What To Do When You Suspect
Someone May Be at Risk for Suicide
The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention recommends the following actions
when an individual suspects a friend or relative may be at risk for suicide:
Take it Seriously
- 50% to 75% of all people who attempt suicide tell someone about their intention.
- If someone you know shows warning signs (listed on Page 10A), the time to act is now.
Ask Questions
- Begin by telling the suicidal person you are concerned about them.
- Tell them specically what they have said or done that makes you feel concerned about
suicide.
- Don't be afraid to ask whether the person is considering suicide, and whether they have a
particular plan or method in mind. These questions will not push them toward suicide if they
were not considering it.
- Ask if they are seeing a clinician or are taking medication so the treating person can be
contacted.
- Do not try to argue someone out of suicide. Instead, let them know that you care, that
they are not alone and that they can get help. Avoid pleading and preaching to them with
statements such as, You have so much to live for, or Your suicide will hurt your family.
Encourage Professional Help
- Actively encourage the person to see a physician or mental health professional
immediately.
- People considering suicide often believe they cannot be helped. If you can, assist them to
identify a professional and schedule an appointment. If they will let you, go to the appointment
with them.
Take Action
- If the person is threatening, talking about, or making specic plans for suicide, this is a
crisis requiring immediate attention. Do not leave the person alone.
- Remove any rearms, drugs or sharp objects that could be used for suicide.
- Take the person to a walk-in clinic at a psychiatric hospital or hospital emergency room.
- If these options are not available, call 911 or the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at
1-800-273-TALK (8255) for assistance.
Follow-Up on Treatment
- Still skeptical that they can be helped, the suicidal person may need your support to
continue with treatment after the rst session.
- If medication is prescribed, support the person to take it exactly as prescribed. Be aware
of possible side effects, and notify the person who prescribed the medicine if the suicidal
person seems to be getting worse, or resists taking the medicine. The doctor can often adjust
the medications or dosage to work better for them.
- Help the person understand that it may take time and persistence to nd the right
medication and the right therapist. Offer your encouragement and support throughout the
process, until the suicidal crisis has passed.
Protective Factors for Suicide
According to the American Foundation for Suicide
Prevention, protective factors for suicide are characteristics
or conditions that may help to decrease a persons suicide
risk. While these factors do not eliminate the possibility of
suicide, especially in someone with risk factors, they may
help to reduce that risk. Protective factors for suicide have
not been studied as thoroughly as risk factors, so less is
known about them.
Protective factors for suicide include:
Receiving effective mental health care.
Positive connections to family, peers, community and
social institutions such as marriage and religion that foster
resilience.
The skills and ability to solve problems.
Protective factors may reduce suicide risk by helping
people cope with negative life events, even when those
events continue over a period of time. The ability to cope
or solve problems reduces the chance that a person will
become overwhelmed, depressed or anxious. Protective
factors do not entirely remove risk, however, especially
when there is a personal or family history of depression or
other mental disorders.
Supervisors begin
to align professional
assistance for jail and
public safety center
bond referendum
Out of the darkness: Welsh sisters share their family's
experience in observance of Suicide Prevention Month
by Bob Beach
During its regular meeting
Tuesday, September 2, the
Allamakee County Board of
Supervisors reviewed and
discussed proposals from
three nancing companies
who have offered to assist the
County with the upcoming
bond referendum to fund the
proposed construction of a
new jail and public safety
center. After some discussion,
the Board voted unanimously
to hire Northland Securities
as the nancial advisor and
underwriter for the bond sale.
However, the Board
learned later in the week that
by Lissa Blake
Suicide is a permanent
solution to temporary
problems.
That quote from Robin
Williams has gone viral
since the beloved actor and
comedian took his own life
the same company could
not serve as both nancial
advisor and underwriter
simultaneously, so that vote
is expected to be revisited
during the Board's September
9 meeting. The Board
also signed a resolution
appointing Bob Josten of
Dorsey and Whitney as the
County's bond attorney for
the project and later met with
Allamakee County Sheriff
Clark Mellick, John Hansen
of Midwest Construction
Consultants and architect
Rick Weidner to review and
visit possible construction
sites.
The Board also met
with Allamakee County
Veterans Affairs Director
Heather Homewood,
who recommended the
appointment of Don Peters
of Lansing to the Veterans
Affairs Commission.
Homewood said there
were many well-qualied
applicants for the position and
that Peters had been selected
to provide geographically
equal representation on the
Commission and because of
his commitment to veterans
and veterans' issues. The
Board unanimously agreed
to appoint Peters to serve
out the remainder of the term
previously being served by
the late Bob Peters, which
ends July 1, 2015.
early last month.
Dacia Sommer of Waukon
said the news of Williams
death hit her "like a ton of
bricks," as it brought back
memories of her own
brothers untimely death just
ve years ago.
I cried for about four
days, said Sommer. Robin
Williams was the Hollywood
version of Andys situation.
He liked to entertain and he
hid it well.
In honor of September
being observed as Suicide
Prevention Month, Sommer
and her twin sister, Danielle
Howe of Waukon, recently
reached out to share their
story with the public.
Suicide is way more
common than people realize.
Talking about it used to be
so taboo. We need to be open
about it, because the more
you bury it, the worse its
going to get, said Howe.
LIFE OF THE PARTY
Andy Welsh, a 1994
graduate of Kee High School
in Lansing, passed away
November 24, 2009 at the age
of just 33 years old.
According to his sisters,
like Williams, he was the life
of the party. He would do
anything and everything for a
laugh, said Sommer.
But be that as it may,
the sisters said there were
signs before his death that
something was a little "off".
It was three weeks before
he died and he didnt show
up for work one day at our
dads store in Lansing, said
Sommer.
Sommer, who teaches at
St. Patrick School in Waukon,
received a call from her
sister, Dana Welsh, asking if
she had seen Andy. I could
hear the panic in her voice,
remembered Sommer.
The sisters grew even more
concerned when they learned
of his most recent post on
Facebook, which said, See
you on the ipside. Peace.
Im out.
The family immediately
contacted local law
enforcement, who put out
a statewide APB (all points
bulletin) for Andy, which
instructed law enforcement to
pull him over for a wellness
check.
After spending the day
searching and worrying, the
family located Andy, who had
been driving around all day.
We were totally
blindsided. Before this, there
was nothing. No indication.
We never saw this coming at
all, said Howe.
Later that day, Sommer and
Howe had the opportunity to
visit with their brother and
ask him what was wrong.
On the ride to his house
in Lansing, he admitted he
hadnt been feeling himself,
but he didnt know why. He
said he had even stopped at an
area hospital in a neighboring
county and told them how
Great Southeast Iowa Tractor Ride participants describe recent northeast Iowa ride as "the best" ...
Waukon and northeast Iowa played host Wednesday, September 3 through Friday, September 5 to members of the 13th annual Great Southeast
Iowa Tractor Ride as 80 to 90 tractor enthusiasts toured the highways and scenic byways of northeast Iowa on approximately 70 tractors during
that three-day tour. Riders traveled pre-determined routes of about 70 miles on each of the three days of the ride, mainly along the Driftless Area
Scenic Byway route, with the Allamakee County Fairgrounds serving as an overnight parking and point of origin location. Ride organizer Steve
Scholtus said with the event in its 13th year, practically every road in southeast Iowa had been traveled upon, so the group decided to come
have a look at northeast Iowa, stating the riders have enjoyed the change in scenery. "All the comments have been very, very positive," he said.
"The economic development team has been just fabulous to work with. Waukon is very fortunate to have a crew like that." Scholtus said that the
Rivers and Bluffs Tractor Club had also been very helpful. "I haven't heard any negative comments at all," he said. "The people here have been so
accommodating and I've heard people say that this has been the best ride we've ever put on." Standard photo by Bob Beach.
Sharing their family's story in an effort to help others ...
Twin sisters Dacia Sommer and Danielle Howe of Waukon hold the plaque
commemorating the Andy Welsh Memorial Annual Texas Holdem Tournament, which
is held Thanksgiving weekend each year in honor of their brother, Andy Welsh of
Lansing. In honor of the month of September being observed as National Suicide
Prevention Month, the sisters are sharing their family's personal experience in an effort
to help others who may be impacted in some way by suicide. Photo by Lissa Blake.

he was feeling and they
prescribed an antidepressant
and scheduled a follow-up
for four weeks later, said
Sommer.
Sommer said she and
Howe told Andy at the time
that those pills usually take at
least a month to take effect.
And three weeks later he
was gone, said Sommer.
NO IDEA
Hindsight is 20/20, and
Sommer now wishes she
would have been more
proactive in getting Andy the
help he obviously needed.
We just had no idea how
serious it was, and just a few
days before he died, I asked
him how he was doing. He
looked me dead in the eye
and smiled and said he was
ne. He was so convincing.
And just a few days later he
was gone, she said.
Missing boy
found safely
after involved
search process
The report of a missing nine-
year-old boy Monday, Sep-
tember 8 prompted Allamakee
County ofcials to call on the
assistance of a vast array of local
and statewide help before he was
found safely about a mile away
from his home at a neighboring
farm. An initial report released
by the Allamakee County Sher-
iff's Ofce relayed that the boy
was seen shortly before 7:30
a.m. walking along Moose Road
near his home approximately
four miles north of Waukon. He
would end up trekking through
wooded area and farm elds to
end up being found at a neigh-
bor's farm along State Highway
9 more than four hours later.
When the child did not get on
the school bus and could not be
found around his home, an ini-
tial search by family members
resulted in his father making
contact with Allamakee County
Sheriff Clark Mellick, who said
"covering all options" from the
vast wooded area near the child's
rural home to possible abduction
since his home was located near
a major state highway (Hwy. 9)
eventually involved a signi-
cantly more involved search.
From the initial involvement of
the Allamakee County Sheriff
and Emergency Management
Departments, calls also went
out to all area re departments
for manpower and all-terrain
equipment. The Iowa State Pa-
trol search airplane and agents
from the Iowa Department of
Criminal Investigation were also
involved in the search process,
according to reports.

