Farmers should meet

standards without cost sharing and join coalitions for enhanced, farmer-led water quality initiatives.
Municipalities and industry should apply wastes to
cropland according to nutrient
management plans.
Paul Daigle, land and water
director for the countys Conservation, Planning and Zoning Department, said the three
resolutions are consistent
with the countys land and water use plan. He hopes to have

THE RECORD-REVIEW
Opinion/Editorial
According to the Pew Research Center, just about the same percentage of American conservatives have received a major government entitlement during their lifetime as liberals. The percentage
is 57 percent for conservatives, 53 percent for liberals. Yet, the two
camps dont agree at all whether government assistance to individuals is a good way to spend taxpayers money. Its a key disagreement
in an increasingly polarized America.
Take, FoodShare, for instance. The Pew Research Center reports 17
percent of both American liberals and conservatives have benefited
from the food assistance program. Conservatives, however, argue
that the program creates dependency and subsidizes laziness. They
support work requirements for FoodShare recipients. Liberals, on
the other hand, argue that a persons basic needs must be met before
he or she can be independent. They oppose tighter restrictions on
FoodShare eligibility.
So, who is right? The liberals? The conservatives?
New data out of Marathon County suggests that nobody has the
exact answer.
Starting this year, Wisconsin joined an increasing number of
states to require that able-bodied childless adults find work or lose
their FoodShare benefits.
Here, in Marathon County, the work requirement seems to have an
impact.
Back in August, the county had 14,300 people on FoodShare. By
September, when the work requirement went into effect, the number had fallen by 257 people. In October, the number of FoodShare
recipients had dropped another 231 people to 13,812. The two-month
drop of 488 people represents a decrease of 3.4 percent in the county
program.
Now, is this a good thing? A bad thing?
Its hard to know. The private firm that manages the countys FoodShare Training and Employment Program (FSTEP) reports that 110
FoodShare recipients in Marathon County have been directed to
work since April.
This means that work requirements were theoretically effective
for one person out of four. Three out of four FoodShare recipients,
however, have elected to go without the government-provided nutrition.
The numbers parallel state trends. The Department of Health and
Human Services reports that, while nearly 15,000 able-bodied, childless adult Food Share recipients were trimmed from the FoodShare
program statewide since September, only about 4,500 people have received FSTEP employment.
What we have is a messy result. The work requirement apparently
does encourage employment, but at the cost of denying nutrition to
poor, albeit able-bodied adults. One wonders, then, what these people denied FoodShare will do to eat. Sell drugs for money? Engage in
prostitution? Raid a relatives refrigerator? Rely on community food
pantries? And one wonders, too, about the long-term consequence
of not getting aid. Consider the case of a man or woman who, while
poor, cant work the required 20 hours a week to qualify for FoodShare because he or she is obligated to take sick parents to the hospital for cancer treatments. FoodShare may have been the one thing
keeping that persons world from blowing apart. And now it is gone.
To qualify for FoodShare, a single individual must earn less than
a gross income of $1,276 a month. Thats the equivalent of working
full-time (40 hours) at $7.97 per hour. The FoodShare benefit is worth
$195 a month.
The states new rules can hardly be considered harsh or particularly punitive. The regulations only require that able-bodied people
without children work. Exemptions are offered for those with physical or mental disability, who are on Social Security and are enrolled
in drug or alcohol counseling, or employment training. Recipients
can even volunteer in lieu of actual work.
Still, one has to wonder what kind of misery can follow the person
shutout from FoodShare and, unhappily, falls through the cracks of
this life.
We find ourselves at the start of the holiday season. Christmas is
near. We all will have opportunities to donate to local charities and
food pantries who serve our local needy population. It might be a
good idea to put a dollar in that donation pot. Or offer up a couple
cans of soup.
Think of it as insurance. Because, whether conservative or liberal, you might be utterly wrong about FoodShare.

