by Del Bartels This year the Philip Drama Clubwill perform the country westernmusical “Bubba’s Revenge,” a se-quel to last year’s comedy musical“Honky Tonk Angels.” The per-formances will be Thursday, Fri-day and Saturday, May 16-18, at7:00 p.m., and Sunday, May 19, at2:00 p.m. The plot is simple. Two friendsand their husbands are going tovisit their former Nashville singingpartner for the opening of herworld tour. It also happens to beher birthday, which is on Hal-loween. An accident of a mirror-ball falling on her turns the visitinto a musical tribute, one in whichher spirit becomes involved. The long list of country westernclassic songs is not only entertain-ing, but done with exceptionalquality and surprising accuracy tothe original artists. Local vocalistsact out not only their stage charac-ters, but take on the personalitiesand mannerisms appropriate forthe artist of each song. They say that really good actorscontinually stretch for roles outsidetheir comfort zone. Mike Vetterdoes exactly that. Though many ofthis performance’s songs are donein duos, trios and ensembles, eachcharacter performs their share of

solo songs. As the “Honky Tonk An-gels” number one fan, Vetter willgrab your attention, and yourfunny bone, with “The Devil WentDown to Georgia” and a surprisecompetition versus one of theladies. His character challenges theaudience to keep a straight face. Ray Gibson, as Kenny Rogers,treats the women in the audiencewith the song “Lady.” He stayswith this artist to sing the duet “Is-lands in the Stream,” then jumpsartists to sing “Prop Me Up Besidethe Jukebox.” Harlan Moos, playing Bubba, isthe man who supposedly can’t getanything right, can’t comprehendthat he should give flowers, andcan’t sing. He gets his revenge andproves everyone wrong. His “AchyBreaky Heart” is uncanny, thoughthe Billy Ray Cyrus wig does help. Having a contageous type of funwith her character, talented BarbBowen effortlessly shifts from a hi-larious “You’re the Reason our Kidsare Ugly” to a prat-fall “Elvira” toa spine-tingling “Ballad of MarieLaveau” to angelic gospel medleys.It wouldn’t be difficult at all to lis-ten to her sing for hours. Maureen Palecek, outstandingas Dolly Parton, will keep the audi-ence toe-tapping and singing alongwith “I Feel Lucky,” “Here You

Come Again,” “Fist City” and a no-holds-barred competition in “YouAin’t Woman Enough to Take myMan.” Deb Smith portrays the only ori-gial “Honky Tonk Angel” to stay inthe “Nash-Vegas” singing business.Her dream-like, fatal accidentstarts the plot. Adding her tremen-dous vocal talents, she haunts thejukebox and spooks poor Bubba tothe point that revenge is imminent.Eventually everything blows up,leading to heavenly renditions ofgospel as well as country songs. Vocal backup is done by CrystalEisenbraun and Glenn Parsons. In-strumentals are done by MarilynMillage, Chuck Carstensen, MikeSeager and Parsons. The play iscodirected by Marcey Ramsey andDianne Walker. Lights and soundare managed by Steve Millage,Mark Nelson and Seager. The “Honky Tonk Angels” are re-united, for at least this show. Theaudience is encouraged to join inwith the final numbers, which in-clude “Amazing Grace” and “Willthe Circle be Unbroken.” The mu-sical comedy “Bubba’s Revenge” isan evening of country music thatwill keep the audience involved,laughing, tapping their toes andsinging along.

A country western seance set to music? Shown encouraging the medium (no, he’s a small) is Deb Smith as a deceased“Honky Tonk Angel.” As far away as possible is Bubba, played by Harlan Moos, who is the only one with the dreadful “gift”of being able to see her. The others are trying to communicate with their former Nashville partner and prove Bubba isn’tsuch a loser. Shown from left are actors Barb Bowen, Mike Vetter, Ray Gibson and Maureen Palecek.

by Del Bartels The Philip City Council in itsmeeting Monday, May 6, quicklygot through old business, ad-journed as the old city council,swore in three of its members, andreconvened as the “new” city coun-cil. Three members, Jennifer Hen-rie, Marion Matt and Greg Arthur,began new terms of office. Arthurwas voted in as the council presi-dent, with Matt coming in as thevice president. The council approved pendingbills totaling over $153,770, withover $66,220 being a payment to-ward the Wood Avenue andWalden Avenue street project cur-rently underway. Another $23,839went to SPN and Associates forconstruction engineer supervisorywork on the same street project. The city of Philip has vacated thealley north of the Senechal Apart-ments. The approximate 20 foot by140 foot piece of land was given toGolden West Telecommunications.The strip of land is north of wherethe old museum building used tobe, and is fair distance north of thenew Senechal Park. The city of Philip also vacated aportion of its public right of waycurrently known as East CherryStreet. The area has been given toCenex Harvest States – MidwestCooperatives, which will incur allexpenses in relocating East CherryStreet to just a bit south of its cur-rent location.

Midwest Co-op has agreed to aroad maintenance agreement thatwill be developed by the city’s at-torney in the near future. MidwestCo-op has been granted buildingand flood plain development per-mits for a projected fertilizer plantand conveyor, access roads, waterand sewer connections. A number of citizens spoke to thecouncil about a disturbing thepeace complaint. A neighbor hasowned a dog breeding kennel foryears. Banding together after eachhas individually attempted to com-municate with the dog owner, thegroup is officially complainingabout the constant barking whenthe owner is not home and also ofthe stench and flies coming from

the property. Though the dogowner has removed the dogs for atime after some of the communica-tions, the dogs eventually are re-turned and the problems continue. No citations or fines have beenlevied so far. The city will notifythe dog owner, who was not at thecouncil meeting, of the city’s poli-cies. City policy states that thedogs can be impounded. MayorMike Vetter said, “If you don’t en-force policy, there’s no sense of hav-ing them in the books.” The council addressed water ac-cess for crop sprayers and singleengine air tanker planes at thePhilip Airport. Trips into Philip by

City vacates property, will enforce dog

ordinances

Swearing their oath of office, the “new” Philip City Council members began theirnext terms. At left, council member Jennifer Henrie begins her one-year appoint-ment for Ward III.

