Guest speaker Justin David, left, talks with the Stover High School band Tuesday, Jan. 17 about his career as a touring musician, and gave advice about pursuing careers in music. Later, David spoke to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes about how he balanced success as a traveling entertainer with a faithful Christian lifestyle, marriage, and family life. A trumpeter in his high school band, David also plays fiddle, mandolin, guitar, and banjo. He participated in the National Endowment for the Arts Master Artist program in his teens, and performed more than 4,000 shows in Branson, until country music legend Roy Clark picked him for his road band.

School board renews Unger’s contract
The Morgan County R-I school board voted in executive session Wednesday, Jan. 18 to extend Superintendent Matt Unger’s contract by one year. Unger has been superintendent of Stover’s schools since July 2015. His contract was extended to a total of three years, until 2020. Life skills kitchen In other business, the board approved a bid from Hodges Cabinets of Stover to renovate a former junior-high science classroom in the oldest part of the school campus. This will allow the room to serve more effectively as a kitchen for the special education department’s life skills and on-the-job training programs. Hodges’ bid for the project was $5,962.50, compared to $8,159.40 bid by Fajen Lumber and Hardware in Stover, $7,195 bid by Country Lane Custom Cabinets in Fortuna, and a bid from Walnut Creek Woodcraft of Barnett for $5,581 with fiberboard doors or $6,119 with solid wood doors. Aims of the renovation will be to replace outdated cabinetry with equipment more fully in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act; to remove asbestos floor tile; and to put drywall over windows on a former external wall, now blocked by adjacent offices. Other board business The school board confirmed the scheduling of Stover High School’s 2017 graduation, 3 p.m. Sunday, May 14. The board also approved a job description for a communications
specialist to manage the district’s public relations. Unger explained this will be a stipend position, possibly an extra-duty assignment for a current staff member. The position will provide the school more planned communication, allowing it to market its services and promote community involvement. The school board certified the list of candidates who filed paperwork to run for three available school board seats in the Tuesday, April 4 election. Up for election this year are the seats currently held by Steve Eckhoff, Joel Clark, and school board president Thomas Chandler, Jr. Five candidates filed for the three positions: Clark, Chandler, Cody Worthley, Sheryl Simon, and Stephanie Marriott. Superintendent report Reporting on the district’s budget and finances, Unger noted the district is “where we should be” financially, and said the bulk of the district’s property tax revenue was expected soon. During December, district receipts totaled $931,293 and expenditures totaled $579,514, leaving budget reserves of 49 percent and checking account balances totaling $1,779,466.33. Unger said he planned to attend a Missouri Educators Unified Health Plan meeting during the last full week of January to learn more about a new partnership pending between MEUHP and the Cigna health insurance company. Unger said there was early buzz indicating CIGNA cover-

age would allow the district to buy the same plan for all its staff. This would resolve problems with its current carrier, Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, which offers different plans for staff members residing in Benton and Pettis counties. In his legislative report, Unger said he was pleasantly surprised by the pro-education tone of new Missouri governor Eric Greitens’ State of the State address. In spite of concerns about revenue shortfalls in this year’s state budget, Unger said, “schools were spared and transporation was hurt a little.” Unger also advised the board about several pending senate bills that could affect district construction projects by modifying prevailing wage laws. Unger touched briefly on the district’s facility plan, noting the committee was discussing summer maintenance priorities. For example, they discussed the possibility of upgrading the Family and Consumer Science classroom with aid from a Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education vocational improvement grant. Administrator reports High school principal Michael Marriott reported grades 7-12 had 285 students enrolled with 95.32percent attendance. Elementary principal Molly Roe reported 453 students were enrolled in preschool through grade 6, with 96.14-percent attendance. Roe noted middle-of-year testing was underway, and staff was
hopeful about the results. The school’s “Muffins with Mom” event is scheduled 6:45 to 8 a.m. Friday, Feb. 10 in the elementary gymnasium. Special services director Heather Oelrichs reported 116 students are enrolled in individualized education programs. Oelrichs noted preschool and kindergarten screenings are scheduled Wednesday, April 5 and Friday, April 7. Weekly drivers’ education classes started Tuesday, Jan. 10, with an instructor from Jefferson City preparing students for written driving tests only. ACT exams will be in April. Oelrichs also discussed the Parents As Teachers program’s partnership with the Morgan County Library, where participating families joined the library’s “1,000 Books Before Kindergarten” initiative. Five staff members completed training for Crisis Prevention Intervention, a program certifying them as qualified to de-escalate individuals in crisis and, if necessary, physically restrain them. Oelrichs touted the gifted students’ program, which was planning to participate in a Future City competition Saturday, Jan. 21 in Lawrence, Kansas. She noted 2015 Stover graduate Joe Chandler received a $500 scholarship as alumnus of the year from the Future City program. The next MCR-I school board meeting is scheduled 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 15 in the Stover school library.
