The new Reading Park project across from the Clarksville Public Library has been awarded a grant from the State of Iowa’s Resource Enhancement and Protection program, commonly referred to as REAP. Clarksville Visioning Committee has been working on developing the park for nearly a year. The city is currently wrapping up the first phase, which included installing new storm sewers, a new street and parking lot adjacent to where the park will be. The REAP grant is for $72,500. These funds will be combined with local donations and memori-

als to build a new bandstand gazebo, along with other amenities and finishing touches for the park. Volunteers from the Visioning Committee completed landscaping on the east side of the fire station for the new city parking lot last week. The goal is to have the park nearly completed by Pioneer Days next summer. Visioning committee members are excited that the grant will allow the project to become a reality. The new area will turn a former community eye sore into something everyone can be proud of. More pictures on page 2

Soybean yield turning out better than expected By Pat Racette Those farmers who withstood the over 20 inches of rain last spring to plant soybeans have likely been happy with what they’re seeing in the fields so far. Soybeans being harvested are turning out have a better yield than expected, according to Butler County Extension Coordinator Nancy Jensen, who said she’s been hearing outputs in the 40s and 50s of bushels per acre. Jensen credits the hot temperatures in both August and September to the better-than-expected harvest. Clarksville farmer Paul Miller had his best soybean harvest in 20 years in his 40-acre field just east of town. The longtime producer has sandier soil there, but still managed to average around 40 bushels per acre of soybeans when picking last Wednes-

day. Miller said it all balances out, as he was planning on harvesting beans in his family’s other fields later. Other farmers weren’t so lucky, having to accept a total loss of soybean crop after having to plant them as late as July. “Some had to cut their beans when they were green,” Miller said. However, producers can lean on crop insurance to help them a bit due to near impossible weather conditions where they were located. The focus soon turns towards corn harvest, which according to Miller, appears to be looking good from the outskirts. But the results for most fields are yet to be determined, as the wet months of April through June put corn crops two weeks behind the time of normal harvest.

By Pat Racette Teri Dickman was known as the Bushwackers lady in Garner. She owned and operated Bushwacker Salon and Spa for 12 years, before moving to her shop to Clarksville last May beside K & S Grocery at 404 N. Main St. “We had an inkling that we’d be moving over here,” she said. “So I did research on available buildings, and we had friends tell us that there was a salon here [K & S] at one time. So we came in here and talked to Karen [Miller].” Miller, owner of K & S, saw Bushwackers’ Facebook page and remodeled the old salon, adding a back room for tanning, waxing, pedicures, manicures, facials, ear candling and acrylic and gel nail polishing. The shop also offers haircuts, perms and coloring. “It’s getting busier here all the time,” she says. “Just getting the word out is the hardest thing, but the No. 1 way is word of mouth.” She originally branded her store Bushwackers after finding a salon in California with the same name. “I thought, you know, that’s it,” she said. “It [Bushwackers] fit my personality, because I like to have fun

Clarksville that they had to drive a ways to get,” Dickman said. “They can get everything they need right in their hometown, and it’s just getting the word out and utilizing that.” She moved into town when her father-in-law passed way. She and her husband came here to take care of his mom and brother.

Construction land Clarksville roadwork nears light at end of tunnel

By Pat Racette Off and on roadwork this summer and fall is finally nearing an end for Clarksville residents. During a time, County Road C33, Packard Avenue and Iowa Highway 188 all underwent construction. However, the 7-mile C33 stretch is complete, besides street markings. Highway 188 construction is estimated to continue for two to three weeks. Mathy Construction Company of Onalaska, Wis., laid the base coat last week, and will have to do another coat to finish the project. The company is also responsible for filling in railroad ties on both West Superior Street and West Slimmer Avenue. Heartland Asphalt, Inc. of Mason City will be resurfacing blocks on Fremont and East Weare streets this week, before blacktopping the West Greene Street/Reading Park Project.

We are proud to support our area farmers! Jerry Roling Motors Hwy. 218 South, Waverly

Grant for Reading Park

Kindergartners visit the Fire Station Continued from front The Clarksville Food Pantry would like to invite the community to join in the Chili Cook-Off by enjoying a bowl or two of chili, bars, and good fellowship. Those eating chili will be asked to vote for their favorite and a People’s Choice award will be given to the winner.

