August 9, 2013© 2013

The American Enterprise Institute andthe Heritage Foundation are two well-established, politically-conservativeWashington, D.C., think tanks.

How conservative are they?Let’s just say that if the Environmental

Working Group and the Center for Bud-get and Policy Priorities are the espressoand brie of Washington, D.C., policy cen-ters, AEI and Heritage are their red meatand cabbage counterparts.

Both are also rich, strongly pro-businessand not shy to call most government pro-grams too big and every tax cut too small. They areloyal, diligent and tough.

Those traits should make Heritage and AEI near-perfect allies of politically conservative, small-gov-ernment favoring ag groups who work Capitol Hill.

Not so. AEI and Heritage have raisedenough questions and thrown up enoughroadblocks to effectively keep any 2013farm bill rewrite corralled in the House ofRepresentatives until either the cowscome home or it is put in the kettle ofwhat is brewing to be a very bloody fed-eral budget-debt limit stew this fall.

That’s exactly where farm bill backersdidn’t want to be and, yet, a tea-poweredHeritage Foundation and pro-free marketAEI have rallied House friends and foesalike to place ’em there.

They had help. Club for Growth, a hugefunder of tea-party Republican conservatives in Con-gress (and financial backer of challengers to thoseRepublicans it deems not conservative enough)

With friends like these, who needs a farm bill?

“What happens at the fair, stays at the fair.”These were my first thoughts as I read

a press release The Land received theother day from the Minnesota StateFair, titled “New Foods for 2013.”

I’m fairly certain that no one has everexclaimed “Hey, let’s go to our state fair sowe can eat sensible portions of incrediblyhealthy food!” but my already-medicatedarteries cringed a bit as I read aboutsome of the tasty new dining options thisyear in Falcon Heights...

• Candied Bacon Cannoli (Ole’s Can-noli) — “The ultimate sweet-savorycombo: chewy, carmelized bacon piecespaired with Ole’s sweet, smooth ricottacheese filling in a fried, crunchy pastry shell”

• Cocoa Cheese Bites (Axel’s) — “Wisconsin ched-dar cheese nuggets breaded with cocoa puffs, friedand served with a chocolate dipping sauce”

• Double Bacon Corndog (Campbell’s FlavoredCorndogs) — “Bacon-wrapped hot dog dipped in acorndog batter blended with real bacon bits thendeep fried”

• Fried Pickles ‘n’ Chocolate (Preferred Pickles) —“Deep fried pickles dusted with powdered sugar andserved with a side of chocolate for dipping”

• Wine Glazed Deep Fried Meatloaf (MinnesotaWine Country) — “Homemade meatloaf deep fried ona stick with a red pepper wine glaze”

Naturally, moderation is key when dealing with such

dietary extravagance. The vendors them-selves probably wouldn’t advise you to eat attheir stands every meal for all 12 days of thefair. Our friends at the state pork producer,cattlemen, and dairy groups will even tell youto throw in a green salad once in awhile.

I think.On my family’s recent week-long Texas

vacation we spent — according to my wife’spost-trip accounting — nearly $50 per personper day on the most delicious, decadent andsavory BBQ, sweet teas, desserts and coffees

we could cram into our fat Yankee faces.I’m not sure what’s more worrisome: how

much cash we dropped on food, or what mycardiologist is going say at my next checkup.

Money-wise it sort of evens out, as we drove our ownvehicle there and back, saving on airline and rental carcosts. Cholesterol-wise, I’m pretty much screwed.

At President Lyndon Johnson’s ranch in centralTexas we saw the amphibious car he would use totest the fortitude of visitors. Taking them on a tour ofhis ranch, LBJ would head straight toward the riverthat cut through his property. Yelling “We’ve got nobrakes!” he’d drive right into the water. The trick car,of course, traversed the river just fine, and if you’dkept your cool, you were cool with the President.

LBJ would want you to eat a Double Bacon Corndogat the fair. I won’t tell anyone, and neither will he.

GUEBERT, from pg. 2joined Heritage to undermine theHouse version of the farm bill in June.

Heritage then kept up the attackand, according to most farm billwatchers, was the intellectual forcebehind House GOP leaders’ July moveto separate the two traditional ele-ments of all modern farm bills, farmsupport programs and food assistance,for stand-alone votes.

After it got the vote it sought — thefarm programs-only bill narrowlypassed July 11 with just Republicanvotes — Heritage blew its top. The veryreason to split farm programs from foodprograms, it insisted, had been “wasted”by “the passage of this bill” that con-tained no farm program reform.

In fact, Heritage foamed, GOP leaders“made this bill even worse — by sneakychanges … so that some of the costliestand most indefensible programs nolonger expire after five years …”

And, it went on, “It would spendmore money than Obama on thelargest farm program, crop insurance.”

Club for Growth was even angrier:The bill looked like “a ‘rope-a-dope’exercise (where) House leadership

(can) get to conference with the Senate(for) … a backroom deal to reassemblethe commodity and food stamp titles …leaving us back where we started —with no path … to remove govern-ment’s involvement in the agricultureindustry.”

AEI lambasted both the Senate andHouse farm bills and did it mostlythrough the melodious voice and razorsharp words of Vincent H. Smith, a pro-fessor of economics at Montana StateUniversity and co-director of the uni-versity’s Agricultural Marketing PolicyCenter.

Smith, an AEI Visiting Scholar, hasbeen devastating in his perfectly logi-cal, perfectly phrased analyses of 2013farm legislation. In a July 17 blog post— at http://www.aei.org — Smith evis-cerated all who even glanced at anypart of the bill:

“The real puz-zle is why anyHouse representative, Republican orDemocrat … would have voted for the2013 House farm bill.

“The answer leads back to thewealthy farmers, insurance companies,and agri-business lobbies that benefitmost from farm programs, and theirinfluence in farm-heavy districts. Theywanted to preserve and expand agricul-tural entitlement programs that pay

their constituents billions ...”Wow; some friends, eh?But these groups do practice what

they preach — limited government,less taxes and a hatred of federally-subsidized farm programs, especiallycrop insurance.

Still think you’re going to get afarm bill by the time the budget

brawl breaks out Oct. 1? If so, have atall iced tea and think about whetheror not you could live with some varia-tion of a two-year extension of the cur-rent law.

If it’s offered, consider it a gift …from your friends.

