On May 29, 2012, South Dakota
Farm Service Agency (FSA) re-
ceived approval from Secretary of
Agriculture Tom Vilsack to proceed
with the implementation of the
county office consolidation plan
which includes four county offices
in South Dakota. The closed offices
are Mound City, Buffalo, Kadoka,
and Wessington Springs. The Nat-
ural Resources Conservation Serv-
ice (NRCS) offices in these four
locations remain open and commit-
ted to serving all your conservation
needs.
Over the past few years many
agencies have faced budget con-
straints and had to make budget-
related changes, such as the ones
FSA had to make, said Jeff Zim-
prich, State Conservationist with
the NRCS. We wanted to get the
word out that the NRCS will re-
main in the four mentioned offices,
and conduct business as usual.
The NRCS and conservation
partners are still located in the
USDA Service Centers. The NRCS
will continue to follow the estab-
lished model of providing conserva-
tion assistance to the
landowner/operator from the
county (service center) where the
land is located.
For more information about
technical or financial assistance,
please contact the NRCS staff in
your local USDA Service Center.
No changes for NRCS assistance in four USDA
Service Centers impacted by FSA closurse
The region of Haakon, Jackson,
and eastern Pennington counties
has been selected as one of two in
the state of South Dakota to be a
part of the Stronger Economies To-
gether (SET) program. There will
be a brief informational meeting
about this program on Thursday,
October 4 at 5:00 p.m. at the Fire-
hall in Kadoka.
The Stronger Economies To-
gether (SET) Program is sponsored
by USDA Rural Development, in
partnership with SDSU Extension
and the Regional Rural Develop-
ment Centers. It is designed to
strengthen the capacity of rural
communities and counties to work
together in developing and imple-
menting economic development
plans. Building on the current and
emerging economic strengths of the
region, the group will collaborate to
produce a plan that benefits the en-
tire region.
Ideally, 15-20 participants per
county are sought to participate on
this new regional team. Training
and technical assistance will be de-
livered by a core team of Extension
and RD staff, as well as state-wide
resource providers. The Oct. 4 in-
formational meeting will cover the
program in detail.
The second regions selected for
the grant in South Dakota is the
James River Valley Region com-
prised of Beadle, Hand, Jerauld,
Kingsburg, Spink and Clark coun-
ties. They are set to kick-off their
project on Oct. 9 in Huron.

West Region selected to participate in Stronger Economies Together Program
Derald Kulhavy was
born July 30, 1940 to
Daniel and Evelyn Kul-
havy in Bonners Ferry,
Idaho, right close to the
Canadian border. His
older sister, JoAnne
(Bitting), was also born
there. His parents
worked on a wheat
ranch.
The family of four
moved to California,
where his younger
brother, Warren, now
deceased, was born.
There, his dad worked
in the shipyards until
after the war.
Then it was off to
Dallas, SD, and other
areas in the eastern part
of the state.
In 1955 they made the
move to Belvidere where they owned and operated the Belvidere Sun-
dries. Derald finished school in Belvidere, graduating in 1960.
Derald said it was in the early 1960s that he and his brother began
working construction on missile sites and building many sections of In-
terstate 90.
Eventually, the brothers moved to Elk Mountain, WY, where they con-
tinued with a construction business. They owned 11 gravel trucks.
Another move took them to Casper, WY, where they kept two trucks
for over-the-road trips. They made many trips from Houston, TX, to
Canada and Alaska hauling oil field equipment.
Ive logged over four million miles, and Ive wore them out, he
laughed. When asked about all those miles of log books well thats an-
other story .
He is very proud to have never had a wreck and earned a Wyoming
Safety award. He still wears his belt buckle to prove it.
Oh, and he didnt forget, there was a time the brothers peddled freight
from Casper to North Dakota and back.
I had lots of fun and met a lot of friends throughout the years, Der-
ald said.
Being a welder and a mechanic, he was not only able to take care of
his trucks and trade them off before they had a million miles, but he
welded for the state on bridge crews.
He did marry, however, the marriage did not last too many years and
they never had children.
Looking at hobbies, Derald has really enjoys playing cards, elk and
deer hunting, and admits hes never shot an antelope, but maybe some-
day. And hes done a lot of bass fishing in SD and trout in WY.
He recalled many fishing trips with children, packing away 12 miles
into the wilderness area.
Once Derald suffered a stroke and could no longer drive truck, he
found a new love in woodworking. He has made clocks, napkin holders,
wall decorations, many kids novelties and baby beds that change into
three different types of beds.
In addition to the stroke, he had a portion of his right leg amputated
in early March of 2011. He then became a resident at the nursing home
on March 23, 2011.
For what Ive been through, Im in pretty good shape, he added.
Derald is a very knowledgeable historian and loves to visit with peo-
ple. He enjoys all the activities at the nursing home, said Ruby Sanft-
ner.
Congratulations for being the October Resident of the Month.

