonder how he could possibly say
such a thing.
The kernel of Trumps speech was rather
obvious: The bottom line is that the only
reason the killer was in America in the first
place was because we allowed his family to
come here. That is a fact, and its a fact we
need to talk about.
The reaction of much of the opinion elite
was nearly instantaneous: Whatever we do,
lets not talk about that fact.
Countless articles have been written on
how much better we are at assimilating
Muslim immigrants than Europe is, usually
with back-patting over our openness and
fluidity as a society in contrast to the self-defeating insularity of a country like France.
This may be true, but the assumption that
we have the magic formula is under stress
now that weve repeatedly suffered mass
killings by second-generation immigrants.
The Islamic State model of inspiring lone
wolves already here is dependent on loosely
assimilated American Muslims susceptible
to its hateful appeals. Disturbingly, it is finding takers.
In six months, terrorists have killed more
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
than 60 people on our shores; two of the perpetrators were the sons of immigrants, and
one an immigrant herself.
One of the reasons we have avoided the
problems of a France may be sheer numbers. France has 50 percent more Muslim
immigrants than we do, even though it is a
much smaller country. Only 1 percent of the
U.S. population is Muslim; 7.5 percent of the
French population is.
On the current trajectory, we will take in 1
million Muslim immigrants or more over the
next decade. It cant be out of bounds to ask
whether thats a good idea.
Or it shouldnt be. The immigration debate
is so encrusted with unexamined pieties that
any suggestion that we reduce the number
or the composition of the current immigrant
flow is taken as an attempt to kneecap the
Statue of Liberty.
At bottom, the Trump doctrine on immigration is that our policy should serve our
values and interests, and the status quo
fails on both counts. That said, his proposed
Muslim ban is a mistake. It communicates
a hostility to all Muslims and, besides, is
unworkable.
Responsibility for Omar Mateens heinous act is all his own, but it is certainly
relevant that his Dear Old Dad supports the
Taliban and hates gays. He is exactly the
kind of immigrant you would hope to deny
the priceless privilege of coming here.
Mark Krikorian of the Center for
Immigration Studies proposes to reduce
legal immigration. If we eliminated the visa
lottery, tightened the criteria for family unification and accepted fewer refugees, we
would diminish the number of low-skilled
immigrants who have trouble thriving here,
and at the margins, the number of new
Muslim entrants.
Donald Trump does the cause of immigration restriction a disservice by rendering
it in caricature. But the questions he raises
wont go away, and they shouldnt.

Winners, losers still undetermined after education fight
After a two-day special legislative session
which adjourned in the dusk of Friday, we
need to see just who won what, or at least
who claims credit for what leading into the
election season.
Did the Kansas Supreme Court win by
using its poweressentially the threat to
close schoolsto force lawmakers to provide
equal support for all school districts that
have property tax-supported Local Option
Budgets? Yes.
So, the court forced legislators to provide
equal state support for school districts with
those local option budgets by threatening to
close schools. It cost about $38 million to provide that equal support and the majority of
that money wont be spent to hire teachers or
buy textbooks or even purchase playground
equipment, but will instead allow school districts to cut their property taxes for patrons
or at least not increase them.
Thats not exactly like rescuing children
from a burning barn, is it?
The concept, the state treating all districts equally, sounds good and makes sense,
doesnt it? It loses a little of that glow when
most of the additional money spent will allow
districts to lower property taxes, but well,
this is government. Probably, we could stop
a dab short of asserting that the court forced
the Legislature to save the children.
But that school-closing threat clearly
forced the Legislatures hand, and those
spooky black-robed justices loomed large
during the session, extorting that $38 million
that provides equal treatment of school districts from legislators and their constituents
that probably the Legislature should have
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
provided without the threat.
You probably want to stop a little short of
saying that the court forced the Legislature to
do the right thing and had to use the extraordinary school-closing threat to accomplish
that goal. Not sure how far short of that point
you want to stop, because its doubtful that
without that threat, there wouldnt have
been a special session and equalizing what
amounts to less than one percent of the total
state aid to schools wouldnt have been done.
Lets wait a minute to see who takes credit
for what.
Lawmakers prevented that school closing,
or threat of school closing. How much credit
do they get? Did they prevent the courts from
closing schools, or did lawmakers116-6 in
the House and 38-1 in the Senatejust follow
the constitution? Well see how they portray
the effort, and we already have an idea how
it may play out. If you put one less ice cube in
your highball, can you claim that somehow
youve saved a polar bear?
And the court can take creditand
maintain its assertion that it is ensuring
even-handed constitutional treatment of public educationfor forcing that change in
school finance law that probably shouldnt
have ever been necessary if legislators had
read the constitution. But, thats a little like
asserting that by not buying that Donald
Trump tie, youve saved a panda somewhere
in China next to the tie factory.
Theres little chance that descriptions
of the special session, the wheedling about
where the money comes from in the state
budget for that $38 million fix to equalize support for those LOB districts, will come down
to just abiding by the constitution which
requires the state to make sure that with
relatively equal local property tax effort,
all children get access to relatively uniform
educational opportunities.
And, dont forget that the governor will
claim credit for the fix, too. Because nobody
isnt for equal educational opportunity, and
he was the one who thought up the idea
of bringing the Legislature back to town
Thursday for the special session, understanding that most legislators didnt want to spend
the weekend off the campaign trailand
unable to accept campaign contributions
for more than two days.
The winner? Its probably up to voters to
decide

