Shoultz, Pike County resi- dent (1905 -1981), met at VFW post #3587 on Saturday, Sept. 26 to share memories of their beloved father. Three daugh- ters and three sons of Ozzie's were present, as well as all of their children and grandchil- dren. In attendance were: Doyal Shoultz, of Winslow, Carl and Woody Shoultz, of Melbourne, Fla., Tony Shoultz, of Brycev- ille, Fla., Mike and Lois Lee- berg, of Gosport, Ind., Car- roll and Debbie Harrellson, of Ridgeway, Ill., Gloria and Son Phillip, of Sullivan, Ill., Mike Campton, of Columbus, Ohio, Paul Bryant, of Phoe- nix, Ariz., Pam and Kathy Brewster, Bonnie Brewster and Roger Morton, all of Pe- tersburg, Jerrod and Susan Meyers, of Longview, Texas, Marvin and Shirley Freeman, of Shelbyville, Ill., Teena, Ry- an and Mariah Windell, and Jim and Carol Greenwell, all of Evansville, Amy Hook, of New Palestine, Don and Ann Bow- ers, with daughter, Lily, son, Ethan, and wife, Allison, all of Terre Haute, Joe Leeberg, of Spencer, Bob and There- sa Mathews, of Benton, Ky., Amanda, Reece and Raygen Ford, of Vincennes, and Dan- ny and Karen Bryant, of Ore- ana, Ill. As harvest continues, real- ized yields are contrasting with realized prices in a way that may cre- ate a bit of mis- placed optimism. The Ag Economy Barometer has al- ready reflected some of this opti- mism, with addi- tional optimism likely to be ex- pressed as gov- ernment programs continue to roll out. Between now and when grain is completely sold, a lot of uncertainty has to be navigated. Positivity abounds. Corn yields in this area have been coffee shop positive. I use the term "coffee shop positive" to refer the urge to inflate yields told to neighbors at the coffee shop by a modest amount. The previous record corn yield for Posey County according to the National Agriculture Statistics Service is 197.3 bushels per acre, reported for 2014. Early re- ports suggest we may be on par with this kind of num- ber. Early reports on soybeans are a little more variable, but the number to beat for Posey County is 57.8 bushels per acre, also set in 2014. Gib- son County numbers are 58.5 bushels per acre for soybeans set in 2017, with the corn record being set at 195.3 in 2014. The Coronavirus Food As- sistance Program (CFAP) an- nounced last week sign-ups are underway for phase two of farm- er payments based on commod- ity price drops between Jan. and July of this year. Some species of crops that do not meet the price-trigger payments are still eligible for a flat rate payment. Applications for this round of payments must be complet- ed by Dec. 11. The dry weath- er also translates into a certain amount of positivity, as work in the fields can continue unabat- ed, crops are able to dry down quickly, and fieldwork can be completed without an unnec- essary amount of compaction. Rounding out the big positives, trade seems to be continuing on the field crop side with reports of increased demand for corn from China. Reason for high caution ex- ists. Current prices are not ex- cellent. Corn and soybean pric- es are coming off lows not seen for a decade or more. The soy- bean market has rallied much better than the corn market in recent days, but price expecta- tions for the future once areas to the north begin harvest in ear- nest are modest. Especially con- sider the amount of grain stor- age that no longer exists in Io- wa due to the Derecho and the amount of grain that may en- ter the market directly rather than being stored for the win- ter. Per the CFAP, government program sign-ups cannot be processed during a shutdown, a possibility that will hopefully be remedied by the time this ar- ticle is read. The dry weather is quickly progressing toward drought status, which makes ev- erything a little more combusti- ble and could make cover crop and wheat plantings delayed on emergence. On the livestock side, processors are still run- ning at full capacity, increas- ing the amount of planning re- quired for local producers. Some current issues are com- pletely uncertain. Will China buy enough to meet Phase 1 trade deal agreements? Farm policy hinges on the Novem- ber election. The consumption of agricultural products during a pandemic has become a little more predictable than it was in April, but consumer habits as the seasons change and poten- tial vaccines catch news head- lines may introduce new waves of different eating habits. At least we can agree that all but the most dedicated sourdough starter is now dead.

Winslow and Petersburg se- niors will not meet again un- til Governor Holcomb gives the okay. Sweets Column, Winslow, IN 47598 received no post- cards this week, but we do have one point of interest. Winslow Patoka River is still low with no rain as of yet, but with the rains com- ing up from Texas and Louisi- ana, Winslow could get some sprinkles. The mowers are not heard as much with cooler temps of 70s through the day and between 40s and 50s at night. The heater was turned on and so was the wood stove. The leaves are changing their colors to yellow and some a brownish color, since this fall season has begun. It won't be too long and the yards will be covered with leaves to rake up and jump into. Saturday, September 19, George and Deby brought Mom over here for a two-week visit and she brought three purple mums for the flower garden. Purple is my favor- ite color. Moms also brought a big satchel of pictures from the Meyers and the Virdens. Kyana also was down for the weekend and gave me a sur- prise when she walked into the yard. Our dog saw her first and ran over to get her greet- ing of hugs. Sunday was a great day to get away, so Laura and Kya- na drove to Evansville, and Norm, Mom and I started our day by strolling through Hor- nady Park, where families were fishing, walking, cut- ting hair and having a reunion of friends. Ducks were sleep- ing and the splash park was empty. Bowman has a few new houses and one is built not too far from the river. Lots of corn and bean fields, some are cut down, but lots more are not ready as of yet. Hazleton has houses on the many hills with small streets and their yards have been decorated for the autumn season. Decker is smaller than Winslow, where the schoolhouse is board- ed up and is now a place for big logs. The town has small streets and their yards had the fall decorations out. The White River is below its banks and Hwy. 41 has construction on the bridge. We went to Vin- cennes to show Mom the Mil- itary Museum of planes, heli- copters and artillery guns. We drove by the George Rogers Clark Memorial, and the mu- ral of Red Skelton and his ma- ny characters he played. We have a great time when we take our drives through the countrysides, as we see the trees change colors, what field will be harvested and the many yards as the owners set up for the season, even some had the Halloween spirit. Al- so, you can see deer and wild turkeys in the fields. Did you know that the Dog- wood tree with red berries are the female tree? Vernon has one by his carport and now I have seen the red berries on our Dogwood tree. They can be seen in the top, where the white blooms were. The 13th Pike County Trac- tor Drive was last Saturday, September 26, and hopefully I was able to go and see more of the backroads of Pike Coun- ty, so next week you will hear all about it. We have just heard from the news that phase 5 has begun in Indiana, where more places can have more people come in and eat or exercise and more. This also means that wearing your mask is also implement- ed. So use caution, but be safe. Our Pike Central High School football team had to cancel their Friday night game be- cause of COVID-19. Don't be too relaxed, because this virus is still around. Yes, I'm with all of you that we wish we could all get back to doing what we want to do and go where we want to go without the wor- ry of catching something or worse. Time to stop talking as the lights dim on this week. Keep an eye on family and friends. Slow down and see all the wonders in your area. Stop for school buses and children walking to school. As always, smile, wave and say "hi" to ev- eryone you see this week.
