facebook: social media for the ages
After its inception in 2004, Facebook, for Generations X and Y, ushered in an era of globalized oversharing; privacy was out, narcissistic voyeurism was
in. Now, however, the social media juggernaut that inspired the births of Twitter, Instagram, Vine, Snapchat
and WhatsApp, to name a few, is reportedly falling
down the “uncool” spiral.
According to two different studies, one conducted
by British anthropologist Daniel Miller, the other by
the Pew Research Center, teenagers are spending less
time on Facebook and more on other social media
sites. Miller, in a controversial and well-publicized
statement, wrote “Facebook is dead and buried...
[Teenagers] are even embarrassed to be associated
with it.” Similarly, the Pew Research Center, which
surveyed 802 teenagers between the ages of 12 and
17 for a September 2012 study, noted that the younger
generation is drifting to other platforms. The reason?
Older users have taken over Facebook.
When the social-networking site first became popular, college students joined in droves. Those same
students are now adults, posting engagement and
wedding announcements, family photos and workrelated triumphs and woes. After Facebook opened to
the public in 2006, baby boomers then hopped on the
trendy train. For Generation Z-ers, Facebook’s hefty
adult population is now treated with something akin
to amused chagrin.
“My grandma tries so hard,” Mound City R-2 freshman Kaitie Smith said about her family’s Facebook
usage, “[but] my mom’s not that bad.”
Likewise, Mound City R-2 senior Lily Grant said,
“A lot of older people are starting to use it.”
For the teenagers who do continue to use Facebook,
it’s a love-hate relationship; judging by anecdotal
evidence, the site is permeated with those past their
prime and copious amounts of drama, but it is just too
hard to leave. Facebook is addictive. Both Smith and
Grant, for instance, check the site repeatedly throughout the day, thanks to easily accessible cell phones
and tablets.
“I’m on it two hours per day,” Smith estimated. “It’s
just constant.”
Grant said, “I’m on it every day, multiple times per
day...I check my notifications and reply to them.”
The two teens, however, also use Twitter, and Smith
likes Snapchat, while Grant prefers Instagram, which
Facebook bought in April 2012 for $1 billion in cash
and stocks. The major draw, though, for teenagers to
remain on Facebook? It really does put the “social” in
City taxes no longer so taxing
“Most cities are now having counties doing
the collecting...and the public likes the
convenience of paying one bill.”
- City Clerk Patsy Smith
Mound City residents are
required to purchase city
stickers from City Hall for
any vehicle that is owned,
leased or otherwise used by
a resident. Penalties will be
added starting Saturday, Feb.
1. Additionally, personal
property taxes must be paid
before a city sticker can be issued. Taxes may be paid to the
Holt County Collector.
In an effort to streamline the tax-paying process, Holt County has
taken over collecting personal property and real estate taxes for every city in the county, with the exception of Corning, starting with
the 2013 tax season. Now, Mound City, MO, taxpayers need only
write one check for the entire year.
“It was a good time to do it,” Mound City City Clerk Patsy Smith
said of the switch. “Most cities are now having counties doing the
collecting...and the public likes the convenience of paying one bill.”
While the transition from city to county has been smooth (“[Holt
County Collector] Donna Cotton was very helpful,” Smith said),
Mound City continues to collect both taxes for years prior to 2013
and special tax bills, which are levied for five areas: general purposes, the library, parks, street lights and health. According to Smith,

Holt County
Commission discusses
“Souperbowl” EEZ, 2014 budgets
supper
The Christian Fellowship
Church of Mound City, MO,
will be hosting its annual
“souperbowl” meal on Sunday, Feb. 2, following morning services. The meal is free
and open to all, though some
may want to bring additional
fingerfood or dessert.

