Cheesemaking Part II

Final Rock County hazardous waste disposal event of 2016 approaching

A discussion with Cheese Days Ambassador Jana Crandall’s Uncle Silvan Blum Hello, cheese fans! This month’s article is part two from a discussion with my cheesemaker uncle Silvan Blum of Chalet’s Deppeler Cheese Plant, giving me the inside scoop on the process of making cheese.

At the Deppeler Plant, where cheese is produced five days a week, cheesemakers start with 25,000 pounds of milk for a yield of about 2,300 pounds of cheese on each of those days. But Silvan notes that a high-moisture cheese uses less milk, whereas a low-moisture cheese uses a substantial amount of milk. When making Baby Swiss, a typical yield on 100 pounds of milk would be nine pounds of cheese! On the other hand, Limburger or Brick has a yield around twelve pounds per 100 pounds of milk. The older the milk is, the lower the yield. It makes sense that the price of cheese goes by moisture due to the correlation to yield. There are larger cheese plants that process 13 million pounds of milk a day, seven days a week.

I asked Silvan if he has ever had to throw out a batch of cheese. He said, “Swiss cheesemakers who have a 90-

95% success rate are doing well.” The Deppeler Cheese Factory has high standards for quality, taste and texture, as well as the goal of making a product that is safe and wholesome. Did you know that if cheese doesn’t meet texture or taste standards, it goes on for additional processing and may become a product like Velveeta?

Silvan also told me that there are now fewer dairy farms in the area, but these farms are now larger and producing more milk. A trend in the last ten years includes young farmers coming back to the family farm, who bring with them ideas for increased automation. What used to take two weeks now might take two days. At our family farm, we used to milk 70 cows and had three or four hired hands. Back in the day, this was considered a HUGE farm. Now, most farms are well over 100 cows, and this change took place so the farms could stay competitive.

The cheese industry is moving in the same direction. Cheese plants need to automate various steps in the process to stay competitive. They have to reduce costs, increase ef-

ficiency, and increase output, while maintaining high-quality products.

A benefit for Albany’s Dean Walz is scheduled for Saturday, August 20 at 11 a.m. The event will take place at the river-side home of Jay and Rhonda Dailey at 406 South Mill Street in Albany.

Walz, who served on the Albany Fire Department for 20 years, was critically injured in a work accident in June after falling 50 feet from a boom truck while cutting trees.

Walz was sent to UW-Madison via MedFlight, where he remained in critical condition with injuries to his brain, along with several broken bones. Weeks later, he was transferred to a thirty-day rehabilitation program in Madison. He is now in Milwaukee, completing rehabilitation therapy with a physician specializing in brain injuries.

Amber Evans, a very close friend of Walz’s daughter, knew she wanted to do something to help as soon as the incident occurred.

“When everything happened, I knew a benefit was something that I wanted to put on,” she said. “Jay Dailey [Walz’s father-in-law] mentioned that he would like to host, and we went from there.”

Evans and Dailey, along with Dailey’s wife, Rhonda, went to work planning the event and have been putting it together for the past month and a half. “Dean is like a second dad to me, and he’s my two-year old’s best friend,” Evans said. “I know that if the tables were turned, he and his family would do anything for mine, so I wanted to do everything I could to help.”

At the event, pulled pork will be served beginning at noon until it’s

In addition, the event will include a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction. One of the items to be sold in the auction is a signed football from the Green Bay Packers.

“Proceeds will be given to the family to help with bills [and] medical expenses and to take some of the weight off their shoulders since Dean was the main provider,” Evans said. She also added that Walz’s wife, Julie, has yet to return to work, and his daughter, Cheryl, resigned from her summer job to help take care of him. Walz’s youngest daughter, Tara, has been helping to keep things in order at home.

Anyone wishing to contribute toward the benefit may donate baskets or single items for the silent auction; food, drinks, or baked goods; or tents, tables, chairs, or table service. Volunteers wishing to help on the day of the event should contact Evans.

Benefit tickets are available for purchase at Gabriella’s Restaurant, Center Tavern, and Homebound Hairstyling in Albany.

Competitors take off in a past Fun Run. This year, a Fun Run for all ages is scheduled for 8 a.m. on Saturday, August 13, and the Kids’ Fun Run, sponsored by the Jaycees, is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. the same day.

Shoppers enjoy live music while perusing booths at last year’s Wildflower Art Festival in Veterans Park. The festival is returning this year during Covered Bridge Days on Saturday, August 13.