Consider the ant you lazybones; consider its ways, and be wise. Without having any chief or officer or ruler, it prepares its food in summer, and gathers its sustenance in harvest. How long will you lie there, oh lazybones? When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a thief and poverty like an armed warrior. Proverbs 6:6-11 There is a story that I heard out here in Vilmar some years ago as I prepared for the funeral of a beloved member. It harks back to a time when corn was harvested by hand by the whole family, for many weeks at a time. It was the end of a fall day of picking corn. The dusk was at hand and there was still animals to be fed and milking to be done. As the wagon, filled to the top with the golden ears of corn, passed through the gate, one ear bounced up and off and fell onto the grass alongside the lane. The daughter who was accompanying her father back to the farmstead watched as he stopped, got off his seat and went back to pick up that single ear of corn and place it carefully back on top of the load. It was a simple act but one she never forgot. The act of stopping, putting in the extra work of going back for one ear of corn was emblematic of an attitude of thankfulness for God’s gift of food. It signified the willingness to put out extra effort to dignify that gift. It showed a recognition that food is precious and people less fortunate have perished for the lack of it. God bless you, and protect our farmers at harvest. Pastor Mark Walker, St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church (Vilmar)

Editorial

The Clover Connection Improvements To State Government Iowa is considered the fifth best run state in the country, according to 24/7 Wall Street. Our strong agricultural economy, excellent credit rating and well-managed budget give Iowa its good financial health, standard of living and government services. This year, legislators continued our push for a leaner, more transparent government that is responsive to Iowans’ needs by: 1. Balancing the state budget without raising taxes. Iowa has a budget surplus of about $721 million. We also have $649 million in our reserve funds. That is the largest amount in state history and the eighth best in the country, according to a national report by the Tax Foundation. 2. Cutting taxes to create jobs and spur economic growth. The tax reforms we approved this year include reducing commercial property taxes for all Iowa businesses, however the reforms help small businesses the most. We also voted to put some of our budget surplus back into the pockets of Iowa taxpayer and help low-income Iowans work their way out of poverty by boosting the state Earned Income Tax Credit.

3. Standing up for citizens’ right to know. Iowans now have a free, efficient method to ensure government officials comply with Iowa’s open meetings and records laws. The newly formed Iowa Public Information Board helps citizens with questions and concerns about their rights to information. In addition, we are developing an online database that will allow Iowans to search the state’s budget expenditures and tax revenue to see how their tax dollars are spent. 4. Improving customer service and saving money through efficiencies. New initiatives include an online driver’s license renewal system and giving Iowans the option to show proof of insurance on their electronic driving record rather than carrying the documentation.

Linda Upmeyer Newsletter As the leaves turn brilliant colors, the evenings turn cool, and Friday night football is in full swing, I am reminded that the 2014 legislative session is getting closer. It is a good time to reflect on past sessions and consider the work upcoming. During my opening day speech at the start of the 2013 legislative session, I asked the Iowa Legislature to set an example of the best in public service. I wanted us to demonstrate that Washington D.C.’s divisive politics have no place in Iowa. Since that time, I’m afraid things in D.C. have only gotten worse. As the dysfunction at the federal level reaches an all-time high, it is no surprise that people are continually losing faith in our government. They are losing faith in the ability of good men and women to tackle issues head on. They are losing faith that members of opposite parties can come together to work in a truly bipartisan fashion to find solutions to the challenges facing Americans. They are losing faith that good policy can trump political rhetoric. As I said at the beginning of the year, if you feel anything like me, you are probably more than ready to tell the federal government to move out of the way and let the states handle it! Today, that rings truer than ever. By working together toward common goals this past session and focusing on doing what is right for the people we represent, the Iowa Legislature proved that great things can still be accomplished. In one session, with a Republican Majority in the House and a Democratic Majority in the Senate, we

were able to do things that many believed could never happen. We were able to pass an historic property tax relief package, comprehensive education reform, and important health care reform- all while adhering to our sound budgeting principles. I want you to know that Iowans can be proud of the progress we made during the 2013 session, and confident that the state is moving forward in a strong position for the future. You see, in Iowa, state legislators stay connected with our constituents. We live and work in the communities we represent. We understand the value and importance of working together and maintaining an open dialogue. Even if we greatly differ on certain issues, we do not refuse to sit down and find a way to get our work done. This is how compromises are reached and problems are solved. At end of day, we find solutions in Iowa. We realize we have a job to do, and do not stop until that job is complete. That is your expectation of us, and it needs to be our expectation for ourselves. Iowans can be proud that we do not have the same problems that plague Washington, D.C. I am hopeful the federal government will take a page from our playbook and choose to come back together, communicate, and not stop working until solutions have been reached. As always, please feel free to contact me anytime with the issues you care about. You can reach me at linda.upmeyer@legis.iowa.gov or 515281-4618.

