Exchange students enjoying time at Ridge View High School Ridge View High School in Holstein has two foreign exchange students this school year, Nelson Augusto DeSouza from Brazil and Markus Muller from Germany. Both students are staying with Liz and Allen Schmidt of Holstein. Muller is from Oldenburn, Germany where his father, Dr. Thorsten Muller, is a manager of the unemployment agency for their region and his mother, Claudia Muller, works for the local bank. Muller has three younger siblings, Anna, 14; Recca, 10 and Simon, seven. He says the hardest transition has been the longer school days and he misses German bread but he loves the farm life here in Iowa, especially the tacos made by his Iowa mom Liz. Muller notes his school day in Germany is much different than here at Ridge View. He rides one and a half miles on his bike to get to school by 8 a.m. Class times last about 45 minutes, with two 20-minute breaks during the day. School finishes around 1:10 p.m.,
when he then makes the trek back home to begin his homework. He says, “Homework can last anywhere from 10 minutes to eight hours.” DeSouza comes to Holstein from Sao Paulo, Brazil, where father Nelson DeSouza is a judge and mother Larissa DeSouza is a lawyer. He has two brothers, twins Pedro and Mateus who are seven. So far, his favorite thing has been going to a Musketeers hockey game in Sioux City with the Schmidt family. “They are awesome,” says DeSouza, of his host family. He also enjoys Casey’s pizza but misses pastel, a fried bread with cheese and meats, served back home. He also finds the school day much different at Ridge View than back home. Back in Sao Paulo, he starts the school day around 7:30 a.m. and leaves at 1 p.m., just in time to have lunch at home. When asked how difficult the transition has been, DeSouza says, “I really like everything, it didn’t take long to get used to the U.S.”

Ida County food bank receives largest donation to date While farmers were harvesting their crop, Mortensen Construction wind farm employees harvested many food products during a food drive competition between company departments. They wanted to give back to the community they serve. And, two trucks delivered more than 15,000 food items to the Community Basket pantry site on Oct. 31 in Ida Grove. It took many
hands to unload all of the goods. The Community Basket is in its fifth year of operation. The site pantry depends on donated food from businesses, churches, social groups and individuals. The Community Basket is run with an all volunteer staff who give their time and labor to help local Ida County families with food needs in seven communities: Arthur, Battle Creek, Galva, Holstein, Ida Grove, Kiron and Odebolt.
The next mobile food pantry outreach will be at the Battle Creek Fire Station on Thursday, Nov. 17, from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. The site pantry, located behind the Horn Memorial Medical Arts building, is open the first, second and fourth Thursday of each month from 1 to 4 p.m. Just this year, Community Basket has filled more than 1,100 baskets of food to unduplicated families in Ida County.

Looking Back Forty years ago Holstein city officials say they recognize the city has a problem with its water softening system and have set out to explore possible solutions to the problem. The problem is one inherent to the softening system the city uses, a high salt content in the softened water. The salt content has been a constant complaint by many people in Holstein since the system was installed in 1967. The Ida County Courthouse bond issue was defeated by a margin of 2,580 to 1,902 during the recent election. That vote total was just about the reverse of the 60 percent needed for approval. Ida County’s board of supervisors will have two new members with the election of Cliff Friedrichsen and Wayne Swanger. Thirty years ago Ida County witnessed its first measurable snowfall of the season on Nov. 10. The county received about two inches of snow, causing slippery streets and causing several accidents. Delane Galvin, a senior at Galva-
Holstein High School, was chosen to the first team all-conference for his performance at guard. Galvin was also team captain of the Pirate football team. Also named to the all-conference team were junior Brian Breyfogle at center and senior Mike Schmidt who was named honorable mention. Twenty years ago A total of 70.41 percent or 3,774, of Ida County’s 5,360 registered voters cast ballots in Tuesday’s general election. Numbers show the turnout was down from the 1992 general election when nearly 82 percent of the county’s voters marched to the polls. Dave Jensen of Ida Grove was elected the new Ida County Sheriff over his challengers. Bob Paulsrud of Danbury came out on top in the District two supervisor’s race., while Joe Cronin was reelected to the district one supervisor post. Maxine Rogers of Ida Grove was reelected Ida County auditor. The Holstein City Council met with Comserv to discuss local cable service in Holstein. General manager Steve Reimers
discussed adding new channels and upgrades to the system. The council approved the first reading, suspended additional readings and approved the passage of the cable TV regulatory ordinance and the franchise ordinance. Ten years ago The Holstein City Council approved entering a loan agreement to purchase land for a housing development Monday. Following a public hearing, the council approved a resolution taking additional action to enter into a general obligation property acquisition loan agreement not to exceed $400,000 for the purpose of paying the cost of acquiring land for use in the development of a residential sub-division. Both G-H football and volleyball teams were knocked out of the running to state action this week. The Manning Bulldogs defeated the Pirates in football action 28-7 in first round class A playoff action. And WLVA toppled the Lady Pirates 25-19,25-21 and 25-18, ending the season for the girls.

