ALL THINGS
COUNTRY, INC.
From the Editor ...
Published Monthly at the
AlpacaBerry Farm in Palmer, KY.
From the keyboard of Pam Hedge
Rush, Rush, Rush ... Rest!
Well, somehow I’ve managed to get this edition of All Things Country to the printers.
It’s been rush, rush, rush around here for the past few days. It didn’t help that the day
I usually spend laying out the entire magazine, we had tornado warnings most of the
day. I try to do most of my work at night, well not last night. That was some of the
worst thunder I’ve heard around here in a while. No way was I turning on the computer during that storm!
Add on to that the fact that the Dave person got to experience his very first colonoscopy this morning and I had to be there for that. Put me behind a bit more. But,
things went okay and I got him back home and in bed before resuming work. And I’ve
managed to get it all done and not kept Mr. Eric up at the printers waiting for too
long. I’ll have to send along a thank you gift when Joe delivers on Monday.
Dave has been undergoing a few tests this past month. I’ve never experienced Dave
going to the doctor.Yep, that’s right. In 20 years, I think I can remember him visiting
the doctor once.Yes, ONCE in 20 years. Goodness, no wonder they want to run every test available on him. Thankfully most of them have come back pretty decent. He
does have a bit of skin cancer in his ear and we’ll get that taken care of this month. I
can’t say enough about Marcum and Wallace Memorial Hospital and their wonderful
staff.
•••••
On top of everything else, Relay for Life is TOMORROW night.Yes, tomorrow night.
That means I’d better get as much sleep as possible tonight, because once I get up in
the morning, it’s going to be a 24-hour shift I’ll be pulling. We look forward to Relay
for Life each year.Yeah, it’s a ton of work. And even more work. But, it’s the one night
of the year that Dave and I act crazy. No, I mean really crazy. I’m sure if you attend,
you’ll see what we mean.
•••••
It’s hard to believe that another school year has passed. At times I didn’t think they’d
ever get out, with all the snow closings this year. The kids gave up their Spring breaks
and went on days they normally don’t attend just to get out at a somewhat decent
time. Of course, I felt pretty bad for all the kids and parents last night as they were
having to be given tornado safety instructions as the ceremony started. Thank the
good Lord above, that wasn’t necessary and graduation went off without a hitch.
Well, as far as I know it did! We’ve enjoyed watching all the kids grow up these past 8
years of doing the magazine. It’s hard to believe some of them are graduating, but I’m
sure I don’t have to tell any parents that, do I?? It seems like it was just yesterday that
our Jennifer was graduating and that was clear back in 2000.
•••••
Dad is heading down to our house later this evening to perform the Cold Water
Challenge on Dave and I. We’ve both been challenged and we would never turn
down a challenge. It’s sure been fun watching all the videos. Thanks to everyone for
their support of Relay - or whatever charity they choose to donate to.
Blessings to you .... The Pam Person

I don’t go to the doctor unless I’m
pretty much forced to do so. In fact, besides a broken bone or two, I have always
been very healthy, or at least as healthy as
I could be. I always catch that darned cold
a couple of times a year, but besides that
I never really felt like I couldn’t medicate
myself back to healthy ‘ol Dave.

That changed a bit lately. I had felt
like I should look out for myself after
turning 50, especially since my mother
died at 51 from breast cancer. Well, it took
me three years to get this stubborn soul to
go, but I did it. I saw an advertisement for
Marcum and Wallace Memorial Hospital’s
new Lung Screening program and thought
I might qualify for it under some of their
guidelines. John Isfort and Jim Thacker
from Marcum and Wallace were both very
helpful. John explained the program to me
and put me in touch with Jim, who helped
me with insurance and getting the scan
scheduled.
I got busy for a few weeks and I
procrastinated, or as Pam says “chickened
out.” We were attending a Chamber function at The Twin last month and Susan
Starling asked if I was still interested in
doing a story on the lung scan, and well, I
had to say “yes.” After all, Pam was at this
meeting with me and she pretty much did
the ‘yes’ for me.
The appointment was made to visit
Donna Isfort at Estill Medical Clinic. I’ll
have to admit, I hate waiting rooms. That
might just be why I don’t visit doctors.
But, I understand they are busy and I can
always check out a copy of “All Things
Country Magazine” while I wait. My wait
on this day was very short.
The Lung Scan machine: it’s a big machine, but absolutely painless.
I just didn’t realize it would happen in the
next few hours.
The staff at the hospital were waiting on my arrival. They already had me
on their schedule and knew I was coming. My wait was again very short and I
could not believe how fast the scan went.
The lab technician was so polite and she
explained what was going to happen and
it only took five to ten minutes. She was
right too, I was back in my car and on my
way in no time at all. We are still waiting
on the results to come back at this time, so
are hoping that no news is good news.
Marcum and Wallace Memorial Hospital are top-notch in my book. I’m sure
I had known my blood pressure was

