Over the past nine months, Polk County has seen an im-pressive number of new ideas and amount of energy flowing into local agriculture, according to Lynn Sprague, director of the Polk County Office of Agricul-tural Economic Development.
Some of the year's develop-ments have included:
• Value added farm prod-ucts
• Sharecropping• Expanding farmers mar-
kets • Expanding community
projects like the Mill Spring Agricultural Development Cen-ter, which opened its doors to several new businesses earlier this month.
In the spirit of sharing new ideas, the Friends of Agricul-ture will fire up the griddle for a fresh hot breakfast tomor-row morning to complement this month’s topic of interest; “Growing Local.” Everyone is invited to join the Friends of Agriculture for breakfast on Wednesday, September 15 at 7 a.m. at the 4H Center in Columbus.
The guest speaker will be Charlie Jackson, executive director and one of the found-ing farmers of the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project (A.S.A.P.) headquartered in Asheville, N.C.
He will be discussing local markets for Western North Car-olina farms, past, present, and future: the economics for farms selling in local markets, as well as the national and local trends, resources, and areas of interests to farms and communities in Western North Carolina.
Jackson has extensive ex-perience in developing and implementing local food cam-paigns and creating local food systems designed to be so-cially just, health-promoting, sustainable, and constructive for local economies. He has coordinated major confer-ences and events, and he trains
farmers in marketing and farm profitability.
Jackson is also an author of the groundbreaking local food and farm assessment publication, "Growing Local: Expanding the West-ern North C a r o l i n a Food and F a r m i n g Economy ( 2 0 0 7 ) . " As execu-t i v e d i -rector for ASAP, he has grown the organization to be one of the premier groups in the nation working on re-developing local food systems and centering local economic development on food and farms.
Jackson has been respon-
sible for the successful devel-opment and implementation of programs in farm-to-school, farm-to-hospital, farm-to-chef, direct sales, regional branding, farm tourism, and more. He is
the founder of numer-ous farm-ers markets and farmer a s s o c i a -t i o n s , a community organizer, and a re-searcher on local food
system development. He initi-ated and currently serves on the North Carolina Local Food Policy Council.
Along with directing the day-to-day operations of ASAP, Jackson helps other communities across the nation
develop their local food econo-mies. He has a background in Internet technology and has a master's degree in American history with a concentration in environmental and agricultural history.
The Friends of Agriculture Breakfast is a free monthly event open to everyone in the immediate region with inter-est in agriculture. The Polk County Farm Bureau sponsors the breakfast, which continues to serve as a forum for farmers to share ideas. The formal pro-gram wraps up at 8 a.m., and all are welcome to stay longer for coffee and conversation.
If you’d like more infor-mation on how you can be a part of the Friends of Agri-culture's team of volunteers, contact Lynn Sprague at (828)-894-2281 or send an email to [email protected].

a good start in this campaign, and we expect that to continue as we get the message out that St. Luke’s Hospital is vital to the community.
“One way to share is our message is to show our video,” Powers said. He and St. Luke’s Hospital CEO Ken Shull are pre-senting an update on efforts to build com-m u n i t y support for the founda-tion and the community hospital.
T h e video will be shown in two pre-sentations this week.
On Wednesday, Sept. 15, at 1 p.m., Powers and Shull will be guest speakers at the Tryon Kiwanis Club. The club meets at the Congregational Church on Melrose Ave. The public is invited. For a small fee, lunch is served prior to the meeting. In addition, Meshelle Z. Colvin, the foundation’s new executive director, will be introduced.
On Friday, Sept. 17, at 2 p.m., the video and an update on ef-forts of St. Luke’s Hospital will
be presented at Tryon Estates. In addition, Carol Meeske, founda-tion board member, will provide information on the upcoming fundraiser, Ache Around the Lake, and brunch at the Lake Lanier Tea House. Refreshments will be served.
At both of these presenta-tions, in addition to viewing the short video, people will have an opportunity for questions and
answers.Anyone

