The Postal Service has de-
termined that the Green Isle
Post Office will provide six
hours of window service each
weekday, according to Post
Plan Coordinator Janelle
Daniels. The current Saturday
window service hours will
not be reduced and access to
delivery receptacles will not
change as a result of the Post
Plan realignment of weekday
window service hours.
The Postal Service made
the announcement after it
concluded the Post Plan re-
view process which included
customer survey responses,
input from a community
meeting and the operational
needs of the Postal Service.
The Postal Service will an-
nounce the implementation
date and the operational hours
of the office at a later date to
allow for the completion of
the administrative tasks asso-
ciated with the implementa-
tion.
At the community meeting
last week, postal management
shared the results of a survey
which was sent out to cus-
tomers of the Green Isle Post
Office. Overall, 192 out of
480 surveys were returned.
According to the results,
165 people or 86 percent fa-
vored the realignment of
hours at the Green Isle Post
Office.
Thirteen people or seven
percent favored a mailbox de-
livery option.
Four people or two percent
favored a village post option.
Three people or two per-
cent favored a nearby post of-
fice option.
Seven people or four per-
cent made no selection.

School Board awards bids on key services

The annual report on the
Arlington Public Library was
recently presented by Direc-
tor Kathy Homme to the Ar-
lington City Council.
After brief comments about
staffing, Homme reported
that the local library contin-
ues to offer GED classes on
Tuesday nights and ESL
classes on Thursday morn-
ings.
“I’m proud to report sever-
al of our students received
their GEDs this year and I
was invited to attend com-
mencement exercises in St.
Peter,” said Homme. “It is
wonderful to see these stu-
dents complete their program
and for us to be able to pro-
vide this service in our com-
munity.”
Homme further reported
that the local library contin-
ues to work with Sibley East
and St. Paul’s schools to get
the youth involved in reading.
“We averaged seven to nine
classroom visits per month,”
said Homme. “Last May, pro-
motional visits to these two
schools and the Green Isle
Community School helped to
promote our summer reading
program. These visits also
bring in new families to our
library.
Statistics
The 2013 library card reg-
istration was1,430 which is
down 100 from the previous
year, according to Homme.
“This may be a result of
our new Traverse des Sioux
policy to review patron
records and renew patron
cards every two years,” said
Homme, “instead of the five
years we previously used. We
found out this is necessary
since cell phones replace land
lines, email addresses change
constantly, P.O Box versus no
P.O. Box. Therefore, if you
don’t use your card, it auto-
matically drops from our sys-
tem and needs to be re-en-
tered or it is simply discard-
ed.
Circulation statistics for
2013 are again down from the
previous year, according to
Homme.
“We are not alone, accord-
ing to the numbers generated
at Traverse des Sioux,” said
Homme. “As a system, we
were down 117,624 items
from the previous year or
eight percent. This has been a
trend we have been watching
for a couple of years.”
Homme continued, “The
previous year, Traverse des
Sioux had a drop of seven
percent. On a local level, we
circulated 39,992 items which
resulted in a drop of six per-
cent from the previous year.
I’m not too concerned. When
people are spending money,
library use typically drops.
When times are tough at
home, user services rise.”
On a positive note, Zinio
magazine circulation is con-
stantly climbing, according to
Homme. As of last Decem-
ber, the local library had 63 e-
magazines available for the
public.
“Zinio is a digital magazine
subscription offering numer-
ous titles for our patrons to
check out on their electronic
devices,” said Homme. “Un-
like an e-book which can
only have one user at a time,
multiple patrons can access
the same issue of a periodical
at the same time.”
Homme continued, “E-
books continue to grow. At
the end of last year we had
5,060 e-books and 791 e-au-
dios available for patrons to
check out. That number in-
creases monthly as new titles
are purchased as a system, in-
dividual library purchases or
through donations or grants.”
Homme further reported
that she has spent a large
amount of time on internet

