ment laws implemented in recent
years and determine if any changes
are needed. In particular, he cited
the state's open records reform law
of 2009, which created a "presump-
tion of openness" for public access
to government records and files.
Jackley noted that there is a
"delicate balance" between the
need to protect the privacy of cer-
tain information kept by govern-
ment and the need for
transparency in government. He
noted the number of cases that
have been brought before the Open
Meetings Commission since its
start in 2004.
News media representatives on
the task force made several sugges-
tions for the entire group to con-
sider, including possible changes to
provisions in the open meetings
laws that allow for executive ses-
sions and changes in the open
records laws that allow for certain
types of information to be kept con-
fidential.
The group also heard a presen-
tation by Deputy Attorney General
Diane Best about the history of
various open government laws im-
plemented the past 10 years.
--SDNA News Service
An open government task force
appointed by the governor and the
attorney general agreed at its first
meeting Aug. 22 in Pierre to look
closer at state laws pertaining to
government meetings and records
and discuss possible changes to
those laws.
Thirty-one people representing
government, news media, law en-
forcement, courts and business
identified a list of issues related to
the state's open meetings and
records laws and agreed to form
two subcommittees to tackle the
list.
The task force plans to meet
again Sept. 12 in Pierre.
The task force, appointed by
Gov. Dennis Daugaard and Attor-
ney General Marty Jackley, is sim-
ilar to groups formed by former
Attorney General Larry Long a
decade ago. The work of those
groups led to several changes in
South Dakota's open government
laws, including the creation of the
Open Meetings Commission.
"We think good government is
transparent and open," Daugaard
told the task force in opening com-
ments Aug. 22.
Daugaard urged the task force
to look at the various open govern-

Gov. Dennis Daugaard has is-
sued an Executive Order that,
upon receipt of a permit, grants
permission to move over-width
baled livestock feed not exceeding
12-feet-wide or 15-feet-high in
South Dakota two hours after sun-
set and two hours before sunrise.
Over-width vehicles must be
equipped with flashing or rotating
white or amber warning lights
placed at each side of the loads
widest extremity. The warning
lights must be clearly visible to mo-
torists approaching from the front
and rear. Movement under the ex-
ecutive order is valid only for baled
livestock feed.
The Governors Executive Order
allows over-width moving of baled
livestock feed until cessation of the
drought emergency or no later than
Oct. 20, 2012.
This summers persistent
drought conditions have left live-
stock producers across South
Dakota with inadequate feed sup-
plies, said Walt Bones, South
Dakota Secretary of Agriculture.
Increasing hauling height and
width restrictions for baled hay
will allow producers to move feed
in a more efficient manner.
The normal restriction on South
Dakota highway loads is 14-feet, 3-
inches high and 8-feet, 6-inches
wide.
Although height and width re-
strictions for baled livestock feed
have been temporarily increased by
Executive Order, several highways
in the state have width and height
restrictions in place because of con-
struction or permanent structures.
Truckers are encouraged to check
their routes ahead of time for those
restrictions.
Agriculture is South Dakota's
No. 1 industry, generating nearly
$21 billion in annual economic ac-
tivity and employing more than
80,000 South Dakotans. The South
Dakota Department of Agricul-
ture's mission is to promote, pro-
tect, preserve and improve this
industry for today and tomorrow.

South Dakotas average compos-
ite ACT score remains unchanged
from last year at 21.8, where it has
been for the past three years. The
national average was also un-
changed from a year ago, sitting at
21.1 as it has for four of the past
five years.
While South Dakotas scores are
consistently higher than the na-
tional average by several tenths of
a point, South Dakota Secretary of
Education Dr. Melody Schopp says
there is always room for improve-
ment.
She said efforts, such as imple-
mentation of the Common Core
State Standards, should help boost
student learning overall. With the
Common Core, students will be
challenged to engage higher-level
thinking skills in order to arrive at
a deeper understanding of the con-
cepts they are learning.
The Common Core standards
were designed to equip students
with the knowledge and skills nec-
essary as they move into postsec-
ondary education and careers,
Schopp said.
The ACT is scored on a scale of 1
to 36, with 36 as the highest possi-
ble score. Students are tested in
the areas of English, mathematics,
reading and science, although the
science portion is science reason-
ing, not science-content knowledge.
The ACT test is commonly used as
a benchmark for college entrance
and readiness.
In South Dakota, 81 percent of
graduating seniors took the ACT,
which is high for states that dont
require ACT testing for graduation.
The state Department of Educa-
tion offers South Dakota students
several resources to prepare for the
test, such as access to free test
preparation materials available
through SDMyLife.com, an online
academic and career planning re-
source hosted by the department.
In addition, the department col-
laborates with the Board of Re-
gents to identify and assist high
school students whose ACT scores
indicate they will require remedia-
tion at the college and university
level.
We have tools in place that can
help assist these students in
shoring up their knowledge and
skills, Schopp said. If students
can get some of this remedial work
done before their postsecondary ed-
ucation, it will save them both time
and money once they make the
transition.

still above national average
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vil-
sack has announced the selection of
16 recipients for grants to help
spur economic development and
create or save jobs in 17 states.
"The funding I am announcing

ties obtain the financing they need
to grow their businesses and create
jobs," Vilsack said. "These grants
and loans represent the Obama ad-
ministration's commitment to ex-
pand capital investments, spur
business development and make
infrastructure improvements to
strengthen our small towns and
communities."
USDA Rural Development is
providing assistance through the
Rural Business Enterprise Grant
(RBEG) program, which provides
grants to small and emerging rural
businesses for projects such as dis-
tance learning networks and em-
ployment-related adult education
programs. Rural public entities

cies and municipal authorities), In-
dian tribes and rural, private
non-profit corporations are eligible
to apply for funding under this pro-
gram. For more information about

President Obama's plan for
rural America has brought about
historic investment and resulted in
stronger rural communities. Under
the President's leadership, these
investments in housing, commu-
nity facilities, businesses and infra-
structure have empowered rural
America to continue leading the
way strengthening America's
economy, small towns and rural
communities. USDA's investments
in rural communities support the
rural way of life that stands as the
backbone of our American values.
President Obama and Agriculture
Secretary Tom Vilsack are commit-
ted to a smarter use of Federal re-
sources to foster sustainable
economic prosperity and ensure the
government is a strong partner for
businesses, entrepreneurs and
working families in rural commu-
nities.

