The first time my mothercame to visit me in SouthDakota, she was not a fan."There is just so muchspace!" she said, with atremor in her voice. A citygirl through and through,she also worried about beingso far away from "every-thing." And I know shemissed the conveniences ofhome. For example, one visita few summers ago, we camerolling up to the ranch aftera day spent at a rodeo in aneighboring town. It was lateevening, and we were hot, hungry,and tired. I was lamenting the factthat I hadn't planned ahead forsupper, and my mom said breezily,"Well, let's just pick somethingup."

"From where? It's Sunday night,everything is closed." I replied.

"Everything can't be closed," shesaid calmly.

"Actually, yes it can…" I said,and drove down Main Street toprove it.

Over the years, however, shehas adjusted to our lifestyle here,and now genuinely enjoys her vis-its, especially in the early summerwhen the evenings are long andcool, and the grass still lush andgreen. Coincidently, early summeris when the Bean celebrates hisbirthday -- he had his first one lastweek. So, my mom came out,bringing a dear family friendalong for the big day. They arrivedjust as our heatwave was break-ing, in time for a perfect Junedusk. A little road weary and stifffrom the drive, our visitors firstorder of business was a leisurelywalk around the pasture, anddown the long gravel road thatruns beside the ranch. It was slowgoing though, as every few feet,out came the iPhone to capturethe majesty of the light as it hitthe fields, the dogs, the cotton-woods, and the little lambs bounc-ing through the grass. In the daysthat followed I noticed that whileI still carry with me plenty ofquirky "city-ways," I've definitelymade some adjustments in my ex-pectations. Adjustments that ourvisitors had not.

Exhibit A: GERMS. If you'veever attended a branding, or anysimilar event, you've seen peoplegetting dirty. Whether it's blood,manure, or good old-fashion mud,nobody working at a brandingcomes away with clean hands.And it needs to get done in one --generally long -- day, so a fewsnacks midway through are re-quired. Once you've seen peopleeating sandwiches and bars out inthe pasture with all manner ofbranding remnants on their fin-gers, it's almost impossible not toadjust your mindset in regard togerms. I mean, as far as I know, noone has ever died of eating a sand-wich at a branding, and while Idon't advise completely abandon-

ing hand washing before meal-time, it can't be as important asmy nursery school teacher led meto believe. My mom, on the otherhand, is still deathly afraid ofgerms, and asks constantly:"Aren't you going to wash that?"

Exhibit B: TICKS. I was in col-lege the first time I ever found atick trying to burrow its way intomy flesh. I'd been hiking througha wooded area on campus, and asI was getting ready for bed thatnight, found I was carrying a pas-senger on the back of my knee. Iwas so freaked out I barely madeit to my roommate, one door down,squealing the whole way. I mostlywas screaming, "GET IT OUT!!"over and over, and it took her afew minutes to even figure outwhat was wrong.

A few years later I had my nexttick experience while campingwith my sister in the BoundaryWaters. This time I didn't have ameltdown, but I was still prettytrembly and grossed out. Mean-while, my sister, who had been liv-ing in the woods all summer, re-moved the pest with calm compo-sure. "Yeah, we get a lot of these,"she said. "You get used to it."

"No." I thought to myself, "Icould never get used to this."

After two very tick-heavy yearshere on the ranch, I am officiallyused to it. Don't get me wrong,finding one of those stinkerscreeping along my hairline, or hid-ing in a pant leg, will set me itch-ing, sure that there are morecrawling around waiting to bite;but now, after a few minutes, I for-get all about it. And I certainlydon't need help disposing of themanymore. It's just an unpleasant,but commonplace, part of countryliving.

My mother and her friend, onthe other hand, are still me in theBoundary Waters. After a walk inthe pasture, the household went toDEF CON 3 when a few ticks werefound hitching a ride into thehouse. I calmly removed the un-welcome bugs, and like my sisterso many years ago, said, "You getused to it."

"Nope," my mom's worriedglance said to me, "I will NOT getused to this."

