Snakes on a lake: Mostly harmless
Wildlife official says snakes
should be avoided, but
theres little danger
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-03-2014 / Vickie Moss
A water snake, possibly a plainbelly water snake, slithers through the water
at Crystal Lake Sunday afternoon, June 1. Water snakes in Kansas are typically not venomous species.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A woman who says she and
her children have been run off of city
lakes because of snakes is right to be
cautious but shouldnt be fearful, a local
wildlife expert says.
Thats because all, or at least nearly
all, water snakes in Kansas are nonvenomous, Josh DeHoux, Anderson
Countys Natural Resource Officer from
the Kansas Department of Wildlife and
Parks, said.
Melissa Wilson said she is relatively
new to Garnett and frequently takes her
children fishing at either Lake Garnett
in the northern part of the city, or
Crystal Lake (commonly known as the
South Lake), in the southern end of
the city. But she said the family has
abandoned Lake Garnett because there
are too many snakes, and her children
wont go fishing at Crystal Lake without
first picking out a snake whacking
stick.
Theyll come right out of the water
at you, Wilson told Garnett city commissioners at a meeting last week.
Snakes dont appear to be anymore or
less frequent this year compared to typical years, DeHoux said. He spends quite
a bit of time near local lakes, either for
personal or professional reasons, and
said snakes always are quite common in
the spring and summer.
This time of year, all the snakes are
out, he said.
Its not surprising that people who
Fishing for fun
like to fish often see snakes near established fishing spots, he said. Thats
because fish and aquatic animals have
learned the spots are frequently filled
with food from bait and other fish. Fish
often return to the site for an easy meal,
and snakes likely think that means its
dinnertime, too.
Most water snakes eat aquatic creatures like other snakes and amphibians.
There are three common types of water
snakes in Kansas: the plainbelly water
snake, northern water snake and diamondback water snake. The plainbelly
water snake can travel quite a distance
outside of the water, too. Because they
resemble their venomous cousins like
the cottonmouth, people often are afraid
of them.
But the cottonmouth, or water moccasin, is likely not found in this part of

Local election races
set, few surprises
Incumbent Jim Johnson
runs unopposed, few
file for local positions
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Anderson County
Commissioner Jim Johnson
likely will be unchallenged in
the November election, as no
other Republicans or Democrats
filed for his District 1 seat.
Only a handful of people filed
for more than 50 other ballot
positions for precinct committee men and women, or township clerks in the county.
Even though the low number
of filings will make for a slim
local ballot, several key state
and federal races likely will
draw voters to the poll during
the mid-term elections.
Locally, only two people
have filed for township clerk.
They are Paul Holman in Welda
and Terry Jasper in Lincoln.
Other township clerk positions
likely will be decided by writein votes during the election.
The ballot also will include
positions for precinct committee men and women who represent each party, Republican and
Democrat, at the most basic,
grassroots level. Precinct committee posts are most important in the event of a vacancy in
an elected office, as they decide
who should be appointed to fill

City targets junk in cleanup effort
Police help identify
properties in violation
of city junk laws
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Efforts to remove
junk and eyesores from properties in the city limits of Garnett
so far have covered about a
quarter of the city, and revealed
at least one issue disposal of
old tires – that hinders their
efforts, officials reported last
week.
Garnett police recently have
been inspecting properties for
junk, disabled vehicles and tall
grass at the request of City
Manager Joyce Martin. Officers
are hand-delivering notices to
people about city rules requir-
ing removal of such items, and
so far theyve checked about
a quarter of the city, Martin
and Police Chief Kevin Pekarek
reported to commissioners at
their regular meeting Tuesday,
May 27.
The work is part of ongoing
efforts to improve the appearance of properties in the city.
It followed a recent change of
duties, in which the citys recre-
ation and zoning director took
over all city recreation duties,
including those handled in a
position that no longer exists.
Zoning responsibilities were
doled out to other employees.
I dont want to say its been
neglected, but its gotten ahead
of us, Martin said.

Cable investing $1.2M for Garnett system
Company official says
system upgrades will
be finished soon
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Officials with the
City of Garnetts cable and
Internet provider say the company plans to invest $1.2 million
on infrastructure and upgrades
in Garnett, and provided a
new timetable for long-awaited
changes in the system.
Shawn Beqaj, a vice president with Vyve Broadband,
asked Garnett city commissioners and customers to be a little
more patient about continued
problems with the system, and
said they should expect to see
major improvements within six
months. The company bought
the beleaguered Allegiance
Communications system more
than a year ago, and in February
2013 Beqaj promised improvements within a six month timeframe. But more than a year
later, problems remain and city
leaders questioned if the company could still hold up their
end of the deal.
Vyve, formerly known as
BCI Broadband, encountered
several unexpected problems
and issues with their plans for
Allegiance, Beqaj said. The system itself was in poor shape,
and they faced numerous delays
obtaining permits for some of
the right-of-ways.
This kind of a stumble is
something were, frankly, unaccustomed to dealing with. It
doesnt mean weve changed
our plan, Beqaj said.
Because of the problems,

