Local residents and businesses receive Governor's Volunteer Awards for 2014
Several Allamakee County
citizens were on hand to re-
ceive 2014 Governors Volun-
teer Awards from Iowa Gov-
ernor Terry E. Branstad and
Lt. Governor Kim Reynolds
during a special recognition
ceremony held in late June in
Cedar Falls. Lansing residents
Bruce Palmborg and Ric and
Betty Zarwell, Waukon resi-
dent Pam Delphey, and local
businesses Kerndt Brothers
Savings Bank of Lansing and
Harpers Ferry, and Upper
Iowa Resort and Rental of
Dorchester were each hon-
ored for the volunteer efforts
they have put forth this past
year, most of those local re-
cipients being represented in
the photographs below ac-
companying this article.
Its always a great plea-
sure for me to honor and rec-
ognize the volunteers who ac-
complish extraordinary things
through service to help their
communities, fellow citizens,
and the great state of Iowa,
said Governor Branstad.
These dedicated volunteers
lead by example - not only
encouraging the people they
help, but motivating others
to serve as well. I sincerely
thank them all for their dedi-
cation and efforts.
The Governors Volunteer
Awards (GVA) program was
created in 1982, with inau-
gural awards presented in
1983. What began as a small
program for state government
agencies has expanded over
the years and now provides
all Iowa non-prot, charita-
ble and government organi-
zations with an easy way to
honor their volunteers with a
prestigious state-level award.
Hundreds of volunteers are
recognized each year with
awards in one of four cate-
gories: Individual, Group,
Length of Service or Disaster
Volunteer.
Recipients of the Gover-
nors Volunteer Award do not
necessarily need to live in
Iowa, but their service must
have beneted Iowans or an
Iowa organization. Award cri-
teria include an individual or
group who has:
demonstrated exception-
al commitment to volunteer-
ism by helping with a special
project or ongoing activities
demonstrated exemplary
leadership, creativity, cooper-
ation and hard work in their
service to others
made an outstanding
contribution to their state or

by Bob Beach
During the regular meeting
of the Allamakee County

Initially a hobby, hosta breeding has grown
to international proportions for Bob Axmear
by Brianne Eilers
When he bought his rst
two hostas several years
ago, Waukon resident Bob
Axmear didnt have any idea
that his gardening hobby
would take him to the levels
it has. Axmear began his
hosta endeavor by purchasing
two plants at chain stores,
which he grew and was able
to divide and eventually sold
to a nursery.
The hobby kind of grew
into its own, Axmear said.
He explained a little bit about
the process of crossing the
hostas and how it can take
three to four years for a new
hybrid to stabilize. Axmear
says that when crossing
hostas, the female plant has to
be a streaked plant in order to
create variegated hostas.
He has also developed a
way to collect and store pollen
from hosta owers, as well as
for saving seeds. Axmear has
developed several hybrids, a
few of which he has named
for family members.
In addition to growing
hostas, Axmear taught
himself how to write code
and designed a website,
http://www.hostalibrary.org,
in order to show what each
plant people hybridized was
supposed to look like. The
website has grown to 17,000
photos of 6,000 plants and
now includes a free hosta
auction which people use
to sell their new plants. It
also includes articles and
information on growing
hostas, several which Axmear
has written himself.
Through the website,
Axmear has furnished
hostas, seed and pollen all
over the United States and
internationally.
Axmear has been running
the hosta library site for over
15 years. He noted that he
suffered injuries of a broken
back and a broken neck some
years ago, and breeding
hostas and running the
website are ways for him to
be able to keep active, despite
complications from those
injuries.
Axmear has also won
awards for his work with
hostas. In 2010, he received
the Alex J. Summers
Distinguished Merit Award
from the American Hosta
Society for his service to the
hosta industry. The award
was established in 1982 in
honor of one of the founding
members of the American
Hosta Society.
In 2012, Axmear received
the First Look Mildred Seaver
Award in the seedling and
sport competition, an award
that he is especially proud of.
That was the rst streaked
hosta to win that award,
Axmear noted.
With his accomplishments,
Axmear has been able to
give advice and growing
tips to many people through
the hosta library website.
In addition to working with
hostas, Axmear has also
worked with breeding day
lilies, oriental lilies and
angelsh.
After running the website
for so long, he is ready to
hand over the reins of the
website to a new webmaster,
in the hopes of being able
to step back and enjoy life a
little bit more.

in-law was seriously injured
at the intersection recently
and that he had a close call at
the same intersection himself
previously.
He said that there are "a lot
of different ways to get killed
there" because of limited
sight distance, especially west
of the intersection. "Even if
you do what you're expected
to do - stop and look - you
can't see what's coming," he
said, telling the Board that the
road needs to be reworked to
eliminate the dip in the road
west of the intersection.
Allamakee County Sheriff
Clark Mellick told the Board
that the main factors that
contribute to automobile
accidents include human
error, mechanical failure,
weather and engineering.
He said that the intersection
combines an engineering
problem with human error,
which makes the intersection
dangerous.
Allamakee County
Engineer Brian Ridenour said
that some things have been
done recently to improve the
safety of the intersection,
such as adding red ags to
the stop signs and rumble
strips to the north and south.
He said that the removal of
the pine trees to the west
would improve visibility
considerably, but the trees
are on private property and
the land owner does not want
them removed.
Ridenour told the Board
that a safety consultant
from the Iowa Department
of Transportation (DOT)
has offered some other
suggestions, including
removal of some non-
regulatory signs near the
intersection, "stop bar
painting," a median island,
reducing the speed limit on
the road, adding intersection
lighting (though only one
accident at the intersection
in the last ten years has been
at night) and adding ashing
LED beacons. He said that the
consultant did not recommend
making the intersection a
four-way stop, noting that
there were, on average, two
or fewer accidents at the
intersection each year, while
the threshold for a four-way
stop at an intersection is ve
or more accidents per year,
adding that a four-way stop at
the intersection would likely
result in rear-end collisions.
Ridenour also noted that,
based on DOT data, the
intersection is ranked as the
23rd least safe in the county
and 6,831st statewide.
Gallagher said that all of
Ridenour's suggestions have
merit, but insisted that the
only way to really x the
problem is to x the road.
Board Chairman Larry
Schellhammer asked
Ridenour to prepare an
estimate on the cost to
remove the dip from the road.
Ridenour agreed to do so and
said that he would also apply
for a grant for solar-powered
safety beacons, which cost
approximately $2,500 each,
and move forward with
implementing other safety
measures at the intersection.
During regular business,
the Board held a public
hearing regarding a rezoning
request by Launee Halvorson
for property on Waterville
Road. Allamakee County
Zoning Administrator
Tom Blake said that
Halvorson would like to
build a commercial storage
facility on the property
and has requested rezoning
from agricultural (A-1) to
commercial (C-1).
Blake said that no
objections to the change had
been heard when the Planning
and Zoning Commission
held a public hearing on
the request and that the
Commission recommended
approval with the stipulation
that the property be used
only for a commercial
storage facility. Hearing
no comments, the Board
closed the public hearing and
passed an amendment to the
zoning ordinance and map in
accordance with the Planning
and Zoning Commission's
recommendation.
The Board also met with
Allamakee County Attorney
Jill Kistler and bond attorney
Bob Jostens (by telephone)
to complete the process of
securing a $750,000 loan
on behalf of the member
townships of the Waukon
Area Fire Protection District
to fund the construction of
a new re station. Kistler
presented the Board with
eight resolutions to approve
separate loan agreements
with each of the townships,
with the principle amounts
determined by property
valuations, as follows: Center
Township, $29,838.20;
Franklin Township,
$19,016.46; French Creek
Township, $59,150.02;
Hanover Township,
$74,466.16; Jefferson
Township, $154,861.57;
Ludlow Township,
$111,346.97; Makee
Township, $131,260.84;
Union Prairie Township,
$170.059.78. Jostens said
the loan process would be
complete Tuesday, June 22.
The Board also agreed that
the townships would be
billed equal amounts to cover
Josten's fee as bond attorney.
In other business, the
Board signed a program
contract with the Iowa
Development Authority and
other paperwork related
to a $311,972 Community
Development Block Grant for
the construction of a wellness
facility at TASC in Waukon.
The Board also accepted and
placed on le the Recorder's
quarterly report and both
the semi-annual and annual
reports from the Treasurer's
ofce.

was baptized at St. Pauls
United Methodist Church in
Waukon and attended school
in Waukon. He became an
apprentice to his father Fred,
owner of Fish Radio & TV
Service in downtown Waukon.
September 6, 1961 Delbert was
drafted into the United States
Army. He served for two years,
spending 18 months stationed
in Germany. He was honorably
discharged August 21, 1963.
December 20, 1959 Delbert

Zalmona Presbyterian Church,
rural Waukon. Their rst child,
Daniel Delbert, was born April
9, 1965. Their second child,
Jesse John, was born October

In 1965 the family moved

to northeast Iowa. They
eventually settled on Jeglum
Road near Waterville, where
they resided for 22 years. In
1997 they moved to Waukon to
Delberts childhood home.
From a young age, Tiny
showed a gift for all things
electronic or mechanical,
as well as a love for the
outdoors. He spent 30 years
in this area making a living
logging, roong and painting.
He enjoyed trapping, which
he learned from his father-in-
law, Rueben Meier of rural
Waukon. Tiny trapped fox,
mink, raccoon and coyote and
sold the furs. He walked many
miles in his life looking for
ginseng to sell. He also joined
friends to hunt deer over the
years. Many years he looked
for morel mushrooms in the
spring. He liked working in
the family garden. The family
went shing through the
years, too. Tiny really enjoyed
canoeing, beginning in the
early 1970s by buying a canoe.
Tiny loved music, especially
country music, having grown
up listening to his father Freds
band, the Hillbilly Rhythm
Boys.

