St. John’s Lutheran
Church, Arlington Township,
will celebrate the 100th an-
niversary of its church build-
ing on Sunday, Sept. 20.
There will be a regular sched-
uled 9 a.m. Bible Study and
10 a.m. service with a meal
following at 11:30 a.m.
St. John’s was organized in
1859 and built a church in
1877. On Jan. 25, 1915, a
special meeting was held
where it was resolved to build
a new church. The building
committee consisted of Paul
Roehler, Andrew Meyer,
Martin Nagel, George Gren-
hagen and Fred Lieske, Jr.,
names still familiar in the
area today.
On Feb. 28, 1915, it was
decided to build a brick struc-
ture at a cost of $10,633. The
church bells purchased in
1892 were transferred to the
new steeple and are still used
today. The large and small
bells weigh 2,400 and 2,000
pounds each.
The building was complet-
ed in one year and dedicated
on May 21, 1916 with the
debt paid in full. The current
organ was also purchased that
year.
In 1919, the old church
building was sold for $425
and the money used to pur-
chase new storm windows for
the current building.
During the early 1920’s,
the building had the “Delco
system” installed with lights
soon after. Telephones fol-
lowed in 1936 and electricity
received from REA in 1939.
In 1944, the day school build-
ing was destroyed by fire so
the church basement was re-
modeled to house the stu-
dents. For the centennial cele-
bration held in 1959, the
church was refurbished ex-
tensively with the main sanc-
tuary done by local contractor
Ralph Soeffker and basement
redone by members of the
church.
A front entry was built in
1978 and the kitchen remod-
eled in 1988. The main sanc-
tuary was completely redone
prior to the 150th anniversary
celebrated in 2009.
The country church, stand-
ing along State Highway 19
between Henderson and Gay-
lord, is a reminder of God’s
blessing to the early German
immigrants and through the
years to the present congrega-
tion.

Sloppy play during
first week as NFL
season gets underway
Our View: Play the starters more in the
preseason or lower exhibition ticket prices
Letters To The Editor
Superintendent’s Note Pad
Football fans around the country witnessed sloppy play
and poor officiating in many games as the National Football
League began its regular season during the past week.
The Minnesota Vikings and San Francisco 49ers game
was a prime example on Monday night, Sept. 14. The
game, especially in the first half, was filled with a variety of
mistakes made by both teams. An obvious pass interference
call, which was not called in the end zone, was also part of
the clown show in the first half.
There is an obvious reason for the sloppy play by many
teams during the first week. Head coaches do not play their
starters very much during the preseason. NFL teams want to
protect their starters, especially their superstars, from major
injuries prior to the start of the regular season. The Vikings,
for example, did not play running back Adrian Peterson
during the preseason even though he had missed 15 games
in the 2014 season due to legal reasons. The move back-
fired as Peterson rushed for only 31 yards on 10 carries.
Timing, execution and pride were the trademarks for NFL
teams during the preseason years ago. The trend now is for
teams to sit players and avoid major injuries in the exhibi-
tion games.
The new trend has caused another issue in the NFL. Fans
still have to pay the same price for preseason tickets as they
do for regular season games. The same price for preseason
tickets allows fans to not only watch starters and superstars
sit on the bench, but view the performance of unknown
players who in most cases will not even make the team.
The NFL is all about its TV contracts, corporate sponsor-
ships and overpaid players. The average fan is of little im-
portance.
If the NFL truly cares about its fans, the right thing to do
is for teams to play their players more during the preseason
or lower the price of exhibition tickets.

