the Festival of Lights at Oak Park. This annual event
was not held in 2014 and Beverly worked successfully
to bring it back this year. She was assisted by her sister Patsy who moved back to Dayton this past summer,
and by her daughter. There was also one large volunteer
Sunday when community residents came together at Oak
Park to make it happen again after extensive vandalism
destroyed many displays.

Christmas memories
should be shared, cherished. . .

Christmas is only a few weeks away and all of
us have precious Christmas memories. Many of us recall
Christmas memories during our upbringing.

Our family attended St. Johns Lutheran Church
in Ladysmith, Wisconsin. It was a Missouri Synod church
and my father would never attend any other church in his
lifetime.

When I was in the sixth grade I remember reciting John 3:16 as my part in the Christmas program at
our church. And then there was the singing of all those
beautiful Christmas carols in church, like Hark the Herald
Angels Sing and O Come All Ye Faithful.

My Dad survived World War II and if that
hadnt been the case I wouldnt have been born. Early
in my childhood my parents didnt have much money,
but the spirit of Christmas was strong. One year during
this period my Dad made toys in his workshop for his
three boys. Looking back, that is a cherished Christmas
memory indeed.

Our church was located across from the creamery in Ladysmith. Originally it had a been a German
speaking Lutheran church. I vividly remember that after the Christmas Eve service, or perhaps it was after
the Christmas program at church, each child received a
brown paper bag. Inside that bag was a popcorn ball, an
apple or orange (or both),and course some candy. We
really treasured receiving this Christmas gift at church.

The original St. Johns Lutheran Church was
relatively small but it had very high ceilings. There were
two giant spruce trees, one on each side of the alter and
it was quite a task to decorate these gigantic trees before
Christmas.

We would always get together at my grandparents home (Dads parents) during the Christmas holidays. All my aunts and uncles would be there with their
families. Their house on their dairy farm was rather
Spartan, but it did feature a fireplace and there would be
a nice fire lit for this get-together.

The toilet was an outdoor biffy with the Montgomery Ward catalog. Almost everyone had indoor
plumbing but my grandparents were among the people
who were the last to get this improvement.

Its good to share our Christmas memories with
our families and friends. And we must always remember
that we celebrate this season because Jesus was born in
Bethlehem.

Christmas program at
Stratford Lutheran Church
Join the journey...

Mark your calendar for Sunday, December 13
at 4:30 pm. The 2nd Annual Progressive Community
Christmas Program will begin at the Stratford Lutheran
Church. Come inside the Fellowship Hall to meet Mary,
Elizabeth, Joseph, and the angel-Gabriel, and take a new
look at the Announcement of this amazing event we
observe as Christmas. As they finish, the shepherds will
be out in the field, and we will journey with them to Bethlehem (Calvary United Methodist Church).

Meet the Innkeeper and discover how Joseph
and Mary ended up in a stable for the birth of baby Jesus,
the King of Kings. Music, the traveling shepherds, and
other actors will tell the story of The Greatest Wonder.

From there everyone will move on to the First
Baptist Church (Hwy 175 E) to become acquainted with
the Wise men from afar, their gifts for Jesus, and The
Affirmation.

Music, costuming, multigenerational involvement, and observer participation is planned. Feel free
to walk or ride, and observe from your car. Again, mark
your calendar for December 13, and bring your family
and friends for a new look at the Christmas story. Coffee,
punch, and cookies, with time for fellowship will follow.
This is a free celebration of Gods Special Gift to each
of us.

Farmers working on water

quality; nitrate levels high
Boone River monitored. . .

Water quality samples obtained this year by Agricultures Clean Water Alliances (ACWA) in the Raccoon and Boone River watersheds reaffirm the need for
continuous improvement and greater collaboration.

Water monitoring is the cornerstone of our organization, because we firmly believe you must know
where you are in order to measure progress, said Harry
Ahrenholtz, ACWA chairman. Since 1999, we have
invested $1.5 million in monitoring as part of our commitment to improving water quality. This years data reaffirms our focus and demonstrates the challenges that
often arise when working with Mother Nature.

Funding provided by ACWA resulted in the collection of 2,500 water samples from 75 sites. The results
are not surprising, considering weather patterns during
the past decade.