JUNK…
FROM PAGE 1A
mostly positive. One of the
most common problems police
had encountered was disposal
of old tires. People must pay a
fee to dispose of old tires, and
depending on the facility the
fee can range between $2 to $12
per tire.
A lot of people say its too
expensive to get rid of them.
I say tickets (for violating the
citys junk removal policy) can
be more expensive, Pekarek
said. Tires have always been a
problem to get rid of.
City officials discussed the
possibility of finding a program that would take the tires
at a low cost. During citywide
cleanup efforts twice a year,
tires are not accepted because
it also costs the city to dispose
of them.
Pekarek said another common problem was junk cars.
Owners often say theyve been
meaning to fix the cars, but
they dont have the time or
money to do so.

to give a specific timetable
for improvements. However,
he said customers should see
changes within another six
months.
The company has about 300
customers in Garnett, or about
19 percent of the market share
for its services. Beqaj said the
companys goal was to increase
that market share to 50 percent,
and Vyve was investing a lot of
money toward that goal. It was
expected to cost about $1.2 million to install fiber optic cable
between Ottawa and Garnett,
which would improve Internet
speeds up to 105 megabytes per
second and all-digital, high-definition television.
Imagine spending $1.2 million on 300 customers, Beqaj
said. This isnt a pie in the
sky scheme. Weve done this in
many states and cities.
Beqaj also addressed some
common complaints among
local customers, such as poor
customer service at the compa-
nys call center and recent loss
of popular television channels.
Locally, customers find they
have better response by calling
staff at City Hall, who then forward their complaints to Vyve
officials.
The call center was based
in an Oklahoma city that for
some reason has a limited pool
of qualified employees, Beqaj
said. The company improved
technology and doubled the
size of its call center, but it
has been difficult to find and
train qualified employees, he
said. Continued problems with
the system, outages and loss
of popular channels also have
increased call volume.
The company recently lost
several channels as a result of
failed negotiations with Viacom.
Beqaj said Viacom simply
wanted too much money, and
keeping the channels would
have required a significant rate
increase to customers. Because
Vyve is trying to entice new
customers with low rates, company officials do not want to
increase rates, he said. Vyve
has since replaced seven of the

very excited for our local customers. … I was excited by your
plan and I was let down when it
didnt bear fruit.
Coming in and asking for
forgiveness is not something
were used to doing, Beqaj
said, citing other cities where
the company had been very
successful. A lot had to do
with the company we bought.
Perhaps we were a little too
confident in our ability to turn
that around.

The most notable state race
will see Gov. Sam Brownback
challenged by House Minortiy

Brownback is heavily expected

expected to be heavily watched

Another race expected to

Jenkins will be challenged

the state. In fact, only one official record of a cottonmouth
in Kansas has been recorded,
in Cherokee County in the
extreme southeastern part
of the state, according to several websites about snakes in
Kansas.
Yet even though water snakes
may not be poisonous, its still a
good idea to be cautious around
them, DeHoux said. A bite or
scratch likely will hurt and
bleed a lot, and wild animals
can carry germs and diseases
like salmonella.
Even outside the water,
most snake species in Kansas
arent venomous. A presentation put together for the City
of Lawrence said 38 snake species can be found in Kansas,
and only five are venomous.
Of those, only two or three
venomous species are found in
this part of Kansas, DeHoux
said. They mostly include the
copperhead and massasauga
rattlesnake. Even less common
is the intimidating and large
timber rattlesnake, which also
is a protected species meaning
it is illegal to kill it. Venomous
snakes are more likely to be
found in wooded areas.
Snakes get a bad rap, DeHoux
said. Most species are beneficial, and bites are not common.
A lot of people hate snakes,
but they have a value in their
ability to control the rodent
population, DeHoux said.
Even though the likelihood of
a poisonous snake is low, dont
mess with them.
The classic mantra applies,
he said: Leave them alone, and
theyll likely leave you alone.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 3, 2014
EDITORIAL
The bitter truth about local cable
Garnetts cable TV situation has been
the focus of cussing and discussing for more
than 20 years. The down side is the industry
trend of TV viewing just doesnt support
cable TV in small towns anymore, and the
situation with cable here wont get any
cheaper and wont get any better.
Its a far cry from the old days. Cable
TV companies were a lot like the old Ma &
Pa phone companies that started up in the
area in the 1920s. Cable companies literally
started up as small businesses in a lot of
communities the size of Garnett in the late
1960s and 1970s, with local operations or
small multi-city operations arising out of
private investment. They cut deals with the
cities to string cable on the city utility poles
and could go to any house or business with
electrical service. In those days you knew
the guy who ran the local cable TV office
and you probably knew the guy who drove
the bucket truck and serviced or installed
your lines.
Beyond the initial start-up costs, it was
phenomenally profitable. When dad got
used to a clear picture of the ball game,
without having to have one of his kids stand
by the TV with one hand on the antenna and
one holding a pie plate to boost the reception, the cable industry exploded. Millions
of subscribers and advertisers who wanted
that captive cable audience gave birth to private programming companies that re-sold
programming you couldnt get with your
antenna remember when HBO came out?
The rise of cable and the profitability of it
meant TV stations were a hot commodity
and more licenses were granted for them,
and big companies started buying up all the
Mom & Pops and combining them.
Suddenly the local cable office closed.
You rarely saw the guy in the truck. The
mergers made the media monoliths like
Time-Warner Cable billions upon billions of
dollars and fueled the entertainment industry.
But the advent of the small satellite dish
spelled doom for small town cable. Now,
people who wouldnt have thought of having one of those giant car-sized satellite
dishes of the 1980s killing the grass in most
of their yard could have satellite programming at cable competitive prices without the
REVIEW COMMENTARY

