POkIN’ FUN
by Doc Blakely
IF IT’S LAUGHTER
YOU’RE AFTER
Checking฀into฀hotels฀is฀something฀that฀has฀been฀a฀part฀
of฀my฀professional฀life฀for฀over฀four฀decades฀now฀so฀I฀am฀
rarely฀surprised฀by฀anything฀I฀see฀or฀hear฀at฀the฀front฀desk.฀
The฀most฀common฀things฀I฀hear฀are,฀“We฀have฀no฀record฀of฀
you.฀Did฀you฀have฀reservations?”฀I฀usually฀lash฀a฀big฀smile฀
and฀say,฀“Yes,฀but฀I฀think฀I’ll฀stay฀here฀anyway.”฀
Then฀I฀explain฀that฀I’m฀a฀speaker฀for฀the฀meeting฀that฀is฀
being฀held฀here.฀One฀time฀an฀attendant,฀a฀young฀lady฀wearing฀
the฀name฀tag฀“Shirley”,฀said,฀“I’m฀sorry฀for฀the฀inconvenience฀
sir.฀We฀had฀you฀iled฀under฀Speaker.฀Now฀Mr.฀Speaker฀could฀
I฀have฀your฀name?”฀I฀replied,฀“Well,฀that฀certainly฀would฀be฀
a฀coincidence.”฀
Once฀we฀get฀my฀name฀straight฀and฀she฀inds฀the฀reservation฀she฀asks,฀“How฀would฀you฀like฀to฀pay฀for฀this?”฀I฀explain฀
that฀it฀will฀go฀on฀the฀master฀account฀of฀the฀company฀that฀I฀
am฀speaking฀for.฀
“Oh,฀I’m฀sorry฀Mr.฀Speaker฀you’ll฀have฀to฀see฀our฀credit฀
manager฀to฀approve฀that.”฀
“My฀name฀is฀not฀Speaker,฀it฀is฀Blakely.”
“Do฀ you฀ know฀ the฀ penalty฀ for฀ theft฀ identiication,฀ Mr.฀
whatever฀your฀name฀is฀who฀does฀not฀have฀a฀room?฀We฀have฀
a฀room฀for฀Mr.฀Speaker฀but฀you฀don’t฀expect฀me฀to฀give฀it฀up฀
to฀Blakely,฀surely.”฀
“Don’t฀call฀me฀Shirley,฀that’s฀your฀name.”
Anyway,฀we฀laugh฀as฀she฀calls฀the฀credit฀manager฀with฀
the฀push฀of฀one฀button฀and฀security฀with฀another.฀We฀share฀
a฀few฀laughs,฀get฀it฀straightened฀out,฀and฀I฀get฀a฀police฀escort฀
to฀my฀room.฀Not฀a฀bad฀life.฀
When฀I฀returned฀after฀a฀few฀days฀on฀the฀road฀I฀discovered฀
there฀had฀been฀quite฀a฀commotion฀locally,฀which฀strengthens฀my฀philosophy฀that฀laughter฀can฀be฀found฀everywhere.฀
Here’s฀what฀happened.฀A฀married฀couple,฀friends฀of฀mine,฀
owned฀up฀to฀the฀chaotic฀event฀with฀good฀humor.฀I’ll฀call฀them฀
Ferdinand฀ and฀ Frieda.฀ Ferdinand฀ loved฀ to฀ jump฀ out฀ from฀
behind฀doors฀to฀scare฀Frieda฀who฀was฀spooked฀mightily฀by฀
that฀sort฀of฀thing.฀
Frieda฀ decided฀ to฀ take฀ a฀ nice฀ bubble฀ bath฀ to฀ unwind฀
after฀a฀visit฀from฀the฀grandkids.฀The฀door฀was฀slightly฀open฀
and฀Ferdinand฀could฀see฀her฀relaxed฀beneath฀the฀bubbles,฀
a฀slice฀of฀cucumber฀over฀each฀closed฀eyelid.฀He฀put฀on฀a฀
business฀suit,฀tie฀and฀a฀strikingly฀accurate฀rubber฀mask฀of฀
Ronald฀Reagan.฀He฀burst฀through฀the฀door฀and฀uttered฀in฀
a฀low฀baritone฀voice,฀“Win฀one฀for฀the฀Gipper,฀sweetheart!”฀
The฀bathroom฀literally฀exploded฀with฀high฀pitched฀screams,฀
bubbles,฀sponges,฀and฀cucumber฀slices.฀A฀neighbor฀called฀
911฀and฀a฀SWAT฀team฀was฀there฀in฀minutes.฀
Ferdinand,฀suffered฀the฀only฀concussion฀in฀county฀records฀
from฀a฀Plumber’s฀Friend,฀was฀charged฀with฀masquerading฀
as฀ a฀ Republican,฀ and฀ persuaded฀ to฀ buy฀ one฀ ticket฀ to฀ the฀
policeman’s฀ball.฀
One฀ticket?฀Yes,฀Frieda฀said฀she฀didn’t฀accompany฀dead฀
ex-presidents,฀had฀a฀slipped฀disc฀and฀was฀a฀Democrat.฀www.

