DETROIT (AP) — Under pressure from the federal government, General Motors is recalling more than 3.4 million big pickup trucks and SUVs in the U.S to fix a brake problem.
The recall covers the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups from the 2014 through 2018 model years. Also included are the Cadillac Escalade from 2015 to 2017, and the GMC Yukon and Chevy Suburban and Tahoe from 2015 through 2018.
GM says that as it ages, the pump in the power-assist brakes can put out less vacuum power than needed, increasing stopping distance and the risk of a crash.
The recall comes after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began investigating the problem in November of last year.
Dealers will recalibrate the electronic brake control module at no cost to customers. Owners were to be notified starting Sept. 6.
NHTSA, the government’s road safety agency, began investigating the problem last year after getting 111 complaints from owners of poor brake performance. At the time the agency had nine reports of crashes that had caused two injuries.
GM says the problems occur rarely and mostly at low speeds like driving in parking lots. Even with the problem, the brakes “continue to function and exceed the requirements of the appropriate federal motor vehicle safety standard,” GM spokesman Dan Flores said.
The vacuum pump is lubricated with engine oil that flows through a filter screen. In some of the trucks, oil sludge or other debris can clog the screen, reducing oil flow and causing the pump’s vacuum output to drop, Flores said.
The trucks, he said, have a secondary power brake assist system which works when there are problems with the main system, but it is limited at lower speeds. The reprogramming will activate the secondary system faster.
GM isn’t replacing the pumps because pump failures are rare and already are covered by an extended warranty, Flores said. “This remedy will improve brake performance in any situation where brake vacuum drops,” he said.
The recall comes 10 months after NHTSA opened its investigation. Asked why it took that long to do the recall, Flores said only that the company has been cooperating with NHTSA and providing data.
Drivers could feel a vibration in the brake pedal or a change in pressure required to push the brake pedal if their trucks have the vacuum pump problem. If the problem surfaces, owners will see a message on their dashboard telling them to service the brake assist system, Flores said.
Although the recall is a large number, the cost will not be high enough for GM to report it to the Securities and Exchange commission as an event that will materially affect earnings, Flores said. He said he didn’t know the cost.
Kali Barnett, Democratic candidate for the Kansas 1st District U.S House seat, was in Hays on Tuesday meeting with the Young Democrats and FHSU professors on policy.
Barnett, 34, of Garden City is taking time off from her job as a music teacher to run for the House.
From a third-generation farm family, Barnett said she understands the plight of farmers in the recent trade war.
“It is a really challenging situation we are in,” Barnett said. “I have worked really hard, especially in the last few weeks. I have met with several professors. This afternoon, I am meeting with the ag professor here at Fort Hays State University and working very hard to learn from the experts on ag policy and really have a positive movement for our farmers and support for the future.”
As a teacher, Barnett said she struggled to keep funding for her position as a teacher during the Brownback years.
On the national level in education, she said, “It is really challenging as a teacher to have someone like Betsy DeVos in a leadership position, and it is one of the biggest reasons why I am running.”
Barnett has worked in both public and charter schools, but she said support of charter schools should not come at the expense of public schools.
Barnett stopped short of suggesting a specific fix for health care.
“Health care is a combined issue,” she said. “Health care for me is really taking care of our mind, our body and our soul. We need to make sure we are supporting our mental health care facilities and making sure that our insurances are providing options for people wanting to receive different types of services.
“We need to make sure our insurance system is serving all people — people who have pre-existing positions and emergencies. We need to make sure that our health care facilities remain open, especially here in western Kansas. We cannot allow our hospitals and clinics to not be funded and be closed.”
She continued, “I know even some of my close family use Obamacare as we call it,” she said. “It is not something that we can end today. I do think we can put things in place for the future that would be much more sustainable for working families and much more affordable.”
Growing up in Garden City, Barnett said she learned to appreciate other cultures.
“For me, immigration, the No. 1 thing we need to do right now is love our neighbors,” she said. “We need to make sure we are being inclusive, not exclusive. We are hearing a lot of messages that are making people scared. … It is a lot about embracing the people that we have and the cultures that we have and making sure with immigration policy that we are keeping the United States safe, but it is really making sure that we are taking care of the people who are here.”