Thomas Haberichter
Thomas C. Haberichter,
56, of Waukon died Sunday,
August 31, 2014 at Universi-
ty of Iowa Hospitals and Clin-
ics in Iowa City as a result of
injuries from a motorcycle
accident near Dubuque earli-
er that day. Funeral services
were held Saturday, Septem-
ber 6 at St. Patrick Catholic
Church in Waukon, with Fr.
Jim Dubert ofciating. Burial
was at Mt. Olivet Cemetery,
Waukon.
Thomas Charles Haberich-
ter was born June 9, 1958 in
Waukon, the son of Vernis
Charles and Helen Jane
(Egan) Haberichter. He was
baptized and conrmed at
St. Patrick Catholic Church
in Waukon. Tom attended
school in Waterville through
the second grade, at St.
Patrick School in Waukon
through eighth grade, and
graduated from Waukon High
School in 1976. He went on
to attend Kirkwood Commu-
nity College in Cedar Rapids,
where he graduated in Com-
puter Operations.
September 7, 1985, he
married Nancy Ann Decker
at St. Patrick Catholic Church
in Waukon. Toms working
career began right after grad-
uation with Meadowland
Dairy in Waukon, which lat-
er became Wisconsin Dairies
and then Foremost Farms. He
worked his way to warehouse
supervisor and enjoyed his
duties as well as co-workers,
especially visiting with the
drivers every day. After work-
ing 33 years the dairy closed
and he took a job at 3M in
Prairie du Chien, WI for a
year. Currently, Tom was
working at Aveka in Waukon.
Tom was an active member
of St. Patrick Church, where
he was a former parish coun-
cil member and served as an
usher. He was an avid out-
doorsman and enjoyed shing
and hunting, especially for
pheasant. An avid motorcycle
enthusiast, he loved touring
the area taking less traveled
roads and truly enjoyed his
outings with the Wednesday
Night Riders. He and Nancy
have taken a major trip on
their motorcycles every year
visiting much of the United
States and into Canada.
Tom enjoyed people and
loved to visit with new ac-
quaintances and many friends
who appreciated his good
sense of humor. He was a
very devoted family man,
spending many weekends
camping with his family. As
a husband and father, he was
always willing and available
to help in any way he could,
and the relatively new role of
grandfather was one he truly
loved.
Survivors include his wife,
Nancy, of Waukon; three
children, Stephanie (Kevin)
Eslick of Cedar Rapids, Jarod
(Molly) Haberichter of New
Hampton and Jonathan (friend
Emily Spartz) Haberichter of
Johnston; two grandchildren,

"Deciency-Free" for second year ...
Good Samaritan Society - Waukon recently completed its annual state survey, required of all skilled nursing facil-
ities. Surveyors arrived unannounced and spent three days going through the center with a high degree of diligence
- observing nursing staff, interviewing residents, examining records, inspecting the dietary department, and scruti-
nizing everything and everyone at the center. After a thorough review, surveyors were pleased to report they had not
found any deciencies in the entire center. A Deciency-Free Survey report is difcult to attain, as less than nine
percent of all nursing facilities achieve that rating each year. This is the second "D-Free" survey Good Samaritan
Society - Waukon has achieved in the last three years.
This survey result is a testament to the quality staff providing cares for our residents, says Administrator Jim
Sewick. We have an amazing team that puts the wants and needs of our residents above all else. Some of the
employees of Good Samaritan Society - Waukon are pictured above. Left to right - Front row: Marsha Moestchen,

The Waukon City Coun-
cil began its regular meeting
Tuesday, September 2 (post-
poned due to the Labor Day
holiday falling on its usual
meeting day, Monday, Sep-
tember 1) by holding a public
hearing regarding the sale of
a residential lot in the West
Side Development area along
the west edge of Waukon to
Waukon Economic Develop-
ment (WEDC). Hearing no
comments from the public,
the Mayor declared the public
hearing closed and the Coun-
cil approved a resolution ap-
proving the sale.
The Council also approved
a development agreement
under which WEDC would
provide the building lot to
the Allamakee Community
School District for use in the
district's home construction
program. Lyle TeKippe of
TeKippe Engineering report-
ed that he would have plans
and specications for the in-
stallation of water and sewer
services in the development
area, as well as curb and gut-
ter, prepared for the Council's
next regular meeting.
Mayor Loren Beneke told
the Council that real estate
developer Tony Beneke had
expressed an interest in pur-
Waukon City Council discusses
West Side Development area
chasing a lot (or lots) in the
other half of the West Side
Development area for the
construction of condomini-
ums. He said that the pro-
cess for selling the lot or
lots would be similar to the
WEDC sale in terms of public
hearings and a development
agreement. Councilman Don
Steffens said that he doesn't
believe the City should be
involved in the development
of the lots and that the City
should simply sell the lots to
developers without requiring
a development agreement.
Councilmen Trent Mitch-
ell and Steve Wiedner agreed
with Steffens, saying that
they would have no concerns
about the development as
long as the buildings are up
to code and the City recoups
its money for the purchase
of the land and the closure
of the trailer park. Mayor
Beneke pointed out that there
is currently no single point
of contact regarding the de-
velopment area and asked if
any member of the Council
would be willing to serve in
that capacity. There being no
volunteers, the Council voted
unanimously to request that
WEDC take the lead on the
project.
The Council then turned
its attention to a proposed

The
agreement between the City
and Sweeney Properties (Jim
Sweeney) to provide electric-
ity for an electronic bulletin
board in the downtown pla-
za. Under the agreement, the
City would reimburse Swee-
ney $56.86 per month, paid
quarterly, to connect elec-
tricity to the sign through the
former Tierney's building at
the corner of Main Street and
Rossville Road. Councilman
Trent Mitchell suggested that
the City should get its elec-
tricity from a nearby street
light rather than from private
property, noting that the cost
to hook up the electricity that
way had been estimated at
$1,000.
Councilman Steve Wied-
ner, in the interest of getting
the sign operational as soon
as possible, made a motion to
accept the agreement, which
was seconded by Steffens, but
Mitchell and Sanderson vot-
ed against it. Due to the ab-
sence of Councilman Darrold
Brink, the vote was a tie and
the motion initially failed.
After further discussion,
Mitchell agreed to accept the
agreement on a temporary ba-
sis and the motion carried.
With regard to resident
complaints regarding the pav-
ing of Third Street Northeast,
Mayor Beneke told the Coun-
cil that TeKippe, the project
engineer, had been informed
that an engineer had been
hired by the City to review
the project. TeKippe told the
Council that he and Council-
man Wiedner had met with
residents who had agreed to
have "humps" added to the
ends of several driveways to
keep rainwater in the street.
TeKippe said that the resi-
dents preferred this solution
to his prior proposal to ll the
boulevard areas with rock for
better drainage. TeKippe said
he had also spoken with the
contractor about the weeds in
the boulevards.
The Council also reviewed
a request from former Wa-
ter and Sewer Department
employee Rick Herman to
be reassigned to the City of
Waukon Street Department.