Covered Bridge Days is Brodhead’s biggest festival! From the Fun Run/Walk at 8 a.m. to the street dance that runs from 8 p.m. until midnight on Saturday, August 13, the festival is packed with activities for everyone.

The Wildflower Art Festival will take place in Veterans Park from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday. Many returning favorites plus several exciting new artists will display their work, the “Ice Cream Man” will be back, and live music will be provided.

On the downtown square, you will find sidewalk sales and vendors, live music, food booths, historic wagon tours, a kids’ fun run at 11:30 a.m., the Historical Society Depot Museum, and a Garden Club display at the Bank of Brodhead.

Don’t forget about “Embrace the Race,” located close by at the old water tower area, where you can take a pontoon ride up the Mill Race to the Headgates. On the ride, you’ll see not only wildlife like turtles, songbirds, and waterfowl, but also all the great progress that the Pearl Island Recreational Corridor volunteers have completed as they continually work to improve the area for hiking, biking, picnicking, fishing, canoeing, and kayaking.

The south end of town will host many attractions, as well, including the 10th annual horse show, a saw mill demo, a tractor show, and the Thresheree. Vendors, a garden tractor expo, tractor pulls, and food stands will also be available.

Area hobbyist to showcase fraction of tractor collection at Covered Bridge Days

By Siara Schwartzlow EDITOR

Andrew Meier, of Monroe, has accumulated a collection of 68 garden tractors and seven full-size tractors, along with many implements. The majority of his collection consists of John Deere tractors, at least eight of which he plans to bring to Covered Bridge

Days this year.

Meier has been collecting for nine years now. He began as a senior in high school in 2007. “By 2010,” he said, “I had thirty mowers.” Since he began his collection, he has kept his eyes and ears peeled. He says he acquires most of his tractors through word of mouth, but he also frequents auctions.

As many collectors know, collectible tractors are often in need of aesthetic work. Meier has completed the restoration of one his tractors himself, and he has paid for several others to be restored. “I also have a lot of implements that are steel-wheeled,” he said. “I’m restoring those now.”

Particularly noteworthy are Meier’s Patio Series tractors because of their rarity. According to an article by Mary Herbers in Green Magazine, a publication centered on John Deere products, the Patio Series was introduced in 1969.

“The 1969 model of the custom color series was painted entirely Dogwood White except for the hood and seat,” Herbers wrote.

“The customer would choose a color from Patio Red, Sunset Orange, Spruce Blue, or April Yellow. The dealer would then attach the hood and seat in the color they had selected.”

According to Herbers’s article, production ended with the 1971 line. The manufacturers quickly realized that John Deere enthusiasts were far more interested in purchasing tractors in the traditional green and yellow. “Many dealers had to paint their remaining units green to even sell them,” Herbers added. “Often during a restoration today, collectors will discover there is white paint under the green on their 1971 (or even 1970) garden tractor.”

After seven years, Meier has successfully collected one Patio Series tractor in each of the four colors they were manufactured in.

Meier has also undertaken a project that substantially altered one of his lawnmowers, a John Deere 112. It now serves as a display case for toy tractors. Meier came up with the concept, and he was able to execute his plans with the help of some of his friends. He hopes to bring this to the Covered Bridge Days Tractor Show next weekend.

“I’ve been to shows all over the Midwest since I was little,” he said.

“Brodhead is probably my favorite.” Meier noted how welcomed he feels at Brodhead’s show thanks to Jim Huffman, one of the event’s coordinators, and the rest of the volunteers who help to put the festival together.

Stuff the Bus helps to provide school supplies to Albany students

By Beth Blakemore CORRESPONDENT

The Albany Lions’ Stuff the Bus event was held last Saturday, August 6, to help gather school supplies for local students in need.

Throughout the school year, Albany teachers will have access to the materials and will be able to supply them to students as needed.

Since this is the event’s third year, organizers have expanded their goals.

Laurie Holthau, affiliated with the Lions Club, said that this year’s aim is to fill an entire bus this year with supplies like note-

books, pencils, erasers, rulers, folders, and even packpacks.

Every donation helps. According to the Wisconsin Lions, the “2015 estimated cost to send a child to school was $630.” Nearly one hundred dollars of that number is estimated to go toward supplies alone.

Those wishing to contribute toward the Stuff the Bus project may donate supplies at Albany Dollar General, Albany Mini Mart, New Image Salon, Town Bank, and Sugar River General Store. Donors may also send checks to Albany Lions Club, P.O. Box 354, Albany WI, 53502.

