Gallatin closer to purchase of new bucket truck via non-profit ‘Friends’ Gallatin’s Public Works Director Mark Morey has received notification from the United States Department of Agriculture’s Rural Development Program that a purchase order can be placed for the new bucket truck. The bucket truck will cost approximately $100,000. This particular USDA program will only fund a non-profit organization. The Friends of Gallatin was created in 2017 as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization by action of the Gallatin Board of Aldermen.

Harvest picks up after last week’s rain Rain in some areas slowed harvest across the state last week, according to the Missouri Crop Progress and Condition Report by the United States Department of Agriculture. Statewide, the temperature averaged 61.8 degrees, 3.7 degrees above normal. In the northwest district, 0.65 inches of rain has fallen in the month of September, compared to the normal 4.24 inches. For the 2017 calendar year, the county is about 8.68 inches behind normal. There were 3.8 days suitable for fieldwork for the week ending Oct. 15. Corn harvested for grain was 38% complete, and 22% of the soybeans have been harvested. Pictured is farm work in Daviess County.

The truth that hurts by Freida Marie Crump

Making waterfall memories You may not have noticed but I skipped our visit last week. We went on vacation — hooray! Thanks to our very competent staff, I went AWOL — not even writing a column. Instead, we used a full 10-day absence from work to strike one thing off our “bucket list.” We experienced Niagara Falls. Yesterday I read how last weekend one family’s dream vacation at Niagara Falls turned into a nightmare. Police say a 10-year-old boy was on the Canadian side of the falls when his family decided to take a picture of Horseshoe Falls. He was sitting on the railing having his picture taken by his mother when he apparently lost his balance, fell over the railing, and plunged 100 feet, injuring his head. But he’s alive. That’s amazing. Anybody who has endured the “Hurricane Deck” at Cave of the Winds as we did last week or ventured near the cascading waterfalls by tour guide boat must be in awe of such stories of survival. The news has me reliving Niagara Falls. Now look across to page 3. Notice that our Congressman writes about the “War on Coal.” That prompts another vivid vacation memory. We were drifting along, lost on some blacktop location after departing from a state park in Pennsylvania. The unpredictable sometimes serves up such blessings. Liz had her head down, punching away on her cell phone held over a lap covered by sundry and confusing maps. We were atop a ridge and she was determined to make progress while the internet access signal was strong. I sat there soaking in a sunset softening all the hard lines of the valley in panorama below. I turned the key in order to park and within moments a couple of deer bounded across our path, oblivious to us, perhaps spooked by the distant popping of guns warming up to a new deer season. Lights began sprouting throughout the valley as the dusk darkened. Sounds became muted. I realized all the movement to the distant far right was actually trucks — what must be huge pit trucks — in motion. When larger stadium lights flipped on, we viewed a working open pit coal mine. Evidently, it is a 24-hour operation. Later, zigzagging through the valleys of West Virginia, we drove by many coal mine operations. Railroad cars filled with coal seemed everywhere. We specu-

lated how important the coal industry must still be to those Americans living there — and to the rest of us in need of electricity. These memories flood into mind and add life into what our Congressman has written. Memories eventually fade, of course. But we’ve dubbed this vacation as “The Waterfalls Trip” and not just because of Niagara.

O the E itor s S ike

by Darryl Wilkinson

If you ever get the chance, you should visit McConnell Mill State Park near Portersville, PA. Yes, you can look it up on the internet and think you’ve got it. I took dozens of pictures; not one of the pictures I took conveys such serene beauty. You have to be there. Maybe we were lucky. We approached the grist mill, water rapids, and covered bridge at McConnell after 5 p.m. (because the website, ...ahem, said it was open until 8). Nobody was there, so we didn’t get a look inside the grist mill. But after hours also meant nobody else was anywhere, meaning we had the bridge and hiking trails, the white-water rapids (and the most convenient parking spot) all to ourselves. The forest canopy at dusk added to the allure. Someday I hope to return. We learned that Jackson’s Mill is part of a 4-H park complex owned and operated by the University of West Virginia. This is where Confederate Gen. Stonewall Jackson grew up. The family’s mill actually once operated two grinding stones, positioned side by side beneath the first floor. Discarded mill stones anchor 4-H buildings and can even be found in building foundations there. Valley Falls State Park is beautiful. The waterfall at Babcock State Park features an authentic mill with a reconstructed overshoot waterwheel that works. Now I’m curious to explore what other states might have to offer in showcasing pioneer grist mills, perhaps even Arkansas. Each setting creates its own post card. My interest in grist mills was first aroused when remnants of the Lewis Mill were discovered on the Grand River near Jameson during bridge construction in the early 1990s. You can read