Fair time is winding down aroundthe state, and with each passing year Iam amazed at the number of kids whoput the time in to take animals to thecounty fair.

It’s usually the sheep show thatentertains me the most. Some sheephave been worked with so much thatthey could practically be present atthe family table on a chair instead of aplatter. Others have to be dragged inand out of the show ring, head down

and feet dug in, skidding all the way inand out. It’s reminiscent of taking myhusband to the dentist, except for that“skidding out” part.

Our boys decided one winter theywanted to take goats to our fair. Ourfarm at the time was indigenous tosheep, and as livestock went, had onlyotherwise seen hogs (not counting themouse sightings in the house from timeto time). My husband really didn’twant to start raising goats, but told

them that if they could findsomewhere to put them,they could do it.

It was the last anyone hadever spoken about it — thatis, until the day of springweigh-ins. My husband wason the committee, and washelping at the scale. Some-one backed a trailer up tothe barn and unloaded somegoats, and was talking to myhusband as if they belongedto our sons. Of course myhusband disagreed, never having seenthem before.

Enter our two (then) high schoolsons, who showed up to help unload thetrailer. Turns out the goats were theirsindeed — and there was even a thirdone that belongedto a friend oftheirs. They’d beenkeeping them atthe neighbor’sinstead of findinga place for them athome.

They reallypulled one over ontheir dad, andeveryone got agood laugh out ofit.

By fair time, thegoats were need-ing to be groomed.Never having done this before, our boysgot the clippers out and went to work.The first goat (belonging to theirfriend, who was there with them)received somewhat of an Army-style’do. The first pass — right down themiddle of its back — was pretty short;almost down to the skin. After beinghorrified at their first pass at barber-ing, they conferred extensively anddecided there was no hiding or fixing it,and that there was nothing else to dobut to groom the rest of the goat in thatsame fashion.

Oh, the humiliation of that goat, hav-ing to go streaking at the fair in frontof the judge.

They paid more attention to the clip-per adjustments on their own twogoats, and continued on. When the dayof the goat show arrived, all three tooktheir goats out into the show ring —the only goats of the show, wouldn’t youknow.

The guys stood nervously in front of

the judge, thinking aboutthe bad clip job on theirfriend’s goat, and feelingbad about it. They werelined up according to thejudge’s approval, and hepicked up the microphone.Though he said many thingsabout their goats, the onlything we remembered hear-ing was that he really likedthe way (their friend’s) goatwas groomed. Our familywas all trying to suppressour laughter — in the show

ring and in the stands alike.It’s never been our style to have done

something wrong, and still have it beright. The next year, another friend oftheirs also had a goat and came over tohave it groomed during the week of the

fair. Our sons gotout their clippersonce again — nowthat they knewwhat they weredoing — and setup for the job.

When our sontook the halter offof the goat, it tookoff running fullspeed aheadacross the pen asthey had all donecountless times.They usuallystopped just short

of the wall and would turn around.This one didn’t remember to stop, andran head first into the cement wall.

The wall won.“It was the damnedest thing I ever

saw,” our son said, adding that theywere all stunned at what had justoccurred right before their eyes … andjust days before the fair.

That goat was probably a kamikazepilot in a previous life … or maybe justa scapegoat. Either way, it really gottheir goat.

On the other hand, maybe anythingwas better to that goat than the fear ofappearing nearly naked before a crowdof scrupulous onlookers. There’s morethan one way to skin a goat.

Well, kind of.Karen Schwaller brings “Table Talk”

By TIM KINGThe Land Correspondent

CUSHING, Minn. — For $15 you can buy aone-day license and try your hand at harvest-ing Minnesota’s state grain, wild rice.

You’ll need a canoe, or narrow boat, thatdraws very little water. You’ll need a partnerand you’ll need a push pole. You’ll also wanttwo flails to bring the rice into the canoe.

Law determines the size of everything,except your partner.

In 2006, 1,625 people purchased either dayor seasonal licenses from the MinnesotaDepartment of Natural Resources. Thoselicense holders gathered 700,000 pounds ofwild rice from lakes and rivers in central andnorthern Minnesota, according to the DNR.

By law, the harvest begins in mid-Augustand ends the last day of September. Duringthe season harvesting is allowed between 9a.m. to 3 p.m. Although wild rice is harvestedin over 25 Minnesota counties, most of that2006 harvest came out of Aitkin, St. Louis,Itasca, Crow Wing and Cass counties in northcentral and northeast Minnesota.

Roger Pietron, and his family, harvest theirrice in the lakes and rivers in Cass, CrowWing, and Todd counties.

Harvesting wild rice can be hot, sweaty, and gruel-ing work. But Pietron prefers to be in the stern of acanoe, in the midst of a rice bed, that time of yearmore than just about any other place in the world.

“I started harvesting wild rice about 45 yearsago,” Pietron said. “There was a period of time that Ilived in Alaska but otherwise I’ve never missed aseason.”

Pietron is an unusual harvester, according to the

DNR. Most rice harvesters use their rice for personaluse. Only 2 percent of the 1,625 harvesters in 2006collected over 2000 pounds. Pietron and his familyare among that small group of big harvesters.

The Pietron family, along with some friends, setsup rice camp near a Minnesota lake at the beginningof the season. They spend the next weeks harvestingand curing the grain.

Crews of two people head out into the dense beds.The person in the stern of the canoe is the push poleoperator. That person is in charge.

The push pole operator cannot be distracted by thebeauty of waterfowl flying out of the rice bed, GilQuaal warned in a KAXE Grand Rapids radio essayon ricing a number of years ago. They must push thecanoe into the best rice. To do so they must con-stantly be studying the broad plain of rice in front of

them. They must study its mosaic of color,density, and height in order to maximize theharvest. They must also stay out of the shal-lows and, when exiting the rice bed andentering the lake, minimize time and effortas they come about to reenter the rice. Aboveall, they should stay in the canoe.

“You have an agreement when you go out.That is, if you think you’re going to fall, youjump out. You don’t want to capsize the canoe.I remember one time when I fell in,” Pietronsaid. “It was real windy that day. I had justcome out of the bed into the lake. I was turn-ing to go back in and had just got started in itand boom, I got hit by a big gust of wind.”

Pietron has spent most of his years on theend of a push pole in a dry condition. So hepuzzled for some time over his dunking.

