Proudly Serving Wabash County Since 1977

Vol. 36, No. 34

by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com

In a modern, technology-driven society, it’s easy to view technology as a force pulling us away from our past, away from a traditional way of life. Food comes from the grocery instead of the garden. Horses are pets more than transportation. Payphones are all but obsolete. Even movie rental is becoming a thing of the past. In one corner of Wabash County, however, technology is connecting people to principles of the past as it propels them into the future. Perhaps the most unusual part is that this story about technology connecting us with history starts with a beautiful, yellow sunflower. If you drove on State Road 13 south of Somerset this fall, you may have noticed fields of sunflowers to the west. The sunflowers were grown by Darin Hadley. Hadley grew up around farming. His grandfather was a farmer in Allen County, where his father still tills the soil. Though Hadley works primarily as an agriculture banker for PNC, he continues the farming tradition in Wabash County, growing soybeans and wheat while raising pigs and cattle. This year, Hadley began growing something new; he planted 18 acres of sunflowers. Sunflowers are useful for many things – birdseed, seasonal decorations, and a crunchy salad topping – but none of these uses inspired Hadley to grow the giant flowers. Where most people would scan the horizon and see a field full of flowers, Hadley sees a field full of fuel; more specifically, he sees a field containing the biodiesel that will power his entire farming operation for the next year. “Even back to farming with horses, you grew your energy with the hay you fed your horses,” said John Boyer, Hadley’s partner and fuel processor. “We’re growing our fuel.” Boyer is a fifth generation farmer. He raises pigs, chickens, and cattle just west of Converse where he lives. Boyer didn’t get into biodiesel production by looking for a way to lower fuel expenses, but by trying to find a way to get rid of a waste product. “I spent six years in the dairy business producing specialty milk that was high in omega3s.” said Boyer. To create the specialty product, Boyer fed his cattle flax meal, one of the few foods with a high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to support healthy brain function. Flax meal, however, can be pretty expensive, especially when feeding large animals like cows.

“We found out that we could grow canola, and canola has the same omega-3 content as flax,” said Boyer. Most people know canola as oil used to deep fry foods, but it starts as a flower with a seedpod on top. After growing the canola, they needed to process it into a suitable feed for the cows, and that meant pressing the oil out of the seeds. “Then, we’ve got all this oil,” said Boyer. “I thought ‘I need to learn how to make biodiesel.’” That’s exactly what he did. If you’ve heard about people using waste cooking oil from restaurants to make biodiesel, you’ve heard about the process Boyer uses. Soon after the biodiesel side project became a functional source of fuel for the farm, Boyer began growing sunflowers in Wabash County. “That’s really where I started with sunflowers, was Wabash County,” said Boyer. These aren’t food-grade sunflowers, the seeds of which we put on a salad or spit at a baseball game. Boyer grows black oil sunflowers. These have the highest oil content and are the same kind found in birdseed. In a field of sunflowers, the heads all point the same way, trying to collect as much sun as possible. Early in development when the stems are still soft, the flower heads actually turn throughout the day, following the sun. Like corn, farmers let the sunflowers dry in the field before harvesting. They are harvested with a combine fitted with a corn head, but the head has cutters in it instead of rollers. A single flower head can yield up to a pound of seeds. Boyer is able to extract 37 percent of the seeds’ weight in fuel. “Ethanol has been fantastic for the farming community,” said Boyer, “but this takes less energy to turn [sunflowers and canola] into biodiesel than it takes to turn corn into ethanol.” Today, he gets about half his fuel from canola and the other half from sunflowers. He also makes a small amount of biodiesel from soybeans. The biodiesel can be used in any diesel engine without modifications. Sunflowers and canola can yield as much as 200 gallons of fuel per acre, far more than the 60 gallons per acre that soybeans offer. When you walk into Boyer’s processing barn, it looks like a cross between a classic grain operation and a large-scale chemistry lab. After an elevator lifts the seeds from a wagon into his grandfather’s old shaker (which removes any unwanted debris), the (continued on page 5)

Soon, the sunflowers in the background will be harvested, pressed, and processed into fuel which will power the planters, sprayers, and combines used on next year’s crop.

Bechtol Grocery Company donates Cancer Day proceeds Bechtol Grocery Company donated proceeds from the recent Cancer Day Sale of $2,743.77, which includes the

five percent of sales and advertising cost. This donation goes to the Wabash County Chapter of the American

Cancer Society. Mike Bechtol commented, “Sales over the past years lessen as we move more toward the first of

October because much of the government support arrives around the fifth of the month.” Re g ardless, Bechtol Grocery is

still happy with the great community turnout. Bechtol Grocery thanks all the celebrity baggers, whose help is greatly appreciated

and needed. Bechtols would also like to thank ‘The Paper’ for subsidizing the cost of the ad. They appreciate all the people who make

up the local board of the American Cancer Society in Wabash County and know they will use the proceeds wisely.

Master Trooper Detective recognized for 25 years of service

Recently, a reunion held at the Indiana State Police Youth Education and Historical Center, in Indianapolis, recognized the 36 graduates of the Indiana State Police 46th Recruit Academy. The class was acknowledged for achieving 25 years of service to the Department. Indiana

State Police Superintendent Douglas G. Carter presented each class member a certificate and longevity medal to honor the achievement. Indiana State Police Master Trooper Detective Tony Frawley is a member of the 46th recruit class, which graduat-

ed from the Indiana State Police Recruit Academy on Nov. 13, 1988. Frawley started his career as a trooper assigned to the Indiana State Police Peru District. He worked road patrol duties primarily in Tipton and Howard Counties. In 2000, Frawley was reassigned to the Criminal

Investigation Division as a detective working from the Indiana State Police Peru Post. Frawley left that post briefly to serve as a member of former Indiana Governor Mitch Danielâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s protection detail. He eventually returned to full time responsibilities as a detective working in the Indiana State Police Peru District. Frawley holds an associateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in criminal justice from

Indiana University Kokomo. He is a grad-

uate of Tipton High School and currently

resides County.

