Labor Day was estab-lished in 1882, and it has becomean American tradition to celebratewith family and friends. For many Americans who re-ceive Social Security or Supple-mental Security Income (SSI) dis-ability benefits, Labor Day can bea good day to think about the fu-ture. It may be that, in spite ofyour disabling condition, youwould like to attempt to work. Butperhaps you’re apprehensive be-cause you don’t want to find outyou’re not quite up to the task andrisk losing your benefits and crit-ical medical coverage. We have good news for you: ourwork incentives can help you go towork without the worry. Work incentives include: •Continued cash benefits for aperiod of time while you work; •Continued Medicare or Medi-caid while you work; and •Help with education, training,and rehabilitation to start a newline of work. For example, a trial work pe-riod allows you to test your abilityto work for at least nine monthswithout affecting your benefits.Beyond that, an extended periodof eligibility allows you to workanother 36 months and still re-ceive benefits, depending on your

Governor Dennis Daugaard hasissued an Executive Order that,upon receipt of a permit, grantspermission to move overwidthbaled livestock feed not exceeding12-feet-wide or 15-feet-high inSouth Dakota two hours after sun-set and two hours before sunrise.

Overwidth vehicles must beequipped with flashing or rotatingwhite or amber warning lightsplaced at each side of the load’swidest extremity. The warninglights must be clearly visible tomotorists approaching from thefront and rear. Movement underthe executive order is valid only forbaled livestock feed.

The Governor’s Executive Orderallows overwidth moving of baledlivestock feed until cessation of thedrought emergency or no laterthan October 20, 2012.

“This summer’s persistentdrought conditions have left live-stock producers across SouthDakota with inadequate feed sup-plies,” said Walt Bones, SouthDakota Secretary of Agriculture.“Increasing hauling height and

width restrictions for baled haywill allow producers to move feedin a more efficient manner.”

The normal restriction on SouthDakota highway loads is 14-feet,three-inches high and eight-feet,six-inches wide.

Although height and width re-strictions for baled livestock feedhave been temporarily increasedby Executive Order, several high-ways in the state have width andheight restrictions in place be-cause of construction or perma-nent structures. Truckers are en-couraged to check their routesahead of time for those restric-tions.

Agriculture is South Dakota'sNo. 1 industry, generating nearly$21 billion in annual economic ac-tivity and employing more than80,000 South Dakotans. The SouthDakota Department of Agricul-ture's mission is to promote, pro-tect, preserve and improve this in-dustry for today and tomorrow.

By Governor Dennis Daugaard

About a month ago, legislativeleadership, the Chief Justice and Iannounced the formation of theCriminal Justice Initiative. Thisinitiative has three goals: makethe public safer, hold criminals ac-countable for their actions, and usepublic funds efficiently.

Since the initial announcement,a work group comprised of law en-forcement, prosecutors, legislators,defense attorneys, judges, treat-ment providers, and members ofmy staff have met several times tolook at ways to achieve those goals.

I have no policy change propos-als which are driving this effort.Neither does the Chief Justice orthe members of the work group.Policy proposals, if any, shouldcome at the end – after the factshave been examined, and evi-dence-based practices have beenstudied.

Thus far, work group meetingshave been a good examination ofSouth Dakota’s criminal justicesystem, from probation to prison toparole. The group is consideringwhat other states do, and how theyspend their corrections’ dollars. Weshould not be afraid to look criti-cally at ourselves. If we find some-thing we cannot defend, then per-haps it is indefensible and needs tobe changed.

In short, we don’t know whatpolicies will come from this initia-tive, as it is still in the fact-gather-ing and policy-considering stages.

There are a few issues and ideasthat this work group is not consid-ering. The work group is not dis-cussing letting current offendersout of prison. The work group isnot considering changes to thedeath penalty, the juvenile justicesystem, or the sex-offender reg-

Smart on crimeistry. The work group is not con-sidering deeper societal questionsthat could be a root cause of crime,such as poverty or education.These are important issues, butthey are so complex in their ownright that they could overwhelmthe discussion. The group is in-stead focusing on increased publicsafety, more offender accountabil-ity, and efficient use of taxpayerdollars.

South Dakota incarcerates morepeople per capita than our neigh-boring states – nearly twice therate of North Dakota and Min-nesota. South Dakota’s prisonsare filling, and locking more peopleup has a significant cost. Projec-tions show that – if we changenothing – our prison populationwill increase 25 percent over thenext 10 years, at an additional$224 million cost. At our currentrate, we will need to build a newwomen’s prison in just a few yearsand another men’s prison not longafterwards. The dollars we woulduse are funds that we could notspend on other priorities, such aseducation, economic development,or infrastructure.

