When students and staff head to classes at the S.M. Rissler Elementary School each day, they are greeted by signs of encouragement, courtesy of Allan and Patti Quilty. Since the beginning of classes in August, Trenton R-9 Superintendent Mike Stegman said the Quiltys have placed signs each day in their yard at 706 E. Fourth St., with a message on both sides to students and staff coming to school as well as when they head home. Today’s message encouraged students and staff to be their best (shown above) as well as reminding them that Monday is a “great day to be happy” (on the back side). Stegman said Rissler personnel and students appreciate the support shown by the Quiltys.

Statewide Office Holders

Term Limit Amendment On Ballot By The Associated Press Missouri voters are deciding whether to limit all statewide office holders to two four-year terms. Currently, the governor and state treasurer are the only elected statewide officials restricted to two consecutive terms. Constitutional Amendment 1 on the general election ballot would require the lieutenant governor, secretary of state, attorney general and state auditor to leave office after eight years. Supporters say expanding term limits to all statewide offices would bring consistency across the offices, and would prevent career politicians. Opponents argue the amendment would solve a problem that doesn't exist, and would deprive statewide offices of experienced administrators, radio station KCUR reported. Republican State Sen. Tony Luetkemeyer of Parkville, who sponsored the amendment, said every statewide elected official would be treated the same if the amendment passes. But fellow Republican Sen. Ed Emery, from Lamar, said the limits reduce the value of the office. “There are some offices that are very well run, and

that the voters would really prefer to keep someone in there with the experience,” said Emery, who could not seek reelection to the Senate because of term limits. “When you term limit them, you’re imposing potentially an inexperienced person into a place where someone is doing an excellent job.” Previous term limit proposals have passed overwhelmingly in Missouri. In 1965, more than 72% of Missourians approved term limits for the governor, and term limits for state legislators passed by an even greater margin in 1992. Robynn Kuhlmann, a political scientist at the University of Central Missouri, said Missourians are generally concerned about how career politicians can be influenced by lobbyists. But she said research has shown that term limits might make the connection between politicians and lobbyists stronger. In the legislature, newer lawmakers “aren’t informed as to the legislative process. They lack institutional experience, and some of them may rely more on the information that lobbyists give,” Kuhlmann said. But Luetkemeyer, who is in his second year in of-

National Weather Service

fice, said a motivated lawmaker can accomplish many things “without having to be there for 20-30 years." The amendment does not affect lawmakers, but is aimed at statewide executives who are generally more experienced and don’t write legislation, which would not provide much benefit to the state, Emery said. “I have a hard time envisioning any specific value other than getting voters to know every eight years they’re going to have to have a new slate of people to vote on,” Emery said. Kuhlmann said it is already rare for statewide executives to serve more than two terms. “It seems to me as if this amendment is on the ballot without any prevailing problem associated with it,” Kuhlmann said. But Luetkemeyer noted that former Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon served as attorney general for 16 years. “So certainly in very recent history we’ve had somebody serve as attorney general for a very lengthy period of time,” he said.

