Restoration of Franklin #8 school to be featured at open house this Saturday
Former students, general public invited to share history and their own stories about the school
by Kelli Boylen
freelance writer
The sunlight streams in
through the tall windows and
the wooden oor gleams. The
desks are in rows, some with
the markings of students be-
fore. The rope connected to
the bell hangs down near the
blackboard, ready to sum-
mon.
The schoolhouse known
as Franklin #8 appears to
be ready for the rst day of
school.
Instead, Postville native
Dan White hopes that it will
soon be lled with stories
of the past 150-plus years.
White recently completed
years of restoration to the old
schoolhouse, and he will be
hosting an open house for it
this Saturday, August 16 from
1 to 5 p.m.
We dont have a lot of
records or detailed informa-
tion, White says. We are
really hoping to learn more
from people if they read this
article and come to the open
house.
Franklin #8, also known
as the White School (like-
ly because of the number of
students with that last name),
was located next to the For-
est Mills Church along For-
est Mills Road from the time
it was built about 1890 until
eight years ago.
Students learned to read,
write and do arithmetic in
that building until 1960. Once
Franklin #8 closed in favor of
larger consolidated schools,
the structure went to Vernis
Engelhardt, who owned the
land that surrounded it.
Engelhardt used the build-
ing as a granary until the oor
gave way. At that point he
removed the oor and about
half of one wall, and put in
a sliding door. White recalls
Engelhardt storing machinery
in the old schoolhouse in the
early 1970s.
Engelhardt passed away in
the mid-1990s and the build-
ing fell into further disrepair.
The foundation started to
give way, and the shifts in the
building caused the glass in
the windows to break.
The building was near-
ing the point of no return. I
couldnt handle watching the
school my dad went to falling
down, White says.
White approached Engel-
hardts children about eight
years ago and asked to buy
the building. They agreed. He
moved the building to his par-
Allamakee County
voters approve
renewal of Local
Option Sales and
Service Tax
Renewal of the Local Option Sales and Service Tax (LOSST) was approved by Allamakee
County voters in a special election held Tuesday, August 5 in the cities of Waukon,
Waterville, Postville, Harpers Ferry and New Albin, as well as in the unincorporated areas
of those communities, all polling sites reporting that approval by wide margins.
Voters in all of those jurisdictions approved a ten-year renewal of the tax, with the
exception of Harpers Ferry, where voters approved renewal of the tax with no "sunset date."
Unofcial results (yet to be canvassed by the Allamakee County Board of Supervisors)
provided by the Allamakee County Auditor's Ofce show the following vote totals ("Yes"
votes-"No" votes):
City of Waukon, 220-28; Waterville, 17-0; Postville, 48-3; Harpers Ferry, 27-0; New
Albin, 20-2; Unincorporated, 221-23. That Unincorporated total includes the following
township totals:
Hanover/Waterloo, 15-1; Iowa/Union City, 17-1; French Creek/Jefferson/Ludlow/
Makee/Union Prairie, 82-9; Center/Lafayette/Lansing, 18-5; Fairview/Taylor, 21-1; Linton/
Paint Creek, 27-3; Franklin/Post, 9-2; Absentees, 32-1.
The City of Lansing has no "sunset date" on the one-percent sales and service tax, so no
election was held there.
Allamakee County
Recorder's Ofce warns
against deed notice letter
The Allamakee County Recorder's Ofce is advising
area residents that a company named Record Transfer
Services is sending letters out to people in Allamakee
County who may have recently purchased property. The
letter states "Recorded Deed Notice", lists the property
owner's parcel number and county, and shows an amount
due of $83.00. The notice looks very ofcial; it has the
date of when a deed was recorded and information about
the property listed, along with a recommendation that
all homeowners should obtain a copy of their deed and a
property assessment prole, a service they will provide for
that fee of $83.00.
"You do not owe them $83," warns Allamakee County
Recorder Deb Winke. "This is an outrageous amount and
homeowners who are concerned about recording activity
can always get a copy of their deed through the Allamakee
County Recorders Ofce for just 50 cents a page or free
through Iowa Land Records, the Iowa County Recorders
statewide website. The property assessment is information
taken from the Allamakee Countys GIS website for free."
Winke advises that these letters, and the property
information on them, are not coming from her ofce or
any other Allamakee County ofce. Those with further
concerns may call Allamakee County Recorder Deb Winke
at 563-568-2364.
ents farmstead (Lee and Ruth
White) a mile south of the
church about four years ago.
White, a carpenter, says,
I knew it was structurally
sound; that what was here
was sturdy. It needed a huge
amount of work, but I knew
what I was getting myself
into.
Since all the restoration
work was paid for out of his
own pocket, White some-
times had to step back from
his labor of love and wait un-
til he saved up to do more.
He started restoring the
structure about two years
Open house Saturday for Franklin #8 ...
Postville native Dan White has worked over the last two
years to restore the former Franklin #8 school (pictured
above) that used to be located next to the Forest Mills
Church in rural Postville. Restoration work on the exterior of
the structure included rebuilding the porch and recreating
the bell tower from scratch, as evident in the photo above.
Restoration of the interior of the school (photo at right) also
included furnishing the building with desks, as if waiting for
the rst students of the fall term. White is hosting an open
house for the school this Saturday, August 16 in hopes of
gathering further history about the building where his father
once went to school. Photos by Kelli Boylen.
ago. He was able to use his
carpentry skills to do almost
all of the work himself. He
had to have three windows
custom made, had someone
else lay the foundation, and
he hired the masonry work
for the chimney done; the rest
he completed himself.
When asked how many
hours he spent working on the
schoolhouse, he was not able
to even guess. Countless,
he says.
At the time he purchased
the building he was living in
Michigan with his wife and
two daughters. Whenever he
could, he would drive to Iowa
to work on it. When they
moved to the area around Au-
gust of 2008 the project be-
came more accessible.
White put a lot of thought
into his project. For example,
the lumber he used for the
support beams and oor joists
came from logs that were cut
down more than 100 years
ago, but had sunk to the bot-
tom of the Little Muskegon
River in Michigan. Dan har-
vested the logs out of the river
Supervisors meet in regular session
by Bob Beach
During public comment
time at the regular meeting of
the Allamakee County Board
of Supervisors Tuesday,
August 5, Betty Larsen
of Waukon addressed the
Board regarding the reported
shortage of mental health
beds and the closed Makee
Manor facility. Larsen said
that Sheriff Clark Mellick's
suggestion that mental
health facilities be included
in plans for a new public
safety center reminded her
of Bob and Kristi Hager's
offer to purchase Makee
Manor and staff the facility
with volunteers. She said that
option seemed much more
economical to her and asked
the Board to reconsider the
Hagers' offer.
Chairman Larry
Schellhammer said that
the type of mental health
facility that the Sheriff was
suggesting for the new public
safety center would be much
different than what the Hagers
had proposed. He said that
Makee Manor is no longer for
sale but that an auction of the
contents is being planned.
Supervisor Sherry Strub
said that while she supports
the Hagers' vision of a
privately funded, volunteer-
run facility, she believes
Makee Manor is too large to
be used to fulll that vision.
During regular business,
County Attorney Jill Kistler
presented the Board with
notices of termination of
the farm leases with Ed and
George Bieber and Brian
Stortz for land at the County
Farm. Kistler told the Board
that both leases are due to
expire but that notices of
termination must be served
prior to September 1 in order
to prevent automatic renewal
of the leases. The Board
approved the notices and
agreed to have them delivered
by certied mail.
The Board also met with
County Engineer Brian
Ridenour for the opening of
bids for 16,200 gallons of
LP gas for various County
departments. Fauser Energy
Resources submitted the low
bid of $1.398 per gallon.
Ridenour told the Board
that Fauser is the County's
current supplier and that
they have provided good
service. The Board voted
to accept Fauser's bid on
Ridenour's recommendation.
Also submitting bids were
AgVantage FS ($1.45 per
gallon), Waukon Feed Ranch
($1.45 per gallon) and Welch,
Inc. ($1.58 per gallon).
In other business, the
Board promoted John Roe to
Head Custodian at an annual
salary of $29,500 and agreed
to pay the cost of obtaining
the proper boiler operator
certication. The Board also
approved the year-end report
from Allamakee Substance
Abuse Prevention.
Lansing Fish Days 2014 enjoys success ...

Recent random alcohol compliance checks
result in 100% compliance
Having a liquor license
is very similar to having a
driver's license. The license is
a privilege and responsibility
to the holder. There are laws
and rules to follow in order
to keep the license or to keep
from receiving nes.
Just as there are patrol cars
out on our highways to check
to make sure drivers are
obeying the laws relating to
having a driver's license, there
are ways to check to make
sure liquor establishments
are obeying the laws to
having a liquor license. One
of the biggest mistakes liquor
license holders can make is
to sell alcohol to underage
buyers.
One way to check for
this is through the use of
a compliance check. The
compliance check is a well-
designed strategy to check
liquor establishments'
policies regarding selling
alcohol.
During a compliance
check, an underage buyer is
sent into the establishment to
purchase alcohol while law
enforcement waits outside.
The buyer is dressed age
appropriate and LOOKS
underage. The underage
buyer attempts to purchase
alcohol and, if asked, is
told to answer any and all
questions truthfully.
Recently, the Allamakee
County Sheriff's Department
conducted a round of
compliance checks
throughout Allamakee
County. The Allamakee
and Allamakee Substance
Abuse Prevention (SPF
SIG) are pleased to
announce that 100% of the
14 random establishments
recently checked passed
the compliance check. This
The
POWER
o
Prevention
means that the underage
buyer was refused the sale in
all 14 establishments.
This high rate of
compliance shows that these
businesses acted responsibly
in the hiring, training and
supervising of their staff
with regard to the laws and
ordinances regulating the sale
of alcohol.
Allamakee Substance
Abuse Prevention SPF
SIG and the Allamakee
appreciate the work these
businesses have put into
this essential part of their
business. These responsible
alcohol sales businesses
are a respected part of
Allamakee County's business
community, and their efforts
to help us keep alcohol out of
the hands of our youth are to
be applauded.
Allamakee Substance
Abuse Prevention SPF SIG
and the Allamakee County
Sheriff's Department will be
working together in the future
to continue these alcohol
compliance checks.
Allamakee County
Substance Abuse Prevention
SPF SIGs project is funded
by the Iowa Department
of Public Health, through
the Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services
Administration (SAMHSA)
of the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services.