Tradition continues at Oakley Union Church

For decades, churches have held ice cream socials during the summer. These events were usually held outside, picnic-style, and in most, cases the ice cream was hand-churned.

These socials provided many opportunities for area families and the church. These included the chance for community members to come together to discuss current events and the great opportunity for some of the best pie makers in the area to show off their skills. For youth, it was a chance to see their friends again and remember that school was out for the summer (they didn’t have cell phones back then). Finally, it was a way to raise some much needed money for the church.

Over the years,as our times have changed, the ritual of these ice cream socials has declined; however, there are still some churches in our area that continue to uphold the tradition of this event. The Oakley Union Methodist Church is one of them.

For years, the church has held their Ice Cream Social around midsummer, with the hope that people from the surrounding communities will come to their little church on the hill for a wonderful meal and a slice of heaven in the form of a pie.

The Oakley Union Methodist Church of rural Juda will again be hosting their annual Ice Cream Social tomorrow, August 11. The event will run from 4:30 to 7:30 pm that evening. Pies of all types will be served alongside BBQ, hot dogs, baked beans, potato salad, fruit salad, and beverages.

The cost of this meal is just $6.00 for adults and $4.00 for kids 10 years old and under.

New this year will be a pie auction starting around 5 p.m. All proceeds from this event will go directly back to the church.

Make sure you take a drive into the country on Thursday evening for a slice of pie with a scoop of ice cream along with a meal that will not leave you hungry.

You can find the church at the corner of Gerber and Union Roads, just a few miles southeast of Juda.

The purpose of this program is to further youth’s knowledge of animals while providing them an opportunity to expand their communication and decisionmaking skills.

Green County 4-H’s qualifying Junior Team took seventh place at the State 4-H Dairy Judging Contest. The team was made up of Marissa Vosberg, Natalie Roe, Emma Hendrickson, and Nicholas Roe and was coached by Aaron Breunig.

Wisconsin FFA Foundation celebrates 2016 Golf Outings’ success The Wisconsin FFA Foundation is excited to announce the results of another successful round of summer golf outings. The three 2016 events raised $26,000 to support agricultural education and FFA throughout Wisconsin.

On Monday, July 11, the 2016 Northwest Outing took place in Eau Claire, followed by the Northeast event in De Pere on Tuesday, July 12 and the Southern outing in Prairie du Sac on Monday, July 25. The support for FFA was clear. Nearly 90 area businesses, agricultural organizations, or individuals donated their resources as hole sponsors or through in-kind items, while 240 golfers attended the three July events.

The proceeds from the combined golf outings contribute significantly to the foundation’s annual fund, a vital source of financial provision for FFA programs. During the 201516 year, the Wisconsin FFA Foundation’s annual fund supplemented

27 proficiency award areas, career development events, and speaking contests. It also significantly aided in the 2015-16 state officer team training and leadership training materials.

“There was such a positive, contagious energy at this year’s golf outings,” said Sara Schoenborn, Wisconsin FFA Foundation executive director. “All three events were a great success! It’s because of generous agricultural advocates around the state that we can continue to truly advance the mission of the Wisconsin FFA organization through these outings.”

Mark your calendars for the 2017 Wisconsin FFA Foundation Golf Outings. The Northwest Outing is scheduled for Monday, July 17, the Northeast for Tuesday, July 18, and the Southern for Monday, July 24.

For more information on registration and sponsorship opportunities, watch the events tab at www.wisconsinffafoundation.org.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4 p.m. until 5 p.m. and again from 6 p.m. until 7 p.m., the UWExtension of Rock County will be offering the Strong Women Program, an exercise program for middle-aged and older adults.

Classes will begin Tuesday, September 6. All instructors have been trained in the Strong Women program and have had personal successes participating in and leading strength training. Each class includes progressive weight training, flexibility focus, and balance activities. The program is appropriate for both sedentary and active women Strong Women classes are also being offered in Janesville, Beloit, Clinton, Milton, and Evansville.

Angela Flickinger, UW-Extension Family Living Educator and Strong Women Ambassador of Wisconsin, is coordinating these county-wide programs.

The Strong Women Program was developed by Miriam Nelson, Ph.D., an associate professor at the Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University.

The program is based on years of research on how strength training and proper nutrition improves the health of women of all ages.