Road Terror, Motorcycles, SUVs and the Second Amendment By Glenn Mollette Everyone who has watched the news has seen the SUV being attacked by a gang of motorcyclists in Manhattan. We watched a husband, wife and baby surrounded by terror whose lives were seemingly going to end right before our eyes. Most of us have imagined ourselves in a similar scenario and played out in our minds how we might react. Such a scenario happened to my wife several years ago as she was traveling on Interstate 75 south of Cincinnati. A group of motorcyclists surrounded her car. Several got in front of her with several others to the side and others behind her car. As the cyclists in front of her drove slower and slower it was obvious to her they were trying to force her to pull off to the side of the road. Gripped with fear she motioned that she was moving forward and floored the accelerator. Fortunately for the cyclists in front of her they had a moment of rational thinking and got out of her way as she sped forward at 85 to 90 mph to get away from them. The highway is no place for games, rage or acts of violence. Cyclists, truckers and automobile drivers should be courteous and share the road. We are all paying taxes on America's highways and all should be respectful of each other. In the days ahead we will hear from the driver and wife of the SUV. I would have called 911. Even today, not everyone has a cell phone. In such cases we all need one to call for help. More and more phones today are capable of taking pictures and videotaping. When you are afraid for your life you do not al-

ways have time to be a photographer but criminals and bullies do not want to be photographed. Without the videotape airing across the nation who knows how this story might have been spun. Finally, what if the family could have pulled a handgun out of the glove box? NYC law makes that very difficult in comparison to most of our country. However, residents of NYC should make every effort to achieve a legal permit and push every day for second amendment rights. What man or woman would not have begun firing the moment the window of that SUV was crashed? I would have fired away to protect my family if I had a gun. Obviously, the cyclists could have been armed as well and thus several people could have ended up dead. This brings us back to the extreme necessity that we must all utilize respect and common sense as we travel our highways. There is zero need for violence. We need to be grateful for freedom and the privilege to drive and chill out. Give people some room. Don't ride people's bumpers. Don't cut people off. Do not use hand gestures with people as this only escalates driving tension. Do not harass people. Do not stop your car to get into a yelling match with someone. There have been moments that all of us have felt like other motorists on the highway were jerks. Pursuing an altercation leads to nowhere. Try to keep your cool and drive responsibly. And, in case such a scenario happens to you that happened to the Manhattan family remember your Second Amendment rights.

A Win – Win Situation! It’s not often I attend an extension meeting these days where men are purposely excluded. I mean, really, aren’t they the ones we women look to for all the answers? Just today a gentleman came in looking for the ag agent and he didn’t mean me! The world of extension is changing and these days women are taking on more and more of the roles typically thought of as “male only�. Being raised on a dairy farm, it didn’t matter to the cows if the person milking them was male or female, they just needed to be milked. We kids all learned at a young age how to work in our dairy operation. I attended a Women Caring for the Land Conservation Meeting in Waverly last week. There were 18 women present including all the organizers, presenters and participants. I was late (as usual!) and missed some of the introductions but it was easy to see there were women of all ages in attendance from their 20s to their 80s. I always think it is refreshing to see people continuing to learn and search for new ways to do things. Even into their 80s! Several were there to get information which they could take home and “try� to convince their husbands to do something differently. (Wonder how that concept worked out for them?) One of the presenters was from Practical Farmers of Iowa. I am so not a scientific person (sorry, Grandma!), but I really enjoyed her presentation on cover crops suitable for our area as well as when and how to plant them. Having held a cover crops meeting earlier this year, I realize this is a very timely issue and

