Canton Receives Grant for Downtown

C-SC HOMECOMING

LAGRANGE MAN DIES OF INJURIES

Canton has been selected in a competitive application process to participate in a cost-sharing Affiliate Grant that provides training, mentoring, and technical services to revitalization programs in Missouri’s historic commercial districts. The grant is provided by Missouri Main Street Connection, Inc. (MMSC).

MMSC staff will visit with Canton’s downtown community leaders to evaluate existing and future needs of the downtown, and then schedule a series of customized training sessions equipping them to concentrate on their local revitalization goals.

The goal of the grant is the development a sustainable, volunteer-based organization that will carry out an economic development program based on the preservation of historic assets in the downtown, using the Main Street 4-Point Approach® to Revitalization.

With support from MMSC, the Canton revitalization group anticipates: expanding the Levee Walk to include trails that lead to

other cultural and heritage points of interest, which will expand tourism and educational opportunities for residents.

Creating a downtown comprehensive program that will feature infrastructure improvements, plus restoration of historic buildings and recruiting businesses to occupy commercial vacancies.

Using ideas within the Canton Downtown Vision and Development Strategy created in 2008 that will serve as a foundation for revitalization planning. The experience of creating that plan gave the citizens of Canton new confidence and enthusiasm, which will carry over to the creation of a successful, long-term revitalization organization.

The grant period is for two years. During this time Canton’s leadership for downtown revitalization will receive on-site training and mentoring from MMSC to help them establish a downtown revitalization organization that will engage the entire community as a participant and beneficiary of

revitalization. Representatives of the downtown group also will attend regional revitalization workshops and conferences conducted by MMSC. The Affiliate Grant is a 40/60 match, requiring the community to contribute 40 percent of the cash value of the services and MMCS to contribute 60 percent. The total grant value in training and mentoring services is $23,500. The City of Canton will contribute around $9,000 and a portion of that will come from the Lewis County I.D.A. Canton also is now designated as an Affiliate in the Missouri Main Street Tier Structure, which ranks revitalization progress on a standard established by the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s Main Street Center. Missouri Main Street Connection currently is providing revitalization training and mentoring to 145 communities in the state, plus Main Street accreditation services.

Canton Mayor Jerod Phillips said that he hopes the grant will enable the city to stabilize and refurbish the downtown area. Revitalization of downtown areas is a proven method used in thousands of communities that will help to preserve the downtown area and provide incentives for both new and existing businesses. The study done in 2008 gave the city the blueprint to follow and they will utilize that information, which will give them a jumpstart on upcoming projects.

“The downtown area is the cultural hub of our small town with most of the community events taking place in the area,” Phillips said. “It is the intent to preserve the downtown area for future generations and improve the quality of life for those who reside in or visit Canton.”

Canton native Andrew William Steinbeck will soon be traveling to Houghton College in New York for his first nationally-recognized performance.

For most of his life, Steinbeck has been part of the musical scene in Lewis County, performing independently and with church and school groups.

Steinbeck now is in his final year at Truman State University in Kirksville, Mo., studying music composition.

The annual national conference of the Christian Fellowship of Art Music Composers (CFAMC) is held at the Greatbatch School of Music at Houghton College in Houghton, New York. Music for the conference was selected among submissions from professional composers, and includes a composition by Steinbeck and one by his mentor, Warren P. Gooch, of Kirksville, Mo. Steinbeck’s musical composition for Baritone voice, bassoon and

piano, titled “Se Dice en el Campo,” was produced in April 2013 based on original poetry by Steinbeck in the Spanish language. The title translates, “In the countryside they say...” This piece will be performed on the first of five concerts at the conference, on October 25,

by Steinbeck on bassoon, Benjamin Forrester on voice, and Michael Marmorstein on piano.

The CFAMC conference is one of three major performances of Steinbeck this month. Steinbeck will present an hour of musical praise to God in hymns and original worship songs at Immanuel United Methodist Church on Oct. 10 at 5:30 p.m. All members of the community are welcome to attend. In addition, Steinbeck will present his Degree Recital in Music Composition at the Ophelia Parrish Performance Hall at Truman State University on Oct. 21 at 8 p.m.