Enjoy a hot meal, hear detailed information about the proposed
merger and voting procedures and ask questions. Leadership from
both cooperatives will lead the meetings, along with
board members.
In addition, a representative from our audit firm will be on hand
so member-owners can cast their ballots at the meetings. Please

More than half of
the 45 Raccoon River water monitoring sites reported their highest average nitrate levels in ten years of
data collection. The Boone
River also experienced
high nitrate concentrations
across 30 sample sites.

We
acknowledge that water quality across the state needs
to improve, said Roger
Wolf, ACWA executive
director. Many factors
influence water quality,
but weather is a particular
driving force.

Experts have long
recognized the large impact weather has on nitrate
loss from farm fields. Fluctuation between wet and
dry weather patterns during the last several years
resulted in large shifts in
water movement allowing
nitrate that has moved below the root zone and accumulated in dry times to
be rapidly transported during wet periods.

Farmers
are
working to improve water
quality through three other
WQI projects. ACWA retailer and associate members are involved in the
Headwaters of the North
Raccoon River, the Boone
River Watershed Nutrient
Management Initiative and
the Riverside Stormwater
Wetlands in Webster City,
which is an urban WQI
project.

We are excited
to see the positive progress
these partners can achieve
by working together,
Ahrenholtz said. For our
part, ACWA members will
help farmers identify and
implement practices beneficial to the environment
and water quality. Our
water monitoring program
will be a valuable tool for
documenting future successes.

Thanks for many blessings...

The fall weather in Iowa had been especially
nice unseasonably warm and sunshiny. It was almost
hard this year on Veterans Day for some of us old timers
to recall the big Armistice Day blizzard of 1940 when
many of the country kids in the Boxholm School had
to stay in town. Fortunately the town folk opened their
homes and all were safely tucked in and no one had
to stay at the school building. Two of my neighbor girls
and I stayed at ones grandmothers (and maiden aunts)
home and I am still glad that it was only ONE night; not
a kid oriented home.

I was in 7th grade and the others were younger.
So this year as predicted winter hit with a BANG! The
snow came down and down and down and piled higher
and higher. Des Moines only received about half as much
as the areas covered by the NEWS and REVIEW.

On Sunday afternoon I drove by the back side of
the Church Hill across the street from my building and
the sledders had almost eradicated the white covering by
their many trips. There was a huge snowball near the bottom on one side and I surmised that several had worked
on that snowball up and down the hill thus almost eliminating that sections snow covering. But within a couple
days hardly a trace of white remained, even in protected
places.

Then came the beginning of Thanksgiving
week, still warmer than usual for this season in Iowa
and most were looking forward to a great Thanksgiving
day/weekend with family and friends eating, shopping,
watching football, eating, visiting, gadding about, eating
---- Wednesday was reasonably nice though cloudy, allowing a trip to the gas station for a fill up, to the service
place for an oil change, to Hy-Vee for a few forgotten
items and home again, rigity rigity jig. Having been invited to one of my childrens home for Thanksgiving dinner I anxiously awaited the news as we had been hearing
the forecast of a rainy, possibly icy day. If that were to
be the case I would ask to be excused from the invitation
and keep myself company and fed with my plentiful but
not as interesting store of food. I would entertain myself through TV, phone calls, computer games, preparing
Christmas cards I would not sit around having a pity

rainy, penetrating chill of a day and away we went in

a comfortable warm car. Remembering the old song,
Over the river and through the woods Oh, how the
wind does blow! It stings the toes and bites the nose as
over the ground we go, I was glad that sleighs or other
horse driven vehicles were far in our past.

There were eleven of us and you could swear by
looking at the food appearing there should be twice that
many but soon it was ready and we gathered around a
circle, holding hands and gave our thanks for all we had
and the privilege of that assemblage. Why is it when we
take just a little of this and just a little of that plates
suddenly become overflowing? We ate, we talked, we
told stories of times past, heard some good news of a
new family member to be with us for next Thanksgiving
and Christmas and we laughed.

The heavy drizzle continued but it was beginning to get dark and Andy said, Mom, are you ready
to go home? Ill take you. I gladly accepted and was
thankful to be back in my own cozy, warm, safe quarters.
Another Thanksgiving had been granted to me.

