Sometimes buildingnew just won’t do.

Story on 4A

For some reason, one of usasked how to apologize inGerman. What followed wasa solid five minutes of sevenMinnesotans attempting topronounce the wordentschuldigung.

Repeatedly. Loudly. In arestaurant in Switzerland.

Surrounded by fellowlunchtime patrons, localswho likely decided thisgroup of tourists con-stantly begging each oth-ers’ pardon had sufferedsome sort of concussion enmasse earlier in the day, perhaps over breakfast.

If our three wonderful Swiss hosts were embarrassedby any “ugly American” idiocy displayed over thecourse of our two-week family vacation, they were kindenough not to say anything. Not in English, anyway.

In fact, before I go any further, I must note that ourhosts — Monika, Marcel, and their daughter Marina— were kind, generous and patient beyond measure.(Marina was an exchange student with my in-lawstwo years ago, in case you’re wondering about ourconnection to these lovely folks.)

They opened their home in the beautiful northernvillage of Uhwiesen to us for the opening and closingdays of our trip, and often traveled with us duringthe days in between, acting as our personal tourguides. Their efforts as translators, transit scheduledecipherers, hotel and event reservers, luggage coor-dinators and cultural senseis were invaluable.Monika, Marcel and Marina used their vacation tospend time with us during our vacation.

Without them, who knows what we might havebeen saying to each other at lunch.

My Top 10 Observations about Switzerland1. You think we’ve got cultural clashes in the

United States? Do you gripe about how Americansshould speak English when you see an advertise-ment in Spanish? I tell you what: we’ve got nothingon Switzerland.

Swiss German is the most widely spoken languagethere. It’s a slightly modified dialect of what their neigh-bors speak across their northern border, up in Deutsch-

LAND MINDS, from pg. 2Aland. English is evenwidely understood, theprice many Europeans payto be part of the international business community.

But if you want to make sure your waiter getsyour order right in the sunny southeastern state ofTicino, you’d better know Italian. And if you plan tosuccessfully navigate the shops along Lake Geneva,you may be out of luck without a French-to-Englishdictionary handy.

Far from being a melting pot, Switzerland feelsmore like three entirely different countries allsmushed together. The Swiss Confederation tracesit origin to Aug. 1, 1291 as a small collection ofstates looking to trade freely and consolidatedefenses. It continued to grow over the years to itscurrent 26 states, the last few jumping ship fromFrance in the 19th century.

The Swiss seem united as a country not so muchculturally, but rather politically — both internally,with their direct democracy, and externally, withtheir famed independence.

and nearly every traditional meal in Switzerland

LAND MINDS, from pg. 4Ainvolves large amounts ofit. They have all fourmajor food groups well-covered: cheese with bread, cheese with meat, cheesewith potatoes, and cheese with wine.

4. I’m much more of a beer guy than a wine guy.Considering our proximity to Germany, I expected tofind a great selection of brews wherever we went.Interestingly, most restaurant menus listed just twooptions: one alcoholic beer, and one non-alcoholic.

The wine lists, by contrast, were quite extensive. I can-not comment on any vintage’s flavor, or body, or sugarcontent, or je ne sais quoi because I never sampled any,but I’m told that if you want to drink Swiss wine youpretty much need to travel there. They make a lot ofwine, and they drink a lot of wine — exports are rare.

5. Continuing with the food-and-drink theme, twiceduring our trip I ordered what I would consider to beAmerican cuisine. The first was an erdbeere (straw-berry) milkshake in Zurich, advertised as “American-style.” It was quite tasty, but of a very runny consis-tency that I’d never experienced anywhere in thiscountry before.

The second was a hamburger and pomme frites(french fries) in Lausanne. This was definitely notsomething you’re going to find at any U.S. fast foodjoint. The patty was massive and perfectly cooked,and instead of lettuce and tomatoes was topped withzucchini, eggplant and an exotic mystery sauce. Onedainty dish held two thick-cut slices of bacon as anoptional topping; another contained a side salad andcherry tomato. The fries were tiny matchsticks withplain, old-fashioned ketchup on the side. Surpris-ingly, the one thing missing from the burger? Cheese.

6. If you’re travelling to Switzerland, either packplenty of clothes, bring tiny packets of laundry soap,or save up plenty of Swiss francs for expensive hotellaundry service because one thing you’ll be hard-pressed to find is a laundromat. You’re also not goingto find a washcloth in any hotel, so pack your own.

7. Get a pass and take the train. Sure, driving is funand you’re in control, and you get to leave wheneveryou want, and can go anywhere you want, but you’llprobably go bonkers doing it. City streets are narrow,winding, and filled with people, buses, livestock. Moun-tain roads are endless series of hairpin turns withoutguardrails between you and thousand-foot drops.

Mass transit in Switzerland is spectacular. Trainsconnect practically every city in the country on pre-cise schedules, with clean cars and quiet, smoothrides. Bright yellow Post Buses will take you allthroughout the large cities, and high into remote vil-lages. Ferry boats cross the glassy lengths of manylarge lakes. Scenic trains skirt around and tunnelthrough towering mountains and idyllic valleys.

8. The cultural variety of Switzerland makes you feelsometimes as if you’re in an entirely different country.The geo-political variety of Switzerland makes yousometimes actually be in a different country, whensimply travelling from one city or village to another.For instance, on a rail trip taking us from Zermatt toLocarno, our train had a stop in Domodossola, Italy.

Driving around the countryside near the northern

city of Schaffhausen, which borders the Rhein River,we passed in and out of Germany several times with-out needing to show a single passport. In fact, thenearby German town of Büsingen, pop. 1,450, is onthree square miles of land entirely surrounded bySwitzerland. Technically the residents’ legal tenderis the Euro, but everyone uses Swiss francs. Theirlocal football (a.k.a. soccer) team plays in the SwissFootball League.

9. Americans always try to put on a good fireworksdemonstration for our Fourth of July celebrations, butI’ve got to tell you... I’ve never seen a national celebra-tory fireworks show like I did in the community ofZermatt, Switzerland — at the foot of the Matterhorn— on Aug. 1. They didn’t simply fire a bunch of brightand noisy rockets into the sky. No, they presentedmultiple courses on a series of explosive themes.Absolutely stunning stuff. Words cannot adequatelydescribe, so I’ll stop, other than to say that as a nationthey’ve got about a 500-year head-start on the UnitedStates, so maybe I shouldn’t try to make comparisons.

10. Finally, a quick note about Swiss agriculture.What most caught my eye was the myriad of smallplots, jumbled together and almost integrated withthe many small villages. The mountainous terrain issuch that the thousand-acre fields we’ve grownaccustomed to seeing in Minnesota and Iowa simplyaren’t possible.

So instead you’ll see a few acres of wheat, next to afew acres of alfalfa, next to a few acres of sugarbeets, next to a few acres of grapes, next to a fewacres of apples ... on every hillside and valley, allbutted up against pastures full of bell-ringing dairycows, snaking streams, thick forests, and cobble-stone-street villages.

It’s “old-fashioned,” it’s sustainable, it’s stunninglygorgeous... and, on the surface anyway, it makes themodern agricultural progressiveness we see outsideour windows every day seem a bit ugly, to be honest.

■

One of my first acts as the new managing editor ofThe Land was to disappear for two weeks on thisSwitzerland adventure and dump all of my dutiesand responsibilities upon the shoulders of others,offering them no way to contact me by phone nor e-mail. So a few notes of appreciation are in order.

Kristin Kveno happily agreed to return to TheLand during our current editorial staff transition,perhaps without fully considering what would bethrown her way while I was overseas for two weeks.She put in a ton of hours to get the paper out, and Ithank her for her dedication.

Helping her out were Sarah Johnson (of “Cook-book Corner” fame) and Free Press copy editor JosieBelina. Many thanks to them as well for coming tothe aid of this fine publication.

And of course, the entire Land staff always comestogether, particularly during “crunch times” suchthe busy Farmfest season, to back each other up.When there are fewer hands available, the handswe have always manage to work a little harder forour readers and advertisers.

Next year I’ll be sure not to schedule vacation forearly August. I’m not entirely sure whether anyonereally missed having me around, but if I madethings at all challenging for The Land family thepast few weeks, all I can say is… entschuldigung.

Herman Melville was a pretty goodfiction writer but his 1851 whale of atale — something about a big fish anda peg-legged man named Ahab —was, in fact, based on the true story ofthe American whaling ship Esse that,in 1820, was attacked and sunk by ahuge whale in the south Pacific.

I’m sorry, you thought Melville madeit up? A white whale with GregoryPeck tied to its back sinking a ship?Come now.

Fact is, Melville only stretched theblanket that he got from somebodyelse. That’s often the way it is in fic-tion; whatever you might make up,someone probably has already made happen.

For example, what kind of turkey would attemptto carry a loaded pistol into the Cannon HouseOffice Building on Capitol Hill?

Well, the president-elect of the National Pork Pro-ducers Council, that’s who.

On July 23, Ron Prestage, boss of Prestage Farms’hog and (wait for it) turkey operations, was arrestedby Capitol Hill police as he attempted to enter theHouse office complex with a “loaded 9 mm handgunin his bag.” (Link to supporting material are postedat http://farmandfoodfile.com/in-the-news/.)

Prestage’s alleged unsmooth move, a felony inWashington D.C., was the second time in five days

that someone tried to enter Can-non with a handgun.

On, July 18, Ryan Lee Shucard,the press secretary for Republi-can Rep. Tom Marino (Pa.) —that’s right, a person who workedin the building — was arrestedfor trying to pack a pistol (andclip of nine hollow-point bullets)into the same office. Shucard saidit was an “oversight” on his part.His spending the night in jail,wasn’t.

I am not making this up.Staying on Capitol Hill, the one square mile

of America where fiction and fact are perfectlyinterchangeable, the chairman of the House AgricultureCommittee, Oklahoman Frank Lucas, continues togrouse about the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s“slow” pace in implementing complex rules for theexpand crop insurance program under the 2014 farmbill.

According to reports on the electronic ag newsservice DTN, Lucas “continues to complain thatUSDA is not implementing a provision in the 2014farm bill that would give drought-stricken SouthernPlains farmers a break on their crop insurance.”

What, had the esteemed ag committee chief conve-niently forgotten that he and his House colleaguestook almost three years to pass a two-piece mess of afarm bill that the U.S. Senate stitched back togetherto get the 2012 law in place by January 2014.

Lucas has forgotten; he was there. He’s just mak-ing it up as he goes.

One current House membermight not remember because hewasn’t there — although he was.

Kansan Tim Huelskamp, afarmer and conservative Republi-can congressman from the samewestern Kansas area as Sen. BobDole and current Sen. PatRoberts, went into his Aug. 5 pri-mary election with a challengerbut without the endorsement ofthe Kansas Farm Bureau, a seri-

ous rebuff for any Kansas Republican.The reason, Steve Baccus, president of the KFB,

told Sara Wyant, Agri-Pulse Communcations, on July21 was that Kansas Farm Bureau members “are sim-ply ‘fed up’ with (Huelskamp) failure to get thingsdone in Washington.” (Huelskamp survived the pri-mary challenge, 55-45 percent.)

Most of that failure came courtesy of Speaker ofthe House John Boehner who, also fed up with Huel-skamp’s repeated failure to support his Republicancaucus, stripped him of his seat on the House AgCommittee in 2012. It’s the first time in nearly 100years a western Kansas congressman has not held apost on the committee.

It’s worse than that, adds Wyant. “Baccus saidHuelskamp has zero percent voting record with KFB.Even Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi scored better,at 50 percent.”

Pelosi passes Kansas Farm Bureau muster? Youcan’t make this stuff up.

U.S. Department of Agriculture Minnesota FarmService Agency Executive Director, Debra Crusoe,announced Aug. 11 that Conservation Reserve Pro-gram acres in seven Minnesota counties have beenauthorized for emergency haying and grazing use dueto excessive precipitation that has caused a severeshortage of available forage for livestock producers.

“Additional grazingacres and forage willnow be available tohelp livestock produc-ers recover from thesevere shortage of for-age, particularly insouth-central Min-nesota,” said Crusoe.“This is good news forlivestock producers inthe region, and comesat a very critical timewhen many livestockproducers are facingthe decision of whetheror not to liquidate theirherds.”

Minnesota countiesapproved for CRP emer-gency haying and grazing include: Carver, Kittson, LeSueur, McLeod, Rock, Roseau and Sibley. These coun-ties experienced a 140 percent or greater average pre-cipitation from March through mid-July of 2014 andsustained a 40 percent or greater loss of available feedas a result of the substantial precipitation.

Emergency haying and grazing of CRP may only beconducted on specific, eligible conservation practicesand is limited to 50 percent of the field for haying or75 percent of the field for grazing.

