The Kadoka Nursing Home will be holding what they hope to call their first annual carnival on Sun- day, August 12 from 1-3 p.m. along the west side of the facility. The event will be complete fun for all ages including a number of games and lots of food. Included in the carnival will be a cake walk. The nursing home is accepting donations for the cake walk. You may call Ruby or Cathy at 837-2270. And, you wont want to miss out on the dunk tank were nursing home employees, including Ruby Sanftner, will be on the board. This fundraiser is to help raise money for the resident activities account. Gardeners may be noticing the effects of our recent high tempera- tures, according to Dr. Rhoda Bur- rows, Extension Horticulturist. "Hot dry winds can also exacer- bate the combined effect of heat stress and water stress, as it can be difficult to deliver sufficient water to the plant under those condi- tions," Dr. Burrows said. The following are some of the ef- fects Burrows said gardeners may observe on vegetables: Tomatoes: Ideal temperatures for growing tomatoes are 75 to 80 degrees. Temperatures over 100 de- grees F can prevent fruit set, and temperatures in the 90's can also prevent fruit set if nights are warm (over 70 degrees) or the humidity is high. On ripening fruit exposed to strong sun, sunburn can occur, and temperatures over 85 degrees de- crease development of red color in the fruit. Heat also tends to in- crease blossom end rot because the fruit expands too rapidly for the plant to take up calcium quickly enough to distribute it to the ex- panding fruit. Uneven watering will also result in the same prob- lem, as the plant needs moisture in order to take up and move calcium to the fruit. Squash: High temperatures (over 86 degrees) accelerate flower closing (mid to late morning), so pollination must be accomplished by bees early in the morning. Squash and pumpkin flowers must be pollinated within a few hours of opening, or will fall off the plant. Peppers: Drought stress early in the season decreases leaf area and fruit yield, especially during blos- soming. The optimal temperature for growing bell peppers is 72 de- grees; hot peppers can withstand somewhat higher temperatures. Temperatures above 90 can stop fruit set altogether on bell peppers, especially under dry conditions, and even temperatures in the 80s can decrease yield by 50%. Potatoes: Drought can cause tu- bers to crack, resulting in mis- shapen tubers at harvest. Cucumbers: Heat and drought increase bitterness. Green beans: Fruit set of beans will be reduced or stopped alto- gether at temperatures over 85 de- grees, with some variation in cultivars. Bush-type (as opposed to pole) beans have fairly shallow root systems, so gardeners need to be careful to keep their soil moist. Smaller-seeded cultivars germi- nate better in warm (over 80 de- grees) soils; larger-seeded cultivars in cooler (54 degree) soils. Sweet corn: Corn is one of the most heat-tolerant vegetables, but is still sensitive during silking. The primary concern with hot tempera- tures is to maintain water supply to the roots to ensure good "tip-fill" of the ears. Lettuce: Many types of lettuce will not germinate when soil tem- peratures are over 80 to 85 degrees, so late summer plantings for a fall crop must be grown from trans- plants germinated in a cooler place. Broccoli & Cauliflower: Temper- atures over 80 degrees disrupt head development, leading to small scattered bunches of florets. Water stress can cause the heads to de- velop too quickly, with similar re- sults. What can a gardener do to ame- liorate the effects of high tempera- tures? "Some tomato growers in other areas of the country are resorting to shadecloth or even mist systems to cool the plants" Burrows said. "Although we generally encourage drip systems to avoid plant dis- eases and to conserve water, short periods of overhead watering may be beneficial to cool the plants dur- ing the hottest hours of the day, es- pecially when humidity levels are low. However, avoid having water on the foliage for more than a few hours at a time, as longer periods of leaf wetness allow diseases to in- vade."