Now my prayers would be for the rest of my
scattered family and others who were traveling short or
long distances. I would hope not to hear of any holiday
catastrophes about our state, about our land, and also
hoped that should the white stuff appear, especially near
my old home communities, it wouldnt be of great consequence and that there would be no ice. May all you
readers have had a special day too.

Nearly all corn,

soybeans harvested
in Iowa: Northey
Ahead of schedule. . .

Harvest in Iowa is reaching the final stages with
93 percent of corn and 98 percent of beans now in the
bin, said Bill Northey, Secretary of Agriculture. The
agreeable weather that much of the state saw throughout
the growing season has continued into harvest and has allowed farmers to get the crop out in a timely manner and
in good condition.

The weekly report is also available on the Iowa
Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardships
website at www.IowaAgriculture.gov or on USDAs site
at www.nass.usda.gov/ia. The report summary follows
here:
CROP REPORT

Harvest activities wound down, while fall tillage, tiling, and fertilizer applications continued during the
week ending November 8, 2015, according to the USDA,
National Agricultural Statistics Service. Farmers used the
5.5 days suitable for fieldwork to harvest corn for grain,
harvest soybeans, and haul and spread manure. Reports
of anhydrous application were received, although some
farmers are waiting for cooler weather before applying.

Topsoil moisture levels rated 0 percent very
short, 11 percent short, 83 percent adequate, and 6 percent surplus. Subsoil moisture levels rated 2 percent very
short, 13 percent short, 80 percent adequate, and 5 percent surplus.

Ninety-three percent of the corn crop for grain
has been harvested, 9 days ahead of last year, and 2 days
ahead of the 5-year average. There were reports of corn
piles on the ground at some ethanol plants and local elevators. Ninety-eight percent of the soybean crop has been
harvested, one week ahead of last year.

Grain movement from farm to elevator was
rated 51 percent moderate to heavy. Off-farm grain storage availability was rated 78 percent adequate to surplus.
On-farm grain storage availability was rated 69 percent

Boone County 4-H

adult volunteers
receive honors

The Boone Chamber has been an integral partner with Boone County 4-H for many years. They have
assisted 4-H with recruitment of new members, event
awareness of events and of course the bi-annual omelet
breakfast raising funds for the Outstanding Graduates.

A highlight of the 4-H Awards Day program is
the presentation of the Fran Thompson Memorial Outstanding Leader Award. This years recipient was Cheryl
Tevis-Lingren from Pilot Mound.

Cheryl has been incredibly generous with her
time to the 4-H program as she has served as a club leader to the Bluff Creek Wranglers for 11 years, a Boone
County Youth Committee member for 4 years, and an
Extension Council member for the past 8 years. Throughout these roles, she has passed on valuable expertise and
advice to many 4-Hers by working on state award applications with them, helping them create educational presentations and leading their fundraising efforts. Her club
members especially appreciate her willingness to be their
personal cheerleader, helping them find new opportunities and reach their fullest potential. Cheryl has also been
instrumental in bringing community service initiatives to
her club. A priority of hers is to serve others, which is a
trait she has passed on to many 4-Hers.

Outside of 4-H, Cheryl remains actively impacting her community in even more ways by serving on her
local school board, being a Sunday School teacher, pianist and music director for her church, and helping with
the Farm Safety Just 4 Kids program. She also enjoys her
role as an editor for the Successful Farming magazine and
spending time with her husband, Stan, and two daughters,
Allison and Alexa.

During the Awards Day program, members of
the Boone County 4-H Youth Committee presented 4-H
member awards as well and recognized 4-H club leaders. Twenty-Five youth were installed as members of the
2015 - 2016 County 4-H Council.

Cheryl Tevis-Lingren from Pilot Mound was this
years recipient of the Fran Thompson Memorial Outstanding Leader Award. This is a highlight of the 4-H Awards
Day program in November.

SV FFA members among students

attending national FFA convention
e
The 88th National FFA Convention and Expo
ewas held October 28-31st in Louisville, Kentucky with
over 64,000 members, parents and guests present. Four
lmembers and their advisor of the Central Plains FFA
Chapter attended this years event.

The chapter traveled with eleven other chapters from north central Iowa. Members participating this
year were Mason Bahr, Ben Carlson, Ryan Jondle, Lucas Pontius and Mr. Kehoe. The south bus had members
and advisors from the following high schools: Gilbert,
Grundy Center, South Hamilton (Jewell), Southeast Valley (Gowrie), Roland-Story, and West Marshall (State
Center).

