Grapplers capture State B Wrestling Tournament runner-up spot

The Badlands Brawlers took the State B Wrestling Tournament by storm and brought back the runner-up trophy. The team took the second place spot early duringthe first day of action and never looked back, but they might have been sweating it a little there at the end. The second place finish wasn’t secured until the fourthto last match when a Canton wrestler, who was expected to win, failed to do so. Just four points separated the second through fourth place teams.

by Del Bartels The annual Cenex HarvestStates Midwest Cooperatives busi-ness supper was held at the Amer-ican Legion Hall in Philip,Thursday, February 21. Over 100 attendees listened tobusiness reports, witnessed a re-gional sales award presentation toa local employee, were eligible forvarious door prizes and partici-pated in the supper prepared andserved by the United ChurchWomen. Of the reports of the companyprofits and expansion, the local siteof Philip showed a net income forfiscal year 2012 of $1,604,390. TheKadoka site showed a net profit of$286,379. “Both Philip and Kadokahad outstanding years,” announcedCHS General Manager Milt Hand-cock. “All in all, that’s economicstimulus that hits home.” Cash re-turns to patrons were $48.1 millionin the state of South Dakota. TheCHS fiscal year ends on August 31. Explaining some of the com-pany’s overall profit, CHS boardmember Randy Hague said, “Webuy our oil at a cheaper price.” Herelated that most of CHS oil comesfrom Canada, rather from othermore distant and politically diver-gent sources. Hague reported thatthe CHS is still going ahead withconstruction plans for a huge nitro-gen fertilizer plant in NorthDakota. It will be the biggest suchproject in CHS and North Ameri-can history. “We think it’s essential

to our future,” said Hague. The Midwest Cooperative finan-cial summary for 2012 was up ongrain margins, merchandise mar-gins, service and other income mar-gins, merchandise sales andpatronage refund. It was down ongrain bushels/units volume, and upon total expenses. The total net in-come was $6,478,115, down almost$1,158,500 from 2011. Top sales performer for the en-tire CHS Midwest Region wasPhilip’s Darwin Hellekson. TheMidwest Region consists of nine de-fined business units totaling 71 lo-cations within a four-state area;southwest Minnesota, northeastNebraska, southwest NorthDakota and all of South Dakota.The Midwest Region handles alarge variety of product, includingbut not limited to energy, grain,feed, agronomy. Ed Mallett, vicepresident of the Midwest Region,presented the certificate to Hellek-son, who has been with the PhilipMidwest Cooperative for nineyears.” Jay Baxter, Philip and Kadokasite manager, was out of state forongoing training during the annualmeeting. He later said, “What an-other great year for both MidwestCooperatives and our parent com-pany, CHS Inc. As I’m sure wasstated at the annual meeting, thissuccess is attributed to both pa-trons and employees of our cooper-ative system. Thanks to all foranother great year.”

by Del Bartels Through costuming, make-upand a determined goal to soundand act differently than their reallife personalities, the Hayes Play-ers should pleasantly surprise andhumorously entertain audiencesduring their presentation of the sit-uational comedy “Bay at theMoon.” This 60th annual Hayes play willbe performed Friday and Saturday,March 8-9, at 7:00 p.m. and Sun-day, March 10, at 2:00 p.m. MT inthe Hayes Community Hall. The new home health assistantagrees to extend a one-time visitinto a few weeks. “Okay. I’ll look upeverything I can on that disorder.”He’s not talking about theAlzheimers that the father has, butthe craziness displayed by the oldman’s two daughters. The home health assistant,played by Levi Neuharth (ninthHayes play), relates that a fullmoon is coming up and, while sup-posedly referring to nursing homeresidents, says, “Every full moonthose people would come up withthe weirdest notions.” Weird no-tions abound in this comical oppo-site of an “optimal therapeuticenvironment.” He is told by hisboss, “If something happens to Dadcall 911, because you’ll need an am-bulance when I’m done with you.” The father, who may be escapingto Alzheimers, is played by VinceBruce (12th Hayes play). His char-acter built his house, but continu-ally gets lost in it. He can’t unlockthe door, yet can lock his caregiverout. He doesn’t drive his brokendown old car, though the battery iskept charged so he can listen to theradio during his “trips.” He is per-snickety, cantankerous, sometimes

wise and loveable. The reclusive, bitter, whiskeyswigging daughter is played byCrystal Neuharth. A few of her no-table lines are, “It’s my toilet! I willfix it! Thank you!” “These are notcrafts, they are ceramics; you makeit sound less than it is!” And of oneher fiasco dates, “I let him talk allhe wanted, when his mouth wasn’tmoving the rest of him was.” The self imposing, next door sis-ter is played by Mindy Kirkpatrick(seventh Hayes play). She arrangeschance dates for her sister, evenusing the weekly bingo night as aset up. She exclaims of one pushyman, “You can’t blame a guy fortrying.” To which the reply is, “No,but you can punch him if you wantto.” Since treehouse days, she hasthrown out her sister’s stuff asjunk. She phones so often that the phone is often unplugged. She even

by Del Bartels The Philip Area AARP/RetiredTeachers Association and the theHaakon County Public Librarycombined meetings Monday, Feb-ruary 25, in the Bad River SeniorCitizen’s Center. After AARP/RTAbusiness, the library held its sec-ond public input concerning thehistory and locations of countryschools within Haakon County. Jerry Neville was honored as the2012 Volunteer of the Year. “Butthere’s a lot of volunteers in thistown,” said Neville. “And that’swhat makes this place so nice tolive in.” Special guests were Ron andMarrietta Catlin, Pierre. She is the

liason from the RTA state board.Members of the board visit all theunits in South Dakota at least onceevery two years. She recalled herlast visit to Philip and the repre-sentation that Philip had at one ofthe last state RTA conventions.The Philip AARP and RTA com-bined chapter has 55 members, animpressive number for the popula-tion of the area, according toCatlin. The annual fifth grade grandpar-ent essays are currently being writ-ten, under the tutelage of Philipschool instructor Marie Slovek. Acooperation between theAARP/RTA and the Masonic Ceme-tery board will get together in

March to discuss a posible futurebuilding or roofed area for thecemetery plot location map andother information. Free tax aide isbeing offered every Tuesday byIRS-trained Robert McDaniel. Haakon County Public Librarydirector Annie Brunskill began byreinterating that the countryschools project began as a book clubinterest in the compilation book“One-Room Country School: SouthDakota Stories.” The book was ed-ited by Norma C. Wilson andCharles L. Woodard, and publishedby the South Dakota HumanitiesCouncil. The project grew fromthere to try to map all the HaakonCounty country schools. Using sev-

eral lists, Brunskill believes thatthere were 75 country schools inthe county during the last 100years. She has determined the lo-cation of 30-40 on the map. Somedistricts have consolidated, withsome of the older names fallingfrom the records. Some buildingswere moved to different locations,with some of them being renamed.Records, diaries, school books andother memorabilia have beenloaned or donated for the project. Afew items were rescued from theold museum in Philip before itsdemolition. A large percentage of attendeesare retired teachers. Stories weretold of being students in country

schools, of teaching in countryschools, of blizzards and other sub-jects. Kay Ainslie had to take a fivedollar cut in pay because she wastransferred to a country schoolcloser to Philip. Though some coun-try schools taught some years ofhigh school, country students hadto board in Philip to attend its highschool. The library is still requesting toborrow and copy any written mate-rials and old photographs to fill outstories of Haakon County countryschools. The next AARP/RTA meetingwill be at 6:00 p.m., Monday,March 25, in the Bad River SeniorCitizen’s Center.

