Columns can entertain, inform or provoke thought.
Thoughtful responses to columns often open new visions and give a different perspective. Dale Voskuil of Chilton had some interesting observations about a column on the value of continuing and growing the Conservation Reserve and Wetland Reserve programs. He entered his land in a federal program four years ago. The rewards of enjoying these lands comes at a price and require thought, dedication and work, according to Voskuil. In other words, cashing a check from Uncle Sam does not do it.
