City Tax Hearing

by Diane Lowrey R-T Editor Trenton resident Sadie Roy says she is ready for whatever happens during next week’s Missouri State Fair Queen competition at Sedalia.

The Southeast Missouri State University junior-to-be will be one of 49 women from around the state seeking to become the newest representative of the state’s agriculture industry. Sadie, who will be representing the North Central Missouri Fair, feels her longtime involvement in agriculture as a member of the FFA and as an agriculture education major at Southeast has helped

prepare her to serve in the role of state fair queen.

“As an ag ed major, you learn a lot about different agrelated things and I feel like I can talk about a wide variety of ag topics,” she said. “And as the state fair queen, you are an ambassador for the ag industry and you have to be able to tell its story. I enjoy talking to people, especially when it comes to agriculture, and I would like to be the face of agriculture and educate others about what an impact it has on their lives.”

National Weather Service

Mostly sunny and hot throughout the weekend with highs in the low 90s and only a slight chance of rain. Lows will be in the mid-60s. The high on Monday at the Government Weather Station at Trenton was 82, Tuesday’s high was 86 and Wednesday’s high was 91, the low was 65. The high on Wednesday at the Government Weather Station near Spickard was 90, the low was 57.

The city of Trenton will hold its public tax rate hearing during the Monday, Aug. 13 council meeting at city hall.

The hearing will be at 7 p.m. The city is proposing a tax rate of $1.0699 on the $100 assessed valuation, which is higher than last year due to a slight drop in the city’s assessed valuation. Last year’s rate was $1.0580.

The proposed tax includes 90.36 cents for general revenue, which would generate approximately $490,000, and 16.63 cents for the park department, which would generate approximately $88,500.

Local Voters Heading To Polls

Election judges have been named for the Tuesday, Aug. 7 Primary Election, which will find Grundy County voters electing the county’s presiding county commissioner and taking a stand on the controversial “right to work” legislation.

Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m., with absentee voting taking place until 5 p.m., on Monday, Aug. 6.

The only Grundy County race - and the one that will likely bring out the most local voters - is the one on the Republican ballot for Grundy County presiding commissioner. With no one filing on the Democrat ballot, the race will be decided in the primary.

The contest pits incumbent Rick Hull against two challengers, Mark Moore and Phillip Ray. On the Republican ticket, there are several candidates not facing any opposition, including Grundy County Associate Judge Steve Hudson, Circuit Clerk and Ex-Officio Recorder of Deeds Becky Stanturf, County Clerk Betty Spickard and Prosecuting Attorney Carrie Lamm Clark.

Tom Alley has filed as a Republican for Third Circuit presiding judge, with the incumbent, Jack Peace not seeking re-election.

Republican voters will also choose among 11 candidates for U.S. senator, including Tony Monetti, Austin Petersen, Josh Hawley, Fred Ryman, Christina Smith, Kristi Nichols, Bradley Krembs, Ken Patterson, Brian G. Haag, Courtland Sykes and Peter Pfeifer. Four candidates have filed as Republicans for state auditor, including Kevin M. Roach, David Wasinger, Paul Curtman and Saundra McDowell. Those without a challenger in the primary election include incumbents Sam Graves, Sixth District U.S. representative; Dan Hegeman, 12th District state senator; and Rusty Black, Seventh District state representative.

On the Democrat side, no one has filed for the county offices. Voters will have to choose between seven candidates who have filed for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Claire McCaskill.

Those attempting to unseat her in the primary are Carla (Coffee) Wright, Angelica Earl, Leonard Joseph Steinman II, John Hogan, Travis Gonzalez and David Faust.

Incumbent Nicole Galloway is not facing a competitor in the state auditor’s race, but three candidates, Winston Apple, Henry Robert Martin and Ed Andres will be vying for the opportunity to face Graves in the November Gen-

Trenton Independents 2, Indianapolis Clowns 1

Clowns Visit To Trenton Remembered

By Seth Herrold R-T Sports Editor Trenton has always had a rich baseball tradition. Despite the high school not offering baseball until just recently, the town and the sport have had a deep connection dating back years.

There are stories of Yogi Berra belting a home run at Burleigh Grimes Field, tales of Grimes himself sitting at the field taking in youth baseball games and legends of Trenton Blue Jays American Legion teams through the years.

One such story from Trenton’s baseball past happened in late August, nearly 50 years ago. It was the night the Indianapolis Clowns came to town.

The Clowns team was a member of the Negro American League from 1943-1955, rostering several future major leaguers such as Hank Aaron. But as Major League Baseball began allowing black players into its ranks, the Negro Leagues began to dwindle. The Clowns would hold on, however, continuing to play as a barnstorming independent team. By 1966, the Clowns were the last of the Negro League teams left playing games. By this point, though, the Clowns were playing the game more as a humorous sideshow rather than a competitive sport. “(The Clowns) were one of the last of the barnstorming teams,” said Mike Arbuckle, who played in the game when Indianapolis visited Trenton. “The players weren’t making enough in the Negro Leagues, so they started barnstorming for extra money. When the Negro Leagues folded, barnstorming became their only source of income.”

In the Clowns’ post-Negro League barnstorming days, they gained a reputation as the Harlem Globetrotters of the baseball diamond, traveling the country as a comedic act. That’s not to say the team wasn’t competitive, however. Even with the team’s knack for garnering laughs

from the crowd, the Clowns claimed victories in 80 percent of their games.

On Aug. 25, 1971, the Clowns descended on Burleigh Grimes Field to take on a team simply known as the Trenton Independents. What the visitors couldn’t have possibly known, however, was that Trenton’s local nine was far from your typical local team.