Thursday, October 30 -
Pots, People & Ideas: Up-
per Mississippi Missionar-
ies at 1,000 AD
Thursday, October 30, the
Allamakee County Historical
Society will be hosting a pre-
sentation by Danielle Benden
and Robert Ernie Boszhardt
that is entitled "Pots, People
& Ideas: Upper Mississippi
Missionaries at 1,000 AD".
Around 1,000 years ago,
people from an American
Indian cultural group known
as Mississipians made a 500-
mile journey up the Missis-
sippi river from an ancient
city near St. Louis known as
Cahokia, eventually nding
a home in Trempealeau, WI.
They settled, and then within
a short period of time, they
disappeared. Benden is the
curator of Anthropology at
the University of Wiscon-
sin-Madison and Boszhardt
is an instructor at the Center
for Wisconsin Archaeology
at the University of Wiscon-
sin-Baraboo-Sauk County.
The program is at 7:30
p.m. at the Kerndt Brothers
Savings Bank Community
Room, which is located at
370 Main Street in Lansing.
On June 25, at 4:00 AM, we received a call no
one ever wants - the Waukon Fire Department was at
Howards Home Furnishings - fre in progress. Arriving
at the scene, it was not one of chaos, but well under
control. The Waukon Police & Fire Department had
successfully evacuated our tenants safely, partnered
with both the gas and electric companies to shut off
services, and also a call for the Waterville and Decorah
Fire Departments for additional assistance. The Red
Cross was represented and already offering help.
To see our local Fire Department in action, and
putting the fre out so quickly, was truly a wonderful
sight. And it all came down to training, experience,
and the best of equipment - this is what allows them
to do their jobs safely and effectively, and to be there
for you, your loved ones - whether your home or
business. This fre had the potential to take the whole
city block but it didnt, because of the teamwork of
our Fire and Police Departments. And thank goodness
- can you even imagine Waukon, IA without Howards
Home Furnishings, Main Feature Theatre, Micah
Lynn Photography, Krambeers Barber Shop, Evans
Sporting Goods or Waukon State Bank? Certainly
something to consider when the Annual Firemans
Ball rolls around or as Waukon is building a new Fire
Station.
A sincere Thank You to the Waukon Fire
Department, the Waukon Police Department, and all
those involved in every act of kindness shown to us.
Your offers of help, food, and overall concern made
us, once again, grateful to be a part of this community
and to call Waukon home.

Taking a dog for a walk is
now not only good for a per-
son's health and their dog, it
can now raise money to sup-
port all pets at local animal
shelters. The "Take your Walk
for a Dog" program is a revolu-
tionary dog-powered fundrais-
ing tool for animal shelters that
uses a free mobile App to pro-
mote healthy pets and healthy
humans while raising money
to support local shelters.
The Humane Society of
Northeast Iowa (HSNEI) is
partnering with WoofTrax,
Inc., to introduce and promote
the App in this area. You walk
your dog anyway, says Mike
Katz, Director of Communi-
ty Relations for WoofTrax.
Now, for every mile you
walk, we donate to HSNEI.
Whether walking a dog or
by oneself, the App is a way
to keep track of those walks,
encouraging people to walk
more every day. In addition
to the health benets, walkers
also now have the satisfaction
of knowing that their walking
Support HSNEI by
walking the dog
directly benets their local
shelter.
One of the key develop-
ers of the "Take your Walk
for a Dog" program is the
WoofDriver, a world famous
dog-powered sporting lifestyle
expert. WoofDriver focuses on
new and exciting ways to exer-
cise, train and spend time with
dogs.
The local community can
now support HSNEI simply
by walking their dogs. Pro-
ceeds directly benet the many
homeless animals that come
to the local shelter each year
and support the ongoing work
that the local shelter does in
the northeast Iowa counties of
Allamakee, Clayton, Fayette,
Howard and Winneshiek.

Bob and Deb Jacobsen become
new owners of Royal Car Wash
Royal Car Wash, located at
501 Rossville Road in Wau-
kon, is now under new owner-
ship. Bob and Deb Jacobsen
of Clermont purchased the
car wash facility from Rich
and Mary Dreckman of Wau-
kon July 23, and have some
plans to further "clean up"
with additional services to be
offered at the current site.
"We are customer ser-
vice-oriented, and the idea to
renovate the storage bay into
a detail shop is one way for
us to provide more service to
the area and be more accessi-
ble at the car wash," the Ja-
cobsens explain. An existing
storage bay within the facility
is currently being renovated
to provide a vehicle detailing
service where vehicle owners
can choose anywhere from
a basic detailing package to
a deluxe treatment. The de-
tailing service will also of-
fer gift card promotions, and
businesses that wish to have
a direct billing account will
have a eet package made
available to them. Plans are
to have the detailing service
available by mid-August.
The car wash portion of
the business will remain pret-
ty much the same, offering an
automatic bay that utilizes a
brush system and can accept
debit and most major credit
cards. The car wash is open
24 hours a day, while the de-
tailing aspect of the business
will be open at various times
to be determined and by ap-
pointment but will have a 24-
hour answering service.
Having owned and oper-
ated motels for the past 19
years, the Jacobsens say they
were "ready for a change and
a new challenge." "The Roy-
al Car Wash gives us both,"
they shared. "We're learning
the car wash business as we
go. There are a lot of moving
parts in the automatic wash,
so we're just trying to keep
everything running."
Having been married for
20 years and raising four
daughters who range in age
from 20 to nine years, the
Jacobsens recently moved to
Clermont after selling their
last business, the Elms Motel
in West Union, which they
had owned for the past 12
years. Local sports enthusi-
asts may recognize Bob in,
literally, a more "ofcial"
capacity, as he has ofciated
high school baseball, football
and boys and girls basketball
games for many years in the
local area.
Even though residing in
Clermont, the Jacobsens in-
tend to be fully involved with
their new business, and for
those times when they are not
available to be on site, they
have Perry Norton of Waukon
to "keep an eye on" the car
wash for them. Further local
involvement includes help
from Waukon High School
senior Sully Bucheit in the
detailing shop.
"The car wash is a good
t for us," the Jacobsens
said. "We sold our previous
business earlier this year and
wanted to stay in northeast
Iowa. We are looking forward
to serving the Waukon com-
munity and the northeast cor-
ner of Iowa."
For more information, or
to schedule detailing work in
the near future, call 563-568-
2049. The Jacobsens also
plan to have a website estab-
lished and functioning soon
for additional reference.

Royal Car Wash, now under the new ownership of Bob and Deb Jacobsen of
Clermont, recently received a First Dollar Visit from the Waukon Chamber of Commerce.

Funds remain available
for Affordable Housing
Rehabilitation Program
in Waukon to assist with
home improvements
Its not too late for Waukon
residents to take advantage of
the Affordable Housing Reha-
bilitation Grant for owner-oc-
cupied homeowners in the
City of Waukon. Eighteen lo-
cal homeowners have already
taken advantage of the pro-
gram and have had help with
their windows/doors, roofs,
electrical, furnace, driveway
repair and/or some past ood
mitigation help. These home-
owners have stated that they
are highly satised with the
program and the help they
were able to receive.
The Waukon Economic
Development Corporation
and the Federal Home Loan
Bank are announcing that
there is still funding left in
the program. This program
will nance projects through
a ve-year receding forgiv-
able loan and funding limits
per project are set at $7,000
per project. Homeowners
needing some x-up help
are encouraged to check the
program out yet this summer.
Funding will only be avail-
able through the fall of 2014.
Upper Explorerland Re-
gional Planning Commission
(UERPC) has the responsibil-
ity of administering the grant
and overseeing work. Anyone
wishing to learn more about
the program or wanting to
obtain an application should
contact Lori Brockway or

times have been times of the
most personal growth and I
live in deep gratitude. For
all that has been thanks - 42

Could this year's expanded Corn Days event draw crowds like there used to be? ...
The photo above from the Thursday, October 9, 1947 edition of The Waukon Democrat depicts the enthusiasm
and participation the annual Corn Day event once generated nearly 70 years ago. As many may be able to tell, the
1947 photo was taken facing north along the current Spring Avenue in downtown Waukon, with many of the down-
town buildings still recognizable in the surrounding background. The photo was scanned from that October 9, 1947
edition of The Waukon Democrat, which was submitted to The Standard ofce nearly a year ago by Mary Jackson
of Waukon following last year's Corn Days event. This year's expanded version of the annual Corn Days celebration
scheduled for this weekend in Waukon certainly provides
a wide enough variety of events to draw such a crowd as
pictured above, but as the caption from this 1947 photo
read, "It always takes a crowd to make a success of such
an event as Corn Day". A front page headline also read
"City Played Host To Thousands Corn Day". For more
details about this weekend's celebration, see the special
Corn Days publication inserted inside this edition.

Meehan Memorial
Lansing Public Library
to host presentation on the
Battle of Bad Axe as part of
Lansings Roots series
The Meehan Memorial Lansing Public Library will host
a presentation Thursday, August 14 that will describe the
events that led to the capture of Chief Black Hawk after the
Battle of Bad Axe near Victory, WI in 1832. Black Hawk
was the leader of the British Band of Sauk Indians. This
is believed to be the rst presentation of the complicated
sequence of hiding places Black Hawk went to after this
battle. This presentation will identify several myths about
what Black Hawk did during and after this battle, which has
been commonly referred to as a massacre by historians, and
part of which was on lands that later became part of Allama-
kee County. This program will tie together many historical
accounts, with a conclusion not previously presented. The
program will be presented by regional historian, Bill Burke.
Members of the public are also invited to present their own
views of this local historical event. The program will begin
at 7 p.m. at the Meehan Memorial Lansing Public Library
on Main Street in Lansing with a viewing of The Battle
of Bad Axe, produced by Education Technologies UW-La
Crosse and the Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center.

