Who does 911 call during an emergency? In the case of the failure of a generator to start during a recent storm that hit Gallatin, the answer was to call an electrician, a gas man, a fireman and a commissioner to troubleshoot the problem. When the power went out during the July 12 wind storm, the generator at the 911 office failed to start. This caused the 911 center to lose power to all equipment, phones, radios, lights, etc. as the back-up batteries are only designed to run a short time until the generator starts. Kyle McBroom was called and discovered the main natural gas line to the courthouse had been shut off, which caused a domino effect, resulting in other issues. John Sterneker, manager of Summit Natural Gas in Gallatin, was called and checked the gas line and changed the spark plug. County Commissioner Wayne Uthe and Gallatin Fire Protection District Firefighter Micah

Sidebottom also helped get the generator started. Later, 911 Supervisor Dana Carder talked with the Daviess County Commissioners about the problem, and they were unsure how or why the natural gas had been turned off. Supervisor Carder reported to the 911 Board at its July 27 meeting that the generator had been performing well at its weekly maintenance since then and seems to be back in good working order. The board discussed ways to avoid such a problem in the future. A handheld radio will be purchased. Battery packs will be ordered. Summit Gas was contacted regarding a seal to put on the main gas valve. Daviess County Central 911 expressed thanks to Kyle McBroom, John Sterneker, Wayne Uthe and Micah Sidebottom for working on the generator, the City of Gallatin for making 911’s power a priority, and CarQuest for the donation of parts. In other business, it was noted that the Geo-Comm mainte-

nance contract is due in September. All employees successfully completed their Emergency Medical Dispatch certifications. A letter from Federated Insurance was presented to the board. Federated Insurance will no longer be providing group health/life insurance coverage as of January 2018. Supervisor Carder will check into different insurance companies. The treasurer’s reports were accepted with June bills of $16,199.48, revenue of $34,671.54, and a checkbook balance of $40,527.46 presented; and July bills of $11,641.29, revenue of $49,580.58 and a checkbook balance of $60,083.66 presented. A $50,000 CD was deposited with a six-month renewal period. The above are from the unapproved minutes of the July 27 meeting of the 911 Board. Present were Gene Walker, John Sullenger, Daniel Wilson, Joyce Eads and Ronetta Burton. Absent were Todd Watson and Kate Chrisman. Also present was Supervisor Dana Carder.

Two eclipses for Mary McMahon Eclipses, like parenthesis, have enclosed both ends of Mary McMahon’s life — once when she was an infant and now again as a centurion. Mary McMahon, 100, was around for the total solar eclipse in June 1918. The 1918 total solar eclipse occurred on June 8, during the last days of World War I. The path clipped Washington State, moved across the whole of Oregon, and then the rest of the country, exiting over Florida. Mary was born in April of 1917 in Harvard, Neb. She was only one-year-old so she Mary McMahon doesn’t really remember the 1917 eclipse event. The second one proved more memorable. Mary arrived at the north side of the courthouse lawn in Gallatin for the Great American Eclipse of 2017 on Monday, Aug. 21. Mary reminisced about growing up on a farm outside Gallatin and working at the Brandom Law Office, which would have been located across the street from where she was sitting. Mary was accompanied by her daughters Kathleen and Eileen. Her other children are Casey, Joan and Lloyd. Mary now lives in Bethany.

Little Otter Creek considers others for hook up

Little Otter Creek Project, south of Hwy 36 about 3 miles from Hamilton, in neighboring Caldwell County

Cathy Youtsey, chair of the Little Otter Creek Wholesale Water Commission, has been meeting with area public water supply districts to explore the possibility of making a connection to the Wholesale Water’s distribution system as a secondary or emergency supply of water for their customers. Recently, the Commission has met with Public Water Supply District #1 in Daviess County. Ms. Youtsey believes the precaution is warranted. “During the drought of 2012, water districts in our area got down to a 13-to-30 day water supply,” she said. “People don’t understand how serious that is. If that happens, if

we run out of water, then there is no backup plan. Hundreds of square miles would be without water. You won’t be able to just open a faucet, or buy it, or ship it in. It’s just gone at that point. We need these reservoirs to withstand the droughts. The Little Otter Lake project, located about three miles east of Hamilton, is being built to serve multiple purposes, like recreational opportunities and flood prevention. But mostly it is being built to satisfy the need for an adequate, dependable, locally-controlled, rural water supply. The Little Otter Lake construction is directed by the Caldwell County Commission.

The County Commission is a separate governing entity from the Wholesale Water Commission. Ms. Youtsey explained that by state law, a county cannot be in the water business. That is, a county cannot process water, or sell and distribute finished water. A county can only sell raw water. The Caldwell County Commission owns the property and will build Little Otter Lake and construct a dam. Caldwell County will then sell raw water from the lake to the Wholesale Water Commission. The Wholesale Water Commission will then be in charge (continued on page 11)

Nobody quite knew what to expect but almost everybody now knows about the 2017 Great American Solar Eclipse. The Daviess County Library spearheaded the local focus on this historic celestial event. Using funds and expertise provided by the NASA@mylibrary program, a series of stargazing and informational sessions during the weeks leading up to Aug. 21, 2017. Finally, the moment arrived. At approximately 1:08 p.m. the moon totally eclipsed the sun for over a minute here, a celestial wonder despite cloud coverage which made the quick transition from sunlight to twilight dusk less dramatic.

Accent lighting on the courthouse dome and street lights contrast with the “twilight dusk” of Monday’s total eclipse of the sun. Hundreds gathered around the courthouse to witness the event. A video slideshow is featured on www.NorthMissourian.com, created by event photographer Jill Steward. View even more of Jill’s photos on www.theJPEGstudio.

