USDA Issues Safety-Net Payments to Iowa Farmers in Response to 2015 Market Downturn by Rick Patrie News Editor HARDIN COUNTY – Farm Service Agency (FSA) recently announced that approximately 154,000 Iowa farms that enrolled in safety-net programs established by the 2014 Farm Bill will receive financial assistance for the 2015 crop year. The programs, known as Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC), are designed to protect against unexpected drops in crop prices or revenues due to market downturns. For growers enrolled here in Hardin County it can mean just about $60 an acre payments applied to just over three quarters of their farm’s base corn or bean acreage. Growers must have enrolled for five years in one of two programs: PLC,
which makes payments when the annual average of each commodity’s prices drop to a certain trigger level, or ARC, which makes payments when per-acre revenues (as a function of both price and yield) fall below another trigger. Payments per acre depend on how far below the trigger revenues. Payments have ranged from mid$40 to the higher $60s in some areas of Iowa. Again, the final payments are a function of the a farm’s base acreage for corn tracing back decades, or its base for beans dating back 14 years. The USDA uses 85 percent of that base acreage – and then multiplies times the payment amount. Here it Hardin County it came to $59.56 (continued on page 3)

Growing public health problem by Rick Patrie News Editor HARDIN COUNTY – Note the story on page 2, where Community Service head Lyn Adams went before the county board of supervisors recently and talked about bed bugs making their way into some homes in Hardin County. Then, in a statement released shortly after, Adams says that bed bugs have become a significant problem in Hardin County and throughout Iowa. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers them a “pest of significant public health importance that cause a variety of negative physical health, mental health, and economic consequences.” Many low income households lack the resources for treatment necessary to rid their home of bed bugs. As a result, Hardin County has implemented a policy to offer some financial assistance to low income households to rid their homes of bed bugs. Under the policy, households with gross income less than 150% of the current federal poverty guidelines are eligible. Households are eligible for a maximum of $600 from the fund and most will be required to sign a repayment agreement. The policy approved by the Board of Supervisors will allow up to $5,000 in county funds to be utilized. Funds will be allocated on a first come-first serve basis. Repayments received will be used to help sustain the fund for families that need assistance for the future. Persons wishing to apply or those with questions may contact Hardin County Community Services at (641) 939-8167.

William Hoffman On November 8th Hardin County voters have more than one tough decision to make while at the polling place. I believe that a vote for me, William Hoffman is the simplest. As a father of a 13 year old son and a fourth generation Hardin County resident I want to bring new insight, new ideas, and a sense of pride in ownership so he will want to remain in Hardin County and be a part of the most amazing community of hard working and compassionate Americans that I have ever know. Unfortunately my great grandparents, grandparents, and parents didn’t work their entire lives’ to let things slip away and I believe that without new blood, new ideas, and a modern philosophy on operating government as our most successful corporations operate we won’t rebound but I know I can lead Hardin County on to great things
for the future. I will represent and protect the platform that will allow farm children to be able to work on their family farms, not what my opponent’s party wants in terms of not allowing farm kids to be able to work on family farms. I will represent and protect the platform that wants to be stewards of the land, not rule that a puddle in a field is a navigable waterway like my opponent’s party. I represent and will protect the platform that won’t attempt to micromanage the grain dust from a combine, unlike my opponent’s party. While the office isn’t as partisan as some may think the fact that my opponent is a registered Democrat does concern me due to the platform of the Democratic party and the
Ronn Rickels At the local level there is just one county-wide race. Two candidates are vying for a seat on the county board of supervisors. Incumbent Ronn Rickels of Iowa Falls faces Bruce Hoffman of Whitten. Each has given us a short statment on their aspirations for the post.
As county supervisor, I’ve served at one time or another on 20 public/ county boards. Currently, I serve on 13 boards. Over my four-year term I’ve grown to understand the interrelations of various boards, and how to use what each board offers for the betterment of Hardin County. I take pride in supporting our county’s citizens. I’ve found avenues for state and federal money. This money is lost if not used. Hardin County purchased (with grants) a 34 mile “Trail Banked recreation trail that extends from south of Highway 20 to the center of Marshalltown. Resurfacing bridges and pouring concrete trail is scheduled for the spring of 2017. Our goal is to fully complete this trail with grant money. Other counties have achieved this goal, we can too. Counties with completed trails have
averaged a million plus dollars of economic revenue yearly. I directed grant money back to Hardin County that started a proactive program, which promotes mental health in our school systems. As we are measuring its success, I would like to see it spread to all county schools. We’ve started a new rock program for our Hardin County gravel roads. Before, we subcontracted trucks to haul rock to a fourth of our county each year. It took four years to cover the county. That program has been dropped. We now haul our own rock. Our gravel roads are improving and should keep improving over time. I’m on multiple boards for Hardin County Mental Health. Our state passed legislation to regionalize