The Craig C.T.A. will host
a soup supper from 5 p.m. to
7:30 p.m. prior to the CFXMound City basketball game
on Friday, Feb. 7, in the Craig
R-3 cafeteria. The menu will
include chili or vegetable
beef soup, relishes, pie and
tea or coffee. Free will donations will be accepted, and
proceeds will go toward the
C.T.A. Scholarship Fund.
social media.
“It’s a good way to keep connecting with friends,”
Grant said.
Facebook is also the place to go to find out about
parties, hangouts or any kind of social activity. But
access to such inclusive/exclusive information has
had its own side effects. In recent years, the flurry of
photo albums, events and constantly updated statuses
has led to “FOMO,” the fear of missing out, a trend
pointed out by magazines Marie Claire and GQ. On
another level, the promotion of achievements (new
house, new spouse, new baby), has led to the newly
coined “Facebook Envy.”
Regardless of the pitfalls of Facebook — the presence of mom and dad, grandma and grandpa, the
onslaught of party pics and self-congratulatory announcements — investors and heavy users can rest
assured that the site everyone loves to hate is here to
stay, for now. Facebook’s overall U.S. membership
has increased by 23 percent, or 33 million, in the last
three years, The Exchange reported. While teens are
attracted to other platforms, very few have actually
deactivated their profiles and abandoned Facebook
completely.
“I’m still going to use it,” Grant said.
The Holt County Commission met during January to discuss, among other issues, the establishment of an Enhanced
Enterprise Zone (EEZ) and budgets for 2014.
During the first meeting of the month, on Monday, Jan.
6, the Commission convened to go over budgetary matters.
Road and Bridge Supervisor Daryl Biermann and Sheriff
Scott Wedlock were present to discuss departmental funds.
All financial information was included in the “Budget Message,” which was published in the Jan. 23 issue of Mound City
News; figures and items discussed were not provided in the
meeting minutes. In addition, at the same meeting, Wayne Flanary, agronomist with the University of Missouri Extension,
provided an update on activities and meetings planned for the
next few months.
On Wednesday, Jan. 8, the Commission met again, this time
to iron out details regarding the Enhanced Enterprise Zone
(EEZ), which would allow for the establishment of a lucrative
wind farm in Holt County. Scott Zeimetz of Element Power
and Assessor LaDonna Jones also joined the discussion. The
Commission voted to proceed with a blight study, a requirement for the formation of an EEZ. Zeimetz will locate a third
party to conduct the study, and Element Power, not the Commission, will cover the costs. At the conclusion of the EEZ
discussion, the Commission examined the 2014 budget with
Jones.
The Commission took additional concrete steps toward
establishing an EEZ on Monday, Jan. 13. Element Power’s
Zeimetz, this time accompanied by Michael Arndt, was in atten-

Big Lake resident to promote region
Holt County residents are
heading to Great Northwest Day
in Jefferson City, MO, on Tuesday, Feb. 4, and Wednesday, Feb.
5, to advocate for the area. Big
Lake, MO, resident Steph Miller-McCann, in particular, has a
lot to say.
“I was asked to be the chairperson for Holt County; they
were just trying to find the biggest mouth,” Miller-McCann
joked.
In all seriousness, however,
Miller-McCann will address
several hallmarks of the county,
including the Mill Creek Wind
Farm proposal, the local Mound
City winery, Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge and the
Waterfowlers’ Hall of Fame. Her
primary cause, though, which
she hopes to bring to the attention of Missouri legislators, is
Big Lake State Park.
The State Park originally
closed after suffering extensive damage in the 2011 flood.
In November 2013 the Department of Natural Resources and
Missouri State Parks announced
Construction at Big Lake State Park - Is scheduled to last
that Big Lake State Park would
until 2015, a plan that doesn’t sit well with Big Lake resident
Steph Miller-McCann. “[I hope they start] getting the park open
sooner rather than later,” she said.

Mound City License Office
contract still up for bid
The Missouri Office of Administration is still accepting
management contract bids for
the Mound City, MO, License
Office; according to Michelle
Gleba of the Missouri Department of Revenue, no applications were filed by the previous
Friday, Jan. 3, 2014, deadline.
Individuals and groups who
would now like to submit a bid
must do so by Friday, Feb. 14.
The Request for Proposal
(RFP) form is available on the
Missouri Department of Revenue website.
In the 2013 fiscal year, more
than 10,000 transactions were
conducted at the Mound City office, generating $34,044 in agent
processing fees.
The Missouri Department of
Revenue oversees 182 license
offices that are operated by independent agents, and all of the li-
cense offices were put up for bid
under the competitive procurement process in 2009. Contracts
were awarded for one year with
three one-year renewal options.
Adjusting the competitive procurement process for these offices was one of the first actions
of Gov. Jay Nixon’s administration, and the move overhauled
the way local motor vehicle and
driver’s license offices were
awarded.
Bids will be evaluated on areas such as the expertise of the
personnel proposed, methods
proposed for performing the services, and whether the individual
or entity is a not-for-profit, political subdivision, a Missouri
Certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), a Women Business Enterprise (WBE) or a Missouri Service-Disabled Veteran
Enterprise.
Tax tips for 2013 filing
As taxpayers are preparing to
file their returns, the Missouri
Department of Revenue has
some reminders and tips. First,
the Internal Revenue Service
will begin processing individual
tax returns on Friday, Jan. 31.
The sooner a payer files a return,
the quicker he or she will get a
refund, though the final deadline
is Tuesday, April 15. Second,
taxpayers would be wise to consider the following:
• File electronically; it is
the best way to avoid errors. Almost all tax preparers provide an e-filing
service, or individuals can
purchase tax preparation
software. Many citizens
may also qualify for free
electronic filing through
the Federal Free File Alliance (www.freefile.irs.
gov). Nearly 80 percent
of Missourians are now
filing electronically.
• Use electronic forms.
Even Missourians who
do not choose to e-file
can still save time and
reduce errors by using
electronic forms, which
can then be printed out
and mailed. Missouri tax
forms for 2013 are available at http://dor.mo.gov/
forms. The forms can be
completed in more than
one session and include a
2-D barcode to help speed
•
•
up the processing of the
forms after the Department receives them. Direct deposit of a refund
is also an option for those
using the 2-D forms. As a
warning, taxpayers should
not save drafts of confidential forms on public
computers, such as those
in a library, where access
is open to all.
Ask questions online
or over the phone. The
Missouri Department of
Revenue answers many
questions about filing
tax forms at www.dor.
mo.gov. Show-Me State
taxpayers may also call
(573) 751-3505 from 8
a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays or email the Department at income@dor.
mo.gov with any questions.
Ask questions in person.
The Department has tax
assistance centers in seven cities: Cape Girardeau,
Jefferson City, Joplin,
Kansas City, St. Joseph,
St. Louis and Springfield.
Office hours are 8 a.m. to
5 p.m., Monday through
Friday. Contact information and office addresses
are available at http://