Exhibit C: CRAZY DIETSTUFF. At different points in mylife I have been a vegetarian, avegan, a close follower of macrobi-

otics, and a proponent ofavoiding foods that containwhite sugar or processedflour. Some of these dietsseemed to make a differencein my overall health, butmainly they were just a lot ofwork to maintain. Not tomention being an annoyanceto anyone who wanted to pre-pare food for me. Here on theranch, we mostly eat meatwe raise ourselves, and thesame goes for a lot of our veg-etables, especially in the

summer. But there are plenty oftimes when we just eat what wecan get. The food store in town issmall, and therefore the optionsare relatively limited. This is alsotrue for our restaurant options. Inthe mood for egg rolls and lo mein?How about a black bean burritowith fresh guacamole? In mostcities, at least when it comes tocuisine, you can travel the globewithout leaving the city limits; inour small town, not so much. It'sone of the things I miss mostabout city life, until I actually visita city. A few years ago, while at-tending a dear friend's wedding inNew York, I was shocked to dis-cover that every person in thewedding party had some kind ofdieting restriction that preventedthem from eating a major foodgroup. Planning a meal wasnearly impossible. Since I recog-nized myself in some of theirchoices, but no longer am as strictabout what I eat (or won't eat) Icouldn't help but wonder, if cir-cumstance doesn't limit your foodoptions, perhaps some quirk ofhuman nature makes you do it toyourself.

Fast forward to my mom andher friend, who don't eat glutenand don't eat meat, respectively.Meanwhile, the man of the ranchwouldn't know we were eating ameal if it didn't include meat, soevery meal was basically three dif-ferent meals. By the time ourguests left I was exhausted fromtrying to run a restaurant that ac-commodated all their needs.Which is not to say I was happy tosee them go, but, wow, those cityfolks are high maintenance!

Now, lest you think I have com-pletely abandoned my roots, Ishould admit that though I willnow eat most things with relish,that doesn't mean I will feed themto my baby. The Bean's birthdaycake was made with whole wheat,and sweetened only with honey.So little honey in fact, that it basi-cally tasted like very dense breadwith a slathering of whip cream(which was also barely sweet-ened.) No one but me, and my po-lite guests, would have called itcake. The moral of the story? Iguess you can take the girl out ofthe city, but you can't entirely takethe city out of the girl.

Wheat walks include Wall areaSouth Dakota State University

Extension staff and wheat grow-ers met in wheat fields near Wall,Watertown, Clark, Aberdeen andPierre for the annual SDSU Ex-tension wheat walks.

"A well-timed rain event en-hanced our participation. Theseevents provided growers with anopportunity to visit with SDSUExtension staff and get their ques-tions answered about pest anddisease management in their ownfields," said Connie Strunk, SDSUExtension plant pathology fieldspecialist.

The wheat walks were fundedby the South Dakota Wheat Com-mission. Refreshments at each lo-cation were provided by S.D.Wheat Inc. Certified crop advisorcredits were available for thosewho needed them.

Strunk and other SDSU Exten-sion staff provided a wheat walksummary.

Disease management: Em-manuel Byamukama, assistantprofessor and Extension plantpathologist, and Strunk led theplant pathology discussion. It fo-cused on identifying wheat dis-eases and their life cycles, how tomanage diseases using culturalmeans, and using integrated pestmanagement to determine when afungicide intervention is war-ranted.

"Different tools growers andconsultants can utilize to help aidin their decision making to deter-mine whether or not a fungicideapplication is needed were dis-cussed," Byamukama said.

Diseases observed, dependingon location, included stripe rust,wheat streak mosaic, barley yel-low dwarf, and tan spot.

"Stripe rust was found at very

high levels in Pierre and canquickly become yield limiting, es-pecially if it is found in high levelson the flag leaf which can result ina 50 percent yield reduction,"Strunk said.

To predict probability of fusar-ium head blight (FHB), tan spot,leaf rust, and other leaf spot dis-eases, the SDSU climate andweather center hosts the smallgrains disease model at the linkhttp://climate.sdstate.edu/small-grains.

Entomology: Adam Varenhorst,assistant professor and Extensionfield crop entomologist, stressedthe importance of scouting for in-sects and using establishedthresholds when making insecti-cide application decisions.

