� e Washington County Farm Bureau will be working with Kroger’s in Nashville on February 18 to celebrate the American farmer’s role in producing the safest, most abundant food supply in the world.
February 14-20 is “Food Check-Out Week”, and the Marketing Committee of the Farm Bureau will be o� ering consumers with a break on their grocery bill on the 18th. “Food Check-
Out Week” is the time of year when you have earned enough disposable income to purchase all of your food needs for the coming year. To celebrate, the Farm Bureau is o� ering $5.00 o� of every purchase of $50 or more from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on February 18 at Kroger’s in Nashville.
According to the latest statistics compiled by the USDA’s Economic Research Service, American families
and individuals currently spend, on average, around 10 percent of their dispos-able personal income for food. � e $5.00 o� of your $50 purchase represents that 10 percent.
If you have any questions about this or any of the activities of the Washington County Farm Bureau, contact the o� ce at 618-327-3081 or washcfb@washingtonc� .org.

Students from FFA chap-ters across Illinois attended the 212° Leadership Conference. � is confer-ence is an activity of the National FFA Organization made possible by title sponsor Syngenta as a special project of the National FFA Foundation.
212° — the temperature at which water boils — focuses on taking students to the boiling point of per-sonal leadership. At 211° water is extremely hot, but just one more degree gets us to the next level. The two-day 212° Leadership Conference is focused on student development and helps FFA members become aware of all aspects of personal growth. FFA members attended sessions on mental, emotion, phys-ical and social growth. Students leave this experi-ence with a personal plan for self-improvement.
� is school year, more than 7,500 students across the nation will participate in a 212° or 360° Leadership Conference.
The National FFA
Organization provides leadership, personal growth and career success training through agricultural educa-tion to 629,367 student
members who belong to one of 7,757 local FFA chapters throughout the U.S., Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.

Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) Dire c tor Way ne A. Rosenthal announced re-cently that an agreement has been reached to reopen the Illinois State Museum to the public. IDNR has worked closely with Governor Bruce Rauner’s office to develop a new, more sustainable model for operating the museum that will save about $1 million per year by closing two museum branches, con-solidating human resources and accounting functions within IDNR, and by devel-opment of a new manage-ment and organizational structure. � e museum will also seek to improve revenue by charging an ad-mission fee, and increase fundraising e� orts through an improved partnership with the Illinois State Museum Society.
� e timeframe for re-opening will depend upon the I l l inois General Assembly taking up the amendatory veto (AV) of SB 317 and implementing the suggested changes. Governor Bruce Rauner’s AV asks that the authority to charge an admission fee be placed in statute so it can
be implemented immedi-ately upon the acceptance of the amendatory veto.
“If the General Assembly acts quickly on the Governor’s amendatory veto, we believe we could reopen the museum in a matter of weeks,” said IDNR Director Wayne Rosenthal. “Without the General Assembly’s support, it could take months to get the museum reopened.”
Michael Wiant will become interim director of the Illinois State Museum immediately. Rosenthal will ask the Illinois State Museum Board to begin the search for a new director. Rosenthal also will ask the Museum and Society boards to call emergency meetings so work to reopen the museum can begin im-mediately.
“With challenge comes great opportunity, and the museum sta� is grateful for this tremendous opportu-nity to continue to share the art, history and culture of Illinois with its citizens,” said Dr. Michael Wiant, Interim Director of the Illinois State Museum.
“I applaud the Governor's action as it creates a realis-tic path forward to reopen-
ing the Illinois State Museum,” said State Rep. Tim Butler (R-Spring� eld). “Reopening the museum is vital to our community and the plan announced today will provide for the long-term viability and growth of the museum system. I look forward to working with the community, legis-lators, and the Governor as we again open the doors on a wonderful asset of our State.”
“I am encouraged that the Governor took careful steps in adjusting this leg-islation while maintaining the ultimate goal of allow-ing our State Museum to resume its important work. We all want to see those doors open to the public once again, and this compromise could make that happen,” said State Rep. Sara Wojcicki Jimenez (R-Spring� eld).
“The Illinois State Museum Society is looking forward to the challenge of becoming a stronger partner and playing a greater role in the success of the Il l inois State Museum,” said Karen Westbrook of the Illinois State Museum Society.