Floyd August Ernst
Friedrich was born February
6, 1926 (2/6/26), the eldest
of three sons, to Daniel and
Mabel (Lauck) Friedrich.
He was born and raised on
the family farm in Howard
County north of Elma. Floyd
was baptized and conrmed
at St. Pauls Maple Leaf
Lutheran Church, where he
was a life-long member.
It was at the Rainbow Hall
in Riceville that he met his
bride-to-be, Alberta Norman.
They joined their lives
together June 7, 1949 at St.
Peters Lutheran Church in
Riceville. To this union were
born four children: Connie
Jean, Roger Lee, Julie Ann
(deceased) and Carol Sue.
Floyd graduated from
the eighth grade at Howard
County #4 Country School
near his home and worked on
his parents farm until he was
18. He then went to work at
Chamberlains in Waterloo
where they made wringers for
washing machines and later
at Oliver Tractor Company
in Charles City. In 1951 he
and Alberta bought their farm
north of Elma where he lived
and farmed the rest of his life.
Floyd was a good steward
of the land and made many
improvements to the land and
homestead over the next sixty
years, including building a
large part of their home and
a complete workshop where
he could x almost anything.
He had a farm pond dug when
the old barn was demolished
where he and Alberta could
enjoy the wildlife that it
attracted.
In the 1960s, Floyd started
selling Vigortone Feeds
which widened their circle
of friends with other feed
dealers and also started their
love of traveling with them
on the trips they won through
the feed business. Floyd and
Alberta traveled to over 15
countries, states and cities
all over the United States,
including Alaska and Hawaii.
They always included stops
at the relatives on those
trips when possible. Another
activity he took up at this
time was ying airplanes.
He got his pilots license
and enjoyed giving family
members rides over the Iowa
countryside.
Floyd loved to sh with
friends and grandkids in
the pond on the farm. He
converted the old chicken
house into a woodworking
shop where he made many
cherished gifts for family
members over the years.
Floyd loved a good game
of 500 or Euchre and could
always somehow stretch his
cards to make the bid.
Floyd was active in St.
Pauls Maple Leaf Lutheran
Church all his life, from
serving on the church council
to every remodeling project
that took place in the church
over the years.
Floyd went to be with
his Lord and Savior at his
home with his wife of 65
years, Alberta, at his side.
He is survived by Alberta,
and their children, Connie
(Tom) Buresh, Roger (Julie)
Friedrich and Carol (Dennis)
Krueger; their grandchildren,
Brent (Rachael) Buresh,
Karri (Dale) Rutledge,
Amanda (Greg) Grimm,
David Krueger, Michael
Bosco (deceased), Nicolas
(Vanessa) Peterson, Joseph
Peterson, Kurt Krueger
and Kelly Krueger; and
their great-grandchildren,
Madelyn Marquardt, Aubrey,
Fiona and Brielle Buresh,
Levi Peterson, Austin

Waukon City Council meets with
engineer to discuss 3rd Street NE
by Bob Beach
During its regular meeting
Monday, July 21 the Waukon
City Council met with Lyle
TeKippe of TeKippe Engi-
neering (a division of Fehr
Graham Engineering) to dis-
cuss ongoing problems with
the paving of Third Street
Northeast. Since the com-
pletion of the project, sever-
al residents have complained
that storm water from the
street now nds its way into
their driveways, yards, ga-
rages and homes. TeKippe
said that part of the challenge
in paving the street was that
the homes on one side of the
street are signicantly lower
than the homes on the other
side of the street. He said that
prior to the recent paving,
the cross slope of the street
was irregular to allow for
that difference, whereas the
new street has a standard two
percent cross slope. He said
that the result is that some
of the homes are now below
the street level and that the
alternative would have been
unacceptably steep driveways
on the other side of the street.
He further explained that
another part of the problem
is that there is not enough
storm sewer capacity to han-
dle heavy rains. He said that
some improvements had been
made since the heavy rains
in late June but that there is
"no easy answer for all condi-
tions." He said that he would
look at individual situations
to see what further improve-
ments could be made to im-
prove drainage.
"The way it is now is not
acceptable," said Council-
man Steve Wiedner. "I want
to make those people happy
after all the stress they've
been through." He presented
the Council with a written
motion that was shared with
TeKippe but was not read out
loud or otherwise shared with
others at the meeting.
Asked for his opinion
about Wiedner's motion, City
Attorney Jim Garrett said that
if the Council has concerns
about the professional guid-
ance it has received, it would
be reasonable to consult with
another engineer, but added

that he didn't know that the
project could have been done
better.
TeKippe said that if the
budget for the project had
been unlimited, the project
could have been done bet-
ter by adding capacity to the
storm sewer, but that would
have expanded the storm
sewer part of the project into
downtown.
Former mayor Keith
Schroeder, whose home is lo-
cated on Third Street North-
east, said that his home is
now 13 inches below the
road. He said that prior to
the recent paving project, the

ly even on both sides of the
street, adding that the homes
on one side of the street had
been sacriced to rain water
so that homes on the other
side of the street wouldn't
have steep driveways. "The
only solution is to tear out the
whole street and start over,"
he said. "All we ask is that the
street be done right."
TeKippe responded that
if the street were lowered as
Schroeder suggested, freez-
ing of water lines beneath the
street would become a con-
cern. He also reiterated that
the driveways on one side of
the street would need to be
made unduly steep. "You'd
be exchanging one unaccept-
able condition for another,"
he said.
Councilman Trent Mitch-

to give TeKippe a chance to

died for lack of a second and
TeKippe agreed to look fur-

project as well as a payment
to Skyline Construction for
its work on the project. The
Council also scheduled a spe-
cial meeting for Monday, Au-
gust 4 at 6 p.m. to meet with
TeKippe and a representative
from Skyline Construction.
The Council also held
a public hearing regarding
property recently purchased
by Innovative Ag Services
and annexed to the City.
Hearing no comments about
adding the property to the
Southeast Urban Renewal
Area, the public hearing was
closed. The Council then
passed a resolution to add
the property to the Southeast
Urban Renewal Area, passed
an ordinance regarding TIF
revenue from the property
and an ordinance to change
the zoning district classica-
tion of the property from res-
idential (R-2) to manufactur-
ing (M-1). The Council also
scheduled a public hearing
for August 4 regarding the
development agreement with
Innovative Ag Service.
In other business, the
Council discussed its policy
to refund a portion of water
bills in cases where charges
are more than ve times more
than average. Councilman
Mitchell said that such leaks
are the responsibility of prop-
erty owners and the refunded
money could be better spent
on other things. Councilman
Don Steffens said that he
agreed that leaks are the re-
sponsibility of property own-
ers but suggested that the pol-
icy should be left as it is and
the Council could determine
if refunds are warranted on
a a case-by-case basis. After
some discussion, the Coun-
cil agreed to alter the policy
to allow for refunds, but only
once. City Attorney Garrett
agreed to draft a new policy
for the Council's consider-
ation.

Sugar Creek Bluff hike
kicks off River Bluff Daze
A summer hike to Sugar Creek Bluff is a new addition
this year to the annual River Bluff Daze celebration in Fer-
ryville, WI July 26. This hike will be co-sponsored with
Mississippi Valley Conservancy as part of the Linked to the
Land series and is sponsored by Mayo Clinic Health Sys-
tem-Fransciscan Healthcare of LaCrosse, WI. Participants
should meet at the Ferryville Boat Landing on the north end
of town. Access is from Market Street at the south end of
the Cheapo Depot building. Treats and instructions will be
available starting at 8:30 a.m. and then everyone will car-
pool to the trailhead off North Buck Creek Road.
Since the vegetation is growing rapidly due to all of the
rain recently, participants should wear long pants and apply
insect repellent liberally. The Mississippi Valley Conservan-
cy will be mowing before the hike one more time. The group
will be looking for summer wild owers blooming and birds
ying in the canopy of the forest. The remarkable view of
the Mississippi from that bluff will reward everyone when
they get out to the point of Sugar Creek Bluff.
Mike Ripp, Martin Murphy, and Jon Rigden will be lead-
ing this hike. They all have extensive experience with the
features of local natural areas. This is a fairly level hike and
the total distance is about one and a half miles - a family
friendly walk.

The Lansing City Council
met in regular session Monday
night, July 21. Councilmen
Dave Darling and Pat Wagner
were absent. Mayor Brennan
read the second of three read-
ings of Ordinance #191 re-
garding the increase in water/
sewer rates. The third and nal
reading will take place at the
next Council meeting, August
4. The new rates will go into
effect August 11.
Several Southtown resi-
dents addressed the Council
regarding the campground
at 721 Pearl Street owned by
David Swenson. A lengthy
discussion ensued. Shirley
Fink wanted the Council to
know the neighbors are all op-
posed to the campers parked
on the lot because of the noise
and appearance. Mayor Bren-
nan said the Council is look-
ing into ways of preventing
further use of the parcel as a
campground, and that they
were waiting for advice from
the City Attorney on how to
proceed.
Mabel Terry asked the
Council to waive a sewer bill
in the amount of $133.21. In a
memo to the Council, People
Service representative Heath
Draeger said there was exces-
sive water usage due to a leak
in the hot water heater that oc-
curred when Terry was out of
town. As is the current policy,
the Council agreed to waive
1/2 of the $133.21 sewer bill,
$66.61.
Main Street Lansing
spokesman Joe Papp invited
the Council to attend a Tour-
ism Workshop and dinner to
be held at 6 p.m. Monday, July
28 at Sweeneys on the River.
The meeting will feature Don-
na Harris from Heritage Con-
sulting. The goal of the visit
is to understand the current
conditions affecting tourism
in Lansing. The results of Har-
riss assessment will be pre-
sented on Thursday, July 31 at
7:30 a.m. at Kerndt Brothers
Community Center. Papp also
encouraged the Council mem-
bers to participate in open
dialog so that the Council and
Main Street Lansing can work
together to promote the town.
Tell us what youre think-
ing, Papp said. The visit is
provided by Main Street Iowa;
there is no charge to Main
Street Lansing or the City.
Jerry Aperans, Street Su-
perintendent, presented infor-
mation regarding DNR burn
pile requirements.
The City was visited by
a DNR representative who
inspected the burn site. He
found microwaves, tires and
various other items in viola-
tion of standards in the burn
pile and gave the City a warn-
ing this time. However, if it
occurs again the City will face
serious nes. Aperans pre-
sented several options for cor-
recting the problem, including
fencing the area, controlling
access, ceasing burning, re-
locating the burn operations,
chipping limbs to provide
wood chips and rewood for
residents. He said the current
site is within 1/4 mile of two
residences, and will require
waivers before burning opera-
tions can continue.
Parks Board representative
Dave Pleasants asked permis-
sion from the Council to ex-
tend the swimming season at
the pool through August, the
hottest part of the year. The
regular summer session ends
August 8. The proposed ses-
sions would begin August 18;
the pool would be open Mon-
days, Wednesdays and Fridays
from 4 to 7 p.m. and Saturdays
from 1 to 4 p.m. Cost to swim-
mers without season tickets
will be $3.00 per session.
The Council approved the re-
quest. The Parks Board also
requested permission to re-
place the pools sweeper/vac-
uum, which was approved by
the Council for up to $3,000.
The Council also approved an
$8,000 Minnesota Twins grant
application which will be sub-
mitted by the Parks Board.

