Severe Livestock Loss
And Property Damage
The worst blizzard that any of
the old timers can remember
hit this area with 70 -mile an
hour winds and 15 inches of
snow from Friday morning until
Sunday morning. During this
period nothing moved but
emergency vehicles and they
didn't go too far.
Drifts from 15 to 20 feet are
common with all the snow
ending in the farm places and in
town. Visibility was zero for
most of 'the period with electrical outages reported all
around Lake Park, while the
lights only flickered a time or
two in'town, the rural areas and
Ocheyedan, Harris, Melvin and
the: surrounding farms areas
were without electricity from
about 8:00 p. m..on Friday night
until Sunday afternoon. Spirit
Lake was without power in
parts of town for 11 hours.
Arnolds Park, Okoboji, Orleans,
Wahpeton and most of the lakes
area were without power from
Friday night until Sunday.
Cattlemen in the area all lost
st>me animals and some had
tremendous losses with about
200 gone at the Cohrs farm and
200at the Bob Ahrenstorff farm.
Other losses of 30, 40, 50 and 75
head dead in the storm, came
from almost every farm that
had any livestock. 700 was the
count loss by Tuesday noon in
Dickinson County alone. Three
to five thousand chickens are
dead at the Hilltop Chicken
Farm and the possibility of
having to. destroy the rest
(18,000). It will take two or three
days to make the decision.
Hilltop was without power from
Friday night until Sunday afternoon.
Many emergency calls were
handled by the local CB club
and men on snowmobiles were
dispatched to handle the
situation. One of the outstanding rescue missions was to
evacuate Mrs. Henry Kamphuis
from her farm home just south
of Lake Park. Frank Schierholt
and Monte Baker brought her
into the Clayton Arnold home in
the heighth of the storm on
Saturday night, which '.vas the
first one they could find fumbling around in the dark', then
they had to drag her on her back
through the snow into the house
as it was impossible for her to
walk in the deep .snow.
The other side of the lake
around the country club was
without power during the same
period and many of the homes
got down to below freezing
breaking the water pipes and
causing considerable damage.
One quick thinker on the other
side of the lake poured whiskey
in the toilet bowels so they
wouldn't freeze. They then
spent the time in the basement
under matresses and in
snowmobile suits to live it out,
with the temperature getting
down to 19 degrees in the house.
The Stan Johnson residence
became fully occupied with 19
people spending the duration at
his place. Doug Forbes was
working on his house next door
and moved into Stan's about 3
on Friday afternoon, followed
by Mr. and Mrs. Dick
Zweibahnen and- two children.
Mr. and Mrs. Maynard Johnson
spent all day Saturday and over
night. On Saturday evening
Stan ventured to the Bob
Gunderson house and rescued
the entire family, (in six trips)
the Cohrs farm about one mile west of there. The bottom photos
show the loss at the Bob Ahfenstorff farm where it is estimated that
200 died. The other photo shows a roundup on Monday afternoon
going down highway nine back to the Cohrs farm. (NEWS PHOTO)
as they were huddled around
the basement furnace trying to
keep warm, and with a new set
of twins that became a little
difficult, they all spent the
night at Johnson's and on
Sunday moved to the Clayton
Arnold residence. Stan had a
portable generator in his pickup truck and ran it enough to
keep the house warm.
The
biggest
human
emergency in our area was the
Lake Park Care Center being
without power all through the
same period, as they are connected to Iowa Light and
Power. Most of the beds were
eventually moved to the dining
area and the gas operated
stoves and ovens in the kitchen
turned up to provide heat. The
fire department finally got a
generator hooked up with,
enough power to operate the
heating system until power was
restored.
It's a miracle that more lives
were not lost during the period
as it came suddenly at a time
when a lot of people were
caught away from home and
spent the entire weekend held
up somehwere. Phone service
remained good during the
period except for a long wait at
limes to get an open line. The
snow began to fall about 8:00 in
ihe morning bul things began to
pick up about noon and by one p.
m. the wind was blowing a gail
and everyone started heading
for home with most business
places locking up for the day.
County plows have been out
continuously since Sunday
morning attempting to open the
roads with the emergencies
coming first. Some of the drifts
they have been going through
you wouldn't believe using a
combination of • plow and
payloader to make one way
paths through the bigger drifts.
The storm that started out to
be a a mild one, with a
prediction of 3 to 4 inches of
snow and 40 mile an hour winds
really started to build up with
barometer dropping to the
lowest reading in history for the
area. The temperature .dropped
to.20 below on Saturday morning during the 70 mile an hour
wind which brought the windchill factor to about 90 below
zero. This was the first below
zero reading of the winter in
one of the mildest up to now in
recorded history.
All during the storm the Lake
Park Utilities didn't receive a
single call of anyone without
lights which is a tribute to local
crew for the condition of their
lines which they have worked at
diligently for the last two yean
and it piad off. The town was
never on emergency power all
through the storm.

