OSU team honored for work in East Palestine

By Tracy Turner

COLUMBUS — From the moment the train derailed on Feb. 3 in East Palestine, Ohio, resulting in a toxic chemical release and massive fire that forced hundreds of people to evacuate their homes, the calls from local farmers and producers for help began flooding into the Ohio State University Extension office in Columbiana County.

Impacted families were told to evacuate due to the release of some of the train’s transported chemicals including vinyl chloride, and the combusting chemical products from the initial burning tank cars followed by a controlled burn, into the air, on to the soil and into surface water.

Team, which brings together experts from CFAES and OSU Extension. The team worked with families in East Palestine to “get science in the picture so that we could answer questions factually using the data available to us,” Shoemaker said.

The CFAES Crisis Rapid Response Team for East Palestine was recently honored with the 2023 Spirit of the Land-Grant Award. The award was initiated during CFAES’ sesquicentennial year to celebrate land-grant heroes.

The award recognizes individuals who support, exemplify or create opportunities that embody CFAES’ values and personify the college’s land-grant DNA, said Cathann A. Kress, Ohio State vice president for agricultural administration and CFAES dean.

In addition to Shoemaker, the team includes the following members:

Injuries, fatalities

from agricultural confined space incidents increased last year: report

By Farm and Dairy staff editorial@farmanddairy.com

Ohio and Pennsylvania were among the states with the most agricultural confined spaces-related injuries and fatalities last year, according to an annual report recently released by Purdue University.

The number of cases in 2022 jumped up more than 40% over the previous year, according to the 2022 Summary of U.S. Agricultural Confined Space-Related Injuries

and Fatalities. There were 83 cases in 2022.

“Despite the significant resources being devoted to addressing the issue, the number of reported cases continues to be a cause for concern,” the report stated.

Details. Nearly half of the total cases were grain-related entrapments. There were 42 cases, a 45% increase over 2021. This is the highest number of reported grain entrapments in over a decade.

Grain entrapments are the most common type of agricultural

confined space incident, and one that can be prevented, said Edward Sheldon, one of the report authors and a research associate in Purdue’s Agricultural Safety and Health Program.

“Many entrapments result from someone entering a bin or structure to break loose clumped, spoiled grain,” he said. “Keep the grain in good condition to eliminate the need to enter the bin.”

“We’ve been told to evacuate, but where can we take our livestock?” was among the first questions posed by farmers and producers to Haley Shoemaker, agriculture and natural resources educator with OSU Extension, in Columbiana and Mahoning counties. Local farmers had other questions, too. Would pastures be OK for spring livestock grazing? What about planting crops on ground around the derailment?

In response, CFAES implemented its Crisis Rapid Response

• Sam Custer, OSU Extension interim assistant director.

• Jeff Hattey, a professor of soil science and state Extension specialist in soil management, who provided the first researchbased soil science response and co-led the on-site work with Shoemaker.

Injuries, fatalities from ag confined spaces increased last year: report

(Continued from Page A1)

cases, incidents involved livestock waste handling facilities, entanglements inside confined spaces, falls from confined space structures and grain dust explosions or fires. There were 11 recorded cases involving livestock waste storage pits or lagoons, eight of which were fatal. Increase. Most of the increase in cases last year was due largely to one incident — a grain plant explosion in Iowa that injured 15 people — but the cases in 2022 were higher than both the 5- and 10-year average.

The oldest victim was 75 and the youngest was 4 years old. Seven cases involved children or young adults under the age of 21.

Iowa reported the most agricultural confinement cases, at 24, and grain entrapment cases at nine. Ohio, In-

diana and Minnesota tied for second with six confinement cases each. Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Illinois, Mississippi and Georgia and had four confinement cases each.

Incidents are becoming easier to track, thanks to online media reports, so that may be pushing reported cases up, Sheldon said. Purdue University has been tracking grainrelated incident data since 1975 and has expanded its reach over the years to include other types of confinement incidents.

It’s estimated that about 30% of incidents go unreported, particularly those that are nonfatal and those that take place at operations not covered by federal OSHA injury reporting requirements.

“There is a better awareness for safety among farmers, but we’ve got a ways to go,” Sheldon said.

Workshop will discuss maple syrup grading

FRIEDENS, Pa. — An upcoming Penn State Extension workshop will provide an in-depth understanding of the scientific principles that govern the grading and quality of maple syrup. The workshop will be 9-11:30

a.m. Sept. 6 at the Friedens Lutheran Church, 131 S Main St. Participants will gain valuable insights into the factors that influence the grade and quality of maple syrup, as well as the causes of off-flavors that can occur in the syrup. Additionally, attendees will learn how to avoid these off-flavors, ensuring that they are able to produce high-quality maple syrup that meets the highest standards of excellence.

This workshop is aimed at beginning, intermediate and commercial syrup producers and will focus on the following topics: chemistry that occurs when you heat maple sap/syrup; causes of off-flavors in maple syrup; tips to avoid off-flavors in maple syrup; and tools used to grade syrup.

This program is in partnership with The Ohio State University and Future Generations University. The cost of the workshop is $20. Preregistration is required by Aug. 31.

Protect Your Groundwater Day will be Sept. 5

WESTERVILLE, Ohio — The National Ground Water Association and WellOwner.org announced that Protect Your Groundwater Day will be Sept. 5.

This annual event is a day of action and education in which organizations across the country urge water well owners to test, tend and treat their private water systems.

There are estimated to be more than 13 million private water wells in the U.S. Additionally, more than

40% of public water is provided from groundwater sources.

NGWA encourages annual inspections of private water systems by certified water well contractors to ensure systems are operating correctly and producing safe and healthy water. WellOwner.org offers private well owners tip sheets on water well maintenance and a “Find A Contractor” page which allows the public to find certified local water well contractors in their area.

Creating a baleage feeding plan

By Jason Hartschuh

Maintaining forage quality with small dry-weather windows can be done by using baleage instead of dry hay.

The ideal conditions for baleage is to bale the hay between 40 to 65% moisture and wrap within two hours of baling. This process uses anaerobic conditions and the acids produced in fermentations to preserve hay.

Baleage fermentation is slower than in haylage, often taking six weeks. When forage is baled between 25 to 40% moisture, it will not ferment properly and baleage at these moisture levels should be considered as temporary storage.

During such situations, preservation is primarily a function of maintaining anaerobic, oxygen-limiting conditions. Mold is more likely at this moisture; higher bale densities and more wraps of plastic is required to better seal out oxygen. Baleage at this moisture will not maintain quality for long term in storage, and thus, it needs to be fed as soon as possible.

Have a plan. Baleage can be utilized as a plan or as a backup, but the best baleage is a plan and not a rescue.

A recent study conducted at the U.S. Dairy Forage Research center investigated the benefits of wrapping 25% moisture hay. This moisture has often been considered no man’s land, as it is too wet to safely bale with preservatives as dry hay and to dry to bale as baleage.

This study investigated heating of the wrapped hay versus unwrapped with preservatives. Wrapping hay significantly reduced heating with no protein degradation compared to unwrapped hay.

When propionic acid was added at baling to the wrapped bales, not only was heating reduced, but after 84 days in wrapped storage the bales exhibited improved aerobic stability for the following 33 days

it was monitored. This means that the hay would have improved bunk life.

While keeping oxygen out is the most important part of making highquality baleage, it starts with mowing. When baleage is the planned storage method, your harvest capacity-limiting factor will be how many bales you can wrap an hour with the ideal goal of wrapping the bales within four hours.

Based on research done at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, we recommend laying swaths as wide as your mower will allow, helping preserve forage quality and speeds up drying to 65% moisture by 10.8 hours.

When baling, your goal needs to be for the highest-density bales that you can make. Increasing density from 6 pounds/foot 3 to 8 pounds/ foot 3, you gain an extra 12 hours of bunk life in the haylage due mostly to better bale fermentation.

Wrapping. It is important to wrap bales as soon as possible after baling to avoid spoilage. Most bale wrap is one mil low-density polyethylene and bales need a minimum of 5 mils of plastic to seal out oxygen, requiring a minimum of six wraps.

Types of plastic vary greatly in their stretchiness, which can reduce thickness by up to 25%. Some stretch is necessary so that the plastic stays sticky and seals well between the layers of plastic.

Be cautious when wrapping in the rain, as this will reduce the stickiness and allow more oxygen to penetrate, causing spoilage. Also, be cautious when wrapping forages that poke through the plastic which will require more layers.

When oxygen enters the bale, they start to heat and quality declines when temperatures are over 120ºF. The amount of time until bales are wrapped and the number of mils of wrap significantly affects

internal bale temperature.

After bales are wrapped, handle them carefully using a squeeze so that plastic is not torn. If plastic is torn in storage, the tears should be taped as soon as you notice them. For this reason, bales should be inspected weekly in storage.

Never use bale spears to move wrapped haylage until the day you are going to feed it. It is recommended that bales be fed within a year of wrapping.

Baleage that is too wet, over 60% moisture, should be feed within three months, and baleage that is below 40% will not ferment well and should be fed within six months.

Most of the time when we make baleage as a rescue, it falls in the range of needing to be fed within six months. When done right, baleage can last a year and make excellent feed.

When done wrong, Baleage can spoil, mold and grow organisms that will make your animals sick; use your eyes and nose to be sure that the forage you are going to feed is of high quality. Don’t force animals to eat forage they don’t want.

The first names were common in the last century: Clara, Woodrow, Elmer, Ethel. The last names, Anglicized over time, mostly reached back to Germany and France with a few stopping short in Ireland and Scotland.

All were neighbors up and down the single-track, thinly-rocked road that ran a few miles from an ancient limestone bluff on the northwest to the fescue-clad levee a rifle shot southeast. The road was older than Illinois, a path worn bare by moccasins between Cahokia up north and the French settlement of Kaskaskia to the south.

At least until 1881, when the Mississippi River claimed the nearby Kaskaskia River’s more eastern channel to give the old road a new end, the Mississippi. Seventy years later, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built a second new terminus, the bigshouldered levee.

To us it was just Roots Road, a route between a village worn down to just a sign on an abandoned railroad that went past a nearly-hidden tavern and some family farms to go, literally, nowhere. It was short, dusty, and it held our whole world.

At one end lived Frank and Clara K., he a leathery, thin farmer and cattleman of German stock; she a chatty, apron-wearing mother of six who sold eggs to neighbors for “walking-around money.” Their son Gary, carried his father’s confidence and his mother’s humor. He took over the farm until his too-young passing in 2004.

Down the road and to the right stood Roots Tavern, a low building designed to be exactly what it was, an out-of-the-way watering hole miles from any prying prig. A knotty-

pine bar ran its length and was rarely uncrowded day or night, Sunday to Sunday.

My mother disliked it, its proprietor, Russell B., and his brother, Elmer. My father, however, found Elmer, who farmed and drove a truck for a nearby rock quarry, great company because both were avid talkers and slow beer drinkers, two ingredients for a hearty laugh and a long friendship.

From there, a short walk took you to two aging gentlemen, George W. and Peanuts B., who lived in a two-story, shingled house. I never learned Peanuts’ given name but he was a whiz mechanic who could fix almost anything that burned gas. George’s mother, reportedly, had family ties to the indigenous people who had farmed our land generations before us.

Another half mile or so towards our house lived three farming bachelor brothers, Woodrow, Tanny, and Elvin L. They were as French as Napoleon but their family had been in Illinois long before the small Corsican became Europe’s big man. Tanny was the silent one, Woodrow the homebody cook, and Elvin the always-smiling, always-waving extrovert.

Nearby was Emil M., a retired farmer and Walter Brennan lookalike, and his wife Ethel, who was always wearing her Sunday best–pearls, red lipstick, heavy face powder–every Saturday when I pedaled my bike to her house to buy our family’s four dozen eggs. Two unmarried sons, Ivan and Harold, lived with them in the small, sturdy farmhouse.

Two years ago, while on a visit to southern Illinois, I came across Ivan (Harold died in 2003) mowing the lawn near the only home he had ever lived in. I asked him about a grave I

had just encountered at the nearby cemetery that appeared to be a daysold baby his parents had buried in the early 1920s.

I was correct, he confirmed. “But,” he added quietly, “it’s just one of four babies they buried before my oldest brother was born.” Barely a half-mile from where Ivan related that unpowdered fact stood our house, an often-flooded, sweltering oven in the summer and drafty deep freeze in the winter.

Not quite a mile beyond our milking parlor the road abruptly ended where Earl Gene P., the baby brother of our hired men Jackie and Howard, lived for decades with his large family.

Today, all those farms, homes, and people–save the tavern and Ivan–are either burned, bulldozed or buried. The old road, now allweather, passes through only corn, soybeans, and whispering ghosts.

Change is hard, but necessary

By Judith Sutherland

This past week we attended the ribbon cutting for a brand new school complex. We joined our community for the open house, giving us our first chance to tour the new building.

We watched the expressions of our own two young grandchildren who will begin their journey there in September, one in her second year of preschool, her brother starting first grade.

The excitement was perhaps tinged with that overwhelming realization of largess that can scarcely be processed at first sight. That same emotion was mirrored in the expressions of adults among us, as well.

“This is OUR school!” one junior-high-aged girl exclaimed as she passed us, adding to a friend, “Can you believe it?” I think those same words were echoing in many heads as we took it all in.

Progress is necessary, even though there are many who fight it. It was in the 1960s when two small rural, rival schools merged to form Hillsdale, with a new school built for grades 9-12. All three of those aging school buildings have continued in use, and some will say they are good enough. Those who work in the schools say it is a constant battle to meet necessary modern-day demands and safety issues.

Our school district was lucky to have received revenue from a pipe-

line project which cut through this area a few years ago. According to roverpipelinefacts.com, the Rover Pipeline route spans approximately 713 miles originating in southeastern Ohio, western West Virginia, and southwestern Pennsylvania. It continues north across Ohio to an interconnection in Defiance, then crosses into Michigan.

Quoted in the Ashland TimesGazette in 2020 was Hillsdale school superintendent Steve Dickerson: “I researched, spoke with some great people — attorneys, people who deal with loans. I had enough information and felt good enough to understand that Hillsdale was going to receive a large sum of money... We wouldn’t have to go to taxpayers for a dime.”

However, the money the district receives from the pipeline — $8 million in 2020 — depreciates 3% every year for 30 years. Using this information, the district formulated a 20year loan-repayment plan for its new building.

