Preparations for Election Day underway n Still time to register to vote

friends & Neighbors

The deadline for voter registration would have normally already passed; however, this year residents can register right up to, and on, Election Day. Jersey County Clerk Steve Pohlman said any registrations between now and the Nov. 4 election must be completed in his office at the county administration building.

“It’s still considered grace period voting, and

“I’m hoping that we get a 75 percent turnout, that’s always my hope.”

you would vote here,” Pohlman said, noting grace period voting began Wednesday.

Voters who register between now and the election will receive a standard ballot, as long as they provide the proper credentials for registration. Otherwise, the voter is given a provisional ballot, which is not counted until the person’s

information has been verified after the election.

The clerk’s office will be open extended hours heading into Election Day, even available on the Sunday before from noon to 3 p.m. to register or make changes to voter information.

Early voting begins in the clerk’s office beginning Oct. 20, and lasts until Nov. 2.

Pohlman said he recently examined the data from a few of the most recent elections, and early voting seems to be becoming more popular. He said he believes around 17 to 18 percent of the voting will be done early, which includes ballots cast through absentee voting.

“It seems to inch up by one percent each time,” Pohlman said. “I think it will go up. I think people really like the idea of early voting, and by the time it gets to a week out before the election most people have made their mind up on who they’re going to vote for.”

Overall, Pohlman said he is always hopeful for a strong turnout with each election.

“I’m hoping that we get a 75 percent turnout, that’s always my hope,” he said. “We always order enough ballots to cover 75 to 80 percent of the people that are registered to vote. It would be nice to get that.”

Between the hotly contested local races and questions on the ballot – PTELL and School Facilities Tax – and the state issues, such as minimum wage, Pohlman hopes voters flock to the polls. Whatever it takes to get people to vote, Pohlman said, ultimately betters the community.

Apple Festival rakes in the fall season

By Bob Crossen Jersey County Journal Vendors and guests were pleased with the weather and historic activities at the Cheney Mansion in Jerseyville Saturday during the historical society’s annual Apple Festival.

St. Louis County residents Sybil Prost and Celeste Litton – the two are sisters – traveled to Jerseyville for the festival after Prost was encouraged to visit by Ringhausen Orchards.

Prost said she buys apples and peaches from Ringhausen Orchards at a farmers’ market near her home. Although they had just arrived at the festival, Prost said she enjoyed the small-town atmosphere

of Jerseyville.

Litton said she was most excited to take a tour of the Cheney Mansion.

“I love to see historical things,” Litton said.

The historic sites are what keep people at the festival each year after they arrive, Patsy Halemeyer, Jersey County Historical Society board member, said.

The apples entice visitors to the historical society’s grounds, but the museum and accompanying historic buildings give them reason to stay.

“I think we’ve been having a nice crowd and everybody is dressed for the weather,” Halemeyer said, dressed as a teacher from the late 1800s and early 1900s. “I think everybody seems to

be having a good time. It’s just been a crowd the whole day.”

She said there were many compliments on the society’s efforts to ensure the historic school and church had desks, chairs and pews that were specific to their period. The attention to detail, she said, is also helpful in educating the public on how things were during that time.

“There’s so much to see. I don’t think a lot of people realize there’s so much to see, especially in the museum,” Halemeyer said. “And it changes all the time.

We don’t leave it the same. It changes.

We get things in and out.”

District 18 receives seven cultivation applications, one for dispensary

By Robert Lyons Jersey County Journal The Illinois departments of Financial Regulation and Agriculture released a report Thursday morning containing the number of medical cannabis cultivation center and dispensary applications received statewide.

Each of the 22 Illinois State Police districts is eligible to receive one license for a cultivation center as part of the Illinois Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act. The state received a total of 159 applications – one more than the state’s original figure of 158 – seven of which came in District 18, which encompasses Jersey, Greene, Calhoun, Macoupin and Montgomery counties.

Leading up to the application deadline, which was Sept. 22, there were several requests of area county boards for letters of support to establish cultivation centers. Greene County approved two such letters and Jersey approved one. Of those three between the counties, two confirmed they indeed submitted their application.

In Jersey County, the board gave a recommendation let-

ter for Scientific Growers, Inc., which later partnered with larger firm Alternative Treatments, LLC. Sam Borek, lawyer for Alternative Treatments, said the company he represents applied for five permits, in addition to the one for Jersey County.

Norb Goetten, who received an approval letter from the Greene County Board, confirmed he applied for a permit, as well, putting himself in competition with Alternative Treatments and five other applicants.

The most applications (14) were received for District 5, which includes Grundy, Kendall and Will counties. District 1 (Carroll, Lee, Ogle and Whiteside counties) and District 17 (Bureau, LaSalle and Putnam counties) each had 13 applicants.

Department of Agriculture Communications Manager Melaney Arnold said in a message to Campbell Publications that Section 145 of the Illinois Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act prohibits the department from disclosing the names of applicants.

Each application required a nonrefundable $25,000 fee, (See, applications, A2) M

By Robert Lyons Jersey County Journal At the end of October, Jersey Community High School senior Krista Russell will take her flute and head to Kentucky.

Russell has been selected as a member of the 2014 FFA National Band, becoming one of only 80 nationwide to receive the honor.

“It’s something big to me because I’m a total music and FFA kid. They both mean a lot to me,” she said. “And not many kids get to go and be a part of the FFA National Band. It’s quite an amazing thing.”

To be considered for the FFA National Band, Russell first had to earn a spot on the state roster.

Then, a select group of State FFA Band members from across the United States and Puerto Rico are chosen to apply for the national band. The application process consisted of submitting an audition tape. She said she found out she had been selected in mid-August.

The FFA National Band plays at the National FFA Convention and Expo in Louisville, Ky., which will be held Oct. 29-Nov. 1. Russell said she and the rest of the national band will arrive a few days early to begin rehearsing for the event.

When the band plays during the opening session of the convention, Russell said, there will be between 25,000 and 30,000 people in attendance. The convention will also be broadcast live on RFD-TV. “I think the first couple of days will be really long days, filled with rehearsal,” she said. “Then toward

the end of the week it will just be performing and having fun.”

Russell said she is excited for the opportunity to play with some of the best high school musicians from around the state, as well as make new friends.

“We’re literally grouped with kids from across the entire country,” she said. “We’ll room in a hotel with them. You get to meet so many new people, it’s going to be the experience of a lifetime.”

Technology Tuesdays give teachers tools for success

By Robert Lyons Jersey County Journal Learning more about computer software and ways to implement it into their classroom strategies was the focus of a program for Jersey teachers.

Every Tuesday during a monthand-a-half of the summer break, teachers gathered at the district office for hour-long training sessions to improve their efficiency with technology in the classrooms.

The volunteer training sessions were dubbed Technology Tuesdays.

“We surveyed the teachers and asked what kind of training and assistance they’d like to have in brief, hands-on sessions over the summer,” Keith Norman, Jersey Community Unit School technology director, said.

The district’s digital conversion was fully established last year with the introduction of the one-to-one program, which put a laptop in the hands of all students in grades five through 12 as a primary learning tool.

“The students are actually driving the use of it at that level, and

the teachers are supporting the students,” he said.

Sessions were devoted to two areas of improvement: classroom instruction and use of technology.

Technology training included working to fully realize the potential of the software and services the district has put in place, such as Edmodo and an array of Google Apps for Education.

Classroom instruction was centered around supporting student learning with technology.

Dr. Lori Hopkins, superintendent, said many teachers dedicated themselves to improving their aptitude over the summer in several ways, and Technology Tuesdays were a major part of that.

“A lot of times you hear, ‘They only work nine months, and they make that salary.’ Well, that’s not true anymore,” she said.

Digital coaches Shelly Robinson and Melanie Fessler, along with Norman, conducted many of the Technology Tuesday workshops, along with some other district employees.