A Marriage Made in Heaven
A young bride described her marriage as “a marriage made in heaven.” Is there such a thing as a marriage made in heaven? What would a marriage made in heaven look like? If you think a marriage made in heaven is a perfect mar-riage, then you would be greatly disappointed. No husband or wife is perfect, for we are all human and carry our own frailties and foibles. On the website dav-ewillis.org this sage obser-vation is found, “Great marriages don’t happen by luck or by accident. � ey are the result of a consistent investment of t ime, thoughtfulness, forgive-ness, affection, prayer, mutual respect, and rock-solid commitment between a husband and wife.”
In Ephesians 5, God’s Word describes how to have a marriage made in heaven. Read and practice
these � ve areas: 1) Walk in love (Ephesians 5:1-7); 2) Walk in light (Ephesians 5:8-14); 3) Walk in wisdom (Ephesians 5:15-17); 4) Walk in the Spirit (Ephe-sians 5:18-20); 5) Walk in Christ (Ephesians 5:21-33).
Put into practice the fol-lowing building blocks for a marriage made in heaven by following the example of Christ, the heavenly bridegroom, and His love for the church, the bride of Christ. (Ephesians 5:22-33)
SERVANT LEADER-SHIP. A marriage made in heaven acknowledges Christ as head of the church. Paul calls Christ’s love for the church a great mystery. (Ephesians 5:32) Jesus modeled servant lead-ership as He gave His life as a sacri� ce. � e scriptures admonish husbands to take the lead in marriage. “Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be subject to their own husbands.” (Ephesians 5:22-24) � is
does not make the wife a doormat, but a helpmate, a partner. Husbands lead as they fol low Christ’s example.
SACRIFICIAL LOVE. “Husbands, love your wives as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for her.” (Ephesians 5:25-29) Husbands are admonished to nourish and cherish their wife as they would their own body. We do this by words and actions. The scriptures remind us that husbands and wives become one � esh and walk in the intimacy and oneness that Christ modeled for the church. (Ephesians 5:30-32) Recently, I came across this powerful Facebook post, “In the blink of an eye, everything can change. So forgive o� en and love with all your heart. You may never know when you may not have that chance again.” A great philosophy for a good marriage is, “Always building up, never tearing down.”
STRONG COMMIT-MENT. “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one � esh.” (Ephe-sians 5:30-32) God takes the marriage vows very seriously. A marriage made in heaven has a strong and solid commitment for life.
(Ephesians 5:1-7) Tradi-tional marriage vows have included this statement for a reason, “Whom, there-fore, God hath joined to-gether, let not man put asunder.”
SINCERE RESPECT. Interestingly, husbands are commanded to love their wives as Christ loves the church and wives are com-manded to respect their husbands. “However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself and the wife must respect her husband.” (Ephesians 5:33) A wife needs to know she is loved and a husband needs to know that he is respected.
A marriage made in heaven is built upon making Christ Lord and making a consistent invest-ment of time, thoughtful-ness, forgiveness, a� ection, prayer, mutual respect, and a rock-solid commitment. All Christians need to spend time daily letting the Word of Christ dwell in them richly, for then the Spirit of God can work in our lives to make us joyful, thankful, and submissive. (Colossians 3:16-4:1)

CookingWith Lizzie
Southern Carbohydrate CookingRecently a friend of mind (knowing my deep love of southern cooking) lent me a
cookbook to thumb through called Paula Deen's Southern Cookbook Bible, a classic guide to delicious dishes with more than 300 recipes.
Just know I'm gonna love anything that starts out by saying, "Y'all, I love my carbs." But the fact is, no southern table is complete without a bowl of carbohydrate goodness. I don't care where you are in the south, you'll always � nd pasta, noodles or rice on the table, and today it's not much di� erent. So, speaking of carbohydrates, in famous Paula Deen fashion I'll say, "Hope y'all enjoy the dishes below."
� e Lady's Cheesy Mac2 cups (8 oz.) elbow macaroni 3 large eggs, lightly beaten2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup whole milk or evaporated milk plus extra for topping 1/2 cup sour cream4 T. (1/2 stick) butter, cut into pieces 1/2 tsp. salt
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 13 by 9-inch baking dish with butter, oil, or cooking spray. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the macaroni accord-ing to the package directions. Drain well and transfer to a large bowl. Add the 2 cups cheddar and the butter, stirring until the pasta is coated. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sour cream, and salt. Add the egg mixture to the pasta and stir well to combine. Scrape the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake until golden, 35 to 40 minutes. Take the dish out of the oven and top with extra cheese, then return it to the oven until the cheese is melted and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Serve hot. Serves 4 to 6.
Savannah Red Rice3 T. butter 1 (15 oz.) can crushed tomatoes1 cup chopped yellow onion 1 cup chicken broth1 cup chopped green bell pepper 1 tsp. hot sauce1 cup chopped andouille Pinch of salt or other smoked sausage Pinch of black pepper1 cup long-grain white rice