An eight year old boy is walking
down the road one day when a car
pulls over next to him.
“If you get in the car,” the driver
says, “I’ll give you $10 and a piece
of candy.”
The boy refuses and keeps on
walking.
A few moments later, not to take
no for an answer, the man driving
the car pulls over again. “How about
$20 and two pieces of candy?”
The boy tells the man to leave him
alone and keeps on walking.
Still further down the road the
man pulls over to the side of the
road.
“OK,” he says, “this is my final
offer. I’ll give you $50 and all the
candy you can eat.”
The little boy stops, goes to the
car and leans in. “Look,” he says
to the driver. “You bought this
ugly station wagon when everyone
else got cool SUVs, Dad, but that
doesn’t mean I have to be seen rid-
ing in it!”
*****
A young man was visiting a psy-
chiatrist, hoping to cure his eating
and sleeping disorder.
“Every thought I have turns to my
mother,” he told the psychiatrist.
“As soon as I fall asleep and begin
to dream, everyone in my dream
turns into my mother. I wake up so
upset that all I can do is go down-
stairs and eat a piece of toast.”
The psychiatrist replied, “What,
just one piece of toast for a grow-
ing boy like you?”
*****
The children had all been pho-
tographed, and the teacher was try-
ing to persuade them each to buy a
copy of the group picture.
“Just think how nice it will be to
look at it when you are all grown up
and say, ‘There’s Jennifer, she’s a
lawyer,’ or ‘That’s Michael, he’s a
doctor.’”
A small voice at the back of the
room rang out, “And there’s the
teacher, she’s dead.”
*****
To The Editor,
Over the course of the state fair,
the Minnesota State Senate offered a
questionnaire to fair-goers asking
about legislative issues. Below is a
brief summary of the results.
• The most popular source of en-
ergy in efforts to reach carbon emis-
sion reduction goals was solar ener-
gy (35.18 percent)
• The majority of responses sup-
port limited public access to video
footage collected by law enforce-
ment with body cameras (62.1 per-
cent)
• Most individuals thought Min-
nesota residents should be automati-
cally registered to vote when they
apply for or renew a driver’s license,
unless they decline (70.25 percent)
• It was most commonly support-
ed that the early catch-and-release-
only season, that is currently limited
to bass, should not be expanded to
other game fish species (40.71 per-
cent)
• Almost half of survey responses
indicated support for legislation that
would require employers to provide
paid sick time for all employees
(47.79 percent)
• A vast majority believe high
school students should be required
to pass the same civics test immi-
grants must pass before being grant-
ed citizenship (75.66 percent)
• Over half of survey responses
opposed restoration of felons’ voting
rights after they have been released
from incarceration, but haven’t yet
completed their probationary period
(54.32 percent)
• Over one-quarter of those who
responded believe that if there is a
surplus in 2016, those funds should
be spent on improving infrastructure
needs, such as transportation (26.29
percent)
• A majority of respondents think
if a student cannot read at grade
level by the end of third grade, they
should be held back a year (59.49
percent)
• Most respondents were opposed
to lead ammunition for hunting and
believe it should be phased out
(63.86 percent)
• Over a quarter of those who re-
sponded believe an increase in the
gasoline tax is the best way to go
about funding projects that repair
our roads and bridges (29.2 percent)
• Over half of respondents believe
the law requiring immunizations for
children enrolled in public schools
should be changed to eliminate the
exemption for personal or religious
beliefs (59.34 percent)
• The primary source for acquir-
ing governmental/political informa-
tion among respondents comes from
newspapers (28.17 percent)
• Finally, most respondents be-
lieve their state legislators to be
“somewhat accessible” (38.34 per-
cent)
Although this survey provides an
interesting glance into the legislative
opinions of certain individuals, it is
an unscientific survey and an over-
whelming proportion of respondents
were from the metro area (81.37
percent), while only 13.04 percent
of those who responded are from
rural areas. So, when reviewing the
responses from this survey, it is im-
portant to take those numbers into
consideration as well. As always,
please do not hesitate to contact me
with any questions, thoughts, or
concerns.

Editor’s Note: Rural Green Isle
resident Jim Luskey submitted this
letter to be read at the recent Min-
nesota State Class C Amateur Base-
ball Tournament.
In the crowd today (Aug. 29)
cheering for the Irish is John Luskey
and Gene Herd. Both men played
for the Irish in the 1950’s.
John, along with brothers, Joe,
Kenny and Jim, also nephews, Tim
and Peter, played from 1950 to
2004.
Gene along with his brother, Don,
played from 1952. Both men are in
the Minnesota Amateur Baseball
Hall of Fame.
Gene’s son, Mark, starred for the
Irish as a great pitcher. Gene’s
grandson, Connor, is a gifted left
handed pitcher like his grandpa and
father.
Don’s three sons all played for the
Irish - John at second, a position his
Dad played; Mike, all positions and
holds the record for over 1,000 hits
in a great career of 25 years; James
was a very good pitcher; Mike’s
sons, Zach and Lucas, are wonder-
ful, talented players. James’ son,
Jacob, is following in the Herd fami-
ly tradition of proudly wearing the
Irish green and gold.