I look forward to continu-
ing to work with the El Paso

creasing public health needs
of El Paso County residents.
Martindale said.
Martindale received his

Martindale and his wife,
Mary, have been married for
34 years and reside in Palm-
er Lake, CO. Their daughter,

letics, teachers and coaches,
St. Pats, and graduating with
the class of 1973, to name a
few. He is the son of the late
Jack and Dorothy Martindale.
Waukon is situated in a
beautiful part of Iowa, and
was and is a great place to
grow up. he said.

public hearing for the inspec-
tion of bids for the Blackhawk
Alley Project. There were no
comments from the public
and the hearing was closed.
The Council then approved
Resolution #850 which ap-
proved the plans, specica-
tions and cost estimate for the
Blackhawk Alley and Valley
Street Water Main Improve-
ment Project. The Council
also approved Resolution
#851 awarding the contract
for the two projects to the low
bidder, Brennan Construction
of Lansing, in the amount of
$89,944.25.
Resolutions #852, #854
and #855, all related to the
North Front Street Water and
Sewer Extension Project,
were reviewed and approved.
A special meeting for bid
opening will be held Mon-
day, September 22 at 3 p.m.
instead of September 15 to
allow for proper posting of
notices.
The Council also approved
a payment of $3,000 to Upper
Explorerland Regional Plan-
ning Commission (UERPC)
to write a Community Devel-
opment Block Grant (CDBG)
application. If awarded, the
grant will be used to fund
the Clear Creek Bridge and
Valley Street Water Main
Improvement Project. Mayor
Mike Brennan said the proj-
ect would benet the en-
tire Southtown area. Kevin
Draves, WHKS Engineering,
said the City could request
up to $300,000 and suggested
adding any other unnished
water/sewer projects in the
application. Draves also ad-
vised that the UERPC appli-
cation would require an engi-
neering technical justication
document that WHKS can
provide.
David and Donna Sven-
son submitted a plat of sur-
vey for a lot on North Front
Street in Lansing asking the
Councils approval to revise
boundary lines to correct a
long-standing encroachment
on their property by a portion
of Rose Johnsons parcel. The
Svensons propose to deed the
portion of land in question
to Johnson in order to ac-
complish the correction. The
Council had no objections
to the request, but tabled the
item until the next meeting in
order to correct language in
the Resolution.
Jerry Aperans, Street Su-
perintendent, presented infor-
mation related to the condi-
tion of the City Hall. Aperans
said there are signicant leaks
and possibly black mold in the
basement of the building. One
solution would be to repair
the existing building by re-
placing the roof, repairing the
basement wall and inspecting/
removing the mold. The other
options include demolishing
the building and constructing
a new one, utilizing space in
the library basement or some
other building in town, either
permanently or temporar-
ily. Council members Becky
Conway and Dave Darling
will investigate the options
further and report their nd-
ings to the Council.
The Council reviewed
and approved the Adminis-
trative Plan for the Owner-
Occupied Rehab Program
which will provide funds for
low- to middle-income resi-
dents dwelling repairs and
updates via a CDBG Grant.
Applications will be accepted
from October 1-31, 2014. Six
houses will be rehabilitated in
Lansing. Notices explaining
the program and application
procedures will be mailed to
residents.
Police Chief Ed Stahl and
Mayor Brennan agreed that
the patrol cars and related
equipment need to be replaced
sometime in the future, stat-
ing a replacement plan should
be developed soon.
Mark and Deb Ditzenbach
addressed the Council regard-
ing a parcel on Wall Street
on which they hope to build.
They are asking for the streets
near the parcel to be vacated.
Mayor Brennan said residents
have had water issues and he
isnt sure how deep into the
current hillside they could go
without creating problems.
Since the item was not on the
agenda, no action was taken.
Council members agreed to
look into the matter further.
Brennan also said boring
samples have been taken and
substantial subsurface water
ow was found; he suggested
the Ditzenbachs to look into
that before moving forward.

USDA Announces New
Support for Beginning
Farmers and Ranchers
USDA has announced
the implementation of new
Farm Bill measures and
other policy changes to im-
prove the nancial security
of new and beginning farm-
ers and ranchers. USDA also
unveiled www.USDA.gov/
newfarmers, a new website
that will provide a central-
ized, one-stop resource where
beginning farmers and ranch-
ers can explore the variety of
USDA initiatives designed to
help them succeed.
USDAs www.usda.gov/
newfarmers has in depth in-
formation for new farmers
and ranchers, including: how
to increase access to land and
capital; build new market
opportunities; participate in
conservation opportunities;
select and use the right risk
management tools; and access
USDA education, and techni-
cal support programs. These
issues have been identied as
top priorities by new farmers.
The website will also feature
instructive case studies about
beginning farmers who have
successfully utilized USDA
resources to start or expand
their business operations.
These policy announce-
ments in support of beginning
farmers and ranchers include:
Waiving service fees for
new and beginning farmers or
ranchers to enroll in the Non-
Insured Crop Disaster As-
sistance Program (NAP) for
the 2014 crop year. NAP pro-
vides risk management tools
to farmers who grow crops
for which there is no crop in-
surance product. Under this
waiver, announced via an of-
cial notice to Farm Service
Agency ofces, farmers and
ranchers whom already en-
rolled in NAP for the 2014
crop year and certied to
being a beginning farmer or
social disadvantaged farmer
are eligible for a service fee
refund.
Eliminating payment re-
ductions under the Conserva-
tion Reserve Program (CRP)
for new and beginning farm-
ers which will allow routine,
prescribed, and emergency
grazing outside the primary
nesting season on enrolled
land consistent with approved
conservation plans. Previ-
ously, farmers and ranchers
grazing on CRP land were
subject to a reduction in CRP
payments of up to 25 percent.
Waiving these reductions for
new and beginning farmers
will provide extra nancial
support during times of emer-
gency like drought and other
natural disasters.
Increasing payment rates
to beginning farmers and
ranchers under Emergency
Assistance for Livestock,
Honeybees and Farm-Raised
Fish Program (ELAP). Un-
der this provision, begin-
ning farmers can claim up
90 percent of losses for lost
livestock, such as bees, un-
der ELAP. This is a fty per-
cent increase over previously
available payment amounts to
new and beginning farmers.
In the near future, USDA
will also announce addition-
al crop insurance program
changes for beginning farm-
ers and ranchers including
discounted premiums, waiver
of administrative fees, and
other benets.
Compliance Spot Checks
Compliance spot checks
will be conducted on 2014
crops. Instead of locally se-
lecting farms, contracts,
deciency loans, etc. for re-
view, a nationwide selection
of producers is employed.
Spot check selections are to
be conducted based on a pro-
ducers participation in FSA
programs.
For more information
about the spot check selection
procedure, feel free to con-
tact your local Farm Service
Agency ofce for additional
clarication.
Unauthorized Disposition of
Grain
If loan grain has been dis-
posed of through feeding,
selling or any other form of
disposal without prior written
authorization from the county
ofce staff, it is considered
unauthorized disposition. The
nancial penalties for unau-
thorized dispositions are se-
vere and a producers name
will be placed on a loan viola-
tion list for a two-year period.
Always call before you haul
any grain under loan.
Foreign Buyers Notication
The Agricultural Foreign
Investment Disclosure Act
(AFIDA) requires all foreign
owners of U.S. agricultural
land to report their holdings
to the Secretary of Agricul-
ture. The Farm Service Agen-
cy administers this program
for USDA.
All individuals who are
not U.S. citizens, and have
purchased or sold agricul-
tural land in the county are
required to report the transac-
tion to FSA with 90 days of
the closing. Failure to submit
the AFIDA form (FSA-153)
could result in civil penalties
of up to 25 percent of the fair
market value of the property.
County government ofces,
Realtors, attorneys and others
involved in real estate trans-
actions are reminded to notify
foreign investors of these re-
porting requirements.

Preventing fraud
The Farm Service Agency
supports the Risk Manage-
ment Agency in the preven-
tion of fraud, waste and abuse
of the Federal Crop Insurance
Program. FSA has been, and
will continue to, assist RMA
and insurance providers by
monitoring crop conditions
throughout the growing sea-
son. FSA will continue to
refer all suspected cases of
fraud, waste and abuse direct-
ly to RMA.
Producers can report sus-
pected cases to the FSA of-
ce, RMA, or the Ofce of
the Inspector General.
For those who own land
that has expiring CRP, it is
suggested that they update
their NRCS Conservation
Plan. Those landowners are
asked to contact the NRCS
ofce to discuss their planned
crop rotation and tillage. The
NRCS can then check the
soils and slopes on the farm
to ensure the desired rotation
and tillage will meet compli-
ance requirements.
Landowners who plan to
rent out their land are encour-
aged to attach their revised
conservation plan to their
farm lease. The NRCS staff is
available to meet with land-
owners and their tenants to
Update Conservation Plans
for land coming out of CRP
discuss conservation options
for their land. Keep in mind
that the soil and nutrients
have stayed on the land while
it has been in CRP. Landown-
ers should be sure that they
continue to protect the soil by
implementing the best rota-
tion, tillage and conservation
practices.
Staff can meet with land-
owners on-site to walk/drive
their farm or a meeting can be
arranged in the ofce. Those
who have questions or who
would like to participate in
this project are asked to stop
by the ofce or contact proj-
ect coordinator Sara Berges
at 563-568-2246, ext. 3.
Field day to focus on nutrient management
Managing nutrients from
manure is becoming a high
priority among most live-
stock farmers for economic
and environmental reasons.
Dairy producers utilizing
sand bedding on their farms
have the opportunity to visit
two farms to examine their
nutrient management strate-
gies and methods to manage
sand.
Iowa State University Ex-
tension and Outreach and
University of Minnesota
Extension will jointly host
a eld day tour in SE MN
Thursday, September 25 at
three farms in southeastern
Minnesota.
Discussions will focus
on nutrient management in-
cluding various options and
methods to manage total farm
nutrient balance, manure
management, and nutrient
run-off. For those traveling
from Iowa, vans will be avail-
able and leaving the North-
east Iowa Dairy Foundation
in Calmar at 8 a.m. or par-
ticipants can drive separately
and meet at each site.

