By Vinde Wells Editor No charges have been filed yet in Ogle County against a Rockford man in connection with shooting early March 22 in rural Byron.

Ogle County State’s Attorney Michael Rock said Tuesday that Brandon McMahon, 20, who is being held in the Winnebago County Jail, has not yet been formally charged. He is accused of shooting a 19-year-old at a residence on North Hoisington Road.

Rockford police took McMahon into custody in Rockford a few hours after the shooting.

Deputy Chief Dave Hopkins of the Rockford Police Department said last week that McMahon is facing a preliminary charge of aggravated discharge of a firearm.

He was also wanted in connection with a shooting in Rockford.

Hopkins said McMahon, a parolee, is on a hold for the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC).

According to IDOC records, McMahon was paroled in July of 2013.

He was sentenced to three years in the IDOC in 2010 after being convicted on several charges, including armed robbery (no firearm) and possession of a firearm by a gang member. All the offenses occurred in Winnebago County.

Animal welfare is defined to include how an animal is coping with the conditions in which it lives. The animal needs to be healthy, comfortable, well nourished, safe, and not suffering from pain, fear, and distress. They need to have appropriate shelter and humane slaughter.

Trone said this definition was open to interpretation in Europe because many of the animal welfare decisions Turn to A2

Spring weather brings 1,970 to 64th antique show 64th Woman’s Club show a hit over weekend

By Vinde Wells Editor The first warm, sunny weekend after a long, cold winter meant a record crowd at the Oregon Woman’s Club’s 64th annual Antique Show. “We had a wonderful turnout — around 1,970 people,� said club president Judy Groharing. “I think people were glad to get out after a hard winter. We even had people still coming after we closed on Sunday.�

Sunshine prevailed both days of the event and Saturday’s temperatures in

the low 50s turned into 60s on Sunday.

The parking areas at and near the Blackhawk Center, Oregon, were already filled with vehicles at 10 a.m.

Saturday, just an hour after the show opened its doors.

Inside the vendor booths were busy with both buyers and “lookers.�

Joe DeWulf from Deer Run Antiques, Waunakee, Wis., a veteran exhibitor at the show, said business was brisk. “It’s been good. We’ve had a lot of interest,� he said as he found an item for a customer from a large antique trunk.

Across the auditorium, Stanley Campbell, Rockford, was looking for political items in the array displayed by Darryl Giambalvo, Wheaton. “I come almost every year,� Campbell said.

In This Week’s Edition...

The show is also a donot-miss event for Larry and Hazel Ford, Sycamore. “We come every year. We mostly just look,� said Hazel as she examined a large crock.

Groharing said the crowd seemed pleased at the wide array of merchandise offered by vendors. “We have such a wide variety of categories, there is something for all interests, and visitors commented a lot on that,� she said. “I saw a lot of all kinds of items go out, and the dealers were very happy. We have many who return and their customers come looking for them.�

The five dealers new to the show this year seemed pleased, Groharing said, and Stanley Campbell, Rockford, looks for political items at Darryl Giambalvo’s booth will likely return.

What’s Cookin event a success From A1 show up at the first planning meeting, “What’s Cookin� came a long way in four months. That was about the time Joyce Bruns proposed the idea to Haas. “I’ve been to the event at Rochelle and had always wanted to do it in Oregon for a fundraiser for the Rock River Center,� Bruns said.

Bruns and her friend Diane Palmer went to Haas and after some convincing got the RRC to buy into the concept. It was a risky venture for RRC, as they had never attempted an off-site fundraiser. “It was an awesome idea, ‘let’s go for it’, I said,�

Haas said. “It took a lot of

coordinating and we were fortunate to have staff with organizational experience.�

Slowly, the venture began to pick up steam as more and more people were contacted. “We couldn’t let that first meeting bother us. We kept right at it,� Bruns said. “It was just a matter of informing the community and they were great at that.�

But, it was Bruns and Palmer who were the driving force behind the event. “From the beginning, Joyce and I wanted to incorporate more than Oregon. We wanted this to be for the whole county,� Palmer said.

