TRENTON CITY COUNCIL Highway 6 Resurfacing
Ordinance OKs Move Project Forward A series of ordinances that would move forward resurfacing of Highway 6 through Trenton received approval from the Trenton City Council during a meeting on Monday night. The four ordinances outlined the area in which the project would take place in addition to designating the state as the bidder for the work, which would also include a water line replacement project the city plans to do along Ninth Street while the road work is being done. The Missouri Department of Transportation plans to let bids later this fall with plans to resurface the road early next spring. Resurfacing would take place at the west end of Trenton near Fourth Street to the Muddy Creek bridge on the east side of town. As part of the bidding process, the state would also bid out the city’s water line replacement work, which would also include curb to curb paving, new sidewalks and ADA ramps. It is estimated that the resurfacing project would cost around $1,770,000, with the city of Trenton paying $312,155 for its portion of the costs. Under the agreement, should the bid for the city’s cost be over the $312,155 amount, the city would be required to pay additional funding. A refund would be received if the bid was lower.

Apron and taxiway expansion at the Trenton Municipal Airport has been under way this summer with crews from Midwest Heavy Construction of Pleasant Hill pouring concrete during the night on Monday. The $1.045 million project is being paid for through a Federal Aviation Administration grant received by the city of Trenton and is one of several improvements being made at the airport.
Two other ordinances relinquish MoDOT ownership of portions of Princeton Road and Oklahoma Avenue to the city. The areas include a portion of Princeton Road (listed as Route AA by the state) from 28th Street to just west of the drive at Casey’s as well as the south end of Oklahoma Avenue near 10th Street (listed as Business 65 by the state). The city would assume maintenance of those areas once they are deeded over by the state. Votes authorizing the improvements to Highway 6 as well as relinquishing the two roads to the city were 7-0 with John Dolan absent. The

NUISANCE BOARD Monthly Meeting
Demo Help Cap Increase Sought The Building and Nuisance Board of the Trenton City Council will be asking the council to allow an increase in the amount the city will pay to help take down structures on the demolition list. During a meeting on Monday night, the board voted to increase the cap to $2,500. The city currently pays up to $1,750 of the cost to demolish a structure in which the owner also pays a portion of the cost. However, Code Enforcement Officer Donnie Vandevender said that with the additional money the city has put in the demolition budget, he feels that increasing the help provided might get more property owners to come forward and help pay for getting their dilapidated structures torn down. The current list of 22 properties has four owners who have agreed to help pay the demolition cost. Vandevender said that the average cost to tear down a one-story structure has been $5,250 while a two-story structure removal had an average cost of $7,770. Owners will still be required to pay all abatement costs. The board is anticipated to select properties on which it will seek bids for the 2019-20 demolition program at its meeting on Aug. 26.

A request for qualifications is currently being advertised and if an engineer is chosen, Urton said it did not mean the city would have to proceed with the plan. However, any work that would be done would require the city to match the FAA funding at a 10 percent level.

Personnel Highlights Trustee Meeting Action Trustees at North Central Missouri College took a lot of action during a relatively brief meeting held Tuesday evening on the campus. Several personnel items required action during the meeting, including acceptance of the resignation of Eric Penrod as residence hall coordinator, effective Aug. 9. Penrod, who also served as assistant men’s basketball coach, is moving to Colorado to take a director of operations position. Jennifer Triplett of Kansas City, was hired to fill the position of chief information officer, effective July 29. She replaces Alan Barnett, who recently retired, and will be paid $85,000 annually. Following an executive session, the board voted to approve a one-time stipend of $2,500 to Tami
vote on the maintenance agreement of Highway 6 was 5-2 with Glen Briggs and Lou Fisher voting no. Briggs said he felt the city was giving up too much in comparison to what the state is agreeing to do. There was also a 5-2 vote for the city to proceed with seeking requests for proposals for an engineer to develop plans for a new hangar. City Administrator Ron Urton said the city currently has $600,000 in FAA funding credits, but will lose $118,000 in FAA funding credits in September. He said the airport advisory committee has suggested the council look at using