Twelve Pages & 1 Insert MEDICAL MARIJUANA Sales Coming Soon

Lab To Begin Sample Testing MARYLAND HEIGHTS, Mo. (AP) — A St. Louis County lab's approval to start testing samples of marijuana means that commercial marijuana for medical use could be on the shelves this month. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that EKG Labs in Maryland Heights on Sept. 26 became the first of 10 licensed medical marijuana testers to start operations after passing a state inspection. As a result, marijuana being grown by commercial cultivators may undergo state-required testing for safety and potency. Once approved, it can be sold at dispensaries. EKG's director of operations, Natalie Brown, said testing could begin in the upcoming week. “We’re hopeful that there will be product on the shelves and dispensaries by early- to mid-October for the patients,” Brown said. Missouri voters in 2018 approved medical marijuana. As of Tuesday, five commercial growers and six dispensaries had passed inspections from the state health department to start growing and selling pot legally. The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services administers the state's medical marijuana program. Missouri has issued 60 licenses to grow marijuana, 86 to make marijuana-infused products and 192 to open dispensaries, but the vast majority of businesses are still setting up and working through state regulations. Still, just knowing that testing will be available as soon as the marijuana is grown and ready to be packaged and sold is a relief to business owners, said Susan Griffith, president of CAMP Cannabis, which stands for Certified Alternative Medicine Providers. CAMP expects to undergo its last inspection in December and start planting marijuana early next year, Griffith said. The company hopes to sell to dispensaries by spring. “As soon as we’re approved we are prepared to get plants in the ground immediately,” Griffith said. Demand could be high: Up to 70,000 Missourians have state permits to legally use medical marijuana. They may not all need dispensaries. At least 17,517 qualified card-holders were also approved to grow a limited amount of marijuana at home, under strict regulations. EKG will travel to marijuana growers to gather a representative sample for testing.

ROAD WEARY Trenton’ Gets Off The Bus Flat, Can’t Recover Against Polo At the onset of the 2020 high school football season, Trenton head football coach Kevin Hixson was asked what it would take to improve on the past seasons’ win total of two. Hixson talked physicality and execution before taking a pause. “I think we need to be more consistent off the bus,” he said at the time. Hixson was talking about the Putnam County game from last year, a road contest Trenton dominated. But a hole dug early was too great to climb out of and it ultimately cost Trenton a victory. For Trenton, that’s still a work in progress. Trenton suffered a similar fate on Friday, digging a hole early that was too great to overcome. The result was a 27-14 loss in Polo, one that dropped Trenton to 0-4 overall on the season. “I don’t know why we can’t get off the bus and get ready to play right at the beginning and play with that passion and that energy right off the start,” Hixson said. “If I figure that out, we will win a few ballgames.” Trenton allowed a 57-yard touchdown run to Polo’s Cody Blackwell just 48 seconds into the ball game. A 23-yard score by Mason Chapman gave the Panthers a 16-0 edge at the end of the first quarter. When Polo booted a successful 27yard field goal to push the advantage to 19-0, Trenton had left itself no room for errors the rest of the way. But there were errors. Trenton would punch the ball in the end zone just before halftime, but three promising possessions in the second half yielded just one more score. Trenton’s opening drive of the second half secured four first downs and marched

Kayden Spencer turns the corner on a kick return during Trenton’s 27-14 road loss in Polo on Friday night. Spencer returned the kick to the 50-yard line, but a holding call negated the return - one of several miscues Trenton committed in the loss.

the Bulldogs all the way to the Polo 34yard line. But the action stalled there. Trenton would be faced with 4th-and10 and a pass down the sideline bounced off Quincy Griffin’s hands after contact with the Polo defensive back. Trenton wanted a flag. One wasn’t thrown. What followed was a 15-yard penalty on Trenton for unsportsmanlike conduct, a huge run by Polo, another flag on Trenton and, finally, Polo’s third touchdown of the game. Trenton followed up that debacle with another promising drive, but this one ended with a fumble at the Polo 25 for Trenton’s first turnover since week 1 against Brookfield. The Bulldogs would only get one more possession after that and turned

that one into points as Quincy Griffin raced into the end zone from 13 yards out. Griffin added the two and Trenton trailed by two possessions with little time left. Polo grabbed the ensuing kickoff and, with a couple of first downs, ran out the clock. “Tonight, we just laid an egg defensively,” Hixson said. “We didn’t tackle anybody. It’s not like we weren’t prepared, (Polo) didn’t do anything we didn’t expect. We weren’t patient enough and then when we got opportunities, we didn’t take them. I’m disappointed in our effort tonight and I’m disappointed in our committment to go out and make a stand.” Trenton outgained Polo by nearly 50 yards, but couldn’t erase the early hole. The two teams were even in turnovers