Even with the overflow crowds, Haas has no plans at

this point in moving “What’s Cookin� to a bigger venue. “Oak Lane was gracious to host this. They’ve been wonderful to work with,�

Haas said. “We plan to have it at the end of April instead of March.�

Sean Considine, Byron, served as celebrity spokesperson for the event and could be found handing out that chocolate-covered bacon for his joint ventureship with Headon Meats.

The deviled eggs served with bugs were provided by Lucky and Louie Larson of Stillman Valley and winners of the “Get Out Alive� reality television show.

The Chana United Methodist Church provided the food for the event for the first time this year.

Ron Bry, Oregon, is the show’s manager.

The Oregon Woman’s Club, a member of the General Federation of Woman’s Clubs and a nonprofit organization, sponsors the show as its major fundraising event and uses the proceeds to help fund various community projects and charities.

The club sponsors two scholarships for graduating seniors, donates funds and food to the local food pantry, helps the VFW with holiday food baskets, and sends a Mary Lou Mahalik, owner of Mary Lou’s Crystal Repair, student to leadership camp Joliet, smooths a chip from the lip of a glass vase at the Oregon Woman’s Club Antique Show.

Animal care is topic at Rotary’s Rural Urban Day From A1 were driven by marketing.

The regulation of animal housing is a selling point for consumers, even if there is no scientific proof that it was better for the animal, he said.

One chicken farm was a large round building with a retractable roof. “This was built following a consumer survey,� said Trone. “It has Astroturf and toys for the hens to play with.�

The eggs from this facility are sold in a round package with seven eggs at a cost of one dollar per egg, Trone said. “This costs three times as much to products but people are willing to pay the premium,� said Trone. “The European Union consumers have problems with small cages.�

Unfortunately there are other aspects of this system that did not seem humane to Trone. “When the spent hens are taken out of service they are ground up live for mink feed,� he said. “This fact was not discussed on our visit.�

On pig farms there are rules about how pigs are fed and what types of stalls they can be housed in.

These rules, Trone said, may appear beneficial on

the surface, however from what he observed the animals had more injuries than how pigs are raised in the United States. Some of the injuries were not as apparent because pigs are sold at a lighter weight in Europe.

He said the piglet mortality rate was high on European farms.

Trone said the farmers he met in Europe have adapted to the rules they are required to follow and the changing market conditions. “We visited a dairy farm in England and saw how they changed their notch to what the clients needed,� said Trone. “They are adaptable.

The cows in England must have daily access to a pasture in order for the farmer to sell his product.�

He said for large dairy operations in the United States this could be difficult to accomplish if the same rules were adopted locally.

One law which has the potential to be adopted sooner in the United States is animal tracking. “Animal ID is rampant in Europe,� Trone said. “It is necessary and mandatory and it allows for tracking and managing of every animal.�

Calves are tagged and registered within 48 hours of birth and they are issued

a passport that stays with the animal. “It is a cumbersome process but the producers liked what it allows them to do,� said Trone. “The farmers are able to tell you which grocery store their products were sold at.�

Products even had photos of the dairyman on a gallon of milk to let consumers know which farm produced the milk.

Trone said the volume of product is on a different scale than what American demands are.

If there was a problem the source it could be tracked immediately and addressed.

While this was beneficial, the strict regulation on antibiotics make dealing with illnesses difficult for European farmers. “Danish farmers use one fifth the antibiotics of U.S. farmers,� said Trone. “They took the antibiotics dispenses away from the veterinarian. They want 100

percent diagnoses with lab confirmation on diseases.�

Trone said this takes the control away from the farmer and veterinarian. “This adds delays with treatment,� he said. “They are afraid of using antibiotics wrong and have strict penalties.�

If farmers in Europe violate antibiotic rules they could be restricted from selling their products.

With all the rules and regulations, Trone said there has been an unexpected side effect. “The farms in Europe are getting bigger which is not what was intended when the laws were created,� he said.

