Two 250-gallon shuttles were opened and 500 gallons of Durango herbicide were emptied onto the ground. Also, gas caps were stolen from nine of 11 small engines stored in the same general area. The retail value of the herbicide is over $10,000, while the missing items are estimated at around $100. On top of the loss is the cost of the cleanup. Walking from the elevator to the offices, Jay Baxter, Philip site man- ager, noticed a liquid when every- thing should have been frozen on the 20-degree morning. Then the cleanup began. “We got busy. It was a long two days,” said Baxter. Though 500 gal- lons is a very small percentage of the herbicide the business has on hand, it took many man hours and involved many regulations to cleanup. All necessary calls were made immediately from Midwest Cooperatives to city, county, state and beyond. The incident was re- lated to local law authorities, cor- porate headquarters, the city of Philip, the Philip Volunteer Fire Department and others. Liquid had pooled around the containers, and pooled in the storm sewer, though was stopped just feet from entering the Bad River. None of the conta- minent reached the river. Immediately a pallet’s worth of floor dry was applied. A backhoe and an excavator were used to take out the contaminated rock and soil. Near the shuttles, this was shallow digging because frost was still in the ground. Rock and dirt at the end of the storm sewer drain “was more challenging,” said Baxter. “It was difficult to get the equipment down to the fill site and it was full of large rocks and cement.” “To ensure a professional cleanup, we decided to dig approx- imately five feet down and take all rocks and soil to Pierre’s landfill,” said Baxter. It took three semi- loads to transport the material. This part was completed around 8:00 p.m. Tuesday evening. Haakon County Emergency Manager Lola Roseth was one of the officials contacted. “When there is a hazardous materials (hazmat) spill in Haakon County, it is my job to notify the State Office of Emer- gency Management duty officer with the identified chemical, amount of spillage, a detailed sum- mary, resource requests, incident commander data and other infor- mation. If possible, I go to the scene,” stated Roseth. “I was very impressed with the quick response and actions taken by Midwest Co- op. They followed their protocol, which is in accordance with state law, and were very thorough.” The next day, Midwest Coopera- tives put in place a holding tank below the storm sewer. With the help of the city of Philip, and Sustin Lurz and Radley Kennedy we were successfully able to flush and clean the storm drain by 6:00 p.m. Tuesday, said Baxter. “Water samples and dirt samples have been taken to the lab in Rapid City to ensure this matter was profes- sionallly handled. Now we are waiting for the Department of (En- vironment and) Natural Resources to close this matter so we can re- claim the land. We are going to bring in boulders or large rock to make it esthetically better than the way we found it,” said Baxter. “I feel fortunate that this was a lower impact chemical as far as en- vironmental concerns, but, again, we treated this as any chemical spill should be treated. The corpo- rate office has staff who walked us through assessing the situation and support in ensuring this was minimal impact, and the cleanup was swift and professional,” said Baxter. “Cost of the cleanup is un- determined at this time. It will be substantial. We’re committed to a large number of man hours and re- sources.” The PVFD tender truck was used, and the PVFD personnel were available if the clean-up re- quired more help. The Philip city police, Haakon County sheriff’s office and the South Dakota Highway Patrol were all notified. “At this time, they didn’t leave a lot of evidence at the scene. The case is still open,” said Sheriff Fred Koester. If any- one has information concerning the case, contact law enforcement. Baxter believes the vandal or vandals do not realize the mag- natude of what was done. Vandalism, chemical spill at Midwest Dirt and rock had to be excavated from below the storm sewer. The sewer had to be flushed of the Durango herbicide, which had to be pumped out and taken away. Vandal(s) spilled 500 gallons of the liquid sometime Monday evening or early Tuesday morning. None of the contaminant reached Bad River. This view is from the Highway 73 Bad River bridge south of Philip. Photo by Del Bartels by Del Bartels The Philip High School drama department will be performing two one-act plays this year for its all-school production. Perform- ances will be at 6:30 p.m., Thurs- day and Friday, April 11-12, in the Fine Arts Building. “... we are doing two one-acts, though they are not associated at all. Sort of a double feature of our own,” said director Laura O’Con- nor. “We saw them both per- formed at the state one-act play festival, liked them and wanted to perform both of them. I also wanted to try it this way this year rather than doing a two-act play as I usually do. It's been a good decision so far. Both are comedies, though “The Mous- tache” is actually a political satire – a stretch for me.” “I have a lot of new kids on the stage and to find a play to acco- modate all of them would have been quite an undertaking, thus the reason for two plays,” stated O’Connor. The comedy “27 Goldfish” was written by Lance DeRoos and was presented by the original cast at Sioux Falls Lincoln High School. It is full of hilarious situ- ations and slapstick. Three main plots are wrapped around each other and keep the action going strong. An im- promptu cast has only minutes remaining in preparing for a di- rector’s-vision performance of “Hamlet.” A PETA inspector is on a mission to close down anything and everything that doesn’t treat animals better than humans. This version of Shakespear’s orig- inal tragedy has exchanged three swine for 30 goldfish. This oddity runs into complications when the bagged fish begin going bellyup. While trying to keep the in- spector and her wimpy assistant in the dark, the cast is entwined in the gossip that one of the male cast members is mistreating his cast member girlfriend. The gos- sip not only is rampant and is reason for group retaliation, but is wrong. The minutes tick by, and the director still hasn’t in- formed the two main actors which part will be done by which actor. Everything works out in the end and the show must go on. Brad Pfeifle is the avant garde director. The inspector is por- trayed by Rachel Parsons. The rest of the zany cast is played by Brad Pfeifle, Brian Pfeifle, Amanda McIlravy, Quade Slovek, Shelby Schofield, Keegan Burnett, Kelsie Kroetch, Garrett Snook, James Fitzgerald, Josh Quinn, Nathan Wooden Knife, Brooke Nelson, Sagan McClen- don, Nelson Holman and Ted'Dee Buffalo “The Moustache” was written by Davis Alianiello, who was 17- years-old at the time. This com- edy/political satire chronicals the political rise to ruthless power by a timid, wife-dominated wimp whose sole attribute is he is so nice. He is told to grow a mous- tache to help his image as a stronger, more self-confident leader. The moustache slowly takes over. He talks to it, it talks back; all the while the wimp changes into the opposite of nice and meek. The main character is played by Sam Stangle. His best friend and political consultant is played by Carl Poss. His wife is por- trayed by Jane Poss. The growing and ever-dominant moustache is played by Tate DeJong. Narra- tors are Parsons, Brad Pfeifle, Kroetch, Schofield and Nelson. Other cast members are Brian Pfeifle, Holman, Fitzgerald, Mc- Clendon, Snook, Burnett, McIl- ravy, Buffalo, Quinn, Quade Slovek and Wooden Knife. Brock Hanson and Cole Rothenberger are in charge of lights and sound for both shows. All-school play double feature In “The Moustache,” two of the narrators wonder if the audience will get the satirical point, while behind them the angry citizens take revenge on the nice wimp who became their ruthless leader.