ACSD Board addresses variety of issues in nal meeting before 2014-2015 school year
by Brianne Eilers
The Allamakee Community
School District (ACSD) Board
of Directors met for its regular
monthly meeting Monday
night, July 21. During the
secretarys nancial report,
Board Secretary Janice Rea
informed the Board that
the administration ofces
are getting year-end reports
nished up and submitted. She
also noted that cash ow is
good for the district.
Superintendent Dave
Herold discussed planning
for the house building project
for the construction class in
the upcoming school year. He
noted that they are working
on a contract for the project.
He also presented the Board
members with the preliminary
Annual Progress Report, and
noted that he would discuss it
in more detail in August.
During her report, East and
West Elementary Principal Ann
Hart noted that she and other
staff members had attended
a conference in Dubuque to
learn about using a universal
screener as a tool to evaluate
reading levels. Hart noted that
it is similar to the evaluation
process they are already using,
which is done three times a
year. Results will be entered
into a statewide data base three
times a year. She also noted
they are looking into a similar
tool to evaluate math skills.
Activities Director and
Waukon High School Assistant
Principal Jennifer Garin noted
that the 2013/2014 activity
schedule has nally come to
a close. This was a bad year
for rescheduling, she noted.
She noted that sports camps
will be coming up, and looking
ahead to the 2014/2015 activity
schedule, WSH will host the
varsity conference volleyball
tournament, as well as the
same for girls golf.
Waukon High School
Principal Dan Diercks noted
that the second session of
credit recovery will begin next
week. We are excited for
the upcoming school year,
Diercks also noted. Curriculum
Director Gretchen DeVore
explained to the Board the
many conferences and sessions
she has attended during the
summer school break to stay
abreast of the latest technology
tools, activities and resources
that are available to enhance
curriculum.
Food Service Director Julie
Magner noted that the second
two weeks of the Summer
Feeding Program are set to
begin. During the rst part of
the program an average of 185-
200 students took advantage of
the program for lunches, and
75-100 students ate breakfast.
She also noted that June 24
the State reviewed the ACSD
Summer Feeding Program and
complimented the district on
an excellent program.
Transportation Director
Randy Nordheim noted that the
district received two new buses,
but the salesman inadvertently
left the air-ride feature off the
order, so the buses were sent
back to be equipped with that.
Board members also examined
a copy of the building usage
report.
In personnel matters, the
Board accepted Todd Neals
resignation from his Industrial
Technology position, with
the approval of a Sharing
Agreement with Postville
High School for Industrial
Technology, with Postville
now able to hold Neal's
contract. Kody Begnaud and
Lexie Bieber were approved
as volunteer cheer assistants,
pending a background check,
as with all hiring. The Board
also re-approved Brenda
Schmalzried as a substitute bus
driver, pending a background
check. Herold explained
that she had been approved
previously, but had not been a
substitute for the district.
The Board also approved
the resignation of Bob Wasson
from his position as head
softball coach, pending nding
a suitable replacement. Staff
was also approved for the 21st
Century program. Mason Berns
was transferred from assistant
Junior High volleyball coach to
assistant Junior High football
coach. Michael Shupe was
approved as a volunteer girls
cross country coach.
Donna May was hired as a
5.75 hour per day associate.
The Board also approved
increases in hours for Food
Service Employees due to non-
replacement of a retiring staff
member. The Board approved
hiring Jarod Dahlstrom as
a volunteer football coach.
Madison Reiser was hired as
a 5.75 per hour day associate
at the high school. The Board
also accepted the resignation
of Mark Schmadeke from
his varsity assistant football
coaching position, pending
nding a suitable replacement.
In other new business, Staff
Policies and the Administrative
Rules Handbook for 2014-
2015 were approved. Herold
noted that any changes were
mainly minor changes, such as
grammatical changes. DeVore
is now listed as the Equity
Coordinator, and the Student
Computer Usage Agreement
was also approved. There are
some changes to the policy
regarding breakage and damage
insurance. This coming year,
there will be no coverage for
accidental damage. The school
will repair accidental damage
for the rst two occurrences
to a students computer at no
cost to the student, but if a
third occurrence of accidental
damage occurs, the student
will be responsible to pay
a $100 deductible, and for
each occurrence after that,
the student will be required to
pay the actual damage to the
computer. As for computers
that are damaged as a result of
intentional damage, students
will pay for the replacement of
the computer.
The Board approved joining
the ISFIS (Iowa School Finance
Informational Services), which
will help keep the district in
the know about legislation and
possible avenues for funding.
A Joint Sharing Agreement
for the 2014-2015 school year
between Postville CSD and
ACSD for an Industrial Arts
Instructor was approved, with
50% for Postville CSD and
50% for ACSD, and Postville
being the contract holder. The
Board also approved LAU/ELL
Plan, the Nutrition Handbook,
and the School Breakfast/
Lunch Free & Reduced Policy.
Bids for milk from Swiss
Valley and for bread from
Pan-O-Gold were approved
as well. The Board also
approved to continue the Back
Pack Program. The ACSD
partners with the Northeast
Iowa Food Bank to provide
kid-friendly, non-perishable
food for students in need to
ensure they have something to
eat over weekends or during
breaks when school meals are
not available to them. Food is
distributed to students at the
end of the school day each
Friday.
Changes to the Alternative
School Program were
approved. For the 2013-2014
school year, 15.00 credits were
needed to graduate. For the
2014-2015 school year, 16.00
credits will be required, in
2015-2016, 17.00 credits will
be required, and in 2016-2017,
18.00 credits will be required.
The Board approved the
Legislative Priorities for the
upcoming year. They include,
supporting a mechanism
for funding school districts
transportation costs that does
not directly or indirectly
impact funding for the
educational program. The
Board supports the inclusion
of drop-out prevention and
funding for at-risk students in
the foundation formula and the
inclusion of socio-economic
stats as a factor in determining
a students at-risk status, as
well as supporting increased
exibility in the use of drop-out
prevention and at-risk funding.
The Board also supports
setting supplemental state aid
(replaces the term allowable
growth) by the date specied
in the Iowa Code at a rate that
encourages continuous school
improvement and reects actual
cost increases experienced
by districts and AEAs. The
priority is to increase the state
cost per pupil and the spending

tion Campaign. Along with
numerous other individuals,
he and Betty worked closely
with county ofcials to devel-
op a new ordinance to manage
industrial mining that blasts
into the silica sand aquifers,
which provide drinking wa-
ter to many thousands of
Iowans. The new ordinance
protects taxpayers, homes
and businesses, county roads
and bridges, trout streams,
recreational trails, and other
natural and cultural features.
The Zarwells also created
the Rivers & Bluffs Fall Bird-
ing Festival and coordinated
its activities for eight years.
In the early 2000s Ric facil-
itated numerous meetings
of a 44-member Allamakee
Blufand Protection Study
Committee, established by
the Allamakee County Board
of Supervisors. The commit-
tee developed a set of protec-
tive measures that were ap-
proved in their entirety by the
Board to protect the character
of Allamakee Countys scenic
blufands for the enjoyment
and benet of present and
future generations; and will
help the county maintain its
status as having the highest
per capita income from tour-
ism of any Iowa county.
For many years Ric and
Betty have both been active
volunteers with the Friends
of Pool 9Upper Mississippi
River Refuge, of which Ric
was a founding board mem-
ber. For more than a decade,
the Zarwells have docu-
mented Allamakee Countys
steadily increasing popula-
tion of Sandhill Cranes. Oth-
er ongoing volunteer activi-
ties include monitoring Bald
Eagle and Trumpeter Swan
nests, and documenting in-
creasing nesting successes.
Ric was part of a small team
that founded the Friends of
the Migratory Bird/Duck
Stamp, a national organiza-
tion that promotes increasing
sales of Duck Stamps to
expand the amount of habitat
protected within the Nation-
al Wildlife Refuge System.
Also, for many years, the
Zarwells spearheaded inves-
tigations of wintering Golden
Eagles in northeast Iowa.
Several years ago, Ric was
appointed by Iowa Gover-
nor Chet Culver to represent
conservation interests as a
member of Iowas Mississip-
pi River Council, made up of
representatives of Iowa coun-
ties, river communities, and
major interests of the public.
Recently, Branstad reappoint-
ed Ric to that position.
The Governor and I are
strong believers that our
community volunteers, char-
itable non-prots, and faith-
based institutions are often
best equipped to provide
long-term solutions to the
challenges we face, said Lt.
Governor Reynolds. Some
of our most promising and
cost-effective solutions to
literacy, disaster response,
drop-out prevention, and
community development are
fueled by tapping into our
best assets - our people and
our volunteer spirit."