Sunflowers: fuel for the future... continued from front page seeds make their way into clear plastic tubes. These tubes feed the seeds into presses. Oil drips from the bottom of the presses as it spits thin cylindrical feed pellets out the front. The crushed meal closely resembles a warm crayon with the paper peeled off as it’s ejected from the press. The oil drips into a trough just beneath the press, while the feed pellets fall onto an elevator, which lifts them into a second wagon. Boyer has the system set up for 24 hour pressing. With four presses running, he can press up to 200 gallons of oil each day. “The press is the heart of the whole thing,” said Boyer. “The rest is just barnyard engineering. A lot of this is made out of junk.” The process itself, however, doesn’t create any “junk.” Nothing goes to waste. High in protein, the crayon-like pellets, sometimes mixed with corn, are fed to the farm’s animals. Canola feed goes to pigs, which have less discerning tastes. As for the sunflower feed, it’s fed mostly to cattle and chickens. “Cattle have sensitive taste buds,” said Boyer. “Sometimes you have to put molasses in feed to get them to eat, but sunflowers have a natural sweetness and a good aroma,” which Boyer says is perfect for cattle. As for the oil, it is filtered down to one micron in particle size, three times smaller than is required for modern diesel engines. The filtered oil then goes through a process called transesterification, which separates the biodiesel from the glycerin. Glycerin,

the sticky part of the oil that won’t go through the fuel filter, is used in manure pits to feed the anaerobic bacteria, helping to break down animal waste. “We’re cracking molecules,” said Boyer “My high school chemistry teacher came by and informed me that he taught me this in high school if I had just paid attention,” he joked. The “laboratory” in the back of Boyer’s barn is impressive. In fact, two weeks before last year’s gubernatorial election, Governor Mike Pence came to Boyer’s farm and gave a speech in the back of the tool shed. This relatively small operation produced 10,000 gallons of biodiesel last year. Next year, he expects to surpass 40,000 gallons. Even more impressive, however, is the return that farmers are getting from this process. Both Boyer and Hadley have 100 percent of their feed and fuel needs met through this process. Boyer has enough excess feed to sell to other farmers, and enough fuel to power all of his farming equipment, as well as the diesel pickup and Jeep Liberty he owns. “I’m off the fuel grid,” said Boyer. “you’re saving money more than making money. You’re replacing fuel and feed needs.” “There’s not a week that goes by where somebody doesn’t ask me about sunflowers and growing fuel,” said Hadley. Right now, Hadley and Boyer work with a couple other farmers in a “sort of coop,” according to Boyer. They’re not selling fuel out the door, but supplying their own fuel needs. In addition to farming

PRESSED INTO CYLINDRICAL STRANDS, the high-protein animal feed fills a wagon at John Boyer’s farm. The sunflower and canola crops not only power Boyer’s tractors, trucks, and Jeep Liberty through biodiesel, but feed his animals as well. The sunflower meal has a natural sweetness that even cattle, with their “sensitive taste buds,” enjoy. (photo by Eric Stearley) and making fuel, Boyer is an oil press dealer and helps other farmers set up their own processing plants. “If a guy wants to make all the fuel for his farm, it takes

seven percent of their land to grow the fuel,” said Boyer. “Grandpa always said it took 10 percent of his land to feed his horses.” Even though seven percent isn’t a lot of (continued on page 44)

WORDS OF WISDOM: During WWII, U.S. airplanes were armed with belts of bullets, which they would shoot during dogfights and on strafing runs. These belts were folded into the wing compartments that fed their machine guns. These belts measure 27 feet and contained hundreds of rounds of bullets. Often times, the pilots would return from their missions having expended all of their bullets on various targets. They would say, “I gave them the whole nine yards,” meaning they used up all of their ammunition. SEND YOUR NEWS AND PICTURES to etheleib@gmail.com or 2258 E 1050 S LaFontaine, IN, 46940 by Thursday.

GEL MEMORY FOAM

THANKSGIVING IN 1948: One of the things people around Urbana remember about Thanksgiving in the 1940’s was that Mildred Eads raised and butchered turkeys for many of the meals served for the Thanksgiving holiday. She also made and sold noodles made from turkey eggs. This is a picture of Mildred’s turkeys being watched over by Ron Eads (on top of the turkey pen), and Peggy (Eads) Dilling and Tom Eads standing under the tree. (Picture provided)

On Monday, Dec. 9 the North Manchester Historical Society will present a program of Southern Gospel music by Bound 4 Glory. The Historical Society has arranged the program to thank the community for its support, and especially to thank Timbercrest R e t i r e m e n t Community for hosting them each month. Many North Manchester residents will recognize Bound 4 Glory for their performances the past five years and the annual Camp Mack festival. For the December Historical Society program, they will include Christmas music, songs they only get to perform during the holiday season. Bound 4 Glory is a men’s Southern Gospel quartet blending tight harmonies with a country flavor. The members include Jerry Brennaman, Ray Imhoff, Randee Robinson, and Rich Flickinger of the Agape Church of the Brethren in Fort Wayne. Fourteen years ago, Ray fulfilled a longtime desire to create a quartet. They started practicing together, and now have shared their music with many area organizations, churches and retirement communities in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Iowa. They recorded a CD “I Believe” which is available from the Agape COB.