“Strength is a critical factor in living healthier, more active lives,” Nelson said. “Our research shows that a program of strength training not only improves bone density but reduces falls, improves arthritis symptoms, and increases flexibility and strength.”

Over 500 individuals in Rock County have participated in the Strong Women program. Results indicated that these participants gained physical strength, flexibility, balance, and knowledge of nutrition and health. These women have also indicated that they have benefited socially from meeting and getting to know new people.

Albany’s Ainsley Krueger attends Change Lives, Teach Agriculture workshop On June 14, during the Wisconsin FFA State Convention, FFA members from across Wisconsin were invited to participate in the annual “Change Lives, Teach Agriculture” workshop, put on by the Wisconsin Association of Agricultural Educators.

Ainsley Krueger of the Albany FFA Chapter submitted a proficiency application in the area of agricultural education and was invited to attend this event.

The presenters kicked the workshop off with an activity that got all the students involved and allowed them to get to know one another. The activity also mixed up the room to prepare participants for the discussions that followed.

Following the activity, students were able to hear first-hand the details involved in a career in agricultural

education. A panel of current agricultural education instructors, university professors, and students majoring in agricultural education shared experiences, answered questions, and gave their perspective on their careers. After the panel, participants were given the opportunity to speak with fellow students interested in becoming agricultural instructors and were encouraged to take time to discuss their questions one-on-one with panel members.

The experience covered both the highs and lows of the agricultural education profession, giving students a true feel for what may lay ahead.

According to the New Richmond instructor, Rachel Sauvola, the workshop gave an “accurate portrayal of what might be coming down the road for them. With the panel, students got to hear from teachers who have been in the classroom.” For those deciding

HEALTH BENEFITS OF POMEGRANATES

The antioxidants in pomegranates may help protect against cancer.

Drinking pomegranate juice may also help lower cholesterol and improve blood flow. In one small study, researchers looked at patients with severe cartoid artery blockages. Participants were given 1 ounce of pomegranate juice a day for a year. Results showed a 30% reduction in arterial wall thickness. A control group that didn’t drink the juice had a 9% increase in thickness.

Another study showed significant improvement in memory function after 4 weeks of 8 ounces a day of the juice. If you are taking medication, check with your pharmacist about possible interactions.

Green County Master Showman results released The 2016 Green County Fair Master Showman was awarded to Marley Malkow of the Albany FFA, and Reserve Master Showman was awarded to Kelsey Klitzman of the Dayton Dairylanders at the eleventh annual “Master Showman” competition last month.

The Master Showman contest brings together the top senior (grades ten and above) showmen to determine who is the best at showing and handling all of the different species.

Two exhibitors from beef, dairy, goats, sheep, and swine participated in the contest, and one exhibitor from the rabbit and poultry division competed.

Each exhibitor brought their animal of the species in which they qualified. The twelve showmen then rotated animals and showed them to the best of their ability. The youth were judged by qualified showmanship judges in the Green County community.

The judges tested the exhibitors’ knowledge on the species and observed their showing abilities. The judges’ scores were tallied, and the exhibitor with the highest score became the 2016 Green County Fair Master Showman.

The following are the 2016 Master Showman participants: Beef Division Rhett Katzenberger, Young Americans Traiten Gorr, Monroe FFA Dairy Haley Reeson, York Rachel McCullough, Juda FFA Goats Sharlene Swedlund, Juda FFA Jessamine Burch, New Glarus 4-H Sheep Colin Novak, Clarno

Jacen Wilinski, New Glarus FFA Swine Abby Klahn, Oregon FFA Kelsey Klitzman, Dayton Dairylanders Rabbits Abby Bethke, Cheese Country Clovers Poultry Marley Malkow (Albany FFA).

The top ten participants received medallions and t-shirts for being qualifiers in the event, while the Reserve Champion winner received a medallion and plaque.

The overall winner received a plaque as well as an embroidered fleece jacket.

The Green County UW-Extension coordinated the 2016 Green County Fair Master Showman Competition with sponsorship from Badgerland Financial, Union Bank and Trust, Colony Brands, and the Green County Farm Bureau.

Thank you to the Green County Ag Chest for handing out tasty treats during the event and to Dan Ziegler, New Glarus Agriculture teacher and FFA advisor, for announcing the event.

Master Showman judges were: Beef Mackenzie Cash, Beloit Dairy Sara Harn, Brooklyn Goats Hannah Shilts, Orfordville Poultry Laura Jorgensen, Brooklyn Rabbits Bob Dietzman, Evansville Sheep Jillian Miller, Brodhead Swine Rob McConnell, Clinton Thank you to our judges for donating their time and expertise to the event.