Trone urges local farmers to try and learn about all proposed laws while there is still time for opinions to be voiced. “We should not change laws based on non-scientific Abe Trone talks about a recent trip to Europe during policy or public perception,� the March 26 Oregon Rotary Meeting.

In March 1951, Paul F. Behan, owner of the Reporter, and E.D. Landers and his son E.G. (Tim) Landers united the newspapers into the Republican Reporter. Ernest D. Landers died in 1966, and E.G. and Behan became partners. Eventually, E.G. Landers assumed sole ownership, and in 1985 he sold the newspaper to B.F.

Spangler rose from Depression to business owner Editor’s note: Otto Dick, Oregon, has researched the people, places, and events important in Oregon’s history for the Ogle County Historical Society.

The following is part of a series of the articles he has written.

By Otto Dick As mentioned in the previous article Walt Spangler grew up during the Depression, never feeling like he was deprived.

He picked himself up living a wonderful life through hard work and became very successful.

The following is a summary of his life.

1. He was born in Daysville attending the Daysville Country School. He had two teachers during the eight years he attended.

He tended the school furnace for 10 cents a day.

He went back each night to bank the furnace.

2. The first job he received pay for was helping dig out a basement under Daysville School.

Walt said two other young punks, George and John Andrew from Paynes Point helped. He said that’s what they called boys at that time.

3. His next job in 1937 was working on a road crew working on Ridge Road. He said this was good money.

4. He quit the road crew to work for Piper Heating and Plumbing. His father had told him to work hard, treat people right and get a trade.

He made less money

working for Piper so he could learn a trade and receive his masters license.

5. During World War II Walt served in the Navy.

6. After the war he built his house across the street from the school house. A short time after he moved in he supplied the house with one water pipe into the kitchen.

7. In 1953 Walt and his brother, Clyde, went into the plumbing, heating and electrical business.

Mr. Madlener put a signed check on the table and told Walt to fill in the amount they needed to start the business.

They borrowed $5,000 dollars and paid it off before the note was due.

Their place of business was in Walt’s garage with a dirt floor and the basement of his house.

8. In 1965 he built a cabin in Wisconsin. When Jualia first looked back and saw her son on water skis she told Walt he looks like a bull frog.

9. Walt went over to Polo and learned how to fly. He purchased his own plane and he and his daughter Melody would go up on a moonlight night and buzz over local towns.

10. One day work was getting the best of him and he blew up.

A friend told him about a Dale Carnegie course being offered in Polo. He received an achievement for best speech.

He learned it’s time to glue things together and not have another runaway by

Walt Spangler during World War II.

controlling your emotions.

11. Later in life he starting to play golf. He said he just chopped along. Rich Rhoads said his father played golf with Walt.

Standing behind Walt and Julia Spangler are their children Steve, Melody, and Phyllis.

12. He worked at Lifeline Pantry for 15 years. He said, “I volunteered to help those who have less than nothing.�

Several times Walt said he was not an educated man.

He graduated from eighth grade, joined the work force, learned a trade, served in World War II, built a cabin in Wisconsin, built a home for himself, flew an airplane, played golf, built a very successful business, did volunteer work, was a VFW member and an active member in his church.

Like Pastor Michael Hoffman said at his funeral the mold was broken when Walt was born.

Not only did he live and work here he made this a Walt Spangler stands beside his work vehicle. Photo supplied better place to live.

Master Gardener training in Oregon Sept. 5 - Nov. 21 University of Illinois Extension is pleased to announce that Master Gardener Training will be held in Ogle County on Fridays beginning Sept. 5 through Nov. 21.

The trainings will be held from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Ogle County Extension office located at 421 W. Pines Rd., Oregon. Interested people should apply now for the training.

While the Master Gardener program is nationwide, Illinois started its first training in 1975 and now boasts more than 3,500 Master Gardeners statewide.

Training is offered on a rotational basis throughout the state.

Master Gardeners are volunteers who have received training in horticulture from University of Illinois Extension educators.

After the initial training, 60 hours of volunteer work are required over a two-year period. Once the 60 hours are completed the volunteer becomes a certified Master Gardener.