Change is often hard to accept. I have vague childhood memories of the era in which our two community schools merged into one, listening to adults around our kitchen table. It was a very sore subject for many. The new school seems to have evoked that same response from some. An impressive new school brings excitement and growth along with positive real estate values for those in the district, while providing a secure, one-campus building set on

55 acres for new generations. Others see it as just too much. The pipeline money helped make the decision, though some will still revolt against it.

My own grandmother, long gone by the time these two school districts merged, had once dreamed of teaching in the one-room schoolhouse she had attended. It closed the year before she could teach, with students going to a new school, one which will now close.

This complex is an incredible, progressive step for our rural community. As tough as it is to part with the past, generations before us have proven this is an ongoing theme of humanity. We must let go of what we’ve known if we wish to jump forward to progressive, new possibilities. We will find our footing as we make the new a part of our everyday world, and be glad in it.

OSU team honored for work in East Palestine

• Devin Peterson, a distinguished professor in the CFAES Department of Food Science and Technology, alongside Matt Teegarden, FST senior researcher. The FST lab team conducted plant and fish tissue sample analysis, which was provided to landowners, ODA and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

• Adam Ward, CFAES director of government affairs, who kept government agencies informed on what the team was doing and helped answer the agencies’ questions.

• Heather Raymond, director of the CFAES Water Quality Initiative, who worked as the team’s researchbased water expert and assisted in connections with Ohio EPA.

• Maurice Eastridge, a professor and an OSU Extension dairy specialist in the CFAES Department of Animal Sciences, who created an infographic, and was involved in early animal tissue discussions.

• Dee Jepsen, state leader, OSU Extension Agricultural Safety and Health Program, who shared her support through grant-writing.

• Jason Hartschuh, OSU Extension field specialist, dairy management and precision livestock, who assisted with the creation of the East Palestine Train Derailment FAQ.

• Michael Bisesi, a professor of environmental health sciences and vice dean for academic affairs and academic administration with Ohio State’s College of Public Health. His

presence and objective approach to the public health conversation was crucial to keeping the Research Consortium’s conversations heading toward a productive place.

• Karen Chou, an associate professor of animal sciences at Michigan State University, who offered her time and expertise in toxicology.

• Eric Barrett, area leader and OSU Extension educator, who provided leadership to Shoemaker and OSU Extension county workers.

In addition, Crisis Rapid Response Team worked in alignment with local agencies and organizations responsible for the regulatory aspects of the derailment, including the Ohio EPA, the U.S. EPA, the ODA, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Columbiana County Soil & Water Conservation District, the Ohio Emergency Management Agency, Columbiana County Emergency Management Agency, the Ohio State Farm Service Agency and the Ohio Farm Bureau.

Still working. One of the first things the team did was assist with identifying temporary housing for livestock and help direct producers to those locations in Columbiana and neighboring counties. But it didn’t stop there.

“There was much speculation in the beginning, so our goal was to listen to the needs of the residents of East Palestine, understanding that there would be a lot of learning experiences throughout the response and

that the best way that would happen was by utilizing CFAES expert recommendations based on research and scientific methods, in addition to collaborating with local, state, and national agencies,” Shoemaker said.

The team served as a first point of contact for concerned community members and producers and developed fact-based information sheets to help address ongoing questions.

They identified and engaged faculty to review the Norfolk Southern remediation plan for soil testing and provide comments to the Ohio Department of Agriculture; developed a soil-sampling protocol for ODA, which is being implemented outside of the one-mile derailment zone; and assisted in the discussion of soilsampling protocols and interpretation of results and evaluated economic and environmental impacts.

The team’s work in East Palestine isn’t over. Shoemaker said they have more data now that is helping the team move forward and learn what needs to be done in the future. For example, the plant tissue results have been able to provide impacted farmers and producers confidence in their crops to allow for conversations with consumers and end-product marketers while providing data that show the crops and meat are safe for consumption, Shoemaker said.

“We’re going to be here for the long haul and are working with the community to make sure that their needs are met now and in the future,” she said.

Deadline extended for dairy assistance

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Agriculture is extending the deadline for the new Organic Dairy Marketing Assistance Program to Aug. 11. This extension gives organic dairy producers more than two additional weeks to apply for the program.

ODMAP helps producers mitigate market volatility, higher input and transportation costs, and unstable feed supply and prices that have created unique hardships in the organic dairy industry. This assistance will help keep organic dairy operations sustainable until markets return to more normal conditions.

Through USDA’s Farm Service Agency, $104 million is available to organic dairy operations to assist with projected marketing costs in 2023. Eligible producers include certified organic dairy operations that produce milk from cows, goats and sheep. ODMAP assistance is calculated using a producers’ marketing costs in 2022. For new, transitioning or expanded organic dairy operations, assistance is based on projected marketed production in 2023. Eligible producers include certified organic dairy operations that produce milk from cows, goats and sheep.

FSA will make an initial ODMAP payment to eligible applicants factored by 75%. If funds remain at the end of the application period, an additional payment, not to exceed the remaining 25%, may be issued to eligible producers.

How to Apply. Signup opened May 24 and closes Aug. 11. To apply, producers should contact FSA at their local USDA Service Center. To complete the ODMAP application,

producers must certify to pounds of 2022 milk production or to a projection of marketed pounds in 2023, if applicable, and submit a completed application form.

At the time of application, organic dairy operations are required to provide their USDA certification of organic status confirming the operation as an organic dairy in 2023 and 2022

along with the certification of 2022 milk production in hundredweight. ODMAP complements other assistance available to dairy producers, including Dairy Margin Coverage and Supplemental DMC, with more than $611 million in benefits paid for the 2023 program year to date.

War and weather fight for market attention

By Marlin Clark

If we just looked at production projections in the Midwest, we would expect futures prices to be getting soft. In fact, prices jumped this week.

In reality, the markets traded the war in Ukraine, which took a bad turn and carried futures higher regardless of the weather improvement.

The worst fears of a droughtreduced crop are waning, although there is little hope in a long-term weather report that predicts hot and dry conditions. Be that as it may, most farmers in the Midwest received significant rain over the last two weeks, and the area of definite drought on the drought map has

been reduced 5%, to 55%.

Ohio did not get the rain most did, nor did the large production area of Southern Minnesota. Still, U.S. Department of Agriculture reports Ohio as having some of the best crops of the 18 notable states, and we are more likely than most to get just-in-time showers. That is because we get more rain in Ohio than those in the prime areas of the Corn Belt.

Crop progress. The USDA Crop Progress Report shows Ohio corn condition at 56% good, 12% excellent. That is the best in the 10 top-producing states. Illinois, for example, was hurt early, and is only rated at a total of 45%. The U.S. is at 57%, the same as last week, four points lower than the five-year average.

CASH PRICES - Grains and Feeds

Significantly, silking is ahead of normal by 3%, so much of the country has pollinated the corn while there was rain in the area. The worst fears, of pollinating in the dry, are gone for most farmers.

Ohio has 46% of the soybeans blooming, but normal is 63%. However, the nation is four percent ahead of normal, at 70%. This means that our normal period of worry, August, may be more like the first three weeks of August this year.

Agreement ended. This could have been a defensive week for the grain markets, but July 17, Russia declared that they would not extend the Black Sea Initiative, which allowed Ukraine to export grain into a sea filled with Russian warships.

We have watched them choke off shipments with slower inspections allowing fewer ships out. Their aggressive tone caused shippers to stop sending vessels back into port. As a result, shipment were slow before the embargo.

Russia claims that their side of the agreement, which was supposed to alleviate some sanctions on them and let them export fertilizer and grain, was not being upheld by the west.

According to an article in our own Farm and Dairy last week, the Russians actually exported a record tonnage of wheat last year. I have seen reports that support their claim of fertilizer slowdowns.

Adding to the impact of the new embargo is the recent spate of Russian attacks on Ukrainian port facilities, especially in Odessa. One export

elevator there has been destroyed, according to some reports, and others are damaged.

Odessa itself is suffering from Putin’s attacks on civilian infrastructure, especially a prominent Greek Orthodox United Nations Heritage cathedral. It is hard to tell how much of the civilian damage is intentional and how much is caused by misguided missiles. Maybe they are just incompetent.

Everybody suffers in this embargo. The Ukrainian farmers lose market. Grain is diverted through Poland on rail, or through Romania to sea ports. The farm gate price declines from expensive, additional freight. Polish farmers are hurt by the increased flow of grain to their markets.

The worst hurt are consumers in Africa, who live on the wheat from Ukraine. It is the cheapest supply to them, and now they must compete on a world market for wheat that is having its price inflated by war-induced problems.

Futures. December corn futures gained 24 cents July 18 and 19. They kept most of it for the week, although we dipped lower later in the week. We added another 16 1/2 cents July 24 to close at $5.45. In the early evening session July 24, we were just steady. Remember, just back on July 12 we had a low of $4.74, so we have come a long way.

November soybean futures have gained almost $1.80 in the month of July so far. For perspective, back on June 28, we had a low of $12.56 3/4. We were trading at $14.35 the evening of July 24.

Marlin Clark Market Monitor

Wheat has been especially erratic, as this is the main export of Ukraine, although there is more corn than most people realize. September futures are now trading at $7.70 1/4, after being down to $6.22 July 11. We gained over 57 cents July 21 and gained another 54 3/4 July 24.

These market reactions will likely be short lived, until we have deteriorating weather again. The news in Ukraine is now stable, but emotional reactions can happen anytime. Meanwhile, remember that the acres of soybeans were reduced by USDA a couple of weeks ago, and we still have August to trade a tight soybean supply.

For nature’s sake, leave no trace

By Turner Provost

When I spend time outdoors, I like to see and experience nature for what it is. I think many of you would agree that when you spend time outdoors, you don’t like to see trash or graffiti.

Every time I am out fishing or kayaking, I make an attempt to pick up any trash I see. While I understand sometimes accidents happen and sometimes wrappers or water bottles blow away or get forgotten about, there are times I stumble upon dump sites or areas where it was obvious that trash was left on purpose. That is what really gets me aggravated, when stuff is left out in public lands or waters because of pure laziness or neglect.

Rock cairns. There is one type of vandalism that may seem harmless but can have negative effects on stream health. These are called rock cairns, and you have probably seen them before. They are little pyramids made by stacking flat rocks along the edges of creeks, rivers, lakes or even beaches.

The big issue with this is that these rocks provide prime habitat for macroinvertebrates like crayfish, mayflies, stoneflies and hellgram-

mites. Insects are the primary food source for small stream fishes, and if there is an absence of these bugs in the stream, then the fish will have to rely on other less optimal food sources.

These rocks also make a really good habitat for small sensitive stream fishes like darters, sculpins, and madtoms. Along with fish and aquatic insects, these rocks are also very important for salamanders to hide and lay their eggs under.

When these rocks are stacked out of the water, they are useless and offer no benefit to the habitat. Plus, they are an eyesore in many pristine streams.

When I am in a remote stream, it bothers me to end to look down and see evidence that someone was just there. And it is even unlawful in many national and state parks to make rock cairns because of the destruction of critical habitat. They encourage people who are recreating

outside to knock them over and scatter the rocks back into the stream. So please enjoy nature responsibly and leave no trace that you were there.

Turner Provost The Dirt on Conservation

Pa. AG joins USDA to ensure fair food prices

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Agriculture launched a partnership July 19 between USDA and bipartisan attorneys general in 31 states, including Pennsylvania, to enhance competition and protect consumers in food and agricultural markets, including in grocery, meat and poultry processing and other markets.

Through a framework established in consultation with the state attorneys general, this new partnership will assist state attorneys general in tackling anti-competitive market structures in agriculture and related industries that are raising prices and limiting choices for consumers and producers, the USDA said in a release.

Under this new Agricultural Competition Partnership, USDA is investing in opportunities to combine state and federal authorities, expertise and market insights. The agency is also leveraging funds to support complex cases and to jointly support research and academic work for use in future cases.

Focus areas of the Agricultural Competition Partnership include: Anticompetitive market structures and practices, as well as price gouging and other anti-consumer practices, in food, retail, meat and poultry processing and other agriculture industries; lack of choices for consumers and producers; and conflicts of interest, misuse of intellectual property, and anti-competitive barriers across the food and agriculture supply chains, such as in seed markets.

Specifically, this initiative will enhance the capacity of state attorneys general to conduct on-the-ground assessments of competition and consumer issues, enhance coordination between federal and state agriculture and competition authorities and create new and more independent research program.

At the request of the states, USDA is partnering with the Center for State Enforcement of Antitrust and Consumer Protection Laws, a neutral, nonpartisan organization that provides similar support to the states. All states are eligible to join by sending a letter of intent to participate to USDA. States can join or depart at any time. Only participating partners can qualify for funds or serve on the committees. Ohio is not participating in this program, yet.

West Nile virus discovered in Pa.

PITTSBURGH — West Nile Virus was recently detected in mosquito populations in two counties in western Pennsylvania.

Mosquitoes collected by the Allegheny County Health Department’s Vector Control Program on July 11 in the City of Pittsburgh’s Beltzhoover and South Side Slopes neighborhoods, as well as Mt. Oliver Borough, tested positive for West Nile virus.

The Mercer County Conservation District said, in a July 19 release, that mosquitoes in the City of Sharon also tested positive. The district said businesses and residents near Sharon’s Budd Street Bridge should take extra precautions such as applying insect repellant and wearing long-sleeved shirts and pants when outdoors during dusk and dawn.

West Nile virus is the leading cause of mosquito-borne disease in the country. Most people infected with the West Nile virus do not feel sick. Only one in five people infected with the virus develop a fever and other symptoms, such as headache, body aches, joint pains, vomiting, diarrhea or rash, and less than 1% of infected people develop a serious illness. The last reported human case of West Nile virus occurred last September.

Pennsylvania Agricultural Hall of Fame, Ag-Industry awards select 2023 award recipients

MEADVILLE, Pa. — Agricultural organizations and previous recipients of the Pennsylvania Agricultural Hall of Fame and Ag-Industry awards have selected the 2023 award recipients.

Those selected to receive this year’s Hall of Fame awards include Laura Dengler, Dennis and James Rynd and Ag-Industry Marburger Farm Dairy.

Nominations are solicited from interested ag-related organizations and businesses as well as former recipients of both awards. Each organization or individual may submit two nominees for Hall of Fame, which may include those who have retired from farming, are currently involved in farming, or are from the service industry or organization.

Laura Dengler. Hall of Fame recipient Laura Dengler, of Saegertown, Pa., is well-known for her work in the maple industry, but she also has ties to the dairy industry, previously volunteering with the Blooming Valley 4-H Club and as a past Leader of the Kids-n-Kows 4-H Club.