The travelin’ itch by Freida Marie Crump

The smooth side of a speed bump I got the only “A” in my driver’s education class, back in the day. Kids today don’t know what that’s all about, so just for their sake, let me explain. Once upon a time driver’s education was a class you took while in high school. Usually, the teacher was an assistant coach or actually anyone who needed the extra money enough to brave the occasional predicament. But usually, these driver’s ed teachers were mostly bored -- especially after automatic transmissions came standard in almost every model, riding miles and miles to nowhere. How do I know this? Let me explain. My runningbacks coach was my drivers’ ed instructor. One day when it came my turn to drive, we were traveling on blacktop OO west of Odessa High School. That happened to be on my normal path to home on the farm, so I was very familiar with all the potholes. I made sure I gradually accelerated, keeping both hands on the wheel, darting my eyes on and off the rearview mirror as we approached the first curve. I eased off the gas pedal without touching the brake and made sure I kept the car uniformly positioned between center line and pavement edge. I barely let out a sigh of relief before he growled, “OK, pull over.” Nobody said a word. We exchanged seats and the next nervous 15-and-a-half-year-old got behind the wheel. I sat in the back seat dumbfounded. I replayed what I just did and found no fault. I began wondering if coach was revealing some prejudice against me for some unintended transgression committed during football practice since that was the only other time our paths crossed. The longer I stewed, the more convinced I’d somehow lost my spot on the jayvee lineup because of something dumb I just committed behind the wheel. Most probably I would flunk out of driver’s ed. This was serious, disqualifying me from every car insurance discount on the market. What parents would ever allow you to take a driver’s license exam if you flunked driver’s ed? Coach stopped my driving

without explanation. I was so embarrassed. The next wannabe took over the wheel; I was banished to the back seat after driving less than a mile and only one curve. It wasn’t like I had banged into something attempting to parallel park ...or had frozen at the 4-way stop not knowing when it’s the right time for which one of us to proceed ...or had forgotten the direction to rotate my steering wheel when asked to park on water plant hill.

O the E itor s S ike

by Darryl Wilkinson

Now, this was before cell phones, kiddos, so no, it wasn’t as if I was trying to text while driving. And I didn’t break coach’s only non-negotiable rule: No radio music at any time he was seated in the car. I always made sure I never touched the dial while he was around. So, I reasoned, it must have been speed. Speed is an issue when you’re almost 16 and yearning to drive. Too much or too little can get you in trouble. The key is moderation. If you go too fast, you are a danger. If you go too slow, you are a hindrance and a danger. Doing anything at the wrong speed means doing less than your best. This I already knew. You learn lots of such stuff while driving tractors and farm equipment over the roadways to and from the fields. It didn’t hurt that my family also worked dump trucks, meaning I already had a couple of summers driving pit trucks inside the quarry where a driver’s license wasn’t absolutely required. So, I just didn’t get it. Why did he cut my driving time so short? As we piled out of the car upon returning to school, I turned and somehow mumbled something to which he replied: “Speed bump.” My quizzical reaction prompted him to expand a bit more. “Well, speed bump ...and then the curve.” Evidently, he took favorable notice on my decision to roll the

wheels on the passenger side of the car through an opening of a speed bump strategically positioned on the street leading from the school. That meant his side of the car was hardly jolted, and the half-empty Coke kept balance on his thigh unperturbed. The same test applied on the curve. It was pure luck that I happened to roll through the length of that long blacktop curve with just enough speed providing the equilibrium to negate centrifugal force. The Coke didn’t spill, but the test actually only proved how much coach was bored. Coach curtly explained how he used sunlight gleaming off the Coke can rim to measure whether I was driving through the curve at precisely the right speed. Then he asked me something about dad’s dump trucks, which didn’t really make much sense to me -- not now and certainly not at the time. I shoved off knowing I was already late for my next class, still confused. All I knew for certain was that, good or bad, I had done my best. I wasn’t exactly sure how impressed coach was with all this until the grade cards came out at the end of the quarter. When I saw the “A” grade, I thought about the Coke can and how lucky life can be on the smooth side of a speed bump. Lots of measures in life are determined by the strangest coincidences. It could be that driver’s ed eventually was dropped from many school curriculums for reasons like my Coke can “A.” I’d like to brag that I was always a careful driver, but grade cards and terms like “careful” are subjective and relative even within proper context. Sometimes when somebody says you’re good, you know you’re just lucky. It didn’t hurt that one of the girls in our drivers’ ed group rounded a turn too sharply, pounding the car’s undercarriage into a concrete culvert. With the frame bent, the car was totaled and not to be replaced until the next school year. Thereafter, I don’t know where coach went to drink his Cokes. Sometimes I think on this, whenever life throws another curve at me. After all, the smooth side of a speed bump is just taking the time to know for certain you’re doing the best you can.