WATER IS KEY TO LIFE
Water is the key to life
- every system in our body
depends on it. Water helps
carry nutrients to our cells,
helps rid toxins from our
organs, and keeps our nose,
ears and throat moist. If we
dont drink enough water,
we become dehydrated.
Dehydration can lead to
dizziness, fatigue and
confusion. We lose water on
a daily basis by breathing,
urinating and sweating.
Because we constantly lose
water, we must repeatedly
replace what we lose.
The Institute of Medicine
states that an adequate daily
intake of water for men is
about 13 cups and about nine
cups for women. Water comes
from more than just uids; it
is a major component of many
foods. In fact, it is estimated
that 20 percent of our water
needs are met through food.
Foods with high water
content add volume but
minimal calories to the diet.
Eating foods high in water can
promote a feeling of fullness.
Fruits and vegetables are
two food groups that have
generally high water content.
Fruits, vegetables and dairy
products like milk and yogurt
can help you reach your daily
water recommendations.
Fruits high in water
include watermelon, citrus
fruits, grapes, apples, papaya,
strawberries, apricots and
cherries. Vegetables high in
water include carrots, bell
peppers, lettuce, tomato,
cucumber, squash, celery,
broccoli, cauliower and
spinach.
Make drinking water more
fun by avoring it with fruits,
vegetables or herbs. Here is
a quick recipe for Cucumber
Mint Cooler:
Take six cups of chilled
water, add 12 thin slices of
cucumber and a few sprigs
of mint. Chill for 30 minutes.
Add ice cubes just before
serving. When the water
is down to 1/4 full in the
pitcher, rell with water and
place back in the fridge. You
can do this several times.
Store in the fridge up to 24
hours. Experiment with your
own avor combinations
try lemons, oranges, apples,
strawberries and more!

role water plays in your

Waukon baseball team has season brought to a close at #2 Waverly-Shell Rock
The 2014 Waukon base-
ball team brought both its
regular season and its overall
season to a close within just
a few days of one another
this past week, both ending
on differing notes. The Indi-
ans wrapped up their regular
season with an 11-6 victory at
Charles City Tuesday, July 15
in a game originally sched-
uled for June 30 before hav-
ing their season brought to
completion by a 15-3 loss at
second-rated Waverly-Shell
Rock in the opening round of
Class 3A District Tournament
play Friday, July 18.
The Indians nished their
season with a 6-25 overall
record that includes a 4-14
mark that places them sev-
enth in the nal Northeast
Iowa Conference standings.
Waverly-Shell Rock went on
to defeat Decorah, 10-9, in
the Class 3A District 5 cham-
pionship game Monday, July
21 to earn a Substate berth.
at Charles City ...
The baseball Indians
jumped out early and never
really looked back in closing
out its regular season with
an 11-6 win at Charles City
Tuesday, July 15. The Tribe
diamond dwellers took ad-
vantage of host Comet gen-
erosity that included 10 free
passes to boost them to a 4-0
headstart and a ve-run late
burst that helped secure the
triumph in a game original-
ly scheduled for June 30 but
claimed by wet weather.
The Indians took advan-
tage of some of that Comet
generosity right away in the
opening frame for two quick
runs. A one-out walk drawn
by junior catcher Adam Ben-
zing was followed by singles
from the junior tandem of
center elder Jake Ronan and
pitcher Sully Bucheit, Bu-
cheit driving in Adam Ben-
zings courtesy runner, junior
Landon Sivesind, and Ronan
for that 2-0 headstart. Two
more walks in the second
to eighth grade right elder
Mitchell Snitker and Adam
Benzing were followed by a
single from Ronan to improve
that Indian lead to 3-0 through
two complete frames.
The generosity kept com-
ing in the third inning, as
junior third baseman Brock
Waters was hit by a pitch and
senior second baseman Tyler
Benzing and junior left eld-
er Marshall Lyons each drew
a walk to load the bases in
time for Snitker to be hit by a
pitch to score Waters for a 4-0
Indian lead. The Tribe offense
nally fell silent in the fourth,
with Charles Citys bats nal-
ly coming alive with two sin-
gles and a double around an
Indian error to cut that Indian
lead in half at 4-2 at the end
of four frames.
Waukons response to that
Comet scoring was a ve-run
eruption in the top of the fth
inning, all on just two hits.
Waters drew a lead-off walk
and was joined in loading
the bases by Lyons reaching
on an error and Snitker also
drawing a walk. Ronan then
stepped to the plate and de-
livered a bases-clearing triple
to start up the Indian offense
once again. Sophomore des-
ignated hitter Chris Miller
followed Ronan with a walk
before Bucheit singled in
Ronan and then an error in se-
nior shortstop Parker Hesses
at-bat allowed Miller to score
and improve the Indian mar-
gin to 9-2.
The Indians gave back one
of those runs in the bottom
of the sixth inning, a lead-
off walk being followed by
back-to-back Comet singles
for a run. The Tribe took that
run, plus another, right back,
however, in the top of the
seventh when Adam Benzing
and Ronan drilled back-to-
back singles, courtesy runner
Sivesind scored on a ground-
out by Miller and Ronan
blazed home on a wild pitch,
pushing the Indian advantage
to 11-3 heading into the host
teams nal at-bats.
That nal Comet go-round
started off well with back-
to-back singles followed by
a one-out hit batsman and
back-to-back walks to help
cut the Indian lead to 11-5. A
line-out to left eld brought
the Comets one run closer,
but sophomore Haden Ham-
mel struck the next Charles
City batter out to stop the
bleeding and clinch the 11-6
Indian victory.
Bucheit secured the pitch-
ing win, throwing the rst
ve complete innings and al-
lowing seven hits, two walks
and three runs, only one of
them earned. Ronan came on
for one and a third innings to
allow three hits, a walk and
three runs - all earned, while
striking out one batter. Ham-
mel nished out the games
nal two-thirds of an inning,
allowing no hits but two
walks while striking out the
nal batter.
Ronan was ve-for-ve in
the contest with a triple and
four RBI, scoring three runs
of his own. Bucheit drove in
three Indian runs with two
singles in ve at-bats, with
Hesse and Adam Benzing
collecting the other Indian
hits, one single each, and
Snitker, Adam Benzing and
Waters each scoring two runs.
First-round District
Tournament at Waverly-SR...
Continuation of the Wau-
kon baseball season faced a
formidable obstacle in the
second-rated Go-Hawks of
Waverly-Shell Rock in the
opening round of Class 3A
District Tournament Friday,
July 18 at Waverly. That ob-
stacle proved to grow by
multiple runs in three of the
high-powered Go-Hawks
four innings at the plate on
the way to a 15-3 Indian loss
and end to their season.
The Indians didnt look
to be in too much awe of the
highly-regarded Go-Hawks
early on, getting nearly half
of their total hits for the game
in their rst at-bats, back-
to-back singles from junior
center elder Jake Ronan and
sophomore designated hitter
Chris Miller. Those two bas-
erunners were stranded, but
perhaps primed the pump for
the Tribes early pacekeeping.
Waverly-Shell Rock start-
ed its initial at-bats off with
a triple and run-scoring sin-
gle, but the Indian defense
rose up to silence any further
Go-Hawk scoreboard damage
and trail by just a 1-0 result
after one frame. The Indians
got that run right back in the
top of the second inning, with
the senior tandem of short-
stop Parker Hesse and second
baseman Tyler Benzing each
drawing a walk and Hesse
then scoring on an errant
pick-off throw to rst base to
knot the game at 1-1.
The Indians gave Waver-
ly-Shell Rock considerable
help in the bottom of that
second frame, the Go-Hawks
getting four consecutive free
passes that included three
walks and a hit batsman to
score a run, but then belting a
single and scoring an unheard
of two runs on a sacrice y
to left eld to bolt ahead to a
6-1 advantage after two com-
plete innings.
After holding the Indians
scoreless in the top of the
third inning, Waverly-Shell
Rock opened up its offense
even further with ve more
runs in the bottom of the
frame. Three more walks and
a hit batsman continued to aid
the Go-Hawk effort, which
was also fueled by three more
singles and another double
to improve Waverly-Shell
Rocks advantage to 11-1.
The Indians managed a
pair of runs in their nal
two innings at the plate, one
each in the fourth and fth
innings, but Waverly-Shell
Rock tacked on another four
runs between those two Indi-
an tallies. Three more singles,
two more walks and an Indian
error pushed Waverly-Shell
Rocks scoreboard total to 15
runs and enough of a margin
to implement a mercy-rule
end to the game.
The Indian run in the
fourth got its start from a sin-
gle by junior pitcher Sully
Bucheit, with Hesse reaching
on a elders choice that out-
ed Bucheit. A pair of passed
balls brought Hesse around
to third base, from where he
scored on an error in junior
third baseman Brock Wa-
ters at-bat. The Indians nal
opportunity to avoid a mer-
cy-rule end to the contest also
got its start with a single from
junior catcher Adam Ben-
zing, who then completed the
basepath circuit on passed
balls to cut the Go-Hawk lead
to 15-3. Even though Ronan
and Bucheit each drew walks
and moved into scoring posi-
tion on passed balls, neither
would make any further dent
in the Go-Hawk lead before a
pair of nal outs were record-
ed to seal the 15-3 Indian de-
feat and an end to the Tribes
2014 season.
Bucheit, Ronan and Miller
were each one-for-two with a
single each in the ballgame,
with Tyler Benzing going
one-for-one with a walk
and Adam Benzing popping
one single in three at-bats.
Adam Benzing also scored a
run, with Hesse posting the
Tribes other two scoreboard
tallies.
Sophomore Haden Ham-
mel suffered the pitching
loss, giving up three hits,
four walks and six earned
runs while striking out one
batter in just one complete
inning on the mound to start
the game. Ronan tossed an in-
ning and two-thirds to allow
four hits, three walks and ve
earned runs while recording
one strike-out. Bucheit n-
ished the games nal inning
and one-third, allowing four
hits, two walks and four runs
- three of them earned.