Farm Program kicks in (continued from page 1) per acre for corn and $45.91 for beans. The ARC (county) option has been far and away the most chosen by producers everywhere. Nationwide, producers enrolled 96 percent of soybean base acres, 91 percent of corn base acres and 66 percent of wheat base acres in the ARC-County coverage option. The USDA says the likes of the $59 payment here represents a significant cushion for farmers dealing with low commodity prices into the third season. “These safety-net programs provide help when price and revenues fall below normal, unlike the previous direct payments program that provided funds even in good years,” said SED Whitaker. Unlike the old direct payment program, which issued payments during both weak and strong market conditions, the 2014 Farm Bill authorized the ARC-PLC safety net to trigger and provide financial assistance only when decreases in revenues or crop prices, respectively, occur. The ARC and PLC programs primarily allow producers to continue to produce
for the market by making payments on a percentage of historical base production, limiting the impact on production decisions. “These payments will help provide reassurance to Iowa farm families, who are standing strong against low commodity prices compounded by unfavorable growing conditions. For example, all counties in Iowa have experienced a 32% drop in price below the benchmark price established by the ARC program for corn and a 27% drop in price for soybeans.” “Payments by county can vary because average county yields will differ,” said SED Whitaker. Statewide, 147,133 farms participated in ARC-County and 6,592 farms participated in PLC. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced that beginning today, many of the 1.7 million farms that enrolled in either the Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) or Price Loss Coverage (PLC) programs would receive safety-net payments due to market downturns during the 2015 crop year. “This fall, USDA will be making more than $7 billion in payments under the ARC-County and PLC

programs to assist participating producers, which will account for over 10 percent of USDA’s projected 2016 net farm income. These payments will help provide reassurance to America’s farm families, who are standing strong against low commodity prices compounded by unfavorable growing conditions in many parts of the country,” said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. Producers enrolled 99 percent of long grain rice and peanut base acres and 94 percent of medium grain rice base acres in the PLC option. Overall, 76 percent of participating farm base acres are enrolled in ARC-County, 23 percent in PLC and one percent in ARCIndividual. For other program information including frequently asked questions, visit www.fsa. usda.gov/arc-plc. Payments are made to producers who enrolled base acres of barley, corn, grain sorghum, lentils, oats, peanuts, dry peas, soybeans, wheat and canola. The Budget Control Act of 2011, passed by Congress, requires USDA to reduce 2015 ARC and PLC payments by 6.8 percent.

45th Owasa School Reunion The 45th Owasa School Reunion was held on Sunday, Sept. 18, at the Jackson Township Hall in Owasa. Seventy-four people enjoyed reminiscing over a noon potluck. There were four states represented: California, Minnesota, Texas and Iowa. The highlight of the afternoon program was the ‘roll call’ of classes; this is where we find out who’s who and what year they graduated. The earliest graduating class represented was 1937 – that student was Mable Axtell Lee, who resides in Iowa Falls. Other years represented were: 1938, 1941, 1945, 1946, and 1951 through 1961. Some Owasa history was shared: In the year 2016, the town of Owasa celebrated its 132nd birthday. The first Owasa Schoolhouse was built in 1890, and then in 1917 a new one was built. A gym was added in 1951. The last graduating class was in 1961, but the school didn’t close until 1967. Owasa students
chose to go to Eldora, Iowa Falls or Hubbard Schools to graduate. Currently, Owasa has a Methodist church, a Farmer’s Elevator and, most recently, a restaurant, Three Days Grille & Saloon (great food). The next Owasa School Reunion will be September 16, 2018. We invite anyone who went to the Owasa School to join us – you did not have to graduate from Owasa. If you did not receive an invitation to this year’s reunion and you would like to receive one for the 2018 reunion, please contact: Cheryl (King) Pence, 515-491-7828, capence39@ msn.com or Julie (Baker) Stewart Ziesman, 515-689-6654, ziesman@ yahoo.com.