about the 22 grain mills that once operated in Daviess County on www.DaviessCountyHistoricalSociety.com. But, no mill here operated near waterfalls and rapids. Besides, on this vacation, visiting the waterfall sites were welcome interludes to all the necessary driving. To the younger set, visiting grist mills spells boredom. That’s OK. I know I’m old. But during our train ride down Oil Creek, PA (where the oil industry began) I wasn’t among the whiteheads lulled into a short nap by the swaying passenger cars. At least Liz and I kept awake despite that very slow (and long) 15 mph ride. We packed a lot of other experiences into our 10-day spree. Liz is not only a great wife, mother and co-worker but also a great travel companion. She even allowed me to eat whatever and as much I wanted without comment at all the restaurants we visited — outstanding! While driving through Indiana we stopped by Hoosier Gymnasium where part of the popular movie “Hoosiers” was filmed. The gym isn’t so much different from a kind of hybrid of nearby gyms in use at Jameson and Gilman City. What I find hard to believe is that Gene Hackman was the good guy in that movie now 31 years old. But people haven’t forgotten. Basketball is still being played on the Hoosier Gym hardwoods — 68 varsity games scheduled this coming season involving various high schools from throughout Indiana! The iconic scoreboard has been relocated to the gym’s entry, replaced by modest modern scoreboards. The tour guide explained too many players today were confused by the old scoreboard’s clock face. We could hardly hear our tour guide for all the bouncing basketballs and youngsters playing in the gym. Another couple our age was there while we visited. Their father actually played high school ball on that gym floor about the time the small high school team from Milan (Indiana) improbably won the 1954 state championship, a story upon which the movie was loosely based. We also visited a century-old castle residence owned and operated today as an administration building for a public school district. A library built in one of its turrets has me wanting to remodel our house and Liz wanting to tear up our back yard to grow something similar to the castle’s landscaped garden.

Greetings from Poosey. It’s a puzzlement. Either God fouled up or mankind is to blame, and considering the track record of the Almighty, we might just be the culprits. The problem: as we extend the longevity of our upper torso, our lower halves seem to be wearing out at an alarming rate. While they continue to find new and expensive ways to keep our heart pumping it seems as if everything from the waist on down is breaking down faster and faster. Knee problems, hip problems, legs, feet, toes ...the entire territory south of the beltline is crumbling. We all know folks who are walking around with a half-million-dollar heart and a pair of knees that aren’t worth two cents. I recently traveled with a group of senior folks to a church service some 90 miles away. We were to speak on the grace and mercy of God, but if that faraway congregation could have heard the grunts, groans, and unholy moaning we made while getting out of the car they’d have thought we were a convention of warlocks. We waddled into the church like a flock of groggy ducks. This summer I took a bus tour and it became my job offer my guiding hand at the bottom of the bus steps each time we debarked. After the first climb off I stopped asking if they needed help. I simply said, “Hip, knee, left or right?” I suspect that the culprit might simply be medical science. Our hips and knees are doing just fine but the recent medical strides in keeping our heart, lungs, and brains going as simply out-distancing the advances made in the lower regions. No one’s ever rushed into the emergency department of a hospital and said, “I can’t breathe! Fix my knee!” We’ve developed heart stints, catheters, pumps, transplants, and whole new hearts but we’re still stuck with the same old hip. Like a putting a new engine on a buggy with flat tires. Some experts point to the increased stress put upon our lower limbs by a strenuous regimen of adolescent sports, but I know folks whose entire athletic career has been nothing more taxing than a rousing game of checkers or a few hands of bridge, and they seem to limp as badly as the pounded-upon linebacker. Then, of course, there’s the opposite theory that holds it’s our lack of exercise that causes our walking gear to become so atrophied that we’re simply rusting from disuse. But again, if anecdotal proof is of any use at all, we can all point to folks who’ve walked, run, and sprinted around their entire lives but who now regard their aluminum walker as a third leg. It puts me in mind of the Taylor’s house. Ben and Jerri Taylor moved to Poosey with dreams of redoing Ben’s family home, a charming old Victorian mansion on the west edge of the timber. They stripped the place down, repaired the understructure, then began replacing the siding. About halfway through the project Ben got a job offer in another state and in a single weekend they were gone. They’d started redoing the homestead from the top down and that’s the way it stayed for nearly 15 years ...a bright, shiny new top with a sagging and splintery bottom. Sound like anybody you know? Which brings me back to my original question: Have we messed something up or did God manufacture a great many defective parts? Seemingly disorganized and ill-conceived creatures like the giraffe, the platypus, and the slug have not only survived with their obvious handicaps but have actually flourished. So where did we foul up? When Adam and Eve were driven out of Eden they ran ...and rather swiftly I’d imagine. Methuselah is said to have boogied around some 969 years with no mention of orthopedic surgery. I can’t remember any 11th commandment given to Moses like, “When thou crosseth the Red Sea, thou shalt let the wheelchairs go first!” Of course, the most obvious cause is the fact that our knees and hips weren’t made to carry the load put upon them by the typical American diet. I’ve never liked this explanation because it’s not only terribly insulting, but obviously true and, in this case, the truth really does hurt. You ever ‘round Poosey, stop by. We may not answer the door but you’ll enjoy the trip.

