Wheatland-Chili’s Upcoming Musical,  
Shrek the Musical 
Wheatland-Chili is putting on the musical, Shrek the Musical!  
Shrek the Musical is by Jeanine Tesori with books and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire. It’s based on Dreamworks Animation’s film, Shrek, produced in 2001 and William Steig’s book, Shrek, written in 1990. Our very own Mr. Ford will be directing the musical along with Mr. Roach. Mr. Zimmerman will lead the pit band. Mr. Ford has a history with Wheatland-Chili as the director of last year’s musical, In the Heights, by Lin-Manuel Miranda, which was a big hit. This year there are so many new roles to fill in this fun and exciting play, such as Donkey, Shrek, Fiona and many more! The first meeting to kick off the musical is November 6th after school in the chorus room. The purpose of this meeting is to provide general information.  
Looking forward, in thinking and speaking about the musical’s potential, Mr. Roach shares that he “is super excited about the play and the fresh new talented people.” He also says he is “excited to see what everyone is ready to do!”

Crop analysis- Alfalfa Hay

  Crop analysis- Alfalfa Hay By: Connor Ingham                 Alfalfa hay is a leguminous plant that is grown mainly for silage, animal feed, or for a nitrogen supplying cover crop. Alfalfa, unlike most other plants, can grow for up to five production years after the first cutting of hay is complete. Commonly, alfalfa is mixed with other types of grasses, such as timothy hay, or oats that provide wind protection and frost protection during the winter, due to alfalfa’s low height. To begin the planting process, alfalfa can be planted with just a dusting of soil, typically in well drained areas for best quality, during any summertime month. The plant will surface normally within 15 days where it will grow into stems with generally a distinctive tri leaf design. This trend will continue as the plant gains a bush like shape into the mature age (around a height of 12 inches). Once the plant is mature, purple...

Crop Analysis- Timothy Hay

  Crop Analysis- Timothy Hay By Connor Ingham             Timothy hay is a cool weather grass that prefers damp soil, mainly in northern climates with an optimal temperature range around 75 degrees. This hay variety is grown for an ideal pasture crop, animal feed, or a grass cover crop. Timothy similar to other hay species, since timothy is a perennial plant (growing for many year), although it does lessen in production over its lifespan. The best time to establish a timothy crop is during the summer months, roughly before mid-August, which allows the plant to grow to an ideal height before winter freezing sets in. A firm seed bed, free of any visible stones, an application of 8-10 pounds per acre and a seed depth of ½ of an inch will provide the best start to the plant’s life. Timothy can be planted along with other grass/hay varieties, such as clover, alfalfa, birds-foot trefoil, or Kentucky blue grass which will blend in...
