George Eilertson of North-land Securities stated thecounty had a nice bond saleon August 21. The county hasan Aa3 bond rating becausethe County has strong operat-ing reserves, modest debtburden, and long-term growthin the tax base. Eilertson stat-ed that 75 percent of all coun-

ties are in the Aa category.The bond of just under $7million is much lower thanhad been discussed in May.In May, the County Boardhad been looking at numberscloser to $8 million, but thecounty received very stronginterest rates and lower thanexpected bids. Seventy-twopercent of the bond will beused for courthouse repairsand 28 percent for countyditches. First Tennessee(FTN Financial Capital Mar-kets) out of Memphis provid-ed the lowest interest rate at2.68 percent, though Eilert-son said all five bids werevery close because overall thebond market is very strongand he has seen interest ratesdrop recently.

Pinske asked why thecoupons had a higher interestrate. Eilertson explained itwas because of the bond pre-mium.

*****The children had all been pho-

tographed, and the teacher was try-ing to persuade them each to buy acopy of the group picture.

“Just think how nice it will be tolook at it when you are all grown upand say, ‘There’s Jennifer, she’s alawyer,’ or ‘That’s Michael, he’s adoctor.’”

A small voice at the back of theroom rang out, “And there’s theteacher, she’s dead.”

*****A group of Americans were travel-

ing by tour bus through Holland. Asthey stopped at a cheese farm, ayoung guide led them through theprocess of cheese making, explain-ing how goat’s milk was used. Sheshowed the group a lovely hillside

where many goats were grazing.“These,” she explained, “are theolder goats put out to pasture whenthey no longer produce.”

She then asked, “What do you doin America with your old goats?”

A spry old gentleman answered,“They send us on bus tours!

*****Susan was desperate for a few

days off from work. But she knewthe boss wouldn’t let her take a va-cation. So she got a crazy idea. Shehung upside down on the ceilinguntil the big guy noticed and askedher what she was doing. “I’m alightbulb,” she told him.

“You are clearly stressed out,”said the boss, looking concerned.“Go home and take it easy for a cou-ple of days.”

Susan jumped down and headedfor the door.

Her co-worker, Janice, seized heropportunity and followed Susan.

“Where do you think you’regoing?” the boss hollered at her.

“I’m going home too,” Janicesaid. “I can’t work in the dark.”

*****A husband and wife are fighting,

and she yells at him, “The only rea-son you married me was because mygreat uncle left me a million dol-lars.”

He turns back and calmlyreplies, “Don’t be ridiculous. Idon’t care who left it to you!”

*****Josh phoned his heart surgeon to

schedule an appointment for an im-mediate surgery.

“I’m sorry,” the receptionist an-swered, “we don’t have anythingavailable for the next three weeks.”

"But I could die by then!” repliedJosh.

“No problem,” answered the re-ceptionist. “ Just call before tocancel the appointment.”

*****Two farmers are sitting next to

each other. One says to the other, “Ihave such a big farm I could climbin my truck, and it would take metwo days to get across the wholefarm!”

The other farmer turns back tohim and replies, “I also used tohave a truck like that!”

Last week’s whiteout raisedawareness of the importance

of community newspapersOur View: Newspapers play an

important role in the communityImagine a community that has no newspaper. Where

would people in that town get the local and area news? That was the purpose of last week’s whiteout in the Ar-

lington Enterprise. This newspaper was among the 295non-daily newspapers that participated in the promotion aspart of Minnesota Newspaper Week and in conjunctionwith the Minnesota Newspaper Association’s 150th an-niversary.

The whiteout in last week’s Arlington Enterprise did gen-erate talk and conversation among people in the Sibley Eastcommunities. The hope is that it also raised awareness ofthe importance of community newspapers.

Newspapers, especially in a small town, do play an im-portant role in the community. It is the place where peoplecan turn to for coverage of City Council, School Board andCounty Board meetings. It is a document where people canread about school activities/athletic events, local and areanews and letters to the editor. It is also an avenue wherepeople can look at photographs and political cartoons andfind obituaries, legals, farm news, church news, feature sto-ries, advertising and much, much more.

A community newspaper like the Arlington Enterprisecan be full of news and pictures every week, but it willnever survive and thrive without the support of its loyalreaders and faithful advertisers. The Arlington Enterprisehas received tremendous support from its readers and ad-vertisers for the past 134 years and hopes that support willcontinue for many years to come.

Guest Column

By Dr. Glenn MolletteI hear you already. All old people

aren’t cranky. I have a friend who is96 years old and is the delight of allwho know her. She is independent.She works in her garden every sum-mer. She drives herself to church andthe grocery store. She exercises acouple of times a day. She lives in avery small humble house but it’s herplace and she takes care of her home.