The Easter Bunny was present for picture taking. Three age divisions of one to three years old, four to six years old, and seven years to third grade raced for plastic eggs. One egg in each cordoned-off section of the park contained a ticket for a grand prize of a “basket full of stuff.” The one to three year old division child to find the grand prize ticket in his egg was Jayden Berdin. The seven year old to third grade winner was Ryker Peterson. The four to six year old winner was Garrett Ladue, son of Kathy Ladue from Iowa visiting her brother, Ron Larson. Shown is Dylan Terkildsen and the Easter Bunny. by Del Bartels During its monthly meeting, Monday, April 1, the Philip city council covered that the two street projects for this summer are on schedule. SPN personnel are on site and beginning the construction staking for the Wood Avenue and Walden Avenue street improvement proj- ect. The tentative start date for the actual work is April 8. The start point is still in question, when going from the south to the north or vice versa. The street committee will help to determine that. “Be pa- tient, it’s going to be a long seven months,” said Finance Officer Monna Van Lint. Council mem- bers, particularly Marion Matt who lives on Wood Avenue, are hoping that neighbors will help other neighbors with parking difficulties during the street project. The E. Pine Street and Wray Av- enue project is scheduled to begin mid to late summer. The council is trying to get a firm commitment on the start date, preferably begin- ning before August. J&J Asphalt currently does not have excess lia- bility coverage, which is no prob- lem for the council as long as they can show proof of the coverage be- fore they start work. Building permits were granted for Greg Arthur to put in a new water line, for Kent Buchholz to put in an egress window and a deck, for Doug Hart to do emer- gency sewer line repair, and for Kevin Pfeifle to put in a 14’x14’ pergola. Until after a meeting Thursday, the council tabled a permit for D&T Auto Parts to put in an access road across a drainage ditch. “It is your land, but it is also storm drainage,” said Mayor Mike Vetter. A building permit for Marty Hansen to move a house is under review. Requirements are for the footings to be at least 42 inches to the frost line. “If we don’t have him do it, nobody will have to do it ... nobody wants to make him, but ....said Vetter. Council member Marty Gartner said, “Its going to be a ben- efit to him if he ever wants to sell it.” The new residential garbage col- lection contract will dictate an in- crease of $2.67 per household per month. These new garbage rates will be effective with the July 1 utility billing. Free dump weekend is Friday and Saturday, May 10-11, The site will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 Philip street projects a go for this summer p.m. both days. The rain dates are May 17-18. Senior citizens/disabled person pick-up is Monday, May 13. Rubble site summer hours begin May 4. The site will be open on the first, third and fifth Saturday’s and second and fourth Friday’s from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. City bills pending as of April 1 totaled over $56,936. Triple XXX Spraying, Inc. under new ownership, will keep the charges for its services in 2013 for the city the same as were set in 2012. The council approved the first reading of Ordinance #2013-03, which replaces the old chapter five with an updated chapter five of the public utilities sections of city ordi- nances.

Lookin’ Around by Syd Iwan

I killed three birds with onestone, so to speak, on Friday. Wehad Good-Friday services sched-uled at the church so I calledaround and set it up to have atownship meeting at the churchhall before services and a church-board meeting there afterwards. Itworked a treat. We were able to getall three get-togethers done in onetrip. This sort of thing doesn’t happenvery often it seems. Lives tend tobe busy, and getting five or six peo-ple to agree on a time and place fora meeting may take awhile. As aresult, it’s a nice surprise wheneveryone can come at the sametime. It just happened to work outon Friday because those needed forthe meetings were coming to Good-Friday services anyway. Coming alittle earlier or leaving a little laterdidn’t make much difference. When mileage and time are aconcern in this far-flung areawhere going to town involves atleast a half hour both going andcoming, combining tasks justseems a sensible idea. In otherwords, I saved two hours of travel-ing time alone on Friday by sched-uling three meetings on the sameday. Then too, besides the expendi-tures of travel time and gas money,it interrupts a day to put downyour tools and run off to town.Sometimes it’s hard to get muchelse done on those days. Similar organizational highjinks have been going on all mylife, it seems, just because we liveso far out in the sticks. If you’regoing to go to town, you might aswell do a bunch of stuff so you don’thave to return right away. WifeCorinne learned early on in ourmarriage that my trips to townwere apt to involve a whole lot ofstops. I might visit the post office,bank, hardware store, grocery,court house, gas station and sev-eral other places. I might evendrop off eggs here and there. Tento fifteen stops were not uncom-mon. After awhile, Corinne wouldinquire where all I was planning togo before agreeing to ride along. Ifthe number of stops seemed exces-sive in her view, she might decideshe had too much work to do athome and couldn’t go along thatday. If she had someone she couldvisit in town while I dashed hereand there, that was okay. Other-

wise, forget it. By the way, doing one job rightafter another is just fine with usfellows. What we aren’t too good atis multitasking. Gals have the edgeon us there. They seem able tokeep several plates spinning onsticks at the same time whereaswe guys prefer one at a time. I evenget a little frustrated when I pre-pare some meals. I find it difficultto get the meat, potatoes, veg-etable, salad and gravy all ready atthe same time. Far easier are one-pot meals such as when you throwa roast in the oven and later addpotatoes and carrots to the samepan. Even simpler is unwrapping afrozen pizza and sticking it in theoven for a while or heating a can ofsoup. Simplicity often wins theday. This week, though, was a tri-umph of scheduling. On Thursday,we had to visit the clinic since sonChance had a sore on his lip thatneeded attention. After that, I sug-gested we stop by the hairdresserto see if we could all get haircutssince Chance and I were gettingpretty shaggy. To my great sur-prise, both gals happened to haveopenings just then so Chance andCorinne could get their hairclipped at the same time with minebeing done just after. If we’d comea little earlier or a little later, itwouldn’t have worked out. We hap-pened to time it just right, though,so it did. I was pleased. As you might imagine, I’ve aboutrun my course on combiningevents. Luckily, there is nothingmuch on the schedule that wouldrequire it. In other words, I haveno plans to kill any birds with anystones. As far as I know, there isactually nothing specific scheduledfor the rest of the year althoughsomething will no doubt come up. Ican happily plod from bill paying toaccounting to cooking to going tochurch. None of this multiple-meeting business or multitasking.That’s fine with me. That’s actu-ally the way I prefer it. Theremight even be enough time to siton the deck occasionally and listento the meadowlarks sing. Theyhave recently returned so the timeto enjoy them has, of necessity,been added to my “busy” schedule.Now might be a good time to go dothat. Catch you later.

Here be dragons ... by Del Bartels

Ancient maps of ship routes often depicted uncharted areas of water

with an artistic rendition of a sea-going dragon and the warning “Here

be dragons.” This has been interpreted by many historians in one of

two ways; either it was a whimsical way of saying the area was un-

known and possibly void of any land, food and fresh water, or it was a

way of saying that the unknown was simply dangerous.

I believe, in actuality, it was an enticement for sea-faring adventur-

ers to go find the dragons. By doing so, the area would then be charted.

The unknown, even if it be dangerous, was what many early explorers

craved. To find a water route to silks, to exotic spices, to even regular

trade items was the centuries-long push to explore the world. Such

grand adventures have been the starting point for many legends and

myths. Who is to say that the New World doesn’t still hold a lost city

of gold or a fountain of youth? Adventurers, by definition, prized any

newly discovered area as a reason for the adventure. Never before seen

grand canyons, mountain ranges, islands, jungles or whatever could

be described as an area full of the treasure of discovery. A new civiliza-

tion, such as the Incas, could be said to be a city of great value to the

adventurer’s heart, a type of city of gold. Early explorers, in order to

want to be such explorers, had to have a love for life and for the un-

known. This could be described as a youthful lust for life, a fountain of

youth.

The unknown, the dangerous, the enticing can often be seen in his-

tory and literature being depicted as dragons. Family crests displayed

over the fireplace mantel or on the knight’s shield often had a silhou-

ette of a dragon. The Chinese empire is the land of the dragon. Being

said to be a dragon slayer gave a knight in shining armor an enviable

reputation. Even today, the correlation still exists. It wasn’t too many

years ago when a common phrase stated by corporate problem-solvers

was that they were going out to slay some dragons. Movies, video

games, cartoons and even songs portray dragons. Who can forget the

mighty and magical Puff?

We need more areas where a blazing sign should exclaim, “Here be

dragons!” The worst thing that can be said about any job, come the end

of the day, is that it was boring. What child wants to grow up to be bor-

ing? Yet, almost every child’s eyes light up when the word “dragon” is

mentioned. The beginning of kindergarten can be frightening, mostly

just because it is still unknown until the youngster lives through it. A

paraphrase being stated after most neat things is, “Now that I know I

can survive it, can I do it again?” Your first job, your first kiss, your

first solo drive in the family car, your first ... well, anything ... can be

a dragon. Adventurers reveled in this. The label on ancient maps

wasn’t a warning, it was a declaration of adventure. I want to boldly

go forth to a place where there are dragons.

early Season wheat Disease Update

While winter wheat producersare anxiously waiting for warmertemperatures to see if there is achance of a crop, and spring wheatproducers are waiting for the op-portunity to plant, there are re-ports of rust development in sev-eral southern states in wheatfields and nurseries. Leaf andstripe rust have already beenfound in Texas, even earlier than2012, which was much earlier thannormal. Stripe rust has also beenobserved in Mississippi, Arkansasand Louisiana. Stripe rust wasseen in Arkansas back in the be-ginning of December, which maybe the earliest it has ever beenseen it there. South Dakota producers willneed to watch the progression upfrom Texas this year because itcould be a concern if the conditionsare right. Reports of stripe rustand leaf rust from Texas are im-portant, because weather systemsoften transport the rust sporesfrom these regions into Oklahoma,Kansas and on up through Ne-braska to South Dakota. If stripe

and/or leaf rust continues to de-velop in the southern states, pro-ducers may need to evaluate thefeasibility of fungicide applicationson susceptible varieties. SDSU Extension Plant Pathol-ogy Specialists and Field Special-ists strive to keep producers in-formed, but growers can also mon-itor the situation on the USDA Ce-real Rust Laboratory website:http://www.ars.usda.gov/Main/docs.htm?docid=9757. On that web-site, visitors can access the currentrust situation, 2013 and pastyears’ cereal rust bulletins, rustobservation maps, and a wealth ofinformation on cereal diseases.University and private individualscan also submit rust and other ce-real disease observations for theirarea to contribute to the reports.