This฀ week฀ I฀ wanted฀ to฀
visit฀with฀you฀about฀Arkansas฀highways.฀
The฀ facts฀ are฀ we฀ have฀
declining฀ revenue฀ for฀ our฀
highways฀and฀our฀needs฀are฀
greater฀than฀ever.฀And฀then฀
we฀ need฀ additional฀ funds฀
for฀Arkansas฀to฀access฀new฀

made฀available฀in฀recent฀federal฀highway฀program.
The฀new฀federal฀highway฀
legislation฀ will฀ provide฀ Arkansas฀ with฀ $200฀ million฀ a฀
year฀ for฀ new฀ road฀ funding,฀
but฀it฀requires฀a฀match฀from฀
the฀state.฀We฀need฀$46฀million฀ in฀ matching฀ funds฀ by฀
September฀of฀this฀year,฀and฀
an฀ average฀ of฀ $50฀ million฀
each฀year฀into฀the฀future.
After฀ hearing฀ from฀ the฀

History
Columnist
฀ Some฀ people฀ are฀ fortunate฀ enough฀ to฀ have฀ lives฀
that฀ are฀ a฀ front-seat฀ to฀ history.฀฀Respected฀University฀
of฀ Arkansas฀ law฀ professor฀
Albert฀ Witte฀ was฀ one฀ such฀
man.
Witte฀ was฀ born฀ in฀ Pittsburgh,฀Pennsylvania,฀in฀1923.฀฀
His฀ parents฀ moved฀ several฀
times฀ when฀ he฀ was฀ young฀
before฀they฀divorced.฀฀Eventually,฀ he฀ and฀ his฀ mother฀
settled฀ in฀ Erie,฀ Pennsylvania,฀ where฀ he฀ grew฀ up฀ and฀
attended฀the฀local฀schools.
After฀ graduating฀ high฀
school฀ in฀ 1942,฀ he฀ enlisted฀
in฀the฀U.฀S.฀Army฀Air฀Force.฀฀
He฀ served฀ as฀ a฀ bombardier,฀lying฀35฀missions฀and฀
earning฀ the฀ Distinguished฀
Flying฀Cross.฀฀After฀his฀1945฀
discharge,฀ he฀ enrolled฀ in฀
college.฀฀He฀earned฀an฀undergraduate฀degree฀and฀a฀masters฀degree฀in฀English฀from฀
the฀ University฀ of฀ Chicago฀
by฀ 1950.฀ ฀ After฀ earning฀ his฀
The Auschwitz Escape by
Joel Rosenberg
Hitler฀ begins฀ implementing฀
his฀ “inal฀ solution”฀ to฀ systematically฀ and฀ ruthlessly฀
exterminate฀the฀Jewish฀people,฀Jacob฀must฀rely฀on฀his฀
wits฀and฀a฀God฀he’s฀not฀sure฀
he฀ believes฀ in฀ to฀ somehow฀
escape฀from฀Auschwitz฀and฀
alert฀the฀world฀to฀the฀Nazi’s฀
atrocities฀ before฀ Fascism฀
overtakes฀all฀of฀Europe.฀The฀
fate฀of฀millions฀hangs฀in฀the฀
balance.”