Trenton’s roster boasted multiple players who had been involved in professional baseball organizations. Arbuckle had been drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals. Junior Mullenix had also spent time in the Cardinals organization while Ray Ricono was in the Detroit Tigers system for two or three years. Dick Franklin, a Princeton athlete, would play football and baseball with the University of Missouri and Rich Griffith was a member of Missouri Western’s first baseball team after becoming a four-year school. Shane Cavanah, who was also on the Trenton squad, and Ricono would both go on to serve stints as the Trenton High School head football coach in later years.

The loaded Trenton lineup would also include Bob Johnson, who pitched against the Clowns in the match-up. Johnson was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in Major League Baseball’s first-ever draft in 1965. He would pitch in the Dodgers organization for multiple years.

Johnson’s curveball was a tremendous pitch and the Clowns found out firsthand just how good it really was. Johnson allowed just three hits in the game and struck out 13 Clowns as the Trenton Independents went on to take the seven-inning game by a 2-1 score.

Griffith and Franklin were responsible for Trenton’s two runs in the win and each had two hits to pace the Independent’s offense. Mullenix had the big hit in the game, driving in both runs for Trenton with a two-out hit in the first inning. The five hits for the three players combined

represented Trenton’s total for the game.

“I think we surprised them,” Arbuckle said. “They were kind of used to going around thumping on these local teams and we were a little better than the average local team.”

All of the runs came in the first two frames of the seven-inning affair. After Trenton’s runs were plated in the bottom of the first, the Clowns responded, scoring their lone run of the game in the top of the second.

While the game itself will live on in Trenton baseball lore, it was the following game that Arbuckle will always remember the most for the Clowns’ visit to Trenton.

On the way into town, the Clowns’ bus broke down. While the team made other arrangements to get to its next game, one player had to stay behind to wait on the bus to be repaired. He would suit up and join Trenton for the Independents’ next game, the season finale against the Kansas City Giants.

“I just remember that guy was on the bench for us and we let him pinch hit,” Arbuckle said. “When he went to the plate, he stepped into the batter’s box backwards, facing the catcher. The catcher was giving the pitcher the sign and when he looked up and saw the batter facing him he jumped up out of his crouch and stepped back. I think it gave him quite a scare.”

That was the Clowns’ brand of baseball, getting laughs and winning games. But when the team visited Trenton on that night all those years ago, there would not be a win to celebrate. Trenton’s Independents, as they did so often in those days, walked off the field as winners.

The Clowns would continue their baseball circus for almost two more decades before finally disbanding in 1989, bringing to close the barnstorming era of baseball.

Cueto’s Season Cut Short

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The San Francisco Giants say right-hander Johnny Cueto will have season-ending Tommy John surgery.

Cueto will be operated on by Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles on Thursday. San Francisco announced Wednesday that Cueto would need the surgery, two days after placing him on the disabled list.

Manager Bruce Bochy said earlier this week that Cueto's elbow injury had "been lingering quite a while."

The 32-year-old Cueto is 3-2 with a 3.23 ERA. He was on the 60-day DL earlier this year with an elbow injury.

Meyer On Paid Leave

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Urban Meyer's job appears to be in jeopardy.

Ohio State placed Meyer, one of the most successful coaches in college football history, on paid administrative leave Wednesday while it investigates claims that his wife knew about allegations of domestic violence against an assistant coach years before the staff member was fired last week.

Zach Smith, who has never been convicted of any crimes, was fired last week after an Ohio court granted a domestic violence protective order to Courtney Smith.

Chiefs Hope Splitting LB Coaching Duties Pays Off

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — When Dee Ford was asked what excited him most about the Kansas City Chiefs' defense, the fifth-year linebacker could have talked about finally being healthy or an influx of new young players.

Instead, the first thing that came to mind was the revamped coaching staff.

Ford hardly meant that as a slight to Garry Gibbs, the long-

time linebackers coach who was let go after the Kansas City defense folded like a lawn chair in the playoffs. Rather it spoke volumes about the benefits that came with coach Andy Reid separating one position into two: Mike Smith was promoted to outside linebackers coach and Mark DeLeone was promoted to inside linebackers coach.

"I'm very happy for a lot of

young coaches that have an opportunity now," said Ford, who enters the final year of his rookie deal trying to recapture what once made him a firstround draft pick.

"We brought in some great guys," he said, "and some new faces in new positions."

The decision to restructure defensive coordinator Bob Sutton's staff was in response to the way linebackers are used in the modern NFL. There is very little in common between outside linebackers and inside linebackers these days, and the increased use of hybrid linebackers — essentially safeties that have moved into the box — adds another layer of complexity to the defense.

The way they rush the quarterback is different. Same with the way they drop into coverage or stop the run. And one of

the inside linebackers carries the headset connecting him to the coaches; that means he's responsible for calling the play and getting everybody in position.

"That's a big position to just have one person doing, so we did split it up and it seems to be working fine," Reid said.

"They've been able to get more individual work, more film study, specific to their positions, and they're completely different positions."

Especially in the 3-4 defensive scheme.

"When you have both of (the linebackers) in the same room and you're talking about inside, what are the outside guys doing?" Smith asked.

"Now you're talking about pass rushes, so in a 3-4 you have to separate them. ... You just get to focus on those guys

and you really get to dive in deep."

It's especially helpful this season, when the Chiefs are trying to rebuild a linebacker corps without Derrick Johnson and Tamba Hali for the first time in years. Newcomers such as Anthony Hitchens and rookies Breeland Speaks and Dorian O'Daniel get more oneon-one time with the coaching staff, allowing them to get up to speed much more quickly.

The Redskins and 49ers have similar setups on their coaching staffs, and new Titans coach Mike Vrabel brought in Tyrone McKenzie to coach inside linebackers and Shane Bowen to work with the outside linebackers when he was hired this past offseason.