New Fusarium Head BlightPrediction Center

The Fusarium Head Blight Pre-diction Center has been re-designed and the new version isnow active. The growth stage inwhich wheat is vulnerable toFusarium Head Blight (FHB orscab) is certainly a ways off forSouth Dakota, but it’s good to be

aware of the tool, which can be ac-cessed at: http://www.wheatscab.psu.edu/. The website offers risk assess-ment for roughly the eastern halfof the United States. Visitors canchoose a state to zoom in on theirarea, choose the model of eitherspring or winter wheat, the sus-ceptibility of the variety and see anoverview of the risk of scab fortheir location. The map is populated with bothFAA and AgNet weather stations,which can be clicked for up-to-dateinformation at the site. More de-tailed information can be accessedby clicking “Query”, and then theweather station of your choice.Scab risk and probability, temper-ature, precipitation and humidityare shown for the previous week atthat site.

A soil health workshop was pre-sented Monday, March 25, at thePhilip Fire Hall. It was sponsoredby the Haakon County Soil Conser-vation District, with expertisegiven through the United StatesDepartment of Agriculture’s Na-tional Resource Conservation Serv-ice. The seminar was open to thepublic. The two-hour session used tabletop models. Though aimed at theagriculture/farming side of soilhealth, the information can also beuseful for gardeners. Jeff Hemanway, NRCS soil qual-ity specialist, Huron, presentedthree soil health demonstrationmodels that are now availablethrough the district. The presenta-tions include how managementchanges can affect soil structure,water erosion, water infiltrationand wind erosion. Under cropland conditions,runoff and erosion are acceleratedby tillage and water infiltration issubstantially reduced. How watermoves through the soil is affectedby inherit soil characteristics andchanges in management. Soils thatare tilled bare are susceptible towind erosion. Hemanway said thattilling also destroys the benefits oforganic loosening done by decayingroot systems, worms and other fac-tors. Sheila Trask, Haakon CountyConservation District manager,said, “Jeff Hemanway, soil scientistof Huron, gave a great demonstra-tion of the three soil health mod-ules – wind erosion, infiltration,runoff – that HCCD now has avail-able to use in schools, farm shows,etc.” “Well, tonight's soil seminar atthe Philip Fire Hall was quite fas-cinating,” said Elke Baxter,founder of the Philip Garden Club.“There were demonstrations ofwind erosion, water erosion andwater penetration in varieties ofsoil. If I had any doubts or ques-tions about rototilling or just dig-

ging under my raised beds versusnot – they've all been erased andanswered. The amount of waterbeing utilized by non-tilled soil ver-sus tilled is astounding, as is gen-eral soil health. Sure made a be-liever out of me.”

For more information, or toarrange for these models to be usedby an individual or organization asfield days or classroom demonstra-tions, contact Trask at 859-2186extension 3.

Tillage may be the worst thingright now that could happen for soilin South Dakota fields, said conser-vation officials. Spring tillage is a tradition thatis steeped deeply into Americanagriculture. Now, more and moreproducers are realizing that tillageis not in the best interest of theirsoil’s health. “Tillage was once considered nec-essary in order to prepare a properseed bed for planting. Now, weknow that we can produce as muchor more grain without tilling thesoil,” said Jason Miller, conserva-tion agronomist with the NaturalResources Conservation Service,Pierre. “Tillage passes reduce surfacesoil moisture, but more alarming isthat fact that tillage is incrediblydestructive to soil; it is like a tor-nado going through a house,” saidMiller. Tillage collapses and de-stroys organic matter and soilstructure. “Those macro pores inthe soil structure are essential–they are what helps water to infil-trate the soil profile,” he said.

“The possibility of 2013 being an-other dry year should have produc-ers rethinking their use of tillage,”said Miller. In a tilled condition,soil is vulnerable to erosion. “Asdry as the soil profile is starting outthis year, even getting the cropseeded will be difficult without aconcern for wind erosion,” saidMiller. Winds during the springeasily pick up soil particles ontilled fields before crops can be-come established. “Reducing or eliminating tillage,increases surface residue, buildsorganic matter and preserves soilhealth,” said Miller. Improvedcropping systems for building soilshould include no-till, diverse highresidue producing crop rotationsand cover crops. Producers interested in learningmore about soil health or wantingtechnical assistance for implement-ing a soil health management sys-tem on their farm or ranch shouldcontact their local NRCS office orvisit the Soil Health InformationCenter at www.nrcs.usda.gov.

TheSouth Dakota Farm Bureau alongwith the South Dakota Depart-ment of Agriculture would like torecognize and honor these SouthDakota Century Farms. If your family has retained own-ership of a farm or ranch for 100years or more in South Dakota, andif the farm consists of a minimumof 80 acres of the original farmland,you may be qualified in havingyour farm or ranch honored as aCentury Farm. If your family has owned at least80 acres of the same farm or ranchfor at least 125 years, you are eligi-ble to apply for QuasquicentennialFarm recognition. The recognition ceremony isscheduled to start at 10:00 a.m.,Thursday, August 29, at the state

fairgrounds in Huron.

The artist in residence programat Badlands National Park has se-lected watercolor painter JudyThompson for its spring 2013 resi-dency. Chosen from a pool of more than30 applicants, Thompson will im-merse herself in and be inspired bythe park’s unique resources duringher stay. The artist in residence programat Badlands National Park has ex-isted since 1996. It invites writers,composers, and visual and per-forming artists to interpret thelandscape through their work. Vis-iting artists also lead activities inlocal schools in order to supportBadlands’ commitment to educa-tion and outreach into rural schooldistricts. Upon completion of theresidency, each resident artist con-tributes an original work to thepark. Based in Iowa, Thompson is anaward winning watercolorist withextensive experience as an educa-tor and workshop presenter. “I ama visual artist who is captivated bythe beauty and history of the GreatPlains,” said Thompson. “My goalis to create a body of work on theBadlands landscape which por-trays a sense of place and history,”Thompson said. “The opportunityto share with students in a class-

room is an exciting prospect forme.” The program provides time forartists to get away from every dayresponsibilities to focus on theirsurroundings and their medium.Selected artists live in park hous-ing during their residencies, whichtake place in the spring and fall.

After a decade of sniffing out ex-plosives with a nose-to-the-groundwork ethic, Jet is retiring from theSouth Dakota Highway Patrol. Jet, an 11-year-old Belgiansheepdog, began his career withthe highway patrol in 2003 as a po-lice service dog trained to detectthe odors of many different com-pounds that could be used to con-struct explosive devices. Jet officially retired March 6.Governor Dennis Daugaard issueda proclamation marking the occa-sion, saying, “It is important tohonor veteran police service dogswho are faithful, loyal and devotedto their responsibilities and provide

a valuable service to their SouthDakota communities.’’ Lt. Scott Sheldon has been thedog’s handler for the past decade.“The K-9 explosives detection unitis different from the K-9 narcoticsunit. We’re not like the dope dogs.We don’t want to find anything,”said Sheldon Jet has been used to sweepthrough the state Capitol and otherfacilities and locations, said Col.Craig Price, superintendent of thehighway patrol. “He is also able todetect recently fired weapons atvenues such as the Sturgis Motor-cycle Rally,’’ Price said. “He hasbeen a great partner to LieutenantSheldon and has helped with manyseizures and the capture of crimi-nals.” Price said the explosive detectionduties will be assumed by TrooperMichael Dale and PSD Raica. Based in Pierre and deployedthroughout the state, Jet com-pleted protective sweeps of thestate Capitol during legislative ses-sions, Supreme Court hearings andother official functions. Sheldonand Jet also responded to bombthreats and provided dignitary pro-tection functions including assign-ments for the United States SecretService, police and sheriffs’ depart-ments, schools and universities. “Jet is a very social dog butknows when it is time to work,’’Sheldon said. “When he is off duty,I give him his food and his kennel.He doesn’t need to worry about obe-dience training after work. Justlike any other enforcement agentwith the patrol, Jet becomes morefocused when he is on duty.” Jet will be released from SouthDakota service into the care ofSheldon and his family. “I’ll have tokeep him in his kennel for a whilewhen I am putting on my uniform,’’Sheldon said. “He knows when it istime to go to work, and now that hewon’t get to go with me, he’ll be alittle cranky.”