The฀Auschwitz฀Escape฀by฀
Joel฀ Rosenberg฀ introduces฀
us฀ to฀ the฀ story฀ of฀ Jacob฀
Weisz,฀a฀man฀involved฀in฀the฀
German฀resistance.฀Though฀
Weisz฀is฀indeed฀German฀himself,฀ he฀ sees฀ what฀ scourge฀
the฀Nazi฀forces฀truly฀are,฀and฀
decides฀that฀it฀is฀his฀duty฀to฀
preserve the Fatherland he
knows฀and฀ight฀back฀against฀
this฀oppression.฀
Shortly฀ after฀ joining฀ the฀
underground฀ resistance,฀
Jacob฀ and฀ his฀ friend฀ find฀
themselves฀in฀the฀middle฀of฀
a฀raid,฀and฀then฀packed฀off฀
on฀a฀cramped฀train฀to฀Auschwitz,฀the฀most฀infamous฀of฀
death฀camps.฀In฀it,฀they฀must฀
gather฀ whatever฀ strength฀
and฀ faith฀ they฀ have฀ left,฀
escape and tell the world
about฀all฀the฀atrocities฀they฀
are฀witnessing฀within.
Though฀this฀is฀of฀course฀
a฀ work฀ of฀ historical฀ iction,฀
it฀does฀tell฀a฀story฀that฀happened฀ countless฀ times,฀
to฀ both฀ better฀ and฀ worse฀
degrees.฀ Though฀ the฀ ending฀ can฀ be฀ seen฀ from฀ afar,฀
Rosenberg฀ still฀ manages฀ to฀
do฀a฀decent฀job฀at฀creating฀
tension฀ by฀ making฀ situations฀ from฀ which฀ it’s฀ hard฀
or฀near-impossible฀to฀see฀an฀
exit฀for฀the฀protagonists.฀The฀
characters฀are฀very฀compelling฀ in฀ their฀ own฀ ways,฀ all฀
of฀ their฀ stories฀ eventually฀
ending฀in฀the฀tragedy฀that฀is฀
Auschwitz.฀
Perhaps฀ one฀ of฀ the฀ best฀
aspects฀of฀this฀book฀is฀that฀
Rosenberg฀ manages฀ to฀ stir฀
within the reader that indomitable฀desire฀to฀ight฀evil฀
and฀pure฀hatred฀for฀whoever฀
propagates฀it.฀He฀discusses฀
subjects฀ such฀ as฀ the฀ force฀
of฀ hope฀ that฀ can฀ keep฀ a฀
person฀going฀even฀through฀
the฀darkest฀of฀days,฀how฀to฀
reconcile฀faith฀in฀the฀face฀of฀
such฀an฀inexplicable฀evil,฀the฀
importance฀of฀ighting฀back฀
against฀ evil฀ rather฀ than฀ sitting฀by,฀and฀more.฀
All฀in฀all,฀The฀Auschwitz฀
Escape฀is฀a฀moving฀novel฀on฀
many฀ dimensions,฀ offering฀
a฀ captivating฀ and฀ nervewracking฀story฀coupled฀with฀
some฀profound฀thinking฀on฀
the฀ oldest฀ subject฀ there฀ is:฀
the฀ battle฀ of฀ good฀ against฀
evil.฀While฀the฀subject฀matter฀ is฀ difficult,฀ this฀ novel฀
should฀be฀considered฀if฀one฀
enjoys฀historical฀iction.

nationwide.
