Elkton-Lake Benton High School seniorDesire Routier of Lake Benton, Minn., is among many sheep enthusiasts taking a second look at the Targhee breed.

I’ve always admitted that I would neverhave made it in pioneer life.

That notion came to me again as I sat inthe frigid stands of an October high schoolfootball game. Oh sure, I had driven to thefootball field with my pickup’s heater blast-ing and the heated leather seat warming mytush.

But there I was sitting on the aluminumbleachers, bundled up, as my extremitieswere becoming alumi-numb.

Sure, I would be climbing back into myheat-blasting pickup, to head home to mywarm house, possibly a warm drink and awarm bed, But, darn it, those two-plushours at the game were darn cold.

Pioneeers had cook stoves and fireplaces to warmtheir homes after working out in the elements all dayand into the night, but fires would die down and mostof those homes were drafty.

Today’s farm field work can be done in the comfort ofa cab, but not all cabs are created equal. Some canmake field work pretty comfy, while others are mereshells. Even those shells are major improvements from

the days of horse and buggy, tractors with-out cabs or even the “heat-houser.”

I remember my Dad telling how happy hewas when he could look across the field andsee his dad sitting on a tractor in the fall,protected by the heat-houser, a mere wind-break on three sides of grandpa.

It wasn’t much, but it was better thannothing at all.

Our society, and me right along with therest of it, has become quite spoiled, andskewed in our thinking.

As spring arrives, we see people pullingtheir shorts on when the temps finally

crawl back into the 50s, yet in the fall wecrank the furnace on the first time summer temps fallto the same level.

Yes, we have become spoiled, and I admit I like it thatway. I appreciate what the pioneers and my grandpar-ents had to endure so that we could enjoy the spoiledlife of 21st century America.

Pioneer life, not for me

Late in the afternoon of Oct. 11, on the eve of theopening of pheasant hunting seasons in Minnesota andseveral other states, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Serviceannounced that it was immediately re-opening federalWaterfowl Production Areas to outdoor activities.

It was welcome news to hunters and a refreshingillustration of how common sense sometimes pre-vails, even when up against the inexorable momen-tum of government bureaucracy.

In the unlikely event you were unaware, a partialgovernment shutdown after Congress was unable toreach an agreement on the budget resulted in theclosure of all kinds of federal entities from nationalmonuments to national parks.

Aging World War II veterans who traveled on honorflights to Washington, D.C., were turned away fromviewing the WWII Memorial. Even the massive andexpansive Grand Canyon was declared by the federalgovernment to be closed.

And the USFWS had announced that because ofreduced staffing levels resulting from the shutdown,national wildlife refuges along with federally man-aged WPAs — small tracts of wildlife habitat foundmainly in the Upper Midwest — would be closed to

public activity, as well.In this, October when many fall hunting seasons

are open, it couldn’t have come at a worst possibletime.

Understand that if it wasn’t for hunters, theNational Wildlife Refuge System that encompassessome 150 million acres likely would be far smaller ormight not exist at all.

In Minnesota, there are about a half-million acresof federal wildlife lands, including some 200,000acres of WPAs, scattered throughout the state, mostof them open to public outdoor recreation.

Virtually all of it has been funded by hunters.The lion’s share of the $15 that hunters pay annu-

ally for their federal duck stamp is expressly ear-marked for the acquisition of wildlife habitat tobecome part of the national wildlife refuge system orWPAs.

And every time a hunter buys a gun, ammo, binoc-ulars or other outdoor gear, a federal excise tax islevied, once again targeted for the acquisition andmanagement of such places.

Commentary: Even in the great outdoors, it’s politics as usual

From the baking butbreezy rest stop in the mid-dle of California’s MojaveDesert, Interstate 15 disap-pears into the low moun-tains southwest towardLos Angeles and northeasttoward Las Vegas. Thedesert is huge, brown anddesolate. The highway isflat, gray and jammed withcars roaring both direc-tions at 70 miles an hour.

It’s the second surprisein two days for the lovelyCatherine and me on aweek-long drive throughCalifornia’s Central Valley,

Sonoma wine country and San Francisco.The first was Las Vegas, our starting point the day

before. The former Sinatra-cool oasis is a spring breakfrat party today, booze-powered, loud and wobbly.

Now, a hoped-for restorative Sunday drivethrough a peaceful, quiet desert has become aChicago bumper-fest. We hang a right at Barstowand head to Bakersfield across the high desert. Nomore Ferraris, no more LA-bound Las Vegas losers,no more white-knuckle driving.

A couple of hours later we’re the Joads in “The Grapesof Wrath” as we coast downhill from the endlessly browndesert to the green, cool Central Valley.The contrast couldnot be more stark and Bakersfield — bigger than eitherNew Orleans or Pittsburgh — couldn’t be quieter. It’s afarm town on a Sunday afternoon.

Catherine consults the internet for dinner sugges-tions and uncovers a Basque boarding house supper, aholdover from when the legendary Spanish andFrench shepherds tended California’s massive sheepherds. The meal — soup, salad, salsa, beef stew, friedchicken, crème brulee — is hearty, heaping and good.

So is the seating. To encourage conversation, morethan 40 of us sit on either side of one, long table.After I tell my mealtime mates that Catherine and Iare touring central California for the first time, sitesuggestions flow like iced tea. Some confirm thestate’s unmatched natural beauty (yes, we will begoing to Sequoia National Park tomorrow) whileanother hints of its natural fragility.

Me: How deep are the irrigation wells wateringthe orange groves and grapes we saw as we droveinto Bakersfield?

Neighbor across the table: “Some are 12,000 feetdeep.”

Me: Whoa, just how prehistoric is that prehistoricwater?

Neighbor: “Doesn’t matter.”Me: In 40 years it will matter to your grandchildren.Neighbor: “Oh, we’ll be dead in 40 years so it won’t

matter at all.”The we’re-dead, they’re-dry comment hitches a

ride with us as we tour Sequoia, spend a night nearFresno, then drive west across the vegetable-

packed, dusty Valley to SantaCruz, Pebble Beach and BigSur. It’s an indictment ofAmerica’s consumer culture —use everything now becausetomorrow, well, tomorrow issomebody else’s problem.

But it’s something more, too.If demographic California

now looks like what expertssay America will resemble in a

generation or two — multi-cultural, multi-lingual, morecrowded — then California’s

agriculture may soon beAmerica’s farming past.

The reason becomes clearer with every mile youtravel in this beautiful, incredibly productive valley:It’s very hard to see any future to any food systemthat devours so many intensively concentrated

resources — water, fuel, artificial fertilizer, chemicals— so America can eat strawberries in February.

A few days later, a young environmental engineer inBerkeley disagrees when I offer that thesis. “Califor-nia’s agriculture is too efficient to ever change,” he says.

Now I disagree. You’re confusing efficiency with pro-duction, I say. California is highly productive, no argu-ment. But it is inefficient and without water it’s neither.

A couple of days in the hilly Russian River wine coun-try (the pinot, please), two touristy days and nights inSan Francisco (wow, Cath, did you see those tattoos?)then it’s back to the airport and, soon enough, the flat-land and straight-road reality of central Illinois.

But the memories linger. Are they real? Only ifCalifornia is real, and it is.

For a while, anyway.Alan Guebert’s “Farm and Food File” is published

California agriculture productive, but inefficient

WPA, from pg. 2APrivate conservation

organizations — DucksUnlimited, PheasantsForever, the MinnesotaDeer Hunters Associa-tion, among them —have turned over hun-dreds of thousands ofhard-earned dollars togovernment entities forthe express purpose ofland acquisition for pub-lic recreation.

Locally, for the last 26years, through dint ofhard work and dedicatedmembership, the BlueEarth County Chapter ofPheasants Inc., has man-aged to raise about

$800,000, mostly used to purchase some 1,300 acresof land, some to become federal WPAs managed bythe U.S Fish and Wildlife Service.

All of this land bought and paid for by hunters wasdeclared off-limits because of the shutdown.

Claims by the USFW of staffing concerns rang hol-low, to be sure.

After all, while staffing might be necessary inareas with some sort of infrastructure — refugeheadquarters buildings, for instance — most WPAacres are comprised only of grasslands, wetlandsand woods — just wild and wide-open spaces.

What’s more, even when the federal government isoperating at full strength, encountering a badge-wearing federal agent while hunting on federallands, especially on WPAs, is an exceedingly rareevent.

Hunters on federal lands are far more likely to

encounter state conservation officers enforcing bothstate and federal regulations, instead.

A cynic might suggest that the real reason for thewholesale shutdown of the federal lands was based onpolitics, pure and simple, to make a point by inflictingdisruption and inconvenience on taxpayers.

One can argue the relative merits of both sides ofthe political issue but really, there’s plenty of blameto place on both sides for creating this mess in thefirst place.