Area farms recognized as Century and
Heritage Farms during Iowa State Fair
Iowa Secretary of Agricul-
ture Bill Northey recognized
Century and Heritage Farm
families during a ceremony
at the Iowa State Fair again
this year. To qualify, a family
must have owned at least 40
acres for 100 years or more
in the case of Century Farms
and 150 years or more for a
Heritage Farm.
This year, 344 Century
Farms and 86 Heritage Farms
were recognized. Among
those honored farms were
the Century Farm owned by
the LeRoy McCabe family
of Waukon and the Heritage
Farm owned by the James
Hager family of Waukon.
It is a great pleasure and
distinct honor to help recog-
nize these farm families that
have owned the same farm
for 100 or 150 years. It is a
testament to the values of
land stewardship, hard work,
patience, dedication and per-
severance that are found in
Iowas farm families, North-
ey said.
The Iowa Department of
Agriculture and Land Stew-
ardship has partnered with
the Iowa Farm Bureau Feder-
ation since 1976 to recognize
families that have owned and
worked a farm for 100 years
or more. Including this years
recipients, 18,328 farms from
across the state have been rec-
ognized. The Heritage Farm
program was started in 2006,
on the 30th anniversary of the
Century Farm program and
has recognized 736 farms.
The 2014 Century and
Heritage Farms Program cer-
emony was held at the Iowa
State Fair Tuesday, August
12. Craig Hill, President of
the Iowa Farm Bureau Fed-
eration, or Joe Heinrich, Vice
President of the Iowa Farm
Bureau Federation, joined
Northey in recognizing the
award recipients.
The program acknowl-
edges the deep roots of Iowa
agriculture and the special
bond that exists between
Iowa families and the land
they farm, Northey said.
The Iowa State Fair is a cel-
ebration of Iowa and Iowa
Agriculture, so its a great
place to recognize the Cen-
tury Farm and Heritage Farm
recipients.

in order to provide consum-
ers with safe and wholesome
beef. Applications for Iowas
2014 Iowa Beef Quality As-
surance (BQA) Awards are
now being accepted.
BQA is a national pro-
gram for beef cattle produc-
tion that assures the highest
standards of animal care and
treatment. It was developed
with guidance from leading
animal health and well-being
experts and outlines essential
elements for cattle care. More
than 90 percent of all U.S.
beef is raised under the BQA
program.
The Iowa BQA program
recognizes an outstanding
beef producer, dairy producer
and/or beef marketer who best
demonstrate BQA practices,
including sound animal hus-
bandry practices. Nominees
should be BQA-certied and
work to continually improve
BQA on their operations
while operating sustainable
cattle businesses. The desire
to encourage fellow produc-
ers to implement BQA and
communicate what the indus-
try is doing to ensure qual-
ity cattle care is a plus. The
award is open to all segments
of the industry commercial
cow-calf, seedstock, back-
grounders, feedyards, dairy
operations, auction markets
operators and veterinarians.
The BQA programs mis-
sion is to maximize consumer
condence in beef while ex-
ceeding their eating expecta-
tions, said Doug Bear, Di-
rector of Industry Relations
for the Iowa Beef Industry
Council. The BQA Award
is a way to recognize the
outstanding men and women
who put great tasting beef on
our consumers plate every
day.

Youth Food & Fitness
Survey
One of my early tasks
as the Regional Youth &
Nutrition Coordinator for ISU
Extension and Outreach was
to analyze self-assessment
surveys from students Food
& Fitness experience this
past year. Sure, it may sound
a little dull, but the results
have left me excited for the
new year!
Out of our six-county
region there are 14 schools
active with Food & Fitness
Youth Teams. These teams
partake in projects throughout
the year to improve the well-
being of their schools and
communities by planning
and enacting a variety of
projects or events that relate
to healthy food choices and
active living.
The surveys were
completed by students who
were active in the Regional
Youth Leadership Team, as
Cafeteria Coaches or Farm to
School Cross-Age Teachers.
The surveys addressed
questions on if the students
saw progress being made and
what they learned.
Regional Youth Leadership
Team
The Regional Youth
Leadership Team (RYLT)
consists of students from each
of the participating schools.
They meet three to four times
throughout the school year
to take part in leadership
trainings and team building
activities to take these lessons
back to their youth teams to
better prepare them for the
projects they have ahead.
One student reected,
Becoming involved in FFI
is a great way to make your
school more active and
healthy while you become a
great contributor and leader.
Outcomes from this survey
showed these youth leaders
felt they had beneted from
this experience by learning
important life and job skills as
they became more condent
in public speaking, more
thoughtful working in teams
and more humble by helping
their community.
The topic that seemed to
resonate the most was their
change in eating behavior.
An average of 63% of the
students felt they learned a
lot more about healthy food
habits and saw themselves
make healthier changes in
their lifestyle choices with the
hope to model that behavior
for their family and friends.
Cross-Age Teaching
This youth project places
members of the youth teams
into elementary classrooms
where the upperclassmen
plan a lesson on a particular
food and its nutrition and
then present it to the younger
students. These teaching
teams are assigned to present
a new lesson monthly to
their designated classroom
throughout the school year.
These students really
enjoyed this opportunity
to teach and work with
younger students. Many of the
team members reported they
appreciated this experience
because it has taught them
teaching skills.
This experience made me
think about careers where
Id work with younger kids,
said one high schooler. I
really enjoyed teaching. It
conrmed my interest in
elementary education, said
another.
It appears that students
appreciated the opportunity
to have an impact on their

