Jo Jo’s Cookie Kart - Is a new venture run by Matt and Joey Livengood and Samantha
Miles, all of Mound City, that takes Joey’s good baking on the road.
New business rolls
into local venues
For years, family and friends have enjoyed
Joey Livengood’s delicious sugar cookies
and birthday cakes. She has mastered the skill
of decorating her cakes and cookies, but most
love the flavor of her delectable baked goods.
Several years ago, Joey and her sister, Samantha Miles, joined forces and started up
Northwest Graphix, offering screen printing,
embroidery and vinyl lettering on clothing
and other products. They moved their business this spring from State Street in Mound
City to Route N, five miles north of Mound
City with an addition to their workload in
mind. If the new venture worked out, there
might be an occasional Thursday or Friday
that the two would not be at the shop and
they didn’t want to close a storefront. The
business now runs mostly on phone calls and
emails that can be handled from anywhere
and offers the same quality products as always.
Joey and her husband, Matt, and Samantha
had been talking about buying a concession
trailer for several years. They finally decided
to start up a new business on weekends and
purchased a concession trailer, complete with
two ovens. Jo Jo’s Cookie Kart became a reality the first part of May and has kept the
trio busy most weekends since, traveling to
county fairs, flea markets, rodeos and even
setting up in the parking lot of Dick’s Sporting Goods one day. The trio hopes to attend
several carnivals this year, also. “We have
learned something new at each place we have
set up so far,” stated Joey.
Jo Jo’s Cookie Kart sells fresh baked cookies, ice cream sandwiches, sundaes, cake
pops and rice crispy treats on a stick. At the
Rumble By The Refuge Truck and Tractor
Pull on Friday and Saturday, June 24-25, at
Mound City, Jo Jo’s Cookie Kart will be adding two new products for sale: slushies and
frozen chocolate-covered cheesecakes.
The bright yellow trailer will be set up behind the new crow’s nest at the tractor pull
and the crew of Jo Jo’s Cookie Kart is looking forward to showing off their goodies for
the locals. A sweet tooth will definitely be
satisfied with all of the delicious goodies being offered at the latest new business in town.
Community Hospital-Fairfax to open new clinic in Fall 2016
Plans are underway to bring family
medicine to Burlington Junction, MO,
in the fall of 2016. With the recent announcement about Lindsay Allan, M.D., joining the Community Hospital-Fairfax
(CH-F), MO, team in October, the hospital is now able to expand its clinic presence.
“Primary care access is absolutely essential to the health of a community. The
more locations in our service area we can
bring family medicine, the better it is for
our communities,” explained CH-F Chief
Executive Officer, Roger Steinkruger.
The hospital is still working on plans
for which providers on the team will be
seeing patients in Burlington Junction
and on what days, but plans are moving forward to locate land and bring in a
modular clinic for the planned late fall of
2016 opening.
CH-F has recently been expanding its
family medicine presence. In August of
2014, a clinic was opened in Mound City
with Dustin Carpenter, Doctor of Medicine (M.D.), and Becky Heits, Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), seeing patients. In January of 2016, Sherlyn Sipes,
FNP, began seeing patients in the South
Holt Family Medicine Clinic in Oregon,
MO. Burlington Junction adds a convenient location for residents in Nodaway
County to receive primary care.
Questions about plans for the clinic
can be directed to the hospital at 660686-2211. For updates about the clinic
and other hospital happenings, watch the

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Bud Neiderhouse. We will sure miss Bud stopping by the newspaper
office from time to time. Most of you knew Bud, and how kind
hearted he always was. Bud used to draw a weekly cartoon
for this newspaper a few years ago. He always made our day
brighter and he will never be forgotten. I picked an old cartoon
that Bud had drawn for the paper. This one happened to appear
in the March 14, 2013, edition of the Mound City News.