High temperatures can decrease garden yields Freshman through seniors are encouraged to attend a pre-regis- tration at the Kadoka Area High School on August 15 and 16. Freshmen and sophomores will be able to register on Wednesday, August 15 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Juniors and seniors are being asked to register on Thursday, Au- gust 16 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. School will begin in Monday, Au- gust 27 for all students in the Kadoka Area School District. Pre-registration set for Kadoka Area High Schoolers invite the park superintendent to a KCBA meeting. There was some discussion on the rails to trails, which is still in the planning stages. Gene Christensen asked if there would be any support from KCBA concerning the city adoption of the comprehensive plan? Due to a conflict of interest (City of Kadoka/KCBA), Ulmen turned the meeting over to Cindy Wilmarth, who then asked the members for discussion. Christensen, and others, said they have not been following the comprehensive plan. After discussion members said with only a few KCBA members at- tending the meeting, they could not speak for the entire group and everyone should do it individually. Christensen questioned that if economic development can not move forward without the plan, it needs to be adopted. He said, The course we are on isnt working. KCBA members met for their monthly meeting on Thursday, Au- gust 2 at the H&H Restaurant. Patty Ulmen called the meeting to order in the absence of President Jackie Stilwell. Cindy Wilmarth reported that the current balance on hand is $13,846.07. A bill from Rosenbaums Signs in the amount of $2,861.69 was ap- proved. This included work to the Kadoka sign east of town and a new wrap for the sign. Later in the meeting it was noted the sign on the west side of Kadoka also needs attention. Kenny Wilmarth said hes working with Rosenbaums. KCBA members said they would like to see drafts for the sign at the September meet- ing. It was mentioned that Kadoka Area High School homecoming will be on Friday, September 21. Jim Fugate will oversee the KCBA pan- cake supper, with the help of Rich Bendt, who will be ordering pan- cake mix, syrup, etc. A motion carried to pre-autho- rize the purchase of the Punt, Pass & Kick trophies for homecoming. Patty Ulmen said the year-to- date 3Bs revenue is down by over $2,000. She said, for now, the budget will stay the same, however, next year, if the revenue is not up, money will need to come out of KCBA membership dues. It was ex- pected that revenue will be up at the end of summer. Vernon Uhlir said hed recently attended a meeting at the Bad- lands National Park and they are showing a 13% increase at the park and 20% at the book store. Uhlir said suggested that KCBA KCBA makes plans for homecoming activities Judge John Kangas and 4-H member Alex Smiley. 4-H exhibit judging 4-H member Gage Weller and judge Kathy Peterson. --photos by Del Bartels With the first day of school ap- proaching fast, the need of school supplies for local students is a con- cern. Addressing this concern, a school supply drive is being con- ducted for Kadoka Area students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Donations of all the basic school supplies are needed and include crayons, pencils, pens, notebooks, folders, pencil boxes, scissors, glue sticks and book bags. A complete list of school supplies can be found on the Kadoka Area School Dis- tricts website. Donations of school supplies can be dropped off at the Kadoka School or the Kadoka Presbyterian Church. The drive is being conducted by Young Life and Mariah Pierce is serving as the chairperson. For more details contact Mariah Pierce, Paul Roghair 920-312-0428, or Gary McCubbin 605-837-2233. Young Life conducting school supply drive The Kadoka Area School Board held a special meeting on Thurs- day, August 2 at 8 p.m. Board members present were Ross Block, Dale Christensen and DJ Addison. Member Dawn Ras- mussen was present via speaker phone and Mark Williams was also present via speaker phone during part of the meeting. The meeting was held to discuss housing needs for the elementary principal. Superintendent Jamie Hermann stated that several property own- ers had been contacted to inquire about the possibility of renting a house for the principal and his fam- ily. The search for a rental property has not been successful. Elementary Principal Jeff Ne- mecek stated that even though there are several homes for sale at the present time in Kadoka, pur- chasing one is not an option due to the fact that his current house is listed on the market and has not been sold yet. Considering the situation, the school board was proposing the op- tion of purchasing a house and renting it to the principal. Several people in attendance stated that they felt the school should not be in the business of purchasing houses for rent and concerned with the property being removed from the tax roll. The proper notice of the special meeting and posting of the agenda was questioned, as well as the ex- ecutive session on the agenda for the purpose of marketing and pric- ing strategies. Hermann stated that the school attorney recommended that the board enter executive session under that reason. After a twenty minute executive session, the board returned to open session with no action taken. School board take no action on housing issue Feeding the troops is not an easy task when there are 106 campers and over 70 volunteers. Each day begins with 24 dozen of eggs and 60 pounds of pancake flour. Over the four days, more than 290 pounds of hamburger and 170 pounds of roast beef will be consumed.

Sept. - May Church Calendar Psalm 25:3-5 Waiting for God's timing is neither passive nor idle- -it takes discipline and commitment. I can think of four basic requirements for successful waiting. Faith. The Lord's ways and timing are nothing like ours (Isa. 55:8-9). From a human standpoint, He usually does things in a totally different way than we expect. But as we trust Him more, we'll discover that His approach isn't so strange after all. And when we live in harmony with God's will, His timing starts to make sense. Humility. To wait for the Lord, you must be convinced of your need for Him. Submission to His divine will requires humility--you cannot charge ahead with your own plans and at the same time be fully sur- rendered to God. Patience. Are you willing to remain in your current position until you receive clear divine direction? Pausing for clarity from God does not mean that you disengage and allow circumstances to fall apart around you. Waiting upon the Lord is a deliberate decision that requires patience. Courage. Waiting for God often takes courage, especially when there is pressure to act. If you're not careful, you might stop listening to the Lord and follow other advice. So keep your ear attuned to the voice of Almighty God, and you won t go wrong. Waiting upon the Lord is one of the wisest, most important decisions we make in life. And contrary to popular assumptions, it is an active endeavor that requires faith, humility, patience, and courage. When you rely upon God and wait for His timing, the various facets of life fall into place. Requirements of Waiting Inspiration Point Monday, August 13 Salmon loaf, scalloped potatoes, seasoned green beans, bread, and cherry crisp.