Dona Mae Mitchell, age 77, ofElko, Nev., died Wednesday,March 20, 2013, in Elko.

It was a warm winter day inCulver City, Calif., on January 28,1936, when Dona Mae Englandcame into the world, the secondchild and only daughter of SarahMay (Reasoner) and Carlyle “Ted”England. Her father had been outcelebrating her birth and later,misspelled her name on her birthcertificate; she loved the story andthe specialty of the spelling de-lighted her. She quickly learnedwhat an older brother was andadored Carlyle “Carl” from thenuntil the day she died.

Tragedy struck this little familyearly when at only 34 years old,Sarah died in the spring of 1939.Dona Mae, at the age of three, wassent to a boarding school at thistime, for over a year until Ted mar-ried Thelma Dorthea Knapp andshe got to go home with her newmommy, daddy and older brother.

Dona Mae completed her educa-tion in southern California, attend-ing University High School butgraduating from Santa MonicaHigh, Class of 1954. During highschool, she worked at a Santa Mon-ica hospital, meeting her lifelongtreasured friend, Isabelle Barks,with whom she shared a birth dateand a most precious friendship.There she noticed a handsome or-derly as well. She would tell the

story of how she would quickly eather lunch, then go outside, peeringthrough window waiting for him.After he finished his lunch, shewould race inside and down thehall just in time to intercept himcoming out of the cafeteria. Younglove blossomed and in May of 1955Dona Mae married Donald JamesWeldon, becoming the proud wife ofa U.S. Navy sailor. To this uniontwo children were born, MichaelDean in 1956 and Rebecca Suzannein 1960. As is often the case withyoung love, this relationship ended,but not before moving north intothe southern Bay Area of Califor-nia.

Dona Mae began her ventureinto single parenting down thestreet from one who would becomeone of her two most favorite friendsof all her life, Liz (Fuentes) Fultz.Liz had a single, good-lookingbrother, Donald Frank Fuentes,who soon became Dona’s secondhusband in April of 1964. Thisunion was blessed with anotherdaughter in November of 1968,Diana Christine. They enjoyed 37years together of laughter, familygatherings, car business ventures,nice homes, and the raising of twodaughters in Campbell, Calif., nearto both of their parents and all ofDon’s siblings and their families.

After the daughters were grownand gone, business venturescaused a move to Elko, Nev., in1991, where they began a new lifenear the base of the beautiful RubyMountain Range. Although hatingto leave California, they bothquickly grew to enjoy their new life.Donald passed away, very sud-denly, in October of 2001.

Dona Mae had a passion for ourlanguage and words; she had a vo-racious appetite for writing letters,reading, crossword puzzles – inink, and the game of scrabble inwhich she could be a ruthless com-petitor.

Dona was blessed again with“young love” at the age of 67 whenshe met and married Dean HaroldMitchell in April of 2003. She hadmet her match in scrabble, in wit-

tiness and an appreciation of Hol-lywood’s old movies. Dean andDona Mae spent almost 10 yearstogether sharing laughter, wits,and game playing. Suffering astroke in August of 2011, herhealth continued to decline untilDona Mae went to be with her pre-cious Lord Jesus on the first day ofspring, March 20, 2013, in Elko.

Dona Mae spent the last coupleyears of her stepmother’s life writ-ing about her wonderful memoriesof her growing up years, to Thelmaand thanking her. This was notonly lovely and compassionate; thiswas an act of great forgiveness.Dona was always able to search forjoy, the good in people and life nomatter what happened to her …this light will be missed.

Grateful for having shared herlife are her husband, Dean Mitchellof Elko; her children, Michael(Peggy) Weldon of Lancaster, Ohio,Rebecca (Rocky) Williams of PhilipS.D., and Diana Fuentes of Reno,Nev.; six grandchildren, JeremiahAdkins, Amber (Ron) Eaton,Joshua (Tiffany) Weldon, all ofLancaster, Ohio; Joshua (Jamie)Williams, Jonathan (Carrie)Williams, Lacy Williams, all ofRapid City; 11 great-grandchil-dren; her brother, Carl (Marie)England of Vallejo, Calif.; and sis-ter-in-law, Lotty Fuentes of Red-wood City, Calif.; and a host ofnieces and nephews.

Dona Mae was preceded indeath by her parents; her steppar-ents; her husband, DonaldFuentes; a sister-in-law, Liz Jones;a nephew, Doug Fultz; and abrother-in-law, Joe Fuentes.

Per her request, she was cre-mated.

Hope everyone had an enjoyableEaster gathering! It was a littlechilly finding those hidden Eastereggs. The little ones seemed toenjoy it anyway. It is a tradition.We had some nice days last week.With those warmer temperatures,and even with the lack of moisture,the lawn grass has started green-ing up in places. Jerry and Iworked on some tree roots, fromtree stumps, we’d had taken out.Jerry brought his tractor withbucket attached to town, trying tobreak loose some chunks of cementalong a sidewalk, where Mike andEmma Root used to live. We boughtthat property a number of yearsago. And with tree stumps gone, wedecided it would be nice to getthose chunks out, making it easierto mow. Well, were we in for a sur-prise! Some of those chunks of ce-ment turned out to be huge chunksof cement. It would be interestingto learn how they got there andwho put them there. From thelooks of them you wouldn’t havethought it would be much of a prob-lem to clear them out. But, whenyou got to the part under theground, it was a whole differentstory. And, then, it was raking thedeer, you do know what I mean,that was all over the lawn. If,someone could come up with a dia-per for deer, they would be rich.Needless to say, I was not havingpleasant thoughts about those deeras I raked, and raked, and raked.But, on a positive note, all that rak-ing cleared the lawn of deadgrasses. Guess it’s all in how youlook at things, right? I’m thinkingI better stop reminiscing about allthe fun Jerry and I had this pastweek and get on with the news. We were sorry to hear thatEdna Joy passed away. Stub andEdna were a big part of the Mid-land community. The service sta-tion and the apartment they livedin at the back of that service sta-tion at one time are no longerthere. It was torn down a numberof years ago. The house they even-tually bought and moved into yearslater was bought by LawrenceStroppel and he and Marlene nowlive in that house. In the obituaryof Edna Joy it told of Stub andEdna being married and going on ahoneymoon to the Black Hills in anew car Stub had just bought for$600. I did like reading that bit ofinformation. For anyone wishing toread her obituary you can go towww.rushfuneral home.com. Wewish to extend our sympathies tothe family of Edna (Eckert) Joy. Easter Sunday dinner guests atthe home of Judy Daly were hermom, Marie Anderson of the Sil-verleaf in Philip, Bill and LaVonneWheeler, Pierre, Steve and JulieDaly, Carson and Dane, Lynetteand Tim Hullinger and Shania andBruce and Linda Kroetch, Philip.Judy keeps us updated on hergrandsons, Carson and Dane, andthe journey of the trailer house weonce had and which now belongs toSteve and Julie. Though theyhaven’t had time to put it where itwill eventually be, the boys talkeddad into getting the TV hooked upin that trailer house. So, GrandmaJudy, Carson and Dane, watched