getting my appointment scheduled at
Marcum and Wallace Memorial Hospital’s You now know that I’m over 50 years
old. And thanks to my loving wife, as

going to happen, so I wasn’t real nervous. this magazine hits the press for printing,
I’ll be again visiting Marcum and Wallace Memorial Hospital for the dreaded
colonoscopy. This story shall be continued

Editor’s Note: Dave was screened more so
on diagnostics as opposed to screening to
allow for this story.

Committee recommends
projects to improve national
forest, surrounding lands
Our Front
Cover ..
WINCHESTER, KY – The Daniel Boone Resource Advisory Committee has recommended projects to improve roads,
trails and natural resources across several eastern Kentucky
counties.
The committee operates under reauthorization of the Secure
Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000.
The committee’s mission is to collaborate with local communities on special projects to benefit national forest resources.
“These individuals volunteer their time and service to support community interests, as well as the Daniel Boone National
Forest,” said Tim Reed, District Ranger and Designated Forest
Official for the committee.
“The advisory committee consists of 15 members. They are
Kentucky residents who represent various interests and expertise.”
Five projects were recently approved for implementation
totaling just over $99,000. These projects are funded with Secure Rural Schools Title II funds. Counties with national forest
lands may elect to receive a share of their state payment under
this title.
The project activities vary in scope, which may be implemented through Forest Service personnel, partnership agreements and contracts.
The projects approved by the committee included funds
for road improvement projects in McCreary, Leslie and Laurel
counties; a trail improvement project in McCreary County;
and the continuation of forest-wide treatments to help fight the
hemlock woolly adelgid, a non-native invasive insect threatening hemlock trees across eastern Kentucky.

Two Young Boys ....
Two young boys walked into a pharmacy one day, picked
out a box of tampons and proceeded to the checkout
counter.
The pharmacist at the counter asked the older boy, ‘Son,
how old are you?’
‘Eight’, the boy replied.
The man continued, ‘Do you know what these are used
for?’
The boy replied, ‘Not exactly, but they aren’t for me.
They’re for him. He’s my brother. He’s four.”
“Oh, really?” the pharmacist replied with a grin.
“Yes.” the boy said. “We saw on TV that if you use these,
you would be able to swim, play tennis and ride a bike.
Right now, he can’t do none of those.”

The “MACK”
Answers on
Page 27
By Susan Hawkins
The “Mack” is a hot topic of conversation in and around
Estill County these days. Why, you ask? It is because a group
of people, River City Players members, are spearheading the
campaign to acquire funding needed to purchase and renovate
the old theater building.

River City Players is a newly organized theater group. We
have performed two successful productions since introducing
ourselves in July 2013. Since our conception, River City Players’ vision has included purchasing the theater and working with
the community to help revitalize our economy by putting art and
cultural development to work. Estill County is ideally situated to
develop our tourism industry. I can and will get on my soap box
to say: “Hey world! We live in, or are from, the most beautiful
place on Earth!”
We raised the funds needed to pay for the architectural
survey completed May 20, 2014. Jack Stewart of Stewart Architecture, pllc, will complete line drawings and a rendering of the
Phase 1 renovation In-Kind. Now we begin the work of raising
the $50,000 needed to purchase the building.
The Mack will become a Community Theater, a Welcome
Center, and a Venue for Community Events. Artists and Craftsmen in Estill and surrounding counties will have a place to
The MACK Theatre in downtown Irvine, Kentucky.
display their work. A museum will house theater artifacts that
will attract movie and theater enthusiasts to our area.
We have fond memories of fun with friends, love found and
lost, and first kisses shared in the darkened auditorium of the
Mack. These memories have encouraged many of us to contribute to “The Mack Theater Fund”. No contribution is too small,
and future generations of folks going to “the show” appreciate