Greetings from Poosey. God bless Herb. Somebody’s got to. I guess I started it. “Herbie, summer’s coming to a close. Let’s have one last fling.” “Freida, I ain’t flung in years.” “I mean a vacation. Just a few days.” “I hate airplanes.” “We won’t have to fly, Herb. Let’s find someplace we can drive to in a day’s time and just relax a bit.” “I was relaxed until you started talkin’ about goin’ somewhere. Whatta you say we save the vacation money and just take a couple laps around Wal-Mart?” Herb’s sense of adventure is right up there with his ability to double-park. “Come on, Herb. You know you enjoy little trips once you get started. How about a couple of days in the Iowa’s Amana Colonies?” “Schnitzel.” “Watch your language.” “Every place in the Amanas serves schnitzel and spaetzle dumplings. I refuse to eat anything I can’t spell.” “Okay, how about St. Louis?” “The Cards are having a lousy year.” “There’s more to St. Louis than the Cardinals, Herb.” “There is?” “Museums! Art Galleries! The Arch!” “Dull, dull, and duller. Besides, I hate driving in traffic. Let’s go to Branson.” “We just got back from Branson two months ago. And how can you hate traffic and want to go to Branson?” “Just get behind a Baptist Church bus and go wherever they go. Branson’s full of Baptists and busses.” Herb uses the Branson gambit on me every time I want to travel. He knows that it’s a nice enough place but it drives me crazy. “Herb, the last time we traveled to Branson we went to the Branson Breakfast Jamboree then the Branson Lunch Jamboree and topped off the day with the Dinner Jamboree ala Branson. Every time I go with you to Branson I come home Jamboree-ed to death. I start hearing banjos in my sleep.” “Nashville. We could go to Nashville.” “That’s just Branson with a thyroid condition. Herb, there’s more to life than Hank Williams.” Herb gasped. “I’m glad your mother’s not alive to hear that blasphemy.” I tried to explain to the old poop that at our age we may only have a few good traveling years left, and with his attitude I was of a mind to shorten his years on earth considerably. It’s the age-old conundrum of a wife who wants to get out and go and a husband who’d rather sit and become a part of his easy chair. He gripes up until the day we leave, and then at the end of the vacation he wants to stay a couple days longer. Herb’s idea of heaven is a backyard barbecue with Buck Owens singing, “I’ve Got a Tiger by the Tale” through the loud speakers. I’ve never understood what it is about the male anatomy that is so adverse to movement of any kind. So, I looked at this old man that I’d mistakenly married all those many years ago and picked up the phone. “Who are you calling, Freida?” “The rock quarry.” “What?” “I’m ordering a load of sand. Gonna have them dump it in our living room then I’ll drag in a couple of lawn chairs. We’ll just sit on our little artificial beach sipping decaffeinated martinis while wearing our sunglasses and watching the Travel Channel. I’ve still got that old tanning lamp in the basement and I’ll let you wear whichever pair of your awful shorts you like as long as nobody comes to the door.” “I’d rather watch Fox News.” “This is a vacation, Herb. Instead of fake news we’ll have a fake holiday. If you won’t go on vacation, then I’ll just bring the vacation to you.” You ever ‘round Poosey, stop by. We may not answer the door but you’ll enjoy the trip.

Why should we celebrate Labor Day? by D r. H . W ade P aris

The slothful or immature might wonder, “Why on earth would you celebrate work, i.e. why Labor Day?” It’s a logical question, since much of our time is spent wishing it away, “I can’t wait ‘til quitting time; I’m ready for my vacation; thank God it’s Friday; dreadful back to work Monday; only X more years to retirement,” and so forth. Wikipedia answers this way, “Labor Day is a public holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September to honor the contributions workers have made to the

strength, prosperity, laws and well-being of our Country.” For many, work is simply a necessity. Someone has to “bring home the bacon.” Someone has to cook the meals. Someone needs to mow the grass. Someone built my residence. Someone must grow the food I eat. All of this, and more, is true; but it is a less than positive attitude toward work. Since much of our life is spent at our labor, it will help to develop a positive attitude toward our work. Give thanks if you have a job---not everyone does. Give

thanks if you are able to work -- not everyone can. It’s a paradox; but when one can spend all their time at play, then play quickly becomes work. A retiree spent his working years using every opportunity to go fishing. He thought when he retired he would joyfully fish every day. Accordingly, he purchased thousands of dollars of fishing equipment, including a very expensive boat. Several months after retirement, a friend asked, “How goes the fishing?” He replied, “I got tired of it. I don’t fish much nowadays.”

Perhaps, more paradoxically, one’s labor can become play. Some people say, “I like what I do so much it’s hard to believe I get paid for it. I preached at a small struggling church. A colleague asked, “Did you get paid?” “Yes,” I answered, “but I would gladly have done it free.” If your employment is unpleasant, you may find these words unrealistic. The Bible promises, “We can do all things through Christ.” (Philippians 4:13) Take God at His word. Ask Him to turn your work into joyous service.

Great American Total Eclipse at Gallatin, MO

Solar eclipse dazzles young eyes “I t’s getting dark… it’s getting darker…i t’s dark…t he street lights came on! …i t’s getting lighter…i t’s getting light…i t’s light again…t hank you, God! ” So chanted some of the children at Searcy R -5 Elementary School who came out on the playground to view the Great American Solar Eclipse of Monday, Aug. 2 1, 2 0 17 . T he sky was cloudy — it had even sprinkled rain a half hour earlier — but still the lingering darkness in the middle of a summer day was impressive in its own slightly scary, hauntingly hushed, and totally beautiful way.

North Daviess R-3 first and second graders waited patiently on the lawn to witness the eclipse

T he local event was made possible by the D aviess County Library; shown are B rooke Lee, Margie R ichey, Amy McMahon and D irector Allison Spidle.

