Standing corn
row program
helps reduce
winter road
closures, saves
state money
Strategically placed rows of
corn and a lot of teamwork are
helping keep more rural roads
open in central and southwestern
Minnesota this winter by reducing the amount of snow blowing
onto roads that are prone to drifting shut, according to the Minnesota
Department
of
Transportation.
The standing corn rows are
part of a MnDOT program
started about 15 years ago that
pays farmers to leave corn stalks
up in the winter. The corn rows
break the winds force, causing
the snow to collect around the
corn rows instead of drifting
onto the roads. The rows improve driver visibility, road surface conditions and lower costs
of road maintenance.
Under the MnDOT agreement, farmers leave a minimum
of six rows of corn in the field in
a snow trap area. They get reimbursed using a formula based on
yield, production, costs, inconvenience factors and price of
corn.
The program returns $14 in
savings for plowing, equipment
use and labor for every dollar invested.
Research conducted by
MnDOT, the University of Minnesota Extension Service and
the Center for Transportation
Studies shows standing corn
rows reduced the severity of injuries on curves by 40 percent.
Landowners who want more
information about the standing
corn row program can contact
their local MnDOT district office; contact information can be
found at www.mndot.gov. Additional information about the program
is

Bleat
by Harold Brutlag
I usually dont have enough room in this column each week and
that was the case about our North Dakota pheasant hunt last week.
Under unusual things, Id say waking up to a chicken rooster crowing happened each day at the Ken Muller residence was one of them.
They have a flock of Rhode Island Reds laying eggs for their breakfasts and one rooster which is an early riser. We also heard crowing
from another rooster in White Earth which made it sound like a
crowing contest just before the sun was rising. Another picture
etched in my mind were the multi-colored, unobstructed sunsets that
signalled the end of each day. Some of the buildings in abandoned
farm yards have disappeared, but most still have old machinery in
them. One had a horse drawn plow which looked pretty much intact
and would make an attractive lawn ornament for anyone who likes
that sort of thing. The down side, its about 12 hours drive from here.
Another benefit of the trip was the ice cream pail of peanut butter
cookies Janis sent with me which were enjoyed by each of us. . .
Another group of hunters from Maple Lake, Tom, Kip, Joe, and Billy
Blizil, Dale and Denny Decker and Todd Malachek, hunted in the
Heron area for four days and came back with 60 birds. Tom said they
hunted both private property and public land, some of which were
cattails. He said the temps reached 83 degrees on their fourth day, a
Saturday, and that took a toll on the dogs as well as the hunters. Fortunately they were hunting near a river which was great for the dogs,
but even at that they carried water with them. Tom said some of the
group will make a return trip to South Dakota later in the season to
utilize South Dakotas split license.
Local hunting for me hasnt produced any birds, but plenty of exercise. I did a solo hunt Saturday afternoon with plans to hunt west
of Litchfield. There was lots of corn still standing in the spots I have
hunted over the years and continued to head west looking for something better. I zeroed in on a Walk-In plot south of Atwater that had
the three ingredients pheasants need, food, water and shelter. I turned
Vanna loose and she responded with points or flushes on three hens
and one rooster when we walked the perimeter of the CRP. The rooster flushed well ahead of us and out of range for the 20 ga. single
shot we were carrying.
Sunday afternoon I teamed up with three generations of Hennens,
Daryl, his son, Bradley, and grandson, Evan, who was toting a 410
ga. pump. We hunted west of Willmar in an area none of us had set
foot on before. We found pheasants in each of the spots we hunted,
but none made it into any of the game pouches. Brad had the most
shooting with his son, Evan, keeping count at 12. He lost one in
standing corn when a group of four birds flushed out of the corn.
Ask a
Trooper
by Sgt. Jesse Grabow
Question: Is there an age requirement for a driver of a farm
tractor? Do they need to be age
15 and have a farm permit? It is
the busy fall harvest season and
a person sees lots of farm implements on the roadways. Yester-
day we were on a county road

and came up behind a tractor.
This was not a small tractor, I
would say it would be a mid-size
tractor now days. As we approached I said to my husband
that is a very short driver ahead

Daryl had one opportunity later, but he said the window was narrow
between some trees and standing corn. He declined to shoot a second
time because the bird was over the corn. Neither Evan nor yours
truly got any shooting, but we enjoyed watching the dogs, Bella and
Vanna, work. Dogs cant read and at days end Vanna strayed across
the road into some private property, grass and lowland, following a
scent. I was tempted to trespass, but that wouldnt have been a good
lesson for Evan, so I held my ground. Vanna stayed on the scent until
a rooster flushed well out of range, serenading us all the way into
the standing corn. A second rooster jumped, but apparently had a
broken wing and couldnt fly. Vanna got on that ones scent, but didnt catch it in the grass, following it to the corn before I called her
back. She was reluctant to quit, but I didnt think her chances were
very good in the corn and the electronic collar convinced her.
All in all, we must have flushed or seen 12-15 birds which impressed us. The ratio of hens to roosters was good, and if Minnesota
has favorable weather during the nesting seasons for a couple of
years, the numbers should get better. As in past hunts standing corn
is still a problem, but that will get better unless the farmers have to
leave it until spring because of the corns moisture content.

