By R.D. AalandGOODHUE Mrs. Theodore
(Mary) Duden was the first ownerof of a Christmas cactus that isnow in the possession of MarcyBuck. It is not known when Dudenfirst received this plant, but it wasin her house during the secondWorld War.
Christmas cactus has been inthe family for almost 70 years
When she passed away in 1953,the plant was passed on to herdaughter, Elise Duden, who caredfor the Christmas cactus until 1985,when her niece, Mrs. Murland(Marcy) Buck inherited the plant.Buck would put the plant outsideevery spring, and she would bringit back into the house over win-
ter. One year, shortly after shehad taken custody of the plant,rabbits ate all the leaves off thecactus. She was sure that wouldbe the end of her plant, but it cameback. After the rabbit scare, shewould put the cactus outside, butit would go under the porch. Whenthe plant is outside, it gets wateronly when it rains.
In 2010, Buck transferred theChristmas cactus to a larger pot,and now she adds a little fertilizerin the spring. With more area forthe roots to grow, so has the cac-tus. Buck has five children, andthere is now a discussion as towho will be the next caretaker.After Christmas in 2013, her daugh-ters are planning on taking a fewleaves from the plant and they willstart their own legacy. There aremany reports of Christmas cactiliving for fifty to seventy years.The Buck cactus is at least 68 yearsold.
Christmas cacti are popular holi-day gift plants, but they are alsothe subject of frequent debateamong gardeners. There appearsto be confusion about these uniquetropical cacti regarding care, main-tenance and, especially, on howto get them to re-bloom. The fol-lowing tips address the most fre-quently asked questions.
The Christmas cacti will keeptheir blossoms longer in coolertemperatures. Keep the plant in awell lit location away from draftsfrom heat vents, fireplaces or othersources of hot air. Drafts and tem-
perature extremes can cause theflower buds to drop from the plantbefore they have a chance to open.
The Christmas cactus is a tropi-cal type plant, but it needs somewater; in fact, it may drop flowerbuds if the soil gets too dry. Theplants will wilt when under droughtstress. Water thoroughly when thetop soil feels dry to the touch. Thelength of time between wateringwill vary with the air tempera-ture, amount of light, rate of growthand relative humidity.
The plant does not particularlyneed to be fertilized while in bloom,but most gardeners enjoy the chal-lenge of keeping the plant for re-bloom the next year. While plantsare actively growing, use a bloom-ing houseplant-type fertilizer andfollow the label directions on howmuch and how often to feed.
While the Christmas cactus canadapt to low light, more abundantblooms are produced on plants thathave been exposed to more lightintensity. Keep your plants in asunny location indoors. Plants canbe moved outdoors in summer,but keep them in a shady or semi-shady location. When its time tobring the plants back inside in thefall, slowly adjust the plants tolife indoors by gradually increas-ing the number of hours they spendindoors each day.
Well-drained soil is a must forChristmas cacti. Use a commer-cially packaged potting mix forsucculent plants, or mix your ownby combining two parts plain pot-Marcy Buck is the third generation family member to own this Christmascactus, which is at least 68 years old.
ting soil with one part clean sandor vermiculite.
Pruning your Christmas cactusafter blooming will encourage theplant to branch out. Remove a fewsections of each stem by pinchingthem off with your fingers or cut-ting with a sharp knife. These sec-tions can be rooted in moist ver-miculite to propagate new plants.
Christmas cacti will bloom ifgiven long uninterrupted dark pe-riods, about twelve hours eachnight. Begin the dark treatmentsin about mid-October to have plants
in full bloom by the holidays. Youcan place the plants in a dark closetfrom about 8 p.m. - 8 a.m. eachnight for six to eight weeks oruntil you see buds forming. Christ-mas cacti will also bloom if theyare subjected to cool temperaturesof about 50 to 55 degrees, elimi-nating the need for the dark treat-ments.

