This entire event was created to spread the message about drug usage to not only the students during the National Red Ribbon Week, but to an entire community! Education on drug usage and an empowerment message is the most important thing we can bring to a community. It all started when one of our very astute retired business RZQHUV.D\)XONHUVRQVWHSSHGLQWR&KHFNHUV·RIÀFHZLWKKHU Wall Street Journal in hand and asked if she could see me. I FDPHXSIURQWDQGWKHÀUVWWKLQJVKHVDLGZKHQVKHVDZPH was, “Have you seen this?” I thought maybe she was referring to the latest statistical report put out by Dr. Barry Sample at Quest Diagnostics, but I thought I would ask.

I did tell Kay that I was aware of the new statistics. She said to me, “What do you do about this?” I said, “Well, normally all we can do is uphold the integrity of the drug testing process and WU\WREXVWWKHPVRWKHHPSOR\HUVGRQ·WKDYHWRKDYHDSRVLWLYH worker on their workforce”. Kay said, “So, what ARE you going to do about this?” I said, “I am not sure”. Ever since Checkers began testing, 11 years ago this last February, the positives in the workforce have been on the rise. We always review the statistics every year showing the locations of the positives, which drugs are the most prevalent and which workforce trades are being affected the most. I am in constant DZHRIKRZPXFKLWFKDQJHVHYHU\\HDUEXWLWLVGLIÀFXOWWRWU\ DQG ÀJXUH RXW KRZ WR GR VRPHWKLQJ DERXW WKLV HYHU JURZLQJ epidemic.

I knew we needed someone that could be a heavy hitter, someone that could make us all think before we decide to go down that path. I went home, visited with my husband, Michael McCollum from Fulkerson-Stevenson Funeral Home, Funeral Director and Deputy Coroner for Richland County and told him what had taken place.

I asked him if one of his former trainers, Dr. Gary Dale, could make an impact on our kids, parents, grandparents, business owners and everyone in the community.

The cost reduction steps will begin in late 2015 and reflect recent, current and expected market conditions. )RUWKHFRPSDQ\·VVDOHV and revenues outlook has weakened, with 2015 sales and revenues now expected to be about $48 billion, or $1 billion lower than the previous outlook of about $49 billion. For 2016, sales and revenues are expected to be about 5 percent below 2015. Key steps planned by the company include: An expected permanent reduction in CatHUSLOODU·V VDODULHG DQG PDQagement workforce, including agency, of 4,000 – 5,000 people between now and the end of 2016, with most occurring in 2015, and with a total possible workforce reduction of more than 10,000 people, including the contemplated consolidation and closures of manufacturing facilities occurring through 2018. The company will offer a voluntary retirement enhancement program for qualifying employees, which will be completed by the end of 2015. Slightly less than half of the $1.5 billion of cost reduction is expected to be from lower Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) costs. The reduction in SG&A will largely be in place and effective in 2016 and occur across the company. The remaining cost reductions are expected to come from lower period manufacturing costs, including savings from additional contemplated facility consolidations and closures, which could impact more than 20 facilities and slightly more than 10 percent of manufacturing square footage. A portion of these cost reductions are expected to be effective in 2016, with more savings anticipated in 2017 and 2018. “We are facing a convergence of challenging marketplace conditions in key regions and industry sectors – namely in mining and energy,” said Doug Oberhelman, Caterpillar Chairman and CEO. ´:KLOH ZH·YH DOUHDG\ PDGH substantial adjustments as these market conditions have emerged, we are taking even more decisive actions now.

Since 2013, Caterpillar has closed or announced plans to close or consolidate more than 20 facilities, impacting 8 million square feet of manufacturing space. The company has also reduced its total workforce by more than 31,000 since mid-2012. Mining equipment sales are far below the prior peak and are substantially below what Caterpillar considers a reasonable replacement level. Oil and gas has declined substantially as a result of lower oil prices, and construction equipment sales are well below prior peaks in North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa, the 0LGGOH(DVWDQG$VLD3DFLÀF Restructuring actions could impact more than 20 facilities across three large segments ; Construction Industries, Resource Industries and Energy & Transportation.

