What’s on horizon for the Rock Valley conference?
High school principals in a
9 to 3 vote last Thursday in
a meeting in Edgerton gave
Palmyra-Eagle and Parkview
districts permission to leave
the Rock Valley Conference.
The two schools must now
secure a place in another conference and gain permission of
the Wisconsin Interscholastic
Athletic Association.
Yet the vote seems likely
to force many changes on the
WIAA and other high schools
in the Rock Valley Conference
in the 2016-2017 school year.
“I’m not convinced it’s the
perfect solution to our situation,” said Steve Lutzke,
Parkview superintendent in
a phone interview Friday.
“We like the competition and
friendship we have with Brodhead and other schools in the
conference.
“But our current enrollment
makes it difficult for us to continue in the conference. The
preponderance of injuries that
happen are when we play the
larger schools in the conference in football,” Lutzke said.
Parkview’s enrollment ranges in the area of 270 to 280
students. McFarland High
School’s enrollment this year
is 715, and its district boasts
a total enrollment that has
ranged between 2,100 and
2,400 students annually for 10
years.
Having a pool of students
more than 2 ½ times larger,
means a larger team of bigger,
taller players. Size matters in
very physical contact sports,
yet no one wants any student
player to get hurt in unevenly
matched competition.
“We’re trying to keep our
athletic program viable,” Lutzke said. “Our school board
voted in its regular meeting the
third Monday in October to go
to 8-man football (instead of
11 players on the field).
“We have lobbied the WIAA
to come to our assistance –
both the larger and smaller
schools in the conference, feel
this way. We’ve all tried to
make the change in conference
makeup work, but I think a
number of schools would like
to see a wholesale realignment
of the conference,” Lutzke
said.
The WIAA is a nonprofit
organization that sets the rules
for schools across the state,
which voluntarily take part in
statewide athletic events for
nearly 90,000 students in Wisconsin annually.
“We are at the mercy of the
WIAA, which will make the
final decision,” Lutzke said.
“The first step was going to
the Rock Valley Conference.”
The likely conference alternative now for Parkview and
Palmyra-Eagle is the Trailways
Athletic Conference. It lists 22
school districts in its website
directory, with 7 of them tak-
ing part in a large school football division. Another 7 teams,
including Johnson Creek, Williams Bay, Cambria-Friesland,
Rio and Fall River, play each
other in a small school division of Trailways.
“Mileage
considerations
will have to be a trade off
for playing schools our size,”
said Lutzke, who will be having additional discussions with
staff and others as to what
Parkview will do in the next
academic season.
Parkview’s decision to split
from the Rock Valley Conference now leaves BrodheadJuda as the small team in Rock
Valley.
“We’re going to look into
other options,” said Jim Matthys, Brodhead High School
Principal, in an interview Friday. I’ll be meeting with our
athletic director and the district superintendent to look at
those options.

“We’ve have up to this point
kept competitive, even with
enrollment differences within
the conference,” Matthys said.
“But we have to consider the
outlook over the next 20 years,
not the last 20 years.
“We have to keep ourselves
attractive to students coming
into the district. A lot more
have come in this year through
open enrollment than usual.
We have unbelievable teachers, academic activities, music
– not just athletics. And all of
our kids are involved in something.”
Brodhead and Beloit Turner
did not favor Parkview and
Palmyra’s parting. Brodhead’s
enrollment was 306 in this academic year, with an additional
17 to 18 students from open
enrollment.
Brodhead has had a co-op
team with neighboring Juda
for 31 seasons in football,
Exceptional apples
cross country, wrestling and
baseball, according to Brodhead High School Principal.
Juda’s high school enrollment was 94 in the 2015-2016
season. It is projecting enrollment fluctuations between 108
and 92 over the next 4 school
years.
Brodhead has been experiencing smaller enrollments
in recent years, from a time
when its high school topped an
enrollment of more than 400
students 10 or 11 years ago,
Matthys said. That high figure,
however, reflected more of a
bubble in trends, which has
since returned to the present,
more normal enrollment levels, he said.
East Troy, McFarland, Edgerton, Evansville, Clinton, Jefferson, Whitewater and Big

Juda Math Team takes second in tri-state meet
By Ann Heiring
Special to the Register
JUDA — The high school repeated its second
place finish in this year’s Division 4 Tri-State
Math Meet at UW Platteville on Nov. 4. It is the eighth straight year Juda has placed first
or second. Nearly 600 students from more than 40
high schools in Southwestern Wisconsin, Eastern

participated in this contest.
Juda was one of the smallest schools participating, but it had more than half its high school
compete – with 50 students participating.