And last but not least, my congratulations to the ML high school
athletic teams, cross-county (3), volleyball and football, for winning
their way into the state tournaments. We wish them well in future
contests and I suspect the Irish gridders will be pumped for their rematch against Caledonia Friday night. Go Irish!
of us. As we got closer we could

tell it was a very young driver.
He could not have been older
than 10 or 11 years old. He was
not going slow either. I will say
he did keep checking his mirrors
and looking behind him for approaching vehicles. We were
both concerned about such a
young driver with no adult driving such a unit and going at a
fairly high rate of speed. It was
tempting to follow the tractor to
the farm site and ask to speak
with the parents about safety.
However, that could have led to
an unpleasant conversation and
could have created another story.
Thanks for the articles, keep up
the good work and be safe.
Answer: There is no age requirement for driving a farm
tractor. There also are no state
vehicle driver's license requirements for operating tractors and
other farm implements in Minnesota. However, according to
the University of Minnesota
Extension Service, kids under
16 working OFF of THEIR parents' farm must be certified to
operate farm equipment on the
highway or in the field. Also, remember that even though it may
be legal to allow your 7-year-old
to drive a tractor, allowing this
activity puts the child (and other
drivers on public roadways) in
great danger.
Does this indicate that a child
or even a person with a revoked/suspended/cancelled drivers license can drive a farm
tractor for fun or as a means of
personal transportation? Most
certainly not. Its for temporary
trips needed for agricultural activity or business.
As for your choice not to follow the tractor to the farm site
and having a conversation, I believe that was a wise decision. If
you see something you believe
is unsafe or illegal, it is generally best to be a good witness,
obtain accurate information and
report it to the local authorities.

During 2011-2013, 392 traffic crashes took place on Minnesota roads involving at least
one farm vehicle, resulting in 14
fatalities and 210 injuries. Of the
14 fatalities, nine were farm vehicle riders; of the 210 injuries,
54 were farm vehicle riders. The
biggest factors contributing to
farm equipment/vehicle crashes
are inattention, speeding and unsafe passing. When approaching
farm equipment, motorists
should always slow down and
use extreme caution.

The Family of Anabel Jude
The
Retiree
by Jerry Hoem
We had a family lunch with
Wife's Siblings and Siblings-inlaw during which the topics are
far ranging and unpredictable.
These events take about three
and a half hours and are generally based in a neutral place an
hour away from home. This time
it was Applebee's in Hutch.
Going out of town makes it less
likely that we will be remembered and thrown out if we return.
The topic turned to tractors,
for some reason. My tractor experience is limited to watching.
The Big City provided me with
very little need for tractors. I
used the opportunity to enhance
my base of knowledge, which
will help me not at all in my
daily life as a retiree.
I have actually heard of some
of the brands mentioned. The
ones bantered around included
John Deere, Mahindra, International, New Idea, Ford, Steiger,
Case, Agra, Tom's Twinscome
to think of it, I don't know if
Tom's Twins were a tractor
brand. The only one I've run
across lately was Mahindra, because I saw a sign for them next
door to the place I go for oil
changes. And that's the only
brand our older (!) farmer relative hadn't heard of. Which tractor firm bought out which other
was a topic another non-farmer
knew enough about to be considered our local expert. Nobody
could refute anything he said.
Sister-in-law and I generally
stare at each other with vacant
eyes at such times.
The conversation wandered
off into other brands and vehicles such as Dodge and Cummins, and the women began a
separate conversation about
Tom's Twins, quilts and cooking.
Seems they don't care much

about diesels.
This occasion brought to
mind an earlier occasion celebrating Son's return from
Afghanistan, during which
Grand-daughters found a dance
craze game on the Internet, three
more topics for which my education is sorely limited. I watched
them gyrate incomprehensibly in
front of a little tablet screen and
hoped they wouldn't expect me
to join them. They didn't. Son
joined in, but he'd had little interaction with young co-eds, including his, for seven months,
while he worked twelve hour
days in a compound in Kabul,
making intelligence reports. He
needed that activity for a change.
Neither of my grandpas ever
heard of the internet, Mahindra,
New Idea, Steiger, Case, Agra,
Tom's
Twins,
tablets,
Afghanistan, Applebee's, or Iliana the waitress. They got along
just fine over the years without
taco salads, computers, smart
phones, tractors (although one
grandpa got kicked in the face by
a horse, and Mahindra wouldn't
do that), and mango lemonade.
Neither of them owned a car, but
they had kids to drive for them.
Afterward we went outside
for a Minnesota goodbye, which
generally takes about half an
hour. Since we block the doorway during that time, it is discouraged by the management of
the restaurant, but after all, we
sometimes tip well over five percent, so we're entitled.
Future kids will sit around
and talk about new modes of
transport, exotic foods, and old
people like me. I hope they treat
me kindly. Who knows. Mangoes, Mahindras and Iliana may
still be around.

Alternatives to the High
Cost of Incarceration
The Department of Corrections (DOC), the state agency
which is responsible for prison
administration and the supervision of felons on probation, and
which makes sentencing recommendations to judges, has considered and implemented
alternatives to incarceration
over many years. Those in
prison for a definite term serve
2/3 of the sentence in prison
(encouraging good behavior)
and 1/3 on supervised release, if
they have no disciplinary offenses in prison. Estimates
from DOC staff that the costs of
prison versus supervised release
on an annual basis per inmate
for the 9,929 prison inmates (as
of July 1, 2014) are as follows:
Prison
$31,489 per year, per inmate
(as of July 2013)
Intensive supervised release
(as of January 2014)
Supervised release
(as of January 2014)
On December 2, 2010, MinnPost.com published an article
entitled, Aging inmates, racial
disproportionality, and other
facts about Minnesota prisons,
which states the following:
The number of adult prisoners incarcerated by the Minnesota
Department
of
Corrections has grown by 62
percent since 2000. From January 2009 to January 2010, there
was a 400-prisoner jump - even as the nation saw the first
year-to-year drop in the number
of state prisoners since 1972 for
the same period.
The latest numbers from the
Minnesota Department of Corrections are worth a close look-
- as are the trends.

