Amanda Schofield

Amanda Schofield has joined

the Ravellette Publications, Inc.
ad staff, based out of Philip.
Schofield will work with clients
between Rapid City and Pierre,
and for right now, focus on the
Murdo Coyote, Kadoka Press and
Pioneer Review offices.
Schofield has an extensive background in advertising and graphic
design. She attended Southeast

Technical Institute, Sioux Falls,

where she pursued a graphic design degree. While in Sioux Falls
she worked at an ad agency and
took classes.
From there she worked at a few
ad agencies, which lead her to
Austin, Texas. She wanted to return to her roots so back to South
Dakota she came. She has been
working with KELOLand TV for
the past eight months.
Wanting to get closer to family
she took her current position.
Schofield said her favorite aspect of advertising is interacting
and getting to know the people.
She also likes how rewarding it is
to bring someones vision of an ad
to life.
With Amanda's experience and
vision of promotion, she will be a
great asset to our sales staff, said
Don Ravellette, publisher
The most challenging aspect she
said is fitting all the information
the advertiser wants into a reader
friendly and eye-catching ad.
Im very excited to join the
team at Ravellette Publications,
said Schofield. And she is eager to
get out and meet the people.

First day of school

Smiles and laughter filled the hallways and classrooms on the first
day of school, Monday, August 25, in the Kadoka Area School District.
The students were eager to see their friends and their classrooms and
to begin the new school year.

The kindergarten boys started with a fun game of Rock, Paper, Scissors.
Karson Eisenbraun (L), Carter Kendrick, McCoy Bonenberger, Jarrett
Hutchinson, and Jace Grimes.

Kreg Stoddard and his teacher, Dana Eisenbraun, unpack his school supplies from his backpack to get ready for the day.

Making name tags was the first task in the junior kindergarten room.
Melissa Huber (L), Judah Huber, Janice Allen-Perkins, Lilly Uhlir, and
Jo Beth Uhlir work together to make crayon name tags.

Ready for Kadoka and Wanblee

June Huston director for
local Farm Service Agency 21st CCLC After-school Progam
Del Bartels
After a little more than a year
as acting county executive director
for the Farm Service Agency office
in Philip, June Huston is now the
official director.
Having lived on a ranch her
whole life and now starting her
28th year in the FSA office under
various other capacities, she has
completed required courses, online training and work with the
district director to become the
county director for the FSA office
for Haakon and Jackson counties.
I started as a temporary to
work three months, and here I
am, said Huston. I enjoy working with the people. To be able to
help them when we have disasters.
According to its website, the
United States Department of Agricultures Farm Service Agency
service centers are designed to be
a single location where customers
can access the services provided
by the Farm Service Agency, Natural Resources Conservation
Service, and the Rural Development agencies. The FSAs primary mission is to help South
Dakota's farmers and ranchers secure the highest possible financial
assistance from USDA programs
and play a vital role to the economic survival of South Dakota's
rural communities.
We implement farm programs
for governmental subsidies, explained Huston. There are 55 offices in South Dakota, with some
representing several counties, all
under the state office in Huron. A
qualifying landowner may go to
whichever office they wish, not
necessarily the closest.
Huston said that her office has
about 850 farm/ranch operations
total in both counties that participate. There are other farms and
ranches that may qualify, but
some of those dont participate in
the programs. There is no stated
minimum size for land, but paperwork is needed to prove the
landowner is actively engaged for
income other than a hobby.
My least favorite part of the job
is all the red tape and jumping
through the hoops, said Huston.

The school year has started and

that means the Kadoka and Wanblee 21st CCLC After-school Program is just around the corner!
Both programs will be starting on
Monday, September 8. Kadokas
program will start immediately
after school is dismissed (3:48
p.m.) and go until 5:30 p.m. Wanblees program will start at 4:30
p.m. at the CAP building and go
until 6:00 p.m. Program will run
Monday-Thursday and on designated Fridays. Calendars will be

Del Bartels
June Huston and her staff of the Haakon/Jackson Farm Service Agency
help implement farm and ranch programs for producers.
I probably didnt give Duke Westerberg enough credit. Westerberg
retired as the previous Haakon
/Jackson FSA director.
Huston said that the office communicates with landowners a lot
by email. There are also informational meetings, newspaper articles and several small articles out
constantly over the radio. But, it
is still by word of mouth that
seems to work best for and by
landowners. In coffee shops and
other places, they are the best
communications system, said
Huston.
With the delayed passing of the
current Farm Bill, Huston and her
staff are going back retroactively
to implement programs for the
local disasters in 2012 and 2013.
The staff includes Don Weller,
farm loan manager, Kyle Bachand, farm loan officer, Colleen
Peterson, program technician,