"By following integrated pestmanagement (IPM) strategies,growers can help maintain insectpredator populations, which canmake insecticide applications un-necessary, saves input costs andhelps growers avoid putting pesti-cides into the environment whenthey are not needed," Varenhorstsaid. His discussion also focusedon the bird cherry oat aphid thatwas observed in many of the loca-tions. Aphids, green bugs and la-dybugs were observed in some ofthe visited wheat fields.

Evaluating wheat stands andassessing yields: David Karki andRuth Beck, SDSU Extensionagronomy field specialists, andChris Graham, SDSU Extensionagronomist, discussed how toproperly determine the wheatgrowth stage and how to evaluatewheat stands and assess yield.They also covered the cold temper-atures, frost damage and varietyselection.

The majority of the winterwheat in the area was at or nearheading and flowering. The springwheat was at late tillering to earlyjointing stages.

Soil fertility: the soil fertility

discussion, led by Anthony Bly,SDSU Extension soils field spe-cialist, focused on nitrogen withan emphasis on timing and theuse of nitrogen for grain proteinenhancement.

Dwayne Beck, Dakota LakesResearch Farm manager, also leda discussion on nitrogen timingand explained what treatments hewas working with at DakotaLakes.

SDSU WEED project: Paul O.Johnson, Extension weed sciencecoordinator, and Gared Shaffer,Extension weeds field specialist,identified weeds found at each lo-cation. They also shared that theWEED project will continue toevaluate herbicides used in newways and will continue to focustheir research on herbicide resist-ant weeds.

Climate: Laura Edwards, cli-mate field specialist, discussed theweather outlook and also encour-aged those who attended to be-come Community CollaborativeRain, Hail and Snow Network(CoCoRaHS) observers.

Plans are underway to continuethe wheat walks in the spring of2017. The walks provide an oppor-tunity for hands-on, face-to-faceinformation sharing amongstSDSU Extension, wheat growersand agronomists.

National Grasslands celebration this weekNational Grasslands Week will

be celebrated June 19-25 acrossthe nation to spotlight the beautyand historical importance of the20 national grasslands in 12 west-ern states, covering four millionacres and managed by the UnitedStates Department of AgricultureForest Service.

Historically, the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act of 1937authorized the federal govern-ment to acquire lands ravaged bythe Dust Bowl. Today, a good por-tion of this land forms our na-tional grasslands. The nationalgrasslands are a proven exampleof successful restoration programsthat feature rich habitats, abun-dant wildlife, grasses and wild-flowers. The unique grasslandscontribute millions to local ruraleconomies, and offer tremendousrecreation and education opportu-nities for more than a million vis-itors each year.

To commemorate the celebra-tion, the National Grassland Visi-tor Center in Wall is offering freeevening programs that highlightsome of the features of the grass-lands. The programs are at 3:00p.m., 5:00 p.m., and 7:00 p.m.every day of the week. Patio talkswill be given at 10:00 a.m. and2:00 p.m. on the living landscapeand wildlife. In addition to the 25minute national grasslands film,two other films will be shown atthe visitor center: “Surviving theDust Bowl” and “Facing theStorm: Story of the AmericanBison.” Everyone is invited tocome and celebrate the creation ofthe national grasslands.

“The story of the national grass-lands is one of outstanding conser-vation. The grasslands wereformed from dust and hardship,but now hold treasures of stun-ning natural landscapes, richwildlife, recreation, sporting op-portunities, and productive landfor livestock” said Luke Hittner,assistant center director.

Park Ranger Kathleen Hansonadded, “Many folks are not even

offer a variety of forest and grass-land maps and interpretive saleitems along with ‘America theBeautiful’ - National Parks andFederal Recreational Landspasses. Including, the annualpass, senior pass (age 62 or older),access pass (permanent disabil-ity), fourth grade pass (student)and active duty military pass.Contact your local Forest Serviceoffice for more information onthese offerings.