after an interception by Canyon VonBurg set up Trenton’s first scoring drive - one capped by a four-yard quarterback sneak by Coleman Griffin. Trenton was stopped short on a two-point run attempt after the initial score. Trenton will now turn its attention to the Maysville Wolverines in week 7. Trenton will travel to the Cemetary Bowl in search of win number one. Maysville is 1-5 overall and 0-4 in the Grand River Conference. The Wolverines’ lone win came in week 1 in a nonconference game with winless St. Joseph Christian. Trenton, meanwhile, is 0-2 in the GRC after having the first two weeks of its league schedule wiped out by COVID-19. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Gott Scores Individual Singles District Title Trenton’s Top Player Dominates District Field Lexi Gott has been playing as Trenton’s top girls tennis player for two seasons now. It is a position she earned through challenge matches, but the senior isn’t just the top player in Trenton’s lineup, she’s the top player in the district. Gott earned that title on Friday, dominating all challengers as she cruised through the singles bracket at the Class 1, District 15 Tournament in Chillicothe. Gott was the top seed in the bracket and ran a perfect 3-0

record en route to the title. She outscored her challengers by a combined 36-2 margin. In the opening match, Gott picked up a 6-0, 6-0 win and her semifinal opponent didn’t represent much more of a threat as Gott dispatched that player in 6-1, 6-0 fashion. That placed Gott in the championship match against Chillicothe’s Delaney May. As was the case all day, Gott rolled, picking up a 6-0, 6-1 win to clinch the individual title. The championship sends Gott to sectionals, where she will play for a bid to the state championships in Springfield. While Gott was the only individual moving on from districts, both of the Bulldogs’ doubles teams came away with medals. Mallory Sole and Alaina Overton combined for a third-place showing, going 2-

finishing fourth. Both Trenton duos picked up first round wins and semifinal losses, pitting the teammates against each other in the third-place match. Sole and Overton took the first set 6-4 and closed out the third-place win with a 6-2 victory in the second. Also in action for Trenton at the event was Lydia Leininger, who was bumped in the first round of the singles bracket. All members of the THS team were at home on Monday, hosting Kirksville in the semifinals of the district team tournament. A win would send the Bulldogs back to Chillicothe today (Tuesday) to take on the host Hornets for the Class 1, District 15 team title. First serves for the championship dual are set for 4 o’clock regardless of what teams match up in the event.

The Trenton volleyball team won the Carrollton Quad on Saturday. Members of the team included, from left, front row, Olivia Roberts, Kenzie Yuille, Jessa Shipley; back row, coach Pam Bowden, Mackenzee Epperson, Lilly Berti, Ava Simpson and Evy McCullough.

Trenton Wins Carrollton Quad Once Again TRENTON 2 CARROLLTON 0 The Trenton High School volleyball team collected a second-straight championship at the Carrollton Quad on Saturday, winning the event once again. The Bulldogs were cruising in pool play, dispatching Brookfield 25-18, 25-20 and Richmond 25-13, 27-25, but hit a hiccup against Carrollton, a district foe, in the final pool match. Trenton dropped that contest 25-19, 25-21. The loss left Trenton with a 2-1 mark in pool play, but that still got them into the championship match against Carrollton, which was the overall pool winner at 3-0. Trenton made the most of its

second-chance at Carrollton, avenging the earlier defeat with a championship-winning 25-20, 25-20 win. “To say the parents, coaches and players are proud is an understatement,� Trenton coach Pam Bowden said. “What an exciting day for Trenton volleyball. The girls got caught somewhat tired in the first match against Carrollton, but they knew they had an opportunity to redeem themselves in the championship match. They found themselves down in the second set, but they perservered to come out victorious.� Ava Simpson was fantastic in the championship match, handing out 15 assists to go with a kill and two aces. Evy McCullough tallied six kills, four aces and two blocks and Olivia Roberts had three kills and two aces. Lilly Berti had three kills and an ace, Mackenzee Epperson had two kills and an ace and Jessa Shipley had two aces and a dig. Trenton improved to 6-7 overall on the season with the