Remembering
“You’ve got mail.”
Remember when that was what you
heard when you opened up email on
your computer? I first heard it when I
had Windows 95, and I thought, probably along with a lot of others, that next
to the invention of the wheel, that was
it. A big step in the new way of communicating with whomever you wanted
instead of waiting for a regular letter. It
was almost instant and, at first, private,
just between you and the one you sent
the email to. Eventually the electronic
mail (email) turned in to “everybody’s”
mail when hackers got into your system
with various viruses and when you also
began to get a lot of unwanted email
that was the type you would have to
spend your time deleting. When the laptop came into being, a computer small
enough to carry with you, for awhile
they were more a new type, kind of a
social status to say, “Hey, I got one, it
can do this and that,” and the race was
on to make this another part of our lives,
whether you wanted it or not.
Even now, with all the cell phones,
smart phones of all types that can do
anything from finding useful information to being like the old party lines
to look up and gossip on anything and
anyone, the laptop is in the running as
the trend is to have everything done online. You know, save paper, save trees,
go online. That is asked and sometimes
required in most everything, from pay-
ing bills to your bank account, even
though every day something hits the
news about the taking of your personal
private life, your identity, credit cards
and, in some cases, your credit ratings
and some hard-earned savings along
with it. All this “online” business has
caused and brought about a new way
to try and correct problems that come
up: the recorded-answer system. You
pick out the number you have for your
specific problem, only most of the time
you find out after holding for the next
available representative that you have
another number yet to call. On getting
the last problem I had, I figured out that
with all the time I spent holding on the
line, I could’ve expected Johnny Fry,
when he carried the Pony Express mail,
to be almost to Colorado. At least it felt
like it.
To get mail, however you get it
where you are, is one of the most important times of the day. To get a letter
in your hand and to be able to put it in
your pocket or lay it down on the table
or the dashboard in the car sure beats
looking at it on a screen and having to
print it to keep it forever like you can
a handwritten one that may have had
a perfume scent even. Mail call in the
service could sure change your attitude,
sometimes to happy and other times to
more homesick than ever. I’ve watched
the reactions of some of the guys and
watched the expressions of the “Dear
Eugene Poynter
John” letters that shouldn’t have ever
gotten there, but they did. The saddest
ones were the guys who stood back
watching others get mail when they
know they wouldn’t get any. Some
of the other guys would let them read
theirs. Glad we didn’t have to depend on
a laptop, where we were.
I’m one who would rather have a paper trail, get a bill in the mail, pay by
mail, get my bank statement in the mail,
get letters from family and businesses by
regular mail, file everything in the proper place and forget them until needed.
In looking up some of the genealogy on
our family, some of the best parts, like
stories of different kinds, were found in
old letters after the passing of one of our
relatives. One long letter we found was
written from Kentucky, several years
before the Civil War was started, and it
filled in spaces that were blank up until
then. By the way, the penmanship was
outstanding; it was written by a lady.
I have heard the answer to all of this
electronic part of our lives is just part
of the “times,” but that doesn’t mean
it’s the best for us all. I’m going to sign
my name to this letter by hand, not
like a couple weeks ago when I went
through the so-called “electronic signature.” Sign of the times. Just watch for
mail. Hopefully it will be “Here comes
the mailman!” instead of “You’ve got
mail.”
Happenings at Tiffany Heights
During the week of Monday, Jan. 20, residents embraced
the winter weather by creating themed crafts and staying
inside the warmth of Tiffany Heights in Mound City, MO,

