Councilman Brad Jorgensen questioned if Jackson County had turned over the piece of land that economic development had in- quired about. Uhlir stated they had not at this time. The council said they would con- sider the request from economic de- velopment at the budget meeting which will be held at a later date. Jackie Stilwell addressed the council at this time about the Jack- son County Hazard Mitigation Plan. This plan recommends haz- ard mitigation actions that will protect the people and property af- fected by the natural hazards that face the city. The Jackson County Multi-Ju- risdictional Hazard Mitigation Planning Team, Jackson County Emergency Management and the Central South Dakota Enhance- ment District have conducted over a years worth of research and pub- lic meetings to gather information to prevent or minimize disaster im- pacts on the City of Kadoka. The city proposed a motion for approval. Jorgensen questioned ap- proval of the plan stating that the council does not know what the plan consists of. Willert stated that he had been at the meetings during the planning phase. Stilwell encouraged the council to read the plan. Motion was made and carried to approve the Jackson County Hazard Mitagation Plan. Council reports were given at this time. Nathan Riggins ad- dressed the council about Stanley/ Johnson Concrete wanting to pur- chase water from the city. The pro- posed usage from this company would be 80,000-100,000 a day for 40 days. SJC is requesting a tank stand be set up for quicker filling. The city would provide the meter. Riggins stated they would need to order a meter lock. Stilwell contacted West River Lyman Jones to make them aware of the usage and to get an idea as to what the charge rate should be. The cost to SJC will be $500 set fee and $6.00 per thousand gallons. The council raised the question as to who would be responsible if there are any problems with the tank stand or fire hydrant they will be using to fill the tank stand. Ulmen stated any problems caused will be paid by SJC. Patrick Solon asked if there will be an issue if the city has to cut SJC off from the water if the city starts to run short of water. Ulmen again stated that they know if the city runs short SJC will be cut off. Riggins went on to report that the water tower had a leak but has been fixed. Willert gave the street report. He stated the Kadoka Fire Hall is currently being fixed due to water damage. He said the brick on the front of the fire hall is what caused the leakage inside the hall. It has been removed and tin siding will replace the brick. Willert felt the cost of all the re- pairs to the sidewalk in front of the fire hall will exceed the bid they have received. He has contacted Ruby Sanftner about whether the Masons would have any funds to donate to the project. She said they currently do not have the funds to donate. Willert said he would do some more checking into the situa- tion and let the council know. Councilman Cory Lurz stated that the pallet jack at the solid waste station is broke. The pallet jack is used to move the cardboard at the waste station. Lurz has ob- tained a price of a different one. He also stated that some of the fence around the dump needs to be fixed. The council made a motion and mo- tion carried to get a different pallet jack and to purchase fencing sup- plies for the waste station. Tina Williams addressed the council about reunion weekend. She felt it went well. She said the bar has been approached by Lan- don Stout and Bryce VanderMay for sponsorship of their softball team. They currently are wearing softball shirts with Kadoka City Bar on the back. Patty said they had sponsored them last year at the cost of $250.00. The council approved the sponsorship of the softball team. Williams stated that Ann Fu- gates last day will be August 16. The city needs to advertise for an- other part-time bartender. She sug- gested the possibility of three full-time positions. Williams stated that she had penciled it down on the August calendar and it would work. This would also allow the bar employees a couple weekends off a month. The council questioned what the cost would be to the city for a part- time employee versus a full-time employee. A full-time employee would have to be paid benefits plus retirement. The council decided to table the motion until the next meeting. In the meantime, the city will advertise for a part-time bar- tender. Councilman Dick Stolley gave the auditorium and park reports. He said a camera had been put down the sewer line and the pipes are okay for now. He would like to take the money from the budget and use it for lighting at the audi- torium. Billy Jo Eisenbraun will also be checking into the cost of new shower doors for the locker rooms. Stolley said the new flag pole has been installed at the mu- seum. The auditorium floor will be get- ting refinished July 15-19. Due to the toxic fumes from the finish, the city office will be closed during that time. Stolley talked about the girls softball team. He said he had been visiting with L. Jorgensen, who was hired as the coach, and there was little to no interest this year and therefore, there is not a girls softball team this year. Brad Jor- gensen felt there was not the girls out there who wanted to play. He suggested waiting a couple of years to have another team. By then, maybe, there would be an interest again in a girls softball team. Stolley felt L. Jorgensen should be compensated for her efforts at trying to get a team together. The council agreed to pay L. Jorgensen for here time. The swimming pool discussion was held for executive session. The public safety report was given by Arne Lund. He stated the Forrest (Woody) Davis police car has some paint chips on the car. The question is whether to fix them or not? Jorgensen questioned the mileage and year of the police car. It is a 2003 and the cost of repair is not justifiable