“It took me about a year to understand whythat happened,” he said. “I finally realizedthat some grains of rice had gotten under myfeet. They all got aligned and they were likelittle rollers. All of a sudden I had no footing atall. At the time, I was just starting to push.”

Pietron recalls another dunking. This timehe was the beater.

“A friend of mine was on push pole,” Pietronsaid. “I heard a loud splash. I thought it was a beaverslapping its tail. I turned around and her head wasjust coming above the water. She went out sosmoothly she didn’t rock the canoe.”

The second person in the canoe, the beater, sitsimmediately in front of the push pole operator. Thebeater uses two flails to bring the rice into the canoe.The beater has no view beyond the rice stalks infront of them. For hours on end they pull the ricestalks over the canoe with one flail and remove itwith the other.

Quaal, the radio essayist, calls beating repetitionad infinitum. But, he says, there is music and beautyto beating when the rice is falling heavy and build-ing up in the canoe. The wisdom of rice is such thatall grains fall one way. As rice fills the canoe it beginsto have the appearance of a green bear pelt, he says.

Once the canoe is full, the rice is taken to camp andlaid out on a tarp to cure. Curing is a somewhat deli-cate process that keeps the green rice from dryingout or from getting moldy. Some harvesters put theirgreen rice in bags right after they harvest it. Thatcan cause it to get moldy.

The Pietrons lay the rice out, in windrows, on a tarp.Then, from time to time, they turn it. They don’t wantit to dry, however, so they occasionally moisten it.

“If it becomes too dry it makes it difficult to removethe husk,” Pietron said.

When they have enough for the processor they dobag it. At the processor’s they lay it out in windrowsagain. The processor removes the hulls from thegrain by heating it in a large clothes dryer-likemachine. That is known as parching. Then the grainis run through a fanning mill to separate the huskfrom the grain. Finally, it is put through screens tosort it by size and to remove any debris. ❖

“Because my ancestors wereinvolved in the Dakota War of Sep-tember 1862, I decided to researchthe history of this notable Min-nesota event, because so many peo-ple weren’t getting it right.” That’sthe straightforward comment ofJohn LaBatte, descendent ofDakota and Whites. Wasicun Nazin is his Dakotaname.

Retired in 1988 from a computer programmercareer, LaBatte now lives in New Ulm, Minn., and isdoing presentations on the Dakota conflict simply tocorrect the misleading commentary of others who,perhaps because of lack of history, are improperlysharing “the rest of the story.”

He’s particularly informed on the farming historyof the Dakota Indians, relating that the Dakota Indi-ans were caretakers of the soil.

“It was said that many of the Dakota farmers wereas good or better than the neighboring white farm-ers. Corn (called maize in those days) was their pri-mary crop but wheat, potatoes, turnips, rutabagas,oats and onions also were grown by the Indian farm-ers. Plus they had communal gardens, each villagewithin a subgroup of a tribe,” he said. Of course theIndians were also good at gathering wild food suchas turnips and the various berries, however huntingwas their primary food source before the whites.

History doesn’t detail the size of those early Indianfarms. LaBatte suggested perhaps no more than fiveto 10 acres per farm. “The government would breakthe prairies for them with special breaking plows,and would then provide seed and teach them how togrow these crops, provide for livestock and even howto build houses,” he said.

He explained this was part of the treaty processestablished by the government, hoping the NativeAmericans would become farmers like the white set-tlers and, in the process, become self-sufficient. If

Dakota wanted to become farmers like the whites,the United States built them a house, provided live-stock and helped get them started. By 1862, therewere about 250 Dakota families on farms.

According to LaBatte the 1851 treaties providedannuities to the Indian people for 50 years with thehope that during this time many would turn to farm-ing. He said the treaties were very generous, veryhelpful in terms of providing food, housing, seed forgetting crops on their farms, livestock, blacksmithservices, carpenters, doctors, and teachers.

Why these actions? Because the U.S. governmentrecognized these Indian communities as sovereignnations so treated them as they would other foreigncountries. But the reality is that the Indians wereonly about as sovereign as the government wouldpermit them to be.Dakota, Lakota and Nakota

LaBatte explained that at one time virtually theentire Sioux nation lived in the Mille Lacs Lakearea. The Sioux who migrated farthest to the westbecame known as the Lakota. The Sioux who stayedin the Minnesota area are the Dakota. The Siouxbetween the Lakota and the Dakota are the Nakota.

As they grew, the western Sioux — meaning theDakota, Lakota and Nakota — moved away from the

Mille Lacs area; the Dakota traveling southwardalong the Mississippi River toward Winona andPrairie Du Chien, to more easily do business withthe fur traders. Unrest between the Ojibwa andDakota tribes eventually resulted in all of theDakota Indians leaving the Mille Lacs area. Mean-while the Lakota and Nakota tribes were movingwest with the buffalo herds.

LaBatte said the first treaty between the UnitedStates and the Dakota Indians was in 1805. In1829, one Dakota village was introduced to theEuropean or white method of farming. The 1837Treaty provided for government farmers to plowcommunal fields for each village and start teachingthe Indians how to farm as the whites.

“The government’s intentions were to show themabout farming and hope they would take it up andbecome mostly self-sufficient. But little progresswas made until the 1850s when more Indians weregoing out to start individual farms rather than com-munal farms,” said LaBatte. He thinks some ofthose Indians were beginning to see that farmingwas a better way of life but they still hunted andtrapped and gathered as communal groups.

But as they hunted beyond their reservationboundaries they were seeing more and more whitescompeting against them for the game. Not allwanted to farm; they preferred their hunting andcommunal life. However following the reservationera in Minnesota many of these Indians became

Dakota Indians were great caretakers of the soil

While the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862 lasted just six weeks, theissues surrounding its cause began years earlier and its aftermathstill affects Minnesota and the nation to this day.

Between 400 and 600 white civilians and soldiers and anunknown number of Dakota were killed. More than 300 Dakotahad initially been condemned to death, but President Lincolncommuted the sentences of 264 men to prison terms.

When the fighting ended, some Dakota fled west or into Canada.About 1,700 non-combatant Dakota and mixed-race people whosurrendered — mostly women, children and the elderly — wereheld over the winter of 1862-63 in an internment camp at FortSnelling, suffering severe hardship. As many as 300 died.

In 1863, those who survived were forcibly moved to reservationsin the Dakota Territory and what is now Nebraska. Punitiveexpeditions in 1863 and 1864 resulted in hundreds of Dakotabeing killed or forced further westward.

