Lorenz farm wins
Pioneer AwardThe Nebraska Pioneer Farm
Award is sponsored by the Ak-Sar-Ben Foundation and Nebraska Farm Bureau. This award is given for 100 years of continuous ownership by one family. This year’s award was presented to the John and Minnie Lorenz farm.
The farm was purchased by John Lorenz in June of 1915. The prop-erty includes a house and barn where he and his wife, Minnie, lived until his death in 1933. Ownership was passed on to his wife, Minnie. She moved from the farm but retained ownership until her death in 1956. Ownership was then passed on to her granddaughter, Donna Goff, the cur-rent owner. This generational skip occurred because both of Donna’s parents died at an early age.
The 100 years of ownership by one family encompassed three generations but ownership was only vested in two of those and the current owner represents 59 of those 100 years. The current operation of the farm is by a third cousin’s husband and son. The family looks forward to continuing ownership of the property for many more years.
The Pierce County FSA offi ce is currently scheduling appoint-ments for producers to enroll in the Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC) programs. Annual enrollment began June 15 and is required to be eligible for ARC or PLC program benefi ts that may be earned. This initial enrollment will cover both 2014 and 2015 crop years. If 2014 payments are earned, they will be disbursed in October of 2015. Producers are encouraged to schedule an appoint-ment now to enroll their farms by contacting the Pierce County FSA offi ce at (402) 329-4996.
Last winter, producers were provided the opportunity to update farm yields, reallocate base acres, and elect the program they wish to participate. However, producers must annually enroll their farms to be eligible for payment. Enrollment being conducted now is for both the 2014 and 2015 crop years. If cash rent producers bring a copy of both their 2014 and 2015 leases to their FSA appointment, the landowners will not be required to sign the contracts.
Producers with Level 2 eAuth access may enroll their farms in ARCPLC from the comfort of their home using online services. eARC/PLC allows producers to enroll in ARC/PLC online. Producers can choose payment options, assign crop shares, sign and submit their contracts from any computer with Internet access. The eARC/PLC voluntary service is available to all producers who are eligible to par-ticipate in ARC/PLC. eARC/PLC is offered as an additional option, producers can still complete enroll-ment at the county offi ce. It does not alter any ARC/PLC provisions. Additional information about FSA’s
online services is available at https://www.eauth.usda.gov/MainPages/eauthWhatIsAccount.aspx.

Nebraska Timeline
By Nebraska State Historical
Society
On Aug. 13, 2010, the Nebraska Veterans’ Cemetery at Alliance was dedicated. It occupies 20 acres once part of the World War II Alliance Army Air Field, which became op-erational in August 1942. After the war, the government transferred the air fi eld property to the city of Alli-ance for municipal airport use. The city donated land to the Nebraska Department of Veterans’ Affairs for the Nebraska Veterans’ Cemetery. The fi rst interment was made on Jan. 21, 2011, and the cemetery has the capacity for some 8,000 burials. While the cemetery at Alliance is Nebraska’s fi rst state-operated vet-erans’ cemetery, military cemeteries here date to the 1820s.
The fi rst signifi cant such cem-etery was created by circumstance. During the winter of 1819-20, nearly 800 U.S. soldiers of the Rifl e Regi-ment and the Sixth Infantry garri-soned Cantonment, MO, adjacent to
the Missouri River north of today’s Omaha. Not only did the troops suffer from harsh winter weather in their primitive log quarters, an outbreak of scurvy decimated the garrison. Scurvy results from a de-fi ciency of Vitamin C, but fruit and vegetables providing this dietary necessity could not be supplied or grown in this remote location dur-ing wintertime. By March 1820, some 345 men had fallen sick and 100 had died. The death toll had risen to 160 by April 1. The dead were interred atop the bluff near where Fort Atkinson would be built that spring to replace Cantonment, MO. In 1827, the army abandoned Fort Atkinson, but the soldier dead remained, constituting an unoffi cial
and unmarked military cemetery now on private property.
By the 1840s, other military posts sprang up in the Nebraska country to protect the overland route to the West Coast, such as Fort Kearny on the Platte and Fort Laramie. More forts came with the organization of Nebraska Territory in 1854 and statehood in 1867: Fort McPher-son, Fort Robinson, Fort Hartsuff, Fort Sidney, Fort Omaha, and Fort Niobrara, along with smaller can-tonments such as Camp Sheridan. Posts large and small had cemeteries for the burial of deceased soldiers and dependants.
In 1873 the post cemetery at Fort McPherson in Nebraska’s central Platte Valley was designated as a 20-acre national cemetery. Although the army closed the fort in 1880, the national cemetery remained and continues in service today. As other Nebraska army posts and those in adjacent states were closed, the burials in their post cemeteries were relocated to the Fort McPherson National Cemetery. They include 28 enlisted men killed by Indians near Fort Laramie in 1854 during the so-called Grattan fi ght and 63 “buffalo soldiers” of the black Ninth and Tenth U.S. Cavalry who served at Fort Robinson. The cemetery includes veterans of the Civil War, the war with Spain, World Wars I and II, Korea, and Vietnam. Four soldiers interred there received the Medal of Honor.
Recently the U.S. Veterans Ad-ministration announced that a new National Cemetery will be built in Sarpy County. It will be known as the Omaha National Cemetery and is projected to occupy 35 acres. Its completion will give Nebraska two national cemeteries, along with the Nebraska Veterans’ Cemetery at Alliance. Veterans from the Civil War to the present, who chose to be buried in the communities in which they lived, lie in nearly every cemetery across the state.