Barnett does not have foreign policy experience, but she said she would look to experts to keep the nation safe.
Barnett said she is excited to be bringing a woman’s perceptive to the race. She is the first Democratic woman to file in Kansas’ 1st District. She said she was inspired by Kathryn O’Loughlin, who was elected in 1932 to Congress in what was then western Kansas’ 6th District. O’Loughlin Elementary School in Hays is named for her.
“In a lot of ways, we are already changing the way our Kansas history is written,” she said.
When O’Loughlin was elected, Barnett said Kansas was in a similar political climate. Farmers were frustrated. People were frustrated with the economy.
“It is extremely exciting for me to be in a place with this campaign that as a country we are empowering more women to have a really strong voice. That is what I want to do as a representative is be a voice for our community,” she said. “I want to work really hard to build policy and support policy in Washington, so all of us here in Kansas and across the United States, including teachers and farmers and everyday working members of society like you and me, [can] have a better future.”

Change is in the air. Children have grown over the summer and are starting the new school year a little more grown up. The promise of sunny, brisk days makes many of us excited to breakout hoodies and sweaters. Fall foliage soon will begin to show the colorful signs of a new season, and in coffee shops or local co-ops across the state the conversation has turned to football.
The theme of these conversations has been uncertainty, a mix of nerves and excitement. The legacy and family Kansas State University coach Bill Snyder spent his career building will not be lost overnight. Coach Klieman has a promising record but is unproven in big leagues. What will our team look like under new leadership?
Within my own K-State family, the start of football season had an extra layer of emotion this year. It was the first tailgate without a beloved member of our group. As we gathered in Manhattan, we had plenty of reasons to be optimistic: a fresh season of football, the joy of tailgating and great friends to share in the fun. However, there was the subtle tone of sadness that can be felt when something is missing.
That is the hard part about change; it means you are losing something. Sometimes that loss is big like a loved one or our trusted coach and other times it is smaller like missing the ease of a habit or the annoying feeling that comes from not being able to complete a task in your preferred way. This loss can make us sad, bitter, resentful, heartbroken, mad or hateful.
The other hard thing is, amidst all the negative emotions, understanding that you also gain something with every change.
I experienced my first truly life-altering experience when I was 13. My 16-year-old brother died in a car accident, and it was heartbreaking. Everything in my life changed: relationships with family and friends, appreciation for community and religion, attitude and outlook on life.
Time and maturity have allowed me the perspective to understand how my brother’s death fundamentally altered me. I now know I am strong enough to survive the grief of loss.
That might seem simple, but it is a pivotal paradigm shift. In your greatest moment of grief and fear, if you know you will survive, it totally changes your outlook and actions. You move from, “How can I go on?” to “How will I go on?”
Change always gives us something new. When we make up our minds to embrace the new, opportunities will present themselves. Maybe a new job would make you happier. Changes to a traditional community event could get more people involved. The new football coach is definitely going to bring some great changes to the program. An open and positive mindset makes it easier to get excited about changes.
I no longer fear change because I am always looking for the opportunities it presents. I often find myself asking the big, important questions: What is not working? How can this be better? Where do we go from here?
Sometimes the answers to these questions will fill you with enthusiasm and excitement. Other times they will make your heart sink because change cost you something dear. That’s OK; something good will happen that you don’t know about yet.
Change is inevitable. Change is uncomfortable. Change is good.

ATCHISON, Kan. (AP) — Federal officials are investigating the death of an Indiana man at a northeast Kansas grain processing plant.
The Cargill Ag plant google image
Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie says 26-year-old Angel Silas-Deleon, of Logansport, Indiana, died from an electrical shock Friday at the CargillAg plant in the Cummings area.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has opened an investigation into the death.
Laurie said Silas-Deleon was working on a grain bin with a contractor crew from CCSGroup of Seward, Nebraska. The company said another employee is recovering from injuries suffered by the shock.
That employee’s name and condition were not released Tuesday.