As the prison population
swells it is also aging. In 2000
there were just 348 state prisoners over the age of 50. Today
that number has just about
tripled to 1,024. The number of
prisoners serving life sentences
has nearly doubled in that same
periodfrom 298 in 2000 to
554 today.
In May 2013, KARE11.com
reported:
[The DOC], like those in
every state across the country, is
looking for a way to deal with
the increased elderly prison
population. Over the last 15
years, the states over 55 years
of age population has increased
289 percent. Between 2007 and
2010, the overall prison population in Minnesota increased .7
percent while the 65 plus population went up 63 percent.
Minnesota corrections officials explain it could be worse.
Wisconsin, which has a comparable overall state population,
has a significantly larger prison
population. Minnesota houses
roughly 9,500 inmates at an annual cost of $395 million. Wisconsin is home to more than
23,000 inmates and the states
annual corrections budget is
around $874 million per year.
In summary, Minnesota
prison populations are both
growing and aging, resulting in
significantly higher costs for
general care and health care for
inmates. Certainly violent and
serious felons must be incarcerated, but the questions must be
answered whether in Minnesota
we can continue to afford to imprison non-violent property offenders.

Business Brief
Strong demand for storage
means business growth for
local storage facility
The community has probably

noticed construction going on at
American Mini Storage in
Maple Lake recently. It seems
theres been a strong demand for
storage the past few years, and
thats exactly why Jim and
Tonya LaTour have been adding
to their storage enterprise. The
LaTours started their storage enterprise in 1996 with one 44-unit
building in Maple Lake. Since
that time, the LaTours have consistently added more buildings
and locations. They now have
two locations in Maple Lake and
another two in Annandale. There
are approximately 450 rental
units ranging in size, giving
clients different options for their

storage needs.
Over the years, the LaTours
have added outdoor RV and boat
storage as well as some indoor
heated units for things like jet
skis. They also have table and
chair rentals, which are very
popular for graduations, anniversaries and other miscellaneous parties.
The LaTours business continues to grow, not only because
of a need for more storage, but
its also growing as a family
business. Jim and Tonyas
daughter, Laura, joined them last
year, helping them handle the office duties for the business.
The Pottery Farm seeks artists, art lovers

Newly established at 46
Birch Ave. S. in downtown
Maple Lake, the Pottery Farm is
looking to provide a local haven
for artists and aficionados alike.
Open since mid-August, the
Pottery Farm consists of a cohesive group of artists, led by local
potter Jess Johanneck, who has
put out the welcome mat for any
more who would care to join
them.
Johanneck, offering pottery
as well as lessons and classes for
individuals and groups, shares
space with Jocelyn Greuel, who
specializes in jewelry, woodworking, metalworking and
fiber art; Vicky Ernst, who of-
fers handmade pottery; Vicki Johanneck, providing vintage and

antique items, paintings and
painting classes; and Brooke
and Dennis Strassburg, specializing in hand-dyed fabric and
photography, respectively.
Pottery lessons are available
by appointment to individuals or
groups, at an introductory special of three lessons for $59.
The Pottery Farms first
available classes for acrylic
painting on canvas will be November 6, 6-9 p.m., and can accommodate as many as 18
people. Participants will be able
to take their finished paintings
home that night. And before too
long, classes in jewelry, fiber

art, knitting, crocheting and yarn
spinning will also be offered.
And, of course, in the gallery
area, there is art for sale.
Presently, the Pottery Farm is
open every Saturday, 10 a.m.- 4
p.m., and will also be open
every
Thursday
between
Thanksgiving and Christmas.
The artists also plan to offer
monthly event sales, as well as
during Trick-or-Treat and
Christmas in Maple Lake
events. The first was Saturday,
October 25, from 10 a.m.-9 p.m.
Were always looking for
more artists, Johanneck said.
The more, the merrier!
A potters studio is available

for rent, and any artists in need
of studio space or wishing to
sell their work are invited to
contact Johanneck at 612-2986372
or
jess@thepotteryfarm.com.
Were open to all categories
of art, including refurbishing
and repurposing anything you
make with your hands, Johanneck said. Were very excited
about it, very hopeful that this
will be a great place for art,
gifts, and classes, right here in
the community.

Media Day provides updates on services

by Harold Brutlag
Correspondent
Members of the County print

and electronic news medias
were guests at the Wright
County Law Enforcement Center Oct. 30 in Buffalo for a
Media Day.
Wright County Sheriff Joe
Hagerty commented about their
new facility noting they have a
great staff and enjoy showing off
the facility which includes a 200
bed jail. He said they are near
capacity and presently are housing 60 inmates from adjoining
counties for which the county is
paid $55.00 per person.
Members of the Sheriff Command staff, which included
Capt. Todd Hoffman, introduced
themselves and explained what
their jobs are and how they help
keeping the communication

lines open. They used recent situations as illustrations, like the
Oct. 22 drug bust in Maple Lake
which included four adults and
two children and their deplorable living conditions; and
the Aug. 26 Christopher Rossing
missing person case, Howard
Lake, which has since become a
murder investigation,
Capt. Hoffman alluded to the
internets social media and how
that has become a tool which
they use in their investigations.
He talked about the increased
use of drugs in the county noting
two overdoses but no deaths.
Heroin is third on the list of
drugs prominently used in the
county he said, and the one
found in Maple Lake Oct. 22,
25C-NBOME, is manufactured
in China and sells for $5.25 a hit.