Tonya Kramer, program technician, Tanya McIlravy, program

technician, and Tessa Stout, temporary
program
technician.
Stouts staying on as more than a
temporary, as Huston was back in
1986, is subject to Congresss
funding, Hopefully we get to keep
her, said Huston.
Right now some of the more
pressing programs being worked
on include the Livestock Forage
Program for drought loss in 20122013. The Livestock Incentive
Program is for people who have
lost livestock in weather related
events. And, every year producers
must certify what is being done
with their crops how much
acreage going to hay, corn, wheat,
etc. through compliance with
acreage reporting. For these and
other programs, contact the FSA
office at 605-859-2186 ext 2

sent home with the children so you

will know what days there will be
program. Both after-school programs are open to students in
Kindergarten through the eighth
grade.
The 21st CCLC after-school program offers enrichment activities
in reading, math, science, and
technology. Students are also
given the opportunity to work on
homework and classroom projects.
If you would like your child to
attend, please fill out the enroll-

ment forms that have been sent

home with the students in grades
K-5. Parents who would like their
middle school child to attend,
please pick up a form from the
after-school room or the schools elementary office. Please return the
forms to school as soon as possible.
We need your childs information
before they can attend program.

Editorial
Lookin Around | Syd Iwan
Diligence
My dad must have been a diligent man, or at least he was according to Solomon. King Solomon
wrote, A lazy man wont even
dress the game he gets while hunting, but the diligent man makes
good use of everything he finds.
Dad, in fact, was heavily into recycling way before it was fashionable.
Even today, close to thirty years
after his death, you can still see evidence of his ability to find a useful
purpose for whatever he had.
Gates are a case in point.
In the barn and corral, there are
countless gates that Papa put together from scrap lumber left over
from other projects. Those are
somewhat interesting to observe,
but even more fascinating are the
multitude of gate fasteners in use.
They might be wooden or metal,
they might slide back and forth, or
a bolt or other piece of metal might
have to slide into a slot or be hanging from a chain for poking into a
hole. When Dad made a new gate,
you might have to study it just a bit
before deciding how to work the
fastener to get through. The barn,
for instance, has about four gates
and eleven doors. Three doors have
latches that were purchased for closure, but the rest are originals of
some sort or other. One is a simple
chain that goes over a nail, but the
rest are all unique and different.
Oddly enough, when you go to
our river place, you come across the
same sort of thing when going
through gates and doors, but those

arent Dads work. Those are Teds.

The process must be contagious or
taught by example. Im not sure,
but the outcome is the same. You
have to look a bit before deciding
how they work. Ted, at this point,
has been on the place about as long
as Dad was so there are many examples of his handiwork too.
Dad, of course, lived through the
depression of the Dirty Thirties
and also the rationing of the Second World War. Both promoted recycling and getting by with what
you have. Such experiences are apt
to cause you to save everything
even after the complete necessity
for it is no longer there.
What is more, being raised by
such a person is apt to instill similar qualities in the offspring. My recycling ability is not quite up to
that of my parents, but it pops out
now and then. I certainly have a
hefty stock of stuff lying around
that I may never find a good use
for, but then on the other hand I
might. You just never know.
I have even been known to recycle paper. If I print something on
paper with the computer and then
cut off the small printed part, I
save the remainder for notes and so
on. There are various sizes of leftover paper here around me as I
write. Neither do I ever throw away
a paper towel until I have put it to
very good use. This can be aggravating to my spouse who finds it
somewhat tacky to have paper towels lying about here and there. As a
result, I tend to hide my partiallyused towels. Sometimes, just for

Driving through South Dakota

this week, you could see that folks
are making good progress on small
grains throughout the state.
Theres a lot of wheat and barley
stubble already out there. And
many farmers Ive spoken with are
thinking its going to be a pretty
strong soybean and corn harvest
come September-October.
While were only beginning to
get in the field, grain elevators are
already filling up and finding it
extremely difficult to get the rail
cars necessary to empty the bins.
Its pushing the basis or how
much the elevator charges producers for transportation, storage,
and other operational costs
higher and higher, undermining
the already deflated prices. Ive
farmed nearly all my life. I understand how frustrating it is to see a
great crop come in the hopper and
know its just not worth what it
should be. We have to resolve this
backlog.
This winter was tough, which
compounded delays early on, and
with many locomotives being
pulled to North Dakota to move
oil, the railroads never returned to
business as usual. I have met
with Burlington Northern Santa
Fe (BNSF), Canadian Pacific, and
the new Rapid City, Pierre & East-

ern (RCP&E) and have had very

frank conversations about the
level of service in our state.
Progress is being made, but its far
from whats needed to get our commodities to market this fall.
BNSF and Canadian Pacific
have been providing the Surface
Transportation Board, which offers oversight of the rail industry,
with the required status reports
that I have been closely reviewing.
More information is needed than
initial reporting requirements
mandated, however, so I was glad
to see the Board come forward in
mid-August with updated requirements.
More specifically, when the line
was sold to RCP&E earlier this
year, Canadian Pacific agreed to
help supplement the smaller railway with locomotives and cars.
While RCP&E has requested 500
cars from Canadian Pacific per
week, they receive an average of
just 300 to 400, far less than what
is necessary to empty the elevators. As a result, the Board is requiring Canadian Pacific to lay
out how they plan to get RCP&E
the 500 cars per week that they
need.
Additionally, Canadian Pacific
will be required to report the number of locomotives moving inbound
and outbound from the RCP&E
system onto the Canadian Pacific
system. With this information, we
can make sure that when cars are