Kee baseball team splits rst two district tournament games to bring season to a close
by Val Meyer
The 2014 Kee baseball
season came to a close this
past week, as the Hawks had
their postseason tournament
journey cut short just two
games into District Tourna-
ment play. Kee opened its
postseason trail with a 7-1
win over Wapsie Valley at
Postville Tuesday, July 15 but
then had its season ended two
days later with a 5-4 loss to
the host Pirates of Postville
in a nine-inning brawl in the
District seminals.
The Hawks wrapped up
their 2014 campaign with
an overall record of 23-17,
including a mark of 10-6 in
Upper Iowa Conference play
that placed them fourth over-
all in the nal 10-team stand-
ings. Postville went on to also
have its season brought to
completion in the very next
round of the district tourna-
ment, losing by a 10-0 result
in ve innings against Denver
in the Class 1A District Dis-
trict 7 championship game
Saturday, July 19.
District Quarternals vs.
Wapsie Valley ...
The baseball Hawks only
managed to score in two of
their seven innings in the
opening round of Class 1A
District Tournament play
Tuesday, July 15 at Post-
ville against Wapsie Valley.
Those two innings, howev-
er, featured scoring spurts of
four and three runs and were
coupled by a nearly blanking
defensive effort by the Hawks
as they advanced down the
postseason tournament trail
with a 7-1 victory over the
Warriors.
Kees defensive effort was
headlined by a three-hit pitch-
ing performance hurled at the
Warriors for six innings by
senior Jared Donahue, who
also struck out six batters and
walked two in allowing that
lone Wapsie Valley run in the
fth inning. Fellow senior
Matt Manning came on for
the games nal inning to al-
low just one hit and strike out
one batter in nishing off the
Hawk victory.
With the defensive aspect
well in hand, Kees offense
didnt have much consisten-
cy through the games seven
innings but certainly proved
to be effective when it did
strike. The Hawks managed
just four hits of their own in
the ballgame, but beneted
from drawing 10 walks, us-
ing a combination of those
means to jump out to a good
lead right away in the rst
inning against the Warriors
with four quick runs. It was
not until the top of the fth
inning that Kee scored again,
pushing three more runs
across home plate to counter
the lone run scored by Wap-
sie Valley and complete the
7-1 Hawk victory.
Senior Jason Delaney was
one-for-three at the plate with
a double and a walk for a run
scored and a team-high three
RBI. In addition to his pitch-
ing win, Donahue was one-
for-four with two RBI and
one double to further Kees
offense. The junior tandem
of Travis Colsch and Ryan
Kuhn collected the only other
Kee hits in the contest, Kuhn
belting a double of his own
and Colsch swatting a single.
It was great to win the
rst tournament game, Kee
baseball coach Gene Schultz
said.
District Seminals vs.
Postville ...
Kees second district tour-
nament game Thursday, July
17 matched the Hawks up
against a Postville team they
had swept during the regular
season, although by differing
results of just 6-4 in eight in-
nings in mid-June and 12-0
in just ve innings just a
week earlier. It was that mid-
June Pirate team that showed
up to battle the Hawks this
time around, taking Kee to
extra innings once again but
this time doing the nal scor-
ing to end the Hawks season
with a 5-4 defeat.
Despite the game be-
ing played at Postville, Kee
was listed as the home team
with its higher tournament
seeding. Neither team could
nd home early on in the
contest, Kee nally drawing
rst blood with a single run
by senior Quinn Brennan in
the bottom of the third frame.
That single run was all the
scoreboard would show until
a busy exchange between the
two clubs in the sixth inning.
To start that sixth frame,
Postville nally got itself on
the scoreboard, and in a big
way, as the Pirates came alive
to push three runs across
home plate. Kee respond-
ed right away,
however, as the
Hawks notched
a pair of runs
from the senior
tandem of Ja-
son Delaney
and Matt Man-
ning to knot
the score at 3-3
with just one
inning of regu-
lation play re-
maining.
P o s t v i l l e
managed a go-
ahead run in the
top of that sev-
enth inning on a
single, a stolen
base and an-
other run-scor-
ing single, and
seemed to have
the Hawks on
the ropes. Kee
senior Jared
Donahue had
something to
say about that,
however, as
he stepped to
the plate with
one out in the
Kee books and
drilled a solo
homerun to tie
the game once
again, ensur-
ing his teams
season, and
his own high
school career,
were not going
to end in that
inning.
The Hawks could not mus-
ter anything further in that
inning, forcing some extra
baseball, and neither team
could manage any offensive
threat in the rst extra inning,
leaving the score knotted at
4-4 through eight complete
frames. Postville nally
scratched a run across in the
top of the ninth inning on two
singles and a double, putting
the Hawks up against the wall
once again in their bottom of
the inning.
Junior Ryan Kuhn began
Kees comeback hopes with
a lead-off walk, being sacri-
ced to second base by senior
Nick Gavin and then advanc-
ing to third on a ground-out
by Donahue. But Kuhn was
left stranded, along with the
Hawks chances of tying the
game or advancing in the
tournament, when Postvilles
rst baseman posted the -
nal out in Kees next at-bat,
sealing the 5-4 Hawk defeat
and an end to their 2014 cam-
paign.
It was senior leadership
that paced Kees offense in
this nal contest of the season,
as 11 of the Hawks 12 hits
in the contest were record-
ed by one of the six seniors
who played their nal game
in a Hawk baseball uniform.
Brennan, Delaney, Gavin and
Manning were each two-for-
four, with Delaney belting a
double and joining Brennan,
Donahue and Manning in
each scoring a run. Donahue
went two-for-ve at the plate,
blasting that solo home run
and joining Brennan in each
driving in one Kee run in the
contest. Chris Carroll round-
ed out the senior hit parade
with a one-for-ve effort,
with Kuhn managing the only
other Kee hit in the contest.
Donahue suffered the
pitching loss, throwing ve
late innings in the contest and
allowing nine hits and two
walks while striking out six
batters. Kuhn tossed the rst
three innings of the ballgame,
allowing four hits and one
walk while striking out three
Pirates. Manning nished off
the games nal frame, allow-
ing no hits and just one walk
while also striking out one.
This was a tough way to
go out, Kee baseball coach
Gene Schultz said of his
teams defeat. We left too
many men on base, and this
was a tough outing for the se-
niors.
First-round pitching win ...
Kee baseball senior Jared Donahue res a pitch to-
ward home plate in the Hawks 7-1 rst-round district
tournament win over Wapsie Valley at Postville Tuesday,
July 15. In addition to picking up the pitching win with
three hits allowed and six strike-outs, Donahue was one-
for-four with a double and two RBI in that opening-round
tournament victory, and was also two-for-ve with a solo
home run and a single in the Hawks 5-4 loss to Postville
in nine innings in the district seminals Thursday, July
17, the nal high school game for Donahue and his ve

Waukon High School well represented at
2014 Shrine Bowl to be played Saturday
Lexie Bieber and Kirsten Mullikin selected to Cheer Squad;
Parker Hesse to play for North Squad in annual football classic
Iowas 15-day annual pheasant survey
scheduled to get underway August 1
Waukon High School will
have a strong representation
for the 2014 Iowa Shrine
Bowl All-Star Football Clas-
sic being played this Saturday,
July 26 at the UNI-Dome in
Cedar Falls. Graduated senior
Parker Hesse will represent
Waukon football as a member
of this years North football
squad, while graduated senior
Lexie Bieber and upcoming
senior Kirsten Mullikin will
represent Waukon cheerlead-
ing as members of the North
cheerleading squad as well.
The Iowa Shrine Bowl
Game is an all-star foot-
ball game between selected
pre-college football athletes
residing on either side of
a north-south dividing line
in Iowa. In addition to the
football game, the players,
cheerleaders, coaches and
managers experience a week
lled with various activities,
culminating in a visit to the
Shriners Hospital in Minne-
apolis, MN Friday, July 25
to see, rst-hand, the facility
and patients that benet from
the fundraising and other pro-
ceeds from the annual Shrine
Bowl event.
An Honors Banquet also
takes place that same Friday
evening, July 25. Saturday,
July 26 will feature a parade
in Cedar Falls at 9:30 a.m.
followed by an autograph ses-
sion. The Shrine Bowl game
is scheduled for a 4 p.m.
Iowas 15-day annual
pheasant population survey is
scheduled to begin August 1,
and wildlife experts say this
year could be a hard one to
predict. A record-setting wet
June that followed a winter
of one polar vortex after an-
other would likely favor a
lower count, but many anec-
start at the UNI-Dome on the
University of Northern Iowa
campus in Cedar Falls.
Football players are se-
lected by a process of nomi-
dotal reports of seeing more
pheasants, quail and rabbits
are coming in from across the
state.
When our pheasants do
best, its after mild winters
with less than 30 inches of
snow followed by a warm,
dry spring nesting season
where we receive less than
nation by coaches, balloting
by statewide sports media
professionals, and ofcial
invitation from a representa-
tive of the Iowa Shrine Bowl.
eight inches of rain, said
Todd Bogenschutz, upland
wildlife biologist with the
Iowa Department of Natural
Resources (DNR) who coor-
dinates and collects the data
from the 208, 30-mile survey
routes.
I dont want to get any
hopes too high, but perhaps
the weather model will be
wrong this year, he said.
Roadside counts should be
interesting.
The 30-mile routes are
driven at sunrise on gravel
roads preferably on morn-
ings with heavy dew and lit-
tle wind. Surveyors watch
for hens moving their broods
to the road edges to dry off
before starting to look for in-
sects.
Surveyors note the number
in the brood, any adult pheas-
ants present and the size of
the chicks, which tells Bo-
genschutz if this was an initial
nest or if the nest was washed
out and this brood was from
a second or even third nest
attempt. Each attempt after
the rst has fewer eggs than
the prior attempt. Surveyors
drive the same routes each
year.
The survey also collects
data on cottontail rabbits,

Scholarships available
for EMT course at VMH
The Auxiliary of Veterans
Memorial Hospital has an-
nounced that it will be offer-
ing two full scholarships for
individuals from the commu-
nity to attend the Emergency
Medical Technician (EMT)
course to beheld this fall at
Veterans Memorial Hospital.
There is a need for more
EMTs in the area so the
hospital Auxiliary, in an ef-
fort to help recruit, will pay
the Northeast Iowa Commu-
nity College (NICC) college
credit fee for two individuals
this upcoming school year.
The course will be taught in
Waukon at Veterans Memo-
rial Hospital two evenings
per week. Some classes are
held at NICC, plus, as part
of the training, some hours
are required at other medical
facilities outside of Veter-
ans Memorial Hospital. The
course will begin in mid-
September and conclude in
April. A written and practical
exam are then required, with
licenses being awarded to all
those with passing grades in
both categories.
Upon completion of the
course and obtaining the
EMT license, these two indi-
viduals will then be hired by
Veterans Memorial Hospital
and will begin taking ambu-
lance calls. EMTs are paid
an hourly salary when they
are on a call, plus an hourly
call time salary is paid
while EMTs are on call and
are within the required ve-
minute response time.
The EMT profession is
suitable for individuals who
have recently become empty
nesters or have taken early
retirements, anyone who is
seeking a rewarding, profes-
sional hobby, or would like
a second job for additional
income.
Applications for these
EMT scholarships are avail-
able at the front desk of Vet-
erans Memorial Hospital, as
well as on the hospitals web-
site at www.veteransmemori-
alhospital.com.
For more information,
please contact Human Re-
sources at Veterans Memorial
Hospital at 563-568-3411.
VMH Auxiliarys annual membership drive underway
VMH Auxiliary ofcers ...
The Auxiliary of Veterans Memorial Hospital is now holding its annual membership
drive. Pictured at left is Jane Butler, former Auxiliary Secretary, inducting the new of-
cers for 2014-2015, from left to right, Nona Sawyer, President; Lillian Larson, Trea-
surer; and Ann Roed, Secretary. Not pictured is Mary Kay Winke, Vice President. The
Auxiliary of Veterans Memorial Hospital is devoted to providing the hospital and its
patients and visitors with many services.
The members of the Aux-
iliary of Veterans Memorial
Hospital are actively recruit-
ing new and returning mem-
bers throughout this month to
join them during their annual
membership drive.
The Auxiliary of Veter-
ans Memorial Hospital is
devoted to providing the
hospital and its patients and
visitors with many services.
The Auxiliary also holds an-
nual fundraisers, such as the
Womens Health Day Lun-
cheon each fall, the Pillow-
Perk in late October, and the
annual membership drive
each July. All the money the
Auxiliary receives goes back
to the hospital for equipment.
The Auxiliary has purchased
numerous items for the hos-
pital, including a new patient
weigh bed, maternity ser-
vices birthing beds, a new
mammography viewbox for
Radiology, two digital cam-
eras, two ice machines, a
chemotherapy chair, blanket
warmers, a NuStep exercise
machine, EKG machine, at
screen TVs for all the patient
rooms, and a new Maternity
Services birthing tub.
The Auxiliary meets the
second Monday of each
month at 1 p.m. in the ICN
Conference Room at Vet-
erans Memorial Hospital.
The Auxiliary also holds a
monthly euchre marathon