Archeology training at 1986: Central Heights discusses Saturday detention
Council Grove store
The past few days I have
been told by several people that
they had heard that I was out of
town. Well, my answer was you
most certainly heard right.
Yes, I attended the 41st KATP
(Kansas Archeology Training
Program) Field School June
2-17 2016 held in Council Grove,
Ks.
The KATP field school, held
each June, offers a unique
opportunity for members of the
public to work alongside professional and vocational archeologists. Participants assist
archeologists in surveying for
archeological sites, excavating
sites, and cleaning/cataloging
artifacts in the lab. They learn
related techniques in various
courses, which may be taken
for college credit.
The volunteer program was
established in 1974 and continues under the joint sponsorship of the Kansas Historical
Society (KSHS) and the Kansas
Anthropological Association
(KAA). No prior experience
is necessary to take part.
Participants may participate
for the full two weeks (like I
did) or may attend as little as
a single day. Project fees are
quite reasonable.
This years project was located at the Last Chance Store
site 14MO367 in Council Grove,
Ks.
The simple stone structure, occupies a corner lot at
502 West Main Street in downtown Council Grove, it may not
appear very imposing, but it
is significant in the history of
the American West. Situated

on the north side of the Santa
Fe Trail, some five blocks west
of the Neosho River crossing,
in the mid-nineteenth century
The Last Chance Store was the
last place where freighters and
travelers could obtain supplies
between Council Grove and
Santa Fe, New Mexico, a distance of more than 600 miles.
The store stock was brought
from St.Louis, Mo., by boat to
Westport Landing and then by
mule teams to Council Grove.
The Last Chance Store was one
of the first stores in the settlement. An old wooden sign once
hung on the front of the store
read as follows: Last Chance To
Buy Beans, Bacon & Whiskey.
Through the years this old
stone building served as a trading post, residence, polling
place, refuge for enslaved people, grocery store, corn crib,
hay storage, loan association
building, antique store and
storehouse. It was also used as
a post office and a government
trading house, where KAW
Indians from the nearby reservation could trade for manufactured goods.

Remember to report
planted acres to FSA
Area farmer and ranchers
should remember that filing an
accurate acreage report for all
crops and land uses, including
failed acreage and prevented
planting acreage, will prevent
the loss of benefits for a variety
of Farm Service Agency (FSA)
programs. Failed acreage must
be reported within 15 days of
the disaster event and before
disposition of the crop. Failed
acreage only needs reported
if another crop will be plant-
ed for harvest in 2016, once
the initial crop is destroyed.
Prevented planting must be
reported no later than 15 days
after the final planting date.
July 15, 2016, is the final
date to report CRP, corn, grain
sorghum, soybeans, and sunflowers. Please contact the