Joey Porter handles the outside for the Steelers and Jerry Olsavsky handles the inside.

"It's great because we have somebody who keys in on the things we're going to do at practice that day," Redskins linebacker Preston Smith said.

"We've got a lot of emphasis on a lot of technique we need to work on throughout the day, and on the plays we're going to run and the footwork and the things it takes as an outside linebacker. It's kind of hard for an inside linebacker coach."

Packers associate head coach Winston Moss handles outside linebackers and Patrick Graham doubles as inside coach and run game defensive coordinator. A few other teams have a quality control coach lending a hand. But the majority of teams still rely on a single linebackers coach.

"It's great just to have an outside linebackers coach," said Justin Houston, now the elder statesman of the Chiefs' corps. "There's so much we get to do now just focusing on ourselves and the little things we need to work on. I think last year, we had a lot going on.

You have to coach a lot of guys, inside and out. It's hard to do that in the little bit of time you have. Now you have a separate coach, we can just focus on one thing: that's us."

As a member of the Ag Club and the Collegiate FFA, she helps with “Ag Days,” where college students go into the classrooms of the Cape Girardeau School District and share information about the agriculture industry.

SUPER TEEN CONTEST A team representing the Trenton FFA captured top honors in the Super Teen Contest held on Wednesday night at the grandstand.

Trenton Horsepower bested a team from Jamesport to claim the 2018 championship from among seven teams com-

lands and Ecuador, studying about how agriculture works in those areas as well as visiting several farms. And her most recent interest involves a hydroponics project in Haiti developed by her landlord, who plans to establish a similar project at a farm in Sikeston.

“It’s really cool the things that are going on in agriculture,” she said, adding she has been asked to help with the Sikeston project and plans to do so.

Following graduation, Sadie would like to teach in a rural Missouri School, sharing with students some of the things she has been able to learn thus far.

But her work won’t stop there.

“After about five years, I really would like to go to a charter school in the inner city and teach those students about how they are connected with agriculture and its impact on their lives,” she said. “There’s a lot of ag-related things that they can do even though they live in the city and I want to teach them about those things they may not know.”

Competition for the Mis-

souri State Fair Queen title begins on Wednesday, Aug. 8 with the interviews. On Thursday, contestants will take part in the talent/speech competition, followed by formalwear judging. The new queen will then be named that evening.

“It’s a busy two days, but it will be a busy two weeks if I would happen to win,” she said, adding that the queen is involved in some way in nearly all of the fair events.

“Lots of pictures, lots of ribbons, lots of kids.”

Sadie will be giving a speech during the talent/speech portion of the competition. She has titled it “10 Seconds” and will talk about how 10 seconds of courage leads to a lifetime of passion - in this case a passion about agriculture.

Speeches cannot be more than two minutes and Sadie said she is around the 1 minute, 56 second mark.

“They deduct points if you go over, so I’m going to be spending a lot of time up until the pageant working on making sure I don’t go past two minutes,” she said.

Her older sister, Breilly, who competed in the state competition in 2016 and was the third runner-up, has helped with Sadie’s preparation - mostly by video as Breilly is spending the summer in Maine working on her master’s degree.

“I’ll record something and send it to her and she’ll give me some suggestions where I could improve,” she said, adding she has also received help from several of her instructors at Southeast. “Everyone’s been great about helping out.”

While excited at the prospect of becoming the state

fair queen, Sadie already has her next move planned if she isn’t selected as the winner.

“I’ll be there (at the state fair) showing my cattle,” she said. “So I won’t be going anywhere, at least until after Tuesday.”

Sadie is the daughter of Scott and Cindy Roy of Trenton.

The Final Word

OP/ED

TRENTON REPUBLICAN-TIMES, DAILY, TRENTON, MO.

by Diane Lowrey R-T Editor

What A Weekend

If you didn’t get the chance to attend the second annual Mid-America Music Festival in Trenton last weekend, you missed a great time.

Black Silo Winery hosted the twoday event, which featured 15 bands playing a variety of music ranging from rock and blues to bluegrass and country. Throw in the near-perfect weather and the tasty food provided by area vendors and it made for a wonderful way to spend a weekend.

While a good-size crowd attended the inaugural festival in 2017, the Diane Lowrey 2018 event saw those numbers grow two to three times, especially during Saturday night ‘s lineup that included Uncle Kracker. Those numbers should be encouraging to festival organizers, who are already discussing plans for next year’s event.

What I was most impressed with, other than the music (it was all great), was how well everyone got along, no matter what age they were. It wasn’t unusual to see a group that included both the 60-somethings and the under-30s sitting together, visiting and enjoying the day.

I can’t begin to tell you how many people I got the chance to visit with - individuals that I hadn’t seen in years - who had moved away, but came back home for the festival. As I told Laura Forman Shields, I feel like I ran into nearly every person that I have ever taken a photo of in my 40 years with the Republican-Times.

Events such as the festival are a great economic boost for the community and hats off to Duane and Jen Hottes Urich, owners of Black Silo Winery, who took on this effort two years ago as an economic development venture, with this year’s event being used to help raise money for the Green Hills Women’s Shelter. With the assistance of many, many volunteers, the Urichs’ dream is now a reality and we in Trenton and the surrounding community are reaping the benefits. ********** In a little over two weeks, students in area school districts will be returning to the classroom to begin the 2018-19 school year. The Republican-Times “Back to School” edition, featuring information for Grundy County schools including Trenton R-9, Grundy R-5, Pleasant View R-6, Laredo R-7 and Spickard R-2, is included in today’s R-T on pages 10-13. Information about the Bright Futures Trenton Back to School Event on Aug. 9 is also included.

What Others Are Saying....

