Ag Management More corn from Nebraska fields, such as Steve Nelson’s southeast of Axtell, will be shipped to Taiwan in the next two years under an agreement signed by Nebraska commodity leaders Aug. 10 during a trade mission. Nelson represented Nebraska Farm Bureau on the trip to Taiwan and Hong Kong. The agreement also includes soybeans and wheat.

by Lori Potter, The Kearney Hub Axtell farmer Steve Nelson pulled rain-dampened husks away from ears of corn on the edge of a field west of his house last week and was pleased with his maturing crop. There are several potential final destinations for the large yellow kernels soon to be harvested from Nelson’s cornstalks and fields across Nebraska. Much of the harvest will go to local livestock feeding operations and

ethanol plants. Billions of bushels sold to elevators will be loaded onto trucks and trains for transport to other U.S. states. However, millions of metric tons of Nebraska corn, soybeans, wheat, beef and pork leave Pacific Northwest and Gulf of Mexico ports each year in containers labeled for delivery to foreign buyers. “We obviously can’t consume all that we produce. We need exports,” said Nebraska Department of Agriculture Director Greg Ibach of

Sumner, who headed a nine-member state trade mission to Taiwan and Hong Kong Aug. 6-14. Even as state budget concerns limited full trade missions in recent years, he said Ag Department International Trade Representative Stan Garbacz has continued to maintain business relationships and travel when needed to work on specific markets and export opportunities.

New Web Portal Focuses on Republican River Basin A new website focused on the Republican River Basin offers education and information about the contested river. Development of the Republican River Basin Water and Drought Portal was led by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln-based National Drought Mitigation Center in collaboration with Nebraska's Lower, Middle and Upper Republican natural resources districts. The portal includes current news, a history of the basin, legal information, links to current water and drought monitoring, forecasting and effects, and sections on management, planning, education and research. The Republican River flows through Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas and is the subject of both negotiated agreements and current litigation. Cody Knutson, a water resources scientist at the For daily agriculture news, updates and local happenings, visit the Heartland Express website at www.myfarmandranch.com

drought mitigation center, said the site was developed in cooperation with related efforts in the basin such as the work of the Republican River Restoration Partners chaired by Ted Tietjen. "Our objective is to get the three states to work together in resolving issues along the Republican River Basin," Tietjen said in a news release. "It's been kind of a challenge." Tietjen's organization helped conduct a meeting in Kansas to get input on the portal and to help make it clear that it isn't just for Nebraskans. The team that developed the portal had listening sessions and made presentations in all three states in the basin beginning in March 2008 to learn what information stakeholders need. Tonya Bernadt, NDMC research and outreach specialist who helped develop the site, said, "It's really a one-stop shop for stakeholders to utilize,

whether they are farmers, water managers or the general public. "We hope we've created a site that will be beneficial to all three states." The website's development was sponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Sectoral Applications Research Program and is likely to become a prototype for other river basin websites on www.drought.gov, the website of the National Integrated Drought Information System. The Upper Republican Natural Resources District is host for the portal online at www.rrbdp.org. The National Drought Mitigation Center is based in UNL's School of Natural Resources.

Weather Commentary Provided By Al Dutcher—UNL, State Climatologist

Al Dutcher Report A widespread rain event during the 8/23-8/25 period produced sufficient moisture across south central and southeastern Nebraska to eliminate much of the abnormally dry conditions depicted on the 8/19 U.S. Drought Monitor update. A small pocket of abnorAllen Dutcher mally dry conditions remains along the I80 corridor between York and Lincoln, as well as the southern half of the southeastern 3 counties of Nebraska. However, an additional rain event during the 8/31-9/2 period will not be reflected on the 9/2 U.S. Drought Monitor release, but will likely return all of the remaining abnormally dry areas to normal on the 9/9 release. Northern portions of Sioux and Dawes counties have been consistently dryer than normal for the past 30 to 45 days and is being

closely monitored for upgrade to abnormally dry in future U.S. Drought Monitor releases. Week One Forecast: 9/4-9/10: Dry conditions are expected for the entire Labor Day weekend, with only a slight chance of showers across northern Nebraska during the evening hours of 9/6. High temperatures on 9/4 will primarily be in the low 80's, warming into the mid to upper 80's on 9/5, with upper 80's to low 90's possible on 9/6. Another cold front will move through the state on 9/7. Moisture appears limited for the northwestern ½ of the state, with better precipitation chances assigned to the southeastern ½ of Nebraska. The front is projected to stall out near the Kansas border and models indicate several pieces of energy will move eastward during the 9/8-9/10 period generating periods of showers and thunderstorms. If models are correct, three day precipitation totals may approach several inches across eastern Nebraska, while much of western Nebraska will likely see less than an inch of moisture. High temperatures during the 9/7-9/10 period are projected to be in the upper 70's to low 80's north, with low to mid 80's south.

Week Two Forecast: 9/11-9/17: High pressure is projected to build into the region on 9/11 as the stationary boundary responsible for moisture during the 9/7-9/10 period shifts east. High pressure is projected to keep moisture out of the region through 9/14. High temperatures are projected to be in the upper 70's to low 80's on 9/11, warming into the low to mid 80's on 9/12, with mid 80's to low 90's expected during the 9/13-9/14 period. A slow moving upper air trough will work its way into the Plains during the 9/15-9/17 period, bring scattered showers and thunderstorms to the state during the 9/159/16 period. Highs will cool back into the 80's. Current model projections indicate that the entire state will see a widespread rain event on 9/17, with heavy rain possible. Highs are currently projected to drop into the low to mid 60's northwest to low 70's southeast.