As school resumes Sibley East
Schools welcomed 1,220 K-12 stu-
dents into our buildings and class-
rooms. We are looking forward to a
wonderful year full of great educa-
tional and personal experiences for
all of our students.
Staff are working hard to continue
raising achievement for all students
and closing the achievement gaps
between students. The district has
committed to making sure our staff
receives the very best professional
development and training we can
provide. Many staff members en-
gaged in this training throughout the
summer and bring those experiences
into their classrooms with the goal
of continuing to focus on student
achievement.
Students come to us at many dif-
ferent stages of educational
progress, and social and emotional
development. It is the goal of Sib-
ley East schools to make sure our
students progress and grow through
the year and meet their individual
growth targets. When students grad-
uate we want them to be meeting
state standards and fully prepared to
take the next step in educational
and/or career paths.
I want to personally encourage
parents and guardians to engage in
their students’ learning and experi-
ences here at Sibley East. The U.S.
Department of Education outlines
excellent parent engagement strate-
gies in their publication Parent
Power Build the Bridge to Success.
The publication emphasizes that par-
ents make a difference by commit-
ting to eleven core principles; Be re-
sponsible-Accept your role as the
parent and make education a priority
in your home. Be committed- Once
you have begun to work with your
child, continue doing so throughout
the year. Be positive-Praise goes a
long way with children, especially
with those who struggle in school.
Provide positive feedback. Be pa-
tient-Show your child that you care
through your commitment and en-
couragement. Be attentive-Stop your
child immediately when bad behav-
ior appears. Show him or her what
to do and provide an opportunity to
do it correctly. Discipline should be
appropriate and consistent. Be pre-
cise-Provide clear and direct instruc-
tions. Be mindful of mistakes-
Record your child’s performance.
Look over all the work your child

The Sibley County Histori-
cal Society will hold its next
meeting at the Courthouse
Annex basement in Gaylord
at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22,
according to Sharon Haggen-
miller.
The speaker for the
evening will be Rhonda
Fochs who writes books
about “Lost Towns in Min-
nesota.” She describes how
these towns were created,
why they boomed, how they
came to be considered “lost”
and what remains if people
want to visit.
From the surrounding area
she has written about the lost
towns in McLeod and Meek-
er counties and hopes to do
the same about Sibley Coun-
ty.
The Sibley County Fair has
come and gone, but the dis-
plays in the SCHS building
were a popular stop for many
fair goers. Over 450 people
signed the guestbook. There
were many who did not sign.
Upon arriving, visitors were
able to talk to the Honls, of
Winthrop, about their bee
keeping business. They also
had visual aids which were
very interesting. Other dis-
plays were all kinds of jams
and jellies from Yesterday’s
Kitchen of Winthrop, and a
display about a sorghum
press by David Tesch, Hen-
derson. Members of the
SCHS made homemade bread
and homemade butter to sam-
ple with all of these toppings.
It seems that every year
the SCHS comes up with
some “What’s It” items to
bring along from its displays
at the museum. This year the
group brought a two-piece tin
pan to make a round loaf of
bread, a stove lid lifter, a jar
opener and a bee smoker.
This year’s winner was Joan
Rose, Henderson, who re-
ceives a one- year member-
ship to the SCHS.
The “Remembering Sibley
County Country Schools”
books have flown off the
shelf here at the museum.
There is a small limited
amount still available.
The Sibley County Histori-
cal Museum will continue to
stay open on Sundays from 2
p.m. to 5 p.m. through Octo-
ber. The museum will then
close but its office hours will
remain from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Tuesdays. Please call for a
genealogy appointment or
any other requests.
The SCHS is currently
making plans for a Christmas
program, Watch for more in-
formation in future news re-

The new power line, which
will connect Henderson and Ar-
lington to give Henderson cur-
rent and also supply the farmers
between the two towns is well
under construction at this time,
most of the poles being placed.
The work of stretching the wires
will be started soon.
Anyone would know that
there would be a reversal of
weather conditions just as the
county fair season opened up. It
would be a great boost for the
farmers if some of the fairs were
scheduled during midsummer
when rain is more needed.
The road signs purchased by
the Auto Club have arrived and
will be put up in the near future.
They will be a great help to mo-
torists.

ance community north of Ar-
lington have sustained heavy
losses in their poultry flocks in
recent weeks. Their poultry loss-
es are being visited by an animal
thought to be a lynx which kills
chickens and sucks their blood.
Wm Proehl, who has seen the
animal on several occasions and
describes it as a lynx, has so far
failed to get a shot at it. He has
lost 48 chickens to date. Alvin
Milbrandt has lost about 30,
John Jochum about 30 and Mar-
vin Mackenthun many more.