Missouri ranks 42nd in broadband availability by B . J . T an k s l ey

The excitement of moving into our new home had faded to the reality of the work of unpacking. Monday night as my wife and I were unpacking the last boxes in the garage, we were interrupted by the sound of children playing in the street. Our two kids quickly grabbed their bikes to join in the fun. Our previous home hadn’t had many young neighbors, and it was a heartwarming moment to see other kids around and ours so happy to introduce themselves. As the four kids played, four parents stood on the sidewalk exchanging pleasantries and background stories. We talked about the same things all new people do. “Where are you from? What do you do? What brings you to town?”

During our conversations home and work quickly collided. As conversation turned to homes, the topic of Internet came up. In our new town, options are limited, and I was interested to learn the local service of choice. My new friend’s response was, “You’re going to hate me.” Because at his house on the opposite end of the street, he has the choice of two providers while my end of the street is left with only one choice for wired Internet that doesn’t meet the definition of high-speed broadband. Unfortunately, this wasn’t a surprise to me. Working for Missouri Farm Bureau (MFB), I hear of the same situation from our members across the state. That’s why for the past few years rural broadband has been a major topic of conversation.

Nationally, Missouri ranks 42nd in broadband availability, a number becoming real to me in my new small-town home. To get a better idea what the ranking means for people in Missouri, MFB conducted a survey regarding broadband during the 2017 State Fair. The results confirmed what most suspected: 16% of respondents don’t have Internet at their home. Of those who do have Internet, 64% don’t have high-speed broadband and more than 50% are receiving Internet through either cell service or a satellite provider. There was one result that shocked me. When asked about their current Internet services, well over 60% were either dissatisfied or very dissatisfied with their speed, cost, reliability and choice of providers.

‘Coffee Shop Talk’ with FSA Greetings from a new member of the FSA crew! I’d like to take this opportunity to send out a countywide greeting and introduce myself. My name is Mandi Bird and I am the new director of the Daviess County Farm Service Agency. I grew up in the small town of Loose Creek, Mo., on my family’s hog and cattle farm. I attended college at the University of Missouri where I majored in agribusiness management. I have been with FSA for almost seven years and have spent the last six years serving as the director of DeKalb County FSA in Maysville. I reside on a small cattle farm in Daviess County with my husband Dillon and our two sons. I am very excited and grateful for the opportunity to continue my career in Daviess County. I look forward to meeting each of you as you visit the office. In an effort to keep you all informed of programs, signups, deadlines, and new information, I plan to distribute “coffee shop talk” once a month. If you would like any further information feel free to call, email or just stop on by the office. We look forward to seeing you. Here at the office we received 0.65 inches of rain in the month of September, compared to the normal 4.24 inches. For the 2017 calendar year we are about 8.68 inches behind normal. A few crop reporting deadlines to keep in mind — hay and

pasture reports are due by Nov. 15 each year. However, the majority of farmers in the county signed up for Continuous Certification, which rolls the previous hay and pasture report forward every year. You will only need to do a new report if you have made changes to those acres, the crop, intended use, or type. The one exception is acres reported as alfalfa, and those have to be reported by Nov. 15 every year. The deadline to report winter wheat is Dec. 15. ARC and PLC payments for 2016 have been determined for Daviess County. The Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) program triggered payments for wheat, milo and oat bases. The Price Loss Coverage (PLC) program will pay on corn, wheat, milo and oat bases. The ARC payments are based on the five-year average market prices and county yields to establish a per acre revenue guarantee. If the 2016 actual revenue falls below that guarantee, payments are triggered. The PLC program is merely based on reference prices set by the 2014 Farm Bill. If the marketing year average price of a given commodity falls below the reference price, payments are triggered. For example, the reference price set for corn is $3.70 and the 2016 marketing year average price was $3.36, giving the difference of $.34 to be used in calculating payments. Corn bases

enrolled in PLC will pay $.34 x the previously established corn yield on your farm x 85% of the corn base acres on that particular farm. If you have questions about the programs or your farm specifically, give us a call and we’ll be happy to give you more info. It’s county committee election time for producers in Marion, Liberty, Jefferson, Colfax and Sheridan Townships. To be an eligible voter, you must own a farm and/or operate a farm in one of these five townships. The Farm Service Agency is unique in the fact that we operate on the farmer-elected committee system so your participation is important! Ballots will be mailed the first week of November and must be returned or postmarked by Dec. 4. Farm Service Agency offers low interest Marketing Assistance Loans (MAL). MALs provide producers interim financing after harvest to help them meet cash flow needs without having to sell their commodities when market prices are typically at harvest-time lows. The current interest rate is 2.25% and the grain is used as collateral for the nine-month loan. That’s all folks! Thanks for reading this month’s edition of Coffee Shop Talk. Until next time, we wish everyone a safe and abundant harvest. Mandi Bird, CED, Daviess County FSA

In some areas of Missouri, Internet service is no different than turning on a light switch, but for many Missourians that isn’t the case. For those who are unserved and underserved, this isn’t about entertainment (although we may use Facebook and Netflix like everyone else). Broadband availability allows the best healthcare, education and economic development opportunities to reach anywhere in the state. That’s why Missouri Farm Bureau will continue to focus on and talk about this issue until all Missourians have access to reliable, affordable, high-speed Internet, no matter which end of the street you live. E dit o r’ n o t e: B.J. Tanksley, of Ashland, Mo., is Director of State Legislative Affairs for the Missouri Farm Bureau.