My client buys many rental properties, not always with

him a home when his wife called. I could hear her ask what
he was doing. “The real estate agent and I are having an

“Oh, thank God,” she said. “I thought she was selling

Quality is the Amish Way
By Pam Hedge
I took a trip a few weeks ago with Shirley Lowe from Clay
City and we went over to an Amish furniture building business on
the Bath/Menifee County line. I was fascinated by the way they
built their cabinets and came home to tell Dave all about it. I really
wanted to go back and take him with me to see their cabinet making
operation and was overjoyed when they called me to talk about
advertising. The trip was on!
Now, I won’t get in to the getting lost part. I’m sure my husband will share that with any of you that want to hear about it. But,
we found it - and enjoyed a nice drive at the same time. Millcreek
Cabinets, LLC is owned by brothers David and William Schwartz.
The brothers have a passion for quality and customer care from start
to finish. They will design and build you a kitchen to last a lifetime.
David and William moved to the Means, Kentucky area from
Indiana in 2010. They told me “Kentucky isn’t as flat as Indiana”
and they really enjoy the landscape here. David lives with his
parents in a beautiful home right next to their shop and William is
married and lives on the other side in an equally beautiful home.
They are part of the Amish that have called Kentucky home for
many years.
Yards to Paradise
A Swale Idea
By Max Phelps
I want to begin today’s discussion by first mentioning the
story title is not mis-spelled. When I’m finished I do hope the
reader thinks this is also a swell idea!
A swale is probably understood best if you will imagine a
sloping area of land, then imagine a depression coupled with a
small ridge to the downhill side of the depression. Dictionaries
might aid in other meanings, but for now, this is the only definition
that we’ll investigate and explain.
Millcreek Cabinets is located near Means, Kentucky.
Photos by Dave Severson
A number of times I’ve suggested a swale to a property owner
as a way to deflect water away from the home or some other
area where natural run-off is troublesome. Sometimes, a turning plow behind a tractor (or mule) can make a quick but crude
swale. Heavy machinery can make big swales to carry away large
amounts of water. And if done correctly, you can still use your
mower on the rise and dip of the swale. The swale in the yard that
is almost invisible can still work effectively to direct or deflect
storm water from where it’s not wanted.
While I talked with William about their beautiful woodwork,
Dave went with David to look around their shop. The cabinets are
made from oak or cherry, although they will work with whatever
kind of wood you would like. They don’t just do cabinets either.
There was a beautiful curio cabinet that they were working on, waiting to install the glass. And a beautiful table and chair set that was
in the works. Dave and I were both impressed with the quality and
care that they showed to their work.
But, what if we want the water to stay where it falls rather
than run off? As you all know, rainwater runs off steep slopes
very rapidly, eventually cutting rills and gullies and eroding much
of the topsoil, gradually producing a ruinous situation. To create
swales that will contain rather than direct away water you first
need to determine the contour of the land. Contour tillage and
contour plowing are concepts taught to future farmers to help them
be good stewards of the land.
All of the cabinets are built right there on site and then the
brothers take them to install them. “We can make most any kind of
furniture, even if you only have a picture of what you want. They
work on both new construction and remodeling jobs. They can even
give your kitchen a facelift by just re-facing your current cabinets.
Once you ascertain the lay of the land, dig (or plow, etc) a
furrow and flip the soil upside down a couple feet or more below
(down hill from) the furrow or ditch. This creates a little berm
that holds water—and it runs neither left nor right if you got the
contour of the land figured right.
We noticed from the time we arrived how much care they
show with their work and their shop was clean and organized. They
showed us how they operate all of their equipment without the use
of electricity. They have a diesel engine mounted in a room on the
right side of the building and a shaft running through the floor. All
the machines hook up to that shaft in the floor. They told us they
could run all of the machines in the building on 1 gallon of diesel
per hour. They also use air compressors to operate machinery. It
was truly a shop that any woodworking person would envy.
A curio cabinet waits for finishing, while a rack of finished doors
is drying. Such beautiful work.
This concept of creating a swale to hold or retain water helps
keep whatever rain actually falls where you need it—which is in
your soil. You plant the little ridges (hilling up soil around potato
plants should illustrate this) and the rainfall is all captured in the
trench or swale and slowly soaks into the soil. And at the bottom
of the little ridge is the roots of your potatoes, or whatever the
crop may be.
Another thing that really caught our eye was the last thing you
need on this earth. You are scratching your head, right? Well, David
and William took the cover off of one of their projects and it was
one of the most beautiful caskets I had ever seen. It was solid oak
and absolutely beautiful. They said for only about $200.00 more
they could do it in solid cherry. Wow.
If you are in the market for some homemade Amish furniture
or cabinets, please give Millcreek Cabinets a call. I’m sure you’ll be
pleased with the results.