Vicki Burns selected for Yard of Month Vicki Burns’ yard at 511 Park Street in Gallatin has been selected for Yard of the Month for August by the Gallatin Garden Club. Mrs. Burns said there was hardly any type of flower she didn’t enjoy. Her large lawn has roses, daisies and daylilies. There are both annuals and perennials; a few ornaments decorate the garden. Her husband Ron passed away last year. He helped her with weeding, and without him, the yard is not as immaculate this year. Mrs. Burns has lived at the house for 39 years this fall. There was not a flower to be found for

the first 25 years. Then, all of a sudden, she decided it was the thing to do. She picked up gardening as a hobby and has been doing it ever since. Now it keeps her busy, along with her other hobbies of cooking and decorating 10 Christmas trees during the holiday season. One of her favorite plants is the peony. Her grandfather planted the peonies in her mother’s yard. When her mother’s house was torn down, Mrs. Burns transplanted the peonies to her own yard. The peonies have survived for over 100 years.

Man hurt when 4-wheeler wrecks

Eclipse over: started with library class Good-sized crowds attended each of the Daviess County Library informational sessions last week on Thursday and Friday, Aug. 1718. The sessions were designed to be short primers on the Aug. 21 eclipse. Sessions were sponsored by the Daviess County Library in partnership with the NASA@mylibrary initiative and the American Library Association.

Winston adopts 2017 property tax rate The Winston Board of Trustees adopted the 2017 property tax rate at the state authorized maximum of .4978 for the General Fund, and .3071 for the Street Fund during their meeting held Aug. 7. The income and expense report and the year-to-date report were approved and bills paid. The utilities clerk distributed a new list of delinquent customers, including four due for shutoff. The clerk was informed of two people moving out within the month. Melvin McFee reported everything was working properly as far as sewer maintenance and there were no new problems. Tracy Filley, street maintenance, stated a car needed to be moved in order to properly grade the streets. The owners will be asked to move the car first, and if nothing is done, then the clerk will send a letter. Mr. Filley also informed the board of a washout at Y Highway and 3rd Street.

The clerk is to let MODOT know about the problem. During Ordinance Enforcement, the board discussed two dogs seen in town that may have gotten out of the dog holding facility within the city limits. The village clerk informed the board of a broken door handle at the Town Hall. Emily Crow expressed her interest in the trustee position for the village. After board questions and discussion, the board decided to wait until the next meeting to vote on the appointment of a new trustee. The next board meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 4. The above are the unapproved minutes of the Aug. 7 meeting of the Village of Winston Board of Trustees. Trustees present were Arvella Eaton, Kaitlyn Phillips, Brenda Goll and Nichole Gregornik. Others present: Amber White, Melvin McFee, Emily Crow, and Tracy Filley.

Stephen Jameson, 46, McFall, was seriously injured in an accident that happened at about 8:30 a.m. on Aug. 19 in Gentry County. According to a report by the highway patrol, Mr. Jameson was working cattle. He was driving a Suzuki four-wheeler northbound on Lone Rock Trail, approximately three miles northwest of McFall. He lost control on the gravel road and the four-wheeler went off the east side of the roadway and overturned, ejecting him. The four-wheeler came to rest on its wheels facing southeast. Mr. Jameson was not wearing a safety device. He was taken by Grand River Ambulance to Northwest Medical Center in Albany, and then immediately transferred to KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., by Lifenet Helicopter. The four-wheeler had minor damage. The accident was investigated by Tpr. T.B. Heintz, assisted by Gentry County Sheriff’s Office.

Blood needed Gallatin will hold a blood drive from 3-7 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 28, at the First Baptist Church, 511 West Richardson Street. The American Red Cross urges blood donors to give in the final weeks of summer to help overcome a chronic summer blood shortage. As a special thank you, those who come out to give blood or platelets with the Red Cross now through Aug. 31 will be emailed a $5 Target eGiftCard. Appointments can be scheduled by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). Or at the online health history questionnaire.

Iris: Divide & conquer now for beautiful kingdom in spring Most of the year, irises grow easily without a care in the world. Rarely do they need attention to thrive. But gardeners should give the carefree beauty their undivided attention in August. By dividing and replanting clumps that have grown too large, gardeners can increase spring displays of the bearded beauty, said University of Missouri Extension horticulturist David Trinklein. In Greek mythology, the goddess Iris was associated with the rainbow. Few flowers come in as many colors or bring such joy on a spring day. But when iris clumps become large and overcrowded, they bloom less. Rejuvenate clumps by dividing rhizomes into small sections. A rhizome is a thickened stem that grows horizontally at ground level or just below the soil’s surface, said Trinklein. They grow slowly during July and August. Dig, divide and transplant during these months, Trinklein added. Divide iris every three to four years. Trinklein prefers a sharp knife to trowels, spades or dull knives that may open wounds that allow disease to enter. Disease-infected rhizomes should be separated from healthy roots to prevent spreading the disease. “Division of iris is the only way to propagate the plant to ensure that new plants are genetically the same as the parent plant,” said Trinklein. Iris can be produced from seeds, but color and form may differ and disappoint.