To initiate emergency haying and grazing, produc-ers must contact their local FSA office to apply beforeany haying or grazing begins and producers mustsign a modified conservation plan with the NaturalResources Conservation Service to allow for hayingand grazing practices. Fields having or located nearenvironmentally sensitive areas may have additionalrestrictions placed on haying and grazing activities.Haying or grazing is not allowed within 120 feet of astream or other permanent water body or on acresdevoted to trees.

Emergency haying ends Aug. 31, 2014 and the balesmust be removed from CRP acres by Sept. 15, 2014.Emergency grazing ends Sept. 30, 2014. In additionto emergency CRP haying and grazing authorization,Crusoe reports that Rock County in Minnesotarecently received a Secretarial Disaster Declarationfor heavy precipitation, flooding, and hail. Contigu-ous counties include Murray, Pipestone, and Nobles.Producers in these four designated counties are noweligible to apply for FSA’s emergency loans.

For more information, contact the Minnesota FSAState Office at (651) 602-7712.

CRP emergencyhaying, grazing

Additional grazing acresand forage willnow be avail-able to help live-stock producersrecover from thesevere shortageof forage, par-ticularly insouth-centralMinnesota.

— Debra Crusoe

Checking out of a motel inLemmon, S.D. that opened in2008, I commented to thewoman who was assisting methat they had a lovely lodge.She thanked me and hintedthat some are skeptical. Shesaid, “We once had a womancall from New York who askedif we had any rooms withoutdirt floors.” It was laughable toher co-workers who startedjoking that the stagecoachonly comes through once aday, too.

Funny how we canhave such precon-ceived notions aboutone another. NewYorkers would proba-bly be shocked to learnthat most farmershave enclosed tractorcabs, regularly visitthe dentist, and somehave even traded intheir bibs for Bermuda shorts when theweather gets hot. And to be fair, there areprobably a great number of Midwestern-ers who think the all New York womenare snobs who are afraid to break a nail.

Holley Gerth writes, “It’s so easy tosmack a label on what we don’t under-stand. So convenient to believe theassumptions because it’s a lot less workthan love.”

The most damaging label smackingand name-calling may not be what wecall one another, but what we nameourselves. How many names have wereceived from childhood and beyondthat we’ve super-glued to our souls?Names like fat, loser, ugly, worthless,nobody, stupid, no good, won’t amountto anything, and _________________

(you fill in the blank).The “sticks and stones may

hurt my bones, but nameswill never hurt me” spew is amyth. It may roll off thetongue on the school play-ground, but you’d be hardpressed to find an adult ofany age who doesn’t walkinto a class reunion and havea memory or two of hurtscome to surface from the onewho in today’s culture would

be deemed the school bully.What do you do

with the damagingnames you’ve beencalled and thedestructive namesyou’ve called your-self? You can do oneof two things. You cankeep clinging to thecruel names and staystuck in the hurt andlies, or you can do

what Allison Allen calls, “The GreatExchange.” At a recent women’s confer-ence she encouraged attendees to “Spitthe poison out of the names we’ve calledourselves and what others have calledus. Do the great exchange.” Evict thelies and live out the truth of who youare in Christ.

Middle-daughter Stephanie createsbeautiful shadowboxes that she’s giftedat graduations and weddings to remindpeople who they are. Using their firstor last names, she prints and crafts asheet that contains Bible verses thatspeak of our identity in Jesus. Each let-ter of the given name has a correspon-ding verse that begins with that sameletter. For example: Kate could bespelled out like this:

K: Knitted together by God (Psalm139:13)

A: A new work has begun in me(Philippians 1:6)

T: Temple of God. His Spirit dwells inme (1 Corinthians 3:16)

E: Equipped by God to do His will(Hebrews 13:21)

Even for the craftiest in the midst,that’s easier to put on paper than toput into practice.

If you’ve been a negative name callerof yourself or others, it’s time to call itquits. Be done. Your worth is notmeasured by what you know, whomyou know, what you have accom-plished, or how others perceive you.God made you and loves you and thatis more than enough.

It’s time to call it quits on all the negative name-calling

THE BACK PORCH

By Lenae Bulthuis

The most damaginglabel smacking andname-calling maynot be what we callone another butwhat we name ourselves.

Elegance and beauty are hallmarksof Iris. I call them our Midwestorchids. In Greek mythology, Iris wasa personification of a rainbow andassociated with a goddess. The iris ofthe eye is so named because of themany colors reflected in the rainbow.The word iridescence is derived from

iris and it seems every gardener has orwants to have this perennial. Despiteits divine origins, it’s hardy, reliableand easy to grow.

Most iris flower in early summer andsome newer varieties of beardedhybrids are remontant, which meansthey flower again later in the summer.

The creeping rhi-zomes are thick-ened stems fromwhich the rootsgrow. The rhizomeslike to have a bit ofexposure to the sunso plant them withtheir tops justunder the soil andthey will be happy.

Iris care:• Divide every

three or four yearsand replant singlerhizomes discardingany that are diseased orshow root rot symp-toms.

• Cut the floweringstalk off after it hasbloomed. Cut the leavesoff to a few inches fromthe ground when divid-ing into new clumps.

• Avoid high nitrogenfertilizers which pro-duce quick, soft growththat invites disease.

• Bonemeal is a goodfertilizer to use.

• August is a goodtime to plant new irisand divide and replantexisting clumps. Groupthree rhizomes of one variety in aplanting.

I’ve had many gardeners tell me theiriris change colors after a few years. Ican say that the experts (those whoknow all about iris because they havegrown and experimented with themover a long period of time) claim this isimpossible.

A division of blue iris rhizome willproduce a blue flower and so on withwhite, purple and other colors. Whathappens when a border of iris isplanted to equal numbers of yellow,white and blue Iris and in a few years

the border is mostlywhite? The white vari-ety was more prolificand simply crowded outthe other varieties.

Iris rhizomes alwaysproduce true to color,but seedling iris do not.If seed pods are allowedto form and ripen,seedlings may spring upin the bed causing acolor change.

Another commonquestion about iris cul-ture is, “Should I cut theleaves back within a fewinches of the groundafter the plants havefinished blooming?” I

have done this and the plants quicklysent up new foliage. Some iris growers,however, discourage that practice. Theybelieve it only forces the rhizome towork harder to replace the lost foliage.

The iris pictured above is a beardedGerman variety called “Stepping Out.”In addition to the lovely blue and whiteblossom it has great spikey leaves thatmake an interesting contrast withother plants.

Contrary to popular belief an Iris flower will not change col-ors during it’s life cycle.

Iris rhizomesalways producetrue to color butseedling iris donot. If seedpods areallowed toform and ripen,seedlings mayspring up in thebed causing acolor change.

In the front of the new cookbook “Garden ofEatin’” from St. John’s Lutheran Church in Hast-ings Minn., Pastor Jon Zimpelmann calls the book“an endless supply of enjoyment.” What a great wayto describe a good cookbook. Not only is it full of fla-vors and creativity and ingenuity and love; it alsoprovides limitless inspiration for your mind and abalm for your weary soul on those days when noth-ing seems to go right. Food makes us happy, andPastor Zimpelmann says that’s just fine by God.

If you can’t find inspiration in the 600-plushometown recipes in this cookbook, you’ll not findit anywhere. Here are some samples from thishigh-qualty collection.

■

It’s not necessary to deep-fry jalapeno poppers to getthose great creamy-spicy-crunchy sensations you love.This recipe calls for rolling them in crisp pankobread crumbs and then baking them to molten-cheesedeliciousness.Baked Jalapeno PoppersSubmitted by Naomi Senter

12 fresh jalapeno peppers, halved lengthwise,stems and seeds removed

6 ounces cream cheese, softened1 1⁄2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese1⁄2 teaspoon cumin1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste2 eggs2 tablespoons milk1 cup panko crumbs1⁄2 cup flourIn a bowl, cream together cream cheese, Monterey

Jack, cumin and cayenne. In a small bowl, beat eggs

and milk. Put panko crumbs and flour each in sepa-rate shallow dishes and season with salt and pepper.Spread 1 tablespoon of cheese mixture into the mid-dle of each jalapeno half. One at a time, dredge inflour, dip into the egg mixture, and dredge in pankocrumbs. Place coated peppers, cut side up, on agreased baking sheet and bake about 30 minutes at350 F or until filling is runny.

■

Warm, spiced nuts are one of life’s greatest pleas-ures. Do yourself a “flavor” and make some. This recipeuses almonds, but other nuts (such as cashews, wal-nuts or pecans) would be delectable as well.Spicy AlmondsSubmitted by Miranda Sieh

3 tablespoons canola oil2 cups whole, blanched almonds1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar1 1⁄2 teaspoons kosher salt1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon red pepper flakesHeat the oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan over

medium-high heat. Add the almonds and sprinkle thehalf-cup of sugar over them. Saute until the almondsbecome golden brown and the sugar caramelizes.Remove the almonds from the pan and toss in a bowlwith the salt, cumin, pepper flakes and the remaining1 tablespoon sugar. Serve warm or at room tempera-ture. Store in an airtight container.

You’ve had twice-baked potatoes before, but not likethese monsters. These babies are loaded with sausage,ham, cheese and sour cream so stand back. In fact, youdon’t even need an entrée. Add a fresh salad and somefruit and you’ve got yourself a prize-winning meal.Hearty Twice-Baked PotatoesSubmitted by Brian and Kristin Krueger

8 large baking potatoes1⁄2 pound bulk pork sausage1⁄4 cup butter or margarine, softened1 1⁄2 cups fully cooked ham, diced2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream1⁄2 cup Italian dressingScrub and pierce potatoes. Bake at 400 F for 40-60

minutes or microwave, uncovered, on high for 12-14minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cookthe sausage over medium heat until no longer pink;drain.

When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut in halflengthwise; scoop out pulp, leaving a 1⁄4-inch shell. In alarge mixing bowl, mash the pulp with butter. Stir inthe sausage, ham, cheese, bacon, sour cream and Italiandressing. Spoon into potato shells. Place on twoungreased baking sheets. Bake at 400 F for 30 minutesor until golden brown. Yields 16 servings. Note: This isso hearty, it can be used as a meal in itself.

I needed to pull together a quick take-and-bake sup-per last weekend so this recipe for Simple SausageLasagna was a godsend. Without the need to boil thenoodles, the prep time and effort were considerablydiminished. I used the last of the homemade spaghettisauce we froze last summer, but a good quality store-bought sauce works fine, too. This lasagna was a littleon the bland side, but still rated four out of four starsfrom the Johnson clan.Simple Sausage LasagnaSubmitted by Jeanne Schumann

No-boil lasagnaa hit with theentire family

Hard to believe, but summer vacation from school isalmost over. It's important that children keep readingand doing math during the summer so they do notforget what they learned in school. Cooking with chil-dren is a fun way for children to practice reading andmath. Give these a try.

PreschoolLetter recognition: Have children look at the foods in

the cupboard and find a food that starts with a certainletter. For example, show children three varieties ofsoup. Have them find tomato soup.It starts with a "t".

Counting: Children can count the number of cups offlour that go into a pancake batter or count the num-ber of times they stir a pancake batter.

Early ElementaryPractice alphabetical order by finding a recipe in

the index of a cookbook.Read and prepare a simplerecipe.If a recipe calls for 1 cup of an ingredient, showchildren how two 1⁄2 cups are the same as 1 cup. Findand read books about food.

By RICHARD SIEMERSThe Land Correspondent

Gary and Marj Becker had their eyeon four acres of land in the middle ofMarshall. It was what remained ofthe Neuse farm. Mr. and Mrs. Neusesold the land around them for devel-opment, but continued to live on thebuilding site, which had a blockchicken house and a wooden barnalong with the house. Even after herhusband’s death, Mrs. Neuse contin-ued to make it her home until shemoved to be closer to family in 2003.

When it came up for sale, the Beck-ers purchased it.

“And then we said, Now what are wegoing to do?” said Marj Becker.

They had not intended to live there,but subdividing it into lots did notseem to work.

“It took on a life of its own when wesaw the barn,” she said, “and Garyneeded a shop.”

The Beckers owned Becker Iron andMetal and were anticipating retire-ment. Gary was doing woodworking

in a small workshop in a one-cargarage, rather cramped for buildingcabinets and furniture and the thingshe liked to do.

One thought led to another with theresult that they sold the Neuse houseand had it moved off, built a new

house, turned the chicken house into apotting shed, and went to work on thebarn.

“There are four acres, so we thoughtleaving the barn wouldn’t be a prob-lem,” Marj said.

Many of the homeowners aroundtheir property are retired farmers, sothey were happy to see the barn stay,according to Gary.

