Congratulations onmaking it through thewarmest March on re-cord!

Now that we finishcelebrating that fact, it istime to realize that thereare now a couple ofdownsides to deal with.Just because we had un-usually warm (and dry)weather in March does-n’t mean that cold wea-ther has left.

In fact, on the morn-ing of April 8, most ofIowa recorded a blast oflow temperatures thatranged from 17 degreesaround the Iowa GreatLakes to 30 degrees inKeokuk. In most years,that is not a big thing,but this year, the earlywarmth tricked someplants into budding (andflowering) two- to four-weeks earlier than nor-mal. The weather eventricked some families toplant out tender gardentransplants, read that astomatoes, early as well.

The attached mapshows April low temper-atures in southwest Iowaas of April 12. For Loganand Onawa, the site tem-peratures reached 26 de-grees, while to the west itwas slightly warmer andto the east it was colder.Temps did get as low as21 near Harlan briefly onApril 8. To see a full color

map of Iowa from theIowa EnvironmentalMesonet, please go to:http://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/onsite/fea-tures/2012/04/120412.png

So what does thatmean for plants we areconcerned about? Hereis my rundown:

1) If you had alreadyplanted tomatoes or pep-pers out, they are likelygone. Nighttime coversmight have helped, butthere is only so muchyou can expect eventhen. Also, if you do usenight covers (technicallycalled cloches but youcan call them milk jugs,etc. because it is easier)remember to take themoff during the day soplants become acclima-tized and so that day-time sun doesn’t bakethe little seedlings. If, infuture frost events, theplants look frozen, givethem a day or two to seeif the side buds are shot.If it is going to happen,regrowth should start in

a couple of days. 2. For ornamental

trees, you might losebuds or early leaves andflowers, but the plantswill typically break newbuds. Flowers may belost for the season, butthe plants should be ok.

3. [the big concern] Ifyou had fruit trees that

were in flower or havehad petal drop, concernsreally start to ramp uparound a low of 28 de-grees or below. Thatmeans that we likely hadfruit losses in many partsof southwest Iowa.

For Harrison County,the west is likely in bet-ter shape than the east.The biggest concern areais centered in Shelby and

Audubon counties toour east, but temps werelikely in the mid 20s inPersia and Dunlap.

Also, remember thattemperatures may varylocally greatly depend-ing on topography andcover/windbreak. Iffruit trees like apples,cherries and certainlypeaches and apricotshave fruit frozen, theywill not re-flower thisyear, meaning you havelost most of the crop. Thetrees shouldn’t be hurt,but your fruit trees justbecame ornamentals fora year.

If you are interested,you can split a few of theflower buds and thenlook at the ovary (thedeveloping little fruit). Ifhealthy it should begreen. If it is brown orblack, that fruit is dead.

VVoolluunntteeeerrss ggiivveettoo mmaakkee MMaaiinnSSttrreeeett GGrreeaatt!!

Let me begin by giving Lynn Clark a big THANKYOU for serving as the Main Street Board Presidentfor the past two years. Thank you for your time, en-ergy, ideas, and leadership! A lot has been accom-plished during her tenure. I would also like to thankoutgoing Board members Phil Lubbers and JackieThomsen for four years of dedicated service as direc-tors as well as filling active roles on the Organi-zation, Promotions and Business ImprovementCommittees.

As we begin a new fiscal year, I would like to wel-come new board members Mark Esser and RandyPryor as they begin three year terms. The 2012-13WMSC Board includes Roger Kenkel, President;Robert Stephany, VP; Mark Esser, Treasurer; KathyWaite, Secretary; Anita Fouts, William Hutcheson,Glen Leaders, Zell Millard, Randy Pryor, Noel Sher-er, Tony Smith and Lynn Clark.

Main Street Committee Chairs for the comingyear are Business Improvement, Bob Sullivan andChad Soma (Co-Chairs); Design, Glen Leaders;Organization, Tony Smith; and Promotions, AnitaFouts. Please contact one of our Main street repre-sentatives if you have a question or idea.