"Behind Happy Faces"
presentation will focus
on mental health issues
Although they are often faced with seemingly
insurmountable issues, sufferers of mental illness are rarely
given the same care offered to others. Without physical
symptoms to show for their illnesses, people with mental
illness are less likely to receive support and validation from
even their closest friends and family.
However, as the recent death of beloved actor Robin
Williams shows, even the most joyous smiles can hide
devastating conditions and many without obvious symptoms
are still in need of help.
Mental health advocate, author and consultant Ross
Szabo will present the lecture "Behind Happy Faces:
Taking Charge of Your Mental Health" at 7 p.m. Thursday,
September 18 in the Center for Faith and Life Main Hall
on the Luther College campus in Decorah. "Behind Happy
Faces" educates audiences on mental illness, seeks to reduce
the stigma surrounding mental illness and empowers those
who are suffering to seek help. The presentation is open to
the public with no charge for admission.
Serving for eight years as the director of outreach for
the National Mental Health Awareness Campaign, Szabo
has a long history with mental illness. When he was 11,
Szabo's eldest brother became a resident in a psychiatric
ward and Szabo soon found himself struggling with mental
illness as well. At age 16, he was diagnosed with bipolar
disorder and anger control problems and was hospitalized
after attempting to take his own life.
As with many cases, Szabo's road to mental health was
long and marked with setbacks but ultimately aided by
his discovery that sharing his story with others could aid
in his own recovery. After receiving a bachelor's degree in
psychology, he took it upon himself to see that his story
does all it could to help others living with mental illness.
Coping with a Suicide Loss
Find a Support Group
If you have lost a loved one to suicide, you may nd it helpful to connect with others
who have also experienced a suicide loss. It can be a relief to talk openly about suicide with
people who share a similar experience. Groups provide a safe place where those who have
been touched by suicide loss can share their thoughts and feelings, and offer one another
support. Support groups can be found by visiting afsp.org or calling 800-273-TALK(8255).
It is natural to feel unsure about going to your rst support group meeting. It may take a
few meetings before you feel comfortable.
Some people attend a support group almost immediately after their loss, while others wait
for years. Do what you feel is best for you.
Some survivors attend regularly for a year or two, then continue to go only occasionally.
If you attend a group and feel its not right for you, consider trying a different group. We
all cope differently and draw strength from different various kinds of support.
In addition to the Support Group Directory, there are Online Support Groups and Groups
for Children and Teens that can be found by visiting afsp.org or calling 800-273-TALK(8255).
How to Find a Therapist
It is normal to reach out for help as you cope with a suicide loss. The following steps can
help you to nd a qualied mental health professional for individual counseling:
Ask your doctor for a recommendation.
Ask survivors at support groups if they have had a good experience with any local
therapists.
Use the mental health services locator of the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration.
Contact the American Psychological Association and the National Association of Social
Workers for a referral.
Locate a grief counselor through a nearby hospice.
For low-cost counseling options, visit Mental Health America.
Search the Association for Death Education and Counselings directory of specialists.
Visit the American Psychiatric Association's website to learn more about the eld of
psychiatry.
Therapists have different styles and approaches. If the rst therapist you see is not right
for you after an appointment or two, consider meeting with another.
For Others Who Want To Help
Someone you know has lost someone to suicide and you want to help. But how? These
simple suggestions from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention are what people
grieving a suicide have said helped them most.
Reach out. Be there. Your very presence will be comforting and reassuring.
Follow the lead of the person who is grieving. Some survivors of suicide loss nd it helpful
to talk about the details of the death, share pictures of their loved one, cry, or express their
intense emotions. Others prefer not to.
Listen with your full attention.
Don't be afraid to ask about their loved one or to say their loved one's name. It hurts so
much more when no one talks about the person they lost.
Offer to help with specic tasks. Instead of saying, Im here if you need me or Tell me
what I can do to help, ask, Can I help by
...picking your kids up from school; ...walking the dog; ...helping with the grocery shopping;
...helping with funeral arrangements; ...picking someone up at the airport; ...making phone
calls; ...organizing your mail?
Write down a story about their loved one, especially if you have a story they might not
have heard. When you know they are ready, share it with them.
Become more educated about what causes suicide.
Risk Factors for Suicide
According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, risk factors for suicide are
characteristics or conditions that increase the chance that a person may try to take his or her
life. Suicide risk tends to be highest when someone has several risk factors at the same time.
Most Frequently Cited Risk Factors for Suicide
Mental disorders, in particular:
- Depression or bipolar (manic-depressive) disorder.
- Alcohol or substance abuse or dependence.
- Schizophrenia.
- Borderline or antisocial personality disorder.
- Conduct disorder (in youth).
- Psychotic disorders; psychotic symptoms in the context of any disorder.
- Anxiety disorders.
Impulsivity and aggression, especially in the context of the above mental disorders.
Previous suicide attempt.
Family history of attempted or completed suicide.
Serious medical condition and/or pain.
It is important to bear in mind that the large majority of people with mental disorders or
other suicide risk factors do not engage in suicidal behavior.
Environmental Factors That Increase Suicide Risk
Some people who have one or more of the major risk factors above can become suicidal
in the face of factors in their environment, such as:
A highly stressful life event such as losing someone close, nancial loss, or trouble with
the law.
Prolonged stress due to adversities such as unemployment, serious relationship conict,
harassment or bullying.
Exposure to another persons suicide, or to graphic or sensationalized accounts of suicide
(contagion).
Access to lethal methods of suicide during a time of increased risk.
Again, though, it is important to remember that these factors do not usually increase
suicide risk for people who are not already vulnerable because of a pre-existing mental
disorder or other major risk factors. Exposure to extreme or prolonged environmental stress,
however, can lead to depression, anxiety, and other disorders that, in turn, can increase risk
for suicide.
Warning Signs for Suicide
In contrast to longer term risk and protective factors, warning signs are indicators of more
acute suicide risk, according to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Thinking about heart disease helps to make this clear. Risk factors for heart disease include
smoking, obesity and high cholesterol. Having these factors does not mean that someone is
having a heart attack right now, but rather that there is an increased chance that they will
have heart attack at some time. Warning signs of a heart attack are chest pain, shortness of
breath and nausea. These signs mean that the person may be having a heart attack right now
and needs immediate help.
As with heart attacks, people who die by suicide usually show some indication of
immediate risk before their deaths. Recognizing the warning signs for suicide can help a
person intervene to save a life. A person who is thinking about suicide may say so directly:
Im going to kill myself. More commonly, they may say something more indirect: I just
want the pain to end, or I cant see any way out.
Most of the time, people who kill themselves show one or more of these warning signs
before they take action:
Talking about wanting to kill themselves, or saying they wish they were dead.
Looking for a way to kill themselves, such as hoarding medicine or buying a gun.
Talking about a specic suicide plan.
Feeling hopeless or having no reason to live.
Feeling trapped, desperate, or needing to escape from an intolerable situation.
Having the feeling of being a burden to others.
Feeling humiliated.
Increasing the use of alcohol or drugs.
Having intense anxiety and/or panic attacks.
Losing interest in things, or losing the ability to experience pleasure.
Insomnia.
Becoming socially isolated and withdrawn from friends, family and others.
Acting irritable or agitated.
Showing rage, or talking about seeking revenge for being victimized or rejected, whether
or not the situations the person describes seem real.
Individuals who show such behaviors should be evaluated for possible suicide risk by a
medical doctor or mental health professional.

A TERRIBLE DAY
Later that week, Sommer
received a phone call from
her sister, Dana, that she will
never forget.
She called and said I
needed to go to Lansing,
said Sommer. I remember
thinking, Its okay. Its going
to be okay. Im the type of
person who always thinks
everything is going to be
okay.
But Sommer quickly
learned things were not okay,
as Dana explained that Andy
was gone.
He hadnt shown up for
work, so our brother had
asked Dana to go check on
Andy, and she had found
him There was no note.
Nothing. He had just bought
groceries. He had just bought
a brand new pair of shoes. He
obviously wasnt planning
it. I think it was probably
one of those things where he
regretted it the second he did
it and its something you cant
take back, said Sommer.
VERY THANKFUL
Howe said her family is still
so grateful for the community
support they received
following Andys death. We
have a huge support system,
but the community was
amazing. There are no words
to describe how much that
carried us through, she said.
Once the initial shock
wore off, the sisters decided
they would pay it forward and
do something to try to help
others. They connected with
the American Foundation
for Suicide Prevention
(www.afsp.org) and have
participated in a number of
Out of the Darkness walks,
which raise money for suicide
education.
I think the most important
thing anyone can do is educate
themselves to recognize the
signs of any mental illness,
whether depression, bipolar
disorder or schizophrenia,
said Howe.
People say its a selsh
act. Its a disease. We dont
condemn people who have
cancer. Why would we
condemn someone who
has a mental illness? said
Sommer.
Howe added mental illness
is way more common than
people realize and societys
approach to dealing with it
needs to change. There is
a stigma that comes with a
mental illness diagnosis and
that alone prevents people
from wanting to nd the help
they need. Its scary and its
not easy. People need to feel
like its okay to ask for help,
said Howe.
Sommer added even
though she has always told
herself its not her fault, she
and her family live with the
regret they didnt pursue
Andy harder.
We will never know
why, but maybe we can help
someone else before they
have to go through this,

Kee volleyball team surrenders match pair to Turkey Valley, New Hampton
ve and four winners at the
net, respectively. Junior Ellie
Cooper dished out a team-
high eight assists, with soph-
omore Courtney Cooper add-
ing four helps, Ellie Cooper
also converting all six of her
serve attempts in the match.
Junior Lilly Winters post-
ed a team-high 12 digs, with
Kendra Cooper digging up
seven saves and joining Mey-
er in each denying three block
assists at the net. Senior Sadie
Hill led Kees serving attack
with three aces in converting
all nine of her serves, with
Winters also serving up a pair
of winners in making good on
seven of nine attempts. Junior
Mikayla Gavin, Meyer and
Kendra Cooper were each
perfect at the service line as
well in 10, nine and four tries,
respectively.
The Kee volleyball team
suffered a reversal of for-
tune this week from its initial
week of competition, falling
in a road triangular at Turkey
Valley Thursday, September
4 to even up the Hawks sea-
son record at 2-2 in their fair-
ly conservative early-season
schedule. The Lady Hawks
were swept in three sets each
by both Class 1A seventh-rat-
ed Turkey Valley and Class
3A New Hampton.
With an inexperienced
team, this schedule is like a
double-edged sword, Kee
volleyball coach Rich Ellis
said. I like the light schedule
because it allows us plenty of
practice time to come back
and work on what we did
wrong in the match, but on
the other hand, I would also
like to have a busier sched-
ule to allow them the time
to gel more in game speed
situations. The most import-
ant part of our season doesnt
start until October 21 with the
rst round of regional play, so
this team has plenty of time to
get to the level of play that we
need to be at.
The Hawks battled their
fellow Upper Iowa Con-
ference foe, Turkey Valley,
closely in set one, falling just
shy with a 21-25 loss. The
rst set was a back-and-forth
battle from the start, Coach
Ellis said. Our girls were
playing with great condence
and were getting some good
blocks at the net, which I
think put Turkey Valley into
a little shell-shock at rst.
Their experience and athleti-
cism won over in the long run
and they pulled out the victo-
ry, which took the wind out
of our sails. If we could come
away with the win that rst
set, I think the remaining sets
could have had some very dif-
ferent results.
Those remaining sets,
however, went decidedly fur-
ther in favor of the host Tro-
jans, as Kee fell by an 11-25
result in match two before
handing over the match with
a 14-25 defeat in the third and
nal set. The Hawks gave up
more than half their points
in the match, 38, on Turkey
Valley kills, 16 of those com-
ing from Trojan junior Kayla
Schaufenbuel.
Freshman Kendra Coo-
per led the Kee offense with
seven kills, with the senior
tandem of Molly Walleser
and Val Meyer contributing
The Hawks similar three-
set fate at the hands of New
Hampton came with equal
book-ends of 17-25 defeats
wrapped around a 13-25 loss.
The Hawks were troubled by
13 ace serves they allowed
the Chickasaws, 10 of those
coming from just two players
in the match. Kee was also
out-hit at the net by a 28-12
kill margin.
Senior Molly Walleser,
junior Mikayla Gavin and
freshmen Kendra Cooper and
Ashley Schwartzhoff each
accounted for two kills in
the match, with the setting
tandem of junior Ellie Coo-
per and sophomore Courtney
Cooper posting ve and three
assists, respectively. Junior
Lilly Winters posted team
highs of eight digs and four
service aces in converting 12
of her 15 serve attempts, with
Kendra Cooper adding seven
digs and Gavin and senior Sa-
die Hill each serving up two
aces in respective efforts of
10-for-11 and six-for-seven
at the line. Gavin also assist-
ed on four blocks while se-
nior Val Meyer chipped in on
three denials. Kendra Cooper
also served an ace in convert-
ing all seven of her serves.
Turkey Valley further
showed its top-10 ranking by
completing the sweep of both
of their guests after also de-
feating New Hampton to re-
main undefeated on the sea-
son. The host Trojans swept
the rst two sets, 25-21 and
26-24, before falling to the
Chickasaws in the third set,
21-25, but rebounded with
a vengeance to deal New
Hampton a 25-8 defeat.
Turkey has a solid team
this year, Coach Ellis said.
They are senior dominated
and most of them have been
playing varsity since their
sophomore year. Their ex-
perience showed last night.
Their middle hitters are very
seasoned hitters and can hit
the quick set very well. We
did our best at containing
them, but they are good.
The Hawks are next sched-
uled to play at South Winne-
shiek this Thursday, Septem-
ber 11 before competing in
the Crestwood Invitational
Saturday, September 13. Kee
will then play host to Central
Elkader Tuesday, September
16 before taking part in the
Waukon Tournament Satur-
day, September 20.

