Happy 94th!Bud Geer and his twin sister Meredith (Geer) Kummerfeldt celebrated their 94th birthday yesterday at Valley View Home, although their birthday is actually this Friday, September 18th. They were born on a farm outside of New London, Minnesota, two months early: Meredith weighing three-and-a-half pounds, Bud weighing four pounds. They grew up on the farm with a younger brother until they were 13 years old. When the Great Depression hit the nation and times were

tough, that is how they ended up here as the family moved to Park Grove where their father worked on building the Fort Peck Dam. So, while a lot of bad things can be said about the "Dirty Thirties", had it not been for the construction of the Fort Peck Dam, we would have never gotten to know Bud and Meredith (and many more good folks that migrated here and stuck around for good after construction was complete). Happy 94th to Bud and Meredith on Friday!

A lot of people are getting really excited about the upcoming visit by Pope Francis. This Pope is very popular, but I saw that in a recent interview, he said that he’s felt “used” by certain people who only pay attention to him when they need something. Then God was like, “Um, hello! That's like 99 percent of my day!” ~ Jimmy Fallon

Business conventions are important because theydemonstrate how many people a company canoperate without.

I was a brand new Navy Ensign reporting to my ship off the coast of Italy. My first job was to lead a division of Boatswain Mates who were responsible for maintaining the topside equipment on the aircraft carrier: anchors, chains, lifeboats and various mechanical gear. Straight out of the U.S. Naval Academy, I was green. Upon pleasantly meeting my ‘Chief ’ Petty Officer who reported to me, but being nearly twice my age, he actually supervised the men in our division, I asked him to brief me on the status of the sailors, our schedule, our maintenance, our routine. “Everything’s great, sir!” said Chief. “Great!” I responded, “I’d like you to show me.” Now, the response that my Chief Petty Officer gave me was so laden with profanity that I cannot print here. His perception that some brand new officer shouldn’t come in and demand verification of our readiness wasn’t completely baseless. After all, I had yet to earn the trust of my division. Still, I had a job to do. Over the next days and weeks, as Chief and I systematically reviewed all the responsibilities that our division was tasked with, we found not only several things to fix, but uncovered some critical repair issues that required informing people above our paygrade—because

our ship’s mission was compromised. Everything was not ‘great’. But we became stronger, better, because we didn’t accept the status quo. Trust, but verify. Earlier this month I announced that I was running for Montana’s open seat for Secretary of State. And when I criticized our retiring Secretary of State’s office for being nonchalant and silent as to why 52,000 Montana voters were removed earlier this year, her response reminded me of that boatswain’s mate. Now, to be sure, the Secretary of State isn’t subordinate to anybody—certainly not to me. Her eventual response to a reporter at National Public Radio was that she didn’t need to communicate this historic removal of 52,000 voters because it was “clerical, not political.” Really?! How are the people supposed to know the context of such an historic removal of voters if our Secretary of State isn’t proactive in explaining what just happened? And how do we remain vigilant about the integrity of our elections if that kind of information is withheld from the general population? We’re going to make some changes if I’m elected Montana’s Secretary of State. I’m going to publish an annual ‘State of the Sec. of State’ report that communicates to all Montanans meaningful data regarding the integrity of our elections, voters, and voting laws. While each of our county election offices is responsible for their county, it’s vital that our Secretary of State communicate on behalf of all counties on voting trends, voter removal, issues of fraud, statewide turnout and ramifications of the Electoral College for Presidential elections. The people deserve to know what’s going on. By the way, the number of inactive Montana voters removed this two-year cycle was about 12,000 more than last cycle. I attribute this to one-time voters in the 2008 Presidential election who never voted again, and were removed in 2015 from our active voting list. I thought you should know. Corey Stapleton is a former naval officer and state senator from Billings. He is running for the Republican nomination for Montana Secretary of State.

The Hinsdale Public School has been participating in a Farm to School project since 2009. The project started with five cherry tomato plants for the school lunch program. It continued to expand such that last year the Ag-Ed and K-12 students grew 85% of the produce for the school's salad bar from the middle of August to the middle of November. This Saturday and Sunday, the Hinsdale School and Community are looking for volunteers to help with the raising of the first high tunnel. A high

tunnel, often called a hoophouse, is an unheated greenhouse to aid in fruit and vegetable crop production by extending the cropping season, providing protection from the elements and result in a more stable production system with less risk of crop failure. Volunteers are welcome to come help with this worthy project this Saturday and Sunday, September 19th and 20th. The property is located on the north edge of Hinsdale. For more information please contact Patti Armbrister at 406-648-7400.

Looking for volunteers to help in HinsdaleHinsdale students will be constructing a loophouse similar to this and would love to have some volunteers come and help this Saturday and Sunday.

The Solid Finances webinar series is gearing up for another year. Some big changes have been made to improve the series. The biggest revision is that the series is now jointly sponsored by South Dakota State University Extension, University of Idaho Extension and Montana State University Extension. This new multi-state format will bring new expertise to the series to better serve you. The 2015-2016 Solid Finances schedule will consist of 18 sessions, with the first session on October 7th. The first 12 sessions will focus on issues for residents of all three states. The final six sessions will focus on issues specific to participants from each state. Solid Finances will feature 10 different presenters sharing their expertise and answering your questions. Carrie Johnson (SDSU Extension) will open the series on October 7th by addressing Saving Money & Finding Spending Leaks. Luke Erickson (UI Extension) will lead the next two sessions on Home Buying and Emergency Savings. Nancy Porter will wrap up October by addressing Financial Records Organization: Preparing for Emergencies & Disasters. Retirement Planning will be the focus of several sessions in December. Here are few participants’ comments about last year’s program:• "I was mostly clueless on car purchasing. That entire

webinar (on car buying) was incredibly helpful."• "I love how you are varying the topics, you are really

covering a lot of different financial aspects and I love that."

• "Though I knew about the basics of retirement, this program enabled me to not only have a better understanding, but resources for the future. Anything I am not certain on or that may change, I will know where to go for the answers."

The Valley County MSU Extension Service will once again be offering the free webinars at the Valley County Courthouse. Or you can register to watch them on your home computer at: www.msuextension.org/solidfinances. Recordings of past sessions are available for viewing at: www.msuextension.org/solidfinances/pastrecordings.html. For more information, do not hesitate to call the Valley County Extension office at 228-6241.