School board meets, considers wind farm
The Mound City R-2 School Board
met on Wednesday, Jan. 22, to discuss the
wind farm proposal and student activities.
The Board also held a public hearing, in
accordance with state statute, to allow
attendees to comment on the 2014-2015
school calendar start date.
Regarding the wind farm, the Board listened to a presentation by Gary Myers, an
attorney from St. Joseph, MO. The wind
farm, which will be located in southeastern Holt County, will potentially touch
the Mound City and Nodaway-Holt R-7
school districts once the project reaches
its second phase of development. The
Board voted unanimously to retain Myers
so he could help resolve any tax abatement issues between the taxing school
districts, the Holt County Commission
and Element Power.
The other issue discussed at the meeting
involved a potential softball cooperation
agreement (co-op) between Mound City
and South Holt R-1. Freshman Sydney
Ireland presented the issue to the Board,
but members ultimately decided not to
take action on the agreement. Based on
Title IX, the co-op would place the district out of compliance by putting more
of an emphasis on girls’ sports than boys’.
Other agenda items involved students
Sara Murphy and Roanne Bonke reporting on the art club, and teachers Krista
Burge and Lexi Heck discussing activities in their positions; in Burge’s secondgrade class of 20 students, she has been
using acuity testing to make the transition
to common core standards, while Heck
has been working with six students in
her special education class. The Health
Service Program and the Comprehensive
School Improvement Program (CSIP)
report were evaluated. A card from Mrs.
Forehand thanking the Board for the
Christmas luncheon was also shared.
In other school news, the Board approved the 2014-2015 school calendar.
Korey Miles, high school principal, reported that members of Family, Career
and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) would be serving chili on Friday,
Jan. 24, at the basketball game. Several
students also competed in the FCCLA
STAR Events in Maryville, MO. Cub
Clinic Cheerleading is being scheduled,
and Mound City R-2 will host district
basketball the week of Monday, Feb. 24.
Finally, the high school teachers have
been working on the new evaluation system.
Following the Board meeting was
a closed session; after the session, the
Board voted to extend Superintendent
Ken Eaton’s contract for an additional
year.
Mound City Kiwanis Club
The Mound City, MO, Kiwanis Club met on Wednesday,
Jan. 22, at the United Methodist Church in Mound City with
10 members and two guests, Todd Meierhoffer of Meierhoffer
Funeral Home and Crematory and Holt County Commissioner
Mark Sitherwood, present. Sitherwood spoke about the 2014
county budget and the proposed wind farm to be built in southeastern Holt County.
In other club news, each member received a copy of the Region One Trustee Election email from Patsey McGuire. Members are continuing to deliver Meals on Wheels this month. The
club was also asked about its availability for an antique tractor
pull in July.
Skidmore boy injured
in ATV accident
Skyler N. Chesnut, 8, of Skidmore, MO, was injured after
trying to make a sharp left turn in a hay field and flipping over
his 2003 Yukon YXL 150 four-wheeler on Sunday, Jan. 26, at
3:06 p.m. Missouri State Highway Patrol Trooper H.G. Vernon
reported to the private property located eight miles northwest of
Skidmore, as did Nodaway County Ambulance. Chesnut, who
was wearing his helmet and suffered minor injuries, was treated
and released at the scene. The four-wheeler also sustained minor
damage and was driven home by one of Chesnut’s parents.
Congressman Graves
recognized for stance
against illegal immigration
U.S. Congressman Sam Graves of
Tarkio, MO, received an “A” rating
for his voting record and actions to
both combat illegal immigration and
promote sustainable legal immigration
in 2013, according to NumbersUSA,
which was founded to promote the findings of the bipartisan U.S. Commission
on Immigration Reform. He earned a
92 percent overall rating in the first session of the 113th Congress, a score that
landed him the third highest ranking
in the U.S. Among other areas, Graves
received an “A+” for his position regarding the reduction of illegal jobs and
amnesty enticements. Graves’ overall
career grade also stands at “A+”, NumbersUSA noted.
“Our primary goal in any immigration plan should be to control and defend our borders,” said Graves, who
last year introduced the Secure America with Verification and Enforcement
(SAVE) Act. “This is an important re-
sponsibility of the federal government,
and we are not doing enough, as made
evident by the over 11 million illegal
immigrants currently in the country.
Additionally, our government must
do everything possible to ensure the
American workforce consists of legal
workers, especially during these tough
economic times, which is why my bill
includes improvements to E-Verify.”
The SAVE Act increases border security with the addition of 5,000 border
patrol agents and improves infrastructure with additional fencing and vehicle
barriers at the border. It also enhances
existing interior enforcement by increasing the number of Immigrations
and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents
and expediting the process of removing

Act also expands and mandates EVerify to provide American employers

Nodaway-Holt students rapt
audience in Civil War presentation
The Nodaway-Holt R-7 Mark Twain Club - Welcomed guest speakers Liz and Mike Mandrick on Wednesday, Jan. 22, to discuss the Civil War; Mike Mandrick portrayed a soldier from the Michigan Iron Brigade, while