Letter to the Editor Dear editor, The Food Bank for Central and Northeast Missouri urges the deer hunters in your newspaper’s readership to “Share the Harvest” when they are successful this fall.

As providers of food to local food pantries in your area, The Food Bank recognizes Share the Harvest is truly “neighbors feeding neighbors.”

Archery, muzzleloader or firearms hunters can donate some or all of a deer to Share the Harvest by taking it to a participating processor or locker. All Share the Harvest venison stays in the community where it is donated. For participating processors in your area, see the Missouri Department of Conservation’s website, mdc.mo.gov.

Thanks to the Conservation Federation of Missouri and its partners, all or most of the fee is covered for processing the deer into 1-pound chubs of ground veni-

son. Healthy red meat is a prime resource for feeding the hungry, and one that is always in short supply. Because it is low in fat and loaded with natural vitamins and minerals, venison is a fantastic addition to the diets of Missourians in need.

Last season, hunters in The Food Bank’s 32-county region donated over 157,000 pounds of venison. Since local needs for emergency food have increased, let’s shoot for topping that figure this year.

We salute our responsible deer hunters and urge them to make a big difference in the lives of their neighbors this fall by bagging a deer (or more than one) for the Share the Harvest program.

Sincerely, Scott L. Gordon Communications Coordinator The Food Bank for Central & Northeast Missouri

Thank You We would like to thank everyone for the donations, acts of kindness, and all the amazing support and generosity from the entire community, schools, churches, and organizations, after our house fire.

A special thank you to the Fire Departments, Police Department, and Emergency Services.

with our staff to ensure these acres are not considered highly erodible or wetland acres,” said Cadle. “I assure you, the hour or so spent working with our staff to make sure your plans won’t impact these fragile lands before you head to the field, will be time well spent.”

USDA enacted Highly Erodible and Wetland Conservation Provisions in 1985 to reduce soil loss; reduce sedimentation and improve water quality; preserve the nation’s wetland; protect the nation’s longterm capacity to produce food and fiber; and remove incentive for persons to produce agricultural commodities on highly erodible land or converted wetlands.

USDA defines highly erodible land as cropland, hayland or pasture that can erode at excessive rates.

These lands contain soils that have an erodibility index of eight or more. And, a wetland has a predominance of wet soils types, is inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration suf-

Campen competes at State 4-H Fashion Revue Jessica Campen of Canton, Missouri was one of 117 Missouri youth that participated in a clothing construction and consumerism contest during the State 4-H Fashion Revue held September 21st on the University of Missouri campus. Jessica participated in the Clothes You Make- Formal Wear Senior Division where she placed first with the prom dress she constructed and modeled and received a $50 Wal-Mart gift card for her efforts.

“This contest is designed to be fun, while helping youth enhance their skills and knowledge about sewing, garment selection, knitting and crochet and the importance of settling and achieving goals,” said Alison Copeland, MU 4-H youth specialist. “State 4-H Fashion Revue is also about exposing young people to the research, education and other efforts MU is doing in these areas. We want them to see what they might be able to do with their interests at a university like MU.” The participants, ranging in age from 8 to 18,

ficient to support water tolerant vegetation and, under normal circumstances, supports a prevalence of such vegetation.

According to FSA policy, to be in compliance with the highly erodible land and wetland conservation provisions, producers must agree, by certifying on FSA’s Form AD-1026, that they will not produce an agricultural commodity on highly erodible land without a conservation system, plant an agricultural commodity on a converted wetland and convert a wetland to make possible the production of an agricultural commodity.

Any planned deviation to the agreement having the potential to convert HEL or wetland acreage, or even land that might not yet have HEL or wetland determinations, requires that producers update the Form AD1026. FSA will notify NRCS and NRCS will then provide highly erodible land or wetland technical determinations on the acreage in question.

Cadle said that produc-

Fashion Revue participants also gathered in the Memorial Union on the campus to learn about other topics such as public speaking and garment manufacturing processes.