While average citizens like to believe they have asay in what happens in the rarified air of the Capi-tol, ultimately, it’s power, money and influencewithin the D.C. elite calling the shots.

Undoubtedly, if the government shutdown continued,some hunters were going to thumb their noses at thefederal government and venture into the WPAs torecreate, possibly risking tickets for trespassing.

In the narrowest view, we can be grateful that ameasure of commonsense prevailed and theareas, bought and paidfor with hunters’ dollars,once again are acessible.

But viewing the bigpicture, it’s pretty clearthat we continue to beplagued by a federalmorass of ineffective gov-ernance and sorrystatesmanship.

By KRISTIN KVENOThe Land CorrespondentThe BrandtsAda, Minn.

The one and a halfinches of rain that hitDanny Brandt’s farm“put a screeching haltto beet harvest,”Brandt said. He’s con-fident, however, thatit will only take oneday for conditions to improve toresume.

The Land spoke to Brandt on Oct. 16as he was giving the sugar beet trucksa checkup so they’d be ready to go thenext day. As for the beet harvest,“sugar content isn’t as high as we’dhoped it to be,” he said.

A nice part of beet harvest forBrandt is the opening of Highway 9 tothe beet piler. That part of Highway 9is only open to beet trucks as road con-struction isn’t finished on that stretchyet. “That’s been nice,” Brandt said. “Itold my crew to be very cautious on thework zone.”

His crew is seven guys — all veteranbeet haulers for Brandt. He estimatesthat they should be completing beetharvest in the next four to five days,then moving on to corn.

Brandt has taken a sample of cornoff the field and has seen moistureranging from 16.5 to 25 percent andyields from zero to 175 bushels peracre. “Once we get done with beetswe’ll hit the corn pretty hard,” Brandtsaid. He is “pretty happy with the cornthus far,” but expects “yields to bedown quite a bit from last year.” Thecorn harvest should take him around10 days to complete.

The end of harvest is in sight forBrandt. With weather cooperating forthe most part, and the machinerydoing the same, harvest has beenuneventful. An uneventful harvest ismusic to any farmer’s ears.The JohnsonsStarbuck, Minn.

The rain was com-ing down as The Landspoke to Scott John-son on Oct. 15. Withmore than two inchesof rain in the gauge,harvest was tem-porarily on hold. Itwould of “been nice tohave this (rain) thissummer,” he said.

The soybean harvest is basicallycompleted for Johnson. The cropturned out as good as he thought itwould, given that “didn’t have thehighest expectations.”

The corn harvest is in full swing, andhe hopes that in “three weeks, we’ll befinished.” The corn that he harvestedfirst was hit by hail during a summerstorm that brought havoc to many ofhis fields. Yields are “not good as ofyet,” Johnson said. Moisture contentfrom fields with hail damage was at 19to 22 percent.

“We’ve been doing a little fall tillageas we go along here,” Johnson said. Hewas hoping that the fields would bedry enough by Oct. 16 to get back inthe field to harvest some corn. “As soon

as you start you can’t wait to get fin-ished,” he said.

The end is in sight, Johnson said, aslong as there’s “no white stuff on theground.”The MessnersNorthfield, Minn.

The 2013 soybeanharvest is in the booksfor Chris Messner —he finished combiningbeans on Oct. 14.

When The Landspoke to him a daylater, he said harvest “went OK.” Mess-ner said beans averaged 46 to 47bushels per acre; better than he antici-pated. It ended up being an averagecrop for Messner. He’s relieved to bedone with beans as they are more tem-peramental than corn in terms of hav-ing harvest conditions be close to per-fect. There’s “a lot of potentialproblems,” he said. Those harvestproblems, thankfully, never appearedthis year for him.

Messner harvested 12 acres of cornto make sure the equipment was work-ing properly, getting moisture readings

of 20 to 25 percent. He figured thisyear’s corn crop will be average. Hesaid he would like to begin taking therest of the corn out on Oct. 16 if condi-tions are right. With the corn harvesttaking around three weeks to com-plete, Messner hopes to be done by thefirst week of November. Then comesfall tillage.

This is the time of year he looks for-ward to — “As a farmer, fall is kind ofthe highlight of the year.”The LaubenthalsSwea City, Iowa

Charlie Lauben-thal is half done withcorn harvest and thecrop is “better thanexpected.” Moistureis running at 16 per-cent with yieldsaround 220 bushelsper acre. When The Land spoke toLaubenthal on Oct. 15, he said thatthe harvest had been “trouble-free sofar.”

He is “hoping by the end of the weekwe’ll take our beans out.” The weatherfor harvest has been “favorable.” Ifthose conditions continue, Lauben-thal said they’d finish the beans andthen resume corn harvest by nextweek. He plans on being done by theend of the month. Once harvest isdone, Lauebenthal will start falltillage and applying fertilizer andanhydrous ammonia.

“I like this season, I always likefall,” he said. “I always like gettingthe crop out; it’s a good feeling oncethe crop is in the bin.”

Laubenthal knows his cropscould’ve fared much worse than itended up, given how things started inthe spring. This year’s crops are “not atotal crop failure by any means,” hesaid.

With the rocky start of this year’splanting season, and some great har-vest conditions to wrap things up,Laubenthal’s crops have truly seen itall in 2013. ❖

Desire Routier of Lake Benton, Minn., is just get-ting started raising Targhee sheep and she isalready enthusiastic about the breed.

Her enthusiasm was boosted even more from herattendance at the U.S. Targhee Sheep Associationnational show in Arlington, Wis., this past July. Atthe show her February ram lamb got second in hisclass, and her yearling ram sold for $400.

Routier is a senior this year at Elkton-Lake BentonHigh School. Her introduction to sheep came as a 4-Hproject when she got some Hampshires to show.

“I wanted another breed for variation,” Routier said,“and I read in a 4-H newsletter that the U.S. TargheeSheep Association had a starter flock program.”

Her internet research told her Targhee is a hardybreed developed in the West for their wool but alsogood for meat, so she applied and was awarded astarter flock — three ewes contributed by breedersin South Dakota and Wyoming. Robert Padula ofMontevideo, Minn., loaned her a ram, and she wason her way. Routier said the Targhees are not asdemanding as the Hampshires.

“I’ve never really had any lambing problems,” shesaid. “They’re pretty easy to keep feed-wise, andthey’re usually really good mothers.”

Padula was happy to support Routier’s enthusi-asm with the loan of a ram to help start her flock,just as others had helped him when he was a youngperson starting with sheep. His years of experience

support what she is already finding out.

“I think the Targhee breed is the best kept secret in theU.S. sheep industry,” Padula wrote in an e-mail interview.

Padula, 49, worked a number of years for theAmerican Sheep Industry Association in theirnational wool improvement program, and once backin Minnesota was a regional livestock specialist forthe Extension Service for a while. He now raisesboth Targhee and Merino sheep.

Like Routier, 4-H was where he first saw Targhee

sheep and he wasn’t “overly impressed.” He was show-ing a more common white-faced breed and show ringappeal was important. But when he went to the Uni-versity of Minnesota, there were some Targhee sheep,as well as professors who helped him realize there wasmore to sheep than showing and winning blue ribbons.

“That message was further instilled in me in grad-uate school in Montana, where I met and workedwith many of the top Targhee sheep producers in thestate,” he said.

TARGHEE, from pg. 8AHis family has raised sheep since 1972. After he

got his masters degree in animal science in 1990, thefamily changed over to Targhee sheep. They couldfeed four ewes with the same feed resources as threebigger white-face sheep, the wool was worth at leasttwo times as much and instead of a 135-percentlamb crop they got a 175-percent lamb crop.

“It was a matter of economics,” Padula said.In addition to that, he liked how progressive the

Targhee producers were.“Many of the Targhee producers I worked with in

Montana were involved in the National SheepImprovement Program using performance data toevaluate their sheep,” he said. “I enrolled our sheepin NSIP in 1990 when my family bought our firstTarghee sheep and have kept up with it ever since.”

While many have given up on wool, he still viewswool as an important product and income generatorin his sheep operation.

“I’ve been a wool advocate for 30 years,” Padula said.But he doesn’t see Targhee strictly as a wool breed.

He calls them “a maternal dual-purpose breed thathas higher-valued wool.”

“The Targhee breed has been selected for mother-ing ability over the years,” he said. “It is a breed thatshould be used as a ewe flock base, and then cross itwith terminal sire lines for market lambs.”

Padula also considers Targhee rams as a goodchoice for other producers.

“After a while, commercial flocks hit a productivity

plateau and it would make sense for producers to thinkabout using a Targhee ram on their own ewes to gener-ate replacement females that have better quality andhigher-value wool,” he said. “Fortunately, the Targheebreed has a history of being a performance-basedsheep, not strictly ornamental for the show ring, andcommercial producers can buy rams with performancedata to help them make sound selection decisions.”