by Ashley Flynn ashley@thepaperofwabash.com During the commissioners meeting Nov. 25, Terry Burnworth, P y r a m i d Architecture/Enginee ring President, presented his company’s study of the feasibility of the former county jail, located next to the current county jail. The jail was built in 1880, and was designed by the same architect that designed the county court house. A new jail was built in 1979. The old jail went through some different uses including the old offices of the county prosecutors, but has since been vacant for years. Burnworth presented the commissioners with a review of the building’s interior, exterior, electrical condition, ADA compliance, possible uses and recommendations. According to him, the outside of the building is at 50 percent useable, the inside is 30 percent, the electrical system

needs completely redone, a fire alarm system needs installed, and the building is not ADA compliant. He went over some possible ideas for the building, which includes a jail museum, county office space, resale renovated or as is, or additional parking. Renovations would cost over $500,000. After looking over the economic benefits and historical value of the property, Burnworth concluded that it would be in the county’s best interest to demolish the building. Barry Eppley, a Wabash County Commissioner, said Burnworth just confirmed what the commissioners had already suspected. “We were leaning towards demolition, and this just confirmed it,” Eppley said. Burnworth will report back to the commissioners sometime next month with demolition cost estimates. Also at the meeting, the commissioners

agreed to renew a fiveyear contract with the Town of North Manchester, who subcontracts Life Med, the company that supplies the ambulance service in North Manchester. The commissioners also decided to move forward with securing a spot for updating the county’s ortho-photography, which is aerial imaging of the county used for GIS. The project will cost $41 per square mile, or $17,000 for the whole county. Ericka Cain, Transportation Manager for Living Well in Wabash County COA, Inc, presented the commissioners with two new bus contracts that are expected to be in use in a year. Living Well previously asked for the funds to come from the 5311 Capital Grant with a 20 percent county match. They have recently been contacted by INDOT who informed Living Well that 100 percent of the funds will come from federal money.

Madrigal Dinner Theater to take place at Honeywell Center Wabash Area Community Theater and the Honeywell Center will present two opportunities to participate in the Madrigal Dinner in early December. Guests can choose to attend on Friday, Dec. 6 or Saturday, Dec. 7 with both events beginning at 6:30 p.m. To assure reserved seating, guests are encouraged to make reservations by Tuesday, Dec. 3. Guests will begin congregating in the main lobby where they will be assigned to a specific English shire for seating in the grand hall (Legacy Hall) for the dinner. Shires represented will be Cornwall, Yorkshire, Dorset, Cheshire, Surrey, Kent, Devon, and Suffolk. While assembling in the lobby, guests will be greeted by the lord and lady singers representing their shire and entertained by a brass ensemble, Father Christmas, the magician, fortuneteller, jester and wench. The court singers will sing, followed by the Lord

Creedence Clearwater Revisited plays at the Honeywell Center by Kalie Ammons kalie@thepaperofwabash.com Last Friday, Nov. 22, Creedence Clearwater Revisited made a stop at a packed Ford Theater to perform some of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s most beloved hits, including My Back Door, Heard it through the Grapevine, Proud Mary and many more. Started in 1995 by original Creedence Clearwater Revival members bassist Stu Cook and drummer Doug “Cosmo” Clifford, the group originally only played private parties. However, a friend of the members asked to promote the band. Reluctantly, the band was convinced, and since then they’ve been playing up to 100 shows a year. CCR opened up with Born on the Bayou, bringing audi(continued on page 24)

Chamberlain and Town Crier announcing the beginning of the festivities as the Lord and Lady of the manor (Ham Sadler and Beth Perkins) are introduced. Beefeater guards then escort the royalty to the grand hall where they will preside over the evening’s festivities. Guests are then escorted to the hall by the page for their shire and their hosting singers. Upon arrival, their senses will be transported back to another era as the hall is decorated and pageantry represents an English manor in the year 1475. Each course of the gourmet dinner is introduced by a brass fanfare and the litter bearers bringing the food for the Lord’s approval before being served to the guests. The evening’s menu consists of a dinner salad, a wassail toast, and a roast pork loin dinner including sweet potato casserole and green beans, and dessert of bread pudding. The courses follow the traditional outline for a madrigal feast with the wassail toast, the boar’s head, and the figgy pudding. Entertainment in the grand hall during dinner will include a

singing nuns’ chorus, wandering musicians, as well as the fortuneteller, wench, and the fun and frolic of the court jester. Guests will be treated to the humor of a short cutting from Shakespeare’s “Midsummer Night’s Dream” performed by the mummers. Actors in the skit include Jonathan Cornell, Gary Dale, Eric Seaman, Mike Chenault, Ron Frischman, and Charlie Dye. The court singers entertain throughout the evening, including a short “concert” with surprise guests appearing and the concluding event of the evening, the nativity scene. This core group of singers includes Peggy Coppler, Lauren Millspaugh, Jan Douglas, Laura Eppley, Susan Jones, D’Ann Stouffer, Sarah See, Mark Williamson, Todd Dazey, Ware Wimberly, Kurt Krauskopf, Gregg Reed, Wesley Dunnagan, Bruce Green, added to the voices of Lord Ham and Lady Beth. Audience participation will be encouraged during the evening. Guests who have attended madrigal dinners in the past

will notice changes in the script and music, adding freshness to the pageantry. The planning committee made a conscious effort to include Christmas carols from several English shires. “Rejoice and Be Merry” was found in a church gallery book in Dorset; “We’ve Been Awhile A-Wandering” comes from Yorkshire; “Gloucestershire Wassail” hails from the shire with its name; “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” comes from the West Country; “Coventry Carol” and “Sussex Carol” come from shires of their name; “Deck the Hall” is native to the country of Wales, England’s neighbor to the southwest. The complete cast includes 55 performers. In addition to the Lord and Lady of the Manor, the court singers, and the mummers, the cast includes Eric Shoening as Lord Chamberlain; Ron Frischman as Town Crier; John Minkler as Jester; Trey Wright as Jester-in-training; Beth Miller as the Wench; Mike Malooley and Ken Perkins as Beefeaters; Gary Dale and Mike Chenault as Litter bearers; Sophie France as the Sprite;

