Wisconsin had 6.2 days suitable for fieldwork statewide for the week ending May 10, according to the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service.

A week with little rainfall allowed the pace of field work to accelerate. Cold nights, however, have slowed corn emergence and left some growers concerned for frost damage to fruits and berries.

• Richard J. Schreiber, 56, Green Bay, pleaded no contest to two counts of felony child neglect and one count of misdemeanor child neglect. Judge William Kussel Jr. withheld sentencing and placed him on three years of probation with conditions.

• Tessa R. Shepard, 38, pleaded no contest May 14 to misappropriating ID information to avoid penalty, possession of narcotic drugs and a misdemeanor count of operating while revoked. Judge Kent Hoffman imposed and stayed a jail sentence, then placed her on two years of probation with conditions.