“Right, rights.” Have you ever looked
up, in a modern dictionary, the meaning of
the word “right”? Be sure to have plenty of
time because the explanation of the word
“right” takes up at least 10 inches of a page,
not counting the words “rightness”, “rightmost”, “by rights”, “by all rights”, “in
one’s right”, “righter”, “right away”, “right
brain”, “righteous”, “rightful”, “rightism”,
“right now” (a popular one used by parents,
teachers, etc., in saying ‘Do it, Gene, right
now’), “right off”, and “right on” (typical
greeting). In school, in my day, I don’t remember looking up anything about “right”.
Now, all we see or hear about is someone’s
“rights”, but usually not what affects one’s
“rights”. Guess that’s why Webster had to
enlarge its book to get all the words in, but
a lot of good it does if not enough pay attention to it. The problem we have is that
too many “rights” for a few have been
made into laws to go by. I don’t think a
law can make people truly like each other.
I think new laws only further separate us
into different groups, etc.
It has always seemed to me that we were
born instilled with the ability to know what
is “right”. As we grew up, I’m sure when
we deliberately did a certain thing like
dump our plate on the floor, throw something, tear up our toys, etc., we dared being disciplined for it; and if we weren’t,
we tried it again. How did we know it

stood there and one rubbed and petted the
roof like you would a pet and the other did
the same to the hood and they were gone.
We decided wherever they came from,
whatever they had done or would still do,
somewhere in their backgrounds there was
still a respect for that Jeep, the USA, and
the “right” for it to sit there and not be
bothered. Everyone related the little Jeep
to our country - next to the flag. I told Bill,
I bet those young men would look after our
Jeep that night and not let anyone bother
it. Wonder if that show of “rights” was left
over from birth or what was taught them?
Our country did fairly well for a long time
by mostly sticking to our structure of laws,
which are forgotten now it seems. That we
were a government by the people, for the
people, and of the people, I think that’s
“right”.
An example that shows how unbalanced
we are now was in the St. Joseph NewsPress in the “Mallard Fillmore” drawing.
It had a drawing of a restroom door with
the sign on it saying “Gender Neutral Restroom” with someone inside shouting,
“Okay, who left the toilet seat halfway
up?”. As stupid as that is, I’m sure someone will be making a toilet seat that will
work halfway up. Laws made for a few
are different. I’ll still take most of the old
ways with the different meaning of “right”.
Watch your back.
Notes from Tiffany Heights

By Eugene A. Poynter
wasn’t “right”? We couldn’t even walk yet.
Thanks go to our parents who kept us on
the “right track” - if you want to call it that.
Over the years, some decided they had the
“right” to do what they wanted - thinking
and demanding all their “rights”, ignoring
others who had “rights” too. Back when
our country was new, we were governed
by a set of laws based on the needs of the
majority. What happened? Gradually, the
so called “rights” of a few dominated with
demands for them only. We all let it happen. I guess it was easier to sit back and
let it go, but the early laws were “right”.
There is a verse of an old cowboy song I
like . . . “Back in the saddle again, where
you sleep out every night and the ONLY
LAW IS RIGHT . . . whoever wrote those
words was really thinking.
When another veteran and I drove the
Jeep across America, there was one outstanding happening that I never forgot.
While we were eating an evening meal
somewhere in Ohio, we decided we’d park
the Jeep close and sit down and enjoy a
relaxed one. It went well until a band of
young men came by - every size, color,
clean, dirty, bearded, long hair, shaved
head - and surrounded the Jeep. For some
reason I told Bill, let’s wait and see what
happens. They walked with folded arms all
around it several times, talking and looking it over and decided to move on. Two

INFORMATION FOR MISSOURI CORN FARMERS
In 2009 Syngenta released a new strain of corn seed into the
United States market before receiving import approval from
China. Without import approval, China rejected U.S. corn
shipments in 2013 and 2014, causing a global collapse in corn
prices. Any corn farmer, regardless of whether or not they
planted Viptera or other Syngenta seed was impacted.