TV in that trailer house a whileback. Love those stories and theirexcitement over the whole thing.Thanks for sharing, Judy. Barb Jones said she and Morriehad a rather quiet Easter gather-ing at their house. Her mom, Ar-line Petoske, Philip Nursing Home,was there along with Jeff and JenJones, Stetson and Maysa. Jerry and Joy Jones had arather busy week. Wednesday,their granddaughter, CassidyTrapp, came for Easter break fromSchool of Mines in Rapid City.Thursday, Jerry and Joy attendedthe Easter party at the Deep CreekSchool. Their grandson, ZakSinkey, goes to the Deep CreekSchool. Betty Sinkey was also atthe Easter party as Zak is hergrandson, as well. I think Joysummed it up well when she said,“Always fun at country schools.”Those of us who had the privilegeof going to country schools havegreat memories of those years.There is just something specialabout country schools. Thursday evening, Scott andLoni Olson and Molly of Devil’sLake, N.D., arrived at the home ofLoni’s folks, Jerry and Joy Jones.Loni said they have a lot of snow attheir place in North Dakota.Thursday, Chauncey, Wyatt, andEmily Trapp came from Pierre toGrandpa and Grandma Jones’.They attend school in Pierre, theirmom, Debbie Trapp, works inPierre during the week and week-ends they come home where dad,Mike Trapp, has kept the homefires burning. Debbie had to workFriday, so came when she got offwork. Friday, all went to Good Fri-day services at Trinity LutheranChurch. Trinity Lutheran andOpen Bible Church share Good Fri-day services, taking turns. Follow-ing church services, all of theabove, plus Dick and Gene Hudsonwho were also at the church serv-ice, went to Trapp home for pizza.Earlier Wyatt Trapp had taken ad-vantage of everyone being homeputting them to work helping himplant potatoes on Good Friday. Youknow what they say about plantingpotatoes. In order to have a suc-cessful crop they need to be plantedon Good Friday. You can’t arguewith those old timers who know,now can you? Easter guests at Jerry and Joy’swere the Olsons, the Trapps, Russand Cindy Sinkey and Zak, Jodieand Bob Schremp and Baxter,Dupree, Neil Jones and Cody andAudrey Jones. Joy reports they hadtheir traditional treasure chesthunt in which clues at differentplaces lead them to that treasurechest. What a neat tradition! Shorty and Mickey Woitte’sdaughter, Robin and Josef Opitzand Kris came for Easter from Har-wood, N.D. They were all Easterdinner guests at the home of theirson, Joe and Bobbi Woitte, alongwith Joe and Bobbi’s daughter, T.J. and Kevin Kombs and girls ofRapid City. Bobbi’s sister, Jenny,and daughter of Sioux Falls werealso there. Easter guests at the home ofCalvin and Patricia Saucermanwere Miles and Laura Saucerman

They spent the weekendthere returning home Sunday.While at Terri's, they attended ababy shower for Jaylene Traversiein Pringle. It snowed the durationof their visit and reports areNathan really had fun shoveling offTerri's large deck (twice). Theyfound the Black Hills very beauti-ful with the fresh snow comingdown. Brigit and Lucas Schofield andEdith and Suzy Schofield are plan-ning a Schofield/Fosheim family re-union on June 8. A newsletter isbeing put together concerning thereunion, so be watching for that. Iknow a lot of time and work hasbeen put into organizing this wholereunion get-together. Easter guests at Randy andHolly Nemec’s were Kelly Vosbergand Dena Harmon, Ft. Pierre,Brian, Morgan, Tanner and TaitonOrtlieb, Black Hawk, (Katey had togo to Texas for work), Tyler,Chelsee, Addison and Joey Rankin,Murdo, and Tyler, Angel and EmryNemec, Midland. It was a rather different Fos-heim sisters Easter gathering thisyear. It was always a time whenthe aunts and uncles and their sib-lings got together. Now the auntsand uncles are not with us and arebut a memory. So, it was us cousinsand siblings. But we had a greattime. A time of sharing memoriesof family! Keith Hunt had the DVDof his mom, Ida Hunt’s funeralservice, as some of the cousins wereunable to make it due to weather.The pictures of those Fosheim sis-ters on the DVD brought backmemories of other Easter gather-ings, as a group picture was alwaystaken at those Easter gatherings.So, we have started another tradi-tion of picture taking. The grouppicture is now of cousins at thoseEaster gatherings. Of Esther andJohn Schanzenbach’s family, Ivanwas there, of Till and Danny Mulc-ahy, JoAnn and Paul Bork andShelby, and Gavin Snook, Kim-berly and Luke Nelson, Aiden andNoah, Aberdeen, of Emma andMike Root, Sylvia Huber, DeniseHuber, Kevin Huber, Bill, Baileyand Ethan Huber, all of Rapid City,

Of Ida and LyleHunt, Roy and Carol Hunt, KeithHunt, Christine Niedan, TeresaPalmer, Murdo, Jan Tolton,

and others of Christine’s siblingshelped, but it take someone to getthe ball rolling and that was Chris-tine. The cousins talked of gettingtogether next year, which is a goodthing. It keeps us in touch withthose we don’t often see. I am clos-ing my new’s column for this week.I missed some folks’ Easter news. Iwill get it next week. I have a doc-tor’s appointment for Tuesdaymorning, so am sending the newsin this Monday evening. Have agood week and continue to pray forthat much needed moisture.

Greetings from sunny, cool, dry-as-a-bone northeast HaakonCounty. There are lots of birds fly-ing overhead these days, headednorth, but they don't seem to bebringing any moisture with them.We had a few snowflakes on EasterDay, and we were thankful forevery single one of them, but weneed more rain or snow, and soon!The weatherman is talking aboutthe possibility of precipitation nextweekend, and I certainly hope he isright. I have spent some time in theyard recently, clearing off flowerbeds, pulling grass out of the as-paragus patch and winter onionpatch (tedious job), raking up pinecones, etc. – just general springyard work. I also got the waterhoses out so I could give some ofthe perennial veggies and flowers agood soaking, trying to give them achance of producing this year. Ifthe weather continues to be dry, Ithink the vegetable garden will bea little smaller this year. Other-wise, it will be difficult to keepthings watered. Ron and Helen Beckwith aregoing to have some watering choresthis year. They planted a bunch oftrees last weekend. Cody Briggswas in the community, removingtrees from tree rows in a field northof Beckwith's house, so they trans-planted some of the trees to serveas a windbreak around the house.I hope they are successful! First of all, congratulations toErin (Briggs) and Aaron Horn onthe birth of their new baby daugh-ter, Anika Elise. She was bornMarch 28 and is the first child ofthe Horn's. Proud grandparentsare Cole Briggs and Connie Moore. Duane and Lola Roseth's son,Rhett, came to the ranch Thursdayevening for the Easter holiday.Easter Sunday, they went tochurch at Deep Creek, followed byEaster dinner at Dick and Gene

Hudson's. Mary Neuhauser came to thecountry Thursday night as she hadGood Friday off from work. Kevinsaid they celebrated Good Fridayby cleaning up dead trees fromtheir yard.

She stopped andpicked up Mexican food, which Lilloves, and shared supper with Liland one of Lil's other caregivers –a very capable young womannamed Kylie. Lil enjoyed the sup-per and visiting, and Mary re-turned to the ranch later in theevening. Lee Briggs has been busyplanting. You have to have faith tobe a farmer – if it doesn't rain, the

seeds won't grow, but if it does rainand you haven't planted, you willbe out of luck also! We just have totrust in God and hope for the best.Granddaughter Cattibrie Rigglecame to the ranch Saturday after-noon, and Keva, Seth and ZaneJoens arrived Saturday night.They all attended sunrise servicesat Deep Creek Church Sunday.There was a nice crowd, and theyall enjoyed a delicious breakfastfollowing the church service.

When theygot Seth rounded up for the photoshoot, they were in the middle ofsome snow flurries. Keva and Maryare both excellent photographers,and I'm sure they got some greatphotos. Mary said there was onelesson learned – don't sit on thebare brown ground that can cam-ouflage cactus. Good point! (That'sa pun.) Mary said she was not theone who learned that lesson onSunday.

I found this suggestion that in-terested me – the quickest way todry herbs is to lay a sheet of news-paper on the seat of your car,arrange the herbs in a single layer,then roll up the windows and closethe doors. The herbs will dryquickly and your car will smellgreat. – I don’t doubt they will dryquickly most of the year up here,but not sure about the aroma.

Here’s a fun experience foryounger children. Items neededare a clear glass jar or glass, cottonball, a bean seed and water.