tournament championship. Trenton’s junior varsity also had a good day, collecting the JV quad title, going 4-0 on the day. vs. SOUTH HARRISON Trenton handed visiting South Harrison a 25-11, 25-13, 25-12 loss at home on Thursday. The Bulldogs’ service game was a huge factor in the outcome as Trenton totaled 20 aces in the match. Roberts led the way with eight aces in the win while also grabbing a dig. Simpson had four aces and passed out nine assists to go with a dig of her own. McCullough was the primary beneficiary of Simpson’s passing, collecting eight kills along with an ace. Trenton also got three aces and two kills from Berti, two aces and a kill from Epperson, two aces from Shipley and two assists from Kaylea Boyle. Trenton was on the road in Chillicothe on Monday and will play at Lathrop tonight (Tuesday) at 5 o’clock.

Shorthanded Trenton Falls By Lone Run MILAN 5 TRENTON 4 The high school softball seasons for the Trenton Bulldogs and Milan Wildcats haven’t gone the way either school would have hoped at the onset. But when the two schools lock up on the diamond, it is entertaining to say the least. For the third time in 10 days, the team teams did battle. And once again, the game came down to the wire. The difference this time around, however, was the outcome. For the first time in the three meetings, Trenton was defeated by the Wildcats, though the score was again a close one. After defeating Milan by one- and two-run margins last week, the shoe was on the other foot now as the Bulldogs were on the wrong end of a 5-4 score. “(Milan) played well and won the game,� Trenton coach Joel Hultman said. “We had some players out that are very valuable to our lineup in all

walks and scored two runs. Trenton led 2-0 after the top of the first inning, but Milan used two-run innings of its own in the second and third to take the lead. Trenton tied the game in the fifth with two more runs, but a one spot by the Wildcats in the bottom of the frame gave the hosts an advantage that would hold through the final two innings. Emma Roberts took the loss in the circle, allowing five runs on seven hits and no walks while striking out four. CENTRALIA TOURNAMENT On Saturday, Trenton traveled to the Centralia Tournament where the Bulldogs went 0-2 on the day. Trenton dropped the opener against top-seeded Hallsville 12-2 in five innings. Maci Moore had a two-run home run in the top of the first to account for both of Trenton’s runs. In the consolation semifinals, Trenton was bounced with a 6-0 loss to Putnam County. The Bulldogs collected just four hits in the loss, two of which came from Ella Novak. Trenton fell to 4-14 overall on the season with the losses. The Bulldogs were at home against Marceline on Monday and will travel to Brookfield for action tonight (Tuesday), beginning at 5 o’clock.

Trenton On Wrong End This Time three phases of the game and we lost by one run.� Trenton has not had a positive COVID-19 case on its roster, but the Bulldogs were playing without Chandler Lynch and Morgan King, who are in quarantine due to contact tracing from non-roster individuals. Gracyn Rongey was also out with an injured ankle and Jenna Reeter missed the game due to illness. That didn’t help matters, but the Bulldogs got a bit of a lift from Madi Moore and Jaycie Griffin. Moore moved into the leadoff spot normally held down by Lynch and collected two hits and scored two runs half of the Trenton total. Griffin, batting seventh, had two hits in the game as well. Trenton got a double and two RBIs from Eliana Cowling, but those would be the only five hits Trenton had in the game. “We had some young players step up and make some plays for us,� Hultman said. “It was fun to see them get an opportunity and have some success. It is going to mean a lot down the stretch to have depth and I thought that is what tonight allowed.� Maci Moore wasn’t given much of a chance by Milan, who kept the ball pretty far off the plate during her at bats. She was 0-for-1, but drew three

