QUINNESEC The Breitung Township Board and Dickinson County Board on Monday contributed $3,000 each to the Lake Antoine Association for herbicide used to combat the spread of Eurasian watermilfoil in Lake Antoine.
The amount is twice what the township contributed in 2020, as the cost of the herbicide has increased, Breitung Township Superintendent Steve Mulka said.
“Like everything else this last year, there are shortages,” Mulka said, a reference to how the pandemic has affected supply.
Eurasian watermilfoil is an aquatic invasive plant. The LAA will use the money to treat 5.15 acres of milfoil beds in Lake Antoine with two herbicides to compare effectiveness, according to a memorandum from LAA Secretary-Treasurer Jeff Jayne.
LINDON It may sound a little oversimplified to say you ve modeled a business on the mission statement that unhappy people aren t likely to do an effective job making other people happy.
But Lindon-based human resources software innovator BambooHR has over the past decade-plus more than proven out the idea with a cloud-based platform that makes the administrative and compliance duties of human resource officers a snap while giving those professionals more time to build positive work cultures for their companies.
Veteran Utah tech leader and BambooHR CEO Brad Rencher said it s a common failure among executives to look past their own internal work environments on the quest to provide the best customer experience they can muster. Those customer outcomes, Rencher said, are first formed by the attitudes and, well, happiness of the employees who are the conduit through which any business s goods or services flow.
Goats ready to gobble up nearly anything that grows

MASON CITY, Iowa (AP) – At least once in the past several years, Klemme resident Ben Petersen has had to monitor a goat stuck in a tree as a part of his job. It comes with the territory now.
Since 2018, Petersen has worked as a North Central Iowa affiliate for the Ames-based Goats on the Go to clean up park areas, abandoned properties and even yards with a herd of about 40 goats and without the assistance of mowers, chainsaws and chemical sprays. In our opinion, they re not always going to replace those things but it s another tool in the toolbox. They re a lot safer to use around water and lakeshore because there are no chemicals to worry about and (you get) free fertilizer of course, Petersen told the Mason City Globe Gazette.