Fill the jar with the cotton balls.Place one or two bean seeds be-tween the balls and the jar side soit can be seen. Do not put a lid onthe jar. Wet the cotton balls sothey are moist but not soakingwet. Within a few days the beanshould begin to sprout. With theseed being up against the jar sidechildren can view the seed sprout-ing and growing.

If you saw the movie “Lincoln,”or even if you didn’t, I highly rec-ommend reading the book it wasbased on – “Team of Rivals – ThePolitical Genius of Abraham Lin-coln” by Doris Kearns Goodwin. Itis a thick book, but it goes into alot of detail about Lincoln and hispolitical cabinet and why he chose

them. It covers everything, all theway through the assignation. TheHaakon County Public Librarydoes have this book, as well as anaudio version.

A book I just recently found outabout is “Behind the Scenes.” It isa memoir by Elizabeth Keckley, aformer slave who became themodiste at the White House forFirst Lady Mary Lincoln. Book de-scriptions note that it mostly fo-cuses on the years Keckley waswith the Lincolns.

,.

I’d also recommend “The Spell ofthe Yukon.” It is a book of poetryby Robert W. Service and thepoems feature the Yukon goldrush. My favorite is “The Crema-tion of Sam McGee.” I know itsounds awful, but there is a twistto the poem that anyone who haslived through a cold winter can re-late to. The book is still in print orthe poem can be found online andon YouTube recited by JohnnyCash and others. Teenagers evenliked this book of poems.

April has arrived and with it thepayment of your real estate taxesby the end of the month and by the15th your income tax and that is noApril Fool’s joke either. As the grass is greening up, ourbackyard has been full of deer graz-ing various times of the day, therobins can be spotted enjoying thesunshine and green grass too. Sospring is in the air. Monday, Bill and I went on amission to find out why I had anache in my face/throat/jaw. Thefirst stop was Philip and Dr. RonMann sent us on to Rapid to see anendiodontics specialist. Do I grindmy teeth? You bet, that was deter-mined about 40 years ago, but oneof those handy-dandy athleticmouth guards handles that after Iwore out the first one I had. No realsolution, but antibiotics was recom-mended. Went in the wrong officeto begin with in Rapid and who wasthere but Dr. Dave Coolie who usedto hunt at our place and theMilesville area. He took a few min-utes away from his patient to showme his latest photos of his huntingsuccess in Russia. Another day, wewill visit more.

Philip High School Fine ArtsAdmission:

Adults: $5.00 • Students grades 1-12: $3.00

by Del Bartels Former Philip High School bas-ketball player Kelly Pfeifer is livinghis dream. He is a Division 1 col-lege basketball referee. Tuesday, April 2, Pfeifer was oneof three professional referees work-ing the CollegeInsider.com postsea-son tournament championship bas-ketball game between Eastern Car-olina University and Weber State,played in Ogden, Utah, and tele-vised on CBS Sports Network. “I first got interested in reffingwatching my brother-in-law, DavidBurnett, work the 1997 Class ABoys Basketball Tournament inRapid City. He reffed and I wentalong. I was still in high school, butthat’s when I was truly introducedto reffing,” said Pfeifer. “I gotstarted reffing helping out withteam camps in the summers toearn some extra money while I wasin college. A local high school bas-ketball coach named Bill Mar-quardt needed help with his teamcamps and that’s how I started reff-ing. I have helped ref at these teamcamps every summer since then.” As a 1998 PHS graduate and all-conference basketball player,Pfeifer played college ball atDakota Wesleyan, Mitchell, forfour years. This was while he wasearning double bachelor degrees inbusiness finance and elementaryeducation. “There’s thousands of guys whowant to play college ball; there’svery few who get to,” said Burnett.“The aspirations he has are big andyou have to have those. You haveto have a lot ‘want to.’ ” “Then, when I was graduatingcollege, my college basketballcoach, Doug Martin, told ColinKapitan that I would make a goodreferee,” said Pfeifer. “Colin was alongtime referee and assigner forhigh school and college basketballgames. If not for Colin, I would not

be where I am today.” “I have been working NCAA Di-vision 1 college basketball for threeyears now and it’s going very well,”stated Pfeifer. “The Division 1Leagues I currently work in areSummit, Southland, MAC, Big Skyand Big 10. I want to keep movingup and working more games inthese leagues. Next season I hopeto maybe add another league, whilegrowing the schedule and workingmore post season assignments. Youmove up by getting plays right andtaking care of business.” “The pressure, the noise, you’retalking about a big-time program,”said Burnett. “The thing aboutKelly, whatever he does, he wantsto do well and he works hard to doit.” Burnett added, “The impor-tance of the game is magnified incollege basketball as opposed tohigh school.” Not only can thecrowds top 15,000, Burnett ex-plained, but that with a number oflosses in high school the coach willstill be a teacher, but in college balla number of losses will cost thecoach his job.

“You need tohave thick skinand be able totake criticism,” said Pfeifer aboutbeing a Division 1 referee. “If youdon’t like pressure of being yelledat, reffing is probably not for you.Learn to communicate withcoaches, players and administra-tors and this will be much easier.” Pfeifer’s occupation is a directorof banking for Vantage Point Solu-tions, Mitchell. The job gives himthe flexibility to work in multipleleagues this season, and doing so in16 different states. He has been asfar west as California and as fareast as New York and then every-where in between. “My wife, Ashley, is very sup-portive of me reffing. I think all thetravel and the airplanes makes herand Mom nervous at times, espe-cially when there is bad weather,”said Pfeifer. He has reffed everyweekend from the first week in No-vember until this past weekend. Hereffed 78 college games total thisseason, with 40 of them beingNCAA Division 1 games.

In “27 Goldfish,” the false rumor that one member of a“Hamlet” acting troupe, played by Keegan Burnett, is notnice to his girlfriend, is cause for a firmer neck measurementby costumer Kelsie Kroetch. Photos by Del Bartels

Too nice for his own good, the character played by Sam Stan-gle is more than just brow-beaten by his wife, played by JanePoss. A confidence-building moustache can change that.

Disjointed, pushed for rehearsal time, rumor-torn and so avant garde that they are downright weird, the acting troupe stillcomes together to pass along and hide behind their backs the bagged “37 Goldfish” from the power mad PETA inspector.

Jeff O’Connell has been givenlots of Scottie support as he travelsto different places for his collegetrack meets. Other Philip gradu-ates come out and support him. Hetraveled to Minneapolis, Minn., inJanuary for the Jack Johnson Invi-tational in Minneapolis, Minn., andJordan Smith (son of Ray andDonna) came out to support him. Whenever University of SouthDakota hosts a meet at the Dako-taDome, Tara Ravellette (daughterof Don and Tami) is a loyal fanshowing up to cheer O’Connell on. According to his mother, Teresa,

even though some of his followingfans did not graduate with him,they are still very supportive be-cause they are proud to be Scotties.Jeff wants to keep the Scottie Pridegoing. Taylor and Tara graduatedin 2009, Jordan Smith graduatedin 2008. Jordan (Peterson) Smithattended school in Philip. O’Connell’s high school trackcoach, Tom Parquet, also traveledto Vermillion one weekend to sur-prise O’Connell and support him atone of his meets. Friendships andthe Scottie pride continues on evenafter high school graduation.