Lookin’ Around by Syd Iwan

All my friends and relativesseem to be writing books. I hope itisn’t contagious or I might find my-self writing one too. That soundslike a lot of work since any act ofcreation, whether a book, painting,or song, takes some doing. Thesethings don’t make themselves, andthe whole process puts you throughperiods of self-doubt, worry, andmental anxiety. It’s a good feelingwhen you finally get somethingproduced, look at it, and decide itisn’t half bad, but getting to thatpoint puts you through the mill. Friend Ruth, for instance, re-cently wrote a book about her firstfew years as a missionary in HongKong. While she was writing it, I’dget occasional E-mails expressingher concerns about proof readingor that she wasn’t adequately get-ting across what she wanted tosay. Her creation, “Foreign DevilGirl in Hong Kong” by Ruth Epp,is however now available throughAmazon and is a good read. It hasinsight, pathos, and humor. Shealso gives one a good idea of howvery difficult it is to learn the Can-tonese Chinese dialect. Since Ihave no talent whatsoever atlearning foreign languages, Can-tonese is probably something Ishouldn’t even attempt. It’s fun,though, to read about someoneelse’s struggle in doing so. Ruthlived and worked in Hong Kongfrom 1959 until 2005 so there aremany more years to write about ifshe gets up the nerve and ambitionto pull it off. I should probably mention that,before Ruth moved to the otherside of the world, she and herfriend, Darlene, came with Rev.Knickle in the summers andtaught us Bible School for a weekat a local country schoolhouse.They lived with us during thoseweeks so we got to know thempretty well, and we’ve kept intouch ever since. Then we come to cousin Verna(Heaton) Benham who recentlypublished her book, “Champagnein a Paper Cup.” It is also availablethrough Amazon and recounts hertime as a Foreign Service employeein such places as Taiwan andSouth America. In the latter, shemet and married a fellow who wasa foreign correspondent for The As-sociated Press and the U. S. News& World Report. All in all, she haslived an extremely interesting lifeand has done a good job tellingabout it. I seem to have no particu-lar desire to go to Taiwan or SouthAmerica, but it is enjoyable to visitthere through Verna’s eyes andpen. Local friend Joyce (Dolezal)Wheeler has also written a couple

of books, (available at Amazonagain.) They are novels, whichmeans she had to make them upinstead of just writing about thingsshe has done. Sure, you wouldprobably base your characters onpeople you have known, but youstill have to deal with characteri-zation, plot and such. It takes a lotof thinking. It is quite a lot easierto read Joyce’s books than to makeone up yourself. So, if you wanted to write a book,how many words would you haveto come up with? A standard-sizenovel, it seems, should probably bearound 80,000 words. That’s a lot.You might get by with 50,000, but80,000 would be better. If you wereLeo Tolstoy, you would have tocome up with over half-a-millionwords for such tomes as his, “Warand Peace.” That would take weeksto read much less write. As a col-lege kid assigned to read it, youmight be better off buying the“Cliff Notes,” which is a little pub-lication that allows you to know allabout a book without actuallyreading it. I like the comment byone of the characters on sonChance’s Veggie Tales video wherehe says he read War and Peace viaCliff Notes and found it “riveting.”He comments, “That’s three min-utes of my life I’ll never get back.”As we said, reading War and Peacein full might take quite a lot longerthan three minutes since it runs tosomething like 1,400 pages. CliffNotes might be the way to go inthis case. I did start writing a mysterynovel over 10 years ago and gotthrough the first two chapters be-fore bogging down. Action on thatproject has come to a standstill,but, who knows, maybe I’ll drag itback out some day and get goingagain. I have enough things to doat present without that, but onlywriting a thousand words a weekwould get a book written in a littleover a year. I currently write a lit-tle less than that, maybe 850,every week writing these things somaybe I could double my produc-tion. We’ll have to see. Since I’ve been writing weeklyarticles from 1986 to the present,I’ve probably already used up wellover a million words. That’s doublewhat Tolstoy needed for War andPeace, but my stuff, alas, isn’t ex-actly in book form. I’m happy to re-port that I can write much morequickly and easily now than I couldback in ’86, but it is still fairly hardwork. Like I said, I hope book-writ-ing isn’t contagious or I might con-tact that dreaded disease.Everyone else is catching it, butmaybe it will pass me by. Time willtell.

Perfection ... by Del Bartels

Even thinking about perfection is mind boggling. Optimists believe

that this is the best of all possible worlds, and pessimists fear that they

may be right. Instead of swearing, a sarcastic statement when things

go wrong is, “Just perfect!” A comment to something that is slightly or

humorously contradictory is, “Oh well, nothing’s perfect.” Have you

ever heard someone say, “My day is perfect! Now watch some jerk come

along and louse it up!”? We all think Heaven will be perfect; but one

man’s perfect bliss could be another man’s ‘other place.’ Only one per-

son was perfect, and recall what they did to Him.

Aristotle the philosopher believed that “perfect” was something com-

plete, where there was nothing to add or subtract. But, when you get

done washing your car, you know that a bird will fly over. Once you

reach perfection, where do you go from there? You say good night after

the perfect date, then why ask for a second? On that subject, I could

never be the perfect gentleman, because I would die of boredom. They

say that once a woman finds the perfect man, she marries him and im-

mediately sets out to change him. I feel pity for the teenage hunter who

bags a record-breaking trophy the first time out, because they will

strive their entire life to do better and will possibly fail.

Grammatically the present tense of “eat” is “ I eat,” while the perfect

tense is “I have eaten.” I love eating; I don’t want to have eaten, my

perfect tense would be “I am eating,” thus English teachers hate me.

Musically, perfect pitch is the ability to identify or re-create a given

note without the help of any other sound. Wouldn’t that be agonizing

for that person while attending most church services, birthday parties

and sing-alongs? If you stacked perfectly identical and perfectly

rounded kitchen glasses, you would never get them pulled apart again.

A perfect game in baseball (where no batter reaches even first base)

would be historically noteworthy, but the limited field action would

make me ask for my ticket money back. The second bullseye, if per-

fectly placed in the first hole in the target, couldn’t be proven.

They say that somewhere out there is a woman who is a perfect 10.

Wasn’t Don Juan’s secret that he thought all women were perfect? A

major book and subsequent movie was “The Perfect Storm” – not the

perfect I want to be in the middle of! The phrase “picture perfect” is

disappointing, because if it was a picture of food – you can’t eat it, if a

picture of a mountain – you can’t climb it ... you get the point. They say

that we all experience a perfect moment in time, maybe, but the clock

keeps ticking. Even the “perfect murder” strived for in novels and

movies, by definition, has to have someone be dead.

If I ever discover that perfection is possible, I would hide that fact

from the rest of the world for the world’s sake. Just let it be good

enough that the closest thing to perfect is me. Would the phrase “per-

fectly wrong” be a contradiction or an oxymoron?

Evaluating Your WinterWheat Stand

There has been considerable in-terest in the condition of the win-ter wheat crop in South Dakotaduring this winter of 2012-13.Much of the crop was planted intodry soil, and a substantial percent-age didn’t germinate before coldweather arrived, with even lessemerging. Winter wheat plantsthat sprout and do not establish acrown and two to three tillers willnot be as winter hardy as plantsthat did. However, it is not wellknown how much less winterhardy they are. With adequate moisture, wheatseeds germinate (and winterwheat plants break dormancy) attemperatures of 39 degrees F orhigher. With soil temperatures atthe 2” and 4” depth hovering at ornear 32 degrees F at most of theSouth Dakota Automatic WeatherData Network (AWDN) stations, itmay be a few weeks before produc-ers will be able to accurately as-sess winter wheat survival.Historically, soil temperatures atmost AWDN stations don’t reachtemperatures in the upper 30suntil mid to late March. If interested, producers can runthe “bag test”, explained on page40 of Chapter 4, “Winter WheatPlanting Guide” of “iGrow Wheat:Best Management Practices forWheat Production: http://igrow.org/up/resources/05-1001-04-2012.pdf to provide an early indi-cation of winter survival. As thechapter states, “If information isnot required immediately, the bestway to assess winterkill is to waituntil plant growth commences. Itis quite difficult to get a “fieldwide” picture of winter wheat sur-vival by running the “bag test” asyou are only evaluating a smallsample. Once you are able to accurately

assess winter survival, or whatkind of stand you have remainingin the spring, you will need to de-cide whether to leave the stand ordestroy it and plant another crop.There are three components ofyield; number of heads per unitarea, kernels per head, and kernelweight. The dominant componentin less than optimum stands isnumber of heads per unit area.The plant population needed to op-timize yields for most conditions inSouth Dakota is considered to beabout 14 to 15 plants/sq. ft. Lowerpopulations can be managed toproduce profitable yields if thestand is relatively uniform acrossthe field. Stands as low as fiveplants/sq. ft. can produce nearly 70percent of maximum yield, andsome areas of the field may havehigher densities, increasing the po-tential. Before destroying a winterwheat field, contact your crop in-surance agent. A field must be re-leased before pursuing othercropping options or crop insurancecoverage would be voided. Producers should not inter-seedspring wheat into winter wheat asthis would result in mixed wheatat harvest and result in marketingproblems and almost certain pricereduction. If producers determine thatthey have an adequate winterwheat stand to keep, but less thanideal, they should apply nitrogenearly to enhance tillering. Nitro-gen should be applied as soon asthe plants break dormancy, or assoon as the soil is not frozen. It isalso important to pay close atten-tion to weed management asweeds will be more competitive ina thin stand.