To maintain active status, each year the volunteer must complete 30 hours of volunteer work and 10 hours of continuing education.

As volunteers, Master Gardeners make a difference in the community.

Over the last year, the 22 active Master Gardeners in Ogle County contributed over 1,500 volunteer hours, answering homeowners’ gardening questions, teaching gardening lessons for children, planning and presenting at educational workshops, and working with 4-H and local organizations.

Reading Matters

By Mary Gardner Reading Specialist English Language Arts and the Illinois Learning Standards School districts across Illinois are working to implement the Common Core State Standards.

This column will give some general background information about the English Language Arts Common Core State Standards.

Then for the next several months we will look at some of the tasks and terms associated with the Illinois Common Core as they relate to the language arts.

Although these standards are not without controversy, they are the current expectations for our schools.

It is important that as parents and grandparents we try to better understand the goals set out for our childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and grandchildrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s literacy learning.

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) were adopted in Illinois in 2010.

Illinois is one of more than 40 states who are also implementing these standards.

Why did we need new learning standards?

In a document titled Realizing Illinois by the Illinois State Board of

Education it is explained this way: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our expectations for what students must know and be able to demonstrate were different in 1997 when Illinois adopted the current standards.â&#x20AC;?

They go on to explain that â&#x20AC;&#x153;The new standards aim to provide clear, consistent academic benchmarks with â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fewer, clearer and higherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; academic standards for essential learning and skills.â&#x20AC;? (p.2) The overarching goal of the CCSS is to prepare our students to be successful in college and in the workforce in the competitive global economy in which they are growing up.

Employees and institutions of higher education have found that many of our students have not been coming to them prepared for success in work and college.

There are six areas in the English language arts standards.

They are: reading foundational skills, reading literature, reading informational text, speaking and listening, language (grammar) and writing.

These are all written for kindergarten through 12th grade.

Additionally there are Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies,

Science and Technical Subjects for grades 6 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 12.

In general the CCSS require students to read more kinds of texts.

For example, it is recommended that students in kindergarten through fourth grades read 50 percent informational texts and 50 percent fiction.

As students get older, the suggested percentage of informational texts increases and by grades 9 -12 it is 30 percent fiction and 70 percent informational texts.

The reasoning behind this is that in the real world, and certainly in the workforce and in college, the biggest percentage of required reading is informational texts.

Add to that the fact that most informational text, especially textbooks and manuals, are much more difficult to read and understand.

We must prepare our students to be able to independently read and understand all kinds of texts.

My hope is that this series will help us better understand the kinds of tasks our children and grandchildren will be working on with the implementation of these new standards in our schools.

Next month weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look at the idea of close reading and how it relates to the Common Core State Standards.

An eye exam is a good idea, especially if things are starting to look a little fuzzy around the edges.

Polo police continuing to investigate sexual assault

By Vinde Wells Editor Polo police are remaining vigilant but have no new information about a man accused of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old boy walking home from school in February.

“We’ve heard of no further incidents and no further sightings,” Police Chief Dennis Christen said Tuesday. “We’re keeping our eyes open.”

Christen issued a news release March 6 that said a man stopped the boy, who was walking home from school, and groped the child’s genitals.

The press release was issued a day after the boy

reported the incident, which is believed to have happened about 3:30 p.m. around Feb. 5 in the 100 block of South Pleasant Avenue, just two blocks from Centennial Elementary School.

Authorities are looking for the man based on the boy’s detailed description.

The man physically stopped the boy and groped him, but did not speak to the youth, according to the release. The boy told police he hit the man in the face, causing him to release the child, who ran home.

According to the police description, the man is white, between 50 and 60 years old, five feet, 11 inches tall, thin build with bright blue or baby blue eyes and white hair. He

was not wearing glasses or gloves.

He had white facial hair that looked like he hadn’t shaved in several days, according to the police.

The man’s upper lip was normal but his lower one had a triangular hump in the middle. His fingers were crooked, possibly arthritic.