The first order of business on the trip was to tour
Midway College Equine Program and the Kentucky
Horse Park. That evening the group went to the opening
session in Freedom Hall on Wednesday evening to hear
remarks from motivational speaker Rick Rigsby. Dr,
Rigsby shared laughter, wisdom and inspirational stories
to motivate the students to be the very best that they can
be.

The students attended the FFA Session in the

Center. The Muhammad Ali Center is a cultural attraction
and international education center that is inspired by the
ideals of its visionary founder Muhammad Ali.

It features two-and-a-half levels of interactive
exhibits and captivating multimedia presentations. The
rest of the afternoon the students spent their time at the
convention site touring the FFA Career Show exhibits.
The day ended observing the FFA talent competition and
attending the third general session.

The third day of the trip, the group began their

Dean Erb, who was an attorney at the Gowrie
law firm for many years, returned to greet many Gowrie
area residents. Dean, who is retired, and his wife
Keya now reside in Amery, WI.

Jim Kramer, who is now the attorney at the
Johnson Law firm in Gowrie, was a good host along with
Jan Miller, the current legal secretary.

I have so many good memories of Gowrie and
the many great people, said Dean. I am so pleased to
have been an attorney with our firm in Gowrie.

Dean and his wife enjoy Amery, WI, which is on
Highway 8 in northwest, WI. Amery has some beautiful
lakes. The Erbs enjoy the community along with other
area cities including River Falls.

Callender, a settlement first named Kesho,

later being renamed after its founder

In 1869, the first records show that a settlement
called Kesho (later Callender) was made along the Des
Moines Valley Railroad that went to Fort Dodge. A depot
was built but because of lack of business was moved to
Tara by rail. Another depot was built in 1875 and was
used until about 1960. After standing idle all these years,
it was torn down in 1973.

In 1875, Agnes and James Callender of New
York owned all of Kesho and much of the surrounding
area. In 1896 a trainload of relatives from Buckingham,
ILL., came to Webster County and settled in the Kesho
area They included Ole Heggen, Lars M. Larson, Elias
Lowry, Ben Heggen and John Wing and their families.

The first school was held in the Anton Hanson
home and the second was held in 1876 in the Eli Bean
Grocery and Dry Goods store. The family lived on the
first floor, ran the store there and also tended the post office while school was conducted on the upper floor.

About this time the citizens of Kesho decided to
move to the west side of the tracks and change the name
of the town to Callender, after the founder. They donated
the area which is now the park and school grounds--also
the area where the Town Hall and three churches were
located.

The town began to grown. A larger school was
needed so the first one was built in 1880.

In 1892 they organized the Callender Independent District. It continued to grow in 1898 a new building
was erected which was to serve, after remodeling in 1919,
until 1936. At this time a large brick structure was erected
with W.P.A. help and in 1957, it had to be enlarged.

In the spring of 1962, the last Callender High
School class held graduation commencement exercise.

On July 1, 1962 the Prairie Community School
System was officially formed, combining Callender,
Moorland, Gowrie, and Lanyon schools. In 1965 more
classrooms were added to the school.

The first blacksmith was Ole Larson, father
of Lewis H. Larson, whose shop stood for a short time
were the east side of Schuster Groceteria now is. Syvert
Thorsrud, who built his first shop about half a block north
of the present fire station, was next and it remained for
years.

Later the blacksmith work was done by Merril
and Old Thorsrud followed by a Mr. Castle, Sprague Davis, Whitten, Munson and Slagle.

Callender had a cop of its own. In early days
there was a jail behind the town hall. Later a cell or compartment was made in the back part of the clerks office.
This was built in the late 20s or early 30s after the big
fire of 1923.

One of the first justices of peace was H. M. Ultang who also was mayor.

One of the most popular citizens of the town in
early 1900s was Sam Bollinger. He was considered the
smartest man in town as he taught school, gave legal advice and anyone who needed advice would go see Sam.

Then too, a Benny Farber with a little wagon
and ponies, would come in the summer months and go
into the country and buy junk. Hed pile it by the stockyards and ship it out.

A newspaper called the Callender Times was
established in 1892. Its first editor was A. A. Rasmusson
who sold it to a Mr. Libby who in turn edited it for a few
years and then sold it to a man in South Dakota.

