George Santer has alwaysloved cars. He got his first car
when he was 20, a 1946 Chevy.
He got rid of it about an hour
after he got it because it wasnt
worth keeping. His next car was
a 1957 Oldsmobile. He got it in
Kansas City while going to
school. He kept that car for a
while. In all George estimates hehas owned around 35 vehicles.
George grew up and went to
school in Osakis. After school he
traveled about, and went to
many colleges around the coun-
try. Hes lived in Browerville for
about 30 years now. He has
three children, Nick, Angie, and
Stephanie. George has done carmaintenance and custom jobs
for people and himself through-
out the years.
One project he is working on
now, is a 1971 Chevy C10. This
has been his project for the last

ollars, and there are four pri-
mary funding sources:
Tax revenues property taxes
budgeted in 2010 at just under
12.1 million
Intergovernmental revenues
eimbursements for administra-
on of State and Federalrograms, State Aid Highway
unds and County Program Aids
budgeted in 2010 at just under
10 million
Charges for services fees
harged by the County for servic-
s, mostly charges to health care
rograms such as Medicare,
Medicaid and private insurance
udgeted in 2010 at just under
3.4 million
Miscellaneous and other rev-
nues grants, donations, build-
ng rental fees budgeted in
010 at just under $1.5 million.
Property taxes account for
about 44% of Todd Countys
funding. There are many rev-
enue sources that may go to fund
a specific program area. For the
2010 budget, property tax dol-
lars are allocated as follows:
General government pro-
vides for administration, build-
ing expenses, insurances, man-
dated library expenditures and
technology 15%Public safety provides for
patrol, county jail, probation,
prosecution and mandated
expenses related to public
defender services 24%

istration, maintenance of land
records and administration of
the countys land use ordinance

Community services pro-
vides for vulnerable adult and
child protection, administration

public health services and veter-
ans services 33%
Public works maintenance
and enhancement of the countys
highway system 18%
Each year in September,
County Boards are required by
the State to submit a prelimi-
nary levy to the State for certifi-
cation. The Todd County Board
has been diligent to keep proper-ty taxes to a reasonable level,
and has maintained the levy at a
rate lower than the State aver-
age for the past two years. For
2011, the Todd County Board has
directed staff to prepare a budg-
et which includes no levy
increase. On July 13, a prelimi-
nary budget was presented to
the Board in accordance with
this directive.
Next time How are property
taxes calculated?

Help with Medicareprescription drugcosts is available
Around this time of year, those
who have Medicare Part D pre-
scription drug coverage may see
themselves becoming closer to the
donut hole. The donut hole is the
gap in coverage in which an indi-
vidual will have to pay full price for
prescription drugs until over
$4,000 is paid out-of-pocket. Many
Medicare beneficiaries may have
trouble paying for prescription
drugs in the donut hole, if not
before. Help is available.
Medicare beneficiaries mayapply for Extra Help, also known
as Low Income Subsidy (LIS)
through the Social Security
Administration to receive assis-
tance paying for their Medicare
prescription drug costs. If someone
qualifies for Extra Help they will
pay a lower drug plan premium,
smaller annual deductible and
lower co-insurance and co-pays for
coverage prescription drugs. The
monthly income guidelines
requires individuals to have less
than $1,353.75 monthly income
and couples to have less than
$1,821.25 for a monthly income.
Individuals must also have assetsless than $12,510 and assets for
couples may not exceed $25,010.
There are different levels of Extra
help available depending upon
income and resource limits. Call
the Senior LinkAge Line at 1-
800-333-2433 for assistance with
completing an Extra help applica-
tion or for help understanding the
Medicare prescription drug benefit.
Help is available over the phone or
in-person. Senior LinkAge Line is
a free service of the MN Board on
Aging. Call 1-800-333-2433 for
assistance or go to