Agricultural Summary: For the week ending August 29, 2010, rain fell early in the week across the eastern half of the State while western counties remained hot and dry, according to USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service. Silage cutting was underway as crop maturities continued ahead of last year. Wheat seeding began in a few Panhandle areas but was slow to advance due to grasshopper concerns. Proso millet was turning color and being swathed in the west. Weather Summary: For the fifth week in a row, temperatures averaged above normal with highs reaching 100 in the west to lows in the mid 40’s. The heaviest amounts of rain fell in portions of South Central and Southeastern Districts. The southeastern third of the state averaged over one inch of precipitation for the week while the western half of the State was dry. Field Crops Report: Corn condition rated 1 percent very poor, 4 poor, 14 fair, 57 good, and 24 excellent, above a year ago. Irrigated fields were 84 percent good or excellent and dryland fields rated 77. Corn in the dough stage was 95 percent, ahead of 87 last year and 93 average. Corn reaching the dent stage was 70 percent, well ahead of 50 percent last year and 64 average with the first fields of corn considered mature. Continued on page 11

Make Family Time Count Sheryl Fellers, Dawson County Extension Service The key to family growth is for family members to spend time together talking, but in the past few years, research shows that the number of household conversations has decreased by 90 percent. Staying connected may be as simple as just eating one meal a day together. However, the number of family meals have decreased by 33 percent. Instead of sitting down at the dinner table and talking about their days, family members now grab a quick bite to eat as they head off to soccer practice or one of the many activities that now seem to rule people's time. That is why it is important to have positive, substantial conversation to help keep a family connected. Leave conversations about grocery shopping and bad test grades for another time. Instead, ask family members how their days were. Families could even have a jar that members

could put questions or topics in that they want to talk about during the meal; for example, maybe mom wants to know more about her daughter's new job. Pick a topic from the jar to start off the meal and then let the conversation go from there. Sitting down for a full meal everyday at home may not be possible, but having even a few minutes of substantial conversation will help bring a family closer together. Instead of rushing home from school, stop to get ice cream and share five minutes together. While sharing a meal is important, families should try to find other time to spend together. As technology grows and vies for more of people's time, family members often disappear into different rooms after dinner to play video games or surf the Internet. Instead of going separate ways, get family members together in the same room and maybe play that video game together. Technology can bring family members together instead of pulling them apart. The important thing is not what the family is doing but that the family is together, talking and having fun.

Help for Tired Feet Susan Hansen, Extension Educator Colfax County On my first trip to Europe years ago, one of the members of the tour I was on sang about how tired her feet were. Every night she sang about her feet. As a college student, I became annoyed with this nightly serenade. Now that I’m older, I find myself saying how tired my feet feel. I don’t sing about it - yet. Our feet do get tired, particularly if we don’t treat them right. Of utmost importance is wearing shoes that properly fit the feet. Wearing shoes that are too tight or too loose is not fun. Choose shoes that are made of leather, if possible. The leather allows your feet to breathe, reducing odors and infections. I learned that the hard way. One of my college roommates stuck my shoes (non-leather) outside the door because they smelled so bad. No, she wasn’t finicky - they really did smell. Avoid high heels, particularly those heels over 2 inches. Flat shoes with a heel height of one inch or less are the healthiest choices for your feet. Don’t wear the same pair of shoes day after day. Add some variety so your feet don’t get in a rut.

Plus, your shoes will be able to air out, reducing foot odors. Look for soles that are shock absorbing and skid resistant. Shock absorption is particularly important if you walk on a lot of concrete or gravel. Skid resistance is important when walking on icy surfaces as well as graveled areas. Sizes of shoes vary among brands and styles. It is important to try on the shoes to check for proper fit. Don’t rely on the size listed. Feet are largest at the end of the day so shop for shoes in the afternoon or evening. The size of your feet changes as you age so have your feet regularly measured. Measure both feet since most people have one foot larger than the other. Select a shoe that conforms as nearly as possible to the shape of the foot. This generally means a shoe that is roomy, rounded or square over the toes. Stand up during the fitting process and check that there is adequate space (3/8 inch to ½ inch) for the longest toe at the end of each shoe. The heel should fit comfortable in the shoe with a minimum amount of slippage. Purchasing shoes that feel tight and expecting them to stretch is not a good idea. Walk in the shoe around the store to make sure the shoe fits. If the shoe fits, wear it.

Make Brown Bag Lunches Healthy & Delicious Sheryl Fellers, Dawson County Extension Service As school starts back up, many parents will struggle to find healthy foods that their sugar-loving children will agree to take to school for lunch everyday. However, shopping smart and trying new ideas can help parents send children back to school with healthy and delicious lunches. Incorporating fruits and vegetables into lunches does not have to be difficult. Packing whole fruits like an apple or a bunch of grapes is easy and delicious. Individual containers of fruits like pears, peaches and pineapples also make a tasty treat. However, when buying individual containers of fruits, make sure they have no sugar added and are packaged in their own juices or water instead of syrup. These fruits are already sweet, and children do not need the extra sugar and calories. Spice up fruit by also packing dip for them. Lowfat yogurt or pudding go great with strawberries and melons. Try different fruits with different textures so children do not get bored. Intermix crunchy apples with juicy oranges. Making fruit salad is a great way to make fruit fun. Mix together sweet fruits like apples, bananas and pears with acidic fruits like oranges, pineapples and lemons. Kids get to try different fruit combinations, and the acidic juices will help prevent the fruit from turning brown. Vegetables with dip are another healthy addition to a lunch. Low-fat salad dressing or humus make great dips for raw broccoli or red and green

pepper strips. Sliced zucchini and cucumbers, carrots, celery and cauliflower are other raw vegetables that are easy to pack and dip. Whole grains also are important and easy to incorporate into lunches. Use whole-wheat bread instead of white, whole-grain pasta instead of refined and brown rice instead of white. Wholegrain cereal is a fun alternative to potato chips for a snack. If children still want chips, pick ones that are whole grain, baked or possibly both. Carefully read food labels to determine that products are actually whole grain. Just because bread is brown does not means it is whole grain. Check the ingredients list to make sure the first ingredient is brown rice, bulgur, whole-grain corn, whole wheat, graham flour, oatmeal, whole oats, whole rye or wild rice. Also check the Nutrition Facts label for the percent Daily Value (%DV) of fiber because foods with higher values of fiber are more likely to be whole grain. Children should have dairy or some other calcium-rich food in their lunches, also. Chose low-fat or fat-free milk products instead of whole milk. Yogurt is easy and an excellent source of calcium. Finally, children will always want their juice boxes. Buy juices with little added sugar or sweeteners. Especially avoid juices that have sugars or caloric sweeteners listed as their first ingredient. Many juices are only 10 or 20 percent juice and contain a lot of unnecessary sugars. Check juice box labels and try to buy products that are 100 percent juice.