This does not mean that ourprisons are full and we should stoplocking people up. We should andwill continue to lock up dangerous,violent career criminals.

We should never be afraid ofself-examination. I look forward tothe recommendations of the workgroup, because I believe we willfind ways to improve. I believe wecan do a better job of keeping thepublic safe, while spending tax dol-lars more effectively. That willallow us to spend more on schools,roads and job creation, or providetax relief.

We are committed to makingSouth Dakota safer, holding crimi-nals more accountable, and provid-ing taxpayers with a better publicsafety return for their corrections’dollars.

The weather these days seemsto be more volatile than ever --swinging from record-setting heatwaves to deep freezes, seeminglyfrom one day to the next. With the weather more variedand unpredictable, homeownersnationwide have learned lessonsfrom the past year and are takingsteps to ensure their houses can ef-ficiently withstand whateverMother Nature dishes out. It’s all about keeping homessealed tightly, so water and windcan’t leak in and tempered airdoesn’t leak out -- causing heatingand cooling bills to rise.Beware of Foundation Cracks Water is the enemy of yourhome’s foundation. A change inmoisture content of the soil aroundyour home allows water to putpressure on the foundation, caus-ing cracks and leaks. Dry weather can cause the soilto shrink, while wet periods cancause it to soften. Poor drainagefrom your roof or improper groundslope around your home can funnelwater against the foundation. Make sure gutters are clean andthat downspouts extend awayfrom your home. Check that thesoil, grass or pavement properlyslopes away from your foundation.

Insulate Effectively Upgrading a home’s insulationis an effective, easy way to in-crease energy efficiency while de-creasing heating costs. The attic isa great start, but to achieve maxi-mum efficiencies, don’t overlookareas such as basements and rimjoists. The U.S. Department of Energyestimates homeowners could savean average of at least $250 yearlyin heating costs by insulatingbasement walls. And by insulatingcrawl spaces and rim joists, theU.S. Environmental ProtectionAgency estimates homeowners can

Prepare your home towithstand any weather

save up to 20 percent on energybills. Opting for stone wool insulation,which is made from a combinationof natural basalt rock and recycledslag, may provide greater benefitsthan traditional fiberglass insula-tion. One such thermal insulationis Roxul ComfortBatt, a fire resist-ant, water repellent and sound ab-sorbent insulation that is well-suited for use in exterior walls, at-tics, crawlspaces and basements.It also has a unique fiber composi-tion and density that provides foran optimal fit between studs,joists, around ductwork, electricalboxes and plumbing. As anotherconsideration for insulating, Roxulalso offers Safe ‘n’ Sound, anotherstone wool insulation product well-suited for soundproofing interiorwalls and ceilings between rooms.Its unique stone wool compositionreduces sound transmissions bytrapping sound waves and vibra-tions. Before undertaking a home in-sulation project, do-it-yourselferscan visit www.diywithroxul.com, toview free “how-to” videos detailingdifferent insulation projects.

Inspect Your Roof Nothing can ruin a home fasterthan a leaky roof. Once yearly,check for signs of damage, such assagging, aging, cracking, curling,tears or missing shingles. Pay par-ticular attention to areas obscuredby shade or vegetation. Replace shingles that are liftingup or that have rot or heavy moss.Also inspect gutters, vents, over-hangs and flashing. Repairsshould be made as soon as you seea small problem, before it becomesa larger one. Don’t attempt to climb a roofthat is steeply sloped. Instead,turn to a professional roofer orhome inspector.

Seven weeks after GovernorDennis Daugaard announced acomprehensive driver license im-provement plan, most wait timeshave been reduced significantly atSioux Falls exam stations.

The Governor ordered the planimplemented on July 11, afterlearning that some applicants fordriver licensing services werewaiting for 120 minutes or longerat the two Sioux Falls exam sta-tions. Since the changes were im-plemented, wait times at the twoexam stations have ranged from20 to 45 minutes on most days.

The improvement plan includedextended hours, paying overtimeas necessary, emphasizing hiringand training to fill vacant exam-iner positions and encouraging ap-plicants to seek temporary permitsand then go through the renewalprocess in the fall when stationstraditionally are less busy.

To continue improving conven-ience and efficiency for applicants,the Driver Licensing Program isannouncing that applicants may: •Go online (http://dps.sd.gov/li-censing/driver_licensing/default.aspx) to schedule appointments forrenewal services at the Westportexam station in Sioux Falls. On-line appointment scheduling willbe expanded to the other SiouxFalls station and to stations inRapid City and Aberdeen within amonth. •Call 1-800-952-3696 to sched-ule an appointment for renewalservices in Sioux Falls. That serv-ice will be available in Rapid Cityand Aberdeen within the month,also. •Follow SDDriverlicense onTwitter for updates on wait timesat the Sioux Falls, Rapid City andAberdeen exam stations and forother news and general informa-tion on the Driver Licensing Pro-gram.