considering the year and mileage. Jorgensen suggested Davis check into what the cost of having the care vinyl wrapped. Davis stated he would check into the cost. Davis stated their was only one driving under the influence and no fights during reunion weekend. Questions from the council arose as to why there were three police offi- cers standing right next to the fence by the bar during reunion weekend. Willert felt the police presence was excessive. Willert felt Davis could have handled it by himself. Jorgensen questioned why a certain individ- ual had been hired to work as pub- lic safety during reunion weekend. He stated that council had decided in the past that this certain indi- vidual would not be hired again by the city. The first draft of the 2014 budget was presented. The $5,000 being requested by economic devel- opment is not included in the budget. The council decided to set the budget meeting for Monday July 29, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. Ulmen stated the elected official workshop is July 24 at the Ramkota in Pierre. The purpose of this workshop is to provide a basic crash course on local government. Lurz said he would be attending, and Lund stated he will let Ulmen know as soon as possible if he is going. The council entered into execu- tivie session for personnel matters. Once the council had returned to open session, a decision to have a meeting with the pool manager and current lifeguards will be held with Weller and Stolley. The decision to close the pool from July 9-16 was also made. Being there no further business, the council adjourned. --by Rhonda Antonsen The Kadoka City Council met on Monday July 8, 2013 at the city fi- nance office. Mayor Harry Weller called the meeting to order. Min- utes from the previous meeting, bills and the financial statement were approved. The public hearing for a malt/ beverage license was held for Aw! Shucks Cafe and Sunset Grill. Councilman Colby Shuck excused himself from the meeting at this time. Weller asked if there were any proponents or opponents to the application for the license. Councilman Ryan Willert ques- tioned the council as to how many malt/ beverage licenses are allowed within the city. Finance officer Patty Ulmen stated it was up to the discretion of the city. Willert went on to ask Colby Shuck as to what the hours of operation and what kind of establishment Aw! Shucks would be. Shuck went on to say it would be a restaurant setting and the hours of operation had not been finalized just yet. Dick Stolley made a motion to approve the malt/ beverage license and Cory Lurz seconded the mo- tion. The motion carried to approve the malt/ beverage license for Aw! Shucks Cafe. Sunset Grills malt/ beverage ap- plication was reviewed next. Coun- cilman Shuck reentered the meeting at this time. Again, Willert questioned Grant Patterson as to what kind of establishment Sunset Grill would be and what the oper- ating hours would be. Patterson stated that Sunset Grill would be more like a fast food place than a restaurant. He said they would open around 7 or 8 a.m. and closing would be between 10 and 11 p.m. Ulmen questioned whether there will be video lottery in the es- tablishment. Patterson stated it will be coming pending the applica- tion. He needed the malt/beverage license first before he applied for video lottery. Motions were made and the mo- tion carried to approve the malt/ beverage license for Sunset Grill. New business discussion began with the Walton property. Weller stated that Ken and Edna Walton had answered the citys letter about the condition of their prop- erty. The Waltons had stated in their letter that they are currently dis- mantling the house and have a deadline of August 1. They are ask- ing if the city would provide dirt for the east side of their house where it would be used for back fill. Weller asked whether the city should haul dirt for them or if Wal- tons should hire it done. Patrick Solon felt Waltons should hire it done. He has had other requests for the the back fill dirt at the dump, and he has turned down others. He said the dump needs to keep their supply of back fill dirt for the dump. Willert felt the city should hold K. Walton to his deadline for dis- mantling the property. The council agreed, but Shuck felt the city should be fair with the deadline. Weller said he and Ulmen would draft a letter to the Waltons letting them know what the city council had decided. Rusty Olney and JoBeth Uhlir addressed the city council at this time about economic development. Uhlir asked the city council if they would consider budgeting in $5,000 to economic development. Olney stated that Uhlir had addressed the Jackson County commissioners and asked for $5,000. Uhlir stated that Jackson County felt strongly about economic development, but did not feel they could budget in $5,000 for economic development. Olney and Uhlir talked about how economic development has helped one business keep its doors open in the community, and that they have already received three payments back on the first loan. Olney stated since it is a revolv- ing loan that as soon as the money comes back in economic develop- ment can loan that money back out. Economic development has ap- plied for another grant. Olney felt they should know by the end of July. He was slightly pessimistic that they would received another City council addresses abandoned property, approves new malt beverage licenses Church Page July 11, 2013 Kadoka Press Page 2 BELVIDERE COMMUNITY CHURCH Pastor Gary McCubbin 344-2233 Sunday Worship: 9:30 a.m. Coffee & Donuts: 10:30 a.m. Sunday School: 10:45 a.m. Sept. - May OUR LADY OF VICTORY CATHOLIC CHURCH Father Bryan Sorensen Kadoka 837-2219 Mass: Sunday - 11:00 a.m. Confession After Mass INTERIOR COMMUNITY CHURCH Sunday School: 9:30 a.m. Church: 10:30 a.m. EAGLE NEST LIFE CENTER Gus Craven Wanblee 462-6002 Sunday Church: 11:00 a.m. ST.