• IT’S THE PITTS by Lee Pitts •

Honored Guests

by Lee Pitts

One of the side effects these days of the rotten economy is that people are staying with friends and relatives more when they go on vacation, and if that’s not incentive enough right there to turn around our economy I don’t know what is. I apologize if the following advice comes late for those of you who have already made the mistake of staying as houseguests with friends or relatives this past summer. If you haven’t yet, but are about to, I only have one word: DON’T DO IT! (Okay, so that’s three words but I thought my message was too important to leave to just a single syllable.) We should have had this discussion before you ruined your summer by staying with inlaws because you were too cheap to buy a motel room or rent an RV. My advice is late because I only recently made the mistake of staying with relatives myself. I admit I’m not accomplished in the household arts but I thought it was a bit much for the mistress of our temporary accommodations to follow me around with a can of deodorizer and a carpet rake to get rid of all the footprints left behind by my Justin Ropers. She’s just lucky I pressure washed my boots before I went or else she’d still be getting stains out of her carpet, if you know what I mean. I was in trouble for the duration of our stay merely because I drank out of the water jug, my car left oil in the street in front of their house, I put my feet up on

their foot stool, I failed to put the sections of the Sunday paper back in alphabetical order after I read them, and, horror of horrors, I put a recyclable bottle in the regular trash! And what’s the deal with all those pillows people pile on their beds and couches these days? I never did figure out the difference between those pillows that could actually be used, and those that were merely for decoration. Anyway, I supposedly ruined one by getting it all out of shape by using it as, get this, A PILLOW! The guest bathroom we were assigned was a land mine for me. How was I supposed to know that I wasn’t supposed to use the little soaps in the shape of conch shells? I’ll admit by the second day they looked more like rifle shells but it’s not anything to start crying over is it? Really? When our host made the ghastly soap discovery I was informed that the liquid soap was in one of a dozen cute little dispensers surrounding the sink, and during the rest of our stay I washed my hands and face with a variety of perfumes, moisturizing lotions and cuticle removers. After I took a shower my wife asked, “You didn’t get the shower wet did you?” “Yes,” I replied, as I had not yet mastered the art of taking a shower without getting the shower wet too. I was told immediately to dry the shower out, removing all water spots, but when I did so with the stack of cute little paper towels by the sink you’d

have thought I turned loose their canary. (More on that in a later column.) Now here’s the delicate part: The bathroom we used was right off the family room where everyone tended to congregate. You can’t imagine, well maybe you can, how hard it is to try not to make any embarrassing noises while the entire household is listening. Turning on the fan or water faucet didn’t help as I needed something more like a loud John Phillips Souza march to mask all my ruminations. The worst thing about staying with urban hosts is that my wife discovered all sorts of niceties. “Did you notice the thread count on the sheets?” she asked. “Big deal,” I replied. “They had two, a top and bottom sheet just like we do.” On the day we left we had to do more housework than gets done in our house in an entire year. For example, we had to change the sheets so the next guests would have clean ones, which we never do after guests stay at our house! And I hope that thought is enough to stop anyone from ever thinking of staying with us, because I think we can all agree, the only thing worse than being houseguests is having them.

Medicaid Costs to Soar Under Federal Health Care Law By Governor Dave Heineman Lincoln Office/State Capitol P.O. Box 94848 Lincoln, NE 68509-4848 Phone: 402-471-2244 Fax: 402-471-6031

care law. Today nearly one in nine Nebraskans are enrolled in Medicaid. The expansion of Medicaid in the federal law is predicted to add 107,000 to 145,000 newly eligible Nebraskans to the program, with costs estimated to range from $526 million to $766 million. The bottom line is that with full participation, approximately one in every five Nebraskans would be enrolled in Medicaid within 10 years. This analysis confirms that the federal health care law is an extraordinarily large and excessive unfunded mandate for states. It confirms that this law has potentially devastating consequences for our state budget. Medicaid is already one of state government’s largest funding commitments. The law requires states to make additional funding commitment, which will be potentially devastating to the state budget. This unfunded mandate could reduce

Since the passage of the federal health care law, I have been concerned about the cost of this law and in particular its impact on the State of Nebraska in future years. We recently asked an expert, independent firm to assess the provisions of the law. The results of their analysis are staggering. The financial analysis reveals the new cost to the State of Nebraska to finance expanded Medicaid programs will be between $526 million and $766 million over the next 10 years. This unfunded and unparalleled expansion of Medicaid is an unfair and unsustainable mandate on Nebraska and other states. Conducted by an independent third party with experience consulting on the Medicaid programs for two dozen states, the analysis looked at 2011 through 2020 and provided an estimate of Nebraska’s obligation for funding new and expanded Medicaid programs under the federal health

funding for the education of our children. We balance our state budget and our residents balance their family and household budgets. This is not the way that Nebraska does business. It is why Nebraska has joined with 20 other states in a lawsuit challenging the federal health care law. The individual mandate contained in the federal health care law requiring that every citizen purchase health insurance is an unfair requirement. The unfunded mandate on state governments to pay for the federal government’s expansion of Medicaid is equally unjust and unfair. I have said many times, this federal health care law is bad news for Nebraska and bad news for America. The results of this analysis are a first look at how bad. It is unacceptable and unfair to Nebraskans.

As we enter into the fall, students across Nebraska are returning to classes, catching up with friends, and meeting new classmates. A new school year is always exciting, and I’ve been honored to meet with students of all ages and share their excitement. After every meeting, I’ve come away impressed with the quality of Nebraska’s youth, and I am committed to helping them make the most of opportunities to expand their horizons. In order to receive feedback from Nebraska high school students, I formed my Youth Advisory Council. This group provides a forum to discuss the concerns of young Nebraskans and how they can help their local communities, while also offering the opportunity for me to hear their thoughts on issues facing the federal government. Membership is open to high school students who are nominated by their teachers, principals, or guidance counselors. For more information about the Youth Advisory Council, interested students and educators should contact their guidance counselor, my Grand Island office at 308-384-3900, or visit my website at http://adriansmith.house.gov. High school students may also consider serving our nation as a Congressional Page in Washington D.C. While continuing their high school education, pages work on Capitol Hill assisting

Members of Congress and congressional staff and experience up close how Congress works. Applicants must be 16 years of age at the time of their appointment and have a "B" average or better. In addition to the application form and transcript, students will need to submit an essay, three letters of recommendation (one from a current teacher), and extracurricular activities. For more information, contact my Washington D.C. office at 202-225-6435. For some high school students, their commitment to our country will lead them to consider attending one of the U.S. Service Academies (Military, Naval, Coast Guard, and Air Force). I am honored to nominate qualified individuals committed to serving our nation. Applicants meet personally with my Academy Advisory Committee and are judged on academic achievement, extracurricular involvement, career motivation, personal traits, letters of recommendation, essays, and personal interviews. Serving in any one of the military service academies is both an honor and a tremendous commitment. For more information about eligibility requirements, students should contact my Scottsbluff office at 308-633-6333 or their guidance counselor.

