‘Paint For A Cause’

Bicentennial Art Project Coming To Local Festival Local and area residents will have the opportunity to be part of Missouri history when the “Paint for a Cause” art project comes to Trenton as part of the Missouri Day Festival in October.

“Paint for a Cause” is a 15-panel mural that will be on display in the Truman Building at Jefferson City when Missouri celebrates its 200th birthday in 2021 before becoming a permanent fixture in the building to be enjoyed by generations to come.

Communities from throughout the state will be providing “artists” to complete the mural over the next two years, including a stop in Trenton.

The idea was conceived by Cape Girardeau artists Aaron Horrell and Barb Bailey, the project provides the chance for as many Missourians as

possible - of any age or ability the chance to participate in the painting of the 12-foot by 30-foot mural and be a part of the state’s history. The completed mural will contain symbols representing the state of Missouri. Each symbol has been marked similar to a “paint by number” picture, with each artist being able to “paint” their portion of the panel.

Trenton’s panel will be located at The Space at 1013 Main St. in the downtown area during the Missouri Day Festival, Oct. 19-21. Dan Maxey and Kim Cleeton of Black Rooster Creative are helping to bring the project to Trenton. Maxey said persons will be able to come in any time during the festival to paint and/or view the mural.

Each panel measures 4-feet by 6-

“That means we can have 1,729 persons come in and be a part of history by painting on this mural,” Maxey said.

Paint and brushes will be provided and there will be individuals present at the site to assist participants. It is estimated that around 350 persons can be accomodated each day, based on an eight-hour day.

As part of the project, there will be an individual at the site who will record information about each of the “artists,” including their name, age and address. That information will be placed in a journal, to be combined with other journals from similar projects across the state. The combined information will be included with the finished project when it is on display

R-9 Sets Open Houses Open houses are planned on Monday night, Aug. 12 in the Trenton R-9 School District in preparation for the start of classes on Wednesday, Aug. 14.

Rissler Elementary School will hold its open house beginning at 5 p.m. Students, along with their parents, will be able to visit their class-

designed to include painters of all ages and abilities.

“We want everyone to come out and paint,” Maxey said.

Because the mural is about celebrating Missouri and its 200 years of history, Maxey said he felt the Missouri Day Festival and Trenton were the perfect venue for this project.

“What better place is there to celebrate Missouri than at the Missouri Day Festival, which has been celebrating the state’s history for over 30

The Trenton R-9 Board of Education will hold its regular monthly meeting at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 13 at the district office.

Items on the announced agenda include the special education compliance plan, the conflict of interest ordinance, MSBA policy updates, approval of early graduation and part-time attendance requests, the Annual Secretary of the Board Report, approval of the 2019-20 graduation date, a contract with Wright Memorial Hospital for physical/occupational therapy services, a memorandum of understanding with Preferred Family Health Care for counseling services, the amended 2018 fiscal audit, setting the date for special board of education meetings, announcement of back to school activities, the safety report, a summer projects report, the fall MSBA meeting, the special education determination category and principal reports. An executive session for personnel is also planned.

County Levy Set The Grundy County Commission set the 2019 tax levy during a public hearing held on Tuesday morning, Aug 6 at the courthouse.

No one from the public attended the hearing to provide comment on the levy, which was set at $.2009 on the $100 assessed valuation. That amount is the maximum allowed after the sales tax rollback from a tax ceiling of $.3918.

The county’s assessed valuation for 2019 is $132,599,802, which is up slightly from the 2018 figure of $132,390,260 and the levy is expected to generate around $235,000. The 2019 rate is down from the 2018 rate of $.2374. Included in the assessed valuation is $2,086,402 in new construction.

The commission will hold its next meeting on Tuesday, Aug. 13 with the only item listed on the agenda being a 10 a.m. meeting with Ambulance Director Steve Tracy.

PARK BOARD Fee Review Planned

High Dive Safety Reviewed The Trenton Park Board will be looking into ways to make the high dive at the Trenton Family Aquatic Center safer and at the possibility of adjusting rental rates for park facilities following a meeting on Wednesday evening.