Alfalfa, often considered the “Queen of Forages”, produces high yields that are highly digestible and high in protein. Alfalfa is a very important leguminous crop for dairy and other livestock operations in Kansas. Late summer and early fall are often the best times to plant alfalfa in Kansas due to less weed pressure than spring planting (Figure 1).

Much of Kansas has seen above-average rainfall this summer and soil moisture within the profile is adequate, if not surplus, in many areas. Available moisture at planting is crucial for alfalfa establishment, but too much moisture can increase seedling disease incidence and reduce alfalfa nodulation and nitrogen fixation.
If soil moisture is available, growers in northwest Kansas can plant as early as mid-August. Those in southeast Kansas can plant in mid-to-late September. In other parts of Kansas, the optimal planting time is late August or early September. Producers just need to plant early enough to have three to five trifoliate leaves before the first frost.
Alfalfa is a three- to five-year, or longer, investment and therefore it is crucial to ensure proper establishment. Some producers shy away from alfalfa because of its high establishment cost and risk of stand failure. In the end, however, it is relatively inexpensive, if amortized over the life of the crop.
Under proper management and favorable weather conditions, dryland alfalfa can produce 3 to 6 dry matter tons of forage per acre per year. Irrigated fields can produce 6 to 8 dry matter tons per acre per year or more.
Stacy Campbell is Agriculture & Natural Resources Extension Agent for the Cottonwood Extension District.
When planting alfalfa, producers should keep the following in mind:
Soil test and correct soil acidity. Alfalfa grows best in well-drained soils with a pH of 6.5 to 7.5, and does not tolerate low soil pH. For areas east of the Flint Hills, if the pH drops below 6.4, add lime to raise soil pH to 6.8 before planting. For the Flint Hills and areas west, lime is recommended when the pH drops below 5.8 with a target pH of 6.0. Ensuring appropriate soil pH levels prior to planting is essential, especially as lime is relatively immobile in the soil profile and the field will not be worked for the next 3-5 years. For more information on liming alfalfa fields, see the previous eUpdate article published on July 26, 2019: “Liming prior to fall seeding of alfalfa”.
Soil test and meet fertilization needs. Apply the needed phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) amounts according to soil test recommendations. Phosphorus fertilizer will be required if soil test P levels are below 25 ppm, and potassium fertilizer will be required if soil K levels are below 130 ppm. Even soils that test higher than these thresholds may need additional fertilizer. Small amounts of N fertilizer (15 to 20 lb/acre) as a starter at planting are beneficial for alfalfa establishment.
Plant certified inoculated seed. Ensuring the correct Rhizobium inoculation is crucial for alfalfa seedlings to fix available soil nitrogen to meet the needs of growing alfalfa for optimum production.
Plant in firm, moist soil. A firm seedbed ensures good seed-soil contact; therefore, use a press wheel with the drill to firm the soil over the planted seed. No-till planting in small-grains stubble will usually provide a good seedbed.
Do not plant too deeply. Plant one-fourth to one-half inch deep on medium- and fine-textured soils and three-fourths inch deep on sandy soils. Do not plant deeper than 10 times the seed diameter.
Use the right seeding rate. Plant 8 to 12 pounds of seed per acre on dryland in western Kansas, 12 to 15 pounds per acre on irrigated medium- to fine-textured soils, 15 to 20 pounds per acre on irrigated sandy soils, and 12 to 15 pounds per acre on dryland in central and eastern Kansas. Double drilling, with the second seeding drilled 45 degrees to the first planting can help ensure a good uniform stand. If using the double drill method, each pass should be planted at 50% for the total seed rate to be 100%.
Check for herbicide carryover that could damage the new alfalfa crop – especially when planting no-till alfalfa into corn or grain sorghum stubble. In areas where row crops were drought-stressed and removed for silage, that sets up a great seedbed for alfalfa, but may still bring a risk of herbicide damage.
Choose pest-resistant varieties. Resistance to phytophthora root rot, bacterial wilt, fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt, anthracnose, the pea aphid, and the spotted alfalfa aphid is essential. Some varieties are resistant to even more diseases and insects.