Farm Bailout Not The Answer

Trump supporters can be found throughout the Midland Empire, and for good reason: Much of what loyalists sought in a new president has come to pass.

Still, this is proving to be a complicated relationship.

Guest Editorials

Set aside all the Twitter chatter, all of the ego-driven clashes with the press and public figures around the world, this is a president who has asserted his will and followed through on many of his campaign promises.

His dealings with North Korea and Russia are muddled, and still subject to interpretation, but his eagerness to reassert America's interests on the world stage has many fans. The same is true for his spat with NATO allies, who agreed after Trump's prodding to put billions more into financing our collective security.

Seeking to redraw international agreements he considers one-sided, Trump also has disrupted NAFTA and trade relations with both China and the European Economic Union.

NAFTA partners in Mexico and Canada are still talking with us, and the EU and Trump have brokered a stand-down from escalating tensions. But China — well, we're on the leading edge of a trade war marked by tariffs and counter-tariffs.

The $12 billion in farm aid announced last week, as an offset to harm caused to farmers by the tariffs, is hardly the best

use of government dollars. Farmers appreciate the help, but they would rather have free access to trade their goods on the world markets.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to borrow money from the Treasury to pay producers of soybeans, sorghum, corn, wheat, cotton, dairy and hogs. USDA also plans to buy the surplus of commodities that would have been exported and distribute it to food banks and other nutrition programs.

A third initiative will focus on helping farm groups develop new export markets.

Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue describes the aid program as a "short-term" remedy to deal with market disruptions while the government pursues fairer long-term trade deals.

But listen to the informed response of U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran of Kansas: "Recently-imposed tariffs are having immediate effects on farmers, ranchers and manufacturers, but the long-term implications of disrupting supply chains and losing market shares that took decades to build up is perhaps even more concerning.

"It is time to inject more certainty into our trade policies. We ought to start by reaching an agreement on a modernized NAFTA and ending the threat of escalating a trade war."

With due respect to what President Trump seeks to accomplish, this — not more tariffs or a bailout of farmers — is what is needed now.

DROUGHT HITS SWEET CORN EARS; SAME MAY HURT FARMER’S CORN

Sweet corn from the grocery showed me what may be happening in corn fields across Missouri. Most corn growing counties are under drought stress.

That sweet corn looked normal in the store. I buy ears still in green shucks the way corn ears were when I was a farm boy.

Now, stores sell shucked ears wrapped in see-through plastic. I prefer nature’s way.

When shucked and boiled the ears looked normal. But when I bit them, there wasn’t much there. Kernels weren’t even half size, not much corn on the cob. Not normal.

Our MU climatologist just reported this drought looks like 2012, when a major drought upset farm economics.

As I drive across corn counties I see good looking corn fields. I wonder if those ears on the cornstalks are like the sweet corn I tried to eat.

During critical kernel filling weeks, there was only spotty rains on corn fields. A few fields got a thundershower.

Many did not. What looks like a good corn on a quick driveby, may not be.

Corn is persnickety. It must have moisture at critical times during growth, particularly during silking and tasseling. As

Drought Affecting Subsoil, Crops

Temperatures last week averaged 74.1 degrees, 3.3 degrees below normal.

Precipitation averaged 0.19 inches statewide, 0.80 inches below normal. There were 6.3 days suitable for fieldwork for the week ending July 29. Topsoil moisture supply was rated 33 percent very short, 42 percent short and 25 percent adequate. Subsoil moisture supply was rated 42 percent very short, 36 percent short and 22 percent adequate.

Corn dough progressed to 73 percent, 31 percentage points ahead of the five-year average. Corn dented reached 12 percent. Corn condition was rated 12 percent very poor, 19 percent poor, 36 percent fair, 28 percent good and

forage for winter grazing.

In 2012, the soy crop wasn’t hit with a political storm. This time, soybeans may make a crop, but prices will be down.

Beans are caught in a political war between our President and China.

Farmers become casualties in his trade war. Protection for steel workers becomes a slam on farmers, inadvertent casualties.

Decisions were made on whim not economics. Farmers learn to live with weather whims. Maybe they can learn to live with whims of a socialistic federal bailout. In the past, free enterprise and free-trade economics rewarded farmers.

Now, government will take over to pay.

What seems a long time ago, Jimmy Carter thought he could outfox free trade. He couldn’t. Farmers took the brunt of damage from his whimsical decision.

So, farmers wait and see.

Either drought or drought-

I’ve written before, a corn crop is a sex story. Pollination, matching pollen from tassels at the top of the plant with individual silks from each kernel site on the cob, must occur in perfect weather.

Corn is one-and-done. Soybeans are a far different sex story. At each node up the soybean stem, there are several potential blossoms at each branch. If the first bloom doesn’t pollinate, it dies and falls off. A new bloom emerges.

The bean plant tries again and again to make pods. That requires pollination, plant sex in bean fields.

In that extreme drought of 2012, corn failed. Soybeans made a crop. Big rains, remnants of a gulf coast hurricane the first of September, saved the soybeans on their last blossoms.

5 percent excellent.

Soybeans blooming progressed to 78 percent, 22 percentage points ahead of the five-year average. Soybeans setting pods progressed to 43 percent, 11 percentage points ahead of last year. Soybean condition was rated 7 percent very poor, 18 percent poor, 35 percent fair, 35 percent good and 5 percent excellent.

Sorghum turning color progressed to 8 percent. Sorghum condition was rated 1 percent very poor, 20 percent poor, 41 percent fair, 35 percent good and 3 percent excellent.

Last year, I wrote an article about Japanese Beetles. This non-native insect pest has been a problem in North America since it was introduced in New Jersey in 1916. It has been spreading slowly west through the years, and unfortunately is found in increasing numbers in our Northwest Extension Region.