It is Association members who, like Padula, areconvinced of the breed’s worth that help young peo-ple through the starter flock program.

Mardy Dallas-Rutledge, secretary of the U.S.Targhee Sheep Association, wrote in response to ane-mail inquiry that “the starter flock program wascreated five years ago in an effort to get youth moreinvolved in agriculture and Targhees.”

She said that through the application process, everyJune a youth is selected to receive a starter flock ofthree purebred, registered Targhee ewes donated byAssociation members.They also receive “a credit at theNational Show and Sale from the Association, pluscash donations, to go toward the purchase of anotheranimal.” A mentor is assigned to help educate them.

Routier was one of the early beneficiaries of that pro-gram, and she is enjoying getting her Targhee flockgoing, and convinced of the value of Targhee sheep.

“I plan on keeping sheep for as long as I can,” shesaid. “I love them, they’re so much fun.”

Whether you raise sheep because you like themand make a little money in the process, as Routiercurrently does, or whether they are a serious farm-ing enterprise, as they are for Padula, there are atleast two Minnesotans who think the Targhee breeddeserves your consideration.

Padula can be reached at [email protected] U.S. Targhee Sheep Association website iswww.ustargheesheep.org. ❖

Eldon Westhausen and Renee LeFever have oldmachinery sitting around, and their herd of 22 Kikogoats climb all over it. The bucks seem to want abetter view, the does climb to eat leaves from treebranches, and the kids just have climbing in theirblood.

This is their first crop of kids.“We had five nannies that we bred last year, and

every one of them had twins,” LeFever said.“They’re very attentive mothers,” Westhausen

said. “Really no work when they are kidding. Wejust go out and watch them, we don’t have anythingto do.”

They also like Kiko because they are a hardybreed, low maintenance and highly resistant toworm infestation.

They’ve had the Kikos for only a year, but theseare not the first goats the couple has had. They metalmost 10 years ago when LeFever bought anacreage up the road to have a place for her horsesand stopped to purchase guineas from Westhausen.That business transaction led to friendship andmarriage.

Westhausen owned a couple of Boer goats and atLeFever’s suggestion they expanded the herd.

LeFever had brought her bachelor’s degree in animalscience and business management from the Univer-sity of California at Davis to Minnesota to work forthe U.S. Department of Agriculture. When she got ajob in Veterinary Services that had her traveling,they sold the Boer goats.

Now that LeFever’s work at the Natural Resourcesand Conservation Services office in St. Paul allowsmore time at home, they decided to buy goats againto help keep down the weeds. They had heard ofKikos and after researching the breed, purchasedthree-quarter blood Kiko does in northern Iowa thatwere registered with the American Kiko Goat Associ-ation and a full-blooded buck from Red Wing, Minn.,also registered with the AKGA.

Then they went to a sale in Cape Girardeau, Mo.“We were a little surprised by how much they cost,

but we bought one female, and she’s our best one,”LeFever said.

Now that they were getting serious about the Kikobreed, they attended a sale in Indiana, where theylearned of another registry at the National KikoGoat Registry.

All of their goats are registered with the AKGA.They said that according to that registry, as long asyou use a registered Kiko buck on any kind of nanny,

KIKO, from pg. 12Ayou can register the half-breed and breed up. Theirkids that were born in May from their three-quar-ters Kiko does are seven-eighths Kiko, so the kidsfrom this latest generation will be designated aspurebred Kiko goats.

While the breed itself is fairly expensive, a majorcost of building their herd has been the travelexpense to sales, since the breed is still fairly rare inthis part of the country while it is quite popular inthe southern tier of the country, Westhausen said.

According to the University of Oklahoma’s live-stock breeds website, the Kiko was developed in NewZealand as a meat goat by crossing hardy feral doeswith Anglo-Nubian, Toggenburg and Saanen bucks.After four generations of cross-breeding there was“dramatic improvement” in meat and milk produc-tion. The Kiko breed was established and closed tofurther cross-breeding in 1986. The first Kikosarrived in the United States in 1990.

The Boer is a more popular meat goat around here,and Westhausen thinks that is partly because it hasa larger, meatier looking body. However, pound forpound, the Kiko produces as much or more meat,according to a seminar they attended.

“But it was a Kiko seminar,” he cautioned. “It’s themarketplace that will tell.”

Since both are good meat goats, there has to bemore behind the popularity of the Boer and the rela-tively obscure Kiko than looks.

Terry Hankins, who has raised both Boer and Kikogoats but now concentrates on Kikos on his EgyptCreek Ranch in Mississippi, and who publishes GoatRancher magazine, spoke to the issue of Boer versus

Kiko popularity. In an article from the May 2004issue posted on the internet, he points out that whileboth were introduced into the United States in the1990s, the Boer was an established breed, was intro-duced in greater numbers, had international associa-tions to offer support, and was promoted by a singleorganization, the American Boer Goat Association.

On the other hand, he writes, the Kiko was a rela-tively new breed, has no association outside of theUnited States to offer support, was introduced insmaller numbers primarily by speculators who havesince left the field, and does not speak with a unitedvoice. (In addition to the two associations with sepa-rate registries, the AKGA and the InternationalKiko Goat Association, there is a third private reg-istry, the National Kiko Goat Registry.)

Once the speculators left the scene, Hankin said,

serious breeders have tried “to spread the word ofthe Kiko’s traits of hardiness, motherability, milkproduction, fast growth, strong hooves and — to adegree — parasite tolerance.”

It is those qualities that attract Westhausen andLeFever to the Kiko breed. They are trying to sellbreeding stock, since they want to keep their herdsmall. They currently have one of their three bucksfor sale.

Westhausen raised cattle on his diversified farm.Now he has retired and most of the farm is in theConservation Reserve Program. They keep pasturefor horses, five bison and the goats, and they stillraise the guineas that brought them together.

They have traveled to sales in Iowa, Missouri,Indiana and Oklahoma. Some of their does are fromTexas. Their three bucks come from Indiana,Kansas, and Red Wing, Minn. It’s that last state —Minnesota — where they hope the breed willbecome more established in the future.

They find the Kiko breed to be a hardy, low-main-tenance breed for this part of the country, “if it’s ameat goat you’re looking for,” Westhausen said.

My wife might say “he’sgetting a little gray aroundthe muzzle, a bit cloudy inthe eyes, lays around a lot.”

“His hearing isn’t verygood any more, and he does-n’t move with the same easeas he did when he wasyounger.”

“His dog, too,” she’d likelyadd.

I’ll admit that we’re bothslowing down.

And certainly, Sampson, my devotedhunting companion, is showing his ageat 12 1/2 years.

For the first decade, the Englishspringer spaniel was a hard-charginghunting machine.

We’d start in the morning and hunttogether all day, quitting only after weacquired a limit or ran out of legalshooting time.

A repaired ACL two years ago onlyslowed him up nominally. Even afterthe surgery, we hunted a full season.

Last year, we hunted harduntil season’s end, both inMinnesota and Iowa. But itwas becoming apparent thattime was catching up withmy buddy.

In his younger days, hewas able to leap onto thetailgate of the pickup withease. In recent years, Iwould have to give him a lit-tle boost. Nowadays, I sim-ply hoist him up and into

the bed.Not so long ago, he would lead the

way up and down the basement stairs,several steps at a time.

He now follows me up and downthem with care and deliberation, one ata time.

Hard of hearing, he is embarrassedwhen I have to wake him from hissound sleep and noisy snoring for hismorning walk, an excursion that hasbeen shortened considerably over theyears.

Anyone who has owned a good bird

dog would agree that above all, theirhunting companions live to hunt.

And much as I love to hunt pheas-ants, pursuing them without a dog isnot only a lot of work and largely inef-fective, it also is an empty experience.

There is something magical aboutwatching a hunting dog work a weedpatch, nose to the ground as it sortsthrough the mysteries of such wildplaces.

And if it all comes together, with aflurry of wings, a shot, a bird found andreturned to hand, that’s the icing onthe cake.

I still look forward to the opening ofthe pheasant season, though perhapsnot as eagerly as I once did.

As a young hunter, scarce pheasantswere the rule rather than the excep-tion. Tough hunting was expected.

We’d hunt long and hard, carried allday through the thickest cover onyoung, strong legs. So would our dogs.But success was never assured.

But after nearly three decades of the

Conservation Reserve Program, I havegrown accustomed to having plenty ofopportunities to bag a bird or twoevery trip.

Now, as CRP acres once again arevanishing from the countryside, so,too, are the birds.

What’s more, as the 2013 seasonapproached, I harbored real concernsover the aging spaniel’s ability toaccompany me this fall.

While he remains in pretty goodshape, the rigors of hunting can betough for even young dogs, let alone ageriatric canine.

