Editors Note: This is an excerpt from the book The Prairie Sampler, a project done by fresh-men at the old South Junior High school in Fort Dodge. This story The Interurban, was told by A.P. Butts and written by Shelly Schmieder. The story in-volves Mr. Potts coming to Fort Dodge in 1909 and beginning work for the Interurban. As I walked into the town of Fort Dodge, my eyes widened at the sight. I had lived on a farm in Indi-ana all of my life and havent even been in a big city. There were large, square white houses and smaller wood-colored ones. The town was so advanced. There were even some automobiles. I had read about them, but had only seen a few. Cars were not very common, where I came from. One whizzed past me, making my heart pound with excitement. As I reached my destination, I had so many questions in my mind about this place and its people. How many lived here? What businesses were there? The list was endless. Using the directions I had been given, I ap-proached the two-story house. It had a large front porch with a swing, a big fenced in yard. It was my grandfa-thers house. I walked slowly, then up the stairs. I was a lit-tle nervous, and I hadnt seen him since I was seven. I knocked, and heard footsteps approaching the door. It opened. Is that you, Albert? questioned his grandfa-ther surprisingly. Its me! Well, how have you been? How was the trip? My, how youve changed! Its so good to see you! Oh grandfather, the town is wonderful. Will you show me around? Sure, I will. Albert, tell me about yourself? What are you now, 19 or 20? Im 21, grandfather. But lets talk about you. How have you and grandma been? Were just fine. Are you ready for that job I needed for you for the railroad? I hope so, you start Saturday. You will be helping out as a brakeman for the next two weeks. Yes, Grandfather. It sounds very interesting and I think Ill enjoy it. Did you hear the news? Im go-ing to Washington to work at a logging camp! Doesnt that sound exciting?

Yes, but I think youll find the railroad just as exciting, was his sincere reply. Would you like to see your room? asked my grandmother lovingly. Yes, please. I would like to clean up too. I said politely. At that I went to my room. I could hardly sleep. I was so excited about seeing the town. I tossed and turned, but finally fell sound asleep. I awoke with a jerk the next morning. I had mo-mentarily forgotten where I was at. I heard grandmother preparing breakfast. I was very hungry so I got up and dressed hurriedly, my stomach growled as I walked down the stairs. I was greeted warmly with a Good Morning and a big, beautiful stack of pancakes and a pile of little sausages. I ate ravenously. I wonder what my grandpar-ents thought of me then. When we had all finished, grandfather and I went out exploring the town. He showed me everything. Fort Dodge had a newspaper office, a drug store, a saloon and many other buildings. The town square was beauti-ful. Back in 1909, there were only about 7,000 to 8,000 people in Fort Dodge, which sounded like millions to me. I had never seen so many people. There were peo-ple everywhere in the stores, walking down the streets and riding on the interurban, a local trolley. There were houses lined up in rows. I could hardly believe my eyes, as I never knew there could be so many houses all together like that.Starting as a brakemanon the Interurban As night fell, my urge was satisfied. I had seen the town. I was still anxious, for tomorrow was Saturday, the day I started working. Those two weeks went by very quickly. Work-ing as a brakeman, I was actually an assistant to my grandfather, the conductor. I ran the train as grandfather talked to the passengers, fifty on each trip, while he guid-ed me. I made 19 cents an hour. I found the railroad intriguing. I loved the feel-ing of never being in one place for very long and the speed at which we traveled seemed so fast. We could make it to Des Moines in two hours. I loved meeting all the different types of people. So at

Farmers Market Week set for August 2-8 Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey to-day encouraged Iowans to take advantage of fresh fruits and vegetables available at the more than 220 farm-ers markets in Iowa as part of National Farmers Market Week, which runs from Aug. 2 to 8. Northey also encouraged Iowans to take ad-vantage of the free Iowa Farmers Market app for smart-phones that can help Iowans locate the farmers markets in their area. The app allows users to find the farmers mar-ket closest to them by using GPS location services or to search for specific farmers markets by city or zip code. Once they have located a market, the user can view the hours of the market, browse a list of vendors and see a phone number and email address of the market manager. App users can also leave reviews of the market and vendors and upload their photos to share with others. The app is free to download and is available through Apples App store and Google Play by searching Iowa Farmers Markets.