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 28, 2016
Historical society hears about beekeeping
Marlin McGowin, Greeley, shared
his experiences as a newby beekeeper
with the Anderson County Historical
Society at the June 16th monthly meeting.
McGowin began working with
his bees about a year ago. He showed
a beehive with honey trays made of
waxed material or plastic. Each hive
is assembled with two brood boxes on
the bottom, filled with honey trays.
This honey is the bees food supply as
they must store enough honey to survive the winter, and it is not harvested
from the brood boxes. Bees maintain
the inside hive temperature at 92 to 93
degrees. During the summer months, if
the inside temperature is too high, the
bees will gather on the outside of the
brood boxes to cool off. This is called
bearding.
When the brood boxes are 80 percent
full of honey, the beekeeper adds a more
shallow box on top, called a super. Fifty
to sixty pounds of honey can be harvest-
ed from a super. To produce one pound
of honey the bees make up to 2 million
flower visits to gather enough nectar
and fly over 55,000 miles to do it.
A good hive can house 35,000 to 40,000
bees. The colony is made up of one
queen, female worker bees, and male
drones. To establish a hive, a beekeeper
can buy a queen with 12,000 to 13,000
bees for about $140. About 80 percent of
the bees will be female workers, and the
remainder male drones. The beekeeper
will hang the queen in the hive, and
spray the honey trays with sugar water.
The bees will then stay with the queen
to maintain the hive.
The queen lives three to five years
and is capable of laying one million
eggs. The female worker bees reproduce the male drones. They also make
queen bees by selecting an egg, and producing a royal jelly that they apply to
the egg. A queen bee is larger than the
others and develops in 16 days. Without
the royal jelly the egg would have produced a male drone.
The female worker bees clean the
hive, gather nectar, and produce the
honey. They develop from an egg in 21
days and live about six weeks. While
the queen can sting multiple times, the
female workers can only sting once and
die within minutes of doing so. The
male drone develops from an egg in 24
days, and his role is to eat and mate.
To harvest the honey, a beekeeper
will often smoke the hive prior to working with it. Smoking calms the bees.
McGowin explained that he does not
work with the hives during bad weather, as the bees are irritable and more
likely to sting. He showed clothing
worn while working with his hives.
Prior to the program 22 members
and guests enjoyed a carry-in dinner. During the business meeting
President Kristie Kinney introduced
guests Paula Scott, a candidate for City
Commissioner, and Julie Heck, a candidate for County Clerk.
Kristie gave an update of recent
activities.
She explained options of
annual memberships for $5, or lifetime
memberships for $50. Thank yous were
extended to Richard Miller and Shirley
Roeckers for their work cleaning and
organizing exhibits in the museum. She
also expressed appreciation to Richard
Miller, Ivan Mader, and Herb Waring
for installing the museum auditorium
air conditioner in time for this meeting.
All present were asked to express our
thanks to Mike Sibley and his group
of high school students for completing
seasonal maintenance and roof repairs
at the Gerth Cabin in Greeley.
Kristie reported there are 132 individuals following our facebook page.
All can see updated information about

Four Winds NSDAR presents Braille flags, Bible to area youth
Four Winds Chapter of
the National Society of the
Daughters of the American
Revolution presented Braille
flags and a Bible to area students.
The Four Winds Chapter
of the NSDAR met on
Thursday, June 23, at 1:30 in
Garnett, KS. Connie Becker,
U.S. flag chair, presented two
Braille United States flags to
Brogan Falls and Braelyn
Falls of rural Leroy. Brogan
and Braelyn were diagnosed
with Stargardts Disease several years ago. This disease
is an untreatable genetic disorder and a leading cause
of juvenile blindness. The

The chapter worked closely with the Newton NSDAR
Chapter to also acquire a
complete Bible written in
Braille. It consists of 35 volumes and is 5 feet in length.
The Bible is assembled by
Lutheran Braille Workers
who engage some 5,000 volunteers in over 150 work centers throughout the United
States who joyfully produce
approximately 250,000 volumes a year. The Holy Cross
Lutheran Church in Wichita
is the closest place that
assembles part of the Bible
in Kansas. The Lutheran
Braille Workers of Yucaipa,
California shipped the Bible.
The Four Winds Chapter
of NSDAR was honored to
make this presentation.

