Enrollment Numbers Look Good
Trustees OK Extension Of President’s Contract North Central Missouri College trustees approved a contract extension for the college president and heard an encouraging enrollment report during a meeting held on Tuesday night. The board, which had conducted an evaluation of Dr. Lenny Klaver during a board retreat on Jan. 17, voted to offer him a two-year extension on his contract, with the salary to be set at a later time. The extension gives him a contract through 2023. In his report, Dr. Klaver said spring enrollment as of Jan. 18, excluding dual credit, is up 5.76 percent in head count and 6.37 percent in credit hours. When dual credit enrollment is included, head count is up 3.93 percent and credit hours generated is up 6.26 percent. Spring enrollment shows 1,138 students excluding dual credit generating 12,857 credit hours. With dual credit, head count is 1,350 students generating 13,026 credit hours. He also reported that when
looking ahead to summer and fall enrollment, applications are up nine over the same time last year for the summer term and up 55 applications over the same date last year for the upcoming fall term. Dr. Klaver discussed Gov. Mike Parson’s recent executive order moving the Division of Workforce Development and the Missouri Economic Research and Information Center from the Department of Economic Development to the Department of Higher Education. He told the board that the Coordinating Board for Higher Education has ranked NCMC’s proposal for funding through the MoExcels program as 12th out of 26, with Gov. Parson including 18 of those proposals totaling $16.3 million in the FY2020 budget. NCMC’s proposal, “Leading Edge: Ag and Manufacturing,” will allow NCMC to create a Center for Excellence in convergent technology, including simulators, process learning and industry-standard, high-

tech equipment. The proposal is for $350,000. Green Hills Head Start Director Dr. Bev Hooker, who was attending her last meeting prior to her retirement on Jan. 31, gave her monthly report on the program and was given approval to submit an application for a cost of living adjustment. The funds, if approved, would be used to increase staff salaries, permanently adjust salary schedules, assist with costs associated with fringe benefits and offset higher program operating costs. Hourly pay rates are expected to increase approximately 1.77 percent.

OATS Not Receiving Federal Funding
Bus Numbers Reduced The shutdown of the federal government has resulted in a reduction in the number of vehicles being operated in Trenton by the local OATS Transit service. According to dispatcher/bus driver Doug Spears, the local office is operating just two buses, down from the three which normally cover routes within the city limits during the week. The local office, located at the North 65 Center, is continuing to keep its same hours of operations, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Monday through Friday. OATS Northwest Regional Director Beth Langley said the area, which includes Trenton, receives two grants from the Federal Transportation Authority that help fund transportation services. With FTA being closed due to the shutdown, those monies are not available for distribution. As a result, each of the area OATS providers were asked to find ways to cut costs
and both Trenton and Chillicothe chose to eliminate one of the buses used to provide transportation. Despite the funding situation, Ms. Langley said OATS will continue providing transportation in the area. OATS provides transportation to individuals who may not have another way to get places such as work, the grocery store, medical appointments, etc. OATS Transit Executive Director Dorothy Yeager said many communities who offer OATS services in Missouri are not receiving their grant funding due to the government shutdown and are having to reduce their services in order to meet financial obligations with the money they do receive from other sources. Ms. Yeager said that while staff members are already working to reduce operating costs, additional cuts may have to be made if the shutdown continues into February.

SPORTS HIGH SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL
Trenton Bulldogs 60, Richmond Spartans 31
Bulldogs Run Rampant On Richmond At Hamilton Tourney In the first round of the Lawson Tournament two weeks ago, the Trenton High School boys basketball team was bumped in the first round as the tournament’s three seed - albeit in an overtime thriller. But, what goes around comes around. At the Hamilton Tournament on Monday night, the Trenton Bulldogs, now seeded sixth, delivered a statement victory over third-seeded Richmond, winning by a 60-31 score.
The week between the two tournaments was wiped out by a pair of cancelled games, making Trenton all the more eager to get back on the court and put the showing in Lawson firmly in the rearview mirror. Trenton’s readiness showed from the onset as the Bulldogs raced out to a 16-3 first quarter lead. Trenton won every race to a loose ball and swarmed the boards as the lead continued to mount. “We played under control and exe-
Sports Briefs... Trenton JV Scores Road Wins The Trenton High School junior varsity basketball teams were in action on Monday night in Milan. Both the Trenton girls and boys returned home with wins as the Bulldogs took the girls game 35-31 and the boys game 43-39. In the girls contest, Trenton found itself trailing 31-26, but the Bulldogs closed the game on a 9-0 run to rally back and remain undefeated on the season at 7-0. Chandler Lynch and Teya Cooksey led the Bulldogs with 13 and 12 points, respectively. Hannah Bowe added four points while Gracyn Rongey and Jenna Reeter each had three points. Boys action saw the Bulldogs jump out to a 13-5 lead in the opening frame, then fend off multiple Milan rallies the rest of the way. The Wildcats closed the gap to a single point twice in the fourth quarter, but never led as Trenton held on for the four-point victory. “There was a lot of toughness from the guys,” Trenton JV boys Coach Kameron Cool said. “They’ve put a lot of work in and really earned this one tonight.” Camdyn Leeper led all scorers with 16 points. Trenton was balanced from there, getting nine points from Brycin Loyd, seven from Gavin Roeder, six from Preston Harris and five from Chase Otto. Trenton’s JV boys moved to 4-3 on the season with the win. Both JV squads will travel to Stanberry for abreviated games ahead of a varsity doubleheader between the two schools on Friday, Feb, 1.