STEM workshop transforms Iowa
teachers into medical detectives
EACSD teacher Lisa Welsh participates
by Shianne Gruss,
Iowa NSF EPSCoR
This summer, a group
of Iowa middle school
teachers abandoned the
books and became crime
scene investigators, learning
techniques and technologies
they will incorporate into
their own science classrooms.
Project Lead the Way Iowa
(PLTW), an Iowa NSF
EPSCoR afliate program,
hosted the new workshop
titled Medical Detectives
June 23-27 on the University
of Iowa campus in Iowa City.
Five teachers, representing
school districts from Lansing
to Chariton, spent the week
investigating medical careers
and researching the medical
detective eld. They learned
the basics of vital signs,
blood pressure and human
body systems, as well as how
to know a bacterium from a
virus. By the end of the week
they had found the blind spot
in their eyes, mapped their
tongues, and even dissected
sheep brains.
In just a few short
months, many middle school
students across Iowa may
be doing similar activities
in the classroom - quite the
departure from mainstream
science learning.
"Science means I would
have to teach the rock cycle,
said Sally Zubarik, the PLTW
core instructor. I mean,
it's important, but it's more
important for the kids to learn
about nanotechnology."
The workshop is part
of the PLTW Gateway to
Technology program, which
aims to prepare middle
school students for PLTW
high school courses. Gateway
is one of many programs
offered by PLTW, a nonprot
organization working in more
than 5,000 schools across the
country, including roughly
200 in the state of Iowa.
MEET THE
INSTRUCTOR
Sally Zubarik has been
teaching the PLTW Gateway
to Technology material
for seven years, both to
students and fellow teachers.
The organization provides
training for educators at all
levels in order to build a
STEM-educated workforce.
Its very different than
how Ive taught science
before, Zubarik said. I
think my classroom is very
messy on most days because
theres just equipment
everywhere, but its a very
hands-on program, and it has
really been able to get our
school on board with current
technology.
Zubarik teaches at St.
Roman Parish School,
Milwaukee, WI, one of
the rst private schools to
incorporate PLTW courses
into their curriculum nine
years ago. Zubarik was also
one of the primary PLTW
master teachers to test the
Medical Detectives workshop
in her own classroom before
teaching it to educators
across the nation.
"That's probably one of
the really good things about
Project Lead the Way,
Zubarik said. Everything
that is presented in a
curriculum has been taught
many times with numerous
teachers in different school
classroom settings. We know
how it works. It doesn't just
work on paper."
Zubarik praised the group
of Iowa teachers participating
in the workshop. They all
seem to be very aware of
whats going on in the state,
she said.
Although this is her rst
time in Iowa, Zubarik has
taught from Baltimore, MD
to San Jose, CA. She said
the group was lucky that it
was so small. At times, there
can be more than 20 teachers
and two core instructors, or
master teachers.
At St. Roman, PLTW is
now the foundation of the
science program. While most
schools admit only select
students into the program,
Zubarik said her classes are
for almost everybody.
BECOMING A STEM
TRAINEE
In addition to the ve
educators, Rick Bonar,
administrative services
coordinator and STEM
director at the State Hygienic
Laboratory, Coralville,
participated in the workshop.
He said he took the course
because he envisions doing
more interactive projects in
the new Oakdale Research
Park training center.
Bonar trains middle
school, high school, college,
and post-doc levels, but most
often kids tour the lab.
Although Bonar got a
business degree, he said he
somehow fell into public
health. "Had I known in
elementary the wonders
of science and wonders of
science occupation, I would
have changed my course of
studies, Bonar said.
Now, the laboratory
encourages STEM training to
grow the workforce, as many
people are retiring.
INNOVATING IOWA
COMMUNITIES
While some workshop
participants have been
teaching for nearly 20 years,
one teacher will be starting
fresh this fall. Will Folkerts,
a recent graduate from
Central College, Pella, will
be teaching sixth grade earth
science and eighth grade
PLTW in his hometown of
Chariton. He said he never
thought hed go back to
Chariton, but PLTW was the
reason he accepted the job.
He will be starting the middle
school PLTW program for the
district.
Another PLTW innovator
was present at the workshop.
Lisa Welsh, who teaches
sixth and seventh grade life
science and eighth grade
PLTW at Lansing Middle
School, was instrumental in
getting PLTW to the middle
school after the grant was
awarded to the districts high
school. Medical Detectives
was her second PLTW
workshop. Welsh attended
Design and Modeling and
Automatic Robotics at Iowa
State University last summer.
Welsh said she has
always been interested in
the engineering side of
science, since she comes
from an engineering family.
She is passionate about
getting females interested in
engineering.
"I think getting exposed
at a younger age makes them
less afraid, Welsh said.

A history lesson ...
Postville native Dan White (pictured above) meticulously restored the Franklin #8 School in the Forest Mills area
over the past several years. The chalkboard pictured above reads, "This Board was covered Feb. 28, 1906 By Har-
vey Roderick and E.V. Teacher." This original chalkboard was covered with slate, but at some point after the school
closed in about 1960 someone stole the slate from the structure. Photo by Kelli Boylen.
Additional history restored ...
Postville native Dan White also restored this cabin which once served as the general
store, post ofce and ofce of the justice of the peace in the Forest Mills settlement,
located just north of Luana along Forest Mills Road. Both this building and the school
can be visited during the August 16 open house. Photo by Kelli Boylen.
Farmers market coupons available for low-income Iowans
Iowa Secretary of
Agriculture Bill Northey
recently announced that
Farmers Market Nutrition
Program applications are now
available for eligible WIC
recipients and low-income
older Iowans. The WIC
and Senior Farmers Market
Nutrition Programs provide
eligible Iowans with checks
that can be redeemed for
fresh, locally grown produce
at authorized farmers markets
and farm stands through
October 31 of this year.
Iowa has great fresh fruits
and vegetables that can be
found at farmers markets
throughout the state and these
programs are designed to give
WIC participants and low-
income seniors better access
to these fresh and nutritious
foods, Northey said.
The Farmers Market
Nutrition Programs are
administered through
the Iowa Department of
Agriculture and Land
Stewardship, in partnership
with the Iowa Department
of Public Health and Iowa
Department on Aging. For
more information contact
Paul Ovrom, Program
Administrator, at 515-242-
6239 or at Paul.Ovrom@
iowaagriculture.gov.
The WIC Farmers Market
Nutrition Program provides
eligible WIC recipients
with nine checks valued at
$3 each. The program is
implementing two changes
for the 2014 season. This year
checks will be distributed
on a rst-come, rst-served
basis. Eligible individuals
may pick up checks at
arranged appointments or at
regularly scheduled clinic
appointments.
A second change this
year is that checks will be
distributed on a statewide
basis. Previously, checks
were only distributed in
68 of Iowas 99 counties,
but this year the Iowa
Department of Agriculture
and Land Stewardship and
Iowa Department of Public
Health have broadened the
distribution to include the
entire state.
A combination of state and
federal funds will be used to
make benets available to
more than 23,000 eligible
WIC recipients this year.
Eligible individuals include
children ages one through
four, pregnant women, and
breastfeeding women that
participate in Iowas WIC
Program.
The states 20 local
WIC agencies have begun
to distribute checks and
nutritional education
information. WIC recipients
interested in obtaining the
benets are encouraged to
contact their local WIC clinic
or visit www.idph.state.ia.us/
wic/ for more information.
Were pleased that WIC
recipients throughout the
state can now acquire these
Program checks, Northey
said. And allowing the
checks to be issued on a rst-
come rst-served basis should
help to get the checks to those
folks that are the most excited
about purchasing local fresh
produce from vendors at
Iowas farmers markets.
The Senior Farmers
Market Nutrition Program
provides eligible seniors
with ten checks for $3 each.
Applicants throughout the
state are offered the checks on
a rst-come rst-served basis
and the checks are available
through Area Agency on
Franklin #8 ...

himself. The ooring was re-
claimed from a 100-plus year
old house that was remodeled
in Waukon. So, although the
oor is not original, the joists
and ooring are as old and
close to period as he could
manage.
The original porch was
gone, but the original posts
were in the building. He was
able to salvage them and he
was able to reconstruct posts
and poles.
Some people dont have
hobbies, he says. My hob-
by is to acquire old things
that have been discarded and
bring them back to life.
He adds, And bringing
something back to life that
has a historical factor for my
family makes it mean even
more.
White had picked up a
couple of old school desks
many years ago in hopes
of a project like this com-
ing along. During the eight
years he owned the structure
he purchased more desks
from auctions, antique stores
and private people. He even
bought an old stove. Franklin
#8 now is lled with pieces
of history from across Iowa,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Mich-
igan and Tennessee. If I saw
anything that might work, Id
pick it up.
An area woman had heard
he was restoring the school
and she contacted him to
ask if he would want the two
original light xtures she had.
The school was wired for
electricity in the 1940s, and
White rewired the building as
well. The original school did
not have a phone, but since he
had one from that time period
he installed that as well.
He also found an old
school bell and rebuilt a bell
tower on top of the roof. He
says it was a bit of a challenge
to gure out the right dimen-
sions working from nothing.
His wife, Valeria, sup-
ported and encouraged him
during the entire project. She
is a teacher in the Clayton
Ridge School District that
serves the Guttenberg and
Garnavillo areas.
My biggest fulllment
was to see the complete trans-
formation from the condition
it was in to what it is now,
White says.
He is hoping people who
attended Franklin #8, those
with stories about the school,
and anyone else who is in-
terested, will attend the open
house they are hosting Au-
gust 16. I really hope stories
can be shared as a result of
my preserving the school, he
says.
The open house is sched-
uled to be held from 1-5 p.m.
at 462 Forest Mills Road
southeast of Waukon.
He is open to the idea of
hosting school groups so
they can see what a one-room
schoolhouse was like.
The open house also will
include the beautiful gardens
Lee and Ruth have worked on
for 22 years, and that Dan and
Valeria now maintain, and a
cabin which once served as
the Forest Mills post ofce,
general store and justice of
the peace.
Forest Mills was once a
settlement with a church,
school and a post ofce for
many years, and restoring the
school house was actually the
second project White worked
on involving the tiny commu-
nity. When Engelhardts tore
down their old house in 1977,
White acquired the original
logs that made up part of that
building. That old cabin now
sits on his parents land, me-
ticulously restored as well.

Iowans are invited to at-
tend one of six public water
quality meetings held by the
Department of Natural Re-
sources (DNR) across the
state. The DNR is gathering
Iowans thoughts on improv-
ing the states water quality
goals as part of its three-year
review of water quality stan-
dards and goals.
The meetings are part of
the triennial review process
set forth in the federal Clean
Water Act, providing oppor-
tunity to the public to help
set state goals for streams and
rivers.

WHERE WILL YOU
FIND YOUR NEXT FIVE
POUNDS OF MILK?
Are you looking to ne-
tune your dairy operation
and capture those next ve
pounds of milk? Using a milk
price of $22/cwt, ve pounds
of milk equals $1.10. When
you subtract 2.5 pounds of
dry matter at a cost of 14
cents per pound, this still
leaves a prot of 75 cents
per cow per day. In a recent
Hoards Dairyman Webinar,
Mike Hutjens with University
of Illinois focused on key
areas that could potentially
lead to more prot.
Examine Feeding Program
An intensied feeding
program can potentially
provide three to four pounds
of milk per day after calving.
This requires calves to
intake two percent of their
bodyweight as DM intake
with a protein greater than
25%. With a goal of doubling
birth weight by weaning age,
calves must gain 1.8-2.0
pounds per day (Holsteins).
Amino acid supplementation
has the potential to increase
milk protein, and increase
milk fat, and increase milk
yield.
Feed shrink also costs
money. An added 52 cents
per day can be added to
a feed cost with a shrink
value of eight percent and
feed cost of $6.50. Tools to
consider are oxygen barrier
cover products that can help
increase dry matter by three
to ve percent, and silage
inoculants that improve dry
matter by three percent and
increase digestible energy
by two percent. The physical
loss through wind, birds and
waste can also be eliminated
if mixing of rations can be
done indoors.
Cach one-percent increase
in forage quality (NDFD)
could add .55 pounds milk.
For example, increasing
forage NDFD from 55-58%
equals 1.65 pounds more
milk. Feed additives should
not be overlooked. Although
they add a cost of three
to 30 cents, the benets of
using the products range
from 30-90 cents per cow.
Feed additives include rumen
buffers, yeast culture/yeast
products, Monensin, Biotin,
and rumen-protected choline.
If feasible, grouping cows
is benecial. Depending on
milk production, more feed
additives or ingredients are
used with higher producing
cows. Even when fed the same
ration, separating heifers
from older lactation animals
increased milk production.