Waukon football team comes
up just short at Decorah, 23-22
The Kee football team im-
proved its season record to
2-0 with a non-district romp
at Rockford, 42-14, Friday,
September 5. The Hawks
once again dominated the
rst three quarters of the
ballgame, cruising to a 42-0
advantage through three com-
plete frames before allowing
Rockford to nally get on the
board in the nal period.
The Kee barrage came by
ground and by air from mul-
tiple weapons in the opening
frame. Sophomore Clay Ol-
son nished off the rst Kee
scoring drive on a ve-yard
run before adding the two-
point conversion as well to
give the Hawks an 8-0 start.
Kee tallied twice more in
the frame courtesy of senior
quarterback Dylon Peterson,
as he rst connected with
fellow senior Marquise Phil-
lips for an 11-yard touch-
down pass before adding the
two-point conversion run to
improve Kees lead to 16-0.
Peterson then busted in from
one-yard out to cap off the
Hawks rst-quarter scoring
surge, the two-point conver-
sion pass missing its mark to
make for a 22-0 Kee advan-
tage through just one period.
Kees offensive produc-
tion slowed only slightly, but
its defensive effort remained
vigilant in keeping Rockford
off the scoreboard. With the

For years there's been emphasis on keeping the helmet out of the game. The
game is under attack by critics citing head injuries as their primary battle cry.
The National High School Federation countered with major rule changes and
strong guidance in targeting and the defenseless player.
"Any initiation of contact with the helmet is illegal; therefore, it must be
penalized consistently and without warning. Examples of fouls that merit extra
attention are: launching, fouls against players obviously out of the play, helmet-
to-helmet, and fouls against defenseless players."
Launching is a new term in high school football. It includes a player taking a
running start and leaving their feet to contact an opponent with their helmet
or crouching and using an upward and forward thrust to contact above the
shoulders.
A player trotting 20 yards behind the play gets lit up. "Unnecessary punishing
an opponent is specically condemned." This year it is an automatic ejection.
Helmet-to-helmet contact fouls have been around for a few years. There will
be more ejections for this given the added emphasis and guidance.
Targeting of initial contact above the shoulders will carry an ejection with the
15-yard penalty in many cases.
Defenseless players include ball carriers that are stood up with forward
progress stopped, players in pursuit as they concentrate on a runner, or
players on the ground.
The intent of the rule is to eliminate unnecessary hits or severe blind-sided
blows. Granted, some of this was covered earlier this year. The point is, all of
our early-season e-mails from the High School Athletic Association emphasize
these safety changes. It is important that our student athletes, coaches, parents
and fans embrace the change for this awesome, most popular, high school sport
to thrive!

Kee football team routs Rockford, 42-14
The Waukon football team
renewed a bit of a gridiron
rivalry in the second game
of its 2014 season, travel-
ing to fellow Northeast Iowa
Conference school Decorah
Friday, September 5 to play
the host Vikings for the rst
time in several seasons. In a
battle of Indian air vs. Viking
ground, the game came down
to the nal minutes and some
special teams play before the
host school was able to secure
the 23-22 Indian defeat.
It was disappointing to
come up a point short this
past week, but we saw effort
that was missing last week,
Waukon football coach Chad
Beermann said. We also saw
improvements in our tech-
niques, but we are a work in
progress. Once we get every-
one on the same page, great
things will happen.
Much like they had the
week prior, the Indians es-
tablished themselves early in
their rst possession, as ju-
nior Peyton Hesse found se-
nior Jake Ronan for a 57-yard
touchdown pass just a couple
minutes into the game. The
two-point conversion missed,
but the Indians held a 6-0 lead
that would withstand both of
Decorahs rst two posses-
sions as the Indian defense
posted a pair of initial three-
and-out situations.
The Vikings were nally
able to capitalize on a bit of
Indian misfortune to nally
get themselves on the score-
board. An errant punt snap
sailed over the head of In-
dian senior punter Brennan
Frick, setting the Vikings up
for their rst touchdown fol-
lowed by a good extra point
kick for a 7-6 Indian decit.
Both teams settled in fairly
well after that, neither team
allowing the other into the
end zone for the remainder
of the rst half. The Vikings
were, however, able to grind
out another scoring drive in
the second quarter, Indian de-
fense bending but not break-
ing in limiting Decorah to a
30-yard eld goal to trail by a
10-6 halftime decit.
It was Decorahs turn for
a half-opening statement, as
the Vikings returned a three-
and-out favor before making
their way back to paydirt on
a 26-yard touchdown run. A
missed extra point kick left
the Viking lead at 16-6 with
slightly less than four min-
utes gone in the second half.
The Indians were nally
able to formulate a response
late in the third quarter after
an exchange of possessions.
That response was sparked by
a long punt return by senior
Travis Herman that set the In-
dians up at Decorahs 25-yard
line. Hesse and Ronan con-
nected again from 13 yards
out about a minute later, with
senior Marshall Lyons run-
ning in the two-point conver-
sion to pull the Indians within
a 16-14 decit as time wound
down in the third frame.
The two teams traded
blows once again early in the
fourth quarter, the Indian de-
fensive lineman tandem of se-
nior Jamie Byrnes and junior
Michael Schulte teaming up
to halt another Decorah threat
with a quarterback sack on
fourth down. But the Indi-
ans had to punt away their
next possession, leading to an
early Decorah burst on its en-
suing possession for another
touchdown run that ballooned
the Indian decit back to 23-
14 with just over ve minutes
left to play.
But the Indians were able
to respond once again, work-
ing that same Hesse-to-Ronan
connection, this time from 33
yards out, to cap off a drive
of just over two minutes. That
same tandem also hooked up
for the two-point conversion
to pull the Tribe within a 23-
22 decit with 2:20 left to
play in the game.
Having used two of their
three time-outs earlier in the
half, the Indians had little
choice but to try an onside
kick in an effort to get the
ball back. Decorah was able
to easily recover that onside
effort, their ground game do-
ing just enough to work the -
nal two minutes off the game
clock to secure the 23-22 In-
dian defeat.
Hesse completed 13 of 25
pass attempts for 195 yards
and those three touchdowns
to Ronan, who ended up with
114 yards on ve receptions.
Lyons also grabbed four pass-
es for 39 yards in addition to
carrying the ball 12 times for
59. Senior Adam Benzing
added 13 yards on three car-
ries and junior Austin Hogan
chipped in 12 yards on three
rushes.
Indian defense limited the
Vikings to just one pass com-
pletion for three yards, but
also gave up just shy of 250
yards on the ground. We had
several kids miss practice this
past week due to illness on
our defensive practice night,
Coach Beermann said. We
still saw signicant improve-
ment in those who were there,
and we will continue to work
on technique. Generally, I am
more concerned with execu-
tion of scheme than chang-
ing things up. So, we will
add some minor changes, but
mostly we will work on get-
ting better at doing what we
do.
Benzing led that defense
with six solo tackles in his
total of 10.5 total stops, with
Lyons adding four solo stops
in a similar overall tackle to-
tal. Senior Brennan Frick and
junior Haden Hammel each
had three defensive halts,