The Stover Rural Fire Protection District board certified the slate of candidates for the upcoming election at a special meeting Tuesday, Jan. 17 at the district office in Stover. Municipal elections will be Tuesday, April 4. Those who filed for two positions on the fire board with six-year terms were incumbents William “Bill” Brunjes and Elsie Drury. Jim Taylor filed for a four-year unexpired term on the board. All three candidates currently serve on the fire board. Taylor and Brunjes were appointed to fill vacancies caused by the resignations of board members Ed Cline and Larry Sharon. Lease-purchase In other business, the board also approved a lease-purchase agreement with the Stover Rural
Fire Department, a fire auxiliary also known as the rural association, to cover the expenses of a new vehicle bay recently added to Fire Station 2 north of Stover. The agreement, effective Monday, Jan. 9, is to repay the rural association $27,114.27 during a three-year period, in three annual payments, each with one percent interest on the unpaid balance. The rural association will, in turn, repay two anonymous lenders who paid for the project. The first payment is due Monday, Jan. 8, 2018. Additional payments may be made without penalty. The agreement was signed by rural association president Dwight Palmer and fire board president Elsie Drury.

Editorial
NR.otes of Interest D. F by ish Last Thursday, I went to a local event to shoot a picture for this newspaper. When I raised the camera to shoot, nothing happened. Then I remembered I had left the battery plugged into the charger in my office in Versailles. Oops. Not to worry, I had a backup camera - my own personal Sanyo compact digital automatic. It has come in handy several times, such as when I needed to be in two places at once during the 2016 Stover Fair and I was able to get a couple of nice high school girls to cover the children’s games for me; or when I showed up for a 2015 Stover Elementary School awards assembly with a dead battery in my newspaper-issued Canon Rebel. The pictures are never quite as sharp, the colors are never as bright, but it’s better than having no pictures at all. Unfortunately, my Sanyo was dead too. Its battery had finally given up the ghost after not being charged for at least a year. I hadn’t seen its charging cable since I moved from St. Louis to our area in 2014. It had held up pretty well, considering it was last charged on a cord I borrowed from my dad before he moved out of town a year ago. While the Canon’s battery soaked up juice in my office,
I ran around town looking for a replacement for that missing Sanyo data sync cable. It proved hard to find. At last, the exact cable I needed turned up at Planet Computer in Versailles. It took a couple hours to test the cord to make sure it worked properly. The poor, dead Sanyo didn’t have enough juice at first even to respond to being plugged in, except for a second or two at a time. I left it at Planet Computer and went back later to check on it. It had charged nicely, so I bought the cord. I feel so much more secure in my readiness to meet any journalistic situation with not only one shooting instrument, but a backup as well. I’m sure you all sympathize, even though I’m only talking about first-amendment shooting rights. From now on, no one will be faster on the draw than yours truly. I’ll be locked and loaded, with a highcapacity memory card and a lithium-ion battery. The Sanyo was so starved for power, when I woke it up, it asked for the date and time. It couldn’t remember anything past March something, 2011. I fancied it was gazing up at me with a bemused expression and saying, “What year is it? Who’s president?” Funny it should ask. The next
day, the answer to that question was destined to change. Supposing I had a culturally aware Sanyo camera on my hands, I wonder what it would have said if I had told it, “Donald Trump.” Perhaps it would say something like Doc Brown’s scoffing reply to Marty McFly in the movie “Back to the Future,” when the visitor to 1955 told him Ronald Reagan was going to be president in 1985. “Ronald Reagan?” Doc cried. “The actor? Then who’s vice president? Jerry Lewis? I suppose Jane Wyman is the first lady! And Jack Benny is secretary of the treasury!” Well, stranger things can happen. Look at the slate of candidates for the local elections in April. We actually have competitive races for the Stover city council, the MCR-I school board, and the county health center. I think this is exciting. It makes voting more interesting than when there are, at most, the same number of candidates as positions available. I think it will be good for voter turnout. Now, that’s a picture I look forward to taking: packed polls!
