INSIDE THIS ISSUE:

Pardon my English, but most small-town county fairs ain’t what they used tobe, simply because of declining popula-tions in many rural areas. That typicallymeans fewer 4-H clubs and fewer 4-H par-ticipants in the many competitive cate-gories that add that flavor to a county fair.However the Renville County Pork Pro-ducers certainly added flavor to mycounty’s fair this year.

Under the tutelage of pork producerBlair Anderson, the group conducted theirfirst-ever Pork Barbeque Ribs contest.Six individuals plus three local restau-rants’ chefs competed.

Can you imagine the sensory delight of even beingclose to their various grills as these nine contestantswere doing their “special prep work” on their rack ofribs? The evening of Aug. 20was a good time to behanging out at the Renville County Fair. I bring thisup because so often it’s not what you know but whoyou know that adds spice to life. I got asked to be oneof four judges of this absolutely lip-smacking event.

It worked like this: we judges were seated at around table and about every 5 minutes a plate offreshly-grilled ribs was brought to our table. We thenused our fingers to pull the ribs apart; finger-lickingwas permitted. And we tasted, and tasted, andtasted. Seemed at least three to four delicate piecesof pork were needed by each of us to properly scoreeach contestant.

Our points were based on appearance, taste andtenderness. So think about this huge chore, thisincredible challenge, this mentally taxing exercise.But don’t think long. I’ve never ever enjoyed being ajudge as much as this pork rib event.

Much to our surprise, and satisfaction, all four ofus selected the same contestant as No. 1. But therewas absolutely no agreement on No. 2 and No. 3. Sowhat happened to all the ribs not devoured by thejudges? Anderson and committee made them avail-able in a separate taste contest for the public, whichvery rapidly rushed to the serving tables when theybecame aware of “free ribs” just for the tasting. Nope,the public didn’t agree with our top choice. But whocares? Everyone enjoyed the event.

Judge Lamont Jacobson (also a Renville Countycommissioner) with his first experience as a grilledpork rib judge said, “It was a lot of fun. I think the

various cooks went all out to make usaware of the delicious taste of freshlygrilled pork. I wouldn’t mind doing thisagain.” Said Laura Fox, a college studentand daughter of Renville County Commis-sioner Bob Fox, “It was a great event. Iwas very thrilled to have the opportunityto be a judge. I think each competitor dida nice job of preparing their racks.” Andjudge and pork-producer Mary Peichelsaid, “Being involved in the pork industry,I felt it my civic duty to come here andjudge this event. I had a great time. And

yes, pork is absolutely delicious!”

I understand this type of competitionis “old hat” for a few county fairs where

pork is king, such as the Martin County Fair in Fair-mont, Minn., where I’m told several hundred peopleget involved in the tasting pleasure of freshly grilledpork ribs. So hats off to the pork industry. Goodthoughts start with good public relations and there’sno doubt in my mind that “the other white meat”really gets front and center recognition when itcomes to grilling competition.

The haircutOne day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.

After the cut, he asked about his bill and the barberreplied, “I cannot accept money from you becausethis week I’m doing community service.” The floristwas pleased and left the shop. When the barberopened his shop the next morning there was a“thank you” card and a dozen roses.

Later, a police officer came in for a haircut andwhen he tried to pay his bill, the barber againreplied, “I cannot accept your money, I’m doing com-munity service this week.” The cop was happy andleft the shop. The next morning when the barberopened his shop there was a “thank you” card and adozen donuts waiting for him.

Then a Congressman came in for a haircut. Whenhe went to pay his bill, the barber again said, “I can-not accept money from you. I’m doing communityservice this week.” The Congressman was very happyand left the shop. The next morning when the barberwent to open up, there were a dozen other membersof Congress lined up each waiting for a free haircut.

A day does not pass withoutsome Big Ag chieftain or Capi-tol Hill yakker parting theirperpetually pursed lips tounleash total nonsense on you,me and the body politic.

To wit the following quote,an answer given by a memberof the U.S. Senate to an Aug.25 question on who will domi-nate 2012 farm bill discus-sions, Congress’s aggies or itsappropriators:

“I think they will wel-come our suggestions andif we put together a farmbill that meets the number that’s all that’s requiredof us, except that we are going to point out, we’regoing to do a great job, I don’t want to say reform, Ijust say that we’re going to do a great job to doeverything to streamline, to combine purpose andcombine programs when you have 10 or 12 programsthat do the same thing.”

That this is what passes for informed commentarytoday is more important than the identity of themumble-mouth commenter. It also explains why youcan stop wondering how we got into today’s swampand start wondering why you still think this group offull-time lip flappers and part-time thinkers isgonna’ find a way out.

They won’t.And they won’t because, like zombies, they are

committed to the dead-end process that got us here:politics first, solutions second.

Worse, these masters of disaster seem bulletproofto shame and embarrassment. An Aug. 16 GallupPoll showed only 13 percent of all Americansapproved of Congress. As if to highlight the record offailure, a staggering 56 percent of all House mem-bers did not hold one town hall meeting the entirerecess month of August, according to NoLabel.org.

What’s remarkable about these supporting facts isthat “Somehow 13 percent of Americans still approveof Congress,” commented the Los Angeles Times, andmore than 190 House members (59 percent of allDemocrats, 50 percent of all Repubs) were so busylast month that they could not spare one day to meettheir bosses, the public.

We know what some were doing because GOPleader Eric Cantor of Virginia alerted the media Aug.28 to his party’s top legislative priority when Con-gress returns from its month of sloth and junkets —a partisan attack on the “costly bureaucratic hand-cuffs that Washington has imposed upon businesspeople who want to create jobs.”

The biggest problem facing America today is“bureaucratic handcuffs?” (See

To the Editor: When you have a

problem is it moreimportant to find a person to blame, or to find asolution?

In our current recession President Obama andthe Democrats blamed President Bush and theRepublicans, which is considered good politics —always blame the other party for the bad things,and take credit for the good. Next it was the insur-ance industry, the banks, business, rich people, theTea Party, drug companies, low taxes, Congress, etc.

I’m reminded about the story of the wild pigs inthe forest.

The villagers loved to catch them; they were deli-cious. The only problem was that the pigs were wilyand you could never get near them. But a fellowcame along and told the villagers that he could getthem all if they gave him a little time. He took somecorn out into the forest and just threw it out ontothe ground. It didn’t take long for the pigs to findthe corn and every day he took more out to them.

He put up a few fence posts around the area, thengradually a fence — adding an open gate. Hewaited until those trusting pigs were eating theirfree corn and closed the gate. The villagers said thepigs were very tasty.

For many years now the federal government paid56 percent of the cost of welfare for the states whilethe state and local governments shared the other 44percent.

The Fed sets the standards and rules. The federalgovernment pays a big portion of highway construc-tion costs, but they set the rules and prevailingwages. If a local government wants a new buildingor project the Feds will pay part of the costs, butthey set the rules. Our medical bills are now going tobe paid by the federal government, but they set therules.

The federal government is now borrowing 40 per-cent of the money that they are “giving” to us. This isa mortgage on every person in the country for manyyears to come. The dollars that many of us have putaway for our retirement will not buy very much inthe years to come.

Republicans, Tea Party members and many con-servative Democrats are coming to understand thatnothing is free.

It’s hard for many of us to listen to the presidentwhen in one speech he says “there is nothing that wecan’t do if we all get together” and in the next he isadding a new group as enemies.

OPINION

Letter: Nothing is free — Federal government pays the costs, sets the rules

GUEBERT, from pg. 3Ahttp://agpolicy.org/weekcol/578.html — the Aug. 26Policy Pennings column by University of Tennessee’sDaryll Ray and Harwood Schaffer that challengesthe “new regulation” myths in ag.)

Little wonder nearly nine out of 10 Americans dis-approve of Congress; they know the truth: Congressisn’t just dysfunctional; it actually believes its dys-function is useful.

It will get worse. In a blistering, Aug. 29 essay onTruthdig.org, Chris Hedges, a Pulitzer Prize-winningjournalist who spent nearly 30 years reporting frommore than 50 countries, forlornly labels the comingyear in American politics as “The Election March ofthe Trolls.” (www.truthdig.com/chris_hedges)

You’ll see it, he predicts, when “… everywhere thepulse of the nation is being assiduously monitoredthrough polls and focus groups, not because our opin-ions matter, but because our troll candidates under-stand that by parroting back to us our own view-points they can continue to spend their days lappingup corporate money with other trolls in the twohouses of Congress, the White House, the SupremeCourt and television studios where they chat withtroll celebrity journalists.”

That’s a far more insightful commentary of today’sfilthy, me-first politics than the baloney-filled non-sense spouted by Sen. Pat Roberts when asked aboutthe 2012 farm bill.

I was wrong; names matter. After all, trolls are onthe march.

By DICK HAGENThe Land Staff Writer

Handling grain is a year-roundactivity for farmers, as is the need topractice safety.

Each year there are stories of peoplebecoming trapped in stored grain, butthese accidents can be prevented.Even when they are not prevented, thevictims can be rescued.

Dan Neenan, manager of the NationalEducation Center for Agricultural Safety,demonstrated NECAS’s mobile “grain res-cue”system at Farmfest.

Neenan’s team had a grain bin,shelled corn, appropriate equipmentfor rescuing a “victim” from a grainbin, plus actual participants for eachof the six shows he did each day at theDeKalb exhibit.

Neenan said the rescue system hasbeen functioning at various farm shows,fairs, community safety events, etc., forabout a year but they’ve been doinghands-on training with fire depart-ments, co-op elevators, 4-H and FFAgroups, etc., for over 15 years.

In this visit with The Land, Neenanstressed the importance of timing when doing rescuework. A high-capacity conveyor can move enough grainto submerge a 6-foot-tall man in only 15 seconds. “Eventhough we’re aware of survivor rescues when they havebeen completely submerged for as long as 2 1/2 hours,timing is so critical,” he said

For partial entrapment time involved dependsupon how deeply the person is trapped. With grain atthe knee and higher it simply becomes more difficultand more time demanding.

“For a 165-pound person trapped to their waist, ittakes 465 pounds of upward pressure to extract thatperson,” Neenan said. “So if you had only two peoplein the bin trying to do that rescue without any equip-ment, they too would actually sink before getting thevictim out. If that person is trapped to their neck, thelifting force is 900 pounds.

“Realizing the force required, don’t attempt to pullthe person out of the grain. The answer is to drainthe grain from around the person,” he said.

The Farmfest display showed the use of grain res-cue tubes which create a coffer dam around the vic-tim. Then a standard shop vac is used to vacuum thegrain from the inside of the rescue tubes until thegrain gets down below the victim’s knees. “At thatpoint, he should be able to step out, or be lifted outwith assist from the rescuers.”