Academic National Champions
NCMC Golf Wins Academic Title As the North Central Missouri College men’s golf program continues to grow on the course, awards in the classroom continue to roll in. North Central hit its biggest honor to date this week as the Golf Coaches Association of America recognized the Pirates as the 2019 NJCAA Division II Academic National Champions. The Pirates earned the honor along with Dodge City (NJCAA Division I), SCAD - Atlanta (NAIA), New Mexico (NCAA Division I), Newberry (NCAA Division II) and Augsburg (NCAA Division III). A total of 202 schools submitted GPA’s of 3.0 or above with 34 of those schools earning President’s Special Recognition
NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
Honors, finishing with a team GPA of 3.5 and above. To be eligible for GCAA Outstanding Team Academic honors, a college or university must submit GPAs for each player on their official squad list. “I think it’s great that the Golf Coaches Association of America put a high value on our academic achievements,” NCMC Coach Craig Sager said. “It is one thing to go out and play good golf, but it is another to do it while attending school full time. College golf is very time consuming and leaves very few hours in the day for course work.” Members of the team included Lewis Hopkinson, Scott Swayne, Jasper van der Zon, James Gardner, Cody Glenn, Lathan
Croy, Van Barr, Pirmin Kamm and Colton Barnes. In addition to the team award, Hopkinson was named one of 18 All-American Scholars at the NJCAA level. To be eligible for All-America Scholar status at the NJCAA level, students must be receiving their associate’s degree and be in their last year of athletic eligibility. They must participate in 50 percent of their team’s competitive rounds, have a stroke-average under 77.0 in NJCAA and maintain a minimum cumulative career GPA of 3.2. Hopkinson ended the season with 74.88 scoring average and a GPA of 3.62 to meet the requirements.
Kansas City Chiefs Training Camp
Chiefs’ Hill Ready To Go, Jones’ Status Still Up In Air ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — The biggest questions swirling around the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason centered on Tyreek Hill, and whether their speedy, record-setting wide receiver would be around at all this season. Turns out he'll be around for the start of camp. Chiefs coach Andy Reid confirmed Tuesday that Hill would report to Scanlon Hall on the campus of Missouri Western State University with the rest of the veterans on Friday, one week after the NFL said it would not punish him following an investigation into domestic violence involving his 3-year-old son. Hill has been away from the team since the draft in April, when audio first surfaced in which his then-fiancee, Crystal
Espinal, accused him of hurting their son. But an investigation by the Johnson County, Kansas, district attorney resulted in no criminal charges being filed, and a subsequent inquiry by the NFL that included an 8-hour meeting with Hill in Kansas City likewise turned up nothing. So when the NFL declined to punish Hill, the Chiefs likewise lifted their own suspension. "We look forward to bringing him back here and have an opportunity to get back doing what he loves to do," Reid said. "He has some obligations that he'll take care of as he goes. I'm not going to get into all that. But we have trust in Tyreek that we're going to go forward in a positive way here."
TAX CLASS
The Chiefs were negotiating a long-term contract with Hill when the controversy erupted, and it remains to be seen whether that outlook has changed. Hill is entering the final year of his rookie contract, and the Chiefs effectively control him for two more years through the franchise tag. His price before the off-thefield situation had never been higher, either. Hill was coming off a season in which he shattered the Chiefs' record with 1,479 yards receiving, and his 12 touchdown receptions and dangerous ability in the run and return games were a big reason why the Chiefs won the AFC West. "I've had a chance to talk to him on the phone, in person — spent quite a bit of time with him actually," Reid said. "He's remorseful that he's had to put all of us through what we went
through. I feel bad for him. That's a sensitive situation and you know, he wants to get back and he wants to do what he needs to do to be a father and a player here, so he's very conscious of that." Hill may have missed the Chiefs' voluntary summer practices and their mandatory three-day minicamp, but he's still been running routes and catching passes from Patrick Mahomes in impromptu workouts. "You always stay in touch with teammates and guys you built relationships with," Mahomes said. "We stayed in touch as much as possible as well as letting that stuff handle itself. It's good to welcome him back and be part of the team and build what we want to build." His return also takes some pressure off rookie Mecole Hardman, who was chosen in July 26-August 4

see whether he's here or not here," Reid said. "We obviously want him here and I think he probably wants to be here, too, but we'll see how all of that works out." The Chiefs overhauled their defense this offseason, replacing fired coordinator Bob Sutton with Steve Spagnuolo and shifting from a 3-4 base to a 43 system. And given how much time Jones has missed, that means a steep learning curve whenever he reports to camp. "You miss days, you miss days," Reid said, "but it's probably beneficial that he's here." NOTES: TE Travis Kelce will be ready to practice this week. He was held out of OTAs and minicamp because of ankle surgery. ...

the second round of the draft with the expectation that Hill could miss some — or even all — of the upcoming season. Just like Hill, the former Georgia standout is a speedster who can contribute in a variety of ways. "I'm glad Tyreek is back. I'm happy he's here," Hardman said. "I'm ready to learn from him, watch him practice, and just learn everything he can teach me. I'm ready to learn." Now that Hill is back in the fold, the big question is when Chris Jones will arrive. The star defensive tackle, who is coming off a 15½-sack season, is seeking his own long-term deal as he enters the final year of his rookie contract. Jones played hardball during the offseason by skipping the voluntary and mandatory workouts, even at the risk of a club fine, but he remains under contract and must report to training camp by Aug. 6 to earn an accrued season toward free agency.

What is MACRA? Medicare Access & CHIP Reauthorization (MACRA), individuals who are newly eligible for Medicare on or after January 1, 2020 will not be able to purchase Medigap Plan C or F (including the Plan F high deductible option). This is because after January 1, 2020, MACRA prevents individuals new to Medicare from purchasing Medigap plans that pay for the Part B deductible. If you are eligible for Medicare before this time but did not enroll, you will still be able to purchase Plan C or F as long as you are within your Medigap open enrollment period or have a guaranteed issue right once you enroll in Original Medicare. Remember that only those with Ordinal Medicare can purchase a Medigap Plan. If you currently have Medigap plan C or F, you can continue to renew it from insurers in your state. As always, premiums or Medigap plans can change from year to year, and Medigap issuers may choose to discontinue plan offerings. Your right to switch plans if your premiums increase depends on your state’s laws. If your Medigap is terminated, you will have a guaranteed issue period.