Belle Plaine boy seriously hurt
A Belle Plaine boy was seriously injured in a one-ve-
hicle rollover accident near the intersection of 431st Av-
enue and 240th Street about two miles west of Arling-
ton around 11:17 a.m. Sunday, July 27, according to the
Sibley County Sheriff’s Department.
Andrew Bullert, 17, Arlington, was driving a pickup
truck west on 240th Street when he reportedly lost con-
trol of the vehicle around a curve onto 431st Avenue,
according to the report.
The front seat passenger, Darren Jeurissen, 14, was
not wearing a seatbelt and was ejected, the report said.
He was airlifted to the North Memorial Medical Center,
Robbinsdale, with non-life threatening injuries.
The driver and rear seat passenger, Anthony Bullert,
12, Arlington, remained in the vehicle, according to the
report. They were treated at the Ridgeview Sibley Med-
ical Center, Arlington, and released.
The Arlington Ambulance assisted at the scene.
Rollover crash with injuries
A one-vehicle rollover accident with injuries report-
edly occurred along County Road 13 just south of 220th
Street at 7:22 p.m. Monday, July 28, according to the
Sibley County Sheriff’s Department.
The vehicle involved a southbound 2002 Jeep Liberty
driven by Virginia Silva-Farias, 30, Arlington, accord-
ing to the report.
Silva-Farias and two juvenile children were transport-
ed by the Arlington Ambulance to the Rigeview Sibley
Medical Center in Arlington, the report said. The driver
was then airlifted to the North Memorial Medical Cen-
ter, Robbinsdale, with non-life threatening injuries. One
of the juveniles was transported to the North Memorial
Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.The
other juvenile was treated and released from the
Ridgeview Sibley Medical Center.
Cattle are still on the loose
Eight cows are still on the loose 10 days after a herd
of cattle escaped from a Le Sueur farm near Highway
169, according to the KNUJ Radio website.
Fourteen of the cows have been found, the report
said. While the main goal is to bring the cows home
safely, the Le Sueur County Sheriff’s Department urges
motorists to use caution in case the cows cross busy
highways like Highway 169. Le Sueur County Sheriff
Dave Tietz describes the cattle as approximately 400
pounds, mix breed, red and white, and black and white.
The cattle have only been seen north and east of Le
Sueur.
Event cancelled in Henderson
Cabelas King Kat Tournament Trail CEO Darrell Van
Vactor recently announced the cancelation of the 24-
Hour Marathon Event on the Minnesota River at Hen-
derson on Friday, Aug. 1 and Saturday, Aug. 2. The
event has been cancelled due to high waters.
Officials said safety of the anglers is the first concern.
Work on Highway 19 underway
A contractor has begun work to stabilize Highway 19
from Henderson and Highway 169, according to offi-
cials at the Minnesota Department of Transportation
(MnDOT).
Highway 19 has been closed since June 19 due to
flooding and major mud slides that left the road unsafe
for traffic.
GeoStabilzation International, Grand Junction, Colo.,
was hired with an emergency contract to treat the unsta-
ble slopes. They are using a technique called soil nail-
ing, which involves the insertion of reinforcing bars
into the newly exposed soil.
After the soil nailing is complete, a second contract
will be necessary to complete the remaining repairs of
the slopes, roadway and guardrail. MnDOT officials are
working to get Highway 19 open to traffic by fall.
Dirt Roads to perform Aug. 1
For the third or fourth straight year Dirt Roads, a
loosely organized band consisting of former Arlington-
Green Isle and Sibley East standouts, will tap the fun at
Le Sueur’s Giant Days Celebration. The band will per-
form under the tree in the park’s beer garden from 5
p.m. to around 6:15 p.m. Friday, Aug. 1.
Members of the group include Phil Camel (Troy
Koester), Jeff Fingers (Jeff Kreger), Kermit Wentweck
(Kirby Weckworth) and Spalding (Brent Spurling).
They will entertain passers-by with their original music
and a collection of covers, both main stream and deep
tracks. The Giant Days Celebration poster indicates the
band will perform until 6:30 p.m., but it will disperse
early so Wentweck can pursue glory on the baseball dia-
mond as a member of the Henderson Tigers, who travel
to Gaylord that evening to kick off Region 4C competi-
tion.
It will be the first performance by the group with
Spalding, the band’s newest member, who has proven a
perfectly capable drummer in fewer than a handful of
practices.
The band continues work on its first album, The Road
Less Graveled, and is targeting a Thanksgiving, 2014
completion date.

Placement of campaign
signs and other unauthorized
objects in state highway
rights of way is not allowed
under state law, according to
the Minnesota Department of
Transportation (MnDOT). In
addition, campaign signs may
not be placed on private prop-
erty outside of the right of
way limits without landowner
consent.
Highway rights of way in-
clude the driving lanes, inside
and outside shoulders, ditches
and sight corners at intersec-
tions.
MnDOT crews will remove
any unlawfully placed signs
and impound them at one of
its local maintenance truck
stations.
Violation of the law (Minn.
Stat. 160.27) is a misde-
meanor. Civil penalties also
may apply if the placement of
such material contributes to a
motor vehicle crash and in-
jures a person or damages a
motor vehicle that runs off
the road.
In addition, the Minnesota
Outdoor Advertising Control
Act (Minn. Stat. 173.15) pro-
hibits placing advertising ma-
terials on public utility poles,
trees and shrubs, and painting
or drawing on rocks or natu-
ral features.
Political campaign signs
are treated in the same way as
any other signs wrongly
placed on state highway
property by businesses,
churches, private citizens or
charitable groups.
For information regarding
the proper placement of cam-
paign signs or where to find
signs that have been re-
moved, contact the local
MnDOT office at 507-304-
6100. See also