Fullmer began working at the Sidney factory in 1985 as an Agriculturalist and after four years was transferred to California. In 1993, he was promoted to Agricultural Manager and moved to Wyoming where he worked for six years before returning to Sidney. Space planting has been one of two impactful changes in growing sugar beets; for many years sugar beets were planted very thickly and workers were hired to thin them. This was hard manual labor that took hours, but in the mid 1980s Plant to Stand was introduced which is a coating around each seed that makes planting easier, allowing more space between plants with less need to thin. The introduction of GMO Roundup Ready Beets in 1999 was the second big change for beet farmers as they cut down on weed growth LQWKHÀHOGV´5RXQGXS5HDG\ Beets allowed growers to KDYHZHHGIUHHÀHOGVDQGWKH yield increased tremendously.

Consider Reconditioning Too-dry Soybeans and Other Grain The potential for damage during handling increases when soybeans are too dry. Warm, dry weather can result in soybeans being too dry at harvest. “The soybeans lose weight and become brittle, increasing the potential for handling damage when they are too dry,” North Dakota State University Extension Service agricultural engineer Ken Hellevang says. “Also, producers lose money at lower moisture contents.” Producers may want to recondition soybeans that were harvested at lower moisture contents to bring the moisture content up to the market standard of 13 percent. On a 40-bushel-per-acre yield, harvesting soybeans at 9 percent moisture content, rather than 13 percent, is equal to 1.8 bushels of lost weight per acre. At $9 per bushel, that is $16.20 per acre. Just as grain is dried with bin fans, soybeans can be reconditioned by operating fans during periods with the desired air temperature and relative humidity. Reconditioning reTXLUHV KLJK DLUÁRZ UDWHV IRU several weeks with air at the appropriate temperature and relative humidity. Hellevang recommends producers operate aeration fans during weather with an average relative humidity of about 70 percent if they want to recondition soybeans to 13 percent during normal fall temperatures of 30 to 60 F. If a fan runs continuously, the beans will lose moisture during periods of low humidity and gain moisture in high humidity. Be aware that the air will be heated 3 to 5 degrees as it goes through the fan, which reduces the air relative humidity slightly. A reconditioning zone develops and moves slowly through the bin in the direction of the airflow, which is similar to a drying zone in natural-air drying. Depending on geographic location, not enough hours of appropriate temperature and humidity air may be available to move the reconditioning zone through the entire bin during the fall. Reconditioning occurs the IDVWHVWZKHQWKHDLUÁRZUDWH FXELFIHHWRIDLUÁRZSHUPLQXWH per bushel (cfm/bu), is high and the air is warm and humid. It will be the most successful in a drying bin with a fully perfo- UDWHGÁRRUDQGDIDQWKDWFDQ deliver at least 0.75 cfm/bu. (YHQZLWKWKLVDLUÁRZPRYLQJ a reconditioning front all the way through the bin probably would take at least a month of fan operation. Producers need to compare the cost of fan operation ZLWK WKH EHQHÀW RI PDUNHWLQJ at the desired moisture content. To estimate the cost of operating the fan, assume a 1 horsepower fan motor will use 1 kilowatt of electricity for each hour of operation. For example, if reconditioning the soybeans takes 30 days of fan operation, that is 7,200 hours. Achieving an DLUÁRZUDWHRIFIPEXRQ DIRRWGLDPHWHUELQÀOOHG feet deep with soybeans would require a 15 horsepower fan. The cost to operate the fan, assuming an electricity cost of 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, is $10,800. Increasing the moisture content from 9 to 13 percent would increase the quantity of soybeans by 1,019 bushels. At a price of $9 per bushel, this is worth $9,171, which is less than the cost of operating the fan in this example. You would need only a 3 hp fan to provide DQDLUÁRZUDWHRIDERXW but reconditioning the beans would take about 90 days. If you ran the fan just in periods of very high humidity, such as during fog or when the relative humidity is near 100 percent, the soybeans in part of the bin would be too wet to be stored safely. Mixing the wet layers with dry layers would reduce the spoilage risk and discounts for marketing wet beans. However, stirring increases the bean damage. Emptying the bin and moving the beans through a grain-handling system will provide only limited mixing because the majority of the grain comes from the top of the bin in a funnel shape with a center-unloading sump. A humidistat can operate the fan when the relative humidity will average about 70 percent. Even though the humidity level varies considerably during the day, it will average about 70 percent if the fan is operated for a time when the humidity is 90 percent and for a time when it is 50 percent. Setting the humidistat to operate the fan when the humidity exceeds about 55 percent would be a reasonable starting point. However, the humidity setting would need to be adjusted based on measured soybean moisture content. Hellevang recommends that to avoid wetting the beans to moisture levels unsafe for storage, add a second humidistat to stop the fan when the relative humidity reaches very high levels or use a microprocessor-based fan controller that monitors temperature and humidity, and runs the fan only when air conditions will bring the crop to the desired moisture content. A disadvantage of these options is that the fan does not run as many hours. Controlling the fan manually and operating it during the night and early portion of the day, based on the measured humidity, is another option, but fan and moisture control is not as accurate. Soybeans expand when they absorb moisture, so a moisture content increase of more than a point or two can be problematic. It could create enough pressure to damage WKHJUDLQELQ·VEROWHGFRQQHFtions or even cause the bin to rupture. The bin warranty may be voided if damage occurs while reconditioning grain. “One way to reduce the pressure is to unload some beans from the bin periodically,” Hellevang says. “Another way to reduce the damage potential is to use a negative pressure system to pull humid air down through the soybeans and remove the soybeans from the top of the bin as they are reconditioned.” Another option for reducing the pressure is to use a vertical-stirring auger to mix the beans periodically, but stirring may damage the beans. However, these methods of reducing pressure have not been well-researched and DUHEDVHGRQÀHOGH[SHULHQFH primarily with smaller bins.