Record Fine Won’t End Scrutiny Of Facebook SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Facebook survived its latest brush with U.S. privacy regulators, at the cost of a record $5 billion fine and other restrictions imposed by the Federal Trade Commission. But it's far from home free. While the company looks set to prosper in the wake of the FTC case, it faces a series of other investigations into its privacy practices in Europe and across the U.S. Concerns over the limits of the just-settled probe could fuel efforts to craft tougher privacy laws at the state and federal level. The social network is also gearing up to fight investigations into its allegedly anticompetitive behavior, such as Facebook's habit of buying would-be rivals like Instagram and blatantly duplicating features introduced by competing services. The Department of Justice opened a broad antitrust probe focused on technology compa-
nies on Tuesday. On Wednesday Facebook disclosed that it also faces a fresh FTC investigation into alleged anticompetitive behavior. It didn't provide details of the scope or focus of the probe. Representatives of the FTC confirmed the antitrust investigation but offered no additional information. The outcome of these investigations may well determine whether the world's governments can actually rein in a transnational corporation that directly touches almost a third of the world's population. "There is a lot more to come on the regulatory front for Facebook," said Debra Aho Williamson, analyst with the research firm eMarketer. To pre-empt this and do things on
its own terms, Williamson said the company is "going to do whatever it can" to change its business model and change the way it gathers data. The FTC penalties, viewed by some as a stunning rebuke to the social network, might well crush a smaller firm. But they seem unlikely to faze Facebook — the fine, for instance, amounts to less than 10% of Facebook's annual revenue and not even a quarter of its annual profits. Some critics charge that that the FTC didn't deliver much more than a slap on the wrist. "Facebook makes that much money in a couple of weeks," said Siva Vaidhyanathan, a University of Virginia professor and author of "Antisocial Media: How Face-

book Disconnects Us and Undermines Democracy." The company is free to "get back to business as usual," he said. Wall Street seems to agree. Facebook's stock price climbed higher Wednesday after the deal was announced. The company is worth much more than it was when its Cambridge Analytica privacy scandal erupted back in March 2018. On Wednesday, Face-
book's market value hovered around $575 billion — roughly $40 billion above where it stood before the news of the abuses broke. Ashkan Soltani, a former FTC chief technologist, said the settlement was effectively "a get-out-of-jail free card for Facebook." The deal absolves Facebook of any consumerprotection claims prior to June 12 of this year, a highly un-
usual step that effectively wipes the slate clean where known historical privacy violations are concerned. Soltani and other critics also note that the FTC settlement barely touches Facebook's underlying business practices, which rely on the collection and analysis of its users' activities and personal details to fuel the company's lucrative advertising machine.

OP/ED
Five Points by Wendell Lenhart
Looking Forward To The Seawolves I really enjoyed reading Ronda’s article in last Friday’s paper about the Seawolves and their use during the Vietnam War. Trenton resident Larry Huffstutter and Trenton native Eric Alexander were both members of the special helicopter unit that provided support to patrol boats and SEAL teams during the six years of the conflict. I am glad that veterans of the Vietnam era are finally getting recognition for the sacrifices they made during those years. It was such an unpopular Wendell Lenhart and politically manipulated war; many servicemen and women were shunned and despised with misguided hatred when they returned home. The story also made me realize how fortunate I was to be growing up at the end of that era and not being called to serve in Southeast Asia. As an 18-year-old and recent high school graduate in 1972, the war was fortunately winding down. My draft number was 13 that year and I had a college roommate whose number was three. He was called for a physical that fall but was never drafted. I really appreciate those who were called and served in the military in our country’s history. They went and did a job that most of us would have been unwilling or unable to do. Don’t forget about the public showing of “Scramble The Seawolves” next Monday at the Hoover Theatre of the Grundy County-Jewett Norris Library. Doors open at 5 p.m. and the movie starts at 5:30. I think it will give area residents a really good idea about what went on over there during the war. ##### It’s fair time in Trenton as the North Central Missouri Fair starts its week-long run with activities this weekend at the fairgrounds near the Rock Barn. There’s rodeos and a tractor pull this weekend and then the fair parade on Tuesday kicks off the rest of the week’s activities. Several pages of this week’s Green Hills Weekly highlight all the activities and attractions at the fair. ##### We had our fair rain last week during the Mid-America Music Festival at Black Silo Winery, but maybe we can get another timely rain in the next few weeks. Other than the last act getting rained out, all the accounts I heard were that the festival was another successful venture and that it continues to get bigger and better each year. It sure brings a lot of people to town and helps promote our community.

Tourism Vs. Education
When we hear people speculating about reviving duck boats as a tourist attraction for Branson and Table Rock Lake, well — get the hockey sticks. It was one year ago today that a duck boat sank in Table Rock Lake, killing 17 people. Advocates say: "This was a freak accident." ''They still operate elsewhere." ''These boats can be made safer." We say: This was no freak accident but one waiting to happen, given the inherent problems with using these boats for tourism, a purpose for which they were not designed. Not to mention the industry's own failures to address known issues going back decades. And yes, they operate elsewhere. All we can say to that is "Good Luck! You've been warned!" They also can be made safer, no doubt, but can they be made safe enough? Unlikely. In fact, they could have been made safer decades ago, but they weren't. In other words, the industry had its chance, but ignored the problem. How many more chances do we give it? None. Two decades earlier, after the sinking of a duck boat in Arkansas and 13 deaths, the National Transportation Safety Board made recommendations that, had they been implemented, may well have averted the disaster at Table Rock. The NTSB warned, for example, of the danger of canopies on these boats. Those canopies function "like a net," the agency said, when passengers need to escape a sinking boat. Not only are life jackets useless in that instance, but they make matters worse, as victims get trapped against the canopy as the boat sinks. Yet no changes were made, and that contributed to the high fatality count on Table Rock Lake. We also learned that duck boats, built to operate on roads as well as water, have a metal frame, rather than wood or fiberglass, and a heavy chassis and transmission, according to the NTSB report. That causes them to sink quickly. No steps were taken to offset the weight and add buoyancy, although — again — this was a known danger. Bottom line: We don't trust the boats and we don't trust the industry. One more question: Would you get on one of the