Research indicates that the abil-ity of colostrum to provide passiveimmunity to the calf is often lim-ited by low concentration ofcolostral immunoglobulins, insuffi-cient methods of feeding colostrum,and limited absorption of im-munoglobulins in the calf, saidJanna Kincheloe, SDSU Extensionresearch associate. “Good quality colostrum shouldcontain more than 50 grams perliter of IgG, which is the primaryimmunoglobulin in colostrum,”Kincheloe said. “Quality may be in-adequate if dams are young, nutri-tionally stressed, have a poor im-mune status, or produce large vol-umes of lower quality milk." Colostrum-deprived calves are50 to 75 times more likely to diewithin the first three weeks of life,most of them in the first week.Kincheloe said producers can con-firm the level of IgG found incolostrum by testing it for antibodycontent. She added that it is impor-tant to know the quality ofcolostrum being produced by thecow to be able to determine whichtype of product – supplement or re-placer – is recommended for agiven situation. Although commercially availablecolostrum supplements or replac-ers can play an important role incalf health. Kincheloe said for bestresults, producers need to under-stand the differences in these prod-ucts based on their formulationsand how to use them for optimumresults. “Failure of passive transfer(FPT) can be determined by a testevaluating plasma IgG concentra-tion within 24 to 48 hours afterbirth,” Kincheloe said. She explained that the criticallevel used to indicate FPT in calvesis less than 10 grams per liter.Products are classified by theirability to raise plasma IgG concen-trations. Colostrum supplementsdo not raise the plasma concentra-tion above the species standard of10 grams per liter, while replace-ment products do. The USDA Center for VeterinaryBiologics regulates colostrum prod-ucts containing IgG. In general,products that contain less than 100grams IgG/dose are categorized ascolostrum supplements, and aredesigned to be used when feedinglow or medium quality colostrum. Kincheloe said replacer productscan be used to completely replacecolostrum, as they contain greaterthan 100 grams IgG/dose and alsosupply additional nutrients re-

quired by the calf (carbohydrates,protein, fat, vitamins and miner-als). Research results indicate thatcalves fed replacer products per-form similarly to those fed mater-nal colostrum in terms of IgG lev-els, health, and growth rates. “However, the quantity of IgGprovided by each product does notaccurately predict how much is ac-tually available to the calf,” Kinch-eloe said. Kincheloe explained that theamount of IgG that can be meas-ured in the plasma 24 hours afterbirth is known as the apparent ef-ficiency of absorption (AEA). Research data suggests that ab-sorption efficiencies typically rangefrom 20 to 35 percent in maternalcolostrum and many supplements.Most veterinarians recommendthat calves receive 100 grams ofIgG within the first 24 hours ofbirth; however, efficiency of absorp-tion must be considered when de-termining type and amount of sup-plement to be provided. Consider-ing average AEAs of most products,the actual amount of IgG consumedshould be between 103 and 180grams in order to reach the criticalplasma level of 10 grams per liter. “Factors that can affect AEAmay include source of IgG, methodof processing, amount and type ofprotein, and presence of fat andlactose. Some research has shownthat the addition of some colostrumsupplements may actually reduce

IgG absorption from naturalcolostrum," Kincheloe said. In general, Kincheloe said thethree sources of IgG in colostrumproducts are derived by lacteal se-cretions, like milk, whey, orcolostrum; bovine serum extractsor chicken eggs. “Feeding a greater amount of aproduct containing low concentra-tions of IgG can actually result indecreases in absorption efficiency,so it is best just to feed a higherquality product initially,” Kinche-loe said. “Be sure to carefully read andfollow the manufacturer's instruc-tions since products may vary inhow they are mixed and the num-ber of recommended feedings,”Kincheloe said.

family here, guiding folks througha stressful time in a very profes-sional way. Donnie and Deloris Poss visitedGeorge and Sandee Gittings Thurs-day evening. Thursday, Tony Harty picked upmail for the Hairs and himself, hadcoffee out, attended church andhad supper out. Don and Vi Moody got a couple oftheir vehicles serviced and checkedout a few vacation destinationswhile in Rapid as well as spendinga little more time on Facebook asVi said they decided to close theirfamily website they had sharedsince 2001. It seems that Facebookis more popular and "no fee" forthat service, so everyone is postingtheir activities on that and playinginteractive games, etc. They en-joyed a nice drive Easter Sundayafternoon meeting friends at a mu-tual place in Deadwood for a nicevisit and a bountiful Easter buffet.They enjoyed visiting with NancyGaylord from Branford, Conn.,while returning back to their homein Rapid Valley Sunday night.(Aren’t cell phones nice?) “Beef Daily” had an interestingarticle this past week concerningthe high price of land. “Land - Godisn’t making any more of it. And,with other investment opportuni-ties lacking, farmers, ranchers, andplenty of people outside of agricul-ture, continue to eagerly invest inthis precious asset. The result hasbeen extremely high and growingland prices. Could we be headed fora crash?” Many fear a return of the 1980scrash, but, according to the SiouxFalls Argus Leader, farmers arebetter prepared to weather a finan-cial crash this time around. Les and Muree Struble surprisedBill and me with the cutest singingbunny for Easter Thursday morn-ing. Les made the delivery and vis-ited a little bit. He’d injured hishand so was not going to be able tobowl and Bill thinks he can fill infor two weeks on Tuesday. Billcame home from the card roomwith a gift from Don and VirginiaFerguson. Fergusons gifted theCivil Air Patrol a “hood” used forpracticing instrument flight rules,or IFR, and also a headset. Theywill be put to good use and thank-ful to get them. I used “foggles”when practicing for IFR with an in-structor, so the hood is a new con-

cept for me. Vi Moody received word thatLinda (Long) Kramer was goingthrough some health issues and getwell wishes are sent her way andprayers for a speedy recovery dur-ing her recent illness. Our prayersare with Linda and her family. Friday afternoon, Tony Hartyvisited his niece, Kathy Brown.He also called to check in on his sis-ter, Theresa Hockenbary, in Valen-tine, Neb., who is battling cancer. Thursday and Friday with tem-peratures hovering about 70˚ in theSturgis area, Ralph and CathyFiedler found excuses to be outsidedoing yard work and cleaned theirvehicles. Bill and I had good intentions offlying the coup the first of theweek, but I sort of threw a monkeywrench in that, so we threw thingsin the motorhome for a two-day getaway. Friday, we headed towardthe Missouri River. It was toowindy to fish and the campgroundat the dam is closed until May, sowe did find a place to park then Billgot a sore throat, which sent usscurrying for home Saturday morn-ing. We need to practice this stay-ing away more than a day at atime! Bill did feel good enough to goto cards in Philip in the afternoon. Sunday, Ralph and CathyFiedler went to the Eric Hansonhome for Easter supper. The DonKlumb family joined in. After thegrandkids opened Easter gifts, theyall enjoyed strawberry cake beforegoing home. Jessica Gittings and Daniel haddinner with George and SandeeGittings Easter Sunday. KurtGustafson, Lindstrom, Minn., ar-rived at the Gittings home Sundayevening. He will be working on therailroad in Philip for a while. Easter Sunday, Tony Harty vis-ited with L.D. and Shirley Hair andtook them their mail while theywere in Kadoka. They returned totheir camper at Oelrichs in the af-ternoon. He went out for dinner. Bill and I rested most of EasterSunday. Jeanette Burnette visitedat our place after she enjoyedEaster dinner at the Chris Riggin’shome, which is right across fromour house. Thanks for the visit,Jeanette. “Have you given someone yoursmile? Have you shared your laugh-ter? How about a hug?” – DonnaWatson

Frank Halliganwent to Pierre on Easter and tookhis father, Ken, out for Easter din-ner. Helen Beckwith traveled to Au-rora, Palm Sunday to join her sib-lings for the day. Helen's father re-cently passed away, so the groupalso took care of some thank younotes and other business. On theway back home, Helen stopped inHuron and picked up their daugh-ter, Lori, and brought her home forthe Easter holiday. Ron andHelen's daughters, Rose andCheryl, and their families alsospent part of the weekend withthem. Some of them helped withthe tree planting project Friday.Marc and Cheryl and family re-turned to their home in Ft. PierreSaturday evening.