Bridges takes up where Neibors left off. If you were using Neibors, your information has been trans-ferred and youll be very familiar with how things work. Bridges is Iowas eLibrary, where it offers eBooks and audiobooks available to download for free anytime, anywhere. Library card holders can check out and download digital media by visiting http://bridges.lib.overdrive.com. Dayton Public Library members have access to more than 16,500 eBooks and 7,500 audiobooks. Many titles offer multiple copies for checkout, and users can request to be emailed or automatically check out items when they become available.

When the collections were merged so were the holds lists. Users from both sides were included and re-sorted by date. Therefore, some people are further down the list than they were before. The good news is that there are now more copies to fill those holds so time-wise it should be about the same wait.

Accident near Frazierdam reported; BooneCounty deputy responds

A person called the Boone County Sheriffs of-fice to report a vehicle that had rolled over on the road near the Frazer Dam on July 18. Another person called and advised the male driver had gotten back into the vehicle and had left the scene. Because the caller was uncertain if there were inju-ries the Boone County ambulance was started along with Pilot Mound Fire, they were later disregarded. A deputy a short time later located the vehicle in question and stopped the vehicle for a traffic viola-tion.After a brief investigation the driver of the vehicle, Tyler Hinders, was taken into custody for investigation into possible OWI and transported to the BCJ for further testing.

Interurban...continued from front page...

the end of the two weeks, the logging camp didnt seem nearly so exciting while the railroad was. I just couldnt quit. So on that beautiful spring day under Iowas sunny blue skies, I decided to start my career on the Fort Dodge, Des Moines, and Southern Railroad. I worked for a year as a brakeman. After 14 months, in 1910, I was promoted to conductor. I had to take passengers from Fort Dodge to Des Moines and back to Fort Dodge every two hours. The fare was two cents a mile. I stopped every mile to let people on and off. The interurban itself was basically one car, but sometimes I hooked up to a parlor car. This was a fancy car for the people who wanted extra comfort and less crowded rides.

Longhorn, Scott win big at Boone County Fair dog show Lille and Lane Longhorn, along with Viatris Scott won numerous awards at the Boone County Fair in Boone. Lillie Longhorn netted the Novice A, Rally Novice B Champion and Elite Showmanship awards while Lane Longhorn earned the Pre-Novice B and Ju-nior Showmanship awards. Viatris Scott won the Sub-Novice, Rally Novice B and the Intermediate Showmanship awards. All three represented the Bluff Creek Wranglers 4-H club and reside in Pilot Mound.

Longhorn nets 16 ribbons at Boone Co. Fair horse show Lille Longhorn, Pilot Mound, and Parker Gar-cia, Paton, dominated the Boone County Fair horse show in Boone. Longhorn won ribbons in the Senior Horse Showman, Western Type Mare Over Four Years Old, Tandem Bareback Equitation, Senior Western Pleasure (57 and Over) and Senior Western Horsemanship com-petitions. Longhorn also earned the Senior Pole Bending Championship, Champion Tandem Bareback Champion-ship, Senior Champion in the Flag Race and the Senior Keyhole Championship. Parker Garcia earned 14 awards, most notably the 57 and Under Pleasure Pony Champion ribbon. Longhorn represented the Bluff Creek Wran-glers while Garcia represented the Boxholm Blazers.

Claire and Emma Whalen, as well as Lillie and Lane Longhorn represented the Bluff Creek Wranglers. Paige Garcia, Parker Garcia and Bryce Stevens repre-sented the Boxholm Blazers 4-H Club.

Band ghosts are still hoveringI have learned something about this business, the

newspaper business. Even the little guys get feed-back. It may not be as much as big guys but I dare say it is probably kinder. First of all, it is good to know you do have some readership. One wonders if you are just preaching to the choir and then you hear from someone you hadnt expected.

I have written several times about the bands and musicians around the Boxholm area, especially the town band. Our knowledgeable local historian, David Peterson, contacts me sometimes to offer information on something I had wondered about or maybe even had a bit incorrect. I am always grateful for that information. Many times it confirms my memory and offers additional facts or clarification.