Election

(Continued from A1) “I don’t know that controversy is what gets people involved, you could make an argument for both sides,” Pohlman said. “I believe people seem to be taking a lot of interest in the issues, whether pro or con.”

Between now and Election Day, Pohlman and his staff are preparing the election machines, which include vote tabulators and voting assistance machines. He said it takes several days, but it is better to put the work in now than have problems that could have been addressed arise on Election Day. “I like to think I go above and beyond what is required,” Pohlman said. “I always want to make sure all of our machines are working.”

The assistance machines magnify the print on the ballot on a touch screen for visually impaired voters, and can provide audio cues to those with hearing trouble.

Test ballots are fed into the tabulators to ensure the machines are catching errors and accurately recording votes. If a voter selects too many or not enough options, the machine will beep and let the election judge know what part of the ballot requires attention. The voter can then choose to fix the ballot or cast it as is.

All of the county’s election machines are built by Election Systems and Software, and are individually programmed by the company for each ballot in the county.

Festival

(Continued from A1) caused concern for the festival’s organizers, Halemeyer said the weather cooperated Saturday and she was pleased by the turnout of festival attendees.

Trent Long said he comes to the festival every year because it prepares him for the seasons to come.

“It brings in the fall season. It’s a good time and there are apples,” Long said with a laugh.

Monica Risse, of Springfield, said the live music was entertaining for her and helped set a friendly atmosphere on the Cheney Mansion grounds, where a slew of vendors sold craft items.

Vendor Debbie Clark said she enjoys attending the Apple Festival each year – she has been a vendor

for four to five years – because it is well-organized and publicized, which helps in selling some of her work.

“We have a ceramic shop in Collinsville,” Clark said, “and I work in Wood River … so I’m starting to meet more people up this way.”

The ceramic shop has been open for 36 years, she said, noting she also likes to support the historical aspect of the area. Attending as a vendor helps bring more attention to the site on State Street.

Grafton changes focus on city hall addition

By Bob Crossen Jersey County Journal Although an addition to Grafton City Hall may be off the books for now, public restrooms could be installed at the building as part of a step toward a final addition.

During a meeting Sept. 23, Grafton Police Chief Chris Sullivan said bids for the addition planned for city hall came in greater – at around $150,000 – than had been budgeted for the project – approximately $100,000. The city sought a second round of bids on the project with cheaper fixtures, but those bids returned at around the same price.

The addition would have extended the building and kept its facade so as to be uniform throughout while providing storage space for city hall, office space for the police department and restrooms for the general public.

Grafton City Council has not approved or denied bids from the second round, but did seek bids for restroom installations during its last regular meeting Sept. 23.

“Our biggest issue that we wanted to cover immediately was that of bathrooms, which we were attempting to get in by fall,” Sullivan said.

The bathrooms would be prefabricated – simi-

lar to those found in Maryville – without the need to use electricity, meaning the bathrooms would be seasonal.

The roof of the structure would allow for sunlight to enter the bathrooms which would be located along Main Street by city hall where they would have been otherwise placed with the full addition.

If the city were to find funding for the rest of the addition, Sullivan said the project would not be disturbed by the installation of the public bathroom units for which the city sought bids.

Alderman Jerry Bauersachs amended the motion to include a bid for four total restrooms, two of which would be located at The Grove Memorial Park.

“It’s going to be cheaper to get two of them done at the same time because they’re already going to have their crews here. They’re going to already have their equipment here. They’re going to already have everything they need,” Bauersachs said.

He received hesitation from Mayor Tom Thompson on the issue.

“We want the other money to complete the addition,” Thompson said. “You’re not going to save that much money by saying you’re going to buy two. There’s no sale on them. … I’m not

Log on to dents and teachers needed for instruction and communication, but also because it’s free to us as an educational institution.”

He said Google has continued to expand its offerings, and is getting ready to introduce classroom management programs. The company, which is mostly known for its search website, also provides web-based storage space, and Norman said an announcement was made that the space will soon be unlimited in size.

“We used to provide students 20 megabytes of drive space,” he said, noting Google currently offers 30 gigabytes per student. “The district paid for the storage and we had to maintain the servers and the drives to do that.”

The Technology Tuesday sessions began the second week of June and ran through the end of July. More than one session was held on several Tuesdays.

Around eight teachers attended each session. Norman said he thinks catering the lessons to the teachers’ needs were key to the program’s success. He also said the participation level exemplifies the dedication and excitement the staff has for the evolving education career field.

The district plans to hold Technology Tuesdays again during the coming summer break.

Applications (Continued from A1) giving the state $3.975 million from cultivation center application fees.

The state received 214 applications – three more than its original figure of 211 – to establish dispensaries across the state, anticipating the approval of 60. Just one application was reported for District 18. However, no government in Campbell Publications’ trade area – Greene,

against in the future putting one in Grove Park, but we’ve already discussed that.”

Bauersachs said the motion is specifically to learn the cost of constructing the units, and the council would have to approve the bid for all four to finalize the process.

“It doesn’t say we’re going to build it. When the bids come back then you can say, ‘No, we only want to do city hall.’ I understand all of it, but I do think this would give us a little bit of an insight so we can look at both bids and make some kind of decision,” Bauersachs said.

Thompson said the money set aside for the addition should be accumulated to complete the addition at a later date with the specified plans previously approved by the board.

Alderwoman Flo Rowling said local businesses will likely be pleased by the installation of public restrooms so visitors don’t enter and exit the business purely for restroom use.

Alderwoman Bobbie Amburg voted against the amendment to the motion as well as the resolution authorizing the city to seek bids for the restrooms.

Action is expected to be taken regarding the second round of bids for the city hall addition as well as the prefabricated restrooms during the next regular meeting Oct. 14.

Searching for something to do this weekend?

Technology

(Continued from A1) Participants showed consistent progress in all facets of the lessons, according to Norman. He said many teachers participated in several sessions, and the interest was evenly spread between the technology and instruction strands.

“They were equally interested in learning how to use the technology, as well as use it instruction. Obviously, that was the ultimate goal,” he said.

“As teachers understand the technology, they’re more able to use it in project based learning.”

The classes teachers expressed the most interest in were held more than once, according to Norman, to better cater to the participants’ schedules.

There were also instances of more than one session being held the same day, and even sometimes two sessions going on at once.

There were several courses dedicated to the collection of Google programs used by the district.

Norman said Google’s role in the implementation of technology in the classroom has been integral.

“In what we’re doing, they’re very involved,” he said. “We made a commitment when we started talking about our digital conversion to use Google Apps for Education, both as a means to provide the technology that our stu-

“It doesn’t matter if we’re doing something in the community or if she’s preparing for a competition, she’s always going to give it her best effort,” Goetten said. “She’s a good example for the younger kids.”

Goetten said about eight years ago a member of his FFA program was chosen to be in the FFA National Band, and during his first year at JCHS a member of the program was in the National FFA Chorus.

Goetten also noted that FFA member Betsy Kirbach will receive her national FFA degree during this month’s convention in Louisville.

“It’s always great to have kids accomplish things, whether it be in a contest or FFA Band or Chorus, or just something helping out around home with community service,” Goetten said. “I’m always proud of my kids, whatever they do.”

Goblin Gallop gives early start to Halloween fun

By Robert Lyons Jersey County Journal The lightly wooded area around Dolan City Park will set the mood for an evening jaunt of Halloween fun.

Jerseyville Parks and Recreation Department and Jersey Community Hospital Wellness Center are teaming up for the inaugural Goblin Gallop, a fun run where participants are encouraged to dress in Halloween costumes. The event is scheduled for Oct. 24 at 6 p.m.

“It’s for the whole family, it’s for everyone ages 4 and older,” JPRD Director Angela Sullivan said.

“It’s not specifically for the kids. We’d really like to see families come out and participate together in it.”