Board President Rod Renner
began the days presentations by
speaking to the crowd about the
commitment of Golden West em-
ployees and board members. He
summarized Golden Wests sixty
years of service to its members and
thanked Harold Wyatt for his
nearly 25 years of dedication and
service to the cooperative.
Golden West General Manager
Denny Law also recognized Harold
Wyatts service and talked about
Golden West building of a one of
the most robust telecommunica-
tions networks in the state includ-
ing the introduction of Cable TV
and Internet access. Mr. Law then
announced the availability of faster
Internet speed options for both res-
idential and business customers.
The new speeds range from 6x1,
15x1, 25x2 to 30x5 and will soon be
offered in designated areas.
Mr. Law also addressed how the
Federal Communications Commis-
sions (FCC) regulatory policy
changes will affect rural companies
like Golden West in their ability to
plan to invest in future technology
and infrastructure upgrades. He
talked about how the FCC is man-
dating federal guidelines on local
service rates and the resulting
penalties if companies choose not
to follow the guidelines. Law said
Golden West is working to make
certain the interests of rural cus-
tomers are understood at the FCC.
Now more than ever before we
need to make the case that our
rural communities deserve to have
the same access to advance tech-
nology as our urban neighbors,
stated Law.

1 John 4:4-6
Scripture records two occasions when Satan asked
God for permission to test a believer. The Devil at-
tempted to break the faith first of Job (1:6-12) and then
of Peter (Luke 22:31-34). Jesus warned that Satan
wanted to "sift" the disciple like wheat--shaking his faith in the way a farmer separates wheat kernels
from debris. The Enemy hoped that Peter would fall away like chaff. But both attacks ultimately failed,
and the men came through with faith restored and strengthened by the Lord. However, at the time of
trial, each found himself attacked in the most vulnerable area of his heart.
Is your life making an impact worth talking about? Are you serving God in such a way as to make
Satan feel threatened? If not, you don't need a major attack for your faith to suffer greatly. Instead of
being alert and recognizing the battle at stake, you will be lulled into uselessness like a frog in water
heating gradually to a boil.
But when you grow spiritually--rejecting lies and taking hold of the wholeness that is yours in Christ-
-you threaten the work of the Evil One. The Lord calls on you to extend His love to specific people because
you have just the right knowledge, story, or temperament to reach them. And when you do, you reclaim
stolen territory for His kingdom.
You may think you're not important, but the Lord knows your true value. As His beloved child and
friend, you have an important part in His plan for eternity. Satan fears you when you recognize this
truth. Fight back and rely on God's Spirit--greater is He who is within you!
Are You a Threat to Satan?

the victim out of a vehicle and as-
saulted him. They forced the victim
into their car for the purpose of ha-
rassing and interrogating him and
started driving back toward Wan-
blee. Law enforcement authorities
were dispatched to the area, lo-
cated the Jakeways, stopped their
vehicle, and freed the victim. The
victim suffered bruises and abra-
sions during the kidnapping.