Public Notice
Reflections on old-fashioned country school at 1884 Grant No. 5 schoolhouse The Ida County Historical Society sponsored the 35th old-fashioned country school days for fourth grade students Sept. 1-30 at Moorehead Park near Ida Grove. A total of 302 students and their teachers attended the school. Denison had seven classes and Schleswig had third and fourth grades attend from 9-11:30 a.m. Odebolt-Arthur (one class), Schaller-Crestland (one class), Galva-Holstein (two classes) and Battle Creek-Ida Grove (three classes) attended from 9 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Teaching were: Barb Bloom of Wall Lake, Gloria Rohlfsen of Early, Wanita Wiese of Kingsley, Nancy Ploeger and Sandy Getzmeier of Schaller, Darlene Still of Galva, Deb Parker, Donna Bremer, Rochelle Luscombe and Connie Anfinson of Holstein and Susan Miller, Bev Yeager and Kay Bryan of Ida Grove. The history hike leaders were Dale Wellendorf and Steve Wilkins of Ida Grove. For these fourth graders, the school days recreated the school days of their grandparents, great- grandparents and great-great-grandparents. In 1884, country schools were built two miles apart and all students walked to school, rode their ponies or were brought to school in wagons or buggies. Those who attended school in the 1950s may have walked, rode a bike, rode ponies or may have ridden in a wagon pulled by two ponies. The teacher rang the old-fashioned bell of 1884. Students entered the cloakroom where the coats were hung and homemade lunches in lunch pails were put on the shelves. As they came into the oneroom school, they saw the teacher’s desk on a platform. The school desks are on wooden runners, and
the wood-burning stove reminds the visitors of long-ago heating of the schoolroom. The teacher had many jobs. He or she was the only teacher for grades kindergarten (if they had kindergarten) through eighth grade. He or she was also the janitor, nurse, PE, art and music teacher. As there was no electricity in 1884, windows were used for light, or a lantern or candles. The one-room school did not have running water. Students may have walked a mile to bring water back to the school in a pail. As the school is like a museum, there is an old tin cup hanging by its handle near the water crock and tin pails for water with an enameled dipper. The roller towel hanging on the back of the schoolhouse door is used for drying the students’ hands after washing their hands. As there are no bathrooms, outhouses were used. In 1892, two outhouses were mandatory after the governor signed it into law. No longer did the girls have to use one bush and the boys another. Catalogues or wrappers from peaches or other fruits were used instead of cobs or leaves, now that they had outhouses. A patriotism lesson starts the day. This is a revised lesson by Rohlfsen, who took the idea from former teacher Conley Wolterman. A mini parade is held and a flag is folded in honor of our great country. Everyone recites the Pledge of Allegiance. Next, there is a health check. In music, the teacher and students will sing “Good Morning to You,” “America,” “Yankee Doodle” and listen to the Victrola and the record player. The McGuffey readers of 1879 are opened for reading of interesting stories. Some students sat on the long recitation bench to read