Jerry L. Ball, 33, Lake Crys-
tal, according to the report.
Ball did not suffer any ap-

the report.
There were no passengers
in either vehicle, the report
said.
The McLeod County Sher-
iff's Department, Silver Lake

Hutchinson Fire Department
were among those who re-
sponded to the scene.

A statement that a teacher
provided to the St. Peter High
School principal, who was in-
vestigating allegations the
teacher hit a student with a
backpack, can be heard or
seen by a jury during a crimi-
nal trial.
That was the recent order
issued by Brown County Dis-
trict Court Judge Robert
Docherty.
The teacher, Robert C.
Shoemaker, 54, is accused of
dropping an 11-pound back-
pack on the student’s head
during a science class on
Sept. 26, 2013. The student
said he wasn’t feeling well
and had his head down on his
desk to rest when the back-
pack hit him.
Shoemaker was inter-
viewed the day after the inci-
dent. Before the interview,
Shoemaker was given what is
called a “Tennessen warn-
ing.” It warned Shoemaker
that any information he pro-
vided could be used for disci-
plinary action. The warning
also said he had the option to
not provide a statement, but
the school would then depend
on information from others to
make a disciplinary decision.
Shoemaker was not told
that the information could be
used by law enforcement for
a criminal investigation and
prosecution.
In October 2013, Shoemak-
er, who has worked at the
school for 20 years, was
charged with a gross misde-
meanor count of malicious
punishment of a child and a
misdemeanor count of fifth-
degree assault.
A motion was filed in April
by Shoemaker ’s attorney,
Sarah MacGillis, who said
the statement to the principal
should not be admissible.
Judge Docherty rejected the
request to suppress a state-
ment and said it is admissible
because school policies state
private personnel data and
confidential data about em-
ployees can be turned over to
law enforcement.
Shoemaker ’s next court
date has not yet been set.

New Football Lights
Four new lights were installed by
Kunkel Electric, Mapleton, at the Sibley
East Athletic Complex in Arlington late
last week. The new lights, purchased
from Musco Lighting Control, Os-
kaloosa, Iowa, replace the six lights
which were approximately 40 years old.
The cost of the project was $160,128.
One person is dead and an-
other hospitalized after a
power line accident in
Renville County on Monday
morning, July 28, according
to the KNUJ Radio website.
The sheriff ’s department
received a 911 call that two
people had been electrocuted
at a CAPX 2020 power line
work site northeast of Fair-
fax, according to the report.
Emergency responders ar-
rived at the site, found the
two victims and tried to re-
suscitate them. The two
workers were employed by
Donovon Construction, Ham
Lake. Both workers were
flown from the scene by
North Air Care and Life Link
III helicopters to trauma cen-
ters in the Twin Cities. Brett
D. Binman, North St. Paul,
died from his injuries, while
Joshua M. Roberts remains
hospitalized at the Hennepin
County Medical Center.
The incident is under in-
vestigation by the Renville
County Sheriff’s Department
and the Minnesota office of
Occupational Safety and
Health (OSHA).

State Representative
Glenn Gruenhagen, R-
Glencoe, issued the follow-
ing statement encouraging
Sibley County residents to
submit damage estimates
from the recent flooding so
county officials can apply
for disaster assistance:
“Residential property
owners, farms, or business-
es of Sibley County that
have experienced signifi-
cant damage from the re-
cent floods should submit
their estimates to the Sibley
County Emergency Man-
agement Director Bryan
Gorman, 400 Court Av-
enue, Gaylord, Minn. ,
55334. The phone number
is 507-237-4109. Reporting
damages does not guaran-
tee reimbursement but will
equip county officials with
the necessary cost and in-
formation to apply for dis-
aster assistance.”
Gruenhagen encourages Sibley County
residents to submit damage estimates
and computer related issues.
In an effort to provide bet-
ter service, the local library
has upgraded to a dual server
system that was paid for by
the county library budget.
“This saves time as I don’t
have to manually update 10
patron and three staff comput-
ers one at a time, ” said
Homme. “Now I only update
the staff terminals and then
the two servers which auto-
matically update all the patron
computers. This saves us an
average of 20 to 30 minutes
per computer.”
In addition, Traverse des
Sioux upgraded the library
bandwidth from three to six
Mbs. The local library is slat-
ed to receive another upgrade
to 10 Mbs this summer with
excess funding from the Tra-
verse des Sioux e-rate fund.
“We don’t need to do any-
thing on our end,” Homme
said. “Traverse des Sioux and
Socrates will take care of
everything.”
Homme also reported on
the past, current and future ac-
tivities at the local library.
In addition to Homme, the
Arlington Public Library
Board consists of City Coun-
cil member Galen Wills, Sue
Morrisette, Dee Czech, Jean
Olson, Pauline Wiemann,
Krista Kube and Lee Zwart.