Thomson receives award
In an awards ceremony on
Monday, Jan. 13, in Jefferson
City, MO, the University of
Missouri (MU) Alumni Association honored state representative Mike Thomson with
the prestigious Henry S. Geyer
Award.
The Geyer Award is eponymously named after a former
state representative who introduced the bill that established
the University of Missouri in
1839. The award is presented
each year by the Legislative
Network Committee of the
Alumni Association to one
state-elected official and one
citizen who exemplify the
dedication and spirit of Geyer;
this year, the citizen award
was given to MU Chancellor
Brady Deaton, and the elected
official award went to Thomson.
Thomson was nominated
for the award by the Agriculture Alumni Organization. In
selecting him as a recipient,
the group noted Thomson’s
continued efforts in supporting higher education public
policy.
“Rep. Thomson, as the 2013
Geyer Award public official recipient, has made a tremendous
impact on higher education in
Missouri,” Dianne Drainer, advocacy director for the MU
Alumni Association, said. “His
exemplary commitment...and his
efforts are both very meaningful and necessary to protect the
future of higher education in our
state.”
Lesa McCartney, chair of the
Legislative Network Committee,
added: “This year’s recipients
have demonstrated what it truly
means to...commit tirelessly to
protecting and advancing higher
education in this state.”
Thomson, a Republican, represents district one in the Missouri House, and he is both the
chair of the House Higher Education Committee and a member of the Budget, Education
and Joint Education Committees, which support education
goals and funding in Missouri.
Since 2007 Thomson has cosigned and sponsored dozens of
bills to support higher education public policy, including: the
creation of the at-large position
for the Board of Curators in the
wake of the loss of a congres-

sional district; legislation aiming to improve and equalize Access Missouri and Bright Flight
scholarship awards for students
at public universities; legislation enhancing remedial education, transfer and articulation
agreements and reverse-transfer
policies of the state; legislation
establishing the Missouri Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Initiative; legislation for MU that
protects the private financial
records of potential donors;
and several bills related to the
elementary and secondary education funding formula.

South Holt R-1 vocal
music teacher honored
The Missouri Music Educators’ Association (MMEA),
which has a membership of
more than 3,000 teachers statewide, annually honors music
educators who have completed
at least 25 years or more of
service in music education; on
Thursday, Jan. 23, during a conference at Tan-Tar-A Resort in
Osage Beach, MO, South Holt
R-1 vocal music instructor Sally
Kirchhoff was one of two teachers honored for her commitment
to education. Kirchhoff, who
will soon complete her thirtieth
year of teaching, announced that
she will retire at the end of the
current school year.
A 1980 graduate of Santa
Fe High School in Alma, MO,
Kirchhoff came to South Holt in
1984 after completing her bachelor’s degree in vocal music
education with piano emphasis
from the University of Central Missouri (UCM) in Warrensburg, MO. She soon began
working on her master’s degree
in music from UCM. She completed her degree in 1991.
In addition to MMEA, Kirchhoff has held memberships
in several other organizations
throughout her teaching career, including the South Holt
Community Teachers’ Asso-

(MCDA), Missouri State Teachers’ Association (MSTA)
and PEO Chapter Z. She has twice been honored by the
Oregon, MO, Kiwanis Club as South Holt’s Outstanding
Teacher of the Year (1993, 2005), and she was given an
Outstanding Educator Award from the Northwest Missouri
Region by MSTA in 2006. In 2010 Kirchhoff was chosen
by her MCDA peers as Outstanding Choral Director of the
Year from the Northwest Missouri Region.
Kirchhoff is proud of the fact that she has only ever
taught for the South Holt school district. Although she has
been pleased to both live and work in southern Holt County for the last three decades, she will eventually move to
Concordia, MO, near her hometown, in order to be closer
to her extended family members. Kirchhoff is looking forward to keeping busy when that time comes by playing the
piano at church and community events. She also plans to
give both piano and voice lessons in her home.

City taxes no longer so taxing
From the
front page
each of these areas receives the
following tax levies, which
amount to $1.84 per $100 assessed valuation:
General Purposes: $0.75, or
40.95 percent of the total;
Library: $0.41 or 22.06 percent of the total;
Parks: $0.27, or 14.63 percent
of the total;
Street Lights: $0.25, or 13.59
percent of the total;
Health: $0.16, or 8.78 percent
of the total.
Regarding 2012, Smith says
the collection rate is high compared to the amount of delinquent tax payments. The city,
which has a Dec. 31 deadline for
taxes, billed $200,565 in 2012;
by the end of December, it had
collected $163,970, an effort that
amounts to an 82 collection percent rate.
“We had a good rate [for the
year],” Smith said.
For 2013, however, the collection rate was nearly 10
percent higher. The county
billed $219,913 and collected
$198,870 by the year’s end, a
rate of 91 percent. The difference
between the rates is due to when
the books are closed for the year;
by the end of January, most of
the accounts are “caught up on,”
Smith explained. As it stands for
delinquencies now, 97.5 percent,
or $4,900 of delinquent taxes
have been collected for 2012.
For 2011 that collection rate rises to 98.2 percent, and for 2010,
the rate is 99 percent. Most of
the delinquent taxes, Smith says,
are related to personal property
taxes as Mound City residents
may move away without leaving
any kind of forwarding address,
making taxes hard to collect.
Currently, there is a total of
$4,888, or $6,242 with penalties,
in delinquent real estate taxes
from 2003 to 2012. Delinquent
personal property taxes from
2008 to 2012 come in at $7,562,
or $10,345 with penalties. Additionally, the city has delinquent
taxes going back to 1991 that
total $6,500, or $20,906 with
penalties.
It is in respect to these delinquencies that the city and county
have come together. Although
taxes older than five years are removed from city ledgers, they do
remain in the billing system. In
an attempt to help the city recover those unpaid taxes, Cotton included tax notices with the 2013
notifications she mailed, an unusual step for a county collector.
“We try to help with back
taxes,” Cotton said, though the
county has no obligation to step
in. “We’re still trying to.”
The tricky part, Cotton says, is
that a person cannot pay his or
her 2013 taxes until all earlier
taxes, such as ones from 2012,
have been paid.
Overall, however, the tax process has been running smoothly,
and both Smith and Cotton reported very few people have had
complaints. The only shortcoming of the system right now, as
far as the city is concerned, involves registration for city stickers for vehicles. Registration has
to take place at City Hall and can
only be done after yearly taxes
have been paid. Smith is hoping
to iron out the details to avoid
any inconvenience in the future.
“We would like to somehow
simplify this process for next
year,” Smith said.