Lookin’ Around by Syd Iwan

I’ve become very adept in thelast month at stifling sneezes.There’s a good reason for that. If Isneeze, you see, my back goes intoa nasty spasm that tends to takemy breath away. In other words,I’ve been coping with one of thosetimes when the back decides to re-align itself or when some nervegets pinched. I don’t know exactlywhat happens, but the result is aneed for cautious movement forseveral weeks. This is usually afour to six week deal according topast experience, but it is usuallyworst the first week and then grad-ually subsides. I haven’t had one of these backaffairs for several years now so Iguess it was time to sharpen mycoping skills. Back when I was inhigh school and college, I wouldsometimes get muscle spasms inmy neck. I really hated those sincethey tended to make me walkaround with my head held ratherstiffly and to one side. Muscle-re-laxant pills helped quite a bit, butI haven’t bothered with those thistime around. The back problem ismore a dull ache than an activepain except, of course, if I cough toohard, sneeze, or bend just wrong. Anytime something hurts, youhave to learn, sometimes the hardway, how to act to keep the miseryat a minimum. With bad backs,you quickly realize that youshouldn’t just bend over and picksomething up off the floor. Instead,you might kneel down on one kneeto retrieve the item from way downthere. It often seems like you losehold of a lot more things whenpicking them up takes caution.Maybe you always drop lots of stuffand don’t notice because you canjust lean over and retrieve it with-out much thought. On the otherhand, maybe moving circumspectlytends to make you klutzy so youdrop more. Who knows? In the lastweek, I’m glad to say, I can againjust lean over and grab withoutmuch thought and maybe I canalso sneeze again without majorspasms, but I’m going to give thata bit more time before testing thewaters, so to speak. I know I cancough harder now without troublethan I could a month ago, butsneezes are a bit more extreme. We humans, as you know, haveto learn how to cope with all sortsof things. I know several peoplewho always have some back painand have for years. Others havedifficulty with arthritis, gastricdistress, poor vision, bad joints,and what not. There are other hard

things to deal with as well such askids gone wrong or spouses thatact badly. Some people can’t escapeaddictions or adequately see whatconsequences some of their actionswill have. There is no end of thosematters we have to fight to keepthem from taking us down. Son Chance, I’m sad to say, hashad more than his fair share of dif-ficulties to deal with. For starters,autism causes many problems. Inpart, that is because your sensesare all so extreme that one is bom-barded with too much input. Whenyour senses of hearing, sight,smell, touch and taste are too welldeveloped, the input is excessive.You have to learn how to blocksome of that and protect yourself.Chance has developed his defensesenough that he can still be a sweetguy and stay mostly happy, butsome of those defenses inhibitwhat he can do for himself. Heneeds a lot of care as a result. But,as I said, he’s a very nice fellow sohis parents don’t object to helpinghim live as good a life as possible. On top of the autism, Chancealso has myasthenia gravis whichis a fairly nasty condition too. Inthis, the body produces antibodiesthat interfere with messages fromthe brain to the muscles and makeprolonged movement difficult.Even the medicines needed to keepmyasthenia under control causeproblems of their own such as soresthat take forever to heal. Still, wethink an awful lot of our son andwill try to keep him with us as longas possible. Just watching his con-stant but good-natured struggle isan inspiration to those of us whohave so much less to complainabout. By the way, in case you some-time need to stifle a sneeze, here’swhat I’ve learned. The first line ofdefense is closing off the nostrilthat is starting to itch. This is doneby laying one finger aside of thenose like Santa Claus does in theold poem. He probably does that toprevent sneezes caused by all thesoot in the chimneys he’s poppingup and down in. If that doesn’tquite do it, simply quit breathingaltogether (briefly of course.) Afterthe itch subsides, you should prob-ably blow your nose to keep thingsunder control down the line. That’show it’s done. Fortunately, Ishouldn’t have to worry a lot aboutsneezing in the near future, butnow I know how to prevent it. Afterreading this, so do you, but hope-fully you’ll never need to find out ifI know what I’m talking about.

It’s a wonderful ... by Del Bartels

The young mother was hurrying, not for any reason other than that

was what she seemingly always did to try to keep up with life.

Her two year old was in the back seat, quiet for now. This meant that

the rug rat was trying to figure out the buckle on the safety seat. The

four month old was strapped in its carrier car seat at the mother’s

right. Warning; the baby bottle was so far unnoticed as being empty.

Radio on as a pacifier; air conditioner on so open windows didn’t let in

noisy stimulus – closest thing possible to peace before the kids and gro-

ceries had to be hauled in when they got home. If her husband ever

breathed wanting even one more kid, she was going to ....

The car in front was forever at the stop sign. Who was killing time?

All that could be seen were hands clutching the top of the steering

wheel and a tuft of gray hair. Oh, great, petite Mrs. Smith on one of

her crawling coasts to yet one more volunteer activity! The elderly

woman went everywhere. Why don’t her kids, grandkids, great-grand-

kids and all the rest visit more often and keep her off the streets?

The young mother blinked, wondering what she would be doing at

Mrs. Smith’s age. At least then she wouldn’t be going berserk over the

attention demanding kids. She couldn’t wait for them to grow up. Then

she wondered, what would these two be like, all grown up with their

own lineages. Would they live close by? Would they visit often, or be

too busy with everything else? Would she have grandkids; well, most

probably. Would she really know the grandkids as they grow up? Would

they keep in touch or would she have to do all the effort? Would the

wish to slow down become a nightmare of a lonely empty nest?

The car in front pulled away. Instead of turning to go around the

block and easily getting in front of Mrs. Smith, the young mother fol-

lowed. The elderly woman was coming from the direction of the post

office. Whenever seen, she seemed to have an arm full of letters, either

being mailed out or getting picked up. It was almost a comical thing

how often the woman’s cell phone rang, with a different song for each

caller. In the elderly circles, she was one of the brains about modern

technology, giving advice on texting, emailing, attaching digital photos,

and Facebook. Her tiny apartment didn’t have a dainty couch, but a

huge hide-a-bed and a closet full of sleeping bags.

The young mother blinked again, recalling with sad disgust how long

it had been since she had called her own mother. Had she sent any re-

cent photos of the kids? She remembered acting insulted when her

mother had asked about someday having a third grandchild.

The groceries were quickly put away. The kids were then worn into

a prenap exhaustion during an extra long playtime with mommy. A

stack of photos were printed off of the camera card. Mother’s Day let-

ters were written to the kids’ grandmothers. Arriving home, her hus-

band was bewildered by the tight hug he got from his tearful wife.