“I knew what thepurpose was going tobe, so we set it up withthat purpose in mind,”Gary said.

That purpose was tomake it his woodwork-ing shop. What theydidn’t know was whata great challenge it would be.

“When the cows walked out for thelast time, the Neuse family just shutthe doors,” Marj said. “There was stillhay in the hayloft.”

Unused, the building began to deteri-orate. It sat on an old stone founda-tion. The roof of the lean-to had fallenin and a tree was growing up inside.

They hired Aaron Barritt of BarnDoctors, Inc. to do the restoration. Theidea was to save as much of the oldbuilding as possible, which did notturn out to be much.

“The entire barn was actuallyrebuilt,” Gary said. “It has new sidingall the way around.”

Barritt’s crew started in Novemberof 2004, and fortunately it was an openwinter. They jacked up the barn, tookout the stones and boulders, andreplaced them with a concrete founda-tion. The exterior was returned to its

original look, with new siding, arestored (but inoperable) loft door, andother doors built to copy the originals.Barritt also found matches for theoriginal hardware.

The Beckers made one exception tothe original. They put on a metal roofbecause they did not want to be reroof-ing.

The interior wasredone with an office,and an expansive shopwhere Gary hasplenty of room towork. He even usedwood from the oldstanchions and beamsto make a table for thehouse. The rebuilt

lean-to houses his lumber.In 2009, Friends of Minnesota Barns,

an organization that encourages barnpreservation, chose the Beckers’ barnas Runner-Up for Barn of the Year inthe Non-Farm Use Category.

It was the barn that brought theBeckers to this property that they hadnot intended to live on.

“We like what we got,” Gary added.The same year that the Becker barn

was named Runner-Up by Friends ofMinnesota Barns, the organizationawarded its top recognition to the barnon the acreage of Dave and MarlyceLogan. Sitting on a hill back fromHighway 75 north of Pipestone, the“barn with the star” is an area land-mark. Dave Logan has heard peopleuse it in giving directions.

The Logans took possession of theproperty in January 2008. The barn

Gary Becker of Marshall, Minn., just wanted a woodworking shop; he ended up with a beautifully restored barn.

See BARN AGAIN, pg. 15A

BARN AGAIN, from pg. 14Abecame their first major project. Dave said the previ-ous owners had used the barn as a garage.They had installed two white fiberglassoverhead garage doors to replace the barndoors. The building was covered with metalsiding and had asphalt shingles.

“We decided we were going to restore it (toits original look),” Dave said.

He hired Barn Doctors to do the work.When they took off the metal, the woodensiding underneath was rotting and therestoration became a major project. After somestraightening, the barn received all new siding, win-dows and wooden barn shingles. The garage doorswere replaced with sliding barn doors. The cupolaswere in good shape and just needed repainting.

“The only thing that’s not authentic is the woodwindows were replaced with vinyl clad windows,”

Dave said.They also added three exterior doors into

the horse bays. Other than that, the barnlooks as it did after being rebuilt following afire in 1931. Newspaper photos provided theneeded information.

The interior is open for storage. The horsebays are still there, but the stanchions andother interior features had been removedyears before. The lean-to still is used as shel-

ter for two horses.The story that Logan has heard about the big

white star is that the owner who built the barn hadsome relationship with North Star Insurance, so hehad it painted there.

Since there is no financial assistancefor barn restoration in Minnesota, oneneeds to be willing and able to make asubstantial financial investment. Andit’s not just the initial investment.

“You have to be willing to keep it innice shape if you invest that muchmoney,” Dave said.

He has already had Barritt backonce, to do some straightening after theJuly 2011 storm shifted the building,and the south and west side shouldprobably be painted again, he said.

The 2011 storm also knocked downmany trees, so in a way it is easier tosee the “star barn” from the highway. Itdoes attract attention. The Loganshave been surprised to find a photo oftheir barn entered in a county fair, andhe once saw it in the King of Trailsmagazine, which features sites and

cities along U.S. Highway 75.While many barns are disappearing from the

countryside, these two couples, with the help ofBarn Doctors, Inc., have been willing and able toinvest the money to restore two historic structures,the Logan barn built in 1931, and the Becker barnbuilt in the early 1900s.

Beckers could have just as easily put up a newbuilding for Gary’s woodworking shop, but theyknew it wouldn’t be the same.

“You can build yourself something, but you won’tget the character of a barn,” Marj said. ❖

Dave Logan of Pipestone, Minn., had his barn restored to look as it did in 1931, other than a few modern upgrades.

We all love our pets, and our attachment to themvaries from one individual to another. In cases ofthe infirm or elderly, the attachment to a pet may bemuch more intense. Individuals with memory lossmay not understand why they have to move toassisted living, or in with a relative, let alone anyproblems that might come with bringing Fido along.

Caregivers may swing from one extreme toanother in their own emotions. The part-time care-giver who can tolerate animals during short-termvisits may balk at full-time pet and person caregiv-ing.

Although it is essential to acknowledge how youfeel about animal caretaking, it may be best to keepit to yourself until you explore options. “Preparing”a family member to give up a pet may take manyweeks (or longer). There is emotional strain on theloved one and caregiver during this process, as wellas on the animal.People and things change

The once hard-nosed parent who made the deci-sion to give up a child’s beloved pet may now be theone who is attached. It may stun a caregiver to findthat the parent now exhibits the same sense of losswhen approached with having their pet taken away.Caregivers in this type of situation would benefit bycounseling to find closure in making a decision thatdoes not access any hidden feelings from the past.Keeping or giving up a pet with such an event color-ing the situation will add to stress for everyone inthe long haul.

As we age and/or our health changes, our sense ofconnection to people, places, and furry creatures mayenhance our connections.Where there’s a wag, there’s a way

In the case of dogs and cats, an option for individu-als who may be forced to surrender the pet is to haveit qualified as a therapy animal. This is differentthan a “work dog,” which can help perform tasks.

Local humane societies offer classes in pet therapy.The animal must pass certain tests for social behav-ior. If Rover is able to complete the program success-fully, it becomes a gold star on his “doggie resume.”This may make facilities more agreeable to allowingMom to bring him in as a roommate.

Find out from the individual running the programif any precedents have been set that parallel yourcircumstances. Any reputable behavioral trainingwill reassure family that the pet can be a member ofthe household (if that is the only objection). Assistedliving centers, nursing homes, or hospice may haveslightly different rules. Hospice can be the mostaccommodating when it comes to end of life needsbeing met. Long-term care facilities generally haveone or two pets (often cats) wandering around asunofficial therapists.

Bringing in a custom made, homegrown, duly dep-utized four legged therapist may be a surprise thatis welcomed.

Even if it is not, a serious talk with the adminis-trator and healthcare provider of your loved one maychange the decision. This is especially true if youcontribute to pet upkeep by hiring someone who canbe relied upon to manage the pet at the facility.Things to consider

When the health of the loved one is at stake bykeeping a pet, a serious discussion with the physi-cian is in order. Make sure the doctor understands

the level of emotional attachment involved.Studies have shown that individuals who own pets

lead markedly better lives. The unconditional loveand companionship from any pet boosts self-esteemand the outlook on life. These in turn help theimmune system, decrease stressors, and ultimatelyimprove the quality of life and health. A relaxed,happy “patient” is much easier to care for than onethat is down in the dumps.

The sense of appreciation expands at an uncon-scious level when we accept the pet as an extensionof the person we are caring for.Opt for Options

Depending on funds, those of us who are still learn-ing to revel in caring for a pet can consider hiring aservice to assist us. The professional pet caretakermay be agreeable to taking Grandma along for thewalk with the dog. As long as we have researched thecompany, our trust and stress levels are beingaddressed.

Family members may be willing to rotate sched-ules in helping to take care of the pet, for walks, lit-ter box changes, and other needs. This takes awayprimary caregiver stress, and brings family closertogether.

Creativity in entertaining options should be at thetop of the list. Again, long-term consequences ofkeeping or giving up a pet should be evaluated regu-larly. Any success is cause for celebration, and makeschallenges that much easier to handle.

When all is said and done, your loved one’s crea-ture will be a reminder of a shared joy. Animals areoften underrated in terms of memory and intellect.Pets do remember. A pet that is not only “allowed” tostay with its owner, but also welcomed into the newenvironment bears a special feeling toward thosewho have included it. Caregivers, too, have longmemories, and must strive to make those memorieshappy ones.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National AnimalHealth Monitoring System in the next few weeks willlaunch Bison 2014, the first-ever national study of theU.S. ranched-bison industry. This initiative is intendedto increase knowledge and understanding about thecharacteristics, health and management practices, andchallenges facing bison operations in the United States.

To collect the data for the study, the USDA’s NationalAgricultural Statistics Service will send all U.S.ranched bison producers a questionnaire and materialsdescribing the study. Producers are asked to completeand return the questionnaire within two weeks.

Bison 2014 is being conducted as a result of discus-sions between the USDA’s Animal and Plant HealthInspection Service and representatives of the U.S.bison industry, including the National Bison Associa-tion. NAHMS obtained input from bison producersand other industry stakeholders to define the mostcritical information needs of the industry; this inputwas used to develop the Bison 2014 study objectives:

• Provide a baseline description of the U.S. bisonindustry, including basic characteristics of opera-tions, such as inventory, size, and type.

• Describe current U.S. ranched-bison industry pro-duction practices and challenges, including identifi-cation, confinement and handling, animal care, anddisease testing.

• Describe health management and biosecuritypractices important for the productivity and healthof ranched bison.

• Describe producer-reported occurrence of selecthealth problems and evaluate potentially associatedrisk factors.

The Bison 2014 study will be conducted by NAHMSunder its designation as a statistical unit under theConfidential Information Protection and StatisticalEfficiency Act. By law, all information collected duringthe Bison 2014 study will be used for statistical pur-poses only and will be treated as confidential in accor-dance with CIPSEA guidelines. Bison 2014 resultswill be presented only in an aggregate manner.

USDA to launchnational study ofranched-bison industry

By RICHARD SIEMERSThe Land Correspondent

Old barns dot the countryside with a derelictsplendor that cannot be equaled by contemporaryfarm buildings. Many we have watched through theyears as they slowly collapsed.

Barn Doctors, Inc. of Fulda, Minn., is in the busi-ness of seeing that old barns don’t disappear andreturning them to their original splendor.

“It’s all I’ve ever done,” said Aaron Barritt of hiswork in restoring buildings.

He purchased the business from his parents 10years ago. While he does repair pole sheds and canwork on other buildings, the business is called BarnDoctors because 85 percent of his work is restoringbarns.

“We don’t build any new,” he said, though when heis done some barns are basically new buildings builton the original frame, and even some of that mayhave been replaced.

Barritt and his crews cover all of Minnesota, NorthDakota, South Dakota, part of Wisconsin and “a lotof Iowa.” He is often working in Iowa because theIowa Barn Foundation has a grant program that willpay a portion of the cost when certain criteria aremet. He worked on a couple in South Dakota that thestate historical society helped pay for.

In Minnesota, you have to be willing to invest yourown money.

“It’s amazing the young people that want to savethem anymore, people in their 30s,” he said. “I’m bid-ding one now for a young woman who is going tomake it into a place for weddings and stuff.”

Occasionally Barritt works on a barn that still hasan agricultural use, but not often.

“People’s reasons for fixing them up are all differ-ent,” he said. “A lot of it is the family had the farm,granddad built the barn, some sentimental reason.We did one over by Dell Rapids, S.D. where the manwas just buying the place and was going to build anew house, but he wanted to keep the look of thebarn on the place.”

He has restored barns to be used as gatheringplaces, a woodworking shop and a basketball court.

A complete restoration usually starts with jackingup the building and putting in a new foundation, hesaid, unless the building is leaning so much it must

first be straightened. Once it is stable, they worktheir way up with new siding, windows, doors andnew roof. One they had to replace the whole hayloftwith new beams and floors.

While Barn Doctors can fix most anything, occa-sionally Barritt determines it is just not worth it.

“I have one right now, I hate to call the owner andtell her there’s no way you can fix this. It would beeasier to tear it down and build an identical one.”

Rot is usually the culprit that makes a barn notworth restoring. Just about any other conditionBarritt can deal with.

He can also restore it to its original look. Gary andMarj Becker of Marshall praised Barritt’s ability tomatch original siding and hardware. He will builddoors and exterior features to match the original.

Friends of Minnesota Barns is an organizationthat encourages restoration and assists with infor-mation, and they give out Barn of the Year awards.In 2009, two barns that Barritt had restoredreceived Barn of the Year and runner-up in the Non-Farm Use Category.

When asked if there is a sense of satisfaction inseeing a dilapidated barn restored to new condition,Barritt answers with a simple, “Yup.” But you cantell its pride like that of a parent whose child hasgrown to be a successful adult.