My New Year’s resolution is...

lead back up to seven points and made their free throws down the stretch to secure the win. “We had some good shots, however, we didn’t finish in the lane well and shot just 50 percent at the free throw line,” Haag said. “Sacred Heart has some good athletes and they did a great job of out-rebounding us almost all game long.” The Gremlins were 16 for 20 from the foul line for the game. Jackson led the Lady Bulldogs with 14 points. Bellis had 10 points. Bauer scored eight points. Schroder finished with five points and Hinck added three points. Score by quarter Stover 11 10 10 9 40 Sacred Heart 12 12 8 14 46 The Lady Bulldogs bounced back from the loss at Sacred Heart with a come-from-behind 39-36 win Thursday, Jan. 19 at La Monte. “We couldn’t throw the ball in the ocean from the field for three and a half quarters,” Haag said. “We had open shot after open shot and just didn’t make anything.” But the Lady Bulldogs rallied and took the lead on a threepointer by Bauer with about two minutes left to play. Stover then made a defensive stop late and milked the clock to get the victory. “To our kids credit the final 3:38 we got going and hit the shots we needed to come back and win. These kids always battle and that paid off tonight,” Haag said. Stover shot 24 percent from the field and made 10 of 22 foul shots in the game. Jackson led the scoring with 12 points. Bauer added 10 points. Iman finished with nine points. Schroder scored six points and Bellis had two points.
Score by quarter 6 12 6 15 39 Stover La Monte 8 13 6 9 36 Stover capped the week with a 64-62 win against Northwest Saturday, Jan. 21 in the Homecoming contest at Stover. The Lady Mustangs held a 2825 lead at the half, but the Lady Bulldogs rallied to go in front, 46-43, heading into the fourth quarter. Jackson made a pair of free throws with 20 seconds left to give Stover a 63-59 lead. A threepointer by Northwest’s Megan Simpson cut the Lady Bulldogs lead to 63-62 with 10 seconds remaining. Jackson then made one of two foul shots with nine seconds to go for the two-point lead. Northwest then threw a pass out of bounds on the ensuing possession and Stover celebrated a Homecoming victory. “Northwest is a very good team with size and an exceptional shooter,” Haag said. “Ashley and Shelby were both very good offensively with Jenna getting back to being a slasher and Emily and Matty both hitting some big outside shots. When we have balance like that, we can score well. We just need to improve our defensive rotations and concentration.” Jackson and Schroder led the offense with 20 points each and Schroder also had nine assists and eight rebounds. Bellis scored 11 points. Hinck and Bauer finished with six points apiece and Iman scored one point and hauled in 15 rebounds. Simpson scored 31 points for the Lady Mustangs. Score by quarter Northwest 14 14 15 19 62 Stover 13 12 21 18 64 The Lady Bulldogs are 8-8 overall and 3-2 in the Kaysinger Conference.

Koko the Gorilla
determined to prove that he was more than an “ungainly pup.” His first test was an official hunting trial. All of the dogs trained at Ira Irvine’s kennels were given a trial. Their owners wanted to see if they’d be good enough to take into the field.
Another famous animal who appeared to understand human language was Koko, a female gorilla. Koko was born at the San Francisco Zoo, and she has been cared for her entire life by a researcher named Penny Patterson. Penny began teaching Koko sign language when she was just a baby and reportedly uses more than 1,000 signs and understands more than 2,000 English words. She once told Penny that she hoped to get a kitten for Christmas! Koko’s wish came true and she named her kitten “All Ball.”