Unable to hunt during the openingweekend, we finally managed to getout mid-week.

The old dog perked up when he sawthe shotgun, the electronic collar, mein my blaze orange. He bolted for thedoor, prancing in a tight circle.

We traveled just a few miles to apublic hunting area in Nicollet Countywhere well-worn paths from the park-

SAMPSON, from pg. 15A ing area into the grassy cover sug-gested the place already had seenplenty of hunting pressure.

I carried a gun, but on a heavilyhunted public area, one still sur-rounded by plenty of unpicked corn-fields, it was with realistic expecta-tions.

The trip was less about finding birdsthan stretching our legs. Mainly, Iwanted to see if the old dog was up to it.

We hunted around the edges, avoid-ing the thickest cover.

Like a veteran, Sampson quarteredin front of me, occasionally pausing todetermine my whereabouts.

After 90 minutes and flushing not asingle bird, we were on the swing backto the now distant truck when I noticedthat the headlands of a nearby corn-field had been picked where it abuttedthe public area.

It would be a long detour to check itout and would mean a much longerwalk back to the truck.

But on a hunch that a few birdsmight have lingered along the sun-bathed grassy edge to feed instead ofheading into the unpicked corn, weworked our way to the spot.

We had hunted just a few yards when

the dog grew more animated, castingback and forth. A moment later, he dis-appeared into the grass.

I had barely taken a step in to followhim when a few yards away, in noisyflurry of wings beats, a rooster explodedfrom the grass, cackling loudly.

I swung on it and just as it was aboutto disappear over a stand of willows,touched off a shot. Feathers flew, thebird plummeted into the heavy cover.The dog plunged in after it.

For two old hunters, it was a long,long walk back to the truck.

But with the unexpected gift of theyoung, fully plumed cock pheasant,taken from a heavily hunted publicarea no less, weighing nicely in thegame bag, it was worth every step.

What would you do if your pet’s heartsuddenly stopped working properly?

It’s always a good time for petowners to educate themselveson their pet’s heart health.The best place to start is yourveterinarian.

If your pet has an irregularheartbeat or low heart rate itshould be evaluated by yourveterinarian and may indicatethe need for a pacemaker.

“Pet owners are oftenamazed that their pets canlive for years and feel muchbetter than they have in along time after receiving a pacemaker,”said Ashley Saunders, assistant profes-sor at the Texas A&M College of Veteri-nary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences.

“Even younger working dogs thatassist in border patrol and drug sniff-ing are able to perform their duties thesame way a normal dog would afterreceiving a pacemaker.”

Dogs with low heart rates tend tomove slower and are likely to tire morequickly, because blood is not being effi-ciently pumped to the rest of the body.

They may experience symptoms such

as fatigue, fainting, weakness, cough-ing and a swollen abdomen.

“Canine heart rates usually rangefrom 80 to 150 beats per

minute, but when rates dropbelow 80, pacemakers may be

suggested to provide the userswith ‘artificial cardiac pacing’thereby raising and stabilizingtheir heart rates,” Saunders

said.The two-hour surgical pro-

cedure is often done in one oftwo ways: transvenous(through the neck) or epicar-dial (through the abdomen).

“The most common method used inveterinary medicine is transvenous,”Saunders said. “This procedure allowsus to create about a three-inch incisionin the neck area.”

Saunders said surgical patients areusually kept overnight for observationand brought in for a one-month check-up following the procedure and thenevaluated every six months.

Pet owners are also advised to use aharness instead of a collar if the pulsegenerator is placed inside the neck.

“A lead can be pulled out of place if

the animal is too rambunctious duringthe two-to-four-week healing period,”Saunders said.

This dependency is less of a problemfor pets after recovery because the bodyforms a type of cast around the pace-maker keeping it in place. After recov-ery, pacemakers have a long life andfunction like a wristwatch battery.

“If the pacemaker begins to showsigns of wear, it will not stop automati-

cally,” Saunders said. “It will first slowdown, dropping the heart rate. That’swhy the check-ups are so important.”

There isn’t much that can invoke more fear andsadness in a new parent, than the school bus com-ing down the road to pick up their child on that firstday of kindergarten. It’s a rite of passage for chil-dren and parents equally.

The bus stopping at the end of the driveway was avision that my parents had for almost 30 years,with a whole brood of kids to get through school. It

was a vision that we saw here for only a dozen or soyears by the time our kids started driving to schoolbecause of volleyball and wrestling practices.

Every morning without fail I would watch our kidscross the road toward the bright sun coming up inthe eastern sky, and see them get on the bus. What-ever the spell was, I never grew tired of watchingthem get on the bus, wondering what the day would

hold for them. Even early on, itsaddened me a little knowingthat those days would some-day come to an end. It wouldbe yet another rite of passage.

When I was growing up andstarted out my education atthe Catholic school in Kingsley,Iowa, we were guided to andfrom school each day by ourparish priests, who doubled asthe bus drivers. The Catholicschool bus had certain rules —when we got to the city limits,there was to be complete silence on the bus until wegot inside the school building. We all just knew it,and when we neared town, the bus filled with noisycountry children fell silent.

Imagine that today.But the other rule we had to follow was at the end

of the day when we all boarded the bus to go homeagain. Our school went to the eighth grade, so one ofthe “older kids” (eighth graders) on the bus had tostart and lead the rosary, which the entire busload ofchildren had to recite everyday. We learned thatprayer young in those days, if only because of dailyrepetition. I hope it wasn’t because of the drivingrecord of our bus drivers that we had to pray as werode home each day.

If you were a Schroeder kid as my siblings and Iwere, you either longed to live in town so you didn’thave to do that, or you longed to get off of the busfirst. But if you lived where we did — a gazillionmiles from civilization in any direction — you wereamong the first ones on and the last ones off.

TABLE, from pg. 20AThe Schroeder kids never got out of

saying the rosary in its entirety everyday.

You might know.It was a change of pace when we

started at the public school once ourCatholic school closed after the 1971-72school year. We didn’t know anyone inRemsen, so stepping on the school busthat first time was a little scary for meas a sixth grader, climbing up the stepsand looking into a bus filled withstrangers’ faces.

But the good thing was that we didn’thave to be silent as we neared town (oras we neared our middle school at thetime — which was in the country), andwe didn’t have to say the rosary aloudon the way home. We thought we’d all

died and went to heaven. Looking backnow, what a great prayer experiencethat was for us as growing children.

But in either scenario, the first per-son we saw was the bus driver. The busdriver is someone who is hugely takenfor granted, I believe.

For the child, the bus driver is thefirst representative of the school theysee in the morning, and the last repre-sentative of the school they see at theend of the day. Bus drivers live with acut-up schedule all week, needing to beat the school by 3 in the afternoon, andoften times, carving out evening andweekend time for the kids as well.

The bus driver carries out an impor-tant task, and not always under thebest of circumstances when you thinkabout roads during Midwest winters, oreven because the nature of some kids

today. Bus drivers are responsible forcargo for which parents would givetheir very lives. For parents, it’s a mat-ter of handing over the safety and well-being of their children to the personbehind the steering wheel of the schoolbus. And often times, they don’t evenknow that person.

It’s huge.They’re the disciplinarian on board,

and sometimes the sounding board forthose who would dare to befriend theman or woman behind the steeringwheel. Bus drivers often know muchabout what goes on in the life of the

farm family, since toward the end ofthe route after school, they are the one“left” to talk to. Bus drivers do a lot oflistening.

And maybe they’re glad for that, if itmeans they don’t have to pray therosary with the kids everyday. I’msure a bus driver thought up that rule.

Priest or not.

Trees and other perennial plants are visiblystressed this fall primarily due to droughtconditions from the past two or moreyears.

Tree stress symptoms includeabundant seed production, leafscorch, early fall colors, leaf drop,limb die back and yellowing orbrowning of leaves/needles. Trees andshrubs, especially conifer trees andtrees and shrubs planted in the lastthree years should be watered generouslyuntil the soil freezes. Mulching newly plantedtrees will help reduce winter root damage.

Young maples and thin-barked treesmay benefit from some kind of sunscaldprotection to prevent the bark fromcracking this winter and spring. Thisprotection is usually in the form of aplastic tube or tree wrap (remove inspring). These practices can also helpin reducing winter animal damage.

Other fall management practiceswhich will help reduce winter damageto trees and shrubs can be found athttp://z.umn.edu/winterdamage.

Protecting trees from rabbits,mice, voles and deer is a majorconcern in some landscapesduring the winter. Mow orremove tall grass to reducemice and vole damage. Ifthe bark is removed orseverely damaged aroundthe tree, it will die. Protec-

tive physical barriers suchas tree tubes, hardware clothor fencing can be done when practical.