“This is a big deal, said high school math
teacher Scott Anderson, about the math team’s
engagement in the annual contest. “We have an awesome group of students, 50 of
them, who work hard at math and put their best
effort into the competition. It is simply mind boggling how they work and compete. Continually
placing year after year at a large meet is really
impressive,” Anderson said.
“Platteville Math Meet is something we all look
forward to every year,” agree Juda High School
senior Megan Powers.
“It not only challenges me, but every student
with difficult problems. With so many schools
involved, it is really awesome to win second
place,” she said.
The meet consisted of an individual portion and
then a team portion. This year, Juda placed 3
students on the All-Academic Team. They were
Samantha Anderson, Clayton Hale and Nicole
Kamholz. Three schools from the Six River’s East competed: Albany, Monticello and Pectaonica. River

Snowmobile trail pass rules
taking effect this winter
JUDA — Starting this winter,
every snowmobile riding Wisconsin snowmobile trails needs
a trail pass sticker in addition to
having the snowmobile registered with the state.
Trail pass purchase, separate
from required registration, is the
responsibility of each snowmobile owner, according to Darren
Roth, Association of Wisconsin
Snowmobile Clubs (AWSC)
director for Green County.
“You will not receive a notice
from the DNR as you do when
the registrations expire,” Roth
said in a press release on the
new requirement.
“The trail passes will be good
for one winter and expire on
June 30th. The cost of registering a snowmobile in Wisconsin
has changed from $30 for 2
years to $30 for 3 years,” Roth
stated in the release.
For snowmobiles registered
in Wisconsin, the trail passes
will cost $30 per snowmobile
Price
if the owner is not a member
of a snowmobile club and the
AWSC.
Trail passes can be ordered
from the DNR by going to their
website, or ordered directly
from any DNR license sales
agent.
“If you are a current member of a Wisconsin snowmobile club and the AWSC, you
can order the trail passes for
$10 from the AWSC,” Roth
stated. “These passes need to
be ordered through the AWSC
website or the AWSC office.
Contact your club or the AWSC
for more information.”
All snowmobile trail pass
stickers come from the state of
Wisconsin by the U.S. postal
service.
Trail passes for snowmobiles
registered in states other than
Wisconsin have increased to
$50. They are also available
through the DNR and select
vendors. Visit dnr.wi.gov and

County’s elderly population is
at risk of being food insecure.
Green Cares Food Pantry has distributed more than
100,000 pounds of food to
Green County residents each
year since 2010.
Even as community needs
grow, the pantry has experienced several federal funding
cuts.
Despite these cuts, the pantry continues to serve residents
throughout Green County,
with 15 percent of its clients
served last year in Brodhead,
9 percent in Albany, and 2
percent in Juda.
Spotlight on Senior Health:
Adverse Health Outcomes of
Food Insecure Older Americans research project found
food insecurity among individuals ages 60 and older has
a negative impact on seniors’
health, nutrition, and overall
well-being.
Hunger affects many others
besides senior citizens.
A Second Harvest Food
Bank survey of all of southwestern Wisconsin, including
Green County, found one in
five children faces hunger.
Hunger in children can lead
to poor health, social and
behavioral problems, poor
development, impaired mental
and physical functioning, and
chronic illness.
In 2014, the Green Cares
Food Pantry, from its base in
Monticello, served 2,431 families or 7,826 individuals.
Without community support,
those 7,286 individuals served
last year would have gone
without food they needed.

SAFE HANDLING
OF TURKEY
The cooking process kills any
surface bacteria, so experts say
it’s not necessary to wash the bird
before cooking. This also prevents
bacteria from being splashed
around your kitchen. Thaw a
frozen turkey in the refrigerator in
a shallow baking pan to prevent
juices from dripping onto other
foods. Allow 24 hours of thawing
time for every 5 lbs. of turkey.
When preparing the turkey, wash
your hands and kitchen surfaces
frequently to avoid spreading
bacteria. Cook the turkey until it
reaches a temperature of 165
degrees in the breast or stuffing
and 180 degrees in the thickest
part of the thigh. It’s safest to cook
stuffing separately.