Letter to the Editor

kicks and after having used a paper
towel to the full extent of its usefulness, I just let it lie on the counter.
Then I lay bets as to how long it
will stay there after wife Corinne
spies it. Not long, as a general rule,
but it varies. Corinne isnt generally wasteful either, but she does
value tidiness.
The kitchen can be a particular
challenge in getting the full use out
of everything. Take those nifty
plastic containers that sliced meat
comes in. I currently have a larger
stock of the silly things then I could
ever conceivably use. Oh, wait.
They could be terribly handy for
freezing garden produce. Maybe Id
better plant a big garden next year
so I can utilize them in freezing
beans, beets, peas and corn. Id better not throw them out just yet.
Next year might be a banner year
for raising veggies. I do occasionally throw out a used Cool-Whip
container, but only after Ive used it
several times, as a general rule.
One drawback to saving lots of
things just in case is that you can
easily get inundated with stuff. Occasionally you have to bite the bullet and throw items away that are
completely unnecessary. Its hard.
It may almost break your heart,
but sometimes you simply have to
do it. Perhaps when I empty that
plastic container of sliced turkey
today, Ill just go wild and throw it
away. Maybe I will. Maybe I wont.
Only time will tell. After all, I do
want to be the kind of diligent person Solomon would appreciate.

available, a locomotive is there to

move them down the line.
Meanwhile, BNSF will need to
provide an expanded plan on their
efforts to deal with the coming
harvest as well as show performance for grain shuttle trains by region.
These new requirements are intended to give shippers and producers more relevant and accurate
information as we approach the
harvest peak while also putting
down markers so railroads can be
held more accountable for meeting
the needs of farmers in South
Dakota.
The situation is improving.
Rail companies have made significant investments and have committed to even greater ones. But
theyre not ready for this years
harvest.
I know farmers are frustrated
and Ive spoken to many who are
looking to build or find alternative
storage options as the rail companies resolve the backlog. I understand what its like and Im
committed to ensuring railroads
follow through on the promises
theyve made to put more grain
cars and locomotives on the tracks
in South Dakota. I will continue
to put pressure on BNSF and
Canadian Pacific to do all they can
to move our commodities to market this harvest. I know producers are relying on it.

[EDITORS NOTE: The following

letter was written and submitted
before the August 21 issue was released.]
I want to share my thoughts
about what I read in THE
PRESS [Kadoka School district
considers property purchase Aug.
7]
First of all, I think it is about
the dumbets thing I have heard of
by trying to buy a piece of business
property that is a business now. It
will cost thousands of dollars to
buy demolish, and landscape the
property for the proposed new auditorium. The Ponderosa Motel

Kudos &
Concerns

and Campground I am talking

about.
Now my suggestion: Build it up
on the knoll east of the sports complex. The city owns the property
and should be willing to give it to
the school district. The two together could share several things,
kitchen, locker rooms, storage,
parking etc. The drainage would
be perfect and easy to landscape
with trees etc.
If size matters and we want the
best and biggest...build it! Other
possibilities include and indoor
arena. Maybe even two playing
floors for basketball, volleyball or

whatever.
Another thought I could never
get across to anyone is to pipe
treated sewer water from teh city
lagoons for the football field, landscaping and even a new golf
course, yeas with real green grass.
With the modern trenchers and
boring machines things like this
would only take a few days with
local contractor like Coller and Peters. They both have the machinery to get er done!
Thank you!

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Kudos: To the new and returning

school faculty. Heres to a successful year!

Just a reminder from your Police Department.

Now that school has started please remember
that small children are either walking or riding
bicycles to school. Please watch out for them.

Concerns: So county wants to

opt out again to fix roads. We
opted out and they didnt fix the
roads. The last three years have
only worked in one end of the
county and then money is gone.
Some people are not getting any
services now. No plans, no management, and thats why were
broke.

Also, another reminder. According to City

Ordinance Chapter 11, Article 4, Section 5, there
shall be no riding of bicycles on the sidewalk on
Main Street. Parents, please remind your
children of this. A number of complaints have
been received from business owners
concerning this matter.

Want to telling some one good

job or have a concern? Express it

Another School Season
As baseball tournaments come
to a close and summer days spent
by the pool dwindle, South Dakota
families slowly gear up for the
start of a new school year. I always
enjoy this peaceful time of year in
South Dakota. The song of cicadas
is a reminder of the last few dog
days of summer. The familiar
sound of combines harvesting
truckload after truckload of corn,
soybeans, and other crops marks
the end of another productive year
and the beginning of another
school season.
School supplies replace the
shorts and swimsuits on store
shelves, while teachers prepare

their classrooms and finalize their

lessons plans. This is an exciting
time of year for families, even if
the kids are not quite ready for
summer to be over so soon.
The family calendar slowly becomes littered with Friday night
football games, marching band
practices, and cross country meets.
Parents stay busy attending
booster club meetings and school
events to cheer on the local team,
while kids get back in the routine
of balancing homework, after
school clubs, and sports practice.
While it is easy to get swept up
in back-to-school activities, we
must also take time to remember
how fortunate we are in South
Dakota to have such dedicated

teachers and staff in our school

systems. South Dakota's standard
of excellence in the classroom is a
prized tradition. We value our dedicated teachers who set up our students for a lifetime of success.
Both of my parents were educators
in Murdo and I saw firsthand how
that dedication can impact students.
After the school supplies are
purchased, the class teachers are
announced, and the afterschool activities are planned, let us all
strive to make this year the best
school year yet in South Dakota.
The future of our state lies in the
success of our children.