Farm Service Agency reminds farmers about breaking ground rules Mark Cadle, State Executive Director for Missouri’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) cautions agricultural producers to consult with FSA and the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) before breaking out new ground for production as doing so without prior authorization might put a producer’s federal farm program benefits in jeopardy.

Although checking with USDA anytime ground is cleared or otherwise converted is a good business practice, this is especially true for ground that is considered highly erodible (HEL) or is considered a wetland. Producers participating in federal farm programs and any person or entity considered to be an “affiliated person” of the producer, are subject to regulations pertaining to ground having HEL or wetland determinations.

“Before heading out with a dozer to clear a fence line or hiring a contractor to drain or fill in wet areas in a field, it is extremely important that you have consulted

3A

ers participating in FSA and NRCS programs who are not in compliance with highly erodible land or wetland conservation compliance provisions are not eligible to receive benefits for most programs administered by both agencies.

And, if a producer has received program benefits and is later found to be noncomplaint, he/she would be required to refund all payments received and might be assessed liquidated damages.

“We realize that between harvest and planning for the 2014 planting season, producers get busy, but I can’t stress enough the importance of ensuring that all the i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed before converting land for production – this includes former Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) ground,” Cadle said.

“Bottom line… when in doubt, come by our office and you’ll leave with peace of mind knowing that your eligibility for farm program benefits is not at risk.”

To all of our teams, sponsors, volunteers & guests who made the 4th Annual Korndogg Memorial Softball Tournament a great success!

It is reported that only 500 Gibson tractors were made. The World Agriculture Expo also includes a plowing contest and agriculture equipment manufacturers from all over the world. It is held in the United States about once every 22 years and the crowd is estimated to be 250,000.

inability to get an operator to run their linotype machine. Last week they were unable to set any type but came out with four pages of ads and some plate matter. The help question for newspaper publishers is a serious question especially as concerns machine operators. If an editor himself is an operator he is all right; otherwise he is up against it, for it is absolutely impossible to hire anyone.

With the coming of the new wheat crop the Food Administration has made some radical changes in the wheat conservation rules. Despite the prospects for a large crop, all conservation cannot be thrown aside but there will be no wheatless days and wheatless meals this year, according to present plans. The 50-50 rule, requiring with every purchase of flour an equal amount of some other cereals be bought, has been rescinded.

Households can now buy one pound of substitutes with every four pounds of wheat flour.

W.R. Order has the contract for constructing the M.E. South Church in Canton and the work is underway. The structure will be a model of modern architecture. It is to have four gables, corner tower, double entrance, including floor; raised, paneled ceiling, Gothic windows with cathedral glass.

Messrs High and Greene, photographers of Canton, are making some very fine views. Mr. Greene, at the time of the pole raising at this place, took a view of the crowd fronting the courthouse, immediately after the pole was up. There were some 200 persons included in the view and nearly everyone can be recognized.

Rev. J.A. Wailes of this place who has been pastor in charge of the Monticello circuit for the past three years, has again been returned to this circuit by the M.E. South Conference held at Gallatin last week.

2013 League Meeting

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor, We have been fortunate in Northeast Missouri to have some outstanding individuals representing us in Jefferson City. That is definitely true in regards to Rep. Craig Redmon.

Rep. Redmon continually has worked to bring people together at the Capitol to solve problems facing public education.

He has distinguished himself as a person of dignity, high ethical standards and devoted to serving the people who elected him to office. We might not always agree on every issue, but Rep. Redmon always has been a true statesman as he listens to all sides of an issue before making a decision.

Recently, Rep. Redmon had to make a difficult decision regarding the tax cut issue that was vetoed

by Gov. Jay Nixon. As a Republican, I know that he is in favor of reduced taxes, less government bureaucracy and strengthening the business climate in Missouri. At the same time, he also is a very staunch supporter of Missouri Public Schools, especially the rural schools of this state.

I know that his vote on

the tax cut issue may have been the hardest decision he has made during his service as your state representative. However, when it came time ot push the voting button on his desk, Rep. Redmon chose to side with the school children in Northeast Missouri. For that courageous move, you should be extremely proud of him.