monstrosity. Cable subscribers in Garnett
began to wane, as did the value of the local
franchise and the cash flow that supported
its maintenance, not to mention the value
of the local franchises. Complaints about
quality of service began to grow.
Then came digital signal output from TV
stations, which means you can get generally
good reception with a digital TV receiver
not to mention channel offerings that
are quadruple the old antenna stations. If
youre not a specialty TV junkie, you can get
by with just an antenna, paying zilch, and
still get local TV news, weather and sports
along with the traditional TV network channels. The latest punch is Internet-available
programming and jockeying among the
mega corporations to decide if they can
afford to unbundle programming, continue to charge way too much for Internet
and wireless phone service in the U.S. and
in so-doing kill off the cable systems most
of them already own.
In the early 1990s the local cable TV system boasted 1,100 or so subscribers. Now,
according to info from last weeks meeting
with a company official, only about 300 local
subscribers remain.
Unfortunately for the citys franchise fee
paid by the cable company, that level of subscribership doesnt support re-investment
in the system unless some major cost-saving
methods are realized. The future of cable
programming in Garnett in any small
town for that matter is financially bleak.
City commissioners, administration and
the few remaining customers should accept
that fact and plan accordingly.

Last week a group of us was visiting
with an ex-city commissioner and
this article was brought up about the
Park Road sidewalk. He agreed the
sidewalk should have been on the
south side, but since the person who
requested it was on the north side.
Sounds like the idea was to get back
at the person that proposed it because
nobody was going to tell them at that
time how to run the city. I thought
that was pretty interesting. Thank
you.

The VA health cares Socialist Paradise
For the left, the Department of Veterans
Affairs is how health care is ideally supposed
to work. No insurance companies, no private
doctors, no competition — just the government and the patient.
The VA is an island of socialism in
American health care. It generally provides
adequate care — to a limited universe of people and for only certain conditions — but has
long been plagued by scandal. It is perhaps
the worst bureaucracy in the federal government. As with all such single-payer-type
systems, the cost of the notionally free health
care is in the rationing, in this case the wait
times that have had desperately ill vets hung
out to dry for months.
The usual Obamacare excuses dont apply
here. The existence of the VA isnt politically
controversial. No one is trying to repeal it,
or sabotage it. What were seeing is simply
unaccountable bureaucracy in action.
When the benchmark was created for VA
facilities to get vets appointments within 14
days, meeting the goal was easy: All it took
was logging appointments dishonestly to hide
the wait time. This is how poorly performing
government bureaucracies have met goals
from time immemorial; its why, on a much
more vast and monstrous scale, Soviet fiveyear plans were always such runaway successes on paper.
The VA system worked for everyone but
the patients — and the whistle-blowers. The
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
daughter-in-law of a Navy vet in Phoenix
who died after never getting follow-up for his
urgent case was told, in lines that perfectly
capture the spirit of socialized medicine: Its
a seven-month waiting list. And youre gonna
have to have patience.
But the bureaucracy acted with alacrity
when its reporting scheme was at risk. In St.
Louis, the former chief of psychiatry says
he was put under administrative investigation when he complained about wait lists. A
whistle-blower who worked in Fort Collins,
Colo., alleges that she and a colleague were
transferred when they refused to hide wait
times.
So far, the VA affair is running the usual
course of Obama administration scandals,
with the requisite denial and lack of account-
ability. VA Secretary Eric Shinseki has
referred to the incidents as isolated cases
(even though 26 facilities are now under
investigation). He now takes his leave.
The White House has reverted to its default
position of maintaining that it doesnt know
much about whats happening in the vast
government it always wants to make bigger.
Spokesman Jay Carney, now also taking his
leave, seemed to suggest that the president
first heard about the scandal on CNN.
Of course, the problem with wait times
and the trustworthiness of the VAs own
reporting wasnt news. The Government
Accountability Office has been warning of
it since 2000. It headlined a December 2012
report, VA HEALTH CARE: Reliability of
Reported Outpatient Medical Appointment
Wait Times and Scheduling Oversight Need
Improvement.
The VA obviously isnt going anywhere,
but the scandal should be the occasion for
making it more transparent and accountable,
and giving vets more choices. As of now, it
represents a case study in how a bureaucracy
tends to its own interests, even at the expense
of veterans relying on it for matters of life
and death.