Barritt’s crew once went way out of its territory toCape Girardeau, Mo. An elderly man, who got Bar-ritt’s name from the Iowa Barn Foundation, calledand begged him to come down and repair a barnbuilt in 1850 off of which the wind had ripped theroof.

“We completely redid the barn,” Barritt said.He went the extra mile and got cypress siding

from Kentucky, and even built a cupola.“He couldn’t believe it was his barn,” Barritt said.

“He had tears in his eyes.”Barn Doctors does not need to go that far for work,

at least not anytime soon. Barritt is running threecrews this summer, and still won’t get caught up.

“I’ve probably got 75 barns to do right now,” hesaid.

Bringing new life to barns that need a little help

Richard Siemers

Aaron Barritt says he won’t run out of barn restorationjobs any time soon.

Internal parasites in cattle — often called worms —eat away at the performance and marbling potentialin fed cattle, even when they’re dewormed properly atarrival. That’s according to research at Iowa StateUniversity, which also suggests deworming stockers orpreconditioned calves as a “best management”approach.The research

In one trial, 43 steers from Southeastern statesvarying in age and weight were shipped to a south-west Iowa feedyard, where fecal samples guided adivision of cattle into high (HI) and low (LO) parasiteburdens. All were treated with the recommended doseof eprinomectin to control what were 92 percentroundworms (strongyles).

“These parasites live in the digestive tracts, wherethey cause damage to the stomach, steal nutrients andproduce a loss in digestive ability,” said ISU Extensionlead researcher Chris Clark.

After 24 days, another fecal exam showed all cattlewere free of parasites, but effects of the initial parasiteburden were still visible, he noted.

They were all gaining at the same rate by then, butthe HI group, lighter on arrival and set back in thefirst weeks, never caught up. They required more dayson feed than the LO group and the HI steers tended tohave lower marbling scores, dressing percentages,internal fat and backfat at harvest. Being treated for

clinical disease more times, the HI side also incurredhigher health costs.Protect your profits

Even a relatively small research trial serves to pointout how easily profitability can be decreased, and rein-forces the value of effective internal parasite controlstarting months before the cattle go into a feedyard.

Clark said the Southeast region, source of calves inthe study, is known for high internal parasite riskbecause of long grazing seasons and a warm, humid cli-mate. Still, he says, grazing cattle across the UnitedStates are at risk of infection from many different par-asites and producers should have a strategic deworm-ing plan that fits their operation.

Patrick Gunn, ISU Extension cow-calf specialist, saidtiming is the first step in strategy.

Producers often deworm cattle before pasture turnoutand again when they come off grass, said Gunn. Butuntil the last year or two, most of the deworming agentsavailable on the market were only effective for approxi-mately 30 days. That means the effectiveness of thedeworming agents often wear off just as cattle beginpicking up a significant parasite load.

He recommended waiting to deworm until after cat-tle have been on grass for six to eight weeks, or usingone of the recently developed extended-releasedewormers. Producers in warmer climates should also

look into more aggressive deworming plans with a mid-season option if they graze cattle for longer seasons.

Pasture health and rotational grazing play a role ineffective parasite management, Gunn explained. Over-grazed pastures tend to result in higher parasite loadsfor cattle, so good pasture management can lead tohealthier cattle.Impacts in the industry

Another recent study by Clark and Gunn looked atthe impact of not deworming Angus stocker heifersupon arrival at the feedlot after all cattle were treatedin the middle of their grazing period with an extended-release deworming agent.

The results? Cattle that were effectively managed toreduce or eliminate internal parasites while grazingdid not require deworming at the feedyard. “We didn’tnote a difference in feedlot performance or carcassmerit,” Gunn said.

“I think the broader impact of this is just reinforcingthat producers need to have best management prac-tices in place to minimize parasite load,” he said. “Forthe feedlot producers, they want to sell a heavier car-cass; and the cow-calf producers want to send a heaviercalf to the feedyard. On both ends of the sector, it wouldbenefit producers to control parasites to maximizeweight gain through all phases of the production cycle.”

Minnesota farmers saw 6.3 days suitable for field-work across the state, allowing steady progress to bemade on small grain harvest for the week endingAug. 10, according to the U.S. Department of Agricul-ture National Agricultural Statistics Service. Inspite of the heavy precipitation received earlier inthe season, most Minnesota farmers would like tosee their row crops receive additional moisture.Some farmers have started to spray for aphids.

Topsoil moisture supplies were rated 5 percentvery short, 31 percent short, 61 percent adequate,and 3 percent surplus. Subsoil moisture supplieswere rated 2 percent very short, 18 percent short, 76percent adequate, and 4 percent surplus.

Ninety-four percent of the corn crop was at or beyondthe silking stage, up 9 points from the previous week,with 70 percent in good to excellent condition. Ninety-four percent of the soybean crop has reached the bloom-ing stage with 74 percent of the soybean acres settingpods, up 19 points from the previous week. Soybeanconditions rated 65 percent good to excellent. Eighty-one percent of the Spring wheat crop was turning coloror beyond, with six percent of the crop harvested. Fifty-four percent of the Spring wheat crop was in good toexcellent condition. Ninety-three percent of the oat cropwas turning color or beyond. At 54 percent complete,the oat harvest is the only Minnesota crop ahead ofaverage. Oat conditions decreased to 62 percent good toexcellent. Dry edible beans progressed to 92 percent ator beyond the blooming stage, with 69 percent settingpods. Dry edible bean condition was unchanged fromlast week with 53 percent of the crop in good to excel-lent condition. Sugarbeet conditions increased slightlyfrom last week and now stand at 65 percent in good toexcellent condition. Sunflower conditions held steadyat 38 percent rated good to excellent.

The second and third cuttings of alfalfa hay were86 and 28 percent complete, respectively, bothbehind the five-year average. All hay conditionsdecreased slightly to 69 percent good to excellent.Pasture conditions decreased to 64 percent good toexcellent.

Harvest this fall has the potentialto be rather chaotic.

Railcars for moving grain continueto be practically non-existent formany elevators. Propane for dryinggrain could be an issue since the pri-mary pipeline for moving propaneinto Minnesota is moving crude oil.And there is still a large amount of2013 crop still in storage, both atcountry elevators and on farms.

One business not the least bit sti-fled, however, is the sale of new grainbins.

Thanks to stronger corn and soy-bean prices the past four years, thisindustry kept chalking up new salesrecords each year. Even with $3 corn,it apparently isn’t slowing down — infact that’s a major motivator: Farm-ers will store rather than sell.

Ross Christianson at the Westeelexhibit at the recent Farmfest wasn’t

bashful about business.“Yes, this business is still booming,”

he said. “We’re having a record-break-ing year, smashing all of our previoussales. It seems everybody and theirbrother needs a bin.”

Westeel manufactures in Manitoba,Canada, with a major warehouse inFargo, N.D. Christianson, who lives atLake Park, Minn., covers Montana, theDakotas, Minnesota and Wisconsin.Theyalso sell into Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas,Missouri and the eastern Cornbelt.

Asked Aug. 7 how long it would take toget a bin delivered and erected, Chris-tianson said it would be mid-October atthe earliest. Their display bin at Farm-fest was a 3007, meaning 30 foot in diam-eter and seven tiers high with a 16,000-bushel capacity and aeration floor.

BIN BOOM, from pg. 22Arently is a 3606, a 25,000-bushel struc-ture, but that is rapidly becoming thesmallest bin these days. “(Becoming)much more common is the 4809, a56,000-bushel bin,” said Christianson.Once the concrete is poured, he saidhis best dealers with a six-man crewcan get a bin up in 2 1⁄2 to 3 days.

The biggest farm bin so far for Westeelwas a 690,000-bushel monstrosity erectedon a North Dakota farm. Their goal is tosoon be building 1-million-bushels binsfor farm and commercial use.

Normal bin warranties are one-year,said Christianson, “but we don’t leaveour customers behind. If they comewith a problem that relates to engi-neering or such, we’ve covered bins upto 7-8 years old.”

A perforated floor is generally stan-dard with every bin sale anymore. It’sa free-standing floor. Westeel sourcestheir steel from different manufactur-ers depending upon the price of steeland delivery schedules.

Derrick Rauen of V. R. Constructionin Goodwin, S.D., explained the binboom this way: “Your typical farmerisn’t running to the elevator duringharvest. They don’t want to wait

behind a bunch of semis when they’retrying to pull out their crop.”Concrete bunkers booming, too

Also cashing in on the growing farmstorage boom is Hanson Silos of LakeLillian, Minn. Though they still erect afew vertical silos, their particular prod-uct is concrete bunkers with structuresup to 12-feet tall and almost any width.

“Farmers want to control their owndestiny as much as possible,” saidHanson silos president Matt Hanson.“This is particularly true as we growinto this new generation of agricul-ture. So when corn drops to threebucks and they don’t want to sell, theyshouldn’t have to. They should storeand hold for a better market.”

That’s why flat storage in concretebunkers is catching the favor of moreand more growers, according to Han-son. “We can get them into big storage

for easy money — about 50 cents abushel,” he explained, indicating thatso far this year the market has beencrazy.

He said the beauty of precast is thatit is fast. “We can get a new structuredelivered and in place in a matter ofjust a few weeks.”

They sell across the Dakotas, Min-nesota, Iowa, Missouri and intoNebraska and Kansas, and apparentlyare selling fast. “If anyone is looking forwork,” said Hanson, “call me because Ican use more crews right now.”

Something new in the Hanson lineupis a strange-looking machine calledSilo Pack, for use in bunker storage oneither corn silage or haylage. It’s a 3-

point hydraulic hookup for big trac-tors that conveniently packs silage.

“As dairy costs keep going up, espe-cially feed inputs,” Hanson said, “theopportunity costs of cutting for silageversus selling the grain simply meanstaking better care of that forage prod-uct. So the combination of bunker stor-age and this Silo Packer gives you theopportunity for a better feed. The moreyou can pack, the better; this machinelets you do 50 lbs. per square inch.”

Also new with Hanson Silo areheader trailers with some specialengineering to handle the increas-ingly heavy combine heads with“stalk chompers.”

The biggest concrete corn bunker sofar for Hanson Silo was a 3-million-bushel structure at Minnesota Falls,with 8-foot-high concrete panels and a550-foot diameter.

Local Corn and Soybean Price Index

Grain prices are effective cash close on August 12. The price index chart compares an average of most recently reported local cash prices with the same average for a year ago.*Cash grain price change represents a two-week period.

Grain AnglesLand rentalrisks/inputs

Grain producers have had tremendous success overthe last several years during the period of high com-modity prices. In conjunction, cash rental rates hadclimbed to record highs leading up to 2014; however,we’re now looking the lowest corn prices in nearly fouryears. Corn prices have decreased by almost 30 percentin just the last three months. Over-all, the Midwest is having near per-fect weather conditions which isfueling expectations of a bumpercrop come harvest time, meaningthat we’re probably looking at fur-ther price deterioration as yieldestimates increase.

When farmers look at thesecommodity price outlooks they’requickly realizing they must fig-ure out how to reducerisks/inputs associated fromrenting land and/or reduce thecost or price of the rented farm-land. A recent report from the Kansas City Fedshowed that overall rental rates only dropped 2 per-cent from 2013 to 2014; however that was still thefirst decrease since 1999. With todays cash bids inthe mid-to-low $3 range many producers’ 2014 cashflow budgets are being stressed, especially for thosethat haven’t previously locked in better prices.

With low expectations for prices to increase, farmoperators should assess the risk potential of high dollarland rental rates before finalizing a 2015 land rentalrate on new or existing farm land. It’s important to use:

• realistic projected crop yields and prices • average costs of production for the farm operation,

including machinery and facility overhead expenses • desired return to the farm operator’s labor and

Grain OutlookWeather good for

corn growthThe following market analysis is for the week end-

ing Aug. 8.CORN — Corn consolidated this week in the run-up

to the Aug. 12 U.S. Department of Agriculture crop pro-duction report. The contract low in the December con-tract at $3.61 was tested and held.Weather around the United Stateswas mostly favorable for develop-ment, although parts of Minnesotacould use a shower to finish thecrop. Temperatures have remainedmild and not been a threat.