Waukon blood donor day August 7 at new location
The next LifeServe Blood
Center blood drive will be
held Thursday, August 7
from 12:30 to 5:30 p.m. at
a new location, First Bap-
tist Church in Waukon (614
Rossville Road).
Blood drives are held
the rst Thursday of every
month in Waukon. The Life-
Serve Blood Center supplies
drink plenty of uids within
four hours of donating.
2. Bring proper identica-
tion, such as a donor card or
a drivers license.
3. Complete a health
history questionnaire and
screening interview.
4. Receive a brief health
check by trained staff. This
includes a check of blood

pint, is collected. This pro-
cess takes around 10 min-
utes.
6. Enjoy refreshments

The blood that is collected
is tested carefully. In fact,
all blood that is collected by
any blood collection is tested
according to federal regula-
tions.
Appointments are encour-
aged and walk-ins can only
be accepted as the schedule
permits. To schedule an ap-
pointment, call the LifeServe
Blood Center at 800-287-
4903.
Q: Are there foods or nu-
trients that can protect my
skin from damage due to
sun exposure?
A: There is no substitute
for protecting yourself from
UV light, which is one of the
most important factors in the
development of both melano-
ma and non-melanoma skin
cancer.
There are a handful of in-
triguing lab studies on how
certain food components
may offer UV protection,
but for now, theres no clear
evidence. Cell and animal
studies, and small human
trials suggest foods rich in
lycopene (tomatoes, water-
melon, papaya, pink or red
grapefruit), as well as dark
green leafy vegetables and
deep orange vegetables and
fruits (including spinach,
kale, broccoli, carrots and
cantaloupe) might help pro-
tect skin with long-term con-
sumption. Laboratory studies
have also shown potential
protection from compounds
in the herb rosemary and
the spice turmeric (which is
part of curry powder), but we
dont have studies in humans
yet to show whether amounts
we get from enjoying them
as seasonings makes a differ-
ence in sun protection. Green
tea contains a compound
called EGCG studied for its
cancer-preventive potential;
researchers are looking at
whether it may offer protec-
tion against UV rays.
Finally, there are some
studies looking at whether
omega-3 fatty acids, found
in some types of sh, might
link to lower risk for skin
cancers. Evidence is not
strong enough to think that
any of these foods provide
protection for your skin.
However, making a variety of
vegetables and fruits a major
part of every meal is a move
already recommended for
lower overall cancer risk, and
sh seems to support heart
health. But nothing replaces
the protection you get from
limiting skin exposure to UV
light (both from sunlight and
from tanning beds) through
limited time in the sun and
by using sunscreen.
Q: Is it true that eating
several small amounts of
food throughout the morn-
ing could rev up my me-
tabolism and help me lose
weight better than eating
one breakfast?
A: Despite how often you
may hear people say that eat-
ing more frequently boosts
metabolic rate and increases
the calories we burn, well-
controlled studies do not
show that eating more often
promotes weight loss. If you
cut your calorie consumption
to the same total, the amount
of weight youll lose does
not seem to change based
on whether you eat those
calories all at once or spread
throughout the morning in
several mini-breakfasts.
Some studies do suggest
that compared to eating your
whole breakfast at once, the
same food choices spread out
over a few hours could offer
some other health benets,
including a smaller rise in
blood sugar and insulin in the
hours after eating.
But the key questions are
which eating pattern best al-
lows you to consistently in-
clude foods that meet your
nutritional needs and support
overall health, and keeps cal-
ories at a level that helps you
reach and maintain a healthy
weight, sustains your energy,
avoids excess hunger and ts
into your lifestyle.
For some people, spread-
ing eating out over the morn-
ing reduces total calorie con-
sumption by avoiding late
morning hunger that could
prompt them to grab candy
or pastries, or to overeat at
lunch. However, for other
people, spreading out their
eating means they are more
likely to quickly grab less-
healthy options, or provides
more occasions to eat por-
tions beyond what is needed
to satisfy hunger, with an end
result of increasing total cal-
orie consumption. Depend-
ing on your habits, either
choice can t with your goal
of weight loss, so choose
whatever breakfast pattern
you can sustain and imple-
ment in a way that supports
your total health.

morial Hospital at 563-568-

Veterans Memorial Hospi-
tal with its blood and blood
products. Here are some in-
teresting blood facts from the
Blood Center of Iowa:
Every three seconds
someone needs blood.
Blood makes up about
eight percent of a persons
body weight.
Blood is needed every
minute of every day, summer,
winter, spring and fall.
Scheduled surgeries are
not cancelled in Iowa be-
cause of a lack of blood, but
it is a problem in other parts
of the nation.
Donating blood includes
a health check for the donor
(checking blood pressure,
pulse, temperature and he-
moglobin) prior to donating.
There is absolutely no
way to contract any disease
from giving blood.
Blood can be split into
different components (red
cells, platelets, plasma, and
cryoprecipitate) and used to
help different types of pa-
tients.
Regular blood donors
may donate blood as often
as every 56 days. First-time
donors will nd that donat-
ing blood is a safe and easy
way to save lives and make a
difference in the community.
A single blood donation can
save the lives of up to three
sick or injured hospital pa-
tients.
The donation process is
simple:

Compassion fatigue is a term that is often applied to people who work in the helping professions, such as doctors, nurses, teachers, and social workers, and refers to the gradual decrease of compassion
which these people sometimes feel in response to others suffering. It may be that after seeing so much suffering we become desensitized to it. Indeed, there is some evidence that everyone may be
prone to compassion fatigue through the medias portrayal of suffering people. Hearing everyday about Syrian refugees or the homeless in America may make us less likely to respond compassionately
than if we were hearing about these unfortunate souls less often. People who are experiencing high levels of stress and who have inadequate support networks are more likely to experience compassion
fatigue, perhaps because they feel that no one is helping them with their problems and they feel like they have nothing left in their bucket to share. Since compassion is one of the essential callings
of the faithful, we should do our best to prevent compassion fatigue by managing our own levels of stress and by ensuring that we have a good support network in place. And, we should remember that
God is always there to back us up. - Christopher Simon I cannot carry all these people by myself; the burden is too heavy for me. 1 Corinthians 12:13

information about the intersection
and options to make it safer with-
out making it a 4-way stop: solar

ty funds for ashing beacons and
if approved, they will put them up.
In addition he will look at existing
signage and make sure the focus
is on regulatory signs, as well as
adding stop bars and a median

Letter to the Editor
... that I hear evidence of
global cooling. It was only
in the low 40s in northern
Minnesota this morning,
and forecasters were saying
northeast Iowa might set cold
temperature records tomor-
row morning.
July is our warmest month,
records show, and mid-July
the warmest period normally.
Last weeks reports of a
typhoon, named Neogurt, I
think, heading for Japan, re-
minded me of bad weather
experiences while in the Pa-
cific with the Navy. The air-
craft carrier on which I was
a passenger appeared headed
for Typhoon Judy, but the
captain said everything was
under control, and we would
be changing course to avoid
Judy. But Judy changed
course, and so the carrier did,
too. Again. However, Judy
(just like a woman!) still
had another course change
in mind, and it was too late
to take evasive action, so we
were caught much too close
to Judy for comfort. Liter-
ally! We tied the ends of the
sheets on our bunks to the
frame, to keep us from el-
evating in the wave action.
And we were taking white
water over the bow of the
carrier, something I had only
seen happen to destroyers or
destroyer escorts previously.
We had off-loaded one
of our aircraft squadrons on
Guam because of a recall to
fix some problem with the
planes, and those guys took
a direct hit from the storm.
While we had envied them
for an apparent on-shore va-
cation before, we no longer
did. When they flew back
aboard, we asked what it was
like. They said they had a slo-
gan: Maug Si Doog, which
is Guam is good spelled
backwards.
The comment from an
American living on Okinawa
this summer was, Were
okay. We are from Iowa,
where we have tornadoes!
Speaking of unfavorable
conditions, I was shocked
but not surprised to hear our
petulant president come a bit
unglued over criticism from
some members of the nation-
al press, who had been in his
camp since day one. It was
no surprise that he drew on a
song from Guys and Dolls
when he invited Republicans
to sue him. But it was new to
see him flare back at reporters
who had been backing him
for about the last ten years.
I have criticized, and do
criticize, the president for
some of his actions during
campaigns and when in of-
fice, but in fairness I also
suspect that some of the
way he has handled things
is due to lack of experience.
He was only on the national
scene with any consequence
from spring to fall election
in 2004, and previously had
done nothing to prompt na-
tional interest. The national
honeymoon continued for his
first term, and only now, part
way through term two, is the
press having some doubts.
And then I wrote ...

Lawn mower and swal-

The day after I reported
swallows following my rid-
ing lawn mower around my
property, I took a morning
walk in city park. The park
crew, which does an excellent
job, by the way, had a bunch
of big mowers out in all sec-
tions of the park, and each
had its convoy of swallows
looking for insects stirred up
by the mowing.
Part trios. This morning,
no swallows around the mow-
ers in the park. So, should be
safe to walk around my home
garden, I thought. Wrong!
Mosquitoes were thick.
Wheres a swallow when a
guy needs one?