Letters alert eligible Medicare
beneficiaries to missed benefits
Medicare beneficiaries will
soon be receiving a letter from
the Social Security Administration
(SSA) if they may be eligible for
help with out-of-pocket medical
and drug expenses. “These letters
are not a scam. They are an important notification that Medicare
beneficiaries should review and
consider,” reports representatives
from Northwest Missouri Area
Agency on Aging (NWMOAAA).
“Our staff members can help determine if beneficiaries are eligible, help apply, enroll, and even
understand how to use the new
benefits after approval.”
The letters are sent annually to
people with Medicare with limited incomes who could be eligible for, but are not enrolled in, a
Medicare Savings Program, which
helps with Medicare out-of-pocket
costs; or Extra Help, which helps
with the costs of prescription
drugs.
Anyone who receives a letter,
or who believes they or someone
they know may be able to get
help from these programs, should
contact Northwest Missouri Area
Agency on Aging at 888-844-5626
or 726-3800. to make an appointment for assistance. NWMOAAA
encourages beneficiaries who receive these letters to take action
to learn more about the Medicare
Savings Program (MSP) and Extra
Help or other programs of possible
eligibility.
In addition, Medicare beneficiaries can go online to see if they are
eligible for MSPs, Extra Help and
other benefits that can supplement
the monthly budget. The National
Council on Aging’s BenefitsCheckUp® is a free, confidential
screening tool that can connect
older adults and younger adults
with disabilities to these programs.

Letter to the editor
Dear Editor,
An interesting question was recently asked of the Holt County Extension Office staff: When was the Holt County Extension
Council formed? Unfortunately, we have not found the records
necessary to answer that question. Even our call to the University
Extension office in Columbia did not provide this information. We
would like to invite your readers to help us answer this, and other
questions.
A number of items have been found, including pictures dating
back to the 1920s. If you, or someone you know, has pictures or
other artifacts from 4-H, an Extension Club, or other University
Extension activities, you may contact the office at 446-3724, or
mail copies of items to P.O. Box 407, Oregon, MO, 64473. We
would be very interested in finding out the names and years of
service for county agents, council members, 4-H leaders, and others who have been instrumental in the development of the Holt
County University Extension program.
Sincerely, Jodie Kurtz, Vice-Chair
Holt County Extension Council

Big crowd raises funds
for Aidan Waggoner and family
A benefit dinner, auction and special raffles’ night was
held for Aidan Waggoner, 6, of Oregon, MO, on Saturday, June 18, at the TJ Hall building in Oregon. The
event, along with donations, raised over $15,000 for
Team Aidan with more than 350 people attending.
Aidan and his parents, Rob and Kristi Waggoner, did
not return from Pennsylvania, where Aidan had been a
patient at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia for several days, until Sunday, June 19, at 9:30 p.m. The family was escorted into town by the South Holt fire trucks
of Oregon. More than 100 people attended his welcome
home rally on the Oregon square and Aidan was made
an honorary member of the South Holt Fire Department.
Aidan was born with Peripheral Left Heart disease
and has had four heart surgeries. As a complication from
his last surgery, Aidan developed plastic bronchitis, a
lymphatic flow disorder that causes severe respiratory
issues. His recent trip to Philadelphia was for a very rare
surgery to, hopefully, avoid the need for a heart transplant.
Many fund raisers are still planned for the Waggoner
family, including a special at Buffalo Wild Wings in St.
Joseph, MO, in July. Check out the Team Aidan Facebook page or contact Stacie Todd at 816-261-0493 for
any information or to make a donation to Team Aidan.