For college-aged Nebraskans, I am proud to offer the opportunity to experience the legislative process from an insider’s point of view through an internship in my Washington D.C. office or one of my district offices. These internships provide invaluable work experience for students interested in public policy. Interns have the opportunity to meet with me directly, as well as assist my staff in various capacities – from office duties to research to attending meetings with policymakers and constituents. For more information on internships, students can visit my website at http://adriansmith.house.gov under “Constituent Services” or call any one of my offices. These are just a few opportunities for motivated students to advance their education and assist their communities. I also encourage students to check with their guidance counselors, local chambers of commerce, economic development councils, and other organizations and businesses for more ways to get involved. There are tremendous opportunities at all levels for young people willing to work hard A new school year is upon us and I look forward to helping connect Nebraska youth with experiences which will last a lifetime.

A New Start Equals A Stronger America by Senator Ben Nelson Omaha Office 7502 Pacific St.,Suite 205 Omaha, NE 68114 Phone: (402) 391-3411 Fax: (402) 391-4725

While the Senate has been out of session there are still issues facing us that are as hot as the August weather, one of which involves a treaty between two nuclear super powers, the U.S. and Russia. During one of those hot August days I had the opportunity to speak to hundreds of military experts from around the country about the New START Treaty which is aimed at reducing the number of nuclear missiles deployed by both countries. These experts came to Nebraska for a nuclear deterrence symposium sponsored by the U.S. Strategic Command, which is headquartered in Nebraska. The New START As Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Strategic Forces, which has jurisdiction over nuclear weapons, I wanted to let those attending the symposium know that I support the New START. This treaty has been signed by the presidents of both countries and now needs 67 votes in the Senate to be ratified. Failure to ratify it would foster the kind of uncertainty that could trigger a new

nuclear arms race and the runaway defense spending that comes with it. Transparency and information-sharing, which we are without now but will be provided for in the New START treaty, enable our military planners to better prepare for a response to a real threat. Without such agreements and understandings, our military and the military of countries like Russia must prepare for worst-case scenarios. As I pointed out to the symposium, STRATCOM Commander General Kevin Chilton supports the treaty, saying that the United States would be safer and more secure if it is ratified. I agree wholeheartedly with General Chilton; we will be safer with the treaty than without it. Also, Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said: “This treaty strengthens nuclear stability. It will reduce the number of strategic nuclear weapons that both Russia and the United States are permitted to deploy by a third, and maintains an effective verification regime.”

security strategy. This New START treaty has strong support from previous secretaries of state, defense secretaries and STRATCOM commanders going back through many administrations. My hopes are that this will not be a partisan issue. Previous nuclear arms control treaties have been approved by the Senate with strong bipartisan support.

A Stronger America Failure to ratify this treaty would create suspicions and not be helpful to improved and mutually beneficial relations with Russia. America will be stronger if we can continue to look under Russia’s hood, and they under ours. Trust but verify works. Without this treaty, our understanding of Russian nuclear forces would deteriorate. We would have a tendency for U.S forces to overcompensate for what we don’t know. That’s a losing strategy in an era of large budget deficits and needed fiscal constraint. This treaty moves us further away from a nuclear war no one wants because it would destroy Strong Support In the last 40 years, our country has participat- so many lives. Even so, America will continue to ed in numerous arms control and nonproliferation have a powerful deterrent capability. That’s why it efforts. They are a critical element of our national should be approved by the Senate.

Your Windshield IQ What You Don’t Know Could Be Dangerous Most of us would conclude that our windshield was a very useful piece of equipment. It keeps cold and heat; wind and rain; and untold numbers of bugs and other airborne road debris out of our faces. The problem is that consumers have different and more limited expectations from the windshield than the automotive engineer. In other words, we worry about water leaks or ugly “dings” and cracks affecting our car’s value, while the engineer understands how such damage can affect the vehicle’s structural integrity and passenger safety. The fact is that the modern automobile and truck, windshield is part of the vehicle’s safety restraint system (SRS) that also includes air bags and seat belts. If any of these safety components are damaged, or are inoperable for any reason, the effectiveness of the entire SRS could be compromised. The SRS is designed to keep vehicle occupants within the relative safety of the passenger compartment during accidents, head-on collisions and roll-overs. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports over 40,000 Americans are killed and over 5 million injured every year in highway crashes. Over 30 percent of the fatalities occur when vehicle occupants are either ejected from the vehicle, or, injured during rollovers. Windshields are intended to keep occupants inside the vehicle. The windshield also supports the roof thereby preserving the structural integrity of the passenger compartment and keeping it from collapsing and crushing driver and passengers. Seen from this perspective of personal safety, consumers have a vested interest in making sure any damaged windshield they replace is replaced properly and safely.

every vehicle owner should be aware of the five most important safety functions performed by their windshield. • The most obvious windshield function is, of course, visibility. Unlike drivers of old, we do not wear goggles that keep bugs out of our eyes or highway debris from hitting our face. Even so, the modern windshield can become pitted and scratched from minute dirt and sand particles. Pebbles and stones can fracture the glass causing dings that, if left unattended, can affect vision. • The second windshield function is not as obvious. In many cars and trucks, the windshield supports the passenger side airbag during deployment. If a windshield is replaced improperly, the windshield could become detached from the vehicle in an accident. If this happens the passenger side airbag will not deploy properly. • Thirdly, windshields cushion the blow if a vehicle occupant is thrown forward in a crash. Windshields are made of two layers of glass sandwiched around a layer of polyvinyl material. The glass may break but the polyvinyl layer is flexible and cushions the impact. This feature explains why windshields are made of glass not plastic. Plastic is rigid and unforgiving to a person’s head and neck. • The fourth windshield safety attribute is closely related to the third. When the windshield cushions the occupant’s impact, it also keeps the occupants within the relative safety of the passenger compartment. If the windshield becomes separated from the vehicle, the occupants could be ejected through the windshield opening and onto the roadway. Outside the vehicle, the danger of being crushed by the vehicle is greatly enhanced. • Finally, there is the integrity of the passen-