Hoffman said there will be a
Know the Truth Drug Seminar
Jan. 22, at the Buffalo High
School Pac Center beginning at
7:00 p.m. Wright County Sheriffs Dept. Lt. Sean Deringer
said the seminar will include
local law and state enforcement
people. He termed the seminar
as having a cool program.
New record management
computer programs are part of
the departments updates which
will be operational June 2016
and will provide faster and better
services to the media and public.
In contrast Sheriff Hagerty told
how the deputies hand delivered
the weekly Sheriffs Report back
when he was a deputy under
Sheriff Darrell Wolff and patrolling Maple Lake city.

County to compile county ordinances

by John Holler
Correspondent
Wright County isnt capable

of passing laws, but when it
wants to have a jurisdictional authority over issues within the
county, it passes an ordinance to
have authority over a specific
issue. The problem is that too
many of the ordinances arent
uniformly enforced because they
are often implemented by a specific department.
At the Oct. 28 meeting of the
Wright County Board of Com-
missioners, Assistant County Attorney Greg Kryzer came before

the board to request that the
county hire American Legal
Publishing Corporation to help
collect and codify all county ordinances into a single database
to make public access of the different ordinances easier by having them all in one location.
The idea is to get all of the
county ordinances combined
into one location so it will make
it easier for staff or members of
the public to access the ordi-
nances theyre searching for,

Kryzer said. There are currently a number of ordinances
that are enforced by various departments, but theyre currently
being handling individually by
departments.
There are several different
county entities that are enforced
by individual departments. Several ordinances are enacted by
the county board, but there are
also ordinances for planning and
zoning, human services, the
parks
department,
the
auditor/treasurer, sheriffs department and county attorneys

office.
The rationale for combining
all of the ordinances into a single
database is so they can be collected and presented on the
countys website for residents
who need to know the different
specifics of what is allowed and
prohibited under the ordinances
to be easily accessible.

Heres How It Works:

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into
nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must
fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once
in each row, column, and box. You can figure out the order in
which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already
provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier
it gets to solve the puzzle!

50th Class Reunion
DNR question of the week

Q: Ive heard that fall is a
good time to remove buckthorn
on my land. Whats the best way
to control buckthorn?
A: There are two types of invasive buckthorn in Minnesota.
Common buckthorn is easily
found in late fall when many native shrubs and trees have lost
their leaves. Common buckthorn
will often have green leaves
through November. Glossy buckthorn does not stay green as late
as common buckthorn. Use caution as many native trees look
similar to buckthorn, and some
native trees hold their leaves into

the winter.
Buckthorn plants 2 inches in
diameter or larger can be controlled by cutting the stem at the
soil surface. Cutting can be done
effectively with hand tools, chain
saws or brush cutters. Stumps
should be treated immediately
after cutting with an herbicide
containing
triclopyr
or
glyphosate to prevent re-sprouting. An alternative if only cutting
a few stumps is to cover them
with a tin can or black plastic to
prevent re-sprouting.

Irish football heads to state

by Brenda Erdahl
Sports Writer
An
enthusiastic
crowd
cheered the Maple Lake Irish on
to a Section 4-2A final round victory at St. Johns Universitys
football stadium Saturday, Nov.
1, and a trip to the state football
tournament in Rochester Friday,
Nov. 7.
The No. 1 seed Irish bulldozed their way to a 42-0 victory
over No. 2 seed Howard LakeWaverly-Winsted under cold, but
clear skies.
Take this in, because not
many guys get to go to state,
Head Coach Tim Knudsen advised his team at a post game
meeting on the field after trophies
had been handed out and fans
were starting to wander away.
The Irish capitalized on Laker
mistakes to take a 22-0 lead by
the end of the first half, Saturday.
The scoring frenzy started
with a 39-yard Maple Lake drive
that culminated in a 12-yard
touch down pass to Chase Olson
with a little more than four minutes left in the first quarter. Dusty
Strub then ran the ball for a twopoint conversion to make the
score 8-0.
With a little over one minute
left in the first quarter, the Lakers
made a push for the end zone, but
a yellow flag came out, foiling
their attempt. They fumbled the
next play and Maple Lake recovered to go into the second quarter
in possession of the ball.
The Irish continued their scoring ways early in the second
quarter with an 84-yard carry by
Strub, putting the home team in
position to score.
Cal Redemske then ran it in
for the touch down and Charlie
Stejskal kicked the extra point to
make the score 15-0.
The Irish missed another
chance to score after an incom-
plete pass to Strub in the end

zone then failed to get a first
down. It was the Lakers turn to
carry the ball, but they fumbled
with 1:24 left in the second quarter and the Irish recovered it. That
led to a 65-yard touch down run
by Strub. Stejskal kicked the
extra point to make it 22-0 and
thats how the half ended.
The Lakers had possession to
start the second half, but not for
long. Alex Toedter sacked the
Laker quarterback for a loss on
the play and soon after the ball
was turned over to the Irish. With
about 5:52 left in the third quarter, Strub made a 14-yard touch
down run to boost Maple Lakes
lead to 28-0. Stejskals kick for
the extra point was off the mark
for the first time all day.
The Lakers started down the
field, but McRae Haney ended
their brief drive with an interception to turn the ball back over to
the Irish.
Strub was good for a first
down, then Redemske carried the
ball 43 yards to bring Maple
Lake within scoring distance. Redemske then finished the job with
a 6-yard touchdown run. This
time, Stejskals extra point was
good, making the score 35-0.
Maple Lakes Damian Kaley
assisted with an interception with
about 2 1/2 minutes left in the
third quarter that lead to a oneyard touchdown run by Redemske. Stejskals extra point
made the score 42-0 and thats
where it stayed.
We knew it would be a good
game, Knudsen said, giving
credit to the Irishs strong offensive line and a skilled defense.
The win added yet another
milestone to an impressive history for the Maple Lake program,
including three previous visits to
the state tournament.
Knudsen said this seasons 10-
1 record is the best he has seen in