SternsSide ofthe Story
Merry Christmas from The Real Santa
Many years ago, at the SternRanch, my son Cole was growingup in the more than festive atmo-sphere in our home. Now you mustrealize that he had three older sis-ters, all of them wanting Christ-mas to be special for the younglad. They wanted him to get ex-cited just like they did. They wantedthe days to seem like forever topass as we got closer to ChristmasEve. They wanted him to be ableto hear the prancing hooves on theroof. (Kids, dont read this nextpart.) So, when I was gettingdressed up to go downtown andbe The Real Santa at GoodhuesCommunity Christmas, and he sawme, the wheels started turning, andI became The Real Santa.
Now, in his mind, he was theluckiest kid on the planet. He wasSantas son! And this allowed for
some unusual pre-holiday circum-stances. When Deb told him thatif he wanted a certain gift, he wouldhave to ask Santa. He replied, Ialready told dad!...and he expectedthe gift would be there. Fortunatelyfor me, he never asked for thatCorvette, or a real, live pony, or amillion dollars. And the glow onhis face when he was downtownwith the other kids his age to seeSanta, was worth every second ofmy make believe bearded, redsuited experience.
Im not sure how long he be-lieved in Santa, and I say that be-cause I still do. I remember like itwas yesterday, when Deb, beingan honest mother, told Heidi thatSanta was not real. (Just kidding,kids. He is as real as the EasterBunny and the Tooth Fairy.) I wascrushed! How could any mothercrush the Spirit of Christmas likethat? (And Heidi was only a jun-ior in high school!...Really, shewas much younger.)
There is still something magi-cal about little kids believing insomething as big as Santa. Thatswhy I never gave it up. And to
this day, I enjoy watching the littlechildren, scared to death of thatbig man dressed in red. That is,until they sit on his lap, or standby his side, and tell him exactlywhat they want. And, if it is agood Santa, he even knows whatpage in the catalog, or what aislein Fleet Farm, holds the toy oftheir dreams. Its a lot like TheChristmas Story. Sometimes, youjust have to believe.
And for me, whenever I hearthat some poor family, miracu-lously found a thousand dollars inan envelope just before the worstChristmas ever, and all of thekids got just what they wished for,I know that there is a real Santaout there some place, watchingover everyone, and making surewe know who has been naughtyor nice by the gifts they receive.
May all of your gifts this yearbe special, and on sale (You dontwant to break Kris Kringle!) andall the right size. From me and myfamily, we wish you a great Christ-mas filled with memories and won-derful gifts and special people.Merry Christmas, and God bless.

The art of communications
I write, you read. You speakand I listen. And then the reverse you write and I read. I speak andyou listen. I was in Toastmastersfor twenty-seven years. Obviously,it was a good experience. I learnedto focus my thoughts, to write andexpress myself as clearly as pos-sible. And sometimes just for fun,to be obtuse and misleading, tokeep you guessing. I also have thehabit in long discussions of re-stating the obvious. For some, thishabit may be a waste of time. ButI have a reason behind and driv-
ing my madness.We all want to have as big a
vocabulary as possible. Yet lookat our everyday vocabulary. Itconsists of about 500 words withover 2,500 meanings. Even if weget a technical job and it has cer-tain words with special meanings,we dont increase our vocabularyby a lot when we add the newwords. Even the new words havemultiple meanings. Yet, somehow,we communicate our thoughts al-most 100% to each other.
Here is an example of multiplemeanings the word cool. Wecould be writing about tempera-ture, or relationships, or attitudesabout people, or other coolness.Our spelling rules help convey ourintended meaning, assuming wespelled the words correctly. Doyou know the difference in suffix
meanings for some words? De-pendant is a person, while de-pendent is a relationship. The twowords are pronounced nearly thesame unless you are emphasizingthe difference. Part of the schoolprincipals job is to enforce theprinciples of good behavior.