one many people are looking to for their fields. Due to all the other things I had going that day (I think it was 4 other commitments), I skipped lunch and the farm tour to work and was ready to talk about Extension when the women returned. I spent time discussing some of the programs Extension has to offer and told them we had a tree pruning workshop coming up on October 19th. Our workshop will be held in Parkersburg, and since it has been 5 years since the tornado, many trees planted then are either 1) needing pruning or 2) needing replacing due to being planted incorrectly. I explained that trees are often planted too deeply, covering the flare and basically sentencing the tree to a premature death. Boy, did that generate a lot of questions! Seems the elderly lady next to me wanted her newly planted trees to die, so could she go put dirt on them and kill them? She hadn’t picked out the trees to be planted and wasn’t at all happy with the ones that the nursery chose! I certainly am not in the business of telling people how to kill their trees! I also shared a way to keep seeds for next year, by putting those little packets that come in purses and shoes in a paper towel and adding it to the envelope with the seeds. This will eliminate moisture and protect the seeds. All in all it was a good day. I met many new and interesting people, added a few contacts to my rapidly growing list and got to talk about Extension. That’s what I can a winwin situation!

Yard and Garden: Colorful Fall Foliage AMES, Iowa — There are many things such as temperature, moisture, rain, wind and the availability of sunlight that impact the quality of fall color – but having the right trees, shrubs, vines and perennials will add to colors in the home landscape each fall. Horticulturists with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach point out types of trees and plants that have colorful fall foliage. To have additional questions answered, contact the Hortline at hortline@iastate.edu or call 515-294-3108. Which shade trees have colorful fall foliage? Shade trees that possess excellent fall foliage include Freeman maple (Acer x freemanii), Norway maple (Acer platanoides), red maple (Acer rubrum), sugar maple (Acer saccharum), white oak (Quercus alba), red oak (Quercus rubra) and black gum (Nyssa sylvatica). Freeman maples are hybrids of red and silver maples. Their leaves vary from orange to red in fall. Widely sold Freeman maples include CelebrationÂŽ, Autumn BlazeÂŽ and Sienna GlenÂŽ. Easy Street™, ‘Emerald Queen’ and ParkwayÂŽ are Norway maple cultivars with yellow fall foliage. The red maple cultivars Red SunsetÂŽ and Redpointe™ have dark red foliage in fall. Sugar maples are native to eastern Iowa. Their fall foliage varies from yellow to orange to reddish orange. ‘Commemoration,’ ‘Legacy’ and Fall Fiesta™ are excellent sugar maple cultivars. In fall, the foliage of white oaks is often reddish brown, while red oaks have wine red foliage. Black gums are not widely grown in Iowa. They are somewhat difficult to transplant and prefer moist, well-drained, acidic soils (pH 6.0 to 6.5). However, the black gum possesses outstanding fall foliage. Its foliage is often bright red in fall. Other possibilities include ‘Moraine’ sweet gum (Liquidambar styraciflua ‘Moraine’) with foliage that varies from yellow to red to purple, yellowwood (Cladrastis kentukea) with yellow fall foliage and ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) cultivars ‘Autumn Gold’ and ‘The President’ with golden yellow fall color. Which shrubs have colorful foliage in fall? Several deciduous shrubs have colorful fall foliage. The winged euonymus or burning bush (Euonymus alatus) has red foliage in fall. The fall foliage of fothergilla (Fothergilla spp.) varies from yellow to orange to

Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey has issued the following statement on harvest progress and the Iowa weekly weather summary prepared by the State Climatologist for Iowa Harry Hillaker follows Northey’s statement. “Due to the Federal government shutdown we do not have a crop progress report again this week, but farmers continue to make significant progress on harvest statewide. The precipitation we have received has slowed progress in some areas. Overall, harvest remains behind average and yields are extremely variable,� Northey said.

