Waste collection gear gives agency headaches BY DIANNE STALLINGS Rl!ll>OSO NI':W~ .S"J"AH" WRJTF.JI:

In a three-day period about the time a storm dropped 24 inches of snow on the county, one engine and two transmis­sions blew on garbage collec­tion equipment of the Lincoln County Solid Waste Authority.

last week on the staff's scram­ble to collect garbage from dumpsters and polycarts by hand, using pick up trucks and anything else that would move.

Eneugh equipment is run­ning again to handle ·i-egular collection, he said, but added, "We don't have any spares. We got a rebuilt transmission for a side loader and it died after three hours. It was just a bad transmission."

General manager Rick Simpson reported to his board

"Of course, our new collec­tion truck was in Albuquerque getting warranty work done," Simpson· said Friday. "We ended up using all hands div­~ng into garbage _head first. We

had three crews out with pick­ups doing the polycarts. I don't think people realized we even had a problem. ·

graph and a new photo of the same view. That was the catalyst that started his side line in 1991. Since then Fuchs has collect-. ed several binders of photographs from the USGS, individuals, families and groups. ~ .

Members of the Carrizozo Soil and Water Conservation District board real­izffi the importance of the comparisons and have undervvritt.en the cost-of the film and processing for a future publication. However, Fuchs searches for the locations on his own time.

Sometimes, it takes years and pl~nty of help. A few views he still hasn't identi­fied:

SGlme of the comparisons, such as the one from the hill overlooking Nogal and Vera Cruz Mountain, show the encroach­ment of junipers and other woody plants. Others illustrated an improved range with grasses instead of cactus and scrub.

1b me the thing in seeking out old sites is that you have to develop a mind­set," he said. "We tend to think of the past in terms of the way they are now and our life experiences and we have to lose that to understand the past. .

"Now Ruidoso is the population center, but that's a very recent development. Areas like V\-'hite Oaks, Carrizozo, Nogal and Hondo were far more important than

Ruidoso. The only place that appeared on maps showing Texas and half ofNew Mex­ico in 1845 was Carrizo· Springs, which is north of present day Carrizozo. It was an extremely important watering hole then."

Fuchs shares his comparison photos through presentations to groups such as the Lincoln Cormty Histolical Society. Word of mouth often results in someone coming up with a new photo. Johnson Ste.arns, a local historian involved in Car­rizozo and Nogal government .and real es­tate, heard of Fuchs' interest and loaned him several to copy,· ·

"I showed a: display at the Lincoln County Fair years ago, and an individual recognized one as a photo ofhis fa.mily"s old homestead," Fuchs said. "He wanted a copy and we did an exchange for photos he had.

"In virtually all but one case·out oflOO retakes, there have been significant in­creases in woodY vegetation and that's even at the lowest elevation, although not as much change in the desert. Our work primarily is to help land users solve con­servation, erosion and land use problems. 'Ib know where we need to go, it's impor­tant to know where we've been. There are a lot of biological questions to wh.ich any serious person interested in managing the land needs to know the answers. Is it bet­ter to spend money to fix the problem or back off and let nature take its course?''

From his personal observation, Fuchs

sees the disappearance of meadows whe:re big game congregated.to graze· on tall grass and the views were open. Trees and brush have replaced the:m, he said.

"The cause is not just fire suppression, although it has contributed," he said. · ·

In the past, wHd fires or fires set by Mescalero Apache to flush out game knocked doWn junipers, cacti and swept through grasses that quickly sprang back ..

Unchecked by fire, the natural pro­gression ofvegetatiori succession goes from annual grasses and forbs· (herbs) to peren­nial grasses and forbs to hardwood and shrub oak to evergreen.

"Fire causes that progression to shift. back," Fuchs said, adding that fire scarred tree material in Ruidoso from the pre-set­tlement period shows fires occun-ed every . six to seven years.

~ile some people considered Sreas with many trees more attractive, woody plants tend to suck up more underground: water and with their canopies prevent rain· and snow from hitting the forest floor. Both result is less recharge of the underground: water supply, Fuchs explained. .

That scenario was illustrated this year. after fires bumed more than 8,000 acres of' forest near Ruidoso and long-dormant springs began bubbling out of the ground. again, he said. .

'lb the editor: What is Nov. li? What does

itmean·toyou? . . This is not a:trick-qtiesti·on."

In case yot.\ don't !<now, Nov. 11 is Veterans Day, a day that obvi­ously . doesn't_ mean much to some of _yotr ... other than you · get a dey off of work. Well, to the veterans ·and their families, it is- a day to rememhl;!r and

show appreciation to. our veter­ans and soldiers that tbught to give us .. the freedom that we all enjoy today. Nov:. 11 at 11 a.m. is the anniyersary Qf the end 'of World War I, and is called Vet­erans Day to honor all Wterans.