Extension Newsby Bob Fanning

Field Specialist, WinnerRegional Extension Center

Good judgment comes from expe-rience which mostly comes from badjudgment. Quite a few ranchers usedbad judgment one year in the early1990s. I don’t remember exactlywhich year it was, but it was thefirst time CRP ground was openedup for haying for drought relief. Be-cause the relief was moving at thespeed of government, it was not re-leased until late September. By thattime the quality of the hay was verylow. The protein content was worsethan straw. What I remember themost about that year was that thefollowing calving season. I did moreC-sections on down cows than I didon heifers. The poor quality hay didnot provide enough energy to sup-port the cow and large fetus. I’m seeing some disturbing signsthat this year may be similar. SomeCRP hay analysis have shown only1.5% protein (wheat straw is 4%);cows require 9% protein prior tocalving. Right now anything thatcan be run through a baler is beingcalled hay: cornstalks, weeds, cat-tails, etc... This year I saw a casewhere cows were being fed weedsand they lost two cows from rup-tured abomasums (the fourth cham-ber of a cow’s stomach). In anattempt to eat enough of the poorquality feed to meet their nutritionalrequirements the cows ate suchlarge quantities that their stomachliterally exploded causing instantdeath. I saw a second case of nutri-tionally challenged cows that wasdue to force feeding straw with mo-lasses. The quality of this feed wasso low that the cow’s omasum (thethird chamber of the stomach) wasimpacted causing it to swell to fourtimes its normal size. These cowsdied more slowly as their gut motil-ity ground to a halt and they stoppedeating. Symptoms in these two cases in-cluded a big belly (often misidenti-fied as bloat), going off feed,producing very little feces, kicking atthe belly, and then sudden death.There is little treatment once cowsget in this condition and the fatalityrate is high. In order to prevent more cases likethese we need to feed more protein.The protein source must be plantbased – NO UREA. Slow protein di-gestion must match the slow diges-tion of poorer carbohydrates. I saw athird case of a possibly low protein

diet just this weekend; after calvinga heifer did not have any milk andher bag was hard. This is called peri-parturient udder edema; low bloodprotein will cause blood vessels toleak fluid, particularly the largeblood vessels supplying the cow’sudder. It is simple to treat this witha shot of furosemide to pull the fluidout. What is disturbing to me aboutthese three cases is that they mayonly be the tip of the iceberg. Whenthis happened in the 90’s SDSU dida large study on the cause of weakcalf syndrome. The results showedthat the cause was low quality haywhich in turn leads to weak calvesand poor colostrum. So, I am trying to relay some ofmy experience to you so that you canskip the bad judgment part and gostraight to good judgment. You can-not starve a calf out of a cow. A weakcow will have a weak calf and thatcalf will take longer to get to its feetand have a weaker suckling re-sponse. The weak cow will have lesscolostrum and it will be of poorerquality, plus the calf will get less ofit. This will lead to more scours inthe spring as well as more summerand fall pneumonia. All of these dead cows I’ve openedup have had minimal body fat. Theyare just one blizzard away from awreck. Save yourself some experi-ence and make sure your cows aregetting enough protein.

Rural electric cooperatives andutilities in 12 states will receiveloan guarantees to improve gener-ation and transmission facilitiesand implement smart grid tech-nologies. “Providing reliable, affordableelectricity is essential to rural jobcreation,” said John Padalino, act-ing United States Department ofAgriculture rural utilities adminis-trator.Padalino. “Upgrading ruralinfrastructure sets the stage foreconomic development.” The announcement includes sup-port for more than $8 million insmart grid technologies, which helputilities make efficiency improve-ments to the electric grid and helpconsumers lower their electric bills

by reducing energy use in homesand businesses. In South Dakota, two utilitieswere selected for funding: •West Central Electric Coopera-tive, Inc. based in Murdo has plansto use $10.125 million loan to build46 miles of distribution line, 14miles of transmission line andmake other system improvements.The loan includes $314,487 insmart grid projects. •Northern Electric Cooperativebased in Bath has plans to use a$20.3 million loan guarantee tobuild 303 miles of distribution lineand make other system improve-ments. The loan includes $902,512in smart grid projects.

The planting season is startingto sneak up on us – now less thantwo months away for crops likespring wheat. If farmers have notselected or made 100 percent oftheir seed purchases, NathanMueller, South Dakota State Uni-versity Extension agronomist has afew tips for ways they can buy thevariety that returns the highestprofit per acre. “Most people justify a buying de-cision after they have alreadymade it, based on emotion. Unfor-tunately, seed purchases often donot escape this blight. Things thatinfluence our selection and pur-chase of varieties include brandreputation, loyalty and tradition,friends and family members, ad-vertising, and company representa-tives,” Mueller said. To increase farm level yields,Mueller encourages growers to uti-lize yield data in their variety se-lection process. Yield data can becollected from side-by-side compar-isons on the farm, company varietytrials, and third-party variety tri-als. “Reliability of this yield data isnot equal. I am not talking aboutwho (farmer, company, university)does the work, but the methodol-ogy,” he said. The three key methods growerscan use to increase their confidencein one variety’s performance overanother include blocking or split-ting the test plot into similar envi-ronments, randomization or ran-dom placement of varieties withinthe test plot, and replication or thesame variety appears in the test

plot several times. Another key term Mueller ex-plained is experimental error.“This is simply variation in yieldmeasured in the same variety thatwas tested independently severaltimes within a test plot. The sourceof this variation can be soil differ-ence in the test plot or even inabil-ity to reproduce the exact sameconditions with equipment opera-tions and measurements,” Muellersaid. Mueller explained why thesethree methods – blocking, random-ization, and replication – are im-portant when making yield datacomparisons among varieties. Theuse of blocking, replication andrandomization helps managers ofcrop testing performance trials likethe ones conducted at SDSU deter-mine whether varieties performdifferently at a location, the marginof difference between varieties, andconfidence that the differencesmeasured are attributed to the va-riety, not experimental error. To review examples that Muellerprovided in an article, visit http://iGrow.org/agronomy/corn. The differences between vari-eties for yield and other importantagronomic traits are posted annu-ally for all major crops in SouthDakota at www.iGrow.org. Theseresults help growers make in-formed purchasing decisions whenseed is ordered for their farm. Themagnitude of performance differ-ences between varieties or hybridscan be significant enough to createa $250 profit per acre swing.