Political campaign
season is here
Our View: Look for key words and phrases
in literature and public statement
Letters To The Editor
Guest Column
The political campaign season is upon the Arlington and
Green Isle area. Lawn signs have started to pop up in yards.
Brochures will soon be dropped off at homes and literature will
be stuffed into mailboxes. Incumbents and challengers will
make personal and public appearances. The political campaign
season is here and will last for the next three months.
Political junkies will savor the moment and pledge their loy-
alty to the candidates affiliated with their political party. Most
people in both communities and the surrounding area will be
annoyed with the brochures, literature, door-to-door campaign
stops and political telephone calls which always seem to occur
over the supper hour. A few residents will have no clue that a
general election is scheduled for this fall.
Whatever the case, local and area residents are encouraged to
take a moment and look for key words and phrases in
brochures, literature and public statements. With political grid-
lock at the state and national levels, people should look to see if
words like “compromise” and “bipartisanship” or phrases like
“work across the aisle” are a part of a campaign. When person-
ally approached or contacted by an incumbent or a challenger,
it is important for residents to ask if these keys words and
phrases are a part of the candidate’s vocabulary and, if so, on
what issues.
Overall, the most important message voters can relay to can-
didates of both political parties is that most people are tired of
the contact gridlock and politics as usual in St. Paul and Wash-
ington, D.C. Voters must also take it one step further and dis-
continue their support of candidates who fail to work together,
find common ground and compromise for the good of the peo-
ple.

Drivers Test
You are driving in a car at a con-
stant speed. On your left side is a
“drop off” (the ground is 18 to 20
inches below the level you are trav-
eling on), and on your right side is a
fire engine traveling at the same
speed as you. In front of you is a
galloping horse which is the same
size as your car and you cannot
overtake it. Behind you is a gallop-
ing zebra. Both the horse and zebra
are also traveling at the same speed
as you. What must you do to safely
get out of this highly dangerous situ-
ation? Get off the merry-go-round!

New Office Policy
Dress Code:
1. You are advised to come to
work dressed according to your
salary.
2. If we see you wearing Prada
shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we
will assume you are doing well fi-
nancially and, therefore, do not need
a raise.
3. If you dress poorly, you need to
learn to manage your money better
so that you may buy nicer clothes
and, therefore, you do not need a
raise.
4. If you dres just right, you are
right where you need to be and,
therefore, you do not need a raise.
Sick Days:
We will no longer accept a doc-
tor’s statement as proof of sickness.
If you are able to go to the doctor,
you are able to come to work.
Personal Days:
Each employee will receive 104
personal days a year. They are called
Saturdays and Sundays.
Bathroom Breaks:
Entirely too much time is being
spent in the toilet. There is now a
strict three-minute limit in the stalls.
At the end of three minutes, an
alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll
will retract, the stall door will open
and a picture will be taken. After
your second offense, your picture
will be posted on the company bul-
letin board under the “Chronic Of-
fenders” category. Anyone caught
smiling in the picture will be sec-
tioned under the company’s mental
health policy.
Lunch Break:
Skinny people get 30 minutes for
lunch as they need to eat more so
they can look healthy.
Normal size people get 15 minutes
for lunch to get a balanced meal to
maintain their average figure.
Chubby people get five minutes
for lunch because that’s all the time
needed to drink a Slim-Fast.
Thank you for your loyalty to our
company. We are here to provide a
positive employment experience.
Therefore, all questions, comments,
frustrations, irritations, aggravations,
accusations, contemplations, con-
sternations and input should be di-
rected elsewhere.
The Management
To The Editor,
If workers have more money in
their pockets, businesses will have
more customers. It’s fundamental to
capitalism. And yet every time the
subject of a living wage is raised,
we are told that higher wages will
cost jobs. When the minimum wage
was first established, when women
were required to be paid the same as
men, and when child labor laws
were implemented, the business
world protested. “We’re going to go
belly-up. We’ll have to close our
doors. We’ll need to lay off a whole
bunch of workers.” But it didn’t
happen that way. Truth be told,
when employees are treated better,
business improves.
Seattle recently voted to gradually
raise the minimum wage to $15 an
hour over the next seven years, the
highest in the country. The mini-
mum wage in Seattle is already 30
percent higher than the national
minimum wage. Has the Seattle
economy suffered? No. The two
cities with the highest minimum
wage, Seattle and San Francisco,
have the highest rate of job growth
by small businesses. Seattle is the
fastest growing city in the nation.
Full-time workers who get the
federal minimum wage of $7.25 an
hour are likely supplementing their
income with food stamps and claim-
ing rental subsidies and low income
tax credits. In other words, the rest
of us tax payers are subsidizing Mc-
Donalds and Wal-Mart and all the
other businesses that make huge
profits by paying very little. In many
states, Wal-Mart workers are the
largest share of Medicaid recipients.
Those workers are not going to be
buying flowers on Mother's Day or
eating out at restaurants or buying
new clothes.
Is our government too big? Then
raise the minimum wage so that
people won’t need the government
to pay their bills.