Men Are Kicking
The Habit
Men are kicking the cigarette
habit. The percentage of adult
male smokers has dropped
sharply in the last decade.
Some are switching to pipes and
cigars.
There are some advantages to
the switch-at least for ;the
smokers. According to the 1973
"Health Consequences'; of
Smoking," a government
publication formerly called the
Surgeon General's report, pipe
and cigar smokers live longer
than cigarette smokers. But not
as long as nonsmokers.
The typical cigar smoker,
says the report, smokes fewer
than five cigars a day, while the
average pipe smoker fills his
pipe about 20 times daily. But,
generally cigar and pipe
smokers' do not inhale. As a
result, their rates of emphysema, chronic bronchitis,
coronary heart disease, ,and
lung cancer are not as high as
cigarette smokers. However,
their death rates from cancer of
the mouth, throat, and stomach
are about, the .same as those for
cigarette smokers..
<_,
.. JNewevidence,also.,shpw,s1(hat
malignant skin tumors in
animals appear more rapidly
and in larger numbers when the
skin is painted with cigar tars
rather than cigarette tars.
In addition to the plight of the
smoker, concern is mounting
about the effects of open indoor
burning
on
involuntary
smokers.
Most nonsmokers
consider smoke from cigars and
pipe even more noxious than
cigarette smoke, and research
on pollution is just beginning.

New officers of the UPW were
installed at their regular
meeting on Jan. 8. Mrs. Helen
Piper gave the New Year's
devotional reading from
Romans, Chapter eight. She
also read from the book "Who
Am I, God?" written by Majorie
Holmes. She closed with a
prayer.
Mrs. Evelyn Walker and Mrs.
Helen Borland, were in charge
of the installation of the new
officers for 1975. It was an
impressive ceremony entitled
"Windows of Light." Scripture
passages, solo by Mrs. Bonnie
Ciark and group singing of
"Lead, Kindly Light" helped
carry out the theme.
It was reported that the one
hundred dollars'we had sent to
Reverend and Mrs. Al
Schlarhotz in Pakistan had been
acknowledged and would be
used by them for general work
of the church there. A box of
needed items had also been sent
to Hillcrest at Dubuque.
Our "sew and chat" meeting
will be on Feb. 12. Plans are to
make drapes for the director's
cabin at the Presbyterian camp
and other items needed for
mission work.

because of budgetary constraints, the state is, maintaining a very low operation and

Because of this, it is difficult

to maintain an appropriately
high standard of area
management. Existing levels of
operation and maintenance
funding are too often simply

deserve - recreation' areas
managed at a level at least
equivalent to the national
average. To this end, the
Conservation Commission is
seeking increased funding
levels for the upcoming fiscal
playgrounds, and on a
multitude of private areas
(campground*, riding facilities,
gotf courses, farms, etc.).
It is interesting to note, also
that the Conservation Commission actually manages a
large portion of the federal land
in Iowa, primarily, lands adjacent to the Corps of
Engineers reservoirs.
In order to maintain
recreation areas in a quality
manner and at the same time
meet the increasingly heavy
recreation demands being
placed upon them, sufficient
operating and maintenance
funding is a necessity.
The operation and maintenance funding capacity of an
agency can be expressed as
amount spent per visitor day;
that is, the average amount
spent
for
an
area's
management per daily area
visitor. On this basis, the
Federal Government spends an
average of $1.00 per visitor day
on"its facilities.,Iowa's county