opment mission area, has an active
portfolio of more than $172 billion
in loans and loan guarantees.
These programs are designed to
improve the economic stability of

Veterans from Veterans Adminis-
tration Black Hills Health Care
System visited with five inspiring
military heroes, Thursday, August
16, when bicyclists from the Long
Ride Home Project made a pit stop
at the Fort Meade campus.
The project was started by Casey
Miller, a civilian, as a way to help
veterans with their transitions
home. He selected five military he-
roes from across the nation to par-
ticipate in a summer long bike ride
from Aberdeen, Wash., to the Dis-
trict of Columbia, to raise money
and awareness for other veterans
in need.
The journey will take them three
months and they will pedal more
than 4,000 miles. Their schedule
put them in Kyle, August 21, and
Martin, August 22.
Miller selected his group of serv-
ice people to include men and
women of varied ages, backgrounds
and interests. I tried to get as di-
versed of a group as possible,
Miller said. I figure, pain doesnt
discriminate. So why should we?
The group of cyclists includes
service people suffering from par-
tial paralysis, post traumatic stress
disorder and homelessness. Two of
the cyclists are making this cross
country trek on modified bicycles,
made to accommodate their lower
extremity paralysis. Veterans at
Ft. Meade were amazed by the cy-
clists determination, and their in-
teresting bikes.
Veterans from Ft. Meade had an
afternoon of recalling their military
tales to the visiting veteran bicy-
clists. They swapped tour stories
and riding tips. By the end of their
visit, it was hard to tell who was
more inspired by whom.
Ill think of you when I get up
that next hill, said Colleen Bush-
nell, US Air Force retired, cyclist,
as she parted ways with a veteran.
Its been an honor to meet you.

Modern-day Christians can learn some good lessons
from Old Testament prayers. When Jehoshaphat be-
seeched God for help, he struck a balance between ask-
ing the Lord to meet his needs and proclaiming His
greatness. Likewise, our requests shouldbe made with recognition of who God is. Otherwise, the focus of
our prayers becomes need, weakness, failure, or fear.
Jehoshaphat cried out to God about his terrible predicament, but he also exalted the Lord's attributes,
acknowledging the great things He had done. When we pray like this, we become stronger, bolder, and
more forthright. That's why knowing the Word of God is so important. When we read about how the Lord
worked in the lives of others, we understand His awesome power and might. Then we can look to the
men and women of the Old Testament as an example and begin to pray in a similar way. God's wonder-
working power is still available today, and He wants His children to access it.
By proclaiming, "Power and might are in Your hand so that no one can stand against You" (v. 6), Je-
hoshaphat was praising God and at the same time reminding himself of the Lord's greatness. As you
pray, remind God of His mercy, talk to Him about His grace, and recall His mighty power.
Do you want to revolutionize your prayer life? If you focus as much attention on declaring the attributes
of the Lord as you do on making requests, your prayers will take on a whole new dimension. They'll cease
to be self-centered and instead will become God-centered.

Lana Faye Sanftner, age 47 of
Kadoka, S.D., died Sunday, August
26, 2012, at the Rapid City Re-
gional Hospital.
Lana Faye Jones was born on
August 11, 1965, in Kadoka, the
daughter of Tom and Mary (Stotts)
Jones.
She attended school at Midland,
graduating in 1983. She lived in
Hico, Texas, and Ft. Lauderdale,

earned a degree in music and voice.
She moved to Kadoka, in 1991

ent businesses. She was also an
Avon consultant.
Lana married Tim Sanftner in
2002. To this union a daughter,

Lana always wanted to travel to
the tropics. In May, she got that op-
portunity, going to Punta Cana, Do-
minican Republic with her niece
Marinda. We heard several funny
stories of their adventure. Anyone

and Jane Adeline Romero of
Kadoka; and a host of other rela-
tives and friends.
Lana was preceded in death by
her father Tom Jones on January
11, 2003, and her mother Mary
Jones on September 9, 2007.

One of the best pieces of advice
my parents gave me as a young
man getting ready to leave for col-
lege was to never forget where I
came from. More than 30 years
later my parents advice still rings
true.
As a United States Senator I can
think of no better way to stay con-
nected to the state I represent than
to spend time at home talking with
South Dakotans about the issues
and policies important to them. I
always look forward to the August
Congressional work period because
it gives me the opportunity to
travel across the state and stay
connected with constituents. This
August work period has been no
different. I have enjoyed meeting
with a variety of groups and people,
and celebrating the success of com-
munities across the state.
Earlier this month, I traveled
down to Vermillion where I at-
tended the ribbon cutting cere-
mony for the Lewis and Clark
Regional Water System water
treatment plant. This new plant is
a victory for the 300,000 people in
eastern South Dakota who will re-
ceive water. I also traveled to Por-
cupine where I took part in the
grand opening celebration of the
Rockyford Community School. This
school will enroll around 500 pre-
school through eighth grade stu-
dents on the Pine Ridge Indian
Reservation.
I always enjoy connecting with
the agriculture producers in the
state, and again this year was
pleased to gather with farmers and
ranchers at DakotaFest in
Mitchell. Due to the high tempera-
tures and sparse rainfall, this has
been a particularly difficult year
for farmers and ranchers. As Con-
gress works to pass a new Farm
Bill, it is important to get feedback
from the producers impacted by
these policies.
Fair season is also upon us, and
that meant visits to Parker for the
Turner County Fair and Aberdeen
for the Brown County Fair. I en-
joyed taking in the exhibits, food,
and music with many of my fellow
fair-goers. Of course, no fair season
would be complete without a trip to
Huron. I look forward to again at-
tending the South Dakota State
Fair.
As I wrap up another August
work period, I was glad to connect
with people all over the state. It is
always good to hear directly from
the people I am fortunate enough
to represent and those who will
continue to keep me close to South
Dakota.