The course, which is just a over a mile in length, twists through the park, turns around Wock Family Lake and then heads back through the park.

“It will not be a timed run, it’s just a fun run,” Sullivan said.

Preregistration for the event is required before Oct. 22, and the cost is $5 plus one canned good.

“We wanted to do something good for the community,” Sullivan said. “So, that’s where the canned good donations come in, for our local Salvation Army Food Pantry. We’re going to have a big tub out there.”

Sullivan said JPRD and the Wellness Center partnership has proven successful in the three years they have co-hosted the Junior Triathlon. She said Wellness Center Fitness Coordinator Jen Lyles and herself wanted to do another event.

“We decided to do it for Halloween to give the parents yet another opportunity for their kids to enjoy their Halloween costumes,” Sullivan said.

“We know that some parents put a lot of time, effort and money into them.” Sullivan said.

There was a focus on making the Goblin Gallop

affordable enough for an entire family to participate.

“We wanted to keep it really low cost, just enough to cover our initial expenses,” Sullivan said, adding participation prizes and refreshments will be given out after the run. “We decided not to do T-shirts. Most fun runs have some type of event shirt, but that’s when the cost increases.”

The Goblin Gallop is set for the night before the annual Halloween celebration hosted by the Jerseyville Public Library at Lion’s Club Park, which includes a parade. Sullivan said the two events should complement one another.

“The kids can get out on that Friday night, and then wake up first thing in the morning for a Halloween event, as well,” she said.

Registration forms for the event are available at JPRD, 401 Mound St., Jerseyville or online at jerseyville-il.us/parkrec/forms.htm. For more information contact JPRD at 618-498-2222.

Challenge of the Bluffs Run set for Saturday, Oct. 18 Area health enthusiasts are invited to participate in the 17th Annual Challenge of the Bluffs Run on Saturday, Oct. 18, at 10 a.m. Beginning at 200 West Third Street in front of the Riverbender.com Community Center in Alton, runners will make their way up a scenic and challenging 5-mile route through the Christian Hill and Fairmount neighborhoods and finish on Belle and 4th Street.

As part of the awards ceremony, organizer Alton Main Street will be crowning the “King & Queen

of the Bluffs,” the male and female who make it to the summit first.

The entry fee is $25 per entrant if registration is postmarked by Oct 6 and $30 after. Runners will receive a Tek-shirt, awards in each age division, and entry into the Chili CookOff after the race.

IDNR salutes hunting safety instructors As fall hunting seasons get underway, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) recognizes the contributions of volunteers who teach new hunters proper safety and ethics each year. IDNR Hunter Safety Education classes certified 20,211 hunters in 2013, the second highest total on record. In 2002, instructors certified 21,658 hunters. Safety education classes have been held since 1976, when 14,170 hunters were certified.

“Volunteer instructors are the backbone of the program,” said Jeff Hopkins, IDNR Safety Education Administrator. “They give of themselves to ensure that the public and new hunters receive the information they need to be safe.”

IDNR is fortunate to have more than 1,000 dedicated instructors offering classes statewide.

Fifty-three of those volunteer instructors have 35 years or more of experience teaching hunter safety classes.

“Young hunters are our future, and we are fortunate to have a large number of instructors with many years of service willing to pass on that valuable experience,” said IDNR Director Marc Miller. “These volunteers are a key component that helps us provide safe hunting opportunities, especially for young hunters.”

The Illinois Hunter Education Program consists of a minimum of 10 hours of instruction. These courses cover the basics of hunter responsibility, firearms and ammunition, tree stand safety, field safety, wildlife conservation, management and identification, first aid, archery, muzzleload-

ing, and state regulations. Visit: http://www.dnr. illinois.gov/safety/Pages/HunterSafety.aspx The IDNR Safety Education Program manages a statewide network of certified volunteer instructors who conduct courses in the topics of hunting, boating, trapping and snowmobiling safety.

These courses are focused on educating youth and parents on safe, ethical and responsible participation in their chosen field of recreation.

IDNR encourages all hunters to practice safety this fall. There were no fatal hunting accidents in Illinois in 2013. There were 26 accidents reported in 2013 with 10 involving the discharge of a firearm and 16 accidents related to falls. Summaries of hunting incidents for the past four years can be found here: http://www.dnr.illinois.gov/safety/ Pages/IncidentReportSummaries.aspx.

Old Settlers Days kicks off Saturday

By Bob Crossen Jersey County Journal For the 34th year, Kampsville will be home to Old Settlers Days where teepees and tents will fill the riverside.

The weekend event is a celebration of 1800s-style living with live music, demonstrations and re-enactments of period events.

Demonstrations include the making of soap and building of bows along with a host of wood working stations.

Some portions of the area will have encampments similar to those set up during the Civil War where

settlers will be dressed in that style of garb and periodically fire cannons across the Illinois River.

There will be games and activities for children, including face painting, pedal cars and a play area while parents can visit the craft booths or enjoy food made fresh at the event. Homemade root beer will make a return this year, along with turkey legs and buffalo burgers.

Admission for the event is free with plenty of parking and handicap accessibility.

Election season getting hot The Issue: Less than a month before Election Day Our View: Still plenty of time to get involved

Publisher and Editor: Julie Boren

T

publisher@campbellpublications.net

he signs dotting the front lawns up and down the streets of Jerseyville began springing up well over a month ago, and they seem to be multiplying. The mailed card stock campaign propaganda is now arriving on a daily basis. It is clear; election season is in full force.

This year, residents can register to vote up to and including the day of the election. In previous years, the deadline would have already passed. So, between early voting, absentee voting and basically no registration deadline, there is no excuse for not voting this year.

With so many issues being debated by our county board, there are definitely plenty of reasons to cast a ballot. Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (PTELL), public transportation, government building security and a bevy of other issues will be decided by those elected Nov. 4.

Making a prediction on who will be sworn into office after this election would be a gamble. Often it is the squeaky wheel that gets the grease, and in this case that could amount to whoever has the most political signs out on front lawns has the most support. As of now – without actually canvassing the county and tallying the signs – there seems to be a pretty even amount of backing for the candidates in contested races.

It is clear residents are interested in the local political scene.

It is vital for both political parties to mobilize their supporters, and get people to the polls.

No matter the outcome, it is voter turnout that is important.

County Clerk Steve Pohlman said he would love to see a 75 percent voter turnout. If that happens, then the voters will have truly spoken.

Woman or machine R

ecently, a friend of mine called me and told me that she wasn’t feeling very good, her blood pressure dropped to a low 88/54. She was going to go to the hospital but she had to finish cleaning the house first, get supper in the crock pot and take care of the animals. The problem is, I didn’t bat an eye or see anything wrong with it. We both started laughing hysterically. My husband thought we were crazy because she wasn’t rushing to the emergency room.

Women are built to multi-task.

If we weren’t, then who would take care of the household? Sorry men, I know you are jumping on board at times, and we appreciate it, believe me, but doing one load of laundry for the entire day just doesn’t compare.

Without hesitation, women typically do five chores in the morning before anyone goes to work or school.

When we leave for work, our mind is still creating lists of things that need to be accomplished at home.

The fun never stops. During lunch break we run errands, and after work the same. Before our head hits the pillow at night we possibly have done seven or more chores by slumber time. The cycle continues the next day. The sad thing is we don’t realize what machines we are.

Women are amazing machines that keep going. We can run a household like a business, have a career, go to school, and even allow play time

for ourselves.

Guest We cannot be Column replaced but are forced to by lori slow down dunse when we get run down. No one tells us to stop or slow down; we just keep on until the engine blows.

No one bothered to check our engine light.

Too often we take our health for granted and ignore symptoms of ailments. Ignoring that engine light is easy until we fall into devastating blows of misfortune when something does bring us down to our knees. Since so many depend on us, I think we need to take the initiative to be more focused on our health and teach responsibilities to other family members. Pay attention to the signals our body alerts us to before the check engine light comes on. Don’t ignore your low or high blood pressure. If your tire was low, would you wait until it’s flat? You have a cold from three weeks ago and the condition is not going away, that’s another signal to check that engine light.