Bacon fat
soap makes
good hobby
An office conversation about bacon
grease and its many uses made me nostalgically remember about my early
days of soap making.
I acquired the hobby quite by accident
really. A large quantity of excess bacon
grease was rendered at a grand breakfast we hosted at a cabin our family
owned. We cooked a
deal of bacon

figured there was

too much fat left
over to just toss out.
So, as merely a
matter of convenience, I poured
the remaining fat

asked what I was

doing with it. Off
the cuff, I answered, Im going to make
it into soap.
Her response, as an ever-supportive
distant relative was, You cant make
bacon into soap! Itll turn rancid and the
lye will burn your flesh off ! Theres a
reason they sell soap in stores now!
So, as is often the case when someone
says something cant or shouldnt be
done, I was motivated to try.
A book from the local library provided
me with a simple recipe for common
lard soap. I figured bacon fat and lard are
the same thing, give or take a little extra
salt. So, I went to work.
Basic soap making is actually quite
simple. Its just a matter of getting the
right amount of lye dissolved in water
mixed with fat at the right temperature.
Its then blended together until it starts
to gel and poured into some sort of mold.
I used disposable applesauce containers
for molds during the first go-round.
I added a touch of citronella essential
oil to tame the aroma and it made a nice
all-purpose outdoor utility soap. Nothing cleans hands soiled from gardening
or landscaping like good old bacon soap.
I later branched out into the finer
techniques of soap making, using more
refined vegetable based oils, blends of
essential oils and fancy molds. As I continued to Martha Stewart my soapmaking, I never forgot about my humble
beginnings. Theres still really nothing
like saving up bacon grease for a batch
of crude, utilitarian soap.
To keep character, the soap must be
molded and cut up crudely too. I think
the last time I made the stuff, I poured
the saponified mix of fat and lye into a
cardboard oatmeal container. When it
hardened, I cut the whole thing into slices like a giant roll of braunschweiger.
That was years ago, but Im still using
chunks of the stuff to this day. A couple
bars live outside by my cigar porch for
summertime cleanup.
I must say, bacon soap leaves the skin
soft and supple - much more so than anything store bought. That fat works its
way into the pores and improves natural
moisturization. If there are a few bacon
bits that didnt get strained out, they
serve to scrub and exfoliate the skin as
they articulate on your dirty mitties.

Peter Weinschenk, Editor, The Record-Review
I remember snow.
Its that white stuff that covers everything.
I shovelled away a half-inch dusting off
my back steps this morning.
I had to crawl upstairs in my barn to retrieve our snow shovels. They were tucked
away next to the canoe paddles, the pink
flamingos, the spare office chairs and other
miscellania that tend to get lost in a barn.
Over the summer, the shovels appeared
odd. What use are orange colored, flat shovels when the grass is green and the apple
trees are in bloom? Now, however, when the
ground is white and the sky is slate gray,
the snow shovels look quite useful. They
beg to be put to work. This is their season.
It took but a minute to clear my steps. I
remembered the drill. The muscle memory
kicked in quickly.
Yet I marveled in my task. The snow was
enchanting. It is light, fluffy, even feathery.
Its fun to throw around. I reveled in the
fact that snow is made of snowflakes, each
one of them unique.
I looked at my backyard. That, I said, is a
lot of uniqueness in a bunch of sameness.
Just like we humans.

We enjoyed having our adult son, Guthrie, hang around a few days after Thanksgiving.
My wife, Susan, and I enjoy his company,

We also appreciate his appetite. Its very

Our family had a nice, big Thanksgiving
dinner, but, even with five people at the table, we barely made a dent in the food that
was served.

Williams speaking fee.
Williams said Kenyan children at the
African orphanage need shoes. The
shoes were needed, he told the student
assemblies, not just to put something
on the childrens feet. Shoes are required in Kenya for children to attend
public school.
Following Williams talk, a friendly
competition between Stratford and Edgar schools was initiated. Both schools
have until Dec. 14 to gather as many
shoes as possible.
Federwicz said the Edgar and Stratford communities are being asked to
donate shoes to the cause. All shoes
are welcome, she said. Some may not
be proper footwear for a Kenyan child,
she said, but all can be used to help
children attend school.
Federwicz said students are encouraged to perform random acts of kindness. She said kindness is popping up
all over her school.
Its awesome, she said. People
are holding the door open for the UPS
driver. They are giving out hugs. One
day, students, on their own, put paper
hearts on all of the high school and
middle school lockers with little written encouragements on them.
Brad Grube is advisor of the shoe
collection organized by the Stratford
High School freshman and sophomore
classes. He estimated that 420 pairs
of shoes had been collected before
Thanksgiving, toward the goal of receiving 2,000 pairs of donated shoes.
He has no doubt that Stratford will
reach its goal.