Spike: Waterfalls

( continued from page 2)

We visited both the Eastman Mansion (as in Mr. Eastman of Kodak photography fame) and the Graycliff Estate (a lakefront home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright). We happened into Lockport City, following up on a tip by the waiter at the local Pizza Hut, to witness boats lifted up and through the Erie Canal. We also explored the USS Little Rock, a Navy missile cruiser now docked on display at a military museum in Buffalo, NY. Prickett’s Fort State Park puts your mind to the days of pioneers forced to “Fort Up” whenever Shawnee warriors threatened. I stared with pride at the battered (and padded) helmet of Chiefs great linebacker Willie Lanier on display in the Pro Football Hall of Fame at Canton, Ohio. We spent a couple of hours at the Louisville Slugger Museum and Factory in Kentucky, to scratch a recurring itch for more baseball on the drive back home.

Travel itineraries are simple for us. We don’t use one. We don’t want to be accountable to any schedule or deadline dictated by a clock. We hoped for at least two worthwhile stops per day. We had only one definite target: Niagara Falls. Otherwise, we go day-today. This works for us, but something we’d never attempt when we had youngsters. Niagara Falls is definitely worth the trip. We’ve scratched it off our bucket list. But, this is the real measure …someday I want to go back to McConnell Mill. You know you’ve had a good time when you’re ready to hit the road again almost immediately after you get back home. I still have trouble comprehending how big this great country of ours really is, and how blessed we as free Americans are. Next up on our bucket list: the Grand Canyon. Or maybe the Redwoods. Someday, Lord willing. Dunno how soon. How ‘bout you?

War on coal is over by Co n g res s man S am G rav es

In 2008, then presidential candidate Obama, declared war on coal stating that his regulations would “bankrupt the coal industry.” As president, he did exactly as promised. Excessive, burdensome regulations came pouring out of the Environmental Protection Agency and when it came to coal-fired power plants, the final blow was called the “Clean Power Plan.” The “Clean Power Plan” was implemented by President Obama in 2015 requiring coal-fired power plants to drastically reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

We won the Missouri-Texas War by S t at e R ep. J . E g g l es t o n

You didn’t know there was a battle fought between Missouri and Texas? Neither did I until a few years ago. In 2008, I took up a hobby called Geocaching. Essentially, it is a treasure hunt game that can take you to many interesting or noteworthy places, most of which you probably never knew existed. Through Geocaching, I have found over 2,600 interesting places, including at least one in all 114 counties in Missouri. I have been to a medieval castle in Northmoor (a KC suburb), the home of the largest trees in Missouri in Big Oak Tree State Park in the bootheel, and a claustrophobia-inducing cave near Springfield. But one of the most memorable stories I learned in my ventures was the history of Moses Austin. Moses Austin was born in Connecticut, lived a while in Virginia where he married and had children, and then moved his family to an area that at the time was Spanish territory, but would

eventually become SE Missouri. There, he became rich in lead mining (an industry that still thrives there today) and was part of building the roads, bridges, stores, and mills in what is now Potosi, MO. In 1821, Moses was granted permission by Spain to establish a colony of 300 families in what is now Texas. Unfortunately, Moses died before that project got underway, but he bequeathed his permission to his son, Stephen Austin. You might recognize Stephen Austin as the namesake of Stephen F. Austin University in Nacagdoches, TX, and of the Texas capital city of Austin. Stephen, who actually served as a state representative in the Missouri legislature when we were still a territory, brought the 300 families to Texas. He was dubbed “the Father of Texas.” After a life instrumental in winning Texas’ independence and establishing the Republic of Texas, Stephen Austin died in 1836. Over 100 years later in 1938, some Texans felt that not only should the Father of Texas be

John Tarwater on Honor Flight John Tarwater, Gallatin, was one of 54 veterans on the Oct. 5, 2017, Honor Flight to Washington D.C. John was accompanied by a guardian, his son, Barry Tarwater. The veterans met at Kansas City International airport in the early morning for their flight to Arlington, Va. Their first stop was the WWII Memorial and then the Arlington National Cemetery and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. After the Changing of the Guard, a wreath from the veterans was laid and taps were played. Next were the Korean, Vietnam and Lincoln Memorials on the National Mall. The Air Force Memorial was next, and that was followed by a bus tour of the White House and Pentagon.

Ball field improvements to batter’s box, pond issues discussed at park meeting

Family history folks at Trenton Mo Days

Bob Robertson discussed the ball field upkeep during the Sept. 21 meeting of the Dockery Park Board. He would like to see a new batter’s box foundation purchased for the upper field. Foundations can be found on sale now since it is the off season. The existing foundation on the upper field could be moved to the lower field. The board approved the purchase. Ira Sloan will head the pond committee. Discussion was held on issues with the pond. A bill in the amount of $250 was approved for payment. A check from the band boosters for $270 was received for profits from the summer ball program. A playground chairman needs to be appointed. One bid for the painting of the Gazebo was received. The bid from Cramer Construction is $3,240. The issue was tabled until next month.