*** Saturday, February 16, theRapid City Journal carried theobituary of former Somerset Courtresident, Fred (Bud) Ross, whodied Friday. My sympathy to fam-ily and friends. He was buried atBlack Hills National Cemetery. Wemiss you Fred. He was known toplay a little pool. And when LoisBard was here he was very kind toher. Saturday, February 16, theRapid Ctiy Journal also carried theobituary of Hans E. Hanson,Philip, who died February 15, atthe Philip Nursing Home. My sym-pathy to family and friends. February 16, at Somerset Court,we had Saturday exercises, com-plete with bonus Somerset bucks.Jane Bunch and her sister, Dot(Dorothy E. Busfield), joined theexercise group. Saturday, Susan gave us the ac-tivity of clay sculpting. She broughtready-made clay in many colorsand a few of us worked the clay foran hour or so. Meanwhile, there was a groupfor rummi-cube and later a table ofquiddler was played until suppertime. Friday, February 15, in theRapid City Journal, CathieDraine’s column mentions sprout-ing mung beans constantly as theyare delicious and easy to do. Iwould like to know how to sproutmung beans. I think I did knowlong ago. And I’m beginning to re-member that they were worth thebother. Maybe you better Googlethem and try to see how to getthem. My son, Wayne, took me toPhilip Sunday, February 17, to seemy house there. It is good to see my

treasures and to bring back a fewthings. I found a few of my journalsfrom years back, a family tree ofthe Virgil Hansen family that myson, Leslie, had painted on a roll-up window shade. My son, M.R.,went along and we met my son,David, in Wall. David had flown toWall to pick up a very small andcute dog to deliver to some peopleat the Houck ranch. Wayne, M.R.,David, and I all went out to lunch.We had a great roast beef dinnerand a tasty salsd bar. Waynetreated us all. Thanks for the din-ner and trip to Philip. Nice to seeyou, dear kids. Rapid City Journal photographerand correspondent Dick Kettlewellhad a good column in the Sunday,February 17, 2013, Journal. It hadphotos and a story about the greatscenery in Toadstool Park in thenorthwestern corner of the Ne-braska Panhandle. He loves thefeeling of solitude there. I am gladsuch wonderful country is so near. Happy birthday, great-grandson,Tiger, on February 18. Tigerturned five years old. Monday turned off colder. Thingswere strange here at SomersetCourt, because our dining tablesare set up in the activity garden, inthe front lobby, and in the secondfloor hospitality area. The servicewas great, but there is a great dealof stair climbing for the workers. I feel sick with no appetite, chillsand no pep. M.R. came for scrabble,but thought he better go away.Hope he did not catch my bug. Mylow feelings are partly from beingtired due to an unusual amount ofactivity. I visited at Maxine Kilmer’s thismorning before I thought I wassick, and asked her about a musicquestion, like do we hold this or hitit twice. My daughter, Carol, emailedthat she and Al had been to Puebloto the stage performance of Al’sdaughter, Jill, in the play “Titanic.”Jill and her family all were in theplay and acted with their usual pol-ished, professional manner. The second half of the movie,“Gone With The Wind,” was shownto day at Somerset Court. A biggercrowd than usual were enter-tained. The next movie on the Som-erset Court schedule is “The ColorPurple.” I am planning to request themovie, “Fargo,” at Somerset Court.

M.R. Hansen donated anothercopy of his book, “Mongolia, WhereEverything is Free Range,” to theSomerset Court reading shelves. Thank you to our volunteer, AmyVoles, who checks our word searchpuzzles and puts out new ones eachweek. We also receive liberal Som-erset bucks for working the puz-zles. I have enjoyed the new printer inthe Somerset Court computer lab. We have quite enjoyed havingour dining tables in the activitygarden and in the second floor hos-pitality area. This was due to hav-ing a new carpet installed in theSomerset Court dining room. AsAgnes Tastad pointed out, “We canget acquainted with others besidesour usual tablemates.” (We hadrandom seating instead of ourusual labeled places.) Vi Walker, Somerset Court resi-dent went out Tuesday afternoonwith her grandson, Josh Walker.He lives by Storybook Island herein Rapid City. I must report tht Anne Brinksaid the Somerset Court kitchenhad some wonderful aspargus/cheese soup Tuesday. Tuesday bingo winners at Som-erset Court were Mildred K., twice,Irene Arbach, Charlie, twice, Floy,Anne, and Mary Lou. For snackand chat, the treat was green mintice cream with tiny chocolate bits. Thanks to Wayne Hansen foryour Tuesday visit. After supper, the Boys Club boyscame with Phil Martin to SomersetCourt for bingo. Those boys who at-tended were Bryce Franks, AlexWaters, Andy Del Real, JeremiahShields, Jacob Leroy, Jeremy Cur-tis, Noah Grueschew, and BrettWalker. Brett served as bingonumber caller. Jeremy Curtishelped at our table. We had a goodtime and the Boys Club broughtbags of miniature chocolate barsfor prizes. Thank you for the treatsand for coming to play bingo withus. Sandy served cookies after wehad finished. Somerset Court resident, IdaLutz, has a “visiting angel.” She isMonica Gavotti, who is originallyfrom Milano, Italy. Her son is astudent in mechanical engineeringat South Dakota School of Mines.His name is Dakota UnbertoRichards. February 20, we had singing byWomen Who Care. Thanks, ladies.

And thanks also for the neck pil-lows that you gave us. Wednesday, February 20, we hadmusic by Doris Marie, her pianoand voice were reported as excel-lent. My pink and white amaryllisthat bloomed for Christmas has re-bloomed (four big blooms on a 22-inch stem). My niece, Wanda, and her hus-band, Ed, wrote and sent a page ofLouisiana stamps. Thank you. Ihave a hundred “Wall Drug CoffeeStill 5¢” cards to mail. Thanks,Mig. Thursday, February 21, a groupof Somerset Court residents wenton the Somerset Court bus to theOpen Bible Church out in the val-ley. They had lunch and entertain-ment. Thursday was bingo withwinners Marg S., Mary Lou, IreneMcKnight, Bert twice, MarilynButts, Floy and Ida Lutz. For thenew residents reception after bingowe had ice cream sundaes withchocolate and/or strawberry syrup.New residents there were Dot(Dorothy) Busfield, Ida Lutz, andBert (Albert) Schneider. New resi-dent not in attendance was Eve-lynn McHenry. We hope that youall like it here at Somerset Court.Just ask anybody for directions orquestions about the schedule. Sunday, February 24, we willhave the Coull Band at SomersetCourt at 3:00 p.m. We had themhere before and enjoyed them.They have some vocal and someguitar and banjo. My son, Hans P. Hansen, Col-orado Springs, painted a portrait ofAbraham Lincoln in honor of Pres-ident’s Day. I thought that itturned out very well. He paintedmy portrait too, and it showed a lotof tender care. Thank you, Hans. Iphoned and thanked Hans and hesaid that at their Spruce Housethey bring newspaper items tomeals and share the news. That isa good idea. Thursday, February 21, AddieRorvig had a visit from her niece,Shirley Ruhoff, and her husband,George, Hot Springs. Somerset Court resident, JoaneManlove, is planning to readNicholas Spark’s book, “TheChoice.” She said it is not a mys-

Identity Thief (R)

February is typically the time ofyear I start dreaming about plant-ing vegetables and flowers. I thinkit’s what helps get me through thetail-end of winter.

Plants have to be pretty hardyto survive my attentions. MyGrandma Ollila’s green thumbwas not passed on to me. I can stillpicture her beautiful flower beds.

I have learned a few things overthe years, one is with our hot sum-mers mulch is a must. I generallyuse grass clippings, but I wasreading the other day where news-papers are good, too. If you areworried about the inks, which aresoybased now, you can use endrolls which we have in stock at ournewspaper offices. The end rollshave no ink on them. Wetting thepaper first then putting a layer ofdirt on top seems to be the pre-ferred method. With the wind wehave, it will definitely need to becovered with dirt, or a thick layerof grass clippings.

,.

I haven’t had the chance to trythis, but think it is worthwhile topass along – but it will take somework to complete. If the area youwant to dedicate to a flower bedhas clay, or otherwise bad soil digthe area out to about a three footdepth. Line the bottom and sidesof the trench with landscape fab-ric. Put a layer of gravel/sand forgood drainage. Then fill the holewith good soil. The landscape fab-ric is suppose to discourage themixing of the two soils. Plant asusual.

,.