Citizens can make their driverlicensing renewal experience morepleasant by using online or tele-phone services to schedule an ap-pointment and checking status ofwait times on Twitter, said CindyGerber, director of the Driver Li-censing Program.

Governor’s driver licensing plan working

“We will have periods when waittimes are higher than the averageand others when they are verylow,’’ Gerber said. “The start of theday often is busy, and noon hourscan be slower as we give our exam-iners lunch breaks in shifts. Occa-sionally, longer than average waittimes are unavoidable becauselarge numbers of people show upat the same time. However, we arecommitted to making our servicesas quick and convenient as possi-ble. Giving our customers the op-portunity to schedule appoint-ments and providing real-time in-formation on wait times throughTwitter help us to meet that com-mitment. The first seven weeks ofthe improvement plan show we aregoing the right direction.’’

Fridays tend to be busy times atthe Sioux Falls stations. On theFriday before the improvementplan was implemented, July 6, av-erage wait times were about 43minutes at the Administration siteand 64 minutes at Westport. OnFriday, August 24, average waittimes were slightly less than 21minutes at Admin and slightlymore than 23 minutes at Westport.

Governor Daugaard also di-rected the Driver Licensing Pro-gram to move forward as quicklyas possible with self-service kiosksand online renewal services. Thoseservices will help driver licensecustomers not only in Sioux Fallsbut also in the other exam stationsacross the state. A combination of the normallybusy summer months and a seriesof unexpected staff vacancies cre-ated the long-line situation at theSioux Falls stations, Gerber said.The improvement plan eased thewaiting while new staff memberswere hired and trained. Gerbersays while occasional wait timesstill are longer than desired, thosetend to be a few complicated is-sues.

Soyou may want to take this occasionto think of ways you can help thosegrandchildren get the most out oftheir lives. Perhaps the most valuable thingyou could give to your grandkids isthe gift of education. Consider this:Over a lifetime, college graduatesearn, on average, about $1 millionmore than those without a degreeaccording to the Census Bureau.So, putting money toward yourgrandchildren’s college educationis probably a pretty good invest-ment. Furthermore, your grandchil-dren may well need the help, be-cause college is expensive andcosts continue to rise. Conse-quently, you may want to con-tribute to a 529 plan. You have sev-eral options for how the money canbe invested and contribution limitsare quite high. All withdrawals arefree from federal income taxes,provided the money is used forqualified college expenses. (Keepin mind, though, that non-quali-fied withdrawals will be taxableand possibly subject to penalties.)Plus, if you invest in your own

state’s 529 plan, your contribu-tions may be deductible on yourstate income taxes. If you name one grandchild as abeneficiary of a 529 plan and thatgrandchild decides not to go to col-lege, you can switch the account toanother grandchild — in otherwords, you maintain control of themoney for the life of the account. Of course, despite its economicbenefits, college is not for every-one. So if you wanted to provide fi-nancial help to a grandchild whoseems likely to choose a differentroute in life, what could you do? One possibility is to set up a cus-todial account, often known as anUGMA (Uniform Gift to MinorsAct) or UTMA (Uniform Transferto Minors Act). You can fund a cus-todial account with many differenttypes of investments, but the useof the money is entirely up to yourgrandchildren when they reachthe age of termination in whateverstate in which they live. But ifyour reason for funding a custodialaccount is simply to provide a gift,then you might not be concernedwith how the money is used. On the other hand, if you wantto give your grandchildren a finan-cial gift with greater control, youmay want to speak to your attor-ney about your options. One possi-bility is to set up an irrevocabletrust. You can fund this trust witheither cash or securities and spec-ify at the time the trust is createdwhen the funds can be used. SoFor example, you can provide thatthe trust pay your grandchild acertain amount of money at oneage, with another installment com-ing several years later. Keep inmind, though, that trusts are com-plex instruments and may havetax considerations, so in additionto consulting with an attorney,you’ll want to discuss your planswith your tax advisor. Whichever option is right foryour family, use GrandparentsDay as an opportunity to considerthe ways in which you can givesomething to the grandchildrenwho give so much to you.

By Pastor Cornelius R.Stam

Has the cashier at therestaurant or the check-outgirl at the supermart beenasking you: “Do you havethe two cents?” or “Youdon’t have the change, doyou?” If so, it’s becausethere is a coin shortage allover the U.S. and will befor some time.