Good Times At The South
Dakota State Fair
Classes have begun again, football season will soon be underway
and South Dakotas favorite end-ofsummer event is coming up the
South Dakota State Fair, held Aug.
28 through Sept. 1 in Huron.
Families have enjoyed good
times at the State Fair for generations, and I am looking forward to
spending time again at our states
annual celebration of agriculture

and community.
The State Fair has a proud history of educating children (and
their parents) about how our farmers and ranchers produce food.
Whether its watching a livestock
show, getting up close and personal with a calf or lamb, sitting in
the seat of a new combine or tractor, asking an exhibitor what their
chickens eat, or learning Mrs.
Olsons secret for growing massive
pumpkins, there are a host of opportunities for inspiring and educating young people about the
wonders of agriculture.
Of course, the State Fair is located in Huron, but for a few days
each year, the fairgrounds become
a community unto itself. Be sure to
stop at the FFA Animal Nursery
and ask a state officer how their
year of service is going. Take a walk
through the exhibition halls and
chat with 4-Hers about their projects. Visit with the vendors there

are dozens of families from South

Dakota and around the country
who come back year after year because they have such a good time.
And everyone has a story to share.
This
annual
celebration
wouldnt be complete without the
great fair food, exciting carnival
rides and unique activities. Enjoy
an ALABAMA or BOSTON concert
at the grandstand, try your luck in
the arm wrestling competition,
take your spouse for a twirl in the
jitterbug contest, or play a game or
two on the midway. No matter your
interest, youre bound to have a
good time.
I am proud of our State Fair and
enjoy the opportunity to experience
this one-of-a-kind celebration of
agriculture and community. Mark
the dates on your calendar and
make plans to come out for at least
one day. Its worth the trip. I hope
to see you there!

home, however, she made a little
detour to the Philip hospital where
she will be until she recovers some
more. Her grandsons wife, Nikki
Bonenberger, said Delores is making good progress but still needs
some physical therapy and such
for a while yet.
On Sunday, Brett and Nikki Bonenbergers kids were getting all
set for the start of school on Monday. They were doing some paperwork, reading some books, and so
on. Makaylan will be in the second
grade this year, and McCoy will
start kindergarten.
Colter and Abby Carlson and
kids had a day at the fair last
week in Rapid City. The girls went
on some of the carnival rides although they were too short to
qualify for rides on a number of
them. Colter said he wasnt into
carnival rides himself but didnt
mind watching the kids enjoy
them. Exhibits were viewed, and
some business was conducted in
Rapid while they were there. Back
at home, cattle work is picking up
with giving fall shots to calves and
that sort of thing.
Frank Carlson, Toni and the
boys went to a horse sale in Belle
Fourche this weekend and came
home with a new roan colt. Just
before that, they had been to Wolf
Point, Montana to buy some registered black-angus heifers. Last
week, the family went to White
River where Frank was in the
ranch rodeo at Frontier Days. He
with his crew of Lex Grooms, Tyler

Jones, and Joe Pavlas came in second that day. Frank said there
may not be many more ranch
rodeos this year as those sorts of
events are now winding down for
the season.
Betty Kusick rode to Kadoka on
Saturday with Jim Addison for
Edith Peraults funeral. When Jim
called beforehand, he asked Betty
if he should bring his fishing pole
along, but Betty said not to bother
since it was supposed to rain. It
did rain a little but had cleared by
the time the funeral was over.
Betty then wished Jim had
brought his fishing gear. Bettys
garden is doing well at present
and providing her with quite a few
large tomatoes.
Larry, Jo, and Jenny Johnston
went to Huron on Saturday to help
Jos sister, Charlotte (AKA Charlie) celebrate her birthday on Sunday. Jos mom, Marcella Svenson,
was there from Rapid as was Jos
sister, Virginia Conlee, from Black
Hawk. Virginia came with her
husband, Bruce, and their daughter, Brenda, was also there with
her husband. There were about 30
people at the birthday bash, and
many of them went out to eat at
the airport caf on Saturday
evening. The Massachusettssister
wasnt able to come, but the rest of
the family was well represented.
Back at home, Jenny already
started her senior year of high
school last week at Philip. Ranch
work at present has quite a bit to
do with stacking hay bales.