Flower gardens tend to have a
mind of their own. They some-
times resist suggestions and prefer
to do their own thing. That has
been the case with the one behind
our house this year, but it has put
on a fairly good show anyway that
was mostly done by itself without
much input from us.
It all started last fall when wife
Corinne yearned for a glorious
spring display of tulips, daffodils,
and hyacinths. She therefore or-
dered a hundred or so bulbs which
we carefully planted with lashings
of bone-meal fertilizer. This spring,
then, Corinne eagerly waited for
the expected riot of color and
beauty. It didnt happen. It was a
bad year for bulbs for some un-
known reason, and the whole local
area was affected. We did have a
few nice daffodils and one hot-pink
tulip. The tulip was pleasant to
look at for a few days until a hur-
ricane-strength wind came
through and blew all its petals off.
Some of the other tulips and the
hyacinths came up and flowered
but they were stunted things with
the blooms barely visible and low
enough to the ground that they
were mostly hidden by leaves.
They werent much to look at.
Never mind. The big clump of
irises came through and put on a
nice show of purple blooms. They
lasted quite a while and were fol-
lowed by some purple salvia here
and there. The best showing,
though, was the larkspur which
came next. These are actually an-
nual plants instead of perennial,
but they throw out so many seeds
that, if you have them one year,
youre apt to have more of them
the next. Such was the case. We
had huge areas that came up with
loads of purple, blue and white
spiky flowers. They went on a long
time and were great.
Next on the gardens agenda
were hollyhocks. There was one
big clump of those plus a couple of
smaller ones. They were mostly
pink with one or two reds and pro-
vided a nice display. We thought
they were done for the year, but re-
cently theyve thrown out a few
more blooms, especially at the top.
The bottom part of each stalk has
gone to seed enough that a hereto-
fore-unidentified bird parks itself
sideways on a stock each morning
and crunches the seeds. The bird
has some pinkish orange on its
breast, some white wing bars, and
a yellow beak but doesnt quite
match any pictures in the bird
book. If the seeds hold out long
enough, we might eventually get a
good enough look to figure things
out. Grasshoppers and some dis-
ease caused problems for a while,
but those have now disappeared
and been replaced by recurrent
growth. We are slightly wondering
if more spikes with flowers will ap-
pear before frost, but well have to
wait and see on that.
At the moment, weve mostly
gone from hollyhocks to morning
glories. These are large purple
blooms that brighten our morn-
ings. They have finally granted
Corinnes wish to have something
pretty trail over the retaining wall.
She originally wanted some special
kind of petunias for that purpose,
but those were not available in any
of the local greenhouses this
spring. We did find another plant
that grows down instead of up and
has lots of small yellow or pink
blooms. Those were potted, parked
behind the wall, and instructed to
grow over and down. They refused.
Every time Corinne would turn
them so a branch was headed over,
they pulled those back and sent
them another direction. Maybe the
wall was too hot or something. The
morning glories, though, all by
themselves started growing over
and down so that three hanging-
down sprigs are now in place and
blooming. They are also climbing
up the little lilac that never
bloomed and up some elm sprigs
that will be pulled later this fall.
Also in evidence are a little
cedar tree and various other non-
blooming plants of various sizes
and shapes. They all add interest
and have grown thanks to the
water and fertilizer Corinne has
given them over the summer. She
is into nurturing things including
plants. The creeping jenny likes
the care too, but it cant be up-
rooted at present without also
pulling the morning glories. It ac-
tually has pretty white flowers
that could be enjoyed more if one
didnt know what a pest this plant
can be.
So, thats the story of the flower
garden. It definitely had a mind of
its own this year but still managed
to provide beauty and interest.
Who knows, maybe next year will
be even better. The bulbs are still
there and might bloom, and other
neat stuff is apt to happen. Well
look forward to it. The silly
flowerbed seems to know what its
doing. Except for pulling a few
weeds and watering, maybe we
should just keep our hands off.
Hands Off Gardening
Lookin Around
by Syd Iwan
Frank Carlson didnt win any
rodeos this week since he and his
crew didnt enter any. They did win
at the Frontier Days Rodeo in
White River last week however
plus a couple of others previously
this summer. Frank and family did
attend the Rosebud rodeos and fair.
On Wednesday they went to the
matched bronc ride which Frank
said was awesome. On Friday,
there were other rodeo events in
which Tonis sister barrel raced in
18 seconds flat, which wasnt quite
good enough to take first but was
near the top. Toni does barrels and
breakaway too when she isnt ex-
pecting an addition to their family
in a month or so. On Sunday, there
was more rodeo action where local
Christy Willert came in second in
barrels, but her husband, Jamie,
got bucked off. Other than attend-
ing rodeos, Frank has been getting
in a lot of cattle work with calves
being given preconditioning shots.
Hes also been riding a few colts
and doing some training.
Ruth Ann Niehoff is back in the
area after spending the summer at
her home in Carson City, Nevada.
Various of Dennis and her kids
came through from military service
and work in far flung areas so she
wanted to be home for that. She
plans to be here through most of
September to deal with various
ranch things. On Sunday, Ruth
Ann and her mom, Kate DeVries,
attended church in Belvidere.
Wade Fox said hes had pretty
good luck fishing lately. The bass
are biting. Right now, however, hes
fishing for sport instead of food and
is doing catch and release. Some-
times fish taste a bit mossy at this
time of year anyway. Wade plans to
introduce his daughter to the joys
of fishing after the weather cools
down a bit. He has been doing some
trimming of horse hooves lately but
not a lot of shoeing.
Betty Kusick had surgery to re-
move some skin cancer from the
back of her left hand this week in
Rapid City. She is now sporting a
bandage that has some kind of
stick in it to prevent a lot of bend-
ing. This is inconvenient since
Betty is left-handed. She was, how-
ever, able to fry some fish for din-
ner on Saturday when Joe
Livermont came to visit.
On Saturday, Marlene and Bert
Perault helped give fall shots to
calves over at Luke Carlsons
which is Marlenes dads old place.
Mike helped do similar work that
day over at Larry and Lonny John-
stons, and Bert had helped there
on Friday. On Sunday, all three
worked some calves of their own
with the help of Bud Perault. When
there isnt cattle work, the family
has been scraping the horse barn
at their river place in preparation
for painting. Marlene said that
daughter Lesa is now an RN since
she passed her state boards and
finished her college training. She is
working at Rapid City Regional
Hospital where she takes care of
new babies and the mothers who
have just given birth. She says it is
her dream job. Marlene figures she
inherited her love of that kind of
work from Marlenes mom, Lillian
Carlson, who has always enjoyed
working with babies and kids.
Delores Bonenberger attended a
surprise birthday party for Jo
Rodgers in Belvidere on Sunday. It
was thrown by her son and hus-
band, Jory and John. Nikki Bonen-
berger and kids also attended. Jory
told Delores that it was Jos 40th
birthday, but Jo later corrected
that her 40th was last year and
this year was 41. Usually people
stall out at 39 instead of 40. They
all enjoyed cake and ice cream and
visiting. At the ranch, Keith, Brett
and Kade were all around this
weekend doing some fencing in
preparation for weaning. Delores
manned the kitchen and provided
meals as necessary for her hungry
crew. The guys took time off to help
fight the fire over at DJ Addisons
on Saturday.
Jeff Willert is sporting a sling on
his arm to help his broken collar-
bone feel better and heal itself. He
will have a doctor appointment
soon but doesnt seem to be in a lot
of misery although hes still sore.
Colter Carlson said they have
been gathering bulls and giving fall
shots. On Saturday, all the guys on
the place (Cole Hindman at the
Pines, Joe Pavlas on the Phipps
place and Colter on the home place)
all took time to go to the Addison
fire. Colter said it was mostly