Now, if you have a long slope hundreds of feet up and down,
you will probably need to have your contours actually drain ever
so slightly, so as not to have a ‘dam break’ during heavy rain
where one little swale erodes, and the one below washes out, and
the one below that washes out...and so on.
This solid oak casket was beautiful. They can make it in your
choice of woods.
From potatoes to flower beds to beets and carrots to strawberries, this “raised bed” with a little trench uphill to catch the water
so that it does not rapidly run away can enable a person to grow
a garden even in the desert. What rain comes down stays where
it’s needed. And if irrigation is used, all that water stays put and
penetrates the bottoms of the little raised beds or lower side of the
swale.
I discovered many years ago this phenomenon when growing
strawberries on a slope of poor clay soil. People discouraged me...
or tired to. But I dug dirt from the higher side of my strawberry
row so that my berries were on a little raised bed, and the little
ditch then caught the rain and kept it off my berries. Yet, the water
soaked into the raised rows from the bottom and kept the plants
sufficiently moist. A couple times I did irrigate. But it consisted
of running the garden hose to the high end of the row of berries,
and just letting the water run for awhile. The entire matted row of
plants all got the drink they needed. A little fertilizer in September
and poor clay subsoil yielded hundreds of gallons of delicious berries for four years or so.
Another practical experience came when using a sod cutter to
remove lawn grass for a path/walkway. The pieces of grass were
placed uphill from the path and also turned upside down. Several
of these chunks or strips of grass were stacked to create a raised
planting bed. Once the grass died and began to decompose, what
a wonderful planting medium. I can testify that the flowers and
other plants really liked their raised beds, and that the water from
the slope was captured by the swale above the flowers, keeping it
off the path and away from the home.
Perhaps you can think of ways to employ this swale concept
at your place. If you snap out of a dream or wake from a daydream
with a plan to create some swales in your yard or near your home,
you just may discover this is a wonderful practice. Try it on a
small spot at first if you are skeptical. Or do a little additional research on the subject and do some wonderful gardening or farming
on a small hilly or stony plot. If you’re not concerned about mowing or driving over the swales, you can probably make them more
productive and also be able to utilize steeper slopes for growing
some great vegetables, fruits or flowers.

Wilderness Wanderings . . .
By Bill Gordon
Stanton, KY
Tomatoes!
Right in the midst of my wilderness homestead sits a three
quarter acre patch of ground surrounded by a six foot high woven
wire fence topped by a row of bamboo poles, with gated entrance
on two sides. This rather imposing intrusion to the surrounding forest encloses our garden area; the focus of many hours of toil, many
hundreds of Mason jars full of preserved food, produce for the local
farm market, and the source of endless battles with wildlife over
who’s going to eat the ripe produce. Nearly splitting the garden in
half, are several neatly-staked rows of tomato plants. At the time
of writing they are just beginning to produce yellow flowers that
promise a bounty of luscious, juicy fruits in the weeks ahead. I am
so much looking forward to that first homegrown BLT that it has
prompted me to write about the tomato this month, and do a little
“nature detective” work about this fascinating garden staple.
First off, the tomato is a fruit, even though we eat it like a
vegetable, it’s still a fruit. Hey, nature detectives! Where do you
think the tomato plant originally came from? Most people think
Italy, since it is so prevalent in Italian cooking. It’s hard to imagine
an Italian cook without a tomato product of some kind at hand, but
no European ever saw a tomato before Cortez entered Mexico. The
tomato, or “Xitomatl”, is native to Mexico and South America. It
was widely believed to be poisonous, and was grown for decorative
purposes.
Seeds were carried back to Europe, and introduced to the
people there. The first Italian description of the tomato, written in
1554, described it as a “pomod’oro” or golden apple. Tomatoes at
that time were in fact yellow, and about the size of a cherry. It took
nearly two centuries of development for the Italians to raise bigger,
redder colored fruit; and to use that fruit in cooking. Its first use as
food was to be eaten raw as a salad vegetable. As European explorers ventured throughout the world tomato seeds went with them.
Tomato seeds arrived here with early colonial settlement. Although
some people would eat the fruit, many still believed the tomato
poisonous, and the cause of a variety of diseases, including cancer.
Well into the 1800’s the common name for the tomato was Cancer
Apple.
The factor that caused the start of the tomato’s widespread
use as a food product was the Civil War. Commercial canneries
began putting food rations into metal cans for soldiers in the field.
Cannery people learned that putting high acid foods into the rations
prevented spoilage of the tinned goods, and tomatoes were experimented with for use as an additive. They were added to canned
meats, peas, and beans; and soldiers soon acquired a taste for them.
After the war, their families were encouraged to continue using
tomatoes in the daily menu. Tomatoes soon acquired a new name;
the Love Apple. Remember back then most everyone was a farmer,
at least growing their own food. A person that liked the tomato for
its reddish color would save the seeds from the deepest red one
for next year’s plants. Someone wanting the tomatoes for soups or
juice would save the seeds from the juiciest ones. Many would save
the seeds from the biggest ones thinking them the best. Gradually
tomatoes came to be grown in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and
textures suited to particular uses.
The next time you are in your garden, take a minute to be a