The challenge in most grain bin rescues is not hav-ing access to the 4-foot long metal rescue tubes (foursections that assemble into a 3-foot diameter silo)which are worked down around the victim’s bodyand clamped together preventing additional grainfrom sliding around the victim as grain is vacuumedfrom inside the tubing.

Neenan said only 6 to 8 percent of U.S. fire depart-

ments nationally now have purchased these rescuetubes because they’ve only been on the market forabout five years. “But we’re seeing a big push nowtoward getting these units in place with more fire

departments and eleva-tors, plus trained in theprocedures to handlethese entrapments.”A set of these rescuetubes costs approxi-mately $2,700. Manyrural fire departments

conduct special fund raising proj-ects to get themselves equipped.

In 2010, agriculture experienced 551 fatalitiesnationwide with 47 being grain bin entrapments,plus there were 70,000 disabling injuries. Accordingto Purdue University researchers, 2010 was thedeadliest in decades for grain bin accidents. Tractorrollovers still are the No. 1 source of injuries andfatalities in agriculture.

NECAS urges these safety precautions:• Stay out of bins.• Turn off augers before entering bins.• Provide a body harness with lifeline for anyone

going into a grain bin.• Make sure there is someone outside the bin who

can help if something goes wrong.National Farm Safety & Health Week is Sept. 18-

24. For more information, log on to the NationalEducation Center for Agricultural Safety website,www.necasag.org, call (888) 844-6322, or writeNECAS, 10250 Sundown Road, Peosta, IA 52068.

Nobody plans tohave a farm acci-dent.

Nobody wants tobe disabled as theresult of an acci-dent.

But, as they say,“stuff” happens.

When that “stuff” happens, AgrAbilityis there to help you keep farming.

“AgrAbility has been around since1990, but how many people even knowthat it exists?,” asked Dan Stores, assis-tive technology program manager forEquipALife in Maple Plain, Minn.AgrA-bility is a collaboration between the U.S.Department of Agriculture, the Univer-sity of Minnesota Extension andEquipALife.

“The resources and information avail-able are huge,” Stores said.

Knowing where to turn is a big hurdlefor a producer who has just suffered adebilitating injury, one that may make afurther life as a farmer difficult.

“The main objective of vocational rehabis to keep them working,” Stores said. Inthe case of an injured farmer, that meansfinding a way to make their equipmentaccessible or make sure that they are stillable to perform their chores.

“Farmers are pretty ingenious when itcomes to making things to make theirlives easier,” said Howard Rosten, infor-mation and referral/technology man-ager for SMILES in Mankato, Minn.,the south central Minnesota contact for

the AgrAbility project.“Sometimes we’re just thereto help fill in the gaps.”

Once a farmer has suf-fered an injury that mayhinder their farm work,they need to get in touchwith the AgrAbility Project.This in itself may be a bigstep. “You’d be surprisedhow many disabled farmersthere are,” Stores said.

“There’s pride involved. A lot of disabledfarmers aren’t always looking for help.That’s a barrier sometimes.”

Once they do come forward, an onsiteassessment is done of their farm.

“We come in and take a look at thewhole operation,” Stores said. “It helps tohave a third-party assessment, because alot of time a farmer will just keep tryingto do things the way they always have,even before they suffered their injury.”

When someone thinks of a farm injury,it is common to think of the loss of a limbor mobility, but farm injuries go beyondthat. “We had one farmer who walkedwith a cane, and we found out a solutionfor helping him was as simple as puttinga cane holder on every tractor or com-bine, so that when he got up there, he hada place to put his cane, and it was alwaysaccessible for him,” Stores said.

Some injury cases are a little morecomplicated than that.

“As part of the assessment, we need tohelp the farmer prioritize what they‘need.’ They may have a list of 50 thingsthat would make their life and work eas-ier, but more than likely, they are notgoing to get all 50,” Stores said. “We can

help them prioritize that down to maybe10 things that they really need.” Maybethey’d like a lift for every tractor, but theymay only get a lift for the tractors theyuse most often.

The assessment process also helps thefarmers take a hard look at their opera-tion. “We want to keep them on the farm,but due to their injury, they may need tolook at a change in their operation,” Ros-ten said. “If farming is no longer a viableoption, we will also assist the farmer inmaking a career change.”

Rosten and Stores shared the story of acrop and livestock farmer who sufferedan injury, that in the end resulted in histurning over the livestock portion to oth-ers in the family operation. “He was ableto keep working on the crop production,”Stores said.

Ergonomics is the science of design-ing the job, equipment and workplaceto fit the worker.

By applying ergonomic principles inthe workplace, we reduce the likelihoodthat workers of all ages will experiencea musculoskeletal disorder and helpensure that workers of all ages staysafe, comfortable and productive.

Work-related musculoskeletal disor-ders can occur when tasks are repeti-tive, require awkward postures toaccomplish or require excessive force.

A work-related musculoskeletal dis-order can range from mild muscleaches and pains to long-term disablinghealth problems, including carpal tun-nel syndrome, tendinitis, rotator cuffsyndrome and chronic back injuries,among others.

A third of injuries that cause thosewho farm to miss work are sprains andstrains; and a quarter of them are backinjuries. Work practices, which causesuch musculoskeletal disorders, notonly hurt workers’ health, but alsoaffect workers’ earnings and growers’profits.

The resources listed below include toolsand other simple solutions to improvesafety and reduce musculoskeletal disor-ders while maintaining or improvingwork efficiency. The first two resourcesinclude various two-page tip sheets offer-ing ergonomic solutions for specific prob-lems.

Many of these ideas can be adaptedfor many types of crops and for differ-ent sized farm operations. Someinclude cost analyses and explain howto adapt existing equipment for newuses, as well as resources for purchas-ing equipment.

Most of these ideas have come fromthe collaborative effort between grow-

ers, farm workers and universityresearchers. Educators have used themto introduce their agricultural engi-neering students to ergonomics and asa guide for projects. You can, too.

Ergonomics — Smart movesfor safe, efficient work

By RICHARD SIEMERSThe Land Correspondent

“I’ve been bow-hunting for 30-plus years,” saidRandy Van Overbeke. “I bow-hunted whitetails somuch and loved the animal so much that the nextstep for me was to raise them.”

That’s how Van Overbeke explains how he got intoraising whitetail deer. He and his wife, Susan, oper-ate Redwood River Whitetails. They have more than200 deer on their deer farm at Russell, Minn.

It may sound exotic, but “it’s like other livestockbusiness,” said Susan,who grew up on a live-stock farm in SouthDakota. “We sell breddoes, open does, buckfawns, doe fawns,breeder bucks and tro-phy bucks.”

The trophy bucks goto hunting preserves,the rest to otherbreeders. Susan is sec-retary-treasurer of theMinnesota DeerBreeders Association.Their website listsaround 150 breedersin the state.

These deer are considered livestock. They are notdomesticated animals, the Van Overbekes point out,but neither are they wild deer that have beenpenned up. Their deer are 30 generations removedfrom their wild ancestors.

They certainly aren’t tame animals, nor do theywant them to be. The deer recognize a four-wheelerand a golf cart when they drive down the alleybetween the pens, so that doesn’t spook them, butthey said that a person walking down the alleywould send the deer running for the opposite side ofthe pen.

“I can walk into their pens up to the feeder andthey stand and watch,” Randy said. “If I step beyondtheir feeders, they take off running.”

Still, they are considered livestock in Minnesotaand are regulated as such.

“We’re the most highly regulated agricultural live-stock,” Susan said.

They test and register all of their animals. Everythree years they test for tuberculosis and brucellosis,and every animal over the age of 12 months that diesis sent in to be tested for chronic wasting disease.

All of the testing, vaccinating and worming makesa healthy herd.

“It makes it kind of difficult, too,” Randy said. “Awhitetail is prone to stress. When you start runningthem through chutes, they get stressed out, and caneven die from stress.”

The Van Overbeke’s have been raising whitetailsfor five-and-a-half years. This fall they will sell theirsecond crop of trophy bucks to the preserves.

WHITETAIL, from pg. 11A

They have seven breeding bucks, and most of theirbreeding is natural. They artificially breed to bringother genetic lines into the herd, or other traits of theantlers. When they artificially breed, they are hopingto have doe fawns to carry on the new genetics. Thisyear they had all buck fawns out of their artificiallybred does.

“You picture the nice buck you like to see, and that’swhat you breed for,” Randy said. “The average deer inthe wild is probably about 150-inch antler size.”(Antler size combines the length of the tines and thebeam, four circumference lengths and the insidespread.)

“The average that preserves sell is probably arounda 150- to 180-inch buck since most people can afford itat that class,” Susan said. “We have several over 200inches this year.”

Some breeders are now going for huge size, but theVan Overbekes want a buck that still looks like awhitetail deer.

“We would like to achieve a 200-inch plus maturebuck at 3 to 4 years old that is nicely typical and bal-anced in his overall look,” Susan said.

What does it take to raise whitetail deer? Randysaid it takes a good marriage, a lot of money, and a lotof patience and time. To that Susan added a lot ofknowledge, a lot of research, a lot of contacts and a lotof internet time.

“The thing about deer farming is that you have toinvest for a long time before you see dividends,”Randy said. “It’s a long-term commitment.”

Randy also hopes that some day it will be a full-time commitment. For now, he raises deer while con-tinuing his other full-time profession, landscaping.

After years of hunting, Randy thought he knewwhitetail deer, but he’s still learning.

“They are very dangerous,” he said. “When they aregrowing up and have velvet antlers, they are mellowand friendly. Once they get hard horns and theirtestosterone level gets up there, they are very aggres-sive animals. They could pin you against the gate andkill you. The whitetail has a temper that is unbeliev-able, and they don’t forget easily.”

“He thought he knew a lot about whitetails after hehunted them for years,” Susan said. “Now he knows alot more — how they sound, how they act, what theydo.”

“And how not to trust them,” he said.

If the meat business had a hall offame, John Story would be in it.

Which is to say, there is, and he is.In November, the retired super-

market company executive andMankato, Minn., resident will beinducted into the Meat IndustryHall of Fame, which annually hon-ors leaders from all sectors of the livestock, meat andpoultry processing industries.

Story, who will be among 12 inductees at cere-monies in Chicago, worked nearly 50 years in theindustry, retiring in 1998 as head of meat and delioperations for Fairway Foods.

He will join past hall-of-famers that include Ken-tucky Fried Chicken founder Col. Harland Sanders,McDonald’s founder Ray Kroc, Hormel Foods Presi-dent Joel Johnson, country singer Jimmy Dean, whobecame a breakfast sausage magnate and a spate offood scientists, professors and others who made sig-nificant contributions to the industry.