Odor, taste and visual repellents can be used torepel many wildlife species, but may have

inconsistent effectiveness. Human hair,soaps, garlic oil, hot sauce and animal

repellents can be applied to branches andfoliage to discourage browsing. Weather,application frequency, animal popula-tion and feeding pressure affect the suc-cess of repellents.

Some animals become desensi-tized to the repellent, so you maywant to alternate repellents. A web

resource that reviews prevention andcontrol of wildlife damage can be found

at http://z.umn.edu/critters.

If you are unsure what is causing problems in yourlandscape, Extension has a great website to helphomeowners diagnose tree, shrub and plant prob-lems or identifying a weed or insect. This site alsohas links to the U of M Plant Disease Clinic and SoilTesting Lab, http://z.umn.edu/diagnose.

Fall is also a good time to plant trees (water untilthe soil freezes). Recommended trees for all regionsof Minnesota can be found at http://z.umn.edu/rectrees.

The best time to prune trees is during the dormantseason from January to March. Flowering shrubscan be pruned in the summer after flowering.

Certain foods and dishes bring outthe passion in people — especially inthe barbecue genre.

Different regions have specialtiesand their own way of doing things.Whether it be about the wood, the rubor the sauce, full-blown argumentscan erupt over which is best if you aretalking with people who are passion-ate about their ‘que.

Another dish that creates hard-headed passion is Buffalo chicken

wings.This dish was created at the Anchor

Bar in Buffalo, N.Y. The story goes thatthe owner of the bar wanted to fix alate-night snack for her son and hisfriends, so she used what she had onhand. Back then chicken wings werescraps, so she decided to deep fry themand create a sauce using hot sauce,butter and vinegar. She used bluecheese dressing for dip, and voila, Buf-falo wings.

Many recipes out there claim tobe the original. But, if any-thing else is added, it isnot the original sauce.Even the Anchor Barhas created many vari-eties and flavors.

If you want a taste ofthe original, give thissimple recipe a try.The basics

For this recipe, I usedthighs instead of wings.Thighs were $1.19 perpound, while wings were$1.99 per pound. Also, I likethe flavor of thighs, andthey have more meat forless money. I used thisrecipe to make a family pack — orabout 10 — chicken thighs.

I used indirect heat, which meansonly half the grill has coals under it. Ifyou are using a gas grill, preheat withall flames, then turn off half of them.

For coals, I used a mixture of stan-dard briquettes and lump wood char-coal.Getting started

Brush both sides of each thigh witholive oil. Sprinkle both sides with saltand pepper. For more flavor, use yourfavorite rub. I used a rub with apaprika and brown sugar base thatincluded granulated garlic, salt, onionpowder and freshly cracked black pep-per. Go online and find a basic rubrecipe. (I keep a batch on hand in ourkitchen.)

Once the thighs are seasoned, placethem on the side of the grill wherethere is no heat directly under themeat. Close the lid and allow thethighs to grill/bake for 30 minutes or

so. If using charcoal, makesure all vents (top and bot-tom) are at least half-opened,so you don’t kill the coalswith a lack of oxygen.Buffalo sauce

3/4 cup hot sauce (Frankshot sauce is considered

authentic)3/4 cup real butter (I

didn’t say this washealth food.)

6 Tbs. white wine vine-garMelt the butter over

medium heat. Add the hotsauce and vinegar, then stiruntil blended. If you’re hav-

ing sinus issues, take a big whiff. Youshould be breathing better now.

Take some of the sauce outside(maybe one-third of it) and baste thethighs. Then place the thighs over thedirect flame and baste the other side.Stay with it as you will probably haveflaming.

The chicken is pretty much cooked bythis point. All you are doing is adding alittle char and texture.

Bring in the thighs, discard the saucethat you used outside for basting, andpour the fresh sauce that you leftinside over the thighs.

Serve with celery, carrots and yourfavorite blue cheese or ranch dressing.It’s a flavorful, inexpensive meal. Giveit a try.

This year’s contest also hosted a junior competitionfor youth beef industry advocates ages 13-15. Fivecontestants were also judged in the same three cate-gories: media interview, consumer event and issuesresponse. The first place winner was Sydney Zehn-der of Stanchfield and the second place winner wasAbbey Schiefelbein of Kimball.

Contestants from throughout the state competedfor a place on this team of agriculture advocates anda $500 cash prize, sponsored by the Minnesota StateCattlemen, will be given to the winner, ShelbySchiefelbein. Additional scholarships totaling $650will be given by the Minnesota CattleWomen and the

Minnesota Beef Council to the other team members.During the competition, Colleen Zenk from the

Minnesota Beef Council went over the MinnesotaBeef Ambassador Team Handbook, expectations andbeef materials that they could use when doing aclassroom presentation, which is required on thestate and national level.

Following the competition Sara Colombe, aNational Collegiate Agriculture Ambassador withthe National FFA Program, gave a short workshop toeveryone, “Now What?” aimed toward the contest-ants to know now what they should do after the com-petition.

events, prepare classroom presentations and writea media article in their local areas and complete theMaster of Beef Advocacy program.

During their farewell speeches the 2012-13 teammembers — Kelly Morrison, Shelby Schiefelbein,Jenna White, John Morrison and Zack Klaers —expressed how grateful they were to have been onthe team and encouraged everyone to take advan-tage of all the wonderful opportunities to networkand advance their knowledge of the beef commu-nity. The 2012-13 Beef Ambassador Team learnednumerous key messages that they used when talk-ing to others about the misconceptions they hadabout the beef industry. Over the year, they wereable to tell their beef story and what they did ontheir farms and ranches on a day-to-day basis toconsumers across the state. They encouraged every-one to continue to advocate for the beef industry, aswe have lots to be proud of and our voices need to beheard. ❖

Sullivan Supply Co., aMidwest livestock groom-ing firm headquartered atDunlap, Iowa, doesn’tmiss a beat when it comesto making customers andpotential customers awareof “what’s needed” to be asuccess in the livestock shows indus-try.

At the recent Clay County Fair atSpencer, Iowa, Mark Blake was theguy with the Sullivan Show Trailerpacked full of “stuff ” that producersneeded for show competition of theirlivestock.

Blake talks with respect for whathe’s selling, saying, “I’ve got show cat-tle of my own so I always try our newproducts on my own cattle. That’s howI stay on top of our products and that’swhat makes me comfortable about giv-ing advice.”

What really gives this outfit an “opendoor” with livestock producers, espe-

cially younger guys and gals, are“Graduate Courses” and specialstock show clinics put on free ofcharge.

Called a “Stock Show University,”John Sullivan, the founder of Sulli-van Supply, started these eventsthree years ago. Blake explained,“we put on one-hour to two-hourlong clinics at stock shows across

the country. Presenters at these clinicsare well-known fitters and producers,plus occasionally a university profes-sor in animal science. Purpose is tohelp the youth learn how to better pre-pare themselves with their beef proj-ects.”

Their “grad clinics” get participantseven more involved. It’s a two-day,weekend event, 100-percent free. “We’llget 10 to 20 animal science professorsfrom various colleges to do theinstructing on a host of different top-ics. We often get upwards of a couplehundred kids from that local area sit-ting in on these clinics which ofteninvolve working with live animals sothe younger folks can really see

exactly the various things to do toproperly prepare and show a critter,”Blake said.

Reflecting on his company, he saidSullivan Supply Co. specializes in theshow livestock industry with theemphasis on cattle but also sheep,goats and hogs. “And because the ClayCounty Fair has become such an out-standing livestock event we can showand sell to a big number of livestockproducers. Even though there’s lots ofvolatility in agriculture these days, thespecial industry we work in is fairlysteady year by year. This show andthis area of Iowa and southern Min-nesota have good livestock numbers,”he said.

The Iowa State Fair is a bigger showfor Sullivan Supply simply becausethere are considerably more cattle.Blake said they also attend NationalWestern at Denver, the North Ameri-can International Livestock Expositionat Louisville, Ky. and state fairs inOhio, Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota,Wisconsin and South Dakota.

His display at the Clay County Fairincluded more than 200 differentproducts. Leading the sales paradeare their liquid and aerosol itemssuch as special soaps with “vita hair”;conditioners for cattle hair; plus vari-ous clippers for special trimming andgrooming prior to entry into the judg-ing arena. Another big item is theirshow boxes — several different sizesso an individual producer has virtu-ally everything needed to prep live-stock. Show boxes are priced from$695 to $1,050.

Cattle dominate in sales items forSullivan Supply; he did about $30,000in business at the Clay County Fair.But Sullivan Supply is a big hitteracross the nation. He indicated thefirm ships about 1,000 packages eachday from their Dunlap headquarters.Besides their seven show trailers,they have a country-wide dealer net-work and stores in Hillsboro, Texas,and Lodi, Calif.