where Tom and Lillian, her step-
mother, were living and attended
school there for one year while Lil-
lian was teaching in the Midland
school. The family moved to the
Tom Dennis farm-ranch and
Dorothy attended Prairie Queen
School for two years. Then Lillian
taught the Twin Buttes School east
of home and she, Dorothy, and a
cousin, Olivia Dennis (now Per-
ovich), lived at the school during
the week and went home on week-
ends while Dorothy was in eighth
and ninth grades. She then at-
tended high school in Midland, liv-
ing in the girls dormitory, just
north of present day Open Bible
parsonage. She worked at the co-op
grocery store during high school
years. She graduated from Midland
High School in 1942 and went to
work at a chicken farm near Rapid
City.
Dorothy married Bob Seidler on
April 30, 1943, in Midland, and
went back to work at the co-op gro-
cery store while Bob managed the
Texaco station for Ray Schultz of
Murdo. Bob and Dorothy moved to
the Jess and Kate Dennis home to
help them with their farm work
until 1953. After Dorothys dad,
Tom Dennis, died she and Bob
moved to the Tom Dennis farm-
ranch west of Highway 14 where
they lived until retiring.
They moved to Midland in 2007.
They enjoyed living in their one
story home instead of the three sto-
ries on the farm, especially because
it was just across the street from
the Midland school playground
where they could see the kids play-
ing during recess and noon break.
Dorothy served on the Pheoba
School Board from many years.
Phoeba school, post office and store
all were named for her grandfa-
ther, Phoeba Richardson, who lived
northeast of the Jess Dennis farm.
Entertainment in the early years
was card parties at the homes of
the neighbors in the area east and
west of Highway 14. That pastime
was taken up again at the Midland
Senior Center after Dorothy and
Bob retired.
Another entertainment was tak-
ing long drives when the wind was
blowing so hard it made work on
the farm miserable. They some-
times got quite a distance from
home before turning back! The
Platte-Winner Bridge, Sisseton,
Lemmon, or even into Wyoming
were some of the places they
turned the car toward Midland
again after enjoying the scenery in
places they hadnt been recently, if
ever.
While their girls were in high
school, they attended all school
events and followed MHS sports
teams. They hauled cheerleaders
for several years to out of town
events. They drove even to the far-
thest away games or anywhere the
Midland Tumblers performed,
nearly always being first to arrive,
no matter how far away!
Survivors include her husband,
Robert Bob Seidler of Midland;
two daughters, Athellen Gibbs
Westerman of Pierre, and her son,
Allen (Tammy) Gibbs and their
son, Marcus; and Phyllis Nelsen
Wells of Worland, Wyo., and her
sons, Troy (Kelly) Nelsen and son,
Wyatt, of Worland, and Terry
(Angie) Nelsen and son, Caidon, of
Sioux Falls; and many nieces and
nephews.
Dorothy was preceded in death
by her parents, Archie and Marie
Dennis.
Visitation will be held from 3:00
to 5:00 p.m. Thursday, October 4,
at the Rush Funeral Home in
Philip, and one hour preceding the
services at the church on Friday.
Funeral services will begin at
10:00 a.m. MDT Friday, October 5,
at the Open Bible Church in Mid-
land, with Pastor Andy Blye offici-
ating.
Interment will be at the Midland
Cemetery.