Hero status is not reserved onlyfor those brave men and womenwho rush into burning buildings orstep into the front lines of war. “There’s a hero in all of us,” saidLori Liebman, donor recruitmentdirector of United Blood Services,this area’s nonprofit communityblood service provider. “Ordinarypeople are saving lives every day.They do it while they are on lunchbreak or while they are running er-rands. They have found the hero inthemselves by donating blood.” You can find the hero in you atthe upcoming Community Better-ment Committee sponsored blooddrive, Tuesday, May 14, from 10:30a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Bad RiverSenior Citizen’s Center in Philip.Contact Enid Schultz at 859-2145for an appointment. To encourage the habit of blood

During a Senechal Park clean up day, Saturday, May 4, volunteers hauled out twolarge trailer loads, a pickup load and several boxes of yard waste and trash. Work-ers trimmed up the larger trees, and removed elm seedlings – some as tall assix foot. They also removed some of the chain link fence on the south side of thenew mini-park, to make the south side the new official park entrance. Future workwill include the removal of a cedar tree and replacing it with a trellis arbor as an-other park entrance. Depending on future funds, plans are to add benches orsome other kind of seating, and maybe even a gazebo. Senechal Park, the newestpark in Philip, is the fenced in area just north of the Senechal Apartments, mosteasily accessible from N. Center Avenue. Courtesy photo

Mikkel Pates heard about the fa-mous spa at Midland all his life,but he’d never visited. Last fall,while hunting pheasants inHaakon County, he arranged for asoak and a massage at the historicStroppel Hotel. His account is fea-tured in the May/June 2013 issueof South Dakota Magazine. Ranchers, including Pates’grandfather, have long soughttreatment for aching bones andmuscles in the spa’s 110-degree

spring water. Pates describes howthe Stroppel family began the busi-ness decades ago, and whether ornot its waters are indeed curative. The hotel and spa is now undernew ownership, a partnershipheaded by Kathy Jensen, and goesby the business name Lava WaterHotel. South Dakota Magazine is pub-lished in Yankton. It explores thehistory, arts, culture, sports andoutdoors of the state.

More than 31 municipal officialsrepresenting five cities gathered atthe South Dakota MunicipalLeague’s annual District 8 meet-ing, held in Murdo, Tuesday, April30. Yvonne Taylor, South DakotaMunicipal League executive direc-tor, spoke about the outcome of the2013 legislative session, and the ef-fect new laws will have on SouthDakota municipalities. Taylor alsodiscussed the direction and futureof the Municipal League and serv-ices offered to the municipalities. “More and more we are seeingthe need to get better informationout to the citizens and legislators.Municipal government provides avast array of services, and peopleneed to be informed of where theirtax dollars are going. This type ofeducation can only benefit munici-pal government. The taxpayers

would be very proud of their localgovernment if they were fullyaware of how much service a mu-nicipality provides at a relativelylow cost,” Taylor said. Paul Young, SDML president for2013 and Councilmember for thecity of Spearfish, was also on handto discuss his priorities for the cur-rent year as well as to conduct theelection of District 8 officers for theupcoming year. Others in atten-dance were representatives of var-ious state agencies and represent-atives of groups affiliated with themunicipal league. Harry Weller, mayor in Kadoka,was re-elected as District 8 chairand David Geisler, mayor inMurdo, was elected as vice chair. In other business, those attend-ing voted to hold the 2014 District8 meeting in Philip.

Municipal officials meeting

Secretary of State Jason Gantstated that “even though we haveissued a smaller number of permitsin April, South Dakota has seenrecord numbers of new and re-newed permits during the firstquarter of 2013.” Concealed pistol permits re-ceived during the month of Aprilhave tapered off a bit but the num-bers are larger than April 2012. Incomparing the 1,666 permits is-sued during April 2013 with the1,521 issued during the same pe-riod in 2012, the increase is at anormal pace. During the months of January,February, March and April, 14,442permits were issued. This com-

pares with 18,031 for all of 2012. Gant also said “the number ofphone and email inquiries aboutconcealed pistol permits has in-creased. Many South Dakotans, aswell as non-residents, are inter-ested in the firearms laws and rec-iprocity agreements with otherstates.” According to Haakon CountySheriff Fred Koester, permits is-sued or reissued in Haakon Countyfor all of 2011 totaled 66. For 2012,they totaled 55. For 2013, as ofApril 30, they already total 62. Information on South DakotaFirearm Laws and requirementsfor applying for a concealed pistolpermit is available at sdsos.gov.

tanker trucks is a concern, both forcost and potential accident liabil-ity. Businesses requiring the waterat the airport are prepared to putdown deposits, pay initial starterfees and pay higher than usualprices for water access at the air-port, even if the water comesthrough a garden hose. These busi-nesses are trying to work with thecity, but someone has broken thepadlock on the hydrant at the air-port. It was stated that tamperingwith a rural water system is a fed-eral offense and in turn the airportis also a federally funded facility. The city crew will work with thebusinesses to make metered wateravailable at the airport. A morepermanent solution will be lookedinto for next year, which will haveto be budgeted for any boring,trenching, larger piping or what-ever is needed. Building permits approved bythe council include Christine An-drus renewing a fence permit, andRon and Laurie Mann for a con-crete sidewalk and pad. An accessroad permit for D&T Auto Parts,Dale Morrison, is currently tabledwaiting for a determination as towhether the state or city has per-mitting rights. Currently the stateis reviewing documentation filedagainst several properties in thearea. The Wood Avenue and WaldenAvenue utility and street improve-ment project is in progress. “Roughfirst week, but going fairly smoothnow,” said Matt Reckling, Philippublic works director. The city willpick up the cost of replacing a leadwater line that went to the prop-erty edge of the Lutheran Church.The rest of the line going to thechurch is copper. The street depart-ment budget will be used to pay forrepairing cracks in the asphaltoverlay at the intersection of Hone

Street and N. Wood Avenue. Notices of intent toward grantapplications are progressing con-cerning the Philip Trails project.More information would be avail-able at the trails meeting Wednes-day, May 8, at the Philip Ambu-lance Building. Landowners who want to buildstock dams are asking to purchaserip-rap from the city’s concretestock pile at the south shop. Thecity will sell the old material, withthe city loading it at $50 per loadat the city’s convenience and thepurchaser signing a waiver of lia-bility. The council approved 2013 swim-ming pool personnel and theirsalaries. Additional lifeguards willbe hired as necessary. The pool’santicipated opening date is May 30.Rates for swimming passes are thesame as last season. Howard Pih-laja has founded a Swim For Lifeprogram where kids ages seventhrough 12 can apply for free swim-ming lessons and then seasonpasses at the pool. The contact per-son is Bobby Sloat. “We commendHoward’s generosity,” said FinanceOfficer Monna Van Lint.