English, especially AmericanEnglish, is a complex and struc-tured language. In some languages,prepositions are part of a wordand not a separate word. Usingthe correct preposition becomescritical in English. We use En-glish without thinking about theforms, parts of speech, and how tostructure a sentence. Our writingstyle also conveys our excitement.The next time you read somethingor listen (listening is harder), watchthe length of the sentences. Short,simple sentences build excitementwhile long, compound ones slowand cool (What is the meaning ofcool in this sentence?) us down.
When we write technical pa-pers, the authors deliberately uselong, compound, and complexsentence structures. This style isfalsely based on the belief thatlong sentences are equivalent tobig vocabularies. (Theyre not!)The editors complain that shortsentences are conversational andtherefore should not be part of atechnical paper. Ask an experi-enced writer about technical writ-ing as to the purpose of the paper.It really is to communicate thetechnical ideas being presented.Then ask, Which is more effi-cient: long, complex sentences orshort, simple ones? Think aboutthis question, and the answer isshort, simple statements. Most ofthe mystery of technology is thesentence structure used to explainthe concepts of the specific tech-nology. Until next week.

By Paul MartinRED WING Negotiation and
compromise led to the passage ofa raft of amendments to theGoodhue County mining ordinancethat left commissioners and Savethe Bluffs campaigners content.A public hearing and series of votestook place at the Goodhue CountyBoard of Commissioners meetingof December 5. Staff, commis-sioners, and protestors all look towestern Wisconsin, and are de-termined to avoid repeating theexplosive and largely unregulatedgrowth of huge mines that hasoccurred there.Four points of compromise
Commissioner Dan Rechtzigelhas been central to the process,since he serves on the PlanningAdvisory Commission (PAC), andis also this years county boardchair. In October, he met with Savethe Bluffs spokesman and RedWing businessman Keith Fossen.They set out four action pointsthey could agree on. These cov-ered banning mining within a mileof housing areas, or the Missis-
sippi; forbidding most chemicalsused to process and wash sand;and setting harsh penalties for mineoperators who violate county rules.
The Mining Committee and thePAC have since weighed in, and amodified list came up for a vote.Changes to the four points reflectedother concerns of the board andthe PAC. They wanted to avoidconflicting or overlapping regu-lations. They wanted to leave asmuch as possible of the setting ofpollution standards and best prac-tices to the state, with its muchgreater resources. And they wereset on safeguarding the small ag-gregate mines that dot the county,are vital for road maintenance andare much less of a pollution threat.Protect small-scale mines
The meeting heard from two menwho sit on both the Mining Com-mittee and the PAC. Bernie Overbysaid, There are three or four bigissues we have kept in mind. Theordinance must be written for allof Goodhue County. There areplaces in the county where sandshould not be mined, but there areothers where landowners shouldhave the opportunity to derive rev-enue from their land. And the min-ing ordinance covers all mining,so we must not limit aggregatemining, on which counties andtownships depend for affordablerock for their roads.
Howard Stenerson, who is the
only mineowner on both commit-tees, said, The ordinance asamended will make it much harderand more expensive to open ag-gregate mines. We mineownerscan live with that, but we will haveto pass those costs on. Rock willcost a lot more.Decision time
Lisa Hanni, Director of LandUse Management, set a raft of pro-posed motions before the board.The first vote confirmed the enddate of the county moratorium onmining applications as March 6,2014.
Next came the four points agreedupon by Fossen and Rechtzigel inOctober. The board agreed to banmining activities within one mileof cities, R-1 (rural housing) zonesand campgrounds. They agreed,as a compromise, to ban the use offlocculants in washing and pro-cessing sand, but to allow the useof dry chemicals. Flocculants arechemicals that cause sediments tosettle out of the mined sand, butare believed to be a major causeof pollution in groundwater. Min-ing companies are often secretiveabout what chemicals they use.Protection for sensitive waters
The other two points were al-tered more in discussion. The PACand Mining Committee votedagainst banning mining activitieswithin one mile of the Mississippi,said Hanni, because that would
not protect most of the Great RiverRoad in the county, nor other sen-sitive waters. The Great RiverRoad follows Hwy 61, and is of-ten more than a mile from the river.It is important for recreation andtourism. Hanni recommended in-stead a ban within 1,000 feet of allpublic waters. Since public wa-ters have been defined by the state,this would be easy to define andenforce, she said. It would alsoprotect almost all of the Great RiverRoad.