It rna~ me real sed and very disappointed that very few if any flags were out .for Veter­ans. DO¥. _And at . the annual ... · flag rmsmg ceremonies there were but· a few iri attendance. And of those there, they were mostly the veterans and their families. Less than a handful of others wanting tO give thanks_ to our veterans.

We _all need to stop and think tbr a moment of the il'ee­doms l:hat we have today, and

· realize that we owe our veter~ ana for this freedom. They­fought for us to preserve our· freedom, and a simple show of -appreciation wouldn't hurt a one of us. It means so much to these veterans when they have a good turnout· and people say . think you. It would only take a moment.

As the memory Of each war fades. so does the awareness and appf~iation of the soldiers who ~t in them. However, let _me assure you, the veterans · and their families and the fami­lies of those soldiers that never returned never forget the terri­ble fact of war. The brand of war is stamped on their bodies and their minds. Some will never

agaiD, Walk, or see or hear. Some strap prosthetic atms ot legs to their bodies every morhing of their lives. Others, unable- to fully cope after living through the ·pSychological trauma of combat, Will never find theii­way back to the mainstream of life. Others never returned a.t all. . .

I hope that this note opens your ·eyes· an .... makes you remember what Nov. U _is, and maybe next year on Veterans Day you too . can shoW your · appreciation to ol,li. veterans .. But, do you know what? It does_: n't -have-to be Veterans Day; we should and could give thanks to our veterans every day of our life. - · · · · Anita Ordnrici

GUEST COMMENTARY

A Thanksgiving dinner cost less this year· BY TOM STEEVER AMERJCAN FAltM BURF.AU FEDERATION ·

Calvert Elementary School in Lincoln, Neb .• is much like manY other Schools. But as Kathy Schellpeper's thir.d · grade class pledged allegiance to start the day, there was a bit more ~tement than usual. The yOung people set out on a small fiela trip to get a lesson in the cost of Thanksgiving dinner and ·a lesson in shariilg. Mrs. . Schellpeper•s third graders went grocery shop~ ping. .

When Schellpeper got word of the American :Farm Bureau Federation'• annual Thanks· lrivil\11 Meal Price Survey she Cleterinlned It was an opportu­nity to teach the children the affordability of food in this countrY. "What better time. to think ·about food and the affi>rdability of food. And so, I thought, we11 put a whole les-

Son together," said Schellpeper. ''We'll go down to the grocery · store, We'll buy the food, we'll actually touch it. bring it back here, look at the prices, s~e how !3-ffordable·it re~lly was.~

· Many of· these stud-ents· may lack the opportunity. to get first-hand experience in visiting a fann, accOrding to Mrs. Schellpeper. "I think most children think that food comes· from the grocery stOre," ~he said. "F9r a lOt of children and people as. well, we don't give enough appreciation to ¢-e farmers and ranChers who ·are producing the food~"

· 'lb · AU1!111ent this lesson on !bod's ... due, betbre ootqout tbr tho supetmarkot, the voter· an teacher fil'llt had her pupils write down what they antici­pated the -dinner ·would cost. Pt-QgnosticationS affixed to the chalkboard on Post-it notes ranged from. $2.25 to well over

·---~--~-----·------

$10; however several were in the more realistic range of $20 · to $40.

. oD.ce at the .grocery store, the youngster!:! ·armed with shopping carts and the surveys fanned out · ~n small groups searching for the traditional Thanksgiving meal items SQ · that .pric;:es coUld be recorded arid purchases could be made.

. The survey is· conducted nationwide every year by the

· FRrm Bureau· to track the average· cost of Thanksgi.ving dinqer for 10 pOOple. ThiS year's survey shows that- the ·cost has co:p:ie down compared to Ieist year, The lO_peo_ple can be rem lbr $82.87. That'& $1.48 under last year's coat. A drop in coat of many of the ThankS· giving meal items contributed to the ·decline. The retail price of tq.rkey is down as well as Whole rililk and several other ·items.

. It beca,me a_ simple lesson for the class. 1'Yoti can ·reed ten people "!'ith net a l¢t·ofmon"ey," .said third grader· ·Elizabeth Gealy tbllowing tho trip to the grocery store. . .

The culmination of the morning came with a parade of the . class, each carrying ThanksgiVing grocery items to a waiting truck outside the school.. Tlie meal was do~ated to the Food Bani< of Lincoln,

Before she excus&d the class, Schellpeper gathe~e.d · them near the front of their classroom and .asked them to p~ss the lesson to their friends and tllmily, =~read the news · that we ap leoa on food than any country In whole world." .