News will be short this week, asI’m hot, tired, and it has just beena long week. Actually, I forgotabout the news until a short whileago when Kent Wilsey sent me hisnews. He wrote a letter to the edi-tor and it is actually going to getpublished (I believe that’s a rar-ity)! The Rapid City Journal didnot tell him when it will go in, butkeep your eyes open to hear whatKent has to say! Now I’m all curi-ous, I might have to start lookingthrough the papers. The biggest news I have thisweek is word from the SouthDakota High School Rodeo Finalsin Belle Fourche. Area competitorswere Carter Elshere and SavanaJohnston, whom I believe bothmade it to Nationals. Cash Wilsonand Emilee Pauley from Wall (with

ties to Elm Springs) also made it toNationals. Emilee was named theAll-Around Cowgirl for the yearand her horse Foxy was voted asHorse of the Year! What an accom-plishment for all of our youngrodeo athletes, but especially thosefrom Elm Springs! Way to make usproud! Lonnie and Teri Arneson hadvisitors on Father’s Day. StuartFoss, Aaron Foss, and friends, aswell as Kylie, Brielle, and Avery allcame out to fish! Lynn and Sandy Fields made atrip to Rapid City on Monday andWednesday for Lynn’s annual doc-tor appointment. Another trip toRapid City on Thursday forswather parts. After two attempts,Sandy got kitties for her barn fromJean Linn. The first attempt on

The obituary for Elizabeth(Beth) Wilson Laschinger was inlast week’s Courant. We offer ourcondolences to her family andfriends. Also in the “obituary column”were the names of Marjorie Berg,

who had lived in Wall at one timeand Boyd Stephenson who was aPhilip High School graduate. Oursympathy goes out to those fami-lies, as well. People always have to eat butmaybe the heat suppresses our ap-petites. Only twelve people at-tended the Senior Citizen’s Potlucksupper on Thursday evening. Thenext day when the “Theme Meal”was held, only twenty-two cameout for the meal. No one wentaway hungry! About eight miles north ofQuinn, the north side of Kelly HillRoad has been eroding. A groupfrom the county was out therelooking over the situation lastweek. When they do start the proj-ect it may take quite awhile to fixit. A detour was not proposed andthe road will be closed for thattime — alternate road to the southby the Conrad Kjerstad place to beused. Gerald and Esther Wolforddrove to Howard, S.D., last Tues-day to spend some time with theirdaughter Amy and her husbandTerry. They returned to Wall onFriday.

On Father’s Day, Loy Hammmet her youngest daughter andhusband (Jo and Bart Otto) atHart Ranch. Loy Hamm has filled in as ahelper at the Monty and BobbiWilliams home. She helped lastThursday and was there againtoday, Monday. Ridlee, Pine andLincoln (the Williams’ triplets) do

not know how fortunate they are tohave so much care! Seems Bobbihas a full-time helper but shecouldn’t be there for a few days. Alot of people fill in. Cody O’Bryan, a grandson ofLorna Moore, and his motherJanet were here from Texas. They

the longest day of the year. So thatmeans more sun and it has beenreally hot some days. I can think ofone thing it helps — it doesn’t takelong to make “sun” tea. Hope all fathers enjoyed “their”day last Sunday. Have a good week!

Ten years ago, Wasta waspreparing for their Centennial Cel-ebration, July 4th “Doings”. Wehad something each month but de-cided to make the “4th” the bigevent and it was! Most everyone intown contributed in some way andalthough it was a massive under-taking it was accomplished. Welldone! Wasta’s Week in Review? KerryHerringer’s home, across from thepark to the west was auctioned onWednesday and pending close ofescrow, Wasta will have a newneighbor, to be welcomed to town. Don and Betty Anderson’s prop-erty belonging to their son, Randy,now deceased, was auctioned Sat-urday with Larry Fuss being thebuyer. A family has moved into Evanand Jamie Anderson’s house on “B”St. but we’ve not met them as yet,but hear they have youngsters sothat will be good! Hopefully we willhave details next week! Faye Bryan’s niece Shirley Nor-ton did arrive, but not as reportedlast week. She arrived on Satur-day and will stay for awhile. Fayehad a “procedure” at R.C. Regionalscheduled for Monday morning(the 20th) but should be back inPhilip fairly soon. Skillingstad’s grand-girls, Har-mony and Honor who had a cus-tom made wagon to ride in the pa-rade last year, have requestedgrandpa Ken do something with“birds and butterflies” as thetheme this year! Ah, what fun! Danene Skillingstad is little bylittle getting back on her feet (nopun intended) and will be grateful