Rechtzigel said, So long as itonly covers silica sand mining,not all mines.
County Attorney Steve Betcherforesaw a succession of difficult,complex, technical decisions. Thetime to take a decision on thesewater corridors is now.
Expert advice came from BeauKennedy, of Goodhue County Soiland Water District, who noted thatgroundwater pollution is very hardto predict, and almost impossibleto control.
Both bans passed by a four toone vote. Commissioner TedSeifert voted no, saying he hatedtoo much regulation, and doubted
there would be much effect ontourism.Staff to draft effective regulations
Finally came the subject ofharsh penalties. Commission-ers agreed with Betcher that thiswording was not the best, and couldeven look as if the county waspicking on a group of concerns.Board and staff were both unhappywith fines that huge mining com-panies could take in their stridewhile continuing to operate out-side the ordinance as has report-edly happened at several locationsin Wisconsin. Staff were directedto draft effective regulations.

By Marilyn AndersonSince reporting several ways to
donate or volunteer this holidayseason in an article two weeks ago,additional information has beenreceived about two programs.Packing for the Weekend
As previously announced, theBank of Zumbrota has cash dona-tion boxes at each bank locationfor the Packing for the Week-end Program. Monetary donationscan be dropped off through Janu-ary 3, 2014. Through the program,Zumbrota-Mazeppa Schools sendschild-friendly food home on thelast day of the week in student
backpacks. This program is of-fered, without charge, to qualify-ing children.
Martech Services Company inMazeppa, in their efforts to helppeople in the local communities,has announced they will matchthe Packing for the Weekendfunds collected in the Bank ofZumbrota donation boxes up to$2500.
Last year marked the beginningof the backpack program. Dona-tions totaled $3599 last holidayseason.
Donations made by check shouldbe made to United Way of WGP
with ZM Packing in the memoline. (Packing for the Weekend isan extension of the United Way ofGoodhue, Wabasha and PierceCounties.)Turkey Trotfood shelf donations
The fourth annual Turkey Trotheld Thanksgiving morning to ben-efit the Zumbrota Area Food Shelfexceeded event organizers expec-tations. According to LaurieBrengman, Almost 150 peoplewith warm hearts came out on achilly Thanksgiving morning tothe Covered Bridge. Donationstotaled $1245 and 388 pounds of
food! This was a significant in-crease from the 2012 event when80 registered walkers, runners,bikers, trikers, and strollers turnedout, and monetary donations of$665 and 314 pounds of food werecollected.
This year, the trotters enjoyedart work on the trail by Calen andKacey Scholl. Gary Ofstie thankedthe crowd for helping fill theshelves at the food shelf as theneed continues to grow. Ofstie,local food shelf treasurer and boardmember, states money can be usedto purchase food and items at a
Additional holiday donation opportunities in the areavery good price at Channel One.Channel One is a local food shelfand regional food bank servingsoutheast Minnesota and westernWisconsin located in Rochester.Money is also used toward rentand utilities.
In addition to the great resultfrom the Turkey Trot, new groups,such as card clubs and birthdayclubs, have recently begun donat-ing to the food shelf. Some indi-viduals have also begun donatingmonthly. The additional donationshave somewhat eased his concernsabout whether there would beenough money and food over the
holidays as needs and expenseshave continued to grow. The gen-erosity of people of the area justamazes me, Ofstie said.
For those who were unable toattend the Turkey Trot, cash do-nations can be sent to: ZumbrotaArea Food Shelf, PO Box 43, Zum-brota, MN 55992. Cash and fooddonations can also be dropped atthe food shelf on the first Mondayof the each month from 11 a.m. tonoon.