Too often my wife and I are outand “hear” crotchety old people.Often they are battering the waitressabout the service or the food. Oftenwe get out of their way at the gro-cery store in fear of being maimedfor life by a grocery cart. When visit-ing in Florida we look both wayswhen crossing the road more thanonce because of several occasionswe've almost been run over by a sen-ior adult.

Let me move quickly here and saymost of my friends are senior adults.I guess I have become one numeri-cally but mentally I don’t want to re-ally embrace this reality. Howeverthe other day at McDonald’s I wasexpecting to get the senior adult cof-fee rate and the cute young lady atthe register said, “I’m sorry sir but

you don’t look like a senior.” Ipaused a moment and almost smilingreplied, “Uh, well, just how old amI,” I asked. “I guess about 42,” shesaid. I handed her the full $1.06gladly for the coffee. “Well sir, am Iright?” I replied, “Honey, you aregood. You nailed it,” I said as I hap-pily walked back out to my car to tellmy wife about my pleasant coffeebuying experience. By the way, mywife just shook her head when I re-layed the conversation to her.

I don’t know for sure why someold people get cranky but I can justimagine. Lots of things change.Hearing changes, eyesight changes,hair grows in weird places, the bodyis simply no longer 18. For somereason Alice Cooper's song, “I’m 18and I Don’t Know What I Want,”just does not relate any longer.Cooper should come out with a newsong, “I’m a senior adult and I don’tknow what I want.” Now, that wouldbe another platinum record forCooper because many seniors arestill a lot like they used to be grow-ing up - trying to figure it all out.

Seniors face reality that theirlongevity is running out. Oftenmoney is tight because so many sen-

iors haven't saved much if anymoney. Social Security isn’t enough.The aches and pains are often onlycalmed by prescriptions and often re-tirement is not what they had envi-sioned.

Adult children factor into seniors’attitudes as well. Adult kids who stillneed the financial help of their oldparents are a drag for everybody. Or,the adult children who simply stilluse mom and dad for merely babysit-ting or solving life's crises take a bitof the spark out of the senior years aswell.

Now let’s go back to my 96 yearold friend. Recently her family invit-ed her to go on a vacation with themfor a couple of weeks. They said,“Mom, we are going to rent a condofor vacation and we want you to gowith us on vacation and cook for us.”She smiled. She thanked them butsaid, “I don’t want to do that.”There, in that one sentence could bethe secret to happy senior adult liv-ing - longevity with the independ-ence to still make choices. Goodluck!

Arlington resident and busi-nessman Jim O’Brien, a player,coach and promoter of ArlingtonA’s baseball since the early1940’s, has received officialword that he will be inductedinto the Minnesota AmateurBaseball Hall of Fame in St.Cloud next month.

The Green Isle Town Base-ball team split two games, butcaptured the Region 3C title in a14-10 win over Young Americalast Sunday. They now advanceto the Minnesota State Class CAmateur Baseball Tournament.

Chad Dose, a 1992 graduateof the Sibley East Senior HighSchool was voted the MostValuable Player on the Arling-ton-Green Isle American LegionBaseball team. Dose hit over700 during the regular seasonthis summer.

Information obtained fromFirst Children’s Financeshows that Sibley County hasa shortage of approximately379 child care slots. The Ar-lington area has the highestgap at 124 slots based on zipcode analysis.

Why is this important toSibley County’s economicdevelopment? Child care re-lated issues represent 45 per-cent of employee absen-teeism, and 65 percent of par-ents’ work schedules are af-fected by child care chal-lenges. This places a finan-cial/operational burden onemployers, and a financialburden on families. It is esti-mated that businesses lose $3billion annually because ofchild care issues.

First Children’s Financehas chosen Sibley County toparticipate in their RuralChild Care Innovation Pro-gram. The Rural Child CareInnovation Program is a com-munity engagement processdesigned to address the chal-

lenges of child care in ruralAmerica. Close to 20 applica-tions statewide were submit-ted and Sibley County wasone of four communities tobe selected.

Beginning Friday, Sept. 1,hunters can access 26,700acres of private land across46 counties in western andsouth-central Minnesotathrough the Walk-In Accessprogram, according to theMinnesota Depatment ofNatural Resources (DNR).

“Finding land for huntingcan be a challenge,” saidScott Roemhildt, Walk-InAccess coordinator for theMinnesota Department ofNatural Resources. “Walk-InAccess allows hunters to ac-cess high-quality privateland and makes it easier forlandowners to allow that ac-cess.”

The Walk-In Access pro-gram pays landowners toallow hunter access. Hunterswith a $3 Walk-In Accessvalidation may hunt duringlegal hunting hours, duringopen hunting seasons fromSept. 1 to May 31. No addi-tional landowner contact isnecessary. More than 230sites across 46 counties are

available through the pro-gram. Bright yellow-greensigns have been placed onWalk-In Access boundaries.