House of Flags renovations should be done by end of yearby Leah Justice
The House of Flags museum could be open in its Columbus location sooner than imagined thanks to a recent donation.
House of Flags vice-chair-man Dr. Robert E. Lair Jr. told the Polk County Board of Commissioners last week that local contractors have been se-lected for the renovation work. He said the museum should be able to move in the building by the end of this year.
“I knew all along we were going to do it,” Lair told com-missioners. “We had $70,000 in the bank and had an anony-mous donor who first said she wanted to give $10,000 and then said $40,000.”
Lair said the days of the former fire house building be-ing heated in the summer and cooled in the winter are over.
“Every time it rains we walk on water,” said Lair. “That will all change soon.”
Lair thanked commission-ers last week for their support over the years, and commis-sioners congratulated House of Flags officials.
“I’m convinced this is going to be a real tourist draw,” said commissioner Ray Gasper-son.
Commissioner Warren Wat-son added that the House of Flags is “really going to improve the streetscape of Columbus” as well.
The anonymous donation was given last month and the $40,000 coupled with the $70,000 of donations previous-ly raised will enable the House of Flags board to renovate the former Columbus Fire House on Gibson Street.
The N.C. Forest Service of-fice that was formerly located in the building has already moved to the new Mill Spring Agricultural Development Center.

How did YOUcelebrate
VALENTINE'S DAYthis year?
Roses and chocolates, dinner in a fine restaurant - with love and laughter in the air?
For some women, Valentine's Day was not unlike all other days; another day living in fear, watching their every step, quietly trying to keep their children out of harms way, away from their abusers. But some women DID enjoy dinner out - at a shelter, sharing a table with other battered women. No candlelit dinner here, but in this safe haven, their children smiled, and HOPE filled the air.

DR. ROBERT MCDANIEL
Once upon a time, not so long ago, a local couple happened upon a skinny little Appaloosa mare in a dirt lot. Her owner no longer wanted to trail ride her; she wasn’t needed any more.
Luckily this couple knew a few things about horses and decided to take her home with them and find the little mare a new family. Some extra food, good grass and a few trail rides later this couple put an ad up in the local feed store.
At this very same time, a sweet “horse crazy” young girl had convinced her parents to let her take some riding lessons. She caught the bug and now dreamed of having her own horse. After some poking and prodding her parents answered an ad they found at the local feed store: an Appaloosa mare – for sale!
The little girl, whose name is Amanda, met the little mare, who’s name is Nia, and as most dreams happen (when they come true) it was destined they be together.
One man's trash is another's treasure
Amanda started to take lessons from a local profes-sional. After about six weeks of lessons Amanda and Nia
entered the Foothills Riding Club Horse Trial at FENCE where they won their dres-sage class and successfully
completed the cross-country course and stadium jump-ing. They ended up high point!

Beware of the food policeTo the Editor:
Beware the food police led by our first lady, Michelle Obama who believes if you weigh more than “Twiggy” or “Olive Oyl” you’re morbidly obese, also whose husband “the prez” wants to tax soft drinks unless they’re of the “diet” variety.
That’s the ones where they use “aspartame” as an artificial sweetener which also has been known to cause cancer in lab rats according to Dr. William Camp-bell Douglas.
Now we hear of a school district who wants to put BMI stickers (body mass index) on school kids’ papers to indicate they’re overweight.
So much for the kids’ self-esteem.
I remember when I was a kid (wait a second. I’m trying to re-member that far back) when we made fun of a classmate for being a fatty we got chastised by our teacher for being inconsiderate of their feelings. Now it’s the school officials who are making fun.
I don’t think we need the first lady as a self-appointed dietician telling us what to eat. She needs to involve herself in working with charities.
I read a couple of years ago an article in the newspaper about BMI and how to calculate if you’re overweight or not. It stated that a large number of WWE wrestlers were morbidly obese. Also, Mel Gibson was overweight, as was Tom Cruise, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone and some others.
Uck. Who in the world wants to look like that?
Well, me for one. Hey sweetheart, for dinner
would you bring me a big plate of calories to eat? I want to get big and fat and sloppy looking like “Rambo.”

In the end, there was just too much for Landrum.
too much andre overholt. too much Joel Booker. too much ryan thomas. too much of polk County’s big-play offense. Just too much of the unbeaten Wolverines.
and it all boiled down to polk County’s 29-12 victory over vis-iting Landrum Friday night.
the Wolverines, ranked No. 5 in Class 2a in North Carolina and unbeaten at 4-0, put up back-to-back scores just before the end of the first half, extending their lead to comfortable 22-6 margin.
after Landrum’s peyton Mc-Carter plunged into the end zone from 5 yards out to cut polk’s lead to 8-6, overholt connected with thomas on a 54-yard touch-down pass. Minutes later, Kerry Littlejohn blocked a punt by Landrum’s stephen Doar, set-ting up a 19-yard scoring pass from overholt to Booker with 7 seconds to go in the half.
“It was a tough, physical game,” said polk County head coach Bruce ollis. “I was pleased with the way our offense came out and played, and defensively, were able to hold down a good offensive football team.”
tyler ridings opened the scoring for pCHs with an 8-yard touchdown run. overholt then connected with trey Couch on a 2-point conversion to put the Wolverines ahead 8-0 with 11:56 left in the opening quarter.
overholt completed 10 of 15 passes for a season-high 273 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. He added another 31-yard touchdown pass to Booker with 1:36 left in the third quarter, extending Polk’s lead to 29-12.