ger compartment. Years ago, most vehicles had steel A-pillars to support the roof. Today, it is the windshield that provides much of the support that prevents the roof ’s collapse during vehicle roll-overs. There are a few common sense tips people can follow to ensure their windshield performs as intended. The ideal scenario calls for saving the original windshield installed by the factory. The conditions inside the factory for installing a windshield are perfect, so the confidence level in the factory seal between windshield and vehicle is highest. If the original windshield is damaged, there are two choices. Either repair the original windshield, or replace it. The advantage of repair is the factory’s safety seal is not broken. The windshield is not removed from the car. That saves both the very expensive windshield and the safety seal. Many people are unsure if their windshield can or cannot be repaired, so it is extremely important to consult a competent auto glass service provider for advice. If you are not sure, it is always a good idea to ask local service providers if their technicians are certified by the National Glass Association. If the damage is beyond repair, then windshield replacement is the only other alternative. If replacement is indicated, ask if the auto glass shop endorses the Auto Glass Replacement Safety Standard (AGRSS) and trains their technicians to that standard.

Corn trade has held the uptrend with a new high close on Wednesday, but we have remained below the early January high just under $4.50. The weekly net change is around a dime higher. The outside markets were negative through this move which has made the rally more impressive. Concern over yields and the global need to import feed grains continues to limit downside moves. The low last week was only around a 20 cent correction and we then turned and rallied 30 cents into Wednesday. This is how a bull market acts folks. Crop progress listed the crop at 73% dented versus the 55% 5year average and only 30% last year. So the maturity has sped up which gives the bias toward a slightly lower yield. Crop ratings were steady at 70% good to excellent which did briefly pressure trade on Tuesday night. We did see some updated private yield numbers this week. The Linn Group released a 160.7 number which was down 1.4 from a month ago and FC Stone gave a 162.9 bushel per acre number which is likely around where we will have the average trade guess heading into the report next week. The weekly export sales came in at a net reduction of 28,500 tons for old crop and 1.69 million tons of new. Harvest pressure should start to limit upside, but the momentum is still certainly higher. Hedgers call with questions.

Wheat trade was sideways to firmer this past week and remains sideways in the big picture. The weekly net changes are just over a dime higher across the three exchanges here at midweek. It appears we printed a high with the spike a month ago, but now are range bound which means the highs are still in reach if we received some bullish weather or news. Uncertainty remains the key word due to world weather problems, but we appear to have stabilized. So, as long as the Southern Hemisphere wheat production goes well the upside should be limited, but buying interest will resurface on any new weather issues. On the Chicago December chart, the market has trade both sides of $7 over the last 2 weeks and we may be developing a range near-term. Nearby resistance is up at $7.19 which is the 20-day, but the high side of the recent range is up around $7.30. First support is down at $7 and then in the $6.77-9 area. The weekly 2010-11 export sales number was at 1.024 million tons which was supportive. The progress report listed the spring wheat harvest at 53% versus the 60% 5-year average but we are still well ahead of last year when only 21% of the harvest had occurred. Hedgers call with questions.

Soybean trade has stayed range bound this week with some upside follow-through followed by a downside correction the past few sessions. The weekly net changes are 21 lower on November beans, October meal is down around $6 and bean oil down around 60 points. Crude oil tried to rally but then slipped into midweek which appears to be the item leading the soy complex around. Some smaller private yield numbers versus the August USDA report should limit downside below $10 near term. The Linn Group released their updated bean production estimate at 43.6 bushels per acre and the FC stone estimate was at 43.5 bushels per acre. Informa is expected to release their number on Friday. The crop progress report had 96% of the crop setting pods and 8% dropping leaves which are both now 1% ahead of the 5-year average, so we have sped up maturity this past month giving us reason to expect slightly lower yields. Crop ratings were unchanged at 64% good to excellent. The weekly export sales were reported at 917 tons of old crop and 613,000 million tons of new crop. Bean oil sales were a combined 12,300 tons. Oil and soybean sales were neutral. Meal sales were 156,000 tons of old crop and 222,400 tons of new which was very high. Hedgers call with questions.

Harvest Safety Reminders Tom Dorn, Extension Educator, Lancaster County Harvest will soon be underway and farmers will be in one of their busiest times of the year. Long hours and dangerous working conditions are accepted as a normal part of a farmer’s life, but no one should become a statistic for the sake of getting done a day or two earlier. Safety Tips for Farmers Farmers are encouraged to be especially mindful of their safety during the rush of harvest. (IANR Photo by Brett Hampton) Stay alert. Take breaks -- get out of the cab and walk around every few hours. Shut down the machine before working on it. If the combine becomes clogged, shut off the motor, not just the header, before attempting to unplug it by hand. Know where your co-workers are. Visibility is poor around large machinery. Many deaths are the result of bystanders being run over or crushed between machines.

Never trust hydraulic systems when working under a machine. Always use a safety prop if you must work under a header or other heavy machinery. Never step over a rotating PTO. The few extra steps you save by not walking around the tractor aren’t worth losing your life. Never stand on grain that is being moved. Every year people “drown” in grain carts and grain bins that are being emptied. Keep grain auger grates and shields in place. Protect your hands and feet. If you must move machinery on a roadway after dark, have working headlights and flashing front and rear warning lights. Always display the reflective, triangular slowmoving vehicle emblem on all tractors, combines, grain carts, and other farm machinery when driven or pulled on public roadways. Safety Tips for Rural Residents Remember to be watchful on county roads during harvest. A car going 50 mph coming up behind

a farm implement moving at 15 mph closes at a rate of over 50 feet per second. Don’t pull out in front of farm vehicles. Heavily loaded trucks and grain trailers can’t stop as quickly as a passenger car. Watch out! Trucks and farm equipment may be entering the roadway from field lanes in places where you wouldn’t normally expect them. Give them room. Eight-row headers are nearly 25 feet wide and 12-row headers are nearly 35 feet wide. These take up nearly all of a roadway. When overtaking a combine, give the farmer time to see you and to find a safe place where he/she can pull over and make room for you to pass. Never attempt to pass a wide farm machine until the driver is aware of your presence. Never try to pass a combine or other implement on the shoulder of the road. If you hit a washout or hidden culvert, you could roll the vehicle. Harvest activity can disturb deer, causing them to be on the move during times of the day they are usually lying down. Be especially alert for deer during harvest.