HOSTA Training South Dakota State Universitywill be hosting 4 Hazardous Occu-pation Safety Training in Agricul-ture (HOSTA) sessions this springthroughout South Dakota. HOSTA is a program whichaims to educate South Dakotayouth about the dangers associ-ated with working on a farm orranch. The law states that youth14 to 15 years old must completethe HOSTA training to work on afarm or ranch for anyone otherthan their parents. Youth who areemployed on their home farm ex-empt from the rule. When youthbecome 16 years of age, this law nolonger applies. Youth who areworking on their family farm arestill encouraged to attend. Agricultural is the only industryin the United States that allowsyouth under the age of 16 to beconsidered a legal employee. Thatand the fact that farming/ ranch-ing is considered one of the 10most dangerous jobs, it is evidentthat we must educate youth aboutdangers on farms and ranches forthe safety of themselves and oth-ers. The number one way to pre-vent farm accidents is by educat-ing about possible dangers andgiving students the knowledge toasses a situation for hazards. Forthis reason, all youth ages 14-16are strongly encouraged to attend. Dates and locations of the train-ing will be: •Brookings on May 28 at 10:00a.m. (CT) in Ag Engineering build-ing, room 125. •Aberdeen on May 29 at 10:30a.m. (CT) at the Aberdeen Re-gional Extension Center •Winner on May 30 at 10:00a.m. (CT) at the Winner RegionalExtension Center •Gettysburg on June 3 at 10:00a.m. (CT) at the C&B operationsJohn Deere dealership All locations have a minimumrequirement of six students pre-registered by Friday, May 24, at4:00 p.m. If a location does nothave six students pre-registered bythe deadline, that session will becancelled. The safety training will consistof classroom instruction, and adriving test. Students are expectedto study the 48 core tasks sheets

prior to the classroom session. Awritten exam will be given overthe 48 core task sheets, whichmust be passed with a minimum of75 percent correct for the studentto advance to the driving portion ofthe training. The task sheets canbe found at: http:// www.sdstate.edu/abe/extension/hosta/task-sheets/index.cfm To register for the HOSTAsafety training course, contact NicUilk at [email protected] (605) 688-5675 or Candy Willmsat (605) 688-5141. Those attendingthe Winner training can also con-tact The Winner Regional Exten-sion Center, 842-1267.Cedar Trees Turning Brown?

Cedar trees are turning brownin south-central South Dakota.Much of the problem has been at-tributed to cedar bark beetles thatare attacking trees that have beenstressed from the drought. If treesare otherwise healthy, the trunksand larger branches can besprayed with carbaryl or perme-thrin by June 1 to control the bee-tles. The effectiveness of insecti-cide applications on severelystressed trees is highly question-able.

During the demolition of a build-

ing next to one of the Midland Pio-

neer Museum display buildings,

the Midland Volunteer Fire De-

partment’s antique hose and chem-

ical carts were damaged. Other

items stored in the structure also

received major damage.

There was discussion was to

trash the carts, but the department

intended to restore them. The carts

were totally dismantled. The

wheels were sent to an Amish com-

munity for rebuilding. Reconstruc-

tion began, involving many hours

of heating, pressing, straightening,

sand blasting and cleaning.

During the restoration process, a

large amount of painted over brass

was discovered. The brass compo-

nents were weighed, totaling well

over 140 pounds. Approximately

112 pounds of brass was on the

chemical cart. The brass was

cleaned before the reassembly of

the carts.

The final touches included paint-

ing, adding a few fittings and re-

placing the hose.

The carts are now back on dis-

play in the renovated building.

These carts were purchased in the

1920s by the Midland Volunteer

Fire Department and have been

pulled in several parades, one

being the state fire school parade in

Pierre.

Still time to put your thinkingcaps on and come up with a specialcard for Mother’s Day or just lend-ing a helping hand where needed.Mother’s don’t require a lot of giftsas much as just being appreciatedfor all they have done. Thanks,Mom. Here it is May already. May Daywas last Wednesday. Did anybodydeliver May baskets? That used tobe a special day and it seemed thatdandelions and blue bells wereabundant, so I remember pickingthose and any other colorful wildflower and trying to surprise Momwith a May basket made by rollinga page from a magazine or cataloginto a cone shape and putting inthe flowers, one was made forGrandma Grace, Grandma Loui-son, Veryl and Helen Louison andthe teacher. The whole goal was totry to leave the flowers withoutbeing caught and it would be a sur-prise. Really hard to do since youhad to drive to get to those places,but they were on the way to school. Tony Harty got the mail Mondayand had dinner out. He spent agood share of the day callingfriends and relatives about the lossof his sister, Theresa. He attendedthe track meet in the afternoon. Monday in Madison dawned acool 34˚ but soon warmed up to bea pleasant day with not muchwind. Carly Nighbert, little great-grandson Jaxon’s momma, broughtthe little guy to spend the after-noon with Bill and me while shekept an appointment. Little JaxonMay was a good little fellow andthe weather was so nice we playedon the swing set and he evengrabbed the fishing pole andhelped grandpa fish, he’s just ninemonths old. That evening, we en-tertained in the motorhome forsupper and got in visiting withChase and Carly. George and Sandee Gittingswere in Pierre Monday so thatGeorge could see his doctor therefor some followup tests. Tusday, Tony Harty went out forcoffee and spent the rest of the daygetting his van in good running

order for the trip to Valentine, Neb.He visited with his niece, KathyBrown, about the pending services. Don and Vi Moody left Tuesdayfor a stay at their Rapid Valleyhome as Don had an appointmentWednesday at the heart doctors inRapid City and they ran some testson his legs to find that everythingwas in fine order. Sympathy is extended to thefamilies of Harriet Noteboom,Pauline Schofield and Marion Ole-sen who all passed away this pastweek. Tuesday, Bill and I scurriedaround getting the news on theroad to the paper. Since there wasno Internet service we had to findsome in downtown Madison.Granddaughter Amanda Claflinwas in Madison for the day andwatched Jaxon while Carly wasbusy with some testing that took agood share of the morning, afterthat was over they all came to themotorhome to visit. It was a cooland brisk day, but no snow or rain,for which we were thankful.Amanda brought a stroller for us touse while Jaxon was visiting, buttwo stray cats took up residence init while not being used. Chasejoined Carly and Jaxon for supperin our home on wheels andAmanda returned back to Harris-burg, picking up husband Adam onthe way through Colman at his job. Wednesday, Tony Harty was onthe road early to Valentine, Neb.,for the services of sister TheresaHackenbary. He returned homethat evening, having supper alongthe way. Wednesday, we awoke to 24˚, Billtried to get some fish to bite inLake Herman and was successfulbut the line broke, need a heavierline. We visited at the Chase Mayhome and had supper with them.The high was 58˚ and spitting a lit-tle rain, but Chase grilled steaksfor us. He said he has the grill outand even snow wasn’t going to keephim from grilling. Chase goes towork very early, so we didn’t staytoo late. Tony Harty was out for mail and