Have you ever heard of bale gar-dening? I hadn’t until I was cruis-ing around the Internet one dayand came across it at this site –http://containergardening.about.com/od/vegetablesandherbs/ss/Straw_Bale_Gardening.htm

After arranging bales (on theirside) how and where you wantthem, you sprinkle fertilizer onthem and water it in. Do this forabout 10 days. The site said thegoal is to have the bales decompos-ing before planting. When thebales are ready spread some pot-ting soil and compost in a two tothree inch thick layer. Plant seedsaccording to package instructions.Plants can also be transplantedinto the bales.

The controversial “Sentinel” billwhich would allow local schoolboards to put armed guards insideschools passed out of the SenateState Affairs Committee last week. About 60 people were on hand atthe meeting, despite snow – andlimited travel – in much of the state.Time constraints, however, limitedthe number of people testifying, aswell as the length of their com-ments. The vote to send HB1087 to theSenate floor as amended was five tofour. This surprised many observerswho had expected the vote to swingthe other way. The amendment removed an ad-dition made by the House that al-lowed school boards to discuss andmake a decision in executive sessionto implement a sentinel program. Sen. Mark Johnston, R-SiouxFalls, noted that such action wouldconflict with the existing open meet-ing statutes.

Sen. Craig Tieszen, R-Rapid City,agreed, noting that it must be a pub-licly made decision, but after thatdetails could be handled in execu-tive session as a personnel matter. The lines were still drawn in thetestimony between those who sup-ported the bill as necessary forteacher and student safety, andthose who feared the presence ofguns would most certainly end in ac-cidental shootings and unintendeddeaths of those who were meant tobe protected. Tieszen recounted instances fromthe 1990s when he was a Rapid Citypolice commander in which anarmed student threatened fellowstudents. Of 13 threats in RapidCity following the Columbine schoolshooting in 1999, Tieszen said, twowere credible and could have causedharm if not stopped. “So, if we think we are immune inSouth Dakota,” Tieszen said, “thinkagain.” Rep. Scott Craig, R-Rapid City,refuted the assumption that this bill

was in response to the Sandy HookElementary School shooting re-cently. He said he had presented hisconcept to the Legislative ResearchCouncil in December and the shoot-ings took place two weeks later. That, he said, “confirmed therightness of this bill.” Since then, hesaid, there have been four more in-cidents seen nationally. Compelling opposition came fromNew Underwood SuperintendentJeff Marlette, who is a retiredbrigadier general who saw combat. “Have we now reached a placethat our state has gotten so bad, sounsafe,” Marlette asked, whereteachers need to carry guns? He out-lined the dangers of peripheral dam-age that even trained lawenforcement can inflict when tryingto bring down a gunman. Rob Monson, State Association ofSchool Administrators, presentedan amendment that would havechanged the bill’s intent to an in-terim study topic. Tieszen later called the so-called“hog house” of the bill an “ambush,”noting he had seen the amendmentfor “exactly 32 minutes” during themeeting. He called the attempt “in-tensely disrespectful.” That amendment was defeated. Sen. Larry Lucas, D-Mission, saidthe sentinel bill was an importantissue, in fact, “this is the issue of the2013 session.” He added, “what wehave in place is working,” notingthat boards could already hireguards. Chairman Larry Rhoden, R-Union Center, said the bill’s intenthas been blown out of proportion.He said it would allow the state’s152 school districts to decidewhether to participate in a sentinelprogram. Rhoden called the program “onesmall step in the right direction.” The bill now travels to the Senatefloor for final legislative considera-tion.)

Sentinel bill narrowly sent to Senate floor; questions

John A. Peters__________________

The weeks go fast and the newsis due once again. This last weekhas been fair weatherwise andMarvin and Vicki have three calveson the ground. One was up forwater with the momma cow andwas a good strong calf, so if all goesthe same, maybe the drought didnot cause a problem with thecalves. Marvin has feed cake min-eral along with the hay, so the cowsare in good shape. As always,everyone keeps those aged cows,especially if they are good produc-ers and raise a great calf, so theymay take a little more help thanthe younger cows do when theycalf. Marvin was having some prob-lems with his haying processor. Hetook it to Kennedy’s and they puton some new parts and it workedgood the next morning, so far any-way. On his new machine he likessome of the new improvements butliked some of the things on theolder one better. Sometimes bymaking things for modern it cancause a problem as the hay doesn’tchange that much. That is the same way with newcars, so many buttons to push ifyou push the wrong one you can bein deep trouble. You could parkwhere there is no place to park.Well, I still have my 2004 Chevypickup that I have drove for thepast seven years. It only has 70,000miles on it and I don’t have to lookto find the buttons that I want, Iknow them all by heart. At my age,I probably will not need another ve-hicle, so don’t need to worry aboutall those buttons. Saturday, February 23, DannyOldenberg stopped in at my housefor a visit and a cup of coffee. I evenscrounged up a few cookies. It surewas nice to visit with him as I usu-ally just see him in town and he isbusy getting errands done and I amdoing mine, so we don’t get to stopand just visit. Later, Marvinstopped in for coffee and also en-joyed a visit with Danny. Those twogrew up together and would seeeach other every week and some-times more, and lots more in thesummer months as their dadsworked a lot with each otherthrough the years. Aren’t memo-ries of those old days fun to remi-nisce about when you get together? Mike and Judy Melvin are herevisiting at Jim and Norma Olden-berg’s. They came to be here forNorma’s 70th surprise birthdaypotluck dinner and party. Theyplan to spend a few days here andwill also go to Rapid City to visitothers. Monday, February 25, Marvinand Vicki took me to Rapid City asI had doctor appointments. The church ladies of the UnitedChurch served the Cenex supperon February 21. It was not a verynice night due to the snow, windand cold. There was not as large acrowd as usual, but more than Ithought would did get brave andcome out. When I came home, Ibrushed about two inches of snowoff my pickup and there was aboutthat much on my front porch thenext morning. So it was anothergood snow but we will still needmuch more. I have cleaned my deckand porch off a lot these last twomonths, but the ground is very dryand when the wind blows there isdust blown off the prairie. Justdoes not seem to do much goodweatherwise. What a surprise was pulled offfor Norma Oldenberg’s 70th birth-day. I don’t know how they all keptit so quite, but was she ever sur-prised. In fact, she laughed, huggedeveryone, cried a little, she was sooverwhelmed by it all. Many peoplecame from the Faith area, Hill

City, Murdo, Sioux Falls, RapidCity, Gillette, Wyo., and the sur-rounding community attended towish her happy birthday. Therewere lots of family members werethere and it was nice to see all ofShorty Oldenberg’s kids and sev-eral of their families. All of Jim andNorma’s kids were there and mostof their grandkids. There was somuch food and such a variety of hotdishes, salads and desserts. Whata great day for her to rememberand she will cherish the manycards she received for many daysafter. Another 10 years and youcan celebrate your 80th, Norma! Kieth and Deb Smith went tostate wrestling at Aberdeen andScott and Becky Brech and RaySmith went with them. Debbie saidthat Philip came out second at thetournament. Way to go Scotties. I stopped in at Al and LenoreBrucklachers to pick up somethings Lenore had for me. Al wasbusy cleaning snow off of his drive-way and road with his John Deeretractor and blade. Lenore said theywere doing fine and all was wellwith them. Today, Sunday, at the Oldenbergbirthday party, I was so pleased tosee Melisa (Mahaffy) Schofield. Shewas one of the young people I hadin my camp at seed camping withthe One Way group. She expressedhow much she had learned at campand how strong her religion istoday from that experience. Shesaid her kids went to one up nearMaurine, but it fell very short ofbeing as good as the one she wentto on the King ranch. Mahaffys andOldenbergs were very close friendsfrom when Oldenbergs lived upnear Faith and their kids had at-tended school together. Seemseverywhere I go I run into one ofthose kids who were in seed camp-ing. I had some articles on some well-known hills in this area and howpeople would tell people where theywere stalled at or near a certainhill. They were landmarks. Nowyou would not be able to do that asthere are not that many left whoremember those hill. Now we allhave new addresses and new roadsand all are marked with littlegreen signs with white letters. I amstill trying to get all the namesdown so I can find the place that Iwant to go. Then I will meet an old time res-ident and they will say well it’s atthe bottom of that certain hill ornear the old place that used to be-long to a certain person. But thosepeople are getting fewer and feweras years go by and that new gadgetyou get for your car now tells youwhere to go. Well, let me tell youthey are not always right. They willtell you to turn left when youshould go right sometimes. I still do not think all those gadg-ets will do you much good if theyquit working when you are way outin no man’s land. You had betterwatch where you are going so youcan backtrack if you have to or belucky and run into an oldtimer whohas lived there a long time andplays by the old rules and directsyou on your way. I arrived home too late to callpeople and many were getting backfrom attending wrestling andweekend visiting. So will close withthis in mind. Remove not the ancient land-mark, which thy fathers have set. –Proverbs 22:28 To keep up even a worthwhiletradition means vitiating the ideabehind it which must necessarily bein constant state of evolution: it ismad to try to express new feeling inmummified form – Alfred JARRY