Callender also had a flour mill which was built
and operated by N. C. Rasmusson. The mill was located
where the old Callender Elevator used to have their office.

R. T. Mortimer was the first stock buyer in Callender. He was the father of Dr. Arnets wife, Anna. He
also was a grain buyer but the first grain buyer was a Peter L. Dustrude.

There were three elevators in Callender, the Des
Moines Elevator Company, North Grain Company and
the Farmers Elevator Company. The Farmers Elevator
bought the North Elevator and Heber Fitz was the first
manager. About 1939 the two remaining elevators combined and were under management of Nels Pearson. It
was called the Callender Grain Company. In 1965, shares
were sold and it became the Big Four Co-op Oil Association. In 1973, Callender Coop Elevator merged with Palm

Grove, Lanyon, Lundgren, Harcourt and Gowrie and became the Consolidated Cooperative, Inc.

An electrical shop was operated by Jay Brunson.
Electric lights were brought into the town in 1917 and
street lights in 1919 J. N. Brunson did most of the wiring.

The town also at one time had three ice houses.
The first movies were shown in the Opera House, run
by Otis Bortz, the barber. He then moved his outfit the
Brunson Building which burned in 1923.

In about 1914 or 1915, there was a dressmaking
shop run by Mabel Peterson.

Callender also had a creamery which was run by
Martin Wing for many years.

There were two livery stables, one owned by
Tom Bartlett and T. C. Curyea. The other was run by
Carl Berg. Henry Knutson (who both quit to become mail
route carriers), then Otto J. Knutsons moved in and managed the place

The first drug store was built by Ole Haatvedt.
m
George Knutson worked for him and was druggist in Cal-c
lender until his death, years later. He had become joint
owner with Dr. Arent, who built a fine brick structure
with family quarters on the second floor. He bought Dr.
Arent out and the drug store was know as Knutson Drug.
It later housed a grocery store run by three different parties. It was Bartletts Jack Sprat Store. Then a family by
the name of Clevengers bought it and later sold it to Les
Dey. After this it became a cafe.

The first restaurant though was built by Oliver
Hicks. He also kept boarders. It was located where the library building was in 1975. Other restaurants in the early
1900s were run by Charly Fritz, George Lyons, Sr.

I was asked about Keith Ferguson, who is now

good visit with Keith and he is well. Wife Mary and son

I did meet Gayle Redman for the first time. She

There were great hot meat entrees and an elegant cold meat and vegetable tray. Jim Kramer was exhorting everyone to eat well. And we did.

will have the ability to use eminent domain to gain rights to

the land located along the path that the pipeline would be
built.

If built, the pipeline, being proposed by Texasbased company Dakota Access LLC, would carry crude
oil from North Dakotas Bakken Shale through South Dakota and Iowa en route to a hub in Pakota, Ill., where it
would connect to a Texas-bound pipeline. It would extend
343 miles through 18 Iowa counties, including Story and
Boone.

Thursdays event was the public comment period
of the hearing. Around 500 people attended the event, with
more than 200 having the opportunity to voice their objections or support over the pipelines construction.
Speakers that shared their concerns over the project focused
mostly on issues concerning the environment and local
farmers that may be impacted by the pipeline, while supporters of the project said it would create jobs for construction workers in the state.

Marcy Good of Boone was among the first people
who spoke, saying her family has been farming Iowa land
for seven generations and she was worried that the pipeline
may prevent future generations from carrying on her familys tradition since her farm is one of many properties the
pipeline would have to cross.

Caring for the land is everyones responsibility,
Good said. We all realize that Iowa has some of the most
productive land in the world. Iowa is in the business of agriculture, not the crude oil business. We plant seeds in our
soil that grows to nourish the world, we dont want anything planted in our land that could potentially be harmful.

Kevin Miller, a representative of the International
Union of Operating Engineers from Des Moines, said he
supported the pipelines construction because he didnt believe the project would create a serious risk to the environment.