and salads…and eating out-of-hand right in the garden.
real nature detective with a tomato plant. You’ll first notice that the
stems are fleshy and weak, and somewhat like a vine. The plant will
grow on the ground if left to its own. The tomato has an interesting
ability to take root at any place the stem touches the ground, making up for the weak stems that may get broken at any time. You will
quickly notice the distinctive odor about the plant, especially if you
bruise a leaf or cut a stem. The tomato plant manufactures a chemical called solanine, which is a natural insect repellent. This repellant is particularly offensive to insects that would be harmful to the
tomato plant. One insect that does not like to be anywhere near this
chemical solanine is the Asparagus Beetle. And get this: Asparagus
plants have the ability to repel soil nematodes, a soil-borne worm
that attacks tomato plants. Growing these two plants near each other
is mutually beneficial to both.
Gently hold a stem beneath a flower and turn it towards you.
When examined closely, you will see these yellow bell-shaped
flowers are really quite beautiful. They remind me of little lilies,
and have all the radiance of the noon day sun. Each flower has
five yellow petals that form the shape of a funnel. Behind them
is a ring of five green sepals. The sepals surround and protect the
flower bud before it opens. When you look inside the petals you’ll
see several string-like parts, called stamens, which produce pollen.
Behind these, and possibly hidden from view, is the pistil, the part
of the flower that produces seeds. Because the tomato flower has all
four parts; petals, sepals, stamens, and pistil; it is called a complete
flower, and is like many other common flowers in our yards and
gardens.
As insects search the tomato flower for nectar, they brush pollen from the stamens onto the pistil. The pollen fertilizes the egg