Board President Duane Helmandollar asked the pool committee, which consists of Andy Cox, Beth Mack and Sarah Allen, to look at possible ways to make the high diving board safer. He noted there have been a couple of accidents involving the diving board this season.

Helmandollar also asked the facilities committee, which includes Curtis Crawford, Gary Berry and Lynda Lynch, to meet to re-evaluate the rental rates for park facilities, including ballfields, the Rock Barn, shelterhouses, etc.

It has been several years since those prices were evaluated.

Park Superintendent Jason Shuler explained the story behind the need to close the pool on Aug. 6. He said that a power surge that took place following the replacement of a transformer in the Moberly Park area affected the electrical system at the aquatic center, causing the center to be closed to swimming during the day. Shuler thanked Trenton Municipal Utilities and Randy Oneal for help in getting the pool back up and running in time for the Trenton R-9 Bright Futures swimming party that was held that evening. Shuler said the last day for the pool season is this Sunday, Aug. 11.

Shuler also told the board that the Trenton Street Department recently helped repair See Park, Page 16

Chiefs Training Camp

Offensive Continuity Could Have Chiefs Flying High ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — The day that Patrick Mahomes checked into Scanlon Hall on the campus of Missouri Western for the start of training camp, he was greeted by Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy and quarterbacks coach Mike Kafka —

the same trio that guided the young quarterback to a recordsetting debut season as the starter.

It was a welcoming, comforting reunion.

The Chiefs went through a wholesale overhaul of their porous defense over the offseason, hiring a new coordina-

tor, new assistants and bringing in eight new starters — give or take. But continuity is what defines the other side of the ball, and that could help Mahomes match or even surpass the 5,000-plus yards passing and 50 touchdown tosses he had while leading the Chiefs to the brink of a Super

Bowl.

"Obviously I feel different having a season under my belt where I got to play all 16 games in the season and then playoff games," he said. "Just knowing what to do, another year under my belt and knowing what I need to do each and every day in order to have success on the field."

One of the biggest downfalls to success is change.

Teams that win games, advance in the playoffs and win championships tend to lose their best coaches to better jobs at rival organizations.

That was the case when then-Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Pederson was plucked by Philadelphia, then guided the Eagles to a Super Bowl title. And it was the case a couple of years later, when Chicago took his replacement, Matt Nagy, and the Bears proceeded to march into the play-

offs last season.

Bieniemy got some looks for head coaching jobs after last season, too, but ultimately returned to the Chiefs as their offensive coordinator. And with Kafka back to tutor Mahomes, the brain trust that guided the Chiefs to a third consecutive AFC West title is back intact.

That has allowed the Chiefs to build on last season, rather than spending time getting up to speed, and that means plugging even more information into their league MVP's head.

"He's been challenged with the different plays that have been added," Reid said, "and then some of the fundamental things that he's working on.

When I tell you he loves that stuff, he loves being coached.

He wants to be coached hard.

E.B. does a great job with him, Mike does a great job with him, of really challenging him.

He thrives on that kind of stuff."

It isn't just the coaching staff that returns together, either.

Mahomes is still handing off to Damien Williams, who filled in admirably after the midseason loss of Kareem Hunt last season. He is still tossing passes to Tyreek Hill and Demarcus Robinson, enjoying a big-play safety valve in Travis Kelce and the protection of fullback Anthony Sherman.

Up front, four of the Chiefs' five starting offensive linemen return, as do a pair of backups in Cameron Erving — who has plenty of starting experience — and Kahlil McKenzie.

The Chiefs could have eight new starters on defense. They have eight returning on offense.

"When I got here it was such a young line," left tackle Eric Fisher said, "but now we have a whole bunch of veteran dudes, and we had some injuries last year and guys stepped in. There's no drop."

In other words, there are plenty of reasons to expect the Chiefs' offense to be just as dynamic as it was last season.

Begin Stockpiling Tall Fescue Now For Winter Feeding Plan now to stockpile tall fescue for winter feeding.

Stockpiled fescue lowers feed input costs and leads to better profits in cattle operations, says University of Missouri Extension livestock field specialist Patrick Davis.

Begin stockpiling tall fescue by resetting fescue pastures to 3 to 4 inches and adding 40 to 50 pounds of nitrogen in early August, says Davis. More nitrogen increases yield, but it also increases risk of toxicity.