So, how high will the USDAraise the corn yield on theAugust crop report? Record cropstend to get bigger on subsequentcrop reports. The trade is alreadyanticipating a yield of 170.1bushels per acre on the first sur-vey-based estimate of the year,up from the record 165.3 BPA July forecast. Thebiggest increase in corn yield from the July to theAugust report since 1993 was 6.6 BPA in 2008. If theUSDA publishes a number less than 170 BPA, thetrade may not take it at face value, instead believingthe number will increase on later reports. If the num-ber is larger, it would be considered bearish. Theaverage expectation for the 2014/2015 corn crop is14.253 billion bushels versus the July projection of13.860 billion bushels. The average estimate for2014/2015 carryout is 2.005 billion bushels, 204 mil-lion bushels higher than the July outlook. The com-mercial short in corn, reflecting hedges by elevatorsand processors, is smaller than normal, especiallyconsidering the crop size. This likely gives credencethat grower selling will lend pressure through har-

Livestock AnglesFrom bull

to bear marketThe livestock markets appear to be going through a

transformation from bull markets to bear markets aswe moved into the first week of August. The questionarises is this the real turn in these markets or only afalse turn as previously experienced in the last sev-eral months. Time we answer this question.

As for the cattle market, theRussian boycott of agriculturalproducts, which included beef,has sent the cattle futures tum-bling after that announcement.This rapid decent in the futuresprices resulted in two consecutivedays of limit losses to end theweek on Aug. 7. Many speculatorsand commodity funds were liqui-dating long positions as technicalsignals turned from positive tonegative. This entire event drewthe attention of many fundamen-tal traders to realize that thealready weak demand may weaken even further as aresult of the boycott by Russia. On top of this the beefcutouts began to relinquish some of their recentgains under moderate to slow product movement.

The cash cattle market by the end of the week end-ing Aug. 7 was slipping further after starting theweek with a weak undertone. A concern has surfacedregarding the tonnage of beef that is currently beingproduced as weights have continued to move higher.This brings the idea that cattle have been held backbecause of the drop in grain prices and that fact thatnumbers have been declining forcing the packer toaggressively bid on cattle each week. At this juncturecattle feeders should reassess their price protectionand approach the market with the idea of protection

NYSTROMS, from pg. 25Avest. Looking at the size of theforthcoming crop, rally attemptsare likely to be limited and short-lived.

On the geopolitical front this week, Russian Pres-ident Putin banned “certain agricultural products,raw materials and foodstuffs” from the UnitedStates and other countries sanctioning Russia forone year. This is in retaliation for the United Statesimposing sanctions on Russia for their actionsrelated to Ukraine. Included in the ban were allpoultry, beef, pork, fruits and vegetables and dairyproducts. Russia accounted for 8 percent of U.S.agricultural exports in 2013, but Russia is the sec-ond largest importer of U.S. poultry. Year to date,Russia imported 7 percent of U.S. ag exports. Howthis will affect U.S. agriculture in the long run isuncertain. South America will likely become a big-ger source of Russian imports and Brazil isexpected to import more Russian wheat at theexpense of U.S. wheat.

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange is seekinginput from the public through Aug. 19 on whetherto reduce electronic trading hours for livestock.They’re also currently in the process of decidingwhether to make changes to the lean hog contract.This includes adding contract months, moving thecontract expiration day and lengthening the aver-aging period for the CME lean hog index.

OUTLOOK: For the week, September corn closed3⁄4 cents lower at $3.51 3⁄4 and December was up 11⁄4 cents at $3.63 1⁄2 per bushel. The spot month(currently September) traded to the lowest level forthe lead month in four years at $3.51 1⁄4 per bushel.The lead corn contract closed lower for the seventhconsecutive week, matching the stretch in June and

July 2009. The $3.61 contract low inDecember corn is the lowest August-Sep-

tember low for a December contract since2009, when the contract traded to the $3.02 area.Corn’s trend is lower with next support in theDecember contract at $3.24 1⁄2, then in the $3.00area. If something unexpectantly threatens thecrop, the line of first resistance is $3.77 3⁄4 perbushel. We’ll take our next cue from the USDAreport and while we can always see bounces in abear market, it’s difficult to find anything to sustaina rally.

SOYBEANS — If there were any fireworks left ina market, it would be in beans. The August contractsoared higher and pulled the forward months along.A lack of deliveries against the August contract anda tight 13/14 carryout were cited as factors in therally. The November contract was pulled along, butAugust weather determines the final yield. Manyareas have received moisture, but there are still afew areas that would welcome another rain, includ-ing Minnesota. As of this writing, rain is in the fore-cast. Demand for old crop soybeans has been unend-ing. This week’s old crop export sales were still in thepositive at 3.5 million bushels. We need to have netnegative sales of 8.2 million bushels per week to getdown to the USDA’s 1.62 billion bushel estimate.Total export commitments are nearly 75 millionbushels higher than the USDA’s export projection. InJuly, China imported 7.47 million metric tons of soy-beans, a record for any month. Their stockpiles ofsoybeans have surged to the highest level since Sep-tember 2013. The U.S. meal export sales were amaz-ingly large at 252.1 mmt. China has been importingU.S. meal as Argentine growers hold soybeans as ahedge against inflation. Weaker crush margins inChina have also pushed them toward buying product

versus crushing.The average yield estimate for the Aug. 12 report is

45.6 BPA, up .4 BPA from the July 45.2 BPA fore-cast. The biggest increase in bean yield from the JulyUSDA report to August was 2.1 BPA in 1994.Traders are anticipating a 3.823 billion bushel cropprojection compared to the July 3.80 billion bushelfigure. The 2014/2015 carryout estimate is 414 mil-lion bushels compared to July’s 660 million bushelsforecast.

OUTLOOK: August soybeans soared 69 3⁄4 centsthis week to close at $12.84 3⁄4 as traders even posi-tions ahead of expiration Aug. 14. The Novembercontract, which is the month virtually all the bids tothe grower are based, was 26 1⁄4 cents higher for theweek at $10.84 3⁄4 per bushel. November soybeans,like corn, tested and held the contract low at $10.54this week. Weather, old crop demand, and what theUSDA publishes on Aug. 12 will set the tone for thebalance of August. If rains are scarce, the Novembercontract low may hold for now and set $11.20 to$11.32 3⁄4 as upside targets. If there is good rain cov-erage and the contract low is breached, the $10.40 to$10.00 area would be next support. Demand for oldcrop also warrants monitoring. In the end, if thecoming crop is near or at the estimated record, we’llsee lower prices down the road.

Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the weekended Aug. 8: Chicago September wheat rallied 15cents, Minneapolis was 2 3⁄4 cents higher, andKansas City fell 3 1⁄2 cents. September crude oildropped 23 cents for the week to $97.65 per barrel,ultra-low-sulfur diesel and reformulated blendstockfor oxygenate blending each gained a penny, and nat-ural gas jumped 16 1⁄2 cents higher.

JOHNSON, from pg. 25Amanagement

If the land rental rate is much higher than break-even levels, producers must try to negotiate a morereasonable rental rate or flexible agreement or facethe difficult decision to let the land go.

By running different cash flow scenarios produc-ers will be in a good position to know what theyneed to negotiate for 2015 rents. A strong workingcapital position may give producers a little moreroom to negotiate higher if necessary, although aweak working capital position may give little mar-gin for error. With this knowledge in hand, produc-ers should begin discussions with their land ownersahead of harvest, with most looking for reducedrates. Hopefully land owners understand the cur-rent grain economics but, if not, it may be beneficialto outline the economics and the risks associatedwith putting in a crop. It’s important not to assumethe land owner is expecting a lower land rental rateas I’ve already seen a few land owners that wereexpecting higher rates for 2015. No matter what theexpectations, it’s important to try and focus on thetangible discussion topics and be prepared to talknot only about commodity prices and rental rates,but also nutrient management, production practices

and rent-to-value ratios.One alternative to a proposed high cash rental rate

for 2015 may be for producers and landlords to con-sider flexible cash lease rental agreements. Thisallows the final cash rental rate to vary as cropyields and market prices vary or as gross revenueper acre exceeds established targets. The use of aflexible cash rental lease is potentially fairer to boththe landlord and the farm operator, depending onhow the flexible lease is set up. There are many vari-ations to setting up a flexible lease agreementbetween a landlord and farm operator. The big key,regardless of the flexible lease agreement, is for boththe landlord and tenant fully understand the rentalagreement, and the calculations that are used todetermine the final rental rate.

There are many dynamics that go into rental ratenegotiations, but the most important is to be pre-pared for the discussion, which includes knowingyour costs, having alternatives, and be willing tomake difficult decisions.

TEALE, from pg. 25Aof their inventory.

The hog market has been on a slide for the pastseveral weeks as numbers of hogs had been morethan adequate to meet packer’s needs. Theannouncement by Russia to ban the import of Amer-ican agricultural products which includes pork didnot undermine the already bearish attitude towardthe hog market.

A saving grace for the hogs is the fact that marketis oversold and the futures are extremely discount tothe current cash index. Another factor could also beoptimistic for hogs is the fact that the relationshipbetween pork and beef is misaligned once againmaking pork the better value against beef. It is notso much that hog prices have to rally, but that therelationships between competitive meats and porkcould support the hog market prices from collapsingin the weeks ahead. Obviously the hog market hassignaled some sort of a resistance to the higherprices seen this spring. Therefore producers shouldapproach the market with a cautious attitude and bewilling to protect inventories as needed. ❖

WORTHINGTON, Minn. — The federal govern-ment predicts Minnesota farmers will produce 1.34billion bushels of corn this year, up 40 millionbushels from last year, yet badweather early in the season and lowprices will put the squeeze on prof-its for the state’s producers.

The U.S. Department of Agricul-ture’s outlook for Minnesota alsopredicts corn yields averaging 168bushels per acre, up eight bushelsfrom 2013. But that’s 20 bushelsless than what Iowa and Illinoisproducers are expected to harvest. Minnesota soy-bean production is forecast at 312 million bushels,up 15 percent from last year. The average soybeanyield is expected to be 42 bushels per acre, onebushel more than 2013.

The data was part of a national forecast releasedAug. 12 for a record-breaking corn harvest of 14 bil-lion bushels. TheUSDA also said soy-bean productionnationwide also willset a new record of 3.8billion bushels.

But up to a foot ofrain fell in parts Min-nesota in June,drowning out parts ofa crop that gotplanted late in manyareas. Add in somehail damage, and theweather hurt Min-nesota corn justenough to turn apotential record har-vest into an averageor a little-above-aver-age crop.

On the Jason Tibodeau farm near Heron Lake insouthwest Minnesota, the corn appears to be in goodshape. The dark green stalks are 8 feet tall or more.

“Things are looking really, really well for uslocally,” Tibodeau told Minnesota Public Radio. Buthe also estimated that about 5 percent of his cropwas lost or stunted by the rain.

If corn prices stay in the current range of $3 to $4,most farmers will lose money on this year’s crop,University of Minnesota grain marketing specialistEd Usset said.

“I figure it costs the average Minnesota farmer

$4.50 to $5 a bushel to produce one bushel of corn,”Usset said. “The math is not very pretty on corn. It’sgoing to be a tough year.”

But soybean prices will help offset the corn loss.Although they’re also sinking, soybeans prices are

still at profitable levels. And the cheap corn is goodnews for cattle, hog and dairy farmers who use thegrain for feed.

A trail of seeds falling from a heli-copter nestled their way into standingcorn Aug. 12, as part of the SoilHealth and Cover Crops Field Day.

Nearly 200 farmers and communitymembers were in attendance, to fur-ther educate themselves on soilhealth and cover crops.

Cover crops consist of grasses andlegumes that are planted to providesoil cover when the field may other-wise be bare. Cover crops reduce bothwind and soil erosion and improveswater and soil quality.

Organized by the Rice Soil and WaterConservation District, the event wasplan to introduce local farmers to theeconomical and environmental benefitsof cover crop.The event began with pre-sentations from the Cannon RiverWatershed Partnership and MinnesotaDepartment of Agriculture. Followingthe presentations, attendees walkedthrough acres of cover crop plots thatJim Purfeerst planted earlier this year.

Gene Kuntz, agriculture consultant

with the Cannon River Watershed Part-nership, introduced a recent surveythat looked into tillage in southernMinnesota. The survey concluded thatthe most economical tillage method wasmoldboard plowing. He then transi-tioned into cover crops and touched on anumber of benefits, which includedbuilding organic material, storing nitro-gen and retaining more water.

“It’s our investment going downthese streams and rivers; we have tofind a way to better manage that,” hesaid.

Spencer Herbert, soil scientist forthe Minnesota Department of Agricul-ture, introduced four key benefits thatresult from planting cover crops. By

adding additional cash or forage cropinto the regular rotation, farmers willfind a number of benefits including:

Increased diversity within the soilSoil being less disturbed Plants grow-ing throughout the yearKeeping the soil covered

The event was held at Jim Purfeerst’sfarm in Faribault, to allow attendees tosee the cover crop plots he planted ear-lier this year. Herbert stressed that it isimportant for farmers to look at whatthey want out of their cover crop beforedeciding which to use.