Purchase alfalfa varieties with a fall dormancy rating ranging from 4 – 6 for Kansas. Fall dormancy relates to how soon an alfalfa variety will stop growing in the fall and how early it will begin growing in the spring or late winter. Simply put, it would be better not buy a variety with fall dormancy of 9-10, which can be more suitable for California and regions where alfalfa can keep growing year-round under irrigation.

Principal Tom Albers discusses cafeteria space issues during a recent school board tour of HMS.
By CRISTINA JANNEY Hays Post
Hays Middle School is out of room, Principal Tom Albers told the Hays school board during a tour Monday night.
HMS enrollment is at 686 students, the largest being the sixth-grade class of 248.
The gradually increasing enrollment has meant an already cramped lunch room is faced with even bigger challenges, the school is out of classroom space, has teachers on carts and class sizes are getting even larger.
“Every sixth-grade class is big,” Albers said. “We are talking 24 to 30 kids and some even bigger. We’re tight.”
Albers said he would love to have more electives for the students, but if the district added staff, he said more teachers are need for core courses to reduce class sizes. HMS is offering half-year English classes for seventh- and eight-graders, and they would like to make those full-year classes.
USD 489 school board members tour a special education classroom at HMS.
However, if HMS added staff, there is the question of where they would put the teachers. On carts, move in trailers? The options are limited.
The last renovations to the HMS were finished in 2014, which included HMS’ tornado shelter.
“People ask, ‘You put these new buildings in. How can you be short? How can you not have room?’ ” Albers said. “One of the reasons is our need for special education.”
Special education is taking up three rooms at HMS now, when at one time it took up just one. More paras and aides are required, the number of students in the program has increased and newer teaching methods require more space. One of the rooms that is being used as a special-ed classroom used to be the teachers’ lounge.
Albers is in his second year in his position at the middle school. He said several times during the tour he knew there were space issues at HMS, but until he actually saw it, he didn’t really understand how much HMS was doing in its existing spaces.
One of these areas is the cafeteria, which was not designed to handle as many students as it does today.
The cafeteria gets very noisy because of the number of students crammed into such a small space. HMS serves lunch from 11 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Students have 20-minute lunch periods, but really don’t have that long to eat once they get through the line, are seated, and must clean up and line up.
“It’s definitely complicated. It is like ant farm — kids everywhere,” said Shauna Zweifel, HMS assistant principal.
HMS boiler room
Albers said, “It does work, but it doesn’t work well.”
HMS is also serving 150 to 200 students breakfast.
One plan school officials have considered is expanding the lunchroom into an old boiler room adjacent to the existing cafeteria. It is currently being used for storage.
Although the gym is nice and is in good repair, it also has to hold a lot of kids.
With two physical education classes and a weights class going on in the upper deck simultaneously, there can be 110 students in the gym per class period.
Albers described three different teachers using intercoms and bullhorns to direct students all at they same time.
“You had this going on. You had this going on. You had that going on. I was like this is crazy. It was crazy that we would put this many kids in the gym at one time, but it is the only option we have,” Albers said.
HMS Principal Tom Albers points out an uneven point in the HMS track that can be a tripping hazard.
The HMS track is in disrepair. Albers pointed out a large crack in the asphalt that has been repaired with a tar patch and is a tripping hazard. HMS can’t host meets at the school because of the condition of the track. HMS had 177 kids out last year for track.
The school has changed its drop-off procedures with the installation of a new secure entrance at the front of the school. During school hours, visitors buzz into the school and enter through the office. Students are required to enter in the morning through the west doors and check in through the gym.
Albers said the west door drop-off gives the school better control of the students’ movement through in the morning.
The school is working on plans to improve traffic control in the parking lot during drop off. Within the next month, the school plans to convert the parking lot to one-way traffic. Facilities also plans to paint a white area in the parking lot that will be a designated student drop-off zone.
August storm damage on the west side of HMS.
HMS is still working with insurance to complete repairs to the west side of the school that was damaged during a wind and hail storm in August.
Dr. William A. Huseman, age 67, passed away on Monday, September 9, 2019, at his home in El Dorado Springs, Missouri.