“If he doesn’t show any promise,” Sam told Ira, “I’ll have to get rid of him.” That was a lot of pressure on my father. He was still waiting to find his forever home, and he really didn’t want Sam to send him away. The two men took Jim out into the field for his first test. Immediately, Jim smelled quail. Llewellin Setters, like me and my father, are bred to be natural hunters. We have a great sense of smell, and when we smell game we know how to pose in what’s called a “point” position. It’s really quite easy. Give it a try! Nose forward, tail out, and front paw lifted and curled under. That’s how we show our owners where birds and other game are hiding. When Jim smelled his first quail in the field he assumed a perfect point. When a bird flushed into flight, Sam shot it. “Dead bird!” he shouted.
Jim trotted over, retrieved the bird and brought it straight back to Sam. Jim didn’t chew the bird or damage it at all. Jim was perfect! “I didn’t think he’d do it!” Sam told Ira. For the rest of the afternoon the two men hunted quail, and my father was their flawless companion. He broke the birds out of their coveys and retrieved them when necessary. “Well, this is one dog I don’t think I’ll ever give away,” Sam told Ira at the end of the day. And just like that my father had earned the trust and loyalty of his new owner. Jim had found his home. Jim was a great hunting companion, but lots of dogs are, especially in my family. So what
set him apart from just any old everyday setter? Well, remember the day that Sam and Jim were hunting when Jim identified a number of different trees? Jim was more than just a great hunter. It seemed to Sam that when Jim hunted with him, he was not just following instinct or trained commands. No, it seemed that Jim understood in plain English what was being asked of him! After that day in the forest, Sam was convinced that my father could understand language. Even though Sam’s wife doubted the story and told him to keep it to himself, Sam wanted to show his friends what his new hunting dog could do! The day after Jim identified the trees, Sam took him to town. It was time for people to meet this Wonder Dog.
Koko sometimes shares memories through sign language and even complimented another gorilla who was learning with Penny by signing the message “Good Sign.” But can Koko really understand human language or is she just really well trained, since she sometimes is given special treats for completing her signs? People question if perhaps Koko is being influenced by the Clever Hans Effect. Maybe Penny is actually encouraging Koko to give certain signs through her body language. It’s hard to understand exactly what Koko does or does not know, but she’s definitely another interesting example of an animal communicating and appearing to understand human language.
Paper training Jim was skilled at communicating. Newspapers have many examples of communication that are intended to persuade, inform and entertain. Can you find an example of each?

Jackson builds local enterprise on hauling ‘gnarly stuff’
by R.D. Fish “I just see a need,” Dave Jackson said in a recent interview about J.S. Disposal, a trashhauling business he started in August 2016. When a customer requests a 10- or 20-yard-long trash bin, he said, “We provide delivery to your door. You load it, and we pick it up.” J.S. Disposal takes its name from Jackson Services, LLC, of which the disposal businesses is a DBA (“doing business as”), or trade name. Jackson began the enterprise at the urging of John Behnen at F&J Disposal in Laurie, a close friend of his brother Curtis Jackson. “John said there’s a big need for a reliable dumpster service in the area to compete with WCA and Ozark Disposal.” To start, he put five 10-yard roll-off trash bins and two 20yard ones into service. Most of them are painted a uniform shade of “John Deere yellow,” except a black one that he plans to trim with yellow lettering. “That’s my color,” he said. “I just want everybody to see the
Dave Jackson
dumpsters.” One reason, he said, was brand recognition. “I want people to recognize my company. Eventually, they’ll say, ‘I know! That’s J.S. Disposal!’” Another reason for the bright color is safety. “If people see them, they don’t back into them,” he explained. He said he hopes to double, or possibly triple, the number of roll-off bins in his fleet. Already in mid-January, every one of his containers is being used by a customer, and each bin could be out a week to 12 days. “That’s awesome,” he said. “I fairly believe this year could be a great year for everybody, because if I’m this busy in January, that means the economy is coming up. People are doing things with their houses, remodeling. If they need my services, they’re doing good!” Trash service “I’m getting ready to purchase a new trash truck,” Jackson said. “I plan to do