For all state officials' talk of supporting "local control," it sometimes seems like they prefer to keep control in their own hands. That's even more noticeable when their decisions are to the detriment of Missouri. Our example du jour is Gov. Mike Parson's signing of a bill that restricts schools from starting earlier than 14 days before the first Monday in September. Why, you ask, is it in the best interest of our state to not start educating our students any sooner? Tourism. That's right. Families aren't vacationing well into August, so the tourism income slows down sooner than the tourism industry would prefer. So by banning schools from starting early in August, we can boost the state's tourism industry during the month. Or so the theory goes. We question how well that will work, since most people have a limited budget for discretionary spending, including vacations/day trips, etc. If people take their vacation in August rather than in July, there's no net gain. Granted, children could still provide cheap labor at burger joints and log flumes a little later into the summer. This isn't the first time tourism interests have gotten lawmakers to change the school-starting schedule. Eventually, lawmakers changed the law to allow local school boards more flexibility in setting their calendars. Like all states, tourism is important to Missouri, and the Show-Me State has much to offer between the Lake of the Ozarks, theme parks, sports teams, the state Capitol, Branson, etc. But why should we prioritize tourism at the possible expense of education? You can argue the effect on education is minimal. After all, students still will have the same number of days in schools. But different schools have different needs, and we suspect many of them have reasons for starting when they do. Plus, the more schools extend their year into late May or June, the harder it will be for teachers to keep students' attention. At any rate, it's disconcerting to see public education used in any way to prop up tourism. — Jefferson City News-Tribune

Pastor Aaron Stark gave the sermon, “Where Two or More Are Gathered, He is There.� Scripture was from Matthew 18:20 and 1 Corinthians 11:17-34. Am I the only one who looks back every week and says, "well I didn't see that coming?" It is hay season and we expect hot weather during that time but last week was impressively hot. Then, on Saturday evening, a cold front came through with rain, wind and lightning. I admit that a couple of lightning strikes had me squealing like a little girl but it was a great rain. We got just under three inches and the grass and garden loved it.

NASS To Conduct Production Survey The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service will survey producers in 32 states, including Missouri, for its County Agricultural Production Survey. The survey will collect information on total acres planted and harvested, and total yield and production of small grains crops down to the county level. CAPS will provide the data needed to estimate acreage and production of selected crops in the United States. “The data provided by producers will help federal and state programs support the farmer,� said Bob Garino, Missouri State Statistician. “I hope every single producer understands the importance of these data and will take the time to respond if they receive this survey. Producers lose out when there is no data to determine accurate rates for loans, disaster payments, crop insurance price elections and more.

When enough producers do not respond to surveys, NASS is not able to publish data. Without data, agencies such as USDA’s Risk Management Agency or Farm Service Agency do not have information on which to base the programs that serve those same producers.� Within the next few weeks NASS representatives will contact selected Missouri growers to arrange interviews for conducting the survey. NASS safeguards the privacy of all respondents and publishes only aggregate data, ensuring that no individual operation or producer can be identified, as required by federal law. Survey results will be published in the NASS Quick Stats online database (https://quickstats.nass.usda.g ov/) on Dec. 12. In addition, the Heartland Regional Field Office will publish the county statistics at https://www.nass.usda.gov/Sta tistics_by_State/Missouri/Publications/County_Estimates/i ndex.php.

NW Missouri Horticulture by Tim Baker Northwest Region Horticulture Specialist HOPS FIELD DAY One of the fascinating aspects of horticulture is the amazing number of plants we get to deal with, many of which are grown as crops for income. Many growers keep an eye out for new crops, which may offer revenue potential for their operations. While hops are not a new crop at all, the idea of growing
them commercially in Missouri is new for our generation. Historically hops were grown commercially many years ago in Missouri. Most of the commercial production areas for growing hops are now located in other parts of the country, especially in the Pacific Northwest. A few years ago, several MU extension horticulturists received
Late Hay Season Lowers Quality Farmers face bad hay days as they mow and rake hay that should’ve been baled in May, not now in the first days of summer. “Worst hay ever.� That conclusion came from talk by University of Missouri Extension agronomists on their weekly teleconference. First-cutting hay normally would have been baled and stored weeks ago. Farmers aim to harvest first-cutting grass before seed heads emerge from boot stage. When stems are cut
at an early stage, there will be no stems at second cutting. Hay cut now contains mature seeds and few leaves. Feed quality drops. “Stems and lack of leaves cuts nutrition,� says Craig Roberts, MU Extension forage specialist. Recent hay tests showed only 8% to 9% crude protein and 50% TDN (total digestible nutrients). “That may support a dry cow, but not a producing cow or calves,� Roberts said. There’s more bad news.