This vacation, remember agriculture Seekers Not Slackers
All across our country
Americans are checking
their automobiles, making
sure their GPS works, studying road maps, printing off
directions from MapQuest
and adding another item to
their to do lists in preparation for long-awaited summer
vacations.
Anticipation will soar and
expectations will rise as husband and wife teams take to
the American highways and
byways in search of rest, peace
and tranquility. Children will
ensure this dream remains
only partially fulfilled with
road questions like: Im hungry, I want a hamburger and
fries. Mommy, Billy is teasing me. Are we there yet?
and I dont want to go on
vacation, I want to go back
home.
Regardless of such comments, mom and dad will
remain true to their plans
and push ahead. After all, the
money spent for the family
vacation usually represents
cash left over after paying
for the familys food, clothing
and other necessities.
Oftentimes money to pay
for vacations goes on plastic and is paid for later with
interest. Parents will think to
themselves, We worked hard
for this time off. We deserve it
INSIGHT
By John Schlageck

and were going to enjoy it.
Americans remain the
luckiest, most pampered people in the world. Try to imagine what it would be like if we
had to be self-sufficient.
What would happen to leisure time if others did not
produce the many things families need?
Although we all work
throughout the year, we
should not forget those people who also work hard and
help us free up time so we
can vacation with loved ones.
One such group is the Kansas
farmer.
Farmers and ranchers help
meet our food, fuel and fiber
needs. These needs are met
without worry of availability.
The next time you walk
into your local supermarket
remember milk comes from
carefully cared for dairy
cows on someones farm.
Remember the butcher performs a service in cutting and
packaging the hamburger,
chops and steak you and your
family eat. Dont forget the
Kansas farmer and rancher
cares for and produces pork
and beef. Styrofoam cartons
only hold the eggs which are
laid by hens on the farm.
No other nation of people on this planet enjoys the
amount of free time we do. No
other country can claim that
so few people feed so many.
Today less than 2 percent
of our nations population are
farmers. They are capable of
supplying the other 98 percent with most of the products
we eat, wear and use to fuel
our vehicles.
Remember as you plot your
vacation course this summer,
and as you motor through the
states highways, to notice the
fields of corn, soybeans, milo,
alfalfa and recently harvested
wheat. Take a look at the cattle, hogs and sheep grazing in
the many pastures.
Dont forget Kansas farmers and ranchers help fulfill
our food, fuel and fiber needs.
These professionals also care
for the livestock and crops
you see as you drive by. They
do so with care and compassion.

BUSINESS
BUSINESS BEAT
Just one word: Video
Regardless how small your
business is or how tight your
marketing budget is, almost
every business nowadays can
afford its own promotional
video to post online or on your
social media. Its impact can be
pretty astonishing.
Your business should have
its own video because video is
increasingly sought after and
important to customers seeking information and looking
for assurance of your legitimacy.
One large retailers customer survey found 90 percent of
its online shoppers said they
found video helpful in making
a buying decision. The average Internet user is exposed
to 32 online videos per month,
and data from the Online
Publishers Association says 80
percent of Internet users recall
watching a video online in the
past 30 days, and of those 46
percent either sought more
information on the subject or
visited the website in the ad
and 12 percent purchased the
specific product featured in
the ad.
Digital video has killed the
old days of expensive production of video commercials from
your local or regional TV station. Nowadays you can either
a) do your own if you have a
little computer smarts; or b)
find someone with a little computer smarts and hire them to
do it for you. Either way, with
a little work theres no reason
you cant do a decent video for
less than $100.
Content marketing is the
popular name given these days
to a business effort that provides relevant, valuable information to attract and engage
customers who are tuned in to
that particular subject matter

and hopefully making a sale
after engaging them. Besides
a simple video showing off
your restaurant and its menu,
some of the tasty dishes and
your cute wait staff, you might
show a video of the way you
fold those cool napkin roses for
place settings, or your trick for
keeping an omelet from being
gooey on one end. If youre an
HVAC guy, show where the filter is on a common unit and
how to change it.
You need 1) a script, even
if its just a list of things you
want to be sure to mention; 2)
a voiceover recorded by you or
someone comfortable with the
material; 3) good, well-lit video
clips or still photos 4) computer software and the knowledge to put it together. Google
names like iMovie, Camtasia
or ScreenFlow.
Or, find someone to do it
for you. Your local high school
probably has a technology class
and kids who do this every day.
Dont forget Craigslist as a good
source for video producers too,
but shop for the right price.