by Dave Clark

110 Years Ago August, 1903 A daughter arrived at the H. A. Molsberry home on the 18th; Henry is stepping higher than a barefoot boy on sand burrs. It is the fifth living generation. Cute description but not so much if you’ve been there and done that, among the sand burrs, it was usually too late by the time you high-stepped!! AD: Latest thing in shoes, enamel with monkey skin tops at Price’s. 100 Years Ago September, 1913 The prairie chicken hunting season opened last Monday, also the open season for duck shooting. No person shall kill more than twenty-five of the birds referred to in one day. J. L. Scripture, J. A. Wygle, Frank Landes and H. A. Jacobs went to Lake Cornelia, Sunday, to be in readiness for a big hunt Monday morning. Mr. Jacobs returned Monday evening and stated that during the morning hunt ninety-five ducks were bagged. Altogether the boys got 114 ducks and 6 rails. The entire party returned Tuesday. Laws were a little more lenient in those days, as I have said before this may be part of the reason I’ve never seen a “prairie chicken.� AD: Free air for your tires at Cutler and Smith Garage. While workmen were removing the flag staff from the top of the public school building Friday, an almost unbelievable circumstance happened. The staff was a two-inch gas pipe forty feet in length. In some manner, while removing the shaft from its bearing, sixteen feet become uncoupled and plunged thru the roof the roof and plastered ceiling. It was fourteen feet to the floor below which gave the pipe great momentum and on it plunged through three floors and into the basement where it demolished a castaway organ. School was in session at the time of the mishap, but lucky as it was, no person was in range. In one room it passed within inches of a student’s seat and in another room barely missed a bust statuary of Wm. Shakespeare. That must have been a scary few seconds for all involved. In old school pictures the flag pole is visible, rising from the roof in the northeast corner of school. This was two years before the west addition of gym etc. was built. 80 Years Ago August, 1933 C. S. Vance lost one of his valuable Jersey cows this week. Death was caused by a rattle snake bite a few days ago. In all my digging through the old STARS this was the first time I’ve seen any mention of something or someone being bitten by a rattle snake in this area. 60 Years Ago Summer 1953 Workmen have been busy the past few weeks at the school house making the gym into a modern kitchen where the hot lunches will be served. This will make it much easier and

convenient for both the women who prepare the lunch and for the scholars. Up to this time the hot lunch meals were prepared and served on the third floor, in the Home-Economics room in the old school house, which was where I enjoyed my dinners. I have often thought about how difficult it must have been not only for the cooks, who were not young women, as well as those who delivered supplies to climb those stairs so we could have all those good meals. Of course the new gym had been built, now known as the “west gym�, and the old gym was no longer needed as such. For the first time in seventy-five years, Iowans will be permitted to hunt deer. The setting of a five-day deer season has been announced, which will extend from December 10 through December 14 inclusive. Licenses will be issued only to Iowa residents and the fee is $15. Farmers, and their families and tenants living on the farm are not required to possess deer licenses for hunting on their own ground. Fortyfive counties will be open to deer hunting; Butler County will not be one of those. And so it all began 60 years ago. The Clarksville Canning Co. will complete its pack of yellow corn this week and will start canning white corn. The quality of corn is excellent according to F. L. Asher, Superintendent. This would have been the last full year I worked at the factory. AD: Shell Theatre, Shell Rock. Saturday and Sunday we present for the first time MAGNAVISION WIDE SCREEN. Donald O’Connor and Esther Merman in “Call Me Madam� (Technicolor) lovely music, beautiful color, wide vision. No special glasses required. From Gomer’s Now and Then column: “The president really has bad tough luck. On his vacation trip to Colorado he winds up with a sore elbow that bothers his casting on fishing trips. That was probably the result of swinging a golf club too often while getting in shape to go on the fishing trip.� A little sensible sarcasm, much too tame for today’s political world! The Clarksville Roller Drome will open under new management next Wednesday night, September 23rd. Lloyd Niehaus and Clayton Bliss are the new operators of the business. A free skate will be the feature of the opening and the public is invited to guests of the new management from 8:00 to 10:30. The rink will operate every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. Other nights are available for private parties. Just another little part of our past town history. An interesting item for the Farmer’s Almanac: An average harvest from a single apple tree is 840 pounds. That’s enough for more than 400 pies. With today’s abundance of “Dwarf fruit trees that seems like a very large number!

As part of National Manufacturing Month, Butler County Development Corporation and the Butler County board of supervisors want to express their appreciation to the manufacturing industries and their employees in the county. The board of supervisors recently signed a proclamation setting the week of October 21st as Manufacturing Industry Appreciation Week. "Manufacturing employment in Butler County has grown significantly in the past 20 years," stated Jeff Kolb, executive director for the Butler County Development Corporation. Workforce data indicates that well over one thousand jobs in Butler County fall into the manufacturing sector and associated supply chain. "Our rural setting and strong agricultural base tends to overshadow this growing part of the economy here in our county. " Kolb said. Mark Reiher, chairman of the board of supervisors stated, “We have committed resources to create job opportunities

for the citizens of Butler County. That in turn supports our local businesses, schools, housing, churches and "small town way of life." Both Kolb and Reiher stressed that county leadership and the economic development organization are working hand in hand to help retain and grow our existing companies, while at the same time being aggressive to bring in new employers and capital investment. Kolb added, "Many people do not realize we have companies here that make a wide range of products that are shipped all over the world. From grain handling and a variety of other ag equipment, to windows and commercial doors, stainless steel tanks to custom shoe inserts, and even high end audio equipment and guitars. These are just a small sample of what is made right here in Butler County, Iowa, USA.�

C & Me: Buddies By Pat Racette I’m starting a new column called C and Me about my son, Colton, and me, the editor. Here’s general information about Colton and me, Pat. He’s 2 ½ years old, and I’m 33. He is a morning guy, so I’m a morning guy. His favorite TV show was Wild Kratts, but now I’m not so sure. Probably Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, he loves Mickey Mouse. My favorite TV show is Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, because of the catchy ditties and because I watch more cartoons than anything else. Moving on, Colton has been waking up at 4 a.m. lately. We have no idea why, however, he usually hits the sheets before 7 p.m. So, maybe that’s why he’s waking up so early. But it also could be because of bad dreams he has about lion. He’s watched the Wizard of Oz countless times, and so we’re trying to connect to dots – I mean, my wife is a psychologist. Though he’s a cowardly lion, I guess he could be scary to a little kid. Anyway, just the other night I had put him to bed and was just putting down the recliner on the sofa and stretching out my long legs when I hear, “Boom, boom, boom,â€? knocking on the TV room door. I look over at the video monitor, and sure enough, C is not there. Somehow the kid that was just in dreamland is awake. “Hey C,â€? I say, and pick him up. “You alright?â€? “No, daddy – lion,â€? he says. “Lion,â€? I say, “Where is lion?â€? Colton then points in his room, and then at the blinds. I open up the blinds, and no lion is in the backyard. “There’s no lion out there C,â€? I say. I tuck him back in, stroke his head a few times, and try to get back to my sanctuary to eat, lay out my legs and turn on a TV show that peeks my in-

Iowa is attracting national attention this week as dignitaries from across the globe gather in Des Moines for the World Food Prize. The prize, which was founded by Iowa native and Nobel Peace Prize winner Norman Borlaug, is considered the top award in agriculture. Like Borlaug, I support the science of genetic modification and believe it’s essential in defeating world hunger. This year’s award winners are known for founding, developing and applying modern agricultural biotechnology to improve production agriculture and food production.

terest just enough to think minimally after another busy day. Then the next day comes, and I awake hearing two little feet running across the wooden floor at 4 a.m., before bouncing into the room like Tigger. I just act like it is all a dream, as he climbs over mom and in between us. Then I have to acknowledge the little, cutie guy, but I’m still groggy and out of it. So he chooses to sink in the middle like a stone, only the stone kicks and turns over about every 30 seconds. I count backwards in my head from 99 trying to get back to sleep. “99-98-97-96-95-94,â€? I say to myself. “Stop kicking Colton,â€? I hear in the background of my counting. “Colton enough. It’s too early to be awake. You need to go back to sleep.â€? “93-92-91-90‌â€? “Colton J., please, you need to lay still so we can go back to sleep. It’s 4 in the morning,â€? Mom says. By this time, I can see the writing on the wall – Daddy needs to do something. So I suggest Mom goes out to the couch and sleeps, allowing Colton to shake a leg on Mom’s side of the bed. The plan actually works, but takes considerable discipline. As I lay on my side with an eye on him, he puts his head on me in a playful sort of way. But it is no time to play. “Daddy, Daddy, I want to get up,â€? he says. “I want to get up. Get up Daddy.â€? Instead of answering, I turn over like a big loaf in a bundle of covers and ignore the little him. After a little more movement and bumps, I hear his breathing get louder‌and – duh da da duh – he’s asleep, I’m going to sleep and Mom’s probably asleep. Good bye all, I’ll see you late in 45 minutes world. Thanks for the miracle.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation about genetic modification. First and foremost it’s important to remember no commercially grown crops in the U.S. were created by nature alone. Humans over many years have altered all of our crops, often for taste or yield or disease resistance. The advancement of biotechnology gives scientists the means to accomplish this more quickly and pick the specific traits that are needed. Agriculture is vital to Iowa’s economy – for our rural and suburban growth. We can be proud of our strong agricultural heritage that has led the world to our doorstep. So many around the world want what Iowans have – safe and reliable foods that lead to economic stability.