She guided and mentored many children throughout those years helping them to become better showmen and understand the dairy industry and encouraging them to live out the 4-H pledge, “to make the best better.”

While her daughters were both Crawford County Alternate Dairy Princesses, NW PA Maple Queens and PA State Maple Sweethearts, Dengler spent many hours helping them prepare presentations and driving them to their programs. She also works at the Crawford

County Conservation District and works to protect, conserve and restore the natural resources of the county for present and future generations.

Dennis and James Rynd. The second recipients of the Hall of Fame award are Dennis and James Rynd, of Cochranton, Pa.

Dennis began working on the family farm by feeding the animals moving on to working in the fields at age 12. He attended Cochranton Junior-Senior High School and became involved with the Future Farmers of America program, serving as the State FFA Reporter and attending the National Future Farmers of America Convention in Kansas City, Missouri. He was the recipient of the Keystone Farmer Award and has been a member of the Crawford County Holstein, PA Holstein and National Holstein Associations, as well as the Farmer’s Union. He has been a big supporter of the 4-H Youth Program and Youth Holstein Association and served on the Crawford County Conservation District Board.

James began his agriculture career in the 1980s. He also attended Cochranton Junior-Senior High School and attended Penn State University for one year before returning home to work on the farm. He served on the Crawford County DHIA Board, was a 4-H leader for nine years, served on the PA Dairy Promotional Program Board, was president of the Cochranton Fair for four years, served on the Crawford County Extension Board, and was a member of the PA National Guard from 1971-1977.

Dennis and James are the sixth generation to farm the land purchased by their father, Jack Rynd. The current Rynd Home Dairy Farm milks an average of 180 cows and has a total of 410 animals. They own 500 acres and rent an additional 200 acres for growing crops for the herd.

Marburger Farm Dairy. Selected to receive the Ag-Industry Award was Marburger Farm Dairy of Evans City. The purchase of 100 acres of land near Evans City in 1938, Marburger Farm Dairy has been continuously in operation in one form or another.

A German immigrant by the name of George Marburger Sr. first used the land for raising draft horses until his son Adam transitioned the land into dairy production. After approximately 12 years, Adam, and his wife Georgia moved the operation to its present location. Since then, three generations of Marburgers have been operating the business.

Marburger Dairy distributes buttermilk all over the east coast and currently has over 65 family farms supplying Marburger Dairy with milk. Marburger also supplies Fairview Cheese, Titusville Dairy Products and Beaver Meadows with products.

Over 100,000 gallons of milk a week are processed at the dairy now operated by Craig Marburger and Carrie Marburger Robb following the passing of their father, James.

The Awards Program is administered by Crawford County Pomona Grange. The awards will be presented at an open program Aug. 13 at 2 p.m. at the New Beginnings Church, 13226 Leslie Road.

Early in the summer, two gray birds with pale yellow chest feathers started building a nest in the exterior eave of one of our outbuildings. It wasn’t a difficult job. There were remnants of a previous nest to work with, and the two simply added a bit more grass and some fluffs of wool. At first, I thought to regularly check and see if there were any hatchlings, but soon forgot all about them.

Last week, we held an herbalism workshop and poetry reading at the ranch using the aforementioned outbuilding as our gathering place for both events. Participants kept noting the birds circling over their heads. It was clear the birds weren’t very excited to have a crowd milling around. It never occurred to me, but definitely should have, that their consternation might be because there were babies in the nest.

Five days later, I was once again packing the car for a trip. The car was overfull and there was still more that needed to be packed, so my husband and I began a complicated game of car trunk tetris. On one of the trips from the house to the car, I noticed a small feathery lump on the ground–a tiny, baby bird, nearly fully feathered, but too small and weak to be alone. Overhead, the baby’s parents swooped and called (the birds from the outbuilding nest, of course) and I realized I had been hearing them talk to this little one on the ground for a while.

Contrary to popular belief, you CAN return a baby bird to the nest. The smell of human hands does not prevent the baby from getting fed by the parents. So, my husband pulled out the ladder, and returned the little one to the nest. The parents immediately stopped crying, and began swooping in to check on their rescued nestling.

It would have been lovely if the story had ended there, but it wasn’t long before we discovered another, different baby from the same hatching a little farther away. This baby was sturdier than the first, and closer to fully feathered, but the abundance of cats and dogs in the yard means that even a healthy fledgling doesn’t stand much of a chance. Two babies on the ground also made me question whether returning this one to the nest was a good idea after all.

After a quick google search, I decided the next best option was to

Eliza Blue Little Pasture on the Prairie

put the baby in a basket tied to a tree limb so skinny that a cat wouldn’t dare climb out to eat it. Bird rescuers on the internet assured me that the parents would feed the baby as long as they could hear it.

I filled the basket with wool. The little bird snuggled into the small, round indent I’d made for it, and fell immediately asleep. Car packing continued, but I kept glancing at the basket, hoping the baby would wake up and start calling so I could be sure the internet was right.

Dusk was approaching when I heard a faint, high keening. It was the baby, and within seconds I heard the parents responding with the same call. The car was mostly packed by then, and I watched from the kitchen window to see if the parents would actually find and feed their wayward babe. I couldn’t say for sure, but it certainly appeared the parents knew exactly where the baby was and were trying to figure out what to do about it.

The next morning I made a quick batch of pancakes for the road, but not before running out quickly to check on the little bird. Still nestled in the wool, the baby let out a thin, whistling cry at my approach. Overhead, I heard the response from one of the adults. I scuttled away as quickly as I could and sure enough, the parents came swooping behind me. I got on the road with a smile on my face. It was awfully nice to start the trip with a happy ending.

Select Sires welcomes summer interns

PLAIN CITY, Ohio — For years, Select Sires has fostered an environment ideal for teaching and training the next generation. This year is no exception, as Select Sires welcomes a group of six new interns to the team for the summer.

Taylor Ayars and Caroline Winter will be spending their summers as veterinary interns, with Zachary Schmidt joining as a livestock technician. Samantha Adkins will start in the office as a corporate communications intern, Ian Johnson as the newest corporate account intern and Erin Curtis Szalach in dairy sire marketing.

“We offer internships in all divisions of Select Sires,” said David Thorbahn, president and CEO of Select Sires Inc. “It is this breadth and depth of our internship experience that allows students to focus on their interests. We try to tailor internship experiences to each student, often creating unique experiences to fit the needs of the student and the company.”

Mechanicsburg, Ohio, native Taylor Ayars, is looking forward to learning about the veterinarian’s role in the A.I. industry as a veterinary intern. A Wilmington College graduate, Ayars is now studying at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine with aspirations to pursue a career in either food or mixed animal medicine. She is no stranger to the agriculture industry, having grown up on a beef farm, showing both beef heifers and steers in

4-H and FFA. Ayars is heavily involved on Ohio State’s campus as a member of the Food Animal Club and the Student American Association of Veterinary Nutritionists and a Hill’s Student Representative. This summer, she is looking forward to learning about maintaining sire health, common diseases in sires, and ultimately, the veterinarian’s role in the A.I. industry.

From Ashville, Ohio, Caroline Winter will spend her summer as a veterinary intern. Winter, a senior at the University of Findlay, is majoring in animal science with a focus in veterinary medicine. She grew up on a registered Black Angus cattle farm and also maintained a registered Shorthorn herd of her own. On campus, Winter serves as the vice president of Collegiate Future Farmers of America and is a member of Habitat for Humanity and Pre-Vet Club. This summer, Winter is looking forward to learning more about the bovine reproduction side of veterinary medicine, with high hopes to apply what she learns to her future career in animal science.

Zachary Schmidt, a local from Plain City, Ohio, will join the Select Sires team as a livestock technician. Choosing to travel south for school, Schmidt is a current student at the University of Alabama where he is studying mechanical engineering in science, technology, engineering and math with the intention of obtaining his Master of Business Administration soon after. Throughout his youth, Schmidt spent time working on his extended family’s farm and showing steers. Schmidt’s role as a livestock technician will provide him the opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience, which is what he is most looking forward to doing at Select Sires this summer.

From Milford Center, Ohio, Samantha Adkins joins the communications department as a corporate communications intern. Adkins will be a senior at the University of Findlay where she is studying English and graphic design, with hopes to start her own creative agency. An active student on campus, Adkins holds positions as a resident director, literacy

tutor and Sigma Tau Delta public relations officer. She grew up riding and showing horses and participated in 4-H for 13 years where she developed a familiarity with the agriculture industry. Adkins’ primary role this summer will be designing the breeding calendars, and plans to assist with any additional projects, offering experience in photography, social media management and writing.

Ian Johnson did not travel far from home before finding a role as Select Sires’ corporate account intern. Originally from Marysville, Ohio, Johnson has spent the past three years as an animal science student at Iowa State University where he splits his time between the Alpha Gamma Rho Fraternity, Block and Bridle Club, Senior Class Council and being an Animal Science peer mentor. Hi s area of study stems from having grown up on a small club lamb operation, where his family runs 30-head of crossbred and Hampshire ewes. Johnson hopes to continue his career in ani-

mal agriculture, specifically within the genetics field, which is why he is looking forward to working with everyone on the Select Sires team and learning from their experiences.

Hail ing from Cazenovia, New York, Erin Curtis Szalach will serve as the dairy sire marketing summer intern at Select Sires. She brings a plethora of experience to the table, from being an active member of 4-H, FFA and the National Ayrshire Association, to even selling her own bull to Select Sires. Curtis Szalach is a senior at the State University of New York Cobleskill where she is pursuing her passion for agriculture by obtaining a degree in animal science with a focus in dairy. She grew up on a small, registered Ayrshire farm and hopes to continue working in the dairy industry, preferably in genetics. In the past, Curtis Szalach has raised and developed numerous All-American nominees and hopes to apply her past experience to her current role as the dairy sire mar-

keting intern. Based in Plain City, Ohio, Select Sires Inc. is the largest global A.I. cooperative and is comprised of six farmer-owned and-controlled local organizations in the

United States. As the industry leader, it provides highly fertile semen, as well as excellence in service and programs to supply dairy and beef producers with the world’s best genetics.

Choose to feel God’s influence

When asked why the skilled cancer surgeon chose her profession, she told her story. After two years of teaching third grade, she couldn’t handle the pressure, so she graduated from medical school and went into surgery. It was a good choice.

Rev. Eldon Trubee

Like as a Fire

Genesis 32:22-31.

And [Jacob] rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two women-servants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok. And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had. And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him. And he said, “Let me go, for the day breaketh.” And he said, “I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.” And he said, “Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.” And Jacob asked him, and said, “Tell me, I pray thee, thy name.” And he said, “Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name?” Ah blessed him there. And Jacob called the name of the place Penial: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and halted upon his thigh.

GOD’S PLACES IN OUR DECISIONS

Three recent high school graduates were discussing their future plans. Two were headed for college. The third planned to be an auto technician. When asked why the future technician didn’t choose another occupation, he replied, “If your car won’t go, you won’t go.”

I was entering my junior year in college, and feeling uncertain about what I wanted to do with my life. After listening to a lackluster sermon from an elderly beloved pastor whose health was failing, I asked myself, who was going to replace this faithful old servant of Christ? God must have been listening. I had never considered the ministry before that moment.

These stories come from the lives of ordinary folks finding their places in God’s plan. Each story is not earthshaking like Jacob’s, but they found their places in God’s plans for them.

Jacob’s story. Jacob grew up in a family of successful farmers. He was a clever young fellow who cheated his older brother Esau out of his inheritance for a bowl of soup. He conned his blind father Isaac into believing that he was Isaac, thus receiving the powerful blessing intended for his older brother.

Fearing Esau’s wrath, Jacob ran away, heading for his Uncle Laban’s land in Haran. Jacob dreamed about angels ascending and descending a ladder to heaven. It was his first serious encounter with God and the idea that the Almighty had a plan for his life.

Uncle Laben took advantage of Jacob, signing him up for a period of servitude in exchange for one of his daughters in marriage. But Laban conned him into marrying both of his daughters while extending Jacob’s time of service.

Jacob, however, got the last laugh. He took off with the two wives, their children and flocks, leaving Laban short-handed.

The above passage takes place as Jacob is on his way to meet Esau. His encounter with the Lord reveals to Jacob that God has a purpose for his life. He is to continue shepherding livestock, as he has done, but he is to lead God’s chosen people, his family

and their progeny, as the Lord guides them into the future. He is to conduct his life as God guides him.

Jacob and Esau peacefully and joyfully reunite. Jacob would settle down with his now twelve sons and their offspring in Palestine. This patriarch of God’s people would die in Egypt where, with his son Joseph’s help and influence, would find food and safety during a great famine. Jacob fulfilled God’s purpose while doing what he had done all of his life.

A flawed journey. Joseph’s story may sound a bit like yours and mine. We haven’t experienced all of the drama of this biblical character; however, we have had our ups and downs, questions, flaws and problems with moral and ethical choices. We may have changed our occupations and shifted professions, or perhaps we have continued a steady life-long calling. Have we ever pondered God’s place and voice in our decisions?

Joseph realized that God would continue to be present with him in the ladder vision and promised to guide him by means of a wrestling match, This relatively ordinary man, a mixture of strengths and weaknesses, was a vessel of God’s goodness and work in the world. Joseph had asked the question of God’s presence, and the Lord answered.

Whatever we do in our lives, God is there to nudge us in ways we can understand. But you and I must choose to allow God’s presence to influence us.

If we have reached Jacob’s retirement age, let’s share our stories about the difficult decisions we faced, and how God guided us in our lives pursuits. The young need to hear and hopefully learn from our experiences.

Let’s consider asking God to help us to reflect God’s presence with us in our decisions and the quality of our efforts.

Lord, may we be thankful for the talents of people in all walks of life who have made our lives better. Help us to find your place in our choices and efforts. Amen.

Meditation from the Upper Room

SHEPHERD THE FLOCK

Like shepherds, tend the flock of God among you. Watch over it..

— 1 Peter 5:2 (CEB)

I was married to an alcoholic who was abusive. Many days I dreaded what might happen when I arrived home from work. During the hardest nights, I would lie awake worrying that he might hurt me while I slept. The police and the courts got involved, and ultimately the marriage ended.

I felt ashamed and discouraged

Gettysburg series: Life goes on

By Stephen Broache

(Editor’s note: Part 7 in a series in honor of the 160th anniversary of The Battle of Gettysburg, July 1-4, 1863.)

“And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours. It was fitting to make merry and be glad, for this your brother was dead, and is alive; he was lost and is found.’”