Business improves when employees are treated better
To The Editor,
Farms are all located in water
shed areas. County ditches provide
the natural flow of excess water. The
farmers pay property taxes plus an
annual assessment to maintain their
respective ditch.
Isn’t it horrible that a government
agency who operates with our tax
dollars is allowed to act -- destroy-
ing this part of Minnesota state
economy? I think so.
Common sense does not exist
when a willing tax paying U.S. citi-
zen who salutes the American flag,
who served in the military, who be-
lieves in God, who loves his com-
munity, who worked the 24/7 farm-
ing schedule all his career years, and
who has to hire lawyers to protect
his farm against a government
agency which is financed by the
taxes that citizen has just paid.
I know that this is a horrible run-
on sentence. However, having a
government agency namely the
DNR (not created by state legisla-
tive action by our representatives)
that has controls that destroy 113
years of a family’s devotion to agri-
culture does not seem fair.
I think common sense implies that
the DNR and farmers would share
concerns to solve such an issue. But
the government agencies have their
own policies to seek their goals.
Many such farm citizens in this
immediate area are in this situation.
They can be spotted by their black,
flooded out, low or non producing
fields. Flooding happens because the
DNR has control of the natural
water flow (from 14,500 acres)
going through a single culvert on
Highway 25 between Lake Erin and
Washington Lake.
Once the farmer has had the re-
peated flooding, gets discouraged,
or goes broke, he is possibly con-
tacted by the Fish and Wildlife
Agency who offers to use our tax
dollars to buy him out. (Then they
turn the acres over to the DNR for
management). When a buy-out
agreement is reached and settled
those agricultural acres are deleted
from the county’s tax base and farm-
ers’ taxes are reassessed to make up
the difference. Just look at Sibley
County’s map for all the acres, off
the tax roll, which are state and fed-
erally owned.

Will there ever be a fair balance?
By Glenn Mollette
Flying never happens until the
bird leaves the nest.
President Johnson's Great Society
is just over fifty years old. During
this very long period America' s
great society nest has become huge
and yet crowded.
President Lyndon Johnson de-
clared war on poverty in January
1964. He then needed a poster child
for his new campaign and chose my
hometown - Inez, Kentucky. The fa-
mous TIME Magazine picture of
Tom Fletcher and his family sitting
on a porch with the President hap-
pened about two miles from my
boyhood home.
Life changed for America in many
ways in the sixties. The Civil Rights
act was vital and was an important
piece of Johnson's war. Helping kids
go to college was a crucial invest-
ment in America's future. In reality
at face value it's hard to knock most
of the programs that have become
permanent American fixtures.
Most of us know someone that
has used Medicare, Medicaid, feder-
al college help, food stamps, Head
Start, Women and Infant Children
and much, much more. With any
thought whatsoever we know that
many of Johnson's programs have
been lifesavers for millions of
Americans.
The problem is how far do we go
and for how long? Three fourths of
our national budget goes to
Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security
and defense. I realize Johnson didn't
start Social Security or our defense
program. However, his administra-
tion produced about forty new pro-
grams and most of them in some
form are still in existence. Govern-
ment programs seldom go away.
They just get bigger and need more
and more money.
I am all for helping people that re-
ally need it and are trying. However,
there has to be a cut off time. Feder-
al handouts can't go on for a lifetime
unless someone is truly disabled.
A lifetime of welfare is personal
and national debilitation.
One big problem is that all of The
Great Society programs are en-
rolling more and more people. In
millions of cases people hang on to
their government support for as long
as possible. More people require
more federal budget dollars. These
dollars come from the taxes of the
American people. America is broke
and going deeper and deeper into
debt to keep our current programs
going.
The safety net programs of The
Great Society era must only be safe-
ty nets with a cut off time. Millions
should not be allowed to live in
these safety programs forever.
Whether it's one, two or even three
years there must be a cut off time
when the government says no more.
There comes a time that every
family must insist that every abled