LOCAL Sullivan County Water Project Gets Funding From U.S. Department Of Agriculture The U.S. Department of Agriculture has announced it is investing $8,017,000 to the North Central Missouri Regional Water Commission for water system improvements in Sullivan County. USDA Rural Development is providing the commission with a $5,017,000 loan and a $3 million grant through the

Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant program. The funding will be used to finance the existing water treatment plant and make improvements to the plant’s equipment. All internal controls, piping, pumps, equipment, and other mechanisms associated with the treatment of raw water will be modernized to utilize the

most up-to-date technology. The commission currently purchases raw water from multiple smaller lakes near the city of Milan to provide clean, potable water to its three wholesale customers. Ultimately, more than 68,000 rural Missourians in Adair, Chariton, Grundy, Linn, Livingston, Macon, Mercer, Putnam,

Schuyler and Sullivan counties will receive water from the commission. Improvements made will positively impact water quality for all customers. According to the USDA, the regional water system will provide a consistent, stable water source supplying potable water to local, rural residents during both normal and drought con-

ditions. Previously, the area’s water sources became dangerously low during times of drought, jeopardizing the availability of clean water necessitating a more sustainable alternative. The commission has plans to build a dam that will in turn create a water supply reservoir at least 2,300 acres in size (the East Locust Creek Water Proj-

ect) and construct a raw water transmission line to connect the reservoir to the water treatment plant. Upon completion, the newly-created reservoir will be the commission’s primary raw water source, ensuring wholesale customers and the rural Missourians they serve have stable access to clean, potable water for generations to come.

CARROLLTON, Mo. (AP) — An armed guard and a fence trimmed with barbed wire are the only signs of what lies within the plain metal building behind the police department. Driving around, you’re more likely to notice the quaint town square or the 36-acre community park than this windowless, beige building set within a quiet industrial park. But this facility, marked with not a single sign outside, is at the forefront of the state’s newest industry. And folks all around Carrollton, home to about 3,600 people, are banking on a big economic boost from an unlikely source. Inside this building, workers carefully tend to a green sea of pot plants under a canopy of blinding lights. The smell is unmistakable. C4, short for Carroll County Cannabis Co., expects its first harvest of medical marijuana this week, putting legal retail pot sales ever closer to patients for the first time in Missouri history. The Kansas City Star reports that founder Ty Klein is a Carrollton native and decided to move back home, bringing the marijuana business with him. Missouri approved cultivation facilities and dispensaries across the state, in metro areas and small communities alike. But Klein believes Carrollton is poised to become a marijuana mecca. His company won three coveted licenses to grow marijuana across two buildings and another license to manufacture marijuana-infused products like gummies and brownies. And a separate cultivation and manufacturing

facility is set to open nearby. “Per capita, Carrollton is going to be the cannabis capital of Missouri,â€? Klein said. “It truly is.â€? Klein, who plans to mainly supply dispensaries in the Kansas City area, met with several communities before landing on Carrollton. The city and county supported the venture by investing in infrastructure and providing tax incentives. “I doubt there’s another weed shop next door to a police station anywhere in the country,â€? he said. “And they’re excited about it. They really steered me down here.â€? Of course, there were lots of questions and concerns early on. “Number one, the word marijuana to a bunch of us old conservative rednecks. ‌ You say, ‘Really, we’re going to grow marijuana in Carrollton?’â€? said Stan Falke, Carroll County’s presiding commissioner. But the more people learned about the industry, the more comfortable they grew, he said. Knowing that C4 grows everything indoors in a secure, nondescript facility has eased concerns. “They’ve done a great job. They’re not hiding, but they’re not stuffing it down the throats of people that might be opposed,â€? Falke said. Not everyone here is enthusiastic about pot. Around town, some people didn’t want to be interviewed about the budding industry, knowing it remains a divisive issue. “There will always be rough edges,â€? Falke said. “We have a conservative base. You’re not going to change their minds.â€? Carrollton is the seat of Carroll County, where President Donald Trump won nearly 80% of the vote in 2016 — statewide, Trump carried 56.4% support. But many people here acknowledge the rare opportunity provided by the state’s burgeoning marijuana business. Rural communities across the Midwest have suffered through decades of population decline and job losses, as people increasingly flocked to cities. Like other small towns, Carrollton has lost major employers and retailers over the years. If C4 grows as anticipated, it could become one of the area’s largest employers. “We just haven’t had a lot of opportunity for growth of this type,â€? Falke said. “We’ve taken some hits, so the opportunity now to overcome those with new industry, we’re just really excited.â€? C4’s arrival is the first time a major employer has moved