Many seed heads in this wet year are infected with ergots that add toxin to the hay. Bad hay has other causes, Roberts says. This spring seldom saw three dry days of sunshine in a row. That’s how long it takes to cut, dry and bale hay. “A lot of hay was baled wet,â€? Roberts said. To save forage, damp hay wrapped in plastic turns into silage. But ensiling worsens the ergot problem. Toxins are preserved. Now hay production depends on fall regrowth of coolseason grasses.

COW FEED IS FALL FORAGE GROWN AS CORN, SOYBEAN COVER CROPS We have 4,250,000 mouths to feed in Missouri this winter. More or less, that’s all the cattle in the USDA Ag Census. Missouri was the No. 2 cattle state in the nation. Now, we rank third if estimators have it right. We’ve dropped numbers in dairy, maybe not in beef. Beef prices gain as quality improves. MU research helps boost beef profits by making more calves grade Prime. If farmers adopt latest genomic research, we’d make No. 1 in profits. I’ve written MU Extension News long enough to see major shifts in Missouri herds. It’s major. I also see adoption from MU Thompson Farm, Spickard. In 20 years, there’ve been advances in breeding that changed beef nationally. The Show-Me-Select program brings success. There remain some attitudes of “I learned cows from grandpa and he was good.” But, Grandpa didn’t know science, as it wasn’t there when he had cows. Now, my concern isn’t about breeding, but feeding. I listen to MU teleconferences with state and regional specialists. In this wet year, they’ve seen losses in hay baled too damp. Also, wet weather brings toxic-
ergot seed heads. Those are in hay. In other words, there’s less good hay and more bad hay. We came into the year short of hay. Drought years before this wet year depleted our forages. No one knows our forage supply now. The weather was spotty across Missouri with nearby counties having different yields. I heard on teleconferences weekly: “Worst hay ever.” If there is hay it may be low in nutrition. Rain leached protein and energy from mowed hay before baling. Also, it may be more toxic from fungal infections. Not good. With prevented planting there may be less grain to feed cattle. Add that loss to a shortage of hay to cause concerns. Lower grain production means higher feed costs. I hope beef herd owners are looking forward to stock up on grain and forage before prices zoom up. There’s amazing news. In an unusual twist in flexibility the USDA changed the rules on using prevented-planting crop acres. First off, they allow corn and soybean crops as potential cover crops. Those covers are needed for erosion control on unplanted ground caused by excess rains and floods last spring.

HOW TO APPLY FOR FEMA DISASTER ASSISTANCE In this week’s column, I want to share a helpful resource for anyone who was affected by the recent flooding emergency and included in the disaster declaration. Several weeks ago, the president made federal assistance available to Missourians whose property was damaged by the flooding, as well as to those who were affected by tornadoes and other severe storms. This disaster assistance is administered through the Federal Emergency Management Agency, also known as FEMA. I am disappointed by the federal government’s decision not to include those affected by the March flooding events. I encour-
age anyone who think they might be eligible to explore the available resources. If you think you may be eligible, you can register for an official inspection. The registration process is quick and can be done online or over the phone by following the steps below: 1. First, contact your insurance agent to determine if your current homeowners, renters or flood insurance policy will cover all or part of your recovery expenses. 2. Create a record of your damage with photos, videos and a list of all impacted items. 3. Register with FEMA by visiting disasterassistance.gov or
credits. He is a junior in the university’s College of Liberal Arts and the son of Tim and Davina Jones-Gilham of Maryville. Corn and bean cover crops can’t be used for grain. But, they can be used for forage. That means corn and bean plants provide grazing or harvesting of chopped forage or baled hay. They make amazing forage to sustain cattle. I hope crop farmers with covercrop forage supply beef farmers. Can they get together? It takes action right now. MU Extension has geared up to help work through several new options. Helpers include both livestock and crop specialists. Most important, local USDA rule enforcers and local crop insurance agents must be asked, first. That’s before any start on plans. Done right, crop farmers profit from forage and still receive prevented-planting dollars. The double deal will be vital for both crop and livestock farmers. Find out what applies locally. Local rules prevail. Any practices used must be approved by an agriculturist. That can be an Extension agent or a Certified Crop Advisor, CCA at local companies. Then plans must go before the local USDA office. The word I got often from state specialists was to “Check first, locally.” Mother Nature may change best of plans. Fall rains and early frost change forage growth. That may overrule bureaucrats. Crop farmers will grow needed grain and forage. Cow owners must reach them to get needed feed. It takes cooperation as never before. Send what you see happening to duanedailey7@gmail.com.
by calling the agency’s toll-free registration line at 800-621FEMA (3362). You will need to provide your address, contact information, social security number and current insurance and income information. 4. FEMA will contact you to schedule a free in-person inspection. The inspector will visit your property on the appointed date to assess the damage, a process that normally takes 30 to 40 minutes. All FEMA inspectors carry official photo ID badges, which you may ask to see before starting the inspection. 5. Around seven to 10 days after the inspection, you will receive a determination letter listing the dollar amount and stipulations of any grant funding you may receive. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns.