— conclusion of “The Prodigal Son”, Luke 15

There was a series in what was my local newspaper, The Gettysburg Times, that I miss. I guess the war had ended.

To explain … Each day there was a short paragraph or two telling exactly what happened during the war between the states 150 years ago. So and so general moved on … Provisions were taken … A ship ran aground …

I looked forward to the dayto-day running drama of the trivial details. But, the April surrender ended the stories. The war is over, and the soldiers are going home. I was living the daily news of the 1860s. It was very enjoyable for me but probably not so much for an 1860 American.

Was it over when it was over?

Did you ever watch an old western (post-war), when the antagonists will say something like, “You’re a Reb!” or “Who’d you ride with? Or “I wouldn’t expect any different from a blue-belly!”

Those new revelations bring a little more conflict than barbed wire — the “I want the girl” or “you dirty double-crosser” conflicts.

The great short story of Jesus also applies here. When the wasteful son came home to repent of his rebellion and “loose living,” all was not forgiven.

The older, more obedient son was — we might agree, rightly — angry. To be fair to him, the story leaves us hanging. Perhaps he also comes around to forgive his brother.

Do our personal wars end?

Can we go on with life in peace and harmony with those who have injured us? It’s a common theme in literature and movies, that of “cherished rage” that is held close, to motivate and inspire us to even the score.

The lesson from Jesus is “to make merry and be glad,” using the imagery of death to life, lost and now found. When we continue to cherish and nurture the anger and hurt, I suppose the war never ends. We never heal. The toxic nature of our rage devours us.

On the positive side, I’d still be reading my Times series, and all would be right in my literary world, but life needed to go on then, and it needs to go on now.

Even if achieving forgiveness is a spiral requiring effort and time, without it there is no joy. The joy of a loving father welcoming us home.

Prayer: Lord God, forgive me, and may I let go of the rage I cherish. In my life, may I have a new beginning. Amen.

about my marriage and the course of events. I was surprised to find certain friends and family members undependable. It seemed that they were ashamed too. I felt alone — except for God. I prayed continually and could sense that God was guiding me.

Then two older members of my church helped me understand more clearly God’s all-encompassing love for me. I had expected to be berated and rejected, but instead they surprised me with grace. They met me with keen understanding, guidance, and compassion that I had not expe-

rienced before.

Now, many years later, I rejoice as I remember this man and woman and how God used them to shepherd me through a very difficult time. My hope is that I may honor God by being the same kind of helper to others.

TODAY’S PRAYER

Gracious and loving God, thank you for never leaving us. Please guide us to those who need our understanding and compassion. Amen.

— Carrie Knight Kitzmiller (Texas)

Inconsistent rain raises questions about crop quality

Lee Beers

Answers from Dairy Excel

It’s a familiar story this time of year about the weather. Some farms catch all the rainstorms, while others, just a road over, will miss them all. Considering that much of northeast Ohio is currently experiencing a moderate drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor (droughtmonitor.unl.edu), more farms in our area are missing the rain than catching it.

You may have noticed some of the signs of drought out in the fields, including curled corn leaves, non-uniform crop stands, prominent tile lines and lower hay yields. Additionally, you may have some corn or forages showing signs of nutrient deficiency.

The cause. Soil moisture is critical for nutrient uptake in plants, so it’s not surprising to see some nutrient-deficient crops this year. Sulfur, manganese, potassium and zinc deficiencies have been observed on my weekly crop scouting trips throughout Trumbull County.

Once a nutrient deficiency has been identified, there is a natural impulse to apply a fertilizer to correct the deficiency. If you have those impulses, do your best to lock them away with your most embarrassing memories and forget they ever existed.

Visible deficiency in the crop does not mean that a nutrient deficiency exists in your soil. What is likely happening is that the root system is not fully developed, which means there is less surface area on

the roots with which they can uptake nutrients. Additionally, the lack of water means that nutrients are not moving through the soil.

It’s more common to see nutrient deficiencies in young crop plants since they do not have a fully developed root system yet. As the crop develops and the roots expand and encounter more nutrients, you will likely see some crops grow out of their deficiencies.

Many fields that have had deficiencies later developed new, dark green leaves after a rain, although some manganese-deficient fields still had older yellow or brown leaves. Soil testing and tissue testing are the best ways to determine if you need to adjust your soil fertility program.

How are forages fairing? Although nutrient-deficient crops are discouraging, there is little evidence that it will reduce forage quality. Harvest yields of hay may be down, but there should be no noticeable effects on quality. More concerning is the potential for nitrate and prussic acid toxicity. Both can be deadly to livestock, and high nitrate levels in silage can lead to deadly “silo gases.”

High nitrate levels in corn silage, when ingested by animals, can lead to a decreased ability for their blood to carry oxygen. This, in turn, can lead to incoordination, staggering, abortion, excess salivation and death. Conditions that lead to the accumulation of high nitrate levels in forages include cloudy conditions (including smoke haze), high nitrogen and/or manure application, nutrient deficiencies, rainfall after prolonged dry periods and frost.

Beware of toxicity. Other than frost, our location is experiencing

everything on the list above, which means we are at higher risk for nitrate toxicity heading into corn silage harvest season. Ensiling corn with high nitrate levels can reduce the overall nitrate concentrations by one-third to one-half, but if you suspect nitrate toxicity, it is best to test the feed. Nitrate-nitrogen levels below 1000 ppm are not toxic, but levels above this will require management steps to ration and mix out higher nitrate silage to safe levels.

Like nitrate toxicity, prussic acid also can lead to a decreased ability for blood to carry oxygen. Prussic acid can develop in a variety of forages, but it is especially concerning with sorghum, sudan grass and Johnsongrass. Decreased hay yields and spotty corn germination has led some dairy farms to use short-season forage options, which may include sorghum-sudan grass.

Lower hay yields and dry weather may encourage some producers to bale lower-quality hay including Johnsongrass. Grazing these drought-stressed crops or feeding “green-chop” will increase your likelihood of prussic acid toxicity. Prussic acid concentrations decrease during the hay drying process, and ensiled forages should not be fed until eight weeks after harvest.

Forage testing can help diagnose nitrate and prussic acid toxicity issues and should be used if there is concern. Hopefully, we get sufficient rain between now and harvest, and these will all be theoretical problems.

Canning

l Dill Beans, Water-Bath, 8 pints

• 2½ lbs. fresh green beans

• 2½ lbs. fresh yellow beans

• 3 red bell peppers, in strips

• 3 yellow hot peppers, in strips

• 2 bunches fresh dill

• 5 cups white vinegar

• 5 cups water

• ½ cup coarse salt

• 8 garlic cloves, cleaned

• 2 Tbsp. ground red pepper flakes

Trim bean stems and ends and blanche for three minutes. Run under cold water to stop the cooking. Heat eight wide mouth jars ( I run through the dishwasher and heat to dry or place in boiling water for 4 minutes) add a clove of garlic and sprinkle red pepper flakes in each jar. Arrange a mixture of all vegetables in each jar. Pack tightly, keeping vertical but leaving 1/2 inch from top of jar, trimming if necessary. Combine remaining ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to full boil over medium heat. Add vinegar mixture to each jar and seal with lid and ring. Process for 10 minutes in a water bath. Turn off heat and let sit for 5 minutes. Remove from canner to a cotton dish towel for cooling. Any jars that do not ping after 12 hours, place in the fridge and use first.

l Fiesta Salsa, Water-Bath, 7-8 pints

• 9 cups peeled and chopped tomatoes

• 2 1/2 cups green bell peppers, chopped

• 3 cups red onion, chopped

• 3 med. jalapeños, chopped

• 10 lg. cloves garlic, chopped

• 2 banana peppers, chopped

• 1/3 cup sugar

• 3 Tbsp. canning salt

• 1 Tbsp. black pepper

• 1 cup white vinegar

• 1 12 oz. can tomato paste

Remove the skins from the tomatoes. To do this, make an “X” in the bottom of the tomatoes, and then place in a bowl of boiling water for 60 seconds. Remove the tomatoes from the water and place directly into a bowl of ice water to shock. The skins should slip right off. Place all of the ingredients in a large pot and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until thickened and cooked. Process using a water bath. Process for 30 minutes and remove from pot. Let the jars sit for 24 hours. The salsa will remain good in the jar for up to 18 months. Add fresh lime juice and cilantro when serving.

l Apple Pie Filling, Water-Bath, 5-6 quarts

• 4 1/2 cups white sugar

• 1 cup cornstarch

• 1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon

• 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg

• 1 pinch ground cloves, optional

In the KNOW...

Canning is a method used to preserve fresh food in jars using high temperatures. The heating process pushes air from the jars, creating a vacuum seal as jars cool. Without air, the bacteria and mold will not grow and food won’t spoil. Two methods are the Water-Bath Method and Pressure Canning. Water bath, 212°F, is for high acid foods, like tomatoes, berries, fruit, sauerkraut, jams and jellies, and pickled vegetables. Pressure canning is for meats, seafood, poultry, chili and beans, corn, and other low-acid vegetables that require a higher temperature, 240°F.

For Water-Bath Method:

• Canner with hanging rack or stockpot with rubber trivet so jar don’t sit directly on the bottom;

• Canning jars with no chips or cracks.

• Metal bands rust free and undented; NEW canning lids with gasket; do not reuse. • Canning funnel to keep foods from spilling onto jars. Can be plastic or metal. • Jar lifter tongs to lift the hot jars from water after processing and to put into boiling water.

Prepare your recipe. Fill your water-bath pot and heat on high. It is recommended that you heat your jars before filling. Starting with your jar, fill each with the prepared recipe. Use a funnel and ladle the food into the jar. Leave ¼- to ½-inch headspace at the top. Wipe the rims of jars with a clean, damp cloth. Put the lid on each jar and then the band. Screw the lid on until closed but not too tight. Using your jar lifter, put sealed jars in the canner hanging rack. Do not allow the jars to touch. Lower jars into pot and make sure they are covered with 1 to 2 inches of water. Turn up the heat to boiling and put a lid on the pot. Start timer when water starts boiling. Every recipe could be different, but usually 10-30 minutes is required. Once finished, shut off the heat and remove the canning lid. Let set for 5 minutes. Remove the jars to a dish towel or cooling rack, not touching. As they cool, the jar should “ping” when sealed. Add water to pot as needed for each turn. Let finished jars cool completely for 12-24 hours. At that time you can check the seals. If lid springs back up, the jar didn’t seal. You need to refrigerate and use the product within 2 weeks. If you don’t feel any give, the jar has properly sealed. Mark each jar with recipe and date. Store in cool, dry, dark place for up to a year.

Pressure Canner: You need a pressure canner, NOT a pressure cooker. A pressure canner may cost $100 to $500, depending on size and quality. You use the same jars, lids and rings. You need a traditional stove with coil heating units or a gas stove. A smooth top stove may not be safe. Check with your stove manufacturer whether your model will support boiling water bath canning or pressure canning. Follow the instructions for filling the jars; leave just the right amount of headspace and do not overfill to get that last little bit into the jar. The specified head space allows room for the food inside to expand while heated and not interfere with the lid’s seal, creating a strong vacuum as the jar cools down. Waiting the full time is essential to ensure both the safety of your finished product and your physical safety. For best flavor and nutritional value, eat what you’ve preserved within a year.

l Bone Broth, Pressure Canned, 3 quarts

• 6 cups bones with meat from beef, chicken, pork, turkey or venison

• 2 med. onions quartered

• 5 cloves garlic, crushed

• 3 stalks celery

• 2 whole carrots, cut into 3” pieces

• 2 tsp. salt

• 10 cups water

• 3 Tbsp. lemon juice

• 6 pounds apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/4 inch thick

In a large pan over medium heat, mix sugar, salt, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Add five cups of water and mix well. Cook and stir constantly until sugar is dissolved. While the first mixture is heating, whisk the other 5 cups of water with the cornstarch in a separate bowl until thoroughly mixed. Add the cornstarch mix to the sugar and spice mixture and continue heating and stirring until the mixture is boiling, thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and add the lemon juice. Fill your jars halfway with sliced apples. Ladle the syrup over the apples, then add more apples to about one inch from the top of the jar. Add more syrup until the apples are covered, but leave at least 1/2 inch of room between the filling and the jar top for expansion. Put the lids and rings on the jars. Add a few cups of cold water to your boiling water bath to equalize the water temperature to the temps of the filled jars. Place jars in the water, making sure there is enough water to cover the jars with at least a 1/2 inch of water. Bring canning water to a rolling boil. Once the water is at boiling, process for 25 minutes. Remove the jars and place on a thick towel to dry. As they cool they will seal. Use unsealed jars first and refrigerate.

l Hot Pack Green Beans, Pressure Canned, 6-8 quarts

• 12-15 lbs. Fresh green beans

• Canning Salt

Rinse beans in cold water and snap beans to desired size. Put beans in a pot of boiling water. Boil for 5 minutes. Add 1 tsp. canning salt to each quart jar. Pack beans loosely into jar. Cover with clean boiling water, leaving 1 inch of headspace. Remove bubbles, wipe the rims clean and place on seal and ring. Place the jar in the warm canner. Proceed to fill all jars. Process in a pressure canner according to the instructions. Process pints for 20 minutes or quarts for 25 minutes.

• ¼ cup fresh parsley

• ¼ cup minced fresh rosemary

• ⅛ cup sage leaves

• ⅛ cup fresh thyme

• About 10-12 cups water, enough to cover

Place bones in a large Dutch oven. Add remaining ingredients. Cover with water. Bring a Dutch oven or stockpot to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer. Beef, pork and venison should cook for at least 4-5 hours on the stove. Poultry can be cooked for only 2-3 hours on the stove. Remove from heat when meat easily pulls off of the bone. Allow to cool. Strain and remove fat if desired. To can the broth, prepare pressure canner according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Add water to pot. Begin heating. Prepare jars, lids and bands. Fill jars with hot stock, leaving 1 inch of headspace. Apply lids and screw on bands fingertip tight. Place jars on the bottom insert. Fill canner and close lid. Allow steam to vent for 10 minutes. Then add the pressure regulator. Bring the pressure up to 11 psi and maintain it there. Process pints for 20 minutes and quarts for 25 minutes. After allotted time, remove from heat. Allow the canning pot to release pressure naturally. This can take up to an hour. When time, release remaining pressure. Remove lid. Allow jars to sit in the pot for about 10 minutes. Remove jars from the canner. Set them on a towel placed on the counter, undisturbed overnight. Check seals in the morning.