Japanese Beetles are not picky eaters, and are known to feed on more than 400 species, including trees, shrubs, flowers, fruits, vegetables, field crops, and turf. In high numbers, they can skeletonize leaves, resulting in a plant with only a framework of veins where the leaf should be. Their grubs also feed on the roots of plants, including grass in lawns and golf courses.

Numerous complaints are coming in. Two people, for example, have called me from Caldwell County and reported extremely high numbers on various types of plants.

One vineyard in Daviess County has experienced a high infestation for the second year in

a row. Grapes are one of their favorite foods.

I also discussed the situation with Andy Luke, MU Extension regional agronomist in Bethany.

He is seeing Japanese Beetles in almost every county he serves, mainly on soybeans.

While they are not occurring in high enough numbers to cause significant damage, it is expected that the populations will build until they reach a point where control in necessary.

The two other horticulturists in our Northwest Extension Region are also reporting increased Japanese Beetle problems. Tom Fowler, horticulture specialist in St. Joseph, has been trapping them for years. This year, he reports extremely high numbers in his traps.

Kathi Mecham, Commercial Horticulture Specialist in Carrollton, reports that some of the counties that have seen Japanese Beetle infestations in previous years vary in how hard they have been hit this year. But Ray County has especially been hit

University of Missouri Extension introduced a new mobile app to identify herbicide injury at its annual Pest Management Field Day on July 10.

MU Extension weed specialist Mandy Bish says Herbicide Injury ID lets users send photos of injured plants to MU Extension for preliminary diagnosis and feedback.

When the app launches,

users can choose from four options: diagnose injury, search by herbicide, view sites of action, or send photos and detailed descriptions to MU. Download the Herbicide Injury ID app from the Apple App Store or Google Play on any mobile device.

breaking rains will decide their fate. Trade resolve depends on what our leader decides on any given day. We live in interesting times.

Here’s another whimsy. A corporate decision to release a not fully tested chemical weed killer adds doubt to soybean yields. The herbicide works effectively on soybeans genetically modified to resist the spray. The unexpected damage comes to many other crops, fruits and vegetables.

Vapor from the chemical leaves farms and kills plants in town, whether shade trees, flowers or gardens. We’ve never seen anything like what’s happening in farm country.

Such interesting times make great work for investigative reporters digging out stories.

Just facts and truth of the matter.

hard by Japanese Beetles this year.

Jennifer Schutter is a horticulture specialist in the Northeast Extension Region, headquartered in Kirksville. She says that Japanese Beetles are bad in Audrain and Randolph counties, but they have also been reported in Lewis, Clark and Adair counties. She also has a Japanese Beetle trap, but fortunately is not collecting the number that Tom Fowler is in St. Joseph. They have mainly been reported on grapevines and various ornamental plants. Unfortunately, their numbers are increasing each week.

Japanese Beetle adults are metallic green in color, with copper-colored wing sheathes on their backs. They have six white tufts on each side of their ab3 not large, typidomen. They are cally measuring about three-eighths of an inch in length.

Insecticides are available to control Japanese Beetles, but they can be difficult to eliminate because of their potentially large numbers and ability to feed on so many different kinds of plants. It’s best to use a liquid spray and apply it during the evening. Dusts can get on the hairs of bees and be carried back to the hive. So use a liquid, whenever possible. , For more information, I have included some links to several university resources on my web site.

Whiskey & Wine Tour Oct. 13

Openings remain for the second annual University of Missouri Extension White Oak, Whiskey and Wine Tour on Saturday, Oct. 13. The allday tour toasts the state’s unique contributions to the wine and whiskey industries.

MU Extension forester Hank Stelzer and MU Extension viticulturist Dean Volenberg lead the mid-Missouri tour, which starts in a white oak forest. Missouri’s white oak is used in more than 1.5 million barrels each year.

These barrels go to some of the most prestigious wineries and distilleries in America and abroad, says Stelzer.

The tour by coach bus highlights two cooperages in the Randolph County town of Higbee. Attendees will see how white oak logs are made ready for the cooper. The Oak Cooperage produces barrels for the company’s Napa Valley winery. Barrel 53 Cooperage produces barrels for distilleries across the region. Lunch is provided at The Oak Cooperage.

The tour ends at the Les Bourgeois Vineyards and Winery near Rocheport. There, attendees will see the barreling of wine and learn how the white oak barrel imparts its unique traits to a wine’s character. Distillers from Wood Hat Spirits of New Florence will tell how to create unique distilled spirits using Missouri products.

The tour begins 8:30 a.m.

Saturday, Oct. 13, at Hilton Garden Inn in Columbia next to Bass Pro Shop and returns to the hotel around 4:30 p.m.

Cost is $75 per person or $125 per couple and includes transportation, lunch and wine and spirits tasting for those of legal age. Registration deadline is Sept. 30. Cancelations will be accepted until Sept. 30 less a $25 nonrefundable fee.

A block of rooms has been reserved until Sept. 21 at the Hilton Garden Inn. Call the hotel at 573-814-5464 to reserve a room.

Seating is limited to 56 people. To register, persons can go to the website, extension2.missouri.edu/event s/white-oak-whiskey-andwine-tour.

Family Reunion Ferguson

The 44th annual reunion of the Roy and Pauline Woods Ferguson family was held on Saturday, June 23 at the YMCA, Chillicothe with 42 in attendance.

A short business meeting followed the carry-in luncheon. Doris Ferguson said the prayer before the meal.

As this was the last scheduled reunion for the family, it was decided to use any monies remaining in the treasury to repair cemetery stones for the late sister and late brother, Elizabeth, “Lizzy” Woods and Jarvis G. Woods.