Who do you think you are? A Grundy Folks database may help you find out. The database contains genealogical history of more than 250,000 persons and 90,000 families that are connected to someone who lived in Grundy, Daviess and nearby counties. Going beyond names, dates and places, Grundy Folks data puts families together and links them to ancestors and descendants while documenting sources for data verification. Who you think you are may already be defined in the Grundy Folks historical data, which is being demonstrated at the Trenton MO Day Festival in the Rock Barn booth six on Oct. 20 and 21. Stop by for a rapid search of your ancestral line and, should it appear, receive a free Pedigree Chart (up to five generations) and up to two Family Group Sheets of your ancestors’ families. The Grundy Folks database was compiled by Elnora “Jackie” Hacker (maiden name Jones), a native of Trenton.

Discussion was held on capital improvements for the next year. A budget will need to be created at the next meeting so that city hall will have it at the end of October as requested. The next park board meeting is at 7 p.m. on Oct. 19. The above are taken from the unapproved minutes of the Dockery Park Board meeting held on Sept. 17. Members present were Jeremy Dungy, Julie Vyrostek, DeAnna Swalley, Ira Sloan, and David Marble. Also present was Bob Robertson.

Title: An American Sickness Author: Elisabeth Rosenthal Category: Adult Non-fiction This book in five words or less: Depressing. This is a new book at our library. It tells how healthcare became big business and why. Not a pleasant read.

Title: Spider Sisters Author: John Trent Category: Children’s Fiction This book in five words or less: No friend like a sister! This is a beautifully illustrated book grabbing my attention from the start. It is inspirational. While it is a simple picture book, it provides many teaching points, the foremost of which is even when siblings have different personalities or experience squabbles, there is a solid bond and overarching loyalty that is deeply rooted in love. I own a copy of this book with an inscription from my own sister. It is a wonderful read and wonderful gift read for loved ones. To this day, this book is my grandchildren’s favorite. Title: The Secret History of Wonder Woman Author: Jill Lepore Category: Adult Non-Fiction This book in five words or less: Truth is wilder than fiction. Jill Lepore’s detailed research on William Moulton Marston, the creator of Wonder Woman, reveals a twisted and crazy backstory shedding light not only the origins and ideas that inspired one of the most popular comic superheroes of all time, but also giving a peek into the tumultuous political and cultural times of the 20th century. Marston was a man fitting many descriptions: inventor of the polygraph, unconventional in his love and family life, failed lawyer, Harvard grad, and psychotherapist to name a few. His life was secretly played out via comic strip scenarios and no one was the wiser until Lepore happened upon an archive of family letters,

The Gallatin football Bulldogs have lately become accustomed to unusual endings, and Friday night’s climactic finish fit the bill. For the second week in a row, Gallatin’s defense lined up in the game’s final minute against an opponent needing to pick up 19 yards in order to keep a drive alive. Trenton, trailing, 14-12, but driving into Gallatin territory, faced third down and long after a Jared Williams tackle of running back Hunter Dugan for a loss. Quarterback Lathan Croy dropped back to pass and saw primary receiver Colton Colston drawing man-to-man coverage on a deep slant. Croy’s pass was long and both receiver and defender stumbled and fell near Gallatin’s sideline. The sideline official closest to the play threw a delayed flag and called Gallatin for pass interference, a call that would place the ball first and 10 at Gallatin’s 13-yard line…but wait a minute. After a huddle of officials in the middle of the field, the call was reversed and the penalty was assessed against Trenton. Now back on the 42-yard line, Croy tried two more passes in the fi-

nal seconds, overthrowing the first and under throwing a final toss to Colston on fourth down. Gallatin took over on its own 42 and quarterback Cole McBee took a knee three times to kill the clock and preserve a two-point GHS victory. Gallatin, struggling to get its offense going, trailed by six points early in the fourth quarter, but senior halfback Caleb Boyd was hitting his stride behind a pumped up Bulldog line. Boyd carried for a long gain to Trenton’s 45-yard line on a reverse. Moments later, McBee ran for a first down to the 16. Boyd carried for gains of two and four yards. McBee bulled ahead, straining for the first down mark but came up short. On fourth and one, McBee couldn’t handle the snap from center, but Boyd alertly scooped the ball off the ground and dashed untouched around left end for the game-tying score. What worked once, worked again as Boyd followed Graydee Rains and lead back Corbin Toney into the end zone for the all-important two-point conversion. Gallatin’s defense found its mojo again Friday night, forcing a pair of turnovers in the red

zone. A sack by Rains and tackle for loss by Toney kept Trenton out of the end zone on its first series of the game. A fumble recovery by Tom Crouse gave Gallatin a scoring chance of its own but the promising drive stalled on Trenton’s five-yard line. With Trenton bottled just outside the end zone, Patrick McNickle collared Croy for a loss to force a punt. Rains powered in to partially block the kick and Boyd recovered the ball on the 28 to provide Gallatin with a short field to work with. McBee powered over from the two-yard line behind Crouse and Noah Engel for the game’s first score with 1:33 left in the first half. The two-point conversion attempt failed. Trenton needed only one minute to drive down to Gallatin’s 20-yard line but Williams recovered a Tom Crouse recovered a second quarter Trenton fumble and Drayton Harris fumble in the backfield and (#8) led him up the field on the return. Gallatin ran out the clock.