If the fescue is a novel endophyte variety, 80 pounds or more is fine. In addition, take these pastures out of the grazing rotation until winter. This allows fall fescue to amass

more pounds of dry matter per amount of nitrogen applied compared to a later fall nitrogen application.

Strip grazing the stockpile is a good way to use the forage.

It helps maintain the waxy cuticle layer and quality as long as possible throughout the winter feeding season. When strip grazing, use an electric wire to allocate 2% to 3% of cattle body weight on forage dry matter basis for grazing. “Wait to graze fescue until later in the winter feeding season when ergovaline levels are lower,� says Davis. Concentration of ergovaline, which is toxic to cattle, drops later in the winter and makes the fes-

cue safer to feed to cattle.

University of Missouri research shows that mid-January to February concentrations of ergovaline likely fall below the toxic threshold level of 200 ppb for cattle. Wait until then to graze the stockpile. Cattle are less likely to show fescue toxicosis symptoms and will have improved health and performance, Davis says.

FARMERS ASK ABOUT OUR STRESS PAK TO HELP CATTLE TOLERATE FESCUE ENDOPHYTE

A cover crop planted this fall on land flooded without a crop this year does more than control erosion and weeds.

Fall-seeded cover crops can boost corn yields next year. A beneficial soil-borne fungus in healthy soil needs roots to survive in fallow years.

Without the micro-fungus, fallow field syndrome could cut corn yields next season, says Greg Luce, University of Missouri Extension corn specialist.

MU specialists now know mycorrhizal fungus helps corn roots take up nutrients, primarily phosphorus and zinc.

Without the fungus, corn plants after a fallow year show stunting and purple leaves, signs of nutrient deficiencies.

Roots of many plants, even weeds, support fungi, but corn is especially dependent on mycorrhizal fungi. Crops to con-

by Tim Baker Northwest Region Horticulture Specialist PLANTING TREES AND SHRUBS This year has experienced times of excess moisture in much of Missouri. While it’s great to see good rainfall again after last summer’s drought, too much rain certainly leads to its own set of problems.

I have been getting many calls from homeowners who are experiencing the loss of young trees and shrubs. While there are certainly diseases that can cause this, many times the problem is not a pathogen at all, but environment.

When you transplant a tree or shrub, much if not most of the root system is left behind in the nursery. This means that the plant must grow another root system. During this critical time, too much or too little water can spell disaster.

One mistake that many people make when planting trees and shrubs is to make what they consider a perfect bed for the roots to grow in. When they dig the planting hole, they mix in lots of organic matter such as peat moss for the new plant to grow in.

While this might sound like a

good idea, if the soil is a clay type soil, please resist this temptation. What happens in a time of heavy rainfall, is that the peat moss or other organic matter soak up moisture like a sponge.

Because it is surrounded by a heavier clay soil, the water can’t drain off and you end up with a soup bowl, so to speak.

Roots need a mixture of both air and water, and few plants will grow where there is a high amount of water. In this case, the plant is drowning.

If you have a very sandy soil you might get by with this approach, although there still could be problems.

Some plants, however, really like lots of organic matter, and instructions from the nursery may tell you to add a mixture of peat moss and soil. Blueberries are a good example of this. The key here if you use this approach is to plant on a really high raised bed. If the plant remains high above the surrounding soil level, any excess rainfall can drain off and the plant will be much better off.

ahead of soybeans is easier than ahead of corn. But don’t forget other gains from cover crops. • The impact of fallow field syndrome usually isn’t seen two years later.

Luce admits some growers don’t like cover crops ahead of corn. But cereal rye or wheat cover crops need early termination ahead of corn planting.

Spring oats planted the summer or fall ahead provide a winter-kill option. Consider combining crimson clover with the oats.

Cover crops remain in a research phase in Missouri. Researchers and extension specialists cooperate with farmers in MU’s Missouri Strip Trial Program. They’re proving the value of cover crops. Local MU Extension agronomists will have latest local findings.

Corn Silking, Soybeans Blooming Temperatures last week averaged 74.9 degrees, 1.5 degrees below normal.