cuted well,” Trenton Head Coach Jeremy Austin said. “The biggest thing that we did was refuse to let any loose balls get away from us. We dove, fought and scrapped for every possession. I’m very proud of these guys for bouncing back after a tough Lawson Tournament. They really are a great group.” After maintaining the large lead through the second quarter, Trenton hit Richmond with another run in the third quarter, outscoring the Spartans

25-13 over the first eight minutes of the second half. That essentially ended the game as the tournament’s third seed could only muster five more points in the fourth quarter and Trenton wrapped up the 29-point victory. Carson Radcliff led the Bulldogs with 17 points and five rebounds while Max McNabb finished with 15 points. Carson Burchett reached double figures as well, scoring 11 points and had eight assists in the win. Jaren

REGION ROMP NCMC Men Crush MCC In Region 16 Opener
A season that has been a mixed bag for the North Central Missouri College men’s basketball team suddenly looks bright after the Pirates blasted Region 16 rival Metropolitan Community College formerly Penn Valley - 110-75 on Wednesday night at the Ketcham Community Center in Trenton. The Pirates had toiled to an 8-8 record on the season entering the game and had lost their last two contests. After Wednesday’s result, however, North Central can’t help but feel like a contender for a region title, something that has eluded the Pirates since the basketball program was brought back to NCMC in 1999.

“It was nice to see what we could do with 40 minutes of consistency,” Pirates’ Head Coach Jeremy Esry said. “We have talked a lot lately about attitude and energy and the guys for sure brought that tonight.” Jordan Reece had 18 points, three steals and three assists to lead North Central. Soloman Thomas followed with 16 points, eight rebounds and three assists and Marty Jackson and Quinan Rieves added 15 and 14 points, respectively. Jaran Richman, Jake Salisbury and Quinan Rieves all had eight points each. “Offensively I loved how much pressure we put on (MCC) the entire game and never let them rest,” Esry said. “On defense, we did a great job of making them take tough and contested jump shots and
then rebounding off of that. Hopefully we can build off of this.” The win pushed NCMC to 9-8 overall and established a 1-0 record in Region 16 play. NCMC WOMEN As good of a night as it was for the men, it was an equally tough night for the women, who were handed a 105-80 loss. North Central fell behind 26-19 in the opening quarter and trailed the rest of the night. The Metropolitan lead was just 49-40 at halftime, but a 32-point outburst by the visitors in the third quarter and a 24-16 run in the fourth sealed the Pirates’ fate. Hailey Burrows led the Pirates with 18 points and seven rebounds and Maddison Book scored 18 points as well. Da’Briauna Bables had 17 points and 13 rebounds,

Our goal right now is to get better each day.” With the loss - the sixth straight for the Pirates - the NCMC women fell to 6-11 overall and 0-1 in Region 16 play on the season.

For former Princeton allstate linebacker Nathan Powell, life was pretty good as the defensive coordinator for the Maryville Spoofhounds - a post he had served in for the past nine seasons. During his 11 years with the Spoofhound program, he had helped Maryville to 11 district championships, eight Midland Empire Conference championships, four state championships and two more state runner-up finishes. Maryville is currently riding a 61-game home winning streak. With success like that, it would be tough to leave such a strong program. But, Powell is leaving. The allure of returning home to take over the program he played for throughout his high school career was too appealing. Powell, a 1996 graduate of Princeton, will become the school’s next head football coach along with taking over as the head coach of the track and field program. Powell has been the head track and field coach at Maryville for the past five years, capturing four MEC and