I had mentioned the only bandstand I remember is the one that was to the west of Linds Hardware where Jack Condon built his brick building for his meat market on the first floor and living quarters on the second. I was so glad to get the information David sent on the town band. In a copy of a newspaper clipping it reported The Boxholm Concert Band will broadcast next Wednesday evening June 24 (1936) at 8:00 P.M. This broadcast is one of a series in a contest in which 19 bands will com-pete for $1,000 in cash prizes. The broadcasts are heard regularly over KRNT on Wednesday and Saturday eve-nings. I dont know if they won a prize or not.

David sent a picture of the band, 25 of them on the bandstand and a couple fellows setting up equipment to broadcast the concert. All band members were dressed in white trousers, white shirts with ties and the majority had on dark suit jackets and all were wearing white, dark billed band hats. Couldnt tell from picture if there were any girls in the band. I did notice there was a mello-phone player and that instrument (my horn) was unusual to the horn section and today it would be hard to find anyone who knows exactly what it is. I dont even know if they are manufactured anymore. I recall someone in Lawrence Welks band occasionally playing one The article advised the director was Floyd Erickson and the manager was L. M. Mattson. Had each member in the picture been named I probably would have recognized at least the name. I did know Mr. Erickson. He was still the band director when I first was in the town band. I also remember Lyle Mattson as he was a great snare drum player. Back then you didnt have a drummer with a full set. Each percussion instrument was played by a dif-ferent individual, especially snare drum, bass drum and cymbals. The cymbal player often sat out whole songs as there was no part of the song for them. I remember Lyle Mattson also as a painter. He painted the big farm house where we first lived and during his time there learned my real middle name is Josephine so he would sing, Come Josephine in My Flying Machine when I appeared in his view. He always hummed or whistled while he worked. He was still drumming when I joined the band. The ar-ticle ended, The added interest of a broadcast directly from Boxholm will likely draw a much larger crowd than usually attend the weekly concerts.

David also sent me another clipping copy which he dated July 23, 1936. There was a good picture of Floyd Erickson director of the Boxholm band which will play at Ogden this coming Saturday. It said they would play at the State Bank corner in connection with the Cash Prize Distribution at Ogden the next Saturday evening. What I found interesting and it was typical of Iowa rural farm areas, Due to the fact that some of the band mem-bers are busy in the harvest fields at this time the concert will start a little later than usual at 8:45 p.m. I remember those days when working Saturday nights at Lundvalls store. --- The band which is composed of talent living in an around Boxholm is well known to the people in this section of the state, having only recently played over Sta-tion KRNT.

I hope there are still a few around who remember

a town band. How many beside me remember Mr Erick-son? Is there anyone still perking who remembers, as do I, playing in that band stand? Thanks Dave for an-swering some of my questions, jogging my memory and practically writing this column.

I will be writing another including information I received from both Dave and another Boxholm graduate. Til then, happy memories.

Forty Iowa youth are beginning their new terms as State 4-H Council members. They were inducted dur-ing the closing ceremonies of the 2015 Iowa 4-H Youth Conference on July 2. These young leaders will serve as ambassadors for the 4-H Youth Development program throughout the state and in their local counties, said Brenda Allen, 4-H youth program specialist with Iowa State University Ex-tension and Outreach. To be considered for the State 4-H Council, each 4-Her submitted an application and participated in intensive interviews. Youth were then selected based on their leader-ship and communication skills, as well as their potential to contribute to the large group. The members gain leadership and communi-cation skills, both through training opportunities as well as through their responsibilities as committee chairs and representatives of the council at county and statewide events, said Allen. One of the biggest responsibilities of the council is to organize and implement the annual Iowa 4-H Youth Conference. Council members also volunteer at the Iowa State Fair and other statewide 4-H events and visit coun-ties to share information to youth regarding opportunities that go beyond county lines. Another responsibility is to coordinate, promote and oversee the 4-Hers for 4-H fundraising campaign.