“There is no set mix or plant speciesfor cover crop,” Herbert said. “You areable to adjust to what your goals are.”

The last presentation introduced theuse of drones in the agricultural indus-try. Erik Johnson, with Leading EdgeTechnologies, presented a number ofdrones that can be a great tool forfarmers.

“The goal is to fly over the field andtake individual pictures to analyze thecrop,” he said.

Using these drones, farmer canlocate and digitize drain tiles, takethermal images, follow growth pat-terns and archive the growth statusfor insurance purposes. Although it isstill a relatively new technology, John-son said even more features are goingto be available in the near future,including insect and disease detection.One of the devices Johnson talkedabout has the ability to cover 160 acresin 30 minutes.

Following the presentations, attendeeswandered throughout Purfeerst fieldobserving the cover crop plots that heplanted on June 25. Each plot runsabout 120 feet wide and contains tillageradish, annual ryegrass and dutch whiteclover. All of these cover crops Purfeerstused are also cool temperature tolerantwhich allows them to thrive in thespring, keeping the soil covered.

“I’m certainly one of the new kids onthe block trying this (cover crop),” hesaid. “But I want to keep building upthe soil, organic matter, and top soil.”

Because the majority of the soil isshaded due to the corn, Purfeerstexpects to see more success with thecover crop this fall when the cornleaves begin to drop.

Steve Pahs, district manager for the Soiland Water Conservation District, said alot of people are really new to cover crops.

“It’s not your typical farming,” hesaid. “But it certainly could be thefuture.”

As part of the field day, Pahs wasfocusing on promoting the new prac-tices that will have a positive impacton conservation and water quality.

To end the event, a helicopter flewover some of Purfeerst’s fields to addadditional cover crops.

Purfeerst said in the future, he hopesto continue holding similar annualevents.

Sure, the debate continues as towhich is the better for feeding cattle —deep bedding or slats. RedwoodCounty (Minn.) cattle feeder DaveEngen decided the best way to find outwas to try both systems.

Participants on the July 8 MinnesotaState Cattlemen’s Association summertour hosted by Redwood County Cattle-men checked out both structures at Dou-ble Creek Farm, the Engen operation.

The slat barn, 44 feet wide and 363feet long, is new, housing its first batch ofcattle this season. In a brief interviewwith The Land, Engen said, “We hear

cattle in the slat barn are going to do bet-ter because of improved feed efficiencyand more comfort. We hope so becauseour upfront investment on the slat barndefinitely cost most per head capacity.”

Their other structure is open front,deep bedding on concrete. It measures48 feet wide by 234 feet long and has a350-head capacity.

An added touch on the slat barn is arubber covering installed on the slats.“Cattle comfort is excellent. Wedecided on rubber from the get-go eventhough costs are bigger. Payback looksgood on the rubber,” he said. A goodwarranty for at least a 10-year period,Engen mentioned that some barns

have rubber covered slats now intotheir 17th year. “So hopefully the rub-ber will last the life of the slats.”

Not a big issue, but perhaps impor-tant if time is critical, is the simplefact that the permitting process ontheir total confinement, slat-flooredstructure wasn’t an issue.

“Any time you present a plan whichcontains everything — manure, ani-mals and traffic — it’s just that mucheasier. An open building with openyard is more a challenge when it comesto permits,” Engen said.

Cattle in the Engen operation weresizeable already in early July. That’sbecause these critters are heading forCreekstone Packing, Arkansas City, Kan.

“These are scheduled to go out thefirst week in August weighing about1,525 pounds. Usually we’re in the

1,400-lb. range but this is the sizethey want,” he said, noting also“exclusively black cattle” is whatCreekstone Packing handles. Creek-stone pays the trucking.

His new confinement facility hasfour pens, 160-head per pen.

“We started with 160-head per penand even now after a feeding period,they’ll all be laying down in comfort.,”Engen said. “Yes, there’s always somesocial structure amongst a bunch ofcattle but we walk the pens each day.We’ll need a few more bunches of cat-tle through both systems before wehave data as to which is generatingthe best bottom dollar.

“But so far we’re feeling good aboutthis slat floored structure with rub-ber. And apparently so are the cattle,”Engen said. ❖

Dick Hagen

Redwood County (Minn.) cattle feeder Dave Engen decided the best way to findout whether slats or deep bedding was best, was to try both in his operation.


He lived with a little bit of prevent planting in2013, just enough to understand that it’s a bunch ofpotential confusion. But in 2014 prevent plantingbecame a major pain for lots of farmers. One ofthese guys was Mike Meulenar, the Carver County(Minn.) farmer who introduced me to the word“ineptocracy” last winter. I sat with Mike at a Rabo

Bank dinner event in Olivia, Minn., on July 28. Hechatted on the challenges of getting (or rather,mostly not getting) his crops planted in 2014.

Said Meulenar, “One day between showers thisspring I was just sitting and thinking about thisfarming business. In 1973, the first year I startedfarming with my Dad, we got totally hailed out. Wethought we had good crop insurance but they told uswe could use that crop for silage. Corn without ears

isn’t much forsilage. But we sur-vived.”

He continued,“Then in 1988 thedrought hit butagain we survived.Last year we hadour first taste ofprevent plant. Trou-blesome but weworked around it.We do our owntiling and where wefarm up in thatNorwood/YoungAmerica area our

tile trenches werewet last fall. Then we had this long winter that did-n’t want to end; then a big snow the end of April. Sothis spring we really had some issues.”

He farms with his brother and nephew and simplysaid, “not planting a crop is really tough. I don’tknow how many sheets of paper we went through.Seems every day we would sit down and pencil it outagain and it always came up better to not plant butinstead take the crop insurance, save our APH(annual production history), save our yield history.Prevent plant seemed to be the only way to get someblack ink out of farming this year.”

Meulenar is a realist. “We could have mudded thiscrop in but the showers kept coming every few days.We did mud in some crop and it looks terrible.”

Their first year of prevent planting was 2013 butthat was only on 250 acres. This year there are lots ofprevent planting acres in Carver County, includingabout 3,450 acres just for the Meulenar operation.The estimate is that 30 percent of the county’s corncrop didn’t get planted this year. Official figureswon’t be available until certification data is com-pleted by all Carver County producers.

So what do you do with this land? “We startedspraying just as soon as we could for weed control.We have a mounted sprayer with a 120 foot boom ona John Deere track tractor (8430 model) but even sowe got stuck four times in the first week. We obvi-ously shouldn’t have been in those fields; they juststayed wet for a long time.”

How do you “unstuck” those big JD track tractors?With another tractor just as big, chuckled Meulenar.Because fields were so wet, spraying those preventplant acres took over two weeks. But the land neededsome sort of cover crop. They started buying oats inJune but quickly oats were getting scarce. They gottheir last out of the North and South Dakota. Theystarted spreading the oats that last week in July andworking it lightly into the landscape.

Intentions are to leave this oat seeding until earlyOctober then go in and disc/chisel lightly for wintercover; then hopefully next spring is a decent one andthat land goes back into corn and soybean produc-tion.

See PREVENT, pg. 31A

We could havemudded thiscrop in but theshowers keptcoming everyfew days. Wedid mud insome crop andit looks terrible.

— Mike Meulenar

PREVENT, from pg. 30Aplanting ground because nothing hap-pens until acreage audits are con-firmed by the insurance companyagent. “We get audited every year.That’s just part of the business offarming any more, especially since wehave a good base history. That madeour decision to prevent plant a lot eas-ier because we have a long history ofcorn on corn,” Meulenar said.

There are lots of dairies in Meule-nar’s area so the obvious question:Where will the dairy farmers get theirfeed? He said one local dairy farmercalled in early June asking if we wouldplant some corn on those acres that hecould buy this fall, even if it didn’tmake grain corn. “We didn’t becausewe know that mudding in corn in mid-June wouldn’t amount to much of acrop and would likely hurt our basehistory also.”

He speculates that even with corn at$3.50 dairy guys are going to be able tofind silage. “They may be trucking afew miles but I think the corn will beout there. The negative is that Federal

Crop Insurance does not cover costslike it does a cash crop because theywouldn’t have the corn base if it’srotated in there with alfalfa and acover crop of oats.”

The irony of this huge prevent plant-ing situation is that lots and lots ofexpensive seed corn never got planted,even though farmers had already paid

for the seed. With the Meulenars, forexample, the seed company eventuallydid pick up the unused seed and as yethasn’t refunded the seed cost.

But Mike’s okay with that so far. “Ithought they would send me a checkbut as of July 28 that hasn’t happened.It looks like I will have been financingmy seed for pretty much a whole year.I suspect we will get repaid or perhapsthis covers seed purchases for nextyear. But we will get new seed. Theytook my old stuff so we’ll be okay withseed quality again.”

Will seed prices be a battle this fallin view of lower commodity prices?Only time will tell, speculates Meule-nar, indicating, “We’re only a smallspot in the U.S. corn crop. Lots of ter-rifically good corn in most of the coun-try so cash is being generated and corndemand likely will be strong againnext year.”

That word he shared for a LandMinds last winter was “Ineptocracy,” a

system of government where the leastcapable to lead are elected by the leastcapable of producing and where themembers of society least likely to sus-tain themselves or succeed, arerewarded with goods and servicespaid for by wealth of a diminishingnumber of producers.

Meulenar agrees, “It seems we’restill in that same situation.”

As Feeder Council chairman ofthe Minnesota State Cattlemen’sAssociation, Mike Landuyt of ruralWalnut Grove has a keen eye forbeef research projects funded bythe Cattlemen at the University ofMinnesota. “We offer opinions andguidance on new research. It’s partof the teamwork that is so important in building abetter beef industry,” he said in a brief interview atthe July 8 Summer Tour of which Landuyt Land &Livestock was one of the stops.

Mike and his family are now the third generationat this location. He, wife Kari and parents Georgeand Kris Landuyt own and operate the livestock andcrop farm. With a capacity of 700 head, the goal is tosell 1,400 each year, mostly black hided animals.

“The packer we sell to most often buys only blackcattle and pay’s a premium. Our operation consistsof a hoop barn and a mono-slope barn with a work-ing system and a manure bay,” Landuyt said.

After graduating from South Dakota State Uni-versity where he took several beef productionclasses, Landuyt’s ambition was to get the farmback into the cattle business. “Our farm hadn’traised cattle for almost 40 years so when we startedagain, we used anything of value we could get frompeople who had gotten out of the business, includingrenting empty feed yards.”

In 2009 the Landuyts built their first confinementbarn. In 2011 a second confinement barn waserected and now all their cattle operation was onthe home farm.

The black animals are his first experience so he’shesitant to compare hide colors in terms of produc-tion efficiency. “My goal of course is that these ani-mals will put more money into the bank but timewill tell.”

Like all cattlemen he’s concerned about currenttrends in the beef business both the buying of feed-ers and the selling of finishers. And he wonders atwhat point consumer reaction starts kicking in. “I’vebeen thinking it would be slowing down for eight

months now,” he said but he suggested much like $8corn, this beef price has a limit. “The worst thing wecould have happen is people getting used to eatingsomething else because they can’t afford beef any-more,” Landuyt said.

Like most cattle feeders, the Landuyt operationgrows enough feed and forage so their only pur-chases are some hay and distillers byproduct fromthe Highwater ethanol plant at Lamberton only 12miles away. ❖

Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey com-mented Aug. 11 on the Iowa crop progress and condi-tion report released by the U.S. Department of Agri-culture’s National Agricultural Statistical Service.The report is released weekly from April throughOctober.

“The state saw spotty precipitation last week andthe rains were mostly welcomed by farmers. Thosewho missed out on the recent rains would welcomesome precipitation to help finish both the corn andbean crop,” Northey said.

Crop reportDue to varying amounts of precipitation, some

areas of Iowa had less than three days suitable forfield work while others had more than six days dur-ing the week ending Aug. 10, according to the USDA,National Agricultural Statistics Service. Statewidethere were 4.6 days suitable for field work during theweek. Insecticides were applied to help combat grow-ing soybean aphid populations.

Topsoil moisture levels rated 3 percent very short, 23percent short, 71 percent adequate, and 3 percent sur-plus. Subsoil moisture levels rated 3 percent veryshort, 19 percent short, 76 percent adequate, and 2 per-cent surplus.

Over half of Iowa’s corn acreage was in the doughstage or beyond, more than two weeks ahead of 2013and a week ahead of the five-year average. Seven per-cent of the corn crop reached the dent stage, ahead oflast year but 4 percentage points behind normal. Sev-enty-six percent of the corn crop was reported in good toexcellent condition. Over three-quarters of the soybeanacreage was setting pods or beyond, almost 30 percent-age points above last year, but only four points aboveaverage. Seventy-five percent of the soybean crop is ingood to excellent condition. Oat harvest for grain was87 percent complete, 3 percentage points behind theprevious year and six points behind the normal pace.