$5M from Shell to fund air quality monitoring in Beaver Co.

PITTSBURGH — Some of Shell’s $5 million payment for air quality violations in Beaver County must be used for regular, independent air quality testing around the company’s cracker plant in Potter Township.

That edict was part of a protocol finalized by the Environmental Mitigation Community Fund steering committee for how to spend the money secured as part of a settlement with Shell Chemical Appalachia for air quality violations during the commissioning of the company’s cracker plant. The $5 million fund is one of the largest funds of its kind in Pennsylvania history, according to the DEP.

The protocol establishes the basic outline of how the Environmental Mitigation Community Fund will be distributed and what entities are eligible to apply for funding. Projects that provide environmental, health or quality of life benefits in Beaver County may be eligible for funding.

The protocol includes that at least one funded project should provide for regular, independent, testing of the air quality in the vicinity of the facility; and at least one funded project should focus on meaningful community education and engagement that fosters civic participation to design strategies seeking to improve the health and/or quality of life of the communities near to the facility.

The steering committee will now craft a protocol implementation plan to further detail the process for how project proposals should be submitted, evaluated and selected. This plan will also establish the financial entity that will serve as the trustee and the process to distribute the funds. A separate, yet-to-be-formed, advisory board will be selected to receive, evaluate and approve projects.

Investments will strengthen food system

PHILADELPHIA — The Biden administration announced a series of investments July 21 that will increase market access and revenue streams for producers while strengthening the food system and giving consumers better access to locally grown foods and healthier choices.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Deputy Secretary Xochitl Torres Small made the announcement in Philadelphia, as officials from the Biden-Harris Administration travel across the country to demonstrate how President Biden’s Investing in America agenda is delivering results and creating transformative new economic opportunities for families and businesses.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture announced 17 new Urban Service Centers and 10 new urban county committees, as well as approximately $10.7 million in investments for the Patrick Leahy Farm to School Program and an expansion of the Healthy Food Financing Initiative, including approximately $30 million in funding availability for the new Local and Regional Healthy Food Financing Partnerships Initiative.

These announcements highlight the Biden-Harris Administration’s Investing in America agenda and its strategy to grow local economies and create more resilient and healthier communities across the country. In addition, the HFFI Partnerships Program and Farm to School Program investments support the Biden–Harris Administration’s National Strategy on Hunger, Nutrition and Health

Steer show benefits Ronald McDonald House

COLUMBUS — The Dean’s Charity Steer Show, an annual event that benefits Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio, is set for Aug. 1 at the Ohio State Fair.

The show, hosted by The Ohio State University College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences, will be held at 2 p.m. in the Voinovich Livestock & Trade Center on the Ohio Expo Center and State Fairgrounds.

The 2022 show raised $247,148 for Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Currently, the Columbus Ronald McDonald House is undergoing a major expansion, more than doubling the size of the facility. Once completed in 2023, it will be the largest Ronald McDonald House in the world, with 202 guest rooms, a new kitchen and dining facility, new staff offices and a community event room.

Ten teams, consisting of a team captain, team champion(s), and experienced Ohio 4-H youth, will not only show a steer during the Dean’s Charity Steer Show but will also compete to see who can raise the most money for Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio.

Team members will practice with their experienced 4-H’er and their steer before entering the show ring. Learn more by visiting deanscharitysteershow.osu.edu. To donate to your favorite team, visit give.osu. edu/deanscharitysteershow.

Participants. The 10 Ohio 4-H youth development families who will participate with their animals are the Barton family from Clinton County; the Gehret family from Darke County; the Bok family from Defiance County; the Moore family from Fairfield County; the Yochum family from Highland County; the Powell family from Morrow County; the Scott family from Portage County; the Fox family from Seneca County; the Sheetz family from Stark County; and the Chester family from Warren County.

Team members will include Kristin Bernert of the Columbus Crew partnered with David Holmes of 10-TV; Michelle Warnke Buurma of American Ninja Warrior and the Movement Lab Ohio; Marshela McDaniel, Dan Aloi, Melissa James, and Tara Vorst of McDonalds; Tammy Roberts Myers of Bath & Body Works partnered with Kimberly Flaherty of Washington Prime Group, and Tim Flaherty of Post House Creative; Richard Porrello of Huntington Bank partnered with Yolanda Harris of 10TV; Cy Prettyman of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation partnered with Nationwide and the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation; Rick Ricart of Ricart Automotive partnered with Kate Siefert of ABC 6 and Fox 28; Melissa Shivers of The Ohio State University partnered with Tracy Townsend of 10-TV; Matt Barnes, Monica Day, McKenna King, and Kristine Varkony, all anchors at NBC-4 TV; and Greg Ubert of Crimson Cup Coffee.

Ohio State fairgoers in for a treat

COLUMBUS — The delicious smells of fair food are filling the air across the grounds at the Ohio State Fair. This year, fairgoers will have some new options.

For the first time, the Ohio State Fair has teamed up with Schmidt’s, the longest-running vendor at the Ohio State Fair, for an exclusive cream puff flavor. Visitors can order a lemon shakeup cream puff from both the Schmidt’s 11th Avenue and 17th Avenue locations. For those seeking a classic favorite, the traditional Schmidt’s vanilla cream puff will also be available.

Velvet ice cream will once again have a new ice cream flavor available only at the Ohio State Fair. Cinnamon Churro Streusel is a cinnamon ice cream with pieces of baked churro, spun together with a cinnamon streusel swirl.

In addition to all the new sweet treats, visitors will be delighted to try new savory options as well including the new crawfish bowl and new mac and cheese bowl with a variety of different toppings.

Beware of livestock ailments at county fairs

MANHATTAN, Kan. — One of the highlights of the summer for many 4-Hers is taking their livestock projects to the county fair, but unexpected health challenges can keep those animals from being eligible to show, says Kansas State University veterinarian Bob Larson.

Speaking on a Beef Cattle Institute Cattle Chat podcast, Larson said: “Ringworm and warts are two of the most common conditions that would keep a calf from being able to go to the show.”

Many fairs require that the animals have a health evaluation by a veterinarian prior to the exhibition. Larson encouraged 4-Hers to look carefully for warts, ringworm, or any other problems early in the summer so that there is time to treat them well ahead of show day.

Warts involve removing them so that the calf’s body will create an immune response to clear them. Since ringworm is a fungus, it is best treated with sunlight and a topical cream, said Larson.

Larson also suggested inspecting the trailer well ahead of travel to the fair.

“Calves can get injured in the process of hauling them to the show, so it is important to look at the trailer to make sure there isn’t anything sharp exposed and that the flooring is solid,” Larson said.

Once cattle get to the fair, it is important to provide feed, forage and water that is familiar to them, said K-State beef cattle nutritionist Phillip Lancaster.

“When cattle go to a fair for the first time, it can be a stressful situation for them with all the people around them in an unfamiliar place, so it is important to keep them following their routines as much as you can,” Lancaster said.

And part of keeping that routine involves feeding the cattle the same feed and hay type in a familiar feed pan and, most importantly, to make sure they are drinking water, according to Lancaster.

“If the cattle have been drinking well water, the city water offered at the fair may smell or taste different to them and cause them not to drink as much and so they may need to have water brought from home,” he said. “If that is the case, you’ll need to bring plenty of water because in the summer those cattle will drink 15-20 gallons/day.”

Keep animals cool at county fair shows

MANHATTAN, Kan. — It’s county fair season, and while local events are a great way to enjoy the sun and time with friends, heat can be an invisible fun bandit for livestock.

Kansas State University beef extension veterinarian A.J. Tarpoff said it’s important for youth showing livestock to watch animals closely and know the symptoms of heat stress.

All animals — as well as people — can experience heat stress, which occurs when the body cannot get rid of excessive heat, either through sweating or other means.

How cattle cool. Tarpoff said cattle handle heat differently than other animals. In particular, they struggle with the ability to sweat, which makes them reliant on getting rid of heat through their respiratory system, such as breathing the heat out. To preserve energy, they usually dissipate the heat during the night when it’s cooler.

“It takes 4-6 hours to return cattle to regular temperature,” Tarpoff said.

He added that one way to tell if a show steer or heifer is affected by heat stress is to look for unusual behavior from that animal. Symptoms may include reduced feed intake, increased time standing and crowding around water. In the show barn, animals may also display an increase in breathing rate.

Tips. One way to keep animals cool is to make sure barns get plenty of ventilation. Tarpoff said that heat stress mitigation strategies should be planned with cattle comfort in mind, and each strategy will be unique to the housing situation. Other factors to consider include whether the animal has its winter or summer hair coat; hair color and past health issues.

Tarpoff said youth should consider reducing animal handling during heat intervals.

“Weighing, processing, sampling and shipping cattle are all necessary tasks but they should be strategically conducted during the very early morning hours to ensure cattle comfort,” Tarpoff said.

Another way to avoid heat stress is to provide plenty of water to cattle. Tarpoff said the amount of water cattle need doubles as the heat increases from 70 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

Tarpoff also encourages youth to consider moisture levels in the washing areas. Some locations can artificially increase the humidity and cause unneeded stress on livestock.

“Monitoring conditions and preparing for heat stress is a must when caring for your animals,” he said.

Stock the Trailer to fight hunger

ASHLAND, Ohio — The Ashland County Junior Fair Board will once again be participating in the Farm Credit Mid-America/Rural 1st Stock the Trailer competition. Stock the Trailer is a statewide competition, sponsored by Farm Credit MidAmerica, whose purpose is to collect food donations for hunger shelters and food banks around Ohio.

Counties that participate in the event receive $500 towards their junior fair board in addition to a chance to win other support based on how many pounds of food are collected.

The county that collects the most pounds of food in each region receives $5,000, the second-place county will receive $3,500 and the third-place county will receive $1,500. The statewide goal for the event is to collect 250,000 pounds of food. Last year, 55 counties participated, collecting a total of 169,456 pounds of food that went to 74 food banks.

Keep flea products away from rabbits

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — As every rabbit owner knows, pet rabbits can be quite curious and sometimes quite mischievous. That’s why it is extremely important for owners not to leave anything harmful or toxic in areas where the rabbit can enter.

You may know that foods toxic to rabbits include avocado, garlic, onions, chives and chocolate. A less well-known toxin is fipronil, an insecticide that is used in flea control products for pets, in-home pest management products and in commercial pest control for lawns and crops.

Dr. Michelle Borsdorf, a boardcertified specialist in zoological medicine at the University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital, wants to make owners aware of this toxin to keep their pet rabbits safe.

Rabbits can get fipronil toxicity either by ingesting the product orally or by absorbing it through the skin.

Dr. Borsdorf warns, “Rabbits are extremely sensitive to this product, as they have a much higher absorption through the skin, about 10 times that of rats.” Therefore, even a small dose can cause severe toxicity. In young rabbits or rabbits with underlying health conditions, the toxic effects may be heightened.

“This is a life-threatening toxicity that can manifest a few hours to even a few weeks after exposure,” says Dr. Borsdorf. “The main signs to watch for include neurologic signs, such as tremors, seizures, and lethargy. In addition to this, gastrointestinal signs, such as diarrhea, weight loss, drooling, reduced fecal production, and anorexia may occur.”

Exposure. Dr. Borsdorf emphasizes the importance of immediately seeking an emergency veterinarian if your rabbit is exposed to fipronil or is showing any of the clinical signs previously mentioned.

“Unfortunately, there is no antidote for fipronil toxicity, but treatment may include stabilization and decontamination either dermally or orally. Supportive care may include fluid therapy and pain and/or antiseizure medications, depending on the case.”

The prognosis is generally poor for these rabbits, so preventing any fipronil exposure is most important. In addition to this, prompt hospital management and treatment are tantamount to survival.

Prevention. If fipronil is kept in the house for other pets, such as in flea/tick protection for cats or dogs, it should be securely stored in a place the rabbit cannot enter.

Dr. Borsdorf also recommends keeping the rabbit separated from a pet that has been treated with the product to ensure that there is no direct contact or opportunity to groom the product off the treated pet.

She says that other medications to control external parasites, such as pyrethrin/permethrin for dogs and cats, are also highly toxic to rabbits and the same preventive measures should be taken with those.

If your rabbit needs parasite control, consult a veterinarian to choose an appropriate and safe medication, such as selamectin or ivermectin.

The best way to prevent exposing your rabbit to a toxin is to learn which items are toxic to rabbits and then ensure that these curious creatures cannot gain access to them. And Dr. Borsdorf says if your rabbit does encounter a toxin, an immediate trip to the emergency veterinarian is critical for treatment.

Columbiana County Agriculture Hall of Fame to induct Garwoods, Hahn

LISBON, Ohio — The late Hazel Hahn, of Minerva, and Carl and Joann Garwood, of Fairfield Township, will be enshrined in the Columbiana County Agriculture Hall of Fame for their contributions to agriculture and the greater Columbiana County community.

The ceremonies will be held during the Columbiana County Fair, at 10:30 a.m. Aug. 1, in the Arts & Crafts Building.

The honorees’ families will also be hon-

A pearl of a Gran

Though I know I’ll never lose affection, For people and things that went before,

I know I’ll often stop and think about them,

In my life, I love you more.

— The Beatles

As I write this, my beloved grandmother, affectionately known as “Granny,” (her choice) is trying very hard to have a happy death. We, her assorted family aged 7 to 100+ years, are not taking this nearly as well.

We received the news just a week ago. We went, in a blink, from “she just wasn’t feeling like herself” to dark words that choke and taste bitter like “terminal” and “palliative care.”

I telephoned her. Her first words to me were said in a hopeful, almost joyous tone of voice “Oh, Honey, I’m going to see GRANDPA!”

It should be noted that my grandfather, who was her soulmate of over 50 years, died three years ago. She has mourned him every minute since. Thus, her hope at being assigned an earthly expiration made perfect sense. Where we see loss and heartache, she — in her unwavering faith — sees reunion.

Yesterday, a visitor exclaimed that she really did look wonderful. She admonished him wearily, “Oh, please don’t say I look wonderful. I want to look like I’m DYING.”

After grandpa passed, we called and visited often. BoyWonder used his first career paycheck to provide a device that would allow her to video chat with far-flung family and friends. Still, we could never be enough. Losing your “other half” leaves a void. With great love, after all, comes great loss.

Carl Garwood, 1933-2018 Joann Garwood, 1935-2021

Carl and Joann Garwood, of Fairfield Township, started their joint venture into Columbiana County agriculture in the mid-1950s with three small boys and 10 acres. While their family grew with seven more children, they built a potato, grain and specialty crop farm and beef cattle operation that was known statewide, while also building their community and serving youth and charitable causes across Columbiana County. By the early 1990s, High Hope Farms encompassed some 1,000 acres.