We are seeing several late-season stem diseases show up in North Dakota; notably, brown stem rot and charcoal rot. Now is a great time to examine your soybeans for diseases; particularly stem disease whose symptoms appear late in the season; brown stem rot, charcoal rot and sudden death syndrome which is not yet found in North Dakota. To maximize your ability to check for soybean diseases bring a knife, and if needed, a magnifying glass. Brown Stem Rot (BSR) BSR has been found in multiple locations in ND. Symptoms and signs begin to occur in mid-August. Leaf symptoms may or may not occur, and are not particularly diagnostic. Leaf symptoms of BSR rot include a yellowing (chlorotic) and browning (necrotic) between the leaf veins Stem symptoms are much more important. To check plants for brown stem rot take a knife and slice the lower stem longitudinally. Brown stem rot will cause a browning of the center of the stem. 3ODQWVZLWK%65KDYH¶OHDGLQ DSHQFLOORRN·RQO\WKHFHQWHU of the stem is dark. Charcoal Rot Charcoal rot is caused by a pathogen that can infect VR\EHDQVFRUQDQGVXQÁRZers. Symptoms of the disease GRQ·WJHQHUDOO\DSSHDUXQWLOWKH reproductive stages of growth, and the disease is more common when the latter half of summer is dry. Field-wide symptoms appear as patches of plants that matured quicker than healthy plants, resulting in prematurely dead soybeans. The top leaves may turn brown and premature leaf drop will occur. Stem symptoms. The roots and lower stem of plants with charcoal rot may appear gray. Scrape or shave off the outer tissue of the lower stem with a knife. Infected plants will be covered with black microsclerotia, giving the appearance of being dipped in charcoal dust. Microsclerotia can be observed with a magnifying glass, but they are very small. Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) SDS has not yet been confirmed in ND, but it has Diana Amiot - Dryland Crop Production Research Specialist at the NDSU Williston Research Extension Center been found in Ottertail County, MN. SDS is not usually observed until early August, it is typically associated with soybean cyst nematode, and when the two act together VLJQLÀFDQW\LHOGORVVFDQRFFXU Foliar symptoms of the SDS include chlorosis and necrosis between the leaf veins. Unlike BSR, these foliar symptoms consistently occur when plants are infected with SDS. Stem symptoms. Take a knife and longitudinally slice open the lower stem and root ball. With SDS, the center of the stem remains white, but a light brown discoloration may occur on the outer stem tissue.