The organist was Cheryl
Andrix, and special music by
the Emanuel Lutheran
Church Ladies Aid was
“What a Friend We Have in
Jesus. ” Congregational
hymns were “Jesus Lives;
The Victory’s Won” and “I
Know That My Redeemer
Lives.”
Pallbearers were Duane
Schmitz, Lyle Bohnen, Low-
ell Kroells, David Schmitz,
Richard Kroells and Rick
Schmitz. Interment was in the
church cemetery.
LaVon Lena Schmitz was
born Sept. 29, 1932, in rural
Bongards, to Lawrence and
Viola (Guethling) Schmitz.
She was baptized as an infant
on Oct. 23, 1932, by the Rev.
Berkenkamp and confirmed
in her Christian faith as a
youth on April 14, 1946, by
the Rev. Oppermann, both at
St. John’s Evangelical and
Reformed Church near Bon-
gards. Her memory verse was
Luke 10:42.
Her mother died when she
was 10 months old, so she
grew up with her paternal
grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.
Henry Schmitz. She attended
first through eighth grade at
Bongards rural school and in
1950 graduated from Central
High School in Norwood
Young America (NYA).
On Sept. 11, 1951, LaVon
Schmitz was united in mar-
riage with Melroy Buckentin
by the Rev. Oppermann at St.
John’s Evangelical Reformed
Church near Bongards.
They lived on a farm near
Green Isle, and the Buck-
entins were blessed with four
sons, Dale, Randy, Bruce and
Darren. They shared over 62
years of marriage together
before Mr. Buckentin died on
April 23, 2014.
Mrs. Buckentin helped her
husband farm on the family
farm near Green Isle.
She was a member at
Emanuel Lutheran Church in
Hamburg, where she partici-
pated in the Ladies Aid, Sil-
ver Seniors and volunteered
for various jobs at her church.
She especially liked volun-
teering at Bethesda Thrift
Store in Hopkins.
Mrs. Buckentin enjoyed
crocheting, sewing, crafts,
bird watching, reading, occa-
sionally fishing and traveling
with her husband, including
all 50 states. She loved gar-
dening, especially flowers
and vegetables that she would
can. Mrs. Buckentin greatly
loved her family and treas-
ured each moment she had
with them, especially her
grandchildren.
Survivors include her sons,
Dale Buckentin and his sig-
nificant other, Margaret
Thompson, of NYA, Randy
Buckentin of Green Isle and
his significant other, Becky
Keener of Cokato, Bruce

Hunters can expect a con-
servative 2014 deer season
designed to rebuild deer num-
bers across much of the state,
the Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources said.
“Hunters should check the
2014 hunting regulations
closely because only one deer
can be harvested in 95 per-
cent of the state,” said Leslie
McInenly, big game program
leader for the DNR. “To
shoot a doe, hunters may
have to apply for a permit in
areas where they haven’t in
the past and, in some places,
no antlerless harvest will be
allowed.”
In 69 of Minnesota’s 128
deer permit areas, hunters
must be chosen in a lottery to
shoot an antlerless deer. Only
bucks can be hunted in 14
areas. In 38 areas, hunters
have the choice of shooting a
doe or a buck. Bonus permits
allowing hunters to shoot
more than one deer may only
be used in seven permit areas
and for some special hunts.
“Many hunters voiced con-
cerns about current deer den-
sities and their hunting expe-
riences in recent years. We
heard from hunters at the lis-
tening sessions we conduct-
ed, in the online comments
we solicited and by contact-
ing us directly,” McInenly
said. “This past winter only
added to those concerns so
this year’s conservative ap-
proach will protect more
antlerless deer, reduce the
statewide harvest and allow
the population to rebound.”
Northeastern Minnesota
hunters will feel the greatest
impact from a bucks-only
season. In bucks-only areas,
no antlerless deer may be
harvested by any hunter, in-
cluding those with archery or
youth licenses. McInenly said
that most of these areas are
now below goal and that this
year’s conservative approach
is consistent with the DNR’s
long-term commitment to
manage deer populations at
established goal levels.
Hunters can enter the lot-
tery for antlerless permits be-
ginning Friday, Aug. 1. The
deadline to apply is Thursday,
Sept. 4. Hunters may apply
using both their firearm and
muzzleloader licenses. If
hunters are selected for both
licenses, they must select the
one season in which they
want to shoot an antlerless
deer.
Deer hunting licenses, lot-
tery applications and special
hunt applications are avail-
able at any DNR license
agent, by telephone at 888-
665-4236 or online. Lottery
winners will be notified in
October.