Ladies, make your health a priority just like your daily routine. No one will take care of you, but you.

Who do you think will take care of your family or your dream job if you’re gone?

your views Josh Evans represents home field advantage TO THE EDITOR: Home field advantage is a familiar sports term. That concept is also applicable to other situations. The voters of Jersey County have an opportunity to apply it in the upcoming November election. The 100th legislative district includes Jacksonville on the north and Jerseyville on the south. During my 45 years as a lawyer in Jerseyville, I have represented at one time or another nearly every governmental entity in the county. Only Tom Ryder has provided us that home field advantage in times of need. Now we have an opportunity to gain it back. Jersey County voters need to vote for Josh Evans and bring back to this county someone who gives our area his full attention and top priority. All of us are familiar with governmental red tape. When Tom Ryder represented this district he did not hesitate to lend an ear to local issues and help our local government officials cut through all that red tape. I know and have worked with Josh. I am confident that he will not be controlled by any special interest group and he will look out for our best interest. He is intelligent, hardworking, moral and willing to listen. Forget your party affiliations, put one of us in the legislature. Vote for Josh Evans!

Takes responsibility for resolution error

of slipping on that metaphorical banana peel that waits for us all. In 2005, the Jersey County Clerk, Mr. Pohlman’s predecessor, accepted the petition filing of a certain local circuit judge. Unfortunately, the judge was required by Illinois election law to file with the Illinois Board of Elections, not the local county clerk.

Was fraud or incompetence involved in the matter? No. The county clerk at that time was a seasoned professional who operated at a normally high level of efficiency and effectiveness, but the clerk and designated election authority for Jersey County erred in accepting the filing, which resulted in the candidate being left off the ballot and forced to conduct a write-in campaign. Mistakes will happen.

Without excessively beating this horse, I apologize for the error, but more importantly for the unwarranted accusations and brickbats thrown at Steve Pohlman and Jerry Wittman by some seeking momentary political advantage. Gone are the days that facts are checked before accusations are thrown and questions are asked for the purpose of gleaning some information. Had I received a call asking about the document discrepancy, I would have conducted the search and the results would have cleared things up, but then there would have been no headline in the newspaper.

Avoid opinions, do research on PTELL TO THE EDITOR: On April 2, 2014 the Jersey County Tax Study Group issued a report to the Jersey County Board on the effects of Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (PTELL). The tax study group contained individuals representative of local government, education, business, finance, agriculture and property owners from within Jersey County. The group spent over a year reviewing aspects of PTELL including the history, impact in other counties and the potential impact on Jersey County. In its report, the Jersey County Tax Study Group advised the Jersey County Board not to place PTELL on the ballot. The report reflects the conclusion of its majority that PTELL is arguably not a good solution or, at best, is a problematic solution.

On Nov. 4, voters will be asked an advisory ballot question whether or not the Jersey County Board should officially place the PTELL question on the ballot. This is a serious matter that may have a major impact on local government services in the future. I urge all Jersey County residents to do your “homework,” avoid opinions, and gather the facts surrounding PTELL, ensuring you are well informed prior to Nov. 4.

Tell EPA to Ditch the Rule TO THE EDITOR: In April, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers published a proposed rule which will change the nature and scope of federal regulation of water under the Clean Water Act. Keep in mind, Congress has not changed the Clean Water Act, the definition of “waters of the U.S.” to mean navigable waters, nor have they granted any other new jurisdictional authority to the EPA or Corps. The agencies, through rule making, are undertaking a vast land grab in the name of “clean’ water.”

The proposed rule would significantly expand the scope of waters subject to Clean Water Act jurisdiction by regulating small and remote waters many of which are not even wet or considered waters under any common understanding of that word.

Expanding the current definition of “waters of the U.S.” to include ephemeral streams, isolated wetlands, and waters not connected with a navigable water will subject vast areas across the country to regulation under the Clean Water Act for the first time.

In the agricultural community, Farm Bureau has lead efforts to cause the federal agencies to withdraw this contentious rule. This rule, however, will not just affect agriculture. If the rule goes into effect, it will cut a swath across all aspects of property use by homeowners, building and road contractors, local governments, businesses, and farmers.

U of I Extension marks 100 years

By JUSTIN A. COBB Jersey County Journal This year marked 100 years of service to local communities through the University of Illinois Extension program.

The University Extension program was founded nationally in 1914 with the passage of the Smith-Lever Act, which appropriated federal money to the states to enact and maintain university Extension programs, according to Amanda Cole, Extension director for Unit 18, speaking by phone Sept. 25.

U of I Extension Unit 18 encompasses Christian, Jersey, Macoupin, and Montgomery counties.

“The act was initiated to designate one landgrant university in each state” to run the extension program, Terri Miller, Unit 18 publicity and promotions specialist, said by phone Sept. 25.

The goal of the program was to bring rapid advances in academic research, particularly pertaining to agriculture and home economics, to the general public in ways individuals could apply the new knowledge and technology to their everyday lives, according to Miller.

“At that time, a lot of changes were happening in agriculture and in the home environment. By bringing that education to people sometimes literally out in the field, it was a good opportunity to work through universities in each state to deliver that research,” Miller said.

The early 20th century was a major period of upheaval of the geopolitical status quo, both domestically and internationally, and Miller credits the Extension programs with having helped the United States emerge as the world leader it became during that crucial period.

“We were starting to come into our own as a country, and what it took to move us to the next level and becoming a leader was we had to lead within,” which the country did through the Extension program, Miller said.

Massive changes in technology and society have taken place since the signing of the SmithLever Act. U of I Extension has continuously adapted to those changes, all the while staying true to its basic mission of bringing resources and education to the general public, according to Aaron N. Dufelmeier, Unit 15 Extension director, speaking by phone Sept. 25.

Unit 15 covers the counties of Calhoun, Cass, Greene, Morgan, and Scott.

“In the early 1900s, we served a very high population involved in home economics and agriculture. That focus still exists, but (the size of) the agricultural community is smaller, even while production has grown,” Dufelmeier said.

Cole said she sees a greater focus on economic development, which “was not part of the original model in 1914,” she said.

“Some of the basic things are still there, such as the need for safe food, but we now have a lot of opportunity to work with small business owners and local government, growing leadership and dealing with tighter budgets,” Cole said.

Dufelmeier attested to just how quickly and dramatically things have changed in just the past nearly two decades with the explosion of the information age.

“In the late ‘90s, early 2000’s, our office was still on dialup. Only one person at a time in the office could get on it. It’s amazing how dependent we are today on everyone having access all the time,” Dufelmeier said.

Computer technology has become incorporated into the extension’s educational programs, especially youth programs. For example, 4-H participants are now required to develop and present a multimedia presentation on their projects, according to Dufelmeier.

4-H offerings have likewise become more STEM, or “science, technology, engineering, and mathematics,” oriented, with the introduction of robotics clubs and science camps, according to Cole.

“Schools are teaching the basics, and we’re bringing in the applied experience. Schools have limited hours and limited budget, can’t provide a robotics kit for each child,” Cole said.

“Schools are doing a good job trying to deliver programs. We have a critical need for professionals in STEM. Anything we can do as Extension to help support that key component of global success, we can do that,” Miller said.

Despite its adaptability, the Extension faces its share of challenges, one being the demographic shift over the past 100 years toward urbanization.

“In every state with a significant urban population, we make a concerted dedicated effort to serving those populations,” Earl Bricker, Unit 14 Extension director, said by phone Sept. 25.

Unit 14 encompasses the counties of Adams,

Brown, Hancock, Pike, and Schuyler.