four district championships in that span. He guided the Spoofhounds to a third-place state finish in 2013 and a fourth-place finish in 2017. He has coached nine individual district champions, one state champion and 25 state medalists. “Ashlie (Powell’s wife and a 2002 Princeton graduate as Ashlie Moore) and I are unbelievably excited to bring our family home,” Powell said. “Our time in Maryville has been fantastic, but when an
opportunity to get closer to our families and to raise our boys in a supportive community with a forward-thinking school district presented itself, there was no way we could say no. The changes and improvements the Princeton community has invested in are second to none and we can’t wait to be a part of it.” Powell takes over for outgoing Princeton Head Coach Thomas Hotmer, who resigned after three years with the Tigers to also move closer to home. Princeton ran a record of 21-14 under Hotmer, winning Grand River Conference and district championships in 2017. “Coach (Thomas) Hotmer and his staff have done a tremendous job establishing a quality program at PHS,” Powell said. “I couldn’t ask for a better situation to move into. I look forward to working with Coach Hotmer and the returning assistant coaches this spring to make a smooth transition and to build upon their recent successes.” Powell is entering his 18th year in the teaching and coaching profession.

ACROSS MISSOURI
Columbia Artist Offers Henna To Those Coping With Illness COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — When a friend approached Columbia artist Sue Giger for a henna tattoo, Giger had never heard of it. Giger, who conducts her part-time art business under the name Midnight Museum, has experience in printmaking, watercolor and acrylic painting and face and body art. When her friend told her about henna, she was immediately intrigued to learn a new art form. After researching, buying supplies and experimenting with a number of pastes, Giger was hooked. Henna is a semi-permanent dye made from Lawsonia inermis, a crop grown in the Middle East, Africa and southern Asia. Giger said one reason she fell in love with henna is because of its strong cultural history. "Anywhere that henna grows, there are cultures that have rituals around it," Giger told the Columbia Missourian . "Medicinal, decorative, ritual, religious, celebratory, all manner of things, and so it's amazing." Six years after discovering henna, Giger has perfected her henna recipe and gives tattoos at a number of festivals and takes appointments throughout the year. However, her nonprofit program, Battle Armor: Henna for Healing, allows her to connect more deeply with her community. "Henna for Healing seems to be one of the most soulful and heartfelt ways that I could interact with the community," Giger said. "Henna is just something I'm very passionate about, and it's a way for me to
share that passion with people in a healing manner." Giger decorates those who've lost their hair from illnesses such as cancer and alopecia with free henna crowns and also tattoos people struggling with other life circumstances, like the loss of a loved one, family sickness and divorce. She said her henna tattoos can be used as a meditative exercise and as a way to get a peace of mind. "If they are coming to get henna for healing, they're most likely struggling in some facet, and I want to be just a way to make that a little easier," Giger said. "I would just hope they get a little moment of peace or maybe some introspection or insight into whatever ails them." However, not all of Giger's henna tattoos have healing purposes. When Lois Kay was planning her maternity photo shoot, she wanted something to add something unique. She contacted her longtime friend, Giger, to tattoo henna on her baby bump. Kay said being tattooed by Giger was a peaceful experience. "It was a very relaxing to work with her," Kay said. "She makes your very comfortable and is respectful of your body and space." Giger has been interested in art since she was young. Her mother, who worked as a nurse, was constantly doing something crafty like watercolors, quilting and sewing, Giger said. Then in grade school and high school, Giger said she was blessed with good art teachers who helped her
nurture her love for art. Traveling with her family also inspired Giger to pursue art. While she was growing up, travel was a top priority for her family. They often went on road trips or vacationed to countries or states they hadn't been to yet. She has been to 49 states, Australia, Italy, Mexico, Canada and several islands in the Bahamas and the Caribbean. To Giger, travel has made her more sympathetic to other cultures, and that's translated into her art and lifestyle. "I just can't tell you how valuable that is to inform your lifestyles as far as art but also acceptance of different cultures, differences in the people, religion, ethnicity," Giger said. "That's primarily one of the reasons I got into henna — because it's such a multicultural immersion." Traveling, especially in Italy where Giger saw ancient and Renaissance art, gave her a new perspective on American art. "You're allowed more of a bird's-eye view on American art because that's where it all comes from, originally in Egypt and Italy and Greece," Giger said. After graduating with an art degree from Columbia College in 2000, Giger realized most of the jobs available were in graphic design. Since she was never inclined to computers, her career plans changed, she said. "Then it was to have a day job that pays the bills but something that is enjoyable, low stress, a set schedule to where I could have the full mental capacity and time to
pursue art in my off time," Giger said. "So I've been working in libraries since I was in college." Giger found her love for libraries at Stephens College, where she attended her freshman year. She was constantly in the library, and a friend told her they had student workers, so she decided to apply and got the job. "After I worked there, it was the place for me," Giger said. "It was quiet. People were nice. It's not busy; it's laid back. It was great so that was it for me." Giger works now at the MU Veterinary Library, where she rediscovered another passion: raptors — or birds of prey. Giger said that when she was growing up in Mexico, Missouri, her mother was interested in birds and the family had a pet canary. When they went on road trips, they counted hawks. They attended Eagle Days, put on through the
Missouri Department of Conservation to spot bald eagles. After compiling news articles for the College of Veterinary Medicine, Giger came across one about the MU Raptor Rehabilitation Project and decided to volunteer. She works to rehabilitate birds of prey and release them back into the wild. She also trains other volunteers in feeding and handling the birds. Giger's work with raptors is just another facet of her nature-oriented lifestyle. She loves to fish, hike, garden or anything else involving nature, she said. "To me, that's what enhances life so much. It's the life. And not only the animals but the trees, the flowers, the little ecosystems," Giger said. In an effort to preserve nature, Giger tore out all the beds in her garden this past summer to replace with native and pollinator species as an example to her community.
"That's how you change people's minds — to be an example of what you want," Giger said. "So that's what I worked toward in all facets." Giger's love for nature is another reason she became interested in henna. She said it gives her comfort knowing she can tell her clients exactly what goes in her products: henna powder, lemon or apple juice, essential oils and sugar. Giger said she's a nurturer by nature and wants that to inform her artwork as well. "I've nurtured my art career, my art ideas, the plants, the gardens," Giger said. Giger hopes to bring her nature-conscious lifestyle to her art work by using natural ingredients in her henna and working with reusable cones and bottles. "That's very much part of my philosophy with art," Giger said. "And that's why I'm drawn to henna."