coffee Thursday. He reported if wedidn’t get home soon he may haveto mow the yard, that was just anidol threat though, the grass isn’tgrowing that fast. Thursday, Vi and Don Moodyhad an excuse to drive the scenicroute again in the Black Hills sinceDon had a chiropractor appoint-ment in Sturgis for a back adjust-ment. They are working out a greatexercise program that is workingout very well physically and enter-taining by walking around shop-ping malls. Might as well stay inwhere it's warm to go to the largerstores. One doctor told Vi that oneretail outlet is like going to thegymnasium and it doesn't have afee included. Thursday, Bill and I pulled out ofthe campsite in Madison and wentto Sioux Falls and settled in for afew days. The first order of busi-ness was to get a new water pumpfor the motorhome, and to ponderhow the water coming into the toi-let could look the color of black shoepolish!

Mary E. Jones__________________ Time flies and Paula Volgels-gang is proof of that. She has beenputting out a newsletter on how topinch the penny, make “stone soup”taste good – well not really, butcook and stretch your budget for 21years now. Paula and I sat at thepig sale week after week discussinghow to stretch the little moneyavailable and still live good. Ofcourse, it always helps if you wereaccustomed to “recycling” such ashand me down clothes, gardening,canning and all the things our par-ents and grandparents alreadyknew. I hauled a load of grain tothe elevator and Don Abby pickeda piece of masking tape off myblouse that said five cents and won-dered if that was all I was worth.Anyway, Paula said she had thisidea to write a newsletter to tellothers how to save money, and bygolly she did it. “Pennywise” is nowgetting to be well known as well asPaula. Good job girl. Friday morning early, Bill and Ipicked up Eli and he spent the daywith us while Eric was at work andChaciel was working on her finals.In the afternoon, Bill went to helpAdam Claflin work on some carprojects, (Amanda was at work).Then Adam picked up littlenephew Jaxon, meeting Chase andCarly part way. We all gathered atthe home of Eric Seager for a pizzasupper. Don and Vi Moody returned tothe ranch Saturday and they hadfun shopping in Kadoka (their littlemall) and stopped in for a visit withJerry and Joanne Stilwell at themotel. Vi wanted to make sure thatJoanne's sister, Barbara Arends,knew about the class reunion andit was a very fun and jovial visit tocatch up on latest news. PaulRoghair, Kadoka, visited Vi andDon Moody Saturday afternoonand has been around the ranchquite often this past week getting

exercise also for his summer joband doing a bit of turkey hunting.Don and Paul shared a lot of visit-ing about all their wildlife calls.Lloyd Steckleberg, former presi-dent of Frontier Ford, in Rapid Cityand all those guys that Don workedwith for eight years or so and whoused to hunt at the Moody ranch,gave Don several electronic wildlifecalls. Don had a few coyotes in pastyears almost too close. One thingabout that is, turkeys love to talkand they roost so close to the damnear the house – that one missedhis roost on a tree and fell into thedugout full of water. He was toowet to fly to the roost so spent thenight drying out. The next morningVi had turkey tracks on the trunkof her car! Time for a Thanksgivingmeal! Lucky bird though got awaywith it! Vi wrote, “It's so springtimein the air now and everyone shouldtake advantage of all the sightsand sounds of this time of the year.Grass is finally getting greener andwe hope it can continue to grow inabundance.” Saturday was another day at therodeo grounds for Tony watchingthe events. From here the groupmoved to Burke to finish the finalevents. He visited Kathy Brown af-terwards. Saturday, Aviana, who is eight,fixed pancakes for Bill and me aswell as her great-grandpa, Alex Ko-scielski, and little brother, Elia,and her mom, then she came tospend the day with us in the mo-torhome. It was a drippy day, sonot much fun for her. Eric had aweekend with the guards, so wasfortunate to be home in theevening. He grilled a BBQ supperwhich we enjoyed, along with Cha-ciel’s folks, Wade and Susan Hove-land, grandpa Alex and two nieces,Tianna and Addisyon, and Adamand Amanda Claflin and JaxonMay.

Cathy Fiedler reported it was acool week but nice in the Sturgisarea. Things are starting to greenup slowly. They have new neigh-bors to the west who have beenthere a week. These neighbors arehere to stay because they boughtthe trailer. Cathy worked with herat the nursing home, she was anurse and now retired. Sunday,Ralph and Cathy went to Spearfishto attend church and see grand-daughter Tessa confirmed. Afterchurch, they joined the Don Klumbfamily and Eric Hanson family at alocal café for lunch before goinghome. Sunday following church, TonyHarty went out for dinner and inthe afternoon niece Kathy Brownand Jed brought the four new pup-pies out for some sunshine andfresh air. Tony enjoyed pettingthem. Just fair warning, springmust be officially here, Tony brokeout his shorts and sandals! Sunday, we visited at the Claflinhome and Bill and Adam worked atgetting the refrigerator adjusted alittle better. Amanda and I werebusy making a little craft projectsince she is so handy at things, andChaciel brought Eli over to playwith his cousin, Jaxon, before hereturned to Madison and the wait-ing arms of his folks, Chase andCarly. Bill and I visited later in theday at the Eric Seager home, andthis great-grandma got to give Elihis nighttime bath. Well, I’m sureyou're all about tired out with allthis great-grandbaby stuff, how-ever, we feel really blessed to beable to spend quality time with thegrandchildren and great-grandchil-dren. The nice thing about visiting,you can give the little ones back tothe parents after spoiling them! “Life is a steep grade, and weshould welcome every opportunityto give our friends a lift when theyneed it.” Daysies

Because of having a doctor’s ap-pointment Monday, I am trying toget some news done this Sundayevening. Monday is the main day Iwork on my local news column, soI don’t like having appointments onMonday, but sometimes it can’t behelped. Not sure what I will getgathered up for this week, but willdo my best. Sunday was anotherone of those nice spring days. Forthe past week or so, nighttime tem-peratures have been in the teens to20s. And because of that theground doesn’t have a chance towarm up. The weather report forthis week is for temperatures inthe mid 40s at night and in the 70sduring the day. That would be agood thing, a chance for the earthto warm up, giving a boost togrowth and some rains would be anice addition. Tourists are on themove, as traffic has picked up on I-