Indians beat Warriors 42-35 Friday Night at Clarksville By Ryan Harvey Clarksville fullback Matt Negen made his final night on Indian Field a memorable one. The 5-foot-10, 196-pound senior plowed through the Rockford defense to accumulate 295 all-purpose yards, scored four touchdowns, converted a two-point conversion, and collected eight tackles in the Indians’ 42-35 win over the Warriors Friday evening in Clarksville. “Negen ran extremely well,� Coach Chris Arians said. The senior rambled for 176 yards on 29 carries and caught a 46-yard strike from Trevor Fenneman. Fenneman had a solid night under center, running the option offense, he collected 71 yards on 20 tries and converted two scores. He also hit Zack Sommerfelt in stride on a fourth and 20 for a 27-yard touchdown score. In all, the squad completed 3-of-9 through the air for 38 yards. Sommerfelt added 42 yards on 17 carries and two receptions for 30 yards and the score. Defensively Dylan Ciavarelli collected 10 stops and intercepted a pass from his linebacker position while Sommerfelt picked off a pair of passes. Fenneman added the fourth interception of the evening, nabbing the pass after a couple of tips into the air before gaining control. The Indians took control of the contest early. After a Warrior threeand-out, the Indians began a quick march down the field for their first score of the game. Fenneman started the effort with three consecutive runs, going for three, five and four yards before firing an incompletion. Sommerfelt followed with a pair of runs, going for four and two yards, respectively, before Fenneman scooted for a 16yard gain on fourth-and-four to get the Indians to the nine-yard line. Fenneman added a four-yard gain before Negen finished it up with a four-yard gain to the one, and bowled into the end zone with eight minutes, one second remaining in the opening quarter. Sommerfelt’s run failed, giving the Indians a 6-0 advantage. The Warriors managed a first down on their second drive before turning the ball over on downs. Sommerfelt managed a six-yard gain with the first carry and Negen powered ahead for three more. Fenneman’s two-yard dive gave the Indians a fresh set of downs. After Sommerfelt lost his footing in the backfield while trying to turn upfield for a loss of two, Negen

ripped off a 29-yard run to flip the field position battle once again. Sommerfelt scampered for nine more, and grabbed another first down with a three-yard gain before Negen moved the ball to the twoyard line with a four-yard pickup. Fenneman collected his first score on the next play on a two-yard run with 3:00 left in the quarter. Negen’s try for two was good, stretching the lead to 14-0. Rockford looked to be mounting a drive as senior quarterback Ryan Turner completed 3-of-5 for 25 yards before throwing an interception to Sommerfelt late in the opening quarter. Fenneman sandwiched runs of four and 12 yards around a three yard pass to Sommerfelt to finish off the quarter. As the second quarter began, Sommerfelt and Negen alternated runs. Sommerfelt picked up a total of six yards on three carries while Negen added four. After Fenneman was sacked, the Indians were forced to punt for a touchback. Rockford began to march once again, completing three consecutive passes for 34 yards. After two incompletions, Ciavarelli intercepted a pass at the 21-yard line. After both teams turned the ball over and traded punts, the Indians managed to stretch their lead to 200. Negen took the opening carry for three yards to the Rockford 14, before Fenneman was sacked for a loss of 13, backing the team up to the 27yard line. Fenneman’s throw was incomplete on third down, putting the Indians in a fourth and 20 situation from the 27. The Indians converted the fourth down and struck pay dirt when Sommerfelt came out of the backfield and got behind the Warrior defensive back where Fenneman hit him in stride with a pass on the left sideline for the score. The conversion try failed and the Indians held a comfortable margin with 0:58.5 left in the opening half. The Indians managed a quick strike just before the half, using a six play, 54-yard drive for the score when Turner hit Brandon Emerson on a bootleg pass on the right sideline. Emerson ran into the end zone untouched with 0:10 remaining on the clock. The try for two fell incomplete and the Indians held a 20-6 half-time margin. Negen started the second half off with a bang. After the Warriors attempted a squib kick, the senior picked up the ball and was stopped just shy of the goal line. However, a