expenditure at this time, even if it meant losing the $118,000 credit. He noted that the city would still have over $400,000 in credits remaining that could be used in the future. Those credits, if used, would still require the city to provide a 10 percent match. Councilwoman Cathie Smith encouraged the council to move forward, noting that the city “would lose $118,000 without anything.” Councilman David Mlika stated he would like to see the city proceed, noting that the current hangars are in need of replacement. Urton said the airport advisory committee has suggested looking at an eight-bay steel facility with concrete floors. The current hangar floors are either concrete or gravel and generate income for the city of $125 per month for the concreted hangars and $100 for the gravel units. It was noted that a new facility would allow the city to look at increasing the rental rates. In a related matter, the council approved a bid from David Tolen of Gallatin to rent the north end of the former PSF hangar at a cost of $285 per month. It was the best bid of two received. The vote was 6-1 with Brewer voting no. Brewer said after the meeting he felt the council should have approved the bid from Steve Hammond of Trenton because he is a local resident. Hammond’s bid was $276 per month. In approving the bid, the council asked the contract include that the rent is to be paid by the 10th of each month or that a 10 percent penalty would be added. There was considerable dis-

Steve Ishmael; 112 Kavanaugh, owned by Mike Arnold; 2002 Chicago St., owned by Samuel Southers; and 302 E. Seventh St., owned by Gary and Susan Jacobs. Given a 30-day extension to Aug. 26 was property at 1618 Mable St., owned by Joseph Buckner. Action on property at 309 E. Crowder Road, owned by Trent Hansuld, was tabled until Aug. 26 Action was tabled on property at 1302 E. Eighth St., owned by Michael and Rebecca Berry; and 1000 Rural
St., owned by David Greiner. Property at 607 W. Crowder Road, owned by John Danks, was moved to certificate of existence of a dangerous building. Removed from the certificate of existence of dangerous building list was property at 402 E. 17th St., owned by Penny Bell. Police Chief Rex Ross reported that 185 nuisance incidents have been investigated, with 72 remaining active, 66 cleared and 47 prosecuted. There are 37 cases currently in the court system.
cussion about what to do with the former R-9 building at the airport, which is owned by the city and prone to flooding. The building was last occupied by a dog treat baker. It had been suggested the city use the facility to store city-owned equipment, particularly items belonging to the street department. That would require larger overhead doors to be installed (two were suggested), which city officials estimated would cost $5,500 per door. Urton said that any water that might come into the building would not hurt the equipment to be stored and that in case of flash flooding, city crews could get the equipment out fairly quickly. Briggs indicated a concern with the city having anything stored in the building because of the flooding and there was also a concern raised with where the money would come from to pay for the doors. It was decided to table any action until staff could do more study on storage needs for all city departments and what options might be available. Meanwhile, baking equipment left in the building by the dog treat business is to be disposed of by the city, with any money received being credited toward the unpaid rent the business owes the city. In other business, the council: • approved an ordinance entering into an agreement with the Union Pacific Railroad for replacement of the 17th Street Bridge. Approval of the ordinance will allow for the project to be bid out. Demolition of buildings in the area of the bridge was under way. • approved a bid of $19,850 from Power Plant Compliance to do air testing on 12 substation diesel engines. It was the
lowest of three bids received. Urton noted that the needed catalytic converter replacements are on order and will be installed in time for the testing. Total cost for the parts and testing is to be no more than $60,000 as approved by the council at its July 12 meeting. • was told that once the 20day published notice for John Lea to abate a nuisance at the former Lakeview expires, the city will be able to proceed with taking care of the issue, which involves water standing in the former pool. • was told that the use of city street equipment for private projects does not interfere with city street work getting done. The city allows street department equipment to be rented with city crews operating the equipment. The city personnel use paid-time off to do the work, with the entity having the work done paying the salary of the worker as well as for rental of the equipment. It was noted that equipment and city crews were used in a recent project at Hy-Vee which, in addition to paying for the equipment and personnel, also purchased 791 tons of asphalt from the street department. • was told that once the water/sewer line replacement work being done on Normal Street is completed the street department will be doing a two-inch overlay on the road. It was noted that the street department has patched roads in areas where water/sewer line work has been done during the summer. • improvement work continues at the sewer plant with plans to have the new disinfection system up and running by Aug. 9. Once that is complete, work can begin on the headworks project.

Dear Annie: I am a divorced male in my early 50s. I'm in good health, successful and single. I'm single by choice, due to the availability of single women my age without issues (for lack of a better word). I do not take any medications, other than vitamins every morning. I weigh 195 pounds, which is healthy for my height. While I do not consider myself a "Shallow Hal," there is no attraction for me to overweight women. Your body is the vessel that takes you through this life. If you have no respect for that, then how can you properly manage everything else in life? Women my age also tend to get too clingy too quickly. My children are now grown (and successful in their own right) and I find myself with more time on my hands. As I type this on a Saturday night, alone in my living room, I'm curious to hear your advice. I will go a little further to include financials: I own a house with a small mortgage, a rental property and some property in Florida. I have money in the bank and investments. Why couldn't I want someone who, at the very least, is financially secure? Lastly, I will digress to my earlier statement of no medications, I will admit to indulging on occasion to good wine, craft beer and even quality spirits, although not to excess. The use of over-the-counter medication is also on my watch list. I wouldn't want to criticize where it is necessary but I also feel there is an overuse of said medication. Have a glass of wine or even some marijuana, now that is more accepted and natural. I feel there is no need to introduce chemicals in pill form into your body. So, Annie, my question to you: Am I asking for too