Flashback Friday
Taking a look back at local history from previous editions of the Eldora Newspapers. Compiled by Rob Maharry. Five years ago this week-2011 • BCLUW senior Levi Storjohann figured this was his year. And it was, as Storjohann captured the gold medal during the Class 1A portion of the Iowa High School State Cross Country Championships here Saturday. “My sophomore year, I was the first sophomore to finish, and my junior year, I was the first junior to finish. So I figured this might be my year, and it was,” said Storjohann. • It is over for the year. The construction work that has been a feature of the Eldora downtown and the county square will be taking a hiatus until spring. About three-quarters of the project has been completed, and a visual inspection shows as much. What remains is the completion of the new landscaping on the north side of the courthouse, planting some ornament trees to accent the larger shade trees introduced in the last few weeks, the construction of some added sidewalk elements and the introduction of that plaza walkway county map that will hereafter greet visitors to the courthouse north doors. 10 years ago this week-2006 • When word got out that Joe Rash and family of Union were being recognized under a unique Iowa program that honors the best in farm neighborliness, there was a spontaneous chorus of affirmations as people around Hardin County started finding out. Lloyd Bates of Union was behind it all. Bates spent a career as a veterinarian in the Union area and was a frequent caller and friend to the Rashes, and not too long ago he nominated the Union grandfather, Joe, his wife Pat, their son Jerry and his wife Carol and grandson John, all of whom are active in the farming operation east of the community— and Bates says that not to be forgotten, he more or less was nominating the whole family for years of contributions, not just to the beauty of the landscape, but to fellow farmers in Hardin County, and the lives of lots of their children as well. The Iowa Good Neighbor Award for October was presented to the family last Wednesday. • This is the story a lot of people around Hardin County say they have been waiting to read for much of the 2006 election campaign. And for a hometown newspaper, it’s a gift from above because, as it turns out, this local angle story has become a national story, too: Whether or not it all gets Kevin Wiskus a seat in the statehouse remains to be seen, but it’s certainly given a one-time Iowa Falls boy “his 15 minutes of fame. Wiskus is the now-famous fellow from Centerville who recently became such an overnight and oftreluctant sensation by quietly saying “enough is enough” and dropping his membership in his state party organization, dropping his claim to the party’s standard and then continuing his campaign for the Iowa Legislature as an independent—all after he
found out elements of the campaign at the state level had, without his knowledge, begun dispatching negative direct mail against his opponent, communications which Wiskus said were “way, way, way beyond plain old tasteless and crude.” 25 years ago this week- 1991 • Four candidates are seeking the two positions on the Eldora City Council in the regular municipal election on Tuesday, November 5. Two of the four are incumbents, and two are challengers. And each of the candidates has a different reason for desiring to be elected to the city posts. Wilbur Hubrecht and Tom Samp are the challengers in the November election, while Virginia Stiles and Kyle Thompson are listed as incumbents. • A quarterly review of the strategic plan for the Eldora Regional Medical Center was part of the planned agenda for a special meeting of the Eldora City Council at city hall. The review was conducted by administrator Frank Carr, who said that, overall, the efforts are “on target” for the 1991-92 strategic plan. Carr also reviewed the September financial statement, which shows the hospital had a net profit of $23,871 for the month. “It was an excellent month for us,” Carr said. 50 years ago this week- 1966 • Eldora gained its first unbeaten season and an undisputed title in the North Iowa Cedar League by soundly whipping Ackley-Geneva 38-6 here on Friday night. Coach Bob Thurness’ Tigers thus finished the season with a 7-0-1 record, the best in EHS history, surpassing the previous 8-1 records compiled by the 1916 and 1960 teams. The only blot on this year’s record was the 0-0 tie with Iowa Falls in the season’s opener. • Will Hardin County have 100 bushel corn this year? County Extension Director Jim Goode thinks this could be the year that county farmers will average 100 bushels of corn per acre—or nearly so. Farmers are generally reporting the best corn crop they have ever harvested. Several have told Goode that corn is making 25 to 50 cents more per acre. • The Hubbard Community School will hold an open house Tuesday, November 8, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. in observance of the completion of the new 52x40 two story addition to the school. Refreshments will be served and guided tours will be available for the new wing. No program has been planned. The building contains the language laboratory and social studies room on the top floor which connects to the present building through the study hall; and the vocal music room, superintendent’s office, secretary’s office and storage are on the ground floor, which is connected through the lunch room on the present building. A bond issue for $75,000 was voted by the public February 24, with 80 percent in favor. Bids were let May 1, and the finishing touches are now being put on the building.