Not long ago, I had an in-
teresting telephone conversa-

state concerning what he
thought was a physical ab-
normality. This may seem
strange to call such a con-
versation interesting, but
Im a licensed professional
counselor and disability
columnist, so these types of
conversations often nd me.
The gentleman had a so-
called abnormality involving
his feet and was worrying
others eventually would see
it even though, to this colum-
nist, nothing about his feet
seemed abnormal. He ex-
plained there wasnt hardly
any space between his big

Normal physical differ-
ences like these concern
many Americans. For in-
stance, Ive seen many
people become emotionally

others.

To the Editor:
In last weeks Standard
there was a public notice for
the Allamakee Board of Su-
pervisors approving Resolu-
tion #14.283 which was the
Resolution for the Destruc-
tion of Noxious Weeds. I
agree that it should be land
owners responsibility to con-
trol or eliminate the noxious
weeds on their land and my
wife and I do a credible job
of it on our land. What sort of
ne will the Supervisors im-
pose on the State and County
Highway Departments for
not controlling the noxious
weeds in their ditches which
causes them to spread to our
land?
Everywhere you look there
are thistles of huge propor-
tions in full bloom in the
ditches and as of today (July
14) no attempts have been
made by either department to
mow or spray them. It seems
to me that some sort of push
should be made to control
these so they dont continue
to spread into our land.

latter could include acne,
thinning hair or wrinkles.)
Its called body dysmorphic
disorder.
It shouldnt surprise any-
one that some Americans
become consumed by how
others perceive their appear-
ance because, for decades,
weve all been bombarded by
millions of television, radio,
newspaper, and internet ads
aggressively instructing us in
how to smell, look, feel and
interact.
Likewise, it shouldnt sur-
prise anyone when a person
with a disability also be-
comes concerned about his
appearance, especially con-
sidering his concern usually
isnt over relatively minor or
imaginary issues, but some-
times over a disability that
could be drawing unwanted
attention.
Like everyone else, peo-
ple with disabilities over
the years have absorbed the
same TV and radio com-
mercials that promote some
manufacturers skewed ide-
al. They have seen the same
Barbie dolls.
As a result, a woman with
a disability, while in public,
may excessively worry over
how others perceive the way
she talks, walks, reads, eats
or does other activities. Its
one more thing she may feel
a need to worry over when
out, along with, possibly,
accessibility issues and any
common physical concerns
such as hair color, height,
and wrinkles.

To the Editor:
On August 5, polls in Al-
lamakee County will be open
from noon until 8 p.m. for the
Local Option Sales and Ser-
vices Tax continuation vote.
The Local Option Sales and
Services Tax (LOSST) has
been a vital and essential
contributor to the well-being
of our local communities and
rural areas since 1997. This
1% sales tax is collected on
sales made in Allamakee
County, and all money col-
lected stays here in Allama-
kee County. It is distributed to
the Secondary Roads Depart-
ment, Rural Services (such
as garbage collection sites),
and Rural Townships. Rural
Townships have several com-
mitments that they use these
funds for, including re/am-
bulance protection, cemetery
maintenance, and library sup-
port. These services, which
we all enjoy and benet from,
rely on the LOSST funds.
Please vote YES on August
5. As a lifelong resident of Al-
lamakee County, I ask that we
all work together to keep this
great corner of our state safe,
beautiful, and prosperous for
the generations that follow.
Please do your part, shop lo-
cally, and support the LOSST
Vote on August 5. If you have
any questions, please call me
at 563-568-4754.

a parcel (tract), transferred
in a farm or transferred out a
farm/tract of the county and/
or other situations not men-
tioned here.

ly 2102 farms in Allamakee
County. This step will allow
owners to update or retain the
current base and yields. Bases
will not be increased, but can
be reallocated. There will be
more information to come on
this rst step.

tact the Allamakee County

land owners, tenants, or other
interested individuals have
about farmland leasing.
Locations include:
Calmar at 9 a.m. August 6;
Dyersville at 9 a.m. and
Farmland leasing meetings in northeast Iowa
1:30 p.m. August 12;
Fayette at 9 a.m. August

Attendees will gain under-
standing of current cash rental
rate surveys and factors driv-
ing next years rents such as
market trends and input costs.
They will learn about types of
leases and results of farmland
value surveys. Additionally,
information on 2012 Census,
Farm Bill, CSR2, and Nutri-
ent Reduction Strategy will
be presented. A 100-page
workbook will be included
with registration that includes
land leasing information such
as surveys, sample written

tion forms, and many other
publications.
Due to changes in com-
modity markets, cash rent
values, and government pro-
grams farmland owners and
tenants may have more deci-
sions over the next year than
in previous years, and this
meeting provides information
to stay up to date on farmland
lease issues, says Kristen

ed that they need to properly
terminate their leases. Writ-
ten notice of termination may
be delivered personally with
the tenant signing to show ac-
knowledgement of the termi-
nation. The written notice can
also be mailed before Sep-
tember 1 by certied mail.
The Iowa State Bar Associa-
tion has a form called Notice
of Termination of Farm Ten-
ancy that is available on the
ISU Extension website or the
Allamakee SWCD website.
The Allamakee SWCD is
encouraging farm landown-
ers to revise their conserva-
tion plans and attach them to
their farm leases. Many plans
havent been updated since
the mid to late 1990s. Often
renters want the plan to be
written to the minimum that
they have to do to still be in
compliance so they can con-
tinue to receive their program
payments. In most cases,
there is much more that could
be done on highly erodible
ground to protect the land.
Landowners have the right
to state how they want to land
to be managed and the re-
sponsibility to protect it from
eroding. By attaching the con-
servation plan and plan map
to the farm lease, it becomes
part of the lease contract.
This helps the landowner
ensure that the plan is being
followed. The landowner and
renter become more aware
of what is written in the plan
and can see if it needs to be
updated as crop rotations and
tillage practices change. It
can be especially benecial
to include the plan map in the
lease documents because it
clearly shows where specic
practices should be installed
and maintained.
In order to change farm
leases to include the conser-
vation plan (if they do not al-
ready) they need to be termi-
nated by September 1. New
leases have to be signed by
March 1.
The Allamakee SWCD
currently has a project to help
landowners include conserva-
tion in their farm leases by
updating their conservation
plans and discussing addi-
tional conservation provi-
sions. For more information
about this project and how
to include conservation in
a farm lease, contact Sara
Berges at the Allamakee
County SWCD at 563-568-
2246 ext. 3, sara.berges@
ia.nacdnet.net, or stop by the

Iowa Secretary of Agricul-
ture Bill Northey announced
recently that $1.4 million in
cost share funds are available
to help farmers install new
nutrient reduction practices.
The practices eligible for this
funding are cover crops, no-
till or strip till, or using a ni-
trication inhibitor when ap-
plying fertilizer.
We continue to hear from
farmers interested in doing
even more to limit nutrient
loss and better protect water
quality and these funds will
help them try new voluntary
science-based conserva-
tion practices on their farm,
Northey said. We were ex-
tremely pleased by the re-
sponse last year from farmers
and are excited to have funds
available again this year.
The cost share rate for
farmers planting cover crops
is $25 per acre and for farm-
ers trying no-till or strip till is
$10 per acre. Farmers using a
nitrapyrin nitrication inhibi-
tor when applying fall fertil-
izer can receive $3 per acre.
Any farmer not already
utilizing these practices can
apply for this assistance.
Farmers are only eligible for
cost share on up to 160 acres.
Funds were made available
Thursday, July 17, but farm-
ers can immediately start sub-
mitting applications through
their local Soil and Water
Conservation District ofce.
Farmers that have already
used these practices on their
farm and are ineligible for
this funding are still encour-
aged to visit their local Soil
and Water Conservation Dis-
trict ofce to discuss other
cost share funding that may
be available.
By allowing farmers to
try new practices on a limited
number of acres at a reduced

cost we want to showcase the
benets of these practices
and encourage farmers to in-
corporate them into their op-
eration, Northey said.
The Iowa Department of
Agriculture and Land Stew-
ardship received $4.4 million
for the Iowa Water Quality
Initiative in scal year 2015.
These funds will allow the