undergo a complete renovation;
new campsites, a cleaned-up
Scout Island, a new trailhead
and boardwalk and a fresh multipurpose building are currently
on the agenda. But for MillerMcCann, the announcement was
not good news.
“We’ve lost eight percent of

The sticking point for MillerMcCann is the negative effect on
her community. People want to

The Lincoln Continentals,
the premier men’s a cappella
chorus in Lincoln, NE, will
perform at 3 p.m. on Sunday,
Feb. 9, at the State Theater in
Mound City, MO. The “Red
Hearts and Blue Eyes” concert, which is sponsored by
the State Theater Arts Council, the Missouri Arts Council
and Nodaway Valley Bank,
will feature classic songs by
ol’ Blue Eyes himself, Frank
Sinatra, as well as other fan
favorites. Tickets, which are
$10 in advance, $12 at the
door and $5 for students, are
available at all Mound City
banks and Bank CBO in Oregon, MO. Tickets may also
be purchased by calling the
theater box office at (660)
442-5909. “Red Hearts and
Blue Eyes” is a season-ticket
event.
Founded in 1946, the Lincoln Continentals are one of
approximately 800 chapters
of the Barbershop Harmony
Society (BHS) in the United
States and Canada. The chorus has consistently maintained its ranking as one of
the best barbershop groups in
the region; last October, the
Lincoln Continentals won the
Plateau AA Championship at
the BHS Central States District Competition in Kansas
City, MO. Additionally, 2013
was a banner year for the chorus as it added a dozen new
members and welcomed director Todd Krier.

Flexible cash
rental programs
It is difficult to predict what the future may hold, but forward grain contracts are indicating lower prices, the Holt
County Extension office reported. As a result, tenants and
landlords may need to reconsider their cash rental programs.
The programs are designed in such a way that both landlords and tenants can share in the boom-bust cycles of farming. The landlord, for example, can share in high prices and
yields but must also deal with low prices and yields. The
tenant, similarly, can decrease his or her risk relative to a
cash lease agreement but may give up some profit potential.
For more information on flexible cash leases that can be
engineered to benefit both parties, contact the Extension office at (660) 446-3724.

HISTORICAL
This Week’s
History
From the Mound City News archives
50 Years Ago - 1964
• All north Holt County high schools, Bellevue,
Craig, Maitland and Mound City, received notice of their school’s 1964 Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow award. The girl selected
in each instance achieved the highest score
in a written knowledge and attitude examination given at her school. Miss Sandra Fuhrman,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Fuhrman, was
the winner at Maitland; Miss Rebecca Wright,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David Wright, was the
Craig winner; Miss Linda Andes, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Andes, was the Bellevue selection; and Miss Rosanne Bartlett, daughter of
Mrs. Clifford Broker, was named the winner in
the Mound City competition.
• A petition with a sufficient number of names
was presented to the secretary of the Bellevue
School Board. It requested that the Board of
Education of the Consolidated District No. 1
submit the proposition to the voters in the area
concerned, of annexing to the Mound City Independent School District. The Mound City Directors have gone on record as favorable to any
such procedure, when the decision is made by
residents of the area concerned.
25 Years Ago - 1989
• Gary Parker, superintendent of Big Lake State
Park, announced that development began on
the Scout Island day-use area at the north end
of the park. The project was to consist of construction of a road, several picnic sites with tables and grills, parking areas, and a restroom.
An additional project was to permanently close
the north park entrance, where it joined the
county road.
• Carson McCormack III (Sonny) filed for the
unexpired one-year term of North Ward Alderman in Mound City. The candidate had filled
the position since April, 1988, but because he
was appointed, not elected, the office was now
up for election again.
• Seventy-six Holt County R-II high school students traveled to Tarkio to see the Mule Barn
Theater production of Shakespeare’s “The
Merchant of Venice”. The students were accompanied by their teachers, Jeanne Moore, Nida
Messick and Madeleine Gillis.
• Four burglaries in the county were reported
to the sheriff’s office in the past week.
10 Years Ago - 2004
• City worker Richard Brown suffered broken
ribs when a tree limb hit him while a dead tree
was being cut down at Griffith Park.
• Annexation was again being discussed by
Mound City’s planning commission, but no
proposal would be on the April ballot. The last
serious look at expanding city boundaries died
in 1998 after public opposition to a planning
commission proposal for annexation that would
have nearly doubled the size of the city by adding about a half-mile of land in all directions.
• Nodaway-Holt seniors Julie Sielaff and Joe
Randall were named Courtwarming Queen and
King.
• Bryce Buntz, Patrick Kreek and Clayton Kurtz,
members of Boy Scout Troop 81, Oregon, were
recognized for earning their rank of Eagle
Scout at the annual Boy Scout Otoe District
Recognition Dinner in Maryville. Arnie Kreek,
Troop 81 Scoutmaster, was given the District
Award of Merit, the highest recognition a Scout
can receive in the district.