his 11 years with the program.
We have had nine wins before, but 10 wins this year is the
most Ive seen, he said.
The Irish will travel to
Rochester on Friday, Nov. 7,
where they will face Caledonia at
7 p.m. at Rochester Community
and Technical College. If they
win, they will go on to the second
round of the tournament on Saturday, Nov. 15, in Eden Prairie.
Caledonia is a team the Irish
have seen before at state.
Were going to have to clean
up our mistakes, because now
were going to play a very good
team, Knudsen told his players,
Saturday, after the game. They
are going to try to intimidate you,
but we are going to go there and
play the game of football the way
we know how.

Maple Lake has good showing

at state cross country meet

Maple Lake was well represented, Saturday, Nov. 1, at the

State Cross Country Meet in St.
Olaf.
Andrew Schonnesen, a senior, improved upon his performance last year at state by nearly
45 seconds and 71 places. He
crossed the finish line Saturday
in 55th place with a time of
17:07. Last year he came in
111th.
It wasnt his best time, but
by every definition, he had a
good race, Head Coach Ben
Youngs said.
Sommer Carlson, a junior at
Maple Lake, took on the hilly St.
Olaf course in the Class A girls
race and finished 40th overall in
15:48. Teammate, Halle Geyen,
a sophomore, finished 94th in
16:19.
Both girls had slower times
and a lower place than last year,
so there was some disappointment, Youngs said, but for the

most part I think they had a fun
experience.
Everything went right for the
Irish runners last year, leading to
top 25 finishes for both girls and
all-state honors. The field was
stronger this year, Youngs said.
The top Class A racer, Emily
Donnay, from Eden ValleyWatkins-Kimball, posted a time
of 14:27.
Team-wise, Trinity School at
River Edge bested Annandale 87
to 55 for the championship, and
the Cardinals, who claimed the
top title last year, had to settle
for second. Fairmount was third
with 117 points.
On the boys side, Mora won
first-place honors with 104
points; Martin County West was
second with 108, and GlencoeSilver Lake finished third with
117 points.
Mora and G-SL were the top
dogs at Maple Lakes section

race two weeks ago that qualified them for state.
You could say our section
was very well represented at
state, Youngs said.
The three Maple Lake runners left for state on Friday, Oct.
31, after an enthusiastic send-off
from their classmates. Kindergarten through 12th grade students lined the halls in both
schools that afternoon to give
high-fives to the athletes as they
made their way to the bus that
would take them down to St.
Olaf.
From staying at the hotel to
the race itself, I think they all
have a lot of good memories,
Youngs said.
The Maple Lake team will
celebrate its successful season at
its awards banquet on Monday,
Nov. 10, at the high school auditorium.
& Good Luck at State, Irish Athletes!

Reduce your carbon footprint this holiday season

The holiday season is typically one when everything is
done bigger and better. Excess
may run supreme, and for those
who are concerned about how
their actions impact the environment, such excess can clash with
their ideals.
The following are some effects the holidays can have on
the environment and changes
anyone can make to still enjoy
the festivities and help the planet
at the same time.
Trash: From gift wrap to
cards to disposable decorations,
trash has a way of piling up during the holiday season. According to Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach, Americans generate 25 percent more
waste per week between
Thanksgiving and New Year's
Day than during the rest of the
year. This creates an additional
1.2 million tons of trash per
week, or an extra six million
tons throughout the holiday season. Cutting back on trash is one
of the easiest steps a person can
take to reduce his or her environmental impact. Purchase
cards or paper made from recycled, post-consumer content and
printed with nontoxic inks.
Choose postcards that do not

need a separate envelope for
mailing. Use reusable decorations, dinnerware, boxes, and
bags to prevent extra garbage
from ending up in landfills.
Bring your own fabric shopping
bags to use in place of plastic
bags and, when prompted,
choose to have your receipts
emailed instead of printed to
further reduce paper consumption.
Food: Lavish meals are central components of holiday gatherings. Leftover food produces
waste, so purchasing too much
food or selecting products that
were not locally produced can
negatively affect the environment. Shipping food over long

distances requires use of fuel
and other natural resources. In
some
instances,
products
shipped from other countries
may harbor parasites or insects
not native to this country, and
such unwanted guests can prove
harmful to local ecosystems.
To meet the extraordinary
supply demands of the holiday
season, food suppliers may beef
up livestock and produce with
artificial hormones, fertilizers
and pesticides, all of which are
detrimental to the environment.
Shop wisely this time of year
and only buy what you need,

Choose locally grown or organic
foods and in-season produce instead of exotic, imported fare.
Promptly package and freeze
leftovers so they can be enjoyed