A one-out single by
Nathan Thomes scored
pinch runner Lucas
Schwope with the winning
run in the bottom of the
11th inning as the Arlington
A’s baseball team concluded
its regular season with a 7-6
win over visiting New Ulm
on Sunday night, July 27.
The A’s, who trailed 4-2
after seven innings, mount-
ed a rally in the bottom of
the eighth inning, but the
threat fell short when the
Kaiserhoff executed a triple
play.
Arlington scored two runs
in the bottom of the ninth
inning and knotted the game
at 4-4. RBI singles by Cody
Doetkott and Tyler Agre
were the key hits during the
rally.
New Ulm countered with
two runs in the top of the
10th inning and took a 6-4
lead.
The A’s answered with
two runs in the bottom of
the 10th inning and tied the
game at 6-6. The rally was
sparked by singles from
Thomes, Nathan Henke and
Shane Henke.
In the bottom of the 11th
inning, Matt Pichelmann
was hit by a pitch and re-
placed by Schwope who
later advanced to second
base when Doetkott reached
first base on an infield error.
Agre followed with a single
and, one out later, Thomes
drove in Schwope with the
game-winning hit.
Thomes sparked the A’s
offense with four singles.
Nathan Henke, Lukas
Bullert, Pichelmann,
Doetkott and Agre collected
two singles each while
Shane Henke, Michael
Bullert and Trevor Schrupp
added one single apiece.
Michael Bullert pitched
the first 6 2/3 innings and
yielded two earned runs on
five hits. The right hander
also struck out two, walked
three and hit three batters.
Pichelmann worked the
next 3 1/3 frames. The right
hander gave up one earned
run on two hits. He also
struck out three and hit one
batter.
Agre retired three of four
hitters in the final inning
and recorded the mound
victory.
The A’s hosted a play-in
game against Fairfax on
Wednesday night, July 30.
The results from that contest
were unavailable when this
edition of the Arlington En-
terprise went to press.
The winner of that game
will play at Jordan during
the opening round of the
Region 6C Baseball Tourna-
ment at 7:30 p.m. Friday,
Aug. 1. The double elimina-
tion region tournament will
run through Saturday, Aug.
9.

Hunters and trappers can
apply for the 2014 wolf sea-
son beginning Friday, Aug. 1,
the Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources (DNR) an-
nounced.
A total of 3,800 hunting
and trapping licenses will be
available, 500 more licenses
than last year’s seasons. The
statewide target harvest of
wolves is 250, 30 more than
last year.
The early season begins
Saturday, Nov. 8.
The latest population sur-
vey results estimate that 470
wolf packs and 2,423 wolves
lived in Minnesota’s wolf
range this past winter, 212
more wolves than estimated
on the survey conducted in
winter 2013.
“Estimates show a stable
population with no significant
change from the 2013 esti-
mate of 2,211 wolves,” said
Dan Stark, DNR large carni-
vore specialist. “We will con-
tinue to evaluate the wolf
population annually to ensure
the wolf population remains
well established across north-
ern and central Minnesota.”
The DNR’s goal for wolf
management is to ensure the
long term survival of wolves
in Minnesota while address-
ing conflicts between wolves
and humans.
Hunting Information
Starting Friday, Aug. 1,
hunters and trappers can
apply for 2,300 early-season
and 1,500 late-season licens-
es. The deadline to apply for
the hunting and trapping li-
cense lottery is Thursday,
Sept. 4.
To apply, applicants need
to pay a $4 fee, show proof of
a current or previous hunting
license and choose one of
three available license op-
tions, using the season’s letter
designation when buying:
Early season hunting (Sea-
son A) is open at the same
time the firearms deer season
is open unless a wolf zone
closes earlier because the tar-
get harvest is met. The early
season runs from Saturday,
Nov. 8 through Sunday, Nov.
23, in all Series 100 deer per-
mit areas, and Nov. 8 through
Sunday, Nov. 16, in Series
200 deer permit areas. In the
east-central zone, the early
season is scheduled to be a
two-day hunt this year, con-
cluding when legal shooting
hours end on Sunday, Nov. 9.
Late season hunting (Sea-
son B) runs from Saturday,
Nov. 29 through Saturday,
Jan. 31, 2015, or when the
target harvest is met,
whichever occurs first. If the
east-central zone’s target har-
vest is met during the early
season, the late east-central
season will not open.
Late season trapping (Sea-
son C) runs from Nov. 29
through Jan. 31, 2015, or
when the target harvest is
met, whichever occurs first.
The statewide bag limit is
one wolf and licenses are not
zone-specific. Lottery win-
ners will receive a wolf hunt-
ing booklet with their notifi-
cation.
Wolf license fees are $30
for residents and $250 for
nonresidents. The early sea-
son purchase deadline is Fri-
day, Oct. 31, with surplus li-
censes going on sale at noon
on Wednesday, Nov. 5. The
late season purchase deadline
is Friday, Nov. 21, with sur-
plus licenses going on sale at
noon on Wednesday, Nov. 26.
Information on wolf hunt-
ing is available on the DNR
website. Wolf management
information is available on-
line.