Mid-America Nutrition hires Hagedorn-Krass
The Policy Board of Mid-America
Nutrition Program recently hired
Martha Hagedorn-Krass as its Executive
Director.
Hagedorn-Krass succeeds
Penny Stras, who
resigned earlier this
year.
On the job for two
and a half months now,
Hagedorn-Krass says
she feels comfortable
guiding the organization through a transitional period. Mid- Hagedorn-Krass
America
Nutrition
is losing a large and
longstanding catering contract with
the Miami County Jail at the end of
2016. For over twenty years, the profit
from this contract allowed Mid-America
Nutrition the luxury of not emphasizing
fundraising.
Miami County will contract instead
with Consolidated Correctional Food
Service, who will charge $5.00 for three
meals a day for each inmate. MidAmerica Nutrition currently provides
Miami County inmates three meals a
day for $12.76. Hagedorn-Krass says that
Mid-America Nutrition provides meals
that meet the daily nutritional requirements, jails only need to meet caloric
requirements.
For the upcoming fiscal year, which
begins on October 1, 2016, Mid-America
Nutrition expects to raise an additional $160,000 in operational funding. The
program relies on a variety of resources to offset the costs associated with
the direct service of meal provision to
seniors. These resources include meal
site donations, state and federal grants,
USDA commodities, county allocations,
private donations, Medicaid (KanCare),
and contract catering.
Hagedorn-Krass has a background in
nonprofit management and fundraising,
having served as the Executive Director
of Ronald McDonald House Charities
of Northeast Kansas and Friends
of Johnson County Developmental
Supports. She oversaw successful capital improvement campaigns for both
nonprofit organizations in addition to
building operational revenue streams
for the Ronald McDonald House.

The return to Jerusalem Notice to sell Burris property Notice to sell Brooks property
Nehemiah was one of the
exiles taken from Jerusalem to
Persia during the Babylonian
captivity. Nehemiah became
a member of the royal court
of the king. His responsibility
was to choose wine and safeguard it from being poisoned
by someone opposed to the
king. This position provided
access to the king and secured
Nehemiah prestige and influence in the royal court.
When Nehemiah received
distressing news concerning
the rebuilding of Jerusalem,
ordered by King Cyrus after
the Babylonian invasion, he
secured permission from the
king to return there and to
check on the rebuilding project
himself. Nehemiah put together a plan and finished the project in spite of severe opposition.
After completion of the project Ezra the priest led the exiles
in a new commitment to Gods
law which we find recorded in
Nehemiah 9:1-38. Within this
text the people confess their
sins. In this prayer of promise
the Levites, who were assistants to the priests, addressed
God on behalf of the people.
They presented God to the people as Creator and Redeemer,
Lawgiver and disciplinarian,
Savior and Judge. Because
of captivity many of the people had been born in foreign
lands and were not familiar
with the heritage of the Jewish
people. In short the teaching
began at the beginning. It was
explained that God made the
heavens and the earth and all
that was in it, the seas and all
that was in them and that God
was able to preserve them and
is worshipped by the host of
WEEKLY
DEVOTIONAL