Wheat Planting Decisions Noel Mues, Extension Educator University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension, Furnas County If you are looking for more information on varieties that are best suited for your farm, you can make a Virtual Wheat Tour “online” from the comfort of your home. NU Extension specialists have developed a web site with detailed descriptions of varieties, their pedigrees, release dates, certified seed producers selling them, and even a photo. The site features hard red winter wheat, hard white wheat, and irrigated wheat. The site is available at: http://wheatbook.unl.edu/ Through the site you can compare varieties for characteristics such as winter hardiness, disease and insect resistance, straw strength, and plant height. When selecting a new variety, consider its strengths and weaknesses and how it will fit with the farming practices and wheat varieties you’re currently using. Choosing varieties that complement each other will improve yield stability and maximize protection from disasters brought on by diseases, insects, or drought. After using the site to locate a few varieties that seem to meet your criteria and that fit well with your operation, view the results of the 2010 wheat variety trials to see how the selected varieties performed in trials near your farm. This data is at: http://cropwatch.unl.edu/web /varietytest/wheat The Furnas County wheat variety plot was located northwest of Arapahoe on land farmed by Scott Haussler. The chem-fallow plot was planted into corn stalks and featured 48 varieties/hybrids. The average yield for the plot was 48.8 bushels per acre. Expedition had the highest yield at 64 bushels per acre. Lower yields in this plot can be attributed to a high amount of lodging and a lot of disease pressure. Also, kernels were severely affected by a wetting and drying cycle drastically impeding protein reading. The Red Willow County plot averaged 68.1 bushels per acre and Armour (Westbred) had the highest yield at 80 bushels per acre. The 2010 Certified Quality Seed Book for Fall Planted Crops, including winter wheat, will soon be available at your Extension Office or online at

NE WEATHER & CROP REPORT Continued from page 2

the previously mentioned website. This booklet, published by the Nebraska Crop Improvement Association, provides farmers and seedsmen with a handy reference of certified seed sources in Nebraska. The booklet also contains a chart listing the 2010 winter wheat variety characteristics. Of all the things to consider - planting date is one of the most important. Problems created by wheat streak mosaic, root and crown rot, and hessian fly can be greatly reduced by observing proper planting dates (around September 25 for our area). Fly-safe dates have not been developed for Western Nebraska, including our area of the state. Fly-safe dates are averages based on several years of observation. A hot, dry September can delay fly emergence. Moist cool weather may cause average emergence dates to be earlier. UNL Extension cited a study performed at the West Central Research and Extension Center which demonstrated a large difference in yield according to planting date. Winter wheat planted Sept. 2 yielded two bushels per acre. Per acre yield increased to 27 bushels with a Sept. 15 planting date and to 42 bu./acre when planted on North Platte’s recommended date of Sept. 25. The study compared similar plots treated in exactly the same way – except for the varied planting dates. Controlling volunteer wheat is vitally important in managing wheat streak mosaic virus. Volunteer wheat is a reservoir for mites involved with carrying the virus, which affect all surrounding wheat fields. Don’t let your volunteer wheat cause losses to someone else.

Soybean conditions rated 1 percent very poor, 4 poor, 19 fair, 55 good, and 21 excellent, near last year. Soybean acreage turning color was 6 percent, behind 11 last year and 12 average with the first fields dropping leaves. Sorghum conditions rated 2 percent poor, 20 fair, 61 good, and 17 excellent, above last year. Sorghum turning color was 39 percent, ahead of last year’s 15 but near 38 average. Winter wheat seeding was underway but slow at 1 percent complete, behind 2 last year and average. The potential for grasshopper damage was limiting seeding advancement in the west. Dry beans conditions rated 1 percent very poor, 3 poor, 20 fair, 66 good, and 10 excellent. Dry beans turning color jumped to 55 percent, ahead of 14 last year and 34 average. Dry beans dropping leaves were 9 percent, ahead of last year’s 1 but equal to average. Proso millet harvest was at 4 percent, ahead of 1 last year and 2 average. Alfalfa rated 1 percent very poor, 3 poor, 16 fair, 63 good, and 17 excellent. The third cutting of alfalfa was nearing completion at 90 percent, ahead of 78 last year and 85 average. The fourth cutting of alfalfa progressed to 11 percent, ahead of 8 last year and 7 average. Livestock, Pasture and Range Report: Pasture and range conditions rated 1 percent very poor, 2 poor, 13 fair, 71 good, and 13 excellent, well above year ago.

The Nebraska State Rodeo Association The NE State Rodeo Association was created in 1955, with State champions crowned in Bareback, Calf Roping, Saddle Bronc, Steer Wrestling and Bull Riding with the money earned by the individual cowboys during the rodeo season. Team Roping was added as a sanctioned event in 1961, and in 1989 they begin naming the Heading & Healing Champions in that event. Women became

a part of the NSRA with Ladies Breakaway Roping in 1985 and the Ladies Barrel Race in 1986; these completed the approved events of the NSRA until this year when they have added Steer Roping as part of the Association. The finals which are traditionally held in September at the end of the season rodeos have been held in several different NE cities. In 1972 the first NSRA Finals were held in Madison NE, with that prize money being added to the total earnings of the competitor's rodeo season to declare the year end champions plus a finals champion. From Madison the finals were moved to North Platte for four years and then over the years the finals were hosted by several different NE cities, Ogallala, Mullen, Grand Island, Sidney and Kimball. In 1992, the finals returned to the city of North Platte and the Wild West Arena and have continued to grow bigger and better each year. Hosting the top cowboys and cowgirls who have earned the most money each summer rodeo