Albany school board reviews district, schools’ progress
By Beth Blakemoore
Correspondent
ALBANY — School board
members met on Nov. 9 to
receive administrative reports,
approve the tax levy, and consider the possible school district acquisition of an adjacent
property.
The board also received a
technology committee meeting report, and discussed further the possible acquisition of
the Albany Hometown Herald
newspaper.
“Educator
effectiveness”
was one of the focuses of the
administrative reports.
Albany School District staff
have worked on educator
effectiveness for 2 months.
“Teachers have all completed their student or parent
surveys. They have examined
their results and have analyzed
them and put their information into My Learning Plan,”
according to Connie Gregerson, the Middle School Principal and Steven Guenther,
Superintendent.
Elementary school staff
briefed the board on the 4K
and kindergarten class field
trip to Skelly’s farm. There
was also a Halloween assembly and parade that featured
some spooky characters.
The 4th grade class did a
vocabulary activity for the
assembly that showed off all
the words that they could find
that meant awesome.
Concerning Albany Middle School 7th and 8th graders have engaged in projects
that explored the concept of
heroes.
They have had several
speakers who talked to the students about things they have
done that made them heroes.
A project for 5th and 6th
grade students has focused on
Africa.
The students and their teachers had a successful showcase
night for this educational
project, which culminated in
a benefit for African development programs on Nov. 6.
The event was planned completely by students and well
attended by families.
The high schoolers enjoyed
homecoming and a math
meet. With regard to sports, in
cross country the boys closely missed their district bid to
compete in the State WIAA
competition, whereas the girls’
team placed 4th.
A tax levy of $2,759,361
for 7 municipalities with our
school district, of which Albany’s share is 20.5 percent, was
approved.
The mill rate, at which property tax payers will pay for
this amount, was $12.67 per
$1,000 of assessed valuation.
A property that Bob Gressman may want to sell to the
school is right across the
road from the front entrance,
according to Steven Guenther.
Guenther apprised the board
of his meeting with Gressman’s daughter and son. The
assessed value of the property
is $124,000, and the adjacent
lot is valued at $9,000.
Possible uses of the building if acquired for school district use include a day care, a
project for the industrial arts
class, part of the 4k program,
and administrative offices. Ed
Maksym also mentioned the
possibility of using the property as a class for students

Heroes Showcase is Nov. 24
ALBANY — Seventh and
eighth grade students have been
studying heroes during November Project Time class.
Albany will get a chance to
see the students’ completed
work during a showcase event
on Tuesday, Nov. 24, beginning
at 9:30 a.m. in the high school
gymnasium.
At the start of this unit on
heroes, students were asked to
define a hero. Students each
produced individual hero definitions.
Yet many defined a hero as,
“one who is very dedicated to
helping people and is an inspiration to others as they may have
had to overcome something.”
As a kick-off to this unit, four
local heroes came in to speak to
the students about what they do
or have done in their lives.
Penny Graves spoke about
being a cancer survivor and
being positive about her diagnosis.
Mark Riedel spoke about
his work on the volunteer fire
department.
Bonnie Klapper spoke about
how the local Albany Thrift
Store operates and the good they
have done for our community.
Megan Kubesh spoke about
her experience in the armed services.
All four local heroes were very
passionate about their experiences and offered to students a variety of different types of heroes
for students to explore.
During this unit, students will
choose a hero in their life to
interview, write a biography
about their hero based upon conversations with their heroes, and
create an art sketch of this hero.
There will be a short introduction program to the Heroes Project. That will be followed by an
open showcase of student hero
presentations.
The showcase will be open
until 11:15 a.m. on the 24th.
Community and family members are all welcome to attend.

Albany High School’s U.S. History class observed Veterans Day by creating cards for veterans at the William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital in Madison. Each student created
a handmade card to be given to a veteran at the hospital. Additionally, students watched
a video explaining the history and meaning of Veterans Day before attending the school
assembly in honor of local veterans. Shown in the photo are students Piper Bailey, Austin
Detra, and Libby Beck with some of the students’ cards. Janet Schroeder, high school history teacher, and the Civics Class organized and conducted the Veteran’s Day Assembly, held
Nov. 11. Many local veterans were in attendance so that students could honor their service
to the nation.

Albany High School National Honor Society members, including left to right, Katie Trapp,
Allie Lent, Halie Lyons and Syade McDermott, helped sponsor an American Red Cross blood
drive at the school Nov. 9. There was a great turn out, with 27 units of blood collected. Students enjoyed volunteering and spending time with each donor. Each unit of blood can be
used to save up to three lives, so every person coming out to donate blood was much appreciated. Students wanted to thank all the volunteers, organizers, and donators at this blood
drive. Albany Lion’s Club will host another blood drive on Monday, Jan. 4. Go and share the
gift of life!