Monday afternoon of last week, Rosebud Josephson showed the residents how to make a fl ute. Rosebud was the fi rst in her family to play the fl ute. She uses staghorn sumac because it is round and has a soft center. To make one’s own per-sonal fl ute, a person must measure from their elbow to the tip of their fi nger. This will be the length the person will need. The sumac needs
to be a straight piece, Rosebud ad-vised. The bark and skin must be removed and the sumac wrapped in cellophane and allowed to dry for three months. The cellophane is then removed and masking tape is applied to fi nd the center of the sumac. A carving knife is used to gently cut until the wood splits in half; there is a soft core pit in the center which is carved out. There are three sections to a fl ute, Rose-bud said. The straight chambers are for blowing air, which tumbles around a dime-sized wick. How the air is forced into the chambers determines the different tones. Air fl ows through an egg-shaped middle chamber to make the tone, and a big chamber blows the air through the holes, making the music sound. The fl ute has six vertical holes, each hole making a different sound. Rosebud stated that playing the fl ute is calming, and concluded

Osmond Republican:The Q125 celebration has almost
come to an end. We just need to stuff the time capsule with mementos and bury it on Aug. 11, 2015.
I think the time has come to publi-cize a “Thank You” to the committee for an outstanding job. Many out-of-town people commented on what a “great” celebration, something for everyone.
Also, a “Big Thank You” to Rob-bie Gansebom and Chris Adamson for the magnifi cent headquarters museum. These two working girls put a lot of time and late hours into making an outstanding museum. Almost everyone who came into the museum, some several times, was amazed at the memorabilia and artistic arrangement. These gals need to be complimented on their work.
Thank you, Robbie and Chris!Sincerely,