rnes and the junior tandem

Claire In-

Jeremy Hogan emerges from
three-way Halfback Harry tie
Week Two of The Stan-
dards Halfback Harry con-
test was full of gridlock, as
tie-breakers were needed to
determine winners in both the
overall contest and the Game
of the Week contest. Three
entries locked horns in each
of those contests this week.
Vying for top honors in
the overall contest were Jer-
emy Hogan and Paul Norton
of Waukon, along with Ellen
Valley of Rochester, MN,
all three entries missing just
four games this week. The
total points tie-breaker for
this weeks 17 winning teams
ended up at 537 points, with
Hogans guess of 545 points
being closest to that total to
give him this weeks honors.
Valleys choice of 575 points
and Nortons pick of 619
points left each of them a bit
further off that winning pace.
The Game of the Week
logjam saw nearly every en-
try this week picking Dec-
orah to defeat Waukon, but
only three came closest to
Decorahs winning total of
23 points. Jan Kreitzer of
Cresco, Dwight Bacon of
Decorah and Tim Valley of
Rochester, MN each picked
Decorah to score 21 points
in the Vikings 23-22 victory
over Waukon, with no other
entries guessing any closer to
that actual point total.
A total combined offensive
yards tie-breaker was need-
ed to determine an outright
Game of the Week winner, the
Indians and Vikings racking
up 510 total yards between
the two of them. Kreitzer was
closest to that actual yardage
total with her guess of 520
total yards, with Valleys 572
yards and Bacons 359 yards
each being further off that ac-
tual yardage total.
of the class may participate

point-producing ways courte-
sy of Olson once again on a
three-yard burst and Peterson
repeating his one-yard scor-
ing feat. Peterson also con-
nected with Phillips for the
two-point conversion after his
own touchdown, pushing the
Hawks to a 36-0 margin that
stood at the halftime break.
The Hawk defense con-
tinued to pitch its shut-out
throughout the games third
quarter as well, Kees re-
serves chipping into the con-
tinued rout of the host Rock-
ford squad. Freshman Brock
Flack capped of the Hawks
lone scoring drive of the third
period, popping in from one
yard out for the rst varsity
touchdown of his high school
football career to advance
Kees scoreboard margin to
42-0 after the two-point con-
version missed its mark.
Rockford nally got it-
self on the scoreboard in the
games nal period, doing so
just once on offense via an
eight-yard touchdown run.
The host Rockets defense,
however, tacked on one nal
tally, scooping up a Kee fum-
ble for a 20-yard touchdown
return followed by a two-
point conversion run that -
nalized the 42-14 Hawk win.
A fairly balanced Kee
attack saw the Hawks out-
gained by Rockford on the
ground, 121-172, but hold a
decisive upperhand through
the air, 127-17. Peterson
completed six of nine pass at-
tempts in the contest for those
127 yards and one touchdown
strike to Phillips, who hauled
in three passes for 51 yards.
Olson gathered in two other
Peterson offerings for a team-
high 58 yards and also paced
Kees ground game with
49 yards on 12 carries, with
Brock Flack adding 32 yards
on nine rushes.
Senior Andrew Weber
and junior Logan Flack led
Kees defense with 10 total
tackles each, Logan Flack
tallying eight solo stops and
Weber posting ve, including
a quarterback sack. Phillips
and fellow senior Hunter Otto
each added seven total tack-
les, including four and two
solo stops, respectively. Ju-
nior Nick Boland and seniors
Nick Howe and Ryan Kuhn
each had a fumble recovery.
We made great progress
from week one to week two,
which was great to see, Kee
football coach Chad Win-
ters said. We were balanced
offensively, once again. I
thought we played great team
defense as we ew to the ball
and were able to create some
turnovers that gave us a short
eld. We have a few things
to clean up before Fridays
showdown at Turkey Valley.
The Hawks will now open
Eight-Player District 4 play
at eight-player newcomer
Turkey Valley this Friday,
September 12. The Trojans
are also undefeated against
the same two teams Kee has
posted wins against so far this
season, downing Rockford,
54-12, in Week 1 and Ricev-
ille, 40-14, this past Friday.

said. We were able to pick
up where we left off at the

a good position in the team

fourth-place nish among
some very quality competi-
tion.

The Waukon football

Pre-Diabetes is a condi-

than normal but arent high
enough to be called diabe-
tes. It is a silent disease,
meaning someone can have
it without even knowing it.

diabetes.
As a person gets older,
especially if they are over-
weight, their chances of
having pre-diabetes increas-
es. Risk factors for diabetes
include being overweight,
being physically inactive, or
having a parent, brother or
sister with diabetes. African
Americans, Native Ameri-
cans, Asian Americans,
Pacic Islanders, Hispanic
Americans, those who have
had a baby weighing more
than nine pounds or have
had gestational diabetes,
have high blood pressure
(over 140/90) or have low
HDL cholesterol (35 mg/dl
or lower) or high triglycer-
ides (250 mg/dl or higher)
are also at risk for diabetes.
Physicians should check
blood glucose levels if their
patient is 45 or older and
overweight, or under age
45 and overweight and have
other risk factors for diabe-
tes.
Additional diabetes pre-
vention programs will be
held throughout the year. To

Many of us dream of going to faraway exotic places and helping the poor and downtrodden there. Perhaps we have even gone on a mission trip to a foreign country, or weve gone out
into our own communities to help others, or weve donated money or supplies to help refugees elsewhere. This is all well and good, but if we are neglecting the people under our own
roof we are missing a crucial point about charity. It is easy to love people at a distance; it can be difcult to really love and care for the people we live with. Family members, friends
and roommates can grate on us with their annoying habits and just from sheer familiarity. Isnt the real test of whether you have Gods love in your heart how you treat the difcult
people you live and work with, the folks under your own roof who dont always express their appreciation and who know how to push your buttons, and seem to enjoy doing so?
Charity begins at home. Its easy to be kind to those halfway around the world. Can we be truly kind to those we live with? Christopher Simon
But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. 1 Timothy 5:8

ELECTRIC POWER LINES
AND GRAIN BINS DONT MIX!
Please contact your local electric cooperative/utility if you plan to
build a grain bin in the vicinity of an electric distribution line or electric
transmission line.
Dairyland Power Cooperative owns and operates transmission
lines in Northeastern Iowa, which provide electrical energy to local
rural electric cooperatives and municipalities. Those transmission
lines are operated at voltages that greatly exceed local distribution
and service lines that may be located on your property. Dairyland will
provide assistance in planning the placement of the grain bin near
our transmission line to provide a safe environment for everyone
working and living around grain bins.
The State of Iowa requires specic clearances for electric lines
around grain bins, with different standards for those lled by porta-
ble and permanent augers, conveyors and elevators. The drawings
show specic clearances required for each scenario.
According to the Iowa Electric Safety Code found in Iowa Admin-

And then I wrote ...

PAGE 5B
The views expressed on this page are not necessarily views shared by this newspaper
Perhaps like you, re-
cently I read of an incident
in Okeechobee, Florida, in
which an 18-year-old man
was recorded on video beat-
ing, choking, kicking, and
holding a knife to the throat
of a 16-year-old boy with au-
tism. It made national news.
The National Institutes of
Health denes autism spec-
trum disorder as a range of
complex neurodevelopment
disorders, characterized by
social impairments, com-
munication difculties, and
restricted, repetitive, and ste-
reotyped patterns of behav-
ior. Due to lacking social
skills, children with autism
are at risk of being bullied or
abused.
As an experiment, I re-
cently googled autistic boy
2014 to see what I would
nd. Besides a number of in-
ternet missing autistic boy
articles, I found many dis-
turbing newspaper and TV
stories about boys with au-
tism being bullied or abused.
(I placed autistic into
Google because most media
outlets still refer to children
with autism as autistic; and
boy because 80 percent of
people with autism are male.)
Heres a sampling of what
I found for 2014.
In Maryland, two teenage
girls faced sentencing after
holding a butchers knife to
the throat of a 16-year-old
boy with autism and luring
him onto a half-frozen pond
until he broke through. They
refused to help. They re-
corded the incident on a cell-
phone.
Two California parents
were arrested for rooming
their 11-year-old son in a
large dog kennel.
A New York City para-
professional punched an
11-year-old boy with autism
in a school cafeteria. Police,
after watching video, charged
the paraprofessional with
felony assault, endangering
a minors welfare, menac-
ing, and harassment. The boy
had spilled water, and had not
understood the paraprofes-
sionals request to clean it up.
A Michigan teacher verbal-
ly mocked in class a 10-year-
old male student with autism
stuck in a chair. She recorded
the incident on her cellphone.
In Texas, three teens
robbed at gunpoint, beat, and
knocked down a 17-year-old
boy with autism.
Recorded on video in a
Walmart parking lot, a Flori-
da man was arrested on child
abuse charges for beating
with closed st a nonverbal,
13-year-old boy with autism.
Also in Florida, and on
video, a special education
school bus driver was arrested
on child abuse charges for re-
peatedly slapping across the
face a 10-year-old boy with
autism physically restrained
in a harness while on the bus.
Remember, people of all
ages with autism are especial-
ly vulnerable. If you witness
an incident, do the right thing.
Immediately report it.