Meals for the Elderly Correction: In the Boys State article in last weeks Kadoka Press, it was incor- rectly stated that Kenar Vander- May went to Pierre for Boys State. He went to Aberdeen. Creative Breakfast Ideas Since you were a young child, youve probably heard someone tell you that breakfast was the most important meal of the day. They were correct. We all fast for eight to 12 hours after going all night without food. Eating breakfast serves to break the fast or refuel your body. Breakfast should provide about one-fourth of your daily recom- mended intake of calories, vita- mins and minerals. For children, this means about 400-600 calories should be consumed at breakfast. Children who eat breakfast in- crease their nutrition. They are more likely to meet their daily needs for calcium, iron, riboflavin, vitamins A and D. Kids who eat a healthy break- fast regularly tend to have better concentration and are more pre- pared to learn. They are more alert, have fewer behavioral issues and are more involved at school. They are also not as tired or irrita- ble. Children often skip breakfast because they are busy rushing to school or they arent hungry in the morning. Its difficult to replace nutrients missed at breakfast, so kids should be encouraged to take foods that they can eat on the way to school. By thinking outside of the box, you can prepare breakfast using simple and time efficient methods. Try these tips to keep breakfast fun for the whole family: Make breakfast smoothies by combining orange juice, bananas, strawberries and blueberries in a blender and blend until smooth. Add a little low-fat milk or fat-free plain yogurt to your ingredients to increase calcium and protein. Use a whole wheat tortilla to wrap around scrambled eggs and grated cheese in the morning or prepare them the night before. Add variety to your wrap by adding black beans, diced tomatoes, or turkey sausage. For no-cook breakfast ideas try a fruit salad and a granola bar or half of a whole-wheat bagel with low-fat cream cheese and straw- berry slices. Make yogurt parfaits the night before by layering low- fat yogurt, fruit and granola in a clear cup; store them in the refrig- erator. Do you have a plan for those mornings when you are in a really big rush? Grab an apple, a string cheese and a few whole-wheat crackers for eating on the run. Eating breakfast helps you per- form and feel better. Good plan- ning for breakfast can help you increase your total nutrients for the day.

Ann Schwader, Nutrition Field Specialist SDSU Extension-Winner Regional Extension Center Connie Constipation is an older woman who has controlled almost everything throughout her life ex- cept for her bowels. It seems the harder shes tried to make the bowels move, the more constipated or irregular shes become. Shes al- ways sought for the right laxative, and is now using herbal lighten- ing without a lot of success. She commonly feels bloated, waiting for the call, often sitting on the commode for long periods of time, pushing too hard, and then shes loose as a goose having tripled her laxative dose. Connie is one frus- trated woman. The causes for constipation are numerous to include too little ex- ercise, too few fiber foods, internal scars from previous surgery, diver- ticulosis, low thyroid, and even colon cancer. Certainly everyone with constipation needs to con- sider first seeing a doctor for the proper evaluation. But I believe the most common cause for constipation around here is the long-term use of the stimu- lant type of laxatives such as Ex- lax, Correctol, stool softener WITH LAXATIVE, Senna, and many herbal type combinations. Realize that abruptly stopping stimulant laxatives causes re- bound constipation, and thus de- pendency. Many people have a problem perpetuated by the very drug they use to treat it. This is the reason to gradually taper off these bowel irritants, and then avoid them in the future. Good bowel health starts with exercise, a diet of fruit, vegetables, fiber foods; and then if needed by adding ground golden flax seed. I suggest buying it whole and grind- ing the flax in a coffee grinder, ( cup at a time prevents it turning rancid,) then daily mixing one or two tablespoons with breakfast ce- real, yogurt, or applesauce. If an individual is still having problems I advise plain stool sof- teners WITHOUT LAXATIVE. Start with one to three capsules once or twice a day, adjusting the dose accordingly. If necessary, res- cue with over-the-counter polyeth- ylene glycol (generic MiraLax,) milk of magnesia, or sorbitol. These are effective and do not cause rebound. If she exercises daily, eats the right food with enough fiber, and avoids laxatives, then Connie will be back in control. Rick Holm, M.D., Medical Editor Connie Constipation tions. The permit was denied be- cause of the rules dictated that eaves of the home were several inches too wide. In order to comply with state and federal regulations the roof would have to be replaced. Their retirement budget could not afford that. The elderly lady can- vassed the neighborhood seeking neighbors signatures to justify a variance. We left Nebraska months later permit still pend- ing. Other incidents of micro man- agement by regulation involve set backs when a modification or im- provement permit is applied for. If an existing structure is too close to the property line moving or de- struction of the offending structure could be required before any im- provement is permitted. This had a negative effect on several property improvement plans I have heard of. If the plan is adopted our new vo- cabulary will include more words like population densities and zoning which could require cer- tain types of development only in designated