If the battery for my trolling
motor was a year or two old, it
would have been much easier to
ive it up for lost. Since it was
nly three weeks old, my inner
heap self could not let it go. Ive
een told, especially by my wife
nd sons, that I am so tight I
queak. I prefer to think of it as
eing frugal. Frugality sent me
attery diving Sunday after-
oon.
The day started by going over
o the cabin to clean the up the
ranches and acorns that had
washed onto the lawn. My wife
ecided to mow while I raked,
tacked and burned. The storm
hat flipped my boat and lost my
attery had also made a mess of
he area. Trees along the edge of
he timber had limbs broken off
nd large areas of grass in the
asture was laying flat. It must
ave been a heck of a storm.
When a person is doing a
mindless activity such as mow-
ng or raking up piles of acorns,
gives one plenty of time tohink. I thought about how far
the battery could be from the
dock. Surely not far. How much
damage could soaking in the bot-
tom of the lake do to a battery. It
more than likely would not have
a charge but would probably not
be ruined. When I got done rak-
ing, my wife was still happily
cruising around the lawn. Too
much thinking accompanied by
time to act is not always a goodthing.
I went up on the dock,
stripped down, and dove in. I
might mention, our lake is pri-
vate and well off the road. I
swam to the bottom near the
dock where I thought the battery
would most likely be. Trying to
keep an organized search I cov-
ered the mud and sand, feeling
with my hands. Much to my sur-
prise, after several dives, I found
something that was not my bat-
tery. I surfaced for a breath of air
and returned to retrieve a
trolling motor. Im not sure
whose trolling motor it was, but
I dont remember losing one. Itwas quite nice, at one time, but
several years at the bottom of
the lake had taken off most of its
luster.
I jumped up on the dock to
take a break about the same
time my wife took a turn toward
the dock on her mower. The star-
tled look on her face was price-
less. She looked at me and
whipped around to check out the
driveway, sure that someone
would be pulling in. I was not
nearly as concerned. Even if
someone did drive down the
driveway, how exciting would it
be to see a shiny white old guyon the dock? I went back to my
systematic search. After several
more dives, I found a piece of
pipe that had been part of a pre-
vious dock. I finally gave up, got
dressed, and went to the porch
for a break. My wife finished
about that time and we sat
enjoying the view and the quiet
of the lake.
We had been relaxing only a
few minutes when Damon, Amanda, and Zane pulled up.
Zane played with the dogs on the
freshly mown lawn while the
adults discussed our weekend up
to that point. When I told
Damon about diving for my bat-
tery (leaving out a few details)
he got up, grabbed a tent pole, a
roll of electrical tape, and a fish-
ing net. We headed to the lake
with renewed confidence in find-
ing the battery. I showed him the
area I had searched. He reached
just beyond my final search area
and found something hard and
heavy almost immediately.
Leaving my clothes on this time,
I jumped in and followed his tentpole to the bottom. I grabbed the
battery and tried to swim to the
surface. A person would be sur-
prised how difficult it is to swim
with a fifty pound battery. I was
finally able to bounce off the bot-
tom and push the battery above
the surface where Damon could
grab it.
When I checked it out, I
couldnt believe the findings. The
battery was fine and was even
still charged. There is nothing
wrong with being frugal and
determined. A person might
have to risk a bit of embarrass-
ment at times, but the moneysavings are well worth it.

Todd County WIC promotes a community
supportive of breastfeeding during
Minnesota Breastfeeding Awareness MonthTo the editor:
Recent study shows that recommended level of breastfeeding could save $13 billion per year in U.SAugust is Minnesota Breastfeeding Awareness Month, in conjunction with World Breastfeeding Week
Aug. 1-7. In honor of this observance, the Todd County WIC program and other organizations throughouthe world are working to increase awareness of and support for breastfeeding.
The importance of breastfeeding for both mother and baby has been well established in numeroustudies. One of the latest studies, published in the May 2010 issue of Pediatrics, shows that breastfeed-ing can also significantly reduce health care costs and prevents deaths.
According to the authors of The Burden of Suboptimal Breastfeeding in the United States, If 90 percent of U.S. families could comply with medical recommendations to breastfeed exclusively for sixmonths, the United States would save $13 billion per year and prevent an excess 911 deaths, nearly alof which would be infants.
Unfortunately, women face many barriers that can keep them from breastfeeding to recommended levels. That is why Todd County WIC program is working to spread the word that everybody has a role insupporting breastfeeding. It is important for everyone in the community to support breastfeeding, saidMonica Hansen, Todd County WIC Coordinator. This includes families, friends, employers, child careproviders, the health care system, faith communities and many others.
Breastfeeding Just 10 steps! The Baby-Friendly Way is this years worldwide breastfeeding theme. Iwas chosen to draw attention to the 10 steps that help support breastfeeding in hospitals. These ten stepcan be adapted to clinics, public health agencies, and other settings. The ten steps are:
1. Have a written breastfeeding policy that is routinely communicated to all health care staff.2. Train all health care staff in skills necessary to implement this policy.3. Inform all pregnant women about the benefits and management of breastfeeding.4. Help mothers initiate breastfeeding within a half-hour of birth.5. Show mothers how to breastfeed and how to maintain lactation, even if they should be separated
from their infants.6. Give newborn infants no food or drink other than breast milk unless medically indicated.7. Practice rooming-inallowing mothers and infants to remain together for 24 hours a day.8. Encourage breastfeeding on demand.9. Give no artificial teats or pacifiers (also called dummies or soothers) to breastfeeding infants.10. Foster the establishment of breastfeeding support groups and refer mothers to them on discharg
from the hospital or clinic.There are many simple things, like these ten steps, that we can do to support breastfeeding women
infants and families in our community, said Monica Hansen. If we all work together, we can improve thehealth of our babies and mothers and also save health care costs and lives.