People who do not meet the new work

It isnt clear whether people in Marathon County who have lost their FoodShare benefits have become employed.
Tom Prete, spokesperson for CW Solutions, said his company has found

According to the Wisconsin Department of Health and Human Services,
Wisconsin had 17,917 new enrollees in
FoodShare from January to September
of this year. FSET has found jobs for
4,513 people between April and September.
Huebsch said Wisconsin used to have

TMJ SYNDROME
Q. What is TMJ syndrome?
A. TMJ is the acronym commonly used for the more unwieldy name temperomandibular joint, which is the hinge at which the lower jaw, called the
mandible, connects with the upper jaw on either side of your face. You can
feel the joints movement just in front of your ears. TMJ syndrome is acute or
chronic inflammation of this joint. It can cause significant pain and impair the
operation of the joint. In some cases, the joint can lock in either the open or
closed position.
The TMJ, like any other of your joints, is susceptible to damage from conditions like stiffness and arthritis, and dislocation, whether from a trauma like a
blow to the face, or from regular use. In addition to facial pain, TMJ syndrome
can also cause severe headaches, dizziness and pain or stiffness in the neck
and shoulders. Treatment might include stress-reduction exercises or medication.
Whenever you are experiencing facial pain, you should see your dentist.
While TMJ syndrome is a common cause of facial pain, there are other causes
as well. A sinus infection, gum disease or a toothache can also cause facial
pain. Unfortunately, its estimated some 15 percent of American adults experience facial pain. Your dentist, sometimes with the use of x-rays, can identify the
source of the pain and recommend treatment.

TIGERS
ward Jacob Danen grabbed a tough rebound and was fouled on the putback.
He calmly sank the free throw to help
the Tigers cut into the Cardinals 51-45
lead with just over two minutes left in
the game.
A Pacelli player then turned the ball
over when he dribbled it out of bounds
along the baseline, giving Stratford
another opportunity to cut into the
Cardinals lead.
But the Tigers couldnt take advantage of the miscue and ended up turning the ball over themselves when senior forward Ethan Nagel was called
for a charge while he attempted to
knife through the Cardinals defense.
Stratfords late second-period rally
fell a bit too short, as the Tigers were
forced into fouling Pacelli players
with hopes they would miss their free
throws. The Cardinals made enough
free throws from the charity stripe,
and the Tigers couldnt get the basketball in the hoop as Pacelli went on for
the nine-point victory.
Fecker was second on Stratfords
team with 15 points, as the Tigers now
will look to regroup before their next
game at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at OwenWithee. Stratford heads into Saturdays game with a 1-1 record, after the
Tigers beat Colby, 51-35, in their home
opener Nov. 24.

A weekly perspective
on sports
Most people wouldnt think a
locker would be too special, but I
was elated to see a picture of Aaron
Wickmans nameplate on his college
track and field locker with the signature University of Wisconsin W
engraved.
Many area people will forever remember Wickman, a 2015 graduate
of Athens High School, breaking the
Division 3 200-meter dash record in
21.73 seconds during last springs
state track and field championships.
He is now a freshman sprinter for
the Badgers, and hes been practicing since his classes began in preparation for the first indoor meet of the
season Jan. 16 against the University
of Notre Dame.
Last week I wrote a sports feature
article on 2011 Edgar High School
graduate Aaron Karlen concluding
his stellar UW-Stevens Point football
career, and that now he wants to attempt to realize his dream of playing
in the National Football League.
It turns out there were several
local players on Karlens Pointers
football team this season, including
brothers Blake and Reed Lehman
who are also from Edgar. Reed was
a six foot, three inch, 223-pound senior tight end. Blake was a five foot,
10 inch, 180-pound sophomore defensive back.
Two Marathon graduates, Jake
Dinkel and Damien Lang, were also
on the Pointers football team. Dinkel
was a six foot, two inch, 195-pound
sophomore wide receiver, and Lang
was a six foot, one inch, 248-pound
sophomore tight end.
Athens 2015 graduate Lane Tessmer joined them this season as a five