taken care of already by the time
they drove the 16 miles to
Belvidere and then northeast to
Addisons. Baxter Badure went to
the fire as well.
Russ and Gay Spinsby went to
Kadoka for supplies on Saturday.
They noticed the fire on their way
home but werent sure where it
was. They have been working on
their tractor in preparation for
moving some hay before long.
Jim Addison said his nephew,
Myles Addison, had a rough day on
Saturday. He was checking cows
out at the place when the hot wire
on the pickup battery shorted out
and started a prairie fire. Jim fig-
ured the fire ended up being maybe
a mile long but not very wide,
maybe 120 acres were burned. The
pickup was saved. Jami Addison
started school last week in Murdo,
but Jim said they are planning to
let school out early the next few
days since the temperatures are
forecast to be in 100s.
Ronda and Rick Dennis picked
up their daughter, Bobbi Jo, and
Ben at the airport early Thursday
morning. They traveled to Mt.
Rushmore and went on to Dead-
wood, where they stayed the night.
Friday morning they returned to
Rapid City where they spent the
remainder of the weekend with
Dana DeVries. A group of family
members, and friends, Rob and
Peggy Eckert, Brad and Scotti
Block and Bob Eckert attended the
fair Friday night. Lori and Aaron
Iversen and children were also in
Rapid City for the weekend. On
Saturday Ronda and Ricks family
went to Reptile Gardens and the
fair. Everyone returned to their
homes on Sunday; Bobbi and Ben
rode back to Denver with Rob.
Chuck and Merry Willard have
had their daughter and grand-
daughter, Coleen and Frankie
Grace, home for a couple of weeks.
Part of the visit was marred by
Frankie getting the flu and passing
it to Coleen, although Chuck and
Merry escaped it somehow.
Coleens husband, Billy, brought
his gals to Rapid City for pickup,
and Merry will take them back to
Pinedale, WY, later this week
where she plans to stay for a bit
and maybe help with some can-
ning. Last week, everyone attended
the 4-H rodeo in Ft. Pierre. Merrys
niece and nephew from Trail City
participated, and Merrys brother
and his wife were there to see their
kids compete as were Merrys folks.
The weekend before this, a Bickel
family reunion was held in the Mo-
bridge area. Merrys folks and
three of her four brothers and their
families were there. The fourth
brother was on a mission trip to In-
donesia at the time and didnt
make it back. He was helping build
some homes out of bamboo. Daugh-
ter Niki Kleinsasser and kids were
also at the reunion. Merry said her
granddaughter, Frankie, is a lot of
fun and enjoys the chickens, cats,
horses, ropes, and lots of things
outside. She is 16-months old.
Later this week, everyone will go to
Nebraska to visit Casey before
Coleen returns home.
Troy J. Dent Jr., graduated with
a Doctor of Philosophy with a
major in Mechanical Engineering
from the University of Alabama in
Tuscaloosa, AL, on August 4, 2012.
He graduated from high school in
Ft. Walton Beach, Florida. Troy is
the son of Retired Col. Troy Dent
and Kay Dent of Shalimar, Florida.
Troy Jr. is currently employed by
Applied Research Associates in Al-
buquerque, New Mexico. Kay Dent
graduated from Belvidere High
School in 1954. She is the daughter
of Wilbur and Eleanor Osborn.
We can learn a lot from
the game of volleyball.
If you do not concentrate on
serving, you will surely lose.
Ed and Carol Ferguson spent
last weekend at their cabin in
Rochford. When they returned
Tuesday evening, they had
overnight guests. Eds cousins,
Blanche Cox of Newcastle, Mary
Simmons from Gillette and George
Cap Ferguson of Silt, Colorado,
were driving through western
South Dakota looking at locations
where they had lived as children
and other places of family interest.
Bruce and Jessie Ring and
Stephanie attended a funeral in
Iowa last week and returned home
on Wednesday. June Ring tended
their animals and garden while
they were gone.
Gale, JoAnn and Jerry Letellier
kept appointments in Pierre on
Monday and then in the evening
they all attended the garden and
yard tour at the new home of
Luann and Lowell Noeske in
Pierre.
James Letellier was among the
crowd taking in the Pen of Three
heifer show in White River on
Wednesday. He got home in time to
answer two fire calls by the White
River. Please be careful the ground
is burning up and this whole coun-
try could go up in flash. Keep your
eyes open and dont hesitate to call
if you see smoke.
Maxine Allard and June Ring
accompanied Janice Ring to the
Beryl Brunsch funeral on Thurs-
day afternoon.
School News:
Norris school will hold an open
house on Wednesday, August 29
from 4-6 p.m. Everyone is invited
to attend.
No school on next Monday,
Labor Day, Sept 3.
Several folks from this area at-
tended services for Beryl Brunsch,
74, in Martin on Thursday after-
noon. Beryl served in the U.S. Ma-
rine and returned home to ranch,
rope and drive truck.
When we were first married and
without many luxuries, Beryl
knocked at our door holding a vac-
uum cleaner all ready to demon-
strate it. I was so excited, but knew
better than to get my hopes up. I
didnt know he was a local guy.
While he was demonstrating it;
Jim came in called him by name
they shook hands and I was so
shocked that they knew each other!
They got to talking and I didnt
think I would ever get to buy that
vacuum cleaner, but we did. I will
never forget it.
Our hearts and prayers go out
for his dear mother, Lucille, his
daughter and other family mem-
bers. It has been a heartbreaking
summer for all of us who love and
know the Brunsch family.
Friday, Jeanne Merchen accom-
panied her sister, Pat Porch, to
Rapid City. They joined Bunny
Berry, Carol Merchen and Darrel
and Lynette Batie at Minnervas
for a Batie sibling celebration of
Jeanne and Bunnys birthdays.
Friday, Evan and Dorothy Bligh
kept appointments in Pierre and
then went on to Valentine, NE, for
the Fultons horse sale.
Folks around here have kept the
road busy traveling to the Rosebud
Fair over the weekend. The big
news is that the Red Leaf fast pitch
team came away champions over
the Nelson team with a score 12-0.
Pitcher Richard Charging Hawk
and his team did it again. Norris is
once again the home of champions!
Yes, we are proud of that.
Friday, Gale, JoAnn, Gary and
Jerry Letellier and Jim Carey trav-
eled to Sioux Falls. That evening
they joined Dan Letellier and his
friend, Colleen, and his son, Joe,
and his friend, Hanna, at the
Brazilian Grille to help Joe cele-
brate his 18th birthday.
Sharon Ring made a trip to Mis-
sion on Saturday.
Saturday, June Ring and grand-
son, Ryan, enjoyed taking in the
Rosebud Fair garden show, pow
wow and parade. They were kept
busy helping with entries at the
garden show. At the close of the day
several best of show awards were
given out in the children and adult
divisions. Ryan was awarded best
of show for his green beans and
June received best of show award
for her black diamond watermelon.
Good job!
Bob Kaufman of Parker, Col-
orado, was visiting his mother,
Irene Kaufman, for several days
this week. Friday night Irene
hosted a supper in Bobs honor;
guests were Marjorie Popkes of
Mission, Ed, Carol and Jesse Fer-
guson of Norris. This same group
traveled to the Popkes new home
on Saturday night to enjoy another
meal and more reminiscing. Bob
returned to his home on Sunday.
Maxine Allard was thrilled to
have Virginia Coller and Stacy Va-
landry stop for a visit Sunday af-
ternoon. The gals went home with
copies of Maxines books, too.
Stacy was too young to go to
school when her mom, Iris, was
cooking at the Day School so she
spent her time at the Phipps School
when Maxine was teaching there.
It sure beat just sitting in the cook
shack.
Sunday, James and Marjorie
Letellier started out for the Dwain
and Rose Mooney sale in Kilgore
only to meet up with a road closed
sign at the state line. They turned
on the gravel road and began their
little Nebraska back roads tour to
Crookston then on to Kilgore. They
did make it to the sale and also en-
joyed a visit with their daughter,
Julie before returning home.
On Monday funeral services for
life long Todd County resident,
Walt Heinert, 89, were held. Serv-
ices were held in Valentine, NE, at
the Our Saviour Lutheran Church
with burial at the St. John
Lutheran Cemetery in Norris.
Walt and Erna Heinert were a
part of our community and church
for many many years. Walts grand-
sons are the fourth generation on
the home place. Our hearts and
prayers are with you at this sad
time of loss. Our prayers go out es-
pecially to his wife, Erna, and fam-
ily. You are not alone, there are a
heap of friends and neighbors will-
ing and ready to be of support in