collections from homes and businesses.” He made an early start in November, offering a few two-yard dumpsters to a few customers who want something bigger than the standard curbside trash can. At the time of the interview, Jackson’s small-dumpster operation served between six and 10 business clients and approximately 10 homes, scattered between the Hiawatha Beach and Buffalo Cove areas off Routes T and WW, south of Stover. “I hope to increase this this year by 100-fold,” he said, noting he expects the growth to take off in the spring when lake traffic picks up. Possible headquarters Another step Jackson is considering is to buy a storefront off Highway 52 in Stover and make it his main office, where customers can come to pay their bill, once the business grows enough to employ office staff. He is also thinking about
turning part of the property into a dumpster storage yard, but he has no intention of letting this become a public nuisance. “I’m not going to let it attract flies,” he said. “I have the same problem with having a turkey barn beside me. I’m not going to cause that kind of problem.” Jackson said the storage yard would be fenced in, and may include a wash-out bay. “I hope, most of the time, the dumpsters will be out on the job,” he said, with short-term exceptions when he needs to drop off one container to pick up another and take it to a job site. Ordinarily, he said, “The dumpsters will be empty. There will be no trash disposal there.” Jackson said he usually dumps his bins, after a customer is done with them, at F&J Disposal, or sometimes at the WCA landfill in Sedalia, depending on the location of a job. “You’d be surprised how clean these dumpsters keep,” he said. “I’ve hauled some pretty gnarly stuff, and they actually stayed pretty clean. They dump really steep, at a 52-degree angle, and they clean out really good.” Stover by choice A native of Haverhill, Mass., Jackson, 52, has lived in the Stover area since he was 15, when his parents decided to move to Missouri. “My father was a truck driver who drove all over the country,” he said, “and he decided he liked Missouri best.” After initially looking for a farm in the Buffalo area, the family settled near Florence. When he got married, Jackson moved to Stover, where he owned several houses and rented some of them for a while. He now lives west of Stover, off Route FF on Mulberry Lane. His daughter, the youngest of 10 children ages 15 to 36, attends school in Cole Camp. Jenna and Shelby Nash, the oldest two of his soon-to-be-eight grandchildren, go to Morgan County R-I
School in Stover. Jackson has experience in a variety of businesses. His career in construction included building the old Citizens-Farmers Bank branch in Stover, which was torn down last year to make way for the current bank building. He also worked several years as a custodian and bus driver at MCR-I, and spent approximately 15 years selling and erecting steel-structure buildings. Later, he specialized in erecting industrial steel buildings, such as shelters for gas line compressor stations. He is currently working as superintendent of such a project in the Charleston, W.V. area - quite a trick, while running his own trash removal service. “My company will still be running,” he said, noting his position as superintendent gives him many opportunities to fly back and forth. Meantime, his son Anthony Blacksten, 20, will be in charge of J.S. Disposal. He is also counting on help from local friends, such as Rick Everhart, and some of Jackson’s other sons, who are home for the winter from their pipeline jobs. “They will help out till they go back,” he added. Apart from his mother, who still lives in the area, Jackson said most of his relatives still live in Massachusetts and Maine. Nevertheless, as a transplant who took root in the area in 1979, he considers himself a permanent part of the community. “I’m a local company trying to provide a service to local people,” he said. As he competes with bigger companies, Jackson said, “I can provide a more friendly attitude, the actual handshake of the owner, the phone call directly to me instead of through the receptionist.” Everhart, another Stover outsider who succeeded in local

business, said of Jackson, “Dave is one of the most honest and hard working men I know. He will go out of his way to be sure the job is done right and the customer is satisfied.” Everhart qualified his praise by adding, “He has also been my best friend for about 20 years, so I know him pretty well.” Five-year plan While admitting he would like to see the business grow to where he can employ a receptionist, Jackson maintained, “I’m a small company, hoping to get larger. I try to provide 24hour service” - meaning, bringing customers a trash bin within 24 hours of receiving their request - “often the same day, as fast as can be.”