the story of “The Wolf.” Ciphering (arithmetic or math) is done on small slates with slate pencils or chalk. At recess, children use the outhouses, take turns on the old-fashioned teeter-totter and play “Drop the Handkerchief.” Orthography (spelling bee) is the one class the students enjoy, with winners declared to receive certificates. The Palmer Method of Penmanship is practiced with steel-point pens dipped in ink. Geography might have been difficult to spell for the students, but easier when the teacher gave a hint or gimmick to think of “George Evans old grandmother rode a pig home yesterday.” The student would use the first letter of each word and achieve the spelling of the word, geography. Before lunch, a chart is used to show how soap was made. During lunch, the teacher talks about the pictures in the room, the regulator clock, pencil boxes, old lunch pails, high-top button shoes and rules teachers had to follow in the 1800s and 1900s. After lunch, the history hike leader tells the students a little about Ida County history in Moorehead Park, and the ways when Indians lived there in the summer time. All leave the room to walk along the “old stagecoach trail” to the stable barn and the former Stagecoach Inn where two stagecoaches once stopped every noon. Sometimes, they walk the hill to the old cemetery. After returning to the school, the students talked about the sights of the hike or the school, or a book was read. Students received their attendance certificates, and the school buses took the students back to their modern school of today. Comments from the thank-yous
Senator Ernst to host traveling office hours in Ida, Sac counties U.S. Senator Joni Ernst’s regional directors will hold traveling office hours in November and December across all 99 counties in Iowa. Representatives from Sen. Ernst’s office will be available in counties throughout the state to assist Iowans with problems or questions about
eligibility involving issues like Social Security, veterans’ benefits, military affairs, passports, immigration issues and other federal programs. Sen. Ernst will not be at the traveling office hours. If you are unable to attend one of the open office dates and are
seeking assistance, visit www. ernst.senate.gov to contact one of the offices or to submit a casework request. Representatives will be in Sac City at the public library from 3 to 4 p.m. on Nov. 17, and in Ida Grove, Friday, Nov. 18, from 1 to 2 p.m. at the Ida Grove Library.
received from the students were: “ I would love to go again. I loved the stuff you taught us. I was so curious about the graves. I loved the spelling bee. I loved writing on the chalkboard. I liked doing the ink pen. I loved washing our hands and the old fashioned soap was amazing. I had a fabulous day. Thanks for helping me understand country school. I loved the history hike and ciphering. “Also, thank you for taking the time to teach us. I would like to go back. I had an awesome time at country school. I wish I could go to country school every day. I liked penmanship and orthography. It was fun and cool. Did they have science indoor back in the days? My favorite was touring the Moorehead house, because I got to see a hole where children hid. “Things that are different are the quill pens and relying on windows for light. They had no running water. We do not have health checks. It was different because slates were used and outhouses. Thank goodness we don’t use outhouses. Things that are different are the boys got to use pocketknives to sharpen their pencils. Things that are different were no computers or electronics. Things that are like ours are the Pledge of Allegiance and schoolwork. It was the same because we had teachers and they taught us lessons. Things that were alike both schools had consequences for behavior. We both have recess.” Visitors are always welcome to attend country school while open. The Historical Society is always looking for more teachers to help. If you should know of any retired teachers, contact Deb Parker at 712-210-1809.