Jim and Pat Osburn and his
two sons of Rapid City were in
Kadoka on Friday. They brought
several items to the Pearl Hotel
from the home of the late Ethel
and Paul Osburn of Philip, including a dining room set with table
and chairs and a buffet, and two
portraits of Ethel and Paul, which
were painted by their other son,
the late Lary Osburn. The Osburn
family were residents of Kadoka
before moving to Philip in the 40s
and ran a hardware store here.
Before leaving for their home they
and Sydne Lenox enjoyed lunch at
Aw! Shucks.
Linda and Stephen Riggins returned home on August 14 after
taking a trip to several places in
Montana and Wyoming. They visited Billings, Laurel, Red Lodge,
Bear Tooth Mountain and part of
Yellowstone National Park where
they saw lots of buffalo. They left
for their trip on August 8 and visited with Ross Albin in Cody, WY,
and drove through the Big Horn
Mountains. They also visited with
four of Lindas sisters and two of
her brothers and their families
while gone.
Paula Vogelgesang, Al Badure

and Bev McDaniel have all taken

quilts to the Cornerstone Mission
in Rapid City recently. In all, 46
quilts were given to the Mission
and will be available to homeless
veterans who are served there.
The quilts were tied by the Bad
River Senior Citizens in Philip.
Deb and Marv Moor and son,
Mitch of Pierre, went to Rapid
City on Wednesday of last week,
where they all kept appointments.
Members of the Save the Pearl
organization served lunch at the

sale near Cottonwood on Sunday.
It was a perfect day for a sale and
a huge crowd attended.
Jeff Willert took first place in
two rodeos during the past week.
At the Fallon County Fair and
Rodeo in Baker, MT, Jeff scored a
79 which was first place and took
home a check for $1,957. Third
place was won by Ty Thompson
with a 76 winning $1,068. At the
Range Days Rodeo in Rapid City,
Aug. 21-23, Jeff tied for first place
with an 83, getting a check for
$2,122; Ty Thompson tied for 3rd
place with a score of 82, winning
$934, and Ty Manke scored 81 getting $300. Ty Thompson took first

place at the Campbell County

Rodeo in Herried, SD, held on August 23-24 with a score of 83 and
winning, $1,015; Jeff Willert took
second place scoring 78 and winning $761 and 4th place went to
Ty Manke, score of 72, and $254.
Pam Dixon of Rapid City and
children visited her parents, Francis and Norma VanderMay, near
Long Valley on August 14 and 15 one more visit to grandma and
grandpas this summer before
heading off to school - Morgan to
Washington University in St.
Louis, MO, Taylor to Southwest
Technical at Sioux Falls, and Ryan
to St. Thomas More High School in
Rapid City.
It seems like Fall is coming
early. The area is experiencing cool
weather and so far we have had
only a few hot days in August. For
a change the first day of school
brought cool weather instead of
the usual hot, hot August temperatures. We also had a wonderful
rain this past week; White River,
according to Bonnie Madsens relatives, got 5 1/2 of rain Sunday
evening, and the Sioux Falls area
had some damaging weather over
the weekend.

Its that time of the year for
school to begin, please be extra
careful when picking up or droping
off your little ones. Accidents happen. On a good note, I wish everyone a great school year!!
This week we had a few visitors
drop by, nothing like the week before when all the families and
friends showed up for the barbeque
and the third annual carnival.
There were people everywhere - it
was a super day and I hope all enjoyed themselves and that nobody
went away hungry! We really appreciate all who brought food and
cakes for the cakewalk.
Stopping in to visit with Joy
Parker were: Renate and Ron Carlson, Wilma Carleton and several
others. Joy always enjoys spending
time with them.
Visiting with Micki Word were:
her husband, Bob, and her niece,
Sydney Word. Sydney caught her
up on some of the things that shes
been doing and that she now has a
job at Aw! Shucks. Doesnt seem
like she should be old enough, does
it? Also, this week she had a visit
from her daughter and her grandkids, Kale and Sawyer. They are

Friends and relatives gathered
at the Presbyterian Church in
Kadoka on Saturday morning to
say their final goodbyes to Edith
Perault. Her funeral was held at
11:00 a.m. that day. Interment followed at the Kadoka Cemetery
with a lunch afterwards at the
church. Many Belvidere people
were in attendance since Edith
and Charles lived in the Stamford/Belvidere area for many
years. Some Belvidere folks helped
with the service as pallbearers,
ushers, or with the music.
On Saturday afternoon and
after the funeral of Bill Headlees
mom, Edith Perault, about 42 people gathered at Bill and Normas
for a time of visiting. This included
all Bill and Normas kids, all their
grandkids except for one, sisters,
brothers, cousins and the works.
Norma said it was nice to have a
time together and to catch up. It
was a pleasant day for it. On Sunday while six of the grandkids
were still here, Norma enlisted
their help in digging potatoes.
They thought it was great fun
picking up the spuds and figured
it might even be better than looking for Easter eggs. By Sunday
evening, everyone had left, and
Norma said it was back to being
just Bill, and her and the dogs.
But then, thats the way it started
out so it was okay.