Precipitation averaged 0.97 inches statewide, 0.25 inches above normal. There was 5.7 days suitable for fieldwork for the week ending Aug. 4. Topsoil moisture supply was rated 14 percent short, 81 percent adequate, and 5 percent surplus. Subsoil moisture supply was rated 7 percent short, 83 percent adequate and 10 percent surplus.

Corn silking progressed to 87 percent. Corn dough progressed to 38 percent, 44 percentage points behind last year. Corn condition was rated at 4 percent very poor, 18 percent poor, 44 percent fair, 30 percent good and 4 percent excellent.

Soybeans blooming progressed to 50 percent this week, while soybeans setting pods progressed to 16 percent, 40 percentage points behind last year.

sider for cover this fall are cereal grains and clovers.

While many crops benefit from the fungi, corn seems hardest hit by fallow field syndrome.

A fallow year has further impact on crops when soils are low in phosphorus. Research by the director of the Missouri Soil Testing Lab shows that fallow field syndrome didn’t have a strong negative impact on fields testing high in phosphorus.

Luce gives tips to overcome yield losses on fields not planted in 2019. • Seed cover crops this fall. • Add fertility after fallow. If soil tests show low levels, try banding of phosphorus and zinc along rows. That’s more effective than broadcasting. • Soybeans aren't hit as hard as corn when planted after a fallow year.

OP/ED

Five Points

by Wendell Lenhart

It’s That Time Of Year I can’t believe that it is going to happen.

School is starting next week. Really? I’m probably like a lot of kids wondering where the summer went. Wow, they say time goes faster the older you get and I’m proof of that.

Things are picking up speed, especially now that I’ve made it 65 years and am headed toward number 66 pretty fast. ##### It was with great fanfare a few weeks ago that our Wendell Lenhart elected officials announced a new budget deal that averts a government shutdown and default on the nation’s debt. It really gets me when our elected representatives from both major parties talk about their fiscally responsible actions. And this has occurred under presidents of both parties, so it really isn’t a partisan issue although it’s made out that way in the media.

It also galls me that when they have done this

to us over the last 50 or 60 years, they say they are doing their work as a public service. That infers that they are doing it for free when in truth they make over $174,000 per year and can receive up to 80 percent yearly in retirement pay, if they qualify. And, on top of that, they have health care services that we can only dream of as far as quality and cost are concerned.

As a country, we continue to spend more money than we take in. After raiding the surplus in the Social Security Trust Fund many years ago, the nation now borrows 25 cents of every dollar that is spent.

We’ll soon hit $1 trillion annual budget deficits.

It gets worse when you add in the cost of servicing the debt we already have. Total public debt is over $16 trillion, twice the average of the past 50 years. By 2029, it will cost Washington over $900 billion annually in interest payments alone.

And that doesn’t even address Social Security.

To fix the system now would require an approximate 20 percent increse in payroll taxes and a corresponding cut in benefits. And the longer Congress waits to address the issue, it will become closer to a 30 percent tax increase and a corresponding cut in benefits.

I’m a baby boomer and I just wonder when our elected officials will address this issue and how they will do it.

Please be ready and have your student to the bus stop 5 minutes early. This will ensure that you don’t miss the bus and the bus will stay on schedule.

For those who live in a pay-stop area, don’t forget to stop by Apple Bus Company at 1046 E. 17th St. to pay the $40.00 per year, per family fee. This fee has not changed in many years. Your student will need to show the bus pass to the bus driver in order to ride from that bus stop. This pay area includes those who live within 1 mile from their child’s school. Those of you that ride a country route and your students are not going to ride for any reason, please give us a courtesy call at 339-7227. Please contact the bus company with any messages for the bus drivers as they are on a schedule and it creates a safety issue talking with drivers during the bus route. Always be aware of the school buses during their routes. Yellow flashing lights mean the bus is about to stop and students are present. Always stop when the red lights are flashing and the stop arm is extended. This means students will be active outside and around the bus. Trenton R-9 children and their safety are important to us. Thanks for your cooperation.

New Apple Bus Policy - Preschool, Kindergarten and 1st Grade students must have a parent or designated adult present at the bus stop in the afternoon. If no adult is present, that student will remain on the bus unless you give us permission to do otherwise.