The State 4-H Council strengthens the 4-H Youth Development program because they are able to connect and share with their peers some of the exciting programs, experiences and information relevant to to-days teens, said Allen. They also provide feedback to the state 4-H office so we get a real perspective from current 4-Hers when implementing programming and making plans for the future. Council members attend multiple retreats throughout the year that focus on developing leadership, citizenship and communication and personal life skills, while also providing opportunities to work as a team and to make friends. State 4-H Council has been a great way to con-nect with other 4-Hers from all across the state, said Hannah Peterson, State 4-H Council member from Web-ster County. I have gained many leadership and com-munication skills by being on council. This will be Pe-tersons second year as a State 4-H Council member. My goals for the year ahead would definitely be to inspire and inform the youth around me, said Mal-lory Hammitt, State 4-H Council member from Webster County. I am positive that I will reach new heights in my leadership, communication and team building skills as a part of the new 2015-2016 State 4-H Council. This will be Hammitts second year as a State 4-H Council member. The State 4-H Council members represent all parts of Iowa. They work to give back to their commu-nities and help 4-H Youth Development best serve the youth of Iowa.

State 4-H Council members from central Iowa from left to right are Jessica Bigelow, Polk County; Hannah Mc-Coy, Warren County; Mallory Hammitt, Webster County and a student at Eagle Grove High School; John-Paul Chaisson-Cardenas, 4-H Youth Development program leader; Hannah Peterson, Webster County and a student from SE Valley; Ally Babcock, Story County; Emily Zahurones, Jasper County and Madeleine Bretey, Boone County.

Tenderhearted tough guys and Chippy... I was all set to write this weeks column about an incident that happened yesterday when I was cleaning lettuce from the garden and came across a lovely green caterpillar. The creature wriggled in the sink, stretching upward, trying to find a foothold for its escape. I called my sons attention to Greenie, and he plucked the critter from the sink and headed toward the back door to put the little guy outside. Dont put him anywhere near the lettuce, I said. I was all set to write about a day earlier this sum-mer when my husband and I found two baby squirrels dead in the middle of the road near our driveway and he got a shovel and dug a hole and we buried them in our backyard. I was all set to write about caterpillars and squir-rels and a few more of my familys critter-related habits when our cat let out a low, guttural meow in the dining room. Instinctively, I got up and stood on my chair. When my son (in the family room) bolted from the couch toward the cat and exclaimed, Oh my goodness! I knew my initial analysis of the situation had been correct. We had a crisis on our hands. When my cat lets out a deep, raspy meow, its be-cause he is announcing, with pride, that hes brought home a trophy. After years of cat ownership (or more correctly, being owned by cats) Ive learned a cats trophy is often alive. Hence my perch on the chair. Its a chipmunk! My son announced. And its alive! A chipmunk in the dining room. Things could have been worse. Once it was a snake. A live chipmunk meant one thing. I jumped down from the chair knowing we were now in rescue mode. I grabbed the cat and ran upstairs to put him in the bedroom while my son stood guard over the chipmunk. With the cat safely out of the way, I returned to the scene of the crime. Chippy (we gave him a nickname) sat rigid un-der the table, undoubtedly scared out of his little chipmunk mind. Our plight was further complicated by the piano an old and heavy upright also in the dining room. If Chippy ran under it, we were in trouble. It was clear we needed reinforcements. I went to get a big brother. The two boys and I surrounded the table, assess-

ing our options. One son stood in front of the piano, block-ing access. The other held a plastic cake cover. In one deft movement the cake cover became a chipmunk cover. We had the little guy secured. Next we slid a large book under the cake cover to create a floor for Chippy and we carried him out to the backyard. Run free, little Chippy. Run free. After a moments hesitation, he did. And we re-turned to the house. Back to the everyday routine of nor-malcy that makes up our lives. We let the cat out of the bedroom and he is strut-ting around like a 14-year old declawed chipmunk stalker who still considers himself boss of the neighborhood. His tail is riding high. He is confined to the house for a while, to give Chippy a chance to recoup and recover, but the cat doesnt much care. He knows how awesomely great he is. Some days I think I live with too many rough and rowdy guys and Im not referring to the cat. Today wasnt one of them. Today we saved a chipmunks life. In the scheme of things thats something. At least around here it is. Jill Pertler is an award-winning syndicated col-umnist, published playwright and author. Dont miss a slice; follow the Slices of Life page on Facebook.