In observance of National
Home week the Enterprise pho-
tographer went out and took pic-
tures of the 14 homes either
being built now or recently com-
pleted. Twelve of these were
started in 1964 and are just now
receiving the finishing touches.
Two were started this year and
are not yet finished. Two others
are still in the basement stage.
Other building projects now
under construction in Arlington
are the new St. Mary’s Catholic
Church, the new Zion Lutheran
Church, the new post office in a
remodeled building on Main
Street, and a new 40x60 foot
building being put up by Nagel
Packing Company on the south
side of town. The new homes
pictured in the advertisement are
the homes of Raymond Som-
mers, Ronald Soeffker, Mrs
Clara Wallert, Alvin Sauter,
Bernard Boik. Gordon Koring,
Allen Beckmann, Milton Geis-
zler, Larry Sorenson, Gary Fis-
cus, Henry Matz, Arnold Grove,
and Harold Dubbels. The two
new homes still in the basement
stage are the Val Kill home and
a home being built by Ron Soef-
fker.
The installation of Pastor O.
H. Moll was held on Sunday at
St. John’s Lutheran Church in
Arlington township. The new
pastor will serve the St. John’s
congregation and the Centennial
Lutheran Church in Henderson.

The visiting Sibley East
varsity football team was
blanked by Mayer Lutheran
20-0 in Minnesota River
Conference action on Friday
night, Sept. 11.
Mayer Lutheran scored its
first touchdown on a 10-yard
touchdown pass from senior
Jack Chmielewski to senior
Karrington Boelke. The score
capped a 10-play, 65-yard
drive. Senior Charlie Menke
followed with the extra point
kick as the Crusaders grabbed
a 7-0 lead with 3:20 left in
the second half.
Sibley East, after the ensu-
ing kickoff, drove down to
the Mayer Lutheran 20-yard
line, but an interception halt-
ed the drive.
Sibley East senior Scott
Holmquist intercepted a pass
moments later as Mayer
Lutheran entered halftime
with a 7-0 lead.
The Wolverines, who did
not punt during the contest,
engineered some lengthy
drives in the first half, but
were unable to finish them.
The Crusaders scored their
next touchdown midway
through the third quarter
when junior Mitch Johnson
found the end zone on an 11-
yard run. Sibley East junior
Leighton Rose blocked the
extra point kick as the Cru-
saders had to settle for a 13-0
lead with 7:24 remaining in
the third quarter.
Sibley East sophomore
Holden Lindquist, on the en-
suing kickoff, returned the
pigskin deep into Mayer
Lutheran territory. The
Wolverines, however, were
unable to take advantage of
the long kickoff return.
Mayer Lutheran scored its
final touchdown quickly in
the final frame when
Chmielewski hit sophomore
Matt Menth with a 45-yard
scoring pass. Menke booted
the extra point kick as the
Crusaders increased their lead
to 20-0 with 6:52 left in the
fourth quarter.
The Wolverine offense
compiled 270 total yards in
the game.
Sophomore Kevin Durham
paced the ground game with
80 yards on 17 carries. Soph-
omore Jesus Rodriguez had
40 yards on 10 rushes while
junior Brody Bates and soph-
omore Gavin Bates added 5
and 21 yards respectively.
Gavin Bates, who suffered
two interceptions, completed
seven of 15 passing attempts
for 104 yards.
Holmquist caught four
passes for 67 yards while
Brody Bates had two recep-
tions for 37 yards. Durham
had one catch for no gain.
“We are still learning how
to finish drives against good
teams,” said Sibley East head
coach Chuck Hartman. “It's a
process. We are close, but
not there yet.”
Senior Christian Figueroa
registered four solo tackles,
two assisted tackles and one
quarterback sack while junior
Tanner Kurtzweg had six as-
sisted tackles, one solo tackle
and one quarterback sack.
Senior Travis Schmidt led the
defense with three solo tack-
les and seven assisted tackles
while junior Leighton Rose
recorded seven assisted tack-
les. Sophomore Jaden Po-
dratz tallied three solo tackles
and three assisted tackles
while Brody Bates had six as-
sisted tackles. Holmquist col-
lected two solo tackles, one
assisted tackle and one inter-
ception while junior Cody
Voight contributed three solo
tackles.
“On defense we got away
from playing disciplined ball
like we did versus Maple
River and GFW the last two
weeks,” said Hartman. “We
have to get back to that on
defense.”
The Wolverines, 1-2 over-
all, will host New Richland-
Heartland-Ellendale-Geneva
at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 18.