Rep. Redmon believes that education in itself is a tremendous economic development tool. When we turn our back on the children of this state, we turn our back on our future. I hope you will join me in thanking Craig Redmon for his unwavering support of Missouri Public Schools and for his hard work, service and devotion to the citizens of Northeast Missouri.

We could solve a lot more problems in the state if there were more representatives like Craig Redmon!

I am especially proud, since Craig is a former School Board President of the Canton R-V School District.

Yours in Education, W.A. Andy Anderson Superintendent Canton R-V School

Lewis County Youth Celebrate National 4-H Week More than 8 million young people across the country will be celebrating National 4-H Week, which takes place annually during the first full week in October. Lewis County 4-H uses National 4-H Week to celebrate the great things that the 4-H youth development program offers young people and highlights the incredible 4-H youth who work each day to make a positive impact on their community.

Research has proven that participation in 4-H has a significant positive impact on young people. Recent findings from the Tufts University 4-H Study of Positive Youth Development indicate that, when compared to their peers, young people in 4-H are nearly four times more likely to contribute to their communities, two times more likely to pursue healthy behaviors and two times more likely to engage in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) programs in the out-of-school time.

Lewis County 4-H boasts 95 members in five 4-H Community Clubs actively participating for the 2012-2013 4-H Year.

During the last year, the Lucky Clover, Monticello, Oyster Prairie, Pleasant Grove and Ten Mile 4-H Clubs participated in

4-H Camp, Livestock Judging, Teen Conference, State Congress, the State Shoot, Fashion Revue and the Lewis County Fair.

Lewis County members have presented demonstrations and participated in a variety of community service projects. In Lewis County, we have 49 4-H Volunteers who help our youth to build life skills, engage in science and connect to the community.

4-H, the largest youth development organization in the world, is a community of seven million young people across the globe learning leadership, citizenship and life skills. In the U.S., 4-H programs are implemented by the 109 land grant universities and the Cooperative Extension System through their 3,100 local Extension offices across the county. Overseas, 4-H programs operate throughout more than 50 countries. For more information about 4-H or to join, please contact Katie Hogan, 4-H youth program assistant, at the Lewis County Extension Office at 767-5273 or by stopping by the office in Monticello. You can also check out the Lewis County Extension website http://extension.missouri. edu/lewis or on Facebook at https://www. facebook.com/lewiscountyextensionmissouri .

Canton from Camp Point in 1973 and Jim was the meat department manager at the IGA grocery store and lived near Canton on Route 81. Their daughter attended school at Canton R-V. Mrs. Stout said they enjoyed living in Canton and were members of the St. Joseph Catholic Church. They purchased farm ground and built a new home near Camp Point in 1994.

Mrs. and Mrs. Stout sold their Kent Feed Dealership in Quincy in 2001 after 25 years of service. They enjoy doing lots of volunteer work at the St. Thomas Catholic Church in Camp Point where they are members and the Golden Historical Society in Golden where Mr. Stout is a board member. They enjoy winter months in Florida.

Stay Alert During Harvest Time The Missouri State Highway Patrol reminds drivers that this is the time of year when crops are harvested. Thus, drivers should expect heavier farm machinery traffic-especially on rural highways. Farming plays a vital role in Missouriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy, history, and identity.

Safety is important to drivers and farmers sharing the road. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We encourage everyone traveling in Missouriâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farming communities to stay alert and drive courteously,â&#x20AC;? said Colonel Ron Replogle, superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Farmers and motorists can share the road. Please obey all traffic laws and remain vigilant, no matter what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re driving.â&#x20AC;?

There were a total of 173 Missouri traffic crashes involving farm equipment in 2012. In those crashes one driver was killed and 21 were injured. In addition, two farm tractor passengers were injured.

The following are reminders for safe travel during this busy time of year: MOTORISTS Stay alert for slow moving farm equipment.

When you come up behind a tractor or other farm machinery, please slow down and be patient. Wait to pass until you have a clear view of the road ahead and there is no oncoming traffic. Never pass on a hill or curve.