Hall of Fame President Chuck Jolley said Story wasinstrumental in the establishment of nationwidemeat-merchandising standards to benefit consumers.

“When he got started in the supermarket businessback in the ’50s the ideawas that you just threwsome meat in a meatcase and stood back andlet people buy it. Johnwas one of the pioneersin meat-case merchan-dising,” Jolley said.

Michigan nativeStory said the work hedid as a member of theUniform Meat IdentityStandards committeehelped bring identifi-cation clarity to shop-pers nationwide.

“Back then the consumers were saying, ‘We don’t knowwhat these cuts are because the names are different indifferent parts of the country.’ A piece of meat wouldhave a name like ‘Grand Steak’ or ‘Hawaiian Steak’ thathad nothing to do with the meat itself,” Story said.

The standards committee ensured that, say, topround steak was identified as such whether it wassold in California, New York or all points in between.

Story’s work with the committee also includeddevelopment of marketing programs for beef andpork producers who heretofore had none.

As an executive with the Upper Midwest chainFairway Foods he helped the company grow meatsales from $10 million to $120 million annually overthe span of 18 years.

ELMA, Iowa — Edna Ferberimmortalized growing produce inher 1924 Pulitzer winning book“So Big.” Now almost a centurylater, wholesale produce auctionsare regaining popularity. Iowanow boasts at least three. Theyare more common in the easternstates.

The rural communities of Elma,Kalona and Wapsie Valley havegiven their farmers an opportu-nity to vend their vegetables.

“The Cedar Valley Produce Auc-tion house opened here at Elma in2003,” said General ManagerIvan Martin. “The building wasconstructed a year before.” Elmais located in Howard County innortheast Iowa.

Martin said the auction house isorganized as a cooperative withshareholders. To be a shareholder,$5,000 of produce must be soldthrough the auction house. Each of the 44 share-holders has one vote.

A good share of the shareholders are Amish orMennonite families. Consistent with their religiousbeliefs, some of the produce is brought to the auc-

tion house with a horse and buggy or steel-wheeledtractor. Steel wheels on tractors do not promote trav-eling; but encourage families to stay home and worktogether.

Such was a major component to the building of the

Cedar Valley Produce Auction,said David Oberhetzer, whoplayed a role in organizing thecooperative.

“Growing corn and soybeansdidn’t always pay the bills, sowe sought out something thatwould provide an income, yetallow families to work together,”he said. “Produce auctionsworked good in Pennsylvania.”Many of these families hadcome from Pennsylvania, wherethey were familiar with thegrowing and selling of produce.

Auction days are Monday atnoon, Wednesday and Fridayat 10 a.m. “The season beginsin April with bedding plants,flowers and just a little pro-duce. Sale days get longer asmore and more produce comesin.” He tries to limit sales tofive hours.

Produce is packaged in boxesthat can be purchased at theauction house. This allows for

a uniform size when auctioning. Each consignmentis given the number of the consignor. Regular con-signors have their same number each day.

Customers show up for reasons as varied as the pro-duce they buy. Some come just to purchase for theirfresh vegetable needs, others to stock their grocerystore shelves, or their tables at a farmers market. Theymay know that on a particular day they have time tocan tomatoes, so off to the market they go to purchasea few bushels of the fresh, locally grown fruit.

As the calendar changes to September, Martin seesa large variety of produce coming in — tomatoes,cantaloupes, watermelons, onions, green beans,cucumbers, potatoes, acorn squash, spaghetti squashand even a few pumpkins.

An atmosphere of county fair excitement prevailsduring their pumpkin sale day, scheduled for Sept.21. Flatbeds, wagons and any others sorts of con-veyance will be heaped high with the harvest colorsand shapes of winter squash, pumpkins and otherstaples of fall eating and decorating.

“It is a big day,” said Martin, the auction’s generalmanager. “We sell the bulk of the pumpkins grownon that day.”

The produce auction has been successful in its fewyears in Iowa. In 2010, sales exceeded the $2 millionmark. That will likely continue, especially with satis-fied customers such as Jim Mohr.

Mohr, of Auburn, Iowa, travels the 190 miles eachsale day. He resells the produce at his farm marketstand that he has had for 21 years at the Junction ofHighways 71 and 175.

“I used to grow everything myself, but these fami-lies ... are professionals. Their produce is at a betterquality than I can grow myself. I never miss a sale.”

Colleen Zenk, director of Nutritionand Consumer Information of theMinnesota Beef Council, relishes heropportunities to tell the story of agri-culture and nutrition. She recentlyconducted a culinary workshop atWorthington, Minn., for foodservicedirectors, nutrition consultants andfood handlers.

Here are excerpts from an interviewwith Zenk.

Q: I’m hearing some food nutri-tionists, food scientists, even doc-tors suggesting that concernsabout red meat in the diet are“false alarms.” Are we recogniz-ing that red meat could, in fact,be the best way to reduce dia-betes, obesity and other relatedsymptoms occurring in a growingpercentage of the U.S. popula-tion?

A: You bet. The studies that I haveseen really encourage a balanced diet.No one food can provide everythingwe need to be healthy. Lean meat,particularly red meat, has nutrientsthat are very difficult to get fromother foods. Studies show that if weeat lean meat/protein — a little more

of it, and more often — it helpsus control our weight, preventmuscle loss as we age and canassist in controlling blood sugar.With the increasing rates of car-diovascular disease, diabetesand obesity, lean meat can be akey component in conqueringthose diseases.

Q: Should we have an ani-mal identification system so thatconsumers can, if they wish, tracethe origin of the meat they buy atthe local food store?

A: I think so. Consumers want totrust their food supply and feel moreconfident if they know where it comesfrom. The rapid growth of direct farm-to-consumer marketing is good evi-dence. There are great stories to tellabout how family farms raise cropsand livestock. Most consumers relatewell to meeting the farm families thatproduce their food.

Q: What was the main reason foryour culinary workshop, whichincluded a farm tour?

A: We are no longer an agriculturalsociety. Consumers are further andfurther removed from where their foodcomes from. As a result they have

many misconceptions about farming,many questions about farming prac-tices, and want to be assured that theycan trust the food supply.

We hosted this workshop — partner-ing with the Midwest Dairy Associa-tion — to reach out to many of thosewho are in contact with consumers in arole that influences what they eat sowe wanted to make sure that those“nutrition influencers” had accurateinformation.

We also wanted them to meet thepeople who produce their food. Wewanted to change the perception ofwho a “farmer” is today and that farm-ing today is much different today thanit has been. They saw educated menand women with young families whoare very business savvy and who areconstantly updating their methods touse the best science available in ani-mal handling and production.

Q: In your work with the Min-nesota Beef Council, are you see-ing a greater disconnect betweenfood producers and food buyers?

A: Absolutely and with theaccess to the internet, informa-tion — both accurate and mis-leading — is everywhere. Wewant to make sure consumersare getting information based onthe latest science and researchand assist them in makinginformed choices.

Q: Why is this “disconnect”happening?

A: Today we are such an urban popula-tion, with most consumers now three tofour generations removed from the farm.Many adults have never been on a farm— or seen a farm animal up close. Wealso have a lot of activists — or otherswith personal beliefs or agendas — thatcan be very persuasive, even if what theyare promoting isn’t true. People are eas-ily swayed if they don’t have any otherinformation to help them process it.

Q: What needs to be done to rec-tify this situation?

A: Farmers and ranchers need to“sing their own song” or “blow theirown horn” — anyway you want to putit. We can’t just quietly do our workand not help others understand whatwe do. We have to use our voices, visitwith our neighbors, and not be afraidto speak out. Websites such as explore-beef.org help tell our story but we needto use all the media to get our story outthere. Farm visits are great, and theorganizations that promote farm toursare making some headway.

Many factors affect the value ofstraw as bedding or feed. I’m not goingto try to guess at a value per straw butrather identify a couple of concepts toconsider.

For buying out of someone else’s field,you might think about a price per balethat you would pay for straw deliveredto your farm. Subtract any raking, bal-ing, handling and hauling costs. Sub-tract some kind of savings that makesit worthwhile to do the work ratherthan buying straw that is delivered toyour farm.

At the Sauk Centre (Minn.) Hay Auc-tion through the 2010-11 season, it wasnot unusual for large round bales and 3x 3 x 8 bales to sell for $30-45 for cleansolid bales. There were some higherprices, and it’s not always easy to tellfrom reports how much variation theremight be in size, weight or density ofbales.

Some people ask about the value of

nutrients in straw. Here are some val-ues for the pounds of nitrogen, phos-phorous, potassium per ton of dry mat-ter.

Oat straw: N-12, P-6.3, K-37Wheat straw: N-14, P-3.3, K-24Rye straw: N-12, P-3, K-22Barley straw: N-13, P-5.1, K-39Remember the only nutrients that

have value are the ones that areneeded on the field. There can be avalue for leaving organic matter on thefield, but I don’t have a way to put agood dollar value on that. I’d expect tosee bedding market value for straw tobe greater than the nutrient value.

Martens, University of MinnesotaExtension educator for Stearns, Bentonand Morrison (Minn.) counties. He maybe reached at (320) 968-5077, (800)964-4929 or [email protected].

Just what is straw worth?

Consumers want totrust their food supplyand feel more confidentif they know where itcomes from.

Ordinarily a livestock farmer doesn’t argue muchwhen it comes to spreading manure. It’s a chore thatneeds to be done regardless of the weather and regula-tions. But get into larger livestock operations — hog,beef, dairy, turkey — and manure-spreading timebecomes an issue, especially with wet ground.

So does the idea of 20 tons in two minutes havesome appeal? That’s the capacity of two new unitsbeing used by Revier Cattle Co. near Olivia, Minn.“Time is a factor,” said Tom Revier when describingthe new Artex Vertical Spreaders mounted on a cou-ple of their heavy-duty truck chassis.

“We have a strict manure management programdictated by county and (Minnesota Pollution ControlAgency) rules that govern when we can spread, whatslopes and drainage limits, what tillage incorporationafter spreading, even provisions regulating load lim-its on certain township roads. So when it’s spreadtime a bigger, faster unit helps greatly,” he said.

Conveniently for them,Artex Spreaders are assembledjust 18 miles down the road at Redwood Falls. ChettBisel, manager of Redwood Metal Works, a division ofFarms Union Industries, said they’re now producing avariety of Artex units, both pull-type and truck-mounted.

“Many of our wagons are combination boxes capableof handling a variety of products. You need that flexi-bility to justify the costs of these units,” Bisel said.“It’s hard to sell a manure spreader these days to justspread manure when you can offer units that handlesilage, stock pile manure, and even offer an attach-ment for hauling grain in these boxes.”