The prairie is currently giving
its last Hurrah! before winter,
and its putting on quite a nice
show. The cottonwoods along the
river, anyway, catch your eye with
a good assortment of yellows and
oranges. The trees in the draws
and creeks have more variety since
there are more kinds of trees there
than along the river. Elm trees, of
course, have no sense of time. They
seldom turn a pretty color. They
instead prefer to wait until a hard
frost turns the leaves brown after
which they slowly drop them. Ash
trees, though, like to adorn them-
selves with bright yellow before
going naked over a short span of
time and settling in for dormancy.
Some of my favorite fall foliage
is on those trees and plants that
turn red. We dont have many ac-
tual trees which do that, and I
think you may have to go to New
England or some other remote
place to see a lot of it. We do, how-
ever, have ivy that climbs trees
and whatnot and turns a brilliant
red in the fall. It does that quite
early in the season and seems to be
a red-flag signal for all the other
plants that winter is coming and
its time to get ready. There are
some smaller shrubs in the draws
that also turn red although most of
those have a rusty hew and not the
scarlet or flat-out red. I am not
much of an authority on brushy
plants that dont produce edible
fruit, but my dad used to call some
of them skunkberries. I have no
idea if that is a proper name for
those short bushes, but thats what
I call them. They have berries,
sure enough, but youd have to be
nutty to sample them. Wild crit-
ters dont eat them which gives
you some idea of their worth as
food.
The late-season prairie flowers
are also hanging in there although
they are somewhat stunted in this
dry old year. I notice sunflowers, of
course, that havent quite given it
up yet, but yellow gumweeds give
no indication that they are in any
way lacking moisture. Looking at
them might give you the idea that
weve had recent rains. We
havent, but you wouldnt know it
by inspecting gumweeds. I espe-
cially noticed how they line the
highways the other day after bees
started smashing against my
windshield. I had seen the hives by
the road and wondered where on
earth the bees were finding any-
thing to interest them. I scanned
the prairie and saw nothing but
brown. There certainly was no
clover or alfalfa that was still
green. Then I saw the gumweeds
all along the road. Ah, I thought.
Thats where the bees are going.
According to beekeeper friend,
Chris, gumweeds do not make
ideal honey, but I suppose they do
provide good enough food for the
bees themselves which cant be all
bad.
The other normal fall flowers
are around too. There are those
clumps of white posies which I call
asters although Im not sure that
is accurate. Most of them are
stunted but still trying. The gold-
enrod seems particularly brilliant
this year. I was stomping down a
draw the other day to get rid of a
couple of pails of stuff Id cleaned
out of the freezer above the refrig-
erator. That contraption had quit
working properly and thawed
everything out. Most of it should
have been tossed a while ago, but
you know how that goes with
freezers. Still, although it didnt
smell bad, I no longer trusted it
and decided to throw it out. Any-
way, on the way back to the house,
I saw this big, although short,
clump of goldenrod. It was eye-
catching to say the least. I was al-
most glad Id had to make the
disposal run down the draw so I
didnt miss that flower patch. I did-
nt stop to smell them since theyve
been known to make people
sneeze, but they were nice to look
at.
Then we come to yucca plants.
They, too, show no signs of
drought. They are about the only
green dotting the landscape, and,
since we have tons of them on the
hills of our rolling ranch, they do
give you hope. Yuccas, in fact, seem
to do better in dry years than wet.
They flourish. They even flower
more heavily in dry springs than
wet. I guess you have to be a cac-
tus to enjoy drought.
So, the prairie is telling us that
winter cometh. I suppose Id better
get ready. Shoot! That can wait a
bit. Instead, I think Ill go down to
the creek or spring and find me a
log to sit on under the canopy of
colorful leaves. There Ill just enjoy
my golden world and bask in its
brilliance. Theres no point in wor-
rying when you can instead sur-
render yourself to beauty.
Postscript: Got some rain on
Sunday. Nice!
Last Hurrah
Lookin Around
by Syd Iwan
Tom DeVries is a new resident of
Belvidere since he recently pur-
chased the house owned by Jeff
Willert which is across the street
northeast of the church. Tom is con-
centrating on dirt work recently
with a new machine he recently
bought. He has been working east
and south of town either repairing
stock dams or cleaning out and
deepening dry ones. He also
brought his team of horses to town
and several horse-drawn con-
veyances including a fairly fancy
one he built during the last year
and has used some already. At his
place north of old Stamford, close to
the St. Peter Lutheran Church, his
daughter, Trisha Bork, and her
husband, Landon, will be moving
there soon. Tom said he really en-
joys dirt work and has now pur-
chased enough equipment that he
can accurately figure the correct
height for dam grades and so on. It
uses some laser technology and
seems fairly accurate and easy to
use. You may recall that the house
Tom just moved into was owned by
Charles Willert before Jeff had it.
Others having lived there include
Sam and Lydia Manke way back,
Merle and Florence Rittel and Dick
Vosberg. Jeff Willert, meanwhile, is
preparing to move to his place just
west of town which was formerly
owned by Charlie Brunson. He is
awaiting the arrival of a new mo-
bile home in mid October.
Marj and Marvin Street are
back in town for a couple of weeks
in their house just east of the water
tower. Marj, as usual, helped play
for church on Sunday. During the
week, the Streets in company with
Marjs brother, Gary, and sisters,
Keitha, Elaine and Crystal, did
some work at the home of their
mom, Dolores Obr. New kitchen
cupboards were installed, as was a
new water heater. Painting was
also done. Of those here, Streets
mostly live at Cook, MN, Keitha at
Alpena and Gary and Elaine at
Rapid City. Crystal Paulson is the
only full-time local one.
Wade Fox and his sorrel horse,
Snort, were running across the
prairie this week when Snort
dropped both front legs into a hole.
This stopped the proceedings fairly
abruptly and catapulted Wade far
enough away that he wasnt
squished by a falling horse. Neither
Wade nor Snort suffered any major
injury, but Wade had a little pain
for a while in his shoulder and
knee. Snort seemed unconcerned
and spent time nibbling grass
while Wade got himself together
and remounted. The two, then, con-
tinued on their journey.
Clair Bitting consulted doctors
about his heart at the VA in Sturgis
on Saturday. His daughter, Kolette
Struble, served as chauffeur. On
Sunday, Curtis Bitting was at the
ranch looking after his mom, and
Kolette stayed overnight to keep
tabs on things.
Former resident, Terry Karrels,
in currently in the hospital at
Philip in fairly serious condition.
You may remember that Terry and
her husband, Mike, formerly
owned and lived on one of the
Berry places south of town before
moving to Miles City, MT. Terry
has brothers and other Trask rela-
tives in the Wasta/Wall area.
Bunny Green spent part of last
week in the Pierre hospital with
pneumonia. Then she spent more
time in rehab since she was having
some trouble walking. Bunny had
spent a week or more before that
with her daughter, Darlene Wiede-
mer, in Murdo while suffering with
the flu. Then she came home
briefly last Sunday and until she
started feeling poorly and was
taken to Pierre by Darlene and
Darlenes brother, Gary, who had
come from Nevada with his wife,
Trisha. Bunny had plenty of visi-
tors including her son, Vernie, and
his wife, Deb, of Black Hawk.
Garys son, Timmy, was a visitor
from Colorado, and Pierre grand-
kids, David Wiedemer and Ruth
Ann Springer, were there along
with son-in-law, Charles. Even
Bunnys dog came to see her.
Bunny is doing better now al-
though still coughing. On Sunday,
she was making plans to be back
home just as soon as possible.
Betty Kusick said the dams no
longer smell very good so she has
given up fishing at the moment.
She figured fish wouldnt taste very
good right now due to the condition
of the water.
Mark and Nicci DeVries and
sons have been either playing in or
attending quite a few football
games lately. Gavin played in a
game at Philip on Saturday. Son
Geoffrey was playing football that
day as well at a Jamboree in
Wall. On Sunday, Mark, Geoffrey
and Greyson all attended the sur-
plus auction held at the Kadoka
school. All three came home with a
laptop computer. Nicci said the
computers were a little old, but
would still work fine for games and
other things. For the second year
now, Nicci is serving as a special-ed
aide under Mrs. Smiley at the
Kadoka School. Mark, in fact, is the
only family member who isnt ei-
ther in school or teaching, but he is
coaching the junior high football
team.
Various hunting seasons are
now open including grouse, dove,
and archery antelope. As a result,
Syd Iwans nephew, Scott Jones,
came from Huron with his friend,
Minnesota Mike and spent a
week hunting and fishing at the
ranch. They left on Friday only to
be replaced by Shon Ford of Miller
and a friend of his who took up
where Scott and Mike left off.
Harvest will fill the barn;
for that the hand must ache,
the face must sweat.
Wendell Berry
Ken Koistenen arrived at Max-
ine Allards place Thursday to set
up his camper and check the trail
cameras and then headed back to
Pierre. Friday he returned, and his
son, Kelly, of Spearfish joined him
as they prepared for bow hunting
over the weekend.
Maxine and June Ring shared a
luncheon Saturday at Maxines
home. While they were eating,
Maxine received a surprise phone
call from a St. Mary classmate, also
named Maxine. They both at-
tended St. Mary in ONiell. Maxine
Fraber was calling from her home
in Omaha.