The Alternative by Fritz Groskruger Oh, deer. Many years ago, our garden was being whipped by the wind, and so we decided to plant a row of bushes to protect it. Later, we built a small feedlot south of there. A row of trees next to the bushes made sense to keep snow out of the feedlot and the cattle comfortable. We have been buying seedlings from the soil office fund-raiser for as long as I can remember. Those people do a great job promoting soil conservation. It must be frustrating for them. The tradition of farmer as master over the land usually trumps the idea of working with nature, instead of destroying it for short-term gain. It is too bad that the people at the soil office are having their work destroyed by a related government agency. Yesterday, I discovered several trees had been shredded by deer. We had watered, weeded and mulched those trees for years, and they had finally taken off. Now, they are torn to shreds. I’ve come up with a few simple measures that could not only save lives and money, but also aid the hungry. Many taxpayer dollars could be saved if the DNR (Department of
Natural Resources) were restricted from jurisdiction over private property. When deer are on our property, they should be subject to our rule, not the rule of the state. Did you know it is illegal to sell harvested deer meat? Restaurants in the United States that serve venison import it from New Zealand. Dumb. Then, there are all the hungry people who get food stamps to buy groceries. I remember back in my days in the mountains of western Montana, going to apply for food stamps. Even before the Spotted Owl scam, jobs were pretty scarce at times in timber country. I looked at all that paper work and walked out. I lived with a couple guys who could shoot straight and I could help carry, so we survived on a diet that lacked the diversity of a grocery store. It is incredible to me that an animal that costs $4 billion and 200 lives a year in vehicle crashes is managed to provide sport for a tiny minority. That we need a license from the state to shoot a deer should be shocking to people in a free country. We’ve spent $4 trillion on a war on terror that hasn’t impacted as many Americans as the deer. In fact, much of that $4 trillion acted as a recruitment tool or incite-
ment, not as a deterrent. Without the incentive of our air bases in Saudi Arabia, 9/11 very well could have never happened. And, our reaction to it was the most costly part. I’m not trying to discount the threat of jihad, I’m only offering perspective on another problem caused by excessive government power. I couldn’t find a solid number on the cost of deer damage to crops and residential plantings, but even without those added, one motorcyclist hitting a deer on the interstate should be enough that our government should not only stay completely out of the deer management business, but should encourage any hungry person to seek one for their freezer at any time. It would be fine with me if the DNR stuck to enforcing trespass laws. That would take care of all the environmental issues they are presently responsible for. Individual people should be accountable, not an easily manipulated bureaucracy. Any comments on this column are more than welcome through a letter to the editor or directly to me at 4selfgovernment@gmail. com. There is also plenty I’d like to share at www.alternativebyfritz.com.

Obituaries
To keep our readers better informed, funeral information will be posted to our website (www.holsteinadvance.com) within hours of receiving it at our office. Anthony “Tony” P. Hahn Oct. 1, 1933 - Oct. 27, 2016 FORT BENTON, MONT. – Services for Anthony P. Hahn, 83, of Fort Benton, Mont., were Nov. 1, 2016, at Community Bible Church in Fort Benton, Mont. Benton Funeral Home in Fort Benton, Mont., was in charge of arrangements. He died Oct. 27 at Peace Hospice in Great Falls, Mont., after a lengthy illness. Tony was born Oct. 1, 1933, in Springfield, Minn., and was the oldest of seven children born to Hubert and Rosemary (Stiehm) Hahn. He attended school at Springfield, Minn. He began life on his own at 13, when he left home to work various jobs before joining the service. He served with the military police in the U.S. Army from May, 1953, until May, 1955. Tony and his brother, Richard, then traveled through the Dakotas down to New Mexico, working odd jobs, from building dams to being ranch hands. In 1960, Tony married the love of his life, Elaine Kaus. They made their home in Iowa and Minnesota for a short time. Following the birth of two daughters, a hunting trip west, a family vacation and a job, the family packed up and moved to Missoula, Mont., in 1967. After his retirement, Tony and Elaine enjoyed 20 years in Arizona, where they continued their adventures in the desert and to various national parks. Missing Montana, they relocated to Fort Benton, where they were residing at the time of Tony’s