New Highway Program Proposal
state’s฀history,฀we฀will฀make฀
a฀ meaningful฀ contribution฀
to฀our฀highways฀from฀general฀revenue฀funds,฀which฀in฀
the past provided less than
one฀percent฀of฀our฀highway฀
needs.฀
It’s฀ important฀ to฀ note฀
that฀my฀plan฀to฀use฀general฀
revenue฀ for฀ highways฀ will฀
not฀ reduce฀ available฀ funding฀ for฀ other฀ critical฀ needs฀
like฀education,฀child฀welfare,฀
criminal฀justice฀and฀more.
But฀a฀key฀part฀of฀the฀plan฀
is฀ that฀ we฀ will฀ NOT฀ raise฀
taxes฀to฀fund฀our฀highways.฀
Speciically,฀there฀will฀be฀no฀
new฀taxes฀on฀gasoline,฀diesel฀
fuel฀ or฀ sales฀ tax.฀ With฀ our฀
economy฀ still฀ on฀ the฀ mend฀
and฀ with฀ families฀ who฀ are฀
still฀struggling฀to฀make฀ends฀
meet,฀now฀is฀not฀the฀time฀to฀
raise฀taxes.
This฀ new฀ program฀ allows฀us฀to฀access฀billions฀of฀
dollars฀ in฀ federal฀ highway฀
money฀–฀all฀without฀raising฀
taxes.
In฀ the฀ first฀ year฀ of฀ my฀
highway฀plan,฀Arkansas฀will฀
primarily฀ use฀ unobligated฀
surplus฀funds฀to฀provide฀the฀
federal฀match฀of฀$46฀million.฀
In฀ later฀ years,฀ the฀ highway฀ program฀ will฀ generate฀revenue฀from฀road฀user฀
items฀ such฀ as฀ a฀ portion฀ of฀
existing฀sales฀tax฀on฀new฀and฀
used฀cars.฀This฀will฀not฀raise฀
or฀ change฀ the฀ taxes฀ Arkansans฀already฀pay฀on฀vehicles฀
they฀drive.฀It฀will฀be฀phased฀
in฀over฀time฀and฀capped฀at฀
$25฀million.฀There฀are฀other฀
sources฀of฀revenue฀involved฀
as฀well,฀but฀none฀will฀affect฀
taxes฀or฀our฀ability฀to฀meet฀
our฀budget฀obligations.
My฀inal฀recommendation฀
is฀ using฀ 25฀ percent฀ of฀ our฀
budget฀ surplus฀ each฀ year฀
for฀ highways.฀ This฀ will฀ be฀
done฀after฀education฀and฀our฀
other฀critical฀budget฀needs฀
are฀met.฀฀
Highway฀infrastructure฀is฀
key฀to฀our฀state’s฀economic฀
development฀ and฀ growth,฀
and this plan should act as
a฀ catalyst฀ for฀ that฀ growth฀
by฀ allowing฀ us฀ to฀ increase฀
our฀investment฀in฀highways฀
without฀placing฀an฀unnecessary฀ burden฀ on฀ Arkansas฀
taxpayers.฀ The฀ plan฀ I฀ presented฀ accomplishes฀ both฀
objectives.
Everyone฀wants฀effective฀
and฀accessible฀roadways฀in฀
Arkansas.฀
These฀ highways฀ help฀
people฀get฀to฀work฀on฀time,฀
visit loved ones and travel
our฀ incredible฀ state.฀ They฀
also฀provide฀avenues฀for฀our฀
farmers฀ and฀ businesses฀ to฀
transport products across
the฀state฀for฀increased฀economic฀growth.
I฀recognize฀that฀this฀critical฀need฀must฀be฀addressed,฀
but฀ I฀ also฀ understand฀ the฀
inancial฀burdens฀we฀all฀face฀
in฀today’s฀economy.
This฀ plan฀ is฀ adaptable฀
and฀ it฀ is฀ realistic฀ for฀ Arkansas.฀ And฀ those฀ are฀ two฀
factors฀ I฀ am฀ conident฀ will฀
make฀it฀sustainable฀for฀years฀
to฀ come.฀ The฀ plan฀ follows฀
my฀ conservative฀ approach฀
to฀governing฀and฀to฀budgeting,฀ regardless฀ of฀ our฀ everchanging฀economy.