Amazing, incredible, creative, generous, deter-mined, and dedicated are just a few adjectives thatdescribe the Main Street Board, Committee Chairsand Volunteers, and business/property owners.Four years ago the IDED announced Woodbine as aMain Street Iowa Community. So much has beenaccomplished by all the volunteers, program direc-tors and main street business/property owners thatit is really hard to comprehend.

In my opinion, there is not a community in theState of Iowa that has accomplished what theCitizens of Woodbine have accomplished in the ini-tial four years as a Main Street Community. So con-gratulations to all! As our Volunteer of the Year, ZellMillard, would say, “We have a lot to be proud ofhere in Woodbine.”

But wait, not so fast, the work is not done. It maybe time to come up for air, but not a time to becomepassive. There is still plenty of work to be done andmany volunteers still needed to keep the momentumgoing. As we move forward, new volunteers andideas are needed. So please consider becominginvolved with the Main Street-Chamber as we striveto enhance our great community!

Fast, Accurate, Guaranteed Auto Repairs

When it comes to your car’s safety, brakes top the list of systems that need monitoring.However, many people are unaware of the signs that indicate a car’s brakes may need mainte-nance or repair.

For routine maintenance, it’s important to check the vehicle’s braking system at least once ayear. A thorough inspection should includebrake lining wear, brake fluid level, rotorthickness, condition of hoses and brakelines, brake and dash warning lights, as wellas taking the car for a test drive to detectother potential brake system problems.

It is important to be alert and recognizethe danger signs of brake problems. Otherwarning signs include an illuminated brake warning light, brake grabbing, low pedal feel, vibra-tion, hard pedal feel and squealing.

“Sometimes it’s only a few miles between a soft brake pedal and a pedal that goes clear tothe floor,” said Stephen Powell, NAPA/ASE Technician of the Year and owner of ThoroughbredTransmissions & AutoCare, Inc. in Laurel, Md. “But consumers easily can protect themselvesfrom brake failure by watching and listening for a few simple clues.”

Powell says noise is one of the leading indicators that something is awry with brakes. “Anyout of the ordinary sound is often a sign that brakes have worn to the point they should bechecked,” he said. He added that finding small metal flakes on the wheels is also a sign thatbrakes should be checked.

Another leading indicator is the feel of the brake pedal, Powell said. If the car pulls left or rightwhen braking, or if the front end shakes, those are both signs of excessive brake wear. If thebrake pedal begins to feel spongy, it could be a sign that air has entered the brake system orfluid is low.

Many cars now have ABS (Automatic Braking System) that initiates a rapid- fire pumpingsequence to the brakes to keep the car straight during sudden or hard braking. “If the ABS lightilluminates on your instrument panel, then it’s likely that the wheel sensors have detected exces-sive build-up of metal particles from the brake system,” Powell said. “Most cars are designedto shut down the ABS when excessive particle build-up occurs.” Powell added that a shutdownABS does not prevent you from stopping, just that the ABS feature isn’t working.

He said the requirements for thejob are one factor in the small pool asis the specific nature of governmentalaccounting. April 20 is the cutoff forapplications.

Community leaderssay there is a shortage offamily housing in thearea, and the addition ofnew and safe places tolive is welcome. Indeed,the Greater OmahaChamber of Commercejust launched a housingassessment survey ofSouth Omaha to betterdetermine how to tacklethat concern.

"We're always look-ing for ways to increasethe standard of livingfor our residents," saidMike Battershell, presi-dent of the SouthOmaha NeighborhoodAlliance. "Any time weincrease the density, italso will help retailalong that 24th Streetcorridor."

The Omaha PlanningBoard on Wednesdaywill hear the Lofts on24th Street proposal.

Darin Smith of ArchIcon said that in addi-tion to approval fromthe city, the projecthinges on applicationsfor various fundingmechanisms, includinglow-income housing taxcredits, federal historictax credits, tax- incre-ment financing and cityHOME funds.