Frank Daniel Stewart Jr. Nov. 21, 1950 – Oct. 22, 2016
death. They enjoyed 56 years together. Tony enjoyed the out-of-doors. Family adventures began in 1970 on a month-long trip to Alaska in a fourdoor Rambler station wagon, a tent, a Coleman cooler and camp stove. His passions were hunting, fishing and motorcycling. He enjoyed tying flies, reloading bullets for hunting, wood working and leather craft. If he wasn’t outdoors, he could be found “tinkering” in his well-organized shop. Tony never met a stranger, had a trickster sense of humor, loved to laugh and tell stories, some of them being retold several times. He proudly served as a reserve deputy for the Chouteau County Sheriff’s Department for several years. He also served on the Fort Benton Search and Rescue. Above all, he was extremely proud of his family. Tony is survived by his wife, Elaine of Fort Benton, Mont.; and two daughters: Denise (Kim) Conover of Holstein and Connie Bauman of Lolo, Mont. Also surviving are his grandchildren: Eric and Kyle Conover, and Kyla, and Shelby Bauman; two greatgrandchildren, Addie and Bradley Conover; a brother, Richard Hahn; a sister, Clara Friese; a brother-in-law, Robert Kaus; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and four sisters. Memorials can be made to Peace Hospice in Great Falls, Mont.; or Community Bible Church or Dedman Foundation, both located in Fort Benton, Mont. Tony’s online web page at www.bentonfh.com is available for condolences.
BLOOMINGTON, IND. – Services for Frank Daniel Stewart Jr., 65, of Bloomington, Ind., will be at 1 p.m., Sat., Nov. 26, 2016, at St. Thomas Lutheran Church in Bloomington, Ind. Visitation will be at 12 noon. Cremation will be handled by Southern Indiana Cremation Society. Frank died peacefully at home in his favorite chair Oct. 22, 2016. He was born Nov. 21, 1950, in Ida Grove to Frank and Deloris (Rehse) Stewart. He was baptized and confirmed at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Ida Grove. He graduated from Ida Grove High School and went to Wartburg College in Waverly, where he earned degrees in business and business administration. Frank began his career in tire sales at Firestone in Waterloo in 1973. On June 7, 1975, he married Kristine Kay (Pohlmann) Stewart at St. Andrews Lutheran Church in Glenwood, Ill. They remained in Waverly until 1977, when they moved to Bloomington, Ind. Frank worked there in wholesale tire sales for BEN Tire Dist., and then opened a retail shop named Tieman and Stewart Tires, where he worked until his retirement in 2011. Frank will be remembered for his love of basketball, both as a player at Ida Grove High School and Wartburg College, and as a fan of Bobby Knight’s program at Indiana University.
He was honored to be inducted into the Hall of Fame at Wartburg in 2005 and to become a member of a group of players honored as legends in 2008. He enjoyed spending time at the lake with family and friends and was always willing to play a game of cards. It was his sense of humor and personality that will leave the most significant impression on his family, friends and anyone lucky enough to make his acquaintance. Frank’s love of a good joke and his humorous personality will be greatly missed by all. He is survived by his wife of 41 years, Kristine Kay (Pohlmann) Stewart; and three children: James Douglas, Sarah Elizabeth and Alicia Marie (fiancé Aaron Glatt). Also surviving are his two granddaughters, Alexis Faye Nicole Stewart and Taylor Renee Flick; his mother, Deloris Ann Stewart of Ida Grove; two sisters: Susan Carol Boland (Brian) and Diane Lynn Schaul (Duane); and his father-in-law, Kenneth F. Pohlmann. Additional survivors include a brother-in-law, Luther Paul Pohlmann (Gisele); three sisters-in-Iaw: Ruth Ann Carlson (Steve), Andrea Sue Kulik (Ken) and Vicki Pohlmann; many cherished aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews; and friends. Preceding him in death were his father, Frank Daniel Stewart Sr.; his maternal grandparents, Walter and Evelyn Rehse; his paternal grandparents, Roy and Katherine Stewart; his mother-in-law, Katharine M. Pohlmann; and a brother-in-law, Karl Kenneth Pohlmann.