. What was the Mona Lisa thinking about when Leonardo da Vinci painted her? Was she smiling? Some say that
she was actually closer to tears!
It is centuries since Leonardo and his model lived,
but throngs still stand before the painting in the Louvre
and wonder at it. It is much smaller than people expect,
but that in no way diminishes its attraction. For the Mona
Lisa symbolizes the mystery of life. No matter how great
our curiosity, we can never know all the answers.
There is a great deal of mystery in the Church too.
Often this bothers those who would seek a logical explanation for everything. That is where we need faith—for faith
is, in part, an acceptance of what we inherently fail but
can't prove in ordinary, everyday terms.
•'
Where to find faith? Admittedly, it can be quite a
quest. But a good place to start that quest is in church.

IOWA FARM
OUTLOOK
The
1974 Census
of
Agriculture got underway the
week of December 29th with the
mailing of approximately four
million report forms to farms
and ranches in the 50 States
according to Vincent P.
Barabba, Director of the
Bureau of the Census. The
Bureau is part of the Department of Commerce's Social and
Economic Statistics Administration.
Farmers and ranchers are
being asked to report on their
agricultural operations during
1974. This; 1974 census, the
Nation's 20th farm census in a
series that started in 1840, will
update data most recently
obtained in 1970 and 1969
operations. Primary emphasis
will be on obtaining information
about farms and ranches
-' with sales of $2,500 or more
-'annually. Such operations
accounted for 98 percent of the
total value of all agricultural
products sold in 1969.
To avoid undue burden on
small farmers and .to reduce
processing
costs, a short
version of the census report
form is being mailed to the over
one
million
addressees
estimated to have had both
farm receipts and expenses of
less than $2,000 in 1973. All other
addressees are receiving the
standard form.
.
Forms are being mailed to a
- list of the following; persons
who filled out Schedule F of the
1973 individual income tax
return, persons listed with other
Federal agencies as associated
with agricultural operations,
and those reporting large or
unusual farm operations in the
1969 census (such as institutional farms, farms on
•-Indian reservations, etc.). This
combined list of addressees
- f o r m s a pool of potential
respondents in the census. The^
;
•.., final total of farms counted is^
•:;.- expected to be well under three
million, as it was in 1969.
A new kind of report form is
being used in the 1974 farm
census in order to reduce costs.
The report form, instruction
sheet, and return envelope have
been printed and addressed in a
""•• single
operation,
thus
•" eliminating separate printing,
assembling, stuffing, and the
'"'"attaching of the printed address
":'"1"fabels. It is the first time that
9;
' '"this type of'operation has'beeri
*" used in a Federal census.
Also, for the first time, the
" forms are being mailed out at
'•', 'the third class bulk rate to
' ; 'reduce postage cost. The return
'• envelope containing the farm
operator's completed report
carries first class postage to
protect the confidentiality of the
T._ , information reported.
Completed forms are to be
mailed back as soon as possible.
Census by mail allows
operators to fill out their reports
at their convenience and use
their farm business records.
Estimates are acceptable and
should be reported in the absence of records.
Recipients of census report
forms are cautioned not to
discard them. Follow-up
mailings costing additional
postage will be required until all
forms are received. Even if the
recipient is not farming, the
form should be returned with
that fact noted.
First Agriculture
Census in 1840
The United States took its
first Census of Agriculture in
1840. Until 1920 they were taken
every ten years; since then,
there has been one every five
years, recently covering years
ending in "4" and "9."
The five-year censuses are
the only source of statistics on
agriculture that are comparable county by county for
the entire Nation. They are the
sole source of comprehensive
agricultural data tabulated for
each State and for the U. S. as a
whole for farms classified by
size, tenure, type of
organization, market value of
products sold, and type of farm
organization.
The selection of questions in
the '74 census was based on
needs expressed by users of
agriculture census data, experience gained in earlier
censuses, results of a January
1974 pretest census, and
recommendations of the
'Census Advisory Committee on
Agriculture Statistics. This
committee is composed of
representatives of farm
organizations, academic,
government, and research
groups concerned with
agriculture, as well as
organizations representing
manufacturers and distributors
of farm supplies and equipment, and users of farm
products. Also, there is continuous cooperation with
agencies in the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
Response to the census is
required by law (Title 13,
United States Code). By the
same law, information furnished on report forms is kept
confidertial; It may be' 'seen
only by sworn Census employees and may be used only
for statistical purposes. Even
other government agencies
cannot obtain or use the report
made by any operator. The law
also provides that copies
retained by the operator are
immune for legal process.
Serious Crime In U.S.
Continues Upward Trend
Serious crime in the United
States continued its upward
trend during the first nine
months of 1974, rising 16 percent, Attorney General William
B. Saxbe reported Friday.
The increase was the largest
for the period in six years. By
comparison, crime rose only
one percent during the first nine
months last year.
Mr. Saxbe noted that the
upsurge in crime began in the
last quarter of 1973. Crime
increased five percent in that
period, 15 percent in the first
quarter of 1974, and 16 percent
during the first half of this year.
"The continuing increase in
crime
requires
an intensification of our efforts to
identify the causes, improve
crime prevention, and insure
swift prosecution," the Attorney General said.
The latest figures were
contained in the FBI's Uniform
Crime Reports, which were
released today by FBI Director
Clarence M. Kelley. The reports
are based on crime statistics
furnished by city, county, and
state law enforcement agencies.
Only 12 major cities reported
actual crime decreases for the
first nine months, compared
with 71 for the same period last
year.

