Much needed rain fell in the area
Sunday. Reports ranged from two to

"Good News When Times Are
Hard" was the title of Richard Cox's
message at the Christian Church on
Sunday morning. His selected scrip-
ture reading was Acts 9:32-43. This
portion of scripture tells of two indi-
viduals, one who was cured of being
lame and another who was brought
back to life. This happened through the
power of prayer as Peter ministered to
them. It also brought others to believe
in Christ Jesus as the news reached the
people of the area. Hard times are not
new. Times of trouble and tribulation
are as common as the sun rising each
morning. Living in obedience to God
does not mean we will not have
troubles. However, it does mean that
we are not alone when we go through
them. God does not abandon us in the
trials of our lives. God can use our
difficult times to bring others to Christ
and to draw them to know the love of
God.

Once again, we are experiencing a
lack of moisture to begin the spring. I
pulled some numbers from KSU's
Weather Data Library April 10. Since
the first of the year, the weather sta-
tions located in our district recorded
precipitation as follows: Jewell County
1.39 inches, Osborne County 1.42
inches and Mitchell County 2.14
inches. A good practice to be prepared
for a potential year of subpar moisture
is to develop a drought management
plan for your operation.
What should go into a drought man-
agement plan? The first thing that
should be included in your plan is,
deciding your stocking rates for turn
out. We would all like to be able to
guess the exact amount of forage that
will be grown and the right amount of
cattle to graze it. Unfortunately, we
can't predict the future very well.
Therefore, stocking pastures moder-
ately is a safe practice. Set stocking
rates on grazable acres, not total acres.
In pastures some areas will be utilized
more heavily than others. Distance from
water, soil types, topography and other
factors affect how willingly cattle graze
in a given area. Cattle generally do not
graze pastures evenly. Take this into
account and set your acres per cow
based on the expected forage produc-
tion and number of acres they will use,
not total acres.
Next is determining which pastures
to go to first. Different parts of the
plant do not grow simultaneously. They
are all competing with one another for
products of photosynthesis such as
starch and sugar. Growth of plant parts
is reduced or delayed when green leaf
area is removed. Grazing pastures ev-
ery year at the same time, when root
growth, bud formation, stolon growth
of rhizome growth is seasonally most
rapid, reduces subsequent year forage
production potential of most mid and
tall season grasses. Bottom line, mix
up your grazing rotations so you are
not grazing the same pastures at the
same time year after year. This will
help increase plant vigor and the
sustainability of your pastures.
Part of your plan should include
critical management dates. As cattle
graze and we do or do not get appropri-
ate rainfall for sustained forage growth,
set critical management dates to make
decisions. For example, if by June 15
we have received less than 80 percent
of our annual precipitation, decrease
stocking rates by 30 percent, which
means early weaning. On Aug. 15, if
July and August precipitation totals
are less than 70 percent of normal, we
will end grazing the first of September
and begin to dry lot cattle. Different
operations will have different criteria
for establishing these dates and for
modes of actions to combat the dry-
ness.
No two ranches are the same and no
two ranch drought plans are either.
Take the time now to calmly think of
what you will do in response to drought
issues in the future. It is not a matter of
if we will experience a dry year, but are
you prepared for a dry year?
Company banned
from telemarketing,
fined in Kansas
A New York based company has
agreed to pay $10,000 in penalties and
fees to settle allegations that it imper-
sonated a local agricultural co-op and
violated the Kansas No Call Act, ac-
cording to Derek Schmidt, attorney
general.
Carso, Inc., doing business as Sup-
ply House, Coating and Chemicals and
Jack Caratozzolo, all of New York
state, agreed to a consent judgment
ordering them to pay $10,000 in inves-
tigative fees and civil penalties. The
judgment was approved earlier this
...... month by Judge Franklin Theis in
,Sha~rtee:County District_C- ~tu~ .......
In 2014.the attorney general's of-
fice received multiple complaints from
Kansans who had received
telemarketing calls from the company.
The callers identified themselves as
representatives of "Farmway," which
is a local Kansas cooperative with no
connection to the defendants or the
alleged telephone calls. The callers
were trying to sell agricultural chemi-
cals.
Under terms of the settlement, the
defendants are prohibited from
misidentifying themselves to Kansas
consumers and are banned from future
telemarketing in Kansas.
Kansans who wish to register for
the Do-Not-Call list or file a complaint
should visit the attorney general' s con-
sumer protection website at