The second cutting of alfalfa hay was 93 percentcomplete, just above last year but equal to the five-year average. The third cutting of alfalfa hayadvanced to 22 percent complete, three days ahead oflast year but just over one week behind normal.Sixty-six percent of all hay was rated in good toexcellent condition. Pasture condition decreased forthe fourth week in a row and now stands at 58 per-cent good to excellent. Stress on livestock was mini-mal with the cooler than normal temperatures.

This article was submitted by the Iowa Department ofAgriculture and Land Stewardship. ❖

Northey: More rain would be welcome

This column was written forthe marketing week endingAug. 8.

June 2014 milk productionhit 16.2 billion pounds,according to the U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture’s prelimi-nary data, up 2.0 percentcompared to a year ago.USDA’s latest Dairy Productsreport issued Aug. 1 showswhere it went.

June butter production,at 140 million pounds,was down 15 percent fromMay and 0.2 percent belowJune 2013. Nonfat dry milk outputtotaled 147.9 million pounds, down 9.4percent from May but up 13.1 percentfrom a year ago.

American-type cheese productionwas reported to total 349 millionpounds, down 10.8 percent from Mayand 3.8 percent below a year ago. Ital-ian-type cheese, at 409 million pounds,was 1.2 percent below May but 4.4 per-cent above a year ago. Total cheeseproduction amounted to 916 millionpounds, down 5.2 percent from May

and just 0.5 percent abovethat of a year ago.

But, upon questioning ofits data, specifically withrespect to cheese output inIdaho by HighGroundDairy’s Eric Meyer, USDAannounced that it wouldre-examine its report andin a rare decision issued arevision Tuesday after-noon. June Cheddar vol-ume was revised 17.8 mil-

lion pounds higher,up 22 percent fromJune 2013 and 7.7

percent higher than May 2014. Ameri-can volume was revised up 19.5 mil-lion pounds, up 14.5 percent from June2013 and 9.9 percent above May 2014.

The revisions added to the American,Cheddar, and total cheese data. Ameri-can cheese totaled 375 million poundsafter the revision, up from 349 millionoriginally reported, down 4.3 percentfrom May, instead of 10.8 percent, andwas up 3.2 percent from June 2013,instead of being down 3.8 percent asoriginally reported. Total cheese pro-

duction amounted to 942 millionpounds, instead of 916 million, down2.6 percent from May instead of 5.2percent, and 3.3 percent above a yearago instead of the 0.5 percent origi-nally reported.

MIELKE, from pg. 33Atively. He talked about it onFriday’s DairyLine and saidthe data was inaccurately reported toUSDA, and he praised the prompt revi-sion.

Given the original report, Dryerreported that commercial disappear-ance of American-type cheese was vir-tually unchanged from a year ago. Therevision resulted in commercial disap-pearance being up 2.2 percent duringthe most recent three months — inother words, Second Quarter of thisyear — and “a nice bump,” he said.Other cheese disappearance was up3.1 percent in the Second Quarter,“another strong number,” according toDryer, butter disappearance was upalmost 15 percent and skim milk pow-der/nonfat dry milk was up 5.3 per-cent, “so good solid commercial disap-pearance across the board during theSecond Quarter.”

Dryer does not see the added cheeseas a bearish signal. “The cheese wasproduced and it was consumed,” heargued. “The inventory numbers at theend of June didn’t change. They didn’tgo up because cheese production wentup, they actually in general wentdown, signaling to us stronger con-sumption.”

I asked about the continued drop inthe Global Dairy Trade weighted aver-age and the uncompetitiveness of U.S.dairy product prices on the world mar-ket.

“Uncompetitive?” Dryer responded.“Cheese exports in June were up 30percent versus a year ago; I thinkwe’re still competitive in the cheesemarket for sure and nonfat dry milkshipments were up 25 percent versus ayear ago. ... U.S. prices are higher thananyone else’s, but we also have theproduct to deliver and they don’t nec-essarily have it to deliver from otherlocations.”

■

Speaking of production, Dairy Mar-ket News reports that Midwest cheeseinventories remain tight. Most cheeseplants are operating on reduced sched-ules reflecting reduced milk supplies,even after supplementing vats withcondensed skim and nonfat dry milk.In most of the region milk productionis slowing and, in some cases, fallingbelow expectations. Spot load avail-ability is not very good, especially inareas where schools are close to resum-ing classes and milk pipelines arebeginning to fill. In small pockets ofthe region where milk production has

ticked up, plantsare operating at

close to full capac-ity.

Western milk supplies are movingseasonally lower, but cheese plants arefinding milk solids to keep productionnear steady. Export demand hasslowed, but domestic orders are steady,with buyers often looking to add toorders on any price breaks. Stocks ofcheese are adequate.

Cash cheese secured its positionabove $2 per pound the first week ofAugust. The Cheddar blocks closedthat Friday at $2.10 per pound, up 10cents on the week, 30.25 cents above ayear ago, and the highest since May 1,2014. The Cheddar barrels finished at$2.1225, up 12.25 cents on the week,35.75 cents above a year ago, and 2.25cents above the blocks. Twelve cars ofblock and six of barrel traded hands onthe week. The National Dairy ProductsSales Report-surveyed U.S. averageblock price hit $2.0109, up 0.3 cent,while the barrels averaged $2.0726, up1.2 cents.

■

Butter, meanwhile, went into a hold-ing pattern, despite a lot of productcoming to Chicago, and after plunging19 cents the previous week, and closedFriday at $2.40 per pound, unchangedon the week but $1.0025 above a yearago. Thirty-seven cars traded hands onthe week. NDPSR butter averaged$2.5313, up 11.8 cents.

Butter buyers are waiting for a clearprice direction before taking largepositions, according to Dairy MarketNews. The market tone is unsettled.Butter operators are churning atsteady to slightly improved rates. Deci-sions on cream are mixed as suppliesare generally loosening. Interest forbutter domestically is mostly steady.Prices in various international buttermarkets shifted lower, which are ham-pering new export orders. Most manu-facturers do not have enough excessbutterfat to build properly for fourthquarter. Schools are opening in someareas of the West and increased creamis becoming available. Weaker creammultiples have butter manufacturerslooking to increase butter productionfor fall needs.

Cash Grade A nonfat dry milk took ahit this week, closing Friday at $1.54,down 11 cents, and the lowest it hasbeen since March 26, 2013. Seven carswere sold this week in the spot market.NDPSR powder averaged $1.8412, up

Tuesday’s Global Dairy Trade auc-tion saw the weighted average for allproducts drop 8.4 percent, followingthe 8.9 percent plunge in the July 15session. The price index has prettymuch seen declines since reaching itshigh on Feb. 4.

The downfall was led by an 11.5 per-cent plunge in whole milk powder,which was down 10.9 percent in the lastevent. That was followed by Cheddarcheese, down 10.2 percent, which was off1.6 percent July 15, and buttermilkpowder was down 10.1 percent, afterdropping 4.6 percent last time. GDTbutter was down 9.6 percent, following a1.1 percent decline last time. Skim milkpowder was down 6.5 percent, followinga 7.1 percent decline last time. Rennetcasein was down 0.7 percent after losing8.9 percent in the last event. The onlyproduct showing an increase was anhy-drous milkfat, up 6.0 percent, afterdropping 10 percent last time.

FC Stone reports the average GDTbutter price equated to about $1.2703per pound U.S., down from $1.4261 inthe July 15 event. Contrast that toChicago Mercantile Exchange butterwhich closed Friday at $2.40 perpound. The GDT Cheddar cheese aver-age was $1.6973 per pound U.S., downfrom $1.8887 last time. The U.S. blockCheddar CME price Friday was at$2.10/lb. GDT skim milk powder, at$1.4804 per pound U.S., is down from$1.5947 and the whole milk powderaverage at $1.2360 per pound U.S., isdown from $1.4009 in the last event.The CME Grade A nonfat dry milkprice Friday stood at $1.54 per pound.

The losses continue in dramatic fash-ion on the Global Dairy Trade auction,says HighGround Dairy’s Eric Meyer.The world’s dairy farmers and thosethat make or sell dairy products acrossthe globe must be scratching theirheads thinking just six months ago, theworld appeared to have an insatiableappetite for all things dairy and priceswould remain above average for theforeseeable future. The soft landinghypothesis has been proven wrong,Meyer said. As the dust settles fromthis week’s auction, the GDT PriceIndex has fallen to two-year lows andshed more than 40 percent of its valueover the past six months. For NewZealand dairy farmers, the loss of thisperceived income is quite significant.

Those of us that have been a part of the

U.S. dairy industry for a whilehave gone through this boomand bust cycle a few timesover the past 15 years.And after witness-ing the 2014 GDT price collapse over thepast six months, it appears that a viciousdairy market collapse can and will occurjust about anywhere. Read Meyer’s hedg-ing tips for dairy producers and globaldairy buyers by writing him atwww.highgroundtrading.com.

The farmer-funded CooperativesWorking Together program accepted13 requests for export assistance thisweek to sell 1.989 million pounds ofCheddar cheese, and 55,116 pounds ofbutter to customers in Asia, the MiddleEast, North Africa, South America andthe South Pacific. The product will bedelivered through January 2015 andraises CWT’s 2014 cheese exports to80.301 million pounds, plus 48.050million pounds of butter and 18.290million pounds of whole milk powderto 43 countries on six continents.

■

The California Department of Foodand Agriculture announced its Sep-tember Class I milk prices Friday at$25.39 per hundredweight for thenorth and $25.66 for the south. Bothare up 11 cents from August and$5.11and $5.10 respectively aboveSeptember 2013.

The north Class I average nowstands at $24.78 for the year, up from$19.91 at this time a year ago and$17.99 in 2012. The southern average,at $25.05, is up from $20.18 a year agoand $18.26 in 2012. The Federal orderClass I base price is announced byUSDA on Aug. 20.

The National Milk Producers Feder-ation wants the Food and Drug Admin-istration to fix a problem in theplanned definition of added sugars onfood labels, saying it appears toinclude dairy products used as foodingredients, even though the lactose —or “milk sugar” — in those productsoccurs naturally.

Commenting Aug. 1 on the FDA’sproposed changes to the nutrition factslabel, NMPF was basically supportiveof FDA’s proposal to list added sugars,saying it will clarify the contribution oflactose to dairy products and allowconsumers to pinpoint added sweeten-ers in foods. But, under FDA’s pro-posed definition, NMPF said the lac-tose in a tablespoon of nonfat dry milkincorporated into another food would

count as an “addedsugar,” while thelactose in a glass of

milk would not.“Surely, that can’t be what FDA

intends,” said Beth Briczinski, NMPF’svice present for dairy foods and nutri-tion. “We assume this is simply anoversight, since nonfat dry milk isoften an ingredient in dairy productslike yogurt and ice cream, as well asother foods, including baked and

processed foods that benefit fromadded milk solids. ... Either way, thisneeds to be corrected.”

ST. CLOUD, Minn. — On any livestock farm,identification and record keeping is important. It’scrucial for several reasons: knowing that animal’slineage, knowing its age, any treatment the animalhas received, and other aspects of its history onyour farm. Not knowing which animal is which canlead to many detrimental management mistakes.Brenda Miller, Livestock Educator with ToddCounty Extension, recently published an articleabout this very topic. She had many valuableinsights on the subject. She says, “It doesn’t matterif you have 30 or 3,000 cows; every producer needsto have an identification system in place.”

Let’s start with identification. What are theoptions? What are the tools associated with thoseoptions? Ear tags are the most widely used type ofidentification on farms. Ear tags are an easy, firstform of identification for any age or size of animalwith many different options to choose from. Choicescan include color, size, personalization, laserengraved, or write-on tags.

If you worry about an animal losing its ear tag,you may consider double tagging your animals withone small and one large tag (or two large tags) bothwith the same name/number. That way should one

tag get lost you will still have the other one and canreplace the lost tag the next time the animal runsthrough the chute or comes into the barn. If youchoose ear tags, the supplies you’ll need are the tagsand a tagging pliers. If you worry about losing eartags, you may want to look at a more permanentform of ID.

Permanent forms of identification include tattoosand brands. Tattoos are placed in the ear of the ani-mal, and can last forever. However, the downside totattoos is they may be hard to read, and you willmost likely need help applying them to your ani-mals. Supplies needed to tattoo livestock include thetattoo pliers, letter and number dyes, and the ink.Branding is a well-known means of livestock identi-fication.

Today, most farmers do freezing branding, and itusually results in an easy to read, permanent ID.Some cons of branding are the extra work and peopleit requires, needing a restraint system such as achute, and the cost of all of the supplies needed,which includes branding irons, liquid nitrogen, clip-pers, timer, disinfectant, and gloves.