Review.
Get ready for a summer of finger pointing
OK, we got the news, Kansas revenues are
down about $300 million from estimates in
the past two months, and thats not good for
the budget that has just been passed and for
the upcoming fiscal year which starts July 1.
And, we have an election-year summer
ahead of finger-pointing and casting blame
for the massive reduction in state revenues.
Democrats point at Gov. Sam Brownback
for his tax cut program. Republicans point
at President Barack Obama, who scared the
wealthy back in 2012 when he proposed allowing those tasty President George Bush-era
tax cuts to expirebut they didnt.
Oh, you can further dissect the revenue
drops: The then-moderate Republican Kansas
Senate in 2012 loaded up the governors tax
cut proposal with more cuts and less revenueenhancers than he had proposed, sending
him a bill with outrageous revenue implicationsbut he signed it anyway.
Or, you can take the tack that the entire
national economy was shaken, not stirred, by
the possibility of federal income tax changes
in 2013 (which didnt happen), and it took a
year for canny federal taxpayers to square
up their investment decisions. Oh, and then
theres always Obamacare and federal spending and the national deficit and whatever you
want.
But the key for us folks who spend too
much time in the Statehouse is that there is
going to be a lot less money floating around
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
the state treasury than anyone feels comfortable with.
Estimatesand its just estimates now
are that the Legislature and the governor are
going to see for the fiscal year that starts July
1 and for which appropriations have already
been approved at least $300 million less in the
bank.
Its enough of a reduction in receipts that
you can count on whoever is governor next
year and the Legislature to spend much of
the session cutting budgets that agencies
have already been handed.
It is starting to look like that Republicanestimated ending balance for the upcoming fiscal year$288 millionisnt going
to happen. And its starting to look like a
Democratic projection of ending balances is
going to be closer to rightat maybe $70 million.
And then, whoever is governor is likely to
have to make budget allocationsessentially
cuts in spending already promisedsinglehandedly. Former Gov. Mark Parkinson
had to do that several years ago during the
national recession just to keep the government running…and he came under heavy
criticism from nearly everyone.
So? The politics of this revenue drop are
going to be bitter this election cycle. A canny
candidate for reelection will hold off on those
cuts until after the election and a smart challenger will wail that the governor is delaying
those allotments for purely political reasons.
Both, of course, are right.
Makes the upcoming election campaign
more interesting. Nobodys talking about the
obvious fix: Raising taxes… And nobodys
talking about the other option: Cutting spending…

people Ive ever seen. That is real class

The Square Fair was not the proper
place to be promoting guns and accessories. Also, it was not the proper place
to be carrying a gun in a crowd. There
are gun shows for promoting and selling guns. The Square Fair is for arts &
crafts only.
We the seniors that built this community are now being deprived of whats
going on at our city commission meetings because we dont have computers.
In the years past its always been in the
newspaper, and its no longer in there,
at least it hasnt been the last month
or so. Were the ones that do the voting
and we want to know what is being discussed at these meetings. Why are we
paying for subscriptions to the newspaper when theres nothing in there were
concerned about? I think this new technology you have down there is trying to
leave us old people out. We have a right
to know whats going on at the commissioners meetings. Thank you.
If you want any good news in Garnett
whether its true or not just go to the
tallest commercial building on 5th
Street. Theyll tell you all the gossip
they know whether its true or not and
you might even get a bargain or two.
Its real saddening about our veterans,
thousands and thousands of them not
getting medical help, waiting in line
and dying and weve got a low-life scum
bag in Garnet who got booted out of
the National Guard for being militarily
unfit. I think he ought to be real proud
of himself because hes drawing VA
benefits and aint hardly worked a day
in his life. Thank you.