Artex is a new name to Minnesota agriculture but datesback about 30 years ago to Abbotsford, British Columbia.“The product has stood the test of time and they have con-tinued to improve with new engineering, new refine-ments and additional attachments,” Bisel said.

For example, he said, “we’ve come up with a truckthat we think is set for the future. It’s got a six-pointweigh scale Digit Star NT460 that will read everyload, the spreading rate per acre and per ton, alldownloadable onto your home computer. This machinehas the Air Boss which permits deflating your 60 psiroad pressure down to 14-16 psi in the field whichgreatly reduces soil compaction leaving a virtual ‘zeroimprint’ on the soil. As machinery gets bigger, we’reseeing more evidence of field compaction, especially inheadlands. So tire pressure and tire size on these bigmanure units is really important.”

Revier is running a 22-foot box with high sidewallsthat carries 20-plus tons per fill. Field speeds whenspreading are in that 14 to 18 mph category andspreading about 10 tons per acre. The Reviers match upload size to field size so the truck is empty at the end ofeach run. The axles on that rig are rated at 25 tons peraxle giving a 50,000 pound per axle road rating.

Costs of these innovative Artex boxes vary widelydepending upon the model, and the innovationoptions. Bisel said they tested the vertical spreaderdesign on turkey and poultry litter first knowing thatif it handled those products, other livestock manurewould not be an issue.

Thanks to Mother Nature’s some-what cantankerous mood all springlong — and much of the summer, too— crop insurance claims will likelytake on every dimension imaginablethis year. Your attention to detail willhave a major impact on the effective-ness of your crop insurance policy.This starts with timely submission ofa claim to your agent, following the

protocol and instructions of youradjuster, concluding only after everybushel has been accounted for.

Lee Broderius, assistant vice presi-dent at AgStar in Glencoe, Minn., indi-cated most farmers are now thinkingthe 2011 crop will likely meet orexceed their crop insurance guaran-tees. He added however, “there is agrowing concern about quality, testweights and the likelihood of highlyvariable crop moisture levels.”

QualityCrop insurance policies have some

protection against extremely poorgrain quality. For example, there is aquality adjustment factor used whentest weights for corn drop below 49pounds per bushel. In general, thelower the test weight, the higher dis-count factor applied to a claim. Essen-tially the discount reduces the bushelsthat count against the guarantee, pos-sibly increasing the indemnity for eachstep it drops below 49 pounds.

In addition, there are some toxinsfound in poor-quality corn that canonly be identified in the field, whichmeans a field appraisal is required. Asharvest nears, Broderius suggestedthat producers review the provisions oftheir policy related to quality and dis-cuss concerns with their agent todetermine if a claim should be submit-ted.Claims

If it’s decided to submit a claim, pro-ducers should be sure to sharpen theirpencils prior to harvest. It is impera-tive that good production records arekept. Typically insurance units areidentified by section number and farmname, and time and heartache will besaved if producers keep track of yieldsby these units, according to Broderius.He acknowledged that requirementsspecifying keeping load records andassembly sheets by section and farm isa little extra work, but well worth it inthe long run.Storage

On-farm storage provides a benefit,but it also poses some challenges tocrop insurance claims. One of his con-cerns for clients is the existence of oldcrop still in the bin. “Get it measured,”he said, and cautioned about commin-gling any of this year’s crop with oldcrop. Farmers need to contact theircrop insurance agent to request a binmeasurement. “Farmers cannot

assume that they, their agent, or FarmService Agency can do the measuring,”Broderius said. In all cases, the insur-ance company must authorize a thirdparty or complete the measurementthemselves to maintain the integrity ofa claim. A great rule of thumb: Don’tcommingle old and new crop grainuntil your approval is given.

In situations with spot losses, a pro-ducer might have grain from six fieldsheaded for the same bin. “If one ofthose fields has a loss and that field’sgrain has been put in the middle of thebin,” Broderius said, “it’s impossible todetermine the production from thatfield without load records.”Silage

“For producers planning to chop cornfor silage or combine high-moisturecorn,” he said, “we recommend fieldappraisals prior to harvest.” Thisserves two purposes: identifying poten-tial production losses and third-partyverification for actual production his-tory integrity. “Even if they don’t thinkthey have a bushel claim, we won’tknow until the end of October if theywill have a revenue claim.”

From time to time, an adjuster mayauthorize the use of check strips, butthis is on a case-by-case basis only andis typically dependent on the workloadof the adjuster.

Change for 2011: “We have seen anincrease of silage variety corn for ourdairy operations and in some countiesthose (previously uninsurable) vari-eties are now eligible for federal cropinsurance.”Damaged crops

Regardless of crop condition,Broderius said, producers still need tomanage their crop through harvest.For example, if aphids severely dam-aged a field and it’s questionedwhether it even pays to harvest, thatfield still has to be managed andappraised to validate the claim. “With-out verification of your inputs, youcould lose your claim and even be sub-ject to a penalty,” he said.Bottom line

A paper trail is still the most reliableway to verify what happens in 2011crop insurance claims. Producersshould communicate regularly withtheir agent, identify possible lossesand keep good records. Spending thattime this fall, will help make sure thattrail is clear and accurate.

Grain Angles LaNina dryness

deteriorates cropsU.S. row crops continue to deteriorate as the tail-

end dryness of the La Nina plays out.Growing conditions have been less than ideal for

most of the Corn Belt these last few weeks. The cornmarket has been working to factor this tightening ofsupply into the price. As of thedate of this writing, the Decem-ber corn futures contract hastraded to new contract highprices eight out of the last 11trading days. Aug. 26 the Novem-ber soybean contract broke out ofa long-held, sideways tradingchannel to set a new contracthigh.

If the grain markets continue toclimb, its role will be to ration thesupply by price. Higher priceswill have an impact on the prof-itability of the end-user and willeventually force the weaker play-ers out of the market. This cycle can come back tohaunt the holders of grain, when demand is rationedto the point that end-users are destroyed. They willno longer provide the needed demand to keep thebull market rolling. When this happens, prices willfactor this lack of demand into the price with lowerbids. This can be hard and cruel, yet it is the natureof a free market economy.

The reactions of many in the trade have beenalmost as a matter of fact or “Ho Hum.” The marketvolatility has become so common that it is starting tofeel normal to us in the trade.

I received a telephone call from my brother theother night. We talked about the stock marketvolatility and the world economic scene. He said,

Grain Angles How low will corn

yields go?The following market analysis is for the week end-

ing Sept. 2.CORN — Corn jumped to a new contract high as

we started out the week, but even a three-percentdecline in the weekly crop ratings wasn’t enough tostop funds from cutting theirnet long positions as the U.S.dollar rallied.

Yield estimates continue todecline with one private com-pany estimating the U.S. corncrop at 146.3 bushels per acrewith production at 12.35 billionbushels. Remember on theAugust U.S. Department of Agri-culture report the yield was fore-cast at 153.0 bu./acre for produc-tion of 12.914 billion bushels.

Informa Economics is sched-uled to release their updatedcrop estimates on Sept. 6. The market will be quiteinterested in whether Informa drops their expecta-tion below 150 bu./acre. Informa’s August numberswere 158.0 bu./acre with a crop of 13.0 billionbushels. The trade seems to have already adjustedto a sub-150 yield, so the next question is how lowthe next estimate needs to be to cause a stir amongtraders.

As we closed out the marketing year, weeklyexport sales were a negative 12.6 million bushels forold crop and 37.7 million for new crop (2011-12).Weekly ethanol production was down 16,000 barrelsversus the previous week, but 4 percent higher thana year ago. Brazil announced this week they are low-ering their ethanol requirement in gasoline from 25percent to 20 percent, effective in October. This

Livestock Angles Expect volatility,erratic moves

The livestock markets are still erratic andextremely volatile as we move into the last of August.With all the unsettled issues that effect the economyand thus the livestock markets, the volatility and theerratic moves in these markets are not likely tochange in the near future.

The cattle market has found aweakening trend as we approachthe beginning of September. Thebeef cutouts appear to have runinto resistance once again as theprice moves higher. This hasforced the packers to becomemore cautious in the biddingprocess to acquire live inventory.

The fact that the latest U.S.Department of Agriculture Cat-tle on Feed report indicated thatcattle on feed and placementswere higher than the trade hadanticipated also weighed on the psychology of themarket. The fact that the marketing number wasbetter than the trade thought could counteract theoverall bearishness of the numbers on feed and bringon some underlying strength to the producers to askfor higher money.

The struggle between supply and demand shouldcontinue as bulls stand on the fact that supplies ofcattle will be lower and the bears stand on the factthat domestic demand is continuing to shrink withthe weakening economy. This will set the stage forthe continuation of the extreme volatility and thequick and erratic moves in either direction for theweeks ahead.

Therefore, producers should keep up-to-date onmarket conditions and protect inventories on market

NYSTROM, from pg. 22Acould result in lower U.S.ethanol exports and alleviatesome of the tightness on the balance sheet down theroad. Three major grain companies have announcedin the last couple of weeks that they will not acceptcorn varieties that have not been approved in theEuropean Union. At this juncture, the market hasnot reacted in either direction to these announce-ments.

OUTLOOK: Our short-term resistance at$7.80 was tested this week when December

corn touched $7.79 per bushel. At that level,buyers turned sellers and open interest increased aswe corrected lower. December corn staged an impres-sive $7.79 to $7.37 1/2 weekly range, closing down 7cents at $7.60 for the week. From a technical view-point, December corn’s uptrend is still intact, withsupport at $7.20 and resistance $7.80 to $8 shortterm. Keep in mind the bulls in the market like to be

fed regularly.SOYBEANS — Soybeans quickly jumped higher

as we resumed our work week, and traded mostlysideways from there as we wonder how much scat-tered rains this week helped the crop. Most yieldestimates are falling in the 40 to 42 bu./acre rangewith this week’s latest private estimate coming in at41.1 bu./acre for production of 3.03 billion bushels.The August USDA numbers were 41.4 bu./acre andproduction of 3.056 billion bushels. Informa Eco-nomics will issue new crop estimates on Sept. 6.Informa’s August soybean estimate was 42.5bu./acre and production at 3.139 billion bushels.

Weekly export sales were a disappointment withnothing for old crop and 21.8 million for new crop. Inaddition, it was rumored this week that China mayhave bought up to 1.5 million metric tons of SouthAmerican soybeans for late fall delivery. Taiwan wasbuying soybeans for this fall from South America aswell. This doesn’t bode well for U.S. export sales.