areas. Compliance is another great word that could get very important. That places pricey architects, envi- ronmental engineers and lawyers between property owners wallets and building permits. Presently Kadoka building per- mits are in the hands of our elected officials and a up or down vote. Under a comprehensive plan per- mits or variances could take months as appointed state officials steeped in a multitude of regula- tions govern city and private prop- erty rights. There is an old saying, govern- ment that governs least governs best. /s/ Glenn T. Freeman Box 406 Kadoka, SD 57543 Dear Editor: Our Kadoka city council is going to again address the adoption of a comprehensive plan at their meeting on Monday, August 13th. Folks appointed as planning ad- visers by our city council were ded- icated to the statement that they wanted to clean up Kadoka. They recommended our city council vote to agree to an extremely vague Comprehensive Plan proposal based in part on estimated and out- dated data. Perhaps some believe this would solve local problems. Others feel the council could be in- sulated from law suits when mov- ing against a property owner. They do not realize that these problems will be grandfathered. Until prop- erty owners seek permits to modify their property they cannot be reg- ulated by state or federal govern- ment absent health or safety concerns. Those too could become legal issues. One example of grandfathering involved an older couple who moved a surplus railroad depot and remodeled it into an very attractive retirement home near Ogallala, Nebraska. This was done before their property was annexed by the city after a comprehensive plan was adopted. All went well until the gentleman needed a ramp for his wheelchair. That modification removed grandfathered protec- USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) State Executive Director Craig Schaunaman, has an- nounced that USDA has authorized the release of additional Conserva- tion Reserve Program (CRP) acres that are considered to be environ- mentally sensitive for emergency haying and grazing purposes. "The inclusion of these acres under the CRP emergency haying and grazing provisions allows live- stock producers access to forage on approximately 460,000 CRP acres in South Dakota that are devoted to wetland and farmable wetland practices," said Schaunaman. "USDA, along with Federal, State, and local partners collaborated to support the release of these addi- tional acres in response to livestock feed needs that are prevalent as a result of the wide spread drought conditions across the continental United States," he said. Emergency haying and grazing of CRP has been authorized for all South Dakota counties. Producers must file an application with their local FSA office prior to conducting any haying or grazing activity. Under CRP emergency haying and grazing provisions, haying and grazing may begin on August 2nd; however, haying may not exceed August 31, 2012, and grazing may not exceed September 30, 2012. Currently there are approximately one million acres of CRP available for emergency haying and grazing in South Dakota. On July 11, 2012, Secretary Vil- sack announced that the 25 percent CRP payment reduction will be re- duced to 10 percent for all 2012 emergency haying and grazing au- thorizations in order to provide greater flexibility to farmers and ranchers in response to the drought conditions. Under emergency haying and grazing provisions, producers are reminded that the same CRP acreage cannot be both hayed and/or grazed at the same time. For example, if 50 percent of a field or contiguous field is hayed, the re- maining unhayed 50 percent can- not be grazed; it must remain unhayed and ungrazed for wildlife habitat purposes. In an effort to proactively serve South Dakota farmers and ranch- ers, the South Dakota Farm Serv- ice Agency and the South Dakota Department of Agriculture are en- couraging producers to utilize the on-line hay finder services avail- able via www.hayexchange.com and www.haybarn.com. For more information and to re- quest approval for emergency hay- ing and grazing of CRP acres contact your local FSA office. USDA authorizes release of environmentally sensitive CRP acres for emergency haying and grazing commission will submit its report and recommendations to the Gov- ernor by Dec. 31, 2012, to be con- sidered during the 2013 legislative session. Discussions during the public hearings will be limited to poten- tial changes to the child support guidelines and statutes. The hear- ings are not intended for specific comments or complaints involving individual child support cases or visitation. Written comments or sugges- tions may also be submitted for consideration by the full commis- sion by mailing them to the De- partment of Social Services, Attn: Child Support Commission, 700 Governors Drive, Pierre, S.D. 57501-2291 or e-mailing DCS@state.sd.us. Deadline for public comments is September 1, 2012. The Governors Commission on Child Support will conduct a public hearing to gather input on poten- tial changes to South Dakotas child support guidelines and re- lated statutes on Monday, August 13, 2012. Individuals may appear to provide public testimony at the Palisades Rooms 1 & 2 of the Holi- day Inn City Centre in Sioux Falls from 6-8 p.m. The commission is conducting its required four-year review of South Dakotas child support guidelines and is comprised of rep- resentatives of custodial and non- custodial parents, family law attorneys, the judiciary, the legisla- ture, and the Department of Social Services. The commission may rec- ommend changes that reflect ad- justments in the costs of raising children, and may address other is- sues with related statutes.