Examine Breeding
Program
With increasing heifer-
raising costs, a goal of 22-24
months is an optimum calving
age. Holstein heifers must be
800 pounds and 51 inches
tall at the withers/hooks by
breeding age to achieve these
goals.
Getting cows pregnant is
another source of added milk.
For each day one day (days
open or days in milk) beyond
target reduces milk yield by
0.2 lb. per day. Reducing 200
DIM to 180 DIM equals 20
days or four pounds of milk.
Also, one unit increase (ex.
15-16%) in pregnancy rate is
worth $35/cow.
Weve known for a long
time that reducing heat stress
in our milk cows provides
comfort and maintains milk
production. We now need to
think about our dry cows and
the effects heat stress has on
them. In a recent study, heat
stressed dry cows produced
ve to 20 pounds less during
lactation, had a shorter
gestation length and calf birth
weights were smaller, which
are not compensated later in
the growth cycle.
Milk Quality also adds
benets to the milk check. A
premium for milk fat, milk
protein, milk quality, and in
some cases a premium for
non-use of rBST can add
value to those extra pounds
of milk.
Work closely with your
industry representatives and
Extension specialists to help
you nd more milk! For
more information about dairy
management, visit the ISU

Native American
Traditions exhibit, other
area artists on display
at Center of the Arts
through September 15
The McGregor-Marquette
Center for the Arts, located
in McGregor, will display the
special exhibit Native Amer-
ican Traditions through Sep-
tember l5. The Center for
the Arts continues to bring
both local and distant art
to the northeast Iowa area.
Many artists within the north-
east Iowa area have their art
on display at the Center. The
public is encouraged to come
and visit with the artists, and
the owner of the collection of
weavings.
The collection of Navajo
weaving of Jamie Ross will
be shown, and the baskets
and artifacts of the Emma
Big Bear Foundation. The
Allamakee New Begin-
nings (ANB) has established
three new funds to increase
access of locally-grown and
processed foods in northeast
Iowa.
ANB is the non-prot
sponsor of the Iowa Food
Hub (IFH). IFH unites the
mission and vision of its part-
ners by buying food from
local farmers and selling it
and delivering it to the places
where most people get their
food, like school food service
and grocery stores.
IFH programming focuses
New funds will increase
access to local foods
on small and medium-sized
farm viability, food access
and equality, local econom-
ic development, job creation
and retention, beginning and
established farmers, and food
system research and educa-
tion.
The three funds were cre-
ated to facilitate community
investment in the regional
food system.
Contributions to the Food
for All Fund will be directed
toward the EBT (food stamp)
matching program. IFH co-
ordinates a worksite/school
grocery food box delivery
program in the region. Cus-
tomers using EBT benets
receive their food box at half
price because of the dona-
tions to this fund. This fund
was started with a grant from
the Allamakee County Com-
munity Foundation.
Contributions to the Farm
to School Fund will be di-

Waukon baseball team wraps up 6-25 record during 2014 season
Handful of close games could have made notable difference in 2014 Waukon softball season
The Waukon baseball team
played to an overall record
of 6-25 this season, a mark
second-year head coach Jerry
Keenan says doesnt neces-
sarily reect the potential that
he saw in this years team that
returned a dozen letterwin-
ners with varsity experience
from a nine-win crew one
season earlier.
I am not certain that our
record was always indica-
tive of the way that we were
capable of playing, Coach
Keenan said. The way we
played the last two weeks of
the season was very encour-
aging as we look forward to
next season. I am proud of
these young men for the way
they represented our school
district and our communi-
ties.
Those nal two weeks of
the season saw this years In-
dians post as many wins for
the year as they had in the
rst ve-plus weeks of this
summers campaign, win-
ning three of their nal seven
games of the regular season.
The last two weeks of the
season were the best base-
ball that we played all year
and I think it showed on the
diamond, Coach Keenan ex-
plained.
In addition to those nal
two weeks of the season,
Coach Keenan looked at the
season as a whole for oth-
er notable aspects. Season
highlights include the players
The 2014 Waukon softball
team played to an overall sea-
son record of 7-25 this sum-
mer, posting a mark of 2-16
to place seventh in the nal
seven-team Northeast Iowa
Conference standings. A re-
versal of a handful of close
games this season - nine con-
tests decided by three runs or
less - would have evened out
that season mark, but this sea-
sons diamond crew seemed
to make things a bit more
difcult for itself with some
offensive and defensive woes.
Our greatest challenges
throughout the season were
producing runs and minimiz-
ing errors, Waukon softball
coach Bob Wasson said. For
next season, I think that the
girls will need an increased
focus on hitting during the
pre-season, and that with
more experience the number
of errors will hopefully de-
cline as well.
Despite those challenges,
the Indians were still compet-
itive in most all their games,
tallying some memorable
moments along the way. Our
come-from-behind confer-
ence win at Decorah was a
memorable win and was in
the middle of a four-game
win streak, Coach Wasson
recalled.
That four-game stretch
of victories early in the sea-
son once had the Tribe at
maintaining a positive atti-
tude all season long, he said.
This season also allowed us
to gain a lot of experience on
the mound and in the eld for
a lot of young players.
Coach Keenan looked no
further than home plate to try
and explain his teams slow
start out of the gate this sea-
son, which saw the Indians
post just three wins in their
rst 11 games before suffer-
ing through a 12-game losing
streak to fall to a 3-20 overall
record. The Tribe averaged
just over seven hits and just
under three runs per game
this season, striking out (159)
almost exactly as many times
as they recorded a hit (160)
during the season.
We didnt start the season
hitting the ball well, Coach
Keenan explained. We need
to come out next year hitting
the ball like we ended the
season this year hitting. We
have to be better with clutch
hitting and our two-strike hit-
ting approach.
Four out of this seasons
six wins for the Indians
came against Northeast Iowa
Conference (NEIC) teams,
including those nal three
victories of the season and
bounce-back victories
where the Indians countered
double-digit or near dou-
ble-digit losses to Oelwein,
New Hampton and Charles
City in NEIC doubleheaders.
That NEIC mark placed the
just a 5-7 season record, but
three different stretches of
seven-game losing streaks
during the season took their
toll on the Indians win-loss
record. Even those losses,
however, provided some
memorable moments, as the
Indians played Northeast
Iowa Conference champion
Waverly-Shell Rock to a pair
of narrow losses this season,
0-2 and 0-3.
A trio of seniors paced
the veteran experience effort
for this years team, Kiersten
Christianson, Jenna Jones and
McKayla Stock being multi-
year varsity letterwinners and
playing their nal games in
a Waukon uniform. The trio
represents a pretty crucial in-
eld defensive triangle, with
Jones behind the plate, Stock
at rst base and Christianson
playing shortstop, in addition
to some center eld, and all
three posted some statistical
leadership numbers.
Kiersten and McKayla
were co-leaders in RBI (18
each) this year, Coach Was-
son said. Jenna did a nice
job of catching three very dif-
ferent pitchers this year, and
she led the team with the few-
est strike-outs (just ve in 70
at-bats) this year.
An abundance of statisti-
cal leadership is still slated to
return for the softball Indians
next season. Sophomore Ka-
baseball Indians in seventh
place in the nal seven-team
league standings, just one
game behind a Charles City
team they won two of three
ley Benzing paced most of
the Tribes offensive efforts
in her varsity debut this sea-
son, compiling team highs of
33 hits, a .367 batting average
and an on-base percentage of
games from this season.
Helping lead the way this
season were four seniors, al-
though only three of them
were able to actually take
.447. Junior Allie Schwartz
was not far behind with sec-
ond-best totals of 27 hits and
a .290 batting average while
posting her own team highs
of 26 runs scored, nine dou-
bles and three triples while
also being one of six Indi-
ans to hit at least one home
run this season. In fact, of
the seven home runs hit by
the Indians this season, four
of them came off the bats of
freshmen, with Emma John-
son pacing that youngest In-
dian power surge with two
round-trippers this season in
her rst-ever varsity action.
Junior Thea Meyer paced
the Indians pitching effort
this season, earning herself
the Tribes only All-Confer-
ence recognition this season
as an Honorable Mention se-
lection. Meyer threw 128 of
the Indians 198 innings in the
circle this season, also lead-
ing the Indians in strike-outs
and with a 3.50 earned run
average (ERA) and opposing
batting average of .250. She
also posted more than half the
Indians victories and kept the
Indians competitive in many
of their other losses, includ-
ing the aforementioned 0-2
and 0-3 losses to NEIC-lead-
ing Waverly-Shell Rock.
No matter what kind of
leadership numbers return
for the Indians next season,
Coach Wasson knows there
is work that needs to be done
between now and then if there
is going to be any improve-
ment upon this years win-
loss record. There needs to
be much more hitting work
done in the off-season, and
our pitchers need to continue
to work on increasing their
speed and location of their
pitches, he offered. All of
the girls would benet from
participating in track to help
increase their quickness.
However, completion of
the 2014 softball season has
also brought to a close - at
least for now - Coach Was-
sons tenure at the helm of
Waukon softball, as he sub-
mitted his resignation from
the position shortly after the
season was done. My de-
cision to resign was based
mainly upon me being hired
as the head girls track coach,
he said. If I was to contin-
ue as the softball coach, that
would have had me coaching
during all four sports seasons
(as he is a football and bas-
ketball coach as well), and
that would keep me from my
family more than I would
like. I will miss working with
the girls and I hope for noth-
ing but the best for them and
the softball program in the
coming seasons.
Three years ago I was ap-
proached to ll a vacancy (in
the coaching ranks of Waukon
softball) and was very happy
to help out. I have thorough-
ly enjoyed my time working
with the girls and will always
remember our incredible run
at the end of our 2012 season
that culminated with a trip to
the State Tournament.
No ofcial decisions have
been made on a replacement
for Coach Wasson at this
point in time.
the eld this season. Hunter
Hammel missed out on the
entire season recovering from
a knee injury suffered during
the football season last fall,
and joined fellow seniors
Tyler Benzing, Parker Hesse
and Sam Schwartz in wrap-
ping up their high school ath-
letic careers with completion
of this summer season.
All four of these young
men are outstanding students
and athletes, Coach Keenan
said. I thank them for be-
ing positive role models for
our team and for the young
people of our communities.
I appreciate a great deal the
leadership that these guys
provided. These guys will
be missed and I wish them
the best in all of their future
plans.
Despite that good share
of senior leadership, it was
mostly members of the junior
class who posted pacesetting
statistical numbers on this
years squad. Juniors Sully
Bucheit and Jake Ronan pro-
vided a majority of the offen-
sive leadership for this years
team, Bucheit driving in a
team-high 17 runs on team
second-best totals of 25 hits
and a .309 batting average
while Ronan paced the of-
fense with 30 hits and a .337
batting average.
Both Ronan and Bucheit
also contributed heavily to
the Indian pitching efforts
this season, each of them
with over 34 innings pitched.
Sophomore Haden Hammel
emerged to the forefront of
the Tribes mound efforts this
season with 48-1/3 innings
and a team-high 39 strike-
outs and team-low earned run
average (ERA) of 5.65.
For their efforts on the dia-
mond this season, both Ronan
and fellow junior Adam Ben-
zing received All-Conference
honors, Benzing being named
a Second Team Inelder and
Ronan receiving Honorable
Mention. Ronan was also
named Team MVP and Hesse
was named as this years Jeff
Houg Award winner for being
most dedicated. Hesse was
also named to the Iowa High
School Baseball Coaches
Association Academic All-
State Second Team, which is
awarded to a senior who is
a starter in 90% of a teams
games or in the pitching rota-
tion, has an ACT score of 24
or higher or ranks in the top
20% of his class, has a grade
point average (GPA) of 3.4 or
higher, and has outstanding
moral character.
With this years leader-
ship numbers being posted
by players eligible to return,
Coach Keenan is optimistic
about prospects for next sea-
son. But he also realizes that
leading returning numbers
wont be enough to guarantee
future success.
The guys need to con-
tinue to throw in open gym
opportunities, he said. I
enjoy seeing the athletes also
play in other sports, and wish
them success in those areas as
well.