Wellness for the New Year!
Each New Year brings a sense of new beginnings and the opportunity for a fresh start. Instead of going on another diet, choose to adopt healthy habits for a lifetime. Habits are hard to change so take this opportunity to set health and wellness goals. When setting a goal, make it specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and trackable. An example might be to add 1 serving each of a fruit and vegetable to daily intake or to walk 15 minutes three times a week after work. Focus on changes you can make easily so you can continue them over time. A major mistake many people make when trying to tackle a health resolution is trying to do everything at once. Take it slow and make a habit that can be continued over time. You’ll have a healthy diet sooner than you think. Don’t expect overnight success, plan for bumps in the road and have a person to support you through the rough times. Start your wellness journey with these tips: • Drink plenty of water. • Increase fiber in your diet. • Eat fruit and vegetables. • Eat some protein but not too much. • Have some fat. • Watch out for added sugar. • Get some exercise. Watch for articles each week as we talk more about these tips and how to incorporate them into your daily health habits.

Five Points by Wendell Lenhart
Winter Wonderland??? Wow, what a winter we’ve had.......so far. Having a 10inch snow has become a rarity in northern Missouri over the last several decades. The last time I can remember it being like this was the 1978 and 1979 winters. Now, not only have we had a 10inch snow, but almost that much again only a week later. Then we threw in three inches of “flurries” on Sunday. Not to be outdone, we got the full gambit on Tuesday night and into Wednesday: rain, freezing rain, sleet Wendell Lenhart and another 3 to 4 inches of snow. There is nothing slicker than water on top of ice and if you had to be out and about on Tuesday, you know what I’m talking about. Mild winters kind of became the norm for a while but we sure have broken that cycle this year. It was just a couple weeks ago that we had a calm, sunny 60-degree day on a Saturday. Kind of made you start thinking about spring. Whoops, too early to do that. I used to think that the people from here who traveled to warmer parts of the country for the winter were crazy because of our mild winters. Now I’m jealous of them. The forecast doesn’t seem to offer much relief: more snow coming this weekend and colder than normal temperatures at least until the first part of February. I’ve never really worried about this before, but it’s getting to be difficult to decide where to put this next snow once it’s removed from the sidewalk and driveway. Used to be you could just throw it to the side. But now it’s getting hard to throw it high enough to keep it from falling back down to where you just shoveled it. ##### In this era of Internet and digital everything, I find it quite interesting that instead of getting an email or ad on an electronic device, I received a mailed advertisement from Google. It was touting how Google could help me reach my best prospects through Google Ads. If that service is so good, why wouldn’t they have reached me through Google Ads instead of through the mail? Aah, the power of the printed word. That’s why I think print advertising will continue to grow and thrive. When you’re looking at the printed word, you are engaged and paying attention instead of being bombarded by ads while you are listening or watching something else. It’s also there for you to refer back to and study again. And that’s what makes it more effective than any other form of advertising.