The Sibley East varsity
girls volleyball team was
edged by visiting Norwood
Young America 3-2 in a Min-
nesota River Conference
match played in Gaylord on
Thursday night, Sept. 10.
The Lady Wolverines, who
won the second and fourth
games 25-19 and 25-23 re-
spectively, dropped the first,
third and fifth games 25-19,
25-18 and 16-14.
Senior Megan Krentz
paced Sibley East with 20
kills, eight digs and five
blocks. Senior Katie Tuchten-
hagen dished out 20 set as-
sists and had 11 kills and two
ace serves while sophomore
Taylor Brinkman collected 28
set assists and three digs.
Senior McKayla Stumm con-
tributed 11 digs and eight
kills while freshman Rachel
Rettmann had six kills, four
set assists and two blocks.
Senior Kailey Geib, who con-
verted 26 of 27 serves with
two aces, recorded 13 digs
and five kills. Senior Sydney
Fogarty added 17 of 17
serves with two aces along
with nine digs and three kills.
“The match was just as
back and forth as the scores
indicate,” said Sibley East
head coach Chip Wolverton.
“NYA did a great job of bat-
tling through to the end of
each set, which kept pressure
on us to compete to try to fin-
ish them off.  Offensively,
they kept attacking which
helped keep us from setting
up anything on our side of the
court.  When we did have op-
portunities, we just couldn't
make the most of them,
which allowed them to set up
another attack.  It was a cycle
we couldn’t get totally out of
towards the end of set four
(in which we led 21-18) and
in set five (in which we led
13-10).”

The visiting Sibley East
varsity girls volleyball team
was swept by Glencoe-Silver
Lake 3-0 in non-conference
action on Monday evening,
Sept. 14.
The Lady Wolverines lost
the three games 25-12, 25-20
and 25-16 respectively.
Senior Katie Tuchtenhagen
converted eight of eight
serves with two aces, dished
out 13 set assists and record-
ed four kills. Senior Kailey
Geib converted nine of nine
serves and collected five digs
and four kills while sopho-
more Taylor Brinkman had
nine of nine serves and a
dozen set assists. Senior
Megan Krentz contributed 11
kills and five digs while sen-
ior Sydney Fogarty had nine
of nine serves with one ace.
Senior McKayla Stumm
recorded seven digs while
freshman Rachel Rettmann
added six kills.
“GSL has a really good
team,” said Sibley East head
coach Chip Wolverton. “They
were young last year and re-
ally came on at the end of the
season.  They have everyone
back and they are well
coached and really hustle on
the court.  They make very
few mistakes, so when we
make them on our side of the
net it becomes very costly.  I
look forward to possibly
playing them next Saturday at
our tournament and see if we
have better results.  I’m cer-
tain we' ll improve every
match as we get used to each
other on the court more and
more.”