Programs for urban populations include “existing youth programs branching out beyond 4-H or expanding the definition of 4-H to include robotics, technology. It’s not just cows and plows,” Bricker said.

On the other hand, the big concern for the more rural Extension units may be the other side of the equation, the reduction of rural population, according to Bricker.

“The effect on us may be as our population is getting smaller, with people moving out or getting older, coverage of units may go from five counties to ten,” for example, Bricker said.

Funding, too, is a major challenge.

“Things are tight, and they’re not going to change anytime soon, especially in Illinois. We need to be paying close attention to do what we can with limited resources,” Bricker said.

“The budget we’re operating on would dip into reserves just to cover costs. Last year we definitely spent more money than we brought in.

We can do it for a few years because we have reserves, but it’s responsible to have a few months to cover,” he said.

Despite these challenges, Extension leaders find the work immensely rewarding and hold out optimism for a better future.

“Future priorities will differ by units. Our unit, in identifying economic development to be hot button issues, we are finding more opportunities to work with businesses and government to help find ways (for them) to save funds while providing services at the same level or higher,” Cole said.

“I’ve been here nine-and-a-half years, before and after the 2008 recession. It’s just great to see how we were able to adapt, reorganize, and come out stronger,” she added.

“I am very excited about what I’m doing with the extension program. When you see those people you serve, making a difference in their life, that’s what Extension to me is about,” Miller said.

As one might expect with an organization striving to bring the best out in others, the Extension’s celebration of its centennial has been decidedly low-key.

“We had some news releases recognizing the 100 year celebration, as well as some brochures, pens, coffee cups,” Dufelmeier said.

LETTERS (continued from A4) Implementation of the rule would impose direct costs, delays, and uncertainty in planning. Likewise, Illinois’ municipal governments and other jurisdictions such as towns, villages, counties, townships, drainage districts, water districts, irrigation systems, transportation departments, and municipal utilities will be profoundly impacted by the shift from state and local control of waterrelated land uses to federal control.

This proposed rule will give the federal government power over what were once local and state land use rules. When federal agencies have the power to grant, deny or veto a federally enforceable permit to build, plant, fence, apply fertilizer or spray pesticide or disease control products on land managed by farmers, businesses, and municipalities, that is regulatory authority over land

use. The federal government has no business regulating land use.

It is time for the U.S. EPA to withdraw their proposed waters of the U.S. rule—it’s time to Ditch the Rule. Contact your county farm bureau for more information.

The long journey East My family and I started on that long journey Eastward on a very hot and muggy Thursday. We fought traffic in Akron, Ohio, endured an impaired driver on the slope of Mt. Jewitt, Pa., and listened to endless hours of radio. We ate lunch at Cracker Barrel, breakfasted at the local McDonalds in Vandalia, and ate a quick snack at Mom’s before turning in for the night. Through it all, I saw the landscape slope, then become hilly, then become quite mountainous as the Adirondacks of Northern Pennsylvania rose into the sky. I wondered, “How did the pioneers make such a trip?” It could not have been very easy.

I’ve been doing a lot of research into the 1750s, and it is quite fascinating to look at back then compared to modern day. Back then, state lines had yet to be drawn on any map.

In fact, we hadn’t even become a country yet as we were just entering the French and Indian War (the last one) that kicked France out of Canada when England emerged the victor. The waterways, particularly the St. Lawrence Seaway (then the St. Lawrence River) and the Hudson River, as well as the Allegheny, the Monongahela, and the Ohio were the super highways of their time.

There were no roads, and little in the way of maps. The armies that moved (at two miles a day) had to make their own roads through the dense woods and follow guides (whom they hoped were honest men) just to get where they were going in some degree of safety. The Thirteen American Colonies were located along the coasts, hemmed in by the mountains that stretched the length of North America. No one had even seen beyond those mountains yet.

They were the Frontier! Places such as Pittsburgh, Pa., were the frontiers of their day.

It’s been about a year since I made a trip back East to the rugged mountains of Northern Pennsylvania, and I can tell you that, not only is the landscape much different than that of Northern Illinois, so is the climate. I noticed that the terrible heat and humidity we have suffered under for more than a week is gone and in its place is 70 degree weather, definitely normal for autumn. Thun-

derstorms even Guest are different here, though, Column over the years,

by Heidi the area has sported a few moore tornadoes: Kane, Pa., and in Coudersport, Pa., on two separate occasions. The other noted difference, though not too noticeable at first, is the lack of huge farms in Northern Pennsylvania. We have farms here, but on those farms are sheep, some cattle, pigs, and horses. Long farms stretching off into the horizon are a rarity here. It is a sight I am so accustomed to seeing across Illinois and Indiana that I almost take the production of our nation’s food for granted.

Autumn is setting in here in Pennsylvania. The nights are becoming cooler, the days wetter, and the daylight hours shorter. It is a sure sign that winter is soon to follow.

Very soon the deep, green mountains of Pennsylvania will light up with the colors and smells of autumn.

Maple syrup, long walks, deer sightings, and maybe an elk or a bear sighting are what I would like to see the most. I would like to take the Excursion Train out of Wellsboro, Pa., and see the wildlife or maybe take the dinner train and eat a really yummy meal outside that I did not have to cook. Mostly I would just like to see my grandmother (who is 83) and my mother and spend time with them. My grandmother is in the autumn of her life now, and I want to spend as much time as possible with her before the winter sets in.

This year, if you are traveling, first of all, watch out for impaired drivers on mountains in the dark!

But, after that, embrace the challenge. I used to think Illinois was the new frontier, but since then, I have traveled to California, Missouri, and the Ozarks. I have found that the frontiers are what you make of them.

They do not have to be some far away place. They can be closer to home than you realize or as far away as your deepest dreams.

Enjoy the trip. It is the journey that makes it all worthwhile.

Goldenrod showboat fundraiser rakes in $15k

By Bob Crossen Jersey County Journal The first in a series of fundraisers has brought the Goldenrod showboat into the public eye as part of a mission to bring it to the St. Louis waterfront after renovations.

Jake Medford, Goldenrod volunteer and restoration effort worker, said the fundraiser held Sept. 25 raised $15,000 through donations at the event and some private donors. He said the exposure was a good step forward for the restoration project.

“We met a lot of new people and great contacts to definitely expand the [Historic Riverboat Preservation Association] organization,” Medford said. “There were a few there that had been following our progress all along. … One of them told me it’s the best-kept secret in St. Louis, and that they’d love to see the Goldenrod showboat back.”

He said there will be one fundraiser per month for the remainder of the year as the HRPA tries to reach a goal of paying off mooring fees on the historic water vessel.

The Goldenrod showboat is one of two surviving showboats in the country, but it floats derelict in the Illinois River on the bank of Kampsville, where it has accrued years of mooring costs.

Pool 24, the company that moored the boat, won it in an auction last fall and has worked with HRPA based in St. Louis as the nonprofit organization works to restore the boat. “[Pool 24] have been so generous. They’ve been so great to us – they really have – allowing the boat to stay

there. So any money that comes in goes directly to them until we’re settled up,” Medford said.

Medford said the U.S. Coast Guard has inspected the vessel to learn what aspects of the restoration should take the highest priority, noting the hull of the Goldenrod has taken that honor.

He said the decision will come down to repairing the hull on the boat or replacing it entirely by lifting the whole boat out of the water and dropping it into a fresh metal hull.

“We’re leaning toward replacing the entire hull, but that would mean literally picking the boat up and putting it into another steel barge,” Medford said. “So that’s going to be done with professional movers and that’s going to cost quite a bit of money.”

The hull repair is the highest priority to ensure the boat will not sink when HRPA makes its eventual step toward moving the boat to the St. Louis waterfront.

But he said there is still plenty of regular maintenance work to be done on the vessel regularly to ensure it is not falling apart on the riverbank in Kampsville. That work, he said, is conducted by volunteers for whom the HRPA is always searching.