Crest sprinter medals at state
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WICHITA – Junior track star
Rene Rodriguez was the lone
Crest Lancer to qualify for the
Kansas High School State Track
& Field Championships in
Wichita, Kansas that took place
on May 30-31 on the campus of
Wichita State University.
Roriguez not only qualified
for state, he actually qualified
in three different events as he
competed in the 100-meter, 200meter and 400-meter dashes.
Rodriguez earned his lone
medal in the 100-meter dash. He
finished third in his heat with a
time of 11.75 seconds. Kurt Van
Der Merwe from Linn won the
heat in 11.46 seconds.
The top two finishers of each
heat automatically qualified for
finals, but
Rodrigue z
got
in
because his
time was one
of the next
four fastest
times of the
non-autoRodriguez
matic qualifiers.
He capitalized on his opportunity as he ran an 11.53 second
time in the finals, which was
good for fourth place. The state
champion was Jordan Hoffman
from Otis-Bison as he crossed
the finish line in 11.25 seconds
In the 200-meter dash,
Rodriguez also advanced to the
finals thanks to a fourth place
finish in his heat with a time
of 23.43 seconds. The heat was
won by Evan Zabokrtsky, from
Hanover, with a time of 22.85
seconds.
Rodriguez ran a nearly identical time in the finals of the 200
meters, but it wasnt quite good
enough to medal. He finished
in seventh place with a time
of 23.46 seconds. Hoffman from
Otis Bison, once again, brought
home the gold with a blazing
time of 22.28 seconds.
The
400-meter
dash
wasnt quite as successful for
Rodriguez. He finished his heat
with a time of 53.36 seconds,
which was good for 13th place
overall. Hoffman from OtisBison won his heat with a time
of 50.45 seconds and went on
to win the gold medal with a
slightly better time of 49.72 seconds.
ACHS track well represented
at state, but fail to medal
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WICHITA – Last Friday and
Saturday, May 30-31, the ACHS
tracksters that qualified for
state competed at Wichita State
University.
The Bulldog women sent
six different athletes to state
to compete in seven different
events. Unfortunately for the
girls, they finished without a
medal but they did gain some
valuable experience for future
seasons as the youngsters will
be hoping for a return trip to
state again next season.
Sophomore MaKayla Kueser
qualified for state in the 100meter, 200-meter, girls high
jump and as part of the 4×100
relay.
She failed to bring home a
medal, but will no doubt cherish the experience and use it
as motivation to get back with
better results next season.
Kueser finished the 100-meter
dash in 13.29 seconds, good for
sixth in her heat. Tristan Davis
from KC-Piper won her heat
with a time of 12.75 seconds.
The state champion was Devin
Cosper from Field Kindley High
School with a time of 12.34 seconds
Kueser finished eighth in her
heat in the 200-meter with a time
of 27.68 seconds. Kelly Wycoff
from Scott Community won the
heat with 25.36 seconds. State
champion was Cosper with a
time of 25.16 seconds.
The 4×100 meter relay team
finished in sixth place in their
heat. The team is comprised of
sophomores Reagan Jirak, Ellie
Lutz, Kueser and junior Jessica
McCullar. Their time was 51.49
seconds. Field Kindley brought
home the gold in 49.93 seconds.
Kueser jumped 410 in the
high jump, which was good for
12th place. Madi Rollins from
Chanute won the event with a
jump of 54.
Sophomore Gwen Sibley
finished in 13th place in the
pole vault with a vault of eight
feet. Jannell Clampitt of Desoto
vaulted 106 to win the gold.
McCullar competed at state
in both the long jump and triple
jump as well as running a leg in
the 4×100 relay. She placed 15th
in the long jump with a leap
of 143.75 and finished 11th in
the triple jump with a jump of
323.75.
Amy
Suenram
from
McPherson won the long jump
at 166 and Courtney Lies of
Andale jumped 389 in the triple jump to win the gold medal.

didnt get the finish he was hoping for as he finished just inside
the top 20 at 18th place. His
score of 78 was nine strokes

Go nuclear in sales efforts
Want to blow through the
conventional sales combat tactics that everybody, and I mean
everybody else is using? Want to
take your sales effort nuclear?
Write a note.
Yep. You can obliterate
the competition just by treating your best customers like
theyre deserving of something
more than an email or a tweet
or a Facebook post.
Sure, its old-fashioned. Its
archaic. It sounds like one of
those History Channel stories
where Sears meets Roebuck.
But it is the intercontinental
ballistic missile of selling, and
anybody can do it.
I forget the numbers of how
many electronic messages we
get a day emails, tweets, TV
& radio ads, blah blah but its
way more than Justin Bieber
has mugshots, and thats a
bunch.
You can make yourself
memorable by stepping out
of that fray and doing it old
school with a hand written, oldfashioned, 48 postage-stamped
note.
1) As Ive already noted in
this column many times before,
your best clients matter most.
Im not suggesting you send
a hand-written note everytime
somebody buys a jaw breaker from the machine in your
lobby. Deploy your Nuke Notes
on that 20 percent of your customers that make up 80 percent
of your business, as well as new
prospects to join those ranks.
2) Next, go to your local
printer and get some good-quality note cards with matching
envelopes. No cheap stuff you
run through your own computer printer this should be
every bit as good as a wedding
invitation. Keep it simple but
be sure you logo is there and
your contact info somewhere,
either on the card or envelope.
HOW TO SELL STUFF
Dane Hicks
Review Publisher
3) Block out time to do it.
You dont need enough time to
write a novel, just a few lines
of thanks or hey did you see
this or congratulations or
something, but you must have
time to do it. Make it just before
lunch, first cup of coffee, etc.
4) Be professional, but with
a personal touch. Nothing
sappy. Mention how much you
appreciate his/her business, to
contact you personally if there
are ever any issues, or clip an
article and send it or refer a
web site link. Be aware of his/
her interests and meet those
interests.
5) For heavens sake, check
your spelling and grammar in
advance, even if you have to
type the notes text in Word (or
something with spell/grammar
check). If youre not confident
in your writing ability, run it
by someone else to see how it
sounds. Remember this is more
formal than electronic, so no
text-speak or any of that nonsense.
Set yourself a goal to send
at least one note a week. It will
be the nuclear weapon of your
sales arsenal, and believe me, it
will help you sell stuff.