to the area in at least a decade, said Anna Barlow, director of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce. Much of the local economy revolves around farming, and the local hospital and schools are the area’s largest employers. “These are really good paying jobs with benefits. That’s more difficult to find in our community,� Barlow said. “The boost to our economy is definitely something we haven’t seen for a long time.� Patients have been waiting for the build-out of the state’s pot industry since voters approved a constitutional amendment in November 2018 sanctioning medical marijuana. Those who qualify for the program can currently grow plants at home, but the industry is expected to boom in the coming months as commercial growers and retail dispensaries begin to market products en masse. The state offered licenses to only a fraction of those who applied to grow, manufacture and sell marijuana products. Since then, the program has been under fire as politicians and spurned applicants accuse state officials of conflicts of interests and irregularities in the scoring process. Hundreds of administrative appeals and lawsuits have piled up. And earlier this month, Missouri House Democrats accused the state agency responsible for regulating the medical marijuana program of obstructing an oversight committee’s examination of the work. But for all the controversy, the industry continues to mature across the state. Just outside of St. Louis, Earth City-based BeLeaf Medical, the state’s first approved cultivator, is reportedly nearing its first harvest. And Carrolton’s C4 company hopes to start cutting its plants in early October. The state licensed several Kansas City-area cultivators, along with 40 dispensaries. Some of those retail stores plan to open their doors as early as October, but industry experts say supply and variety are likely to be limited as the earliest growers bring in their first harvests. Across the state, only five cultivation facilities and six dispensaries have received final approval to open, according to the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. After it’s harvested, the product must go through statemandated testing. Then it must be dried, and in some cases, processed into other products like gummies or vape cartridges. Klein hopes to get his product into some Kansas City area dispensaries by the end of October. But even then, the industry will take months to develop as

So why would they open?� said Kansas City attorney Christopher McHugh. “It’s kind of a chicken-or-egg thing.� His company won three separate licenses for marijuana cultivation, manufacturing and a dispensary in St. Joseph. Even as patients grow anxious over waiting, he said the market is a ways off from maturity. His firm plans to start growing pot sometime in December. He said some dispensaries have waited to open, worried over the possibility of high prices or low quality with the first rounds of harvests. “The market has not developed to the point where you would be able to meet the expectations of the typical patient, which would be like walking into the typical supermarket where you have lots of variety and product,� he said. “The machine just isn’t running at full power yet.� The Missouri Medical Cannabis Trade Association predicted the industry would create 4,000 jobs and pump half a billion dollars into Missouri’s economy each year. “Our members alone are out there as we speak spending tens of millions of dollars locally in communities,� said Jack Cardetti, spokesman for the trade association. That investment has come as many go jobless because of the coronavirus pandemic. But Cardetti said it’s been particularly helpful in rural communities where cultivators and manufacturers are building new facilities or upgrading abandoned ones. “The loss of manufacturing jobs over the last two decades has hit rural Missouri particularly hard,� he said. “And that’s one of the reasons you’ve seen some of these rural communities really embrace this industry as a new potential for economic activity.� Some of Missouri’s more conservative and rural areas have opposed the industry. But many communities cheered on local applicants, appreciating the economic potential. Places like Chillicothe and Kirksville relaxed zoning standards to encourage marijuana businesses. And in some communities, mayors and police chiefs wrote letters of support as applicants competed for licenses. Cardetti noted that 2018’s Amendment 2 won more than 65% percent of the vote, winning in nearly all of Missouri’s counties. “That didn’t just happen with urban and suburban voters,� said Cardetti, who helped lead the drive for the amendment. “In Carroll County, medical marijuana passed by almost double digits.� Some 70 miles east of