Those interested in joining the restoration effort can do so by visiting the Goldenrod Showboat Facebook page where there is contact information for members for HRPA. Medford said potential volunteers can call him at 618-535-6751.

More information on the project and frequent updates about the status of the vessel can be found on the boat’s Facebook page.

Health department prepares for flu season

By Robyn Johnson Campbell Publications As flu season approaches, the Jersey County Health Department is striving to control the influenza virus by offering flu vaccination clinics to both children and adults.

“The flu is very easily transmitted. It’s in the air, with people coughing and sneezing. You definitely want to protect yourself by getting the vaccination,” Heidi Carter, communicable disease coordinator at the Jersey County Health Department, said.

Since the 1918 flu pandemic, which killed more than 625,000 people in the United States alone, according to the U.S. Department of Health, the medical science world has been developing vaccinations to protect people from the virus.

Flu clinics to provide immu-

nization to the virus are being offered by the health department every Friday, in addition to regular Tuesday clinics for adults.

For those unable to stop by on these dates, the health department accepts walk-ins, as well, while also catering to a variety of individual needs.

“If you come to the clinic and you have someone who has a hard time getting out of the vehicle, we can go out to the car to make it easier for them. We also do flu shots at the home for people that have a hard time making it here,” Carter said.

The process of receiving a flu vaccination is simple and straightforward. After filling out a series of paperwork and insurance information, patrons are able to receive their vaccination and continue on their way. The health department also offers flu shots to the unin-

While all ages are at risk of catching influenza, children and the elderly are most susceptible to the virus, and getting an annual flu vaccine is the single best way to protect against the flu. Carter specifically emphasized the importance of receiving the vaccination every year.

“We do recommend that you get vaccinated yearly, because the vaccinations can change each year,” Carter said.

The influenza vaccine is examined annually and is often altered and updated, depending on how the virus has changed. Because of the varying consistency of the virus, as well as the body’s declining response to the immunization over time, the health department advises the public to take advantage of the flu clinics every year.

WellSpring Resources goes tobacco-free in Alton, Jerseyville As of Oct. 1, WellSpring Resources’ Alton office, Jerseyville office, apartments and group homes will be tobacco-free campuses. Chief Executive Officer Karen SopronyiTompkins hopes that this policy change will make a positive impact on both its consumers and staff members.

“It is our responsibility as a community healthcare provider to model healthy practices and policy,” Sopronyi-Tompkins said. “Our tobacco-free policy is an extension of the many other policies we have in place to ensure our employees, consumers and visitors are safe and healthy when they come to our facil-

ities.”

As part of the smoke-free initiative, smoking tobacco products or electronic cigarettes will be prohibited on all properties owned or managed by WellSpring Resources, including parking lots. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), cigarette smoking kills more than 480,000 Americans each year, and more than 41,000 of those deaths are caused by exposure to secondhand smoke. The CDC also states that tobacco use is the single largest preventable cause of death and disease in the United States.

“Creating a tobacco-free campus

will be a fresh start for our agency and our affiliates,” Sopronyi-Tompkins said. “We have not asked any of our consumers or employees to quit using tobacco products, but we have asked them to not use these products on our properties. We have also provided several resources for those who use this transition as an

opportunity to quit.”

School Board Seats To Be Filled Jersey Community Unit School District No. 100 will have three (3) school board seats to be filled at the April 7, 2015 Consolidated Election. Candidates who are elected will fill four-year terms expiring in April 2019.

Candidates for the office of school board can begin to circulate nominating petitions for signatures beginning September 23, 2014. The period for filing nominating papers runs from December 15 through December 22, 2014.

Those duties will now be handled by the county clerk. Candidates for school board will not be filing any paperwork at the local district.

The county clerk may have petition forms available or blank petitions may be downloaded from the State Board of Elections website: http:// www.elections.il.gov/.

Candidates may also want to consult the “2015 Candidate’s Guide,” which can be downloaded from the State Board of Elections website, or contact the county clerk regarding the requirements of filing.

As in the past, tables will be set up in The Commons with information about financial aid, academic advising, career and transfer programs, and oncampus bachelor’s and master’s degree opportunities.

“The Open House at Lewis and Clark is an excellent opportunity for potential students, parents and community members to see what the college has to offer,” said L&C Vice President of Enrollment Services Kent Scheffel. “Coordinators from the academic programs will be available to answer questions, and there will be tours of the campus. Financial aid and enrollment information will also be available.”

For the fourth year the Open House will be held on a Sunday to make the event more convenient for future students and their parents.

“Fall Open House at Lewis and Clark Community College is a great opportunity for area high school students and their parents to visit with coordinators from career and general education programs,” said Delfina Dornes, Director of Enrollment and Advising.

Students will also be able to discover the financial aid options available to them, because L&C financial aid representatives will be available to help students understand the process funding their education.

“When students make a decision to go to college, most are looking for ways to fund their education,” said L&C Director of Financial Aid Angela Weaver. “A first step toward educational funding is applying for federal student aid. An important tip for students, in addition to applying early, is returning all required documents within the time requested to insure timely processing and availability of their financial aid awards.”

Attendees will be eligible to participate to win prize giveaways during the Open House. There will also be free refreshments.

Karen Mathews Karen Mathews, 72, of Eureka, Ill., died at 3 p.m. at Barnes Jewish Hospital in Saint Louis Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2014.

Karen was born to Jack and Lois Holmes on Feb. 19, 1942 in Rock Island. She was the oldest of five children, and was soon followed by her three brothers, Jack (Judy) Holmes, Jr. of Jerseyville, Jeff (Marilyn) Holmes of Villa Grove, Brent (Kathy) Holmes of Mattoon, and one sister, Jane (Jim) Locascio of Lisle. She attended school at Villa Grove High, and worked with her father for the Villa Grove newspaper. After graduating high school, she worked at a family-owned restaurant called The Colony House in Wisconsin, where she met and married Douglas H. Mathews on Oct. 5, 1961. He died Nov. 28, 2010.

The couple had two sons before they permanently relocated to Illinois, Dewar Mathews of Eureka and Douglas (Kristen Weber) Mathews of Belleville. Their final son David (Heidi Bishop) Mathews arrived after their move to Illinois.

Karen thoroughly enjoyed being a homemaker, watching her children’s swim meets, and vacationing every year at New Smyrna Beach in Florida. Her and her husband also traveled to countries across the world, including France, Greece, Costa Rica, Brazil, Switzerland, and numerous others. When they were not traveling, Karen and Doug could be found socializing with their many good friends. She was later blessed with six grandchildren, Tyler, Jeneca, Lynae, Luke, Ashton and Meghan.

In her free time, Karen enjoyed gardening, listening to oldies, volunteering at the food pantry, golfing, and spending time with her grandchildren. She was considered by her family and friends to be a strong, selflessly compassionate woman who loved like no other. Emily Dickinson once wrote, “Unable are the loved to die. For love is immortality.” As she was loved deeply and widely by all who knew her, it goes without saying that Karen will remain immortal in the many lives she touched.

Visitation was at the Argo-Ruestman-Harris Funeral Home on Sunday, Oct. 5, from 4 to 7 p.m. A prayer service was held at 3:45 p.m. prior to the visitation.

Funeral services were held in her home church of St. Luke’s Catholic Church in Eureka at 10 a.m. Oct. 6.

Father Eugene Radosevich officiated.

Burial followed at Olio Township Cemetery in Eureka.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to St Luke’s Catholic Church or the Eureka Food Pantry.

Online condolences may be directed to the family at www. argoruestmanharris.com.

Journal NOTES What’S Happening

Emergency Preparedness Workshop Oct. 9

The American Red Cross is collaborating with the Illinois Department of Public Health’s (IDPH) Disability and Health Program and Centers for Independent Living throughout Illinois to provide training for caregivers of people with disabilities on how to be better equipped for emergencies by developing an emergency plan and emergency kit.