OUTLOOK: November’s short term resistance of$14.55 was pierced this week when November soy-beans hit $14.65 mid-week before consolidating. Forthe week, November beans were up 22 1/4 cents,closing at $14.45 3/4 per bushel. On the weeklychart, the November contract broke higher out ofthe sideways pattern that has existed since Febru-ary. Direction for soybeans may now be about tryingto balance declining yields versus falling demandwith $13.50 to $15 the range.

Nystrom’s notes: The next USDA crop productionreport is Sept. 12. The U.S. non-farm payrolls inAugust were unchanged from July (zero job growth),a bearish economic sentiment since estimates werefor an increase of 68,000 jobs. The unemploymentrate was unchanged also at 9.1 percent. Contractchanges for the week ending Aug. 26: Minneapoliswheat gained 6 cents, Kansas City wheat down 12cents, while Chicago wheat lost 21 1/2 cents. Octo-ber crude oil was $1.08 higher at $86.45, heating oildropped 1.8 cents, gasoline jumped 5.36 cents higherand natural gas ended with a 4-cent loss. As of mid-afternoon Sept. 2, the Dow was down 41 points forthe week, gold was $82.70 higher and the U.S. dollarindex was up a full point.

TEALE, from pg. 22Astrength through the next several months.

The hog market appears to have finally made thatseasonally summer top as prices have dropped dra-matically over the past several weeks. At the sametime pork cutouts have followed the live price andhave fallen from all-time highs. The demand for porkproducts slowed as we moved into those all-timehighs, indicating a reluctance from retailers toacquire product due to shrinking retail demand.

The futures market is definitely indicating the fear

that the number of hogs is on the increase as well asthe shrinking domestic demand. Seasonally the hogmarket has had a tendency to weaken into the fallmonths and this year appears to be no different.From time to time the expectation that furtherexport demand will surface and create shortstrength in the market, but overall it would appearthat the cash side of the market will continue tomove toward the lower futures prices.

Producers should continue to remain current andlook at strategies to protect live inventories.

Pork cutouts follow live price from highs

NEHER, from pg. 22A“Several years ago, when the stock market wouldhave a 200-point day; I considered that a big move.Now we have back-to-back 500-point swing days andit feels like normal.”

Have we become complacent or just grown numb tomarket volatility? Or are we just learning to managethe volatility more gracefully than we did in 2008?We can only hope that the answer is the latter andthat we have become stronger managers, by bettermanaging our margins. If we are rewarding compla-cency with inaction, we may find ourselves “withouta chair when the music stops.”

Ed Usset, of the Center for Farm Financial Man-agement, has a cast of celebrity marketing players inhis “Winning the Game” educational offering. One of

those players is Hank Holdem.Hank never sells any of his crops pre-harvest and

he holds the crop, un-priced until he has to clean outhis bins to make room for the new crop right beforeharvest. Then he sells his crops across the scale, tak-ing the going price. Hank wins once in a while, buthas the poorest marketing record over time. Yet,Hank was the winner in 2008 and the last two years.We can’t argue with the facts, but we can look at theprobability or odds of his luck having run its course.

We are challenged to keep our management skillssharp and nimble. The financial decisions that wemake over the next several years may impact thenext several decades. Let’s not become complacentduring these times of tremendous volatility andopportunity. Keep looking for the Grain Anglesaround every corner.

This column was written for themarketing week ending Sept. 2.

The farm benchmark milk price hashit the highest level ever, topping lastmonth’s record and highs set fouryears ago. The U.S. Department ofAgriculture announced the Augustfederal order Class III price at $21.67

per hundredweight, up 28 cents fromJuly, $6.49 above August 2010, $3.07above California’s 4b cheese milk price,and equates to about $1.86 per gallon.That put the 2011 average at $18.18,up from $13.80 at this time a year agoand $10.29 in 2009.

The strong prices are being offset in

part by strong feed prices,more on that ahead, butClass III futures portend adownturn from here. TheSeptember contract wastrading late Friday morningat $19.05; October was at$18.90; November, $18.62;and December at $18.10.

The August Class IV priceis $20.14, down 19 centsfrom July, but $4.53 above ayear ago. California’s August4a price was $20.23.

Hurricane Irene left her mark onpretty much everyone and dumped 6-12inches of rain over New England causingsevere flooding and power outages fromeastern New York to southern Maine.What an irony to name a hurricane“Irene,” a name that means “peace.”

Vermont’s governor said his state wasfacing “a full-blown flooding catastro-phe.” Many roads were closed due towashouts, downed trees and bridgesbeing damaged or destroyed. Somecommunities in the Northeast werewithout power for over 96 hours. Milkpick-ups remain difficult and in somespots impossible so milk was beingdumped. The full extent of the loss anddamage has yet to be determined butmanufacturing milk supplies were atnear-normal levels as the week beganas many producers shipped prior to thestorms arrival, the USDA said.

Meanwhile, milk production across thecountry continues to trend seasonallylower, according to the USDA. Northeastweather patterns were conducive tosteady production but the arrival of hurri-cane Irene was driving fluid sales up anddown the East Coast, although the lack ofelectricity in many area homes and busi-nesses was expected to slow those sales.

Southeast hot temperatures were

impacting milk productionand imports into Florida wereincreasing, according to theUSDA.

Milk output in the centralUnited States has bouncedback somewhat fromdeclines during the extremeheat of a few weeks ago. Cal-ifornia and the Southwestproduction was beingimpacted by hot tempera-tures but output in the

Pacific Northwest wasrunning well aboveyear-ago levels. Mild

temperatures andincreased cow numbers have added tothe milk supply.

Students are returning to the class-room in most areas, thus bottlingpipelines are again filling. This activitywill continue the next two to threeweeks. At this time, manufacturingmilk volumes decline greatly, thuscheese and other manufacturers ofdairy products reduce productionschedules until the bottling pipelinesare filled/balanced and surplus milkvolumes are once again available.

The rally in cash cheese continued inthe final week of August, mainly on thebarrels. The blocks closed Sept. 2 at$1.79 per pound, unchanged on theweek but 7 cents above a year ago, andnarrowed the spread which may bewhat traders wanted to accomplish.The barrels closed at $1.76, up 3.75cents on the week, and 7.5 cents abovea year ago. Four cars of block and 18 ofbarrel traded hands on the week. TheNASS U.S. average block price fell 3.9cents, to $2.0929, while the barrelsaveraged $2.0827, down 6.6 cents.

■

eDairy economist Bill Brooks warnedin Tuesday’s DairyLine that the lower$1.70s in cheese is a real possibilitynear-term. He said “the last two to two-and-a-half weeks we have seen a realflip in the supply-demand situation incheese.”

Barrels were extremely tight, basedon market activity through the sum-mer months until the first part ofAugust, while blocks were plentiful anda lot of trading took place. That hasswitched, he said, as barrels are “morethan adequate” and “looking for ahome,” which put pressure on pricesand widened the spread.

Blocks are not tight by any meansand certainly not as tight as barrels

MIELKE MARKETWEEKLY

By Lee Mielke

See MIELKE, pg. 25A

MIELKE, from pg. 24Awere in June and July, he said,but they’re tighter than the barrelmarket is. It’s also the time of the year becausedemand slows for processed cheese due to lessgrilling and, “instead of holding up the blocks likethey did in the early stages of July, could very wellcause the whole complex to come down and pull theblocks down with it.” He also pointed to the economicuncertainty in the United States, warning that couldfurther lessen demand and put more downward pres-sure on prices.

Cash butter closed the week at $2.0050, down 8.75cents, and 22 cents below a year ago. You’ll recall itpeaked last year at $2.2350, the week of Sept.27. Only three carloads were traded on the week andthe latest NASS price averaged $2.0509, down 1.6cents. NASS nonfat dry milk averaged $1.5698, up 1.6cents, and dry whey averaged 57.94 cents, up 0.9 cent.

Butter is available and in storage, Brooks said, butthere’s not enough of it to be a burden on those whoown it, and there’s no push to sell it even though weare in a slack period for demand. He added thatwe’re not making a whole lot of butter right nowalthough, with the cheese price declines the past fewweeks, milk that was destined to the cheese vat maynow get channeled into butter/powder facilities. Thatcould result in higher inventory levels and pressuremarkets.

There hasn’t been a lot of trading in butter, he said,and not a lot of signals which way the market isgoing, but as we get into September and approachOctober we’ll likely see some promotions for Thanks-giving and Christmas although he doesn’t expect alot with butter above $2. It might have to fall below$2 before retailers will want to do any real promo-tion, he said.

■

Butter production in July totaled 135 millionpounds, according to the USDA’s latest Dairy Prod-ucts report, down 3.9 percent from June, but a whop-ping 21.6 percent above July 2010. Nonfat dry milkoutput, at 133 million pounds, was down 9 percentfrom June but up 1.4 percent from a year ago.

American-type cheese amounted to 352 millionpounds, down 3.5 percent from June, and 4.3 percentbelow a year ago, the first decline in year-over-yearoutput since March 2008, according to the ChicagoMercantile Exchange’s Daily Dairy Report.

Italian-type cheeses were off 4.6 percent from Juneand 0.4 percent below a year ago and total cheeseproduction dropped to 859 million pounds, down 4percent from June, and 2 percent below a year ago,according to USDA data.

■

Turning to the demand side of things, the DDRreports that the cheese and butter sales growth ratesslowed in the second quarter, though they remainedabove historical averages. Total cheese use was up 3.3percent from a year ago and butter disappearance wasup 7.2 percent. Nonfat dry milk and skim milk powderuse was down 2.2 percent, according to the USDA.

Dairy farm profitability appears good for U.S. dairy

farmers and remained above historicalaverages in August, according to the

DDR, but Dairy Profit Weekly editor, DaveNatzke, warned in Friday’s DairyLine that “thingsaren’t quite so bright.” He said that, despite the highmilk prices, dairy farmers actually saw income mar-gins tighten a little in August, squeezed by higherfeed prices and other costs. He said that, when com-paring the milk-feed price ratio for the entire sum-mer, it’s the lowest since spring and summer of 2009,when milk prices were hovering around $11 to$12/cwt., or about half of what they are today.

The USDA’s latest Ag Prices report put the AugustAll-Milk price at an estimated at $22/cwt., up a dimefrom July, up $5.30 from August 2010, and a newhigh. Meanwhile, the cost of feed to get 100 poundsof milk was $11.64, up 23 cents from last month,according to the DDR.

Corn averaged $6.62 per bushel, up 30 cents fromJuly and $2.97 above August 2010. Soybeans averaged$12.90/bu., down 30 cents from July, but $2.80 above ayear ago, and baled alfalfa averaged $191 per ton, upfrom $189 in July and $118 a year ago. That left“income over feed costs” of $10.36/cwt., according tothe DDR, down 13 cents from July, and compares to anaverage of $9.09 over the last 10 years.