He was wearing a blue jumpsuit, believed to be coveralls, and a black stocking hat. Under the coveralls was some type of coat with a blue hood that was also pulled up over his stocking hat. He wore black, lace-up winter boots.

Anyone with information on this incident is asked to call the Polo Police Department at 815-946-3412.

Security changes at FHS A new security system was installed during the week of March 24 at Forreston Junior and Senior High School.

“This new procedure will help provide another level of safety and security for our building,” Principal Michael Mandzen said Tuesday in a press release. “We appreciate your patience and understanding in our efforts to protect the well-being of our

most significant resource, our students and staff.”

As of March 31, the school building will be locked and secured from 7:40 a.m. until 2:40 p.m.

The building’s two main entrances will be locked to all visitors. During the school day, visitors will enter the exterior doors and then encounter locked interior doors.

A sign on one of the doors

will direct visitors to push a button, which notifies the adjacent office of the visitor’s request to enter the building.

A secretary will ask for the visitor’s name and purpose of the visit.

Once these items have been established, the visitor will be given admittance to the building, where he or she may sign in with the secretary in the office.

Bus driver back after wreck

By Vinde Wells Editor The Forrestville Valley school bus driver involved in a crash with a pick-up truck almost two weeks ago was back behind the wheel on Monday.

Forreston Junior and Senior High School Principal Michael Mandzen said Marsha Birkholz drove her usual bus route March 31 when school resumed after spring break.

“She’s in good spirits, and I think it was important for

her to be back in that seat on Monday,” Mandzen said.

Birkholz, 64, Forreston, was one of four persons taken to the hospital March 21 after a pick-up truck hit the school bus head-on on North Pecatonica Road.

School had dismissed early that day for spring break.

The bus was stopped in the southbound lane to let a rider off at 11461 N. Pecatonica Rd. when it was struck in the front by a northbound pickup truck, driven by Timothy Hilton, 28, Pecatonica.

Mandzen said Ogle County Sheriff’s Police at the scene told him that the impact moved the bus 10 to 15 feet backwards.

Two of the six students on the bus, an 11-year-old and a 14-year-old, along with Birkholz and Hilton were taken to area hospitals by ambulance.

Hilton suffered serious injuries.

Ogle County Sheriff Michael Harn said Tuesday A Leaf River firefighter watches as rescue personnel respond to an accident involving that no tickets have been a Forrestville Valley school bus and a pick-up truck. The accident occurred in the issued as yet.

Failure of woodburner is blamed for Feb. 12 blaze

By Vinde Wells Editor

F H N BIG BR OTH ER S BIG S IS TER S OF N W IL

A faulty wood burning stove apparently caused a fire that destroyed a rural Oregon home in February.

“Failure of a wood burner caused the fire,” Oregon Fire Chief Don Heller said Tuesday.

The fire started in the basement of Greg Wessman’s home in the 3,000 block of North Blackhawk Road Feb. 12 and quickly destroyed the structure despite the efforts of firefighters from Oregon and seven other fire departments.

Wessman and his infant A firefighter walks away from the home that burned on Feb. 12. Photo by Chris Johnson grandson escaped from the

home uninjured.

The cause of the fire that destroyed Whiskey’s River restaurant in Oregon March 16 remains under investigation, Heller said.

“I haven’t hear back yet from the state fire marshal’s office,” he said.

The fire was ruled accidental, but the exact cause has not yet been pinpointed.

Heller said earlier that it appears to have started in the basement.

The building’s owner Kevin Wedel, who lived in the upstairs apartment, was not at home when the fire occurred.

Two investigators from

the OSFM and a dog went through the inside of the burned-out restaurant March 17.

The restaurant, which has been closed for some time, is located near the Oregon Fire Station.

Heller said a jogger saw smoke coming from the structure and flagged down an on-duty Oregon policeman who alerted the fire department.

Oregon firefighters were assisted at the scene by the Mt. Morris, Polo, Byron, Stillman Valley, Franklin Grove, Dixon City, and Dixon Rural Fire Departments and the Oregon Ambulance.