Tall bearded irises include a class known as reblooming irises. These cultivars bloom in both the spring and fall. They need regular division to rebloom, Trinklein said. Don’t expect blooms in the fall right after you divide clumps in August. When planting, place rhizomes horizontally at or just below the soil’s surface. Rhizome tops should be visible. Spread out roots and point them downward. Three rhizomes may be set close together so they radiate outward if they are small. Space rhizomes 18 to 24 inches apart. Cut leaves back to 2-3 inches when replanting. This is especially important if iris leaf spot, a common disease that weakens

and disfigures plants, is present. Keep your iris bed clean, Trinklein said. Gather up and pull off any dead or diseased leaves. Before flowering, apply a fungicide containing chlorothalonil or thiophanate-methyl as its active ingredient to prevent or reduce iris leaf spot. Follow label directions when using any pesticide. Bacterial soft rot is another common iris disease. The leaf base and rhizome of infected plants develop into a soft, rotten mass with a foul odor. Dig and destroy infected plants and remove them from the garden. Trim damaged rhizomes back to sound, healthy tissue and expose to the sun for at least two days before replanting. Do not replant iris back into the spot where the diseased plant was located. Iris borer is an insect that feeds on the rhizomes of iris and may help spread soft rot. Clean up debris and dead leaves in late fall and very early spring to reduce the number of iris borer eggs. Near bloom time, use an insecticide labeled for iris borer control, such as acephate or spinosad, to prevent borer damage on leaves and rhizomes. Look for a new location for irises that do not flower well. Irises need sun and well-drained soil. They do not grow well in shady areas. This makes them subject to diseases and other problems. High soil fertility is not required, but irises benefit from a complete fertilizer high in phosphorus and potassium and lower in nitrogen.

Birth

T at e H ayes W il k in s o n Scott and Michelle Wilkinson of Cameron are proud to announce the birth of their son, Tate Hayes, at 2:31 p.m. on Aug. 18, 2017. Tate weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces, and was 20-1/4 inches long. He is welcomed home by his brother Tucker, 5, and sister Emerson, 3. Maternal grandparents are Darrell and Rhonda Chadwick of Gallatin. Maternal great-grandparents are Shelba Barnett of Gallatin and Lewis Chadwick of Jameson. Paternal grandparents are Darryl and Elizabeth Wilkinson of Gallatin. Paternal greatgrandmother is Dorothy Wilkinson of Warrensburg.

The Missouri Public Service Commission has approved a request filed by KCP&L-Greater Missouri Operations Company (GMO) to change the fuel adjustment charge (FAC) on the monthly bills of its electric customers. According to the filing, a residential customer using 1,000 kWh a month will see a monthly charge of $0.46. This represents an increase of approximately $2.31 to a GMO residential customer’s monthly bill above the prior FAC. The change in the FAC will take effect on September 1, 2017. GMO provides electric service to approximately 316,600 customers in Andrew, Atchison, Barton, Bates, Benton, Buchanan, Carroll, Cass, Cedar, Clay, Clinton, Dade, Daviess, DeKalb, Gentry, Grundy, Harrison, Henry, Holt, Jackson, Johnson, Lafayette, Livingston, Mercer, Nodaway, Pettis, Platte, Ray, St. Clair, Vernon and Worth counties. The FAC change reflects fuel and purchased power costs during the six month period of December 2016 through May 2017. It also reflects the company’s FAC true-up.

Deaths

C h ar l es R ay m ond W al k er Charles Raymond Walker, 93, Gallatin, died Aug. 20, 2017, at Cameron Regional Hospital. The body was cremated under the direction of Whitaker-Eads Funeral Home in Trenton. Private services will be held at a later date. Mr. Walker was born on May 24, 1924, in Grundy County, the son of Charles and Irene Walker.

Extension guide offers help on hiring, keeping farm employees University of Missouri Extension recently released its 2017 Farm Labor Guide. Finding and keeping dependable workers is one of the largest challenges today for farm owners and managers, says MU Extension agricultural economist Joe Horner. “As farms grow in size, learning to recruit, manage and retain high-quality employees becomes even more critical.” The free online publication is MU Extension’s response to farmers’ requests for a simple, Missouri-specific guide to navigating the complexities of human resources management, Horner says. The guide is available as a downloadable PDF file at agebb. missouri.edu/commag/farmlabor. Horner, MU Extension agricultural economist Ryan Milhollin and agribusiness consultant Alice Roach created the guide to help employers make decisions that lead to a quality workforce and satisfied employees. The guide divides the employment process into six segments: recruitment; hiring; onboarding, training and mentoring; operations; retention; and termination. Horner says the guide gives a systematic list to identify and hire suitable employees. The guide covers safety, employee compensation and other human resources protocols. Horner says it is important to decide on the needs of the operation before the employee search begins. Does the farm or business need full-time or part-time help? What are the hours that the employee is needed? Is the work seasonal or year-round? After the employer makes these decisions, Horner recommends creating a formal job description. This helps job seekers decide if they qualify for a job or have an interest. It also helps the employer track whether applicants qualify, need training and if goals are met after the hire. It sets expectations of the employee’s role and relationships with coworkers, vendors and others. The guide outlines six steps to writing a job description and tells where to publicize job postings for best results. It also offers advice on interviewing, including a list of acceptable and unacceptable questions, and general work rules such as overtime. The guide discusses subjects such as background, drug and reference checks, as well as needed paperwork, taxes and employment laws. It follows through with options for training and mentoring. The guide lists numerous free online resources to recruitment and hiring from extension specialists across the country.