Denise Stouffer as Fortune teller; Charles Chapman and Cary Coppler as Father Christmas (one each evening); Jim Snapp as Magician; Diane Eshelman, Kathleen Frank, Eileen Dye, Jane Willmert, and Cindy Rich as the Nuns’ Chorus; Rod Morrison and Jane Willmert as Wandering Minstrels; Carolyn Eppley, Josh Cortez, Dan Servos, Lindsay Knee, and Kaitlyn Whinery as the Brass ensemble; Missy Lundmark as the Dancer at the Manger; Dayna Dale, Zayne Hunter, Suzi Sapusek, Amira Siddiqui, Lexi Wright, Nathanael Fadil, Ellie Proebstle and Erin Proebstle as pages. The planning committee is Beth Miller and Charly Dye, serving as co-producers, assisted by Judy Ward, Jane Willmert, Ham Sadler, Denise Stouffer plus the staff at Honeywell Center. Judy Ward serves as

music director for the production. Carolyn Eppley and Lindsay Knee are directing the brass ensemble; Jane Willmert is directing the nuns’ chorus. Beth Miller and Charly Dye lead speaking cast rehearsals. Denise Stouffer is the costumer for the event.

Vicky Malooley will serve as stage manager. Tickets are on sale at the Honeywell Center box office. The price includes the gourmet dinner plus a full evening of entertainment. For tickets, call 260-563-1102 by Dec. 3 to ensure your seating.

bers of the crowd to their feet. Griffey brought a new level of intensity with a nearly ten-minute high energy solo while playing Susie Q. Griffey doubled as the band’s heartthrob, working his way to dancing audience members to play out his solos. Steve Gunner, as drummer Cosmo put it, “plays everything.” Gunner brought keyboard, acoustic guitar, percussion, harmonica and high harmony vocals to the Ford Theater. Dressed in a Hawaiian shirt, Gunner seemed to have a blast on stage and could be spotted playing air guitar when having a spare moment. Midway through the show, Cook and Clifford came out to speak with the crowd and tell their story. After 55 years of friendship, the members were able to rel-

ish in good times together. “We’re 68 years old,” Clifford said. “Right now, I feel about 24. By the end of the show, I’m going to feel 18. It’s not as great as it seems, I get acne and Stu has to buy my beer for me. But he’s been doing that a long time now anyway.” In the midst of joking around, Clifford did have a serious message to offer. “While we’re on this Earth taking up space, remember to have fun. You don’t know when it will end.” With that, the crowd went wild. The band seemed as if it would end the show with Fortunate Son, but due the crowd’s demanding cheers and standing ovation, Creedence Clearwater Revisited came out to play two more songs, including Have You Ever Seen the Rain.

25 Local second graders explain steps for making Thanksgiving dinner THE PAPER

November 27, 2013

Amy Stearley’s second grade class at Metro North Elementary recently submitted their instructions on how to acquire and prepare turkeys for Thanksgiving dinner. The instructions may not result in a tasty, safe, or even edible Thanksgiving meal, but there’s no doubt they will result in a few good laughs. How To Make a Thanksgiving Turkey by Destynee Bayliss Step One: Go hunting and then kill it and then put it in a cage and take it home. Step Two: Take the feathers off and take the guts out. Step Three: Put it in the oven for 15 minutes. This is the temperature that I am going to put it on: 10 degrees. Step Four: Put salt on it, and then cut it up. That’s how you make a Thanksgiving turkey. How to Make a Thanksgiving Turkey by Tristan Hoffman Step One: Go over to Grandpa Bob’s house, and he has a lot of turkeys in his yard. Step Two: Once you kill it, you carry it in Grandpa Bob’s house. He will cut the guts out of the turkey. Step Three: Once you get the guts out of it, you put it on a grill for 30 minutes. Step Four: And once you put it on a grill, you take it out. Before you eat, you say your prayers. And while you’re eating, you use your manners. How To Make a Thanksgiving Turkey by Madeline Moore Step One: Go to Wal-Mart. Go with a parent, and go to the freezer aisle and pick out your turkey. Step Two: Take it to Nanna and Dono’s house and put it in the flour and mix it all up. Take it out of the bowl of flour. Take a turkey baster and stick it in the turkey to get the stuff out.

Step four: You can put it on a big pan or put it in a big bowl and get a piece of turkey. How To Make a Thanksgiving Turkey by Kyler Light Step One: You buy it from Wal-Mart. Do not buy Butterball.

Lady Norse fall to Heritage Christian in invite championship

by Gary Andrews The Northfield Lady Norse hosted their annual invite Saturday with Fairfield, Concord and Heritage Christian paying a visit. Northfield would face off against Fairfield in game one, shaking a slow start and hanging on for a 50-43 win. The Norse would then get to face 2A #1 Heritage Christian in the final, falling 70-33. In the morning session, Northfield took a while to get awake and trailed 9-5 after the first quarter against Fairfield. With balanced scoring, the Norse took off in the second quarter with six different players scoring to erase their deficit and led 20-14 at the half.

Payton Thomson led the surge with 5 points. Northfield came out swinging to start the third, getting two buckets from Arie Kennedy, a three from Thomson, and a bucket from Sidney Reed, to take a 30-14 lead. Fairfield would chip away at the Norse lead, and after three, Northfield led 34-25. As the theme of the game would go, the Norse would increase their lead to start the fourth. Katie Stephan got a put back bucket that started an 11-4 run and the Norse led 45-29 with 4:50 to go. The Fairfield pressure would then start to get to Northfield, and with 1:00 remaining, the lead had been cut to 47-42. With a steal and some missed

free throws Fairfield threatened, but each time, Kylie Echard blocked a shot to erase any hope. Thomson would hit two free throws with 27.5 left and Stephan one free throw with 15.1 to seal the deal and the right to play #1. Arie Kennedy led the Norse with 13 points.