Corn Byproducts Use In Beef Cattle Enterprise greater. A producer could consider, when it can be economical, using DDGS as the supplement because it is a good protein (30% CP) and energy source. Spring-calving heifers in mid-gestation grazing residue fields the first 25 days will likely meet both their protein and energy needs and should gain weight and body condition, especially if some corn is available. After the grain has been consumed, protein and energy supplementation appear to be needed. The remaining corn reside is between 53 to 54% TDN and crude protein during this time period will be about 5.3% CP. For the 1,020 pound heifer in mid-gestation and average body condition, energy and protein in the diet are deficient. These heifers are approximately 0.60 to 0.70 pounds deficient in crude protein and 0.7 lb to 0.9 deficient in energy. Because distillers grains are excellent protein and energy source and because there is a calculated deficiency in both protein and energy, it appears to be a good fit. Lactating, fall-calving cows grazing crop residue need careful attention at least through the breeding season because nutrient needs are high and nutrients supplied from the residue don’t meet their needs. In an experiment comparing calving seasons, August calving cows were supplemented 1 lb/hd/da of a 28% protein supplement while grazing cornstalk residue from October to April (Griffin et al., 2010 Nebraska Beef Report). Rebreeding performance was 90%, but percentage of calves weaned per cow exposed was 85.7% for cows supplemented at this rate. Distillers grains could be used as the supplement source in this management strategy. Corn byproducts can be used as a protein or energy supplement in cow diets. These feeds when fed in high forage diets, do not have a negative effect on how the overall diet is utilized by the beef animal. Over feeding protein is usually not recommended because protein is expensive and any excess protein ingested by the cow is used as energy. Because of the unique energy and protein profiles of corn co-products, it may be economical to overfeed one nutrient to meet the requirement of another nutrient.

Corn byproducts can be used as either a protein or energy supplement for backgrounding or replacement heifer/cow diets. The energy value of distillers grains is greater than that of corn. The protein content is three times that of corn and distillers grain is a good source of by-pass protein (UIP undegraded intake protein). In addition, distillers grains is a good source of phosphorus. When distillers grains are fed in high forage diets, there is no negative relationship between distillers grain and forage. Furthermore, because the starch in corn has been removed to make ethanol, acidosis is not a concern. With these characteristics, corn coproducts appear to be a good fit as a protein or energy supplement in cow diets that are mostly forage. In the research sited below, distillers grains where fed in amounts that sulfur and fat were not problems. In addition, distillers grains were included in the diets at supplemental level to add energy, protein, or both energy and protein to the diets that were mostly forage. A two-year study (Martin et al. 2007 Nebraska Beef Report) evaluated feeding dried distillers grains plus solubles (DDGS) during heifer development on growth and reproductive performance. Supplements for both DDGS fed heifers and control heifers provided similar amounts of CP, energy, lipid, and fatty acids. Protein degradability of the supplements differed such that UIP exceeded requirements of DDGS heifers. Heifer pubertal development and overall pregnancy rate were not affected between control and DDGS fed heifers. However, AI conception rate and AI pregnancy rate were improved by feeding DDGS in the heifer development diet. The replacement heifers in this study were supplemented at 0.58% of their body weight on a dry matter basis. As an example, if the average weight of the heifers was 600 lb, then the group was fed 3.5 lb per head per day on a dry matter basis. If dried distillers grains was fed and were it was 90% dry matter, then heifers were fed 4.0 pounds per head per day “as-fed” (3.5 lb/hd/da divided by .90 = 3.89 lb/hd/da rounded to 4.0). Limestone (40 lb of limestone per ton) was mixed

with the DDGS to add calcium to the diet. Heifers in this experiment did not experience sulfur toxicity. The heifers were projected to gain 1.5 lb/da and their actual gain was 1.35 lb/da. This experiment demonstrates that distillers grains, fed at 0.58% of body weight dry matter basis, does not have a negative impact on reproductive performance in replacement heifer diets. As beef cow producers continue to explore management practices to reduce costs, especially heifer development costs, there appear to be opportunities to develop heifers using crop residues and distillers grains. Distillers grains have a high energy (108% to 112% TDN) and high protein content (30%). In addition, distillers grains fit well as a protein and (or) energy supplement in many grazing situations. Corn residues are a relatively inexpensive feed resource, but are low in protein and energy, especially for growing calves. Beef producers often target a specific ADG when growing calves. DDGS were fed to weanling steer calves grazing nonirrigated corn residue to determine daily gain response and residue intake response to increasing levels of DDGS (from 1.5 to 6.5 lb/day in 1 lb increments; Gustad et al., 2006 Nebraska Beef Report). Daily gain increased from 0.9 (1.5 lb DDGS) to 1.8 (6.5 lb DDGS) lb/day. These results provide information for selecting a DDGS supplementation level to achieve a target gain when calves are grazing corn residue. Although this experiment used steer calves, there is direct application to developing replacement heifers. These data suggest that calves can “program feed” to a specific ADG based on the amount of distillers grains supplemented while grazing corn stalk residue. An experiment was conducted using cornstalk residue and supplementation was used as part of the development program for replacement heifers (Larson et al., 2010 Nebraska Beef Report). While grazing corn residue heifers were supplemented with 1 to 2 lb/hd/da dry matter basis of a 28% crude protein cube. Yearling pregnancy rate varied between 84% and 92% and subsequent pregnancy rate as 2-year-olds of these same females ranged between 77% and 100%. The data suggests when heifers were supplemented at the higher rate, reproductive performance was numerically

Lean hog trade has been flat to lower this past week due to profit taking by market longs and a soft tone to the cash market. The weekly net changes are just slightly lower, but the October contract is nearly $5 below the high printed just over a month ago. Cash trade was higher briefly last week, but the sharp drop in carcass values created a negative market. Follow-through selling interest and new chart selling has been observed. Cash trade will likely stay softer looking into next week due to seasonal weakness ahead of the holiday. Sow slaughter continues to decline sharply and it is now 21% below the 3-year average, which indicates herd expansion. This has us thinking we may have printed some highs. On the chart, the October and December contracts both closed below the 100-day moving average last Friday. One bright spot for the moment is the market has avoided a sharper decline for now. But it appears as though we are waiting for confirmation of lower cash trade next week before we may test the next downside chart area. Chart support is down around $73 on the October contract.

Live cattle trade is flat to lower on the week heading into Thursday. The charts are mixed with pressure on the nearby, but deferred contracts are holding up with some new highs printed this week. Light cash trade developed in the $97/$153 which to us is a positive item that should limited downside near term. The futures are pricing-in further cash strength, but the bulls are receiving a gut check right now. The April 2011 futures did print $103/cwt this week which is a great upside milestone. This also has us thinking hedgers need to make sure you do take protection in this area and do not get caught paying up for feeders. Cash trade is typically slow ahead of

the Labor Day holiday, and show lists are large which may limit upside in the week ahead. Processing margins remain comfortable which has early asking prices at $101/$160. The cutout values finished lower on Friday with choice down 44 at 163.86 and select was down 68 at 157.56. So the cutout values are holding up to support live cash trade in the mid to upper $90 range. On the October chart, live cattle did finish below the 10-day last Friday and is now down at the 20-day at 9725. If we do slip below here the next area of chart support is down at 9475-9560 where we find the 40-day and 50-day moving averages. Hedgers call with questions.