boots from the Southern Holt Volunteer Fire District in Oregon, MO - Were

Ever wonder what fresh fruits or
vegetables are the best buy because
they are in season locally; or what
might be available at a farmers’ market or roadside produce stand; and
what to do with what is available,
including a variety of preservation
methods? Well, there is an application (app) for that. University of
Missouri (MU) Extension has recently updated its Seasonal and Simple application that answers these
questions and more.
The Seasonal and Simple app provides a list of fruits and vegetables
that are available locally in Missouri. The app tells when they are in
season, how to select them, what nutritional value they have and how to
store them to best maintain quality.
It also includes some other produce
items that are likely to be available
year-round though not grown in
the Midwest, like bananas or pineapples.
For each fruit or vegetable listed,
there is an explanation of how to
prepare the fruit or vegetable, in general, and some serving suggestions
and recipes. Some of these recipes
are specific to the particular fruit or
vegetable itself. Others include other
fruits or vegetables that would be
in season at the same time of year.
Some of the recipes in the Seasonal
and Simple app are pretty basic, like
whole baked apples, cheesy broccoli
and pasta bake, or roasted pumpkin
seeds. Others are less common ideas
like spinach on pizza, grilled radishes, or roasted beet salad. Some recipes just offer a new way to fix an old
standby, like roasted sweet potatoes:
no sugar added, but instead roasted
with basil, oregano, garlic or ginger.
With 3.0 version updates made in
time for the 2016 growing season,
the Seasonal and Simple app now
also includes guidelines for preserving produce. Recipes and procedures
for canning, freezing and dehydrating are included. These recommen-

safety. There are also short videos
and definitions of terms to help
the novice understand what to
do. For more information on food
preservation or to set up a handson class, contact a local MU Extension office.
Although the original app is
available for use with iPhone,
iPad, and Android devices, the updates have so far only been added
to the iPhone/iPad version. The
basic information is also available
online at seasonal andsimple.info.
“MU Extension partnered with
the University of Nebraska to expand the application to include
a feature that locates Nebraska
farmers’ markets,” says Cindy
DeBlauw, coordinator for this updating project and MU Extension
Associate in the department of
Nutrition and Exercise Physiology. The app also indicates seasonality information for Nebraska.
DeBlauw adds, “Both partners
continue to seek additional state
Extension partnerships to further
expand the reach of the app.”
Some of the information is also
available in book form, Seasonal

The U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) announced that the nomination period for farmers and ranchers to serve on local
Farm Service Agency (FSA) county committees began on Wednesday, June 15.
“Through the county committees, farmers and ranchers have a voice. Their opinions
and ideas get to be heard on federal farm programs,” said FSA Administrator Val Dolcini.
“I encourage all eligible farmers and ranchers
across the spectrum of American agriculture to
get involved in this year’s elections. We have
seen an increase in the number of qualified
nominees, especially among women and minorities, and I hope that trend continues.”
To be eligible to serve on a FSA county committee, a person must participate or cooperate
in an FSA administered program, be eligible to
vote in a county committee election and reside
in the local administrative area where they are
nominated.
Farmers and ranchers may nominate themselves or others. Organizations representing
minorities and women also may nominate
candidates. To become a candidate, an eligible
individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination
form. The form and other information about
FSA county committee elections are available
at www.fsa.usda.gov/elections. 2016 nomination forms must be postmarked or received
in the local USDA Service Center by close of
business on Monday, August 1.
FSA will mail election ballots to eligible
voters beginning Monday, November 7. Ballots must be returned to the local county office

Fireworks safety
Independence Day is one of the most accident-prone holidays of
the year. It's not the drinking and driving, but the one thing that everyone looks most forward to on the 4th that causes the most problemsthe fireworks. The National Council of Fireworks Safety estimates
that between 7,000 and 10,000 injuries occur every year because of
fireworks. Being aware of a few basic rules for fireworks safety can
keep everyone healthy.
Little kids are probably the most excited by fireworks, but they are
also the ones in the most danger. It's important to have a conversation
with kids every year about fireworks safety, particularly as they get
older and get a little more independent. Kids like to explore and imitate their parents or older siblings, so start them off with something
small and stress safety at every turn.
Alcohol is not uncommon at 4th of July celebrations, but drinking
and fireworks, much like drinking and driving, are not a good combination. Alcohol can impair judgment and encourage additional risk
taking. Just as you would have a designated driver at a New Year's
Eve party, have a designated fireworks lighter that evening.
Fireworks should be used as they are intended, and you want to
make sure you use legal fireworks. The attraction of illegal fireworks
can be great, but there is no guarantee you will get anything of quality
or safe. Unregulated fireworks can have defects that will make them
explode. It can also be tempting to twist fireworks together to see
them explode, but this too can have unintended, dangerous consequences. Always keep a safe distance from fireworks and shoot in an
open space. This safe distance should be maintained by the shooter
and by visitors. Just in case something happens, keep a bucket of
water or a hose nearby.
If you don't use all of your fireworks, you'll have to store them.
Keep them in a dry place free of any sources of ignition. Store them
away from oil, gas or kerosene, and try to have them behind a locked
door so that children and teens won't raid the stash when you aren't
looking. Make sure there is a working smoke detector in the room and
you have a fire extinguisher nearby just in case.
Keeping safe when using fireworks isn't a hard task, but it does require some attention. Use common sense, and if you're tempted to try
something new, make sure you follow the manufacturers' suggestions
when lighting fireworks. That way, you can be safe year after year
and enjoy the show without becoming another statistic.