U.S.-Dakota War of 1862

DAKOTA, from pg. 15farmers in other places and on other reservations.

LaBatte questioned if there are any full-bloodedDakota Indians still living in Minnesota. “On thereservations of Lower Sioux, Upper Sioux, PrairieIsland and Shakopee there used to be Indian farm-ers but I think now casinos have replaced theincentive to farm for some.”“Understand and move on”

He questioned whether the U.S. government hasan ongoing indebtedness to the Indian nation.

“We need to understand what happened and thenwe need to move on,” said LaBatte. “We shouldn’t beapologizing. There shouldn’t be reparations. Every-body talks about the broken treaties but no oneseems to remember that in the 1900s there were aseries of law suits again the United States govern-ment by the Dakota Indians and in the 1970s theDakota descendants of those in Minnesota werepaid settlements. The U.S. government recognized itdidn’t do things right so payments were made to allenrolled Minnesota Dakota descendants. “This wasmoney none of the Tribal members expected becausethis law suit had been going on for so many years.”

A new monument in Mankato was dedicated thispast December to the 38 Sioux that were hangedon Dec. 26, 1862, the largest mass execution in U.S.history. Runners and horseback riders came

together in Mankato and agreed that their mantrashould be: Forgive everyone, everything. The run-ners came from Fort Snelling; the riders were fromSouth Dakota. The movie “Dakota 38” — availableon YouTube at bit.ly/dakota38 — portrays this par-ticular event according to LaBatte.

“It’s important to know that this history is compli-cated,” he said. “Unfortunately to me there arepoliticians who are not historians but are revisingthis history; embellishing it to make it worse. Thetruth was sad enough but needs to be shared aboutboth Whites and Indians; not just what happened tothe Indians after the Dakota conflict.”

LaBatte has written a booklet titled “Historic FortRidgely” which features 25 essays related to events ofthe Dakota War of 1862. His website ishttp://dakotawar1862.wordpress.com. For more infor-mation visit the Minnesota Historical Society’s web-site about the conflict at www.usdakotawar.org. ❖

The BrandtsAda, Minn.The Brandt farm

has been fortunate toavoid the deluge ofrain that areas allaround it receivedduring planting andearly growing season.But now DannyBrandt would like the rain to know it’swelcome at his farm. “We could use ashot of rain,” he said.

When The Land spoke to Brandt onJuly 22 he noted that it’s “starting toget dry around here.” The farmreceived just over two-tenths of aninch of rain in the last month. Thegood news, though, is that there was achance of rain in the forecast for theremainder of the week.

Corn is tasseling and starting to silk.In terms of moisture “for what it’s gonethrough it still looks pretty good,”Brandt said. This year compared tolast year isn’t so different when itcomes to moisture, though 2012started off dryer. The corn did well lastyear so there’s optimism for similarresults with this year’s crop.

Beans are flowering and Brandtreports that most fields are lookinggood. “I haven’t seen any aphids yet.”The wheat crop is still two weeks awayfrom combining. It looks “prettydecent” with heads filling, although“I’m not looking for a monster wheatcrop,” he said.

On the hog front, there are four lit-ters in and Brandt was waiting on onemore, with 10 to 13 piglets in a litter.The fans and sprinklers are continuingto keep the animals comfortable —“They haven’t suffered at all,” he said.He checks on them four to five times aday to ensure they have adequatewater and are staying cool.

Brandt will soon begin to get thecombines ready and check on falltillage equipment. He’ll also be makingsure bins are cleared out. Harvest isnot too far away — hopefully contin-ued good weather and good soakingrains will help ensure a happy harvestat the Brandt farm.

The JohnsonsStarbuck, Minn.Scott Johnson looks no further than

his lawn to tell him how the corn isdoing. According to his lawn, his corncould use some rain.

When The Land spoke to Johnson onJuly 23, he reported that it had been

over two weeks sincethey received rain inthe area. The almostinch of rain they gotthen was good, he said,but it’s “starting to dryout a little.” Even withthe lack of neededmoisture the crops areprogressing well.

The corn is “pretty good, some earlystuff is starting to shoot up some tas-sels,” Johnson said. While it maybe alittle behind, it has “caught up quitewell.” The areas that had yellowedcorn “all kind of greened up.” The heatthat corn thrives on has eased up inthe Starbuck area this week and therewas a chance of rain expected through-out the upcoming weekend.

Their replant beans are “starting topop up pretty good,” he said and, ingeneral, beans are looking “prettydecent.”

He’s finished cleaning out the bins,and will start looking ahead at harvestpreparations. Looking at the cropswhere they stand, Johnson feels theyhave fared better than what he’dexpected earlier this season. While thisyear’s crop won’t be a bin-buster itshould be “close to average.” With thestart to the planting season so harshin the area, sometimes average is good.

The MessnersNorthfield, Minn.A little over 12 days ago, the Mess-

ner farm received three and a halfinches of rain in three to four hours.The area hasn’t seen rain since. This isjust another example of the challeng-ing growing season that Chris Mess-ner has faced. When The Land spoke to

him on July 25 henoted that the raindid cause some flood-ing, “but didn’t domuch to the crop.”Property around thearea received somedamage but the cropsfared well in thestorm.

Corn that was tippy two weeks agodue to wind has straightened out andis “starting to tassel.” For the mostpart Messner believes the crops looks“OK.” The concern is that the crop wasplanted late. “If we don’t look at thecalendar, the crop is good,” Messnersaid.

Corn height is normal for this time ofyear; it’s “made up a little moreground.” With cooler weather fore-casted for a few days, that may slowthe corn growth, and any slowing downat this point is discouraging. “We’re noton track by any means,” he said.

The beans Messner planted aremostly at the R2 stage with floweringand some pods coming along. He saidthere’s “potential for an average beancrop.” He will be spraying some of thebeans again — aphids have been spot-ted but they’re “not at a level you’reconcerned at.”

Messner has planted oats in the “pre-vent plant” areas in his fields. Somespots on their ground never gotplanted due to being too wet and nowhe’s trying to get in there to work thatground.

As the crops continue to grow Mess-ner feels he’s “got to at least be opti-mistic.” He warns, though, that “anearly frost would really be a bad thing.”