Green County Herdsmanship awards announced The 2016 Herdsmanship contest recently took place at the Green County Fair. Herdsmanship is an event that allows the exhibitors to be the judges. They have the chance to score the other clubs/chapters in their species based on the preparation of the exhibit, appearance and attitude of the exhibitors, and the care of the exhibit. It encourages the exhibitors to work as a club or chapter in order to maintain a clean exhibit and share their knowledge on their projects with fair-goers.

Projects that participate in Herdsmanship include beef, large-herd dairy, small-herd dairy, goats, rabbits, sheep, and swine.

Last year, the Rock Valley Veterinary Medical Association kindly donated a plaque that will display the winner for each species for 10 years and will sponsor the addition of every first-place club or chapter every year. This plaque is displayed in the Youth in Action Building dur-

ing the Green County Fair and stays in the Fair Office for the rest of the year.

This year’s top two clubs and chapters were: Beef First place: Next Generation Second place: Clarence Bridge Pioneers Dairy: small herd First place: Spring Grove Honest Workers Second place: Clarno Dairy: large herd First place: Clarence Bridge Pioneers Second place: New Glarus 4-H Goats First place: Washington Center Second place: Spring Grove Honest Workers Rabbit First place: Cheese Country Clovers Second place: Spring Grove Honest Workers

Sheep First place: Clarno Second place: Dayton Dairylanders Swine First place: Next Generation Second place: Washington Center.

The clubs/chapters with the top two scores won a monetary prize.

The clubs with 75 out of 100 points received an ice cream coupon.

Monroe Clinic welcomes new residents with local roots Two new residents and two new fellows have joined Monroe Clinic’s medical team as they pursue their medical training.

Launched in 2015, Monroe Clinic’s family medicine residency program has attracted two new faces to the medical team: Brittany Blomberg, DO, and Mark Patterson, DO. However, these new faces are actually familiar to the region. Both have roots in Northern Illinois and rotated with Monroe Clinic as medical students.

Dr. Patterson grew up in Dixon, Illinois. Before earning his medical degree, he worked as an Intensive Care Unit nurse. Dr. Blomberg is a Freeport, Illinois, native and a Highland Community College alumni.

“As incoming residents, they already have a good understanding of Monroe Clinic’s culture and mission,” said Lori Rodefeld, Medical Education and Residency Coordinator for Monroe Clinic. She credits their positive experience as medical students at the organization as the reason they chose to return to Monroe Clinic as residents.

A resident physician is a physician in training who has graduated from an allopathic (MD) or osteopathic (DO) medical school. Residents spend three years of postgraduate training to learn family-centered care in a rural setting. Resident physicians are supervised by boardcertified physicians at Monroe Clinic.

In addition to Monroe Clinic’s second class of residents, two new fellows join the organization. Michael Yeh, MD, comes to Monroe Clinic as an emergency medicine fellow, and Ather Ali, MD, as a hospitalist fellow. To train for a specialty, doctors enter a fellowship for one to three years after their residencies and are known as “fellows.”

Mark Patterson and Brittany Blomberg.

“Monroe Clinic’s fellowship program began in 2013, and two years later, we launched our residency program, which officially made Monroe Clinic a teaching hospital,” said Rodefeld. “It’s incredibly rewarding to nurture these doctors’ interest in rural medicine during the early stages of their careers. And whether their training leads them to a successful practice here or somewhere else, it’s satisfying to know Monroe Clinic’s dedicated team of caregivers has a hand in shaping the next generation of physicians.”

Town of Cadis. Carolan was released pending court.

Friday, August 5 Driver’s license violation At 4:18 a.m., Alfonso NogalMatias, 44, of Beloit, was cited for Operating a Motor Vehicle without a Valid Driver’s License in the West 200 block of State Highway 81 in the Town of Spring Grove. Nogal-Matias was released pending court.

by Deborah R Stietz, 49, of Winslow, was traveling south on County Highway G when she failed to negotiate a curve and entered the gravel ditch.

This caused the motorcycle to overturn. It came to a stop by striking a guardrail. Stietz was ejected from the motorcycle. She sustained injuries as a result of the accident and was transported by EMS to a Rockford Hospital. Stietz was not wearing a helmet but was wearing eye protection. The motorcycle sustained moderate damage and was towed from the scene.