Jackson said he has a “fiveyear plan” for building his business, counting 2017 as his first full year in operation. He recently started advertising on billboards. Before that, he said, his client base grew mostly by referrals and word of mouth. “I started late in the summer,” he said, “and it wasn’t a real good test. It showed me there is a lot of business around here, though.” He added, “With the competition, most of the time, I can get there faster and at a more reasonable rate.” For more information about J.S. Disposal, call 573-746-0319 or email jsd@stovermo.com.
Library Bookworm
by Stacey Embry, Director, Morgan County Library Sharing is hard. I am an only child. I honestly don’t even understand what “sharing” really means. When I was growing up, my closest cousin was four years younger. So, by the time she showed up, I had avoided all the unnecessary “sharing” stages. As an adult, I still am not great at sharing, I will buy you your own, just don’t touch mine. That’s sharing, isn’t it? Sharing is defined as distributing, or letting someone else use, your portion of something. Let’s face it, sharing is taking turns. Taking turns sounds easier than sharing. Sharing has a warm fuzzy feel to it, but you tell a child to share a toy with their sibling and warm and fuzzy is not what you will generally see. Telling them “it is not your turn” is much easier. It implies your turn is coming. When we purchase items for our collection, we rarely buy multiple copies. I cannot buy one for everyone who wants one; I only do that for the people I live with. Patrons have to share items from our collection. If you think about it, we are probably the biggest sharers in Morgan County and you are part Marvin Kreider, left, of Syracuse chats with vendor DeVan Shafer, right, of Smithton of that!
We are lucky we are blessed with such a large collection. If an item that a patron wants is out, they can put a reserve or a hold on it. The largest reserve/hold list I have seen since I have worked here is seven; seven total patrons wanting the same item. The longest any patron can checkout a reserved item is two to four weeks depending on if they are long-term checkout or not. So, the first patron in the line of seven checks out the item. The maximum wait time for the number-seven patron would be 3 to 6 months. Items usually come in more quickly than that; our patrons are pretty good at sharing. They are aware the item they have is “hot” and they often return it before the due date. OverDrive has introduced our patrons to new level of sharing. We are part of a consortium of libraries that share digital media. Now, when a patron wants an item, they are not only sharing with our library they are sharing with a collection of libraries. The largest reserve/hold list that I have been personally involved with was 20. With OverDrive, there are also two checkout times, 14 days or 21 days. So the maximum time I had to wait for that item was 57
weeks. Yep, this is way different. Items can be returned before the due date, but most just let the item expire from their device. When using OverDrive, instead of sharing with a sibling we are sharing with every kid in the county. I have been using eBooks for a few years now; I am used to waiting for titles. For patrons new to digital media, it is a large adjustment. I recommend having an open mind. Explore new authors and new genres. If you get frustrated seeing everything has a waitlist, then modify your search. Use the advanced search and limit the returns to items that are currently available and create a wish list for the items that have a bunch of holds. We still have a choice. If we want an item and cannot wait, we can purchase it or we can wait our turn. Sometimes, I wait for my turn. Sometimes, I purchase. Sharing is hard and sometimes taking turns is not much better. For more information, visit the Morgan County Library, 600 N. Hunter, in Versailles; call 573378-5319; or see the library’s website at morgancountylibrary.org. Library hours are 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturday.
Improvements in services continue to be made at the Morgan County Library in Versailles. Director Stacey Embry updated the library board about the progress at their meeting Thursday, Jan. 12 at the library in Versailles. The library is now open Mondays. Embry reported the first Monday opening had 100 checkouts. She said people came in and were “pleased to have the library available.” She anticipates Monday use of the facility will increase over time. The addition of puzzles and coloring pages available for adults and children has “added new dynamics to the library,” Embry said. “People of all ages are enjoying time with them.” Embry is meeting with representatives from area nursing homes to discuss how the library can cooperate with and provide services for the residents. Embry reported the 1,000 Books program began Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2017 and five people signed up. She said evening story time went well. She anticipates participation will increase as more people talk about it. A drawing for a cardboard house, built by students for the children’s library, was won by Lily Hendrix. A castle was built
from cardboard after the house had served its purpose and is now in use by children. The library’s website is being revamped. A new company is working to make it bigger and better. Embry said library staff members have been helping people set up Overdrive applications on their devices. Embry has completed step one of the EDGE program. This program will guide the library in using technology with the community. Facilities Vinyl composition tiles have been cleaned in the entire building. Stanley Steamer workers are scheduled to clean the furniture, carpets and additional tile.