If you have any questions, contact Steve Liechti at 339-7227.

Dear Annie: I am part of a cooking club that meets the second Tuesday of each month. Each member buys food and we cook a recipe chosen by the host. There are 15 members. Each has to host once every 15 months. We are all females in our 50s or 60s.

There's a handful of members who always attend and a larger group that rarely (like never) attend. The ones that attend would like to get rid of the ones that never attend.

Annie, how do we diplomatically get rid of the nonattendees? We've tried asking in email and face to face if they want to be a part of the group and they always enthusiastically assure us that they do, but still they do not RSVP, or they RSVP with a yes and then don't come.

It's very annoying, and we are just ready to drop them.

For what it's worth, these ladies do host when it's their turn. -- Bakers' Dozen Dear Bakers' Dozen: The key ingredient here is communication: Communicate to these women the concrete ways in which their spotty attendance impacts the rest of the club. For example, maybe it makes it impossible for the month's hostess to anticipate how many stations to set up; or maybe it means those who do show up need to bring more ingredients, and costs go up.

Write out an email explaining these factors. Then say something along the lines of, "For these reasons, we're asking if everyone can commit to coming to 10 meetings per year, and RSVP for each meeting a week in advance," adjusting those specifics to whatever is acceptable to your club.

There's a good chance some of these women had never thought through the inconvenience they'd caused and, now that they're aware, will make

Dear Annie: My husband reads your column every day so I thought you could address this issue. He is retired but doesn't have much interest in any hobbies. We've had many discussions on things he can do, including volunteering.

Nothing seems to motivate him. He has started drinking daily at the neighborhood bar with the other retired guys. It is interfering with any plans we've made. Talking about it only causes more arguments and problems. I'm spending more time with my gal pals, which also adds to the problem. This should be the best time of our lives, not the worst.

Help! -- Worried Wife Dear Worried: You can't control your husband, and the more you try, the more desperate you'll feel. I highly recommend checking out a support group such as Al-Anon (http://al-anon.org), Families Anonymous (https://www. familiesanonymous.org), or SMART Recovery Family & Friends (https://www.smartrecovery.org/family).

I know you might think, "It's not so bad that I need to join a support group," or that you'll wait to attend one of these meetings if your husband's drinking gets worse. But the fact is that there's never been a better time to go than now.

Take a chance. All of the meetings are free. You have nothing to lose and peace of mind to gain.

Dear Annie: I have been an organ donor all of my life. But now that I am 88 years old, I wonder if any of my body parts are still of use. If so, what can be utilized, please? -- 88Year-Old Organ Donor Dear Organ Donor: You can be an organ donor at any age. According to the U.S. government's official website for organ donation informa-

Dear Annie: Frequently, we read letters from your readers who are mystified about the fact that when they send a card or a package carefully wrapped and mailed, the recipient does not even think about the fact that love played a major role in this. We often send cards with money and a note of love to young family members. No reply! Not that we want the receiver to feel obligated; we just want to know that in their busy days they thought of us for at least 15 minutes while they opened what was sent. Hopefully, after reading the note, they would make a quick phone call or send an email. This is not too much to ask of someone who has been shown love, care, time and the encouragement to tackle the world. No, that is not too much to ask. Life is short. Don't waste time thinking, "Gee, I wish I would have called sooner!" -- Concerned Grandparents Dear Concerned Grandparents: I'm printing your letter because I appreciate the sentiment: Material gifts from family members aren't about the monetary value but about the thought. And they should be received in kind: with thoughtfulness.

However, I do have to note that the phone line goes both ways: Don't hesitate to pick up the phone and call your grandkids.

“So when future generations come and see this display, they can type in a name, a city or a date and see if they have some relative who might have been involved in this project,” he said.

Because there is a cost associated with bringing the project to Trenton, several local businesses, organizations

get the locker combination.

According to the Grundy County Sheriff’s Office, Mac Rakes, 61, is charged with the class C felony of delivery of a controlled substance and the class D felony of endangering the welfare of a child. Judith A. Hawkins, 55, is charged with the class D felonies of possession of a controlled substance except 35 grams or less of marijuana/synthetic cannabinoid and endangering the welfare of a child.