It’s a beautiful Monday morningwith the sun shining out of a clearblue sky. Makes one think ofspring. But, with a bit of snowon the ground and waking up to 10˚temperatures. Mother Nature istelling us, “not yet.” Having beenmarried to a farmer for almost 53years, you learn that farming getsin their blood. It is a big part oftheir lives. As spring gets closer,thoughts of farming are not far be-hind. Many folks are busy calving,so are staying pretty close to home.Jerry and I lived in a trailer housebefore moving into the house wenow live in. The trailer house wasmoved to the farm and Jerrystayed there during calving. Nolonger having cattle, Jerry and Ihave been busy sorting and clean-ing at that trailer house. What ajob. But, a job that needed to bedone. It’s funny how easy it is toput a job like that off, isn’t it?What’s that saying? “Out of sight,out of mind?” Randy Nemec and hishelper, Larry Lange, put the last ofthe new windows in our house lastweek. They got the steel siding ona storage shed we have and thismorning they are putting on thetrim. Lyle Hunt built that storageshed a number of years ago. Overthe years, we gave that shed apaint job, but, the time came whenpainting wasn’t going to do the job.It needed new siding. So, it’s beena time of cleaning, sorting, and fix-ing, and it does feel good to have itbehind us, for the time being, thatis. There always seems to be thingsto fix, sort, and clean. So, whoknows what our next project willbe. Basketball is coming to a closefor this season. Most district gameshave been played, with regionscoming up, and then it’s off to statetournaments. The girl’s districtchampionship basketball game be-tween the Spearfish Spartans andSt. Thomas More Cavaliers was anexciting game, with Spearfish win-ning by two points. We have agranddaughter, Miranda Meeker,playing for the Spearfish Spartans.They play against Red Cloud in theregional tournament tomorrow. Asmany folks know, Keith Hunt en-joys basketball and has video tapedmany basketball games over theyears. From Keith, we learned thatthe Spearfish girls’ coach, EricLappe, is the step-grandson of DonSandal, who as many of you know,

grew up in the Moenville area andnow lives in Pierre with his wife,Shirley, who is Eric’s grandmother.What’s that song, “It’s a SmallWorld After All?” It is that. Accord-ing to Keith, Eric went to schooland played basketball at Harold.Reports are he was a great basket-ball player. This is Eric’s first yearas basketball coach for theSpearfish Spartans. Good luck to-morrow night, Spartans. Roy Hunt, Keith Hunt, BarryHunt, and Christine (Hunt) Niedanwent to Pierre Sunday, to the homeof their sister, Peg and Roger John-son. Roger and Peg’s family, ChadJohnson, who goes to college atBrookings, Leesa Johnson, Denver,Colo., and Laurie Johnson, HollandToles and their son, Landon Toles,Austin, Texas, were also there. Allattended church at ResurrectionLutheran where little Landon wasbeing baptized. A number of Lau-rie’s friends from her school days ofgrowing up in Pierre were alsothere. Pastor Bly is pastor of thatchurch. Many folks may rememberPastor Bly as he and his familylived in Philip for a number ofyears while he was pastor there.Following the church service, therewas a dinner at the church givingpeople a chance to visit while en-joying a good meal. Saturday, Clint and PrerrySaucerman headed for Rapid Citywhere they enjoyed the classic carshow with their son, Tel and Ellie(Nemec) Saucerman and family.They spent the night at Tel andEllie’s and Sunday they all at-tended church at Victory Chapelwhere Tel is pastor. Everyone en-joyed a potluck meal and fellowshipfollowing the church service. Afteran enjoyable weekend it was timeto head home. Clint and Prerrystopped at the Philip NursingHome for a visit with Clint’s dad,Gaylord Saucerman. Prerry reported that Wednes-day evening there were 55 peopleat their taco meal at TrinityLutheran Church education room,with Lenten services following.Those tacos were delicious, just theway I like them. Learning thatDeanna Finn made up the doughfor those tacos I told her they weredelicious. She said it’s all in howmuch you knead dough. If youknead it too much, according toDeanna, it makes the dough tough.But, then, Deanna is one of thosepeople who has that magical touch

when it comes to baked foods.March 6 will be another good mealbefore Lenten services, pancakesand waffles with homemade syrup.It is from 5:00 to 6:30, so mark yourcalendars, you won’t be sorry. Friday, Shorty and MickeyWoitte were in for a big surprise astheir kids and families began com-ing home to help Shorty andMickey celebrate their 65th wed-ding anniversary.

The state’s “working poor” whodo not qualify for Medicaid cover-age for low income families and in-dividuals were the center ofattention at a joint hearing at thestate Capitol recently. South Dakota has the opportu-nity to provide that coverage, butthe governor has indicated thestate should go slowly in adoptingthe expanded program, citing thenation’s fiscal problems. The health and human servicescommittees of both the House andSenate heard testimony February20, with Senate Chair Jean Hun-hoff, R-Yankton, noting therewould be no bill to vote on after-ward. The expansion of Medicaid inthe state, if there is one, apparentlywould be handled through the gen-eral appropriations bill, expected inthe last few days of the session’smain run. Twenty-one people testified infavor of the expansion, while onlytwo testified against ... but bothsides offered compelling argumentsduring the two-hour hearing. John Mengenhausen, HorizonHealth Center, with facilities inHoward, Elk Point, Isabel, Ft.Pierre and Faith, and 27 medicalclinics, spoke in favor of the expan-sion. The Medicaid expansion, hesaid, is the best and least expensiveway to help the currently unin-sured, and allow providers to addstaff that is needed. This would en-hance economic development,which he called a “gradual puzzlethat works together.” Many of those testifying notedthat those most helped by the ex-pansion of Medicaid benefits wouldbe the people who are workinghard, many times at two or morejobs, but who fall just above theguidelines to receive Medicaid ben-efits. The Reverand Karl Kroeger,Pierre, said while people are en-couraged to pull themselves up bytheir bootstraps, “some people justdon’t have boots ... others may haveboots, but not bootstraps.” And,Kroeger noted, this is about “help-ing those people who slip throughthe cracks.” Gale Walker, chief executive of-ficer Avera Health of Parkston,with clinics in Parkston, Tripp andLake Andes, said $250,000 in med-ical care was written off by his fa-cilities last year, as a result oftreating those who can’t afford topay. Expansion of Medicaid bene-fits, he said, would take care of theexpenses in a better fashion than is