Collisions commonly occur when a motorist tries to pass a leftturning farm vehicle. A tractor that appears to be pulling to the right side of the road to let motorists pass, instead may be preparing to

make a wide left turn.

Watch the farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hand and light signals closely.

Pay close attention to farm equipment entering and leaving the highway from side roads and driveways.

Special attention must be paid when traveling at dawn or dusk when the sun makes it difficult for drivers to see.

FARMERS Make sure any farm equipment being driven on Missouri roadways is properly marked with lights and a â&#x20AC;&#x153;slow-moving vehicleâ&#x20AC;? emblem.

Drive as far to the right as possible.

If traffic accumulates behind you on a road where it is difficult to make a safe pass, you should pull off onto the side of the road in a level area, so the vehicles can pass.

If possible, never travel on roadways at dawn or dusk when it is more difficult for drivers of other vehicles to see.

Like other motor vehicles, most modern farm tractors have seat belts. Always use a seat belt when operating a tractor equipped with a roll-over protection structure.

Often, all-terrain vehicles are used for agricultural purposes.

ATVs being used for farming can only travel on highways during daylight hours and must be equipped with lights, a bicycle flag, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;slow-moving vehicleâ&#x20AC;? emblem. The law requires anyone under the age of 18 to wear a safety helmet when operating an ATV; the Patrol, however, recommends all operators to

wear a safety helmet regardless of age. *Farmers are encouraged to review the regulations that pertain to farm vehicles and the transportation of goods. These regulations include, but are not limited to: *When crossing state lines a truck is considered a commercial motor vehicle if it has a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 10,001 lbs. or more, therefore, it must comply with federal regulations. This applies to farm vehicles.

Farm vehicles must display a USDOT number and the farm name.

The driver of a farm vehicle must be at least 21 years of age.

Those driving a farm vehicle must have a commercial driver license if the truckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s GVWR exceeds 26,000 lbs., if the truckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gross combined weight rating (GCWR) exceeds 26,000 lbs., and the truck is operated

more than 150 miles from the farm.

The farmer may need to have the International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) if the truck weighs over 26,000 lbs., or if it is licensed for over 26,000 lbs., or if it has three axles on the power unit. Fuel permits may be purchased from the state you are entering in lieu of the IFTA. The driver must possess a current medical card (DOT physical) when operating a truck with a GVWR of 10,001 or more lbs.

Permits must be obtained from MoDOT if you are traveling on an interstate and your vehicle or load is over the normal size and weight requirements.

Drivers must carry a log book if they operate a truck more than 100 miles from the farm. If the vehicle stays intrastate, this does not apply to vehicles licensed for 42,000 lbs. or less.

Maywood News

By Loretta Bringer

Remember the Firemanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chicken Barbecue on Oct, 5 at the firehouse in Maywood beginning at 5 p.m.

The Olney and Opal Carter estate sale was held on Saturday and was well attended .Olney and Opal were long time Maywood residents and well known in the area. Their son, John and wife, Christine, continue to live on the Carter farm.

Bro. Jeremy Wallace filled the pulpit at South Union Baptist Church Sunday. Everyone enjoyed seeing his family and baby Zoey. Bro Jeremy was a previous pastor at Maywood.

Marvin and Loretta Bringer enjoyed lunch with Joe and Judy Cunningham in Quincy on Wednesday.

The community was sorry to learn of the death of John Flynn. He and his wife Abby (Eisenberg) live north of town in in the Barr house and the Eisen-

bergs had purchased the Barr farm years ago.

The Barrâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s were a prominent family in Maywood and donated a lot of land for different uses in town and the land where South Union Baptist Church is still located today. The church was moved from east of Maywood by the cemetery to the city when it was built new.

John Jones was a visitor in the Marvin Bringer home on Thursday.

I celebrated another year this week and enjoyed dinner with Marvin, Rachel and Bobby Shepherd at the Patio for the occasion. It was great to see Dalton Shepherd home this weekend from the University of Missouri.

He had called me on my birthday and gave me a great MU present.

The news is submitted early this week due to being out of town. You can always send news to marlora@marktwain.net too.