Sunday, they at-tended sunrise services at DeepCreek Church, followed by break-fast. In the afternoon, Carmen,Kelly and Morgan went to Midlandto join a Foshiem family Eastergathering. Bill and Polly Bruce were inPierre last Tuesday for their an-nual checkups – sounds like theygot good results. Thursday, theirdaughter, Linda, and husband Bob

Lutter and children, Jessie andJoey, arrived from their home inAshton for a visit. Linda helpedPolly tie a quilt while she washome – it is nice to have help forthat job. Linda and family returnedhome Saturday. Saturday evening,Andy Bruce and children, Jacksonand Allison, came to the ranch forEaster. Saturday evening, Bill andPolly Bruce attended church inEagle Butte, and they visited withtheir daughter, Marcia Simon, be-fore returning to the ranch. Easterdinner guests were Andy Bruceand children and Vince and KatieBruce. Ruth Neuhauser thoroughly en-joyed the Easter dinner providedby Kevin and Mary, and she en-joyed the opportunity to visit withMary's parents, the Schlecters.Ruth said it snowed lightly most ofthe day in Highmore, but it wasn'theavy snow. Marge Briggs enjoyed Easterwith her family in Spearfish. Shesaid they encountered some snowshowers on the way home. Margesaid she is being careful to measureevery bit of moisture for theweather data – every drop helps! I was in Pierre last Thursday torun errands and gather up sup-plies. I also had the opportunity tohave lunch with my sister-in-law,Janice Neuhauser, which was atreat! Easter at our place wasquiet – Chauncey Jorgensen andhis friend, Misty Gunderson, joinedus for Easter dinner. The rest ofthe day was spent checking cattle. Today, I am grateful to live in acountry where we are free to wor-ship as we please. As I read backover this column, it was evidenthow big of a role faith plays in ourlives. Thank goodness for the folkswho have fought (and continue tofight) for our freedoms, one ofwhich is religious freedom. This week, I hope all of you willhave the opportunity to enjoy themany signs of spring! It is so uplift-ing to see the new blades of grassand the baby calves and all theother "springy" things! And pleasecontinue to pray for moisture. Iheard there were some prairie firessouth of Kadoka, so please be care-ful. Now, go out and make it agreat week!

by RepresentativeKristi Noem

With opening day of baseballseason in our sights, spring has fi-nally arrived. Families acrossSouth Dakota are preparing foroutdoor track meets and open-water fishing, but before we can getoutside and enjoy the long-awaitedwarmer temperatures, there’s an-other annual “holiday” we need toget past first – tax day. We’re only a couple weeks awayfrom the April 15 deadline to filetaxes for 2012. According to thenon-partisan Tax Foundation, indi-viduals and businesses spendabout 6.1 billion hours each yeardoing their taxes and complyingwith complicated tax laws. Now, some in Washington, D.C.are proposing that we raise taxeseven more on hard-working Amer-icans to help manage our deficit. Infact, the budget that was finallypassed by the Senate proposes al-most $1 trillion in additional taxes.I believe that we don’t have deficitsbecause Americans are taxed toolittle; we have deficits becauseWashington spends too much. In contrast, the budget that waspassed by the House of Represen-tatives will balance the federalbudget in 10 years and reduces thedeficit by $4.6 trillion. This budgetis a crucial step to putting our na-tion back on a sustainable fiscalpath. Our budget brings spendingdown to a reasonable level so thatwe do not have to raise taxes onAmerican families and job creators.Not only does the House budgetlower tax rates for individuals,businesses and families throughpro-growth tax reform and closingloopholes, it also gives the green

light to the Keystone XL Pipelineproject and fully repeals Oba-macare. The Senate budget will neverbalance and that’s unacceptable tome. South Dakota families andbusinesses balance their budgetsevery year and we know that it’sunsustainable to spend more thanwe take in. It’s time for the federalgovernment to do the same. Whilethe House has passed a budgetevery year since I took office, thiswas the first time in four years thatthe Senate considered and passeda budget. I applaud the Senate fordoing its job, but raising taxes andcontinued deficit spending are non-starters for me. While President Obama was ableto complete his NCAA bracket intime, he once again failed to meethis own budget deadline. A budgetserves as a blueprint for our na-tion’s priorities and I’m disap-pointed that the president fails totake this seriously. I am optimistic that House andSenate leaders will work out thedifferences between the two budg-ets so that we can pass a budgetthat’s acceptable to both chambers.During these negotiations, I’d liketo hear from you and to get yourthoughts about the federal budgetprocess.

Weather has been up and down,chilly some days with wind andother days warmer and sunshine.Not much for moisture, still aw-fully dry in this area and don’t seeanything growing unless in a drawwhere a few drifts melted. The cat-tle seek them out and gobble upwhat they can find as soon as it ap-pears. Did not find many at home fornews this week some I called wereout checking for new calves andbusy with them as seems it’s whateveryone in this area are busy withthese days. Marvin and Vicki keep busy withnew baby calves arriving every daythey catch each one ear tag andvaccinate each one when they are aday or so old. They are always busyevery day feeding and doing thistill noon or later on some days. Jean Radway was a busy ladyover Easter. She took on Easter forthe family get-together. To have abig enough place she heated hergarage and used that. She enter-tained 20 or more. A few of her

friends, Tom and Marie Radway,Alex Radway and family, and Sethand Mindy Green and family. Cain Radway and family, andMarcy Morrison and family went totheir in-laws for the day. Tom saidthat they had corn beef and cab-bage at Jean’s plus other greatdishes. They all enjoyed a great daytogether visiting and playing cards. Eileen Fitzgerald enjoyed Easterat Dean and Janice Fitzgerald’sand enjoyed seeing Beth, who washome from Omaha, Neb. Janice’sdad, Bob Holcomb, who had dinnerat the nursing home with his wife,Wanda, Cindy and family, RapidCity, Rusty and Amanda Bear, andAbbie and her fiancé, Scott, RapidCity. David Fitzgerald accompaniedCassidy and family to Rapid City tothe Danni Carlson’s for Easter. Every family seems to managecelebrating the holidays with bothsides of their families and gettingto see each other by changing offand on holidays different years anddifferent holidays. So everyone gets

their day to be together and theyseem to all take turns serving themeals, although a lot of kids wantto just come home. But it is nice forparents to get to go visit their kidsalso. But most of the farm familiesare calving and are not able to begone, as Easter usually falls duringcalving season, so their kids have tocome home to be with them. Larry Lewison called me fromHurley, S.D., to tell me that Becky(Poss) Wiebelhause has now devel-oped cancer of the liver. She hashad many health problems thispast year. I am sure she and herhusband, Todd, would appreciateyour prayers. Larry also said thathis eyes are still bad and that he isunable to see very well, but hashopes the VA in Sioux Falls will beable to help him. Otherwise theyare doing well. Herb and Hazel Sieler wereEaster guests at Dennis and Kay,Mike and Todd Sieler’s for Easter.They also visited with all their kidsby phone Easter Day. Dan Oldenberg enjoyed Easter atBob and Kathy Hamanns at Wall,as did Henry and Nellie Chapell.Esther was not able to go as shehad to work. Esther and Dan en-joyed supper at Quinn this week for

a belated 60th birthday for Dan.Henry and Nellie Chapell, and Boband Kathy Hamann were alsothere. They all enjoyed a good time. Keith and Debbie Smith werebusy as usual over Easter. CassidyAyotte and the girls were homeThursday through Monday, April1. Ella, Lincoln’s fiancée, spentEaster weekend with them. Colbywas also home from college Thurs-day. Colby and Deb went with Jessto watch Logan and Myer find eggsat the Kiddie Park in Philip.Thursday night, they attended theliving supper at the UnitedChurch. Friday night, Colby andCassidy colored eggs for Easter.Saturday night, they, plus Tucker,Jess and boys all went to supper atDon and Donna Olivier’s wherethey joined several of Debbie’s sib-lings for the evening. Then EasterSunday, Keith and Deb had herfolks, sister Sonja and family, andRich Smith for the day. Deb keptLogan Friday as Jess took Myer upfor his two-month checkup inRapid City. I haven’t gotten to seehim yet, as I had a cold and didn’twant to spread it around. Donna Newman, Glenn and Di-anne Parsons and Shayla and boyswent to A.J. and Chelsee Taylor’sfor Easter. They also celebrated

Eliza’s first birthday while there.So it was a busy weekend for every-one. At Marvin and Vicki Eide’s forEaster were Bart Ramsey and hismother, Rita Ramsey, Trevor andChrista Fitch and six boys, andMary Eide. Marcy Ramsey was notable to be there as she and her dadand brother, Rusty, are inRochester, Minn., with her mother,Vi, who is undergoing heart sur-gery. Our sympathy goes out to thefamily of Esther Long this week.Esther was a long-time resident ofPhilip and will be missed by familyand friends. I hope everyone had a happyEaster enjoying family and remem-bering what Easter is all about. Thereason we celebrate is that no onecan give us the gift we received onthat day long ago, but He who gaveit. To everything there is a season,and a time for every purpose underHeaven: a time to be born, a time todie, a time to plant, a time to pluckup that which is planted. … Eccle-siastes 3:1-2 No winter lasts forever, no springskips its turn. April is a Promisethat May is bound to keep. – HalBorland