T-Ball I players get down and dirty
Trojanettes place second in Donnie
Downs Father’s Day Tournament
The Trojanettes 14 and under
team members took home second
place in the Donnie Downs Father’s Day Tournament held on
Friday and Saturday, June 17-18,
in Independence, MO. They went
4-2 on the weekend.
Game one of pool play was a nail
biter, but the Trojanettes came out
on top with Braidy Hunt knocking
in Maddyx Kirkland in the bottom
of the last inning. Sadie Smith shut
down Stealth while she was on the
rubber. Stealth managed just one
hit off of Smith, who allowed no
earned runs, walked one and struck
out seven during her five innings of
work. Shaina Culp, Smith, Bailey
Piper, Hunt, Kirkland, and Emma
Bohannon each had a hit in the victory.
The Trojanettes were never able
to get their offense going against
the Flamez in the second pool
game of the weekend. They lost by
a score of 8-0. Emily Cassavaugh
and Emma Bohannon each had a
hit in the game, while Kiah Huitt
took the loss on the mound.
On Saturday morning, the Trojanettes wrapped up pool play
with a 10-9 victory over the Rebels. Kiah Huitt got the win for
the Trojanettes. She allowed four
runs over one inning. Huitt struck
out two, walked none and gave
up five hits. The game was backand-forth heading into the fourth,
with eight lead changes. The Trojanettes pulled out the win thanks
to a strong fourth inning. The
Trojanettes went up for good on
a Runs Batted In (RBI) single by
Riley McQueen off Fisher, bringing home Bailey Piper. Emma
Bohannon, Shaina Culp, and Baylee Knorr were perfect at the plate
each going 2-2. The Rebels jumped
out to an early 2-0 lead in the top of
the first. It didn’t take long for the
Trojanettes to answer as the team
scored four runs of its own in the

first. The Trojanettes scored on an
RBI single by Knorr, a groundout
by McQueen, and a two-run single
by Emily Cassavaugh. The Trojanettes answered the Rebels’ top
inning with four runs in the second.
Then, they scored on a groundout
by Braidy Hunt, an RBI single by
Bohannon, and a two-run single by
Knorr.
The first game of bracket play
presented the Trojanettes with a
familiar opponent, the Northland
Cougarz. This was the seventh
time that the Trojanettes had faced
the Cougarz, and was a rubber
match of sorts, as each team had
won three of the previous meetings. Each time the two teams
have faced, the games have been
close, and this one was no exception. After jumping out to a quick
lead, the Trojanettes were able to
come out with a 4-3 victory. Sadie Smith recorded the win for the
Trojanettes. She allowed three runs
over five innings. She struck out
two, walked one and surrendered
four hits. Baylee Knorr went 2-2
at the plate, and had three RBIs,
while Emma Bohannon was also a
perfect 2-2 at the plate and scored
two runs. Maddyx Kirkland also
had one hit and one RBI in the
victory.
In the semifinals, the Trojanettes faced the Smithville Sting
Red, and were again victorious,
this time by a score of 5-2. The
Sting couldn’t get anything going
as long as Sadie Smith was on the
rubber. They managed just one hit
off of the Trojanettes’ pitcher, who
allowed one earned run, walked
two and struck out four. Kiah
Huitt, Smith, and Braidy Hunt
each had a hit in the victory. Emily Cassavaugh had two RBIs, and
Emma Bohannon scored two runs.
The Trojanettes’ opponent in
the championship game was the
Torque from Warsaw, MO. Although they jumped out to a 2-0
lead, the Trojanettes were not able
to hang on for the victory, and lost
by a score of 8-2. Sadie Smith
took the loss on the mound. The
Trojanettes runs were scored by
Braidy Hunt and Madeline Smith.
Next, the Trojanettes will take
two weeks off before they play in
the United States Specialty Sports
Association
(USSSA)Missouri
State Tournament Friday, July 8,
through Saturday, July 9. Their
season record is now 27-14-1.