director of the University fof
Wisconsin's Motor Vehicle
Research Laboratory. As such,
he knows vehicle performance
characteristics under all types
of conditions.
•
He served for many years as
chairman of the National Safety
Council's Committee on Winter
Driving Hazards - a highly
qualified group of researchers
who have studied vehicle
equipment
and driving
techniques- designed to help
passenger car and truck driy.ers

Easton is also a nationally
recognized
accident -'"'investigator and authority d on

such, he has studied the reasons
why drivers get themselvesi n v o l v e d , sometinie's
needlessly, in traffic crashes:
According to Easton, the
major factor in winter mishaps
is over-confidence. A driye.r
thinks he has more traction
than the winter-slick surface
actually provides. He can't stop
as short as he thinks he can; to
say nothing of maintaining
steering and cornering control
and even go-power to get
started.
.'."'
'
As one example of this overconfidence, Easton said that
drivers forget about the greater
distances required to bring .a
car to a stop on snow and ice,
and consequently tend to drive
too fast on slippery surfaces! As
an extreme condition - glare ice

from a speed of Only 20 mph
may be as much as 200 feet or
even more, which is somewhere
around 12 car lengths. At

example, the stopping distance
on ice may be over one-quarter
of a mile, according to Easton!

clothing in layers, one with the

another with the fur facing
Outward. Such an arrangement
greatly increases the insulating
effect of dead air space, notes
Folk.
Keeping warm in the arctic is
one problem; avoiding
overheating and the sweat that
can cause a deadly chill is
another. To avoid the latter
hazard, Eskimo clothing has .a
, built-in ventilation system. Folk
found that this system works by
having drawstrings at tlie
bottom of the pants and parka.
When the Eskimo becomes
overheated, he opens the
drawstrings which allows cool
air to circulate up through the,
clothing and • out around the
parka hood. If the Eskimo
becomes cool, he merely pulls
the draw strings, cutting off the
f l o w o f air.