Hunter Education Class to be hosted by ACCB at

Conservation Board (ACCB)

p.m. Attendance during both
days of the class is required
for successful completion and

Weightlifting champion at Iowa Summer Games ...
Dave Mooney (center in above photo) of Lansing won the Masters II division in the
181-pound weight category at the Iowa Summer Games weightlifting competition held
in Ames in late July. Mooney competed against other 181-pound weightlifters 50 years
of age and older, compiling a total of 365 points in a three-lift series to far outdistance
the second-place nishers total of 255 points. Being one of 105 lifters competing in
the overall competition within seven ights, one bench press lift at a time, Mooney said
it was hard to determine who he was actually competing against within his division.
Regardless, he lifted 290 pounds in the seeding rounds of the event, and then was
able to win the event with a 265-pound bench press. I happened to know what I need-
ed to win, so didnt want to take a chance of missing the lift with only three lifts allowed,
Mooney said of his 265-pound championship effort. Deadlifting the bar from sitting on
your chest is the most difcult part of the competition, as they are very strict with sev-
eral lifting rules. Mooney says he would like to go back next year and try to compete
in two different weight divisions, in addition to attempting to set a new Masters II state
record. Pictured above with Mooney following his championship effort are his two sons,
Nick (left) and Jason (right). Submitted photo.
Kee softball team makes history during 34-10, State Runner-Up campaign
by Val Meyer
As the monumental 2014
season comes to an end for
the Kee softball team, the
Hawks know that they have
a lot to be proud of. The Kee
diamond dwellers put in a lot
of time throughout this past
off-season to sharpen their
skills, and that hard work
paid off with history-making
results, as the Lady Hawks
posted rst-ever program
milestones of an Upper Iowa
Conference championship, a
Class 1A Regional champi-
onship, and a Class 1A State
Tournament Runner-Up n-
ish, all while posting a school
record for victories in a sea-
son with a 34-10 record.
Winning the quarter-
nal and seminal games (at
the State Tournament) were
huge accomplishments for
this team, Kee softball coach
Liz Hill said. These girls de-
served to be at State.
After knocking off sec-
ond-rated Lynnville-Sully
and then fourth-rated AG-
WSR in those quarternal
and seminal games, respec-
tively, at the State Tourna-
ment, Kees postseason glory
was nally dealt its rst blow
in the Class 1A championship
game against Akron-West-
eld, the defending Class 1A
State Champions and winners
of four of the past ve Class
1A State Tournament titles.
The Hawks actually held a
1-0 lead over the undefeated
Westerners for the rst three
innings, but the softball dy-
nasty awakened and won its
54th consecutive game with
a 12-1 defeat of the softball
Hawks.
Though the Hawks
had been defeated by Ak-
ron-Westeld in the champi-
onship game, Kee had more
support than it could have
ever wished for. In addition
to the support throughout
the teams postseason suc-
cess, the bus that carried the
team through its most glori-
ous week was also escorted
through Waukon by the Wau-
kon Police Department on its
way home, and once the team
hit Churchtown, there were
re trucks from Lansing wait-
ing to take the girls into Lan-
sing, and then make their way
to New Albin in celebration
of the teams historic feat.
From Fort Dodge, the girls
had a majority of their fans
that attended the State Tour-
nament games following the
bus home. The ride home
was emotional for everyone,
Coach Hill said. The team
was not sad, but overjoyed
that the community cared so
much for the softball pro-
gram.
Throughout this historic,
34-10 season, Kee was faced
against many large schools
and was able to become a
better ball club from facing
schools with better competi-
tion, according to Coach Hill.
We played close with the big
schools, she stated. Next
year and in the future we will
have to take the close games
and pull out a win.
The Kee softball and base-
ball elds in New Albin were
under construction for the
rst half of the season, and
the Kee softball team was al-
lowed to play on the Waukon
High School softball eld.
Finding a time and place to
practice was a struggle for
the softball team, but the
situations worked out in the
end. We appreciate Waukon
letting us use their eld while
ours was under construction,
Coach Hill said.
This years softball team
has to say good-bye to three
seniors that have been a
part of the softball program
throughout their four years
of high school. Each of these
has made signicant contri-
butions to a Kee softball pro-
gram that was winless just
two short seasons ago but has
since been transformed into
one of the best programs in
the state of Iowa.
Coach Hill says that short-
stop Kaylee Darling will be
missed for her base running
and her ability to make great
plays, catcher Ellie Heider-
scheit will be missed for her
experienced catching and
knowledge behind the plate,
and center elder Jordan
Colsch will be missed for
her great arm and her ability
to make good plays. These
three girls will all be greatly
missed, Coach Hill stated.
We will miss their leader-
ship next year, and we now
have some big shoes to ll
for next season.
That veteran leadership
was supplemented nicely
by the skills and talent of a
strong nucleus of underclass-
men who look to continue
what was started this year.
Those youthful contributions
resulted in most of this years
statistical leadership, as
eighth grader Kendra Cooper
posted team highs of 67 hits,
seven home runs, 47 runs bat-
ted in (RBI) and a .462 bat-
ting average. She was closely
followed in second place by
sophomore Ellie Coopers 48
runs scored, freshman Court-
ney Coopers six home runs,
and junior Valerie Meyers
.458 batting average and 40
RBI that were helped along
by her team-leading total of
19 doubles on the season.
Darling and Heiderscheit
provided their own statisti-
cal leadership with 52 runs
scored and a .983 eld per-
centage, respectively, with
Ellie Cooper also striking out
just four times this season in
135 at-bats.
The sister Cooper tandem
of Kendra and Courtney also
shouldered all of Kees pitch-
ing duties this season in a
one-two tandem difcult to
beat in doubleheader action
this summer. Kendra threw
a team-high 160-2/3 innings
with 172 strike-outs and an
earned run average (ERA)
of just 1.52 on her way to a
22-5 season record. Court-
ney posted 144 strike-outs in
97-2/3 innings on the mound
enroute to a 2.29 ERA and a
12-5 mark in the circle.
For their efforts this sea-
son, both Cooper sisters
earned First Team All-State
and All-Northeast District
honors for Class 1A from
the Iowa Girls Coaches As-
sociation (IGCA). They
were joined by Meyer in
their All-District accolades,
with Meyer also receiving
Third Team All-State honors.
Coach Hill was also honored
as Coach of the Year for the
Class 1A Northeast District
by the IGCA.
In addition to those broad-
er awards, there were numer-
ous Lady Hawks recognized
by their Upper Iowa Confer-
ence (UIC) colleagues with
All-Conference honors this
season. The Hawks won their
rst-ever UIC season champi-
onship with a record of 20-2
against league opponents this
season.
Receiving First Team
All-Conference honors was
pitcher Kendra Cooper, short-
stop Darling for ineld play
and Meyer for her work in
the outeld. Second Team
All-Conference recognition
was bestowed upon pitch-
er Courtney Cooper, catch-
er Heiderscheit, and second
baseman Ellie Cooper for
ineld. Junior rst baseman
Molly Walleser was awarded
All-Conference honorable
mention.
For off-season work,
Coach Hill says the Hawks
will continue to hit through-
out the winter, as well as
work on elding and lift
weights. Dreams dont work
unless you do was the mot-
to for this past season for the
Hawks, and Coach Hill says
it will take hard work to get
where the girls want to be
next year.
Coach Hill, Assistant
Coach Tiffanie Peters and
the rest of the softball team
would like to extend their
appreciation for support be-
tween donations, welcome
home escorts, the building of
the new eld, having Waukon
letting them use their eld
and also having New Albin
Savings Bank host a meal in
honor of Kee softball. Hill
also said that she would like
to thank Waukon, Lansing
and the New Albin commu-
nities for going above and
beyond to make the 2014
season an unforgettable one.
The last game was a tough
loss, but the community was
able to bring us back up and
helped us remember what we
did was historical, she sum-
marized.

The 2014 Kee baseball
season played out to a 23-17
overall record that included
a mark of 10-6 that placed
the Hawks fourth in the
nal 10-team Upper Iowa
Conference standings. The
Hawks gained momentum
toward the end of the season,
winning seven of their
nine nal regular season
games before heading into
postseason play. Kees
postseason tournament trail
opened with a 7-1 win over
Wapsie Valley in the Class 1A
district quarternals before
its season was brought to a
close with a 5-4 loss in nine
innings to Postville, a team
the Hawks had swept during
the regular season.
A total of six seniors led
this years Kee diamond
squad. Quinn Brennan, Chris
Carroll, Jason Delaney,
Jared Donahue, Nick Gavin
and Matt Manning each
played their nal games in a

Scholarships available for EMT
course being held this fall 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 be held 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
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

Letters to the Editor Policy
The Standard welcomes letters to the editor, as long as they are in good
taste and not libelous. Letters must be signed and the name of the letter writer
will be published. A telephone number is also required so that The Standard
may check authenticity.
The Standard reserves the right to edit or shorten any letter. Letters
should deal with issues, not specific individuals and businesses even though
issues may arise from a specific instance with an individual or business. The
Standard does reserve the right to hold any letter it considers to be libelous
or in bad taste. The Standard also reserves the right not to publish any letter
exceeding 600 words in length (approximately one single-spaced typewritten
page).
Letters should be the original work of the author and not copied from other
sources. Any letter that includes a quotation must also include specific and
accurate attribution to the original source.
The Standard neither vouches for the accuracy of the information offered in
letters to the editor, nor implies agreement or disagreement with the opinions
set forth in those letters. The Standards assumption is that any factual errors
or statements contrary to facts offer other letter writers the opportunity to
have equal say in their own letter to the editor.
The Standard will not publish letters to the editor regarding an issue that
will be coming up for vote during the week prior to the vote.
The Standard will not publish consecutively multiple letters written by one
individual; one week must pass between letters to provide adequate response
time. The Standard reserves the right to deny letters, written by one individual
and pertaining to one issue, beyond three submitted letters.
Political letters: The Standard does not publish letters to the editor which
are critical of individual candidates nor letters in support of individual candi-
dates. It is the newspapers position that those views are best expressed in
paid advertisements, okayed or approved by the candidate or the candidates
registered supporters.
In addition, such letters frequently lead to an exchange of letters ad infini-
tum, which is helpful to no one, including the candidates. The Standard does
welcome letters which express views on issues of the campaign, but which
neither advocate nor denigrate individual candidates.