Letters to the Editor Read before voting on judge retention
Help the United Fund
Trails group supports Rickels
To Concerned Citizens of Central Iowa, The U.S. Supreme Court made a ruling that said life sentences without parole for some juvenile cases, depending on the severity of the case, was unconstitutional. In 2013 the Iowa Supreme Court took this a step further and made a decision to make mandatory life sentences without parole illegal for ALL juveniles, regardless of the severity of the case. The current Iowa law states that all juveniles receiving a life sentence now have the possibility of parole. This means all juvenile cases have to be re-sentenced. In July the Rebecca Hauser family was put through yet another court hearing for Rebecca’s murder in 1994. Three of the four individuals responsible for Rebecca’s murder were re-sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole. The state’s district court judges have no choice but to re-sentence all juveniles with life sentences to now include the possibility of parole. A man from Des Moines also attended the re-sentencing hearing because, like the Hausers, he had a family member that was murdered by a juvenile. He too would be attending a future re-sentencing hearing and wanted to know what to expect. The Hauser family, along with hundreds of other Iowa families, will
To the Editor: Would you like to know about a donation you can make where 100 percent of your money goes to the cause instead of the people running it? What if it also focused on helping people right here where you live? Good news! We have such a thing. It’s called the United Fund of Eldora! How can that be? It’s because generous businesses and individuals donate their time, materials, and space to the cause. Let me thank all of them, as well as any I might fail to mention. Hardin County Savings Bank provides the secretary, Krista Weber, who works all year as the contact person and to keep the books, receive donations, and distribute the funds.

To the Editor: Over the past few years, we’ve had the pleasure of serving on the Hardin County Trails Commission with Supervisor Ronn Rickels. Ronn has been a phenomenal asset not only to our project but to many other initiatives in the county as he strives to make Hardin County a better place to live and raise a family. Ronn has great vision, is respon-
be repeatedly attending these parole hearings, giving victim impact statements and reliving the terrible events over and over again. I taught in the public school system for 33 years and I know of no kindergarten student that I ever met that would think murdering someone was the right thing to do. The individuals that were convicted of this horrific, senseless, brutal crime were 15 and 16 years old at the time they murdered Rebecca Hauser. They want us to believe they didn’t know at the ages of 15 and 16 that this was not the right thing to do! Are we seriously going to go along with this? The reason for this letter is to let you know that two of the three Iowa Supreme Court judges up for reelection this year voted in favor of this new law change, allowing the possibility of parole for all juveniles sentenced to a life sentence. Their names are Mark Cady and Brent Appel. If you disagree with this change in the law, please join me in voting no for these two judges. You wonder if their vote to change the law would have been the same if their family member or someone they knew would have been involved in a similar crime. These families that this law change affects have a life sentence with no possibility of parole! Barb Schwarck, Eldora

Supports Rickels To the Editor: It is said that all politics are local. Four years ago we elected a retired award winning teacher and coach of 30 years, Ronn Rickels, to be our representative on the Hardin County Board of Supervisors. Ronn grew up on a family farm in Eastern Iowa. He and his family have always been involved in public service. Ronn has done an excellent job bringing his existing knowledge and life experience into the job besides learning the many new areas his job covers, all while serving on 14 job related committees.
He works well with the other two supervisors, one a former county auditor from Eldora and the other a farmer from Hubbard. They all contribute their knowledge, find compromise and reach workable solutions. While they all represent the whole county, it is important to have them from different parts of the county to share their knowledge of the areas they are most familiar with. Ronn deserves our support and vote so he can continue the excellent job he has done. Kurt Kelsey Iowa Falls

Iowa furbearer season begins Nov. 5
Quakerdale Prep falls to MCC in cage opener MARSHALLTOWN- A season-opening 84-64 loss was suffered by the Quakerdale Prep basketball team to Marshalltown Community College here Tuesday. The visiting Eagles started strong and faded. Quakerdale trailed 34-33 at halftime after holding leads of 29-27 and 33-32 late in the first half. The Tigers then won the second 20-minute period, 50-31 to pull away. Mahrion Butler led the Eagles’ scoring column at 14 points to go with five rebounds and two assists and steals each. Tyrees Sidberry netted 11 points with nine for Antoine Divine, Tyrail Trussell and Chris Porter. Myles Thomas chipped in seven points, Chase White three and Alex Clark two. Thomas made two three-point goals and Butler one. “I think the positives for the night was that we held our own in the toughness category and ended up shooting more free throws than our opponent. Our shot selection and motion on offense really showed well,” said Quakerdale coach Dustin Johnston. Scoring leaders for the Tigers were Souf Mensah at 19 points with Aaron Hauser 11 and nine for Brandon Simmons and Reggie Gradwell, a former Quakerdale cager. “Our biggest concern with moving forward will be our ability to rebound the ball consistently,” added Johnston. Quakerdale’s shooting stats were 24-of-60 from the field, including 3-of11 on threes and 13-of-28 on free throws. Marshalltown made 32-of-73 field goals and 14-of-25 free throws. Quakerdale travels to Olney Community College in Illinois for games tonight (Friday) and Saturday, and then plays in Iowa Falls Tuesday (Nov. 8) against Ellsworth Community College at 7:30 p.m.