A Save the Pearl committee
meeting was held Tuesday evening
with seven members and one visitor present.
Please keep Claude Allen Berry
in your prayers. He is improving
and Betty drives over to the Philip
hospital every day to visit him and
returns here in the evening. Their
son, John, stopped Tuesday
evening to check en route home
from Rapid City from working a
couple of days repairing his house.
He is a country rancher again.
I met Richard and Linda Drake
from Marienville, PA, on my visiting bench in front of the laundromat and had my 12th visit with an

out-of-state couple. They were

here on business. Richard is Floys
son. They are the nicest couple
and we had a nice visit. They will
be returning home in a day or so.
May we extend our sincere sympathies to Edith (Headlee) Perault
family, to the Long Soldier families, and to the Dull Knife families.
I met with Barbara and her
husband at the front entrance and
they were on their way to visit her
dad, Allen, as he has been released
to come to his home here in the
apartments. That is great news.
I accompanied my grandson,
Chris, to Rapid City on Friday and
we picked up his other grand-

mother, Jeanette Burnett, in

Philip for a trip, as she needed a
checkup from her eye surgery. My
appointment was for my new
glasses. We had a very successful
busy day and returned home that
evening.
This Sunday what a great sight
it was to see Claude Allen and
Betty returning to their room after
a stroll down the hallway. Claude
Allen is hanging in there and
Betty is doing a very good job caring for her husband.
Thought: Good works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.

Church
Fellowship of God | Dr. James L. Snyder
What did the bugs do
before I came?
The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage and Yours Truly finally exercised our right to a vacation and
planned for a whole week to spend
with our son and his family. Preparing for a week vacation takes about
six weeks prior to the vacation and
then six weeks after the vacation to
get caught up. I do not know how
people take vacations all the time.
It was to be a great week of relaxing and spending time with our son
and his family in the state of Ohio.
Ohiois remarkable for a lot of things
but when my wife and I think of
Ohiowe think of one thing: our
grandchildren.
Someone once remarked that
grandchildren was Gods way of apologizing for our children. Maybe that
is so, I do not know. If so, I gladly accept His apology. All I know is it is
wonderful to spend time with grandchildren. The important thing about
being a grandparent is discovering
the skills necessary to adequately
spoil your grandchildren within a
weeks time frame. Secretly, my plan
is to get back at my children for their
childhood in my home by spoiling my
grandchildren in their home.
Revenge is sweet and wonderful.
It was about the middle of the
week and my wife and I were sitting
outside enjoying the cool weather. All
of the grandchildren had been snuggled down into their beds for the
night. It certainly is tiring to spend
the day with grandchildren who
have no shortage of energy and
whose tongue is a well oiled machine
and does not know how to be quiet.
Our ears were still tingling from
the days childish verbiage extravaganza. We were sitting in the backyard sipping some hot coffee,
enjoying the quiet evening when I
heard this buzzing sound on the left
side of my head. Automatically my
hand swatted in that area and I went
on drinking my coffee as though
nothing had happened. I thought
perhaps the kids were still up or
maybe it was a flashback from the
afternoon. My wife looked at me as
though something weird happened,
but we continued enjoying the
evening atmosphere with only the
soothing sounds of sipping coffee.
Then I heard the buzzing sound
again. This time it was on the other
side of my head and as I swatted I
began to realize what was happening. All of the bugs in the state of
Ohiohad received a memo that I was
vacationing in the state. In well organized shifts they began the welcoming process. Within a short time
I was swatting bugs with both hands

which did not seem to change the situation at hand. I know I am a sweet
person, but this was becoming ridiculous. I would like to retain my sweetness for something other than bugs.
I am not quite sure how many bug
bites I received that night, I stopped
counting at 2,973,442 bites. I am not
quite certain, but it was feeling more
like it had exceeded 3 million bites.
If I had a penny for every bug bite I
could buy very expensive bug repellent.
It seemed like they were working
in shifts and it got to the point where
my mind shifted into a murder scenario. Is it a crime to murder a bug
who has bitten me so many times? Of
course the real question is, is it really
murder? Could it be considered a
mercy killing? And if it is murder,
what is the penalty for murdering a
bug? I was at the point that I would
gladly have paid handsomely for the
privilege of putting some bugs to
rest.
As a spiritually minded person, I
wondered if bugs go to heaven when
they die? If they go to heaven, do
they continue to bite? And, would it
be proper for an angel to swat a bug
in heaven?
The mood I was in, after being bitten so many times by these lousy
bugs, I had an opposite destination
in mind. Since they like fire so much
and are attracted to it, I would be
glad to accommodate them. I know a
place that would fit the situation
quite well.
After two hours of fighting these
stinking bugs, my sanity, as fragile
as it is, was on the brink of collapsing. Once my sanity collapses I am
not responsible for what I will do or
say. It was hard to find a place on my
body one finger wide where a bug
had not tasted the delicacy of my
sweet skin.
One question I reflected on was
simply, what did the bugs do before I
arrived? Did they save up all their
energy for when I would come and
visit? This is not the kind of celebrity
status I am seeking. My preference
is to be anonymous to all the bugs in
Ohio. All of these insects, whatever
they were, were simply bugging me
to death.
When I regained some composure,
I thought about what it must have
been like for Jesusto come into this
world. The writer of Hebrews puts it
this way, So Christ was once offered
to bear the sins of many; and unto
them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin
unto salvation (Hebrews 9:28).
So many things in this world bug
me, but I have something greater to
look forward to, a place called
heaven.