Osmond Republican:On June, 26, 27 and 28, a great
thing happened to me. I, Don Moes, a little-known author of a book called “Never Miss a Party,” took the opportunity to go to the Osmond quasquicentennial party. I was amazed and am still amazed at what I viewed.
Initially, I drove around the streets of Osmond in my rented yellow convertible, ironically with Texas plates, which is where I currently reside. I was amazed at the change in the face of the community in terms of visual integrity. The old un-painted buildings and empty homes were now gone, replaced with paint, elbow grease, but most importantly, a lot of love for the community. Some people would think that this was a product of the plan to get ready for Q125. If you think for a minute, you would realize that none of this could have happened in preparation for the party. This was a much longer-term planned event. The thing that amazed me the most were the streets. They are clean, broad streets with beautiful lawns on both sides. What the city fathers have done through the taxpayers is to create an infrastructure that will last for many years.
As I stood by the band cover looking south toward Highway 20, I thought of a story my father, Tony Moes, told me. You see, the reason I am from Osmond, Nebraska, is that my father fi rst visited Osmond in 1922 when he was working in the oats and wheat fi elds harvest. In 1921, he worked as a harvester from North Dakota down to Kan-sas, and he stopped in Osmond to stay at the Butterfi eld Ranch. In 1922, he did the same and stayed at the Butterfi eld Ranch where he worked as a farm hand. He used to tell me stories about pushing cattle and sheep down Main Street to the railhead. The streets were dirt streets and he said when they were wet, they were very slippery. I stood there and tried to visualize the streets as they were and as they are today. Both

were pristine, orderly and useful for the time.
Osmond will always be my home. Memories I have collected there are ones that most people only hope for. Sometime when you are driving south on Main Street, think for a minute about the times and the people who have walked this road for whatever reason.
While I was at the party, I ran into Doc (Dave Johnson). Dave, as most of you know, lives at the Butterfi eld Ranch. I told Dave when I was writing my book, I struggled to get information about the ranch and its history. Dave said he had several items he could show me, which I will do on my next trip to Osmond this fall.
I want to personally thank Randy Jochum, who chaired the event for Osmond. Randy did a great job of organizing the party, and it was amazing to me that there was no charge for any event. The only money spent by people was for refreshments and food, and that was amazing. A lady walked up to me and asked if I knew where the infl atables were and what the charge was. She said she had been to a similar party in a neighboring community. I found someone and they said the infl atables were at the ball park and they were free. I gave her directions, and she was very happy. The lady was from Wausa.
There is one thing I did not like about the event. It was that most people missed this, and as I said in my book, “If you miss a party, you can never go back.” That party will never happen again.
Kudos to all the volunteers from the community who worked on the party. They are wonderful people and please, never sell yourselves short.
In retrospect, I felt many times over the years that Osmond, like many small communities, would die. When you consider the loss of the number of farmers because of consolidation of farms, there is little question Osmond’s population has shrunk. However, you have bonded together to reach out and create job opportunities in other ways.
If I could offer one piece of advice for the community, it would be that you need to create an Economic Development Committee, which you may already have, which I am not aware of. I believe your efforts should be to bring in new jobs in the village. These jobs do not necessar-ily have to be farm-related. I also think you need to create an indus-trial park where you can build spec buildings for potential employers.
At the end of the day, the light is shining brightly on a little com-munity in Nebraska called Osmond.
God bless all of you.Don Moes

consolidation to gain the benefi ts.LARGER SCHOOLS HAVE:— lower return rates of graduates
to local community – which is a huge concern
— less parental & community involvement in school events
— significantly less student involvement in extra-curricular activities, due to transportation costs and higher competition for being chosen for the “team”, even if more activities are offered
— a much larger academic achievement gap between high and low income students
— lower college attendance and completion rates
— less attraction for new busi-nesses to actual rural community due to lack of physical school site within the town itself
— more social and behavioral student issues
— higher costs for transportation, maintenance, special services, su-pervisory duties, guidance services, security & expectations of higher teacher salaries
— more students that “fall through the cracks”, unless they are a stellar students or exhibit disrup-tive behaviors they get less attention
— an overall lower sense of student “self esteem” due to less individual attention and “not being good enough”
— less student interpersonal connections to staff and classmates
— very possible increased prop-erty taxes
I am not just trying to “ruin a good plan” as I have been accused of. I truly have research-based concerns for all of the students involved. I want the best opportunities for all of our students, not just the super talented, which I believe already receive a challenging education and numerous opportunities to receive a wonderful start for their future education and/or vocation. AFTER ALL, WE ALL CHOSE TO LIVE IN A SMALL COMMUNITY FOR MANY REASONS, RIGHT????