Decorating: It's tempting to
purchase ready-made, plastic
imported holiday decorations.
But these objects are not always
the most sustainable options,
and there are plenty of decorative items that have less impact
on the planet. LED holiday
lights, for example, use 90 percent less energy than traditional
incandescent lights and can last
up to 100,000 hours. Only keep

lights on when you're home and

awake to save energy. Instead of
purchasing new ornaments,
make your own or host an ornament swap with friends. Create
your own wreaths and centerpieces from natural materials
found around the yard. Soy candles do not emit unsafe hydrocarbons and produce less soot
than paraffin wax candles.
Travel: Travel is a large
component of the holidays, as
friends and family members
criss-cross the globe to spend
the season together. According
to Green Choices, aviation accounts for 75 percent of the
travel industry's greenhouse gas
emissions, followed by road
transport (32 percent). Look for
the most cost- and eco-effective
method of travel to reduce your
carbon footprint. If you will be
away from home or the office
for long periods of time, remember to set your thermostat to a
lower temperature or program
the vacation setting on your programmable thermostat. You also
can turn down your water
heaters to conserve energy.
It is possible to enjoy the holidays and protect the planet at
the same time. A few easy
changes are all it takes to reduce
your carbon footprint this holiday season.

Irish volleyball earns state berth

by Brenda Erdahl
Sports Writer
The Maple Lake volleyball

team is headed to state after
going 3-0 in section play last
week.
The Irish kicked off their
winning ways against Providence Academy in round two
of the Section 5-2A Tournament, Tuesday, Oct. 28, at
home, claiming the victory in
three games: 27-25, 25-20 and
25-17.
We were prepared for a few
taller hitters, but they really did
a great job in the back row defensively as well as at the net,
Head coach Marty Kiebel said.
I was proud of how our team
responded to the excitement the
other team brought.
As a team the Irish went 89
percent serving with six aces
and 37 digs. Emily Webb went
14 for 17 serving with two
aces, nine kills and seven digs;
Olivia Marquette went 14 for
16 serving with two aces, 19
assists and two digs; Morgan
Scheiber went 10 for 11 serving
with one ace and 7 digs, and Jill
Goelz went 11 for 13 serving
with two kills and four digs.
Linsey Rachel had 18 kills and
12 digs for the game; Jenni
Pomije had 19 assists, and
Amber Klug had 10 kills.
The win advanced the home
team to game three of the tournament where they met DeLaSalle
at
St.
Michael-Albertville.

Overall Record: 25-5
CMC Record: 7-0
Being a rematch from last

years subsection championship in which we won in
five, I knew DeLasalle would
be pumped up to play us,
Kiebel said. They only graduated two seniors off their team
from last year and for sure
made some improvements to
prepare for us.
Despite dropping the first
game, the Irish team was able
to stay focused and settle into
the match. Soon their nerves
were gone and they ended up
having an incredible game at
the net, Kiebel said. They accumulated 16 ace blocks as a
team.
Each of the games we won,
including match point, was
ended with an ace block, he
said.
We run our practices at a
fast pace and play short games
to condition us to handle quick
runs and stay focused during
that crazy race to only 15 in the
fifth set.
I think our preparation in
how we practice gave us an advantage in that final set,
Kiebel said.
The Irish won 3-2 with
scores of 18-25, 25-19, 25-21,
19-25 and 15-11.
As a team they posted a 93
percent serving average with
six aces and 65 digs.
Pomije went 21 for 24 serving with three aces, 14 assists
and six digs; Rachel went 13
for 13 serving with 13 kills and
20 digs; Chloe Callahan went

25 for 25 serving with one ace,
five kills and 13 digs; Webb
went 14 for 15 serving with
two aces, 10 kills and 11 digs,
and Marquette went 15 for 16
serving with 18 assists and
eight digs.
On Saturday, Nov. 1, the
Irish defeated Park Center 3-0
for the championship and a
state tournament berth. Rachel
went 19 for 21 serving with
seven aces, 13 kills and 13 assists; Callahan went 12 for 13
serving with six kills and six
digs; Webb went eight for nine
serving with 11 kills and 15
digs, and Marquette went 15
for 16 serving with two aces,
20 assists and three digs.
Game scores were 25-15,
25-22 and 25-17.
As a team they totaled 89
percent serving with 12 aces
and 51 digs.
The Irish will travel to the
Xcel Energy Center to take on
Concordia Academy on Thursday, Nov. 6, at 5 p.m. Win or
lose, the Irish will play again
on Friday, Nov. 7, at 5 p.m. at
the Excel Energy Center.
Weve played Concordia
twice this year in the same
tournament and played very
close sets with them, Kiebel
said. We will know some
things about them and they will
know some things about us. It
will be a great fourth-seed versus fifth-seed match up.

County Board
continued from page 3
The plan behind it is primarily to make it easier for residents to access the ordinances,
Kryzer said. With the technological advancements that have
been made in terms of accessing
information on-line, it was felt
that if we were to get all of them
in one location at the county
courthouse and on the countys
website, it would not only make
it easier for the public to access
those documents, but would also
save on staff time for those employees who have to search to
find the ordinance.
The cost to the county is
going to be $9,000 for the codification of the ordinance documents.
American
Legal
Publishing Corporation will review all the documents and, in
some cases, be able to remove or
condense the language in some
ordinances that are either outdated or redundant. The hope is
that the project will be completed by next summer.
In other items on the Oct. 28