Arkansans฀and฀their฀families฀ matter,฀ and฀ that’s฀ why฀
this฀highway฀plan฀is฀necessary฀ and฀ will฀ help฀ create฀
better฀ jobs฀ and฀ add฀ to฀ our฀
quality฀of฀life.
History Minute: Albert witte
maters฀ degree,฀ he฀ worked฀
as฀ an฀ English฀ professor฀ for฀
two฀years฀at฀a฀college฀in฀Wisconsin.฀฀In฀1952,฀he฀decided฀
to฀take฀his฀life฀in฀a฀different฀
direction and enrolled at the
University฀of฀Wisconsin฀Law฀
School.
Once฀ he฀ graduated฀ and฀
passed฀ the฀ Wisconsin฀ bar฀
exam,฀he฀briely฀worked฀for฀
a฀ law฀ irm฀ before฀ deciding฀
to฀return฀to฀teaching.฀฀As฀a฀
result,฀ he฀ was฀ hired฀ by฀ the฀
University฀of฀Arkansas฀Law฀
School฀in฀1957,฀embarking฀on฀
a฀long฀and฀storied฀career.฀฀He฀
retold฀the฀story฀years฀later฀
about฀his฀arrival฀in฀Arkansas฀
just฀as฀the฀Little฀Rock฀desegregation฀crisis฀was฀reaching฀
its฀peak.
He฀left฀the฀university฀for฀
two฀years฀in฀the฀early฀1960s฀
to฀teach฀at฀Emory฀University฀
in฀Atlanta,฀Georgia,฀before฀returning฀to฀Arkansas.฀฀He฀was฀
in฀ high฀ demand฀ with฀ other฀
law฀ schools.฀ ฀ He฀ served฀ as฀
visiting฀ professor฀ for฀ four฀
other฀universities,฀including฀
the฀University฀of฀Arkansas฀at฀
Little฀Rock.
Witte served on the hiring฀committee฀in฀1973฀when฀
the฀university฀hired฀a฀young฀
Bill฀ Clinton,฀ just฀ recently฀
graduating฀ from฀ Yale฀ Law฀
School,฀ as฀ a฀ law฀ professor.฀฀
Witte฀ served฀ as฀ a฀ mentor฀
and฀ colleague฀ with฀ Clinton฀
while฀ he฀ taught฀ at฀ the฀ law฀
school.฀ ฀ In฀ fact,฀ university฀
records฀still฀show฀Witte’s฀oficial฀observation฀of฀Clinton’s฀
Constitutional฀ Law฀ class฀
in฀ October฀ 1975.฀ ฀ Overall,฀
he฀ was฀ impressed,฀ noting,฀
“Professor฀ Clinton฀ seems฀
to฀ rely฀ on฀ an฀ unstructured฀
approach฀ to฀ the฀ material.฀
.฀ .฀ I฀ thought฀ his฀ questions฀
were฀good฀and฀many฀of฀the฀
responses spirited and intelligent.฀.฀.”
Clinton฀resigned฀his฀position฀at฀the฀university฀after฀he฀
became฀the฀state’s฀attorney฀
general฀ in฀ 1976,฀ but฀ Witte฀
continued฀to฀teach.฀฀During฀
the฀ course฀ of฀ his฀ career,฀
Witte฀ inluenced฀ the฀ minds฀
of฀young฀law฀students฀who฀
would฀ become฀ prominent฀
lawyers,฀ judges,฀ and฀ politicians.฀฀He฀recalled฀in฀an฀interview฀that฀he฀had฀taught฀two฀
future฀U.฀S.฀Senators,฀David฀
Pryor฀ and,฀ years฀ later,฀ his฀
son,฀Mark฀Pryor.