Junk Jaunt© survivors to hold reunion Some “Junkers” have survived all six previous jaunts and are planning to come back for more while others are planning their very first Junk Jaunt©. Fun lovers, bargain hunters, collectors or adventure seekers, seasoned veterans or novices are all invited to take part in the 7th annual Nebraska’s Junk Jaunt©, scheduled for Sept 24-26, 2010. Thirty towns in north-central Nebraska are planning city-wide garage sales during the same three days (Sept. 24-26), plus some sales at farms and ranches between towns. The route between all thirty towns follows two of Nebraska’s most scenic highways (11, 91, 2) and covers over 300 miles of “Shop ‘til you drop” fun. In 2009, shoppers and buyers from 34 states and 70 of Nebraska’s 93 counties were documented, according to Peggy Haskell, the Junk Jaunt’s volunteer coordinator. All indications point toward Junk Jaunt© 2010 being bigger and better than last year.

Event organizers have compiled a 112 page Shopper Guide to aid survivors and newcomers in their search for that “special treasure.” This printed guide has a map of each of the 30 participating towns, a listing of over 400 vendors (sales) and some of the items that can be found at each sale. Until Sept 15th, a mail order copy of this shopper guide can be purchased online using PayPal or your credit card or by sending $7.00 to Junk Jaunt, P.O. Box 21, Burwell, NE 68823. After the Sept 15th deadline, the shopper guide will be available in each participating Junk Jaunt© town, in a few selected sites outside the area or through the website www.junkjaunt.com. One couple described the Junk Jaunt© as “the best vacation we’ve had in years,” while another lady calls it “a three-day shopping marathon.” Junkers will find anything from antique saddles to machinery, semi trucks and farm tractors to Barbie

Shop ’til You Drop Sept. 24-26, 2010 Nebraska’s largest garage sale. Over 300 miles of treasures and bargains along scenic highways 11, 91 and 2, during the last full weekend in September. Order your Junk Jaunt ® Shopper Guide, including maps, to find the key to shopping success. Shopper Guides – $8 ($7 with this ad) 450 vendors listed in 30+ central Nebraska towns Order guides by mail or online before Sept. 15th

TRADE PARTICIPANTS TO TAIWAN, HONG KONG Continued from page 1 “We still export about a third of our production overseas. That hasn’t really changed much over the years,” Ibach said. What has changed is the competitiveness of the world marketplace. Ibach and Nelson, who represented Nebraska Farm Bureau on the recent trade mission, said it’s not enough to produce the highest-quality products in the world and offer them for sale. Sales depend on creating and maintaining relationships with trading partners. “If we don’t provide it (an ag product), someone else will,” Nelson said. “... We need to sell as much as we can wherever we can. Why wouldn’t we want to do that?” An agreement was signed Aug. 10 by Nebraska commodity leaders and representatives of Taiwan feed, oil and flour mill associations for the sale of an estimated $436 million to $516 million worth of Nebraska corn, soybeans and wheat over the next two years. The signers will promote negotiations between Taiwan importers and private commodity suppliers, with targets of 800,000 to 1 million metric tons of corn, valued at $176 million to $220 million; 300,000 to 320,000 metric tons of soybeans, valued at $120 million to $128 million; and 500,000 to 600,000 metric tons of wheat, valued at $140 million to $168 million. Ibach said Nebraska officials knew of the opportunity for grain sales from representatives of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Kansas City, Mo., so it was important for Nebraskans to renew contacts with Taiwan created over a 28year trade relationship. Relationship building often takes time to yield tangible results.

Ibach said there is significant growth in Taiwan’s demand for beef, so the trade mission included meetings about potential beef (and pork) sales and included events hosted for invited guests at restaurants that serve Nebraska beef. “We were really there to build markets,” said Nelson, who is NFB’s first vice president. “... I wouldn’t be surprised to see some deals on meats in the future.” He said face-to-face relationships are keys to progress in the marketplace or when promoting ag policies. “We talk about this a lot in Farm Bureau, even when we do policy work,” Nelson said. “You make the contacts with your representatives and the things you talk about may not have an effect that day, but we believe they will in the future. If you’re not there, someone else is there with their message. “If Nebraskans aren’t there (in foreign markets), people from other states are there. If Americans aren’t there, people from other countries will be.” He said some of the “fanciest” restaurants in Taiwan and Hong Kong don’t just want U.S. beef, they want Nebraska beef. Consumers with the means to shop in high-end grocery stores also recognize the state brand. The Nebraska trade delegates stood near meat counters and watched people buy $50 packages of beef. Nelson said lower-priced cuts also sold well, “but there still was this clear choice of Nebraska and American products.” He was surprised at the openness of China’s markets and the important role Taiwan and Hong Kong play in giving importers access to the mainland. Nelson said Taiwan has access to more than a dozen mainland river ports, including some that

allow ships to travel to up-river points. “The working relationship between Taiwan and mainland China is improving,” he said, which benefits the many U.S. companies that base their China operations in Taiwan. “The same, I believe, is true in Hong Kong.” Stories about how grains and meats are produced remain important to Asian consumers. “Purchasers, even at the distribution level, they want to hear the story of what happens on your farm,” Nelson said, which is why it’s important to have ag producers on trade missions. Ibach said the missions allow Nebraskans to respond to trading partners’ concerns. A big one in recent years is that Nebraska’s ethanol industry will draw down corn supplies. “You alleviate those concerns so they don’t look someplace else for their corn,” Ibach said, by explaining that livestock feed remains as a coproduct after ethanol processing and high corn prices in 2008 had more to do with market speculating than actual supply-and-demand issues. Taiwan buyers can purchase ag products from Brazil, Argentina and other exporting countries, Ibach said, “So we go there to remind them that we do want to be there and we do want their business, how we do things, and just tell our story.” A key sales pitch always is the reliability of Nebraska’s grain supplies because of irrigation. Ibach said a man they visited with in Taiwan remembered that fact from a past trade event and started telling that part of the Nebraska story before he could. “The key is to get them to remember us when they’re ready to order,” Ibach said.