pitch count coming to Ia high shool baseball
ELDORA- The Iowa High School Athletic Association has announced a pitch count policy will go into effect for the 2017 prep baseball season. The policy reads that when a pitcher reaches 110 pitches, he may not pitch to another batter. He may only finish pitching to the current batter. An adult designee from both teams approved by the school will confirm the pitch count of each pitcher at the completion of each inning. If there is a discrepancy that cannot be worked out, the home scorebook/count will be considered the official count. If an individual were to pitch on consecutive days, the two or moreday total would determine how many days of rest would be required before the individual could return to pitch. The consecutive day total cannot exceed 110 pitches. Tenth-12th graders may throw 180 pitches in a week. Eighth-9th grades may throw
150 pitches in a week. A week is defined as Sunday-Saturday. The previous pitch ruling was nine innings in one day or a combination of two days, and 16 innings in a week. In addition, if an individual were to throw 25 or fewer pitches in game one of a doubleheader, he may return to pitch in game two, up to 110 pitches for the day. If an individual were to throw more than 25 pitches in game one of a doubleheader, he would be ineligible to pitch in game two. All varsity pitch counts are required to be entered into QuikStats within 24 hours of the completion of the game. All levels of baseball (freshman, JV, varsity, etc) are required to complete the IHSAA Pitch Count Chart and both school’s coaches are required to verify and sign said chart at the conclusion of the contest.
DES MOINES- Iowa fur harvesters will find good numbers of raccoons, muskrats, beaver, coyotes, bobcats, river otters and mink when the furbearer trapping and hunting season opens on Nov. 5. “Population wise, all species are doing pretty well except for gray fox,” said Vince Evelsizer, furbearer biologist for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. Trappers who like to pursue muskrats should find better numbers on area marshes this year. All indications show better muskrat numbers in many parts of the state for the second year in a row, which is great news, he said. “It’s still not what is used to be in some areas, but definitely an improvement. Muskrats are a breadand-butter species for Iowa trappers but the population has been on a downward trend for the past 25 years or so. So it’s good to see their numbers rebound some,” Evelsizer said. What hasn’t come back is the fur market outlook – fur prices remain low. The number of fur harvesters fluctuates with the market prices for the third year in a row, the fur market outlook is poor. “We gained about 2,000 fur harvesters per year from 2009 through 2013, and then lost about 2,000 fur harvesters per year from 2014 through 2015,” said Evelsizer. He expects the decrease in trappers to continue for the 2016-17 season. “This is a good year to spend time with youth or older adults trapping, coon hunting or predator hunting. It’s a great way to spend time together in the outdoors, regardless of the fur market,” he said. “On the positive side, we are still one of the top five states in the nation for the number of fur harvesters per capita.” Regulation Change Fur harvesters are no longer required to obtain a permit to hold furs for sell after the season closes on Jan. 31, 2017. Otter, Bobcat Reminder Fur harvesters are reminded that it is important that they turn in the lower jaw or skull of any otter and bobcat they harvest. “This enables us to extract a tooth for aging and monitor the age distribution of otters and bobcats. This information helps assess the feasibility of possible changes to the otter or bobcat harvest season,” said Evelsizer. A map of the counties open to bobcat harvest is on page 20 in the Iowa Hunting and Trapping Regulations book available at license vendors and on the Iowa DNR’s website at www.iowadnr.gov/huntingregs. Gray Fox Study Iowa is participating in an ongoing Midwest gray fox DNA tissue study by working with trappers to collect samples used for genetic information. “Iowa gray fox numbers have declined over the past 10 years. Southeast Iowa has the highest population but there are small pockets of gray fox throughout the state,” Evelsizer said. Trappers who catch a gray fox can contact Evelsizer at 641-357-3517 or their local DNR biologist or conservation officer.