Pedal tractor pull Tagg Weller competed at the Turner
County Fair Pedal Pull in Parker, SD. Tagg won a 2nd-place trophy in the
boys seven- year-old division with his pull of 32 11. The top three winners
in each age division (4-11) qualified for the state pedal tractor pull which
is held at the Mitchell Corn Palace on Labor Day. The man who provides
the tractors and coordinates the contests said that at the end of the three
month summer pulling circuit, he will have "pulled" 8,000 kids!
Still busy at 90!

crease the chances of having a safe
trip and an enjoyable holiday
weekend, Gov. Daugaard said.
Most accidents are entirely pre-
ventable if drivers make safe
choices and make sure their pas-
sengers do, too.
That means always using seat-
belts, heeding speed limits, not
overdriving road conditions and
never driving after drinking.
Those are important habits
whenever you travel, the Governor
said. They are especially impor-
tant when additional traffic will be
on our highways during Labor Day
weekend.
Gov. Dennis Daugaard is asking
motorists to be extra careful when
traveling on Labor Day weekend.
Labor Day is the unofficial end
of summer, and families often
make it a time for one final outing
together, the Governor said.
Ten people were killed and 247
others were injured in crashes on
South Dakota roads during the
past five Labor Day weekends, ac-
cording to the state Office of Acci-
dent Records. Four of those
fatalities involved alcohol-related
crashes.
Designating a sober driver and
always making it a firm practice to
never drink and drive greatly in-
Governor asks travelers to stay safe
Senator John Thune (R-SD) said
the American Farm Bureau Feder-
ation report released August 21
clearly shows that the Democrat
controlled Senates recently passed
tax legislation would jeopardize the
future of 71 percent of South
Dakotas family farms because it in-
tentionally returns the death tax
exemption to $1 million next year
instead of keeping it at the current
$5 million.
Over the past few years the
prices of all South Dakota agricul-
tural land, especially cropland, has
increased substantially. This dra-
matic price increase, along with the
Democrats proposal to reduce the
death tax exemption level to $1 mil-
lion, could make passing a family
farm of only a few hundred acres to
the next generation economically
impossible due to death tax liabil-
ity. According to data collected by
AFBF, when applying 2012 farm
real estate values, farms and
ranches larger than 714 acres
would likely exceed the $1 million
exemption level. Crop producers
would be particularly impacted by
the lower exemption levels, as
farms larger than 431 acres of crop-
land would be likely to exceed the
$1 million exemption level.
This report outlines just how
devastating the Senate Democrats
death tax proposal would be to
South Dakota farmers and ranch-
ers, said Thune. The value of
cropland across South Dakota has
increased by more than 23 percent
over the last year. According to the
data collected by AFBF from the
United States Department of Agri-
cultures National Agriculture Sta-
tistics Service, the appreciated
value of cropland throughout the
state means that nearly 71 percent
of South Dakota farms would ex-
ceed the $1 million exemption level
under the Senate Democrats pro-
posal. Since many family farm and
ranch assets consist of land, live-
stock, equipment, and small cash
reserves, this punitive tax leaves
the next generation with little
choice but to sell family holdings to
pay the death tax. In March of this
year, I introduced the Death Tax
Repeal Permanency Act which
would permanently repeal the fed-
eral death tax and the generation
skipping transfer tax. Repeal of this
destructive tax is critical to keeping
family farms and ranches intact
across South Dakota.
Todays report shows that the
outdated death tax would impact
over half of South Dakotas farms
and ranches if it is allowed to revert
to pre-2001 levels, said Scott Van-
derWal, president of the South
Dakota Farm Bureau. The Senate
should pass Senator Thunes death
tax repeal bill, or at the very least,
extend current levels to protect
South Dakotas agriculture produc-
ers from this unfair tax.
On July 25, Senate Democrats
passed legislation on a party line
vote of 51 to 48 that would increase
taxes on small businesses and fam-
ilies. Additionally, if enacted, this
bill would return the current $5
million death tax exemption to $1
million next year, and would raise
the tax rate from the current top
rate of 35 percent to an exorbitant
55 percent.
Senator Thunes legislation, the
Death Tax Repeal Permanency Act,
has 37 cosponsors and is supported
by more than 50 groups and organ-
izations. Representative Kevin
Brady (R-TX) introduced identical
legislation in the House of Repre-
sentatives and the bill has more
than 200 bipartisan cosponsors.