Bulldogs control field position in 42-13 opener win over Panthers Offense will always score the lion’s share of touchdowns, but Gallatin’s defense and special teams showed Friday night how to help things along. The Bulldogs took an early 14-0 lead with solid all-around play and held off a North Platte third quarter rally to prevail in their season opener, 42-13. The Bulldogs made the most of field position, courtesy of Colin Beck’s pinpoint punting, to grab

a two-score lead. Beck twice pinned the Panthers inside their 10-yard line in the opening quarter and Gallatin was able to turn field position around and score twice, on a Cole McBee one-yard plunge and Corbin Toney run set up by a Gabe Cole forced fumble and Noah Engel recovery. Adrian Hernandez was nothing but perfect on the night as he hit all six extra points. Defensive play in the opening frame also featured a Tom Crouse tackle for loss and Haden Bradford stop of a screen pass for a three-yard loss. The Panthers found the end zone in the second quarter when quarterback Joel Smyser threaded a pass between a pair of Bulldog defenders to Austin Snook for a 48-yard score. Defense again set the table for a GHS touchdown when Crouse forced a fumble and Caleb Boyd recovered on the NP 18-yard line. Toney took a quick handoff and blasted down to the one. McBee capped the two-play drive by following behind tackle Thomas King into the end zone. The Bulldogs upped their lead to 28-7 just before intermission. McBee connected with Gaven Gray for 37 yards down the sideline to the Panther 10. A McBee to Boyd pass completed the series. A 56-yard scoring run by Remington Wilson on the first play of the second half cut Gallatin’s lead to 28-13. After the Bulldogs were forced to punt, it took another defensive stand to derail the Panther rally. Facing fourth and eight from Gallatin’s 11yard line, North Platte failed to connect on a pass into the end zone. With time running off the clock in the third quarter, the Panthers tried a fake punt that backfired when Graydee Rains tackled the

Gray carried for 13 yards to the one and Toney finished off the series with his second TD of the night. The lone fourth quarter score by Gallatin came when McBee was chased from the pocket to the sideline, but lofted a soft pass to Boyd alone in the corner of the end zone. The Bulldogs have but a short time to savor their victory as they prepare to face defending Class 1 champion Hamilton on the road this Friday. Hamilton knocked off Maysville, 41-22, last week to start its title defense. The Hornets look to have found a replacement for all-state quarterback Jaren Richmond, who departed last May. Senior Caden Brown stepped into the starting role Friday night and threw for 248 yards and four touchdowns

Armyworm march by W ayn e Fl an ary, R eg io n al A g ro n o mis t Reports of fall armyworm have been occurring in south Missouri and we have now received calls regarding damage in northwest Missouri. Damage from this pest can appear all of a sudden. This pest prefers fescue and orchardgrass. Several generations of the armyworm can occur in Missouri each year. Identifying characteristics of the insect larvae include four black spots or bumps on the top of each segment of the worm. The bumps on the last segment are arranged in a square pattern. For more information, contact Wayne Flanary at 660-446-3724 or Andy Luke at 660-425-6434.

state (matching) funding that has been approved by the legislature. “The funding has been approved by the state legislature twice now; it’s what we need to make Otter Lake economically feasible for our county, rather than borrowing the $4 million,” said Ms. Youtsey. We have good support at the state level but those funds probably won’t be made available until the county receives its permits to construct the lake. It’s a process, from a, to b, to c. All of the major players are motivated and ready to go — the USDA, NRCS, Green Hills Community Block Development. The land itself has been bought and closed on. The engineering and design is complete. The funds are ready and available and as soon as they are approved and the 404 permit goes through, the county will be ready to dig the lake and construct the dam.” The Second Step: Water Plant and Pumping Station Little Otter Creek Wholesale Water Commission was established to provide for the funding, financing, construction, acquisition, and operation of a wholesale water system in Caldwell County. That system includes a water treatment plant, distribution system and supply contract. Funding for the Wholesale Water Commission to build the water plant cannot be applied for until the lake is a realty; that is, all the state and federal permits are approved, and construction of the lake has started.

Bryan Savage performs Sept. 17 Chillicothe native and world renowned saxophonist/flutist will be performing at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 17, at the United Methodist Church’s Christian Life Center. The event is a fundraiser for the Chillicothe Area Arts Council. Tickets are a $15 donation. Reserved seat tickets are available by calling the arts office at 660-646-1173. Deadline for reserved tickets is at 5 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 15. Doors open to reserved ticket purchasers at 1:30 p.m. Box office purchasers will be admitted at 1:45 p. m. Nothing says entertainment like the cool sound of a saxophone. And, no one does it better than Bryan Savage. Bryan knows how to blend music and comedy, as he played sax on Steve Martin’s hit single “King Tut” for which he received a gold record. A veteran studio musician, Bryan has toured the United States, Europe, Japan and Canada with Al Stewart, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Amazing Rhythm Aces and John Denver.

of building a water processing plant and a distribution system that would sell water to its members. As of this time there are five members (stakeholders) of the Wholesale Water Commission, which are PWSD #1 of Caldwell County, PWSD#2 of Caldwell County, PWSD#3 of Caldwell County along with the cities of Braymer and Hamilton. The First Step: The Lake The Little Otter Lake Project began in 1990. Not surprisingly, it was the summer of an extreme drought. Much effort has gone into making the project a realization, including numerous government regulations and permits. Progress has been made and the lake is expected to break ground in about two years. All of the property for the 345 acre lake has been purchased. Federal funding is in place. Revenue from a sales tax Caldwell County residents passed a decade ago will help pay for the construction. The county and its partners have accumulated $5.45 million toward the project. The Natural Resource Conservation Services (NRCS) added another $1.3 million through the Regional Conservation Partnership Program. Only a couple of things remain to be done before Caldwell County can start digging its Lake — An application for the Corps of Engineers for a 404 permit is being processed right now; And the county is still awaiting approximately $4 million in

will provide an estimated yield of 1.3 million gallons of water per day. The Water Commission is in the process of finding out if the Reservoir can support and provide potable water for all the customers that would like to be included in LOCWWC. “Little Otter Lake has X amount of potential,” said Ms. Youtsey. “The lake can only produce so many gallons. The Water Commission needs information from each district to determine who, where and what the demands are going to be. That information would include hydraulics, customer studies, etc., in order to proceed with an engineering study.” Ms. Youtsey believes the issue is important to the entire area, to all of Northwest Missouri, as there is not a district that doesn’t need upgrades and increased water. “This is a vital project for this area,” she said. “Our water plants and our water systems, the reservoirs and wells are maxed out in age and capacity. The old reservoirs are silting in and the water tables are going down.”