MNsure’s Executive Director, April Todd-Malmlov,announced that in the first 10 days of operation,more than 10,000 Minnesotans had taken a majorstep toward buying health insurance for themselves,their families or their employees through theMNsure marketplace. As of Oct. 11, there had beenmore than 35,000 unique visits to the MNsure.orgwebsite and more than 10,000 accounts have beencreated, reflecting a strong desire to shop, compare

and buy affordable health coverage. “We are pleasedand proud that so many Minnesotans have accessedMNsure to begin the process of securing affordable,comprehensive health insurance for themselves, theirfamilies or their employees,” said Todd-Malmlov.“Nearly 500,000 Minnesotans are living withouthealth insurance, and MNsure plans have the lowestinsurance rates in the country and greater coverageoptions for every Minnesotan in need of coverage. The

promise of coverage regardless of a person’s medicalhistory is especially reassuring for those who havebeen denied insurance up to now.”

In addition to the thousands of people who have vis-ited the site and opened accounts, in the days sinceOct. 1, MNsure’s Contact Center has been busy aswell, receiving an average of 1,000 calls each day. Mostcallers have had questions about applications,inquired about eligibility requirements or receivedassistance in opening an account from a MNsureemployee. The toll-free number for the Contact Centeris (855) 366-7873. Assistance is available in English,Spanish, Hmong and Somali, and representatives con-nect callers who need help in other languages to a Lan-guage Line offering 140 languages.

“We believed that October and early Novemberwould be quieter than these numbers imply, thatmany Minnesotans would come through MNsure toexplore and educate themselves about what’s avail-able without necessarily creating accounts,” Todd-Malmlov said. “We are still a young organization, butwe are encouraged by this terrific response, espe-cially when you consider that each visitor and eachaccount may represent interest on behalf of multiplepeople in a family or a small business of 50 employ-ees or more.”

Open enrollment through MNsure began Oct. 1and runs through March 31. For more informationabout MNsure, how it will benefit Minnesota con-sumers and businesses, and how to provide input logon to www.mnsure.org. ❖

Changes in health insurance policy create both anopportunity and an obligation for people who arecurrently uninsured.

Obligation: those who are not insured in 2014 willbe subject to a penalty (with just a few exceptions).

Opportunity: two key obstacles to health carecoverage are removed.

• Insurers can no longer deny coverage or chargehigher premiums to those with pre-existing healthconditions.

• Most people without employer-provided healthinsurance will get help paying their health insur-ance premiums.

Premiums assistance will only be available if you pur-chase your insurance policy through the official HealthInsurance Marketplace. As you sign up for insurancecoverage, you will be asked about your expected incomefor 2014. Based on your income estimate and familysize, you will learn how much premium assistance you’llreceive in the form of a tax credit.

Many Americans are eligible for these “premiumtax credits.”

• single individuals with income up to $45,960 and• families of four up to $94,200 will qualify.The assistance will be calculated on a sliding scale,

so people at the higher end of the scale will receive asmall amount of assistance, while those with lowerincomes will receive more.

Imagine you are eligible for a $4,800 tax credit

(equivalent to $400 per month). If your monthly pre-mium is $500, then you will pay just $100/month outof pocket (with the rest paid by the government). Atthe end of the year when you file your tax return,you’ll put in your actual income. If your initial esti-mate was exactly right, then the tax return willshow the $4,800 tax credit, and you’ll come out even.If you are actually eligible for a larger credit, thenyou will receive the extra as part of your tax refund;if your actual premium tax credit is lower than youplanned, then that will factor into your tax return,reducing your refund or creating an amount due.

If you discover partway through the year that yourincome will be different than expected, you canrevise your initial application. Doing so will preventunpleasant surprises at tax time (for those whoseincome goes up) or will reduce your monthly pre-mium payments (for those whose income goes down).

If you are already covered through an employer planor a public program such as Medicare or Tricare, youwill probably not need to make any change. Thosewith employer-provided coverage are not eligible forpremium tax credits in the Marketplace unless their

employer plan does not meet guidelines for adequatecoverage or affordability. The marketplace is prima-rily designed for those who do not have health cover-age through an employer plan. Those who shop theMarketplace for insurance will also be referred, ifappropriate, to Medicaid or Hawk-I (for children) orthe new Iowa Health and Wellness plan.

Some who shop in the Marketplace will discoverthat in addition to assistance with paying premi-ums, they also qualify for lower out-of-pocket costs(deductibles, co-pays, etc). This will apply to thosewith income at or below 250 percent of the povertylevel (approximately $59,000 for a family of four).

The penalty for not carrying health insurance willbe significant, but fortunately coverage should beaffordable for nearly everyone. If your income is lowenough that you are not required to file a tax return,you will be exempt from the penalty. You will also beexempt if your share of the premium, even with assis-tance, would be more than 8 percent of your income.

WWhen Veteran’s Day was stillcelebrated as Armistice Day,no one would have celebrated

more than Joseph Pohlen.Pohlen left many family members

behind when the 17-year-old immi-grated to the United States from Ger-many in 1872. He settled near Hos-pers, Iowa, married a young womannamed Margaret, and with her raiseda family of eight children. One son,John, moved to a farm near Wabasso,Minn.

Joseph would visit his son, passingthrough the small town of Wanda,Minn. He liked the town and becamefriends with the priest at St. MathiasCatholic Church.

Joseph’s American dream became anightmare when the United Statesentered World War I.

He was loyal to America, a countrythat had been very good to him, but hewas torn by the thought that his sonsmight be called upon to fight againstfamily members in his native land.

Joseph offered up a prayer — and avow. If none of his sons were drafted,he would build a memorial in honor ofthe Virgin Mary as a sign of thanksgiv-ing. Only one son, John, was drafted,but the Armistice was signed before heleft to join the army.

Joseph kept his vow. With permissionto build on the grounds of St. Mathiasin Wanda, he had an eight-sided chapelerected, honoring his eight children.A.C. Ochs Brick and Tile of Spring-field, Minn., built the chapel at a costof $2,000.

Inside is an altar and a few seats.The walls are light blue and lift up to a

heavenly blue vaulted ceiling, forminga dome top.

Descendants meet there for a familyreunion every couple of years, accord-ing to Donald Pohlen, a great-grandsonof Joseph. The 1922 chapel has beenused by St. Mathias as the startingpoint for liturgical processions into thechurch building, and it is a quiet placefor individuals to meditate.

Among the many monuments thathave been erected for the heroes andsacrifices of war, the Pohlen Chapel inWanda is unique. It is more of a prayerfor peace, the statement of a father’sgratitude to God for the safety of hischildren.

Thanks to Don and Shirley Pohlen forproviding information for this story. ❖

Grain AnglesImportance ofworking capital

We’ve had quite a year so far in the grain industry;both the weather and the markets have been chal-lenging. Many of us are looking forward to closing outthe 2013 books.

However, as we begin planning for 2014 we arefaced with a new dilemma: profitmargin deterioration like wehaven’t seen in years.

Almost daily I get asked, “Whenwill land values and rental ratesstart reflecting the lower com-modity prices we are experienc-ing?” My short answer is, “Whenthey have to.”

Obviously, in the long run, ifyou take $250 to $350 an acre outof the revenue stream of a grainproducer you will eventuallyexperience a change in land rentand asset valuations, but thereare other factors that are involved in changing thisparticular market.

In order to take a “big-picture approach” to landvalues and rental rates, we can’t just look at profitmargins over time; the liquidity or cash positionwithin the marketplace also plays a huge role.

The term often used to measure the liquidity of abusiness is “working capital.” Working capital isdefined as current assets (cash or items that are nor-mally converted to cash during the course of a busi-ness year) minus current liabilities (financial obliga-tions that are due and payable within the next year).

In other words, it’s the owner equity in the currentportion of your financial statement.

Grain OutlookPrices post keyreversal higher

The following market analysis is for the week end-ing Oct. 18.

CORN — Prices eased higher this week after post-ing a key reversal higher on Monday in response toharvest delaying weekend rains and speculativeshort covering.

Short-term demand surfacedto fill October sales obligationsand to satisfy processor needs,keeping basis levels firm toattract bushels to the market.

The trade survived withoutgovernment reports until anagreement was finally reachedin Washington, D.C.

The agreement reopened thegovernment by extending govern-ment funding through mid-Janu-ary and borrowing authorityuntil February. The problemsaren’t solved, but we’ve bought more time to negoti-ate.

One of the first comments we heard from the U.S.Department of Agriculture was that the October cropreport that was scheduled for Oct. 11 will not bereleased — at all. The next crop report will be theregularly scheduled report on Nov. 8.

Export sales for the week ending Sept. 26 werereleased on Oct. 18; sales as of Oct. 3 will be pub-lished Oct. 24; and the weeks ending Oct. 10, 17 and24 will be lumped together on Oct. 31.