Jayvee Bulldogs finish 6-1 with win over Trenton Gallatin’s junior varsity Bulldogs ended the season with a 32-24 victory over Trenton on Monday night to close their season with a record of 6-1. Haden Bradford scored on a four-yard run with less than 20 seconds left in the game to break a 24-24 tie. Drayton Harris threw for two first half touchdowns, including a 14-yard strike to J.J. Wates and a 17-yard scoring pass to Tristen Gibson.

Gibson returned the second half kickoff 59 yards for a goahead score. Bradford and Aiden Adkison ran for touchdowns in the second half. Gibson and Jacob Maize intercepted passes for the Bulldog defense. The Bulldogs’ lone loss this season was 12-8 to Princeton, but they rebounded with a 26-0 win over Putnam County last week. Overall, the Bulldogs outscored their opponents, 198-60.

Trenton tied the score with a Croy-to-Colston pass covering 13 yards with 6:41 on the third quarter clock. A Trenton defender streaked around the left side to block a Colin Beck punt and that gave the home Bulldogs the opportunity to take a 12-6 lead after a Croy 12-yard scoring run. For the second time, Gallatin stuffed the two-point attempt. Trenton’s lead held up until Boyd’s opportune scoring run with 5:06 left in the contest. Boyd turned in his second straight 100-yard rushing performance, gaining 150 yards on 21 carries, with his longest a 48yard dash. Like last season, Gallatin will now face Putnam County for the second time. The Bulldogs earned the #3 seed in the district bracket behind Hamilton and top-seeded Princeton. A victory at home for Gallatin would avenge both a two-point loss to the Midgets two weeks ago and a two-point loss in last season’s first round of districts.

Missouri loses to Georgia, hosts Idaho for Homecoming next By Benj amin Herrold When you’re a fan of a bad team, you don’t need a three-hour reminder of the gap between your team and the best team in the division, but sometimes you get one anyway. Missouri fans had that experience Saturday night, as No. 4 Georgia beat the Tigers 53-28 “Between the Hedges” at Sanford Stadium. Missouri (1-5, 0-4 in SEC) showed its occasional big play offensive ability, with Drew Lock hitting receiver Emanuel Hall

for two 63-yard touchdown passes in the first half, the second of which tied the game 21-21 in the second quarter and quieted the big crowd at Sanford for a bit. But Georgia’s offense just kept hammering away at Missouri’s beleaguered defense, running out to a 34-21 halftime lead and a 47-21 advantage after three quarters. The Bulldogs (7-0, 4-0 in SEC) racked up 696 yards of offense, including 326 passing yards and 370 rushing yards on 51 carries, an average of 7.3 yards per carry.

Nick Chubb and Sony Michel, who have seemingly been piling up yards against Missouri for a decade, were key contributors to that rushing onslaught, as was freshman D’Andre Swift. The Bulldogs, now ranked No. 3 in the country, are rolling under second-year coach Kirby Smart. This was Missouri’s toughest game of the year, and the Tigers showed some fight, so that’s something. Lock had a pretty good game against a good defense. (continued on Page 10)

Late inning bats propel Canton Tigers to sectional win over Gallatin team

State golfers … these are the girls! Scores from ﬁrst day ﬁnal, due to rain Gallatin golfers Kelli Lynch, Megan Cox and Sarabeth Michael didn’t get a chance to improve their standings after the opening day of the Class 1 state golf tournament in Columbia. Mother Nature took care of that. Rain on the morning of Oct. 10 washed out day two of the event, making scores from the first day final. Lynch shot an 18-hole round of 100 on Monday for a tie for 43rd place. Cox was part of a four-way tie for 69th place after shooting 110. Michael shot 122 to finish 84th overall.

Canton’s Lady Tigers busted loose with six runs in the fifth inning and nine in the sixth to halt Gallatin’s advance in the Class 1 state softball tournament on Wednesday. Canton, the top seed out of District 11, coupled a 15-hit attack and seven Lady Bulldog errors into a 17-6 victory that advanced the Mississippi Rivertown girls to the quarterfinal round, where the Tigers defeated Salisbury, 6-3. Gallatin’s season ended at 10-15. Gallatin loaded the bases in the opening inning but could not push a run across the plate. Aubrey Feiden walked and advance to second on Caragan Baker’s ground out. Courtney Shubert reached on an error but was thrown out on Kelsey Maxwell’s fielder’s choice. Karley Salmon walked but the GHS threat ended on a strike out. Gallatin’s only hit until the fifth inning was a second inning, two-out double by Hayley Michael. Meanwhile, Canton plated a pair of runs in the fourth inning on a double and two-run homer. The Lady Tigers bashed three more homers over the course of the next two innings.