THANKSGIVING Cost of Thanksgiving meal drops, according to IFB survey www.thepaperofwabash.com

The cost for a traditional Thanksgiving meal in Indiana dropped sharply from 2012 to 2013, according to an informal survey of grocery costs from Indiana Farm Bureau. The annual survey indicates that the average cost for this year’s Thanksgiving meal for 10 is $48.12, down nearly $3 from last year’s average of $51.05. “The cost of this year’s meal, at less than $5 per serving, remains an excellent value for consumers,” said Isabella Chism, Indiana Farm Bureau’s second vice president. Part of a national survey coordinated by the American Farm Bureau, the Indiana shopping list includes turkey, bread stuffing, sweet potatoes, rolls with butter, peas, cranberries, a relish

tray of carrots and celery, pumpkin pie with whipped cream, and milk, all in quantities sufficient to serve a family of 10. There is also plenty for leftovers. The big-ticket item – a 16-pound turkey – was $23.04 or $1.44 per pound, a decrease of $2.72 per turkey or 17 cents per pound. “Slightly higher turkey production for much of the year coupled with an increase in birds in cold storage may be responsible for the moderate price decrease our shoppers reported,” said John Anderson, deputy chief economist at the American Farm Bureau Federation. Strategic shoppers may pay even less for frozen tom turkey compared to AFBF’s 167 volunteer shoppers, who checked prices at grocery

stores in 34 states. Among those were the 18 shoppers who participated in IFB’s survey. “Special sales and promotions on turkey and other holiday food items will continue right up to Thanksgiving,” Anderson explained. “If you have the patience to wait until the last minute to buy a turkey, you might come home with an exceptional bargain.” In addition to the turkey, other prices that decreased on the Indiana survey were whole milk, which dropped by 26 cents a gallon to $2.76; whipping cream, down 22 cents to $1.62 for a half pint; a dozen rolls, down 16 cents to $1.83; frozen pie shells, which dropped 4 cents to $2.34 for two; and a 1-pound relish tray of carrots and celery, down 3 cents to 83

Items that showed a moderate price increase from last year included stuffing, up 21 cents to $2.62; 3 pounds of sweet potatoes, up 15 cents to $2.97; 12 ounces fresh cranberries, up 8 cents to $2.44; and pumpkin pie filling mix, up 4 cents to $3.07. In addition, a combined group of miscellaneous items including coffee and ingredients necessary to prepare the meal (onions, eggs, sugar, flour, evaporated milk and butter) increased 2 cents to $3.20. Farm Bureau volunteer shoppers are asked to look for the best possible prices, without taking advantage of special promotional coupons or purchase deals.

Cost of Thanksgiving meal drops, according to IFB survey... continued from page 30 the country should be able to purchase individual menu items at prices comparable to the Farm Bureau survey averages. The AFBF survey

was first conducted in 1986. While Farm Bureau does not make any scientific claims about the data, it is an informal gauge of price trends around

the nation. Farm Bureauâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s survey menu has remained unchanged since 1986 to allow for consistent price comparisons.

WABASH COUNTY RESIDENT NICK RHOADS plays guitar on stage during the Boscoe France Band performance at Eagles Theatre, Thursday, Nov. 21. Rhoads met the guitarist in March after his performance at the Eagles. This time around, France motioned for him to come on stage mid-song, took his guitar off (while still playing), seamlessly transitioning into a solo by Rhoads. At one point, the two played France’s Les Paul at the same time, resulting in a four-handed symphony of electronic sound. (photo by Eric Stearley)

SHOWING OFF SOME “STUPID G U I T A R TRICKS” as he put it, Boscoe France plays a solo with his guitar behind his head, In addition to this, he played with the guitar slung behind his back and even played with his mouth, all with such proficiency that if you couldn’t see him, you wouldn’t have noticed any difference.

BOSCOE FRANCE PLAYS GUITAR WITH HIS MOUTH during his band’s Thursday Night Blues performance Nov. 21 at Eagles Theatre. Earlier in the set, France said “I need to stop talking. Every time I open my mouth I sound like Forrest Gump,” but no one minded when he opened his mouth to pluck the strings of his Gibson, a move introduced by Jimi Hendrix in the 1960s.

added.” Responses are requested by Dec. 5. Call 260-563-9070 to reserve your ticket, or visit the Wabash County Historical Museum at 36 E Market Street.

Wabash County Economy continues improvement The Economic Development Group of Wabash County, Inc. (EDG) announced significant improvement in per capita income in Wabash County as the labor force continues to grow. Data released by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis indicates that per capita income levels for Wabash County increased by 6.6 percent during 2012. Growth in the Wabash County per capita income substantially exceeded the levels of growth in the State of

Indiana (4.9 percent) and the U.S. (3.4 percent). This marks the third consecutive year that growth in the Wabash County per capita income has out-performed the state and the U.S. In 2002, the Wabash County per capita income was 90 percent of the State. With this report as of the end of 2012, the Wabash County per capita income now sits at 97 percent of the State. In addition, the Wabash County labor force grew again and now number 16,034.

With growth in the labor force and growth in employment, the Wabash County Labor Penetration rate is now up to 49.547 percent an increase from the 49.436 percent in September. The unemployment rate of 6.8 percent is also better than the 7 percent rate of Indiana and the U.S. These are strong indications that Wabash County is continuing to improve and that the economic development strategy to expand and diversify

the Wabash County economy is moving in the right direction. “We are pleased that these reports indicate that we are moving in the right direction,” said Bill Konyha, President and CEO of Economic Development Group of Wabash County, Inc. “This strategy reduces reliance upon one industry sector and provides us with more opportunities to grow and to provide career ladders for our children and grandchildren.”