Arlington Greys to host annual tournament
To help travelers plan their
fall hikes, bike rides, paddling
trips and scenic drives to coin-
cide as closely as possible
with peak color, staff at Min-
nesota state parks and recre-
ation areas will update an on-
line fall color finder every
Thursday, starting Sept. 10.
This online trip-planning
tool includes a map showing
where to find peak color
across the state, a link to fall
color programs and special
events, a slideshow and a
photo uploader that provides
an easy way for people to
share their favorite fall color
images.
“Current weather conditions
indicate we’re on track for a
great fall color year,” said Pa-
tricia Arndt, communications
and outreach manager for the
Department of Natural Re-
sources Parks and Trails Divi-
sion. “With the exception of
dry weather in northeastern
Minnesota, most of the state
has had close to or above-aver-
age precipitation, making for
healthy, green trees going into
fall. If we continue to have ad-
equate rainfall as nights be-
come longer, the autumn dis-
play should be spectacular.”
A lantern-lit hike at Itasca
State Park (Sept. 26), and a
guided bike ride along the
Luce Line State Trail (Oct. 10)
are just some of the many up-
coming programs naturalists
have planned.
These and other family-ori-
ented fall color programs are
listed in the 2015 “Fall Sam-
pler” brochure available at
Minnesota state parks and
recreation areas, at Twin Cities
libraries and at metro area out-
door retail stores. The DNR
Information Center will also
mail the brochure to anyone
who requests it. Fall programs
can also be found online.
Colors typically peak be-
tween mid-September and
early October in the northern
third of Minnesota, between
late September and early Octo-
ber in the central third, and be-
tween late September and mid-
October in the southern third
(which includes the Twin
Cities). Peak fall color typical-
ly lasts about two weeks, but
that can vary widely, depend-
ing on location, elevation and
weather. Trees at higher eleva-
tions are the earliest to show
color change.
For smart phone and tablet
users, the DNR offers fall col-
ors “to go” on a mobile fall
color finder integrated with
Google maps. To access the
mobile version, scan the QR
code at http://mndnr.gov/mo-
bile or visit the website and
bookmark the site.
For more information, con-
tact the DNR Information
Center by sending an email to
info.dnr@state.mn.us or by
calling 888-646-6367 be-
tween 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
Monday through Friday.
A vehicle permit is required
for entrance to Minnesota
state parks and recreation
areas. Anyone who purchases
a $5 one-day permit can ex-
change it for $5 off a year-
round permit later the same
day. Year-round permits, $25,
provide unlimited access to
all 75 Minnesota state parks
and recreation areas for a full
year from the month of pur-
chase.

last year at this time. Howev-
er, the 2015 pheasant index is
39 percent below the 10-year
average and 59 percent below
the long-term average. Habi-
tat loss continues to be the
main factor in a long-term de-
cline of the state’s pheasant
population, according to the
Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources.
“Habitat loss still poses se-
rious threats to pheasant pop-
ulations and other grassland
wildlife,” said Nicole Davros,
a DNR research scientist.
“The short-term increase is
good news that results from a
mild winter and relatively fa-
vorable weather during the
nesting season – conditions
that led to increases in the
roadside index for many
farmland wildlife game
species.”
Minnesota’s 2015 pheasant
season begins Saturday, Oct.
10, and ends Sunday, Jan. 3.
Roadside survey data
The DNR’s August road-
side survey for pheasants
showed a 33 percent increase
in the overall pheasant index
from 2014. This year ’s
statewide pheasant index was
40.7 birds per 100 miles of
roadside driven.
Weather and habitat are the
two main factors that drive
Minnesota’s pheasant popula-
tion trends. Weather causes
annual fluctuations in road-
side indices. Undisturbed
grassland habitat for nesting
and brood-rearing drives the
longer-term pattern.
All regions showed in-
creases in the roadside pheas-
ant index compared to 2014
except for the south-central
region, which stayed the
same as last year. The highest
pheasant counts by number of
pheasants were in the south-
west, west-central and east-
central regions, where ob-
servers reported 46 to 76
birds per 100 miles driven.
Looking at percentage in-
creases from 2014, the high-
est were in the central, east-
central, and southeast regions
with increases of 44 percent,
126 percent and 138 percent,
respectively. Hunters will
find good harvest opportuni-
ties in these areas.
Pheasant populations:
short-term gains, long-term
loss
“The relatively mild winter
and good nesting season con-
ditions have really helped our
pheasant population across
their range this year. It just
goes to show you how re-
silient these birds can be if
given the right conditions,”
said Davros, who oversees
the August roadside survey.
The loss of nesting habitat,
especially Conservation Re-
serve Program (CRP) acres,
is the primary reason there
has been a steady decline in
Minnesota’s pheasant harvest
since the mid-2000s.
Minnesota has lost 153,492
acres of CRP since last year
and greater than 247,000
acres of CRP since 2007.
Many more acres – likely
more than 495,000 acres –
could expire by 2018 if con-
tracts are not renewed or new
acres are not enrolled into the
program.
“The future trend for
pheasants, and all grassland-
dependent wildlife, does not
look good unless we can find
ways to keep habitat on the
ground,” Davros said.
Winter conditions and
survival
Good winter conditions led
to higher overwinter survival
of hens, which were up 32
percent from last year. Higher
winter hen survival means
more pheasant nests in the
spring.
One important indicator of
annual reproduction is the
number of broods observed
per 100 miles. The 2015
brood index increased 35 per-
cent from last year. The num-
ber of broods per 100 hens
increased 2 percent from
2014.
The average number of
chicks per brood was similar
to last year and the 10-year
average but was 14 percent
below the long-term average.
The median hatch date of
nests was June 9, which was
three days earlier than the 10-
year average and seven days
earlier than last year. Some
areas of the state received
above-average rainfall
amounts in May, which may
have delayed or interrupted
nesting attempts. However,
near-normal temperatures and
precipitation in June and July
were beneficial to nesting
birds and young chicks.
Monitoring pheasant popu-
lation trends is part of the
DNR’s annual August road-
side wildlife survey, which
began in 1955. DNR wildlife
managers and conservation
officers in the farmland re-
gion of Minnesota conduct
the survey during the first
half of August. This year’s
survey consisted of 170 25-
mile-long routes, with 151
routes located in the ring-
necked pheasant range.
Observers drive each route
in early morning and record
the number and species of
wildlife they see. The data
provide an index of relative
abundance and are used to
monitor annual changes and
long-term population trends
of pheasants, gray (Hungari-
an) partridge, eastern cotton-
tail rabbits, white-tailed
jackrabbits, mourning doves
and other wildlife.
The 2015 August Roadside
Survey report and a map of
pheasant hunting prospects
can be viewed and down-
loaded from
www.mndnr.gov/hunting/phe
asant. Also recorded in this
year’s survey:
The mourning dove index
increased 14 percent from
2014 but remained below the
10-year average and long-
term average.
The gray partridge index
increased 150 percent from
2014 but remained well
below the 10-year and long-
term averages.
The cottontail rabbit index
increased 36 percent from
2014 and was 34 percent
above the 10-year average
and 20 percent above the
long-term average.
The white-tailed jackrabbit
index was similar to last year
and remains at an historic
low.
The white-tailed deer index
was similar to 2014 and was
33 percent above the 10-year
average and 98 percent above
the long-term average.
During the 2015 pheasant
season that runs from Oct. 10
to Jan. 3, the daily bag limit
is two roosters through No-
vember, and it increases to
three roosters on Tuesday,
Dec. 1. The possession limit
is six roosters (increasing to
nine roosters on Dec. 1).
Shooting hours are 9 a.m. to
sunset.
Additional details are
available on the DNR web-
site.