Read Isaiah 55:1-2 Have you ever found yourself standing in front of the refrigerator, trying to find something to satisfy a vague sense of emptiness or discontent? You arent looking for anything specific, but you know you want to fill a long- ing. Whatever you choose will probably not do the trick, because the empty spot is not in your stomach but in your soul. Whether the substance is food, career, possessions, or relationships, our souls are continually trying to find satisfaction. But nothing in this world will fill the void. Since we were created for relationship with God, He placed deep within us a yearning for Him. Though we may not recognize it as such, everyone knows the feeling of dissatisfaction that at times seeps into our souls. Any time we seek fulfillment with worldly substitutes, disappointment and disillusionment are sure to follow. There are two possible menus from which we can choose to fill our emptiness. Satans menu is long and full of enticing things that seem to promise gratification and pleasure. These could include riches, relationships, prominence, acceptance, or recognition. Whatever he offers looks like the good life that will bring content--ment, but its a deception. Gods menu, on the other hand, is quite small. In fact, it lists just one itemJesus. He is the only one who can fill the void. Have you found the satisfaction you seek, or is there always a vague sense of discontent in your soul? Make Jesus your highest priority, and spend focused, unhurried time with Him, Hell satisfy you as nothing else can.

Burns, age 90 of Philip, S.D., died July 7, 2013, at the Hans P. Peterson Memorial Hospital in Philip, surrounded by her family. Jean Mae Burns, the first child of Frank and Joy Keve Hauk, was born May 18, 1923. Her childhood was spent with her siblings, George, Max and Mary Joy Hauk on a farm northwest of Grindstone. She worked her way through high school by being a mother's helper to the Bartholmew family and roomed at the old Winchester Hotel. Shirley Burns introduced her to Homer Burns at a dance in Milesville and they married several months later. Dancing remained a lifelong source of happiness. Jean and Homer had four children: Bobby, Jack, Charlotte and Mara- lynn. Jean took great pride in her homemaking skills. Keeping her home clean and tidy was of great importance to her. In fact, her nephews were pretty sure that when she wiped their faces there was Clorox on the washcloth! She loved making pies, bread, jelly, and pickles. Her garden was her special passion. Canning and freezing the produce gave her great joy. Her hobbies included embroidering and making rugs. A local lady who roomed with Jean and Homer when she went to high school, re- called that Jean always "freshened up" and changed her housedress when it was time for Homer to come home from work. A true child of the 1930s, Jean frugally saved and stored anything that might have value or serve a practical purpose in the future. When faced with a new domestic challenge there was always some stored item that could be modified or adapted to solve the problem. The variety of uses for a popsicle stick was endless! No need to run out and buy something new! In her younger years, she was active in community efforts to im- prove the quality of life in Philip. Among her activities she served as the first president of the hospital auxiliary. When Homer died suddenly, she carried on with her family respon- sibilities since her four children were all still at home. In addition, she ran Homer's business with the help of Red Couch. Howard Pihlaja, Jean's compan- ion of many years, survives her. Jean is also survived by her chil- dren, Bobby (Gerry) Sloat, Jack (Marlene) Burns, Charlotte (Larry) Gabriel and Maralynn Burns. In addition, she is survived by 12 grandchildren, John (Carol) Os- burn, Doug (Krista) Osburn, Julie (Chad) Callahan, Andy (Samantha) Sloat, Chris (Misti) Burns, Jeff (Heather) Burns, Robyn (Steve) Brazelton, Mindy (Lloyd) Metzger, Jeff (Heather) Gabriel, Danielle (Josh) Carlson, Dustin (Lynette) Hummel, and Cassi (Alan) Rislov; her great-grandchildren include, Eddie and Jannine Osburn; Anak- toria, Shane and Baylee Callahan; Makenzie, Anthony and Zachary Sloat; Nathan and Jace Brazelton; Patrick and Will Burns; Taylor, Brooke and Katie Burns; Sage, Cedar, Ember and Latham Gabriel; Cadan and Gage Carlson; Brayden and Maelee Hummel; and Rio and Ali Rislov; her brother, Max (Nancy) Hauk; sister, Mary Joy Hauk; two sisters-in-law, Peggy Hauk and Mary Martha Burns; and numerous nephews and nieces. Jean was preceded in death by her husbands Homer Burns and Jud Fennell; her parents Frank and Joy (Keve) Hauk; her brother George Hauk; grandchildren Christy and Bill Osburn; and great-grandchildren Brace Allen and Paxton Ryder Gabriel. Services were held Wednesday, July 10, at the United Church in Philip with Pastor Kathy Chesney officiating. Music was provided by Marilyn Millage, pianist, and Cindy Nuzum, vocalist. Ushers were Josh Carlson, Andy Sloat, Chad Callahan and Alan Rislov. Pallbearers were Chris and Jeff Burns, John and Doug Osburn, Jeff Gabriel and Dustin Hummel. Interment was be at the Ma- sonic Cemetery in Philip. In lieu of flowers, a memorial has been established. Arrangements were with the Rush Funeral Home of Philip.