Policies approved Policies concerning the following were approved: calendar and holidays, responsibilities of the board and library director, conflict of interest, staff probationary period (changed to 60 days), employment status, employee evaluation form, reserves, incident report form, and emergency plan. Library closing The library board agreed that if the courthouse is closed due to inclement weather, the library will also be closed. The next meeting of the Morgan County Library board is scheduled 5:15 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 9 the the library in Versailles.

The highlight in the news this past week will be the passage of Right to Work in the Missouri House of Representatives. Over the past four years, I have been contacted many times on both sides of this issue with the vast majority of the district supporting the bill. I have voted in favor of this legislation because of the district’s majority opinion. Gov. Greitens had to make some tough decisions in the first week of his administration by withholding more than $140 million of funds from the current budget. Several things are causing the budget shortfall and our state constitution prohibits Missouri from spending more money than we receive. When we passed the budget for the current year, we had projected an increase in revenues of a little more than 4 percent; but the current numbers are showing an increase closer to 2 percent. The increase in items considered mandatory spending, such as Medicaid and pharmacy, also creates a shortage in funding for

programs not required by statute. This will be a very tough year and some critical changes will have to be made. The committee meetings have started and bills are moving through the process. I am on the Fiscal Review Committee and it has been given a little more responsibility this session. Every bill that goes through the process in the House of Representatives that has a cost of more than $100,000 will have to come through our committee for approval. Because of the budget situation, we have been charged with the responsibility of making sure the bills do not create a financial burden on the state that we might not be able to meet. We are not going to be a very popular group if we do our jobs correctly, but that is okay. The governor gave his State of the State address this past week and let us know his priorities for the coming year. Gov. Greitens is just starting his career in politics, so he is bringing a fresh viewpoint to the process
in the Capitol. I am sure we will be trying things that have been done before because of his lack of experience, but I am also sure we will be approaching some issues with new viewpoints that will lead to innovative solutions to old problems. This is a very interesting and exciting time in Jefferson City. I want to say congratulations to former Rep. Caleb Jones for being selected by Gov. Greitens as his deputy chief of staff. There will be a special election in August to fill his empty seat. In the meantime, you can still contact his office or mine with issues, comments, or problems and we will do our best to help. I am very pleased to have an intern this session. Holly Enowski will be helping us Tuesday and Thursday of each week as part of her internship through the University of Missouri. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns, please contact me at 573-751-2077 or email david.wood@house. mo.gov.

to combat aggressive weed
Farmers are urged to take steps against the spread of Palmer amaranth, a destructive and difficult-to-eradicate weed, says a Friday, Jan. 20 press release from the Missouri Farm Bureau Federation. The threat particularly affects growers who have created habitats for honey bees and other pollinators, which play an important role in agriculture. This includes growers who participate in the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Conservation Reserve Program. Missouri Farm Bureau president Blake Hurst said, “Missouri farmers need to be made aware that Palmer amaranth has been found in nearby states and take appropriate steps.� Hurst added, “Producers who have planted pollinator habi-
tat seed should closely monitor their fields. Producers who have seed yet to be planted may want to consider having their seed tested.� Farmers who have questions about seed testing may call Stan Cook at the Missouri Department of Agriculture Bureau, 573-876-0908; Dwaine Gelnar at the USDA Natural Resources and Conservation Service, 573876-0908; or Allen Powell at the USDA Farm SErvice Agency, 573-876-0925. “Every precaution needs to be taken to minimize the spread of this incredibly invasive and destructive weed,� said Hurst. For more information, call the Morgan County Farm Bureau at 573-378-5240.
Spring is right around the corner. Stop in today and make sure your mower is tuned-up and ready to perform.