Annual Green Isle Lions Tractor Pull
attracts many pullers and spectators
Enterprise photo by Kurt Menk
Green Isle resident Brian Oelfke was one of many participants in the annual Green Isle Lions Tractor Pull on Saturday, Sept. 12.
The Minnesota Crop
Progress & Condition re-
leased by the USDA National
Agricultural Statistics Service
for the week ending Septem-
ber 13th stated that Minneso-
ta’s corn acreage in or beyond
the dent stage, 19 percent of
the acreage was mature, eight
days ahead of last year but
two days behind the five-year
average. Corn condition rated
88 percent good to excellent.
Corn harvested for silage was
37 percent complete, almost
one week behind normal.
Forty-two percent of the soy-
bean acreage was dropping
leaves or beyond, nine days
ahead of last year and three
days ahead of normal. Soy-
bean condition rated 77 per-
cent good to excellent, down
slightly from the previous
week. With most of the dry
edible bean crop dropping
leaves or beyond, 47 percent
of the crop has been harvest-
ed, nine days ahead of aver-
age. Dry edible bean condi-
tion rated 70 percent good to
excellent Twelve percent of
the sugarbeet crop has been
lifted, two weeks ahead of av-
erage. Sugarbeet condition
rated 85 percent good to ex-
cellent.
Corn growers in Minnesota
may want to predict grain
yields prior to harvest in order
to help develop grain market-
ing and harvest plans. One op-
tion is to use a yield compo-
nent method originally devel-
oped by the Agricultural Engi-
neering Department at the
University of Illinois. These
yield components include
number of ears per acre, num-
ber of kernel rows per ear,
number of kernels per row,
and weight per kernel.
Final weight per kernel ob-
viously cannot be measured
until the grain is mature (ker-
nel black layer) and, realisti-
cally, at harvest moisture.
Consequently, an average
value for kernel weight, ex-
pressed as 80,000 kernels per
56 pound bushel, is used as a
proverbial “fudge factor” in
the yield estimation equation.
The equation originally used a
"fudge factor" of 90, but ker-
nel size has increased as hy-
brids have improved over the
years. Consequently, a “fudge
factor” of 75 to 85 is a more
realistic value to use today.
Crop uniformity greatly in-
fluences the accuracy of any
yield estimation technique.
The less uniform the field, the
greater the number of samples
that should be taken to esti-
mate yield for the field. Cal-
culate estimated grain yield
using the Yield Component
Method as follows:
• Count the number of har-
vestable ears in a length of
row equivalent to 1/1000th
acre. For 30-inch (2.5 feet)
rows, this equals 17.4 feet.
For other row spacings, divide
43,560 by the row spacing (in
feet) and then divide that re-
sult by 1000
• On every fifth ear, count
the number of kernel rows per
ear and determine the average.
Try to use a system such as
the fifth, ninth, and 13th ears
from one end of the row.
• On each of these ears
count the number of kernels
per row and determine the av-
erage. Then multiply each
ear's row number by its num-
ber of kernels per row to cal-
culate the total number of ker-
nels for each ear. (Do not
count kernels on either the
butt or tip of the ear that are
less than half the size of nor-
mal size kernels.)
• Yield (bushels per acre)
equals (ear number) x (aver-
age row number) x (average
kernel number) divided by
80* = bushels per acre
• Range in kernel number
per bushel based on growing
conditions: Excellent = less
than 75, Average = 75 to 85
and Poor growing conditions
= greater than 85
• Repeat the procedure for
at least four additional sites
across the field. Calculate the
average yield for all the sites
to estimate the yield for the
field.
For example, people can
evaluate a field with 30-inch
rows and counted 30 ears (per
17’ 5" = row section). Calcu-
late that the average number
of kernels per ear, based on
sampling the average of the
fifth, ninth, and 13th ears in
the sampling row, was 511.
The estimated yield for that
site would (30 x 511) divided
by 80, which equals 192