Add the onion, bell pepper, and sausage and cook until the vegetables so� en, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer. Cook until the sauce begins to thicken, about 10 minutes. Scrape the mixture into the prepared baking dish and cover with foil. Bake until the rice is tender and the sauce is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve hot. Serves 4 to 6.
Southern Brown Rice With Mushrooms3 T. butter 1¾ cups beef broth3/4 cup chopped yellow onion 1/4 tsp. salt1 cup long-grain white rice Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish1 (4 oz.) can sliced mushrooms, drained

Add the rice and mushrooms and cook, stir-ring to coat with the butter, for about 2 minutes. Pour in the broth and add the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender, 17 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Flu� with a fork. Serve garnished with parsley. Serves 4.

If the New Hampshire primary doesn't tell you where the country is, nothing will. A self proclaimed socialist and a real estate tycoon who hasn't voted in a primary since the 80s came out ahead. � e clear winners: Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. Americans are fed up with the traditional politicians and the end result of New Hampshire says it all.
Enough is enough!
In the past, New Hampshire has been good to the Clintons — probably too good — but instead of heart this time, the voters of New Hampshire used their heads.
What's Hillary Clinton missing? A message. She has the 15 second elevator pitch, but playing the word associa-tion game, the same word pops up with the majority: Liar! � at tells the whole story.
� ere were 23 Republican delegates at risk in New Hampshire and 32 Democratic delegates.
So does the size of the victory in New Hampshire matter? In my opinion, the answer is yes. The young people were brought into it. � at's a separate story to be told. And Bernie held the young, and will hold strong with them in the long run. However, keep in mind it's one state at a time.
At 7:00 p.m. last Tuesday evening, as 23 polls were closing, the turnout was in-credible. Many at that point were not just coming in to vote but registering, and at 7:00 anyone in line was counted. At 7:01 it was too late! Many were first time voters.
� e Secretary of State of New Hampshire made the call at that point. Wow! What I found fascinating is anyone in a tra� c line was deemed in line to be able to register or vote, and if the State Police of New Hampshire said they looked like they were in line to register or vote, they could.
Is this a � rst, or what?In the end, on the
Democratic side, in order of importance was:
33% voted on Equality Issues;
25% Healthcare;8% Terrorist Activities.
� e GOP:30% Economic Issues;25% Terrorist Activities;2 7 % G o v e r n m e n t
Spending;15% Immigration.
At 7:45 p.m it was an-nounced a winner might be declared and at 8:00 p.m. MSNBC declared the pro-jected winners: Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.
What this says loud and clear is many Americans don't see America as great any more and feel that Barack Obama has transformed our country against the people's will with everything from racial divide to class warfare.
At the end of the evening Rachel Maddox said Sanders and Clinton split the � rst two states. Sorry, Rachel. Clinton stole Iowa by the � ip of a coin, but in typical Maddox antics and wishful thinking, no such luck, sweetheart. Let's see her defend Bill for saying, "It wasn't Hillary's job to oversee security in Benghazi."
� ese two people couldn't be any worse, and you don't need a magnifying glass to see it. Bill, whose job was it?
Oh well, in the end, at 8:00 p.m. the message from new Hampshire was loud and clear. Hillary was at 38% and Sanders was over 60%.
Hillary conceded in typical Clinton gutless wonder fashion! But I would point out as well I lost all respect for former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright last week when she said, "There is a place in hell for women who don't support other women." I have a lot to say to Ms. Albright, but it's not printable.
In 24 hours a� er the New Hampshire primary Bernie
raised $6 million, with the average being $34 per contri-bution.
On to the last GOP debate, just days before the Nevada Caucuses. In 2016 the Democrats will hold their caucuses on Feb. 20 and the GOP will be on Feb. 23 (sep-arate caucuses).
During the GOP debate, the gloves came off and it quickly became a verbal slug-fest. It was all out war, espe-cially between Jeb and Donald Trump. In my opinion, there was no clear winner.
� e weekend ended in the sad news that the longest serving Supreme Court Justice died. Justice Antonin Scalia (1936 – 2016) died at age 79, the father of 9 and grandfather of 35. He was a man that deeply believed in the U.S. Constitution, and was a great defender of the Constitution, unlike Obama who violates it at every opportunity.
So what's next? Mitch McConnell has already de-clared the line is drawn and Barack Obama won't name the next justice, so there's no point in him trying! And I absolutely agree with this. Obama should not name the replacement for Scalia. � at should be up to the next President — Republican or Democrat. A lame duck POTUS should not be allowed to tip the balance of the Supreme Court for years to come. But leave it to Obama to try.
In closing, I didn't always agree with Justice Scalia, but I always respected him!
Until next week.