DNR shares the facts on deer hunting rules
Warden Wire is a periodic
feature called FAQs: Special
Edition - 2015 Gun-Deer Season. These FAQs were taken by
the DNR Call Center (http://dnr.
wi.gov/contact/), the Department of Natural Resources’
conservation wardens and the
Bureau of Wildlife Management. Today’s topic in this first
edition is e-registration.
The Call Center is staffed
daily, 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., and
offers bilingual service in Spanish and Hmong. The DNR Call
Center staff is happy to help
you with any and all of your
questions. The number is 1-888936-7463.
Question 1: What’s going on
with electronic registration this
year? I remember it was limited
last year.
Answer: Good question and
thanks. Mandatory deer registration has been a requirement
in Wisconsin since 1953. But
this year -- 2015 -- marks the
first full year of mandatory
electronic registration for whitetailed deer and black bear.
Last year, the Department of
Natural Resources ran an e-registration pilot involving about
200 hunters in each county.
There were more than 10,000
deer registered electronically
throughout all deer seasons.
Wisconsin is using GameReg
for this -- a paperless method
of registering wildlife harvests
by phone or online. Wisconsin
already has had success using
GameReg for turkey and geese.
We now are adding deer and
bear to that list.
Question 2: When and how
do I e-register my deer?
Answer: You have until 5 p.m.
the day after the deer (or bear)
was harvested to register it during all seasons. That includes
the 9-day gun-deer season.
You have options to do the
e-registration. You can do it
using your phone, online or visit
a business that has listed itself
as a registration station. That
means the business has phone
and Internet access for hunters
to perform their e-registrations.
Question 3: How would I register by phone?
Answer: Call this toll-free
number (1-844-GAME-REG).
You will be asked a short list
of questions which takes a few
minutes. The information the
hunter provides will then be
loaded to the system and available for department use.
Question 4: How about registering online -- on the Internet?
Answer: Easy! Go to
gamereg.wi.gov and answer the
few questions. It takes less than
2 minutes to do this.
Question 5: Will there be a
smartphone app or link in the
Pocket Ranger app that can take
hunters to the e-registration site,
and show where the registration
stations are?
Answer: Yes. The Pocket
Ranger app will have a link to
the e-registration system. You’ll
also find a searchable list of
walk-in registration stations on
the app link. The list of registration stations also is on the DNR
website, dnr.wi.gov and search
the keyword ‘deer.’
Question 6: What kinds of
questions will I be asked when
I call or go online to register
my deer?
Answer: Questions such as
what is your customer ID number, the deer’s sex, county/deer
management unit, date of harvest.
Question 7: Do I have to have
the deer with me if I use one of
those registration stations?
Answer: No, you can leave
the deer hanging at camp and
drive to the station without it.
But you will need your hunting
license.
Once you return to your deer,
you must write the registration
confirmation number on the car-
cass tag to show proof of registration. Try to use a ball-point
pen or a permanent marker. A
gel-type pen tends to smear.
Pencils don’t work well on this
surface.
Question 8: What happens if I
get back to the deer and I don’t
have a pen or a good marker to
write the number, is there a way
to get the number again when I
do have the right marker?
Answer: Sure! Just call the
DNR call center at 1-888-9367463 between 7 a.m. and 10
p.m. A customer service rep can
get that number for you. You
just have to remember the registration is not complete until
the number is written on the tag.
Question 9: What happens if
a warden checks my registered
deer? How will the warden
know it is a real confirmation
number?
Answer: The wardens can
verify your confirmation number through their phones or laptops.
Question 10: Where can I find
a place to hunt?
Answer: The Public Lands
Atlas is at http://dnr.wi.gov/
topic/lands/PAL/. This is an
online atlas with all DNR properties, most federal lands and
those owned by counties. The
maps are downloadable to print
at home. The atlas has 441 maps
and contact information for the
various land managers.
Contact the landowner to confirm hunting is allowed before
you go to that property. You can
find the online atlas by going to
the DNR website at dnr.wi.gov
and search this keyword in the
white search box: atlas.
Question 11: Can I hunt in
state parks?
Answer: Generally speaking,
most of the state parks do have
some open areas. But some do
not, due to location near residential areas or environmental
factors.
Check what’s allowed in each
park at dnr.wi.gov, and search
hunting state parks.
A vehicle admission sticker
is required for any vehicle in a
state park.
Question 12: I hear about
people hunting on lands in the
Managed Forest Law. How do I
get an OK to hunt on those areas
and where are they?
Answer: The Managed Forest Law and the Forest Crop
Law are incentive programs for
landowners who use sustainable
forest methods for harvesting,
wildlife management, water
quality and more. When a landowner joins these programs, the
landowner chooses to allow -or not to allow -- public recreation on his or her land.
Lands open to public recreation are only open for hunting,
fishing, hiking, sight-seeing and
cross-country skiing. Fo information on approximate locations of these areas, the DNR
has an online mapping tool on
its website -- MFL open land.
You’ll see a link for “Find a
forester” -- use this to contact
the local DNR forester who has
responsibility for that area and
can help.
Question 13: What is the Voluntary Public Access program
and can I hunt on those lands?
Answer: Voluntary Public
Access provides financial incentives to private landowners who
then open their lands to public
hunting, fishing, trapping and
wildlife viewing.
If you want to hunt on these
lands, go to the DNR website
and read about it -- and please
review the code of conduct for
these properties.
Question: How has the Pocket
Ranger App changed?
Answer: The Pocket Ranger
App has a lot of information to
help you. You can find places
to hunt, rules and regs, license
information, GPS mapping features and more. It is available
in the Apple App Store or the
Android Market on your device.
It’s free.
Question 15: What is new this
season for antlerless permits?
Answer: There are antlerless permits for specific types
of lands, zones and deer management units. The reason for
these permits is to more closely
manage the deer populations on
each land type with the hope of
enhancing the hunting experiences on public land.
Question 16: What’s the
bonus antlerless permit process?
Answer: At the time of purchase of bonus antlerless permits, hunters are asked to pick
the zone, unit and if they are