Hunts in Paradise
Hello friends,
Twenty-seven falls ago, I started writing this column. Fifteen years ago, I started hobby
farming and became a very active father. Outdoor columnists and hobby farmers have one thing
in common and that is a busy season that runs from the start of planting season until the day
that Wisconsins deer gun season ends. I am on the tail end of a whale of a busy season that beat
the pulp out of me physically, financially and
sometimes even mentally.
This week I am writing to you about my
experiences in the great outdoors and the
week before The Red Brush Gang makes it
to deer camp.
Monday, November 16
High 44, low 27
My 14-year-old daughter, Selina Walters,
has her very own food plot. We both hunt it
during the turkey season and it is all Selinas
for bow season, until today. We put a lot of
time, sweat and creativity into our alfalfa,
corn, turnips and radishes.
A simple home in the woods for a month each year.
The local deer population loves eating
them, but as our trail cameras and Selinas
hunts have been revealing this fall, most of the deer are in the plot after dark. The beauty of
Selinas food plot is that she can hunt after school and the few weekends that she is home.
A typical bow hunt for Selina consists of her becoming very comfortable in her ladder stand
and reading while watching the world around her.
Today, I hunted the food plot for the first time this fall. As soon as I was in the stand, a steady
rain began that would last for the next 36 hours. I did not see a deer until I was climbing down
from the stand and I was thoroughly busted when that happened.
Tuesday, November 17
High 42, low 35
A little 36-hour trip to deer camp for a duck
hunt, a bow hunt and to prepare a very large meal
was next on my agenda.
The duck hunt was a 100-percent mind over
matter issue. It was pouring out, extremely windy
and I was going to have to paddle my canoe a
good mile to duck paradise. Back in the 80s
and 90s I had some pretty good duck hunts on
what is a flowage for a cranberry marsh. It has
been probably five years since I paddled a canoe
on it and the last few hunts did not require many
shotgun shells.
Back in the day when I called hunting camp
home for 100 days each fall, I used to ice skate
and cross country ski on this flowage while fishing
with tip-ups.
Today my paddle was into the wind, Selinas
golden retriever Fire did not seem too interested
in the adventure. After a half hour of pulling a
Selina Walters resting in her bow stand after heavy load with my arms, I jumped out of the
a morning hunt.
canoe and started setting decoys.
I had borrowed the pair of chest waders that I
chose to wear today to a young beaver trapper. I had no idea that they were toast and felt cold
reality as they filled with water.
I did not see a single duck; I did see ample amounts of muskrat signs, I paddled back to
my truck and then was off to camp where I peeled an entire six-gallon bucket of potatoes and
created a big time meal for the first night of deer camp.
Wednesday, November 18
High 46, low 37
Everyone has their own version of deer camp and mine is an 18x36 foot portable pole barn
put on public land each November and taken down the last day of deer gun season.
I love it here and actually say that to myself when I am at camp alone. Today I cooked, drank
coffee and then headed out to the woods for a 3/4 mile hike with a bow and arrow and a tree
stand. Here in Wisconsins central forest, if you strap on hip boots and hike in a ways, you have
bow hunting all to yourself.
As usual, I was running late on the sun clock, which was actually blocked out by clouds.
My stand is hung where I have seen some beautiful bucks this year. After hanging my stand, I
climbed down to get my bow and something is missing and that is all five of my arrows.
I had traveled through some dense brush and began backtracking. Naturally, my arrows were
at the very beginning of my hike.
As you can see, hunting is certainly not always about dropping ducks and harvesting bucks.
I love this place! Sunset

loved inviting relatives and friends to the lake and spending the weekends giving tours and waiting for the next person to trip over the one
wonky stair that would get us each and every time.
Vicki and Charlie were so proud of their 25 (and counting) grandchildren and were running constantly to their events. She was the best
cheerleader you could ever wish for, making long road trips for regional and state events. She was so proud of their accomplishments, her
passing will definitely leave an empty spot in the bleachers.
Vicki was a devoted wife and best friend to her husband. The love
they shared is a love that you could feel when you walked into the room.
Vicki was one of the most kind and loving people that you have ever
met. She will be missed by so many who knew and loved her. While
we are heartbroken we will no longer be able to see her smile, we know that God
must have been in need for a really special angel if he took her so soon from us.
Rest, Mom, in the arms of Jesus.
Vicki is survived by her devoted and loving husband, Charlie; children, Shelley (James) Gering, Wausau, Kelly (Kyle) Lukasko, Edgar, Kari (Mike) Butt, Edgar, Kristine (Kurt) Hafferman, Edgar, Melissa (Mike) Bornheimer, Edgar, Tracy

Besides her parents, she was proceeded in death by her siblings, Kenny Kropidlowski, Irene Bonin and Rita Matysik; as well as many other cherished family
members that have also been taken from us much too soon.
The funeral Mass was celebrated at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2015, at St.
John Catholic Church, Edgar. Rev. Robert Streveler and Rev. Thomas Huff presided. Burial was in the parish cemetery. Friends and family called on Wednesday