A benefit for Gaylord resi-
dent Brenda Sharp will be
held at the American Legion
Club in Gaylord from 4 p.m.
to 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19.
In May of 2014, Brenda
was diagnosed with Intrehep-
atic Cholangiocarcinoma, a
rare form of cancer which
originated in the bile duct and
spread to her liver. Since then
Brenda has been fighting this
cancer with aggressive
chemotherapy, diet and nutri-
tion, and positive attitude.
The cancer treatments have
taken an extraordinary toll on
her budget. The benefit is
being held to lighten the fi-
nancial burden for Brenda so
she can remain focused on
her health. All donations and
proceeds from this benefit
will be used exclusively to
help defray the costs of Bren-
da’s medical treatments.
The event will include
food; bake sale; silent auc-
tion; Team Brenda t-shirts,
cancer bracelets, rings and
magnets; wine cork pull; and
music by Bad Timing.
Donations to the Brenda
Sharp Benefit Fund can be
dropped off in advance with
Dan Uecker at the Hugville
office in Gaylord or mailed to
Dan Uecker, P.O. Box 715,
Gaylord, MN, 55334.
For more information,
please contact Julie Kahle at
507-237-2144 or Connie
Quast at 507-327-3003.

A Grief Support Group will
be meeting in the pastor’s of-
fice at St. Paul’s Lutheran
Church in Arlington begin-
ning at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday,
Sept. 22.
To understand and to help
get through grief and loss, St.
Paul’s Lutheran Church is of-
fering Grief Support Group
meetings to anyone in the
community - free of charge.
It is recognized that grief can
be due to any number of loss-
es, such as the loss of a loved
one, loss of a job, divorce,
miscarriage, declining health,
and the like. During these
meetings information is given
based on what the Bible tells
us about coping with grief and
loss. These meetings will be
held on Tuesday evenings
from Sept. 22 through Oct.
27.
People interested in attend-
ing can simply contact one of
the facilitators: Don Koch
(964-5452); Karen Archer
(964-5974); Darrell Hamblin
(507-380-8639) or St. Paul’s
Church office (964-2731).
People can also email
don.koch@stpaularlington.co
m.
St. Paul’s Lutheran Church
is located at 101 West Chan-
dler Street in Arlington. Peo-
ple attending should enter
through the south doors by the
small parking lot of the
church.