them a week earlier in a lopsided loss at Chesnee, but made enough mistakes on offense to help with its own undoing.
a pair of errant snaps in the shotgun formation sailed over the head of quarterback Brandon Cannon for two 19-yard losses, setting up second-and-29 situa-tions on both occasions.
“We were able to fix some mistakes, but now we’ve got to get back to work and fix some others that happened tonight, but we’re going to do that,” said LHs head coach russell Mahaffey.
Cannon completed 6 of 14 passes for 101 yards and an inter-ception. He also rushed 18 times for 51 yards, while halfback Cole McDowell ran 10 times for 51 yards.

to pressure Cannon as the Cardi-nals attempted to rally late in the game, sacking the junior quar-terback three times on the final two LHs possessions. With sack yardage and the two big losses on the bad snaps, LHs were held to 78 yards on the ground.
“We’ve got to find a way to get our offense on track,” said Landrum head coach russell Mahaffey. “I’m pleased with the effort from our players, but we have to find a way to score enough points to be successful.”
the Cardinals’ offense has been held to just six points (Mc-Carter’s touchdown run) over the past eight quarters.
the LHs defense helped out in the third quarter as senior
austin Brown picked an overholt fumble out of the air and raced 59 yards for a touchdown with 9:03 remaining, cutting the pCHs lead to 22-12.
Meanwhile, the pCHs of-fense seemed to be hitting on all cylinders. Both Booker and thomas ended up with more than 100 yards receiving on the night. Booker caught six passes for 153 yards and two scores, while thomas had 3 receptions for 107 yards and a touchdown.
“It’s always good to win in the fourth week of the season because that’s always Landrum,” ollis said of his cross-border ri-val. “We pull for those guys nine other weeks out of the year, but not this week.”
pCHs is off this week, while LHs hosts Dixie Friday night.

Letter to the Editor
Slap in face of the American people To the Editor:
To answer Mr.Goodrich, (TDB 9/3/10 P61), polls show that the American people wanted Obama to say that it would be very insensitive for Muslims to
build the mosque near ground zero. In fact, a slap in the face of the American people.
Instead, because he is a non-citizen Muslim, he couldn’t bring himself to do that, so instead, he chose to distract by erecting a strawman - “it’s perfectly legal for them to build there.” Well nobody ever said it wasn’t. You don’t find that disgusting?

‘Mighty Kudzilla’ helps Saluda Community Land Trust tackle kudzu
The Saluda Community Land Trust at work clearing out the kudzu. (photo submitted)
The Saluda Community Land Trust put “Mighty Kudzilla” to work Thursday, September 2, with the help of the community.
Many people stepped right in to help, and some stopped to watch and ask questions. Orga-nizers say that everything went smoothly and the feeling of ac-complishment was in the air.
Newt Hardie of the Kudzu Co-alition from Spartanburg helped
out Thursday. “Kudzilla” belongs to Paul David Blakeley.
The Saluda Community Land Trust will continue to be working on the site (corner of Ozone and Thomp-son Road) every Thursday morning from 8 till 10 a.m. and welcome the community to join them, whether to watch, ask questions or get out and remove the crown. Without the crown the kudzu cannot live.

West partners with Operation Christmas Child in concert Sept. 18
a true story about Lejla Allison, a girl whose life was changed after receiving a shoe box gift as a child growing up in war-torn Bosnia, and now regularly passes the blessing on to other children. West will give out decorated Operation Christmas Child boxes after the concert. Tick-ets may be bought on-line by credit card at www.matthewwest.com.
West catapulted onto the Christian music scene in 2003 with his debut single, “More,” which was the most played Chris-tian AC song of 2003. West has penned songs for Rascal Flatts, Billy Ray Cyrus, Natalie Grant and Mandisa, among others.
Asheville Christian Academy is located at 74 Riverwood Road, Asheville, N.C. 28778.

West has partnered with Op-eration Christmas Child, a kids-helping-kids project of Samari-tan’s Purse that uses simple gift filled shoe boxes to let hurting children know that they are loved and not forgotten. In 2010, Operation Christmas Child will reach more than 8 million chil-dren - many of whom have never received a gift before - with a message of hope and love.