■

In politics, the board of directors of the NationalDairy Producers Organization this week announceda nationwide call for dairy producers to immedi-ately decrease their milk production. Board memberBob Krucker, called on dairy producers whose milkgoes into making Class III inventoried products tovoluntarily reduce their milk output by 5 percent.

Livestock producers face uncertainmarkets and narrow margins.

This situation has motivated themto optimize production methods, uti-lizing all resources including manure.In addition, increases in the price ofcommercial fertilizer experienced inthe last five years has heightenedinterest in the use of livestock manurefor supplying crop nutrients and hassignificantly increased its value.

Over the past year more producers

have been considering the contributionof manure’s value to their cash flow inlivestock operation budgets, and seek-ing an appropriate market value inexchange with crop producers. Morecrop producers also are seeking live-stock manure as a major nutrientsource, either by purchasing from a

livestockproducer

or byadding livestock to their operations.

Determining the economic value of thenutrients in livestock manure can betricky. Nutrients in commercial fertilizerare acquired by paying for the nutrientsand a small application charge. Addition-ally, commercial fertilizer supplies theamount and ratio of nutrients you needor ordered. With manure you, in effect,“acquire” nutrients by paying for the costof application, even if you already haveownership of the manure. With manure,you get the amount and ratio of nutrientsthat it contains, which complicates thedetermination of a value.

Even when a rate that supplies the cor-rect amount of nitrogen is applied, theamount of phosphorous and potashapplied may not match what you wouldhave purchased commercially, andamounts applied above crop need proba-bly have no value. In the past, manureapplication costs often exceeded the valueof the nutrients applied. Now, in manysituations, the nutrient value in themanure exceeds the cost of application.

Maximizing the value of manure firstrequires understanding how economicvalue is gained from manure. In mostcases the greatest contribution comesfrom the value of commercial fertilizerthat manure would replace in the cropyear after application. In some situa-tions, another opportunity can comefrom second year credits, particularlywith low fertility fields. Increased cropyield is another possible source of valuecreated from manure application.

Where it is realized, that value hasincreased in the past year with highercrop prices. Finally, net value can be max-imized by avoiding over-application. Over-application beyond what the crop needs,or beyond what commercial fertilizer thecrop producer would have purchased willusually increase application cost per acrewithout gaining additional income.

Management strategies to increasemanure value can be looked at in thesame way as how value is determined.First, for the “Value of Year 1 Fertilizerand Application Costs Replaced” (thereplacement of nutrients that wouldhave been purchased) use the followingmanagement practices:

• Apply for a nitrogen-requiring crop.• Apply to crops and fields that need

P and K.• Incorporate manure to reduce N

volatilization losses.• Use high nutrient concentration

manure which requires fewer gallons

or tons to haul to meet crop needs,reducing application cost.

• Avoid unnecessary dilution in liq-uid manures from factors such asdrinker wastage.

• Consider lower rates (P-basedapplications) with supplemental com-mercial N. This practice can potentiallyincrease efficiency of nutrient use,spread yield benefits of manure overmore acres, and avoid over-applicationof these nutrients. However, be surethat the application equipment usedcan apply the lower rate uniformly.

• Develop a multi-year set of manuretests for each barn to better estimatenutrient levels in manure.

• To gain residual value, apply manureto low P and K soil testing fields. Valueis gained by replacing fertilizer thatwould be purchased for the next year.

• To gain yield response apply tofields that do not have a recent manurehistory. If possible select fields withlower organic matter.

• To limit manure application costs useequipment that has a range of applicationlevels and that can be calibrated so thatapplication accuracy is achieved. Avoidover-application which wastes nutrientsand increases application costs per acre.

Another factor regarding N manage-ment with manure is the time of appli-cation. Many times the logistics of live-stock operations, with their uniquehandling systems, etc., determine whenthe manure must be applied. Fallmanure applications, either injected orbroadcast, allow more time for theorganic portions to break down beforethe plant needs the nutrients as com-pared to spring application.

In contrast, fall applications also pro-vide more time for potential loss of N.Fall applications should be avoided oncoarser-textured soils where N leachingcan be an issue. If fall application isnecessary, it should be done when soiltemperatures are below 50 F.

There is a useful spreadsheet, developedby Bill Lazarus at the University of Min-nesota, that considers first year fertilizerreplacement value, possible residual valueand yield impacts, along with applicationcost, and calculates net manure value.

MIELKE, from pg. 25ABut not all dairy farmers are on board

with supply management. Dairy ProfitWeekly reports on John Pagel, whose Pon-derosa Dairy, located near Kewaunee,Wis., has established a “Risk Manage-ment, Not Supply Management” website,at www.stopsupplymanagement.com.

“While we support many elements ofthe proposed policy changes, the supplymanagement portion gives us great con-

cern for the future of the dairy industry.We urge our fellow farmers and residentsto call their congressional representativesand tell them to vote this down before ithurts all of us,” Pagel said.

The average Min-nesota farm is growingrapidly in terms of totalassets and net worth, according to the2010 FINBIN Report on MinnesotaFarm Finances published by the Uni-versity of Minnesota’s Center forFarm Financial Management.

FINBIN, one of the largest and mostaccessible farm financial databases inthe world, summarizes actual farmdata from thousands of agriculturalproducers to generate detailed reportson whole farm, crop and livestockfinancials.

In constant dollars, total assets perfarm have increased by more than$1.1 million over the past 15 years.However, total debt increased byabout $500,000 over the same period.As a result, the average farm hasgained almost $700,000 of real networth over the past 15 years. Thisequates to 10 percent growth in networth per year.

The FINBIN report included 2,446Minnesota farms, or about 10 percentof the state’s commercial farms withtotal sales of more than $100,000.From $250,000 to $500,000 in totalsales are generally needed to provide

for a family’s livingexpenses.

Net worth increasescan have two sources — those result-ing from earnings, either farm or non-farm, and those resulting from assetappreciation.

Over the past 15 years, 79 percent ofthe net worth growth was earned.Retained earnings result when farmand non-farm income exceed theamount consumed by family expendi-tures and income taxes. The remain-ing 21 percent of net worth growthresulted from asset appreciation.

In high-profit years, the high-debtfarms are able to leverage borrowedcapital to multiply their earningsgrowth. However, they remain in high-risk territory in terms of their liquid-ity and solvency positions.

More details of the 2010 FINBINReport on Minnesota Farm Financesare available at www.finbin.umn.edu.

Net worth of farms growsMARKETING

We’ve all seen the images on televisionfrom disasters overseas: Large whitesacks of meal are unloaded from trucksas hungry families line up and awaitrations.The U.S. flag and the words “Giftof the United States of America” areprominently displayed in bright red andblue ink. These humanitarian efforts arethe result of collaborations involvingmultiple national and international gov-ernment managers, aid agency officialsand policy administrators.

Agricultural Research Service scien-tists have been working with collabora-tors to bring enhanced features to foodrations — corn-soy blends that supple-ment meals, particularly for young chil-dren. A new, fully cooked food-aid prod-uct has been developed as a result of thisteam effort. The work was led by foodtechnologist Charles Onwulata in theDairy Processing and Products ResearchUnit at the ARS Eastern RegionalResearch Center in Wyndmoor, Pa.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’sForeign Agricultural Service administersthe McGovern-Dole International Foodfor Education and Child Nutrition Pro-gram, which provides U.S. agriculturalproducts for school feeding and otherprojects in more than 30 countries. TheU.S. Agency for International Develop-ment — an independent federal agency— works in 100 developing countries todistribute commodity staples to people atrisk of hunger and malnutrition.

The USDA’s Washington, D.C.-basedFarm Service Agency purchases U.S.commodities that help foreign countriesunder the Agricultural Trade Develop-ment Assistance Act of 1954 — or Pub-lic Law 480. This law was renamed the“Food for Peace Act” in 2008.

The FSA implements agriculturalpolicies and oversees the procurementchain for multiple programs. Theseinclude purchasing U.S. commodityproducts using both FAS and USAIDfunds. These commodity foods are thenprovided to FAS programs and USAIDFood for Peace programs, which directthe foods to recipients through a widenetwork of partners that includes theUnited Nations World Food Program.

A nutritionally fortified andprocessed corn-soy blend is provided asa supplement to a ration that providesstaple foods. This ration has been sup-plied as uncooked or partially cookedfortified corn- or wheat-soy blends thatcontain oil, vitamins and minerals. Aswith most food products, such blends gostale over time. Spoilage problems havebeen associated with uncooked corn-soy blends when fat components — oils— in the mix go rancid. Fine particles

in the blends can segregate and fall tothe bottom, and key vitamins and min-erals can settle as well, making themixture less nutritious and effectivefor the already malnourished.

These uncooked and partially cookedformulations were developed by ARS sci-entists nearly 50 years ago. During thepast 15 years, Onwulata has worked onimproving food blends and has now pro-duced an enhanced ration that comes asa fully cooked commodity product. “Thenew product is called ‘instant corn-soyblend,’ or ICSB, and it can be stirredwith sanitized, potable drinking water”to make the ration, Onwulata said.

Periodically, the FSA’s Kansas CityCommodity Office in Missouri issuesinvitations for bids requesting particu-lar commodities for procurement, aswell as the requirements involved. Thenew ICSB could now be one of thosecommodities. The FSA included thenew extruded process that ARS devel-oped into the specifications for anadditional type of corn-soy blend. ICSBcould be purchased for the FAS-admin-istered McGovern-Dole program.A fully cooked blend

In early 1993, ARS national programleaders convened a meeting with ARSscientists to discuss ways that thevitamin and mineral content of food-aid rations could be improved. In 1995,FSA food scientists contacted ARS foodscientists to discuss specific problemswith noncooked or partially cookedcorn-soy rations becoming unstableover time. “Part of the problem waskeeping partially cooked food freshduring long shipment and transporta-tion periods,” Onwulata said. “We also

FOOD AID, from pg. 29Adiscussed ways to remedy problems associated withnutrients settling to the bottom of bags.”

Onwulata then began developing a new food prod-uct using the same type of machines that are used tomake puffed snacks and cereals. “Cheese puffs” and“cereal puffs” for example have been popular in theUnited States for more than 50 years. ICSB looksmuch like these popular puffed snacks when theyexit the machinery — before it is ground — but witha creamy color and harder texture in its dry form.

The technology developed is referred to as an“instantized” process, which cooks foodstuff com-pletely in a short time, under high heat and highpressure. The machine used to produce the foodproduct is called a “twin-screw extruder.” Cookingextruders are specialized food-manufacturingmachines consisting of tightly fitting screws thatrotate within a stationary barrel.