YOUTH
Wyatt Meyer attending 2016 Missouri Scholars’ Academy
This summer, the University of
Missouri (MU) is hosting more
than 300 top Missouri high school
students at the Missouri Scholars’
Academy (MSA) in Columbia,
MO. During the program, held
June 12 - July 2, scholars are
participating in a comprehensive
educational experience that will
encourage the gifted students to
embrace their intellects and challenge themselves academically.
“All of the activities at the Academy are designed to be broadening and enriching,” said director
Steven Keller, associate director
of the MU Honors’ College. “In
their hometown high schools and
often from society at large, many
Hard work earns third place
for Mound City Pints 10-12
Mound City Pints 10-12 - Claimed the third place trophy at Clearmont, MO, in a
three-day tournament, Friday, June 10 - Sunday, June 12. Seeded seventh in the
12-team tournament, the team fought hard against good teams in extremely
hot temperatures to play in the semi-final game on Sunday, June 12. “I couldn’t
have been prouder,” said Coach Corey Gordon. “These kids really came together
as a team.” Pictured, left to right, front row, Hunter Gordon, Noah Oswald, Quinton Brandon, Bentley Wright, Cole Gillenwater and Abby Nauman; and, back
row, Coach Corey Gordon, Trevor Tubbs, William Rother, Hunter Voltmer, Chanse

of these students get the message that being smart isn’t cool;
but, at the Missouri Scholars’
Academy, we want to encourage these talented students to
own their intelligence and inspire them to put it to good use.
In particular, we hope to get
students to engage in activities
that are outside their comfort
zones and push themselves past
arbitrary limits they might have
subconsciously set for themselves.”
MSA began in 1985 and
provides students unique opportunities to expand their educational and social skills. This
year, students are spending
their days in intensive classroom settings, studying one
of four individually selected
subjects - including mathematics, science, social studies and
humanities. Each Missouri high
school is allowed to nominate
one junior-to-be for the academy; larger schools may nominate more. Students represent
nearly every county in the state.
Outside the classroom, students are participating in a series of activities, workshops
and discussions led by guest
speakers from around the country. Author and illustrator Earl
“E.B.” Lewis is headlining the
academy’s Teacher Appreciation Day activities. Other guests
include Missouri documentary filmmaker Mark Norwine,
and Linda Godwin, former
astronaut and current professor of physics at MU. Scholars have the option to watch a
dress rehearsal of the Missouri
Symphony Society, listen to
Grammy-nominated storyteller
Milbre Burch, or participate in
discussions on topics ranging
from climate change to medical
ethics, stem cells and the Syrian
refugee crisis.
MSA participants are among
the top 0.5% of Missouri students academically. One goal of
the academy is to have attendees leave with the understanding that they have a responsibility to share their talents
with others for the betterment
of their local communities.
Many MSA alumni participate
in programs such as Teach for
America, Peace Corps or other
nonprofit organizations. MSA
alumni also continue to succeed
academically. Of those who are
old enough, 98 percent of academy alumni have graduated
from high school, 90 percent
have graduated from college
and more than 2,500 alumni
have earned graduate or professional degrees.
Wyatt Meyer, an incoming
junior at Mound City R-2, was
accepted into the program and
moved on campus on Sunday,
June 12, for the three week
academy. Wyatt is the son
of Daren and Lori Meyer of
Mound City.
Four Mound R-2 FFA officers - Attended an Area I officer training