Guest Editorials The governor declared in his state-of-the-state address, "I am not interested in building more prisons." Contrast that sentiment, which won applause on both sides of the aisle, with an earlier state-of-the-state speech that outlined plans to build two more prisons in Missouri. "We need to do our job and make sure we have a padlocked cell to put these dangerous prisoners in," Gov. Mel Carnahan told the Legislature in 1995. We assume that remark generated a few hand claps, back in the day. The state vows to close Crossroads without employee layoffs and with no prisoner releases into the community, with many staff members given a chance to transfer to the Western Missouri Correctional Center, also located in Cameron. This should come as a relief to Cameron residents, but it shouldn't absolve the state of responsibility for problems preceding the recommended closure. In short, the state failed to deliver on many of the promised benefits of bringing hundreds of prison jobs to a city. Prisons used to be considered economic-development plums. In St. Joseph, the decision to build two
state prisons in Cameron led some to envy the clout that former House Speaker Bob Griffin was able to wield in the state capital. Now, prisons are beset with staffing shortages, high turnover and low morale, which came to a head last spring in an inmate riot. The Department of Corrections acknowledges up to 800 open positions statewide, which is why the state could close a facility without laying off employees. Crossroads has the capacity to employ 390, though state officials don't disclose the actual headcount for security reasons. Last year, a jury awarded Missouri corrections officers $113 million in a class-action lawsuit claiming that the state failed to pay prison employees for work performed before and after their shifts. An attorney for corrections officers called prison guards a "forgotten police force" that got "ripped off." Certainly, Parson has good reason to suggest the closing of Crossroads, including the savings from 377 eliminated positions and the overall need to reduce the cost of incarceration. Looking back, it was a mistake to try to build two large prisons in a fairly small community. But the problems in Missouri's prisons, and in particular the staffing challenges, festered for years and only recently gained attention because of the riot, lawsuits and budget realities. State officials shouldn't believe all these problems will just go away with one prison consolidation. — St. Joseph News-Press

Shelburne Cathy Rice Due to another snow storm, services were cancelled on Sunday, Jan. 13 at the Shelburne Baptist Church. Services were held on Jan. 20. The youth and several adults played the bells for special music. Pastor Aaron Stark spoke using Romans 5:1-5 as scripture reference. A few days ago I received a message on my social media page that stated 63 days until spring. I didn't look it up but that totally works for me. We have been spoiled the last several years with streaks of warmer weather throughout winter. This winter has stood out to me as I have dear friends who have gone to Florida for the winter season. Cold, snow and ice were easier to take back in the day when I didn't know folks who
were retired and living the life. I think I'll add that to my list of things to try. Cowboy Dean has been pretty silent about choring and delivering feed in this weather. I, on the other hand, have been pretty verbal about the fear factor that comes with driving a school bus. My fingers hurt after some routes as I encourage the bus down some of the most interesting roads around. Thanks to the couple of families that are bringing their kids out to meet a driver. There are just some locations where I couldn't back a bus up if my life depended upon it. Please accept my apologies if you have gotten behind my bus as I'm driving my route cause I drive like a snail and take up most of the road. So far things have been safe and that is my top goal.

Timely Medicare Advice As Americans approach the age of 65, each has to make decisions regarding Medicare coverage. For those who signed up for Social Security before age 65 (eligibility for full benefits currently begins at age 66), they will automatically be enrolled in Medicare parts A (hospitalization) and B (outpatient care) and will receive their Medicare card three months before their 65th birthday. As far as everyone else is concerned, they must take the necessary steps to enroll in Medicare. Doing so requires that they go to HYPERLINK "http://www.socialsecurity.gov" www.socialsecurity.gov to sign up during their “initial enrollment period,� which is any time from three months before until three months after they turn 65, even if they are waiting to file for Social Security benefits. Although most retirees enroll in Medicare at age 65, if you're still working, you have more options to consider for quality health care coverage. You will have to keep track of enrollment deadlines, health care coverage options, and possible penalties to avoid, but with some planning and homework, you can avoid the common pitfalls if you continue to work beyond age 65.