The LaubenthalsSwea City, IowaA week ago Charlie

Laubenthal wrappedup the 2013 plantingseason as he finishedplanting seed oats —a mind-bogglingthree months afterthe season began.When The Land spoke to Laubenthalon July 22, he was keeping busy onthe farm finishing projects before thestart of harvest that, unfortunately,will be here all too soon. Whetherfarmers in the area are ready for it ornot, fall is just around the corner.

Laubenthal said he is done sprayingbeans and is spraying his road ditchesand tree lines for weeds. He has putaway his planting machinery for theyear and continues to work on the hogbarns at the farm site with the goal ofcompleting them in a week. “We’resupposed to put pigs in the buildingsby mid-August.”

The corn in some of Laubenthal’sfields look good while others look likea “rollercoaster ride” — some higher,some lower. With the corn 50 percenttasseled Laubenthal estimates thecrop is “at least a couple weeksbehind.” Beans, meanwhile, are “com-ing around nice.”

The sandy soil areas are stressed dueto the lack of moisture; “an inch of rainwould be welcomed,” Laubenthal said.This season conditions in the area havegone from one to extreme to another —too much rain when trying to get thecrops in, to not enough moisture whengrowth is critical in the plants.

It’s not just the crops and pig buildingsthat keep Laubenthal busy in the sum-mer, but the community celebrationsand fairs as well. Next week he and hisfamily will head to Algona to attend theKossuth County Fair and cheer ondaughter Alexis as she competes in theKossuth County Fair Pageant.

The summer is in full swing with fallnot too far behind. Laubenthal is keepinghis sense of humor throughout this diffi-cult growing season:“We’ve never workedso hard to put in an ugly crop,” he said.

While the crop may not win anybeauty pageants, as long as it contin-ues to grow and conditions cooperate,Laubenthal may get something out ofthose fields yet. ❖

Grain AnglesPrepare for a

downward trendOver the past five years I’ve noticed grain produc-

ers are using a less-disciplined approach to grainmarketing than they have in the past. Many produc-ers haven’t been strategic in their grain marketingbut they’ve still been rewarded with profits (due tothe high crop prices we’ve experienced over the pastfew years). Unfortunately, thishas led some to forget about for-ward marketing all together.

Recently, I’ve spoken with somecorn and soybean buyers andthey’ve indicated that there ismuch less forward selling todaythan there has been in previousyears and there is very little 2014crop contracted. Now is the timefor producers to get back to look-ing to the future for opportunities.

I think we can learn from the pro-tein sector. The protein sector hasgone through a large amount of adversity in the last fiveyears and successful producers have utilized a very strictmargin management strategy, always covering theirinputs and sales at the same time. As the grain sector isheading into an environment where a disciplined marginmanagement strategy will separate the successful opera-tions from those that aren’t, we can follow the lead of theprotein sector and the lessons they have learned.

As the markets have shown a downward trend incorn, many believe prices will recover and marketswill rise. Unfortunately, that isn’t necessarily thecase. Now is the time to make sure your operation isprepared if the trend continues lower. Here are a fewthings you can do now.

Know your cost of production, be disciplinedA disciplined approach to grain marketing starts

Grain OutlookCool-down timed

right for cornThe following market analysis is for the week end-

ing Aug. 2.CORN — The below-normal temperature regime in

much of the Midwest that began sometime after thethird week of July is expected to continue on most ofthe extended weather forecasts.The cool down came at the righttime for corn entering the repro-ductive stage, even if there arekey spots in the western CornBelt that are short on rainfall.

Our national corn yield esti-mate currently stands at 155.1bushels per acre, which com-pares to the July U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture estimate of156.5 bu./acre. A key componentof our yield estimate is acreage-weighted temperature and pre-cipitation data. The preliminaryreading on July weather shows temperatures 1.8degrees Fahrenheit cooler than average, and rainfallabout 31 percent less than average.

Weekly exports sales were strong with 134 thousandmetric tons for old-crop and 1.1 mmt for new crop.Next marketing year commitments are the highest ofthe last five years for this point in time. The weeklyethanol production rate continued to slide for a thirdweek, coming in at 832,000 barrels/day. If the produc-tion rate remains at the 832,000 barrels/day, market-ing year corn use will be very close to the 4,650 millionbushels estimate from the July USDA report.

There was an interesting development in theworld fertilizer marketplace when Russian potashproducer OAO Uralkali withdrew from one of theworld’s two potash marketing cartels, the BelarusPotash Company. The strategic decision to marketdirectly through its own marketing channels

Livestock AnglesCattle struggle

with soft demandThe livestock markets have been relatively quiet and

extremely choppy over the past several weeks. Priceshave been both up and down during the period and haveended this period near unchanged to just slightly higher.

The cattle market in particular has been nearlysteady in the last half of July withcash prices remaining in a nar-row range while the futures mar-ket has slid slightly lower, closingthe wide basis between cash andfutures. As we move into themonth of August, the basis shouldclose further or the threat ofdeliveries will become more likelydue to the positive basis.

Overall the cattle market con-tinues to struggle with softdemand for beef. This despite thefact that the beef cutout has nowdropped below $190 per hun-dredweight basis choice in the past few weeks, thelowest level in months. This reflects the ongoingproblem that has faced the cattle market for months:the weakening demand. Cattle numbers still remainlower than last year, but the fact that the finishedweights are greater than a year ago has kept totalbeef production slightly lower than the previous year.

The consumption of beef in the United States hasbeen on the decline for years and export business,while fair, has not been enough to offset the decreasedsales in the domestic market. Until this situationchanges, it is not likely that any sustained rally inprices can be forthcoming in the near future. Produc-ers should continue to monitor the market conditionsand protect their inventories as warranted.

The hog market, on the other hand, has been a bitmore active in price discovery over the past severalweeks. Both cash and futures prices have darted

EMSLIE, from pg. 18implies their profit model will be to movehigher volumes at lower prices, espe-cially directly to China which may beable buy potash at $300/ton compared to$400 on world markets currently.

The publicly traded members of theCanadian potash cartel fell sharply onthe prospect of lower prices. Thisshould mean lower potash prices at thefarm gate next season. In the long-runthe lower price expectation already hasput huge question marks over someprojects on the drawing board, includ-ing ones in Canada and England. With-out production expansion, the supply-demand balance could tighten.