Ann Johnson (Age 8) James and Marjorie Letellier at- tended the funeral of Charity Weiss Monday morning, and in the after- noon were in Kadoka to get some parts. Thursday the fourth, they were in Pierre, spending time with the Beckwith family, and also en- joyed the band and the fireworks at the park. When they returned home that night, Sue Larson, Julie Letellier and Andrea Beckwith were at their home. The three also spent Friday with them. Jason Lehman was home for the long Fourth of July weekend. The Lehmans spent a relaxing fourth at home, and then in the evening went up to the Butte and enjoyed watching fireworks from the sur- rounding towns; they saw fire- works from Murdo, Kadoka, White River, Parmelee, Norris and the Rosebud Casino. That sounds like quite the lookout point! Jean and Ace Kary were among those at the funeral of Albert Jans Thursday, June 27. Eric and Rae Staab of Kansas came for a visit that weekend, and were here to at- tend the Weiss funeral with Jean on Monday, July 1. That afternoon Jean and Paul Kary joined them when they went to Rapid City and toured the museum at the School of Mines, and also did a few other ac- tivities, ending with supper at the Golden Corral. Eric and Rae Beth left for home Tuesday morning. The Karys had a picnic in the pasture on the Fourth of July, and listened to the coyotes serenade them there that evening. Friday evening Brant had gone out to check things, and was greeted by a not so welcome sight as he re- turned to the house. There on the step was a big rattlesnake, which is no more. Erin Heinert spent a few days home with her folks, Gary and Anne Heinert, and helped cut hay Saturday morning. That afternoon she went to Rapid City to attend the wedding of a friend. Ed and Louise Heinert of Sparks, NE, hosted a cookout for family and friends on the Fourth of July. Gary, Anne, Marilyn, Stanley and Mau- reece Heinert, and Charissa and family joined the throng there, en- joying the cookout and the fire- works afterward. Pastor Denke was pleased with all the help of the ladies of the church and community at the fu- neral for Charity Weiss. Monday, July 1, Maxine Allard attended the Weiss funeral with Dorothy Bligh. Thursday morning Maxine got the mower going, and shortened the grass in her yard, which she had purposely let go to seed, hoping to thicken the lawn in some barish spots. That afternoon daughter Sharon arrived from Spearfish and Friday they headed for Gregory for the memorial serv- ice of Maxines cousins, Warren and Ruth Dale. They returned home that evening, and later June Ring and grandsons Matthew and Michael visited. Saturday Sharon woke up early and mowed the yard before heading back home to Spearfish. Saturday Maxine had a call and chat from son Bruce from California. She also had a call from Maxine Faber, a school friend from years ago. Alberta helped get the hay all mowed before heading back to Yankton a while back, and since then Clifford got it all baled, but now needs to get it all in and stacked. Jan Rasmussen was a supper guest of the Lehmans on the 4th of July. Saturday Kate Rasmussen joined her for the day and was a supper guest that evening. Jeromy, Rachel, Cooper and Memphis Sweeney of Cresco, IA, arrived at the home of Jessie and Bruce Ring Monday evening, bring- ing Stephanie back with them. Tuesday evening Bruce and June Ring went to Rapid City, ran some quick errands, and then went to the airport to pick up Michael and Matthew Ring of Texas. Wednesday the Sweeney family spent the day in the Hills. Thurs- day Bruce and Jessie hosted the 4th of July cookout at their home, and fortunately had most of the food prepared and had the grill going to do the meat, as the light- ning strike took out the power, and it didnt come back on until they were done eating. When it was dark, they enjoyed the fireworks that the Sweeneys had brought along, and also enjoyed the fire- works that Cheyenne was setting off at Dan and Lori Schmidts home. The Sweeney family headed back to Iowa Friday morning, as Jeromy had a high school reunion to attend that evening. The lightening strike on Thurs- day evening had fried the surge protector on the television at Junes house so Bruce came to fix it. Once Bruce removed that, which was no easy task with all the cords and wires back there, and plugged things into a different surge protec- tor, the TV worked once more. Fri- day afternoon Stephanie and Ryan came over with Bruce and Michael and Matthew got a break from weeding the garden, and rode along with them to watch as they cleared away some of the beavers work on the OBryan place. The two Janice Rings were in Rapid City Saturday to attend the open house reception for newly married Jonathan and Mary Ring. They were married in Iowa in May and this reception was planned at Marsha Rings home for those who were unable to make it to their wedding in May.