During the time we were without the USDA to ver-ify export sales, rumors swirled that China hadbought 300,000 metric tons of U.S. corn this week,

Livestock AnglesNothing like flying blind

It has been an interesting experience to go througha government shutdown and be involved in the live-stock industry. They say there is nothing like flyingblind, and the industry just found out how unnervingthat really is over that 16-day period.

During the government shut-down, the cattle market enjoyedstronger live prices as packerspushed bids higher following thefutures market.

By the end of the week endingOct. 18, cattle prices had reached$131 per hundredweight live and$204/cwt. dressed basis the Mid-west. The futures marketabruptly turned lower as theprices were touched under profittaking since the market hadmoved into higher levels.

The problem was that there wasa vacuum of buy orders and the futures dropped dra-matically to close lower creating a reversal. Techni-cally, this creates a bearish outlook for the cattlemarket. Whether this holds true over the next sev-eral weeks will be the question answered by theactivity in both cash and futures markets.

Despite the fact that cattle numbers are down, thedemand for beef is still in question as domestic move-ment has continued to be slow. Export business hasbeen good; however competing countries have allexpanded their herd sizes and pose a threat to cutinto the U.S. exporting of beef.

The gap between the competitive meats such aschicken and pork has widened once again and withthe disposable income in the United States continu-

NESS, from pg. 10BBased on AgStar’s January 2013

benchmarking analysis of our grainproducers, they have working capital positions thatare considered strong. The average grain producer inour benchmarking analysis has a workingcapital position of around $500 per acreand a WC/VFP (working capital as apercent of value of farm produc-tion) ratio of 46 percent.

Considering that 15 percentWC/VFP is a normal under-writing target, the grainclients in our study havemore than three times thetarget, which is strong.

Working capital is probablyone of the best measures ofan operation’s ability toweather a storm; it’s like gasin the tank. If I play this anal-ogy out a bit, when you’re on atrip traveling down the highway insay, the middle of South Dakota, andyour tank is full, even though you don’tknow when you’ll come across the next gasstation you probably don’t change your speedbecause you have plenty of gas and a history of find-ing gas when you need it.

However, when you’re down below a fourth of atank and still don’t know when you’ll find gas, ifyou’re like me, that’s when I start getting nervousand change to a more conservative speed.

I believe this same human nature plays itself out

in the markets. The stronger theworking capital within an industry or

marketplace, the longer we can experi-ence poor or negative margins with little change toour cost structure on competitive assets such as

land.It is especially critical for operators tounderstand how their working capi-

tal position stacks up against thecompetition. Now that tax plan-

ning season is here, it’s impor-tant to analyze capital pur-chase decisions wisely.

Consider how they willimpact your working capitalif you pay cash or how theywill impact your debt serviceif you finance. The decision topurchase capital may save

you from paying taxes now, butdoes it put your operation at a

competitive disadvantage if weexperience poor margins for an

extended time? No one producer can force the market

to be reasonable, we can only do our best toprepare our business to persevere through adversityand be positioned for viability when attractive profitmargins return.

‘Human nature plays itself out’

TEALE, from pg. 10Bing to shrink, it could further weaken the domes-tic demand for beef. Therefore, producers shouldmonitor closely the events of the cattle marketover the next several weeks and protect invento-ries as needed.

The hog market has been in a drift pattern forseveral weeks as prices have ever so slowly weak-ened under pressure for increasing live inventory.The pork cutout has also slipped, reflecting theadequate supply of pork in the pipeline.

Demand for pork continues to be good as it isprobably the best value of all the competitivemeats. This demand for pork has also beenreflected in good export business and as the porkcutout weakens and the U.S. dollar remains weak,the export business should remain firm.

However, as hog numbers are expected to con-tinue to expand in the near future, this will likelykeep the live hog prices on the defensive in theweeks ahead. Producers should keep an eye onmarket conditions and use strength to considerprotecting inventories into the end of the year. ❖

NYSTROM, from pg. 10Bbringing the supposed total to 1.2 million mt of cornsales since Oct. 1.

Trader’s estimate that up to 3 mmt of corn hasbeen sold to various destinations since the shut-down. U.S. corn imported into China is reportedlypriced 25 percent cheaper than interior domesticChinese corn. Now we wait for the USDA to playcatch up and either confirm or deny what the mar-ket has been assuming.

Sales for the week ending Sept. 26 were in linewith expectations at 30.5 million bushels, bringingtotal commitments for the year to 576.2 millionbushels. This is up 40 percent from last year at thistime when the USDA in September projected salesto be up 67 percent year on year.

An announcement from Mexico that no geneti-

cally modified organisms can begrown in their country may open thedoor for additional U.S. corn exports toMexico in the coming year. The decision doesn’t pro-hibit the importation of GMO corn, just the produc-tion of it, which in turn will likely lower their domes-tic production on curtailed yield.

The Environmental Protection Agency still did nothave any announcement this week regarding 2014Renewable Fuel Standard levels. The AmericanPetroleum Institute announced that they will suethe EPA if the RFS volumes for 2014 aren’t releasedon time. They claim their members cannot makeplans for the year if they don’t know the rules.

Informa Economics updated their planted acreagefor the 2014-15 crop year as the week came to anend. Their new numbers are not surveyed based.They are forecasting 2014-15 acreage at 91.7 millionacres, down 1 million acres from their Septemberestimate. It is also 5.7million acres lower thanthe USDA’s September2013-14 planted acreageof 97.4 million acres.Informa’s 2014-15 carry-out estimate is 2.081 bil-lion bushels. The USDA’sending stocks for 2013-14is 1.855 billion bushels.

Be on the lookout for apossible labor strike onthe Canadian National Railway that could begin assoon as Oct. 29.

OUTLOOK: Corn is a balancing act of improvingyields and unknown acreage versus lots of availablestorage, demand and minimum producer sales.

After setting a new low for the move at $4.32 earlyin the week, corn bounced back to close 8 1/4 centshigher for the week at $4.41 1/2 per bushel. Short-term support is this week’s low of $4.32 and resist-ance at $4.50 per bushel.

Consider using rallies as selling opportunities tomake catch-up sales. That opportunity may arisewhen the USDA releases data that has been missingdue to the government closure, i.e. confirming exportsales rumors.

But here’s the bottom line: we’ve got a huge corncrop that eventually has to go somewhere — in thebin, on the ground or sold into the pipeline. Goodethanol margins and sales commitments shouldkeep prices supported above $4.25/$4.15 per bushelwith resistance at $4.50 per bushel. Heavy pressuremay not occur until harvest is over 80 percent com-plete when bushels may struggle to find storage.

SOYBEANS — Soybean harvest is wrapping up inmany areas as we headed into the weekend. Traderspredict harvest will be 60 to 70 percent completewhen the USDA announces progress on Oct. 21.

Soybeans this week traded in a relatively smallconsolidation range until the government came backto work. Support was generated by the NationalOilseed Processors Association September crushreport that was better than anticipated at 108.7 mil-lion bushels versus estimates for 106.5 million

bushels. This is the smallest Septem-ber crush since 2009, another tight

year.Soyoil stocks dropped 296 million pounds to 1.372

billion pounds, the lowest level since 2005.Harvest was slowed in some areas due to rain, but

harvest pushed on with yields continuing to be as orbetter than expected. Demand was apparent withthe November-January spread at an inverse.

Get ready for a slew of government reports nowthat everyone is going back to work. The trade hasbeen suggesting that up to 3 mmt of beans have beensold during the government shutdown. The day thegovernment reopened, the USDA announced in theirdaily reporting that China bought 222,000 mt of U.S.beans and another 140,000 mt was sold to unknown.

Export sales for the week ending Sept. 26 werepublished by the USDA at 31.6 million bushels. Total

export commitmentsstand at 975.8 millionbushels, up 13 percentfrom last year. The USDAis projecting sales to be up4.2 percent year-on-year.

Informa Economics’ new2014-15 planted acreageforecast is 83.9 millionacres; this is 300,000acres higher than theirprevious estimate and

compared to this year’s 77.2 million planted acres(on the September crop report). The higher acreagecan be attributed to better revenue per acre thancorn.

Informa’s 2014-15 carryout forecast is 336 millionbushels or up 186 million bushels from this year’sUSDA 150 million bushel ending stocks estimate.Safras this week upped their Brazilian bean produc-tion to 89.45 mmt compared to USDA’s 88.0 mmtSeptember prediction.

OUTLOOK: Downside is limited by pipeline needsand as the depth of this week’s sales is determined(big data download on Oct. 31), while upside is lim-ited by higher yields and harvest ending growersales. As harvest winds down, the market will stillneed to keep beans moving, either through futuresaction, basis action or a combination of both.