Hometown Boy by Duane Dailey, Professor Emeritus University of Missouri
OLD SKILL OF LIVESTOCK JUDGING STILL NEEDED WITH GENETIC SORTS Tradition provides building blocks, the foundation of our future. Tradition ties us to the past, slowing forward progress. Ideas hit extremes as the MU animal science department struggles with teaching livestock judging. Our tradition contains award-winning livestock judging teams. A few years back judging teams were cut. Teams are expensive. They aren’t needed now. Modern livestock evaluation isn’t based on looks. Genetic testing is better. DNA can guide animal selection. Ideas divided faculty. But, cuts in budgets weighed more than reasons. Coach and teams went away. Reactions from former livestock judges were harsh. Upset alums threatened no more gifts. Bill Lamberson, current director of animal science, opened a search for a coach
to teach livestock evaluation. Pros and cons arose again. I favor reviving livestock judging. But I see judging as a small part of teaching. Now DNA data guides animal breeding. I recall reluctance of a former faculty member. He didn’t buy into DNA testing. “I want to see if the animal can walk,� he said. My judging days in 4-H are long past. Club project taught showing and judging livestock. In college evaluation was part of basic animal husbandry. DNA wasn’t taught. Today we do both. I see it happen at the MU Show-MeSelect Replacement Heifer sales. Some buyers look only at sale catalog data. They don’t bother judging what they plan to buy. What you see in consigned heifers are body conditions. Too fat or too thin affects those future cows.
Friday, I listened to the third candidate for the MU coaching job. He came from a nearby land-grant university where they still teach judging. He gave a well-reasoned talk on what evaluation should be today. It’s looks and data. Livestock judging must change to use both. For a few years at Trowbridge Center, MU trained 4-H and FFA members from across the state. Teens were given herd scenarios to frame their judging. Then a big group of animals were shown from nearby livestock farm. The assignment: Pick the top animals to save for breeding stock. Those events sponsored by MU and Missouri Department of Agriculture went away. The MU faculty leader was gone. Livestock judging is more than ranking four animals, top to bottom. The real test becomes “giving reasons.� After animals are taken away, each student must tell their judge why they placed the number four animal as No. 1 and on down the line. First they give their placings. “I rank this class four, two, one, three.� Then they recall and tell why for each animal. Student judges learn to see and retain images they then tell in a brief summary of their
reasons. This takes skill that students can learn. They think and speak up. I’m amazed watching this ultra-communications. Over time, I saw that some of our best Extension livestock agents were former livestock judges. They reasoned and spoke up. We need more of that, especially in political leadership. Our job seeker pointed out that many people in state leadership in government and commodity groups come from livestock teams. Judging teaches social skills that last a lifetime. I favor bringing judging back. I’ve seen so many former team members make meaningful talks to farmers. They use their “reasons� skills. As we left the seminar Friday, a retired faculty member who had heard all candidates said this one was a former MU judging team member. He added he was most articulate in his thought process. I said he showed excellent, concise, PowerPoint slides. There is more to judging than livestock. It teaches communications. We need that tradition. Send your reasons to duanedailey7@gmail.com

Missouri Tree Farm 70th Anniversary Celebration To Be Held March 1-2 The Forest and Woodland Association of Missouri, in cooperation with the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC), will host the Missouri Tree Farm 70th Anniversary Celebration in Columbia on March 1-2. The event is open to Missouri landowners and others who are interested in learning more about managing wooded areas on their properties. The focus will be on participation in the Tree Farm System, a national program for woodland owners who are committed to sustainably managing their property for wood, water, wildlife, and recreation.
“You don’t need to participate in the Tree Farm program to attend this conference, but it’s a great opportunity to see what it’s all about and compare notes with other property owners,� said MDC Forester A.J. Campbell. “I would encourage anyone who is interested in keeping their woods healthy and thriving to attend.� Campbell recently presented Boone County resident Mike Trial with his certificate for 50 years of participation in the Tree Farm System. Trial has intensively managed 50 acres of walnut plantations he planted decades ago with his father.
“Mike keeps very diligent records of his work on his property, including timberstand improvement, invasivespecies control, and deer-browse protection for young seedlings,� said Campbell. Trial will be recognized as the Missouri Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year during an awards banquet on Friday, March 1. The banquet will also feature a celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Tree Farm System, with scheduled speakers Chris Erwin from American Forest Foundation and Missouri State Forester Lisa Allen.
Prior to the awards banquet, attendees will have the opportunity to tour the Barrel 53 Cooperage in Higbee, which is a family-owned whiskey barrel cooperage and stave manufacturer. A reception at Bass Pro is also included on the schedule.

by Tim Baker Northwest Region Horticulture Specialist TERRARIUMS - PART 1 An interesting aspect of plant science is the study of plant growth requirements. These experiments have often taken place within isolated growth chambers, where temperature, light, water, nutrients and other environmental factors are carefully controlled. These expensive chambers are fascinating, because they attempt to emulate the plant's natural environment artificially. All the factors needed for growth are provided in a setting that is isolated from its surroundings. Of course, growth chambers are well beyond the financial resources of most plant hobbyists. However, if you like the idea of experimenting with an isolated, controlled environment for plants, terrariums provide an interesting alternative. A terrarium consists of a closed glass or plastic container that contains small plants. Soil and plants are placed in the container, watered and then sealed by placing a glass or plastic cover over the container. The plants are therefore isolated from their surroundings, and only require a little water and fertilizer infrequently. While using transparent containers for plant growth has been with us since the Greeks, the modern techniques were developed in the 1800s by Dr. N.B. Ward in London. Dr. Ward found that a seedling fern and grass