The
Letter to the Editor
by STATE REPRESENTATIVE
Patti Ruff
State House
from the
News
... that one of the first
things I learned in journal-
ism school was that a writer
should never trust himself to
proof-read his own writings.
Thats because the writer
tends to read what he meant
to write, not what was actu-
ally written.
I think that sometimes
carries over to reading what
someone else has written
when you want it to say what
you are thinking, not what
the writer has written.
Sunday morning when
I was looking at the Cedar
Rapids Gazette I saw an
op-ed piece by conservative
columnist Charles Kraut-
hammer. I read the head-
line as John Kerry is eye-
less in Gaza. How clever, I
thought, to phrase the secre-
tary of states apparent blun-
ders in the Gaza Strip war
with that familiar phrase. It
actually read that Kerry was
clueless in Gaza.
So why did eyeless in
Gaza pop into my mind?
I think it was the name of
a book which came out in
my lifetime, perhaps a mo-
tion picture as well. I am not
online so cant do a Google
search. Those of you who are
can if you care.
But a little old-fashioned
research showed it was in a
line written by English poet
John Milton in the 1600s.
And a footnote directed me
to the Bible, Judges 16:21,
which, guess what, was part
of a discussion about estab-
lishing the state of Israel.
Whats that French
phrase? Plus ca change, plus
le meme chose, or something
like that, meaning the more
things change, the more they
are the same.
Fox News reporters were
breathless one day recently
when they were able to read
some emailed correspon-
dence from Lois Lerner, the
Internal Revenue Service of-
ficial who took the fifth
rather than incriminate her-
self in testimony before a
House committee. Lerner
used a scatological character-
ization to describe conserva-
tives who had applied for IRS
approval of political speech,
and who had been denied or
ignored. She also described
them as crazies and maniacs.
I expected that show of
glee from the conservative
network, and looked forward
to reading what the daily pa-
pers would have to say next
morning.
Nothing.
Not that day, or the next
day, nor the day after, that
I could find. I dont watch
news on the major networks,
and did not notice any refer-
And then I wrote ...
by Dick Schilling, Editor Emeritus
Check out the newly expanded library in Waukon
ence on a brief look at CNN,
so I dont know if the pro-
administration networks gave
it any play. It would seem to
have been worth a mention.
Two more snake oil com-
mercials I have heard.
One is for Texas Super
Food. Cures everything and
makes it unnecessary to eat
anything else. The voice-over
appears to be that of the same
woman who was able to buy
a 48-inch flat screen TV for a
dollar and a quarter, or what-
ever.
The other is for a supple-
ment called nitric oxide. Also
cures everything that could
possibly be wrong with you.
Is that the same as nitrous
oxide, or what dentists used
to use to lightly anesthetize
patients? Laughing gas?
Maybe its like medical
marijuana. It doesnt cure
anything. You just dont care
as much.
The views expressed on this page are not necessarily views shared by this newspaper
Laura Bloch adored his
picture. My husband and
I had just been approved
through an adoption agen-
cy and the agency sent out
a letter with a picture of a
child on it, said Bloch of
Edina, Minnesota, over the
telephone. The letter said
this little boy was available
through a Russian orphan-
age. He was almost three
years old then. This may
sound crazy, but the min-
ute I saw his little face, I
would have moved heaven
and earth to get him.
The Blochs adopted
Alex. At rst, their adop-
tion agency and pediatri-
cian believed he didnt
have fetal alcohol syn-
dromesomething of par-
ticular concern with Rus-
sian adoptions.
However, in kindergar-
ten, Alex had ne motor
development challenges,
including having difcul-
ties holding a pencil. In
second grade, he had per-
sistent trouble following
through on tasks. After
a pediatrician diagnosed
Alex with attention de-
cit disorder (ADD), Bloch
learned about fetal alco-
hol syndrome through
an acquaintance and she
researched. Eventually,
another physician re-di-
agnosed Alex after much
more thorough testing.
The National Institutes
of Health denes fetal al-
cohol syndrome (or spec-
trum disorder) as perma-
nent growth, mental, and
physical problems that
may occur in a baby when
a mother drinks alcohol
during pregnancy.
Today, Alex is 17. Bloch
said, As a parent, the most
frustrating thing for me
is how it affects him in
school. It looks like ADD
on the outside in that he
cant maintain focus for
long periods. But really (on
the inside) the two sides of
his brain arent communi-
cating.
She cited one example of
her working an hour with
Alex to prepare him for a
spelling test. An hour later,
she said, It was like wed
never worked on it. His
short-term memory was
shot, but three weeks later
he could spell those words.
Hed known the informa-
tion (in the short-term), but
couldnt access it.
Bloch said children with
prenatal alcohol exposure
dont have the ability to
link actions with conse-
quences, meaning they live
in the moment. For Alex
thats good because he nev-
er holds a grudge, but bad
in that he makes the same
mistakes repeatedly, even
after continually receiving
negative consequences.
She added, As a par-
ent, Im scared to death he
wont drive responsibly.
These kids are very into
the moment. To them, if it
feels good do it. So risky
sexual behavior is com-
mon, too.

Summer is quickly wind-
ing down and I am still trying
to gure out where July went!
The county fairs have come
and gone with many of you
stopping by the fair booths to
say hello. It is always good
to see folks that I havent
had a chance to see and talk
with in a while. Now our 4-H
kids and many of you will
be heading down to the Iowa
State Fair, culminating fun in
the sun before school starts.
Over the summer, I have
heard complaints and re-
ceived phone calls about
Highway 76 through the
town of Waukon. I did some
checking with the Iowa DOT
and this is what I found out.
A pavement patching proj-
ect was recently awarded for
construction which includes
patching on IA9/IA76 in the
City of Waukon. The project
includes four large full-depth
concrete patches in the areas
of 3rd Avenue South and 2nd
Avenue South. There will
also be more widespread as-
phalt partial-depth patching
throughout this corridor (132
total patches), mostly for the
repair of deteriorated joints.
I was told that the project is
still in the works but I was not
made aware of the contrac-
tors schedule at this time.
The Iowa Conservation
Action Network, Iowa Corn
Growers Association, Iowa
Soybean Association, and
Iowa Land Improvement
Contractors Association have
partnered together to bring
free conservation practice
planning to members farm-
ing in the Turkey River Wa-
tershed.
If you have been thinking
about stepping up your con-
servation game, you dont
want to miss this opportunity
to sit down with a planner to
receive a plan, cost estimate
and map for free!
Conservation practices
include grassed waterways,
ponds, wetlands, sediment
basins and soil loss assess-
ments. This free planning ser-
vice will be held on August
12th from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
at 122 South Vine in West
Union. For more information,

To the Editor:
As the new director of
Waukons library, I have en-
joyed meeting with everyone
who has recognized me from
the newspaper or come to the
library to welcome me. I have
received many well wishes
and all are appreciated.
will be having its grand re-
opening on September 13th,
and I look forward to meet-
ing more members of the
community between now and
then. If you havent been over
to see the library since the
renovations and expansion, I
encourage you to do so.
Not only do we have hun-
dreds of new titles, there are
movies, audiobooks, puzzles
and a brand new young adult
section.
If you have a tablet or
smartphone, bring it in and
well show you how to set up
NEIBORS and access books
online.
Or come to our weekly sto-
ry time on Tuesdays at 10:30
and check out Tippie the cow
(you cant miss her!).
Waukon is lucky to have
such a rst-class facility and
I am lucky to be a part of it.

about the library and the ser-
vices it provides, please dont
hesitate to contact me!

CORNER
Word for
Word
Give, Give, Give
Matthew 14:16
Jesus said to the
disciples, you
give them some-
thing to eat!
On the rst
Sunday of August,
we heard the par-
able of Jesus and
the feeding of
the 5,000 in our
scripture lessons.
In that lesson, we
often focus on the
two sh and ve loaves, or
upon the numbers of people
who were fed, or even on the
sense of Holy Communion
that we feel when Jesus lifts
up the bread to give thanks to
God.
But at the very center of
this story is a simple les-
son on giving! It is a story
about stewardship. The Gos-
pel writer John tells us that
a young boy gives his sack
lunch to the disciples. The
disciples give the two sh
and ve loaves to Jesus. Jesus
lifts them up to God (the great
giver of all) and gives thanks.
Then Jesus turns and gives
the sh and loaves to the dis-
ciples. The disciples give the
sh and bread to the crowd.
When they had all eaten and
were satised, they gather up
12 baskets and give it back to
the disciples.
Certainly giving requires
a level of trust
by the giver. You
want to know that
what you give
and where you
give it is being
used in way you
wanted that gift to
be used. But giv-
ing also requires
faith. The little
boy in this story
had no idea how
his gift would be
used! He simply
felt compelled to
give! And his gift started a
chain of giving.
What gifts have you to
offer today - whether it be
at work or at your home or
at church? What gifts are
you willing to share in faith,
without any assurance of the
response? Imagine what reac-
tion you might get this eve-
ning if you give your spouse
a simple compliment when
you get home. What kind of
reaction would you get from
a co-worker if you give them
words of encouragement and
support. What gifts are you
willing to give to the church,
to let God multiply beyond
our imagination! Your simple
gift can start a chain reaction
of giving in your household,
with your co-workers and in
church.
Dear Lord, Help me to
give, freely, selessly, grate-
fully. Amen.
How to interpret your
tax statement
My tax statement came in
the mail today & my taxes
went up! Why did the tax in-
crease? How can I nd out?
Under the heading Valua-
tions and Taxes you will nd
two columns. One column
lists the 2013 year assessed
value and taxable value. The
second column lists the 2012
year assessed value and tax-
able value. If you compare
the 2012 and 2013 assessed
value and they are the same
gure, your tax increase has
not been caused by a change
in your assessment. If the as-
sessed value has increased
or decreased, you have dis-
covered the rst reason for
change in the amount of tax
due. Contact the Allamakee
County Assessors ofce if
you have questions regarding
changes to your assessment.
The second column shows
taxable value. Why is taxable
value different than the as-
sessed value? In Iowa, a per-
son may or may not pay taxes
on 100% of their assessment
depending on the classica-
tion. This is called a rollback
and is gured each year by the
Iowa Department of Revenue
based on calculations estab-
lished in Iowa Code 441.21.
My Total Value is dif-
ferent than my Net Taxable
Value.
If there is a difference be-
tween these two gures you
are a qualifying military vet-
eran and have applied for a
military exemption. A mili-
tary exemption reduces an
individuals taxable value by
the amount set in Iowa Code
426A, the most common re-
duction being $1852 of valu-
ation.
Next we see the last year
and current year levy per
1000. This gure is the num-
ber of dollars of tax calculat-
ed for every thousand dollars
of taxable value.
Is the levy amount dif-
ferent this year than last
years? What causes this?
The levy is calculated
based on the budgets of all
entities receiving tax dollars.
Some of these include the
county, city school, township,
assessor, etc. Public hearings
are held by all taxing bodies
prior to establishing their por-
tion of the total levy. Ques-
tions regarding budgeting and
levies may be directed to the
Allamakee County Auditors
Ofce.
Youll also see that gross
taxes have been calculated. Is
the amount different than last
year? The gross tax amount is
based on assessment, taxable
value, levy rate and military
exemption.
Do I have any credits and
am I receiving all credits I
could qualify for?
Homestead Credit: You
must be an Iowa resident, this
must be your primary resi-
dence and you must live there
six months out of the year.
Only one homestead credit
per qualifying individual is
allowed in the State of Iowa.
Applications must be led
with the County Assessor.
Ag Land Credit: Property
must be classied agricultur-
al, tract must be 10 acres, no
application is necessary.
Family Farm Credit:
Property must be classied
agricultural, tract must be
10 acres, a qualifying per-
son must be participating in
farming and application must
be led with your County As-
sessor.
Business Property Tax
Credit: Property must be clas-
sied commercial, industrial
or railroad and application
must be led with the County
Assessor.
Low Income/Elderly
Credit: Application must be
led annually with the Coun-
ty Treasurer. This year to be
eligible you must have a to-
tal household income of less
than $21,698.00. Questions
regarding this may be direct-
ed to the County Treasurer.
Finally, youll see the Net
Annual Taxes with rst half
being due and collectable
September 30, 2014 and sec-
ond half due March 31, 2015.
Questions regarding amount
of tax due, penalty, and if
payments have been made
can be directed to your Coun-
ty Treasurer.