The lofts would beArch Icon's first inroadinto Omaha, althoughit's done much restora-tion work in Woodbineand co-owners also havefamily ties to the locallyfamiliar NuStyle Devel-opment Corp., whichwill serve as a consult-ant in the housing proj-ect.

"We're excited to takepart in the historicpreservation projects inOmaha," said MindyCrook, an Arch Icon co-owner whose dad, ToddHeistand, is a NuStyleowner. "It's just beenamazing what we'velearned about what goeson in South Omaha."

She said the seed forthe lofts was plantedabout a year ago whenshe, husband DustinCrook and Smith - own-ers of the company -drove around in searchof historic buildings torevamp. They said theAk-Sar-Ben Beef plantwas the only site in thatarea of 24th Street thathadn't been redevel-oped.

Across the street is abusy strip mall and gro-cery store. On eitherside is a Walgreens andan auto parts store.Today the Ak-Sar-Benbuilding has become abackdrop for peddlerswho occasionally sellwares including shoes,clothes and householditems.

Arch Icon also is try-ing to redevelop a his-toric downtown Omahaparking garage into loft-style housing.

As envisioned by thecompany, the Ak-Sar-Ben building it boughtfor about $300,000would be converted totwo-, three- and four-bedroom apartments forfamilies who meet fed-eral income guidelines.

A freezer additionwould be transformedinto a two-story loft-style floor plan. Thebasement would housea community room,

computer learning cen-ter and office.

A north dock wouldbecome a patio deck forthe tenants.

Duran said his opti-mism about the projectstemmed also from thefact the developer earlyon approached theneighborhood associa-tion for input.

"You can tell they're asmall-town group; notmany folks do that any-more," he said.

Also working on theproject is Alley PoynerMacchietto Architectureof Omaha.

The building inDecember won a listingon the National Registerof Historic Places, Smithsaid, for its significancein industrial history andassociation with the H.Thiessen Pickle Co. andthe truck farming indus-try.

"They'd bring pickleshere from other statesand package them orprocess them into rel-ish," said Smith. "It wasa big deal in the day."

The company at thetime also processedother condiments.

Arch Icon even triedto come up with a clevername for the apartmentcomplex that plays offthe historical signifi-cance of the pickle. Sofar, no such name hasmaterialized. But thedevelopers have metwith a grandson ofThiessen who has pro-vided artifacts andpieces from the heydayof the pickle plant.

Arch Icon plans touse them, perhaps ashallway displays, in thedesign of the building.

A new report fromthe University of Wis-consin PopulationHealth Institute ranksHarrison County 85thout of Iowa’s 99 coun-ties.

The County HealthRankings were devel-oped through a grantfrom the Robert WoodJohnson Foundation.

“Harrison Countywelcomes these rank-ings as an opportunityto build upon our suc-cesses and to addressgaps identified,” BrentSaron, Harrison CountyHome and PublicHealth Department Ad-ministrator, said. “Ourgoal always is to im-prove the health ofHarrison County.”

While HarrisonCounty ranked 85th inIowa, it’s important tounderstand those rank-ings do not present acomplete picture ofwhat Iowa counties,including HarrisonCounty, have accom-

plished. The rankingsare based upon informa-tion that may have notbeen up-to-date or com-plete.

“While we knowthose rankings are onlya snapshot in time, wetake them seriously,”Saron said. “We’ll usethe rankings in conjunc-tion with other commu-nity health assessmentand planning efforts tofind the best ways toaddress our challenges.”

Successes that wereidentified in the rank-ings include strongsocial and economic fac-tors (ranked 22nd), suchas high graduation ratesand low violent crimerates. Gaps identified inHarrison County’shealth included morbid-ity factors (ranked 95th),such as a high percent-age of adults reportingpoor physical and men-tal health.

Saron notes the inter-esting variance betweenbeing ranked 22nd in

social and economic fac-tors yet, at the sametime, ranked at 95th forpredisposition to dis-ease.