The uncooked corn-soy meal, the vitamin premixand the mineral premix enter the barrel at one endand are heated and mixed by a variety of mixing andmashing screws. The cooked product then exits theextruder through an opening at the other end of themachine—and in less than two minutes has taken anew, fully cooked, expanded and textured form. Thetextured corn-soy blend is then crushed and milledto size to form the ICSB.

Onwulata conducted several experiments showingthat twin-screw extrusion could be used to create aninstant product that, when rehydrated with safe drink-ing water, turns into a porridge that meets all requirednutritional specifications, color and consistency.Value-added emergency food

The extrusion-based product that Onwulata andhis team developed is based on the same formulationas traditional corn-soy blend, with the advantagesbeing that the nutrients and oils are fully integratedinto it. “This addresses the initial concerns of off-fla-vors, off-colors and uneven nutrient distribution incorn-soy blend,” Onwulata said.

On the road to ICSB success, Onwulata publisheda study in which he evaluated the composition, vita-mins and minerals, and other properties of corn-soyblends made by six processors. His findings showednonuniform distribution of the added vitamins andminerals. The paper, “Variation in Corn Soy Blendsfor Overseas Distribution,” which was coauthoredwith six other ERRC scientists, was published inCereal Foods World in 1999. The findings also drovehome the need to change to an instant, ready-to-eatblend. For the next six years, Onwulata worked onfinalizing the new fully cooked, ready-to-eat product.

In 2005, Talari V. Rao Jude — who at the time wasa lead food scientist with the FSA’s Commodity Pol-icy Procurement Analysis Division — spotted thecorn-soy blend evaluation paper and contactedOnwulata to review and discuss ICSB. “The meritswere so overwhelming that we initiated a joint col-laboration in 2008 between FSA and ARS to producefresh ICSB product,” Jude said.

Then in 2009, Jude contacted Food for Peace to dis-cuss the merits of ICSB as an improved product for

FOOD AID, from pg. 30Ahumanitarian feeding programs. Thisled to a key meeting in a series of in-person demonstrations of the newproduct. ARS attendees includedERRC’s Onwulata, technology transfercoordinator Robert Griesbach and sen-ior national program leader for utiliza-tion L. Frank Flora. Representatives ofFAS, FSA and USAID also attended,along with representatives from theprivate and manufacturing sectors.

The group met in Washington, D.C.,in June and November 2009. Onwu-lata and colleagues provided attendeesa sample of the instant porridge madefrom ICSB mixed with water. “Othernutritious products made from ICSBwere also served,” Jude said, “and allwere liked by attendees.” Onwulataalso provided nutritional fact sheetsand a primer on industry’s capabilityto produce the product.

Jude had been working since 2000 onfood-quality issues associated withfood-aid products. He analyzedspoilage data on a bagged, partiallycooked corn-soy blend that had beentransported to foreign countries asfood aid. He then recognized that par-ticle size variation caused poor distri-bution of minerals and that the newICSB could solve the problem.

“When food aid is sent overseas as agift from the American people, it mustbe able to withstand a long journey dur-ing which storms and other challengesmay occur,” said Jude, who is now anFSA domestic programs manager.“After the aid arrives, local transporta-tion or storage begins, during whichtemperatures may swing drastically.Food rations must be of the highest edi-ble quality when they reach those inneed, and when they are damaged or gobad, the donor country’s reputation andimage can be damaged as well.”

A new, stable, fully cooked productwould require a new manufacturingnetwork. This meant that furtherdemonstrations to educate potentialmanufacturers on mass-producing fullycooked, extruded rations were needed.“The demonstration to administratorsin June 2009 opened the way for furtherdemonstrations to potential manufac-turers on how the new extruder equip-ment and processes are used to producethe new product,” Jude said.New policies

By 2009, development of a new for-mula and specifications for instantcorn-soy blend had gained recognitionamong key food-aid sponsors. “Thiswas accomplished in part through the

continuing series of demonstrationsthat focused on policy officials, manu-facturing managers, scientists and aid-agency officials,” Onwulata said.

“Nearly five years ago, Onwulatadescribed a new fully cooked, extrudedfood-aid product he was developing thatwould overcome some of the problemswe’d been experiencing with traditionalcorn-soy blends,” said Cleveland Marsh,FSA’s assistant to the deputy adminis-trator for commodity operations andalso acting export program manager.“In late 2010, we amended our Com-modity Requirements Document, orCRD, to include specifications for pro-ducing ICSB as an option, in addition toproducing traditional milled grain asan option.” Once a request for food aidthat cites the new CRD is received, theFSA is in a position to procure the mostcompetitively priced products.

The ICSB was specified by the FSAas a supplemental food for emergencyrations, displaced-persons assistanceand as a weaning food in maternal andchild health programs and other pro-grams. It is to be composed of pre-gelatinized cornmeal; toasted soyflour; refined, deodorized and bleachedsoybean oil; premixed minerals; andpremixed vitamins and antioxidants.

The finished-product requirementsstipulate that each 100-gram servingmust have a uniform distribution ofvitamins and minerals. The ICSBmust also be manufactured so as toproduce a fully cooked end productwith a neutral to slightly nutty flavorand must have a light yellow to goldenbuff color. Particle size and nutritionallabeling are also stipulated.

For more than 15 years now, the FSAhas been consulting with ARS’s Onwu-lata on resolving problems associatedwith uncooked corn-soy blend. Onwulatahas provided direction for FSA policy onFood for Peace programs and, workingwith ARS national program leaders, hasconsulted regularly with USAID andFAS on Title II emergency feeding pro-grams.

Food for Peace provides $2 billionworth of commodity-based meals eachyear in times of emergency. To ensurethat USAID can provide the best prod-ucts for the Food for Peace programs,Food for Peace initiated a two-yearreview of the nutritional quality of foodaid through a contract with Tufts Uni-versity Friedman School of Nutritionand Policy in Boston, Mass. A productsimilar to ICSB, but with a differentformulation and micronutrient profile,may fulfill some of the recommenda-tions of that review.

In addition to reviewing existingproducts, Food for Peace has beenworking with other university expertsand the USDA to develop the next gen-eration of food-aid commodities, suchas ready-to-use meal replacements foremergencies and foods for supplemen-tary and therapeutic feeding programs.

It is expected that new products fromboth the Tufts review and the develop-ment of specifications for a variety ofready-to-use foods will be rolled out

over the next two years.•••

For some, the Minnesota State Fair is all aboutthe people and the food.

Sure, there is a lot of both at the Great Min-nesota Get-Together, but there is also a lot to belearned during the Fair’s 12-day run.

Some see a great educational opportunity on thesouth end of the Fairgrounds, on what could becalled “livestock row.”

“People are getting further away from the farmand they need to be educated about agriculture,”said Paul DeBriyn, AgStar Financial Services pres-

ident and CEO. “The State Fair already offers greatlearning opportunities in the Miracle of Birth Cen-ter, the Moo Booth, and all the other such boothsthat help educate the public. This arena will justhelp further that education.”

“This arena” DeBriyn speaks of is the AgStarArena that will be built on the site of the currentJudging Arena that was built in the 1960s. TheJudging Arena will be demolished this fall with con-struction of the AgStar Arena beginning soon there-after to be ready for the 2012 State Fair.

“I will be retired by next year at this time, but youhad better believe that I will be back,” MinnesotaState Fair President Denny Baker said during the“straw-throwing ceremony on Aug. 27 during theState Fair.

Thom Petersen, Minnesota Farmers Union direc-tor of government relations, attended the “straw-throwing” ceremony with his sons, and fondlyremembered the days of his showing livestock andhorses in the old Judging Arena. “It’s sad to see theold building go, but it’s time for new traditions.”

As the United States was celebrating itsbicentennial in 1976, two mainstays of agmedia — the Linder Farm Network andThe Land — were born.

Thirty-five years later, in the Forum Tentat the 2011 Farmfest, discussions ofpolitics and policy were put on hold forjust a few minutes to acknowledge twothings everyone could agree upon ...

... Linder and The Land are great UpperMidwest farming traditions, and you neverturn down free cake.

“I coulda’ been a contender.”—TerryMalloy, On the Waterfront, 1954

Walleyes, sauger — they were thetarget fish the other evening as KeithWenner, Mark Bollum and I easedaway from the landing at Seven MileCreek Park on the Minnesota River.

It’s no secret that the familiar cat-fish, walleye, sauger, pike, carp, etc.,abound in the meandering Min-nesota.

But since so many other species callits chocolate-colored depths home, onenever really knows what may becaught.

While a little fishing ostensibly wasthe reason we were on the river, theopportunity to soak up the riverambiance and perhaps a few beers ona perfect August evening was equallyappealing.

Finally, after a long summer of fast

currents and high-waterconditions, the MinnesotaRiver finally has melloweda bit, making it more fish-able.

Here and there, sandbarsare beginning to emerge,the current slackening andswirling into fish-holdingeddies.

At a place Wenner opti-mistically referred to as“Sauger Point,” a referenceto a time in his distant past when heclaims he actually caught a saugerthere, we drifted nightcrawlers alongthe seam formed where swift currentripping past a deadfall met with theslack water behind it.

There were plenty of bites. But whilethe 6-inch channel cats hungry enoughto get hooked were a pleasant indica-tion of natural reproduction of the cat-fish population in the Minnesota, theyweren’t exactly what we were hopingfor.

Nor was the carp —a 6- or 7-pounder— thatdecided toinhale anightcrawler.But it was apleasant diver-sion when at thesting of the hook, it raninto the current, peel-ing off all but the lastfew yards of the spin-ning reel before wefinally caught up withit with the boat.

Back at Sauger Point,as my bait driftedalong, there was a tap. Iset the hook and after abrief tussle, I had a silvery fishthrashing boatside.

I reached over and grabbed it aroundthe gills and hoisted it aboard.

Nicely proportioned, the handsomefish resembled a tulibee. But what wasso striking was that it had enormouseyes just behind its abbreviated snout.

“What is it,” one of my fishing part-ners asked.

“A mooneye,” I replied. The only rea-son I was at all familiar with it wasbecause of a story I wrote many yearsago about a local young man who hadcaught a new state record mooneyefrom the Minnesota River.

Even though we all had cell phones

with built-in cameras in ourpockets, none of us thoughtof taking a photographbefore slipping the unusualcatch back into the waterwhere it vanished back intothe depths.

And then I got to thinking... state record.

I recalled that the speci-men that the local youngman had caught so manyyears ago wasn’t all that

big.Indeed, his catch may have qualified

as a state record because the fish arerarely caught and anglers who docatch them probably aren’t awarethere’s even a record category for suchan obscure species.