After nine years of plan-
ning and fundraising and a
little over a year of con-
struction, the Catholic Dio-
cese of New Ulm’s new
Pastoral Center has reached
completion.
The bishop of New Ulm,
the Most Reverend John M.
LeVoir, and his staff will
host an open house at the
new Pastoral Center, locat-
ed off the north corner of
5th Street North and High-
land Avenue in New Ulm
from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Fri-
day, Aug. 1. The event will
include group tours and re-
freshments. All are wel-
come to attend.
The new Pastoral Center
serves as headquarters for
Bishop LeVoir and his staff,
who serve about 60,000
Catholics in west-central
Minnesota. At 28,320
square feet, the two-story
structure (which includes a
finished basement) houses
30 offices, five conference
rooms, three workrooms,
and a chapel.
Founded in 1957, the
Diocese of New Ulm con-
sists of 76 parishes in 15
counties. Bishop LeVoir
was installed as the fourth
bishop of the diocese on
Sept. 15, 2008.

The Minnesota WIC Pro-
gram celebrates Breastfeed-
ing Awareness Month, Au-
gust 2014 and World
Breastfeeding Week, Aug. 1
- 7. The Theme “Mom’s
Milk: Made Just for Me!”
conveys the unique proper-
ties of breastmilk.
Breastmilk composition
will be different for a pre-
mature baby than for a full
term baby, changes from
the beginning to the end of
the feeding, and changes as
baby gets older. The most
dramatic change is from the
early milk, which is thick,
to the later milk which is
thinner. Although the first
milk may seem like a small
amount, WIC programs are
sharing that “Mom’s first
milk is the right amount for
my tiny tummy.” By feed-
ing only breastmilk, mom’s
milk supply adjusts to meet
the needs of the baby – one
baby, or even twins or
triplets. Babies don’t need
any other foods until they
are about 6 months old.
There is much to cele-
brate in Sibley County.
• The majority of Min-
nesota women breastfeed.
In 2013 over seventy seven
percent of WIC participants
initiated breastfeeding. In
Sibley County, over 74 per-
cent of women initiated
breastfeeding in 2013.
• There are many places
for women to obtain infor-
mation about and support
for breastfeeding, including
local WIC programs
throughout the state. Addi-
tional sources of informa-
tion can be found by calling
1-877-214-BABY
• Women are excited
about breastfeeding. Here
are comments shared re-
cently by Minnesota moms:
“The way he looks into
my eyes while nursing, the
love you can feel...it's inde-
scribable. It makes me feel
like I am a super hero, pro-
viding this wonderful thing
for my baby. It’s something
that only I can do.”
“I love the bond with my
babies and it’s just plain
easier.”
• And from a mom who
had some initial challenges:
“If you have goals, stick
to them. If you are strong
about your wishes when it
comes to breastfeeding, you
can accomplish those
goals! . . .trust that what
you're doing for your baby
has benefits that will last a
lifetime.”
• Dads, grandmothers
and others are increasingly
aware of the importance of
breastfeeding and of the
important roles they play in
supporting breastfeeding,
and in their child’s life.
While most people know
of the importance of breast-
feeding for the health and
development of the child,
less well known is the im-
portance of breastfeeding to
mothers. In addition to the
closeness to their infant and
the knowledge that breast-
milk is something that only
they can provide their baby,
research suggests that not
breastfeeding can increase
a woman’s chance of some
cancers, type 2 diabetes,
and even heart attacks.
Please help WIC spread the
word that breastfeeding is
important for both mother
and child.

can be reached at 507-237-
4000.