Hawks fall to ERABs

Mother Nature provided temperatures in the mid-60s for the Hawk baseball team on Monday.

But that wasn’t quite enough as strong wind gusts coupled with a strong Rockford East team put a damper on Oregon’s season opener. The ERABs (East Red and Black) scored eight runs in three innings en route to a 16-7 win over Oregon.

Oregon’s Tyler Blume Photos by Earleen Hinton reached first base on four balls in the first for the Hawks, but was stranded when Josh Cook grounded out.

East scored one in the second and then six more in the third.

Oregon got on the scoreboard in the fifth inning, but it was too little too late.

Highlights for Oregon included Matt Murray tripling and driving in three runs and Skylar Short driving in two runs for the Hawks.

Hawk pitcher Taylor Brubaker took the loss, allowing eight runs and seven hits in three innings.

The Hawks are scheduled to host Rockford Lutheran on Thursday at 4:30 p.m. , weather permitting, before traveling to Morrison on April 7. They host Winnebago on April 8.

Sports Column Food has a lot to do with high school sports

By Andy Colbert Reporter After visiting Rock River Center’s “What’s Cooking” event at Oak Lane in Daysville over the weekend, I felt inspired to write about food.

What does food have to do with high school sports?

As a matter of fact, quite a bit. There’s a wide mix of issues, such as how nutrition affects athletic performance, teen-age eating habits, soft drink contracts and the potential of concession stands for athletic fund-raising.

There was a time when depriving athletes of liquids at practice and eating a steak dinner before a game were accepted standards.

The school of thought among many a coach was

that a mentally-tougher competitor was created by holding back the water, even in 90-degree temperatures.

Eventually, that ignorant stance was replaced by one that espoused drinking plenty of fluids during games and practices.

The steak dinner thing was another faux pas, based on the misguided notion to load up on protein for optimal performance. As nutritional studies improved, a major shift occurred from proteinloading to carb-loading.

That concept began in long-distance runners and has carried over to all sporting endeavors. It’s a simple premise. Your body breaks down carbohydrates to glucose and stores in it the muscle as glycogen. The glycogen and then converted to energy.

It’s a much more efficient approach than the cave man mentality, which also said that muscle growth came from eating lots of red meat.

What too much protein does

is increase body fat. Muscle growth is best done through strength training, something rarely utilized decades ago.

Even with the scientific advances in sports nutrition, a major concern is the eating styles of young people. There is far too much consumption of junk foods and sugared drinks.

Year after year, I am amazed at the number of injuries and illness that kids in high school have. Poor nutrition practices have to be a factor in this. Shouldn’t the teenage years be a time of optimal health instead?

I’ll go as far to say that too much emphasis is placed on energy bars and sports drinks.

Instead of an energy bar with its hidden fats and sugar, give me fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and regular type foods.

Sports drinks, also loaded with sugar, provide electrolyte replacement, but nothing beats good old water for hydration. What about the so-called energy drinks?

They are nothing more than a caffeine-laden scam perpetrated on a gullible public.

Does a school put students at a health risk in exchange for a financial gain by actively promoting a soft drink company? To a certain extent, that is being done by schools via contracts with Coke and Pepsi.

These exclusive agreements, which state that a soft-drink manufacturer be the sole provider of beverages at a school’s sporting events puts loads of money into the schools coffers. For example, Oregon had probably reaped close to a $1,000,000 from Coke since 1997.

Attract the kids while they’re young and potentially have a customer for life is what Coke has in mind and why they are willing to pay big bucks for that opportunity.

That windfall can be used to upgrade a school’s athletic facilities, thus saving taxpayer dollars. So, is this a good or bad practice?

I’d be curious to hear what other people think. If I was a school administrator, it would be hard for me to say no to all that money.

Finally, let’s talk about concession stands. If run properly, these things can be gold mines.

That’s the difficult part, finding the proper management and volunteer workers to put it all together.

There is an art to food buying, scheduling of labor, forecasting quantities, menu development and methods of preparation.