As already mentioned, Cheyenne sup- plied the fireworks show. Saturday Cheyenne and family were in Mis- sion, as Jace was in a seventh and eighth grade basketball tourna- ment there. He is on the Blackpipe team, and they took second place. Way to go, guys! Glen Krogman came from Fargo to spend the fourth with his folks, Richard and Noreen Krogman. He got in on some haying while here, as there is still about a weeks worth to go. He left for home on Sunday. The Master Gardeners met at the home of Nancy Storm on Satur- day, south and west of Winner. Those attending from around here were Rose West, Jeannine Wood- ward, Donna Adrian, JoAnn Letel- lier, and Donita Denke. A lesson was given on succulent plants. The Howard Heinert family at- tended the funeral of Charity Weiss on Monday, July 1. They are busy with haying, but Chris and Beau did take time off to go to Valentine on the fourth. Friday Howard, Nette Chris and Beau were supper guests of Chris and Dawn Letellier. The Bill Hubers had family over for the fourth, and had fireworks afterward. They are starting hay- ing. Kendas nephews, Christian and Blaise Nelson, have been spending some time with them. Jan and June Ring headed up to Kadoka on Monday afternoon, June 24, to catch a ride with two ladies from Rapid City. After con- vincing the ladies that they really wanted to ride with them, and not follow them down I-90 to Sioux Falls, they returned to Kadoka to leave Junes car at Tashas, and rode with the ladies to Sioux Falls. They all caught the bus chartered by the LWML Tuesday morning, and arrived at the National LWML convention in Pittsburgh, Pennsyl- vania Wednesday afternoon. The convention Quenched by the Water lasted through Sunday noon. It was a great convention. The bus brought us back to Sioux Falls Monday afternoon and we rode home with the ladies from Rapid City as far as Kadoka, and then picked up Junes car and ar- rived home by midnight. There are more bus tales, but thats enough for now. Congratulations to Shawntae Moran and Brandon Campbell of Pierre on the birth of their precious little daughter, Alexis Tonya. The little lady arrived June 26, 2013 and weighed in at nine pounds, three ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. Proud adopted grandma is Linda Totton of Pierre, her grand- parents are the late Tonya Totton and the late Joe Moran, Richard and Mary Pease of Pierre, and Chip Campbell also of Pierre. Great grandmothers are Karen Totton of Clear Water, Florida, and Molly Moran of White River. Great-great grandparents are Erna Totton of Sioux Falls and the late Richard Totton formerly of Norris. This is Ernas first great-great grandchild. Bread making is an old family tradition around here. Some of my earliest memories are of Mom and Grandma placing a tall square stool in the middle of the kitchen and plunking a big old bread pan on top of it. I think it was just an oversized dish pan, but it was large. From there, they added in- gredients until the mixture was thick enough. Kneading followed until the dough was smooth. As I recall, they scalded some milk first off so it had time to cool. Then they proofed the yeast which involved dissolving it in warm water to which a little sugar had been added. If the mixture started to bubble and expand, that proved it was still good and would do the job. After milk, water, sugar, salt and Crisco (I think, or lard) were mixed together and the yeast was added, the flour was worked in little by little until the dough was elastic and of the right consistency. Next, the pan was put in a warm place, covered with a white dish towel and allowed to rise. Then it was punched down and usually made mostly into loaves, but sometimes into coffee cake, buns, or cinnamon rolls. It was at this point that I liked to steal pinches of the dough and eat it. I liked it quite a lot, but Mom and Grandma frowned if I ate too much of it. I think they suspected it would rise in my stomach and blow me apart or something. It never did, of course, but they had some bias against my eating too much raw dough. Given my upbringing, I guess it was only natural that I should take up bread making on my own once I got settled back in at the ranch after college and the Navy. I started simply and learned as I went along. With my love of exper- imentation, I naturally tried all different kinds of bread from sour dough to French to whole-grain and raisin. There were some disas- ters and some triumphs. After Id learned all I wanted to know about the various permutations, I more or less settled down to plain old white bread that I mostly made into buns but also into cinnamon and caramel rolls. Im still doing that whenever the freezer runs low. I have now gone more low-key, however. At first, Id mix up a huge batch of dough using about twelve cups of flour. That would make three-dozen buns. Now Ive become sort of lazy and throw the ingredi- ents in a