Roy and Pauline were the parents of eight children and had 36 grandchildren. Their first and their youngest of those grandchildren were pres-

ent at the reunion. Ann Ferguson Fruits was their first grandchild and Timothy Peters was the youngest of their grandchildren. Three of their children, Mary Ferguson Lawson, Martha Ferguson Peters and Roy Ferguson, Jr., are living but were unable to attend. The families of Roy and Pauline have grown so large that it was decided to end the Roy and Polly Ferguson reunion in favor of each of the eight families having their own reunion.

Those in attendance from Trenton were Doris Ferguson, Luke Shackelford, David and Vickie Ferguson, Gary Ferguson, Dan and Anna Ferguson and Noah Boyd.

Those in attendance from outside of Trenton were Kristy

Eckerson, Gracie, Cayden, Camden, and Cearstyn of Bethany; David and Charla Eads, Mark and Kacey Taylor, Morgan and Kaylin, Stan Peters and Ray Coombs of Hamilton; Troy and Rinda Williams, Bailey Musto and Jessica Shackelford of Chillicothe; Jerry and Blaine Keuhn of Platte City; Alesia Ferguson and Tabby Williams, Ty and Tenley of Kansas City; Kevin and Tina Kirby and Blake of Peculiar; and Earl and Ann Fruits and Yuri Keuhn of Nixa.

Those attending from out of state were Tim Peters of Overland Park, KS; and Jenny Vohler, Kaden, Mason and Wyatt of International Falls, MN.

The 37th annual Wilford family reunion of the descendants of Jacob and Elizabeth Wilford was held on Sunday, July 29 at First Baptist Church of Trenton.

Following the blessing, a carry-in dinner was served to 62 persons. There was a time of preparation and fellowship prior to the business meeting.

President Debbie Maiwald, with assistance from the junior co-president Dustin Campbell and substitute secretary Rhonda Johnson, presided over the business meeting. Officers elected for 2019 were Dustin Campbell, president; Debbie Maiwald, co-president; Rhonda Johnson, secretary; and Karla Worthington, treasurer. It was voted to make a

donation to First Baptist Church of Trenton.

Winners in the cookoff contest were announced, followed by games, prizes, and children’s entertainment.

Those present were Delvin and Jennie Wilford, Barbara and Larry Stoops, Craig, Laurie and Shaina Frisbie, Logan and Jacob Trickel, Mike and Sherry Knapp, guest Kara Arthaud and five children, Luetta Lambrecht and Rhonda and Dale Johnson, Justin and Socha Osborn and Azerya, Stephanie, LeAnna, Austin and Wyatt Whitney of Trenton; Kendall and Debby Osborn of Imperial; Tim, Amy, Emma Jean, Sophia, Jackson and Noah Burke of Odessa; Dan and Carol Wilford of Laredo;

Thank You

The family of Dude Lankford would like to thank their family and friends for the many acts of kindness, memorials, cards, food and prayers. We also want to thank Wright Memorial Hospital, Sunnyview Nursing Home and Slater Funeral Home for their compassionate care. We especially want to thank Rev. Steve Merrin for the comforting service and the Hodge Presbyterian Church for their generous hospitality and the lunch. Your caring sympathy truly helped ease our sorrow.

Cathy Rice On Sunday morning, July 29, the Shelburne Baptist Church youth choir sang “If We Pray.” Pastor Aaron Stark spoke using Mark 8:27-29 as reference.

On Saturday, July 28, Donnzetta Prewitt attended the 50th wedding anniversary reception for Buddy and Karla Hannaford.

Karen Prewitt hosted Dean and Cathy Rice, Eric and Amanda Spears, Marty Prewitt of Bethany and Rob and Lisa Kincaid of Gladstone at her home this week.

Dean and Cathy Rice and Karen Prothero had several guests over the past week, including Marty Prewitt, John and Margaret Rice, Karen Prewitt, Tyann Cox, Laura Prewitt, and Barbara Cox of Buffalo. Barbara lived in the Hickory community and went to school with Karen Prewitt in 1963. She is currently a translator of English to Creole as a missionary to Haiti.

Oh my goodness, what wonderful weather for putting up corn. With some irrigation, we've had a wonderful crop of sweet corn this year. I've forgotten the name, but the ears are huge and full of wonderful flavor. The poor ole cows are enjoying the stalks and wish we would put more corn up.

This drought year has been a trial on nerves and fear for the winter months. We're going to need to get creative with our feeding practices. With the cooler temperatures we have enjoyed being outside without mosquitoes. It seems strange to live here in the river bottom and not be batting away giant mosquitoes. republican-times.com

THE Daily Commuter Puzzle by Jacqueline E. Mathews

D

ear Annie

counseling could provide you both with the tools you need to begin repairing your relationship. Make an appointment today, and implore her to go, for the sake of the marriage.

Dear Annie: Please refrain from using subjective labels -such as elderly, senior and aging -- when referring to people over a certain age. These labels are no longer recommended in journalism, as they are loaded with negative stereotypes and are offensive, hurtful and insulting to many people. How would you like to be called "elderly" if you were a healthy, vigorous and youthful-looking 75-year-old person? If a person is frail or inform, then say the person is "medically frail." "Elderly" is not a synonym for older. And "aging" is a word that applies to every living entity from day one.

A newborn begins "aging" as soon as it enters the world, so please quit using it to mean an older person. It is an ugly word, more suited to a piece of old cheese turning green in the back of the fridge. The correct term for this demographic is "older adult." Or better yet, just give their age (if it is relevant) and leave off the labels, just as you would not use labels for race, color, sexual orientation, etc., that carry negative connotations.