being done currently. Finance Director Erica Peterson,Sanford Chamberlain, testifiedthere is high Medicaid utilizationamong the working poor in herarea. She noted there are 65 self-pay patients each month in theiremergency room. Of that amount,said Peterson, 95 percent wouldqualify for assistance under theMedicaid expansion. She alsourged lawmakers who are con-cerned about the future federalbacking of the expansion, not to “letthis overshadow the ... positive ef-fect” it would have now. More and more, noted Jim Hard-wick, Hughes County commis-sioner, “private insurance becomesa luxury.” As a commissioner,Hardwick noted the increase inpoor relief cases brought to thecounty for payment. He said the ex-pansion would be “an investment”in the state’s people and its econ-omy. Opponent Florence Thompson,Caputa, urged lawmakers to “lookat the big picture ... and be realis-tic,” comparing the governmentprograms to socialism. ExpandingMedicaid benefits, she said, is in-tended to further involve states fi-nancially. Thompson asked thatlawmakers “resist any attempt toexpand an already bankrupt pro-gram.” Stephanie Strong, Rapid City,also spoke against the expansion,noting that “Medicaid had itschance, and already has failed.”She urged that South Dakota be aleader in rejecting the expansion,noting the “free market will fix ourproblem.” Sen. Phil Jensen, R-Rapid City,quoted from the Bible that it was“the church’s responsibility” to helpthe poor. “The Catholic Church asvast real estate holdings,” addedJensen, asking, “Why can’t that besold off to help the poor?” He saidhe would be resisting the expan-sion, noting that to add more“would be insane.” Rep. Steve Hickey, R-SiouxFalls, who is a minister, said he be-lieved the state would be paying forthe expense either way, recallingearlier testimony about the highcost of emergency room care. Hecalled it “a moral issue,” and saidwhile he was worried about the ex-pansion, “we need to take care of asmany people as we can.” Rep. Troy Heinert, D-Mission,noted that both his wife and sonwere uninsurable, and he could seefamilies in his area that this ex-pansion will help. After June 1, henoted, the Indian Health Serviceswill have no money to fix the prob-lem. Calling it a “moral” issue,Heinert said “I will need to approvethis.” A decision is expected toward theend of the legislative session, whenfinal budget figures are put to-gether.

Blast from the Past

(continued from page 5)

The Milesville area got a littlelight snow Thursday – nothing likewhat the folks in Nebraska,Kansas and Missouri got. We havemixed feelings about snow thistime of year. We need the moisturefor sure, but it would be more “con-venient” if we got it closer tospring. We'll be thankful wheneverit comes.

Dan and Gayla Piroutek havebeen busy traveling to bull sales.Last Wednesday they were at Pow-ers Lake, N.D., which is only a fewmiles from Canada and Montana.It was -5˚ with 18 inches of snow onthe ground, which meant theditches were full, with drifts manyplaces. And, the wind was blowing.No new snow, but it was like aground blizzard. They were glad tohead back south as it felt like theywere in Siberia. It was 15˚ whenthey returned to Milesville Wed-nesday evening and it felt like itwas a heat wave.

We are sorry to learn that onTuesday night Sonny Stangle felland broke his leg. He was taken toRapid City where he had surgery.The plan is that he be transferredto Philip on Monday the 25th. Glen and Jackie Radway wentto the Count's Car Show in RapidCity Saturday. Friday, Trevor, Keagan andColby Fitch were in the Black Hillsfor snowmobiling. Brayden Fitch,Ridge Sandal, and Cade Kjerstad

The Philip win was more thanjust a likely possibility, when in thefirst quarter the visitors could noteven get on the scoreboard until aminute and 29 seconds remained.The quarter ended with only onefield goal for the Kougars and morethan 10 times that for the Scotties. Families got to see their athletesplay, but the second quarter was noglory to watch as Philip’s defensestymied Kadoka. With 4:30 re-maining on the second quarterclock, Philip finally allowed a sec-ond basket by Kadoka. Some foulsby the Scotties allowed theKougars some free throw points,but nowhere near enough to evenbe a threat. The misery for the op-ponents was finally over with afinal score of Philip – 86, Kadoka –23.

Ray and Nancy Neuhauser at-tended funeral services in Pierrefor Joe Husband on Saturday. Joewas a former neighbor of Nancy'sin the Highmore area, and Joe'swidow, Bessie, is a cousin of VelvaNeuhauser's. Both Ray and Nancyhave been enjoying card groupsand senior center activities. Adam and Jodi Roseth and fam-ily spent last weekend in RapidCity, having a family outing beforecalving season kicks into high gear.The kids got to do some swimming,which was a real treat. Jon and Connie Johnson had aquieter week also. Their son, Noah,had BB gun practice on Sunday,and next Saturday will be the firstmatch of the season. After that,they will have shooting matchesmost every weekend for the nextcouple of months. A week ago, Helen Beckwithtraveled to Brookings with herdaughter, Rose Briggs, and family.Helen's grandson was playing in ahockey tournament there. Whileshe was in Brookings, Helen alsohad the opportunity to visit her fa-ther and a couple of her sisters.Her father lives in an assisted liv-ing facility there. Helen said he hasa large bulletin board full of pho-tos – he now has about 75 great-grandchildren, so it is a challengeto keep them straight. Kevin Neuhauser went to townSaturday to be on hand for a paint-ing project at their house in town.It sounds like he was more of aspectator than a participant – hefreely admits that if you are paint-ing the interior of a home, he isprobably not the person you wantwielding a paint brush. Mary andBrianna were doing the painting.Mary and Kevin went out to supperbefore Kevin returned to the ranch.Mary stayed in town to do somecleaning in preparation for theworkmen coming Monday. Boththe floor installers and the cabinetinstallers were scheduled for Mon-day, so progress is being made. Ican't wait to see the finished prod-uct. Kevin attended the bull sale inPhilip Tuesday. Kelly Briggs said there isn'tmuch "fancy" news at their housethis week. The three young chil-dren have been enjoying the niceweather and Chase and Kelly arekept busy with their everyday ac-tivities. Mary Briggs spent last Thursdaywith her mother-in-law, Lil Briggs.Lil has been having a lot of back

pain, but some days are better thanothers. Early last Saturday, Keva(Briggs) Joens stopped by andpicked up Mary Briggs, and theyheaded to Watertown to the StateB Wrestling Tournament. Theystopped in Pierre and picked up afriend, and they were on their way.Congratulations to Keva's son,Zane, who earned second place inthe 106 pound weight class. Theladies returned to the ranch lateSaturday night. Here at Neuhauser ranch, itseemed like the week passed inkind of a blur. I was in Salem fromSunday through Wednesday, visit-ing our daughter, Jennifer, andhelping her with some projects.Her husband, Ross, was attendingmeetings in Washington, D.C., forthe week. While he was there, hegot to spend some time with ourdaughter, Lori, which they both en-joyed. I stopped in Kadoka to visitmy mother, Letoy Brown, Wednes-day afternoon. I went on to Philipand attended a Farm Bureau meet-ing before returning to the ranch.Thursday was spent catching uparound here, and Friday I waspreparing for company. Our daugh-ter, Chelsea, and her husband,Mike, arrived from Rapid City Fri-day evening, and our son, Scott, hiswife, Corry, and their children,Marisa and Austin, arrived fromtheir home in Spearfish Saturday.It was a fun, busy weekend, and bySunday evening I was ready for thecouch and a blanket. Randy madea trip to Union Center to pick upsome feed bunks last week, and healso attended a card game at KevinNeuhauser's. This week, I am grateful for thefact that the majority of our familylives relatively nearby. It is so niceto be able to drive a few hours andbe able to spend time together. Ican't imagine what it must havebeen like for those settlers whoknew when they headed west, theywould seldom see their familyagain. And they didn't even havetelephones or e-mail or skype orany of the other communicationmethods that we have now. Iwouldn't have liked that one bit. I hope you'll enjoy the wonderfulweather this week. And for yougardeners, you might want to startwatching your flowerbeds. If theyaren't covered with snow, chancesare the plants in the south-facingbeds will soon be poking throughthe ground. Yahoo.