The 2014 Waukon girls golf
team elded an overall young
squad that saw several different
players take leadership roles in
the Indians' nal meet results
throughout the season. The
Tribe lady linksters competed
against some strong competition
in addition to Mother Nature
this season, as a handful of
meets were either rescheduled
or canceled due to wet or wintry
weather. The Lady Indians
ultimately ended their season
with just a single dual meet
victory over Oelwein, a team
they also nished in front of in
placing sixth in the Northeast
Iowa Conference Tournament
before wrapping up their season
with an eighth-place nish at
their Class 3A First Round
Regional Tournament.
Just two seniors were the
upperclassmen leaders for
this year's squad, as Haylee
Rathbone and Taylor Sholes
wrapped up their high school
careers with completion of
this season. The Indians had
anywhere from a freshman to
a junior leading them on the
course in this season's nal
competition results, making
optimism run high for next
season's returnees.

We all know that work can sometimes be mind-numbingly boring, difcult to the point of frustration, and stiing to the soul. But, it can also be exciting, provide a sense of accomplishment, and allow us to
serve God by serving our fellow man. So, how do we ensure that we have more of the latter and less of the former? There is considerable evidence that what makes workers happy is a sense of agency, the sense
that they are effective at what they are doing and that it is worthwhile work. What this really boils down to is doing something that you are good at. So, if youre in a job or career that you dont feel particularly
suited to, youre probably not feeling great about your work. In that case, you should probably either retrain for a different job or work on the skills that will make you more effective in your current job. God has
given all of us specic talents, and if we can incorporate those into our work we are bound to be happier and more effective. But, even if you arent particularly good at what you do or happy where you work, do
your best to put on a happy face each day at work. Sometimes happiness at work, like happiness in life, is just a choice that we make. - Christopher Simon
Work hard and cheerfully at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Colossians 3:23

CRP Early Contract Termina-
tion (Early Out) Provisions
The Agricultural Act of
2014 requires that the Secre-
tary offer producers the op-
portunity for an early out
for certain CRP contracts
during FY 2015, if those
contracts have been in effect
for at least ve years. June 5,
2014, USDA announced the
intent to offer early outs.
The early out option will
be available to CRP partici-
pants with acreage devoted to
certain practices that meet el-
igibility criteria. The sign-up
period for CRP participants
to terminate acreage under
the early out provisions is
August 6, 2014 through Janu-
ary 30, 2015. Effective dates
for early outs shall be no
earlier than October 1, 2014.
Contracts must be in effect
for at least ve years to be
eligible for termination under
the early out provisions.
Only CRP contracts with ef-
fective dates of October 1,
2009 or earlier are eligible for
termination under the early
out provisions.
The following practices
are eligible for termination
under the early out provi-
sions:
CP1, Establishment of
Permanent Introduced Grass-
es and Legumes
CP2, Establishment of
Permanent Native Grasses
CP3, Tree Planting
CP10, Grass Already Es-
tablished
CP11, Trees Already Es-
tablished.
All other practices are not
eligible for early outs.
The following land is not
eligible for termination under
the early out provisions:
land that is located with-
in an average of 120 feet of
a perennial stream or other
permanent water body. A pe-
rennial stream is a stream that
contains water throughout the
year. Other permanent water
bodies include a lake or pond
that provides at least a sea-
sonal ow of surface water
from the water body off the
farm.
land with an erodibility
index (EI) greater than 15
land located within a fed-
erally designated wellhead
protection area
land that is covered by an
easement under CRP
land enrolled under
CREP.
Example: The CRP par-
ticipant has 40 acres enrolled
under CRP contract as CP1,
Introduced Grass. The entire
40 acres has an average EI
of 18. Even though the prac-
tice is eligible, the contract
is not eligible for early out
because the land has an EI
greater than 15.
The following are general
provisions for acreage termi-
nated under the early out
provisions:
CRP participants shall
le CRP-41 to request ter-
minations under early out
provisions
CRP participants may re-
quest to terminate all or any
portion of the eligible acreage
under CRP contract under
early out provisions.
Measurement service is
available at the participants
expense for partial acreage
terminations under early
out provisions. Practices not
eligible for early out may be
terminated. Refunds of all an-
nual rental payments and C/S
payments, plus interest and
liquidated damages, shall ap-
ply.
The effective date of the
termination under early out
provisions shall be no ear-
lier than October 1, 2014, and
no later than September 30,
2015.
A prorated payment re-
duction will apply from the
effective date of the termina-
tion through September 30,
2015.
Mid-contract manage-
ment activities scheduled
in FY 2015 are not required
for contracts with approved
CRP-41s for early out.
Payment reductions for
noncompliance before the
termination under early out
provisions, if applicable, shall
be reduced from the nal an-
nual rental payment.
Early land preparation
provisions may be requested
along with land that will be
terminated under the early
out provisions.
Early out will not af-
fect the ability of the owner
or operator that requested the
early out to submit a subse-
quent offer to enroll the land
that was subject to the CRP
contract into CRP.
After COC approval,
CRP-41 is irrevocable.
Final payment on the acre-
age terminated under early
out provisions shall be:
prorated from the effec-
tive date of the termination
through September 30, 2015
disbursed after October
1, 2015, during the regular
payment cycle for CRP an-
nual rental payments.
County Ofces shall in-
struct landowners requesting
early out for agricultural
purposes to meet with NRCS
about proposed land use ac-
tivities that may impact their
eligibility for other USDA
benets.
Participants approved for
early out must maintain an
applied conservation system
or haying or grazing plan
until the effective date of the
early out. 6-CP provisions
apply on acreage terminated
under early out provisions
if the producer intends to
receive certain other USDA
benets.
For FY 2015, participants
shall report acreage termi-
nated under early out pro-
visions on FSA-578 based
on the actual use, not as CRP
acreage.
Crop acreage bases shall
be reinstated effective the
date of the early out.
Margin Protection Program
for Dairy Producers
The 2014 Farm Bill autho-
rizes MPP-Dairy, a new dairy
program, to replace the MILC
program no later than Sep-
tember 1, 2014. The MPP-
Dairy program is a voluntary
program that provides dairy
operations with risk man-
agement coverage that will
pay producers when the dif-
ference between the national
price of milk and the average
cost of feed falls below a cer-
tain level selected by the pro-
ducers in a dairy operation.
The MPP-Dairy program
offers dairy producers the fol-
lowing:
Catastrophic coverage, at
no cost to the producer, other
than an annual $100 adminis-
trative fee
Greater coverage at vari-
ous levels for a premium in
addition to the $100 adminis-
trative fee.
Eligible dairy operations:
Share in the risk of pro-
ducing milk
Make contributions (in-
cluding land, labor, manage-
ment, equipment, or capital)
to the dairy operation of the
individual or entity, which
are at least commensurate
with the individual or entitys
share of the proceeds of the
operation.
To participate in the MPP-
Dairy program, an eligible
dairy operation must:
have a production history
determined for the dairy op-
eration
register to participate
during a sign-up announced
by FSA
pay a $100 administrative
fee annually for the duration
of the MPP-Dairy program
select a coverage level
ranging from $4.00 to $8.00
per cwt, in $0.50 increments
select a coverage percent-
age of the dairy operations
production history ranging
from 25 percent to 90 per-
cent, in 5 percent increments.
A dairy operation selection
of a $4.00 coverage level is
considered catastrophic level
coverage at a 90 percent cov-
erage percentage for only the
administrative fee. However,
a dairy operation selecting a
coverage level above $4.00
must also pay a premium, in
addition to the administrative
fee, for the higher coverage
on their selected percentage
of dairy operations produc-
tion history.
Repealing Standard Pay-
ment Reduction for Grazing
by Livestock for Beginning
Farmer or Rancher
Section 2004 of the Agri-
cultural Act of 2014 reduced
the standard payment reduc-
tion for beginning farmers or
ranchers for conducting graz-
ing. Prescribed grazing for
the control of invasive species
and routine grazing by live-
stock of a beginning farmer
or rancher is authorized with-
out any reduction in the rental
rate if the grazing is:
consistent with the con-
servation of soil, water qual-
ity, and wildlife habitat
subject to appropriate re-
strictions during the nesting
season.
Effective February 7,
2014, this provides policy
that the standard payment
reduction for beginning farm-
ers or ranchers conducting
prescribed or routine grazing
shall not be assessed. Man-
aged grazing will still have
the 25% payment reduction.
(Does not apply to CRP con-
tracts approved prior to July
28, 2010.)
CRP participants who
need to know if they have a
prescribed or routine grazing
plan for their CRP contract
may contact the Allamakee
County FSA ofce at 563-
568-2148.
Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach of-
ces across northeast Iowa
are hosting farmland leas-
ing meetings from July 30
through August 21 at selected
locations. These meetings
will address questions that
land owners, tenants, or other
interested individuals have
about farmland leasing.
Remaining sessions in-
clude:
Farmland leasing meetings being held
Osage at 9 a.m. August 14;
Cresco at 1:30 p.m. August
14;
Waterloo at 9 a.m. August
15;
Tripoli at 1:30 p.m. August
15;
Elkader at 1:30 p.m. Au-
gust 21.
Meetings are approximate-
ly 2 hours long. Attendees
will gain understanding of
current cash rental rate sur-
veys and factors driving 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
lease agreement and termina-
tion forms, and other publica-
tions.
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
Schulte, ISU Extension and
Outreach Farm and Ag Busi-
ness Management Specialist.
Pre-register and nd out
additional meeting and loca-
tion details by calling the cor-
responding local county ex-
tension ofce for the meeting.
September 1 is deadline
for terminating farm leases
Now is a good time for
land owners to think about
their farm lease for the 2015
crop year. According to Iowa
law, landowners who want to
terminate their rental agree-
ments or make changes in
current lease terms, proper
notice of termination must be
served by September 1, prior
to the end of the lease year.
This applies to both cash and
crop-share leases, but not
custom farming contracts.
In 2013, the Iowa Legis-
lature made a change in state
law regarding lease termina-
tion. The previous law ex-
empted termination notice for
parcels under 40 acres. Now,
a written notice of termina-
tion is required on all tracts
of rented farmland, regardless
of size. Farm leases automati-
cally continue as written from
year to year unless either
party gives a notice of termi-
nation. Even an oral lease is
automatically renewed if it is
not properly terminated.
Oral leases are only valid
for one year at a time in Iowa.
In order to have a longer con-
tract, it must be in writing.
Leases that are more than ve
years in length are required
by law to be recorded. The
termination notice must set
the date of termination as
March 1. The lease year runs
from March 1 to the last day
of February of the following
year.