-- Oregon Reader Dear Oregon Reader: I try to be mindful of such things, but sometimes I slip up. Thank you for the reminder. Language matters.

Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for several years. "Cindy" seemed to be "the one" -- someone who completed my life and truly loved me.

However, at one point after we were married, I found out she was receiving inappropriate emails from a co-worker. She said they were just jokes between two "friends." She insisted that she had never been physically unfaithful to me. She also insists that there is no such thing as an "emotional affair."

I then ended up catching up with a friend of mine, "Don," on the phone. Don is usually extremely talkative. As soon as I brought up some concerns about my wife, the conversation abruptly became very awkward.

He began stammering -- making such comments as, "Well, when a very pretty woman gets older and gets attention and compliments from other guys, she, uh, well..."

At that point, I stopped him and said, "Just what are you talking about?" After a long pause, he said, "I think that you'd be better off talking to your wife about this."

Since then, I have not been able to regain communication with Don. Calls have not been returned.

As I thought more and more about it, I realized that this didn't necessarily mean that Don was himself doing something -- but it did seem likely that he knew of something going on.

I got up the courage to confront my wife about this conversation with Don and basically got the old brushoff. She couldn't recall any "recent" times of running into Don or any recent conversations.

To make matters even stranger, she keeps all her electronic devices locked with pass codes, which she refuses to share with me. I've given her the pass codes to all my devices.

Why am I writing to you? I guess it's just to validate my feelings -- to hear that I don't deserve this. And I'm hoping you can point me toward some type of solution. -- Deja Vu All Over Again and Again Dear Deja Vu: You have my validation -- and then some.

Something is definitely up with your wife. It may not have to do with Don, but there's somebody, and it may not be physical, but it's at least emotional. (There is such a thing as emotional cheating, even if your wife doesn't believe it.) At the very least, there is a communication breakdown between you two. Marriage

More job security Layoffs are getting rare in the U.S. economy.

As of the middle of July, there were 1.75 million people collecting unemployment benefits, according to the Labor Department. This is the lowest total since 1973 — an incredible achievement since the U.S. population has grown roughly 50 percent since then to about 326 million people. The dwindling number of people receiving benefits is a sign that economic growth will continue,

since, in the past, an increase has been a harbinger of a recession.

Applications for jobless aid are considered to be a proxy for layoffs. The weekly number of applications has steadily declined for more than a decade as the U.S. economy has gradually recovered from the depths of the Great Recession. The number of applications for the week ended on July 21 was 217,000, a modest increase from a nearly five-decade low of 208,000 during the prior week.

Fewest Americans getting jobless aid since 1973

The total number of people getting unemployment benefits has tumbled to the lowest level since December 1973.

The Trenton R-9 district will be implementing an online registration process for students grades kindergarten through twelfth. This is a new procedure that will make the process of enrolling Trenton R-9 students easier and quicker than ever before.

As a parent, or guardian, of a Trenton R-9 student, what do I need to know....

1. The registration window for previously enrolled students will open on August 1, 2018. All Trenton R-9 students will need to be registered before the first day of school on August 21, 2018.

2. New students to the Trenton R-9 District will need to visit their school building from August 1 to August 14 for assistance in the registration process.

3. Trenton R-9 parents and guardians will need access to the parent portal to complete the registration process. Beginning August 1, parents can log-in to parent-portal and then select the registration tile. For those who cannot access parent portal, please contact your school. A link to the parent portal can be found on the school website. (www.trentonr9.k12.mo.us)

4. For those parents and guardians needing assistance with the registration process, an open house day has been scheduled. Please stop by the Trenton High School gym on Thursday, August 9 from 9:00 - 4:00 for help. In addition, if you do not have access to a computer, one will be provided to complete the registration process.

The Trenton R-9 District is pleased to offer this convenience to the patrons of the district. If assistance is needed in the registration process, please contact your child’s office for help.

Locations: Trenton High School, First Christian Church, First Baptist Church Activity Center, Trenton Cinema, Moberly Park and Trenton Aquatic Center

Pass the Pride Bright Futures Trenton has been collecting gently used Trenton Bulldog apparel from the community since last April for this event. Trenton citizens have been very responsive in donating clothing to be shared with families in need.

Our goal is to make the clothing available to students who may not otherwise be able to afford a Trenton Bulldog t-shirt or sweatshirt. On August 9th those students may choose an article of clothing for their use.

School Supplies Our community has really stepped up to help with providing backpacks and school supplies for students who might not otherwise be able to purchase the necessary supplies for their school year. Churches throughout the community have collected the suggested supplies from their congregations all summer. Businesses have joined in, as well as individuals, in making donations to get supplies in the hands of students who need them. Lynn Griffin, Abby Oberman and Elizabeth Gibson have worked hard to coordinate this part of our event. Trenton R-9 students who need this assistance will want to come to THS to get a backpack and a portion of the supplies. They will then want to participate in the health screenings at the First Christian Church being provided by Grundy County Health Department to receive the rest of the basic supplies they will need. Students from other schools in Grundy County will receive basic supplies when they participate in the GCHD health screenings, as well. The GCHD School Health Fair is for all students in Grundy County.

First Baptist Church Activity Center 4:00-7:00 Clothing Room The First Baptist Church is sponsoring a clothing room for families in need at this event.

They will have like new clothing to choose from, in all sizes, available at no cost. They are collecting additional clothing donations for this event on Monday, August 6th, 8-12 and 5:006:30 or on Tuesday, August 7th, 1:30-6:00 at their Activity Center. Donated clothing should be in clean and like new condition. Sizes preschool through adult are needed.

Shoe Ministry Hodge Presbyterian’s New Soles for Bright Futures ministry will be held at this location, as

well. Church members held a Drive-thru Tenderloin fundraiser recently to generate funds to purchase shoes for this needs-based ministry.