Witte฀lent฀his฀legal฀expertise฀to฀a฀variety฀of฀organizations.฀ ฀ He฀ served฀ on฀ the฀
Fayetteville฀ Planning฀ Commission฀and฀as฀a฀consultant฀
to฀the฀Southern฀Governor’s฀
Conference฀ from฀ 1969฀ to฀
1971.฀ ฀ From฀ 1981฀ to฀ 1990,฀
he served as Special Assistant฀ Attorney฀ General฀ for฀
Arkansas.฀฀For฀many฀years,฀
he฀ served฀ as฀ the฀ faculty฀
athletic฀ representative฀ for฀
the฀ University฀ of฀ Arkansas.฀฀
He฀ served฀ on฀ the฀ boards฀
of฀ several฀ college฀ athletic฀
organizations฀ as฀ a฀ result฀
which฀eventually฀led฀him฀to฀
serving฀ as฀ president฀ of฀ the฀
NCAA฀from฀1989฀to฀1991.
฀In฀1994,฀Witte฀retired฀from฀
teaching฀ full฀ time.฀ ฀ Though฀
he฀was฀71฀by฀this฀point,฀he฀
still฀ felt฀ he฀ had฀ much฀ to฀
contribute฀and฀continued฀to฀
teach฀a฀reduced฀load฀of฀one฀
or฀two฀classes฀each฀semester฀as฀an฀emeritus฀professor.฀฀
He฀ continued฀ to฀ teach฀ for฀
another฀ two฀ decades.฀ ฀ On฀
December฀23,฀2015,฀after฀the฀
last฀class฀of฀the฀last฀semester,฀he฀died฀at฀the฀age฀of฀92฀
in฀Fayetteville.

and the defense went to trial
without examining a single
witness and the result was
a hung jury. This is one of a
very few cases of this kind.
The farmers of Arkansas
are requesting to meet in
Little Rock on the 29th for
the purpose of considering
ways and means of getting
rid of the cotton worms,
whose ravages cost our
farmers so dearly the past
year. We hope there will
be a large attendance and
that much good will result.
Howard County should be
represented by two or three
of her best farmers. Get
ready and go.
(Adv.) I will be in Nashville on Feb. 1st with a car of
mules that I will offer cheap
for cash or good notes. Respectfully, S.N. Morrison

The eight-year-old daughter of John Choate, of Corn
Hill was instantly killed with
a bullet from a target rifle
Saturday morning, while the
gun was in the hands of her
eleven-year-old brother. The
boy had used the rifle the
day before, and went to get it
Saturday morning, thinking
he had left it unloaded. The
gun was not only loaded, but
cocked and as he picked it
up it was discharged, the
bullet penetrating the heart
of his sister.
The mother of the children heard the shot and
rushed into the room, where
she at once saw that the little
girl was injured, although
she was still standing up.
She went to the child and
asked where she was shot,
but the little girl was unable
to speak, but placed her
hand over the wound in her
breast. She died within a few
minutes. The child was the
grandniece of N.J. Choate of
this city.

ON THE EDGE OF COMMON sENsE
From The
by Baxter Black, DVM
BAXTER
BLACk
Farm
Columnist
Gerald Two bears was
the foreman of the tribal
branding crew.
Lots of Indians who were
cowboys came to do what
they could do.
Billy Strike was good at
roping and his medicine
was strong,
And he roped ‘em automatic ‘til misfortune came
along!
He roped a good-size
heifer calf, but he roped her
‘round the neck.
She ran behind his
horse’s butt and put’em
both in check!
The rope slid underneath
his tail which spooked the
pony some,
So, of course, he went to
gerald Two Bears
and Billy Strike
pitching! ‘Cause the nylon
chafed his bum!
Now like I said, that Billy’s tough and wouldn’t quit
his dally,
The rope was holding
him down tight! Made every
peak and valley!
His horse was snorting
up the dirt like he was sweepin’ mines
And kickin’ himself sideways like a spring when it
unwinds!
Billy blew his left hand
stirrup, so he leaned against
the tide
But his saddle got some
cockeyed, slippin’ off the
other side.
His dally peeled off the
horn! His anchor chain had
broke!
Billy flew like Humpty
Dumpty and came down
and broke his yolk!
Gerald Two Bears ran to
Billy who lay still upon the
ground.