Living well in Wabash County to purchase two replacement buses with ARRA grants by Ashley Flynn ashley@thepaperofwabash.com Living Well in Wabash County CoA, Inc, will be purchasing two new replacement buses sometime late next year thanks to unused funds from a previous American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grant. The announcement comes after Living Well CEO Beverly Ferry received a phone call from INDOT notifying that 100 percent of the money requested would come from this grant instead of from the 2014 5311 Capital Grant and 20 percent matching grant from the county that Living Well originally requested. “This came as a

complete surprise to the local public transportation system and eliminates the need to find the funds to pay the 20 percent matching funds,” said Ferry in a press release. Living Well in Wabash County is the local operator contracted by the county to run Wabash C o u n t y Transportation. C o u n t y Commissioners signed the contract for the buses at the Nov. 25 commissioners meeting. They expect to have the new buses between late fall of 2014 and midwinter 2015. “It is important to keep in mind that we try to get 250,000 to 300,000 miles out of each vehicle in the fleet. When we apply

for a vehicle through INDOT, we are doing so knowing that by the time the new vehicle arrives as a replacement, the old vehicle is often past time to remove from service. We try to time it so that we will not have to make expensive repairs to the vehicle to keep it in the fleet, but that is not always possible,” Ferry said in a letter to the commissioners. Formerly the Wabash County Council on Aging, Living Well has been in the transportation business since 1974. In recent years, the system has seen a dramatic rise in the need for rides. In 2012 the system provided more than 45,000 rides for more 1,481 unduplicated individuals for

all ages. This year, the transportation system has been unable to keep up with the local need for transportation with more than 2,400 riders signed up in the system. Wabash County Transportation receives federal and state operational funding, which is matched with operating funds from the City of Wabash, Wabash County government, North Manchester Town Council, United Fund of Wabash County and Community Foundation of Wabash County, inkind contribution from local businesses and donors to the Living Well in Wabash County’s Annual Fund.

Community breakfast benefits Manchester Early Learning Center

The North M a n c h e s t e r Congregational Christian Church invites you to join them on Saturday, Dec. 7 for an all-youcan-eat breakfast from 7-10 a.m. A freewill donation for your meal is asked. Waitresses will serve from the menu, which includes biscuits, and gravy, eggs to order, bacon, sausage, French toast, pancakes, pan-fried potatoes, toast, fruit and beverages.

Thanks to the community, the November breakfast earned a $1,200 donation to Fellowship of Churches REACH program and proceeds from the upcoming breakfast will benefit the Manchester Early Learning Center. Their goal is to once again raise $1,200. MELC was established in 1970, is open from 5:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and serves as Wabash County’s only state-licensed center.

The center is filled to capacity with 55 children, infants through 12 years, enrolled in their program. Janet French, the center’s executive director, along with her assistant director, JoEtta Herrmann, works to provide the highest quality program possible on a shoestring budget. Due to a decrease in donations and annual giving, the center has struggled to meet payroll and food allotments during 2013.

Maintenance and improvements have been made only when/if resources, including volunteer help, were available. Your donations as well as volunteer support is much needed to keep the MELC open and operating at its best. Come on out

to the Community Breakfast or make your donation by sending a check to the North Manchester Congregational Christian Church. “To take a phrase from (an old song.... Come on, let’s work together!”) stated Pastor J. P. Freeman

as he encourages the church and community to come together to support each other. “ It’s what Jesus would want us to do.” We invite everyone to join us on the Corner of Fourth at Walnut to enjoy a great breakfast and help some folks out!

The Congregational Christian Church is located at 310 N. Walnut Street, North Manchester. Contact the church at 260-9822882 or on the web at www.brightlightccc.o rg for more information about the church.

Manchester Main Street’s downtown storefront holiday artwork on display Manchester Main Street is thankful for the tremendous support of local businesses and residents in helping “Light Up The Town” this holiday season. The Main Street business corridor is dazzling with festive white lights outlining the merchants’ windows. You may also notice new holiday artwork in the downtown s t o r e f r o n t s . Manchester Main Street’s Historic Preservation & Design and Promotion & Art committees have col-

laborated with M a n c h e s t e r Community Schools (MCS) for this annual installation. Each year MCS elementary, intermediate and junior high students create colorful banner designs for the Honeywell Center’s Winter Banner Contest. Wabash and Miami County districts are invited to participate, and ten banners from each school are submitted and displayed at the Clark Gallery. This year 32 winners were honored

and will be reproduced as full-sized street pole banners. MCS’ 2013 selections will be installed on the new historic light posts in downtown North Manchester by early December. Manchester Main Street coordinated with MCS art teachers and downtown building owners to fill the windows of 15 storefronts with the student banner artwork. We invite you to take a stroll downtown. 132 creative holiday scenes

complement the decorative lighting on Main Street. And, while taking in the sights, be sure to stop by North Manchester’s many unique retailers and specialty stores for all your holiday shopping needs. For more information, visit www.manchestermainstreet.org or contact Renata Robinson, Manchester Main Street Executive Director, at 260-901-6045 or manchestermainstreet@gmail.com.

Paired Watershed Study continues in its second year

by Nan Hammel, ISDA Resource Specialist The Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative, led by M a n c h e s t e r University, is in its second year of a paired watershed study on Beargrass Creek and Paw Paw Creek in Northern Wabash County. The study began in 2012 as Manchester University and the Wabash County Soil and Water Conservation District partnered together to procure funding from the Indiana Association of Soil & Water Conservation Districts to buy automatic water sampling equipment for the project. The main goal of the project is to monitor the water quality of two tributary watersheds of the Eel River relatively equal in size, while promoting the adoption of cover crops on agricultural land in one watershed to be compared to the other ‘untreated’ watershed as a control. The hope is to prove the real benefit of cover crops on water quality through the prevention of soil erosion and nutrient leaching and runoff in a real world, watershed-scale situation. The Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative has been promoting cover crops in the Beargrass Creek Watershed through its 319 Clean Water Act Grant cost-share program. A $100,000 portion of the total costshare in the 319 grant was set aside this past year for cover crop adoption in the Beargrass Creek Watershed. About 141 acres of cover crops were cost-shared for in Beargrass Creek this fall. More cost-share will be available for cover crops in Beargrass Creek through the 319 grant in 2014 and 2015. The 319 cost-share program also extends to other watersheds with the remainder of its total cost-share funds. Other qualifying tributary watersheds in the Eel River Watershed include: Flowers Creek, Little Weesau & Weesau Creek, Oren Ditch, Otter Creek, Silver Creek, Squirrel Creek,