will run tests of pavement
strength on the following
routes in Anderson, Coffey and
Greenwood counties: U.S. 169,
U.S. 54 and K-58.
The testing crew uses a
falling weight deflectometer
(FWD), a device equipped with
a series of weights that checks
the strength of asphalt pavement. KDOT conducts FWD
tests every year on different
sections of the state highway
system.
A pilot car operation will be
used for traffic control at each
testing site. Motorists will experience delays of 15 minutes or
less. KDOT reminds all drivers to be alert and obey the
warning signs when approaching and driving through the

Emergency loans available from FSA
Farmers in Coffey and
Osage Counties, who suffered
crop or livestock losses due to
drought occurring May 6, 2014
and on-going may now apply
for Farm Service Agency
(FSA) emergency loans, FSA
Farm Loan Manager Stacy
Kull, said today.
Anderson,
Douglas,
Franklin and Shawnee
Counties also became eligible
under existing legislation
which provides that farmers in counties bordering on
those which have been designated for disaster assistance,
may also qualify for such
assistance. Applications for
assistance will be accepted by
FSA until January 14, 2015.
Loans covering physical
and/or production losses are
scheduled for repayment as
rapidly as feasible, consistent
with the applicants reasonable ability to pay, said Stacy
Kull.
FSAs Farm Loan Programs
staff is committed to new and
existing customers, FSA customer goals and our rural
communities. FSAs service
extends beyond the typical
loan, offering FSA customers
ongoing consultation, advice
and creative ways to make
your farm business thrive.
At the Farm Service Agency,
we want to be your lender
of first opportunity to overcome these adverse weather
conditions and rebuild your
operation to get back on
track. FSAs loan staff can
refer customers to other public and commercial financing
sources that can serve as a
blend with FSAs farm loan
programs.
FSA loans covering physical losses may be used to
replace installations, equipment, livestock, or buildings (including homes), lost
through this disaster.
FSA loans covering production losses may be used to
buy feed, seed, fertilizer, livestock, or to make payments on
real estate and chattel debts.
Funds can also be used for
other essential operating and
living expenses, Kull said.
To be eligible for an
emergency disaster loan, an
applicant must be operating
a family size farm or ranch,
must be unable to get credit
elsewhere, and must have
suffered a qualifying physical
and/or production loss from
the disaster.
Farmers who suffered at
least a 30 percent reduction
to at least one cropping enterprise, may have a qualifying
production loss. Emergency
disaster production loss loans
cover 100 percent of qualifying losses.
Farmers and ranchers
that think they may eligible should contact the FSA
County Office in Ottawa,
Kansas or call 785-242-3527

HISTORY
1914: Greeley considers $12K for new school Qualification for
June 1, 2004
Civic leaders in Garnett
will team up with a Topeka
car club for a commemoration
event this summer celebrating the Lake Garnett Grand
Prix races of the early 1960s.
City commissioners Tuesday
approved the use of the Lake
Garnett Park on July 24 of the
event, which will use the venue
of the old Grand Prix races to
celebrate the 50th anniversary
of the Kansas Region Sports
Car Club of America based in
Topeka. Organizers are looking for memorabilia from the
races to display in connection
with the event. A movie filmed
during the races will be available for viewing.
The company that plans
to build an ethanol plant
in Garnetts Golden Prairie
Industrial Park executed its
option to buy the property this
week, another step toward the
yet-to-be announced beginning of the plants construction.
The City of Garnett will
receive some $88,350 from the
federal government to perform a comprehensive study
of the municipal airport with
hopes of designing a development plan whose actual project work might also be paid for
by new federal entitlements.
June 2, 1994
The Anderson County
Commission approved action
taken by the county planning
board that will allow a new
100 foot by 160 foot expansion to be built onto the west
side of Baumans Carpet