ACROSS MISSOURI / LOCAL

Carrollton • From Page 6 •

Kansas City, Carrollton is the quintessential small town. Main Street Restaurant sells the classic omelets, pork tenderloins and homemade pies. Across the street, the Romanesque county courthouse towers over the tidy green lawn of the town square. Over by the high school, pickup trucks fill the gravel lot of Ol’ Boys Barbecue at lunch hour. And images of the local mascot, the Trojans, hang on ruby red signs all over town. But Carrollton houses a mix of vibrancy and decline. Even on the square, some buildings are boarded up. Little fingers created drawings, like finger paint, on the thick layer of dust covering one storefront. More than three decades after its closure, people still mourn the loss of the Banquet Foods factory, once the town’s

largest employer. “You don’t replace 500 jobs,� said Mayor Scott Bartlett. “The identity of Carrollton for a long time was with Banquet.� In more recent years, another major employer, Fuller Marketing closed its doors. The name of that company, which made retail displays, is still painted on an old brick building downtown. And just last year, Shopko, the town’s big box retailer, closed as that Wisconsin-based chain went out of business. The mayor has lived those losses personally: Now a loan officer at a local bank, he was previously the manager of the Shopko store. And both his parents worked at the Banquet Foods plant back in its heyday. Yet he remains bullish on the future. Not just because of the marijuana facilities, but other developments as well. A local bank is expanding. The school system is adding new

real estate. The Orscheln Farm & Home store is expanding to move into the old Shopko space. And smaller boutiques and retailers are expanding on the square. “The town has struggled to get past that,� he said of the Banquet facility. “But we have a lot of things now that we didn’t have then. We may not have a Starbucks but we’ve got our own coffee shop. We’ve got our own brewpub uptown. We’ve got a lot of things homegrown.� In 2018, the Census reported Carroll County had a median household income of $42,149 — more than $10,000 below the state average of $53,560. In recent years, doctors, lawyers and pharmacists have come back home to Carrollton after leaving to chase education and careers. And the housing market is heating up with a limited inventory and rising home prices. “I don’t want to say it’s a

sleepy little town because it’s very busy,� the mayor said. With a more diverse economy, Carrollton is no longer a company town. But the mayor said it’s just too early to tell whether it might carve out a new identity based on the marijuana business. Could it be “the cannabis capital of Missouri?� “I don’t know if that moniker would stick or not,� he said. But we’ve all got to be the first at something or good at something.� Inside C4, most employees work with dirt under their fingernails. Soil covers hands, arms and T-shirts as they move pots of pot around the facility. The work is a mix of hard labor and science. They plant everything by hand, but the temperature, lighting and humidity of each grow room are closely monitored. The company started growing with seeds but plans to reproduce all plants from clones

in the future. In one room, a narrow aisle separates the racks of towering pot plants, almost ready for harvest. “There’s a lot of challenges, because it’s brand new,� Klein said during a recent tour. A good portion of the structure remains under construction. That’s where staff will manufacture marijuana-infused products like gummies and vape cartridges. Outside, crews are preparing a pad for an expansion of the grow operation. Klein said he’s already spent more than $5 million on the business, a mix of personal debt and investment. But he takes pride in making that investment here. He previously ran a construction business that built clean rooms and pharmaceutical labs. He considered building a marijuana businesses in various locations across Missouri, but felt it would have the most impact — and receive the

warmest welcome — in his hometown. Adding a few jobs in, say, Kansas City would be a blip on the radar. But with 20 people already on board in Carrollton, he said it’s already making a difference in the community. And he hopes his company alone may soon employ more than 100 people. At full capacity, the power needed to run the operation will rival the collective electricity demand for the entire community. That’s partly why the city-owned utility agreed to build a new substation nearby to ensure reliable power. Klein runs the operation with his childhood friend Brandon Green, who just moved back to town to work as C4’s vice president of sales. The two are hoping to be among the first in the state to harvest product on Oct. 1. “Then, every 12 days after that we’re going to harvest for eternity,� Klein said.