Nobody in their right mind would want something to happen where there was a major spill or an accident,
so that needs to be taken into consideration, Miller said. I

County with ISG. Webster County provides this Letter of Intent with the
understanding that ISG will provide its services and inspections consistent
with, but not limited to, specifications provided to ISG by Webster County
regarding the Countys agricultural drainage and roadway systems. It
is Webster Countys understanding that all costs associated with these
inspection services will be paid by Dakota Access, and that Webster
County will act as a pass through agent. This Letter of Intent is predicted
on the Iowa Utilities Board (IUB) approving the permit application for
Dakota Access. This letter is neither a show of support nor opposition to

this Letter of Intent will be considered null and void.

Winter safety tips

on natural gas

As usual, winter will be here quicker than we
think. To prepare, Black Hills Energy encourages everyone to make sure gas heating systems and appliance
components are clean and working properly before using
them this fall.

Natural gas is a clean, safe, reliable source of
energy for more than 70 million natural gas utility customers in the United States, and much of that energy
is used to heat U.S. homes and businesses, said Steve
Markwardt, Supervisor Gas Operations for the Webster
City area. You schedule regular maintenance on a car
for efficient performance, safe operation and longer life.
In the same way, its important to have heating and ventilating equipment inspected annually by a professional,
especially before you use them for the first time each fall.
An annual inspection and tune-up can ensure that your
heating equipment is running properly and operating efficiently.

Black Hills Energy also recommends that customers maintain carbon monoxide detectors and have
them inspected regularly to verify proper operation. A
functioning carbon monoxide detector may offer an early
warning of the presence of carbon monoxide, a colorless
and odorless byproduct of the incomplete burning of fuels including wood, gasoline, charcoal and natural gas.
Gas appliances require adequate air intake for complete
combustion and must be properly vented for safe and efficient operation.

Signs of a potential carbon monoxide leak can
include, but are not limited to, flu-like symptoms a
scratchy throat, runny nose, headache, drowsiness or
nausea. Other indicators could include frosted windows
due to excessive humidity, or a draft from the front of
the furnace when it is not turned on. If you think carbon
monoxide is present, leave the premises immediately and
call 911 or Black Hills Energys emergency service line,
800-694-8989, from a nearby location.

If youre a
Black Hills Energy
customer and you have
questions about home
heating safety, please
call us without hesitation, Markwardt said.

Bakken Pipeline...
agree that climate change is an important issue, although

people need to realize that its a global issue and it can not
be fixed just here in the United States and in Canada.

Miller went on to tell people who were objecting
to the pipelines construction to focus more on attempting
to clean up countries with worse environmental practices,
such as China and India.

Audubon resident Edward Wiederstein agreed
with Miller, saying oil pipelines have been shown to be a
low risk form of transportation for crude oil.

Pipelines are the safest method available for
transporting energy products. This project represents a
chance to help energy get where it needs to go with less risk
to our land and water and at a cost that keeps it affordable,
Wiederstein said.

Arlene Bates said her family has farmed land
south of Cambridge for more than a century and she believes that any risk to the land is more risk than Iowans
can afford. She also questioned the companys right to use
eminent domain to gain access to the properties owned by
people who refuse to sign releases to grant easements.

Why should a private company have the right to
come in and take our land for their own personal profit?
Bates said.

Elaine Foley of Montrose in southeast Iowa said
she thought the use of eminent domain was completely unjust and called upon the IUB to protect the interests of Iowa
citizens over the profits of the out of state companies.
This insidious assault on Iowas land and its people must
be stopped. The obscene use of eminent domain power to
confiscate and prostitute Iowas resources must be denied,
Foley said.

Scott Hughes said he grew up his familys farm in
Wildwood, Mo., which had oil pipelines running across the
property. He said he never experienced any issues with the
pipelines, but the impact it would have on local construction workers would make the product worthwhile.
Hughes said that even though the jobs created by the pipeline project would be mostly temporary jobs, it would give
families a way of, paying the mortgage, paying monthly
utility bills and putting their kids through college.

Nevada, Iowa, resident Heidi Drees-White said
that the pipeline might create some union jobs for construction workers but it may take jobs away from other union
members, such as railroad workers.

It takes a two-person crew to take a train from
Omaha to Boone and another two-person crew to take that
train from Boone to Clinton. That means four people to take
an oil train across the state and four people to take it back
empty. Two hundred forty jobs per week and 12,480 jobs
each year. These trains are moved by Iowans who live in
our state permanently, and are currently employed in union
positions, Drees-White said.

Several members of the group opposing the pipeline pointed out that many of the speakers, such as Hughes,
came from out of state and didnt represent the interests of
Iowa residents.