This is a fiscal unreality, but a real luxury for a school would be to have a trained food service professional manage concessions. The benefits would be increased revenues because of a more efficient operation and better goods and services. And, it sure would take the burden off athletic departments, booster clubs and coaches.

Over the years, the types of food served at concession stands have expanded from

Andy Colbert

popcorn, hot dogs, candy bars and pop. That change started at professional ball parks and have been further influenced by the Food Network, as people’s eating habits have expanded.

Concession stands bring plenty of cash in and provide fundraising opportunities for various school activities. But, is there untapped potential out there?

Meridian School District to ask voters for more money in Nov.

By Vinde Wells Editor The Meridian School Board will ask voters next fall for more money to support education.

The board approved a resolution March 20 that will put a referendum for a 70cent tax increase on the Nov. 4 ballot.

Assistant Superintendent P.J. Caposey, who is also Stillman Valley High School Principal, said that if the referendum passes, it willbring in approximately $1.1 million dollars in revenue for the financiallyailing district.

The increase, if approved by voters, will mean the real

Harsh winter takes toll on evergreens From A7 been used throughout the winter to prevent feeding, as long as reapplied frequently.

But remember, if deer are starving, there is little that will prevent feeding. High fencing can be also used to exclude deer.

So whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the prognosis for these trees? The key to the condition of damaged evergreens is the presence of growing points or buds on the injured branches.

Branches that have had all their buds devoured by hungry animals will not produce new growth this spring.

As a result, some small evergreens may have been completely destroyed.

Larger evergreens may have permanently lost their lower branches. Since buds on arborvitae and junipers are difficult to see, individuals may want to wait until spring before taking any action.

Branches that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

produce new growth by midJune have been destroyed and can be removed.

The other problem noticed on evergreens this spring is damage due to the weight of snow on evergreen trees and shrubs.

The heavy weight of the snow load this year has caused some branches to break and has created some misshapen plants as a result.

This could have been avoided by brushing off snow

throughout the season to lighten the load.

Once a branch is broken, the damage is done, unfortunately. Prune out any damaged branches and keep the plant healthy and vigorous this year to help the plant fill in the damaged area.

If other problems are suspected with evergreens, the Master Gardner Hotlines will be starting this spring in each of the local extension offices.

estate taxes on a $100,000 home will increase by $233.

Local farmers would feel the impact of the tax increase as well, with an average increase in taxes of roughly $2.10 per acre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; although the calculation is more complex than the estimate provided, Caposey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Finding the ideal amount of rate increase is about finding an amount of increased revenue that meets the needs of the district, but places as little additional burden on the taxpayer as possible,â&#x20AC;? Caposey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Currently, however, the need is large and the burden on taxpayers is very real.â&#x20AC;?

Even the most favorable economic forecasts project that the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deficit, currently approaching $2 million, will grow by an average $500,000 per year over the next four years without a referendum, Caposey said.

With the growing uncertainty over state funding, that number could more than double pending decisions levied in Springfield, he said.

The school board and administration have attempted to balance the budget through reductions and fee increases.

In February, 24 positions

were eliminated, programs were cut, and transportation schedules significantly altered.

As a result of those changes, class sizes will increase, middle school students will not have the opportunity to take part in athletics or activities, and registration and sports fees will now be among the most expensive in a four-county (Lee, Ogle, Winnebago, Boone) area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is simply nothing left to cut without eliminating high school athletics and activities and driving class sizes near 30,â&#x20AC;? said Superintendent Robert Willis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This community is truly at a crossroads â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with a future of great success as one option or a future of barely getting by as the other.â&#x20AC;?

In other action March 20 the board: s MOVED THE SCHEDULED start and end times to 8 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. for all schools, district-wide next year as part of a one-tier busing program. s INCREASED REGISTRATION and athletic fees to $110 for kindergarten, $115 for grades 1-8, and $130 at Stillman Valley High School. High school activity and athletic fees will be $100 for the first sport or activity and $50 for the second beginning next year.