and Furniture just north of
Garnett along U.S. 59. The addition did not meet side yard and
intensity-of-use requirements
in the county zoning codes, but
the planning board approved
variances that would allow the
building to be built.
Orville Cole, a former
Garnett attorney, continued
his assault on the Anderson
County Economic Development
Committee
during
the
Anderson County Commission
meeting Monday. For the second time in two weeks, Cole
asked that the county pull
its funding of one-half mills
annually to the economic
development group. Cole has
pressed the commission to give
up the half mill of county tax
money paid to ACED since losing a bitter fight to stop state
funding for the Prairie Spirit
Rail Trail. ACED supported
development of the trail. Cole
provided information that he
had read that indicated that
each job created by economic
development costs thousands
of dollars to develop.
May 31, 1984
How satisfied are Garnett
residents with the different
functions within their community? What improvements
do people foresee the community needs within the next few
years? These questions were
answered by 420 residential
surveys returned in a houseto-house PRIDE Committee
tabulation of need within the
Garnett community. The top
need, as listed by both the
91-item list of adequacy of
various functions and also the
opinions of citizens as to needs
in the future, was a movie theater. Other things they said
needed improvement were job
opportunities for youth and
job opportunities for others,
followed by a taxi service and
removal of dilapidated buildings.
A KDOT engineer presented photographic material to
commissioners to help explain
erosion problems at the 80 mile
marker on K-31 northwest of
Garnett. He asked the county
commissioners to determine
damages stemming from the
erosion from the David Leitch
property. Apparently KDOT
has been fighting this erosion
problem for over two years.
The erosion not only appears
to be washing out the Leitch
land but is apparently washing
out the K-31 highway surface,
as well.
June 3, 1914
It was stated in Mondays
Review, Greeley contemplates
the building of a new and modern school building, as the present building is inadequate to
house the growing school. The
proposition is to vote bonds in
the amount of $12,000, which
sum should cover the cost of
the grounds and the building,
the grounds to occupy five
acres. Greeley is certainly in
need of more school room.
Besides, the present building
is a back number in more
ways than one. The editor of
The Review hopes the proposition will be adopted by the
people of the districts. Greeley
is a wide-awake little city and
is one of the best towns in eastern Kansas. Good teachers are
employed in the schools, but
they need better equipment.
This reminds us of the Greeley
schools of the past. One of
the original school houses was
said to be a little log hut near
the present bridge, across the
street from John Lons present home. D.W. Smith, we
have been told, taught school
there. There were other places,
no doubt, where school was
held, but the writer remembers no others until he went to
school in this little old United
Brethren church, which, at the
time, was only partly furnished
with regular seats. Some of the
children sat on planks placed
on logs. That was in 1868.A
new frame schoolhouse was
built that fall and winter, and
the school was moved to it in
January 69. This served as
a school house a good many
years. Then the present brick
building was erected, about
the year 1880. This building
was the pride of the town a
good many years.

QUALITY Service You DESERVE
entrance into
The Kingdom?
In Matthew chapter 21 Jesus
tells a parable about two sons
who are ordered by their father
to work in the vineyard. The
first son refuses but later changes his mind and went anyway.
The other son agreed to go but
did not. Jesus is addressing the
religious leaders and he asks
them this question? Which
of the two did the will of his
father? They said, The first.
Jesus then said to them, Truly,
I say to you, the tax collectors
and the prostitutes go into the
kingdom before you. For John,
(John the Baptist) came to you
in the way of righteousness,
and you did not believe him,
but the tax collectors and prostitutes believed him. And even
when you saw it, (the kingdom)
you did not afterwards change
your minds and believe him.
Matthew 21:31-32
This statement by Jesus
naturally angered the religious
leaders because what he was
saying is that these tax collectors and prostitutes were entering the kingdom of God ahead
of the religious leaders of the
day because they recognized
their sinfulness and repented.
These religious leaders did not
recognize their need for Gods
grace. They were willing to
stand on their reputation and
their commitment to the Jewish
Law. In their eyes these notorious sinners only made them
feel better about themselves
and their own righteousness.
Their religion was based
on tradition, personal preference and convenience. The law
provided the traditional background they sought and they
added to it to include their per-
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
sonal preferences and any convenience they desired, tailoring
it to please themselves. While
this benefited them it limited
others ability to worship at all.
The tax collectors and prostitutes could never meet the criteria of the religious leaders
thus they were left out.
When Jesus arrived on the
scene and offered forgiveness
to them if they recognized
their sinfulness and repented
it offered a hope to anyone who
had turned their back on God.
This concept of forgiveness of
sins based on the righteousness
of Jesus instead of personal
righteousness made salvation obtainable. The kingdom
Christ offers is one where the
qualification for entrance is a
righteousness that can only be
obtained as a gift from Christ.
Those who refuse to recognize
their need for the righteousness of Christ will never find
their way into the kingdom.
At the end of the Sermon
on the Mount Jesus makes this
statement. Not everyone who
says to me, Lord, Lord, will
enter the kingdom of heaven,
but only he who does the will
of my Father who is in heaven.
That should give us pause for
thought.

Orphan Train featured in Two Anderson County Farm
librarys book discussion Bureau scholarships awarded
The Garnett Public Library
will hold a book discussion on
Wednesday, June 25th at 7 p.m.
This months book is Orphan
Train by Christina Kline.
Leading our discussion will be
Paulabeth Henderson.
Rich in detail and epic in
scope, Orphan Train is a powerful novel of upheaval and
resilience, of second chances,
of unexpected friendship, and
of the secrets we carry that
keep us from finding out who
we are. This book is set in both
the present day and the 1920s,
30s and 40s.
Kline delivers her most
ambitious and powerful novel
to date: a captivating story of
two very different women: a 91year-old woman with a hidden
past as an orphan-train rider
and the teenage girl whose own
troubled adolescence leads her
to seek answers to questions no
one has ever thought to ask.
The books are available for
checkout at the library. The
discussions are held the fourth
Wednesday of each month at 7
p.m. in the Archer Room at the
library. Notification is posted
in case of cancellation.