USCA Conducts Annual Membership Meeting Submitted by the CattlePHQ·V$VVRFLDWLRQ The United States CatWOHPHQ·V$VVRFLDWLRQ 86&$ concluded its annual membership meeting Oct. 3 in Bismarck, North Dakota. The meeting, held in conjunction ZLWK 86&$ VWDWH DIÀOLDWH ,Qdependent Beef Association of North Dakota (I-BAND), brought producers from across the country, including California, Indiana, Virginia, South Dakota, Nevada and Montana.

Of particular note, several speakers included updates regarding the (3$·V:DWHUVRIWKH86UXOH implementation and served as a precursor to the eventual stay ordered across the nation this past week. USCA will continue to be active on this issue and others as the year draws to a close.

As we continue to build on policy successes in DC, the need for a strong and active membership base is as important as ever. The meeting also served as a platform for elections to the USCA Officers team and nominations to the Board of Directors. The slate of Directors to be voted on by the membership in the coming months will serve our members and the U.S. cattle industry well.” USCA members will receive a mail-in ballot to vote on regional Director nominations, and policy statements and revisions that were introduced and addressed in Bismarck. 7KH VODWH RI ([HFXWLYH 2IÀcers, as voted on by the membership at the annual meeting, for 2016 is as follows: President: Danni Beer, Vice-President: Kenny Graner, Secretary: Whitney Klasna, Treasurer: Jane Wooster, Parliamentarian: Chuck Kiker.

Killing frost is at 28 degrees Fahrenheit. When dealing with winter squash, light frosts will not harm the fruit. Removing before the killing frost is desired, when harvesting leave a few inches of the stem attached. Except for acorns, cure in a warm (80 degree F) spot for 10 days for long term storage. Apples can tolerate temps approaching 25 degrees Fahrenheit before freeze damage occurs. If your apples do freeze, wait for them to thaw before picking and use promptly.

The funds are being provided through the Rural Cooperative Development Grant program, which KHOSV IXQG QRQSURÀW JURXSV such as rural cooperative development centers and higher education institutions. “The cooperative business model has been very successful in improving the economies of our rural communities,” Mensah said. “As we celebrate October as National Cooperative Month, we are pleased to bring a spotlight to these worthy groups.” Development Centers can use RCDG funds for feasibility studies, strategic planning, leadership and operations training, and business plan development. As part of this grant program, recipients are required to contribute matching funds that equal 25 percent of total project costs. Projects in 22 states are receiving RCDG funding.