The couple was blessed with four children: Marian, C.J., Tamara and Lisa. After raising her family in Cherokee, she lived in California and the Iowa Great Lakes region, residing in Ida Grove the last three years.

There is a Cole Museum there, but the auction will be inside of a large Morton building in the same area. We will be selling an excellent 160 acres on Tuesday, Nov. 29 for the Jeffrey D. Kolb Estate and Betty J. Kolb. This farm is located three miles south of the junction of US
Hwy. 20 & 59 SE of Holstein on 59 to 190th St. and ½ mile east. Auction will be held at the Lohff Schumann Memorial Community Center. Politics are still ongoing and will be until the election is over, which was Tuesday. We do hope all took advantage of their American right, and privilege, to get out and vote. That’s all for this week. More next. Jim McGuire

For the 21st consecutive year, Cherokee Regional Medical Center Hospice will once again have lighted Christmas trees in Cherokee, Marcus, Aurelia and Holstein during the holiday season. These trees are a special way of remembering your friends and loved ones. You may help light the trees through a tax-deductible donation of any size. The money that is raised through this holiday tradition is used to help CRMC Hospice continue to serve and provide end-of-life and bereavement care in the area. Each of the trees will glow throughout December as a remembrance of the special people in our lives who have died. There will be a tree lighting and
memorial service held at Cherokee Regional Medical Center in Cherokee on Tuesday, Nov. 29 at 6:30 p.m. in the Hospice Garden (just east of the hospital). The evening will include the lighting of the tree, music, readings and a message of hope to carry us through the holiday season. The public is invited. The program’s highlight is the reading of the names, beginning with the names of deceased Hospice patients served since last year’s ceremony. In addition the community is offered the opportunity to honor loved ones by making a donation of any size to the Cherokee Regional Medical Center Hospice program. The service provides a special time of
healing for those in attendance by being able to see that others have walked a similar path. This is also a way for the Hospice team to reconnect with the families of those served over the years. A reception in the CRMC first floor conference room will follow the service providing a special time of fellowship and remembering. Donation forms are available online at www.cherokeermc.org or can be picked up at the hospital and several other business locations around the area. You may also call CRMC Hospice at 2256459 for more information. As a nonprofit provider of hospice services, CRMC Hospice appreciates your support.

Check soil temperatures before applying ammonia As air temperatures continue to fluctuate this fall, so do soil temperatures. This means it may still be too early to apply anhydrous ammonia (NH3) to cropland without risking nitrogen losses through groundwater leaching. Anhydrous ammonia applied before soil temperatures, at a four-inch depth, are 50 degrees Fahrenheit and trending lower will quickly convert to nitrate. While ammonium will mostly stay attached to the soil, nitrate will flow with water. “If we get more rain than the soil can absorb this fall or next spring, the nitrate is at risk to leach into groundwater, tile water and streams,” says Eric Hurley, nutrient management specialist with USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Des Moines. Since most of the nitrogen in liquid swine manure is in the ammonium form, it should also be applied when the soil tem-
perature is cold and the soil microorganisms, which convert ammonium to nitrate are relatively inactive, says Hurley. Nitrogen losses can also impact crop development, says Barb Stewart, state agronomist for NRCS in Iowa. “We encourage farmers to wait until spring to apply fertilizers,” she said. “This not only prevents nitrogen losses throughout the fall and winter, but spring application ensures the nitrogen is available when the crop needs it the most.” As of Nov. 2, soil temperatures were slightly above 50 degrees in the northern third of the state, but were still in the mid to upper 50s in soils throughout the rest of Iowa. Farmers and fertilizer dealers are encouraged to check Iowa State University Extension’s Iowa Soil Temperature Map at http://extension.agron.iastate. edu/NPKnowledge/ for trending soil temperatures throughout the state.