The next fun night will be Tuesday, Au- gust 14. See ya then! OBryan Fun Night results from the OByans arena I fed the birds on the way home from church today. As I drove down the road, I occasionally tossed a piece of bread Frisbee-style out the open window on the passenger side of the pickup. I figured the spar- rows, meadowlarks and other fly- ing creatures deserved a treat. It was also a good way to get rid of some unwanted bread. As it happened, I had stored an older loaf of bread in the freezer over a month ago planning to make some bread pudding out of it for the coffee time after church. Well, yesterday, I dug that loaf back out, thawed it, and collected the utensils needed to make bread pudding. Unfortunately, Id origi- nally left the bread out too long be- fore freezing it so the third and fourth slices had big splotches of green mold. So much for bread pudding. Think of something else to make for church. Some brownies might do the trick, but what to do with moldy bread? In the past, that would have been simple. Feed it to the chick- ens. Alas, at present we have no chickens so that wont work. We do, however, have a whole prairie full of every kind of bird imagina- ble, and all of them probably have digestive systems that wouldnt be bothered by the odd bit of bread or, in fact, lots of other stuff that is only slightly digestible by humans. Thats one of the neater things about chickens. You can feed them almost anything, and theyll thrive on it and, whats more, construct eggs out of it. In the past, Ive had food go so bad that I was afraid to feed it to the cats for fear of mak- ing them sick, but flying creatures dont seem adversely affected in the least. I give you buzzards as an example. They actually crave stuff so rotten that, if we could even get it down, it wouldnt stay there or else it would probably make us deathly ill. Oh for the digestive system of a buzzard. You wouldnt ever have to wash dishes or worry in the slightest about sanitation or the wholesomeness of food. Such a deal. Bird watching, incidentally, is rather enjoyable. I am supposed to be the authority on these creatures since I took a semester of bird watching (ornithology) in college. It did help me to identify the more common species correctly most of the time, but there is always the rare one that sends me running for one of several guidebooks. We also have usually had a bird feeder set up on the deck or somewhere close in order to attract birds to watch. Its rather fun. If wife Corinne spots an unknown variety, shell often ask me to come look and tell her what it is. If I dont happen to know, I usually just say its proba- bly a duck, which, as you might imagine, yields me a look of scorn. Corinne somehow doesnt think that paddle-footed ducks are likely to frequent a bird feeder where there are only skinny little roosts to perch on. We dont have a regular feeder set up right now, but earlier this year we enjoyed feeding the grack- les by a different method. These black fellows were often seen out- side our back window so one day I decided to see how they liked bread. I tossed four old pieces out for them. They were delighted. One fellow practically jumped up and down in excitement. He started carrying it off bit by bit to who knows where. Maybe he had a family to support or something. Sometimes he would be joined by friends who were quick to get the picture. They, too, would hop right in and help themselves. At present, the black guys arent around much since they probably have their offspring raised and are all flying together in a flock somewhere else. The sparrows are ever with us, of course, but Corinne wont let me feed them right now since she wants them to keep the grasshop- per population in check. Theyve been doing that. Quite often you see a little fellow working on a huge hopper thats bigger than its head. Eventually, most of the hop- per is gone and the bird is looking around for more. Perhaps hes eaten all the tasty parts and wants a fresh kill. Im not sure whats going on or why, but the process is entertaining no matter what. Still, the prohibition against feeding the sparrows made me look elsewhere for a different method of moldy- bread disposal. The road ditches seemed the answer and thus the Frisbee tosses out the window. Somewhere, right now, a bird is probably thanking me. He or she is entirely welcome. Feeding the Birds Lookin Around by Syd Iwan Crystal Paulson has been travel- ing the world lately, or at least as far as El Paso, Texas. She went there to help watch over her grand- daughter, Keeghan, while Keeghans mom, Davina, was in Florida in connection with some military training. Davinas hus- band, Tracy, has recently returned stateside from a stint of military service in Afghanistan, but he was not sure he was up to taking care of a busy six-year-old without a lit- tle help. Crystals sister-in-law, April Obr, (Garys wife) went along to help. While there, various out- ings were taken with care being taken not to accidentally get across the border into Mexico since many roads lead there. Some thrift stores and flea markets were visited. They left a week ago Thursday and got home this Saturday with April being dropped at her home in Rapid City before Crystal returned to Belvidere. Crystal said the weather there was very hot and humid and miserable or about like it was here. She also said the main draw of El Paso would be a grand- kid and not necessarily the city it- self although there were a few old buildings that were interesting to look at or tour. Greg and Dana Badure have been kept really busy lately with their rest-area maintenance east of town since the freeway is loaded with motorcycles and other tourists. On Sunday evening, kids Brisa and Martin had a guest overnight, namely Tyce Amiotte who is a grandson of Rhonda Terk- ildsen. Dana said that suggestions of going to bed were met with re- sistance as too much fun was being had. On Wednesday, the kids par- ticipated in the fun night at the OBryans. Fun was in fact had de- spite the temperatures reaching into the hundreds that day. Bunny Green was visited by her daughter, Darlene Wiedemer, on Wednesday. Darlene had recently acquired a new poodle and needed to show it off. Wally Wells came by several days last week with the mail but couldnt stay too long as things are fairly busy up at the gas