“Outside of the rank-ings, in actuality, per-haps, good health con-ditions generally followareas that are robustsocially and economical-ly,” Saron said. “This iscertainly not the case inHarrison County andmy team and I, includ-ing our valuable part-ners, will get to the bot-tom of these importantissues to improve thehealth of all residents.”

The County HealthRankings were com-piled by taking intoaccount a wide range ofhealth factors, includinghealthy behaviors, clini-cal care, social and eco-nomic factors and phys-ical environment.

The Harrison County Conservation Board, along with four other county con-servation boards in southwest Iowa, recently had a public bus tour toKearney, Neb., to view the annual Sandhill Crane migration. The bus of 51people arrived at the Rowe Sanctuary to watch the cranes roost in the PlatteRiver for the evening. It was estimated there were 350,000 cranes. Those birdsstopover to feed on waste corn and insects before resuming their long migra-tion to Alaska for the nesting season. The next morning was a visit to aGreater Prairie Chicken lek to see the mating “dance” of these unique prairiebirds. After another tour of the cranes, a Whooping Crane was spotted. Thereare only about 500 Whooping Cranes in existence and they are a very endan-gered species.

April 22 is Earth Day. Started in1970 by Senator Gaylord Nelson,Earth Day is designed to createawareness of the Earth’s environ-ment and to encourage conserva-tion efforts. If you and your familyparticipate in Earth Day events,such as helping clean up a localpark or taking materials to a recy-cling center, you know the bene-fits of doing your part to improveyour surroundings. But are youdoing everything you can toupgrade your environment forinvesting?Actually, as an investor, you canlearn a lot from the lessons ofEarth Day. Here are just a fewideas:• Diversify. If you’refamiliar with Earth Day, you knowthat it involves multiple activities,including educational programsand do-it-now action steps. Thisvariety is necessary because pro-tecting our environment is a com-plex challenge. Meeting yourshort- and long-term investmentgoals can be challenging, too, butyou’ll have a better chance ofsuccess by diversifying yourinvestment dollars across a rangeof vehicles, such as stocks,bonds, government securities andcertificates of deposit (CDs).Diversification can help reducethe impact of volatility on yourportfolio — and high volatility canbe an obstacle for some peopletrying to follow an investmentstrategy. (Keep in mind, though,that diversification, by itself, can-

not guarantee a profit orprotect against loss.) • Seek growthopportunities. Some peo-ple plant trees on EarthDay, hoping to watchthem grow over theyears. As an investor,you, too, need to plant“seeds” today in thehopes of growth in the future.That means, among other things,that when you purchase growth-oriented investments for the longterm, you need to try to stick withthem and not “uproot” them aftershort-term declines in price. • Develop good habits.If you attend an Earth Day pro-gram, you will learn about manyeco-friendly habits you can devel-op, from using energy-efficientlight bulbs to recycling old com-puters and other electronicdevices. To invest successfully,it's important to develop goodhabits, such as staying investedin all types of markets, seekingtax-advantaged investments andreviewing your portfolio regularlyto make sure it’s still appropriatefor your risk tolerance, time hori-zon and long-term objectives. • Avoid “toxins.” Atsome Earth Day events, you canlearn about “green” substitutesfor toxic chemicals in commonhousehold cleaners. When youinvest, you may also want toavoid “toxins” — or at least“toxic” behaviors, such as chas-ing after “hot” stocks that are

inappropriate for your needs ortrading so frequently that you runup big fees, commissions andtaxes. • Think long term.Above all else, Earth Day is areminder to us that we all want toleave a healthy planet to futuregenerations — which means weneed to make moves that are ben-eficial for the environment overthe long term. When you invest,you also need to focus on thefuture. That means following along-term investment strategyand not getting sidetracked byshort-term events, such as politi-cal crises and economic down-turns.Earth Day comes once a year, butits lessons can have a lastingimpact on our environment. Whenyou apply these same lessons toyour own investment environ-ment, you may be able to achievesome healthy results.