Green-Rock hunters give
safety educators big boost
By Tony Ends
Editor
BRODHEAD — County
Line Sportsman’s Club members gathered Saturday, Nov.
14, to present a $1,000 donation to Green County Hunters
Education instructors.
Club members Cathy and
Mike Disch hosted the group at
their Bridges Bar and Grill in
Brodhead.
The club held a banquet
in September at which they
sponsored a raffle for a youth
shotgun to raise money for the
donation.
“We’d like to extend a spe-
cial thanks to Matt and Willi
Hanson for the initial donation for that raffle,” said Steve
McBride, for the club. “The
club matched that amount for
our donation to the hunter safety program.
“We recognize the importance of hunter safety, and we
wanted to support our instructors,” he said.
Club members try to meet
once a month during the offseason, rotating meeting places to communities along the
county line. Meetings focus on
service projects the club can
undertake to help area individ-
uals and families in need.
Members combined the
check presentation Saturday
with the group’s first squirrel
hunt. There were 24 individuals and 14 teams signed up for
the squirrel hunt, McBride said.
“We’re getting ready Dec.
14 to sponsor a youth pheasant hunt at the Magnolia Game
Farm. Anyone interested in that
event or in joining our club is
welcome,” McBride said.
Contact the club through
Cathy and Mike Disch at
Bridges for additional information about club meeting dates,
events and outings.

Benefit helps rural Rock County families for 17th holiday season
By Tony Ends
Editor
TOWN OF MAGNOLIA —
Volunteers of Children’s Christmas Benefit Charities Inc. are
asking the public to send them
names of rural Rock County
children who need help over the
holidays.
The all-volunteer organization
delivers food and gifts anonymously and confidentially to
children in families, whom other
charities and organizations typically do not serve.
“Many families are going
through temporary crisis, health
and medical problems, or job
loss and can use a little help this
holiday season,” stated organizer
and founder Brian Knudson, in
a prepared statement, seeking
referrals.
“If you know of a family that
can use help this holiday season with food and gifts for the
children, please contact me at
608 289-2498 or email children-
[email protected],”
Knudson stated.
The organization needs referrals by Friday, Dec. 4. This will
give volunteers time to make
purchases and fill orders before
Christmas.
Deliveries will be made on
Saturday, Dec. 19, beginning at
8 a.m. If volunteers do not find
anyone home, they will continue
attempting delivery until noon
on Christmas Eve.
Knudson started Christmas
Charities Benefit 17 years ago.
He leads the benefit annually,
taking referrals from churches,
schools, law enforcement agencies, neighbors, social workers
and anonymous individuals.
“Names of families are not
necessary, only ages of the children in the family and the address
and phone number if possible,”
he stated in the prepared release.
“We keep addresses confidential.
We handle referrals discreetly.
Everyone is treated with respect
and courtesy.

