Ag Math Day brings hands on farming to Victor Ornelas
Finney County Extension agents Deniston and Addison joined with Farm Bureau groups to host Ag Math Day at Victor Ornelas Elementary. First graders explored animal stations with hens rabbits goats and a pony while measuring pumpkins weighing corn and milo using weights and bushels. Students learned how organic matter breaks down via worms and how math ties to agriculture in a playful hands on setting.

Shortage of Kansas wardens strains wildlife law enforcement
Qualified Kansas applicants face testing on wildlife knowledge and hunting, fishing, and boating rules, plus fitness and firearms training. Six months of training follow, with state academy weeks and field rides. Four trainees remain, none ready for the December deer season. Rural postings deter applicants, and wardens juggle multi county coverage and expanding duties from hunting to deer poaching stakeouts and investigations.