There are three methods
of serving a farm lease notice
of termination in Iowa. The
following is quoted from the
Code of Iowa, Section 562.7:
Notice How and when
served. Written notice shall
be served upon either party
or a successor of the party
by using one of the following
methods:
1. By delivery of the no-
tice, on or before September
1, with acceptance of service
to be signed by the party to
the lease or a successor of the
party, receiving the notice.
2. By serving the notice,
on or before September 1,
personally, or if personal ser-
vice has been tried and can-
not be achieved, by publica-
tion, on the same conditions,
and in the same manner as is
provided for the service of
original notices, except that
when the notice is served by
publication no afdavit is
required. Service by publica-
tion is completed on the day
of the last publication.
3. By mailing the notice
before September 1 by certi-
ed mail. Notice served by
certied mail is made and
completed when the notice
is enclosed in a sealed enve-
lope, with the proper postage
on the envelope, addressed to
the party or a successor of the
party at the last known mail-
ing address and deposited in
a mail receptacle provided by
the United States postal ser-
vice.
A form titled Notice of
Termination of Farm Tenan-
cy is available from the Iowa
State University Ag Decision
Maker website as AgDM C2-
19 and can be found online at

dataTHRESH launches
Farmer Community Forum
dataTHRESH, Inc., the
developer of a leading inde-
pendent platform of precision
ag data tools for farmers, an-
nounced recently the launch
of its Farmer Community
Forum, focused on farmer
data topics, at the InfoAg
precision ag conference in St.
Louis, MO.
The Farmer Community
Forum is a place online where
farmers can ask, discuss, and
learn about data topics from
other progressive farmers and
invited experts. The Forum is
free to farmers.
The data revolution in
agriculture is taking the in-
dustry by storm so it is very
important for farmers today
to stay in the drivers seat for
their farm data. Farmers need
to get up to speed quickly on
the issues and opportunities
with their data. Thats why
we created the dataTHRESH
Farmer Community Forum
and offer it free, says Mike
Coon, dataTHRESH Found-
er and 6th generation Iowa
farmer.
Its just like earlier times
in agriculture when indepen-
dent farmers worked together
for threshing, Coon added.
Today, its data that farmers
are threshing, and the need to
keep as much of the value of
that data on the farm as pos-
sible is just as important as
it was with grain 100 years
ago.
In the age of social net-
working, dataTHRESH is
creating a unique indepen-
dent community where fel-
low farmers can become
knowledgeable about data.
Based in Ames,
dataTHRESH is developing
an independent platform of
precision ag data tools to help
improve farmer protabil-
ity. dataTHRESH is actively
seeking more input from corn
and soybean growers to help
build independent data tools
for independent farmers who
believe in owning their own
data.

The family of Delbert Tiny Fish
wishes to thank the relatives and many friends who
comforted us during the time of Tinys illness and death.
Over the months you have helped him with your friendship
to continue to enjoy life; and now by all of your kind words
and acts of love and kindness. We appreciate it all, whether
it was prayers, thoughts of sympathy expressed, cards and
memorials, food brought to the house, whatever part you had
in easing our grief in losing our husband, father, grandfather
and friend.
Also, thank you to Dave Martin, Chrissy and Craig for
taking care of arrangements, to even the smallest details; to
Dr. Nesseim for his help in caring for Tiny; to the VA ofce
administrator, Heather, for her help; and to Tinys friends at
the stores he stopped at, especially the City Club, for a coke
or hot chocolate. A special thanks to his good friend, Floyd
who was always a rock for him, and to Duane, Marian, Joyce,
Jan, Jean and Linda for their help and support in these last
days.
Thank you to Rob Brede for delivering the funeral discourse
with a message of such a sure hope we can smile through
our tears. Also thanks to Jason for the heartfelt poem he
wrote about Tiny, and to Indigo and Stephanie for the song
reminding us of the music Tiny loved. Thank you to the
friends who helped with the funeral lunch and for the food
brought in for our physical strength, and a time to reect on
many good memories.
You have all made this difcult time easier to bear. Your
many acts of kindness will long be remembered, along with
the love and memories we have of Tiny, until the time comes
when we can meet again.

ago.

75 Years Ago
August 16, 1939
This Week in the
County, State and Nation
Long Beach, Calif., (INS)
One hundred thousand pres-
ent and former residents of
the state of Iowa held a picnic
Saturday in Long Beach. For-
mer Gov. Frank F. Merriam,
an Iowa boy who made good,
was one of the speakers.
Des Moines, Aug. 10, (AP)
Iowas corn outlook today
was xed at 47.5 bushels per
acre on the basis of condi-
tions of the crop Aug. 1, one
and a half bushels above the
largest average crop ever har-
vested by the farmers of this
state, the federal agricultural
department said today.

Allamakee Corn Wins
This was demonstrated
Tuesday when a stalk of corn
grown by Albert and Charles
Hartley on their farm near
New Albin in Allamakee
county was the tallest of any
entered in The Telegraph-
Heralds tall corn contest
for Dubuqueland farmers in
Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin.
The tallest stalk was 16 feet
and 6 and 7-16 ins. tall. Sec-
ond, LaVern Bublitz, Lansing
twp., 16 ft., 7-16 ins.; 3rd, Er-
nest Kickbush Turkey River,
14 ft. 6-14 ins.

Waterville
The Waterville city dads
did a good job of oiling and
graveling the streets the past
week. They sanded the street
over the oil which makes it
reasonably clean, so dont
be afraid of getting your car
mussed up.

Birthday parties were
the order of the day the past
week. One was held for each
of the following parties: John
Wilson, Joe Johnson, and
Mrs. John McGeough. The
usual social time was enjoyed
at all three of them.

French Creek
The ball game played on
the French Creek diamond
Sunday afternoon between
Lycurgus and Iowa River
boys was won by the latter,
the score being 5 to 0. Arnold
Rowe was the home run king.

Mr. and Mrs. Del Mosher
of La Crosse, accompanied
by G.C. Hartley, motored to
Mason City Tuesday to at-
tend the Fair, Mr. H.s trotting
horse being entered in the
races there.

English Bench
Mrs. Tom Waters is having
a rock garden built with water
from the owing well being
used. When completed it will
be a ne piece of work.

Harpers Ferry
The baseball game here
Sunday between St. Olaf and
the Hawks was won by the
latter by a score of 8 to 0. The
game was scoreless until the
6th when the locals began
scoring. Red Robinson was
on the mound for the Hawks
and pitched a very good
game. He was master of the
situation at all times, and re-
ceived very ne support from
his teammates. The makes
the second shutout Red has
pitched in succession, which
is not an easy thing to do
against teams like Monona
and St. Olaf.

New Albin News
Miss Kathryn Rice and sis-
ter, Miss Violet Freuchte left
Wednesday of last week on
a motor trip to points in Illi-
nois, New York, Washington,
D.C., and Ontario, Canada.
They expect to be gone about
three weeks.

Waukon Briefs
Professor A.B. Elrad
of Nebraska was in Waukon
this week seeking his work
of breaking horses. The pro-
fessor has trained and broken
9,400 horses in the last 30
years and claims to read the
horses mind for he is able to
predict every action a horse
or mule will make. Though
his many years of experience,
he recognizes the disposition
of any horse by the shape of
its head and treats each horse
as an individual according to
his judgment of its character.
Its hard to believe, Mr. El-
rad said, that one can break a
stubborn horse or mule with-
out cussing, but Ive never
uttered an oath in 30 years.
The professor, who has a way
with all animals, is 64 years
old but is as agile as a youth
of 20. It usually takes him
from one to three hours to
break and train a horse.

The Calhoun Creamery
Co. of Churchtown, whose
plant is termed one of the
thriving creameries in N.E.
Iowa, is engaged at present in
manufacturing and shipping
a carload of butter a week to
New York City. A shipment
from Waukon on Tuesday
consisted of 466 tubs.

Five Waukon youths suc-
cumbed to the siren call of
the New York Fair and de-
parted Wednesday morning
by automobile. They are Da-
vid Flage, whose car is being
used, Jack Wadsworth, Walter
Hagen, Alfred Odegaard and
Arno Buntrock. It is their
plan to camp out each night
on the way in tents and to pre-
pare their own meals. Besides
a visit to the fair their three
weeks sojourn will include
visits with relatives and stops
at Mammoth Cave in Ken-
tucky, the nations capital,
Niagara Falls and places in
Canada.

Leppert Sells Fine Cattle
Chicago, Aug. 10: C.H.
Leppert, well known Alla-
makee county, Iowa, stock-
man, marketed a drove of
heifers of his own feeding
on the Wednesday market at
the Chicago Stock Yards this
week. They were among the
high sellers of the trade.
The consignment consist-
ed of 80 head of 723 pound
cattle and the price was $9.00
per cwt. without sorting. Ac-
cording to Mr. Leppert, these
cattle were fattened on a ra-
tion of corn and a commercial
supplement plus a mixture of
linseed oil meal, cottonseed
meal, and soybean meal.

Lansing Locals
Rev. Kerndt M. Healy of
Notre Dame, Ind., arrive Sun-
day for a visit in this city with
relatives. He came via the Hi-
awatha to La Crosse, where
he was met by the Moritz
Kerndt family and brought
to Lansing. The reverend
gentleman is an instructor at
Notre Dame University.

Expressman Tade Bechtel
put a ne new truck in service
last Wednesday, with Joe Teff
as temporary driver due to his
injury received three weeks
ago. Mr. Bechtel, who had
been conned to his bed, sat
up for the rst time Sunday
and after about a week he and
his family will enjoy a ten
days vacation, after which it
is expected he will be able to
resume his work as express
agent.

News From The State
Capital: Unmarked Cars
The experiment of the
highway patrol in having un-
marked cars in each district is
having an effect on arrests on
highways. The patrol reports
that during one week each
patrolman using an unmarked
car arrested an average of 11
motorists and averaged an ad-
ditional 13 contacts with mo-
torists who were given warn-
ing ticket or tickets for minor
violations. The 24 contacts
per unmarked car is about
twice as many as can be made
with a marked car, according
to the patrol.