Wisconsin legislative session:
An extraordinary lost opportunity
I am honored to serve
the 15th Senate District
as your State
Senator.
I wish I
had
something better
JANIS
to report to
RINGHAND
you
about
State Senator what our state
15th Senate
Senate did in
District
your service
this past Friday, Nov. 6.
The State Senate was called
into Extraordinary Session by
the Senate Majority leader.
What was the “extraordinary”
occasion?
After weeks of arm twisting,
the Majority leader announced
he had secured the votes necessary to make sweeping changes
to dismantle the Government
Accountability Board, increase
corporate campaign influence
and enable secret coordination
between politicians and outside
special interest groups.
The Senate is not scheduled to
be on the floor again until January 2016.
Unfortunately, we were not
coming together in the Senate to
discuss ways to help the workers who are going to be laid
off in Janesville by John Deere’s
decision to relocate warehousing
and sub-manufacturing work to
Horicon.
We were not meeting to figure out how to help the 1,000
employees who will lose their
jobs as a result of Oscar Meyer’s
decision to leave Wisconsin.
Addressing these and other
important economic issues
would have been worthy of an
Extraordinary Session.
For decades, Wisconsin has
prided itself on the way we conduct our elections.
Compared to most states, we
have high voter participation in
every part of the state, from people from all walks of life.
Yet our legislature is changing our election laws in ways
that will make significant and
in some cases radical changes
to the way elections are run in
Wisconsin.
Republicans, who currently
govern Wisconsin under virtual one-party rule, proposed
sweeping changes to loosen our
campaign finance laws, to eliminate the non-partisan Government Accountability Board and
replace it with a group of handpicked political appointees.
Many of us in government fear
that the new Elections Board will
be filled with political cronies
and attorneys who will make
it more difficult to investigate
criminal misconduct, ethical violations and campaign shenanigans.
At a time when distrust for
partisan politics is at an all-time
high, we need more accountability from both politicians and
those who are bankrolling elections – not less accountability.
The vast majority of people
in Wisconsin believe there is
already too much money in politics. They believe our political
system is operating under the
Gold Rule – not the Golden Rule.
This Gold Rule now doubles
campaign contribution limits. It
allows corporations to give thousands of dollars to political parties and committees operated and
controlled by legislative leaders.
It permits party bosses to coordinate with outside special inter-
est groups who do not have to
disclose where or how they get
their money.
The bottom line is that these
changes will lead to more negative ads on your TV and radio,
more political flyers in your
mailbox and more robo-calls
interrupting your dinner and
Packer games.
Efforts to undermine the nonpartisan Government Accountability Board, to allow corporate
contributions to flood our elections, and to enable party bosses
to coordinate campaign activity with outside special interest
groups are misguided.
Changes to our election
laws, ethical standards, legislative redistricting and campaign
finance are designed to give a
political advantage to one party.
We should be working to give
Wisconsin an advantage by
focusing on good schools, good
roads and strong communities
rather than angling for partisan
advantages that will do little for
the people of our state.

Brodhead Tire helps customers get vehicles ready for winter
By Tony Ends
Staff Editor
BRODHEAD — Technology in the automotive world is
ever-changing, making it hard
for a motorist to keep pace.
A little sound advice – and
reliable service – from a qualified mechanic or technician
can go a long way.
Some synthetic oil manufacturers, for instance, claim
cars can travel 10,000 miles
between oil changes. That’s
a big adjustment in thinking
for generations who grew up
on lubrication schedules that
advised oil changes every
3,500 to 5,000 miles.
Can a person really drive
two times, three times, as far
between oil changes, without causing problems for an
engine?
“Personally, I think more
frequent oil changes provides
cheap insurance,” said Tim
Babler, who helps run Brodhead Tire and Service Center’s garage for owners Stacy
and Dawn Baumgartner.
“Oil changes depend a lot
on the driving. Is it distance
road miles in a commute up
to Madison, or mostly errand
driving around town? Condensation builds up in constant fluctuation of temperatures, without a chance for
that moisture and impurities
to burn off,” Babler said.
“Engines run richer when
the engine is cold; you get
more by-products accumulating in oil over time.”
With winter months of driving in freezing temperatures,
ice and snow approaching,
preventative maintenance can
save a vehicle owner a lot of
cold weather hassle.
Brodhead Tire still offers a
basic oil change for $19.95.
Scheduling the change now in
October provides an opportune time for pre-winter
inspection.
“Now’s the time of year that
you want to check the tires,
the battery and coolant. That’s
something we do for customers at no charge,” said Babler,

who attended Rock Valley
College to become a vehicle technician and worked on
vehicles a number of years
before joining Brodhead Tire.
Babler also maintains Automotive Service Excellence
certification, which is based
on testing and experience. It
requires re-certification every
5 years. Keeping pace with
changes in engineering and
technology is a must in meeting ASE requirements.
“If you haven’t had your
vehicle radiator flushed in 4
or 5 years,” Babler said, “it’s
a good idea to have it done.

ing more slowly, that same
battery might be in trouble,”
Babler said. “If the battery
is starting to go, you have
less power, and it takes more
cranking power to start a car
in winter.”
Brodhead Tire and Service Center is full service,
even replacing engines and
transmissions if necessary.
Brake work, exhaust system
replacement, diagnostics –
this garage can do it all.