All kinds of coin-usingmachines have created ashortage of coins for otherpurposes. Isn’t it strange: apenny is hardly worth pick-ing up these days, andPresident Eisenhowercalled our dollars “dol-larettes,” yet people seemto be spending moremoney in small amounts.

You can make more andmore purchases with coinsthese days. Some peoplesay that you can buy any-thing with money, butthey’re wrong — verywrong.

The things we needmost cannot be boughtwith any amount of money.The air we breathe, thewater we drink (we payonly for the service), love

of family and friends.These things can’t bebought. And the most pre-cious treasure of all: salva-tion, eternal life, can’t bebought at any price.

God doesn’t want ourmoney. He calls it “filthylucre.” He’s not going intobusiness, selling housesand lots in heaven, muchless will He pervert justiceand pronounce us inno-cent for a consideration.But He does pity and loveus and He can and willgive us eternal life if wetrust in the merits of theOne who died to pay thepenalty for our sins.

“The gift of God is eter-nal life through JesusChrist our Lord” (Rom.6:23).

“For by grace are yesaved, through faith, andthat not of yourselves, it isthe gift of God” (Eph. 2:8).

Our Lord said to theSamaritan woman:

“If thou knewest the giftof God… thou wouldesthave asked…” (John4:10).

Have you asked?

80 years ago…Wall won a ragged game of ball

from Murdo on the local field Sun-day. A total of 35 runs were madein the 10 inning game — 18 forWall and 17 for Murdo.

Fire at the Experimental Farmnear Cottonwood destroyed thebarn and 100 tons of hay. No live-stock except one calf were burned.The cause of the fire was un-known.

The Wall fire department wascalled out this morning at 10:30 o’-clock to the south part of townwhere some weeds caught fire andthreatened some buildings but itwas soon put out.

Sioux Falls was firmly in thegrip of a milk strike this morning.Ten highways leading into the citywere picketed by farmers in theireffort to force Sioux Falls distribu-tors to meet their demands for anincrease price for their dairy prod-uct. The strike began shortly aftermidnight following a mass meet-ing. Farmers declared a determi-nation to “strike for 60 days if it isnecessary” in order to make dis-tributors pay $1.75 a hundredpounds for milk.

70 years ago… After thirty-five years of contin-uous and faithful duty to the Pen-nington County Courant, the oldDiamond Press is being retiredfrom active service this week giv-ing way to a more standard andmodern press — the Babcock-Cot-trell drum cylinder which was in-stalled over the weekend. The oldDiamond was bought by E. S.Johnston and has spent its entirelivelihood in the towns of Quinnand Wall working for the Penning-ton County Courant and still ear-lier as the Quinn Times. It printeda total of 1700 editions of the paperwithout missing an issue. TheCourant is grateful to a greatmany who assisted in getting thenew press set up and ready for op-eration. Although Billy Hustead andPhilip Johnston thought they hadtaken necessary precautions tocontrol their trash fire, it still gotaway Friday afternoon and startedspreading over the lots south of theHustead residence. The fire alarmwas sounded, and soon the wholetown was out fighting their firstprairie fire of the season. Armedwith portable water fighting equip-ment and flaps, the crew followedthe blaze out across the Resettle-ment property and kept the firefrom going anyplace exceptstraight a head. The roadway andthe slough soon stopped whatcould have been a serious fire, withvery little if any damage. On Sat-urday afternoon, Owanka firefighters were called to help put outa grain field fire at JohnMaxwell’s. About three acres ofgrain were destroyed. 60 years ago… Ernie Fosness played rather amean trick on a car thief. Fosnessleft his old car outside of Dixon’sgarage with the key in the ignitionand only a small amount of gas inthe tank, one night last week. Thefollowing morning when he wentto look for his car, sure enough itwas gone. After looking aroundtown for the car, he started towardWasta. He was quite certain that ifthey went west with the car, therewouldn’t be enough gas to reachWasta. Sure enough he found hiscar half-way between the twotowns — out of gas. Now Erniewonders who took his car. No traceof the guilty party has been found. The Wall grade school broke allrecords Monday with a total en-rollment of 106. Last year this fig-ure was 89. Nineteen first gradersis one reason for this high figure.The high school enrolled 56, fourmore than a year ago. August Harnisch, brother ofAnton Harnisch, was one of 19who graduated Sunday from St.Mary’s School of Practical Nursingin Pierre. Mr. Harnisch was em-ployed by the Veteran’s Adminis-tration at Ft. Meade before enter-ing the one-year nursing course of-fered at St. Mary’s. It is the firsttime the school has graduated amale practical nurse.

Their next sale will be Sep-tember 10, when a horse sale willfollow the regular cattle cale. The Wall school opened thisweek with a total enrollment ofonly two short of 400. Supt.