marriage. The past is past, and it sounds like you have made amends. Communication is key in any marriage. It's been so long that you and your wife might need to rebuild these communication channels to make this work. Take action and seek the help of a professional marriage counselor. If your wife refuses to go, then you should go yourself. Sometimes, when people use alcohol to numb their feelings for years, they lose touch with them. It's time to go to a therapist or counselor and rediscover how you do feel about things. And keep going to meetings. As they say in AA, the program works if you work it. Dear Annie: I'm a married woman who has been in a secret relationship for three years with a co-worker of mine. My boyfriend died by suicide last week, and my world has been turned upside-down. I was the last person he texted, and he wanted me to come over. I told him I couldn't. A couple of hours later, he was gone. I have been crying uncontrollably ever since, and no one understands why.

Dear Annie: My wife and I are drifting apart. I'm a recovering alcoholic of four years. I put her through a lot when I was drinking. When I got sober, I put my recovery first. I went to a lot of meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous and put her second. Now, she is seeing someone else. I think at this point it's only an emotional affair, not a sexual one. But there have been times when she said she was going out with friends, and I know she went out with him. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I should be angry, and I'm not. But I don't like it -- it bothers me to no end. Communication in our relationship is nonexistent. I'm not sure what to do. -- Drifting Dear Drifting: Let's start with congratulations on your recovery. Four years is something to be very proud of. It sounds like your wife still harbors resentment and pain from your drinking days. I might suggest that she attend Al-Anon meetings to help her better understand why you have to put your recovery first. My guess is that you know that if you didn't, everything else in your life would fall apart, including your

He, too, was in a relationship, and I was led to believe she knew about us and was OK with our relationship. My husband does not know. Because I'm the "other woman," I had no say in anything after his passing and wasn't able to keep anything of his as a memory. My question is this: Would it be wrong to reach out to his family? They do not know about our relationship, and I wonder if I should tell them. I also want a few belongings (just a T-shirt, if anything!), but would it be wrong to ask? -- Grieving "Girlfriend" Dear Grieving Girlfriend: There is a lot to unpack in your letter. First, I am sorry that you lost your boyfriend to suicide. It is truly a tragedy when someone takes their own life. As far as wanting to tell his family that he was having an affair with you, I might hold off for a while. They are grieving the loss of their son. This might be a good time to get into therapy yourself. First, to understand why you felt the need to stay in your marriage, and then to process the trauma of losing your boyfriend to suicide. Assuming you still want to stay married, you owe it to your husband to get into marriage counseling and to come clean with him and hope that you can rebuild your relationship based on trust and forgiveness.

Pixel phone push Less than two months after unveiling a pandemic-priced Pixel phone, Google is now launching the Pixel 5, a high-end version it hopes will still find traction amid global economic chaos. The new Pixel represents the fifth generation of a device intended to highlight the merits of Google designing both phone software and its hardware. But Pixel phones have never really broken into the mainstream, with sales dwarfed by those of Samsung and Apple. Google has sold 19 million Pixel phones since

its 2016 debut, including 3 million of the last model released a year ago, based on estimates from research firm International Data Corp. Apple sold twice as many iPhones in just three months — April to June — during the middle of a pandemic when millions of people were stuck at home. Google is trying to turn the tide with the Pixel 5, which offers new twists, including camera features such as a tool for taking portraits in low lighting. But the Pixel 5’s biggest selling point may be its $700 price, which is $100 less than last year’s model.