Finicky Cats Stage Hunger Strikes
D E A R P A W ’ S CORNER: I’m writing in regards to your recent column about the causes of � nicky eating in pets. My two cats don’t like liver or the smell of liver. However, most wet cat food contains chicken or beef “byproducts,” which usually means some amount of liver. If my cats smell liver in their food, they just won’t eat it, and will go hungry and meow about it — usually in the middle of the night.
By trial and error, I have found about � ve or six different cans they really like to eat. However, some days they gobble the
food down and other days they go on a hunger strike, even with foods they liked the last time. When that happens, I pick up the bowl and smell it. Every single time it smells like liver, and I have to throw it out.
� ey also like variety in their wet food, although I never have had to switch their dry food.
I wish cat food manu-facturers would not add any liver at all, but almost all cat food has byproducts in it. I hope my experience helps your other readers. — Kathy in Sacramento
DEAR KATHY: Many thanks for sharing this! I too have dealt with this issue. � e struggle then becomes � nding another � avor or brand of food that the cat will tolerate.
O� en that boils down to buying a much more expensive brand that doesn’t contain byprod-ucts. But that can be dif-ficult for many cat owners. Readers, what
tips do you have for cat owners trying to deal with � nicky eaters? Send

Already paired? Good. In that case, be sure to reas-sure that special person of your feelings.BORN THIS WEEK: Your generos-ity gladdens the hearts of others, and you bask in their joy.
• It was American jour-nalist and poet Max Eastman who made the following sage observa-tion: "People who demand neutrality in any situation are usually not neutral but in favor of the status quo."
• When you were in school, you may have had to memorize the names of all 50 states. You probably weren't taught, though, that fully half of those names are derived from the languages of the con-
tinent's native peoples.• Th e declarations that
the physical book is dead have been overstated (as I've always maintained). In a recent survey of college students, 72 percent of respondents made known their prefer-ence for print textbooks over ebooks; only 27 percent of this youthful, tech-savvy demographic said they preferred the electronic version.
• Th ose who study such
things report that beloved British author Charles Dickens was adamant that he always sleep with his head pointing north. He even carried a compass with him everywhere to ensure proper position-ing.
• If you're a fan of James Bond, you may be sur-prised to learn that Ian Fleming, the creator of that notorious character, also wrote the beloved children's book "Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang," based on bedtime stories the author made up for his young son.
• If you're traveling in China and propose a toast in someone's honor, be sure you're holding the
glass with both hands; only rude people — and unenlightened foreigners — use just one hand.
• Clyde Barrow was already a notorious crim-inal when he wrote a letter to Henry Ford in 1934 complimenting him on the "dandy" automobile he'd made. � e Ford V-8 was Barrow's preferred getaway car. Just a month later, Bonnie and Clyde were killed in a stolen Ford Deluxe V-8 in a shootout with police.