Town of Roann, and Washonis Creek. If you have any questions regarding the Middle Eel River

Watershed Initiative 319 Grant Cost-share program please contact the Wabash County Soil and Water

Conservation District at 260-563-7486 Ext. 3 or stop by the office at 599 Bryan Ave., Wabash, IN 46992.

Mutant corn could yield new ways to curb ‘billion-dollar bug’ Purdue and University of Illinois researchers have discovered a novel corn mutant whose leaves

are highly susceptible to attack by Western corn rootworm beetles, a pest that feeds primarily on corn

" ! AU11200110

silks and pollen. While Western corn rootworm beetles were previously thought to avoid corn leaves based on foodsource preference, study of the mutant suggests that normal corn plants have an active defense mechanism that deters the beetles from feeding on their foliage. Identifying this mechanism could lead to new strategies for controlling Western corn rootworm, which is the most destructive insect pest of corn in the U.S. “This opens up a whole new opportunity to understand more about the mechanism of defense in corn to control this beetle,” said Gurmukh Johal, professor of botany and plant pathology. Johal and Stephen

Moose of Illinois independently discovered the mutant around the same time. “In identifying the genetic pathway involved in resistance, we can develop better ways of controlling this pest without having to use insecticides,” Johal said. Western corn rootworm causes more than $1 billion damage a year in yield losses and control costs in the U.S., earning it the nickname “the billion-dollar bug.” The rootworm larvae chew on the roots of corn plants while the adult beetles eat the silks and pollen. Current control measures include crop rotation, transgenic corn plants and insecticides. But a rise in continuous corn systems,

increased rootworm resistance to transgenic plants and changes in rootworm behavior have rendered these management strategies less effective. Because the leaves of the corn mutant are singularly attractive to Western corn rootworm beetles, the mutant could be used in a “push-pull” pestmanagement strategy - luring the beetles to a specific location where they can be controlled, said Christian Krupke, assistant professor of entomology and coauthor of the study. “Once you can get them where you want, you can use efficient, cost-effective ways of controlling them, either by directly targeting and eliminating them or by keeping them away from

your main crop,” he said. In the absence of the beetle, the mutant is virtually indistinguishable from normal corn plants, which may be why it was not discovered earlier, said Johal. Its leaves do not become vulnerable to attack by rootworm beetles until it reaches the vegetative stage, about 5-6 weeks into the growth process. On finding the mutant, Western corn rootworm beetles scrape away the leaf tissue from the upper epidermis, resulting in a transparent “window pane” appearance. If the beetle infestation is severe, the plants can become completely defoliated, which also can reduce grain yield. A combination of structural and bio-

chemical changes in the mutant leaves make them particularly vulnerable to attack. The cellular lobes that interlock to provide structural strength are smaller and weaker in the mutant leaves. The leaves also have substantially reduced levels of hydroxycinnmates and lignin, compounds that are responsible for crosslinking micro fibers in cell walls. Further research is being done on the possibility of using the mutant in pest control strategies and identifying the genetic pathway in normal corn plants that prevents Western corn rootworm beetles from consuming their leaves. The genes could be used to make corn plants more pestresistant, Johal said.

Old-Fashioned Christmas at the Thomas Marshall House The Thomas Marshall House will be open Dec. 7, from 14 p.m. Local artist and historian Steve Batzka has decorated the house as it might have been decorated in 1854, when Thomas

Marshall was born. “It will represent an old-fashioned Christmas,” said Batzka. “People didn’t observe Christmas like they do today. It was a much simpler time.”

Marshall was born in North Manchester, and became governor of Indiana and Vice President of the United States. His birth house, on north Market Street next to the library, was com-

pletely restored and furnished by the North Manchester Historical Society to its 1852 condition. It is open to the public on the first Saturday of each month. After Dec. 7, the house will

remain closed until next spring. The NMHS’s Center for History also observes a winter hiatus from midDecember through mid-March. Although the Center is not open

for general visitors, groups may arrange tours any time, and staff are available on weekdays to assist with research or accept items donated to its collection.

Grant given to undertake Engineering and Feasibility study for stream bank restoration M a n c h e s t e r U n i v e r s i t y Environmental Studies Program and the Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative recently received a Lake and River Enhancement (LARE) Grant from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) to undertake an Engineering Feasibility Study for a stream bank restoration project on the Eel River in North Manchester. The project will focus on approximately 600 feet of severely eroded stream bank directly behind the Main Street businesses near the Market

Street Bridge. This area of stream bank is suffering not only from severe erosion, but is also degraded due to the disposal of waste materials that were dumped over the riverbank. The University has formed a LARE Steering Committee to help guide the project. Cardno JFNew has been hired as the consultant to perform the study. The goals of the E n g i n e e r i n g Feasibility Study will be to: Eliminate future dumping of waste materials along this section of stream bank.

Determine the most appropriate, effective, sustainable actions and remediation measures to reduce stream bank erosion. Identify the potential for improved wildlife habitat for nongame fish species and freshwater mussels. Raise awareness, educate, and involve the local community in the project design to ensure a sustainable, successful, stream bank restoration project. Identify partners for future work, including the actual construction of the restoration design.