heaven.
The Levites also explained
how God had chosen Abram and
how God had told him to leave
his own country and search for
a new country whose maker
and builder was God. They
also explained how Abram had
found favor with God because
of his faithful heart. They
explained the Egyptian captivity and the exodus from Egypt
under Moses. They explained
the commandments given by
God to Moses and how the people had failed to obey God and
enter the promise land. The
Levites also explained the 40
years of wilderness wandering in the desert where God
sustained them with food and
water and the entrance into
the promise land. A land flowing with milk and honey yet
the people disobeyed God again
and again and went in and out
of captivity.
Ezras story is presented in the book of Nehemiah
to emphasize the truth that
rebuilding the Law of God in
the hearts of the people was
just as important as rebuilding the wall. Ezra successfully put the law into the minds
and hearts of the people. If we
make a covenant with God he
says in Jeremiah 31:34c; For
I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins
no more.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 28, 2016
LOCAL
Water conservation techniques being tested on volunteer farms
A new type of farm has been established in Kansas with a primary focus
on water conservation in addition to
crops and livestock.
Three Water Technology Farms
have been created recently in response
to public input and identified in the
Long-Term Vision for the Future
of Water Supply in Kansas (Water
Vision). They are demonstration farms
that allow the installation and testing
of the latest irrigation technologies on
a whole field scale.
Throughout the past two years of
the public input process of the Water
Vision, producers shared with the team
the state was diverse enough that each
tool would not necessarily produce the
same results and solutions could not be
treated as a one size fits all. Director of
the Kansas Water Office (KWO), Tracy
Streeter, believed demonstration farms
featuring the latest developed technology for water conservation was the best
way to test the tools in each region.
Based on the feedback we received
during the development of the Water
Vision, demonstrating the effectiveness of the latest technology in irrigation water management in various
soil and water conditions across the
High Plains Aquifer was critical to
increasing the confidence and spurring increased adoption by irrigators,
Streeter said.
To help get Water Technology Farms
established for research, KWO is providing financial support for the installation of equipment for those adopting a Water Conservation Area (WCA)
and participating as a demonstration
farm. KWO is also providing financial
assistance to Kansas State Universitys
efforts to provide technical support to
all technology farms. K-State became
deeply involved in establishing and
monitoring the farms to help answer
the producers specific questions and
concerns about the new technology.
K-State is working with partners
to help address questions and concerns so in the future, farmers will
fully embrace the technology, said
Jonathan Aguilar, water resource
engineer with K-State Research and
Extension, based in Garden City,
Kansas. Each farm is set up slightly
different, depending on the primary
concern the producer has. For example, one farm has three adjacent spans
with different modes of application
for comparison purposes. In all fields,
soil moisture sensors are installed and
tested for accuracy as feedback or for
its performance in the different soil
types.
The first and largest to be developed
for the 2016 growing season is T&O
Farms, LLC in Finney County. Owned
by Tom Willis, the farm consists of
10 sprinkler systems, four equipped
with Dragon-Line, which provides
increased efficiency through precision irrigation by delivering water
and nutrients directly into the soil
instead of spraying the whole canopy and field, and four equipped with
low pressure spray nozzles. Each field
has two soil moisture probes. The systems are fully automated with water
use, groundwater levels and moisture
sensor data tied to a real time website. Technical oversight is provided
by Seaman Consulting, Hugoton and
K-State Research and Extension.
I want to prove the concept that we
can conserve water and still achieve
profitable yields using the technologies
we are pioneering on my farm, Tom
Willis said. My motivation for participating in the technology farm was
two-fold. First, I am part of Conestoga
Energy, LLC, which has two ethanol
plants in western Kansas. Having a
reliable source of locally produced corn
and sorghum are vitally important for
our company and we have a vested
interest in helping extend the life of the
aquifer for as long as we can.
Willis further stated, Secondly, I
have a son who is returning home to
farm after a distinguished career in the
United States Army. Hopefully, these
technologies will help extend the life
of the aquifer so he and others of his
generation can continue to irrigate and
farm profitably in southwest Kansas
for years to come.
Two other Water Technology Farms
demonstrating results for the 2016
growing season are The Garden City
Company/Dwane Roth Farm in Finney
County and Integrated Livestock
Solutions (ILS) Farm in Pawnee
County.
The Garden City Company/Dwane
Roth Farm consists of the installation of
Dragon-Line on a sprinkler system and
will evaluate its effectiveness compared
to spray and nozzles. The farm is unique
as the water source is both ground and
surface water. At this farm the irrigation companies were approached by
the owner and asked to participate and
contribute through in-kind donations of
equipment or services.
The ILS Farm is comparing DragonLine to regular spray nozzles on a
higher volume well than those wells
being studied in Finney County. A
major supporter of funding for most
of this project is the Water Protection
Association of Central Kansas
(WaterPack).
All of the Regional Advisory
Committees covering the Ogallala
Aquifer are developing action plans
to conserve water, Streeter said.
Coupling Water Technology Farms
with Water Conservation Areas initiated by the landowner will hopefully
demonstrate that technology adoption
can mitigate any economic impacts
and result in reduction in water use to
conserve and extend the useable life of
the Ogallala.
Kansas Department of Agriculture
is also developing a WCA for the entire
T&O Farms, LLC that will document
water use reductions Willis has already
made.
Interest for additional farms
during the 2017 growing season has
been expressed. Field days are being
planned for the Water Technology
Farms for August 2016. A website is
being designed to look at the live data
from the T&O Farms, LLC. Once finished, a link for it can be found on the
Water Vision page at www.kwo.org.