90. Remember the two-lane roadbefore I-90 came to be? With thetraffic on that road today, it makesyou thankful that road is no longera two-lane highway. Memorial Dayweekend seems to be the seriousstart of the tourist season. Schoolsare out and families are off on aplanned family trip. The Fosheim-Schofield familyreunion scheduled for June 8 hasbeen postponed to a later date.With two deaths in the family in ashort time there have been a lot offamily travels back and forth toMidland. While having a bite to eatand a time of visiting following thefuneral service for PaulineSchofield, family got a call fromPierre telling that Joe Fosheim wasnot doing well. So, some of the fam-ily were going to make a trip toPierre. The family reunion has notbeen canceled, it has just been

postponed for the time being. Ourthoughts and prayers are withthose families who have beenthrough so much. A report from Micaela on hermom, Alice (Donovan) Venner,Pierre. “March 29, Good Friday,Alice turned 84. All of her childrengathered to help her celebrate thisspecial day and the Easter holiday.She was blessed with three won-derful days, she felt well enough toparticipate in cake, gifts andEaster dinner. She much enjoyedthe birthday cards and memoriespeople shared with her. The lastmonths have brought changes, upsand downs, Mom is such a trooper,she never complains.” Our prayersand thoughts continue to be withAlice and her family during thisjourney with its ups and downs. Judy Daly visited her mom,Marie Anderson, at the SilverleafAssisted Living Center in Philip,taking her out for lunch at a localrestaurant. When you see Marie,you would never guess her age, sheis one of those people who haveaged gracefully, always looking herbest. Roy and Carol Hunt, KeithHunt and Christine Niedan headed

for Murdo early Saturday morningpicking up Teresa Palmer and fromthere it was off to Brookings. Theirnephew, Chad Johnson, son ofRoger and Peg Johnson, Pierre,was graduating from South DakotaState University Saturday. Due tothe huge graduating class, a lim-ited number of family memberswere able to attend the graduation.They went to the reception forChad as did Roger’s siblings, Ron-nie, Bruce and Judy, and their fam-ilies. Congratulations, Chad! Saturday, April 27, Clint andPrerry Saucerman were at thehome of Mark and Glenda Nemec,Hill City, for their 40th weddinganniversary. Mark and Glenda’sfamily able to be there were StaceyNemec and Beth Hand and fourkids, all of Pierre, and Ellie and TelSaucerman and four kids of RapidCity. Jackie and David Good Shieldand two boys were unable to bethere, but were able to be a part ofthe program put on by the familythrough modern technology.Jackie, David and family live inAjo, Ariz. Later in the day, therewas a birthday party for Emma. Ican’t believe Emma is 11 years old.When you don’t see those kids for awhile, time seems to slip away.Congratulations to Mark andGlenda and birthday wishes toEmma. Clint, Prerry and WilmaSaucerman were in Rapid CityMonday, Clint and Wilma havingdoctor appointments. They hadsupper with Tel, Ellie and familyand another birthday party forEmma, whose birthday is April 30. Afterwards, Clint, Prerry andWilma went to the home of Devlonand Noel Volhken and family hav-ing a chance to see their new home.Noel is Wilma’s granddaughter.May 3, Clint and Prerry made an-other trip to Rapid City stayingovernight with son Tel and EllieSaucerman and family. They got inon two of their granddaughter,Emma’s softball games Friday andSaturday. Their grandson, eight-year-old Sawyer, had a soccer gameSaturday, so were able to see thatas well.

Time to close my column for thisweek. This Tuesday morning thesky is overcast and folks hoping forrain? Our daughter-in-law,Stephanie, took her mom, BarbaraVan Oorschot, to the Sioux Fallsairport Monday. Barbara and littleLaura had some bonding time tomake up for those times of beingapart. Barbara is a gentle spirit,Laura will miss Grandma Barbara.On this journey I call ‘life’ it takesus on some roller-coaster rides ofmixed emotions. I recently read ofa man by the name of HoratioGates Spafford. He was a deeplyspiritual man, but like Job, thatfaith was tested. He and his wifehad five children, four girls and aboy. He had a successful law prac-tice in Chicago just after the CivilWar. His young son died of pneu-monia and he lost all of his prop-erty and wealth in the GreatChicago Fire. His wife and fourgirls were on a ship to visit afriend. Spafford had some things totake care of so would be cominglater. Spafford lost all four girls ina shipwreck, his wife survived.Hethought he could not bear any morepain. But, through faith he realizedhe would see his children again.Praying with a heart full of thathope, he uttered, “Whatever my lot,it is well with my soul.” Philip P.Bliss composed a tune to accom-pany Spafford’s poem, “Whenpeace, like a river, attendeth myway. When sorrows like sea billowsroll. Whatever my lot, Thou hasttaught me to say, It is well, it iswell with my soul.” Our prayers arewith those who are going throughdifficult times. God bless!

Construction Zone Safety

Rosebud Concrete has begun construction on Wood Avenue.

This project is estimated to take upwards of seven months

to complete. During this time we strongly encourage resi-

dents to please be aware of the safety hazards in and

around the work zones.

Heavy equipment attracts curious little ones and with the warmer weather and summer just around the corner,

we would also like to ask parents to strongly caution their children of the dangers of

playing in or near these work zones.

We appreciate your extra care and diligence during this construction season.

Have a safe summer!– City of Philip

Want to keep your kids cool andoccupied at the same time? Take aplastic container and fill it half orso full of water. Let the kids collectitems to put in the water. Theitems can be toys, flowers, sticks,anything as long as it isn’t break-able or something valuable. Thenfreeze the items in the water.When solid, take the containeroutside, remove block and let thekids figure out how to get theiritems out of the block of ice. Hope-fully the kids will explore differentways of trying to remove the ob-jects, such as using tools, puttingit in the sun, putting it in somewater, etc. Sounds like fun on ahot day.

Charcoal briquettes are naturallyodor and moisture absorbent. Theycan be placed in many areasaround the house to help withthese issues. They can be placed inan old sock, or a coffee can withholes punched in it, if you don’twant to leave them as is. Makesure to use the ones that don’thave any additives for easy light-ing.

,.

Magic Garden6 Tbsp. salt6 Tbsp. water1 Tbsp. ammonia5-6 charcoal briquettesFood coloringGlass container

Mix salt, water and ammonia to-gether in large bowl. Put the char-coal in a glass container and pourmixture over it. Sprinkle charcoalwith food coloring and set in awarm place. Your garden will

grow till the liquid is absorbed.,.

What’s summer without bub-bles? Kids, parents, and even somedogs love ‘em! A fun idea for lots oflittle bubbles is to bind severaldrinking straws together, dip oneend into the bubble solution andblow. Just make sure if using withlittle children that they don’t suckon the straws!