They have also collected shoe donations from their congregation and from the Trenton community for this event. Students who need a new pair of tennis shoes to start the school year will find that help here.

Basic Haircuts Six hairstylists are volunteering their time to provide basic back to school haircuts at no charge at this location. For the health and protection of all students, a private head check will be conducted before a student receives a haircut.

Sign up for Food Assistance A representative from the University of Missouri Extension will be set up to provide some basic nutrition information and to help individuals sign up for food stamps.

Trenton Cinema 2:00-5:00 Jim and Maggie Bush at the Trenton Cinema want to invite students and families to come by for some free popcorn and pop, as well as, a sweet treat and some small prizes that afternoon. We thank them for their generous invitation during this event.

Bright Futures Trenton Community Back to School Event Thursday, August 9th

Purpose: This is a needs-based event to help students and families in meeting basic needs as they prepare to go back to school. Bright Futures Trenton is partnering with Grundy County Health Department, local churches, Hy-Vee, and many other businesses, community organizations, and agencies to coordinate donations and services to help school families in meeting basic needs.

Community engagement: Many area churches, community organizations, businesses, and individuals are sharing their time, treasure, and talent to meet the needs of our school families. We are striving to help the community be smarter with the resources we already have.

What people need to know: Needs based event. We ask parents/guardians to attend all events with their student. For the protection of all participants, a head check will be conducted before a student can receive a haircut. To receive a pass for the pool party that evening, students must complete the health screenings with GCHD at the First Christian Church.

Like and follow Bright Futures Trenton on Facebook Questions-Contact Terri Critten, Bright Futures Coordinator, at tcritten@trentonr9.k12.mo.us

Events Trenton High School 9:00-4:00 Trenton R-9 Online Registration Parents who do not have internet access may come to THS and use the district’s technology to complete online enrollment. This is the first time the registration process is available online.

Parents and Guardians will be able to conveniently complete necessary forms through the SIS Parent Portal in a short time at one location, rather than having to go through the process at each school building where they have children attending. This process is for current students only. New students to the district will be required to enroll in person at the building where the student will attend.

First Christian Church 4:00-7:00 Grundy County Health Department School Health Fair They will be completing health screenings for school in order to reduce the child’s time out of the classroom this fall. All Grundy county students in grades K-12 are welcome. Students who complete their screenings will receive essential school supplies to start the school year and a coupon for a free pool party later in the evening. There will be games and prizes for the students while they wait for their screenings as well as educational displays and community partners.

PDQ Supports Excellence in Education in the Green Hills!

Moberly Park 6:00-8:00 Hy-Vee Food Store of Trenton is providing a cookout at Moberly Park for families participating in the days’ events. Hot dogs and side dishes will be available after you finish your health screenings and the events at 1st Baptist.

Trenton Aquatic Center 7:00-9:00 The Grundy County Health Department is sponsoring a pool party for students who participate in the health screenings. The pool will only admit students and their families if they have the coupon from GCHD provided after the health screening has been completed.

Bright Futures Back to School Event team: Dan Wiebers, Chris Hoffman, Sarah Jackson, Lynn Griffin, Abby Oberman, Elizabeth Gibson, Tim Michaels, Terri Critten.

We have over 40 Bright Futures Volunteers helping that day, in addition to the volunteers recruited by GHCD, First Baptist, Trenton R-9, and the staff at Hy-Vee. Many additional volunteers have shopped for shoes, packed backpacks with supplies, sorted and laundered clothing, made signs, and helped in many other ways.

Election

eral Election for the Sixth District U.S. representative seat.

Terry Richard is the lone Democrat candidate for 12th District state senator and Dennis VanDyke is the lone candidate for Seventh District state representative.

Libertarian voters have one candidate for the three races in which they have candidates, including Japheth Campbell, U.S. Senate; Sean O’Toole, state auditor; and Dan Hogan, Sixth District U.S. representative.

Jacob Leutkeymeyer is the only candidate from the Constitution Party and he is seeking the state auditor’s job. Two candidates, Jo Crain and Jerome Bauer, are in a contest to be on the Green Party ticket in November as candidates for U.S. senator and Don Fitz is the only Green Party candidate for state auditor.

Missouri voters are also being asked to approve Proposition A, the so-called “right to work” measure, which was placed on the ballot through a petition referendum. Voters are being asked if they wish to adopt Senate Bill 19 (Right to Work) as passed by the General Assembly in 2017, which prohibits, as a condition to employment, the forced membership in a labor organization (union) or forced payments of dues. A “yes” vote upholds SB 19, meaning no one could be required to pay dues to a labor union or join a labor union as a condition of employment. A “no” vote is to overturn SB19.

The bill was passed in 2017 and signed by then-Gov. Eric Greitens, but has been on hold until voters determine the law’s outcome in the August election.

A sample election ballot will appear in today’s edition of the Republican-Times.

Something To Think About VINCE NEAL

DIRECTOR

EMBALMING AND PUBLIC HEALTH

In recent years, the opinion has been offered that embalming serves no public health purpose.

The contention is that once a person dies any disease they may have had is rendered harmless. Is this true?

On the contrary, evidence is abundant that dead bodies do harbor infectious organisms, which can spread to the living. The next question is simple enough: Does embalming remove the threat posed by these pathogens?

Laboratory studies have indicated that commercially available embalming chemicals are effective disinfectants and preservatives. It could, therefore, have been predicted that such chemicals – when

used according to present-day professional embalming techniques – would also be effective in killing and reducing microbial flora.

We know that many epidemics – both historical and modern – have been aggravated by the improper disposal of human remains. Proper disposition of a professionally embalmed body is the best guarantee against such threats to public health.
