3:13folks. I tell you what, Kelly, every time I turn around there's something else happening and just it's fun to talk about. First off, tell me about this hero's parade. So you know how patriotic and proud of our community we are here in Ripley, in Jackson County. Every year in the anniversary of 9-11 we have a hero's celebration. This year the hero's parade is on Saturday, September the 12th. The parade starts at 6 with a cookout in barbecue and celebration of our first responders to follow. The parade will start at such Miller, Carla in Ripley and it will end at the Starcher Mansion which is where the cookout is and we are going to be celebrating our first responders, our police, our EMS, our firefighters which in Jackson County are all well in here. So we want to make sure that those people know how much we appreciate their contribution to the community and all the good things they do and how much they

4:15take care of us. And so for the first day we're going to take care of them. You know it's a thankless job that they do and they do appreciate when a city like Ripley steps up and just you know sends them a thank you card with this type of event. And they really do. Our local guys take really good care of us. They're active with our youth in the school and the youth sports. They take care of our elderly in the community. They do all kinds of things that we don't really realize. You know people think police officer and they think you're writing a ticket or whatever but our guys are fixing your tire on the side of the road making sure your kids get home from school safe and our first responders in this county as everywhere are just they have big hearts and big skills and we really want to show them we appreciate them. Hey tell me about this. Yeah, when is it again? September the 12th at six o'clock. Tell me about the cruise in. That is September the 18th and it is at there's a cruise

6:22festival that's coming up but Ripley is going to be part of it and and I guess the moth man movie has now been moved outside. I think we're going to have men and black we're going to because of the repairs and things on going at the Alpine we maybe look at it having that outside on the courthouse lawn or some plate similar but we do have a movie in celebration and we want to invite everybody to come out and take off the moth man weekend early we're going to support our neighbors in point pleasant but also enjoy some quality Ripley time as well so you can come watch the car show and then stick around for the movie.

16:49one score what did you see out of that side of the ball it was it's like night and day they um I think we held them to a hundred total yards and actually the score was on a punt return so our defense actually you know it's considered a touchdown but it was an our defense on the field so I was really proud of the defense they are really getting locked in and and we're playing next football again back to normal does that give you a sense of pride when your team responds to adversity and steps it up from week to week it really it really does because we could have easily you know folded a little bit or start having some self-doubt but like I said before and all the interviews I've ever done is that commitment these kids have made to the program in the offseason shows how much they truly care and there's no quitting these guys they believe themselves they know that they're good football team and we bounce back into right what and who uh who got the game balls some of the individual recognition for the marauders the other night well I'll tell you offensively it's hard to argue gutter Cleveland and Griffin Hudson not grew gunner went 19 to 25 for three hundred and forty plus yards of five touchdowns and Griffin had 10 receptions 185

17:54and four touchdowns and then we also had Owen Tracy in that group that had eight or nine receptions for like a hundred and thirty yards and a touchdown too so that was a really good performance offensively defensively I think we got our defensive player the games to our uh safety in our corner that got the picks I thought they came into crucial time and based on last week's play and and uh we'll play we'll put that on the coaching staff and myself as responsible for that that you know we should have been in that kind of look last week instead of maybe playing the man coverage that we tried against Sims Valley and hindsight you can't go back and change it but hindsight I wish you to stuck to that instead who are the main communicators on your defense from the people on the field to the sideline what's what's got of the chain of command there well I've went back to calling the defense so we got coach Yates's back calling our offense which is a great thing and then I so I communicated out there to our Mike who makes the strength call and then we have our Sam Mike and Will and our safety communicating beverages and blitz packages so there's multiple communication things going on and uh that's one thing great about this group of

33:48bit of fun on the rick mergers show here on the voice of the mid ohio valley wmov you can also listen in the wmov on the go app available at the app store this is the rick mergers show well a lot of producers are looking at their fields right now to do some work on them and joining us this week is john david johnson agriculture specialist with west virginia state university john david um i think one of the things they need to be thinking about right now is lineman your fields tell me more that's right uh you know fall was a great time to to start looking at getting some lime on those fields starting to correct that uh blower pH if you if you definitely have a low pH you know this part of the country we do struggle a bit more with keeping that pH up just because you know we do not have a limestone base under our souls like you know a lot of different areas and Kentucky and even down in the green brine and row area they have more

34:50lime cell based and we do right here in the ohio valley so you know generally our souls will drop a little quicker in in pH levels so we definitely need to keep an eye on that and if you're not sure what your pH level is you know i would definitely encourage you to take a soul sample uh wve offers a free soul sample just google wve use soul sample form in a pop right up print it off get a couple of soul from different you know uniformed area just a uniformed area probably if you're pat you're looking at a pasture you're looking two to three inches deep little plugs that you pull all over the uniformed area to get an average makes it up a couple of that soul and is up a bag and then the form send it in but that's also going to tell you a few other things we're not going to talk about today but pH is one of those things and it's very critical because pH affects everything all right you know uh the pH is off everything's going to be off

35:52it's actually you know of a low pH or even a very high pH uh it can actually start to bind up the nutrients in the soils that will you know affect the uptake of those nutrients by the plant so you know it it it will really affect the uptake of those nutrients so you could have great phosphorus and potassium levels but your plants will be off if if that pH is low so i like to apply here and or you know start to apply for fall because sometimes it takes six months after spreading egg lime for that actually to get that pH change where you want it to be because especially with different rates of lime every lime is you know a load of lime that you know you get or valley or roll waste all wherever you're you're looking there um you know yet it has a different quality to it okay uh so there's a couple little things and the

36:57old lime should have a tag that comes with the load that tells you certain things uh cce values uh carbon calcium equivalency is this is what cce means and that needs is a percentage and that needs to be above an 85 percent okay uh that's uh the sign of a good quality life and there's also screen size is you know you have your hundred count screens either i think is eighty-six and forty i do believe um and the you know the higher the number the smaller the screen size uh so that means the more that passes through that hundred count screen size it's fine okay so you want to if you look at the screen size and you see a large amount of it going through that you know sixty eighty percent of it going through that hundred count uh screen size that's for decent life i mean that's actually going to get down there and start to change pH a lot quicker

37:59than when it gets through that uh you know sixty and forty you know all of it should hopefully pass through a forty count because it's not you got gravel so a lime stone instead of a ag lime now you know that you know those big quilts that are hard that's going to sit there for a long time you know it's going to take years for them to break down but the finer the lime the more surface area the more quicker it's going to actually get down in that soil and uh take effect change at pH and increase at pH for you uh and you want to shoot for a 6.2 to a 6.7 pH is usually what we're looking for economically in these pastures and gardens and it goes the same way with gardens too so getting that pH is very critical and applying it right now in the end of fall will get you where you need to go you know come planning season of of next spring or or you know when we start to turn