The free workshop will cover the importance of being prepared for emergencies, as well as the steps that should be taken if you are forced to stay in your home during a disaster and if you must take shelter at another location. The two-hour training will provide specific tips for people with different disabilities and needs.

Resources also will be provided to assist in creating custom emergency plans and kits. Take advantage of this free training at the JCH Wellness Center Thursday, Oct. 9 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. For more information or to register call 618-498-3500.

little bit of everything

Gary Pflum looks over two rather interesting pieces of equipment on display Sunday morning during the Ill-Mo Tractor and Engine Club Swap Meet held on the grounds of Hazel Dell in Jerseyville. The club holds two swap meets a year which gives members an opportunity to trade out or sell their unwanted engine and tractor parts. This is the eighth year Hazel Dell has been host to the swap meet.

Hazel Dell hosts its agricultural swap meet

By Carmen Ensinger Jersey County Journal The grounds of historic Hazel Dell, on the south end of Jerseyville, was filled with a variety of small engines and tons and tons of parts as members of the Ill-Mo Tractor and Engine Club gathered Sunday morning for their annual swap meet.

The Illinois-Missouri Tractor and Engine Club is a group of individuals who share a love of tractors and engines, and each fall they hold what they call the Poehling Memorial Swap Meet and Fall Meeting, named after the founder of the club, Bill Poehling, who died several years ago.

Poehling founded the club around 1973 and it has been going strong ever since, bringing together people who collect old engines, old tractors and other various antique farm implements.

“We are just a bunch of people who have a love of machinery and tinkering with machines,” President Gary Pflum said. “A lot of our members have agricultural backgrounds or they remember their parents or grandparents working with these items and it is a way to stay connected.”

In fact, members travel all over to various shows and events to try to help keep the past alive.

“We take them to the various shows around the country and help to educate the public on what farming was like before the modern day farming methods were established,” Pflum said. “One of our goals is to keep the way of farming back in the day alive in the minds of today’s generation.”

One of the biggest events they attend is the Festival of Little Hills in St. Charles.

“We might see 300,000 people come by us, and a lot of these people have no idea what this equipment is or what it was used for,” Pflum said.

“They have no idea what rural life was like back in the late 1800s and early 1900s before electricity was on the market. We usually spend the whole day running our engines and talking to everyone and answering their questions.”

While it might sound like a seem-

ingly impossible endeavor to obtain vintage tractors and their parts, it’s actually quite easy.

“We are always asking our friends and acquaintances if they have or know of anyone who has any old engines or tractors, or we sometimes might find one at an auction,” Pflum said. “You might buy a couple old tractors and make one tractor out of them but you have a lot of parts left over so you sell the parts to someone who needs them. That is where our swap meet comes in – bring those and perhaps that one person who is looking for a specific item will walk past your collection.”

There are books and websites that can help identify the specific parts, but Pflum said one tends to just learn as they go.

“Everyone has their own specialty,” he said. “One person might like one type of engine and another person a different type. Or, one person might like John Deere tractors while someone else prefers to collect International. When you go to these meetings or events, you are talking to people and you learn something from them. Every time you show up you are going to learn something.”

The Club called the Victorian Festival, which was held on the grounds of Hazel Dell over the Labor Day weekend for more than a decade, home for many years and Pflum said he saw a trend.

“People who have never seen these engines work or been around them are amazed that something so simple can do so much work on the old engines and tractors invented 100 years ago,” he said. “They are interested in how they made them work either because they remember it or they have heard their parents or grandparents talk about it.”

A mechanic by trade, it was Pflum’s grandfather who got him interested in engines.

“The first engine I got was bought brand new by my grandfather up in northern Missouri, and that is kind of what got me started,” he said. “It is a Root and Vandervort and was made up in East Moline. Collecting engines and tractors is a lot like eating potato chips. You get one and then you want to go back and get another one – it’s addicting.”

With a membership of around 220, Pflum said the club is working on getting some younger members interested in joining.

“The one thing we have talked about at our steering committee meetings is different ways to get the younger kids involved,” he said.

“Recently, we have had some young people join our club and that’s great because it helps us older guys. We know how to run the club, but it really helps to have the younger guys here to help.”

The club holds two swap meets a year, one in the spring in Missouri and one in the fall in Illinois. For the past eight years, Hazel Dell has been home to the swap meet. This year the club was honoring member Fred Nolan, who was very involved in engines and tractors of all kinds. Fred died last year, but his wife, Brenda, is still active in promoting the club.

“Fred and I both looked forward to hosting this event,” said Brenda Nolan. “It’s always the first Sunday in October and it’s a chance to meet with friends and swap engines or parts or whatever. This year our president invited the Tri-County Antique Club to join us and they could bring things and sell them without charge.

There is never any gate admission and it’s just a nice day in the country for those who come.”

Pflum certainly agrees it is a great time for visiting with friends.

“I think these swap meets have become another excuse for us to get together,” he said. “Over the years, it has really developed into more of a social club. We all know each other and we like to get together and talk.

It’s really nice to be in some other state and run across one of your club members who has also gone there.”

Their biggest fundraiser comes in January at what they like to call their “Icebox Auction.”

“Basically, this is a time when people can bring the items they haven’t sold at the various shows they have been to throughout the year,” Plfum said. “They donate these items to the club and we auction it off in St. Peters and the money all goes to the club. It’s a good fundraiser and by the fall people are tired of dragging their stuff around and are ready to get rid of it.

Natural fertilizers loaded with nutrients and minerals Lawn and garden enthusiasts know a handful of items are essential to maintain a healthy landscape.

Water, sunshine and the proper nutrients all work in concert to promote a healthy lawn. Although nutritional material is inherent in the soil, many gardeners feel soil must be amended with some sort of fertilizer to give plants a healthy boost.

All-natural fertilizers are growing in popularity, and home gardeners have a variety of such products at their disposal. Ambitious homeowners can even create their own allnatural fertilizers from items around the house. Organic fertilizers, or those that are derived from living organisms and not manufacturered through chemicals, can provide sufficient nutrients and minerals to grow healthy plants.

Bone meal In order to store energy and reach maturity, plants need phosphate. This mineral is released over a long period of time from finely ground rock.

However, a faster way to supply it to the landscape is through bone meal.

Bone meal is a mixture of finely and coarsely ground animal bones that are a waste product from meatprocessing plants. Adding bone meal to soil is one of the most effective ways to increase phosphorous levels.

Manure The waste from herbivores (animals that feed on grass), including rabbits, horses and cows, can make super fertilizers. Some gardeners shy away from manure because they believe it to be an odoriferous, dirty product. The best produced manures are allowed to compost for at least nine months and are mixed with hay or straw. They should not produce an offensive odor and will provide plants with a host of nutrients. Never use manures from meat-eating animals, like dogs, cats or humans.

Feces can harbor a lot of bacteria, which can be transfered to the garden soil.

Fish and seaweed Improving soil nutrients may be as simple as looking to the ocean or other bodies of water. Fish emulsion, a mixture of ground fish and water, is a good nitrogen source. Nitrogen gives plants the energy to grow. Seaweed, which is actually a type of algae, contains the primary nutrients that plants need in order to thrive,

including phosphorous, nitrogen and potassium. It also serves as a food for natural bacteria that break down nutrients into the soil, making them easier for plants to absorb.

Compost Compost can also be used as fertilizer. Gardeners can make their own compost from discarded materials.

Compost is one of the most widely used soil amendments in vegetable gardens. Yard refuse, fruit and vegetable peelings, eggshells, coffee grounds, and other items can be

added to a compost pile. Natural bacteria will slowly break down these materials into a product dubbed "black gold." Compost can be mixed into soil before planting and used as a dressing after plants have been established.