bread machine and let that contraption grind away mix- ing and so forth. After the dough has risen nicely in the machine and is about to be baked into a loaf, I turn the thing off, remove the dough, and make it into twelve buns. Those last me quite a while for sandwiches and eating with meals. I keep most of them in the freezer and take them out little by little so they dont get old and dry before I get around to using them. Oddly enough, I didnt eat a lot of bread as a kid although it was good with peanut butter, jelly and honey (all three at once) as my grandma used to make for me. Dis- interest in bread at that time might be partly because Im largely of German descent, and we tend to be into hearty meaty foods more than fluffy stuff like bread. I happened to marry a Norwegian, however, and that bunch of people thinks no meal is really complete if it doesnt include bread. It must be a contagious attitude since it has rubbed off somewhat on me. Most of my meals now include some form of bread. The thoughts of another group of people have apparently rubbed off on me too. That would be the Bohemians or Czechs with their kolaches. These goodies are basi- cally bits of dough with a sweet filling such as prunes, jelly, or a kind of pie filling. There are two groups of these people who do not agree with each other about the proper way a kolache is to be made. One bunch says you just put a flat piece of dough on a pan, let it rise, put a thumbprint in the dough, and fill it with sweet stuff before baking. Others are just as adamant that a real kolache is a flattened piece of dough with the filling put on top and the corners pulled up and pinched together. Both are good, but I prefer making the former since it is easier and quite fine with a topping of sour cream, sugar, and cinnamon. I make those a lot. Anyway, bread making is a sat- isfying endeavor. Dough is fun to work with. The whole process also makes the house smell nice while youre at it, and the end result often tastes really good. What more can you ask? Bread Making Lookin Around by Syd Iwan Larry and Joy Dolezal, John and Jamie Dolezal and children, and Jackie Schofield attended a family reunion at Carmen and Jim Nemecs home in Belle Fourche over the weekend. Carmen and Jims children, Dale, Joanna, and Kayla, all of Belle plus Beth of Den- ver, were there. Also attending were Sarah DeVries of Rapid City, Trisha Bork of rural Midland, Joys dad, Jim Ramey, and Joys sister, Jane, and her husband, Bryan, of rural Deadwood. Joys brother, John, and his wife, Anita, of Sacra- mento, CA, were there with their four kids and families. Those kids are James and his four children of Inman, KA, Holly and her hus- band, Russ, and three children of Sacramento, Dory and her hus- band, Mario, and their two children of Los Angeles, CA. Joys cousin, John Alden, and his wife, Paula, and their daughter of Tucson, AZ, were also there. There were twelve children under twelve which kept things exciting. After a pancake breakfast served up by Jim Nemec, John Rameys clan headed on to Bozeman, MT, to see (and/or trau- matize) Joys sister, Ann. Those not heading to Bozeman headed on home. Shawn Fox of Mobridge and his wife and daughter, Jodi and Bailey, were home for the weekend before this. It was sort of a 4th-of-July get-together with his parents, Kenny and Roxie, and his brother, Wade, and family. They went up on a high place and set off some fire- works. Rodney Sharp later said he enjoyed the fireworks too since he was in a nearby field doing some haying after dark. This week, son Jesse is expected on Monday at Kenny and Roxies. Monday is his birthday and he decided to cele- brate it here. Roxie recalled that it was 113 degrees on the day he was born in Spearfish some years ago and when they were living at Alzada, MT. Jim and DJ Addison and Andy Schofield spent part of Sunday un- scrambling DJ and Andys cattle which had mixed themselves to- gether. In the process, Jim lost his cell phone but was happily able to later find it. Also on Sunday, Addis- ons had unexpected guests in the form of their cousins, Mickey and Stanley Sandy, of Australia. Their mom was Edith Addison who was Stanleys daughter. They had a place south of Okaton and still do have some land here that they come back to check on from time to time. The Sandys also have an 88- year-old aunt they like to come visit occasionally. Georgann was in Wall on Sunday running around some barrels with her horse. Jami has been working several days a week at 1880 Town this summer to gain a little spending money. Clair Bitting had a checkup in Sturgis this week complete with EKG. The report was favorable in this exam which is routinely done. His daughter, Kolette, reports that she isnt doing a lot of gardening this year except for some tomato plants plus some cabbage and hot peppers. The hot peppers are needed for salsa if the tomato plants produce