that make the maximum use of
insulating trapped air and

to prevent overheating may not
sound very sophisticated, but

Easton was quick to point out
that while these traction aids
produce considerable improvements in both traction and
braking ability, they do not
improve cornering ability
appreciably when used, on the
rear wheels only.
;
In offering drivers other
research developed by the
Committee, Easton emphasized
the importance of getting a
"feel" for the road surface.
You must constantly know just
how much or how little traction
your tires have.
Away from Iraffic, try your
brakes gently or accelerate in
spurts to find out whether the
wheels slip or spin. If they do,
slow down and do all
maneuvering with a gentle,
delicate touch.
Even with the help of traction
aids - snow tires, studs where

like most simple things it
works.
Each year the chemical industry wastes millions of
dollars of energy and materials
by using outdated chemical
reactions-at least that is the
opinion of University of Iowa
Chemistry... Professor ; Stanley
Wawzpnek- ...
•-..-<•
Wawzonek hopes to help save
both energy and materials by
developing new organic
chemical methods that use
electricity to make new compounds. As he puts it, "Many
industrial chemists are as
conservative as anyone else and
they like to use old, time-tested
operational procedures that
center
around
mixing
chemicals to make new compounds."
Wawzonek's idea essentially
involves using a direct electrical current to change one
substance into another. Some
areas of the chemical industry,
such as chlorine production,
already use electro-chemical
procedures.
"The
problem," says
Wawzonek, "is that many industrial chemical reactions are
energy wasters, pollution
producers and unnecessary
consumers of raw materials."
He continues, "When chemical
energy is replaced by electrical
energy, the reactions involve
fewer steps, consume no wasted
material and use a smaller
amount of energy."

containers of snowmobile fuel in
their cars because of the safety
factors involved.
Commission officials warned
that it is possible that sparks
from
static electricity
generated from metal, cloth or
foam objects rubbing against

equipment, or the switch which
operates the trunk light can
produce a spark which could be
disasterous.
Another highly dangerous
situation is the ever present
potential of a rear-end collision
in which the gas container could
be ruptured, immediately increasing the danger of an explosion.
The Commission, suggested
that snowmobile operators plan
ahead and acquire sufficient
gas in the area they plan to
visit. It is best to carry extra

Then are several steps that
can be.taken to confirm the
reliability of a travel organizer.
Invariably, citizens are "ripped-off because the vendor is
unreliable or unstable. The first
step of investigation is ^to
request'a list of professional
trade associations to which the
organizer belongs. ..Some of
these are the Air Traffic Conference of America (ATC),
International Air Transport
Association tlATA) and the
American Society of 'Travel
Agents (ASTA).
For example, bne"rion-profit
student travel organization; the
Intra-American Student
Foundation, requires that the
vendor be appointed and bonded
by ATC and IATA, arid be a
member of ASTA in addition to
carrying a million dollar contingent liability insurance

Each summer American high
school students experience
unique study-travel programs
all over the world - that is if the
travel package they have
purchased gets them off the
ground and out of the country.
An estimated 250,000 students
enroll in study travel programs
; each year, but of that total,
thousands are literally robbed.
The majority of study-travel
promoters are reliable, but
many are "fly-by-night"
operators. There are numerous
tales of travel organizers,
known in-the trade as "body
brokers," , who declare
bankruptcy, are indicted for
fraud, or are barred from doing
business in a particular state.
Since 1970, more than 4,000
students have been stranded
because of unscrupulous
businessmen.
Probably the first stranding

According to the State Fire

required to follow the following
safety regulations when

The container must: be

name of .the liquid within, have
a tight-fitting cap which will
prevent leakage, and have
ample room in the container for

they are met they reduce Ih*
risk of default. On the other
hand/there are stable, reliable
organizations which may not
meet these criteria. These are
simply guideposts which are
helpful in the travel organizer s
evaluation.
Also, interested parties
should contact the advertised
airline which is to be used for
the trip to learn if indeed the
organizer has contracted for
the transportation. Other points
that should be investigated
include the vendor's credit
rating and reputation. These
can be checked by contacting
the Better Business Bureau, the
Chamber of Commerce and the
' local district attorney's office in
the vendor's home town.
Finally, an interested participant should request a list of
previous customers who can be
contacted for an unbiased
evaluation of the program.
Study-travel programs can be
a wonderful cultural and
educational experience, if indeed you get what you
bargained for.