when she is able to get out andabout again. Terry and Billie Schell went toJackson, Wyo., last week forTerry’s daughter, Danielle’s wed-ding. Kyle and Carrie Schell alsoattended this family affair. Mary Lewis had another booksigning this weekend — hopefullyit wasn’t so hot, but Mary is nocomplainer so she probably en-joyed it very much! Great-grandson, Skyler Patter-son was invited to MavrickWilliams’ house for s’mores so wetagged along. Skyler enjoysMavrick and likewise for Mavrick,and Lloyd and I enjoyed the coolSaturday evening with Ray andJamy, Zach and Val Grenstinerand Ken Skillingstad while theboys played. Skyler is ten andMavrick not quite four but theymanaged to find a lot in common! How many days until the WastaJuly 4th Celebration? I don’t know,but I do know the corner it isaround is very, very close! I need toquit being surprised at the speedof passing days, weeks and monthsand just accept and enjoy! So, July 4th, Wasta: 11:00 a.m.parade line-up; 11:30 a.m. paradestarts; 12:30 p.m. or soon after theparade, lunch served in the park,free will donation; 1:30 p.m. orsoon after lunch, games in thepark. Any and all are invited toparticipate in the parade but it isalso fun to have spectators. The first parade, this is the20th, we weren’t certain we wouldhave any spectators and werethinking of having half the en-trants begin the parade and half

the family and friends be specta-tors and then swap with eachgroup having two streets forparading! Fortunately, Faye Bryan andGeorge Bryan’s niece, Jonny WinnHolsether was editor of theCourant and gave us a great writeup in the human interest or somesuch section, that people actuallycame — some even participated inthe parade! Jonny herself was inthe parade as, you know, the spe-cial dignitary, in a car covered, to-tally covered in newspapers andshe wore a Dr. Suess tall, tall hat!Faye and George Bryan werehorseback and carried the flags,Lloyd and I brought up the rearpulling a wagon and cleaning uphorse manure! Then we got mar-ried in the back yard of the hotel. Well, I didn’t mean to get off onthat. Our Elm Springs friends, MaryKay and Philip Wilson are in ourthoughts and prayers as we extendour sincere condolences to them.We haven’t adequate words to ex-press to bring comfort, but pleaseknow you are in our thoughts. Hazel Kalkbrenner is a giftedgardner and a kind neighbor whohas shared tasty garden treatswith us. Thank you! The temperature today, Monday,June 20, is in the warm comfort-able zone (in my opinion only) ofcourse, but Mr. Weather Guy issaying add 10° or so for tomorrow’stemp so guess after the departingearly morning cool, inside taskswill be in order. Or a nap. Happy Trails!

Free livestock water testingSouth Dakota State University

Extension offers an on-site live-stock water testing service at allSDSU Extension regional exten-sion centers and several SDSUExtension county offices through-out the state.

"It is critical to monitor live-stock water quality, because poorquality water can have a negativeeffect on growth, reproduction,and general productivity of the an-imal. In some cases, death couldoccur within days or hours afterconsumption of contaminated wa-ters or water deprivation," saidRobin Salverson, SDSU Extensioncow/calf field specialist.

Water samples can be taken ina clean plastic or glass containerincluding water or pop bottles,jelly jars etc. A quick test is con-ducted free of charge with an elec-tro-conductivity (EC) meter to de-termine total salts in the water.After consultation with an SDSUExtension field or state special-ists, additional laboratory testingmay be suggested, said Salverson.

"The appearance of water can bedeceiving and the clearest ofwater can be the worse," she said."Additionally, some water sourcesregardless if it has been dry or wetcan be high in total salts. There-fore, continuous monitoring ofwater quality and quantity areimportant to maintain a produc-tive livestock program."

Livestock water testing can beperformed at sites that include re-gional Extension centers at Pierre

at 773-8120, and at Rapid City at394-1722.

SDSU Extension county officesinclude Haakon County at 859-2840 and Jones County at 669-7101.