enough. Haying is in progress at the Bittings between rain showers. Scot and Jodie OBryan went on vacation over the 4th, 5th, and 6th of July. They had some cabins near Whitewood where they and various family members gathered. All their kids but Wacey were there, and he couldnt come since he works in air conditioning there in Texas, and July in Texas is fairly warm so air conditioning is a hot product. Son Scotty and family came from Ft. Worth, TX, Grady also from Texas, and Taylor and family from Yank- ton. Daughter Faye and kids came from Rapid City. The day before the reunion, Faye moved from one place to another in Rapid City with the help of her brothers. They got it all done in one day. Jodies sister and a friend from Oklahoma were also there. Lorna and George Moore came up for part of the time as well. Besides several cabins, they erected a tent for some of the kids to stay in one night. It only lasted one night, however, since ghost stories were told before bed- time which made the night some- what unsettled. Safer quarters were deemed more appropriate the next night. On another day, Jodie and her sister went to Mobridge to visit their dad. They also visited their mom at the Kadoka Nursing Home. Jodie said this was the first time she could remember of ever actually going on a vacation and it was fun. It was also tiring so quite a bit of Sunday was devoted to rest- ing up so work at 1880 Town could continue on Monday. Some of Scot and Jodies family members came back to Belvidere and stayed until Sunday. Mark and Nicci DeVries and sons were visited over the 4th by Marks folks, Jim and Lynn, and his brother, Tim, from Kansas. Niccis dad from Idaho was also there. Jim, Lynn, and Tim stayed over at Velma and Wallys old house. Part of the time was spent repairing haying equipment which had broken down. It wasnt dry enough out to hay much for a few days, but the equipment needed to be ready when it was drier. Mark said the baseball season is still in progress but activity was sus- pended over the week of the 4th. It will resume this week. He also said Jim used to come to help with hay- ing quite a bit, but Marks sons are now old enough to help with that which frees Jim to come and go more as he pleases. Nancy Schofield reports that it has been very busy with tourists at 1880 Town lately. Over the week- end, they had three bus tours come through which added a lot of visi- tors. Kirby and the Dolezals have been trying to hay when the fields are dry enough. Theyve been get- ting quite a bit of moisture. Kirby has been fighting potato bugs in his garden but thinks he has them under control at the moment. He will have a checkup this week about the cancer he frequently has to fight, but he has been feeling fairly good in recent times. CeII: 60S-441-2SS9 - Res: 60S-SS9-2S?S - Fax: 60S-SS9-32?S S20 E.

What a week and the 4th of July celebration was great, well except for the little shower we had during lunch hour. Some of our res- idents endured the weather and enjoyed their lunch underneath the gazebo. Austin Romero grilled the brats and hot dogs and they were awesome! Shorty Ireland went out for the day with family and the that evening he took in their fantastic fireworks show. Anyone who hasnt seen their performance should take it in next year at the baseball field its absolutely awesome! First off, I want to welcome Joy Parker back home.

The group also stayed and visited with Frank and Myrths daughter that lives in this area. Norma Hopkins enjoyed The 4th of July with grandkids Robert, Jen- nifer, Isiah, Klarissa and Mathew. The young man that was so re- spectful last week was accompa- nied by his young friend and can I blame age, I do not seem to remem- ber her name. Our dining room tables are dec- orated by Lois Pettyjohn this month with yellow sunflowers in a vase and a doily. Chris and Anitalyn returned home last week and her dad has been released from the hospital. Thought of the week: Accept the challenges so you may feel the ex- hilaration of victory. Last Monday morning, I went over the the care center to listen to Lois Pettyjohn play the piano for the residents while they sang, but unfortunately Lois came down with a bug and was unable to play. The residents started the week right anyway with their hour of singing. The ambulance took Joy Parker for a quick ride to the hospital. I stopped at the care center Satur- day evening, and the sandman had her full attention. The sandman also had the attention of Bunny, Clara Belle, Ruth, Emma and Edith I noticed. The quilters, Margie, Susie, Betty, Marie and Lova, were busy this last Wednesday afternoon. When I stopped, Shirley had slipped home to visit her company. My apology to Margie for writing too much. Things are fine now. Liz and helpers here at the Gateway Apartments put on a good July 4 feed in the community room for everyone to enjoy. I was busy with Chris and Ani- talyn and boys.