station which he runs. On Monday, Bunny was expecting a visit from her granddaughter from Okla- homa. She will be in the area sev- eral weeks visiting her mom at Sturgis. Bunnys foot has now healed enough from being stabbed by a toothpick that she was able to get out to church on Sunday. She said she wasnt quite up to foot races just yet, but at least she could get around without a lot of misery. Francie Davis and sons, Grady, Garrett and Gage, were in Philip on Friday and Saturday. Francie was on the food committee for the 4-H achievement days where they fed approximately 500 people over five meals. Francie also read some of her poetry at the talent contest although not in competition but as an addition to the event. She said reading poetry to a lot of people is a more nervous operation than reciting to family and friends. On Wednesday, Francie and boys plus Abby Fortune helped Bob and Chuck Fortune AI about 230 heifers over at the Carr place near Cedar Butte. They started early but, by the time they got done, the temperature read 99 degrees. This week, the crew will be in Kadoka helping with Rodeo Bible Camp. They will be running the conces- sion stand. Marie Addison and Grace McKil- lip attended George Andersons birthday party on Wednesday of last week at the senior citizen building in Midland. They had a blast. George turned 76, and his kids were all there to help him cel- ebrate. His youngest son, Ryan, and his wife live at Murdo and visit the ranch fairly often. Marie said they drove in heavy rain most of the way from Midland back to Murdo, but Murdo ended up get- ting very little moisture. This week, Marie will be in Montana visiting relatives and celebrating her 90th birthday a little early. She expects there will be a second party locally later this year when she ac- tually turns 90. Larry Grimme said Francie Davis and boys have been helping clean out the Christian School building lately. Lois Grimme had collected many teaching materials in her 21 years in town, and much of it was still good but needed to be distributed to other people who home school or can use it in other ways. Larry also said the bass are biting pretty well at the Belvidere Dam, and he sometimes stops to visit those who are fishing along the road. Syd Iwan traveled to Rapid City last week to get a new chair for his son, Chance, and some other sup- plies that arent available locally. The freeway was busy with many motorcycles, campers and trailers. On Sunday, if a person traveled east on the freeway, he would pass about 100 or more motorcycles headed west on the opposite lane over each ten miles. This was just the visible cycles and not those in- visible inside the many trailers also headed west.

Wednesday the Burmas went to Miller, but they left Beaver and Jade with Jim and Marjorie, who took them to Pine Ridge, where the Blackpipe ball team played Martin and won 17- 13. Then they had to wait around until it was their turn to play again, which was after midnight. They played Porcupine and won 13-0, as the game was called when they were far enough ahead. They didnt get home until 4:00 a.m. Chris WoodenKnife had a rum- mage and taco sale at the Norris Hall Friday. Friday there was a fire north of Norris beyond Corn Creek. Jan Rasmussen had guests from Minneapolis last Wednesday and Thursday. Her great-niece Jenny and family and friends (eight in all) brought their bicycles and went cy- cling in the Badlands. They cooked meals for all while they were here, and then headed to the Black Hills for more cycling and sight-seeing. Dawn and Laura Rasmussen have been busy with jewelry shows in states around the area, most re- cently in Sheridan, WY. They headed for Sturgis to set up in the South Dakota Made Products booth. Amy, Jason and Patrick Lehman spent a few days in the Hills last week. Robert and Sharon Ring were in Rapid City last Monday to keep doctor appointments for both of them. Debbie came from Spearfish to join them for the day. Louann Krogman was in Rapid City last Wednesday for a doctor appointment. Thursday Bobbi Kel- ley and Cella Hermson joined her and they traveled to Winner where they met Dorothy Richardson, who came from Nebraska to have lunch and visit with them. Friday Louann helped the girls basketball coach and team with a big rum- mage sale in White River, which benefitted the girls team. Friday evening supper guests at Blaine and Louanns home were Hilary and Evan Nesheim. Richard and Noreen Krogman were among the friends and neigh- bors at the Cedar Butte branding party at George and Delpha Fair- banks ranch Saturday, July 28. The menu included fish, rocky mountain oysters and frog legs. The frog legs were thanks to the gigging effort of Jason and Patrick Lehman. Monday, August 30, there was a pot luck meal at the Clarence Krogman home, with Father Terry Brennan as special guest. Quinn Thomas Krogman was born to Darrin and Amber Krog- man on Saturday, July 28, and weighed in at 7 lbs. 3 ozs. Cliff and Elaine went down to see them, and all seemed fine at first with the baby. However, complications arose and they flew him to Sioux Falls and put him in intensive care, where he is steadily improving and was doing well at the last report. Cliff and Elaine took Owen with them so he could see his parents and his little brother this past weekend. Adam and Jody went with them, also. Rose West and Jeannine Wood- ward were among the Master Gar- deners making the trek to Donita Denkes home and garden Satur- day. Besides a tour of the place, they also made Tin Men. August 1st was (first Wednes- day) at the museum in White River; instead of a meal, this time they served root beer floats. Lightning apparently started a fire by the barn at West and Wood- wards place, which was also appar- ently put out by the sudden downpour of rain that night, as the burned out area wasnt discovered until the next day or so. They were without power for awhile Thursday night. Tyler Ring hosted a campout in the tent in his front yard Monday, August 30. Overnight guests were Matthew and Stephanie Ring and Ryan Running Enemy. They en- joyed some swimming in the pool the next morning. Saturday, August 4, Bruce, June and Matthew Ring traveled to Rapid City, where Matthew boarded the plane and flew home to Texas. Bruce and June ran a bunch of errands around the city and found a couple good bargains