The chemicals in the coolant
wear out over time.
“There are a lot more corrosion inhibitors and lubricants in antifreeze now, but
they do break down. Heater
cores have gotten smaller and
smaller, too, and it’s easy to
plug them up.”
Ensuring a battery is at an
adequate performance level is
important for a car heading
into winter, too.
“A battery might start right
up in 50- and 60-degree
weather, but when it gets
down below Zero, and oil’s

automotive, roll in a changing world, too.
When a household can’t afford to purchase
all four tires on a vehicle at the same time,
what does conventional wisdom advise about
installing one pair of new tires? Should they
go on the front or the back of the vehicle?
“There are two schools of thought on replacing two tires at a time,” Babler said. “Some
companies now advise it’s best to put the new
tires on the back for traction.
“Many cars are being re-designed to put
even more weight in the front of vehicles,
where engines already weighted vehicles. You
don’t want the rear tires to lock up or turn the
vehicle in icy conditions.
“But the front tires are the traction; they do
most of the braking, and they are supposed to
wear quicker on the front of a vehicle. The
best thing is to keep all four tires to the best
tread, as evenly as possible, but I personally
think purchase of just two new tires should go
to the front of the car,” Babler said.
Brodhead Tire is still selling used vehicles
that staff have first checked over completely.
Prices on most used vehicles are under
$5,000. For sales on vehicles priced at more
than $2,500, Brodhead Tire offers a 3-month,
50 percent warranty for parts and labor.
Where should this new tire go in a pair on your car – the front
or the back? Brodhead Tire technicians share two schools of
thought with interested customers.

USDA to provide funding to help butterflies survive
MADISON — The U.S.
Department of Agriculture
(USDA) last week announced
a new conservation effort to
help agricultural producers
in Wisconsin and nine other
states provide food and habitat for monarch butterflies.
This targeted effort in the
Midwest and southern Great
Plains by USDA’s Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) will invest $4
million in 2016 to help combat the iconic species’ decline.
“These once-common butterflies are growing less
familiar, and we know private
lands will continue to play
a crucial role in aiding the
recovery of this species that
serves as an indicator of ecosystem health,” said Jimmy
Bramblett, NRCS State Conservationist in Wisconsin.
“America’s farmers, ranchers and forest landowners are
stewards of the land, and this
effort helps them make volun-
tary improvements that benefit working lands and monarchs.”
The orange-and-black butterflies are known for their
annual,
multi-generational
migration from central Mexico to as far north as Canada.
Monarch populations have
decreased significantly over
the past two decades, in part
because of the decrease in
native plants like milkweed
– the sole source of food for
monarch caterpillars.
NRCS will provide technical and financial assistance to help producers and
conservation partners make
butterfly-friendly
improvements to farms and ranches.
In Wisconsin, NRCS is focusing on integrating milkweed
and high-nectar plants along
field borders, in buffers along
waterways or around wetlands, in pastures and other
suitable locations.
Assistance is available to
producers in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas and Wisconsin.
These states are at the heart
of the monarch migration.
The Environmental Quality
Incentives Program (EQIP)
and remaining funds from the
former Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) provide funding
for this work. Additionally,
NRCS is offering support for
related enhancements through
the Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) to establish monarch habitat. These
enhancements are available
nationwide.
NRCS accepts EQIP and
CSP applications from producers on a continuous basis.
Producers interested in participating should contact their
local USDA service center to
learn more. WRP funds will
be used to enhance monarch
habitat on existing wetland
easements.
These
conservation
improvements not only benefit butterflies, they also
strengthen agricultural operations, support other beneficial insects and wildlife
and improve other natural
resources. Appropriate buffer
habitats and better rangeland
and pasture management practices reduce erosion, increase
soil health, inhibit the expansion of invasive species and
provide food and habitat for
insects and wildlife.
NRCS’ effort contributes to
a multi-agency, international
strategy to reverse the monarch’s population decline in
North America, estimated to
have decreased from one billion butterflies in 1995 down
to about 34 million today.
The Obama administration,
through the National Strategy to Protect Pollinators and
Their Habitat, has a goal of
increasing the eastern population of monarchs back up to
225 million by 2020.
Producers not in the regions
targeted by this effort are
also eligible for assistance to
make conservation improvements to their land that can
benefit monarch butterflies
and many other pollinators,
such as honey bees and native
bees. More than 36 practices
offered by NRCS can provide
benefits to pollinators.
Additionally, this effort
works hand-in-hand with a
3-year-old NRCS honey bee
conservation effort in the
Midwest and Northern Plains.
Learn more about the Monarch Habitat Development
Project and other pollinators.