Lions Club-60th
The Colony Lions Club
will be celebrating their 60th
anniversary on June 14 at the
Colony City Hall community
room at 6 p.m. Area clubs have
been invited to the celebration.
The Colony Lions civic organization was chartered July 1,
1954 with 26 charter members.
The Garnett Lions had sponsored them. Dale Nichols was
the first president. They are
a progress booster for Colony.
Larger and most evident projects accredited to them are
building a community fire barn
to house the rural fire truck
they obtained which housed the
city fire truck also, the building
of a new shelter house, addition
of a chain link fence around the
ballpark, building a house for a
disabled resident and the construction of a committal building in the southeast part of the
Colony Cemetery.
Fund donations for numerous school events are made, the
Colony Day event and many
other contributions. Annually
they hold a pancake/soup feed,
provide treats for children in
the Christmas Season, and usually send one or two students to
the Kansas Lions State Band.
An enjoyable memory was the
eleven-year annual event when
they held a concession stand at
the Colony High Point Rodeo
Arena event. Attendance grew
from 2,000 to 7,000 paid admissions in that time frame.The
biggest change was in 1989,
when women became eligible
for membership. They did not
wish to until 2008. Women members now number four-Donna
Westerman, Dian Prasko, Dee
Dee McMullin and Sue Colgin.
Two members are third
generation members: Steven
Weatherman and Brian Ulrich.
Stevens grandfather, Lloyd
Weatherman was a charter
member as well as his son
Robert. Charter member Keith
Ulrich, grandfather of Brian
Ulrich and his father Bill, who
has served 27 years as the clubs
treasurer (24 of them consecutively).
Colony is proud to have this
civic club that works with youth
and other community citizens
for a better community for all.
Library
Library board met May 20
at the City Hall community
room. Lola Webber was reappointed to the board. All officers remain in their positions:
Charlotte Wallace, president;
Steve Wallace, vice-president;
Charlene Tinsley, treasurer
and Debbie Wools, secretary.
Purchasing of large print west-
ern books was discussed.
Lions
The regular meeting of the
Lions Club was held May 21 at
the United Methodist Church
with the United Methodist
Women fixing and serving the
meal. Fourteen members and
a guest of Dee Dee McMullin,
Cindy Patsman of Colony, who
is interested in becoming a
member were in attendance. A
thank you card was read by
President Richard Burkdoll
from the Crest 2nd graders for
the reading aides the Lions
obtained for them. Burkdoll
thanked everyone that helped
grill hot dogs for Crest students
the last day of school.Dee Dee
McMullin reported she had
invited Garnett, Humboldt and
Kincaid Lions clubs to their
60th anniversary celebration.
District Governor Jess Larson
and Zone Chairman Terry
Weldin will be guest speakers.
Brian Ulrich will provide the
evenings entertainment. Mary
Scovill will cater the event.
Colony Lions are collecting
used eyeglasses for the Lions
sight foundation. They will be
repaired and given to adults and
kids throughout the world that
are in need of them. Anyone
wishing to donate, please drop
them off at the bank in Colony
or at the Iola downtown pharmacy on Madison Street or
contact Bill Ulrich at 620-4965089 or Brian Ulrich 620-2287158. Donations are very much
appreciated. The next regular
meeting is June 4 at 7 p.m. at
the Colony United Methodist
Church.

May is a busy month for most.
Mothers Day, Graduations and
Memorial Day weekend and
L. Frank Baums birthday (he
wrote The Wizard of Oz). Even
with the busy schedules the
library did manage to plan a
few events this May.
First up was Mothers Day,the
story time kids made Mothers
Day baskets from paper plates
and fake flowers and on Friday,
May 9, the library had crafts for
the kids to make their mothers
and grandmothers.
Next up L. Frank Baums
birthday and 2014 is the 75th
anniversary of the movie, so
you know the library had to do
something.
The story time kids were read
two Wizard of Oz books and
then made Over the Rainbow
windsocks out of small milk
jugs and ribbon on May 14.
The kids were invited to
the library on May 15 to make
Tornadoes in a Jar and
Broom Stick dessert on May
15th.
The adults who were up it
for checked out the Cooking in
Oz cookbook and made a recipe from the book and brought it
to share with others on Friday,
May 16.
The Adults also took a Library
Field Trip to Wamego to visit
the Oz Museum and Totos
Tacos for lunch on Tuesday,
May 20. They also went to the
Dutch Wind Mill and Prairie
Town Museum in Wamego and
then off to Alma to the cheese
factory. The group had a wonderful time!
The Modern Woodmen of
America Tiny Tots club also
planted the library flower boxes
for us again this year. The little
kids do a great job and it makes
the front of the library look so
pretty. Many thanks to them.
The librarys 2014 Summer
Reading program will kick-off
with our annual Seed Spitting
contest on Wednesday, June 4th
@ 3:00. Flyers for each group
will be on the desk for the rest
of the summer events. There
will be 5th grade and under, 6th
– 12th grade and Adults. Come
and join the fun!