The United States has a significant lineup of soy-bean and meal exports to ship. Once bushels aresquirreled away, it will not be easy to entice them tothe market. November soybeans regained nearly allof last week’s 28 1/4 cent loss, closing up 24 1/2 centsthis week to settle at $12.91 1/4 per bushel.

Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the week end-ing Oct. 18: Minneapolis wheat closed 5 1/2 centshigher, Chicago rallied 13 1/2 cents and Kansas Citygained 8 1/2 cents. November crude oil dropped$1.21 to $100.81, ultra-low-sulfur diesel wasunchanged, gasoline was one-half cent higher, andnatural gas fell 1 1⁄4 cents. The next USDA cropreport will be published Nov. 8.

But here’s the bottom line: we’vegot a huge corn crop that eventu-ally has to go somewhere — inthe bin, on the ground, or soldinto the pipeline.

This column was written for the market-ing week ending Oct. 18.

Lawmakers crafted a compromise to endthe 16-day government shutdown andraise the debt ceiling. The Senate votewas 81 to 18, and 285 to 144 in the House.

The shutdown resulted in several U.S.Department of Agriculture reports beingcanceled or postponed. The October WorldAgricultural Supply and Demand Esti-mates and Crop Production reports werecanceled but this month’s Livestock,Dairy, and Poultry Outlook wasreleased Friday as scheduled butafter our deadline.

The August Dairy Products report,which was to be released Oct. 3, will be out Oct. 21.The Oct. 21 September Milk Production report willbe issued Nov. 1. The Oct. 22 September Cold Storagereport will be released Oct. 31, and the Oct. 24 Live-stock Slaughter report will be out Oct. 31, along withthe monthly Ag Prices report.

In dairy politics, Dairy Business Update reportsthat Republican and Democratic House memberswho will serve on the House-Senate ConferenceCommittee, tasked with resolving differencesbetween the House and Senate-passed farm bills,have been named and included 17 Republican confer-ees and 11 Democratic members.

Interestingly, neither Reps. Goodlatte,R-Va., nor Scott, D-Ga., architects of theso-called Dairy Freedom Act (the Houseamendment that strips the Dairy MarketStabilization Program from proposeddairy policy), were named to the commit-tee.

Appointed House members who serve onthe Foreign Affairs Committee and Ways& Means Committee negotiate only spe-cific sections of the farm bill. Also last Fri-day, the House passed, by voice vote, amotion to go to conference with the Sen-

ate. A complete list of the conferees isposted at www.dairyline.com.The National Milk Producers Feder-

ation praised the action, stating in a press release:“We commend the leadership of the House of Repre-sentatives for taking the next crucial step towardcompleting a new farm bill, and creating a new andbetter safety net for dairy farmers,” and added thatthe NMPF will work to remind the conferees of theimportance of a balanced and cost-effective dairyprogram.

“The Senate’s bipartisan Dairy Security Act is theonly program designed to both help farmers whenthey need it most, while also limiting taxpayers’ lia-bility through its market stabilization mechanism,”the NMPF said. “Without the market stabilizationprogram, farmers will continue to suffer prolongedperiods of poor margins, while taxpayers will subsi-dize artificially-low milk prices.”

But a proposal by two University of Ohio dairyeconomists John Newton and Cam Thraen called“MILC and Honey,” is getting attention. They sayit’s a “retooled dairy farm safety net that works forsmall and large-scale dairy farm managers, is fis-cally responsible, does not mute market supply anddemand signals, and does not require a market sta-bilization program.”

The plan allows dairy producers an option tochoose annually between Milk Income Loss Con-tract program participation or a stand-alone margininsurance program as their elected safety net.

The University of Minnesota’s Marin Bozic said inFriday’s DairyLine that the proposal “gives dairyproducers a genuine choice. ... Dairy producers thatgrow most of their feed can continue to use theMILC program to protect milk revenue and thosethat have feed risk exposure can choose the newmargin insurance.”

The program is more conservative, Bozic said, andlimits margin coverage to $6.50 per hundredweight,a level Bozic said “will work very well as a safetynet against deep losses, but does not cover shallowlosses as some risk is needed for dairy markets tofunction properly.”

“The Ohio proposal certainly reduces the need forthe stabilization program,” Bozic said, “but I do notthink it will end all debates.

“Proponents of the Dairy Security Act will con-

MIELKE, from pg. 13Btinue to argue that we need incen-tives to accelerate margin recoverywhen margins are low. What I would say is that, ifyou had to drop the stabilization program for politi-cal reasons, the Ohio proposal is the most meaning-ful alternative to the Dairy Security Act I have seento date.”

When asked if the proposal is a “Johnny comelately,” Bozic said, “No, the MILC was a Johnny-come-lately, and now it is the foundation of our dairypolicy.” While Bozic is convinced the proposal hasstrong merit, he stopped short of endorsing it, con-cluding, “We should consider the Ohio proposal seri-ously.”

In a regional vein, the DBU reported that a Decem-ber 2007 decision by the California Department ofFood & Agriculture may have set in motion an eco-nomic catastrophe California dairy families continueto face.

Michael Marsh, CEO of Western United Dairymen,writing in last week’s WUD Weekly Update, chargesthat a “fateful decision by Ag Secretary A. G. Kawa-mura has cost the state’s dairy families dearly. ...Nearly a quarter of the state’s dairy families losttheir businesses, having been whipsawed by feedprices driven out of control by a federal ethanol man-date and a California milk price now disconnectedfrom the market.”

“Since Kawamura’s decision, California dairy fami-lies have witnessed $940 million transferred fromtheir checkbooks to California cheese makers,”Marsh charged. “If pricing trends remain relativelyconstant through November, that cumulative trans-fer from farmers to cheese plants will eclipse $1 bil-lion.”

Meanwhile; the Milk ProducersCouncil reports that the CDFA’s web-

site indicates that an announcementshould be coming on or before Oct. 22 on the resultsof the recent pricing hearing which considered anegotiated agreement between producer groups andcheese manufacturers for modifications to the Class4b formula (milk sold to California’s cheese manufac-turers).

The details, as spelled out by the Dairy Institute onbehalf of the state’s cheese manufacturers, can befound at www.milkproducerscouncil.org/070813dairyinstitute.pdf.

The financial impact of those agreed-upon modifi-cations would be an increase of about 65 to 70cents/cwt. in the Class 4b price, depending on themarket conditions going forward, according to theMPC, but adds that even a 70-cent/cwt. adjustmentonly partially closes the gap between California’sClass 4b price and the comparable Federal OrderClass III price.”

While we’re in the Golden State, a California fed-eral judge has dismissed California Dairies Inc. froma class action lawsuit accusing it and affiliateDairyAmerica of low balling nonfat dry milk prices,but found DairyAmerica’s alleged misreportingaffected producers payments for raw milk.

The DBU reports that the lawsuit (Carlin et al v.DairyAmerica Inc. et al, 1:09-cv-00430) in the Cali-fornia Eastern District Court, was originally filed inMarch of 2009. Subsequent lawsuits filed by otherdairy producers were consolidated into the singleclass action suit.

The lawsuit alleged false reporting of the NFDMprices used to calculate federal order minimumprices resulted in depressed milk prices to dairy pro-

ducers. Following an audit for the period coveringApril 29, 2006, to April 14, 2007, USDA’s Ag Mar-keting Service found some price reports includedfixed forward pricing sales, which are explicitly pro-hibited. During the height of the problem, Nov. 11,2006 to March 10, 2007, prices were understated byan average of 4.2 cents per pound.

It’s estimated a penny increase in the NFDM priceraises producer milk prices about 9 cents/cwt. in thefederal order blend or “uniform” price. AMS esti-mated the errors resulted in a loss of about $50 mil-lion to dairy producers.

■

The nation’s largest dairy cooperative will geteven bigger. Dairylea Cooperative Inc.’s Board ofDirectors has voted to merge with Dairy Farmers ofAmerica. The proposal, presented to members atDairylea’s annual meeting this week, reflects adesire to “position Dairylea for the future amid rap-idly evolving market dynamics,” according to a jointpress release. The proposed merger requiresapproval by Dairylea’s members, who will be askedto vote during a special meeting in February.

Lime Spreading“Have you checked your soil PH lately”

Advantages we offer:• We unload directly from the trucks to a floater

(Terra Gator) without stockpiling material.This gives us a more uniform spread with nofoliage to plug up the spreader.

• With direct loading there is no stockpile, nowasted lime or mess in your field.

• We use a floater (Terra Gator) to spread sowe have less compaction.

• We are equipped to spread variable rate usingGPS mapping.

• We service Minnesota and northern Iowa.Why apply Aglime:• A soil ph level of 5.5 nitrogen efficiency is only

77 percent.• A soil ph level of 6.0 nitrogen efficiency still is

only 89 percent.• At a soil ph level of 7.0 fertilizer efficiency is

100 percent.