The Kadoka Volleyball team
traveled to Little Wound on Satur-
day and came up with a nice win
25-20, 25-11, 25-21.
The team really looked sharp de-
fensively and serving. We served
68/72 which is 94%, with 12 aces;
Tessa Stout having 7 of those.
Mariah Pierce and Tessa Stout
combined for 35/37 serving, 26
service points, and 9 aces.
Defensively, we just didn't let
much drop on the floor and the
communication was top-notch.
Tessa Stout had 8 set assists and
Taylor Merchen added 4.
Offensively, we were just aver-
age. We set pretty well, but strug-
gled with getting kills. Raven
Jorgensen led the way in attack-
iong with 12/13 and 6 kills. Marti
Herber, Shaley Herber and Kwincy
Ferguson added 4 kills each. Over-
all is was a very solid first-game
performance.
The junior varsity lost 2-1. We
started two freshmen and an eigth
grader so there were some nerves,
but overall they played fair for the
first time out together. Mackenzie
Word and Shelby Uhlir had a nice
serving match. Scout Sudbeck
played well offensively and had
some nice kills for her first time
playing in high school. Allie
Romero and Destiny Dale did the
setting, and both did pretty well.
Shaina Solon, an eighth grader,
and Jerica Coller, a ninth grader,
filled the middle front and middle
back and managed themselves well
for their first starts on the junior
varsity.
The "C" team lost 2-0. The team
is made up of mostly eigth and
ninth graders, so they were very
nervous. They had some nice
serves and serve received the ball
well at times, but the inexperience
showed. They will definitely im-
prove as the year proceeds.
Next action is Tuesday at
Kadoka versus Takini and Oer-
lichs. This is varsity only. Then we
will play in Philip on Thursday, Au-
gust 30, which will include "C"
team starting at 5:00 p.m. and jun-
ior varsity and varsity to follow.

ball very effectively behind the
blocking of Clint Stout, Herbie O-
Daniel, Gavin DeVries, Logan Am-
mons and Logan Christensen. Our
backs all had some very good runs
lead by Chandlier Sudbeck who
carried the ball 11 times for 111
yards and 2 touchdowns, and
Chance Knutson who carried it 6
times for 44 yards and 2 touch-
downs. Our passing game was
pretty effective as well. Kenar Van-
derMay completed 9 of his 12
passes for 155 yards and 1 touch-
down. Aaron Janis was 1-3 for 45
yards and 1 touchdown. Our lead-
ing receivers were Chandlier Sud-
beck with 2 catches for 45 yards
and 1 touchdown, Logan Chris-
tensen had 1 catch for 30 yards,
Chris Anderson had 1 catch for 45
yards and 1 TD, Lane Patterson
had 2 catches for 42 yards, Klay
ODaniel had 2 catches for 23
yards, and Chance Knutson 1 catch
for 12 yards.
Defensively, we did a solid job.
When I look at the tackle stats for
the week everyone had very similar
numbers which meant that we
were doing a good job of team tack-
ling. Edgemont was stifled by our
pressure and never were able to
sustain a real good drive.
This week we play our first con-
ference game as we host the New
Underwood Tigers. New Under-
wood returns a good core of their
starters from last season and will
pose as a very challenging oppo-
nent. I look for it to be a very excit-
ing game this week.

Edgemont Moguls 8
Kadoka Area Kougars 44
The 2012 football season has
begun for the Kadoka Area
Kougars and the team got off on
the right foot defeating the Edge-
mont Moguls 44-8.
We set out to block, tackle and
take care of the football and we felt
if we do those three things right
that we would be able to do what
we wanted to do; the kids came out
and executed that game plan very
well. Sometimes the first game of
the year you come out and make
some mistakes, but for the most
part we kept the mistakes to a min-
imum, only recording four penal-
ties, and no turnovers.
I thought that our offensive line
did a nice job blocking. We ran the
Kougars put together strong
win against Edgemont Moguls
And in for the touchdown Chandlier Sudbeck #21 out
moves the defense of Edgemont and takes it in for the touchdown.
Defense, a key factor Chris Anderson #33 and Logan Chris-
tensen #34 put the pressure on the offense and get the tackle, to force the
turn over on downs against the Edgemont Moguls.
Defense on the move Lane Patterson #23
moves in behind the Edgemont Mogul and gets the
tackle for a loss of yards.
Endurance was shown on the field as Kenar
VanderMay #2 breaks away from the defense and gains
yardage against Edgemont.