Joann, a lifelong learner, participated in Ohio Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association conventions and kept abreast of trends, specialized equipment, insects and diseases. Joann, Carl and later their sons, worked closely with Ohio State University Extension and other professionals to improve farm production and management practices. Joann was early to adopt computerized record keeping, and her dedication to learning and records management were key to the farm’s success.

Community service was an integral part of the Garwoods’ lives. Both were 4-H advisors when their children were growing up, and Carl was a member of the steer committee.

Carl also had a passion for education and served 16 years as a member of the Crestview Local School Board, and also served on the board of the Columbiana County Career and Technical Center, providing leadership for the building of the career center facility. Carl also served local residents as a Fairfield Township trustee for 16-1/2 years, leading the efforts to purchase the old Fairfield School property and its subsequent conversion into the township’s government center.

ored, and framed portraits and biographical sketches of each individual will be unveiled. The biographies of the previous inductees are permanently displayed in the Arts & Crafts Building.

The Hall of Fame is a joint effort of the Columbiana County Historical Association, the Columbiana County Agricultural Society and the Columbiana County Farm Bureau. The awards are presented posthumously.

Hazel P. Hahn 1922-1990

In 1948, Hazel Hahn started a neighborhood 4-H club with the help of Mrs. George French. It was the beginning of Hahn’s dedication to the youth development program that would span 42 years. Through her 4-H volunteer work, Hahn impacted the lives of countless rural youth in Columbiana County and beyond.

The club — the West Township Jolly Girls — initially focused on nutrition and cooking projects, but grew to include sewing. Soon, there was an interest to expand, and boys joined the club, renamed the West Township Jolly Girls and Boys, which was later changed to the West Township Jolly 4-H’ers, and projects included livestock as well as the full breadth of 4-H offerings. In later years, the membership swelled to 20-30 youth each year, and the club earned state Honor Club distinction for several years.

The desire and ability to give the youth that personal touch makes Hahn stand out from the rest. She always urged the youth to put forth their best effort, and many earned county and state awards. Most members also did demonstrations for club meetings and county competitions, and quite a few were chosen to participate at the Ohio State Fair, where many earned Outstanding of the Day honors.

Her teaching did not stop at the local club. Hahn served on numerous county and regional committees, and, in 195556, she served on the first state 4-H advisory committee.

She also touched the lives of exchange students from across the globe. In 1955, the Hahn family hosted a student from Norway on their Holstein dairy farm, and in the 1980s, the Hahns hosted three students from Japan through the LABO International Exchange, as well as numerous students from other countries interested in agriculture.

Hazel and her husband, Frank, were active members of the Columbiana County Farm Bureau and the Buckeye Dairy Boosters. In 1985, Hazel Hahn was named the Columbiana County Female 4-H Advisor of the Year, and in 1987, she was inducted into the Ohio 4-H Hall of Fame. (Submitted Photos)

Carrollton Exempted Village School officials sentenced

COLUMBUS — Two former Carrollton Exempted Village Schools officials were sentenced to 30 days in jail for their roles in a scheme to profit from the sale of air purifiers to the district, Auditor of State Keith Faber announced.

Former Superintendent David Quattrochi and former school board member Michael Pozderac, along with former teacher Mary “Jackie” Pozderac, also were ordered to make restitution as part of sentences handed down in Carroll County Common Pleas Court July 18.

The three earlier admitted using shell companies to sell air purifiers

to the school district, pocketing the resulting profits. A fourth individual, Gus Nickolas, pleaded not guilty in the case and is scheduled for trial in September.

Quattrochi pleaded guilty to a single count of theft in office and was sentenced to 30 days in jail and 18 months in state prison, though the latter was stayed. Additionally, he was fined $1,000 and given three years of probation.

Michael Pozderac pleaded guilty to a single count of theft in office and was sentenced to 30 days in jail and 36 months in prison, the latter also stayed. Additionally, he was fined $1,500 plus court costs, or-

dered to complete 50 hours of community service, and given three years of probation. Mary Pozderac pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of having an unlawful interest in a public contract. She received a 180-day stayed jail sentence and was ordered to complete 50 hours of community service.

The three also paid $69,165 in restitution and $4,510 for their share of the audit costs. The Auditor of State’s Special Investigations Unit began investigating after learning that a vendor’s fax number listed on a purchase order was the same as a golf course owned by Michael Pozderac.

Shalersville

Historical Society to hold meeting Aug. 3

MANTUA, Ohio — The next meeting of the Shalersville Historical Society will be Aug. 3 at 7 p.m. at the museum, located at 9154 state Route 44.

Shalersville Historical Society meetings are open to the public and anyone interested in history is welcome to attend.

The Shalersville Historical Society is currently looking for a picture of the house at 9135 state Route 44 that was taken before the two picture windows were installed across the front of the house sometime after 1950. This two-story white house is the last house on the west side of state Route 44 before the stoplight.

Any reader that finds a picture of the house in an old album or stash of old photos should call Judy Richardson at 330-389-0598 or call Judy Thornton at 330-527-7669 to submit information, memories or copies of photos.

The Shalersville Historical Society’s museum will be open to residents and visitors Aug. 6 from 2-5 p.m. Visitors will be able to chat with curator Judy Richardson, ask questions, look at old maps of Shalersville and share their family’s history.

The activity is part of Pennsylvania 4-H’s summer free trial period, during which youth throughout the state can experience a sampling of 4-H projects through a series of online activities designed to be fun and interactive.

Participation in the trial does not automatically enroll youth in 4-H.

Organizers request that participants bring the following items: any type of scrap cotton material; fabric scissors; Aleenes Fabric Fusion Adhesive, or a similar product; paint; pattern pieces, which can be downloaded and printed; and any size canvas. Instructors will use a canvas that is 8 inches by 8 inches. Participants must register by July 30. More information about the Cloverbuds session is available on the Penn State Extension website at extension.psu.edu/cloverbud-fabricmosaic. Information about the general session can be found at extension.psu.edu/fabric-mosaic.

Alliance Historical Society honors its longest tenured board member

ALLIANCE, Ohio — The Alliance Historical Society marked its Founders’ Day by paying tribute to a man who spent more time on its board than anyone else in its history.

A small group gathered June 29 inside Haggart Hall at the Alliance YWCA — the exact site of the first meeting of the Alliance Historical Society on that date in 1939 — to pay homage to Joe Zelasko.

Zelasko, a retired teacher who spent 44 years in the Alliance City School District, has been a member of the board for 52 of the society’s 84 years, serving since April 1971.

Zelasko was bestowed with emeritus status and was presented with a clock by Alliance Historical Society President Karen Perone.

Alliance Mayor Alan Andreani, a

former student of Zelasko’s, issued a mayoral proclamation to declare June 29 as Joe Zelasko Day. In the proclamation, Andreani noted many of Zelasko’s accolades, including being named Teacher of the Year twice in addition to a special recognition given to him by the Class of 1975.

Zelasko came to Alliance in 1949, when the Armour Company transferred his father to its thennew facility at the site of the former Taylorcraft airplane plant. Zelasko graduated from Alliance High School in 1951 and then matriculated to Mount Union where he met his wife, Carol Speidel.

A member of the board of trustees for the Castle Crusaders, Zelasko gave many tours of Glamorgan Castle as well as serving as a docent at

the Mabel Hartzell Historical Home on behalf of the Alliance Historical Society. In addition, he conducted many interviews as part of an oral history project for the Society, all of which can be accessed at alliancememory.org or at Rodman Public Library.

Zelasko served as co-chair of the 1976 Alliance Bicentennial Committee with N. Yost Osborne, a librarian at Mount Union who also happened to be the person who asked Zelasko to join the Alliance Historical Society Board. For his efforts, Zelasko received the Mayor’s Award in 1976 and in 1977 was honored with the Chamber of Commerce Carnation Ambassador Award. Later, he was named Citizen of the Year in 2001, the year after he retired from teaching.

Event connects quilt and historic clothing enthusiasts with curators

ZOAR, Ohio — Historic Zoar Village will host Ask a Curator on Saturday, Aug. 5 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in the Bimeler Museum. Attendees can bring family heirlooms and antique shop finds like a grandmother’s wedding dress or a historic quilt, to learn more about their origins.

Becky Preiss Odom and Marlise Schoeny, curators with the Ohio History Connection, will answer questions about these items and also discuss artifacts in Zoar’s cur-

rent “History in Pieces” quilt exhibit, which is open through October.

“Becky and Marlise have traveled the state helping people learn more about their favorite historical pieces, and we are excited to bring them to Tuscarawas County and the surrounding area,” said Tammi Shrum, site director. “Quilts and clothes play a bigger role in history than people think and were cherished for their functionality, art form and storytelling.”

Odom has been a curator and

coordinator at Ohio History Connection for eight years and earned a PhD in American Studies from Saint Louis University in 2014.

Schoeny is a 2007 graduate of The Ohio State University and has a master’s degree in textile and clothing. Before joining Ohio History Connection as a history coordinator, she was a senior instructor at The Art Institute of Ohio and assistant curator at Ohio State.

AUCTIONEER’S NOTE: Chris Brown grew up in Lowell, Ohio. He was an avid outdoorsman. He loved the challenge of shooting, whether he was standing upright or later in life shooting from his wheelchair. He always looked forward to the camaraderie with his friends at the gun clubs as well as the solitude of the woods. Over the years, Chris was able to amass a highly desirable collection of guns. Each gun has a history and unique story behind it. Each piece valued for its precision, beauty, rarity and sentiment. It was Chris’ wish that others have the opportunity to purchase and appreciate these special items, as he did.

Seabolt: A pearl of a Gran

(Continued from Page B1)

Gran has a very large family. In addition, she has a slew of “adopted” families too. I’m forever trying to identify the faces beaming back at me from birth announcements and school portraits she has displayed. Who ARE these people? Fortunately, there is no jealousy among the ranks.

She has a knack for making us each secretly believe that WE are definitely her favorite.

Now, we gather and visit en masse. We spend hours at her bedside where she regales us with memories of her life — and her memories of ours. She is my final tie to that generation. I cannot fathom that I will no longer have grandparents on this earth.

Legacy. She is a very glamorous woman. She was, throughout my entire life, always on trend and impeccable in her home, style and social life. My childhood memories are of lavish theme parties and her flawlessly beautiful calligraphy handwriting on correspondence. She was my first pen pal, after all.

Her Christmas breakfasts were legendary. She traveled internationally in Genoa, Italy; in the mid-1960s, she shared an elevator with The Beatles. She mentions this almost never.

It is an afterthought. I would like to think John, Paul, George and Ringo were suitably impressed to be meeting HER. They certainly should have been.

When we lost grandpa, I worried that she would soon follow. She vowed, however, that she wanted to see her grandchildren graduate college, which she did when the last few finished up last year.

She saw GirlWonder’s wedding and that of another grandson and his lovely bride. She met BoyWonder’s fiance and saw a great-grandchild start college.

It feels silly to be so shocked that a woman in her 90s isn’t going to share this life with me forever. Yet I do. Her brother is 100 years old. I want more time. In my mind, there is SO MUCH left for her to see. She tells us, however, that she is, quite simply, done. She assures us that she will be with us always — in spirit.

In all our visits to her home, Gran always waved goodbye when anyone left. She would stand on the porch in all weather and wave until the car was out of sight. I honestly don’t know if I can visit that address knowing I won’t see her waving from the porch as we leave. Now, it seems we are slowly waving her off to her Heavenly home.

A true gem. GirlWonder wears one perfect pearl dangling from a gold chain around her neck. She has done so since receiving this necklace as a gift from Gran. This pearl was plucked from an heirloom quality “opera length” pearl necklace. It had belonged to Gran — a gift from her own mother 70 years ago.

It was deemed by Gran to be “out of date for young women today.” She had the necklace dismantled and pearls distributed among various, classically simple jewelry. I don’t think our daughter has missed wearing it a single day since. It is the perfect touch to her style — and her heart.

The story of the necklace embodies so much of Gran herself. She was, is, and will forever remain a true gem for our family, spreading pearls of wisdom and love to be cherished through the years.

KOVELS®

Antiques & Collecting

By Terry and Kim Kovel

Antique toys can give us a glimpse into the time they were made. Even if they are not exact models, we can get ideas of the cars people drove, how they dressed and furnished their homes and what professions they had or pastimes they enjoyed.

If antique toys teach us about the past, they taught the children who played with them about the future. Toy cars, trains, farm tools, dolls and dollhouses prepared children for their adult responsibilities.

This miniature tin factory was made by Gebruder Bing (Bing Brothers), a German company that was making metal toys by the 1880s. It became one of the largest toy manufacturers in the world and is famous for its toy vehicles (cars, trains and boats) and steam engines.

This toy factory, which sold for $4,864 at Morphy Auctions, may have been an educational model to train factory workers, a more seri-

Q. I’d like to know how best to take care of a Bradley & Hubbard lamp that has been in my family for over 100 years. The base is very large and heavy. It has a reverse-painted umbrella shade and is from about 1910.

A. Bradley & Hubbard was founded in 1854 by Nathaniel Bradley, his brother, William, and his brother-inlaw, Walter Hubbard. The company made clocks, sewing machines and other products. Kerosene lamps were made beginning in the 1860s.

The company was reorganized as Bradley and Hubbard Manufacturing Co. in 1875. It became a division of the Charles Parker Co. in 1940. Production of Bradley & Hubbard lamps ceased in the early 1950s.

Lamps with reverse-painted glass shades should be kept away from sun-

light and heat, which can damage the colors. Don’t use a lightbulb that’s too hot. Reverse-painted glass should never be washed, just dusted. Use a clean, soft cloth and don’t apply too much pressure. It could scratch the glass or cause it to crack.

PENNSYLVANIA

Pest hotline. A Penn State Extension toll-free hotline that provides quick updates on the latest disease and pest management issues for Pennsylvania vegetable, fruit and greenhouse growers has expanded to include new topics for the 2023 growing season.

While the hotline is designed primarily for growers who do not use computer technology to make timely crop management decisions, anyone can call 800-PENN-IPM to access pest and disease updates.

Penn State Extension faculty specialists and county-based educators record 90-second messages about critical concerns they see on produce farms and greenhouses across the state. The team meets regularly to discuss the latest production issues related to insects, diseases and plant nutrition. Messages typically are updated weekly or more frequently if needed.