The Engineering Feasibility Study is the first step in the process to develop an implementation and restoration plan for the affected area. The Feasibility Study will be completed no later than July 2015. Local community support and input is essential in the success of this project and will be gathered through a series of public meetings. Manchester Main Street and the Manchester PATH Group have begun developing a Community Trail Network that connects people and places within the

community. There are numerous benefits to the Trail Network including offering safe, scenic, nonpolluting routes that promote economic, social, recreational and educational opportunities within the community. The Community Trail Network passes directly by this section of the Eel River, which creates a unique opportunity for education and recreation. Following completion of the Feasibility Study, it is anticipated that the University, and/or the local community, will pursue additional grants for

construction of the restoration project. The IDNR-LARE Grant will cover 80 percent of the cost for the Engineering Feasibility Study with the remaining 20 percent coming from individual donations and in-kind match. If you would like to contribute to the project, please send checks made out to M a n c h e s t e r University to Terri Michaelis, Watershed C o o r d i n a t o r, M a n c h e s t e r University, 604 East College Avenue, North Manchester, IN 46962.

Small Business Saturday: Greater consumer awareness to fuel more shopping Consumers across the country say they’ll rally behind one of the most important shopping days on the calendar for small businesses – Small Business Saturday. A day created to address one of small business owners’ most pressing needs – more customers. According to the second annual Small Business Saturday Consumer Insights Survey, awareness of Small Business Saturday among U.S. consumers shot up to 44 percent compared to 34 percent during the same period a year ago. In addition, 77 percent of those aware of the day say that they plan to “shop small” this year. This translates to tens of millions of American consumers who say they plan to patronize a small business on Nov. 30, the Saturday

a f t e r Thanksgiving. The forecasted increase in shopping activity should come as welcome news to retailers facing the shortest holiday shopping since 2002. “Small Business Saturday has really resonated with consumers who are eager to show support for their neighborhoods,” said Susan Sobbott, president at American Express OPEN. “Shoppers have made their intentions clear and we expect Small Business Saturday to be an incredible boon for independent businesses across the country.” Additional findings from the Small Business Saturday Consumer Insights survey include: -Consumers say they would attend a community event on Small Business

Saturday (44 percent); -Part of the reason consumers are attracted to small businesses is because they are able to find gifts for people who are hard to shop for (70 percent) -One-fifth (21 percent) of consumers said one of the main reasons they patronize small businesses is because they offer better prices; and -The top five places that consumers plan to shop on Small Business Saturday are food stores (38 percent), restaurants (37 percent), clothing stores (35 percent), bakeries (34 percent) and gift/novelty stores (31 percent). ”When people shop at small and independent businesses, they are giving back to their communities in a big way,” said NFIB President and CEO Dan Danner.

“It is very encouraging to see that the interest in shopping small grows each year and we expect this year’s Small Business Saturday to be a great success for Main Street.” With more consumers planning to shop, small business owners appear ready. According to small business owners polled earlier this month for the Small

great support from the community and local businesses,” said Sobbott. “Our research shows that for more than half (52 percent) of consumers say the primary reason they choose to shop at a small business is because they feel it is important to their neighborhood and community.”

THE PAPER

Sunflowers: fuel for the future... continued from page 5 space, it’s space that most farmers don’t want to give up, but with sunflowers, they don’t have to. One of the best parts about making sunflowers into fuel is their short growing season. Sunflowers mature in 75-100 days. This allowed Hadley to double-crop his field, planting sunflowers after he harvested wheat. Hadley planted his sunflowers the week after

the Wabash County Fair and harvested on Nov. 16. “This means you can get a cash crop out of the field, then plant a feed and fuel crop,” said Boyer. In his first year, Hadley says his crop was “phenomenal.” Not only does he plan to grow his own fuel again next year, but wants to expand the acreage dedicated to sunflowers and intro-

duce canola as well. “There’s no reason that we can’t do this on a larger scale,” said Boyer. “If the 10 percent biodiesel legislation occurs, there’s going to be a need to meet the mandate.” The spike in the price of diesel in 2008 prompted a large number of people to look into alternative fuels, especially biodiesel. With oil reserves diminishing world-

wide, the number of people seeking alternative, cheaper, and domestically sourced fuel will continue to increase. As farmers, business owners, and fuel consumers of all sorts look toward the future, they may find themselves looking back at a time when the fuel used to transport us from one place to the next was grown on the land, rather than being pumped from

beneath it. Though fuel shortages will not likely result in a return to hay-fueled horse and buggy transportation, more of our fuel will likely start coming from crop fields as less is pulled from oil fields. Change is starting to take place, and residents of Wabash County don’t have to look any further than the sunflower fields south of Somerset to see it.

SUNFLOWERS BRIGHTEN THE LANDSCAPE IN DARIN HADLEY’S FIELD south of Somerset on the afternoon of Oct. 2. His first year in the sunflower business, Hadley said that raising sunflowers wasn’t particularly difficult, but drying the seeds was more difficult than with corn or soybeans. (photo by Eric Stearley)

WEST OF CONVERSE, THE FLOWERS IN JOHN BOYER’S FIELD, planted before Hadley’s sunflowers, reached maturity earlier in the season, drying and turning brown by the beginning of October. (photo by Eric Stearley)

DARIN HADLEY HARVESTS HIS SUNFLOWERS with a John Deere combine on Nov. 16. Hadley said his crop was “phenomenal,” this year, and plans to plant more sunflowers next year, along with an over-winter canola crop, which he is trying for the first time this winter. (photo provided)

ONE OF FOUR OIL PRESSES AT JOHN BOYER’S FARM presses out a crayon-like strand of sunflower meal as it extracts oil. The presses are the “heart of the operation,” according to Boyer, each pressing 50 gallons of oil each day. The presses run 24 hours a day as long as there are sunflower and canola seeds to be pressed. The byproduct being pushed from the front of the pump is used as feed for the farmers’ livestock. (photo by Eric Stearley)