SUPERINTENDENTS REPORT: Mr.
Hermann reported that the NAFIS con-
ference will be September 23-25; he will
attend and inquired if any board mem-
bers will be able to attend.
Inservice will begin on Tuesday, August
21. The board will provide lunch for staff
on that day.
Mr. Hermann stated that the district wide
goal this year is to raise academics; he
reported that the Dakota Step results are
on the SD Department of Education web-
site; the results have just become avail-
able so a complete comparison review
has not yet been done; a different tiered
grading scale is now being reported; at-
tendance in most areas was good.
The hiring process used was to select
the best applicant for the position; some
positions are working on alternative cer-
tification and the process for gaining full
certification; the Department of Educa-
tion is behind in processing paperwork
for the applications.
PRINCIPALS REPORTS: Mr. Seiler re-
ported that staff members have raised
concerns on tardies. This will be ad-
dressed with staff monitoring halls; stu-
dents who are tardy will have to see the
principal to be admitted to class with fol-
low-up consequences for habitual
tardies.
ICU will be established. This program will
provide accountability for missing assign-
ments. Teachers will have assigned
classes (grade levels) and will track
those students through their high school
career with the goal of raising the bar and
expectations for students.
Mr. Seiler will be suggesting that each
class select a community service project.
The project hours and participation will
be documented and will teach the value
of giving back to the community and may
also be used on the students scholarship
applications.
Mr. Nemecek reported the need for a full
time instructional aide in the pre-school
classroom. Due to the large class size,
the pre-school will be split to two ses-
sions (morning and afternoon). The
staffing increase will be a one-half FTE
due to re-assignment of some staffing
duties and future of the position will be
based upon the number of students.
Mr. Nemecek reported that he hopes to
adopt the Power Walk Through, a re-
search based program, as a strategy to
increase student achievement. The pro-
gram involves a daily observation visit to
each classroom and can provide imme-
diate feedback and communication to the
teacher. The program is not a substitute
for teacher evaluation but as an addi-
tional tool for instruction development.
BOARD COMMITTEE REPORTS:
BUILDING COMMITTEE: Mr. Hermann
reported that the building project has
gone well; windows should be done on
August 16. When the metal siding was
removed from the west wall of the grade
wing it was discovered that the plywood
was deteriorated and needed to be re-
placed. The stucco on the west wall and
the cement curb is scheduled to be com-
pleted by August 24. Windows for the
grade wing section will be delivered in
two to four weeks.
Mr. Hermann stated that he did not ap-
prove the change order for the section of
the east wall by the east entrance be-
cause of the cost for cosmetic purpose
only.
Carpets are being cleaned and the great
hall should be completed by Monday, Au-
gust 20.
Other summer projects included repairs
at the Interior School and gym, entrance
door replaced and carpets replaced in
two rooms; the Long Valley School proj-
ect included replacing carpet in two
rooms, weather stripping and replace-
ment of some ceiling tile; the Midland
School also had carpet installed in two
rooms and upgrades in the kitchen.
The new bus will be delivered in Septem-
ber.

Planting Winter Wheat
Farmers will soon be planting
winter wheat, and have a number
of issues to consider. What variety
or varieties to plant, whether to
use a fungicide seed treatment,
when to plant, planting into dry
soil, preventing stand losses to
grasshoppers, and how to avoid
the viral diseases wheat streak
mosaic virus and barley yellow
dwarf are only some of the things
to think about.
2012 has been a stark reminder
of the value of wheat, and particu-
larly winter wheat, in cropping
systems, and should gain acres in
many areas of South Dakota.
Wheat provides diversity in crop
rotations, time for soil moisture re-
generation, increased water hold-
ing capacity, improved soil health
and other benefits, while produc-
ing a commodity that is valued in
the marketplace.
The SDSU 2012 Winter Wheat
Variety Yield Results is currently
available at: http://www.winterce-
reals.us/research_variety_trial.asp
, and should soon be found in the
Resource Library on
http://igrow.org/agronomy/wheat/.
This document is eagerly antici-
pated by winter wheat producers
each year to help make decisions
on varieties to plant.
An important decision in the
2012 planting season will be how
to manage planting into dry soil.
Three possible options are sug-
gested, 1. Plant at the normal
seeding depth (1 - 2) during the
normal, recommended planting
time (Sept 15 Oct 20) and hope
for rain, 2. Use a hoe drill to plant
into moisture (if possible) during
the recommended planting dates,
or 3. Wait for rain and then plant.
Each of these options has their ad-
vantages and risks. Be sure to con-
sider the crop insurance
implications and deadlines when
planning your strategy.
The 2012 drought has chal-
lenged the management abilities
of South Dakota producers, and
will continue to do so. A number of
articles and resources have re-
cently been posted to
http://igrow.org/agronomy/wheat/
that provide more detailed infor-
mation on how to deal with the is-
sues mentioned above. To contact
a field specialist directly, visit

plete listing of the staff, telephone
numbers and e-mail addresses at
the regional centers.