Thinking About Health

When Congress Says Its OK to

Waste Healthcare Dollars
By Trudy Lieberman, Rural
Health News Service
Evidence continues to pile up
that Medicare Advantage plans are
no advantage for taxpayers. MA
plans, as they are called, are one alternative for seniors to receive their
Medicare benefits. But in this case,
the benefits come from government
payments to private insurance carriers, not directly from the federal
government.
Medicare Advantage plans took
off in 2006 when overpayments
from the government allowed insurance sellers to offer these
arrangements as an alternative to
traditional Medicare benefits and
Medigap policies. In a move to encourage beneficiaries to use managed care---on the theory it would
save money---the government
began to pay insurers to provide
the same benefits to seniors and
disabled people eligible for
Medicare that would be available in
the regular fee-for-service program.
Payments from Washington
have been very generous---a kind of
subsidy for insurers that has made
it possible for them to entice seniors
with low or no monthly premiums
for their coverage and extra goodies
like chiropractic care, gym memberships and eye glasses.
There was a catch, though, that
seniors would learn about only if
they got sick. Some of these no-premium MA plans came with high copayments and coinsurance required
for many services. Still, theyve become so popular that 30 percent of
all Medicare beneficiaries now have
them, and most beneficiaries eagerly sign up for them during fall
open enrollment with little thought
to potentially high out-of-pocket
costs down the road.

Inspiration Point
Faith And Obedience
1 Kings 18;12 - It will come about when I leave you that the Spirit of the
Lord will carry you where I do not know.
Think of faith and obedience as travel companions heading to the same destinationnamely, to please and glorify the Lord. You cannot have one without
the other. They grow simultaneously as they are practiced but will wither if
neglected.
Elijah was a man with both of these qualities. He believed God and always
responded in obedience. When told by the Lord to show himself to King Ahab,
Elijah didn't permit fear to stop him. He had learned through experience that
the Father was faithful and trustworthy.
Fear short-circuits faith when we begin to doubt that Gods way is really best.
If we allow worry to gain a foothold in our minds, well respond by refusing to
do what the Lord says, which is disobedience. The result will be a change in our
travel plans, and by rejecting the way of faith and obedience, were actually
choosing the path of unbelief and sin.
Satan loves our fear and disobedience because they hinder the journey that
God has designed for us. We cant believe the Lord for great things in one area
of our life if we are allowing sin in another. Self-examination is essential in the
walk of faith. Where have you compromised by allowing sin a foothold? Are you
resisting anything God says in His Word?
Great faith begins with small steps. When you choose to follow Gods Word,
an ever-increasing cycle of faith and obedience will begin. Dont let fear or sin
rob you of the great adventure Hes planned for your life. Who has a better track
record for choosing the right pathyou or God? So believe Him!

Hicks, Moor wed

have found that Medicare has paid

insurance companies as much as 12
or 13 percent more than it costs to
provide identical benefits for the
same services under the traditional
program thanks to quirks in the
payment formulas as well as overbilling by insurance companies.
The most recent study has come
from Medicares own researchers
who quietly posted their results in
late July on an online research site
of the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services (CMS), which
runs the Medicare program. They
found many MA plans routinely
overbill the government for treating elderly patients and have done
so for years.
Researchers said that many MA
plans exaggerate how sick their patients are and how much they cost
to treat them, a practice called upcoding, which my journalistic colleague Fred Schulte at the Center
for Public Integrity has written
about extensively. Schulte told me,
the study can appear to be an inside baseball thing but its hugely
important since it exposes tons and
tons of misspent taxpayer money.
For example, CMS researchers
found that beneficiaries in some
MA plans appeared to have rates of
some diseases like depression and
complications from diabetes that
were higher than those in traditional Medicare. Yet they concluded
that people who join MA plans are
healthier than those who stay in
traditional Medicare. They concluded its unlikely that the
higher payments insurers receive
for these more complicated conditions are related to improvements
to seniors health provided by the
plans, as the insurance industry
claims.

happy about the heat, but concerns were
raised about the lunch program and heat
in the gymnasium. The Kadoka hearing
was held to address the school district
purchasing property. Mr. Hermann has
had several phone calls inquiring about
the purchase of the property and concerns that they had, however none were
opposed to the possibility of a new building.
Mr. Hermann asked if there were any
comments or questions on his report.
Grant Patterson expressed that he was
happy to see the school moving forward
on this project and that it is needed in the
community. The board discussed the
slope and shape of the property, and different things that could affect the purchase and the future building project.

fuel tanks that may have one time been
buried on the property.
Principals Reports: Mr.Nemecek reported that teachers are already in the
buildings working, the fall schedule is
ready and there is an influx of students.
The number of walkthrough he will be
doing this year will decrease but the
quality will improve. Mr. Seiler reported
that the schedule will be very similar to
last year wit there being seven minutes
at the beginning of the day for the pledge
of allegiance and announcements. Registration has gone well the last couple of
days.