University of Missouri Extension agronomy specialist Wayne Flanary says about 160 acres of soybean in northwestern Missouri show symptoms of sclerotina stem rot. The MU Plant Diagnostic Clinic confirmed the disease, which can cause large losses in fields with high yield potential. Also known as white mold, sclerotina stem rot is rare in Missouri. This stem and root disease is usually found in the northern part of the soybean belt. MU Extension soybean specialist Bill Wiebold says he found it in Shelby County in northeastern Missouri as long as 10 years ago. In the MU Extension publication “Soybean Diseases,” retired MU plant pathologist Laura Sweets says the white mold first shows as a wilting of leaves in the upper canopy. “Leaves may have a gray-green or off-color and wilted appearance,” she writes. White mold often grows on stems and leaves. The fungus may move to seeds and pods. The disease favors moderate canopy temperatures (less than 82 degrees) and frequent rainfalls that cause high humidity in the canopy. Research shows that sclero-

tina stem rot can remain in soil for years, Wiebold says. Seed can be contaminated with sclerotia, the fungus’s reproductive structures. Wiebold’s colleagues at Iowa State University say it may take up to two years for sclerotina to show up from infected seed. Iowa researchers recommend planting two years of corn to reduce viable seeds, although there are no guarantees. Do not plant soybean after common bean, sunflower, canola or other susceptible crops. There are effective fungicides, but spray timing is critical to success. Apply fungicides during flowering (R1 and R2 development stages), Wiebold says. Harvest infected fields last, and clean out the combine to prevent spread. Select resistant varieties and maintain good weed control, he says. Wiebold also recommends no-till production for three to four years to reduce the number of viable sclerotia near the soil surface. Do not confuse this disease with one caused by sclerotium rolfsii, a southern disease, Wiebold says. He advises against searching the internet for “white mold” and suggests searching for “sclerotina stem rot” instead.

Grain Belt Express application denied The Missouri Public Service Commission has denied an application filed by Grain Belt Express Clean Line LLC (GBE) seeking Commission authority and a certificate of convenience and necessity (CCN) to construct, own, operate, control, manage and maintain a high voltage, direct current transmission line and associated facilities within eight Missouri counties (Buchanan, Clinton, Caldwell, Carroll, Chariton, Randolph, Monroe and Ralls). The Commission determined it lacks the statutory authority to grant a CCN because GBE failed to obtain all county assents necessary for a CCN as required by a Missouri Western District Court of Appeals decision in a recent Ameren Transmission Company of Illinois (ATXI) CCN case involving a proposed transmission line in northeast Missouri. The ATXI case involved the appeal of a Public Service Commission order. In that case, ATXI had not yet received approval from the relevant county commissions at the time the Commission issued its order on April 27, 2016. The Commission granted ATXI a CCN concluding that such county assents were required by Commission rules and by Section 229.100, RSMo. The Commission’s decision imposed a condition that ATXI obtain all necessary county assents before the CCN became effective. On appeal, the Missouri Western District Court of Appeals determined the Commission lacked authority to grant a CCN without evidence that ATXI had received the relevant county as-

sents and that setting a condition for obtaining the assents later did not satisfy this requirement. The Commission disagreed with the legal analysis and conclusions in that opinion and asked the Supreme Court of Missouri to accept transfer of the case. The Supreme Court denied transfer, and the Commission’s ATXI order was vacated. “There are no material factual distinctions between Ameren Transmission Co. and this GBE case that would permit the Commission to reach a different result on the question of statutory authority to grant a CCN in this case,” said the Commission. “Under the Court’s direction set forth in Ameren Transmission Co.,” said the Commission, “the Commission cannot lawfully issue a CCN to GBE until the company submits evidence that it has obtained the necessary county assents under Section 229.100.” The Commission’s vote was 5 to 0. A concurrence was issued along with the Commission’s order explaining that four of the five commissioners found there was a need for the service offered by the GBE project, that GBE was qualified to provide the proposed service, that GBE had the financial ability to provide the service, that GBE’s proposal was economically feasible, and that the project would have been in the public interest. Accordingly, those commissioners indicated they would have approved the GBE application but for the Western District Court of Appeals’ ATXI opinion.

It was exciting to see the children collect this week’s missionary offering and to hear Ina McFee’s report. Tim Johnson shared a short devotion and encouraged everyone to share their prayer requests and trust in God’s promises to hear us. Many with special needs came forward to be anointed with oil as suggested in James 5:14. The praise and worship time was led by Zoe Smith and Mona Roberts. Some of the songs were “We Come to Worship Him”, “Come Holy Spirit”, and “This is Holy Ground.” Pastor Smith referred to Exodus 3:1-8. The message was “God Wants Your Attention.” F air view Fairview opened with prayers for Scott Estep, Dorothy Olsen, Stacey Pettit, Jim Ragan, Rachel Pinerio, Annie Hamilton, Ina Cavness, Lisa McCormick, Alvin Taylor, Kay Cox, Leo and Beverly Lang, Marsha Vanisko, Lavell Garrett, Randy Ott, Joan Perkins, Bonnie Bridgeman, Clyde Milliken, Ron Jefferies, Jerry Steele, Marilyn Clark, Melinda Uthe, Carl and Renee Hullinger, Corey Beard, Dennis House, Jim Bird and prayer by Vanda Davis.