Along with proper identification, adequate record

keeping is crucial to any livestock operation. Everyfarm should be keeping records especially on animalidentification and any treatments used on a specificanimal.

When artificially inseminating, write down theservice date, service sire, and due date for each cow.Keep a chart or a single page-per-cow to record whenshe calved, bull or heifer, dead or alive, ID of the calf,and any additional observations or comments. Addto her chart every year she calves and include hervaccinations, illnesses, treatments, and any otherlife events she may have.

For day-to-day, recording this information in anotebook allows for easy access and quick notes.However, in addition to written notes you shouldconsider using record-keeping software, such asDairyComp, or at the very least making an Excelspreadsheet on the computer so you have everythingdown twice-written on paper and saved on the com-puter.

This article was written by Emily Wilmes with Uni-versity of Minnesota Extension. For more informa-tion, contact her at the Stearns County ExtensionOffice at (320) 255-6169. ❖

Once upon a time, not really all that long ago, theopportunity to bag a Canada goose was a rare thing.

Indeed, if one was lucky enough to killone, a trip to the local newspaper office fora photograph was in order.

Nowadays, please don’t bother.Oh, the call of a honker still stirs the

blood and quickens the heart of many ofus, though for different reasons.

If you’re a hunter, the lyrical calls of apassing flock falling lightly in the crispmorning air is music to the ear, the veryessence of wildness.

But if you’re a farmer watching and lis-tening in July as a flightless flock systematicallylays waste to a patch of soybeans, they are littlemore than free-loading, feathered rats.

Likewise, the big birds are held in low esteem bygolfers trying to line up a putt around the big birds’droppings as they loaf on urban links courses.

Beads of sweat form on the brows of air traffic con-trollers and pilots when the birds inhabit the samegeneral airspace.

Talk about a rags-to-riches-back-to-rags story.There was a time when Branta canadensis max-

ima, the largest of the seven subspecies of Canadageese, was thought to be extinct.

But then in 1962, it was determined some of thegeese hanging around Silver Lake in Rochester aftera power plant was constructed there in 1948 indeedwere of the giant variety.

Successful restoration efforts followed— in Minnesota and elsewhere — and therest is history.

In retrospect, perhaps it has all been alittle too successful.

No one who has ever hunted Canadageese would label them as dumb.

After a couple of encounters with decoysand hunters, they quickly learn where therefuge boundaries are and easily adapt tourban environments where the living issafe and easy.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resourcesestimated the resident Canada goose population ear-lier this summer at 244,000 across the state andanother 17,500 birds in the metro area.

Based on spring nesting conditions, the DNR pre-dicted an average to better-than-average reproduc-tive year for the geese this year.

So depending on one’s point of view, Minnesota’sresident goose flock is doing very well. Or not.

Efforts to control populations of the birds, particu-larly in urban areas, have included trapping andrelocating birds.

More recently, population control measures haveincluded more lethal means where the birds aretrapped and killed with the dressed carcassesdonated to food shelves.

THE OUTDOORS

By John Cross

See OUTDOORS, pg. 39A

OUTDOORS, from pg. 38ABut hunting remains an important

component in goose management.In addition to the traditional goose

hunting season, special hunts havebeen instituted over the years to maxi-mize recreational opportunities forhunters along with at least a measureof population control. An extendedhunting season in December in theRochester area has been in place foryears to target the large flock of birdsthat congregate at Silver Lake eachfall.

Then came a special early goosehunting season in September to targetthe expanding flocks of resident birdsacross much of Minnesota.

And last year, hunters could targetthe birds in a some parts of the state asearly as August.

On Aug. 9, an early goose huntingseason once again opened in a largeportion of Minnesota and will continuethrough August 24.

Deemed the Intensive Harvest Zone,the area open to the August hunt isroughly defined as an area within aline beginning at East Grand Forks tojust west of the Metro area, then south-west to Lake Benton.

(For specific boundaries go to the linkin the accompanying box.) Perhaps an

indication of how far from favor thegoose flock has fallen in some circles,hunters are permitted to shoot asmany as 10 daily with no limit on howmany they can have in possession.

That is a remarkable thing whenone considers that just 52 years ago,the birds were thought to be extinct.

Another indication is that the earlyseason really isn’t even officially titledas a hunting season.

Rather, the DNR is calling it the2014 August Canada Goose Manage-ment Harvest. Read between the linesand the early hunt is a pest controlmeasure.

But a rose by any other name smellsjust as sweet.

And scores of hunters were out lyingin fields amidst thousands of dollars ofdecoys this weekend, sweating, dousedin DEET to ward off mosquitoes, all tobag some August honkers.

Sky carp, feathered rats, call thempests, if you wish.

But they are, nevertheless, magnifi-cent pests.

James Root, the train engineer who rescued 150 peoplefrom the flames of Hinckley on Sept. 1, 1894, did so bybacking his train out of town to a marsh called Skunk

Lake. There the people on the burning train leaped off and,with the aid of porter John Blair, found their way to the hotslimy waters and immersed themselves.

Root, who miracu-lously survived severeburns, describes threemen running out of thebillowing smoke towardthe train as it began toinch out of Hinckley. Heslowed to pick thesemen up. But then herealized that if hestopped, everyone onboard would die.

One of the men stum-bled and disappeared inthe smoke. The othertwo reached the trainand grabbed on butshortly one of thoserolled off the train intothe flames. Even therailroad ties were burn-ing. A visit to Hinckley’sfire museum will renewthe story of James Root,John Blair, and many oth-ers from that Sept. 1st solong ago. The stories at themuseum are told throughvideo, wall murals, printed words, historical displays, and bythe museum hostesses. The story of the Hinckley fire, whichalso destroyed the villages of Sandstone, Mission Creek, andPokegama, is one all Minnesotans should know. There is no bet-ter place to sense its horrible ferocity than at the Fire Museum.

But if the image of a man stumbling, falling, and finally dis-appearing in the burning black smoke while James Root holdshis burned hands to the controls is overwhelming, you canretreat to the cemetery on Fire Monument Road. In fourtrenches behind the 52-foot tall gray granite marker lie theremains of 248 bodies recovered shortly after the fire. Perhapsthe man who tried to reach Roots train lies there.

But, perhaps, he was identified by family members and givenhis own burial site. Or perhaps he is among the uncounteddead. When the monument was dedicated on Sept. 1, 1900, itsinscription said that, “more than four hundred and eighteenhuman lives” were lost in the fire. Who, then, were the “morethan” that were not counted? Does it matter to be uncounted?

The cutting of the forest that brought on the Hinckley Firewas part of the march of human progress. Some of the ques-tions posed by it are as old as time, however. ❖

Hinckley,Minn.

By KRISTIN KVENO

The ThronsonsGary, Minn.

Jared Thronson’sfirst winter wheatharvest is officially inthe books. When TheLand spoke withThronson Aug. 7 hereported that “thecombine and every-thing went good.”

His 60 acres took two days to combineand averaged 45 bushels per acre, with 14percent moisture and 11.5 percent pro-tein.Thronson was happy with the resultsas it was “on ground that just got out ofCRP (Conservation Reserve Program).”

On Aug. 3 he was spraying soybeansdue to some weeds coming back, andalso sprayed one field for soybeanaphids. Overall, he said, the beans look“pretty good,” but the field on sandyground was “getting on the dry side.”

A 50 percent chance of precipitationwas forecasted for Sunday, and Thron-son hoped it truly was coming. “Wecould use a good half inch of rain.”

Corn has “all been tasseled out for atleast a week,” he said. “It’s comingalong pretty good.” Meanwhile, thespring wheat “is starting to lighten upand turn.” Thronson estimated that hewas at least a week and a half to twoweeks from spraying Roundup on it.

He will continue to work on machin-ery and do some ditching in the winterwheat field; he had already chiselplowed that field.

Thronson is getting ready to spend a little“down time”in Detroit Lakes,Minn.,takingin the experience known as WE Fest. It’snot all work and no play for Thronson —after a successful winter wheat harvestthere’s cause for celebration.

The WiltsesHerman, Minn.

Dennis Wilts justgot back from a tripthat showed him howdifferent farmingpractices can be, evenwithin the UnitedStates. When TheLand spoke with Wiltson Aug. 11, he reflected on his recenttrip to the Willamette Valley in Oregon.

The experience was possible due tohis farm being named American Crys-tal Hybrids’ “highest recoverable sugar

per acre (in the district),” Wilts said.He and his brother Duane touredfarms that were as big as 4,000 acreswith 20 different crops grown eachyear, and farms that planted 25 acresof sugar beets. They also got to tour theAmerican Crystal Hybrids seed pro-cessing facility. Wilts called his time inOregon “good, very good.”

He returned home on Aug. 9, just intime for three-fourths to one and aquarter inches of precipitation at thefarm. “It was perfect rain,” Wilts said.“We were dry but the rain helped.”

Cooler temperatures have beenadvantageous — it’s “cool enough thatwe haven’t had to spray fungicide onour sugar beets.” Wilts usually spraysthe first round of fungicide on the sugarbeets in mid to late July. Lower tempsare keeping the fungus as bay for now.

Wilts said he “tried to combine wheattoday but it was too wet,” and hoped togive it another try in a few days. Nor-mally he is finished with the wheatharvest by now but this year’s late, wetstart delayed everything.

Aphids haven’t been a problem sofar, but Wilts plans on keeping an eyeon the fields and is ready to sprayshould the need arise.

Meanwhile, he’s ready for a little fish-ing adventure with friends; they’ll be“going to Canada on a fly-in fishing tripto fish for a week.” They had “supergood luck last year,” Wilts said, and he’shoping that continues again this time.

Good fishing, good travels, and hope-fully a good crop come harvest. “Every-thing is looking, pretty good,” he said.

The HoffmansNew Ulm, Minn.

Another Farmfesthas come and goneand Don Hoffmanwas there to take inthe sights and soundsof it all. The Landspoke with Hoffmanon Aug. 8; he reportedthat ag show’s 2014 edition had a“pretty average crowd, I thought.”

The weather was ideal for wanderingFarmfest’s grounds on Aug. 6 whenHoffman attended, though he sort ofwished it hadn’t been — some rainthat day, or any day for that matter,would have been a welcomed sight.“We are very much praying for rain,”he said.

As for the crops, “the sand spots arejunk now,” said Hoffman, “but the restpretty much looks OK.”

Hoffman grows full-season silagecorn and it’s currently “putting ears onand pollinating.” He plants between108- and 111-day corn, and this year’scrop is behind schedule. “I wouldn’twant to combine this corn,” he said.Instead, it “heads for the chopper,period.” Hoffman usually chops aroundlate August into early September; thisyear he predicted he wouldn’t be chop-ping until at least Sept. 15.

The soybeans, meanwhile, are “veryaverage,” Hoffman said, with “somereally good spots in the field and verybad spots in the field.” He was able toplant the beans on time and is happythat “the stand is very good.” He hadn’t

had the opportunity to go out andcheck for aphids in his beans recentlybut would do so soon.

On Aug. 8 Hoffman and his wife,Diane, were heading to the BrownCounty Fair in New Ulm to work atthe dairy booth. Making malts whileraising money for the local dairyorganization is something he looksforward to every year.

From Farmfest to the county fairand everything in between, August isa busy month for Hoffman. But a littlemoisture certainly wouldn’t rain onhis parade.

The HagensLake Mills, Iowa

If you weren’t atHagen farm Aug. 2you missed one heckof a party.

Jim Hagen and hisbride, Christy, cele-brated their wed-ding with a reception at the farm with150 of their closest family and friends.When The Land spoke with HagenAug. 7 he was happy to report that itdefinitely was a good party and thatthe “weather was perfect.”

Hagen had his soybean field aerialsprayed by Tim Steier on July 31 foraphids, which helped ensure that thebugs stayed away from the reception.“Sprayed all beans for aphids andfungicide,” he said.

The beans look “real good,” he said,and are still flowering and podding.Their farm “got a quarter to an inchlast week. ... If we got some more rainit will be good.”

The corn, too, could use some rain,Hagen said, although it has “all polli-nated real well — to the tip of the ear.”

Hagen and his wife decided to takein a Minnesota Vikings preseasongame Aug. 8 at TCF Bank Stadium inMinneapolis and will be heading tothe Iowa State Fair to take that in aswell. And if all of that wasn’t enoughexcitement, he said that “a new com-bine showed up (for the farm).” Funoutings and new farm toys all makefor a good time.

Hagen said the crops are “90 per-cent good to excellent, but we needmore rain.” He recalled that “1988was our last real drought,” a yearthat, for farming purposes, he doesnot care to repeat. ❖