OUTLOOK: December corn attempteda very modest mid-week rally beforefalling to a new 2013 low by the end ofthe week. For the week, the Decembercontract was down 12.25 cents, and theSeptember contract was down 16 cents.On the latest Commodity Futures Trad-ing Commission report, non-index fundswere short 182,000 contracts, the biggestnet-short since at least 2006. Until themarket shows some sign of bottoming,there is no trigger for funds to abandontheir short positions.

With the new multi-year low in theDecember 2013 contract made duringthe week, the next previous low on thechart was made all the way back inNovember 2010 at $4.60. On the upside,the December contract made monthlyhighs in March to June just above the$5.70 mark, defining resistance.

SOYBEANS — New-crop soybeanswere the focus of selling this week,declining on 4 of the 5 sessions andultimately losing 47 cents on the week.The old-crop August contract held in alittle better, but was still down 18.75cents on the week.

beans have a longer win-dow to take advantage ofrainfall, making Julyweather less critical than July and Augustweather considered together. However, wehave trimmed our soybean yield estimatefrom the preseason expectation by 0.5bu./acre to 44.1 based on the preliminaryrainfall and temperature data.

Export sales were solid at 79 tmt forold-crop and 1.0 mmt for new-crop.Daily sales announcements showed atotal of 410 tmt for 2013-14 sold tounknown.

OUTLOOK: The November soybeancontract is trading near price levelslast seen in June 2012 before thedrought hit. The market defined lowson a closing basis at $11.53 duringthat period. The market will remainfocused on the weather pattern duringAugust, which looks cool and some-what dry at this point. Funds shednearly 35,000 contracts of their netlength during the last reportingperiod, but remain net long about31,000. The first key resistance pointon rallies is $12.23-12.27. Demand issolid, but the natural focus on the sup-ply side at this time of year will drivethe markets. The August USDA sup-ply/demand report is on Aug. 12.

Emslie’s Extras: This week saw therelease of the first estimate of secondquarter Gross Domestic Product in theUnited States, Federal Reserve and Euro-pean Central Bank policy meetings, andthe July Employment report, highlight-ing a heavy confluence of economicreports and events during the week thatsaw U.S. equity markets reach newrecord highs. The S&P 500 was up about0.9 percent for the week ahead of the closeon Friday, establishing the new recordhigh print of 1707.85 on Thursday.

The economic news from the UnitedStates was more mixed in nature than thepush to a record high on the stock marketmight suggest, but the central banks both

here and in Europe con-tinue to pledge that mon-

etary stimulus will be pro-vided as needed. Second quarter GDPgrowth was 1.7 percent, beating expecta-tions for growth of about 1 percent, butannual revisions to historical data meantthat the first quarter was trimmed from1.8 percent to 1.1 percent.

When the numbers for the first halfare viewed as a whole, essentiallygrowth was about where the marketexpected prior to the release of the Q2number. The ISM ManufacturingIndex for July was very strong at 55.4compared to 50.9 the previous month,consistent with accelerating GDPgrowth in the current quarter.

The Federal Open Market Committeemeeting mid-week resulted in no policychange as expected, and there was nopress conference following the meeting.The statement released did dial backever so slightly the Fed’s assessment ofeconomic growth, and contained lan-guage that spelled out the Fed acknowl-edgment of the risks of disinflation. Thatfueled the perception that commitmentto QE as needed remained in place, even

if there is a broad-based expectationamong analysts that tapering willbegin in September. Mario Draghi of theEuropean Central Bank did hold apress conference following the policymeeting, striking an accommodativetone by citing a weak recovery andpledging to keep interest rates at record-lows or lower for an extended period.

Wheat markets bucked the pricetrends in the row crops, gaining 4.75cents in Minneapolis, 15.25 cents inKansas City, and 10.25 cents inChicago. Egypt made its fourth pur-chase of wheat in the month of July, buy-ing 240 tmt from Romania and Russia.Japan announced it will resume buyingU.S. white wheat after confirmation thatthe GMO wheat found this spring inOregon was an isolated incident. TotalU.S. weekly export sales were 597 tmt.Recent frost in Brazil will trim produc-tion and increase the potential for U.S.hard red winter wheat exports.

When agronomy retailers start offer-ing options for prepaid fertilizer, it’simportant to put those costs into yourcost structure to determine if it’s theright time to purchase the input. Ifyour numbers tell you that you canpurchase the input and maintain aprofit, purchase the input. It’s impor-tant, however, to remain disciplined.

When making the purchase, youneed to protect it by selling some com-modity. You can use various means toprotect that purchase: a hedge-to-arrive contract, fixed contract or utiliz-ing a put and call strategy.

Rest assured with a quality riskmanagement program

Having a quality risk management pro-gram, such as crop insurance, is the foun-dation for executing a plan while stillsleeping at night. Crop insurance givesyou the ability to forward sell and takeadvantage of opportunities that arise.

Get it in writingAnother valuable resource is having

your marketing plan in writing. It isproven that when a marketing plan is

written down producers tend toadhere to it. Key components of theplan include price goal and timeframefor that goal. That way, if you haven’thad an opportunity for your targetprice, you still have a date to executea sale. As changes occur within theyear, you can adjust your plan accord-ingly.

Looking back, some of the best mar-keting decisions I’ve made were whenI utilized the margin managementstrategy to purchase inputs. Therehave been a few times when fertilizerprices have come down, but if I look atthe time I purchased the input, I wasalso able to sell the crop at a higherprice than the current board price. Ifyou practice margin management andlock in profits along the way, it addsup to a profitable year. There is a say-ing that I love to quote: “No one hasever gone broke locking in a profit.”

The problem arising now is that thepork cutout has begun to slip, makingthe packer margin tighter and thusthe possibility of the packer backing

away from aggressively bidding forlive inventories. The next severalweeks could be very interesting andwill likely set the tone of the hog mar-ket heading into the winter months.

With the pork cutout now below the$100/cwt., pork still represents thebest value in the entire meat complexwhich could still provide some supportto the market in the near term. Pro-ducers are urged to keep the marketinformation at hand and protect inven-tories if needed. ❖

This column was written for the mar-keting week ending Aug. 2.

The July Federal order farm gate Class IIImilk price took a 64 cent dip.The U.S.Department of Agriculture announced themanufacturing grade price at $17.38 perhundredweight, down 64 cents from Junebut 70 cents above July 2012, and equatesto about $1.55 per gallon.That put the 2013Class III average at $17.69, up from $16.01at this time a year ago and $17.68 in 2011.