Hunting seasons openSept. 1 for mourning doves,crows, snipe, sora and Vir-ginia rails. Hunting seasonsopen Saturday, Sept. 16, forseveral small game speciesincluding squirrels and rab-bits. The Minnesota pheas-ant hunting season opensSaturday, Oct. 14.

Maps of all Walk-In Ac-cess sites are available elec-tronically atmndnr.gov/walkin. Printedatlases can be found acrossthe 46-county area at DNRlicense agents, DNR wildlifeoffices and county soil andwater conservation districtoffices. Atlases are alsoavailable by calling theDNR Information Center at888-646-6367.

“Walk-In Access worksbecause hunters respect theland and that respect encour-ages landowners to enroll

their land,” Roemhildt said.“We are glad to talk withlandowners who are consid-ering the program,”Roemhildt said. “We hope togrow the program to 30,000acres by 2018.”

Parcels enrolled in theWalk-In Access programmust be at least 40 acres insize with high quality cover.Most land is also enrolled inprivate land conservationprograms. The next enroll-ment period will begin inJanuary 2018.

The Walk-In Access pro-gram began in 2011 and iscurrently funded through2018 with a three-year grantfrom the Natural ResourcesConservation Service of theU.S. Department of Agricul-ture. Other funding sourcescome through a surcharge onnonresident hunting licenses,a one-time appropriationfrom the Minnesota Legisla-ture in 2012, and donationsfrom hunters.

By Dan Mahoney, CEOSibley County FSA

Severe weather events andnatural disasters have alwaysbeen a challenge for those whotheir living through farming.Unfortunately, agriculture re-lated disasters are quite com-mon and this year has proventhat it is unlikely to change. In2017 in Sibley County we haveexperienced high winds, sub-zero temperatures, multiplehail storms, and tornadoes. Theneighboring states have experi-enced severe droughts thathave triggered emergency hay-ing and grazing as well as sec-retarial disaster designation.The USDA Farm Service Ad-ministration administers fourdifferent types of disaster des-ignations. The designation ofcounties as disaster areasmakes emergency loans avail-able to producers affected bythe disaster. Disaster designa-tions also play a role in deter-mining eligibility for other dis-aster assistance programs ad-ministered by USDA.

The first type of disaster des-ignation is a USDA Secretarialdisaster designation. This typemust be requested of the Secre-tary of Agriculture by a gover-nor or the governor's author-ized representative, or by anIndian Tribal Council leader.The Secretarial disaster desig-nation is the most widely usedand this process is the mostcomplicated of the four.

The second type of disaster

designation administeredthrough the Farm Serviceagency is the Presidentialmajor disaster and Presidentialemergency Declaration. Presi-dential major disaster declara-tions, which must be requestedby a governor to the President,are administered through theFederal Emergency Manage-ment Agency (FEMA). A Pres-idential major disaster declara-tion can be made within daysor hours of the initial request.FEMA immediately notifiesFSA of the primary countiesnamed in a Presidential decla-ration.

The third type, FSA Admin-istrator's Physical Loss Notifi-cation (APLN) is for physicallosses only. An example wouldbe the loss or destruction of abuilding destroyed by a torna-do. Livestock related losses areconsidered physical losses. AnAPLN is requested of FSA'sAdministrator by an FSA StateExecutive Director. LocalUSDA staff assist in collectinginformation regarding damageand scope of a weather eventand provide such informationto the State Executive Director.

The last type of disaster des-ignation administered by FSAis a Quarantine designation bythe Secretary under the PlantProtect Act or animal quaran-tine laws. A quarantine desig-nation is requested of the FSADeputy Administrator for FarmPrograms by an FSA SED. Aquarantine designation author-

izes EM loans for productionand physical losses resultingfrom a quarantine.

All four types of designa-tions, Secretarial disaster des-ignations, Presidential disasterdeclarations, APLNs, and quar-antine designations immediate-ly trigger the availability oflow-interest FSA EM loans toeligible producers in all pri-mary and contiguous counties.

Due to the role FSA plays inadministering disaster designa-tions and assistance programsSibley FSA encourages pro-ducers to notify the local officeof damage to buildings, crops,and other agricultural infra-structure. If the damage docu-mented meets qualifications orreaches a predetermined level,our County Emergency Boardwill submit documentation andask for federal disaster assis-tance. For more information onUSDA disaster assistance con-tact your local FSA Office orvisit http://disaster.fsa.usda.gov

USDA is an equal opportuni-ty provider, employer andlender. To file a complaint ofdiscrimination, write: USDA,Office of the Assistant Secre-tary for Civil Rights, Office ofAdjudication, 1400 Independ-ence Ave., SW, Washington,DC 20250-9410 or call (866)632-9992 (Toll-free CustomerService), (800) 877-8339(Local or Federal relay), (866)377-8642 (Relay voice users).