Anyone with phone service can access the hotline, providing a way for extension specialists to reach the Plain community and other growers with important crop management information. The hotline was upgraded and expanded for 2023 to feature dedicated lines for the cut flower industry, for agronomic crops and industry updates, and for weather conditions and forecasts.

Listeners can contact a county office of Penn State Extension to receive a printed copy of these instructions by mail. Callers can reach out to their local extension educators to suggest topics that should be addressed or crops that should receive a dedicated message box on the hotline.

Triple H Farms hosts breakfast

METAMORA, Ohio — Triple H Farms opened its farm to nearly 3,000 guests June 24 for the 2023 Breakfast on the Farm event.

Guests of all ages enjoyed a free, locally produced breakfast and a self-guided tour of a modern grain, tomato and beef farm. More than 350 volunteers helped make the day a success.

Triple H Farms is a fifth-generation family farm operated by the Tommy and Jenny Herr family in partnership with Tom Sr. and Lynn Herr.

The Herr Century Farm has operated since 1910 when it originally began on US 20, west of Assumption, growing grain, vegetables and tomatoes for the Toledo and Detroit markets.

In 1990, the farm was incorporated to be Triple H Farms, Inc. and con-

StartS

tinues to grow corn, soybeans, wheat, hay, tomatoes and beef today. Triple H Farms is a member of the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association, the Gerald Grain Co-Op and lifelong members of Fulton County Farm Bureau.

The tour included opportunities to meet the Herr family, other local farmers and agriculture specialists to learn about growing various crops. Guests also had an opportunity to visit cows, calves, horses and other farm animals to learn about animal well-being. Other educational stations shared information about water quality, grain bin safety, tomato processing, nutrient management and bees. There were also children’s activities and the opportunity to interact with a variety of commodity groups.

online only

Breakfast on the Farm donated nearly $3,000 of excess food to the Ronald McDonald House in Toledo, The St Vincent De Paul Society at Holy Trinity Catholic Church, in Assumption and the SeaGate Food Bank of NW Ohio. Proceeds from T-shirt sales, which included $500, will be donated to the Fulton County FFA Chapters.

Fulton County Breakfast on the Farm was coordinated by Fulton Soil and Water Conservation District, Ohio Farm Bureau Fulton County, and The Ohio State University Extension-Fulton County along with a community-based planning committee. To see more photos and videos of the 2023 BOTF event visit the BOTF Facebook page at facebook.com/fultoncountybreakfastonthefarm.

Don’t flunk food safety this school year

WASHINGTON — A healthy meal is more than selecting nutritious foods; it also includes safe food handling from the moment it’s being prepared and up until lunchtime. Would you pass or fail the safe lunch packing test?

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has tips for parents and caregivers to get an easy A in food safety this school year.

Clean. A recent USDA observational study on food preparation showed that only 44% of participants attempted to wash their hands before meal preparation, a failing grade no matter how you look at it.

Even fewer participants (3%) washed their hands properly by rubbing hands for at least 20 seconds. Proper handwashing practices can help prevent cross-contamination when preparing school lunches.

Follow these steps to earn an A+ in handwashing:

• Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap and apply soap.

• Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap.

• Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds.

• Rinse your hands well under clean, running water.

• Dry your hands using a clean towel.

Separate. The kitchen can become a playground for bacteria when food is mishandled during preparation. To avoid cross-contamination, separate raw foods from those that are ready to eat during preparation. Don’t use the same cutting board for raw foods and readyto-eat foods like fruits and vegetables.

Having multiple cutting boards can help, but if you are only using one, make sure that you wash it in hot soapy water, sanitize, rinse, and air or pat dry with a clean paper towel between uses.

Cook. Cooking enough meat and poultry to use later in school lunches is a great time saver. But never rely on the color or texture of your meat and poultry to know if it is safe to

consume. The only safe way to tell if it has been cooked to a safe minimum internal temperature is by using a food thermometer. Let the thermometer do all the hard work to help you pass the “Is it done yet?” test.

Chill. You’ll pass the final food safety exam by never leaving food out of refrigeration for over two hours. Leaving food out too long at room temperature can cause bacteria to grow to dangerous levels that can cause illness.

Bacteria grow most rapidly in the range of temperatures between 40 F and 140 F, doubling in number in as little as 20 minutes. This range of temperatures is often called the “Danger Zone.”

If you will be cooking more than you will pack, make sure you store your leftovers safely in sealed containers or airtight packaging. To do this, cut food into smaller pieces or divide large amounts of food into shallow containers to allow food to cool rapidly. Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or can remain safe indefinitely when frozen.

Pack. When packing the school lunch, ditch the brown paper bag. Always pack school lunches in insulated lunch boxes or insulated containers to keep perishable foods safe until lunchtime.

For cold foods, include at least two cold sources in the insulated lunch box to keep perishable foods

under 40 F. These can be frozen gel packs, frozen juice boxes or frozen bottled water. By lunchtime, juice boxes or bottled water should be thawed and ready to drink.

For hot foods, use an insulated container to keep food like soup, chili and stew hot. Fill the container with boiling water, let stand for a few minutes, empty and then pour in the piping hot food. Keep the insulated container closed until lunchtime to keep the food hot — 140 F or above. Other options. Non-perishable foods are also a great option when it comes to food safety. Items that do not require refrigeration will be safe past lunchtime and are the perfect addition to school lunch boxes.

• pre-packaged, shelf-stable meals;

• whole or dried fruits like apples and bananas;

• whole vegetables like baby carrots and cherry tomatoes;

• hard cheeses like cheddar, gouda and parmesan;

• grains like bread and crackers;

• jerky-like beef, chicken or other meats.

Read more about USDA’s four steps to food safety and get your food-safe lunch questions answered by calling the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-888-674-6854, email MPHotline@ usda.gov or chat live at ask.usda.gov from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday.

Trees keep ‘friends’ close and ‘enemies’ guessing

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. —

Around the globe, forests are facing unprecedented challenges. They’re grappling with wildfires, diseases, droughts and deforestation. The survival of these great forests hinges on their ability to regrow — and for many trees, a process called masting is key to this regeneration.

Masting — the unpredictable boom-and-bust cycle of seed production — can have profound consequences for plant populations and the food webs that are built on their seeds. But the complex relationship between seed-production cycles and seed consumers and dispersers has been poorly understood.

A new study by an international team of scientists that included millions of tree-year observations worldwide, published in Nature Plants, documents and analyzes the intricate balance between seed defense and dispersal by forest trees at a global scale. Confusing predators. Seeds,

AnGLInS

fruits and nuts — high in carbohydrate, fat and protein content — are among the highest quality plant foods in nature, noted the study’s lead author Tong Qiu, assistant professor in Penn State’s College of Agricultural Sciences. When there are a lot of seeds, seed consumers such as birds, squirrels and insects have a feast. Their populations grow because there is plenty of food for them to eat and feed their offspring. But in the years following a mast, when seed production is low, these animals might struggle to find enough food, and this could lead to a drop in their populations.

Erratic seed crops may help trees confound their seed predators, but Qiu and other researchers wondered how they affect the seed dispersers the trees may rely on to ensure successful germination. The team hypothesized that if unreliable seed production has the same negative impacts on valued seed dispersers, then perhaps the tree species that rely most heavily on

animal disperser species must forego inconsistent seed production as a defensive option. Keeping friends. Three elements of masting, based on 12 million treeyear observations worldwide, were introduced in the paper. The first is volatility, which reflects the number of seeds fluctuating year to year. The second is periodicity, which refers to the time interval between the years of high seed production. Third is synchronicity, representing a common trend where many trees bear large seed crops in the same years. However, there is a problem with this explanation for masting, pointed out the study’s senior author James Clark, Nicholas Distinguished Professor of Environmental Science at Duke University, who has built the Mast Inference and Forecasting network, better known as MASTIF.

The same tree species that attract seed predators may also depend on mammals and birds to disperse their

seeds, he suggested. These mutualist dispersers are so valuable that many tree species pack their fruits and nuts with extra resources and feature colorful displays to attract them.

Findings. In the paper, the researchers evaluated whether the unreliable seed production that thwarts a tree’s enemies had the same negative impacts on its friends. If masting effectively guards against enemies — and it does, they confirmed — then perhaps the tree species that rely most heavily on animal dispersers consistently produce seeds from one year to the next.

With few mutualist dispersers, conifers are prime candidates to use masting as a defense. Firs, pines and spruce fall prey to birds and many rodents in the canopy and on the forest floor, Clark added. In the tree, conifers can defend their seeds in woody, resin-coated cones, many of which are armed with spines. Once on the forest floor, the exposed seeds are rapidly depleted by rodents.

Nutrient and climate gradients also play a role in masting, the researchers reported. Masting is more common in cold and dry places. Tree species that require a lot of nutrients tend to have low year-to-year changes in seed production. Tree species often found in nutrient-rich, warm and wet areas show shorter time intervals between high-seed-production years.

Tree species that produce rich, colorful fruits avoid wild fluctuations because they depend on their animal dispersers, according to Clark. However, there is still plenty of year-to-year variation because a large, expensive fruit is sensitive to moisture stress.

Researchers from 70 institutions contributed to the Nature Plants paper. Principal funding came from the National Science Foundation, the Belmont Forum, NASA and France’s Programme d’Investissement d’Avenir (Make Our Planet Great Again) initiative.

Now Here’s A Tip

By Jo Anne Derson

• They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but in today’s digital age, storing and displaying our treasure trove of images can take some craft work. For a lovely, cheap display, find frames of varying designs in secondhand stores. Remove the glass and lay them out on newspaper. Spray-paint them all the same color and, when dry, frame and hang your favorites in a very cohesive grouping!

• “When on vacation, it’s really easy to take hundreds of pictures, but when you upload them to the computer, it’s hard to find the gems in the mass of files. Spend some time each day reviewing the pictures on your camera, and delete the redundant ones and pics that are obviously not keepers.”

— E.L. in Illinois

• “When my sisters and I get together (there are five of us), we each bring a flash drive with about 50 good, recent family pictures. One sister is a technical whiz, and she put all the pictures together and loads them back on the flash drives, labeled with the date. And then we all watch a picture slideshow together and share our stories.”

— G.B. in Georgia

• Save your favorite family photos to a disk and give a copy to a trusted friend. That way, if anything should happen to your computer/home/etc., you’ll still have those pictures.

• “My mother-in-law has a digital photo frame, and about every six months we send her a new flash drive to plug into the back of it. She does not have a computer, so she enjoys the picture show and can go back to the old pictures as well whenever she wants just by plugging a different drive into the frame. What a great way to share photos with a different generation.”

— A.T. in Missouri (Information courtesy of JoAnn Derson. Send your tips to Now Here’s a Tip, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. ©2023 King Features Synd., Inc.)

ginia; second place went to Kristen Houser, Pennsylvania; and third place went to Cholee Roell, New Jersey.

State Scrapbook. The state scrapbook contest gives each state the chance to tell the story of activities and events their Junior Holstein associations take part in each year. The books were judged on the cover, news clippings, photo organization, originality, and variety of activities. Illinois earned first place and New England earned second place.

Digital State Scrapbook. State Junior Holstein Associations also had the opportunity to participate in the Digital Scrapbook Contest. This contest is judged on the same criteria as a traditional scrapbook, but entries must be presented on a computer or another digital format. The top five finishing states were as follows: first, Iowa; second, California; third, Missouri; fourth, Ohio; and fifth, New England.

State Banner. The state banner competition allows states to creatively showcase their associations, displayed throughout the week at the convention. Judges assess the banners based on the promotion of state, Holstein-related, attractiveness, originality and overall appearance. The top three states were as follows: first, Virginia; second, California; and third, Michigan.

Mission Membership. One state is recognized each year for increasing its membership. The honor is calculated on a percentage increase from Jan. 1 to June 1 of the convention year. Minnesota took home the honor in 2023 for the second year in a row, with a membership increase of 24 new members.

NHWSO Scholarships. Three Junior Holstein members were awarded scholarships by the National Holstein Women’s Scholarship Organization during the convention. This year’s recipients receiving scholarships were Emory Bewley, Doreen Dyt and Irene Nielsen.

Junior Advisory Committee. Three new youth representatives were elected to the National Junior Advisory Committee during the National Junior Forum. Gabriella Taylor was elected to the Area 1 position, Aubree Topp was elected to the Area 2 position and Clarissa Ulness was elected to the At-Large position.

The JAC is the governing body of the Junior Association and oversees the organization’s activities. Youth committee members are elected by the Junior membership at the National Junior Forum, and members serve two-year terms.

most 300 feet in caves, we were flipping the script while visiting West Virginia. The New River Gorge Bridge is the third tallest bridge in the United States. It is 876 feet above the New River. At the time of completion in 1977, it was the world’s tallest bridge for a regular vehicular roadway.

sets of stairs to reach the bottom viewing platform. There, we met up with the rest of our family who were peering down at the river, hoping to see some white water rafts cruising down the river. I took my time, looking up at the bridge and also admiring the rocky landscape in the riverbed area.

I am certainly a creature of habit. I have a few campgrounds that I love to return to year after year. Planning a camping trip to three new locations was like walking up to the edge of a cliff, thrilling and a little terrifying at the same time.

Following a visit to Mammoth Cave National Park and Carters Cave State Park, our final destination was New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia.

Breathtaking bridge. After hanging out underground at depths of al-

I had seen the bridge in pictures, but I had underestimated its enormous size and staggering proportions. My daughter and I started down the wooden steps, unable to see the bridge until we reached the first platform. Very few things render me speechless, but the bridge left me with only one word, “Wow!”

That was it. That was all I could say as I looked at the bridge spanning the gorge above the New River.

The height of the bridge is not the only impressive feature, it is also extremely long. The steel arch bridge connects the two sides, across a distance of 3,030 feet long. Nestled in the Appalachian Mountains, the steel supports stand tall like the surrounding native trees.

We continued down the next few

Building the bridge improved travel time by over 45 minutes from one side of the gorge to the other. It also improved the local economy and increased tourism to the area.

President Jimmy Carter established the New River Gorge as a National River. In late December 2020, the designation was changed to the New River Gorge National Park and Reserve, making it the nation’s newest national park.

We took our time taking a few pictures of the bridge, but for no reason at all, climbing all the steps back up to the parking lot became some sort of race. I lost the informal event, but I held my own with some loud huffing and puffing.

The first time I drove across the bridge, I held the steering wheel whiteknuckled and refused to look around. As a passenger, I was brave enough to

look around at the surrounding mountains and admire the dense forests.