Word for
Word
... that I sometimes refer to
myself as a fair weather ag
yer. Hows that for allitera-
tion? Anyway, this morning,
Labor Day, I took the ag
with me when I retrieved the
morning papers. I had lis-
tened to weather news and
they said there was a slight
chance of an early morn-
ing shower, then it would be
clear. By the time I got out
there, it was raining, and it is
still raining at mid-morning.
I have said before that I
have mixed feelings about
celebrating Labor Day. It
seems that those who cel-
ebrate most are govern-
ment workers who belong
to unions. And like Thomas
Jefferson, I think that sets up
an incestuous relationship, in
which those union members
effectively elect their bosses!
Private industrial unions are
ne and necessary.
Speaking of weather, I
seem to be more concerned
with bad weather threats
each year. Maybe it is age.
But I also blame the weather
guys. Many times as a young-
ster I would hear my elders
say there was a chance of a
thundershower. Not so scary.
Nowadays, it seems many
forecasters use the term thun-
der storm to describe the
same situation. Storm is scar-
ier than shower.
Courtesy of cousins and
their husbands, I was treated
to a pontoon boat ride on a
nice weather day recently. As
we passed the power plant at
Lansing, someone noted that
the coal pile didnt seem as
large as previous years with
winter and river freeze-up
coming. I said I had read
that railroads were having
trouble moving coal because
of all the oil being shipped
by rail from Dakota elds.
And while river barges bring
the coal to Lansing, rail cars
do bring it to river ports. And
then next morning I read that
grain dealers are having trou-
ble getting grain shipped by
rail for the same reason.
The worlds obsession
with and need for oil takes
precedence, which is all the
more reason that pipeline
from Dakota to Texas should
be built. I am convinced it
can be done safely, and so are
others, even in government
agencies which have made
studies.
Another thing I noticed on
the river ride was the pres-
ence of eagles at almost any
place along the river. Their
numbers prove humans can
co-exist with Gods other
creatures with only minimum
effort.
Now if only humans could
learn to co-exist with other
humans. One of the dailies
Sunday ran a full page on
how relations with six Middle
East nations have worsened
in the past three years, Iraq,
Lebanon, Syria, Libya, Gaza
and Egypt.
Thats just in that area of
the world. China, North Ko-
rea and Malaysia could be
added to the list.
The two main reasons for
the conict in the Middle
East are obviously that same
obsession and need for oil
mentioned above, and com-
peting religious views. With
China and North Korea, it is
more political ideologies and
wealth redistribution.
It is hard to ght some
of those things. Maybe the
United States would be wise
to follow the old adage of
working to change only those
things it has the power to
change. Like energy indepen-
dence.
By the way, Putin says if
there are any Russians in the
Ukraine, it is because they are
tourists.
I know he was KGB, but
did he also learn to lie from
the Internal Revenue Service
in this country?
To the Editor:
Recently The Standard
newspaper of Waukon pre-
sented lines of print concern-
ing my grandsons, Dolan
and Aidan Jones, replicating
their grandfathers remem-
brance of Killed In Action
shipmates of the USS Quincy
CA-39, names being orally
recalled. I am so very proud
of my Waukon grandsons
that volunteered to take over
the responsibility of this re-
membrance that I am not
physically capable of doing
any more.
Dolans name is actually
the surname of his grand-
mother, my rst wife. Aidans
name is a recall of the Catho-
lic church where I repaired
the chimes in the steeple.
There has been a 70th an-
niversary commemoration
recently held by the city of
Quincy, MA in memory of its
namesake ship, USS Quincy
CA-39. There were many
speakers recalling the ship
being constructed in the Fore
River Shipyard, so this partic-
ular ship was aptly named and
I was certainly proud to have
been assigned to this ship that
had been constructed locally.
I extend my appreciation to
The Standard for its accurate
news reporting, and especial-
ly the front page coverage of
my story. A special extension
of gratitude to Maury Gal-
lagher for a well thought out
and presented article. Please
know that I am overwhelmed
by your kindnesses. I extend
my hand to shake yours sym-
bolically in thanks!

As a Catholic priest, Im
often asked about Pope Fran-
cis. Most comments are very
positive, especially in refer-
ence to what he is saying
about the poor, his modeling
of living out the Gospel in his
personal life, and his com-
ments on world issues, such
as support for the Christians
being martyred in the Middle
East. But most people have
no idea why the Catholic
Church has a Pope and the
biblical foundations for that
almost 2000 year old ofce.
The key biblical passage
is Matthew 16:16-19 where
Simon Peter replies to Jesus
question of whom do you say
I am by stating: You are the
Christ, the Son of the living
God. And Jesus answered
him, Blessed are you, Si-
mon Bar-Jonah. For esh and
blood has not revealed this to
you, but my Father who is in
heaven. And I tell you, you
are Peter and upon this rock
I will build my church and
the powers of death shall not
prevail against it. I will give
you the keys of the kingdom
of heaven and whatever you
bind on earth shall be bound
in heaven, and whatever you
loose on earth shall be loosed
in heaven.
These verses are packed
full of implications for Peter
and the Church. First, the giv-
ing of the keys goes back to
a reference in Isaiah 22:15-25
where the key of the house
of David is given to open
and shut the doors (binding
and loosing), symbolizing the
authority of the king. Also,
given is a robe, symboliz-
ing the high priesthood, and
a girdle symbolizing hav-
ing girded your loin with
truth (Ephesians 6:14), like
a prophet battling the wiles
of the devil. These roles and
their authority were bestowed
on the steward Eliakim to
rule over the house (Gen-
esis 41:37-56) of the Davids
Kingdom as the second in
command, whom the master
has set over his household
(Matthew 24:25-47), and as
a father to the inhabitants.
(The title father in Latin
is papa and in English,
pope.) So the three ofces
of Jesus (priest, prophet, and
king) are being bestowed on
Simon Peter with Jesus giv-
ing of the keys of the king-
dom of heaven and he is be-
ing called the Pope.
Secondly, when Jesus calls
Simon the rock (Peter) he
is implying a divine ofce is
being bestowed. In the Old
Testament, the Rock re-
fers to God (Deuteromy 32:4,
14; Psalm 92:15) and in the
New Testament, Paul says the
Rock in the desert (Exodus
17:1-7, Numbers 20:7-11)
was Christ. (1 Corinthians
10:4) The divinity of the of-
ce is also implied from Je-
sus reference to his Father
in heaven revealing Jesus
identity to Simon Peter, not
human sources. When Simon
had the faith to believe and
speak this identity he be-
came the rock upon which
the Church is built. Thus Je-
sus in his blessing and nam-
ing is saying he will build his
Church on the divinely in-
spired faith of Peters ofce.
Thirdly, Jesus calling Si-
mon Peters father Jonah,
not his true name, John (John
1:42) implies functions of
the ofce are not relying on
the holiness of the person or
personal opinions of the one
holding the ofce. An im-
portant decision Peter would
have to make in the early
Church in this ofce is being
prophesized here by Jesus.
The reference to Jonah, who
resisted Gods call to preach
to Gentiles, points to Peters
personal biases against Gen-
tiles. As Jonah at Joppa (Jo-
nah 1:3) had to face a hard
decision on the Gentiles, Pe-
ter at Joppa had a vision, met
Cornelius, and baptized Gen-
tiles (Acts 10: 1-48). Realiz-
ing his personal biases were
wrong and that the Holy Spirit
was building the Church with
Gentiles, Peter at the Counsel
of Jerusalem spoke from his
divinely inspired ofce the
decision of the Church on
the Gentiles (Acts 15:6-21).
Then Paul, Barnabas, James
and the other apostles and
elders afrmed Peters deci-
sion, submitting to the deci-
sion of the Pope, a decision
that was counter to Peters
own personal biases.
Biblically, Peters ofce as
Pope has the authority of the
second in command in Jesus
Kingdom. Jesus made this
a divinely inspired ofce of
High Priest and protector of
the truth upon which he said
he would build his Church
and the powers of death shall
not prevail against it. Peters
successors in the ofce con-
tinue these roles, and the au-
thority of them, as Eliakim
continued the roles and au-
thority of the ofce of Shedna
(Isaiah 22:15-24).
Pope Francis has been se-
lected to hold this ofce for
the Church today. Pray for
him that he may live out this
divine call and be blessed by
Jesus, as Peter was blessed by
Jesus.

ect, with $10,000 (10%) in match
from County Engineer ofce

Insurance Companies
Legally Rip-Off Iowa
Injured Workers By . . .

Yes, insurance companies can legally pay
you less that what you are owed and do
not have to tell you the truth. Many injured
workers fail to learn the Injured Workers Bill
of Rights which includes: 1. Payment of Mileage at $.56
per mile 2. Money for Permanent Disability 3. 2nd Medical
Opinion in Admitted Claims. . . . A New Book reveals your
other rights and much more so you do not get ripped-off.
Iowa Work Injury Attorney Corey Walker offers his book at
no cost because since 1997, he has seen far too many hard
working Iowans who did not know their rights treated badly
by insurance companies. If you or a loved one have been
hurt at work and do not have an attorney claim your copy
(while supplies last). Call Now (800)-707-2552, ext. 311 (24
Hour Recording) or go to www.IowaWorkInjury.com. Our