“Guys, I may have just released astate record,” I said, relating the storyabout the earlier mooneye record.

Back at the office the next morning, Iwent to the Department of Natural

Resourceswebsitewhere staterecord fish

are listed.The currentstate recordmooneyewas listedat 1 pound,

15-ounces.That fish, caught in

the Minnesota Riversomeplace in RedwoodCounty way back inJune of 1980, measured16.5 inches long andhad a 9.75-inch girth.

Having a pretty goodsense of what a 16-inch

walleye looks like, the mooneye Ireleased likely would have stretchedall of that and maybe a couple ofinches more.

It’s possible I might have blown arare opportunity at a bit of piscatorialrecognition.

So there’s still a potential staterecord mooneye lurking in the Min-nesota River.

But first, you’ll have to find SaugerPoint.

Guys, I mayhave justreleased a staterecord.

— John Cross

Last week, something happened thathasn’t happened in you-don’t-know-how-long ago.

You got a letter.Hand-written on paper. Brought to

your house in an envelope with a stamp.And it wasn’t asking for money, givingyou doctor’s results, or telling you thatgarbage pick-up day got changed. It wasfrom someone who was “thinking of you.”

These days, a letter in the mail issomething so rare that it makes youreally notice. But in your mother’s day,sending letters was common and easierthan making a phone call. In the newbook “The Mindset List of AmericanHistory” by Tom McBride and Ron Nief,you’ll read about those and other gen-erational markers.

Sometimes, when you look at thestate of the world today, you almostwish for a vacation back in time. But becareful what you ask for. As an 18-year-old in 1898, Great-Great-Grandma hadalready seen many of her peers leaveschool before puberty. The lucky fewwho attended college became doctors,perhaps, in order to cure deadly dis-eases not yet identified, but overall,higher education was unlikely. Instead,people went to work. Unmarried

women might find office employment,and the new QWERTY typewriter.They could type, but they couldn’t vote.

Fast forward.Great-Grandpa, born in 1900, might

have skipped high school to work 12-hour days, seven days a week in a fac-tory. After four days, he’d have enoughto buy a few groceries but times wereimproving: politicians had long beenlobbying for national health care andautomobiles were becoming a means ofreal transportation rather than just ahobby.

Fast forward.By the time Dad was born in 1939, he

could count on zippers to keep his coat

on and radiodrama to make hisheart pound.Upon graduationfrom high school,he’d seen scrapdrives, victorygardens and theinvention ofballpoint pens,and though hisparents com-plained abouttax withhold-ing from their pay-checks, they got a deal on his col-lege tuition: it cost them a whopping$2,000 for four years’ matriculation.

Fast forward.This year’s college freshmen have

probably never dialed a telephone.Computers have always been portable,TVs have always been flat and “friend”is both verb and noun. For them,there’s always been Disneyland, MTVand HIV.

Fast forward — again? Nobody

knows, but the authors take a guess ...OK, so maybe you don’t want that

time machine after all. “The MindsetLists of American History” is probablymore affordable anyhow. It’s surelymore fun.

McBride and Nief haveconsolidated justabout everythingyou’d find fascinatingabout pop-culture inthe past 113 years,they’ve done it withlists and short narra-tives, and they’ve doneit in one lively book.This is a jaw-dropping,yet lighthearted readthat puts plenty of thingsinto perspective, and Icouldn’t put it down.If you’re a trivia fan, a

historian, Boomer, or loverof unique knowledge, Ithink you’ll enjoy it, too. Infact, you’ll want to give“The Mindset Lists of Amer-ican History” one thing: theletter “A.”

Look for the reviewed book at a book-store or a library near you. You mayalso find the book at online book retail-ers.

Creating a sustainable landscape oran outdoor living space that includes awater feature is made easier withexpert advice, and that is what AnnMarie VanDerZanden, Iowa State pro-fessor of horticulture and Extensionlandscape horticulture specialist, offersin her two most recent publications“Sustainable Home Landscapes,”co-authored with former horticulturestudent Josh Schultes; and “Ornamen-tal Water Features for the Mid-west,” co-authored by VanDerZanden,Cynthia Haynes, ISU horticulture, andRichard Clayton, ISU aquaculture.

People who desire a low-maintenancelandscape that uses limited outsideresources, is environmentally friendlyand economically feasible and is aes-thetically pleasing are looking for asustainable landscape. The benefits ofa sustainable landscape are that ituses fewer inputs (water, chemicals —fertilizer and pesticides, and labor) andcreates minimal outputs (green waste),but is still aesthetically pleasing.

In “Sustainable Home Landscapes,”she tells how to design two categoriesof sustainable landscapes — those thatare new construction and ones that

involve retrofitting an existing design.The full-color photographs comple-

ment the information about plant andturf selection, hardgoods and irriga-tion, as well as inspire the reader. Thepublication is available through theISU Extension Online Store,www.extension.iastate.edu/store, for$6.50, plus shipping and handling.

“Ornamental Water Features for theMidwest” was designed to discuss thenuances of Midwest water features whichwouldn’t necessarily be covered in a gen-eral “how to build a water feature” publi-cation. “Water features in the Midwestare a little tricky relative to warmer partsof the country,” VanDerZanden said.

This 24-page publication is dividedinto five chapters — Ecosystems, Typesof water features, Design and construc-tion considerations, Selecting watergarden plants and Rain gardens — andfeatures more than 50 photographsand illustrations to dramatically bringthe information to life.

The publication is available throughthe ISU Extension Online Store,www.extension.iastate.edu/ store, for$7, plus shipping and handling.

I was raised believing the 10 Com-mandments and learning to obey them.They have given me peace and joy asI’ve learned to live them. They are pre-cious, valuable gems of truth. They haveconvicted me and sent me on a truepath for my life.

As we celebrate our country this sum-mer during farm and town festivals, Iam filled with joy that people have beenso kind to Stan and me. We travel witha horseless carriage patterned after a1903 Curved Dash Oldsmobile. I like toshare with the folks we meet, throughscriptures and use the gift of writing to focus on mylove for justice as conveyed in God’s Word.

God says to train up a child in the way that heshould go, and he will continue on that path. Whatis the path? How can we know if we are training upchildren in the proper way, a way that is pleasing toGod? Jesus said that it is very simple to live in amanner that is pleasing to God. There are just twosimple commands to remember: Love God, and Loveyour neighbor. The next question you might ask is,how do I love God and my neighbor?

God’s 10 commandments are very helpful in thisgoal. The first three deal with our relationship toGod, the next seven deal with our relationship toour neighbor, our fellow humans. 1) You shall haveno other god’s before me. 2) You shall not take thename of the Lord your God in vain. 3) Rememberthe Sabbath Day to keep it holy. 4) Honor yourfather and your mother. 5) You shall not murder. 6)You shall not commit adultery. 7) You shall notsteal. 8) You shall not bear false witness againstyour neighbor. 9) You shall not covet your neighbor’sproperty. 10) You shall not covet your neighbor’swife or servants.

We find that if we truly love God and ourneighbor, we will be keeping these 10 com-mandments. It sounds simple, but we knowthat it is much more difficult than itappears. Selfishness, hate, ambition, greed,lust — the list goes on — get in the way ofour good intentions. Only with God’s helpcan we truly love Him or others. We needHim to provide us with the love that weneed to overcome evil. Jesus Christ offersus salvation along with the power we needto lead God-pleasing lives.

Our country was founded on Christianprinciples, and that is the reason we have

enjoyed such blessing. We were a nation founded bypeople who loved God, and wanted to “do it His way.”

The result of this devotion to God has been very evi-dent over the years. However, it seems that we as anation have departed dramatically from these ideals.

Our prayer is that it is not too late for our nation.We like to claim the promise in 2 Chronicles 7:14: Ifmy people, which are called by my name, shall hum-ble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turnfrom their wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven,and will forgive their sins, and will heal their land.

By TIM KINGThe Land Correspondent

The Wadena DeerCreek Wolverines volley-ball team was the winnerof the 2010-11 Class AA State tournament.

They finished their season with a perfect 33-0record. There is a photo of the team in the back ofthe book “Twisted Together by an EF4.” In thephoto the winning team stands in front of thehigh school. The windows of the school are bro-ken, the facade has holes in it, and you can seedaylight through the roof. The school was madeunusable by the EF4 tornado that devastatedWadena on June 17, 2010. The photograph ofthe winning team in front of the destroyedschool is a powerful statement. The girls wereunable to attend their school during the 2010-11 school year. But they patched together ateam, practiced where they could, playedhard and came out of the season as winners.

The community of Wadena, like their volleyballteam, is on a mission. Like the team, the communityintends to be a winner. The 39-page book is part oftheir winning strategy. The book was a project of theWadena and Minnesota historical societies. It is ahistorical document and it takes the reader throughthe storm warnings, the storm, the shock and earlyclean-up, and the planning for long-term recovery.The stories are compelling. The photos are breath-taking.

This is the beginning of Rodney Tucker’s story.“I was home by myself sitting at my desk doing

paperwork. It started to hail and right behind mewas a window that broke from the hail hitting it. Igrabbed my daughter’s dog and went into the base-ment; it wasn’t 30 seconds after we got down thereand it was just a terrible sound of glass flying every-where. The sound of glass and the community centermetal roof falling on my house was just deafening.”

Tucker recounts how his life was barely spared.Next to his story is a photo of a monstrous Komatsu

loader dumping a portion of the commu-nity center roof into a heap of tornadoshredded metal. Other stories are told bya girl who was sucked out of her car andanother girl whose house had the entire

side ripped off — all two sides. The girl,Moriah Wood, is shown in a

photograph with her sisterlooking out of the secondstory of the house wherethere once was a wall.All of the stories are short,

fast-paced page turners thatleave the gawker in all of uswanting more. But the take-away message of this smallbut marvelous book is not theawesome, horrible destructionof the tornado. The story isreally about other powerfulforces of nature that were pres-ent in Wadena on June 17, 2010,and continue to be so today. Thehuman spirit, combined with

good planning, good friends and neighbors, and someresources is equal to an EF4 tornado. With all ofthose things the community is putting the stormbehind them and moving forward, just as their win-ning volleyball team put their ruined school buildingbehind them. The community of Wadena becametwisted together, and stronger, as a result of the tor-nado.

“Twisted Together” costs $20 and is available at theWadena County Historical Society at 603 JeffersonStreet North, Wadena MN 56482, (218) 631-9079; theWadena Otter Tail Long Term Recovery Office at 119Jefferson St. South, Wadena; the Open Book at 114Jefferson St. South in Wadena; or it can be orderedonline at www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/203166.

Proceeds from the sale of the book are going to theWadena County Historical Society and the long-termDisaster Relief Committee.