Gardeners can experiment with different ratios of fertilizer to create a mix that enhances the soil. Test the soil to determine which, if any, nutrients the soil is lacking so the fertilizer can be adjusted accordingly.

FOOTBALL

Jersey captures 23-21 thriller over state-ranked Waterloo on road

By DAN BRANNAN Jersey County Journal The Jersey Community High Panthers won a football thriller 23-21 over highly state-ranked Waterloo football team this past Friday at Waterloo.

Panthers’ kicker Ryan Herkert split the uprights with a 20-yard field goal with 31 seconds remaining for the victory.

Jersey coach Dave Jacobs said his team was resilient once again.

“We got off to a good start in the game, but they took the momentum from us in the third quarter,” he said. “We made some plays at the end to get it. Once again I was proud of the boys; they never quit

and played every down.”

In the beginning, Jersey jumped ahead 14-0 in the first quarter with 3- and 20-yard runs by quarterback Jacob Varble.

Herkert added the extra points. In the third quarter, Waterloo responded with 14 unanswered points and the game was knotted 14-14 at the end of three periods.

In the fourth, Brandon Baalman ran for a 3-yard touchdown with 8:17 to go, but the point after failed. Waterloo’s Max Jennings ran for a 5-yard touchdown with 5:53 left and the point after was good, giving Waterloo a 21-20 lead.

Jersey’s Whitey Kennedy picked off the ball for an interception with about 4 minutes to go and also had a nice return.

The Panthers then controlled the clock and got in position for the field goal. The game came all the way down to the wire when Herkert booted the three-point field goal.

The win against Waterloo was crucial for the Panthers to have a playoff bid.

“We need three more wins and know it is possible,” Jacobs said. “We have to play better, but it is there for the taking if we play well.”

Individually, Jacobs said he thought Kennedy had an exceptional game on defense against Waterloo. Baalman also ran the ball well for the Panthers, the coach added.

He also cited Christian Kimble,

Michael Lorton and Nick Howell for their defensive play.

Mostly, Jacobs just singled out his team for its overall performance last Friday.

“We are playing a lot of young kids and we have good senior leadership from Varble and Howell,” he added. “I am really proud of Varble and Nick Howell.

Howell has risen to being a dominant player on the field as a lineman on both sides and just loves football. He is a tough kid and is also a wrestler. He always goes hard and has a big heart.”

Baalman had 30 yards on four carries and three receptions for 67 yards. Kimble had three catches for 37 yards.

The 4-2 overall Panthers return home

this Friday for a Mississippi Valley Conference matchup against 4-2 Triad.

Triad has lost two in a row coming in to Highland and Mascoutah. Triad is a run-oriented team and will be physical against the Panthers.

“Our team is just so exciting,” Jacobs said. “I am really enjoying our kids this year. We play really hard. They trust their technique and play with a lot of heart, passion and persistence and listen as we believe we are going to win and play hard every play. Our guys didn’t back down to Waterloo even though they were undefeated, ranked in the state and it was homecoming. I am just really proud of the players and the coaches.”

Jersey’s Sydney Hagen close to perfect Soccer team remembers in her serves; inspiration for teammates those affected by breast cancer

By DAN BRANNAN Jersey County Journal When one considers the difficulty of serving over a volleyball net each and every time, Sydney Hagen’s success rate of 219 of 221 serves seems nearly impossible.

For the season, the Lady Panthers’ Hagen has been accurate on 99.09 of her serves. The most eye-opening statistic is she served accurately 146 straight times as the season started. Hagen’s serve accuracy places her close to the top of all players in the St. Louis region.

Bob Siemer, Jersey volleyball coach, said Hagen just has a good, hard serve and takes a lot of pride in it.

“Her goal is to be our all-time serve percentage leader,” Siemer said. “Jade Linden is our alltime service point leader with 93 percent. Last year, Sydney had a 96-point percentage in her serves and she has been 99 percent so far this year.”

It is not by accident that Hagen has become so proficient at serving. She is one of the hardest workers on the Lady Panthers varsity volleyball team, often staying after practice to work on her serve technique and other parts of her game.

She said she was very proud to start the season with 146 consecutive accurate serves.

“It takes a lot of practice,” Hagen said of being so proficient serving the volleyball. “I was not the best my freshman year. My serve was weak and I was barely able to get the ball over the net serving, but I worked hard at it.

I stayed after practice with Lia Roundcount, also a senior, and we worked to get where we are today.

The seniors on our team work very hard. I worked a lot over the summer into the season.”

Hagen is the setter for the Jersey team and she said it takes a lot of practice to figure out where people are going to want the ball.

Hagen has her eyes set not so much on her statistics, but win-

ning a regional title and getting to the section in Jerseyville.

“I have never won a regional title and that is something I really

want the team to do,” she said, always putting the Jersey team foremost in her mind, not individual accomplishments.

Mascoutah defeats Jersey volleyball girls STAFF REPORT Jersey County Journal Jersey hosted conference leader Mascoutah on Tuesday night and lost 25-10, 25-10.

Jersey travels to Highland on Tuesday and hosts the Jersey Tournament on Saturday, Oct. 18.

By DAN BRANNAN Jersey County Journal The Jersey soccer boys and coach Scott Burney showed their hearts for others Monday night, wearing pink in commemoration of those who have suffered from breast cancer.

Monday was the Panthers annual game for breast cancer awareness.

Before the match two women – Dee Dee Roth and Janelle Ritter - came out on the field to present the game ball to Jersey soccer player Jacob Witt. The two women are cancer survivors. All proceeds raised go to the American Cancer Society. Parent volunteers collected funds, as well as some volunteers from Burney’s health classes.

Burney was extremely proud of his players, coaches and those in attendance for the game dedicated to those with breast cancer. The coach wants his players to see the benefits of community service and seeing causes to support like cancer awareness.

“We are a small community and almost everyone on our team is affected by it (cancer) in some way or another,” he said.

A moment of silence was held before the game, remembering those who had lost the battle to the illness.

A 50-50 drawing was held during the Monday’s game against Alton and the winner – Brad Kimble – gave his winnings back to go to the breast cancer fundraiser.

Alton won the match, led behind Eric Ferenbach’s three goals 5-0 on Monday.

The Panthers lost to Highland in a close match on Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2-0 at Highland.

“We continue to work on the things to improve on,” Burney said.

“We hope that our younger players are gaining more knowledge and game experience as the season nears an end.”

Last Thursday, Jersey beat Mascoutah 2-0 in a weather-shortened game that only had play in the first half. Jordan Jones and Walter Becker had goals.

Last weekend’s Panther Cup tourney at Jersey was postponed because of rain. Jersey was scheduled to play

Staunton edges Southwestern 12-6 in defensive confrontation DAN BRANNAN Jersey County Journal Southwestern lost a defensive battle to Staunton 12-6 on Friday night at Staunton.

With about eight minutes left, Southwestern scored on a quarterback Andrew Fry rushing touchdown, putting the Piasa Birds back in the game.

Fry was held back to 48 yards passing and 100 yards rushing.

Staunton kicked a field goal in the second quarter to go up 12-0, then neither team scored in the third; Staunton had nine points in the fourth to the Piasa Birds’ six.

“Staunton did everything right, scheme wise, to throw us off,” Southwestern coach Aaron Fricke said. “We figured it out a little too late. We had a lot of penalties and a few big turnovers that also killed drives. It’s definitely something to learn from in the future.”

Southwestern, 3-3, has to win two of the next three games to be looked at for a playoff shot.

“Each game will be a lot like

Since the founding of our nation, the role of newspapers in our democracy has been crystal clear. We have been, and will continue to be, the eyes and ears of the American people. After all, the right of free speech is meaningless if no one knows what’s really going on. That’s why more than 100 million Americans depend on their hometown newspapers daily and why today’s newsrooms are staffed with dedicated, highly trained reporters and experienced editors who bring you the very best journalism found anywhere, in print and online.