be- fore heading home late that night. Wednesday morning Irene Kauf- man, Carol Ferguson, Moya Brick- man and Margie Popkes made a trip to Valentine, NE. Ed Ferguson drove a truck to Philip to leave for repairs on Thursday morning. Carol and granddaughter, Moya, followed behind in the car. They stopped in Kadoka for lunch on the return trip. Sunday Moya and Carol stopped after church to see Irene Kaufman. There will be a retirement recep- tion honoring the retiring postmas- ters in the 575 area in Kadoka on Sunday, August 12. It will begin at 2:00 p.m. MT at the community room of the Gateway Apartments. Those retiring from the United States Postal Service from this area are Carol Ferguson, Norris, Kathy Strain, White River, Rose Mooney, St. Francis, and Alta Christensen, Martin. The hardest job kids face today is learning good manners without seeing any. Fred Astaire Doug and Lynda Littau of Mesa, AZ visited in the area this past weekend. They had been in Iowa for a wedding and came on west be- fore heading back home. They vis- ited the Hubers Sunday. The Hubers have finished com- bining wheat and now are checking over the sunflowers. Kenda, Nicole, Braeden and Bradley Huber were in Winner Thursday the 27th, and one of the errands accomplished was getting haircuts for Braeden and Bradley. That was only the second haircut for Bradley, and its almost like looking at a different little boy. Gary, Anne, Marilyn, Stanley and Maureece Heinert joined the Ed and Louise Heinert family in Sparks Saturday evening for the wedding of Ed and Louises son, Cody, to Elizabeth in the church in Sparks, Nebraska. The reception and dance following the wedding was held in their restaurant there. Marilyn put her new parts to work and got in some dancing, too! The weekend of July 21, Susan and Morgan went to Custer for a family weekend at Outlaw Ranch, where Heather is employed for the summer. They enjoyed some canoe rides, rain, an illusionist/magician and some other activities. The last Saturday in July Susan and Morgan joined Nette Heinert and journeyed to Valentine to get some sweet corn. Samantha continues her intern- ship in the hospital in Yankton. Susan now works in the Norris Post Office full time. July 26, Howard and Nette Heinert visited Earl Weiss in Hot Springs. On the 30th, they picked up Bob Totton in Murdo and took him with them for a day in Pierre.

Others who came for the event were Tom and Rosella OBryan from Minnesota, Helen and John Colton of Hermosa, Ed OBryan of Nebraska and Charles son, Mike OBryan, of Martin. Thursday JaLynn Burma, Beaver, Jade, Jakki and a friend visited Maxine, getting her help with curing a rattlesnake skin they had just harvested from a snake that Jakki had spotted while they were out walking. Jason killed and skinned it, and then they went to Maxine for help. June and Matthew Ring arrived while they were there, and later had supper with Maxine. Friday, Sharon Allard left Spearfish and met Mike Carlson of Wisconsin in Kadoka, where he parked his motorcycle and rode with Sharon down to Maxines. They managed to get a bunch of chores done, as well as visiting. Saturday before they left, Sharon phoned Maxines daughter-in-law, Gertrude Ladegaard Thorenson, and handed the phone over to Max- ine, so she could visit and wish Gertrude a happy birthday. Sunday afternoon Evan and Dorothy Bligh stopped in to visit Maxine, and later that evening, June Ring came for a sandwich and dessert and fashion show. Jean, Edna and Rebekkah Kary were in Rapid City on business last Tuesday.

On Friday Castlewood was hit by a major wind and rain storm which took out three huge trees in the Simpsons yard. The damage done in Castlewood was featured on KELOLAND news. Carmen Huffman went to rural Pukwana on Thursday and spent the day visiting her mom, Dorothy Houska. On the way home that evening she encountered the wind and rain storm that hit this area. She also said that Casey and Cur- tis Huffman of Wessington Springs were traveling to Webster and had stopped in Huron on Friday when the storm in that area hit.

Parents should know that ba- bies and toddlers arent the only ones who need immunizations, said Dr. Lon Kightlinger, State Epi- demiologist for the Department of Health. Kightlinger said college fresh- men living in dorms and unvacci- nated kids entering high school are at high risk for meningococcal dis- ease and should be vaccinated. A bacterial infection, meningo- coccal disease is an inflammation of the tissues covering the brain and spinal cord. Symptoms include fever, severe headache, stiff neck, vomiting and a rash. Prompt treat- ment can prevent disability and death. Ten to 14 percent of people with the disease die and up to 19 percent of survivors may suffer permanent disabilities such as hearing loss, limb amputation or brain disease. South Dakota typi- cally reports 3 cases of meningococ- cal disease a year. To date in 2012, there have been no cases reported. A pertussis, or whooping cough, vaccine booster dose is recom- mended at 11-12 years when im- munity begins to wane. The initial pertussis series is given to children at 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 15-18 months, and 4-6 years. Whooping cough is a serious ill- ness that causes uncontrollable coughing, rib fractures, pneumo- nia, loss of consciousness and even death. Young children are at high- est risk, with two-thirds of those under age 1 who get it needing hos- pitalization. There have been six pertussis cases reported in South Dakota to date in 2012. Meningococcal vaccine is avail- able from family health care providers and campus student health centers. The department provides the vaccine for those 11-18 years of age who are eligible for the federal Vaccines for Children Pro- gram (Medicaid eligible, Native American or Alaskan Native, unin- sured or underinsured). The vac- cine is free for these children but providers may charge an adminis- tration fee. The department provides the childhood series of whooping cough vaccine and the booster dose free for 11-12 year olds. Providers may charge an administration fee. To find a vaccine provider, see http://doh.sd.gov/LocalOffices/Vac- cine.aspx. Learn more about meningitis or whooping cough at http://doh.sd.gov/DiseaseFacts/. Improving immunization rates is a key objective of the depart- ments Health 2020 initiative.