,.

A fun activity that will keepkids busy is for them to find ob-jects. This can be done inside oroutside. It can be used to learn col-ors, shapes, i.e. a rock with blackin it, something that is round. Oryou can take specific objects andhide them.

,.

Another hot day activity is tomake water balls out of sponges.You will need 1/2”x2 3/4”x4 1/4”sponges – 3 perball. Cut 4 to 5strips from eachsponge. Stack thestrips in 3 layers,alternating colors

if you want. Securethe middle withstring or rubber-bands. Soak inwater and let thefun begin.

Greetings from beautiful, warm,slightly green, dry northeastHaakon County. The birds aresinging, the Nanking cherries arestarting to bloom, and the cattleare hunting grass. Our nighttimetemperatures have been stayingpretty low, so the grass hasn'ttaken off as we had hoped. The pre-diction of warmer temperaturesand chances of rain showers thisweek will hopefully start to remedythat situation. Last week, I was rushing to get

the news submitted prior to aplanned power outage here onRobb's Flat. In my haste, I neg-lected to mention what I was grate-ful for. After the power came backon, it was too late to be included inthe column. So here is last week'sgratitude statement – This week, Iam grateful for the color green. Inthe spring, as the grass turns greenand the countryside is showingsigns of life, it just seems to lifteveryone's spirits! Next will comegreen leaves, then green vegetables

growing in the garden. The alfalfa,wheat, and other crops will begreen as they grow to maturity.And all of the green will translateinto feed for livestock, food for hu-mans, and food for the soul – andall will be well with the world, sortof. This week, I want to wish ahappy birthday to our neighbor,Marge Briggs. Her special day isMay 8, and I hope she has a won-derful day. Marge is an amazinglady, spending a large portion ofeach day reading and learning. Ifyou have the good fortune to visitwith her, you will find that she is awealth of information, especiallyregarding health and nutrition.And she generally has some useful

gardening tips, also! The garden at our house is pro-ducing quite a bit of asparagus,and I'll start harvesting winteronions later this week. Therhubarb is growing, but not veryfast. I planted some early seasonvegetables last week, so theyshould be popping through the soilsoon. The tulips are beginning tobloom – such a cheerful sight in theflower beds. The dandelions arealso blooming, and even their yel-low flowers are a cheery sight afterall the brown we saw this winter. Frank and Shirley Halligan werein Ft. Pierre Saturday evening toattend the "Night on the Town"event – an annual fundraiser forthe youth center there. Shirley saidit was a Hollywood theme, so therewas lots of glitz and glamor to beseen. Sunday, Shirley attendedchurch, then she and Frank tookKen Halligan out for Sunday lunch.In the afternoon, they did yardwork at their house in Ft. Pierre. Dick and Gene Hudson brandedsome cattle Saturday. Lee Briggshelped with the branding, andMary Briggs joined the group forlunch and visiting. Last Thursday, Duane and LolaRoseth attended the livestock saleat Belle Fourche. During the sale,Lola slipped over to Spearfish tovisit with Sarah Neuhauser whomanages a pharmacy there. Sarahgrew up in our community and wasa classmate of Duane and Lola'sson, Rhett. Saturday, Lola was inRapid City to assist with stateEMT testing.

The organization of a golf club inPhilip has been underway for thepast several weeks and at the pres-ent time seems to be progressing infine shape. Twenty-five membershave been procured and thearrangements have been made tohave a course laid out and madeready for use. A tract of land be-longing to George Nelson just northof Philip has been leased, RobertNewcomb of Kadoka has been en-gaged to survey and lay out thegrounds and work will be started atonce on the greens.

*** The three act play, “Welcome ToThe Old Home Town,” to be stagedat the Gem Theatre, May 15th and16th, by the Philip Dramatic Club,is a rollicking comedy. Humorousand fascinationg situations followeach other in rapid succession.

*** The May 4, Sunday, edition ofthe Sioux Falls Daily Argus-Leadercarried a picture of the railroaddepot platform at Philip showing avery ordinary accumulation ofcream cans. There are approxi-mately two hundred cans in sight,when many of us on busy dayshave seen twice that numberstacked on the Philip platform.But, after all, the picture is verygood, and very homelike, and it isfollowed by this account of ourcream shipping industry. “Anyone who thinks the “cowcountry” around Philip producesonly beef for the butcher, can takea look any day at the cream cans onthe Chicago and North Westernstation platform here and see thatit is a big dairy country.” “Philip claims the distinction ofbeing the largest cream shippingstation on the Chicago and NorthWestern between Rapid City andthe Minnesota line. It also claims,with two exceptions, to be thelargest cream shipping station inthe state of South Dakota.” “According to official figures fromthe traffic department of theChicago and North Western Rail-way, there was shipped from Philipduring 1928, $132,595 worth ofcream, which averaged to the farm-ers during the entire year 45.62cents per pound butterfat. Therewere 11,530 cans and approxi-mately 115,020 gallons of cream.”


Bobby, 8 year old son of Mr. andMrs. Clinton Neville, Milesville,suffered a cracked upper jaw whenhe was thrown from his pony lastThursday morning. The pony ran under a clotheslinewire and the wire caught Bobby inthe mouth, throwing him to theground. He was brought to Philip,where he was treated by DoctorsRichardson and Driver. From Mil-seville News – (Both sinus boneswere broke, also his jaw bone and atooth knocked out.)

*** The new 1938 Chevrolet belong-ing to William Crowser, Dowling,turned over near the Henry Burjesplace north of Hilland Saturdayevening, with only slight injuries toits three occupants. BessieCrowser, who is a student in Philiphigh school, was the driver. The cargot out of control when it struck adeep rut. With her were herbrother, Lee, and Charles Price.

*** A movement is under way whichwould give Philip a golf courseagain, if it is successful. The beau-tiful site along Grindstone Creekeast of town looks more promisingthis spring than it has for manyyears and the golf fans are gettingimpatient to get started. A total of110 acres are included on the prop-erty of two different land owners. Grindstone News … Mrs. EdFarrell burned her fingers severelylast week, but bathing them in asolution of tannic acid healed themrapidly and they have given her lit-tle trouble. She had been bakingdoughnuts, and in the confusionthat attends getting a meal, somethe dish or pan started to fall offthe stove and things began tippingright and left. To keep the hotgrease from spilling all over her,Mrs. Farrell clutched the skilletwith her hand, four fingers goinginto the grease. Local Briefs … About seventyneighbors and friends went to theErnest Clements home in the coun-try Sunday for a basket dinner onthe occasion of the 22nd weddinganniversary for Mr. and Mrs.Clements. There was a baseballgame in the afternoon and an en-joyable day was reported.