Sunflower, Sorghum
& Corn Plot Tours
SDSU Extension will offer
tours of the Sunflower and Grain
Sorghum Crop Variety Testing
plots in Lyman County on Tuesday, September 9. We will begin
with the Sunflower Variety Trial
at 4:30 p.m. CDT. The Sunflower
plot is located 6.5 miles south of I90 Exit 226, east of Presho, 2
miles west and 1/4 mile south. In
addition to the sunflower hybrid
variety trial, the plot includes a
fungicide seed treatment trial and
a herbicide trial. These plots were
established to evaluate fungicide
seed treatment products for control of downy mildew, and potential new herbicide products for
crop safety.
The Grain Sorghum Variety
Plot is located 4.5 miles south of
Kennebec and 2.5 miles east on
246th St. Plans are to begin the
grain sorghum tour about 6:00
p.m. CDT. Along with the hybrid
variety trial, the SDSU W.E.E.D.
project established a herbicide
trial at the site. Kim Halverson,
the plot cooperator, also has a
Corn Variety Plot at the location.
Representatives from some of the
seed companies with hybrids in
the sunflower, sorghum and corn
plots will be on hand for information on their products.
Plans are to finish the evening
at the Kim Halverson Farm with
a meal and refreshments after the
plot tours. For more information,
contact the SDSU Regional Extension Center in Winner at 8421267.
Your Wheat had Ergot, so
what about Next Year?
The majority of the 2014 wheat
crop was very good, but ergot was
a widespread problem. Many of
the ergot infested fields seemed to
be those that matured later than
most, such as some of the spring
wheat, later planted and later maturing winter wheat varieties, and
fields with thin stands. In at least
one field of winter wheat, many of
the heads containing ergot bodies
were late tillers.
There are at least a couple of
potential explanations for this, 1.
This group of fields apparently
were flowering when particularly
wet, humid conditions prevailed,
and 2. There may have been some
secondary infection from wheat,
rye and/or grasses that developed
ergot earlier, along with ergot developing from primary infection
via spores. Prior to the dark pur-

The South Dakota Department

of Agriculture (SDDA) presents
the 2014 South Dakota Agriculture Bulletin No. 74 with assistance from the South Dakota
National Agricultural Statistics
Service (NASS), Decision Innovation Solutions (DIS) and South
Dakota State University Extension (SDSU).
Having tangible data showing
agricultures impact is very important, said Secretary of Agriculture Lucas Lentsch. This
partnership created a publication
with not only data about our
states agricultural industry but
information on the impact this
sector truly has on our states
economy.
The bulletin includes NASS
data along with new information
from SDSU and DIS. Data in the
publication includes: crop production and yields, livestock, poultry
inventory, agricultural income,
prices, key findings and methodology for the SD Ag Economic Contribution Study and South Dakota
county profiles showing jobs generated and outputs derived from
many industries.
The results found in this publication show a measurable interconnectivity between farm and
ranch operations and agribusiness
activities as well as their impact
on sustaining South Dakotas
broader economy, said Barry
Dunn, dean of the SDSU College
of Agriculture and Biological Sciences.
To find this years publication,

SD Dept. of Ag
presents 2014
SD Agriculture
bulletin No. 74

As summer winds down and

comes to a close and fall arrives, it
is a good time for reflection.
Spring and early summer have
blessed us with abundant precipitation, and consequently above
average crops, hay, grass, and
record high land and livestock
prices.
In evaluating your operation,
the following NRCS programs
may be of interest to you:
Conservation Stewardship
Program (CSP): This voluntary
program targets producers that
are interested in raising their current level of management by implementing preapproved NRCS
management practices commonly
known as enhancements, on their
croplands, grazing lands, and hay
lands. This program provides financial and technical assistance,
to help land stewards conserve
and enhance soil, water, air and
natural resource related resources
on their land.
Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP): This
is a voluntary program for producers interested in improving their
existing operation through strategic livestock water development,
shelterbelt improvement, conversion of eroding cropped fields to
permanent cover by hayland, pastureland, and rangeland seedings,
fence for improving livestock grazing distribution on rangelands
and also to protect living shelterbelts.
Environmental Quality Incentives Pond Initiative Program: This is a voluntary

ple to black sclerotia (ergot bodies)

found replacing the grain, infected
florets exude honeydew, which
can spread ergot to other heads by
physical contact and insects.
Wheat producers are wondering if ergot will be a growing problem. Ergot has been around for
many years, and whether it will
become more common will depend
heavily on weather conditions in
the area while the wheat crop is
flowering. Producers are also asking about planting wheat containing ergot, and about planting into
fields that had ergot. Ergot is considered to be an occasional, or
even rare problem. Control of
ergot is said to begin with planting seed free of the sclerotia. Some
of the ergot bodies in wheat fields
that were infected with the disease may have shelled out and
pose a slighter higher risk than
fields that were free of the disease
because the ergot bodies are the
source of inoculum. The key factor
will be the weather conditions
during flowering of the 2015 crop.
No fungicides are labeled for
ergot control, and not believed to
provide significant reduction of
the disease. Fungicide decisions at
flowering should be based on the
risk of scab and other diseases,
and weather conditions during
that time.