Call 6058372259 SDSU Extension Specialist says now is not a good time to treat lawns with herbicide. "As the drought continues and lawns are maintained with the semi-weekly waterings to sustain the root system, it may seem like a good time to treat all those green weeds, crab grass, quack grass, etc., etc. Please resist all inclina- tions along this line, any applica- tion of herbicide now would probably not be particularly effec- tive against the weed and the grass would be further stressed," said Katherine Osterloh, SDSU Exten- sion Horticulture Assistant. In addition, Osterloh says fertil- izing a lawn during the current drought conditions will not help keep it green or bring it back. "Again, any chemicals applied while the lawn is struggling to sur- vive would only add further stress," Osterloh said. She says the same is true for trees or shrubs. "If possible, continue to water well, but resist applying chemicals of any kind," she said. Time to water As the drought continues, and significant precipitation has not been received, if a lawn has been dormant for six weeks or longer, Osterloh says it is time to begin watering weekly. "Especially if it is bluegrass or another 'cool season' grass," Oster- loh said. She suggests an intial watering of at least an inch to inch and a half, then an inch each week after that. If this watering schedule does not bring the lawn out of dormancy, she says it may be dead and plans should be made to replace this fall. To learn more about how to manage landscape during the drought, and sustainable landscap- ing for the future, visit iGrow.org. Water lawns and trees, don't apply herbicide Winter Wheat Meeting in Draper, SD Mark your calendars and plan to attend the Winter Wheat Meet- ing at the auditorium in Draper, SD, beginning at 6:30 p.m., Thurs- day, August 16. We will start the meeting with a meal prepared by the Draper United Methodist Women and sponsored by area agribusinesses. John Rickertsen, Cropping Sys- tems Field Specialist, will discuss the Winter Wheat Crop Perform- ance Testing results, variety rec- ommendations for 2013, and provide some comments about the growing season. Jonathan Nixon, Entomology Field Specialist, will present information on insect pests affecting wheat production, some of the predators that prey on those insects and management op- tions when natural controls arent enough. Winter wheat produced an ex- cellent crop in 2012, and may be the bright spot in this cropping season. This year strengthened winter wheats importance as a major crop in south-central South Dakota, and a key component in crop rotations across the state. Tomato IPM Webinar hosted in Winner, SD If you would like to learn how to prevent pests on tomatoes from the beginning to the end of the growing season, you will want to attend the Tomato IPM Webinar for North Central Master Garden- ers. The webinar will be presented by Extension Specialists from the University of Minnesota, South Dakota State University, and the University of Illinois. The Winner Regional Extension Center will be one of the host sites for the webinar, which will be held on Tuesday, August 14, from 11:30 a.m. 1:00 p.m., CDT. The Winner Regional Extension Center is lo- cated at 325 S Monroe St., one block south of the stop light. Par- ticipants may want to bring their lunch to enjoy during the webinar. Variety selection, best planting practices, and cultural information will be covered along with how to recognize tomato diseases and deal with insect pests of tomatoes. Par- ticipants are encouraged to take a little time to read ahead the mate- rials which can be found at: http://learn.extension.org/events/5 80. Participants are also encour- aged to complete the PreTest about your knowledge of Tomato IPM prior to the webinar by visiting: http://www.zoomerang.com/Sur- vey/WEB22GB4HUTAF5. Nitrate Update Area feed testing labs are get- ting busy analyzing forages for Ni- trates. South Dakota Ag Labs reports that about 50% of the Ni- trate tests they have run so far are potentially toxic. Other labs in the region have also indicated they will keep SDSU Extension in- formed about Nitrate results as testing progresses. Wheat straw is generally con- sidered to be a safe, if low quality feed, but can contain toxic levels of Nitrate. That was recently con- firmed as a sample of wheat straw was found to contain just over 2000 ppm Nitrate. That is a level where the straw should be limited to 50% of the ration or less. Pro- ducers who plan to feed wheat straw may want to test for Ni- trates. For more information, visit: http://igrow.org/agronomy/drought /, you can find informative articles, as well as, under the Resource Li- brary, a list of factsheets and pub- lications.