cell and triggers growth. When this occurs, it is a signal for the
petals to wither and die, and soon fall from the plant. Within a few
days you can see a small green swelling at the base of the flower.
Or, you can do some clever detective work and pick a flower base
off the plant and pull it apart with your fingernails. You will see a
teeny, tiny green tomato embryo just starting to grow, showing successful pollination. As this embryo develops, the fruit swells larger
and larger, and we will see the firm, green tomatoes growing a bit
larger each day. To most people the flowering stage goes by being
totally ignored, and only when the green tomatoes begin to swell
like grapes do we take keen interest, anticipating the day when we
see the fruit turning that luscious red, orange, or yellow. AAHHH!
The first tomato sandwich is close at hand! Ripeness is a signal for
us to eat the fruit, but to the plant it signals something completely
different. The seeds are now mature, and capable of reproducing
another generation of plants, so ripeness causes the fruit to become
soft, and drop from the plant to the ground, returning the seeds to
the soil for next year’s growth. And, we are not the only ones waiting for that delicious, juicy fruit. A variety of birds, mammals, and
reptiles will eat them, and act as nature’s gardeners. The seeds will
pass through their digestive systems (and ours) unharmed, to be
deposited with a ready supply of manure for future growth. Did you
know that tomato seeds can even pass through the sewage treatment
process and sprout new plants in fields where the sludge has been
spread?
Like me, you are probably anticipating that first warm, sunripened fruit of the season, to be picked and eaten right from the
vine in the garden. If you don’t have any tomato plants growing
this year, plan right now to try some next year. They are hardy and
versatile, and very forgiving: and all you need is a bucket of soil
and some sun. Tomatoes can be planted in buckets, flower beds,
hanging planters, Australian (upside down in “topsy-turvey” style),
in a bale of straw, or an old boot…even a cardboard box lined with
a trash bag will do. Tomatoes are a perfect “yard sale” crop. No,
not to sell, you will eat all you can grow. Give your kids a couple
bucks, stop at a yard sale, and let them find the funkiest, odd “containers” for growing tomatoes. Anything that will hold dirt for a few
months will do, and you’ll be surprised at how creative kids will
be. A twenty cent packet of heirloom Rutgers or Cherry tomatoes
from a discount store and you’ll be on your way to some tasty eating. There are hundreds of varieties to choose from, and it is fun
to sample some different kinds to find your personal preferences.
There’s the meaty Roma for super sauces, huge Beefsteaks for thick
sandwich slicing, yellow low acid ones and purple-colored ones,
there’s cherry, grape, and plum varieties, and some like Double
Rich that are high in Vitamin C and Caro Red with high levels of
Vitamin A. Whichever you choose, enjoy the fruit of your own
labor, even if it comes out of an old box full of dirt.
And take some time to enjoy the plant itself, …a pretty cool
plant in the garden world.

Ninety-two high school students to attend
Institute for Future Agriculture Leaders
Louisville, KY – Summer vacation may be only beginning for most students, but for ninety-two high school juniors the
emphasis on education continues. These students, from 60 counties
across the state, have accepted invitations to attend Kentucky Farm
Bureau’s (KFB) 29th annual Institute for Future Agricultural Leaders (IFAL), held in two locations this month.
IFAL is a unique five-day summer leadership conference that
highlights a variety of careers in agriculture while exposing high
school students to a preview of college life. Participants were
nominated by their county Farm Bureau board of directors with the
assistance of school personnel and youth group advisors. IFAL students are among the top in their class, plan to further their education
at the post-secondary level and have an interest in pursing a career
in agriculture.
During the week-long IFAL conference, attendees will gain
a better understanding of the nature and needs of the agriculture
industry, see how basic and applied science is utilized in agriculture and learn of the political process used to develop agricultural
policy. Participants will engage in team-building and recreational
activities, attend classes, hear from speakers focusing on the values
of leadership, social, communication and motivational skills, and
visit research farms and other agriculture-related industries. The
entire experience is wrapped in a college atmosphere as the students
live in dormitories, eat in university dining facilities and become
acquainted with life on a college campus in general.
To provide conference participants with a small-group atmosphere and greater ability to learn and engage in the activities
planned, IFAL is split into two identical sessions. The first is held
on the campus of Murray State University, June 15-19, and the
other is hosted at the University of Kentucky, June 22-26.
“We co-host the Institute for Future Agriculture Leaders as a
way to promote ag-related careers and leadership skills to Kentucky’s high school students,” said KFB Interim Young Farmer
Director, Scott Christmas. “Through our program, participants
are exposed to local agriculture businesses and engaged in farmfocused educational activities while receiving a unique preview of
life on a college campus.”

tree leaves in the wilted stage only. Cattle which ingest several
wilted leaves will be found dead near the tree. For this reason, cattle
producers should either move cattle from fields with several of
these trees, or get rid of the trees completely. Wild cherry trees and
livestock simply do not mix. Long story short, get rid of them, or
they will get rid of your cows.

Finally most of our gardens are starting to look like gardens.
Once all the tomatoes, corn and beans are planted, it is time to sidedress with nitrogen and get those plants growing.
Nitrogen is essential for leaf growth and fruit set. The problem with nitrogen however is too much of a good thing can result
in little or no fruit set. I have had several calls over the years of
tomatoes with no fruit or large pepper plants that did not fruit until
frost. The problem in these areas was excessive nitrogen fertilization. Timing of nitrogen is also important. Corn, for example, in
the field or garden, will have higher yields when side-dressed with
nitrogen when plants are near 12 inches tall. Other vegetable plants
like watermelon and squash need no additional fertilizer. In fact, additional fertilizer may increase vine growth and reduce fruit yield.
In most cases, a little dab will do you in making those garden plants
grow this summer. Stop by the Extension Office for your copy of
“Vegetable Gardening in Kentucky” which will give you individual
vegetable side-dressing recommendations.