holding penalty at the Rockford 10 backed the Indians up to the 20-yard line. The Indians turned the ball over on downs as an offensive pass interference penalty backed the team up even further. The Warriors trimmed the gap to eight with 8:17 remaining on a 12yard run by Turner. The Indians responded with an eight-play drive once again as Negen have five carries with runs of 14, 7, and 9 before scoring on a two yard run with 4:49 left. Fenneman hit Mason Lovrien for the two-point try to stretch the lead back to 16. After a Fenneman interception, his second of the game, Clarksville marched down the field once again with a seven-play drive before turning the ball over on downs. The Indians collected their fourth interception of the game on a Sommerfelt pick-off of Turner. The Indians took the ball in on a four play drive as Negen blew through the defense from six yards out with 11:20 to go in the fourth quarter. Negen’s pass attempt on the try for two was intercepted, stretching the lead to 22. But the Warriors began their march back. Rockford’s Ryan Turner willed the team back into the game on the next drive, connecting on strikes of 11, 13 and 6, while running for nine, eight, four, two and scoring on a one-yard dive with 9:03 left. His pass fell incomplete, cutting the gap to 34-18. Their defense tightened up as well, forcing the Indians to turn the ball over on downs. Rockford hit three consecutive passes before a fumble was scooped up by Lovrien and returned to the 15-yard line. Lovrien was called for an offensive spearing penalty as he fell to the ground, backing the Indians up to the 30. Negen took the ball to the house on a run between the center and right guard to put the Indians up by 24 with 5:35 left. But the Warriors were back in the end zone just 90 seconds later when Turner hit Logan Johnson on a 36yard pass. The try for two was good and the lead was trimmed to 42-26. After the Indians tried to churn away at the clock, Clarksville fumbled the ball away on the sixth play of the next drive. The Warriors struck back once again with a quick seven play drive, finding the end zone with 50.5 seconds remaining when Turner hit Emerson on a 35-yard touchdown run. Turner hit Schriever on the try for two, cutting the gap to 42-34.

The Indians had one final possession. After a loss of four, Negen picked up a first down on runs of seven and eight with 3.5 seconds remaining. The Indians called a timeout to set up a play to throw a Hail Mary into the end zone. The pass was intercepted by Emerson and returned to the 37 as time expired. “The big thing at the end is that we were trying to get to 13 points for the tie breaker,� Arians said. “We are in a battle with four or five teams for a playoff spot, so we had to try for it.� Arians highlighted the efforts of his seniors this season. “A lot of credit has to go to the seniors going back to last year,� he said. “With the coaching change, we tried to keep things consistent, but they’ve done really well to adjust. Our success this year is a credit to them.� Arians also heavily praised Mason Lovrien for his efforts on the night. “Mason has played everything but quarterback,� the coach said. “He ran nice and hard.� Lovrien finished with 14 yards on four carries and recovered the fumble. Lovrien also had six tackles on defense from his outside linebacker position. Arians also credited the comeback by Rockford. “Hats off to Coach Johnson,� the Indians coach said. “Last year they weren’t very good, but this year they are playing everyone tough.� The Indians move on to play at Riceville this Friday night. Arians said both teams are similar in style. Riceville is 4-3 on the year and 2-3 in Class 8 District 3 action. “They play a very similar style to us,� he said. “With the familiarity on offense, in order for us to have a chance at the playoffs we have to go and finish with a win.� Riceville fell to Don Bosco of Gilbertville, 50-8, on Friday evening.

On Saturday evening around 6 p.m., a parent of an 8-year-old girl called to report a possible abduction attempt on her daughter. The report was that the girl was near City Hall in New Hartford around 2 p.m. when she was approached by a black van with lots of windows. The driver of the van was described as an “Older man with a gray beard and mustache wearing a farmer’s cap and smoking.� It was reported that the man had told the girl that there was a family emergency, and that she needed to get into the van so he could take her to her mother.

During National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we stand together in our support for a cure and our support for the women who are faced with the disease. By encouraging breast cancer research and raising awareness of the importance of early detection, we can all help save lives. It is estimated that nearly 200,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and that more than 40,000 of these women will die. Breast cancer is a threat to women of all ages, races and walks of life. Even men are at risk for breast cancer with approximately 1,700 men diagnosed each year. These numbers remind us why it is so important to know the signs symptoms and risk factors of breast cancer. Early detection of breast cancer is the best weapon agains the disease, which means breast self-exams should be preformed regularly, with clinical breast exams every one to three years. By the age of 40, women should begin getting mammograms every one to two years. In addition, healthy lifestyle habits like physical activity, not smoking, minimizing alcohol intake and consuming plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables can hlep women reduce their risk factors.