Call 6058372259 Buy Rent Sell Get it done through the Classifieds Call 837-2259 The Value of Disease Resistance During a recent session of col- lecting wheat samples for disease analysis with SDSU Small Grains Pathologist, Shaukat Ali, and Ag Research Manager, Rick Geppert, we found a field containing signif- icant leaf rust. A quick phone call to the producer revealed that the field was planted to a variety known for desirable characteristics he considered important for that field, but not resistance to leaf rust. The producer knew the variety was susceptible to leaf rust, planned to make a fungicide appli- cation, and did, but not before there was some level of infection. We made visits to several other fields in the area and found little or no leaf rust. In this time of relatively high commodity prices and the proven effectiveness of fungicides, fungi- cide applications have become somewhat commonplace. For some producers its not a question of whether they will apply a fungi- cide to their wheat, but when, which product, and/or how many times. This raises the question of the value to todays farmers of the ef- forts of pioneers in wheat breeding like Norman Borlaug and Edgar McFadden, who developed wheat varieties with resistance to rust. After hearing multiple research re- ports citing the effectiveness of fungicide applications at a meeting in the past year, I somewhat face- tiously asked the question, is dis- ease resistance still valuable? The answer, which I expected, is obvi- ously, yes. For most of the fields we sam- pled on the day referred to earlier, resistance to leaf rust was working well, and could very well make a fungicide application unnecessary. While leaf, stripe and stem rust are currently all confirmed to be present in South Dakota this year, many wheat fields remain rela- tively free of those diseases. This lack of disease is partly due to the lack of rain many areas have been experiencing, but also to the resist- ance bred into the varieties planted in those fields. If wet weather does prompt fungicide ap- plications, the disease resistance provides some of the protection as no fungicide is 100% effective, can be applied at the ideal time, or lasts long enough to keep the plants completely free of infection. Questions are still coming in as to whether fungicide applications can still be made to wheat fields. At least in south-central South Dakota, about all of the spring and winter wheat fields are in the milk stage or later, well past the labeled time for fungicide applications. The good news is, once wheat is at the hard-dough stage, which isnt far off, late-season disease infec- tions will no longer be harmful. Calendar 8/20-22: DakotaFest, Mitchell Winner Regional Extension Center Bob Fanning, Plant Pathology Field Specialist 605-842-1267 When Leafy Spurge's yellow flowers begin to bloom, landown- ers can evaluate the effectiveness of their control program, says Paul Johnson, SDSU Extension Agron- omy Field Specialist. "If you have been doing a good job at control in the past, it may be a little slower and, if you have been doing a really good job, there may even be fewer plants out there than last year," Johnson said. He adds that the only way to get spurge under control is to be on it every year and get the root re- serves depleted so the plants will start to die. "A cold winter helps to take out the spurge when the root reserves have been depleted," Johnson said. "As soon as the yellow flowers are out it is time to start spraying." Johnson says the control win- dow is only about one month be- fore there will be viable seed in the plant. "If you also have thistles in with the spurge you may want to wait a little until thistles are at bud to make sure you get good coverage and control on both of the weeds," he said. But again, Johnson says be careful not to wait too long. "Waiting too long only allows the root reserves to build back up in the plant, and then you will not make any progress on getting rid of the plants. Instead, they will come back stronger than ever," he said. New Control Tools Available Based on SDSU test plots in Moody County a new compound called Perspective looks like it should be as good as Tordon in controlling Leafy Spurge, but Johnson says this compound has fewer use-restrictions; and it is more environmentally friendly. "It should be able to be used in more areas that have a shallow ground water problem," he said. "This is the first new product that has effect on thistles and spurge that has been developed in the last 40 years." At present, Perspective is not labeled on any areas that are cropped or hayed, Johnson says until more labeling is done, it will be limited on where it can be used. Also some grass injury will need to be tolerated with its use. "Usually the grass will recover the next year," he said. "And, I al- ways want readers to know that use of the product's names does not imply endorsement. Informa- tion is based on SDSU research and observations." Before use, landowners need to verify information on current prod- uct labels prior to application. To learn more, visit iGrow.org. New control available for leafy spurge