Nathan Malachowski, of Des Moines, and a
member of Iowa Citizens for Community Involvement,
which has opposed the pipelines construction and the use
of eminent domain to obtain property for the project, criticized the IUBs process and told the board he would be one
of the many Iowans who would inherit the consequences
of your decision making.

Think about us, because this really isnt your decision to make. Who are you to put the futures of young
folks across the country into jeopardy? So you can what,
pad your resume by successfully protecting corporate interests at the utilities board? Please the governor? Advance
your political careers? Its my understanding that some of
you on the board have already failed at that anyway. My
generation still has hope that theres another way of doing
things, Malachowski said.

No comments were made by the IUB during the
eight-hours of testimony. All rulings and decisions will be
held for the end of the hearing process. The evidentiary
hearing is scheduled to begin on Nov. 16 and continue
through Dec. 2, depending on the amount of time needed.

the Iowa Utilities Board and decided to address the crowd
instead during the IUB hearings over the proposed Bakken
pipeline Thursday in Boone. Kashia, while standing in front
of a large clock that showed her remaining time, said it was
up to the people to decide if the project should move forward, not the IUB. Photo by Austin Harrington/Ames Tribune.

Rural hospitals strong in Iowa,

but are closing in many other states
Iowans rank high in overall health.

November 19 was National Rural Health Day.
Across the country, celebrations and events are scheduled
to recognize rural health care providers and the patients
they serve.

In Iowa, that amounts to a lot of celebrating!

There are 90 rural hospitals and 152 certified rural health clinics located in all corners of the state. Thats
a good thing because 43 percent of Iowans live in communities or areas that are considered rural. Those hospitals and clinics provide outstanding care that is among the
most affordable in the country.

There are medical clinics in both Gowrie and
Dayton and both communities also have pharamcies.

A recent survey by the Iowa Department of
Public Health shows we continue to be among the top 10
states in our percentage of adults with excellent or good
health. And the percentage has increased since 2013.

Rural leaders often wonder why the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is involved in the financing of hospitals and clinics in small towns. USDA
Rural Development has supported more than 50 rural
hospitals, medical clinics, nursing homes and/or assisting living facilities in rural Iowa since 2009 with nearly
$350 million in direct loans, guaranteed loans and grants
to make needed facility and equipment improvements.

An easy answer is that rural residents deserve
the same access to quality health care as urban dwellers.
Time matters in a life-threatening situation, and the distance required to get to a doctor can be a matter of life
or death. At the same time, rural Iowa has more elderly
residents with greater ongoing health care needs. Again,
distance to a doctor matters.

But health care providers are more than caregivers. They create jobs and opportunity in rural areas
and are economic engines in the communities they serve.
A recent Iowa Hospital Association (IHA) study found
health care in Iowa provides about 294,000 jobs, or more
than one-fifth of Iowas total non-farm workforce. In
terms of economic impact, Iowas health care industry
contributes more than $14.3 billion.

Those are big numbers in Iowas urban centers,
and they are astronomical in rural areas and small towns.

Think about the largest employers in our small
towns. The school district is one. County and municipal
government might be another. Hospitals and clinics are
often among the largest, and best paying, employers in
town.

Thats why USDA Rural Development steps in.

We have invested in the construction of new
hospitals in places like Clarinda, Denison and Sumner.
We have financed expansions and improvements in Oskaloosa, Belmond and Guttenberg. We have partnered to
create rural clinic spaces, both for doctors and dentists,
..
from Ogden to Wapello.

But, there is always more to be done.

Rural hospitals are facing challenges. Because
of their size, modest assets, limited financial reserves,
and a higher percentage of Medicare patients, small and
rural hospitals disproportionately rely on government
payments. Meanwhile, only 10 percent of the physicians
in the United States practice in rural areas. Plus, rural residents are less likely to have employer-provided health
care coverage.

Those factors have prompted the closures of rural hospitals in a number of states outside Iowa. In fact,
55 rural hospitals have closed since 2010, and 283 more
are on the brink of closure.

In Iowa, our rural hospitals are strong, provide
quality care and do so in an amazingly affordable way.
That is way it is important for rural Iowans to stand up,
celebrate the health care they receive and work to ensure the hospitals and clinics which provide that care are
around for many years to come.