The Class III futures portend a turn-around in the August contract, whichwas trading late Friday morning at$17.91. September was at $18.52;October, $18.52; November, $17.75;and December was at $17.24.

The Class IV price is $18.90, up 2 cents from Juneand $4.45 above a year ago. Its 2013 average nowstands at $18.27, up from $14.84 a year ago butcompares to $19.38 in 2011.

The four-week Agricultural Marketing Service-sur-veyed cheese price used in determining the Class milkprices averaged $1.7142 per pound, down 6.7 centsfrom June. Butter averaged $1.4674, down 7.5 cents.Nonfat dry milk averaged $1.7272, down 6.7 cents, anddry whey averaged 58.04 cents per pound, up 0.7 cent.

California’s 4b cheese milk price was announcedby the California Department of Food and Agricul-ture at $15.65/cwt., including CDFA’s temporarymandated price increases. The 4b price is down 26cents from June, 47 cents above a year ago, but$1.73 below the Federal order Class III price. The2013 4b average now stands at $15.99, up from

$14.02 at this time a year ago and com-pares to $16.20 in 2011.

The 4a butter-powder milk price is$18.61, up 22 cents from June and $5.11above a year ago. The 2013 4a average isnow at $18.03, up from $14.55 a year agoand compares to $19.10 in 2011.

July’s milk-feed ratio was unchangedfrom June, at 1.52, according to USDA’slatest Ag Prices report, but is up from 1.34in July 2012. Lower monthly average milkprices, with small declines in average

alfalfa hay and corn prices offset ahigher average soybean price and wasthe 28th consecutive month the milk-feed price ratio was below 2.0.

The U.S. average all-milk price was $19.10/cwt., downfrom $19.50 in June but up from $16.90 a year ago.Corn, at $6.83 per bushel, was down 14 cents fromJune, and 31 cents less than July 2012. Soybeans aver-aged $15.40/bu., up 30cents from June andunchanged from lastyear. Alfalfa hay aver-aged $209 per ton, down$11 from June, but $11more than July 2012.

Dairy BusinessUpdate points out thatthe Ag Price reportshows estimated U.S.July cull cow prices (beefand dairy combined)averaged $81.80/cwt., up$1.50 from June’s revised estimate, and 90 cents/cwt.more than July 2012. DBU also reported that “The Julyincrease ended a string of three consecutive monthlydeclines. The year-to-date average is $80.91/cwt., com-pared to $82.99 for the same period a year ago.”

With the Ag Prices report providing the final feedcost adjuster, USDA announced the June MilkIncome Loss Contract program payment at 21.873cents/cwt. on eligible milk. DBU adds that, based oncurrent and futures prices as of July 31, a smallMILC payment (less than 10 center/cwt.) is likely thelast for fiscal year 2013, which ends Sept. 30, 2013.

Meanwhile; cash block cheese closed the first Fri-day of August at $1.7750 per pound, up 1.25 cents onthe week, the fifth consecutive week of gain, and 6.5cents above a year ago. Barrel closed at $1.7725, up1.25 cents on the week and 8.75 cents above a yearago. Six cars of block and two of barrel traded handson the week. AMS-surveyed block cheese averaged$1.6925 per pound, across the United States, up 0.8-cent, while barrel averaged $1.7096, up 2 cents.

Stocks of cheese remain plentiful, but cheese pro-duction is slowing as the recent heat wave acrossmuch of the country reduced milk flows and compo-nent levels, according to USDA’s Dairy Market News.

Jerry Dryer’s July 26 Dairy and Food Market Ana-lyst said, “Those holding this product apparently arenot as bearish as some others in the cheese business.There has been a steady flow of cheese to the

Exchange, but with stocks of this magnitude; therecertainly was the potential for a much larger move-ment to market. Historically, this much inventoryhad cheese trading in the $1.30s.”

Export demand remains good, supported by pro-grams like Cooperatives Working Together whichaccepted 14 requests for export assistance this weekto sell 1.2 million pounds of cheese and 947,988pounds of butter to customers in Asia, Central Amer-ica, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.

The product will be delivered through Decemberand raised CWT’s 2013 cheese exports to 75.7 millionpounds plus 61.3 million pounds of butter, 44,092pounds of anhydrous milk fat, and 218,258 pounds ofwhole milk powder to 34 countries.

■

June butter production totaled 141 million pounds,according to USDA’s latest Dairy Products report,down 13.8 percent from May but 2.7 percent aboveJune 2012. Nonfat dry milk output totaled 131 million

pounds, down 13.3 per-cent from May and 22.5percent below a year ago.

American-type cheese,at 364 million pounds,was down 6.2 percentfrom May but 1.2 percentabove a year ago. Totalcheese productionamounted to 914 millionpounds, down 3.9 percentfrom May and 1.4 per-cent above a year ago.

High Ground dairybroker Eric Meyer says cheese and butter outputwere lower than expected and nonfat dry milk wassharply lower but USDA posted a major downwardrevision to May production. The “lost” powder did notdisappear from ending stocks, he said, and was actu-ally higher than May. He views the report as “some-what bullish for both cheese and butter, neutral forwhey products and potentially bearish to the NDMmarket.”

FC Stone broker Dave Kurzawski says the reportseems to indicate there might not have been as muchmilk produced in June as preliminary data showed.

Recent hot weather reduced cow comfort andpushed butterfat components seasonally lower inmost areas of the country, according to DMN. Withthe recent downturn in butterfat components, somebalancing plants indicate they have few cream loadsavailable for clearing to the spot market. Based oncream availability, cream sales into ice cream andsoft serve mix operations are active.

But some of that heat has since diminished and FCStone’s July 29 Insider Opening Bell stated: “Coolweather throughout much of the country, heavycheese and butter stocks, and strong milk productionhave weighed on the market, while weak global pro-duction and low world dairy product stocks, particu-larly in Oceania, have been trying to pull priceshigher. The market is in an over-reactive state. Whenit moves, it makes big moves. It is locked in a strug-

BACK ROADS, from pg. 40“When you can find a speeder, prices run from

$2,500 to $10,000,” said Short. Outside of nostalgia,especially if you’ve been a long-time railroadadmirer, a primary purpose of these events is toremind people that rail was once a primary means ofmoving people, and should still be a major tool fortransporting people.