agenda, the board:
Approved a traffic signal
agreement on Hwy. 25 and Co.
Rd. 106 just outside the city limits of Monticello. The Minnesota
Department of Transportation is
going to construct turn lanes and
install a traffic signal at the intersection in 2015.
Set the general election canvassing board for 2:30 p.m.
Thursday, Nov. 13. Commissioners Charlie Borrell and Pat
Sawatzke will represent the
county board on the canvassing
board.
Announced that the county
will be switching its computer
software programs from Microsoft Office to Office 365 in
2017. The county has already
purchased the Microsoft 2013 licenses for its computer system,
so switching now wouldnt
make sense. Additionally, the
process of converting all computers and the countys e-mail
system will take time and preparation, so the matter will be addressed down the line with a
thought out plan in place before
the switchover is made.
Set a public hearing to discuss some changes to the
countys fees-for-service schedule for 9:30 a.m. at the Dec. 2
board meeting. The sheriffs department has requested that a
pair of fees for service be increased and other department
heads have been asked that, if
they have any fee change requests, to submit them prior to
the meeting so they can be included on the 2015 schedule.
Authorized an addendum to
a sheriffs department contract
for mobile in-squad car printers
that create traffic tickets. The
sheriffs department opted to
switch printer providers and
there will be no change in the
cost from the original contract.
The printers will be placed in 75
squad cars.
Winter Hazard Awareness Week

November 10-14
Are You Ready For Winter?
Winter in Minnesota can be described in many ways, but unpredictable isnt one of them.
At some point, it will snow
and temperatures will drop
below zero. There will be ice on
the roads. High winds will raise
the risk of being outdoors from
hazardous to life-threatening.
The best way to avoid the
hazards is to stay warm and
cozy indoors, but its tough to
stay cooped up for months
and even staying indoors for
long periods carries risks. Problems can arise with indoor air,
and fire risks increase dramatically in the winter.
Are you ready for it? Do you
know how to stay warm, safe
and happy all winter? Well, fear
not. Surviving, even enjoying,
the winter season is not as hard

as it looks to the uninitiated.
To help Minnesota residents
minimize risks and mitigate the
hazards of winter, the Minnesota Department of Public
Safety in collaboration with
the National Weather Service
and other state, federal and nonprofit agencies sponsors
Winter Hazard Awareness
Week each fall to educate, inform, remind and reinforce the
behaviors that lead to a warm,
safe and enjoyable winter season.
The event includes a media
campaign, literature and other
informational materials. The
week-long educational campaign targets specific information each day that can be used in
conjunction
with
school,
Acknowledged the retirement of sheriffs deputy Jan

Rivers, who spent 23 years
working in the sheriffs department.
Approved the September
revenue-expenditure guidelines.
Auditor/Treasurer Bob Hiivala
noted that the line items for fees
for service in the planning and
zoning department and the sheriffs department for boarding of
prisoners is well above the projected figures.
Approved contacting Climate Air Inc. concerning a plan
to insulate the roof of the Public
Works Building. There have

been issues with the roof almost
since the time it was constructed, ranging from leaks
when there is rain or melting
snow to high temperatures and
humidity in the summer and a
significant indoor temperature
drop in the winter due to a lack
of air flow and the lack of insulation in the building.
Authorized removing the
advance warning systems at the
intersections of CSAHs 8 and
35, CSAHs 6 and 35 and CSAH
9 and Co. Rd. 107. The systems
have proved to be extremely

Science Express is
a super success
By Brenda Erdahl
Correspondent
Students at Maple Lake Elementary had the chance to get

out of the class room and into
the laboratory last week when
St. Cloud States Science Express came to town.
The 53-foot long mobile
laboratory could be seen
parked in the school parking
lot Monday, Oct. 27, through
Thursday, Oct. 30. Throughout
those four days, first through
sixth grade students had the
chance to try their hand at the
types of experiments real scientists perform, using the same
tools the professionals use.
It was a really enjoyable
experience for the kids,
Maple
Lake
Elementary
School Principal Kris Harlan
said. I heard a lot of positive
comments.
Students had 30 to 40 minutes in the lab with Dr. Bruce
Jacobson, director of bioscience outreach for SCSU,
who introduced them to new
gadgets like oscilloscopes and
taught them the basics of fingerprint forensics.
First graders learned about
centrifuge and vortex and third
graders learned how to use an
oscilloscope to see and identify
sound waves.
The students were exposed
to a lot of different subjects,
but they were all aligned to the
(state) science standards, Harlan said.
According to an SCSU website, the Science Express was

created to bridge a gap between the tools professional
scientists use and what is available in the classroom.
Medtronic donated the fully
loaded trailer in 2009. That fall
it was launched with the goal
of bringing hands-on experiences in science, technology,
engineering and math to students of all grades throughout
Central Minnesota.
In its first four years, the
mobile laboratory served over
60,000 students at more than
1,200 schools.
It visits approximately 30
schools per year and spends
about one week at each campus.
Harlan was instrumental in
bringing the Science Express
to Maple Lake after getting a
tip that it had been in the
neighborhood at another
nearby school. It was perfect
timing since elementary staff
were planning on boosting
their science program this year
with engineering curriculum.
We were looking at the science standards last year and realized we were short some
activities in the engineering
area, Harlan said. So we purchased some engineering units
and this year we are really
going to focus on science activities for kids.
Every year the school staff
pick a subject to emphasize.
One year it was reading, and

another year it was math. This
year it is science.
In addition to the Science
Express, the school will be
hosting a family event in February called Be creative, be an
engineer.
Representatives from the
Science Museum of Minnesota
will be there to give a 30minute presentation followed
by an hour of hands-on engineering related activities families can participate in together.
The great thing about the
Science Express is its a free
educational experience that
takes kids out of the classroom
and into the science lab, Harlan said.