Fatal Mishap Near Newtown A Newtown teenager was killed in a two-vehicle accident on Wednesday, Aug. 7 in Putnam County.

According to Missouri State Highway Patrol Trooper K.J. Cool’s report, the accident occurred just before 7 a.m. on 230th Street, two miles northwest of Newtown. A truck driven by Coy J. Miller, 16 of Newtown was eastbound while a sports utility vehicle driven by 21-year-old Brady Huffman of Galt was westbound. The two vehicles met at the crest of a hill and struck nearly head on. Both vehicles overturned and came to rest off the roadway with Miller being ejected

from the vehicle. He was pronounced dead at the scene by Mercer County Coroner Douglas Priest.

A passenger in the Miller vehicle, 15-year-old Cale D. Miller, also of Newtown, and Huffman both sustained minor injuries and were taken by private vehicle to the Sullivan County Memorial Hospital in Milan for treatment. Both vehicles were totaled.

In addition to Trooper Cool, the patrol’s major crash investigative unit was called to assist with the investigation along with the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office and Sullivan County First Responders.

Area Man Hurt In Accident A motorcycle accident early Wednesday morning, Aug. 7 resulted in injuries to an Humphreys man.

Johnny Hines, 56, was taken to Wright Memorial Hospital in Trenton by the Grundy County Emergency Medical Services for treatment of moderate injuries received in the mishap, which occurred at 12:30 a.m. on Highway 6, four miles west of Galt. The Missouri State Highway Patrol said the motorcycle driven by

Hines was eastbound when it swerved to avoid an animal in the road, but ended up striking it. The motorcycle came to rest on its side in the westbound lane of the road. Hines was wearing a safety device. The motorcycle received minor damage.

The accident was investigated by Sgt. Doug Little, assisted by the Grundy County Sheriff’s Department, the Galt Fire Protection District and the Grundy County EMS.

Accident At Intersection One person sustained an injury in an accident investigated Monday afternoon at the intersection of West 15th and Merrill streets.

According to Trenton Police Det. Jerry Smith’s accident report, the mishap occurred when a sport utility vehicle driven by Mitchell R. Parton of Trenton was northbound on Merrill Street and, after stopping at the stop sign at the intersection with West 15th Street, proceeded into the intersection to cross the street.

Parton said he failed to see a van driven by Jacob M. Ish-

mael, also of Trenton, which was eastbound on West 15th Street. Parton’s vehicle struck Ishmael’s van, with the force of the impact pushing the van sideways and causing the driver’s side rear fender to strike a utility pole at the northwest corner of the intersection. Ishmael was treated and released at Wright Memorial Hospital for pain in his left hip area.

Both vehicles sustained moderate damage.

Parton was ticketed for failing to yield at a stop intersection.

TIF Commission Holds Meeting The Tax Increment Financing Commission of the Trenton City Council met on Tuesday night, Aug. 6, reorganizing and discussing a potential project.

The commission, which has not met since 2010, elected Rob Maloney as chairman.

Other officers are Ann Constant, vice chairman; Greg Geib, secretary; and Dale Swanton, treasurer. Other voting members include Stan Lowrey and Monty Bonnett.

Representing various county and city taxing entities on the board, who will have some voting privileges as projects are brought to the group, are Mike Stegman and Doug Franklin, Trenton R-9 School District; Eric Hoffman and Ryan Vandal, Grundy County; and Elizabeth Gibson, Grundy County Health Department.

City Administrator Ron Urton discussed the duties of the commission, which then heard information regarding a potential development project

involving property at the southwest corner of 28th Street and Highway 65, owned

by Orschlen’s. Micah Landes, director of the North Central Missouri Development Alliance, said Orschlen’s is looking at options regarding its Trenton location, including the possibility of new construction using financing options under TIF guidelines. A development plan has yet to be finalized.

When that occurs, the commission will reconvene to review the plan.

The Economic Development Committee of the council also met and heard reports from Mrs. Landes and Trenton Downtown Improvement Association/Missouri Main Street Director Megan Derry. Urton said there was discussion about having a centralized calendar for scheduling activities for downtown events to help avoid conflicts and better help advertise an event. Ms. Derry would be in charge of the coordinating the calendar.
