BUFFALO TTRIVIA QUES
STION OF TH
HE MONTH:
For what w
was John Priggnitz known in Buffalo?
ANSWER TO
O LAST MON
NTH’S TRIVIA
A QUESTION
In thhe summer oof 1833, Capt.. Benjamin C
Clark raised corn,
c
beanss, peas and oother vegetabbles, the firstt produce raised in
Scott County. In 11834 he had 100 acres off wild land brroken.
FROM THE PARK BOARD
Unfortunately we lost 7 trees from the
storm at the park on Dodge. Clean-up
was done quick and efficient. New
mulch for around play equipment looks
great. Planted wild flower seeds in park
planters. Hope flowers come on before
July 4. Please carry a bag with you when
you walk your pet. There is a
city ordinance to clean up. And when
you mow please don't blow grass into
street or ally. It clogs our river and
streams. Next meeting is July 11 @ 6:00
p.m. Thank You, Cheryl Meador

BVFD Notes
. We spent 377 man-hours responding
to a record 43 emergency calls in May.
We responded to 29 EMS calls, 4
Structure Fires, 1 Vehicle Fire, 1
Grass Fire and 8 Miscellaneous calls for
a CO Detector, Wires Down, Missing
Child, Transformer Fire and Flood
Pumping, Wires Down and an Alarm
Malfunction. The members also spent
24 man-hours performing station and
vehicle maintenance with their assigned
duty crew.
As the summer heat moves in upon us,
here are a few tips to beat the heat:
♦ Dress for the heat. Wear
lightweight, light-colored clothing.
Light colors will reflect away some
of the sun's energy. It is also a
good idea to wear hats or to use an
umbrella.
♦ Drink water. Carry water or juice
with you and drink continuously even
if you do not feel thirsty. Avoid
alcohol and caffeine, which
dehydrate the body. Avoid using
salt tablets unless directed to do so
by a physician.
♦ Eat small meals and eat more often.
Avoid high-protein foods, which
increase metabolic heat.
♦ Slow down. Avoid strenuous activity.
If you must do strenuous activity,
do it during the coolest part of the
day, which is usually in the morning
between 4 and 7 a.m.
♦ Stay indoors when possible. If airconditioning is not available, stay on
the lowest floor out of the
sunshine. Remember that electric
fans do not cool, they simply
circulate the air.
Be a good neighbor. During heat waves,
check in on elderly residents in your
neighborhood and those who do not have
air conditioning.

You can save ass much as 10% a yeaar on heating and coooling by
simply turning yoour thermostat back 7o-10oF for 8 hourss a day
from where you w
would normally set. (If you have a heat pump,
p
don’t do this withhout a programmablee thermostat). You can
c do
this automaticallyy by using a program
mmable thermostat and
a
scheduling the times you turn on thee heating or air condiitioning.
As a result, the eequipment doesn’t operate as much wheen you

Some barrn authorities
claim it was

gested it wass esthetics - th
he
red paint ccomplementeed the green fields.
Yet anotheer theory sugg
gests it was a
supply and
d demand tra
adition. Farm
mers,
when askeed why they painted
p
their
barns red, replied, “red paint is so
available a
and cheap.” If paint
manufactu
urers asked why
w they prod
duced
so much reed paint, theyy said, “becau
use so
many farm
mers want it.” In any eventt, a
rich dark reed has becom
me the symbo
olic
barn color in
America.
What is eveen
more excitiing
than gettin
ng
fresh paintt on
the barns is
that my friiend
Sue and heer
husband D
Dick made us the most
beautiful B
Barn Quilt to decorate thee
peak. For those of you that do not know
k
what a barrn quilt is, I will
w talk about that
next month
h! Pictured here
h
is our ba
arn
quilt, which
h will be hung after the ba
arn is
painted.
ON anotheer note, Privyy Digger Davee is
interested in digging privies in Buffa
alo.
Anyone intterested, let me
m know! It is
i fun
to see wha
at treasures arre in the old
privies. Go
o out and gett dirty!