Jennifer
DesMarais-Hollands 6th grade class writes
about why they appreciate American soldiers.
By Lexi Hanson
I appreciate American soldiers because they fight for us.
They are brave and their courage
makes them do things I cant
imagine doing myself. All of
their hard work is for us. With
the help of these soldiers we
have freedom, and thats all a
person could ask for. These
brave men and women help our
country. If it werent for them we
wouldnt have a lot of things we
have now.
Soldiers leave their families
for us. The families of these soldiers are brave too. They dont
get to see that family member for
periods ranging from months to
sometimes years. You could say
these families have their own
kind of braveness by having to
live without having them there.
Another reason I appreciate
them is because they ask for
nothing in return, only for us to
be proud of them and our country. Some people may hate them
for what they do but they still
serve without being self-centered
or selfish. If they were they
wouldnt be doing what they do
for us.
Not all people in the armed
forces are soldiers. Some are
nurses who help save lives that
are put in danger and get
wounded or sick during training

or battle. Without these nurses
many more soldiers would die.
Another example is my brother
Aaron, who is an electricians
mate for the Navy. He watches
generators, switchboards, and
other electrical equipment. Without him, his mates, and people
like him the equipment wouldnt
have an operator or someone to
fix it.
A key to being a good soldier
is their patriotism. They love
their country and sacrifice their
safety to ensure ours. They do
this because of their love for
their homeland.
Soldiers will give up everything to protect us. They are normal people just like us protecting
our freedom, and giving us
safety. They are stupendous for
giving us this, and they are honored because they deserve it.
These soldiers are true patriots.

By Madeline Gindele
I appreciate American Soldiers because they fight for our
freedom. In order to fight they
have to leave their families and
give up their time. They put their
lives on hold. Soldiers believe in
our country and care for its people. They know that there is
value in our freedom and it is
something worth fighting for.
Soldiers dont ask for much in
return. They deserve our appreciation and thanks and to do this
we need to support the soldiers

and their families. We would not
have our freedom if it werent
for them. They want us to be
proud of what they accomplish
and be proud of the country they
fight for.
The American flag means a
lot to our soldiers and they want
it to be important to us as well.
The American Flag represents
our countrys freedom and
should be treated reverently.
Some ways to do this is by making sure it does not touch the
ground and like many people do,
have lights on it night so it can
always be seen. We also show respect to our soldiers by lowering
the flag half-staff whenever a
soldier dies.
Soldiers are very brave. They
show their bravery by being in
the Armed Forces. They go to
war knowing that they may be in
danger. Soldiers leave everything behind to fight for our
country. By doing that they
could be in a harmful situation.
They have to fight against people
that want to hurt them. They
could get hurt or possibly die for
our country and its freedom.
The soldiers families are
very brave as well. The families
have to sacrifice by living without their loved ones for sometimes long periods of time. This
time for them can be very stressful. It is stressful because their
loved ones could die or get injured. These families share the
same beliefs and love for our
country and need to know we
support them no matter what
happens.
Soldiers will continue fighting to keep our countrys safety
and I will continue to be grateful
for all they do.

the past decade, are facing the

same budgetary challenges as
the courts, law enforcement, and
the prison system. These programs involve substantial personnel time for supervision of
offenders.
Jail and prison are expensive
and justifiably so. But, some
citizens feel, for example, that
every DWI offender (unless its
them or a family member)
should go to jail and that every
convicted felon should go to
prison. But that is not realistic in
terms of the punishment fitting
the crime, nor in the budgetary
times in which we live. Alternatives to incarceration, however politically unpalatable to
some citizens, must be considered. Substantial cost savings
may be realized if non-violent
offenders are provided with
punishment and treatment instead of just incarceration.

Its in your court

Several years ago, Washington County started an Offender
Recovery Program, which is
similar to a drug court. A team
of people meets with the offender weekly or biweekly.
Every two months the offender
and team come to court. The
team includes volunteers from
Social Services and probation
agents. The goal is getting the
offender back to a productive
life. It is not an easy pass because the alternatives are incarceration, fines, and conditions
of probation. There is intense
supervision and the program
holds the offenders accountable.
There is always the threat of jail
time if the offender does not
successfully complete each
phase of the program.
Another sentencing alternative is staggered sentencing, a
program which is the brainchild
of Judge James Dehn of Isanti
County District Court, which
has been adopted around the nation.
Simply put, staggered
sentencing divides a standard
jail sentence into thirds or segments, as the court extends the

executed jail segments out over
a couple years rather than all of
it up front. Only the first segment is served up front. If the
offender can prove that they are
actively sober, involved in a
structured sobriety group, have
no other alcohol/drug related
crimes, and have the support of
their probation officer they may
bring a motion before the same
sentencing judge and have the
next segment suspended. The
burden of persuasion rests
solely on the offender to convince the sentencing judge they
are staying sober. If the offender re-offends by getting a
new DWI at any time during
their probation period all remaining time over the offenders head is executed by the
court, including prison for
felony DWIs.
Technology has provided the
means for both confinement of
offenders at home as well as
protection of victims and the
public. Electronic home monitoring (EHM) confines an offender to their home with a
device which reports to a monitoring center if they leave their
home. Some of these offenders
are granted work release so they
can continue to be employed
and support their families.
EHM can also include alcohol
monitoring to insure that the offender does not continue to consume alcohol. The offender
blows into the device three
times daily and if there is alcohol in their system, the device
contacts the monitoring center
and probation agents arrest the
offender.
GPS units may be used to
monitor the movements of domestic assault offenders so that
if they go within a prohibited
zone of protection for the victim, probation agents will cause
the offender to be arrested for a
probation violation.
Drug courts and intensive supervision programs are costly