Shubert drove in two runs in the fifth inning with a double. Singles by Feiden, Baker, Shubert, Maelea Coulson and Hayley Michael helped produce four GHS runs in the sixth. “We played a really tough Canton team that made two state appearances recently and had a couple of returning all-staters in their lineup,” GHS Head Coach Courtney Ray said after the game. “I was proud of the fact that even though it seemed the game was inevitably over during the sixth inning, our girls rallied to knock their starting pitcher out of the game and made the score line even closer,” she added. “This team is full of girls with tremendous character and quality leadership, and because of that, they rallied around each other and ended the season while playing some of the best team ball that we had all year,” Ray went on. “I can’t thank the seniors enough for all of the time they’ve invested in our program. We’re going to miss them dearly, but I also know the younger kids are hungry and will be ready to go at it next season.”

The annual event features speakers and discussion groups and is designed to give high school students the opportunity to learn more about current issues. “These students are among the best and brightest in North Missouri,” said Rep. Graves. “The Future Leaders Academy is a chance for them to hear from other leaders in Missouri, share their perspectives and gain insight into the important issues of the day.” This year’s event featured a keynote speech from Missouri Lt. Governor Mike Parson. Parson, a farmer, former sheriff and former state senator, told the students about his path to the Lt. Governor’s office and what he values. He said that the most important thing students could do is think about the next generation when making deci-

sions. “I always say that politicians think about the next election, but statesmen think about the next generation. Leaders think about the next generation. So, what are you doing for the next generation, for the underclassmen? You don’t have to wait to be leaders. You are leaders now,” said Parson. Discussion group topics included “Homeland Security,” “Agriculture,” and “Cyber Security” with speakers from the Department of Homeland Security, Missouri Farm Bureau and Saint Luke’s Health System.

Courthouse News Marriage Justin Tyler Moody, 29, and Michelle Lee Jago, 29, both of Gower, were married Oct. 12 by Judge Daren Adkins. James Lewis, road and bridge supervisor, reported that crews are completing corrugated pipe placement in Lincoln Township. Assessor Sally Black submitted her annual 2017 training certificates. Jeannie Cunningham and Brett Delaney, Mike Keith insurance agents, discussed renewal rates for health insurance for Dec. 1, 2017. Renewal rates were at a 0% increase with the Lifestyle Health Plans. The vision plan went down 1.78%. Judy Elbert asked the commissioners for use of the courthouse first floor and lawn for “Christmas on the Square” on Nov. 18. David Cox entered the meeting at 10:30 a.m. A public meeting was held at 11 a.m. for bid openings for Bridge 43100222 BRO-B031(36) and Bridge 431002081 BROB031(37). In attendance were Jon Dwiggins, Howe Company LLC; Gene Haile, Gene Haile Excavating, Inc.; Marli Hayes, Capital Paving & Construction; Michael Sattman, MS Contracting LLC; Terry Littrell, Boone Construction; and Chris Childress, C&C Bridge & Concrete Inc. Bids were opened. Commissioners will review later and award bridges at that time. Commissioners discussed having health insurance for employees with three options of a deductible of $3,500; $2,500 with an employee “buy-up;” and a Health Savings Account. Sally Black, assessor, and Vicki Corwin, county clerk, held discussion with the commissioners regarding keys to offices and cleaning issues. The meeting adjourned at 4:15 p.m.

Iowa man acquitted in jury trial Oct. 6 A jury trial was conducted Oct. 6 in Daviess County Circuit Court, and the defendant, Carlos Rocha of Fort Dodge, Iowa, was found not guilty. The case was heard by Judge Thomas Chapman. “This was a difficult case for several reasons,” said Daviess County Prosecutor Annie Gibson. “I appreciate the hard work and careful consideration that the jury took in rendering a verdict. Though it was not the outcome the state desired, I respect the jury’s decision.” Rocha had been stopped by the Highway Patrol on Jan. 22, 2017, for a plate violation on I-35 in Daviess County. He was transported to the regional jail for 12-hour detoxification. He refused all field sobriety testing. A search warrant for Rocha’s blood was completed but he would not comply with the warrant to allow blood to be drawn. He was later charged with DWI, persistent offender, E felony, and a plate violation. Rocha had two prior convictions for DWI. This was the second jury which had been called in the case. A jury trial had previously been scheduled for June 9. The jury was called to service, but was released when the charges against Rocha were dismissed. The charges were refiled later that same day.

MU Football (continued from page 6) But the biggest reason for Tiger fans to be excited this week is the upcoming game on Saturday, when the Tigers host Idaho (11 a.m. on SEC Network). Missouri is a big favorite, and it might be the Tigers’ first win in a month and a half. Idaho (2-4) is coming off a narrow loss to a decent Appalachian State team, but even with Missouri’s struggles, the Vandals are a team they should beat. Also, it’s Homecoming at Ol’ Mizzou, and that’s a big deal at Missouri, bigger than it is at many schools. Missouri credits itself with inventing Homecoming, with a football coach in 1911 asking alumni to “come home” to cheer on the Tigers in a big game with Kansas. With that tradition of using extra Homecoming support in big games, it’s a shame Missouri has recently shown

the trend of scheduling nonconference teams from non-Power 5 conferences for Homecoming. But it’s still the same special weekend in Columbia, the town that never seems to age. There’ll be decorations all over downtown and the fraternity and sorority houses, the parade, and the coronation at halftime. There might also be a muchneeded Tiger win. On Sunday, Missouri’s muchanticipated basketball team will scrimmage with old rival Kansas in a charity exhibition game in Kansas City, a great way to raise money for hurricane relief. The two haven’t played since 2012, when the two split a pair of epic games in Missouri’s final Big 12 season. With the Homecoming festivities and that scrimmage, it should be entertaining to be a Tiger fan this weekend.