He said, “Billy, are you
alright?” Billy never made
a sound.
He listened for his
breathing but he lay so awfully still
He said, “Billy, can you
hear me?” Then with superhuman will
Billy’s eyelid raised, his
eyeball turned and swiveled
toward the source
Gerald leaned up close
and whispered, “Billy, can I
have your horse?”

This column is titled with
today's date because the information gathered is nearly
up to the minute, thanks to
the Internet.
Tuesday, at The Chicago
Mercantile Exchange, cattle futures saw triple digit
gains, only to fall the limit
Wednesday. Wall Street is
“nauseous,” according to
cattlerange.com, and uncertainty has the traders
unable to explain or predict
the numbers.
This was reflected in a
5-15$/100 lbs loss for the
week for calves weighing
450-550 ($50 head).
The bright spot was
butcher cows trading steady
Howard County Fair Association
election held January 19
after the holidays.
A word here, about our
butcher cow market, if I
may.
The Arkansas Livestock
Market reported average
dressing butcher cows
weighing 1,000-1,500 lbs.
at 65-71/100 lbs. Average
1,300-2,200 lbs bulls sold for
85-95/100 lbs.
In Oklahoma City, average dressing 1,000-1,500
lbs slaughter cows sold for
74-83, average butcher bulls
weighing 1,300-2,200 sold
for 1.01-1.06/100 lbs - a dime
difference.
In our local livestock
markets there are “local
orders”- meaning ranchers
are purchasing replacement
heifers, steers, or thin-grazing cows to put on Arkansas,
Oklahoma, or Texas grass
- not so for the butcher
market. Slaughter cows
and bulls are purchased to
ship and slaughter within a
few days, depending on the
ability to gather a 50,000
lbs load.
If you're thinking about
taking advantage of cheap
diesel, loading your gooseneck, and heading to OKC,
take the time to visit the
historic Stockyard café,
eat a great steak, and see
the sights before picking
up your check. A trip to
the OKC stockyards is a
good way to sell some high
butcher cows; unless you
have a flat, one of the cows
goes down, etc. Then, you'll
wish you had sold the cows
locally, and made it home
for pinto beans and cornbread. See y'all at the co-op.

Livestock producers must complete the LFP application and required supporting
documentation no later than Feb. 1, 2016, for losses that occurred throughout 2015.
Producers who already have appointments scheduled require no additional action to
meet the deadline.
Eligible livestock includes alpacas, beef cattle, buffalo, beefalo, dairy cattle, deer, elk,

ALL ABOUT FROGS!
FROGGY
WORD FIND
Frogs are vertebrate animals (meaning they have a backbone) called amphibians. An amphibian is an animal that lives in the water during one phase of its life and on land during another. Frogs and toads belong to
the same family. A frog is smaller, has smooth skin, and lives in the water. Toads are larger, have bumpy skin
and live mainly on land. Frogs are found in all parts of the World, except Antarctica. They live in many different
types of environments, such as water, trees, and burrows. There are many varieties of colors of frog skin. Some
frogs have poisonous venom in their skin; these are usually brightly colored frogs. The male in most frog species is smaller than the female. The largest frog on Earth is the African Goliath frog which weighs in at around
seven pounds and is over a foot in length. The smallest frog known today was discovered in Cuba in 1996. It is
commonly referred to as the Monte Iberia Eleuth and measures to be only 8.5 millimeters long! Adult frogs go
through a process called spawning where females lay their eggs, and a male fertilizes them once they are in
the water. When the eggs hatch, the frogs begin their life in the water as a tadpole. A tad¬pole looks similar to
a ish, but it is actually a baby frog. A tadpole only has a body, mouth, tail, and gills. As the tadpole gets older, it
develops its body, tongue, and legs, and its tail falls off. When this process of metamorphosis is complete (after
about 16 weeks), the tadpole leaves the water as a fully grown frog. Frogs are carnivores which means they eat
meat, mainly insects, worms and sometimes other frogs. Fully grown frogs do not have to drink water in order
to survive; they can absorb
it through their skin.