“Drawing attention to what railroads are all aboutis a mission of this National Railroad Association,”said Short. He sees no reason why this particularline from Hanley Falls to Norwood-Young Americacan’t once again be a people mover, too.

“There used to be four passenger trains each day run-ning through Belview, Minn. We’re talking expandedcommuter rail in the Twin Cities. So who knows, maybesomeday we’ll have daily passenger train servicebetween this area and the Cities. It used to run twicedaily from Minneapolis to Watertown, S.D.”

On this run to Hanley Falls, a lunch was served toall 46 train “engineers” and passengers. These littlerigs don’t need a turn table to get going the otherdirection. Some have a hydraulic cylinder that lifts

the speeder, then driver and passenger simply twistthe car 180 degrees and drop it back on the rails.Others merely lift their car off the track by handbefore doing the turnaround.

Short recalls when this particular rail road line wasvirtually abandoned in 1992 but, thanks to hard workand some dedicated volunteers, the line got reopenedand upgraded so that it is now a functioning 98.6-milefreight line owned by the Minnesota Valley RailAuthority, funded by major users of the line such asTwin Cities Western out of Glencoe hauling grain,ethanol, gravel, salts and other commodities.

Short said upgrading and restoring this venerablerail line cost nearly $40 million, assisted with a $4.8million loan with zero percent interest from Min-nesota Department of Transportation. Governmentgrants and state bonding covered the rest of thisrestoration. Short indicated this line now moves about8,000 cars per year. “And that equates to about 32,000trucks removed from Minnesota highways,” he noted.

Rick Randall of Minneapolis purchased his first“speeder” car in 1995. He calls his involvement “andobscure hobby. I’ve always been interested in railroads.

So when this came into my world I couldn’t resist.”According to Randall there are now about 2,000

members in the Association. This number is notlikely to grow since “speeder” cars are hard to findand most operators are senior citizens with someunused cash and a special love for the rail.

Randall’s rig is powered by a four-cylinder engine.Some use a kerosene/gasoline mixture. Pickupswith special hydraulic rail car wheels are theinspection vehicle of choice these days.

David Voeltz, a program coordinator of the SouthDakota Highway Department, was coordinator ofthis special two-day central Minnesota event. Hesaid events like this occur across the nation virtu-ally every weekend.

“These start as early as March depending uponwhat section of the country we’re in, and often runinto December as well,” said Voeltz.

He said younger people — under age 40 — likelyhave no idea of what speeder cars are all aboutsince they were replaced with pickups and specialrail line wheels in the early 1970s. Voeltz admits toowning two of these unusual rigs but says the asso-ciation has members who own as many as 10 ofthese little railroad scuttle bugs.

MIELKE, from pg. 20gle between bullish andbearish fundamentals. Themarket will likely remain choppy until it gets a moredefinitive direction.”

It later warned that “Large corn and soybean cropsand falling feed costs are expected to improve on-farm margins leading to strong milk production laterthis year and early next. Oceania’s production sea-son is also expected to get off to a decent start in thenext month or so. Expectations for stronger produc-tion here and in Oceania have sent Class III spiral-ing lower.”

USDA’s Crop Progress report showed 71 percent ofthe nation’s corn is silking, compared with only 43percent the previous week and a five-year average of75 percent. Corn condition was steady, with all but11 percent of the crop rated fair to excellent. All but9 percent of the soybean crop was rated as fair toexcellent.

Cash Grade A nonfat dry milk closed Friday at$1.7825, up a quarter-cent on the week. Extra Graderemained at $1.73. AMS powder averaged $1.7479,up 1.2 cents, and dry whey averaged 57.91 cents,down 0.3 cent.

Milk production continues to be impacted byweather across the United States. In the Southwestand Northwest, hot temperatures were causing milkdeclines at the farm. Some areas of the PacificNorthwest were seeing temperatures in the tripledigits, 6-19 degrees above normal. Utah and Idahosaw daytime highs above 100 degrees, affecting pro-duction and conception rates.

Central Valley, California, saw cooler nighttimetemperatures resulting in increased milk flow. Local-ized, heavy rains were common in Arizona, interrupt-

ing transportation to and from plants. The UpperMidwest experienced a reprieve from hot and

humid conditions, seeing milk productionincreases following declines of 8-10 percent the priorweek. Heat and humidity eased in the Northeast, butplants were still seeing lower milk receipts, as muchas 10 percent in some areas, according to DMN.

Updating things on the fsarm bill as Congressheads into its August recess — The National MilkProducers Federation’s Chris Galen reported in hisThursday DairyLine program that “There’s been novisible progress in trying to bring leaders from theHouse and Senate to negotiate a compromise barmbill.” He said it’s up to dairy farmers, in the next fourto five weeks, to let their elected official know that“failure is not an option” to get a bill passed before theend of September, which is the end of the fiscal yearand when some farm programs expire. He suggestedfarmers visit lawmakers at local fairs and meetingsand log on to the NMPF website — www.nmpf.org —and use the “Write to Congress” feature.

SSeats are very limited but for a mostunusual “riding the rails” adven-

ture, catching one of the events of theNorth American Railcar Operationsranks at the very top.

We’re talking about rail track motorcars called ‘Speeders’ gathered at therail line adjoining the North RedwoodElevator on June 15 and 16.

Long-time railroad buff Gene Short ofCurry, Minn., described this gatheringof hobbyists who have purchased someof the old two-passenger units used byrailroad employees to periodically checkthe rails for safety inspection. On this

day, 26 of these speeder cars departedthe 24-mile run to Hanley Falls for a“hands on” experience of what ridingthe rails was really all about.

Short says this association is now anationwide organization and whenevera group can “reserve” a section of rail fora half-day or all-day run, these folkswith pickups and trailers haul theirspeeders to that location for another rid-ing the rail adventure. Short explainedthat each of these little rigs has its owngas engine and can reach speeds of morethan 20 mph on a good track.

“Some don’t have mufflers, so they

can be a bit noisy. Most drivers andtheir passengers wear ear mufflershowever,” said Short, who also indi-cated this era of rail checking speedersdates back to the late 1940s and ’50s,with many of them manufactured by arailroad firm at Farmington, Minn.

If you’re old enough you might remem-ber the days when “pumper cars” werethe means of moving rail employeeseach day. Just as the name implies, twomen facing each other would pump theirway down the rail line.