Dont Forget the Little Things

We, in our busyness, tend to forget about the smaller things in life. You are probably wondering what I mean when I say smaller things. Well, here a just a few examples. How many times have we been going to compliment someone on doing a good job or planning a good program that is uplifting and makes us think about our faith? We think about complimenting the person re-sponsible, but time seems to get away from us and we dont do it? How many friends have we left waiting for a kind word from us and we fail to give it to them? Then there are the little things we intend to do for our Lord such as serving on a committee in church or teaching a class for the Sunday School superintendent? Of course, then there are the little negative things we do such as responding to a remark with cut-ting words word that hurt rather than words that help. Or we say negative thoughts about someone just because we may be jealous of them? Yes, the little things in life can make a difference in someone elses life. Let us do the good ones and eliminate the negative ones. We will feel better and God willhappy with us and with our actions. Why not start to-day???

Two summers ago, Barbara and I visited the Harry S. Truman Library in Independence, Missouri. Its also the place where President Lyndon B. Johnson chose to sign Medicare into law 50 years ago on July 30, 1965. It was a signature moment in our nations history that to-day calls for solutions to help strengthen Medicare for generations yet to come. At that time in our nations history, nearly half of older Americans had no health insurance. In the last five decades, Medicare has provided tens of millions of Americans and individuals with disabilities access to health care. It has arguably contributed to increased life expectancy, improved the quality of life for aging Ameri-cans and secured peace of mind for people worried about medical expenses in retirement. As the baby boom popu-lation reaches Medicare eligibility, the programs already broad impact on the nations health care delivery system and the taxpaying public will become even more signifi-cant. Medicare flexes enormous influence in local economies and shapes how medicine is delivered and paid for by older Americans and people with permanent disabilities. Throughout its first 40 years, Medicare es-tablished itself as the primary insurer for hospital cover-age (Part A) and physician coverage (Part B) for older Americans. As then-chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, I shepherded through Congress the most significant reform to Medicare since its enactment. This bipartisan, bicameral effort helped secure the first-ever voluntary prescription drug benefit through Medicare (Part D). Since 2006, Medicare recipients may obtain pharmaceutical coverage through this program. Today Medicare serves nearly 54 million Amer-icans. An entitlement program that administers health care insurance for that many people has its share of chal-lenges. For starters, its burdened by the infamous com-plexity and unaccountability that afflicts so many gov-ernment-run programs. Keeping intact the fiscal integrity of the program will become even more important to help ensure the sustainability of the program for our children and grandchildren. Thats why I work to strengthen whis-tleblower protections laws that have proven instrumental to expose wrongdoing. And I keep close tabs on federal agencies tasked with rooting out health care fraud so that Medicare dollars are spent as intended. The 114th Congress took decisive bipartisan steps earlier this year to fix a flaw that contributed to huge uncertainty for patients and doctors for the last 17 years. The Medicare Access and Chip Reauthorization Act improved the reimbursement formula that adversely

affected health care providers serving Medicare patients. Medicare doesnt do a whole lot of good if a sick patient doesnt have a doctor or health care provider to visit. Looking ahead, Medicare needs to strengthen its ability to secure access to affordable care. Federal law-makers must ask probing questions that demand fiscal accountability. I have worked to secure stronger trans-parency laws that give policymakers and the public the opportunity to check out Medicare payment data to make sure Medicare dollars arent squandered. Medicare spending consumes nearly 14 per-cent of the federal budget, accounting for about a fifth of the health care spending in the United States. In Iowa, it leaves a big footprint across the network of hospitals and health care providers that serves 531,209 Iowans and spends $4.3 billion per year in the state. And yet, a number of U.S. hospitals struggle to keep their doors open, especially those serving people who live and work in rural America. This summer I introduced the Rural Emergency Acute Care Hospital Act (REACH) to address a rising concern that acute health care services in rural areas are at risk. Supporters of the Affordable Care Act lamented the coverage gap between the insured and the uninsured in America. Notably, since passage of the Affordable Care Act, 55 rural hospitals have closed. Theres arguably a growing divide between ru-ral providers and those whose revenues are stocked with a healthier payment stream divided among private payers, government payers and self-payers. As an outspoken champion for rural health care, I have long worked to help make sure Medicare supports the financial viability of rural providers. Americans liv-ing in rural areas deserve timely access to health care services. The REACH Act would create new flexibil-ity and change the Medicare payment structure so that reimbursements for rural emergency health care services arent tied to inpatient volume. Basically, it would give a boost to freestanding 24-hour emergency medical care departments in our rural communities to help keep life-saving medical facilities open for business, around-the-clock, close to home. Individual states would apply for certification to participate. It also would add incentives to encourage emergency medical professionals to practice in rural areas. Medicare has made its mark in America these last 50 years. Making sure Medicare continues working to keep health care services open in rural communities is a signature issue that I will continue to endorse for my home state of Iowa.