A farmer rolls his hay in Powell County.
Any Indication???
When I was growing up my parents and grandparents always
looked at the locust trees this time of year. My dad would always
say: “If you have a bunch of blooms on the locust trees, you will
have a good crop year”. If this is any indication at all, if you look
at the locust trees bloom in my area, they are sparce, at best. Many
have no blooms at all.
The National Weather Service forecast calls for an unusually
hot and humid weather pattern for July and August. The forecast
tells us that summer will be just as harsh as our winter was from
January to March of this year. Hopefully all these forecasts will be
incorrect, and we will have enough rain to have a good crop year.
Al lot of people are depending on that this year.
Take Care of Your Cows this Month
Summer in Kentucky can be a trying time for beef cattle
producers and their cattle. When temperatures reach the 90’s,
cattle tend spend more time in the water than they do eating. When
they’re bathing, they’re not getting the nutrition they need to produce more milk or to produce more weight. June and July are hot
months that can cause a lot of stress on all our animals but basic
management techniques can be followed for the best success of our
new calf crop and the one to come in 2015.
Bulls were just recently turned out to the cows and are really
having a good time, but remember that bulls should be removed
from the herd by the end of the month of July. This will ensure that
your calves will be born next March, April and May-even though
the bull will not think it is such a good idea. It is better to have an
unhappy, love-lorn bull, than baby calves spread out all over the
year. A good bull pen or good-hearted neighbor can be very helpful
when separating the bull from the rest of the herd.
Make sure all your animals in the herd have access to plenty
of clean water this month, preferably near shade. Even though they
enjoy standing in the water, swatting the flies off their backs, too

The Powell County Farmers Market has opened with a few
local producers selling vegetable plants, strawberries and onions.
As the season progresses, more produce will be available. Senior
farmer’s market coupons are now available at the Powell County
Extension Office.
To be involved in the program and receive coupons you must
be 60 and over and have the following income requirements: One
person in a household: $1265.00 per month; Two people in a household $1705.00 per month; Three people in a household-$2144.00
per month and four people in a household $2584.00/month.
To apply for food coupons please bring verification of age
(drivers license, birth certificate, etc and a verification of weekly or
monthly income. A bank statement can serve as income verification.
Farmers’ market coupons can be used throughout the summer at any
approved farmers market for any locally grown product. Grocery
stores and other produce stands will not be able to accept farmers
market coupons.
If you are 60 years of age or over and meet these income
requirements, then stop by the Powell County Extension Office and
fill out the necessary paperwork to receive your coupons. Senior
farmers market coupons are a win/win program for both our seniors
and our farmers involved in our local market.
Please contact the Powell County Extension Office at 663-6405
for more details.
Rolls of hay waiting to be hauled away are a frequent
sight this time of year.
much water can lead to foot rot problems that are extremely hard to
deal with. Keeping water in a watering tank or limited access area
of a pond or creek, not only is a better idea for the environment, but
is better overall for the cattle. During this peak time of heat, make
sure all cows are getting at least 20 gallons of cool, fresh water each
day.
Maintain all salt and mineral feeders this month. Keep a good
range mineral mix available at all times.
To keep pinkeye problems down to a minimum keep pastures
clipped regularly and keep fly populations down. Place back rubbers over salt/mineral feeders or through gate ways where animals
must travel under. Sprays such as Insectrin, Permectrin or Pyrethrin
can be effective if applied to animals while they are being fed or
watered, but will have little residual effect with the constant showers we’ve had so far this summer. Always read and follow label
directions when using any farm chemical.
A thunderstorm in June can cause some farmers concern about
some of the trees in their pasture. Wild cherry trees can bring a land
owner a good deal of money in time, but if one branch splits and
falls over in the field during a thunderstorm, it can spell disaster for
the farm! Wilted wild cherry leaves contain a deadly poison that is