Governor signs first bills


It wasn’t quite midnight oil thatwas burning February 20 at theCapitol in Pierre, but it may havefelt that way to legislators trying tobeat a deadline. That day, this year’s 26th in thesession, the rule is that a bill orjoint resolution must be out of itshouse of origin. Both sides were busy addressingbills – either killing or passingthem – up until around 10 p.m. TheSenate finished just before thathour, and the House went past byabout 15 minutes. All in all, about 90 bills passedthrough their hands that day. By the close of the week, legisla-tors had just two weeks left of theregular run of the session. Democratic leader Bernie Hun-hoff, Yankton, noted during a newsconference on Friday that whiletwo weeks did not appear to be along time, much could still be ac-complished. “It’s like a nuclear half-life,”

Hunhoff said. Senators dealt with in excess of45 bills, while House members con-sidered that same number. Legislative history buffs remem-ber times in the past when ruleswere suspended so that debatecould go on past the midnight dead-line. Committee and legislative agen-das were somewhat lighter the restof the week, with the Friday Houseand Senate calendars deferredafter less than an hour in session,so that members could be on theirway home for the weekend. Legislators expect to be backworking Monday through Thurs-day this week, and Mondaythrough Friday next week. The lat-ter week traditionally deals withthe final budget. Then, after a two-week recess,legislators will return to the capitolon Monday, March 25, for the finalday. That is the day reserved todeal with any vetoes the governormay have made.

Legislative deadline metfor crossover of bills

by Senator John Thune As a young high school basket-ball player, it was not until thistime of year that I would allow my-self to start thinking about playingon the biggest stage in SouthDakota – the state basketball tour-nament. I remember the nervous energyin the room as I sat through peprallies, boarded the bus on the wayto district championships, and satin the locker room minutes beforethe game. I remember thinkingthat the extra time I spent practic-ing free throws, and runningsprints, and defensive drills was allworth it for the shot to play at thestate “B” basketball tournament. While I never had the opportu-nity to play in the State “B” basket-ball tournament, I know that theleadership, teamwork, and dedica-tion I learned on the court providedme with essential life lessons.These life lessons were also in-spired by my time spent in the gymwith my father, Harold Thune. Mydad, who was a longtime teacher,coach and athletic director atMurdo, taught each of his kids andplayers about the importance ofhard work and sportsmanship.This year the Murdo auditoriumwas renamed after my dad in honorof his lifetime of service to Murdoathletics. This was a special recog-nition for him and our whole familywho grew up playing basketball inthe Murdo gym. Spending time at the state bas-ketball tournaments, I frequentlyrun into some of the athletes Iplayed against in high school who

have come to watch their own sonsand daughters compete in the statebasketball tournament. I knoweach of them takes pride in seeingtheir children enjoy and excel at asport that was meaningful to them.Stories like these form some of thegreat South Dakota basketball tra-ditions, and bring together fami-lies, communities and schools tocelebrate the accomplishments ofour student-athletes. I hope that all of the participantsin this year’s tournaments taketime to enjoy the experience andthat each of the communities makeit out to support their teams. Goodluck to all participants in thisyear’s tournaments, and I look for-ward to seeing many SouthDakotans at the games.

South Dakota hoopsby Elizabeth “Sam” groszCommunity news Service

Here’s a brief review of some ofthe South Dakota Legislature’s re-cent action. The Senate approved two banson texting while driving Tuesdayand sent it on to the House. Thefirst bill, SB142, prohibits textingwhile driving on South Dakotaroads, and the second, SB44, wouldjeopardize the commercial licenseof a driver caught texting any-where in the nation. The House Health and HumanServices Committee voted seven tofive against HB1188, a bill thatwould have kept mentally ill peoplewho have been found to be a dan-ger from owning guns. Their nameswould have been added to a na-tional database, which is checkedprior to purchase. Main sponsorRep. Bernie Hunhoff, D-Yankton,said the state is one of about 19states not submitting informationabout dangerous mentally ill resi-dents to that database. A bill to increase legislative payfrom $110 per official day of sessionup to $123 squeaked through theHouse 36-33 on February 20. Thefollowing day, the Senate referredthe bill to its State Affairs Commit-tee. Lawmakers currently receive$6,000 per session, an amountwhich hasn’t been raised in 15years. The Senate State Affairs Com-mittee and the full Senate unani-mously approved two veterans billslast week. The first designates thethird Tuesday of September asPOW/MIA working holiday and thesecond designates August 7 as Pur-ple Heart recognition day, also aworking holiday. A bill increasing certain videolottery payouts to $1,000 passedboth the House Commerce Com-mittee and the full House, 39-28,this past week. SB52 now heads tothe governor for his consideration. A bill that would increase bond-ing authority for the state’s four

technical institutes, HB1098,bogged down in the Senate StateAffairs Committee February 22.Upgrades for the Watertown andMitchell tech schools have beencompleted and now the last phasefor the schools in Sioux Falls andRapid City are up next. The in-crease in bonding authority from$105 million up to $140 millionwould pave the way for those proj-ects. However, action was deferreduntil financial info the governor re-quested from the Bureau of Fi-nance and Management could bereviewed. Persons hunting mountain lionswill no longer be required to wearfluorescent orange exterior gar-ments, if the governor also ap-proves. The measure, HB1029,unanimously passed out of the Sen-ate before legislators headed homefor the weekend. A lively debate in the House onFebruary 22 centered on the med-ical care for certain unborn chil-dren. While Rep. Bernie Hunhoff,D-Yankton, urged passage to en-sure prenatal care that would savemoney by producing healthier ba-bies, other lawmakers worried thatthose low income mothers were il-legal aliens. Several amendmentsto that end were defeated beforefinal passage of HB1214 by 39-28was accomplished, sending it off tothe Senate for its consideration.The bill had been forgiven thecrossover deadline because of a re-quested fiscal note attached to it. SB27, which revises the design,construction and equipping of aveterans’ home near Hot Springs,adding an additional 10,000 sq. ft.,was approved by the House lastweek and sent to the Governor forhis expected approval. The projecthad been approved last year, butrevisions were made to the $6 mil-lion facility which needed approval,“It’s a good deal for the state,” com-mented Rep. Fred Romkema, R-Spearfish.

An official from the new North-ern Beef Packers processing plantin Aberdeen made a short but im-portant statement Friday duringthe South Dakota Farmers Unionstate convention: “I would like tostart off by saying, we’re open,”said A.J. Munger, who got a largeround of applause. Munger is the new director ofnew business development, pricingand marketing at Northern BeefPackers. “It’s been a long road. It’sbeen a rocky road at times, butwith a lot of perseverance, and helpfrom the community we’ve beenable to open our doors and it’s beena good start.” After suffering a number of set-backs, the company started har-vesting cattle last October. Now,the plant processes 300 head perday on average. The plant is ownedby Korean and Chinese investorsand getting to this point has notbeen easy, Munger said.“It’s quite a task building a beef

processing plant from the groundup,” Munger said. “One of theseplants hasn’t been built in the last35 years, so it’s been quite the chal-lenge to go out and find the expert-ise that it takes to get one of theseplants built and up and running.” The plant is still working out thekinks, making sure all of the sys-tems “talk to each other,” Mungersaid. “We’re getting pretty close,and we should start adding produc-tion here in the next few weeks.” The company is working to ex-pand its market. They’ve startedworking with high-end distributorsin Chicago and New York City,Munger said. They’re still finishingthe necessary paperwork, butMunger said the plant could be ex-porting meat to other countries bythe end of March. Munger said. “Our studies haveshown that there are enough cattlewithin 200 miles of the plant tomeet all of our needs,” Mungersaid. And he said it’s quality beefthey’re processing. “We didn’t buildthis plant in Aberdeen, S.D., bymistake. We built it right in themiddle of prime cattle country, andso far our grading quality has beenexcellent.” The plant will also be workingwith the South Dakota certifiedprogram, selling beef that wereborn, raised and slaughtered in thestate. The 420,000-square-foot plant isknown as a regional packer, moreof a niche-market plant as opposedto major packers. “We don’t focusas much on quantity, we want tofocus more on quality and produc-ing that quality product,” Mungersaid. There are approximately 10 re-gional packers in the country,Munger said, and the Aberdeenplant is the most northern regionalpacker in the United States.Munger said Northern Beef Pack-ers has over 400 employees, withplans to increase that number to600 in the short term. Most of theproduction employees are makinganywhere from $12 to $18 per hour

starting out. They have the capacity toprocess as many as 1,500 head ofcattle per day on one shift. Mungersaid with some capital improve-ments it could be possible to moveto 1,800 head per day. That’s onone shift. If they would move to twoshifts they could double the produc-tion.