Committee selected to allocate Beaver Co. funds

PITTSBURGH — The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection announced the members of a steering committee who will be tasked with developing a protocol to allocate $5 million in funding for community projects in Beaver County.

The Shapiro Administration secured the funding as part of its settlement of air quality violations by Shell Chemical Appalachia, LLC during the commissioning of its cracker plant in Potter Township.

The $5 million Environmental Mitigation Community Fund is one of the largest funds in Pennsylvania history and is a direct result of Governor Shapiro taking action to hold Shell accountable and deliver real results for Western Pennsylvania. This multi-million dollar payment secured by the Shapiro Administration is going to provide real help for affected Pennsylvania communities.

In accordance with the May 24, 2023, consent order and agreement,

EQUINE CALENDAR

OEJ convened a steering committee to develop the process to allocate funds for community projects. The protocol will also outline the process for seeking, evaluating, and supporting projects and the creation of a financial entity to hold the funds.

The 17-member steering committee is comprised of representatives from organizations serving Beaver County and those spearheading environmental justice within DEP.

Steering Committee members include Terrie Baumgardner, Clean Air Council, BMAC; Kolbe Cole, TRAILS Ministries; Veronica Coptis, Taproot Earth; Roger Davis, Community College of Beaver County; Lisa DePaoli, Center for Coalfield Justice, DEP Environmental Justice Advisory Board; Cindy Gormley, Aliquippa Economic Development Corporation; Mary Lou Harju, United Way of Beaver County; Heather Hulton VanTassel, Three Rivers Waterkeeper; Cheryl King, Franklin Center of Beaver County;

A WRANGLER’S RECKLESS WRITINGS

The Chess Player

The old man’s name was Johnson and he loved the game of chess. But his eyes and face weren’t normal, kinda creepy I’d confess.

Johnson always had his game of chess set out to play. He’d move his pawn ahead one square, and then he’d look my way.

You never really knew if we were eyeing face to face. ‘Cuz Johnson’s eyes were both askew. A vision to erase.

His left eye tilted out a bit. You’d say a might cockeyed. The right eye never made a move. Some said, “Looked like it died.”

I moved my knight out from a pawn. I’d planned no strategy. And then I quizzed him ‘bout his eyes. This time they stared through me.

Old Johnson hesitated, then he moved his knight out front. He said when he was younger, he had tried a stupid stunt.

He didn’t bother telling me just what the heck he did. So, I moved my pawn and figured Johnson kept things under lid.

But it didn’t take old Johnson long to warm up to a boy, who listened to his stories, trying never to annoy.

I was prob’ly ten years old, first time I saw his face. My father told me, “This gentle man will stay here at our place.”

He said, “I’d like it if you’d keep an eye on this old man. He’s been homeless since forever, living in a broke down van.

“Your job will be to keep the bunkhouse stocked with food and such. Canned peaches and some tins of spam, he ain’t used to having much.”

So every night past supper I would listen to each tale, how he’d waited for the enemy and fought ‘em tooth and nail.

He showed me how to play the game of chess and every rule. But most of all I learned from him, “A loose mouth proves a fool.”

He taught me, “Always show respect. Be true to all your kin.” And how my folks were kind enough to take an old man in.

One morning I woke early. Thought I’d check the bunkhouse out. And there lay old man Johnson. He was dead. I had no doubt.

Most younger boys would be afraid to find death all alone. But me, I stood there thinking. “Johnson’s found his way back home.”

The sites at Babcock State Park had electricity and water. Not only that, the campground was peaceful and quiet, located in a densely forested area. My husband and I watched deer in the woods right from our campsite.

There were many trails in the state park and near the gorge in the national park. At Babcock State Park, we explored the area near the Glade Creek Grist Mill. Bubbling waterfalls tumbled down the rock-strewn stream. A wooden swing with “Almost Heaven” carved into the frame created a picture-perfect spot with the mill in the background.

We hiked one short trail next to the mill called Island in the Sky. The name implies a steady climb in elevation, and we were not disappointed. The trail was only 0.7 miles in length but was straight uphill with some steep parts with cliff edges.

The final ascent also had wooden planks to climb and conquer. The view at the top was worth the effort. Delicate mountain laurel blooms were just starting to bloom. On the way down, we took our time and looked into some small caves and climbed over boulders near the trail.

We learned that hiking areas in the national park are very spread apart in a large area. We had to drive to reach the Grandview Rim Trail. The hiking was fairly easy, but several spots did have a steep drop-off on one side.

The view from the main overlook was beautiful and has earned the nickname “Horseshoe Bend of the East,” a comparison to a portion of the Colorado River in Page, Arizona. We also hiked Castle Rock Trail which had a difficulty rating of strenuous. The sights were awe inspiring but the trail was quite challenging.

We had one final day in the New River Gorge area and chose to spend it on a lake with floating obstacles. It was a comedy show and we were the main event as we slid and fell multiple times.

Somewhere on our trip between scrambling over rocks and climbing mountainsides, we truly began to appreciate the wild wilderness that defines West Virginia.

The cleaning station at the ODNR Division of Wildlife Mazurik Fishing Access provides space for anglers to cut and filet their fish, running water to clean their catch and a grinder that disposes of the remains. Along with the fish cleaning station, ADA-compliant restrooms were also installed. The cost of the project was $1.1 million.

Wetland grants available via ODNR

COLUMBUS — As part of Gov. Mike DeWine’s H2Ohio Initiative, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources has opened its application process for the 2023 wetland grant program. H2Ohio seeks to fund high-quality natural infrastructure that reduces nutrient runoff and improves water quality.

The H2Ohio Statewide Wetland Grant Program is a reimbursement grant program that provides upto-100% funding for projects across Ohio. Each project’s budget must be justified in the application with a minimum funding request of $50,000. There is no maximum funding cap.

This competitive grant program was once only open to projects in the Ohio River Basin. Now, the statewide program has been expanded to also include projects in the Central Lake Erie Basin. In 2021, the state announced $5 million in grants for 13 wetland projects in 11 counties.

Last year, ODNR announced the selection of nine wetland projects with $3 million in grant funding.

Types of eligible H2Ohio projects include the following:

• Wetland creation;

• Hydrologic restoration of wetlands on hydric soils;

• Hydrologic enhancement of existing wetlands, floodplains and riparian corridors;

• Stream, conservation channel design and floodplain restoration;

• Restoration of forested riparian buffers;

• Acid Mine Drainage abatement projects;

• Dam removal and associated restoration;

• Property acquisition if associated with water quality restoration project; and

• Stormwater retention and/or green infrastructure projects.

Grant applications must be submitted to ODNR’s H2Ohio Program in a searchable PDF format by Aug. 25. H2Ohio projects in the Western Lake Erie Basin watershed are funded in an open, rolling framework outside of this competitive process. Interested applicants with projects located in the following Western Lake Erie Basin watershed counties are eligible for alternative H2Ohio funding: Williams, Defiance, Paulding, Van Wert, Mercer, Auglaize, Shelby, Allen, Putnam, Henry, Fulton, Lucas, Wood, Hancock, Hardin, Ottawa, Sandusky, Seneca, Wyandot, Marion, Crawford, Erie, Huron and Richland. If your project is located in one of these counties, contact H2Ohio@dnr.ohio.gov before submitting an H2Ohio Wetland Grant Program application.

Farmland preserved by Western Reserve Land Conservancy

CANAAN TOWNSHIP, Ohio —

A 43-acre parcel of land in Wayne County was recently preserved by landowners Josh and Joanna Keplar and the Western Reserve Land Conservancy.

The property is largely agricultural but contains forest borders, wet fields and wetlands that provide excellent feeding, breeding and nesting habitat for a variety of bird and bat species. According to natural resource surveys, 10 rare, threatened or endangered species have been confirmed on site, including tri-colored bat and red-headed woodpecker.

The conservancy plans to restore wetlands and upland prairie and plant trees in order to reclaim the agricultural land, which is adjacent to a 50-acre property owned by the Wayne County Park District that Josh Keplar’s grandmother donated in her will in 2018.

The property was once part of a 400-acre farm located at the corner of Parameter Road and SR604. The farmland has been in the family for four generations. Josh Keplar’s grandmother never married and did not have children of her own, but she fostered children including Josh’s mother.

Shakespeare Festival to visit James A. Garfield National Historic Site

MENTOR, Ohio — The National Park Service is pleased to announce that the Cleveland Shakespeare Festival will perform Measure for Measure on the grounds of Mentor’s James A. Garfield National Historic Site at 7 p.m. on July 29. The performance is free of charge and open to the public.

Those attending are invited to bring drinks, insect repellant, lawn chairs and anything else needed for their own comfort. Picnic baskets are welcomed; alcoholic beverages are prohibited. Parking will be available at James A. Garfield National Historic Site and next door at Faith Lutheran Church.

“This is one of our favorite summer events,” said site manager Todd Arrington. “James and Lucretia Garfield both loved Shakespeare and often noted in their diaries and letters which plays they were reading or seeing performed on the stage.

The open lawn behind the Garfield home is a perfect spot for outdoor theater.”

To learn more about the Cleveland Shakespeare Festival, please visit clevelandshakespeare.org.

James A. Garfield National Historic Site is located at 8095 Mentor Avenue (U.S. 20) in Mentor, Ohio, approximately 25 miles east of Cleveland. The site offers guided tours of the Garfield home, museum exhibits, two outdoor cell phone tours and an introductory film. The National Park Service completely restored the house in the late 1990s, making it one of the most impressive presidential homes preserved for the public.

For information call 440-2558722; write 8095 Mentor Avenue, Mentor, Ohio, 44060 or visit nps. gov/jaga. Find the site via @GarfieldNPS on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Biotechnology offers holistic approach to restoration of at-risk forest tree species

By Steve Koppes

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Many at-risk forest tree species will probably need biotechnology along with traditional tree-breeding approaches to survive, according to insights published in the July issue of the journal New Forests.

Purdue University’s Douglass Jacobs and Kasten Dumroese of the U.S. Forest Service led a team of 19 co-authors, including scientists, land managers and regulators, in presenting their findings on biotechnological risk assessment and forest tree restoration. Their New Forests paper, published in a special issue on threatened tree species, presents key outcomes of a 2021 virtual international conference on the issues.

Among their conclusions: Society drives policy. If genetic engineering is the only way to save some species, its use will require public acceptance.

“Biotechnology is a diverse toolkit comprising different technologies that can be used to impart pest resistance – it could be bugs or pathogens – in our threatened forest trees,” said Jacobs, the Fred M. van Eck Professor of Forest Biology. But many people mistakenly equate biotechnology with genetic engineering.

“Traditional tree breeding, whether you’re breeding different species or different varieties within species, has been going on for thousands of years. And the regulations on planting trees that have been traditionally bred are wide open,” he said. “Genetic engineering, on the other hand, is highly regulated, but all biotechnology is certainly not genetic engineering.”

Scientists often use genomics, for example, which involves working with the complete set of an organism’s genetic material, to learn more about what causes disease. Genomics also can help identify the genes responsible for useful traits such as pest resistance.

Blight began afflicting the Ameri-

can chestnut in the 1900s, killing billions of trees. Despite being the target of decades-long tree-breeding efforts, the chestnut’s prospects remain in doubt. The list of at-risk species also includes ash, butternut, and bristlecone pine among other members of the five-needle white pine family.

“I feel a sense of urgency. We can’t take a hundred years like we’ve taken with chestnut to turn the page,” said Dumroese, a research plant physiologist at the Forest Service’s Rocky Mountain Research Station in Idaho.

“The species are becoming ecologically extinct,” Dumroese said. “They’re not able to provide their historic level of ecosystem function because often they don’t grow to maturity. And that’s happening at a faster and faster pace. Look at how rapidly we’ve lost ash trees from our forests and urban landscapes because of the introduced insect pest emerald ash borer.”

The western white pine is an example of how the Forest Service has, starting in the 1960s, effectively used

traditional tree breeding to cope with white pine blister rust. The white pine population remains below its pre-blister-rust levels, however, and may never become fully restored.

“But we see a lot more western white pine on the landscape and being planted on the landscape every year because of those efforts,” Dumroese said. “That process only took a couple of decades where we come from a big problem to making improvements. We need that pace for all of the species that we’re calling at risk.”

Back in Indiana, the Hardwood Tree Improvement & Regeneration Center, a joint effort between Purdue and the Forest Service, for years has maintained a breeding program for pest resistance. Almost all of the center’s efforts to date have focused on traditional tree breeding and genomics.

“The chance to work with chestnut and help reintroduce it back to the landscape was a big reason I took the Purdue job in the first place back in December of 2001,” Jacobs said.

“Watching species disappear from the landscape provides me personally with a lot of motivation to contribute whatever I can toward helping to save some of these at-risk species.”

In the last 10 years, Jacobs has seen striking advancements in novel biotechnologies that use genomics and genetic engineering.

“For some species, traditional tree breeding doesn’t appear to be a viable long-term option to get disease-resistant trees. In those cases, it’s probably going to have to be genetic engineering if we want to save the species,” he said.

That applies even to a species like the blight-afflicted American chestnut, the target of a breeding program for 50 years. “Introducing enough chestnut and ash trees to bring us back to the pre-disturbance level is likely not possible in anyone’s lifetime, but you have to start somewhere,” Dumroese noted.

The participants of the 2021 conference came to a consensus on the applicability of biotechnology toward reintroducing some threatened forest tree species. They came from academia, the Forest Service, and organizations such as the American Chestnut Foundation and the Nature Conservancy.

“Societal perception and policy remain the weakest links,” Jacobs said. “There’s been this consistent one-way flow of information from scientists to the public with the idea of, ‘Hey, we’re scientists, trust us.’ Or ‘We’re the government, trust us.’ But you need a much more interactive dialogue to be successful in changing public opinion.”

Support for the conference and related work was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and National Institute of Food and Agriculture.

Farm and Dairy would like to remind you to SELL SMART.

BEWARE OF POTENTIAL BUYING SCAMS

Here are two situations where you need to be alarmed and vigilant

1. If the buyer of your equipment refuses to speak to you over the phone or in-person. Most buying scams happen via text messages and/or email.

2. If the buyer sends you a check in an amount HIGHER than the agreed upon price of your equipment, and then asks you (the seller) to refund the overpayment via wire transfer.

REMEMBER THE OLD ADAGE: IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT PROBABLY IS!

If this or a similar scam has happened to you, please do not hesitate to contact Farm and Dairy at 800-837-3419 or contact the Consumer Protection Division of the Attorney General of your state.