Avoid Blossom End Rot
Nothing can ruin a mouth-watering tomato more than reaching
for one on the vine only to find an ugly, flattened spot on it. If the
ugly spot is located on the fruit opposite the stem end, it is likely
blossom end rot, a disease caused by a lack of calcium that commonly occurs in tomatoes but can also affect eggplant, peppers and
many cucurbits.
Blossom end rot spots develop into dark brown, leathery
decays that may affect half of the tomato. Calcium is an essential
part of the chemical “glue” that binds cells together within the fruit.
When fruits are enlarging rapidly, sufficient amounts of calcium do
not reach the end of the fruit. This causes cells to come apart, resulting in a rot or decay in that area. Calcium does not move easily
from other plant parts, so any disruption in the plant’s uptake can
result in a deficiency.
Soils in Kentucky are rarely deficient in calcium, but water
plays a critical role in the plant’s uptake and distribution of calcium.
So maintaining an even supply of moisture is important in controlling blossom end rot. However, to be sure that a soil is not calciumdeficient, soil tests should be taken, and if needed, it can be applied
as lime prior to planting. If you need a soil test, contact our office
for details.
Irrigate plants as needed, and use mulch to conserve soil moisture. Irrigate on a consistent basis. Don’t allow plants to become
stressed from too much or too little water. Avoid wetting foliage
as much as possible as this could encourage fungal and bacterial
diseases to develop on the plant. Trickle or drip irrigation is an
excellent way of getting water to plants without the risk of wetting
the foliage or splashing soil onto the foliage which can also lead to
disease problems.
In addition, excessive amounts of ammonium tend to depress a
plant’s calcium uptake. Avoid using urea or fertilizers high in ammonium. Instead, choose fertilizers high in nitrate. Calcium nitrate
is an excellent nitrogen fertilizer, although it is more expensive than
other nitrogen sources.
Bagworms on Evergreens
Bagworm eggs hatch in late May and the tiny larvae crawled
out from the end of the bag in search of food. By using silk and bits
of plant material, they soon constructed a small bag around their
hind part that looks like a tiny, upright ice cream cone. As the larvae continue to feed and grow, they enlarge the bag enabling them
to withdraw into it when disturbed. Older larvae strip evergreens
of their needles and consume whole leaves of susceptible deciduous
species, leaving only the larger veins. The bag is ornamented with
bits of whatever type of vegetation they are feeding upon.
If only a few small trees or shrubs are infested, picking the
bags off by hand and disposing of them may afford satisfactory
control. This approach is most effective during fall, winter or early
spring before the eggs have hatched. When many small bagworms
are infesting evergreens, an insecticide may be needed to prevent
serious damage. The best time to apply an insecticide is while the
larvae are still small (less than 1/2-inch long). Small larvae are
more vulnerable to insecticides, and inflict less damage. Carefully
inspect susceptible landscape plants, especially evergreens, for last
year’s bags. Young bagworms are harder to see; look closely for
the small, upright bags which have the appearance of tiny ice cream
cones constructed of bits of plant material. Preventive treatment is
often justified on plants that were heavily infested with bagworms
the previous year. June is the best time to treat for bagworms.
Several products are available for homeowner and professional
use. For homeowners, conventional insecticides such as Sevin,
Bonide Eight, Bayer Multi-Insect Killer, Ortho Max Lawn and Garden Insect Killer, or the microbial insecticide Bacillus thuringiensis
(BT) provide satisfactory results. The BT products have very low
mammalian toxicities, but are only effective against younger larvae.
If large bagworms are present (more than about 3/4-inch long), a
conventional insecticide probably will provide better results. For
nursery and landscape professionals, other effective products include Astro, Decathlon, Ficam, Mavrik, Orthene, Pounce, Scimitar,
Talstar and Tempo. Foliage should be thoroughly wetted with the
insecticide spray in order to achieve thorough coverage. Trade
names are used as examples. No endorsement is intended, nor
criticism implied of similar products not named. Always read and
follow directions on the label.
For insect identification or more information, contact the Estill
County Extension Office at 606-723-4557. Educational programs
of the Kentucky Cooperative Extension Service serve all people
regardless of race, color, age, sex, religion, disability or national
origin.

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and
complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday.
“I’ve gone for 30 years now,” he wrote, “and in that time I have
heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can’t
remember a single one of them. So, I think I’m wasting my time
and the preachers are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all.”

Why go to Church?
“I’ve been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has
cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall
the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this.
They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my
work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!” When you are DOWN
to nothing..... God is UP to something! Faith sees the invisible,
believes the incredible and receives the impossible! Thank God for
our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!