Study panel makes steady progress Albany Community 1st
toward rules to safeguard health
hosts public meeting
By Tony Ends
Editor
TOWN OF SYLVESTER
— Members of a study committee gathering large scale
livestock operation information to frame local health and
safety ordinances continues to
meet bi-weekly.
Pollution experiences from
industrialized livestock production in California, methods
of monitoring water and dealing with algae blooms from
waste runoff, even industrialscale noise were all discussed
this past week in deliberations
that will run well into December.
A team of scientists is also
continuing to gather data and
research on health and envi-
ronmental impacts of largescale livestock confinement to
assist the study committee.
The volunteer scientists’
goal is to present a white
paper and summary to the
township and Green County
on Dec. 6.
Wisconsin Department of
Natural Resources, the federal Environmental Protection
Agency and state lawmakers
will also receive the scientists’ report and recommendations.
Sylvester’s town study
committee will take up the
scientists’ recommendations,
beginning Dec. 7.
Residents of Sylvester on
the town’s panel will use the
scientists’ work to inform
221114
large-scale livestock facility
siting ordinances to safeguard
health and safety.
It’s all to determine ways
that Sylvester’s town board
can protect wells and streams
from the impact of permitted operations that will bundle waste production of more
than 50 farms (at the present
average herd size in Green
County) onto a single property.
Green County has four
“Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations” or CAFOs.
A 2004 state law that made
large-scale livestock facility regulation uniform across
Wisconsin’s more than 1200
townships has ballooned the
number of CAFOs from a few
dozen to more than 260.
That state statute, however, specifically made provision for rural townships and
counties to condition CAFO
construction where they can

Orfordville’s Strzok
part of UW-Whitewater
volleyball conference title
WHITEWATER — Morgan
Strzok, an Orfordville native and
Parkview High School graduate,
is part of UW-Whitewater volleyball’s 2015 Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference
Tournament championship and
NCAA Division III Tournament
team.
The No. 11 Warhawks posted their conference-leading
15th WIAC Tournament title
in November, defeating 14thranked UW-Stevens Point
25-17, 26-24, 25-19 in the tournament’s final match at UWOshkosh.
With the victory - their 21st in
their last 22 matches - the Warhawks (31-4 overall) clinched
the conference’s automatic bid
to the NCAA Division III Tournament.
UW-Whitewater hosted an
eight-team Regional round of
the 2015 NCAA Division III
Women’s Volleyball Championship Nov. 12-14, at Russell
Arena in the Williams Center. The Warhawks began play
Thursday in a first round match
against Northwestern (Minn.) at
Russell Arena.
UW-Whitewater made its
24th consecutive appearance in
the national tournament.
Hosting their first Regional
round since 2002, the Warhawks
entered the week with a 15-0
record playing in matches at
Russell Arena in 2015. The team
lost a total of four sets at home
this season, and owned eight
victories over teams ranked
among the American Volleyball
Coaches Association’s Division
III Top 25 in 2015.
Strzok, a junior at UW-Whitewater, is majoring in communication.
Eligibility for heating
assistance expanded
More customers with low-tomoderate household incomes
will be eligible to receive heating assistance this year, thanks
to a change in federal guidelines.
Funding from the Energy
Assistance program can help
pay heating bills or weatherize
your home.
To find out if you are eligible:
In Iowa: Call 1-866-6746327 or visit iowa.gov
In Wisconsin: Call 1-866432-8947 or visit wi.gov
We encourage customers to
apply now because funds for
this heating season are limited.
Eligibility for Energy Assistance is not affected by utility account or home ownership
status.

Proceedings of The Green County Board of Supervisors
PROCEEDINGS OF THE GREEN COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
Recessed Budget Session and Public Hearing
2015 Annual Meeting
November 10, 2015
Arthur Carter, Chair, called the meeting to order.
The Clerk read the roll with 29 present, 1 tardy being Leonard, and 1 absent being Davis.
The Board recited the Pledge of Allegiance.
The Chair then made the announcement of the public hearing.
Motion by Mandel, seconded by Furgal to dissolve as a County Board and to convene as a Committee of the
Whole with Chair Carter to conduct the public hearing. Motion carried by a unanimous voice vote.
Chair Carter then invited the public to speak. Six county citizens, Peg Shaeffer, Jen Riemer, Kim Hunter, Kriss
Marion, Pat Skogan and Jacob Marty, spoke in favor of the county appropriating money for a hydrogeological
study of Green County. Chair Carter indicated that the matter of a study would be referred back to the Land and
Water Conservation Committee.
Motion by Mandel, seconded by Fiduccia to dissolve as a Committee of the Whole and to reconvene as a County Board. Motion carried by a unanimous voice vote.
The 2016 Budget was then read by Finance and Accounting Chair, Harvey Mandel and Finance Director Julie
Sachs. A motion to amend the budget to change payroll raises from 1% to 0% was made by Klossner. The
motion did not garner a second, and was declared dead due to lack of a second. A question by a citizen, Barb
Woodriff, regarding money for a hydrogeological study was clarified by Chair Carter and Corporation Counsel
Bucholtz: money could be transferred at any future time from the undesignated general fund with 2/3 vote of the
county board, once the scope and cost of a study could be determined by the committee.
Vice Chair Mandel called for a five (5) minute recess at approximately 7:45 p.m.