growing inside a closed bottle grew well for four years without adding any water or removing the cover. He published his findings in 1842 in a book titled “On the Growth of Plants in Closely Glazed Cases�. This led to the development of the "Wardian case," which became popular in the Victorian era. Containers for terrariums should be clear, for optimum light transmission. Almost any type of container is acceptable, including old fish tanks, bottles, jugs, or glass jars. You will need some type of transparent cover if you want to have an isolated system. You may, of course optionally have an open container, but this will require more frequent care. The choice of closed vs. open containers will be somewhat dictated by the type of plant you want to grow. To prepare your terrarium, start with some sterile gravel to be placed on the bottom. It is important that all ingredients (except the plants) be sterilized before being placed in the container. The closed container has many advantages, including the exclusion of diseases and insects. However, if pathogens or insects are introduced by mistake, the closed container will work against you since the conditions are ideal for their spread. Next, you will need a sterile soil mix. Commercial soil mixes high in peat moss are good. You may also prepare your own mix, sterilizing it before use. In my next column, I will discuss selection of plants and other factors that go into making a successful terrarium.

573-751-2917 100TH GENERAL ASSEMBLY UNDERWAY The 100th General Assembly (two years per Assembly) has officially convened in our Capitol Building which recently turned 100 years old. The pomp and circumstance seemed a little more special this year. Our Capitol continues to go through major outdoor repair and maintenance, this inconvenience I believe to be well worth the effort and expense to preserve our capitol building.
I recently was informed of my committee assignments. The work I have done within committees I believe to be the most educational experience I participated in the previous two years. My committee assignments: Agriculture Policy-member; Pensions- vice chair; Budget-member; and chairman of Education Appropriations. All legislation passes through two

Imagine the issues Postal Service has served as a that could arise if the mail wasn’t lifeline for Americans, specifically delivered six days a week. Let's say you've ordered a in rural areas. With the advent of the inter- package and expect to receive it net, things have changed.

Most people I I disagree.
committees before it is presented to the legislative body to be debated and voted upon. If that items passes through the representative side of the building it must then survive the same process on the Senate side of our Capital before it becomes law. A change in the Seventh District office recently occurred due to Attorney General Hawley being elected as a United States Senator (a trickledown effect). Attorney General Hawley was elected U.S. Senator, followed by Treasurer Eric Schmidt being appointed as attorney general. Budget Chairman Scott Fitzpatrick was appointed state treasurer and, finally, Cody Smith appointed the budget chairman. In the past, Legislative Assistant Andrew Adkins had worked for both District 7 and 163. But with the moves, he has followed Rep. Cody Smith to the budget chairman’s office. I am happy that Andrew had this opportunity and I
wish him well. We recently employed Ashley Wright to serve the Seventh District as our Legislative Assistant. Ashley is a wife and mother of two and a member of the Air Force Reserves for 12 years now. Another new face in the office is an intern from University of Missouri-Columbia, Jensen Peel. Jensen is a junior at Mizzou and majoring in agriculture economics with an emphasis in public policy. As always, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact my office. Also, you can follow me on social media. 573-751-2917 rusty.black@house.mo.gov Twitter: @rep_rusty Facebook: RustyBlack My legislative director, Ashley Wright, or I will be happy to assist in any way that we can. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to serve the Seventh District of the Missouri House.
know, myself included, get frustrated if a package isn’t delivered right away. Or, maybe you have prescription medication that has been mailed to you – waiting an additional day or two just isn’t going to cut it. Many folks who need that medication are unable to travel long distances; delivering it to their door at an affordable cost as soon as possible is critical. This affects small businesses, too. Many of the most successful businesses in rural areas depend on the postal service to deliver the items they’ve ordered, or ship the products they’ve made, in a timely fashion. In north Missouri, Saturday mail delivery is still critical to our success and necessary for our way of life. Last week, I helped introduce bipartisan legislation to express the sentiment of the House of Representatives that six-day
mail delivery must be preserved. I introduced a similar bipartisan bill in 2017 with 258 co-sponsors. Not much is bipartisan in Washington anymore, but keeping six-day mail delivery certainly has broad support. There is no doubt that the postal service needs to make some major reforms to remain a viable service. It’s not good government to maintain the status quo if it is leading to major financial issues. However, there are plenty of ways to reform the USPS without eliminating Saturday mail delivery. That won’t fix the problem; it will only make it worse. It’s important that the USPS right their financial ship. However, doing so at the expense of rural America should not be an option. The USPS needs to take all necessary measures to make sure that we still see mail delivery on Saturdays in north Missouri.
HIGHLIGHTS WITH HEGEMAN 12th District State Sen. Dan Hegeman Room 332, State Capitol Jefferson City, MO 65101 Phone: 573-751-1415 dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov
BUILDING A BUDGET THROUGH THE GOVERNOR’S PRIORITIES Each year, the Missouri General Assembly passes a state operating budget, designating how billions of taxpayer dollars are spent on public services and investments. Even though the 2019 legislative session has only just begun, that process is already underway. On the day of the State of the State address, the governor outlined his budget recommendations. Though constructing the state operating budget is ultimately a legislative process, the General Assembly often works alongside the governor’s office to find the best way to appropriate public funds. As chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I look forward to working with the governor on crafting a smart and efficient budget that meets the needs of all Missourians. In his speech, the governor highlighted the need to improve and maintain Missouri’s vast transportation network and infrastructure needs. I applaud the governor’s initiative in these areas. I’ve long been a strong proponent of expanding access to high-speed broadband inter-
net and investing in water infrastructure projects. Additionally, Missouri’s highways and bridges need to be properly maintained. By spending money now on preventive maintenance, we can save money in the long run by avoiding the need for costly repairs. The governor also announced his support for a 3 percent pay increase for all state employees. Currently, Missouri has some of the lowest paid state employees in the nation. That’s a shame, because it makes it much harder to retain talented workers. This is particularly true for our state corrections officers, who are severely undervalued for the amount of work they do to keep the rest of us safe. We should do what we can to support these hardworking folks. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns. My capitol office number is 573-751-1415, my email address is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.