much? I will admit to some faults but still feel I am stable enough. As I re-read this and edit as I feel necessary, I have doubts that you would even consider publishing this inquiry due to its nature. I would look forward to any response. -- Bachelor Dear Bachelor: My question to you: Why so defensive? I doubt anyone has told you that you couldn't "want someone who, at the very least, is financially secure." That's a reasonable expectation. Lamenting your lack of dating options while at the same time disqualifying millions of women from your dating pool, however, is not so reasonable. That's exactly what you're doing by prejudging women your age (or older) as too "clingy" with too many "issues." And you disqualify millions more by refusing to date women who are overweight (an attribute you unfairly equate with some sort of moral failing). Look, no one is telling you whom you can or can't date. I'm certainly not saying you can't be selective in choosing a partner. But you asked for my advice, so here it is: First, consider every woman as an individual, and second, be picky about the things that count -which are seldom skin-deep. Dear Annie: I read the letter from Larry who was having problems with an irate neighbor over parking issues. I, too, have neighbors who are generally wonderful people. It was the friends who visited them that caused problems. They would block half of my driveway. After my having to repeatedly report this and call officers to have vehicles moved, the neighbors put up a brick border wall marking their property boundary. We haven't had any issues since. Is it just arrogance or ignorance
that causes people to do this? - Marilyn Dear Marilyn: I can't diagnose the cause of such behavior, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's a severe case of chronic self-absorption. Dear Annie: I have a friend who has experienced a difficult life, including abuse, cancer and loss. I no longer spend time with her because every visit involved a painful recounting of every awful incident she has endured. I have tried to redirect the conversation to other topics and told her I missed talking to her about books, politics, family, friends, travel and food. I suggested that our first 10 minutes be spent on her troubles and that we then move on to other topics, but it always goes back to her traumas. She is angry that I no longer want to get together, but I feel like I have become a dumping ground rather than a friend. Any advice? -- Not Willing To Be a Dumping Ground Dear Not Willing To Be a Dumping Ground: You took the right steps by having an open and honest conversation with your friend. It sounds like she is suffering from severe depression. You are not a trained therapist and should not have to bear the responsibility of being one for her. Perhaps you could suggest that she seek the help of a professional who deals with posttraumatic stress disorder. She might not be aware that she is unable to talk about anything else. If you can help her to seek professional help, be patient with her as she works through her past. The fact that she has suffered abuse, cancer and loss means she has been dealt a rotten hand. Sometimes, when a person has experienced multiple traumas, the pain and memory of his or her experiences remain present, even if that person might not physically be living with the traumas.

Bright Futures Trenton Community Back to School Event Tuesday, August 6 Locations: Trenton High School, First Christian Church, First Baptist Church Activity Center, Trenton Cinema, Moberly Park and Trenton Aquatic Center Purpose: This is a needs-based event to help students and families in meeting basic needs as they prepare to go back to school. Bright Futures Trenton is partnering with Grundy County Health Department, local churches, Hy-Vee, and many other businesses, community organizations and agencies to coordinate donations and services to help school families in meeting basic needs. Community engagement: Many area churches, community organizations, businesses, and individuals are sharing their time, treasure, and talent to meet the needs of our school families. We are striving to help the community be smarter with the resources we already have. What people need to know: Needs based event. We ask parents/guardians to attend all events with their student. For the protection of all participants, a head check will be conducted before a student can receive a haircut. The student must be present to receive a new pair of school shoes at the First Baptist Church Activity Center. To receive a pass for the pool party that evening, students must complete the health screenings with GCHD at the First Christian Church. Like and follow Bright Futures Trenton on Facebook Questions Contact Bright Futures Coordinators Terri Critten (tcritten@trentonr9.k12.mo.us) or Lynn Griffin (legriffin1987@gmail.com) Events Trenton High School 9:00-6:00 Trenton R-9 Online Registration Parents who do not have internet access may come to THS and use the district’s technology to complete online enrollment. This is the first time the registration process is available online. Parents and Guardians will be able to conveniently complete necessary forms through the SIS Parent Portal in a short time at one location, rather than having to go through the process at
each school building where they have children attending. This process is for current students only. New students to the district will be required to enroll in person at the building where the student will attend. Altice Advantage Program Altice USA is the parent company for Suddenlink Communications. They have a program to offer special internet pricing for families that qualify for the free/reduced lunch rate. They will be available to share information with families at THS. They are also providing a new pocket folder to every student in the Trenton R9 District. Pass the Pride Bright Futures Trenton has been collecting gently used Trenton Bulldog apparel from the community since early spring for this event. Trenton citizens have been very responsive in donating clothing to be shared with families in need. Our goal is to make the clothing available to students who may not otherwise be able to afford a Trenton Bulldog t-shirt or sweatshirt. On Aug. 6 those students may choose an article of clothing for their use. School Supplies Our community has really stepped up to help with providing backpacks and school supplies for students who might not otherwise be able to purchase the necessary supplies for their school year. Churches throughout the community have collected the suggested supplies from their congregations all summer. Businesses have joined in, as well as, individuals, in making donations to get supplies in the hands of students who need them. Lynn Griffin, Abby Oberman and Elizabeth Gibson have worked hard to coordinate this part of our event. Trenton R-9 students who need this assistance will want to come to THS to get a backpack and a portion of the supplies. They will then want to participate in the health screenings at the First Christian Church being provided by Grundy County Health Department to receive the rest of the basic supplies they will need. Students from other schools in Grundy County will receive basic supplies when they participate in the GCHD health screenings, as well. The GCHD School Health Fair is for all students in Grundy County.
Gym Shoe Dash Last May, on the morning of the last day of school, Cub Scout Pack 23 held a gym shoe dash. They collected gently worn gym shoes from students who wanted to donate them for someone else to use. The ladies at Wesley United Methodist washed the shoes this summer. The scouts will be at THS to share these shoes with elementary students who may need them for gym class this school year. First Baptist Church Activity Center 4:00-7:00 Clothing Room The First Baptist Church is sponsoring a clothing room for families in need at this event. They will have like new clothing to choose from, in all sizes, available at no cost. They are collecting additional clothing donations for this event through Aug. 2. Clean, like new clothing can be dropped off at the church office during business hours. Donated clothing should be in clean and like new condition. Sizes preschool through adult are needed. Shoe Ministry Hodge Presbyterian’s New Soles for Bright Futures ministry will be held at this location, as well. Church members held a very successful Drive-thru Tenderloin fundraiser earlier this month to generate funds to purchase shoes for this needs-based ministry. They have also collected shoe donations from their congregation and from the Trenton community for this event. Students who need a new pair of tennis shoes to start the school year will find that help here. The student must be present to receive the shoes. Basic Haircuts Six hairstylists are volunteering their time to provide basic back to school haircuts at no charge at this location. For the health and protection of all students, a private head check will be conducted before a student receives a haircut. First Christian Church 4:00-7:00 Grundy County Health Department School Health Fair They will be completing health screenings for school in order to reduce the child’s time out of