Area I FFA officer training
day at MOERA ropes course
Four members of the Mound
City R-2 FFA officer team attended Area I officer training day
at the Mozingo Outdoor Education Recreation Area (MOERA)
ropes course on Monday, June
13. The officers that attended
were Malori Davis, Gabrielle
Heck, Kaitie Smith and Bailee
Schueth. The ropes course is located outside of Maryville, MO,
at Mozingo Lake.
The girls started the day with
a few ice breakers with the other
officers of chapters which attended. There was a total of 12
students who attended the event
from Mound City, Stewartsville,
MO, and Northeast Nodaway of
Ravenwood, MO.
The final event the officers did
as a group was making their way
across the Odyssey Course. The
group had to use teamwork and
communication skills to make it
all the way across. This course is
90 feet in the air and has five separate stations that span a length
of about 100 yards. The last part
of the course was a zip line for
the participants to get down.
When the group was done with
the Odyssey Course, participants
were allowed to climb two other
rock wall structures. The officers
had a great amount of fun at this
officer training event and learned
many leadership and teamwork
skills with the various activities.
Mound City R-2 chapter advisor, Connor Dignan, accompanied the officers to Mozingo.
Richards attends HYMAX Academy
One member from the South Holt FFA
Chapter attended the 4th Annual Helping
Youth Maximize their Agricultural eXperience (HYMAX) Academy from Friday,
June 17, to Sunday, June 19. HYMAX,
sponsored by the Missouri FFA Association, was held at Camp Rising Sun located
within the Lake of the Ozarks State Park
in Kaiser, MO. Sophie Richards, daughter
of Bill and Katherine Richards of Oregon,
MO, was 1 of 100 incoming sophomores
selected from across the state to participate in this year’s HYMAX Academy.
The academy provided extensive leadership training for 100 high school students
who are members of FFA across Missouri
every year. The high school sophomore
students were selected out of many applicants to attend this Agricultural Advocacy academy through a rigorous application process. They were trained by MO
State FFA Officers as well as past MO
State FFA Officers, Agricultural Educators, Teach Ag Ed Ambassadors, and MO
FFA State Staff.
Sophie Richards
Students learned how to advocate for
agriculture, strengthen their Supervised
Agricultural Experience, and develop
their communication and personal leadership skills. Each student was assigned
a small group and agricultural issue topic
that they had to develop a 5 to 8 min-
ute presentation about. These 10 topics
ranged from GMOs, Big Data, and the
Endangered Species Act. In addition to
this, Richards toured a local goat farm
and Lake Career and Technical Center
in Camdenton, MO. Guest speakers and
presenters including Director of Agriculture Education and Missouri State FFA
Advisor Leon Busdieker, past director
Dr. Terry Heiman, Farm Bureau National
Legislative Programs Director Garrett
Hawkins, and numerous others helped
teach members the importance of “Agvocating” and telling the story as agriculturalists.
This academy is exclusively for FFA
members. The National FFA Organization
makes a positive difference in the lives of
students by developing their potential for
premier leadership, personal growth and
career success through agricultural education. Nationally there are over 500,000
FFA members. Missouri ranks fourth in
the nation with over 25,000 FFA members.

course during Area I FFA officer training day. Four members of the
Mound City R-2 chapter attended the training.