dance to again discuss the EEZ. Element
Power is planning to build “Mill Creek
Wind Farm,” a 200 megawatt wind farm,
in southeastern Holt County; the company plans to invest $400 million. Zeimetz
and Arndt asked the Commission to consider including them in any EEZ formation. By doing so, the Element Power representatives can negotiate the associated
tax abatements for the wind farm with the
EEZ board, as Missouri law outlines.
State Senator Brad Lager joined
Zeimetz and Arndt at the meeting to continue the conversation on the economic
benefits of Mill Creek Wind Farm to
Holt County and the state. Among the
related items discussed were the potential for tax abatements, the state of wind
farms in other Missouri counties and the
role of the state tax commission. Lager
pointed out that the EEZ model is the
right way to manage any projects because there is a uniform set of government statutes. Regarding existing wind
farms, none in Missouri have been applied to the tax rolls at 100 percent of the
construction value. In Gentry and Atchison counties, wind farms outside of an
EEZ were assessed with a 60 percent depreciation taken off of the construction
costs in the first two years, according to
the Commission minutes. The remaining 40 percent of the cost was applied
to the tax rolls and used to calculate the
tax. In addition, the towers continue to
depreciate over the life of the project.
The formula used for these wind farms
was based on a model associated with

system can be used for those needs.
Lastly, Buildings and Grounds Superintendent Mike Brock reported on his
budget and maintenance projects at the
courthouse and annex buildings; details
were included in the Jan. 23 Mound City
News budget message.
On Tuesday, Jan. 21, the Commission
again discussed the intricacies of the
wind farm. George Kurtz of rural Oregon, MO, joined the meeting to present
his concerns with the Mill Creek Wind
Farm. Commissioners informed Kurtz
that the construction of the wind farm is
a matter between a private company and
individual landowners, though the Commission will take into consideration any
concerns regarding roadway damage or
tax reductions related to construction.
Carla Markt of Oregon and the former
county assessor, reported on the upcoming Missouri River Recovery and Implementation Committee (MRRIC) meetings in Kansas City; although Markt is
no longer the assessor, she continues to
represent the county’s interests on the
MRRIC board.
Biermann presented on utility expenses for the Oregon Road and Bridge Barn;
work is still needed on the furnace units
in order to improve efficiency. With regard to the Road and Bridge Department,
the Commission voted to increase employees’ wages by two percent as none
received raises in 2013.
Finally, Kunkel presented the 2014
Budget Message and all necessary documents. Kathy DeVault of Nodaway
County was in attendance for the hearing. After reviewing the budget and figures for 2013, the Commission approved
the budget message as it was presented.

Missouri’s Electric Cooperatives. Atchison County, however, used an EEZ for
its second wind farm, which was built
by Iberdrola. The EEZ has a minimum
50 percent property tax abatement for
10 years under Missouri law. Currently,
there is no taxation model in Missouri
that allows for a 100 percent assessment
of real property tax that is used in conjunction with the development of a wind
farm.
After completing the discussion,
the Commission approved Resolution #2014-01-13 to form a countywide
EEZ in the unincorporated areas of
Holt County (excluding one U.S. Census Block tract). County Clerk Kathy J.
Kunkel will notify each taxing district of
the proposed EEZ of the resolution and
the need for two additional EEZ board
members to be chosen.
In other Commission meeting news,
Biermann spoke to the commission about
repairs to the excavator and various road
projects. He is also hoping to purchase
new semi-tractors to replace the county’s
rock trucks, which were purchased in
1999.
Brenda Nelson, registered nurse and
health department administrator, met
with the Commission to talk about new
regulations regarding restaurant inspections. Under the new rules, any restaurant that is opening for the first time or
that is under new ownership must be inspected before a launch to ensure food
safety and compliance with state regulations. Nelson also brought up the use
of the county’s GIS mapping data availability during an emergency involving
various bioterrorism or pandemic grant