the classroom this fall. All Grundy county students in grades K-12 are welcome. Students who complete their screenings will receive essential school supplies to start the school year and a coupon for a free pool party later in the evening. There will be games and prizes for the students while they wait for their screenings as well as educational displays and community partners. GCHD will provide a pass to their pool party to all students who participate in the screening. Suds for Students The congregation at First Assembly of God Church has collected soap, shampoo and toothbrushes for students in need. They are being joined by Wesley United Methodist Church, who is contributing other hygiene items. Look for their booth at First Christian Church. Trenton Cinema 2:00-6:00 Jim and Maggie at the Trenton Cinema want to invite students and families to come by for some free popcorn and pop as they are out and about participating in events on Aug. 6.We thank them for generously offering this refreshment during our community event. Moberly Park 6:00-8:00 Hy-Vee Food Store of Trenton is providing a cookout at Moberly Park for families participating in the days’ events. Hot dogs, chips and bottled water will be provided by Hy-Vee. Members of First Christian Church are providing homemade cookies for the cookout. Come by for a quick bite after you finish your health screenings and the events at First Baptist Church. Trenton Aquatic Center 7:00-9:00 The Grundy County Health Department is sponsoring a pool party for students who participate in the health screenings. The pool will only admit students and their families if they have the coupon from GCHD provided after the health screening has been completed.

PUBLIC NOTICES “because the people must know”
(Editor’s Note: Public Notice advertising plays a unique role both in American history and in the process by which this country’s democracy is preserved. Its one premise is that people must be informed if they are to govern themselves competently. Public Notice advertising first came into being with the Congress of 1792. That body, recognizing its responsibility to the people, required the Postmaster General to advertise for bids for the construction of new post offices. From that inauspicious beginning to the complex publication requirements in federal, state and local laws today, government officials have come more and more to understand their obligations to inform the public through Public Notice advertising. Newspapers over the years have been the vehicle by which these obligations have been fulfilled. They will continue to be as long as the public demands that it be informed frequently and by the best means possible.)

Lawsuit Filed In May Accident A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed in Grundy County in connection with the death of a Spickard woman and the injury of her daughter when the horse and buggy they were riding in was struck by a vehicle in May. Joe Hostetler, the husband of Elizabeth Hostetler and the father of Maria Hostetler, filed the suit in the Third Judicial Circuit on Wednesday and is seeking unspecified damages from Trenton resident Christina Airey, who was driving a vehicle that struck the horse and buggy. The accident occurred on May 31 on East Ninth Street near Kitty Street. Hostetler’s suit alleges that Ms. Airey was negligent by driving too fast for conditions, exceeding the posted speed limit, failing to keep a careful lookout, failing to stop, swerve, honk or take evasive
action when she knew or should have known that failure to do so would result in a collision and failing to yield the right of way. Elizabeth Hostetler sustained fatal injuries in the accident and Maria, who was 10 years old at the time of the accident, suffered injuries to her head, brain, neck and back. In addition, the suit alleges that Maria has suffered emotional trauma as a result of being in the danger zone and being in the presence of her mother as she sustained the injuries that led to her death. Count II of the petition alleges a personal injury claim on behalf of Maria. Trenton Police Chief Rex Ross said the investigation into the accident was recently completed and all reports were forwarded to the Grundy County Prosecuting Attorney’s office on July 3.