In Matthew 21 and 22, Jesus told a series of parables aimed primarily at identifying, defining, and condemning hypocrisy. The Parable of the Two Sons, the Parable of the Wicked Tenants (more accurately the Parable of the Landowner), and the Parable of the Wedding Feast each teach us about the terrible dangers of hypocrisy. However, our always gracious and forgiving God stood ready to forgive. In the final parable, Jesus pointed out the great danger inherent in hypocrisy, which is that the hypocrite fools himself. The hypocrite believes that he has trusted Christ when in reality he has trusted himself. In Matthew 22:1-14, Jesus told a parable about a king who gave a wedding feast for his son. The guests received at least four invitations but turned the invitations down for various trivial reasons. Verse three plainly states the real reason: they were unwilling to come. My own personal observation of this verifies that assessment. People, myself included, generally find time, money, and resources to do that which they are willing to do, i.e. what they want to do. Because those who had been invited refused to come, the king made an interesting pronouncement. He declared that they were not worthy to attend. Obviously, there can only be one reason why they were not worthy. It was because they had refused the invitation. There is another important aspect to this parable. It describes a man (a hypocrite) who attempted to attend the wedding feast without accepting the king's offer for clean clothes. This type of hypocrisy is the most dangerous of all, at least to the man himself. He has fooled himself into thinking that he can do something to clean himself up, to make himself presentable to the king and the king's son. Jesus did not tell us how the hypocrite tried to clean himself up but it does not matter. The truth is that nothing except the undeserved, free grace of God will work. Thus, there was no need for Jesus to name any of the ways that man tries make himself presentable to God. Nothing else will work, not circumcision, not baptism, not keeping the Ten Commandments, not praying to Mecca, not bathing in the Ganges, not attending church, not sending money to a television evangelist, not following the Noble Eight-Fold Path, nor any other human effort. God's free offer of grace found in His Son, Jesus, is the only way to be made presentable to Him. The man who refused the wedding clothes provided by the king found himself muzzled, tied hand and foot, and cast into a place of utter darkness and torment. Matthew 22:14 concludes the parable with an unusual declaration, “For many are called but few are chosen.” (NASU) The testimony of this parable is that God has invited every person to the Great Marriage Supper of the Lamb which will take place at the end of time. In spite of the fact that every person has received multiple invitations, many have been declared unworthy based solely on their unwillingness to accept the invitation. In addition there are some who have fooled themselves into thinking that they have accepted the invitation when in reality they have not. Because they have tried to add some effort of their own to God's free gift of grace they have rendered themselves unacceptable. Many are called but few are chosen. There are two beings that make the choice in this matter. God has made his choice. He has invited everyone. The other choice is made by humans. Each person must choose to accept or reject God's invitation of salvation by grace through Jesus alone. What choice have you made?

Missouri looking to bounce back after two losing seasons B y B enj am in H er r ol d Being a head football coach in the Southeastern Conference is like being a gazelle in an African safari documentary. You’re always at risk, always on guard against others trying to take you out. In this conference of berserk fan bases and talentladen rosters, coaches don’t get too comfortable, whether you’re Missouri’s Barry Odom, a second-year coach looking to make his mark, or Alabama’s Nick Saban, firmly entrenched on his houndstooth-patterned throne in Tuscaloosa. Some urgency lingers in Missouri’s hot August air for this season. The Tigers sputtered to 5-7 in 2015, Gary Pinkel’s last season, winning just one conference game. Then came a 4-8 mark last year, Odom’s first as the head coach. The program needs to find a way to get back

to at least 6-6 and make a bowl game. Can they? If you’re looking to hope, and why not be hopeful in August, Missouri’s offense could be pretty good this year. The Tigers jumped from 13.6 points per game in 2015 to 31.4 last year, and they return several key offensive contributors. Junior quarterback Drew Lock made strides last year, throwing for 3,399 yards. Of course, the ferocity of opposing defenses matters. Lock threw for 12 touchdowns and no interceptions against Eastern Michigan, Delaware State and Middle Tennessee, as opposed to 11 touchdowns and 10 interceptions against SEC competition. Missouri also returns a 1,000yard rusher in running back Damarea Crockett and a 1,000yard receiver in J’Mon Moore. The Tigers also have a much

more experienced offensive line this year than they did in 2016. Defensively, Missouri was surprisingly awful last year. After yielding just 16.2 points per game in 2015, the Tigers gave up 31.5 points per game last year. Missouri gave up 35 points per game in SEC play. The switch to a hurry-up offense made the defense defend more plays and take shorter sideline breaks, but the rise in yards per play allowed from 3.3 to 5.3 can’t all be blamed on the offense’s tempo. Missouri needs big seasons out of Terry Beckner Jr. and Marcell Frazier on the defen-

sive line, and safeties Anthony Sherrils and Cam Hilton to help stabilize the secondary. So can Missouri make a bowl, or even contend for the wide-open SEC East? As always, the schedule plays a big role. If you’re like me and spend big chunks of the college football offseason staring longingly at schedules, you probably noticed Missouri opens with four straight home games. The Tigers have a chance to grab some early momentum. If they can manage a hot start during that Faurot-riffic September, then games at Georgia (Oct. 14) and home vs Florida (Nov. 4) and Tennessee (Nov. 11) will have

huge SEC East ramifications. In five seasons in the SEC, Missouri has eschewed the middle ground, winning five games or less or 11 games or more every year. But this year feels like a team that could push into the 7 or 8 win range if the defense improves. That would be a great step forward.