Safety tips to help agricultural workers beat the heat this summer
Summer temperatures
that are cooler than normal
have been a welcome change
across much of the Midwest
this year, but the dog days
of summer will be back.
When temperature and rela-
tive humidity levels climb, it
is important for workers and
employers to prevent heat ill-
ness. Heat illness can begin
suddenly and includes condi-
tions ranging from heat rash
and heat cramps to heat ex-
haustion and life-threatening
heatstroke.
through evaporation of sweat
from the skin. Workers should
take precautions to prevent
heat illness when the Heat In-
dex reaches 91F and above.
Dehydration, which
limits the bodys ability to
regulate temperature through
sweating. Drinking alcohol,
caffeine, and sugary bever-
ages can contribute to dehy-
dration.
Wearing clothing that
doesnt allow sweat to evap-
orate. Too many clothes or
clothing that is tight or dark
colored can prevent cooling
through sweating. Chemical
protective clothing that pro-
tects the skin from harmful
substances can also hold in
the heat and prevent evapora-
tive cooling through sweat-
ing.
Low uid intake that
doesnt make up for liquids
lost through sweating.
Heavy physical labor or
exertion.
No recent exposure to hot
workplaces.
Working in direct sun-
light.
Working in enclosed areas
with no air movement where
the heat index inside can ex-
ceed that outdoors (e.g., grain
bins, hay mows).
Know the signs and symp-
toms and how to treat them
Heat exhaustion is a condi-
tion that results from expo-
sure to high temperature or
high heat index conditions.
Symptoms of heat exhaus-
tion include heavy sweating,
headache, nausea, dizziness,
weakness, fatigue, weak
rapid pulse, muscle cramps
(heat cramps), dark-colored
urine, and cool damp skin
with goose bumps. If left un-
treated, heat exhaustion can
lead to heatstroke.
If you or a coworker expe-
rience symptoms of heat ex-
haustion, get the person to a
shady or air-conditioned area.
Have them lie down with their
legs elevated and loosen the
clothing. Provide cool uids
(not alcohol or caffeine) and
moisten their skin with cool
wet cloths, water spray, or
a cool bath or shower. Seek
medical attention if symp-
toms last longer than one
hour or if the person has heart
problems or high blood pres-
sure.
Heatstroke (sometimes
called sunstroke) is a life-
threatening condition that
requires emergency medical
treatment to prevent damage
to the brain and internal or-
gans. Heatstroke can develop
within 10 to 15 minutes when
body temperature reaches
104F or higher. The main
indicators of heatstroke are
elevated body temperature
and changes in mental state,
such as confusion, personal-
ity changes, or coma. Other
symptoms may include rapid
pulse, dizziness, fainting,
nausea, throbbing headache,
irritability, seizures, elevated
or low blood pressure, and
rapid shallow breathing. Skin
may be hot and dry due to ces-
sation of sweating, or damp,
especially after exertion.
Heatstroke can be fatal! If
you see someone with signs
of heatstroke, call 911 and
move them to a shaded or air-
conditioned area. Cool the
person by soaking their cloth-
ing in cool water, applying
dampened cloths to the skin,
or spraying them with cool
water. Provide sips of cool
water or sport drinks but
only if they are able to swal-
low without difculty - until
emergency responders arrive.
Plan ahead to prevent heat
illness
Heat illness is preventable
by following these steps:
Check with your doctor
to determine if you are taking
medications that may make
you more susceptible to heat
illness.
Acclimate to hot condi-
tions over several days, grad-
ually increasing the amount
of time working in the heat.
Re-acclimation is necessary
after being away from work-
ing in the heat for several
days.
Wear loose-tting cloth-
ing that is lightweight and
light in color. Loose-tting
lightweight clothing helps
sweat evaporate to cool the
body. Light-colored clothing
does not hold in the heat as
much as dark-colored cloth-
ing.
Protect yourself from
sunburn. Wear hats with wide
brims and use sunscreen on
exposed skin.
Schedule work for early
morning or evening hours,
when possible.
Stay hydrated. Start
drinking cool uids before
working and continue to
drink regularly, up to several
times an hour, even before
you experience thirst. Drink-
ing about a quart of water or
sports drink every hour will
help your body sweat and
regulate temperature. Avoid
alcoholic beverages.
Take frequent breaks in
the shade or air-conditioned
areas. Make a point to drink
plenty of uids during your
breaks.
Work with a partner or
buddy and monitor each-oth-
ers condition. Confusion and
disorientation are symptom of
heat illness that may prevent
someone from recognizing
they are at risk. Monitor your
coworkers and employees for
signs of heat illness. Remind
coworkers to drink frequently
and take breaks. Report any
symptoms early.
Use the free Heat Safety
Tool App for smartphones to
calculate Heat Index risk and
determine protective mea-
sures to prevent illness.

preventing heat illness, con-

ter for Agricultural Health

ity practices through state-
wide cost share assistance.
Last year in just two weeks
over 1,000 farmers signed up
for cost share funding to help
implement new nutrient re-
duction practices on 100,000
acres. The state provided $2.8
million in cost share funding
to help farmers try a water
quality practice for the rst
time and Iowa farmers pro-
vided at least another $2.8
million to support these water
quality practices.

Dry faster.

The new Kubota TE Series
Tedder is designed to dry hay
faster. With four rotors and
wide overlap, hay is completely
lifted and distributed evenly
over the entire working area.
Anyone who engages in
strenuous physical activity
during summer months when
temperature and humidity
levels produce high heat indi-
ces is at risk for heat illness.
Those who have not accli-
mated to working in the heat
or who have returned to work
after being away from it for a
week or more are at greater
risk of developing heat ill-
ness. Workers in agriculture,
construction, trades, utilities,
landscaping and building
and grounds maintenance are
among those at most affected
by heat illness.
What circumstances lead to
heat illness?
High temperature and hu-
midity, or Heat Index.
The Heat Index, some-
times referred to as the appar-
ent temperature, is a measure
of how hot it feels when rela-
tive humidity is factored in
with the ambient air tempera-
ture. The higher the relative
humidity, the less easily the
body can cool itself naturally

The following excerpts
were published in the Lan-
sing papers 75 and 60 years
ago.

75 Years Ago
July 26, 1939

All Quiet On Tavern Fronts
Law and order prevailed in
Waukon Saturday night to a
marked degree, due to more
vigilance on the part of of-
cers than has been exercised
heretofore; consequently the
maudlin spirit was absent.
A number of citizens re-
sponded to a request from
an ofcial source to do some
observing, which also had its
quieting effect, and especially
when a well known woman
walked into some of the tav-
erns to note the presence of
the younger class. Said she
did it on her own accord and
reports there is well need of
law observance in Waukon
in compliance with the reso-
lutions adopted recently by
the church and club organiza-
tions and led with the city
council.

Waukon Youth Of 15 Years
Is Marvelous Golf Player
Roger Martin, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Willard Martin, is
showing such a remarkable
stride as a golf player while
only 15 years of age, that it is
predicted he is bound to be-
come more marvelous a play-
er as he grows into manhood.
He is now the champion
of the Waukon links, having
scored a 32 on the nine hole
course one day last week,
which is three below par. At
13 years of age he parred the
course and does it readily
now while playing from day
to day in which he takes con-
stant pleasure.
What is still more remark-
able Roger has but one eye,
having lost the right one when
a little fellow by the burst-
ing of a cannon re cracker
that tore a tin can to pieces,
a particle of which caused the
grievous injury. But his mar-
velous record shows that the
loss of his eye is no handicap
to him while playing golf.

Harpers Ferry
The baseball game here
Sunday between Spillville
and the locals was a very
good game. The game went
into the last half of the 9th
tied 3 and 3. Harpers put over
a run in their half which made
them the winners 4 to 3. Spill-
ville has a very good team
and a very agreeable bunch
of players. Gabrielson of La
Crosse was on the mound for
the Hawks and pitched very
good. The Hawks had several
of the regular players out. St.
Lucas plays here next Sun-
day, and should be a real good
game. St. Lucas has one of
the best teams in the league.
Bob Fitzke who is pitching
for Davenport, will be on
the mound for the locals. He
pitched seven innings against
Decorah here a few weeks
ago, allowing but two hits and
no runs. Recently he let Mus-
catine down with four hits,
shutting them out. He has
pitched for a number of ma-
jor league teams and last year
was coach at the Dubuque U.

Waterville
A reunion of the Ole Plad-
son family was held Sunday
at the Green Valley Pavilion
in honor of Mrs. Randina
Siam, now of Storm Lake,
Iowa, with relatives from
Waukon and other points be-
ing in attendance. A picnic
dinner was served and all en-
joyed a pleasant day.

English Bench
George Dresselhaus was
the victim of an accident one
day last week while stacking
grain. The team ran away and
he was thrown off a load of
bundles, fracturing his leg
just above the ankle.

New Albin News
Mr. and Mrs. John Fish of
Dubuque, and Mrs. Carrie
Cooper of Lansing, visited
a couple of days last week
at the G.H. Rippe home. On
Wednesday Mr. and Mrs.
Rippe accompanied them to
Deadwood, S.D., where they
are visiting the latters daugh-
ter, Mrs. George Bjorklund
and family.
Waukon Briefs
An auto containing ve or
six occupants, some of them
young folks from Waukon,
left the highway on a sharp
turn on the Volney hill last
Friday evening, and rolled
over four times it is reported.
Miraculously all escaped
injuries except some minor
bruises and scratches. A Mr.
Hedstrom, temporarily em-
ployed here by the Western
Electric Co., was the owner
of the Buick car which had to
be hauled in for repairs.
Looking Backward
July 24, 1904
Raspberries selling at a
shilling a quart. At Hawkeye
an attempt was made to burn
the home of Rev. Kester, for-
mer New Albin minister, but
fortunately he discovered the
re in time and escaped with
his family from an upstairs
window in a ladder. Waukon
and Lansing, hot rivals in
base ball, were quarreling and
forfeiting games to each oth-
er. (Now neither town has a
team to ght about.) Calhoun
Creamery made 42,200 lbs.
of butter during the month
of June. Waterville cream-
ery turned out 36,486 lbs. of
butter in Juneone weeks
record being 8,803 lbs., and
the highest days production
being 2,219 lbs.

Looking Backward
July 29, 1914
Newspapers are full
of news of the impend-
ing threat of a great World
Warsoon to break out. Leo
Hufschmidts launch Lady
May was run down by Will
Ruprechts Rupe and sank
opposite the depot. Willard
Carter sold his clothes clean-
ing business in Waukon to
Harry Nesheim. Fred Herman
bought the Halver Simonsen
house for $1800.

60 Years Ago
July 28, 1954

Lansing Locals
Dr. Edward Purdy Ney of
the University of Minnesota
had one of his cosmic ray re-
search balloons land on the
Ernest McKee place Thurs-
day. As it is just west of Oak
Hill Cemetery many from
town drove out to see the
scientic equipment much
of which was all recovered
and returned. His father, Otto
Ney, showed us some of the
parts which is property of the
school and U. S. Navy and
recorded for statistical pur-
poses.

Father Edward Lechten-
berg of the Cathedral Par-
ish in Dubuque drove up for
Fish Day bringing two young
friends, James Rittenmeier
and Lawrence Strohmeyer
along with him to enjoy the
day. Dr. Joe Lechtenberg and
lady friend of Maquoketa also
drove up to spend Fish Day
with his Lansing relatives.

Mr. Paul Glynn and 12
year old triplet sons, Tom,
Tim and Terry of Prairie du
Chien, drove up Friday and
visited Lansing friends over
night the Leo Unterberger and
other families. They made a
mistake and intended to be
here for Fish Day and cheer
for the famous water skiers of
their little city but found out
they came a day too late. Mr.
Glynn is assistant cashier of
the Campion Academy.
Waukon Briefs
The Willard Cunningham
family enjoyed a visit the past
week from his daughter, Mrs.
Paul Schuster and family of
Omaha, Neb., who are on va-
cation and who are spending
this week with Mr. Schusters
relatives in Dubuque. Mr.
Cunningham and daughter,
Miss Helen, enjoyed a few
days visit with the Schuster
family and also with another
daughter and husband, Major
E.V. Cameron and daugh-
ter, at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan.
There they experienced 111

was not too comfortable.