Governor Nixon signs bill to aid students
and higher education institutions
During a recent stop at the
University of Central Missouri
(UCM) in Warrensburg, MO,
Gov. Jay Nixon signed Senate
Bill 997, a higher-education bill
that will help more Missouri undergraduates complete their degrees. Among its provisions, the
bill will enable more students to
take dual-credit courses while
they are in high school, make it
easier to transfer college credits
between public higher education
institutions, and require the development of additional policies
and pilot programs to encourage
degree completion.
Standing with the bill’s sponsor, state Sen. David Pearce
(R-Warrensburg) and UCM
President Chuck Ambrose, Gov.
Nixon said the new law strengthens Missouri’s leadership in this
area.
“Over the last several years,
Missouri has become a national leader to enable students to
complete their higher education
degrees, and this bill helps us
continue to lead,” Gov. Nixon
said. “These provisions are good
for students, they’re good for
our colleges and universities,
and they’re good for our economy – because education is the
best economic development tool
there is.” Under Senate Bill 997, the
Coordinating Board for Higher
Education will work with Missouri’s public colleges and universities to develop a 42-cred-
it-hour block of foundational
courses that can be transferred
to any other public higher education institution in the state.
This will help students in getting
credit for classes they’ve already
taken, the Governor said.
The bill also creates a scholarship fund to help low-income
students take dual-credit courses while they are still in high
school, giving them a head start
on higher education and saving
them money on college costs.
Senate Bill 997 requires the
Coordinating Board and public colleges and universities to
jointly develop additional policies and pilot programs that assist in degree completion, such
as encouraging full-time enrollment and helping students map
out a pathway to attaining their
degrees. Those policies will
include “15 to Finish,” which
focuses on keeping students
on track for a degree by giving
them a strong start on taking the
needed number of credit hours
per semester in order to graduate
in four years. UCM is already a
leader in the area of degree completion, offering “15 to Finish”
scholarships since 2013.
Senate Bill 997 is only one of
the achievements made for public higher education and students
through Gov. Nixon’s leadership.
The Show-Me State has led the
nation in holding down tuition
increases for in-state students
at Missouri’s public universities
over the past seven years, and an
agreement between Gov. Nixon
and college and universities
will keep tuition flat again for
the next 2016-2017 school year.
That affordability has resulted in
a 36 percent increase in the number of Missouri students – some
50,000 – earning a higher education degree since Gov. Nixon
took office.
In 2015, the General Assembly
followed the Governor’s recommendation by passing the most
significant state bonding investment in higher education in more
than 20 years. The “Building Affordability” initiative is putting
more than $200 million in building projects on college campuses
throughout the state.
Since 2009, funding for scholarship programs has increased,
including, for Fiscal Year 2017,
an additional $4 million for Access Missouri, an additional $2.5
million for A+ Scholarships, and
an additional $500,000 for Bright
Flight. Missouri’s A+ programs
also has expanded by more than
250 high schools to become
available in more than 99 percent of public high schools in
the state; and strategic initiatives
such as Caring for Missourians,
MoHeathWINS and MoManufacturingWINS have produced
more graduates to help meet the
ongoing need for skilled professionals in high-paying and fastgrowing career fields. Midwest Corn lawsuit
informational town hall in Mound City
MidwestCornLawsuit.com will be hosting
an informational town hall meeting in Mound
City on Tuesday, June 28, at 12 p.m. (noon), at

The ruby-throated hummingbird - Seems to have vanished
from yards recently, but should be back by the end of August for
fall migration.
of nesting season, however,
from mid-May through late July,
the birds are often scarce and
not visiting feeders. It’s just an
indication you don’t have nesting hummingbirds close by.”
If weeks have gone by without
a hummingbird sighting, Rizzo
recommends taking the feeder
down for now. Hummingbird
feeders should go back up by
mid-July. “Birds will reappear by
the first of August,” Rizzo said.
A reminder, creating hummingbird “nectar” for a feeder
requires four to five parts water to one part sugar. Heat the
mixture until the sugar dis-
solves into solution. Do not use
or add a red dye to the nectar.
In late summer and fall, keep
an eye out for Rufous hummingbirds that are sometimes
seen migrating through western
Missouri from July through November. Anna’s hummingbirds
and a few other western species
sometimes migrate through Missouri, too. Hummingbird feeders
can be kept up into late autumn
to provide food for any latemigrating or unusual species.

Cindy Sons, a preschool director, had been living with constant
knee pain and was unable to get up and down with the kids.
When it became time for knee replacement surgery, she knew
just where to go – SSM Health St. Francis Hospital.
“The doctor did a great job explaining things to me,” she says,
“And the nurses talked me through what was going to happen,
like teachers.”
The results were everything Cindy had hoped for. So much so, she
recently had her other knee replaced. As she puts it, “I was confident
this group of people would take excellent care of me again.”