Melanie’s children’s message was “Patience” and the children sang “I’ve Got Peace” after which Terry and Melanie took the kids to children’s church.

Students, would you like to win $$? The VFW Post 2172 Auxiliary would like to challenge students to participate in the Voice of Democracy and Patriot’s Pen contests. Why? To allow you to express your views on democracy, show your patriotism, and win some scholarships. The Voice of Democracy contest is open to students in grades nine through 12. You will record your original three to five minute essay on a CD. Students need to label the CD with their name and include a typed copy of the essay and completed entry form. The 2017-18 theme is “American History: Our Hope for the Future.” Voice of Democracy is judged on delivery and content of the essay. The Patriot’s Pen contest is open to students in grades six through eight and consists of a typed essay of 300 to 400 words with a completed entry form attached. The 2017-18 theme is: “America’s Gift to My Generation.” Who can enter? Any child that is enrolled in a public, private or parochial school or home study program in the United States, its territories and possessions, or in an overseas U.S. military/ civilian dependent school. Foreign exchange students and for-

mer winners who placed in national finals are excluded from the contest. Local prizes for both contests will be: first place $50, second place $30, and third place $25. Each contest level will have prizes of either cash or savings bonds. The next levels are district, state, and national. National level prizes for the Patriot Pen contest are from $5,000 for first place to $500 for sixth place. The national level grand prize for Voice of Democracy is a $30,000 scholarship. Information will be provided to all the schools in the county. All entry forms must be filled out correctly — please take the time to read the directions carefully. For additional information on the contests or about entry forms, please contact VFW Ladies Auxiliary Youth Chairman Sherri Carder, 660-663-3106, or e-mail sherricarder@gmail. com. Students may enter either contest, even without a teacher to sponsor them, but they must notify Sherri of their entry. All entries must be turned in by Oct. 31, 2017. Additional information for Voice of Democracy, Patriot’s Pen and the entry forms are located online at: www.vfw.org/ scholarships.

Watch out for slow-moving vehicles, says MoDOT It’s harvest time on Missouri farms, and MoDOT wants to remind motorists to pay extra attention to farm equipment using and crossing state roadways. “Harvest season is a busy time of the year for Missouri’s farm families, and MoDOT wants to make it a safe time of year too,” said MoDOT Highway Safety and Traffic Engineer Nicole Hood. “Farm equipment vehicles can be slow-moving, and motorists may be surprised

when they come up behind one on a Missouri highway.” Missouri’s 34,000 miles of state roadways pass alongside the fields of thousands of farms throughout the state. Farm equipment vehicles were involved in 582 crashes in the three years of 2014 through 2016. These crashes resulted in 17 people being killed and 199 injured. “Contrary to what some may believe, these crashes do not

just occur on county roadways,” Hood said. “While the majority of these crashes occurred on letter routes and county roads, some crashes also occurred on interstates and other highspeed roadways.” Motorists are advised to slow down when approaching farm vehicles. Be patient as the farm vehicles travel to their field entrances. In passing zones, please wait until it is safe, and pass at a safe distance and speed.

1:05! North Daviess students learn life-saving skills during Fire Prevention Safety Week

Eighty-three students — the K-12 student body of North Daviess elementary and high school — exited the school building in excellent time, one minute and five seconds, during a fire drill held on Oct. 13. The drill was the first step in a series of lessons on Fire Prevention Safety Week. Area emergency workers, including the Jameson Fire Department, Lifeflight Eagle, Gallatin Fire Protection District Ladder Truck (Doug Hamilton), Daviess County Sheriff ’s Department (Sgt. Larry Adams), Gallatin Ambulance, and Smokey the Bear (played by Ethan Rhoades, Jameson) attended the event. Each emergency department spoke to the students and explained their part in fire safety, and they showed the students their emergency vehicles.

Lifeflight Eagle was a special attraction to the students. The helicopter landed in the ball field at the school with three crew members: Gary Doak, pilot; Lachelle Hatcher, nurse; and Tim Ayers, paramedic. Three members of the Jameson Fire Department were on hand: Jared Hogan, fire chief; Henry Rhoades, assistant fire chief; and Stacey Rhoades, volunteer firefighter. Jameson Fire typically has a volunteer crew of between five and six who answer fire calls. They have had eight local fire calls this year and several medical calls. After the field demonstrations, the elementary students attended a seminar in the school gym where they learned about exiting a house during a fire, how smoke detectors work, and how to stop-drop-roll.
