News Blue Rapids Free Press - Thursday, October 18, 2012 Home Notes... By Susan A. Latta - CEA Marshall County Extension Agent Children go to school to learn, but parents and care givers should be teaching their children social-emotional skills long before the kids get to preschool. Social-emotional skills are skills that help children know how to behave in social settings, and how to express and handle emotion. For children to succeed in school, children need to know how to follow directions. To learn this skill, start with something simple like “Take your plate and put it in the dishwasher.” Repetition helps with learning. Another example is playing a game because they must follow the rules. Children must know how to pay attention in a classroom. Blue Rapids Auto & Hardware NAPA Auto Parts Do It Best Hardware Hunting & Fishing Licenses Hydraulic Hoses • Saw Chains Corn Stoves • Ammunition Infrared Heaters Reading a book or performing one activity for an extended period of time helps children gradually increase their attention span. As children are expanding their attention span, adults may have to help children. For example, adults could show children many different ways of stacking blocks and encourage them as they play with the blocks. Another crucial skill is knowing how to share and take turns which helps them be considerate of others. Parents and care givers must guide children through this process so children understand the importance of sharing. Instead of saying, we need to share and grabbing a toy away from the child, adults need to explain why they must share and set a good example by doing it themselves. 10 Public Square, Blue Rapids, Kansas 66411 785-363-7384 Prairie Valley Veterinary Clinic Don Musil, DVM Nicole Porter, DVM 821 Hwy 9 Phone: 785.363.7903 Blue Rapids, Ks 66411 We have Hill’s Prescription and Science Diet Dog & Cat Food Boarding and Grooming Services Available Children must also learn how to solve problems with words instead of getting angry. A child who screams and yells does not know how to express his or her emotion in a healthy way. Instead of immediately scolding, ask them what they could have done instead of getting angry. Then have them practice the right behavior. For younger children, learning can be done with praise. Children need about five positive interactions to every negative interaction to keep on learning. Do not just scold them for doing wrong; praise them for doing something right. However, if a child has a negative behavior, such as biting or kicking, he or she will need 13 positive interactions for every negative interaction to change the behavior. At the core of teaching children social-emotional skills is parents and care givers building relationships with their Challenges For Soybean Harvest Michael Vogt Marshall County Extension Agent In our area, many soybean farmers have been harvesting soybeans because the pods and seeds are brown and dry, but the leaves and stems are still green. This makes harvesting soybeans this year more challenging. Our recent hard freeze killed the leaves and stems, but it still may take a while for the leaves to drop. Producers can either harvest these soybeans now if the seed moisture is dry enough, or wait until the leaves have dropped. In most cases, it would be best to harvest sooner rather than later to reduce losses from shattering and lower seed quality. Harvesting soybeans before the leaves have dropped can be Classifieds...

Make sure harvesting equipment is sharp and in top condition, and take it slow in the field. What caused this unusual situation this year? It’s most likely due to a combination of stress, low pod counts, and late rains. In a normal situation, soybeans will accumulate carbohydrates and proteins in the leaves and stems up until seeds begin to form (R5). The leaves provide the photosynthates needed by the newly formed seeds as they begin filling. As the seeds continue to get bigger, their need for photosynthates will eventually become greater than what the leaves can provide through normal photosynthesis.

This can be referred to as “cannibalization” of the vegetative tissue, but it’s a normal process. This eventually causes leaves to turn yellow and drop, and the stems to turn brown and die. This year, however, some fields had far fewer pods than normal. Stress conditions around flowering caused flower drop or pod abortion. Corn earworms and other insects can also cause low pod counts. When pod counts are unusually low, the demand for carbohydrates and proteins by developing seeds is low enough that plants may not need to cannibalize the leaves and stems as (877) 369-7885 www.centraltruckdrivingjobs.com Help Wanted/Truck Driver ÒYou got the drive, We have the DirectionÓ OTR Drivers APU Equipped Pre-Pass EZpass passenger policy.

Talk and listen to your child and get to know his or her likes and dislikes. Laugh and joke with them. Give them changes to make decisions, such as which shirt they want to wear to school to help them understand the importance of making their own decisions. Parents and care givers should keep in mind children need time to learn, so adults must provide patient reminders and explanations repeatedly over a period of time. Adults must consistently model good and healthy behaviors for the children. In the end, children cannot be expected to behave like adults because they are still kids. What is important is they learn age appropriate socialemotional skills that help them make friends, work well with others, and succeed in school. extensively as normal. As a result, the leaves and stems retain their photosynthates longer, and can remain green even up through physiological maturity of the beans. Late-season rainfall can make the problem worse by keeping the plants alive as the seeds have dried down. It will take either a frost or a desiccant to kill the leaves and stems in this situation. If the leaves are still green and intact when pods have turned brown and have reached 13-14% moisture, it’s almost always an indication of midseason stress around flowering/pod set and low yield potential – at least relative to the amount of foliage produced..