Fuel Your Workout
Our media use and exposure to
advertising messages has been
greatly elevated in recent years.
The mass media bombards us with
a variety of information about
health, nutrition and fitness every
day. Much of the information lacks
consistency; so many active indi-
viduals arent sure what to believe.
Eating for a great workout pro-
vides enough protein, water, vita-
mins, minerals, carbohydrates and
fat to enable the body to perform at
its optimal level. Except for calo-
ries and water, the nutritional
needs are basically the same for
people who exercise for fun and
health, for athletes and for those
who are less active.
Do you want to know how much
of each food group you need to con-
sume daily? Choose My Plates
Daily Food Plan
(http://www.choosemyplate.gov/su-
pert racker- t ool s/ dai l y- f ood-
plans.html) can serve as a guide to
eating well for fitness and health.
The amount of food we need varies
depending on our age, size, and ac-
tivity level. The Daily Food plan
calculates what and how much to
eat within your calorie allowance.
Some foods fuel your fitness
workouts better than others. Ba-
nanas and oranges are good exam-
ples of foods to eat throughout
fitness training. They are potas-
sium-rich foods which replace
sweat loss. Bananas are also full of
carbohydrates which fuel muscle
activity. We get carbohydrates
from grains, fruits, and vegetables;
we should avoid simple sugars.
Grain-based foods have many
good qualities for fitness-oriented
individuals. Grains and cereals are
loaded with carbohydrates. Cere-
als that are fortified provide in-
creased nutrients, especially iron.
Whole grain foods provide potas-
sium, fiber and nutrients.
Dairy foods should be eaten with
each meal. They are very good
sources of protein and calcium; the
protein builds muscle and calcium
helps maintain strong bones.
For a quick and easy way to
boost your protein, add a can a
tuna to salads or pasta. An ordi-
nary (6.5 ounce) can of tuna sup-
plies 40 grams of low-fat protein.
To stay hydrated throughout ex-
ercise, drink chilled water before,
during, and after exercise. Cool
fluids are absorbed quickly. Be
sure to drink chilled fluids at fre-
quent intervals. Water acts as your
bodys cooling system. For those in-
dividuals who exercise for more
than 60 minutes in hot conditions,
sports drinks provide not only
fluid, but also carbohydrates and
sodium.
Strive for healthy eating prac-
tices to obtain the fitness results
you want. Eating right can help
fuel your event or workout. To view
the physical activity guidelines
provided by the Centers for Dis-
ease Control and Prevention go to

ity/everyone/guidelines/index.html

Shortages in pasture availability
have forced many to purchase hay
this year, sometimes from other
states or lower quality hay. When
doing this, it is important to be
aware of potential unintended con-
sequences, such as introductions of
new noxious/invasive weeds, poten-
tially toxic weeds in the hay, and
hay containing herbicide residues
that could injure broadleaf crops in
future years, says Mike Moechnig,
SDSU Extension Weeds Specialist
and Roger Gates, SDSU Rangeland
Extension Specialist.
"It is illegal to transport hay
containing noxious weed seeds in
South Dakota regardless if the hay
is from this or another state,"
Moechnig said. "In fact, this is a
Class 2 misdemeanor that could be
punishable by 30 days in prison
and/or a $500 fine."
Gates adds that this law applies
to situations in which the violation
constitutes a "substantial" risk of
contaminating fields or other land.
"Avoiding known weed patches
at harvest will reduce contamina-
tion. Hauling bales that are net
wrapped or tarping the load will
minimize the risk of excessive weed
seed distribution," Gates said.
The specialists say perhaps the
primary motivation to avoid weedy
hay is to avoid future weed infesta-
tion problems on your property.
"Fortunately, weed infestations
generally do not explode in a single
season so watching for noxious or
invasive species next year should
enable effective control of new in-
festations before they become a
costly problem," Moechnig said.
"Leafy spurge, Canada thistle, and
yellow toadflax are likely some of
the most difficult weeds to control
that may be present in grass hay so
it is particularly important to be
watching for these weed species
next year."
Moechnig says the need to hay
areas normally not harvested could
also increase the risk of having
toxic weeds in the hay.
"Perhaps the most toxic weeds
are poison hemlock and waterhem-
lock," Moechnig said. "Lethal doses
for some livestock species may be
only 0.2 - 0.8 percent of their body
weight."
He adds that poison hemlock
populations seemed to expand over
the past couple years, particularly
in northeastern South Dakota,
which may be partially due to
greater precipitation rates.
"Hemlock species are in the car-
rot plant family, so flower clusters
resembling carrot flowers may be
visible in hay," Moechnig said.
"Whorled milkweed is another
weed of concern, but populations
are often not very dense, particu-
larly in areas with taller grass that
may be hayed. Common weed
species, such as kochia, lambsquar-
ters, pigweeds, thistles, and others
can also increase hay nitrate con-
centrations if present in large
quantities."
In addition to unknown weed
seeds and plants in the hay, Gates
says unknown herbicide residues
could also cause problems.
"Grass treated with herbicides
such as picloram (Tordon, Grazon),
aminopyralid (Milestone/Fore-
Front), or clopyralid (Curtail,
Stinger) could still contain residues
of these herbicides that will quickly
pass through livestock and can re-
main in their manure," Gates said.
"Spreading this manure or feeding
bales on fields that may be planted
to broadleaf crops next year could
result in severe crop injury. These
residues could persist in the soil for
2 - 3 years. Therefore, it is impor-
tant to keep manure in pastures if
it is not known exactly what herbi-
cides were applied to the hayfield."
Pictures of noxious weeds and
control recommendations may be
found on iGrow.org and on iPhone
and Android cell phones apps pro-
vided by SDSU. Infestation risk
may also be minimized by careful
management of hay feeding areas.
Drought conditions reduce the
vigor of pasture vegetation increas-
ing bare ground and enhancing
successful weed germination and
establishment. Feeding imported
hay in a restricted area or even in
corrals may contain the area that
needs to be carefully monitored the
following spring.
Concerns of weeds and herbicide
residues do not have to be limiting
factors when purchasing hay. Prop-
erly responding to risks of new
weed infestations or contaminated
manure can enable people to avoid
greater and more costly problems
in the future. To learn more visit

Due to the drought, nitrate toxi-
city is an issue this growing season.
Before cutting silage or feeding for-
ages to livestock, test for nitrates.
SDSU Extension offers a nitrate
quick test for standing forage. In-
terested parties can take forage
samples to the following Extension
Regional Centers; Lemmon,
605.374.4177, Rapid City,
605.394.1722, and Winner,
605.842.1267; and the following
county offices; Charles Mix County
Office, Clark County Office, Dou-
glas County Office, Hamlin County
Office, or Pennington County Of-
fice. Please call before you take
samples to be tested to ensure that
the individual who is trained to do
the testing is available.
Nitrate quick test is an indicator
of presence or absence of nitrate in
forages. If present, producers can
send the sample in for a quantita-
tive analysis or wait for plants to
continue to mature/grow.
Trained personnel are only al-
lowed to do the testing. If you have
any questions on nitrate testing,
contact your local SDSU Extension
Regional Center. For information
on how to evaluate nitrate tests or
other drought resources, visit