I, Tyler Anderson, am a fan of pro wrestling Hey friends. Tyler here with a confession to make for you all this week. Since 2006, I have been a big fan of professional wrestling. Technically, I have been a fan before then, being a part of the Hulkamania tide wave. Then, I tuned into the Monday Night Wars of the 1990s between World Cham-pionship Wrestling and World Wrestling Entertainment on a near-religious basis. As any fan would tell you, those days were deeply missed. For me, I have gotten into the acceptance stage of the 12 Steps of Separation. Compared to any other average fan, I am just a further down the rabbit hole. I have many friends in the professional wrestling business, and it was due to the independent wrestling circuit that I have met the many people that I have met. Its my kind of crowd whenever I go to a show, and its a blessing. My real brush with the business was during my extended stay in Amarillo, Texas. The promotion that I frequented was the West Texas Wrestling Association, based in this old warehouse (dubbed The Warehouse of all things) in the center of the city. It was a dark and cramped venue located in the not so great part of town. But it was my Saturday night, and sometimes Friday night, hang out. It was where I felt content and complete. I came to know Rick Elsey, the match-maker (since we all know that its predetermined, not fake) of WWA and present match-maker for Squared Circle Pro in Lubbock. It was funny that in all places, I met him at a lo-cal Walmart and addressed him with the utmost respect and admiration. Rick quickly became one of my best friends. Along with Rick, more pro wrestling friends came along the way. It was in the waning days of WWA and the few days of Amarillo Elite Wrestling that I became close with the ladies and gentlemen that came out from behind the curtain. It even let me venture all the way out to Phila-delpha where the man Im about to mention got onto a big-time independent promotions bigger shows of the year. Their personas ranged from killer clowns and

luchadors to strong men and fitness junkies. Believe it or not, I trained to be a pro wrestler during that time. My trainer was Rexx Reed (yes, his name is with two Xs) and he was a bald, bearded, heavy set indi-vidual with amazing speed and agility. It was with him that I learned to how hit and pull moves on people without seriously hurting them, how to take a bump (where you fall back onto the mat) and put together a match. It was a rush of adrenaline and pain. It was a dance to make people believe that I can stand a chance against men twice my size and where men smaller than myself can stand a chance against me. By the time I was to start honing my craft at shows in front of live crowds instead of just practicing, I had a persona with a group of fellow Iowans. Those gentlemen, along with my other best friend, became group called the League of Liger. What was cool about the League of Liger was the sweet black and white t-shirts I personally bought. Of course, that stemmed from my nickname, Tyler Liger. Remember a few months back where Tyler Liger was listed instead of Tyler Anderson in the Dayton Review? Thats my alias. Unfortunately, circumstances happened and my pipe dream of being the next John Cena, Seth Rollins or Stone Cold Steve Austin fell apart. All because of forces outside of my control. Thats fine by me. My friends in Amarillo and Iowa are still around and doing well. Im happy to return to the crowd, where I have intimate knowledge of what the wrestlers are doing dur-ing their performance. However, its not a secret (its not such a secret anymore, due to internet fans) that Im will-ing to share openly. However, I can promise you something. I want to eventually bring 3XW, a wrestling outfit based in Des Moines, to the area in the near future. The details are something I have keep secret for now, but I want to share my passion for this to my friends and neighbors. If you havent been to a wrestling show before, youre missing out. Its a joyride.