ther will help you and your fiance get closer to your son. Dear Annie: We have a close friend who always blows her nose vehemently at the dinner table at least several times while we are eating. Is this appropriate dinner behavior, or should we ask her nicely to excuse herself when she needs to clean her sinuses? We really need your advice, as other guests are also repulsed. -- Handkerchief Mary Dear Handkerchief Mary: First off, I'm assuming your dinner guest has her own handkerchief, because if she doesn't and is using a napkin that was designed to lightly wipe one's mouth on her nose, you have even bigger problems. Assuming she has her own handkerchief or tissues, it is truly not too much to ask that she excuse herself for a moment to blow her nose in the bathroom. Any bodily functions should be performed away from the dinner table. That most definitely includes blowing your nose or even discussing it. Pull your friend aside and tell her that you realize she may have some sinus issues but you'd appreciate it if she could refrain from

So we split up. The good news is that I have a fiance who treats me and my son like gold. The problem is that I don't speak to the father of my child because of the way he treats me and because my fiance has an issue with it. My ex's mother has my son, and I am currently fighting for custody. Should I be speaking to only her about my child, or should I be speaking to the father, as well? Please help me out with this. -- Confused Mom Dear Confused Mom: Congratulations on finding someone who treats you and your son like gold. What a blessing. Still, your ex-husband is your son's father. Assuming there is no physical threat or danger, try to be as civil to your ex as possible. He gave you the gift of a beautiful child. If your fiance has a problem with that, just explain to him that your son and his well-being come first and that being polite to his fa2,680

blowing her nose at the table. Let her know that this rule applies to all guests and not just her. It's not only more polite but also more sanitary for all parties involved. Dear Annie: This is in response to "Shortchanged," the woman annoyed by one roommate shortchanging her when paying a share of the utility bills. She should report to her roommates an amount that is rounded up on even-numbered months and rounded down on odd-numbered months. That way, people wouldn't have to type the pennies, and it should average out over time. -- Adam J. Dear Adam: Wish I'd thought of this handy, simple and drama-free solution for "Shortchanged" in the first place. Thanks for writing. Dear Annie: This is in response to "Bummed-Out Bibliophile," whose shelves are full of unread books. Another option for this person is to make a list of the books, donate them to the local library and check them out as needed. That way, the public library would be helped, and others could also enjoy the books. Our public libraries are a treasure. Sharing is caring! -- Rhea L. in Illinois Dear Rhea: Indeed it is. What a brilliant and practical suggestion. Thanks for writing.

Ryanair is encountering more financial turbulence. Europe’s biggest airline by passengers last week issued its second profit warning in four months, blaming a bigger than expected drop in ticket prices. The discount airline cut its forecast for profits in the 2019 fiscal year by about 100 million euros ($114 million), to between 1 billion euros and 1.1 billion euros. That’s a downgrade from its previous forecast last autumn of 1.1 billion to 1.2 billion euros. Ryanair’s shares slumped to a four-year
low on the news. CEO Michael O’Leary said he was “disappointed,” and added he “cannot rule out further cuts” to airfares or slightly lowering the profit forecast even more before the airline’s financial year ends in March. Ryanair said it expects winter ticket prices to fall 7 percent, more than the 2 percent drop previously forecast, a sign that cutthroat competition in Europe’s budget airline market is putting pressure on fares even as passenger traffic grows.