Births … April 2, girl, SondraLee, to Mr. and Mrs. Charles D.Kroetch. April 3, girl, Dianne Lyn, to Mr.and Mrs. Paul Wittler. April 17, boy, Timothy Paul, toMr. and Mrs. Martin Nelson. April 27, boy, Russell Warren, toMr. and Mrs. Richard Baye.

The news may be a little short asI have been gadding around andwas not home to call people. The Eide family had a family gettogether at Marvin and Vickie’sover the weekend. Carla Eide andfamily were at Marvin’s Saturday,May 4, so several gathered for anoon meal and we went to Philipand brought pizza out for supper.More showed up and Vicki grilledand with salads and other dishesthere was a lot to eat. There were11 kids plus and eight adults, so wewere out numbered, but it onlytakes a few to boss the kids aroundso no one gets hurt. Those presentto enjoy the day of good food andvisiting were Carla Eide, Kiley andTaegan Sieler, Mike, Alissa, Austinand Aidyn Huddleston, Gillette,Wyo., Trevor, Christa, Braydan,Keagan, Colby, Jensen, Rayler andAven Fitch, Rita Ramsey and MaryEide. The kids played most of theday outdoors and were a tiredbunch as the day ended. Mary Eide, Kiley Sieler andColby Fitch went to Donnie andDelores Poss’ for a short visit Sat-urday afternoon. Kiley likes to gosee them when she is here and theyare very special people in her life.She likes to go and help Donniemove cattle and ride his horseswhen she comes to grandma andgrandpa Eide’s for summer vaca-tion. Donnie and Deloris helpedKiley with barrel racing last yearby lending her a horse and takingthe horse to different events in thearea for her to use. Poss’ are stillbusy with their baby calves. Carla and kids and Huddlestonsleft Sunday afternoon. Carla andthe kids stopped in to visit great-grandmother Dorothy Urban at thenursing home before going home. Many from the area enjoyed thebuffet and salad bar luncheon atLake Waggoner Golf Course May 5.There are so many who play golf inthis area and enjoy golfing thereand also enjoy the meals and visit-ing. It has been cool and chilly withthe winds blowing even though thetemperatures have not been socold. As I look outside, I don’t seeany snow anywhere now and there

is some green grass showing up. Ireally was not warm enough forthings, so they are late gettingstarted. Some of the ranchersaround here have been plantingcrops, but as for Marvin, he has notplanted anything yet. He will prob-ably plant cow feed when he doesplant. He has been busy fixingfence. Grandsons, Colby, Braydenand Jensen, were down to helphim. We are still in desperate need ofmoisture and the weatherman saysthat we need five inches to evencatch up and give us some submoisture. But it does sound like wemight get some rain this week, sokeep praying and don’t forget togive thanks for what we have re-ceived. Marcy Ramsey is spending timewith her mother, Vi Olney, whohad been in the Philip swing-bed,but has been sent on to Rapid City.Please keep them on your prayerlist. I stopped for a visit at NormaOldenberg’s and she, with otherhelpers, were working in her yard.Many have a lot of work to do afterthe drought from last year. Somelawns need to be reseeded. Thosewho have wells managed to keeptheir lawns green. I was surprised at how manypeople from the 55 to 65 age groupin this area stopped and told mehow they enjoyed my story aboutJohn Cowen. I was also surprisedat how many folks had invited himto stay for meals at their homesand many times. They related howthey enjoyed his stories and his vis-its. He must have had more friendsthan we ever knew he had. So much beauty can be seenwhen spring makes her debut. What more of pleasure could oneseek, than to loll around any day ofthe week, sometimes in the shadeand take in all the wonders Godhas made. Red roses in the flowerbeds, have taken on a deeper shadeand other flowers of every hue arekept afresh with the morning dew.Me I am still in awe of the magicspell that only God can make – LouGullipher

As the spring progresses, SouthDakota producers are being facedwith critical decisions that will af-fect their operations for years tocome say officials with the NaturalResources Conservation Service. The United States Drought Mon-itor shows some improvement, butdrought conditions persist formuch of South Dakota. NRCSrangeland management specialistsare urging farmers and ranchers totake a close look at the health oftheir grassland. “Based on rainfallamounts received last fall, currentand predicted precipitation, forageproduction will be taking a prettybig hit this year,” said Stan Boltz,NRCS state rangeland manage-ment specialist, Huron. Forage production on grasslandis affected by soil moisture and pre-cipitation timing and amounts.Last year’s drought stressed grass-land vegetation. Moisture is impor-tant in the fall, but April, May andJune precipitation is a big factor.“It appears to me that even withthe April 2013 snow and rain, rightnow we are looking at a 60 to 70percent of normal grassland forageproduction for much of the state,especially the western half,” saidBoltz. “I hate to say it, but whatthat means for livestock producersis possibly implementing droughtcontingency options involving sig-nificant herd reductions and de-creasing stocking rates to avoiddamaging pastures further,” hesaid. “With last month’s snow storms,it’s hard to think about the soil pro-file not having enough moisture tosustain a healthy plant commu-nity,” said Boltz. “Even if normalrainfall comes the next twomonths, the grassland resourcewill produce about a third less for-

age this year.” Livestock producers should bereassessing spring growth in theirpastures and their stocking rate forthe condition of their water andgrassland resources. Grazingdrought stressed pastures too soonand with too many animals reducesforage production in the long termbecause the plants lose their abilityto regenerate themselves explainedBoltz. “Over grazing also opens thedoor for less desirable plants to be-come established.” On site farm and ranch resourceconsultations are free of chargefrom the NRCS. “We can help youdetermine the current condition ofyour pastures, estimated forageproduction projected through July2013 based on your operation’ssoils and conditions, and howgrasslands will be impacted withvarious scenarios,” said Boltz. Up-dated drought contingency plan-ning guidance is also online athttp://www.sd.nrcs.usda.gov/tech-nical/Range_Pasture.html. Ensuring a healthy reserve anddiversity of forage in their pasturesenables better moisture infiltrationand retention in the soil profilethat benefits operations in thelong-term. “We want that rain to gointo the soil, not run off,” saidBoltz. By evaluating the percent ofnormal forage expected to be pro-duced, farmers and ranchers canfeel better about difficult herdmanagement decisions as theymake adjustments to their opera-tion early in the growing season.“No one likes what is happening,and the way 2013 is shaping up,producers should be seriously re-viewing the health of their pas-tures and rethinking their grazingstrategies for the year,” said Boltz.