Missouri deer harvest bucks historic trends
Hunters checked 50,507 deer
during Missouri’s archery deer
season, bringing the state’s
overall deer harvest to 250,787,
a number down from the 10year average of 293,056. Resource Scientist Jason Sumners, however, believes the
overall decrease is in line with
deer-harvest figures from other
Midwestern states.
“Illinois, Iowa, Michigan
and Minnesota all reported decreases of seven to 26 percent
in their firearms deer harvests,”
Sumners said. “The relative
importance of the factors responsible for those decreases
differs from state to state, but
the history behind them is similar.”
That history relates to deerrestoration programs that began in the 1930s and ’40s;
when the programs came to
full fruition, agencies faced another problem: how to balance
excellent deer hunting without also causing unacceptable
levels of human-deer conflict.
This equilibrium continued to
stump agencies through the last
couple of decades.
In an effort to reverse the
long-held trend of protecting
female deer from harvest, biol-
ogists increasingly urged hunters to shoot does, a strategy
aimed at shifting the sex ratio
of deer herds from doe-heavy
to a fifty-fifty mix of both bucks
and does. The overall goal was
also to reduce deer population
growth in some areas, hold
numbers steady in others, and
reduce them in places that were
already significantly above
deer population targets.
“Over the course of about 15
years, we were able to apply
the brakes to deer population
growth,” Sumners said. “Then
came a perfect storm of conditions [that] we had no way of
anticipating.”
The perfect storm swirled
into the area after a severe
drought in 2012 carried over
into 2013 and launched the
worst outbreak of hemorraghic
diseases — blue tongue and
epizootic disease, collectively
referred to as HD — in recent
history. The losses were deepened when the drought caused
a record-breaking small acorn
crop, which forced deer to
move during the 2012 season.
Those deer made for easy targets; the harvest was the second largest in Missouri history.
While the 2012 harvest

might have been abundant,
hunter habits and the effects
of HD clashed. According to
the Missouri Department of
Conservation, hunter behavior changes slowly, so hunters
will continue to shoot the same
number of deer every season.
Consequently, the harvests in
the first and second years after
an HD die-off remain relatively stable, so by the time hunters
adjust their standards, a significant loss has accumulated.
Sumners asserts that the
Conservation
Department’s
Regulations Committee will
consider every factor, along
with hunter comments, when
drafting recommendations to
the Conservation Commission for the 2014-2015 deerhunting regulations. So far, the
committee has approved deer
season dates for next year so
as to provide hunters with adequate notice, but regulations
may still be adjusted because
the dip in deer numbers can be
complex.
“Missouri’s deer population
isn’t evenly spread across the
state or a county,” Sumners
said. “Blanket, one-size-fitsall answers aren’t necessarily
the right solutions, but we want
people to know that we are
hearing their concerns and are
committed to identifying ways
to find the right balance.”
Sumners also pointed out
that it is important to view the
current situation from a broad
historical perspective, especially considering the impact
of past agency decisions. It
took, for example, approximately 50 years of cooperation between the Conservation
Department, landowners and
hunters to reach the point
where Missouri’s annual deer
harvest topped 200,000 in
1995. Likewise, it took another
10 years to achieve the balance
of a doe and buck harvest that
was needed to stabilize deer
numbers in parts of Missouri.
Maintaining that stability in
the face of extreme weather,
disease outbreaks and annual
harvest variations is tricky, and
hunters should keep the intricacies in mind for this year’s
harvest.
“The average deer harvests
of approximately 290,000 over
the past 10 years have given us
a lopsided view of what the annual harvest should be,” Sumners said. “We’ve seen dips and
bumps in total harvest before,
and [we] expect the ebb and
flow will continue in the future. We are committed to [furthering] the science-informed
management that has enabled
successful [control] of a deer
resource that supports 12,000
Missouri jobs and pumps $1
billion into our economy annually.”
In an optimistic note, this
year’s archery season was the
second-largest in Missouri’s
history, most likely due to the
continued popularity of bowhunting. The top archery deer
harvest counties were Jefferson
with 1,205 deer checked, St.
Louis with 1,230 and Franklin
with 1,018.
To conclude, the Department of Conservation evaluates season information each
year. Last year, for instance,
it reduced anterless permits in
some counties. Management
today is also more challenging
due to interrelated factors, such
as land use, ownership, hunter
density and human population
levels. Today’s research efforts allow the agency to forecast population changes and
evaluate the impact of various
regulation options on the deer
population. Research, management and public input can help
the Department make more informed management decisions.
To that point, the Department
is planning to hold public
meetings around the state this
summer to gather input from
hunters, wildlife watchers and
others about the future of deer
management in Missouri. Public input has always been and
will continue to be an important part of the future of deer
management.

Mound City squares off against Nodaway-Holt
The Mound City Panthers hosted the Nodaway-Holt Trojans in
basketball action on Friday, Jan. 24, in Mound City, MO. While the
Mound City junior varsity girls’ team won 9-5 in two quarters, the
varsity Lady Panthers conceded defeat 58-52. The Mound City boys’
team lost 56-55 in a clincher with Nodaway-Holt.
“At Mound City, Brice Shamberger found Jackson Beattie open
against the Panthers’ press under the basket with three seconds left,”
Nodaway-Holt boys’ team coach Terry Petersen said. Beattie’s bucket
gave Nodaway-Holt the 56-55 victory and kept the Trojans’ hope for
a share of the 275 Conference alive.”