A disenchanted American voterTo the editor:I am a disenchanted American voter. If I did my job like many in Washington or St. Paul do, Id have been out of business 40
ars ago.Over the years we have voted for the right people to run our government and spend our tax money. Like any employee, they
ould come under scrutiny from time to time.So here goes! The people weve elected also appoint other people to run our government, judges, czars, cabinet people, heads
departments and various bureaucratic employees. We, the people, have little control over the appointees actions. Our only con-l of the appointees s through the people we elect, not a very direct way.Quite often the appointees do the dirty work and the elected guy can claim to not be responsible for it. It then appears that werewith our guy, and we re-elect him.But here in Minnesota and America they have spent all the tax money, some of it on the dumbest regulation and projects imag-
able. If we think about it for a minute we can come up with examples of this. But it doesnt stop there. Its gotten so bad that new
xes have to be raised, retirement accounts are devalued, IOUs issued and more inflationary dollars printed.A lot of this wasted money is intended to buy votes for the politicians. If the politicians keep their jobs, the appointees keep theirs.us our money is spent on Pork projects that cost more than they are worth. In the process, our national debt gets raised.The contract of employment for many of our elected officials ends November 2. Do we renew their job or replace them? The old
ogans hes one of us or hell fight for us dont make it anymore. Look where we are, look at where were going. Now ask your-lf, is it time to elect new people to government?It seems to be an easy question.Bob Thompson, Pelican Rapids
For the recordTo the editor:
We have a few concerns with Mr. Winklers article Its weather in the 7/22/10 issue of the
Blade.
When Mr. Winkler came hurrying down our driveway and asked if he could go out on our dock
to talk to those people, he really had no idea what was happening at the end of the dock. When
he reached them he started talking at them. You shouldnt be on the lake in this weather. Youneed to get off the lake, get to your buggy and find shelter. There is a deputy west of the lake that
might give you shelter. He went on to add there are more bad storms coming from the NW, but
were not expected until around midnight. He then looked at me and said he had to get going. there
were some bad looking clouds to the NW. His scolding lasted 3-4 minutes and he was on his way.
Ten minutes prior to his arrival the four Amish men, ranging in age from 15 to 70s were sitting
on our patio under an 8 foot overhang, having refreshments, visiting with my family and watching
the weather.
When the first sign of bad weather started coming over the lake, the four Amish gentlemen
headed for the public access, as did everyone else on the lake. By the time they reached our dock
(rowing) the wind and rain had started, so I invited them up to take shelter. They were here an hour
or so when they tried to take advantage of a break in the storm and head for the access. That was
when Mr. Winkler arrived. After he hurried off we discussed what was said concerning the oncom-
ing storms and decided they would stay at our place awhile longer. About two hours later, after
checking the weather maps and a neighbor with a scanner, Staples was clear. No new storm warn-
ings for 20 minutes. We got their buggy and trailer, hauled their boat up to the road and the four
Amish gentlemen were on their way home.
The Amish do not need safety classes on bad weather and tornados. They have had years ofwhats called on the job training. If Mr. Winkler would have taken a minute to stop and assess the
situation, ask me a couple of questions, this incident would not have happened. We did appreci-
ate the current weatehr info he gave us.