Maybe you are or have been a 4-H volunteer leader. Growing up as a “town kid,” I was not in a 4-H club. Typically, kids who lived on farms were in 4-H. However, I liked doing all the sorts of things that my friends in 4-H did, including gardening, baking and sewing. I certainly liked looking at all my cousLQ·V SXUSOH ´JUDQG FKDPSLRQµ ribbons earned at the county fair for her 4-H projects. Two of my own “city kids” are 4-H members and my third child was enrolled through his senior year of high school. My children have gathered bountiful lifelong skills in everything from public speaking to health, gardening, sewing, baking, science and technology, outdoor skills, dog training, art and photography. :LWKP\NLGV·LQYROYHPHQW in 4-H clubs, I became a club leader many years ago. I have learned new skills too. I learned how to train our three dogs, as much as dachshunds allow “training.” I also learned how to take decent photos with my digital camera. As part of my job at NDSU, I also help create 4-H food and health-related materials. ,DGPLUHP\FKLOGUHQ·VEXOletin boards with their collections of blue, pink and purple Member FDIC Enjoy a ton of research in this tiny blue package. At first glance, a Betaseed sugarbeet seed may not seem too formidable. It is, after all, only 3 millimeters tall. But contained within each blue pellet is the accumulation of 160 years of sugarbeet know-how. Each seed variety is the result of 10 years of research and three years of testing. It’s this intense pursuit of science that develops MultiSource® varieties and gives growers confidence.

Graham, an Ohio school principal. Now the 4-H youth development program reaches more than 6 million youth in urban, suburban and rural areas throughout the U.S. and beyond. Food-related programs have been popular topics for children enrolled in 4-H. The other day, our state 4-H program leader lent me two 4-H food curriculum member manuals dated 1947. He knows I enjoy looking at historical food- and cooking-related information. I carefully examined the fragile sheets of paper that probably were typed using a manual typewriter and copied with carbon paper. As I paged through the curriculum for “4-H girls,” I became a little nostalgic reading the recipes. By the way, presently, food projects are not only for girls; boys enjoy food projects too. In the years right after World War II, girls engaged in this food curriculum were advised to drink six glasses of water, wash their hands before meals, and eat three meals a day with no sweets between meals “except at a party.” They were to strive to miss no days from school because of illness. 7KDW·VVWLOOJRRGDGYLFH I was a little amused by hygiene recommendations, considering the vast array of shampoos and soaps available today. 1940s-era young girls were advised to take a warm sponge bath or tub bath twice a week and shampoo their hair twice a month. After viewing this document, I can see why women who took part in these programs as children were VHOIVXIÀFLHQW DV DGXOWV 7KH curriculum taught them how to butcher and pluck chickens and cut them up for dinner. They learned how to cook, bake and preserve foods. Interestingly, the 4-H food guide stated that during World War II, $1.5 million worth of vegetables were spoiled due to improper canning. When , UDQ WKH ÀJXUH LQ DQ RQOLQH LQÁDWLRQ FDOFXODWRU WKH YDOXH of the wasted food would be more than $25 million in toGD\·VGROODUV Yes, proper food preservation can save money and your life, too. Much of the canning research was done during the 1940s. Participants in the 1947 4-H food curriculum were taught the principles of pressure canning, which allows the temperature in the center of jars to reach 240 F. This temperature inactivates the deadly bacteria that can produce the botulism toxin in the right environment. Botulism is potentially fatal. I was happy to note that even in 1947, oven canning was not considered safe. By the way, if anyone shares guidelines to can food in the oven with you today, let them know the National Center for Home Food Preservation considers this a dangerous practice. Dry heat from your oven does not penetrate jars VXIÀFLHQWO\WRKHDWWKHIRRGWR safe temperatures. Further, the 4-H guide cautioned that oven canning might result in “jars exploding, WKHRYHQGRRUPD\Á\RIIRUD person may be injured from flying glass.” Yes, in 1947, they had a good handle on the dangers of oven canning. A couple of the 4-H recipes included eggs that were not fully cooked. Now we would recommend using pasteurized (heat-treated) eggs in their place. Lard was used in the pie crusts instead of other types of IDW/DUGVWLOOPDNHVWKHÁDNLHVW pie crusts, by the way. ,QWKHVUHÀQHGÁRXU was used in nearly all the EUHDGFRRNLHDQGPXIÀQUHFLpes. As we have learned more DERXW WKH KHDOWK EHQHÀWV RI whole-grain ingredients, such DVZKROHZKHDWÁRXUDQGRDWmeal, our emphasis in nutrition has been to make at least half of your grains whole grains.