last week. The construction com-
pany came from Colorado Springs

Pierre were also there, as well as
Erica, who came from Omaha. DJ
Beckwiths other grandmother and
an aunt and uncle also came to see
him play in the football game.
The Burmas arrived Saturday
for the weekend. Harry and Ruth
Burma of Platte also came for the

The annual meeting of the
Kadoka Calvary-Fairview Ceme-
tery Association was called to order
by Vice-President Bud Olney on
September 26, 2012 at the Gate-
way Apartment Meeting Room.
Present were Bud Olney, Chuck
VanderMay and Nancy Peterson.
The 2011 annual meeting min-
utes and the 2012 treasurers re-
port were read and accepted. The
treasurers report showed balances
as follows: checking, $587.13; sav-
ings, $17,112.91; CDs, $54,649.52.
Income consisted of lot sales and
one donation for a total of
$3,408.51. Expenses of $3,518.54
were for maintenance, recording
deeds and insurance.
Old business: BankWest has
agreed to not charge a fee for the
associations checking account.
New business: Due to the pass-
ing of the associations president,
Steve Jeffords, it is necessary to ap-
point a director to fill Steves term
through 2013. Chuck moved to ap-
point Grady Crew to finish out the
term of Steve Jeffords. Nancy sec-
onded and motion carried.
In order to remove Jeffords
name from the signature card on
the checking account, BankWest
requires a formal motion in the
minutes to accomplish. Nancy
moved to remove Jeffords name
from the signature card. Chuck sec-
onded and motion carried.
Other new business is that the
filing fee for recording deeds in the
Register of Deeds Office has risen
to $30. This will cause the cost of a
lot to be increased by $15.

South Dakota State University
Extension will host training ses-
sions focused on estate planning
and transitioning the family oper-
ation in Lemmon, Philip, Redfield,
Chamberlain, Yankton and Brook-
ings, beginning Oct. 22.
Sustaining the Legacy confer-
ences have helped farm and ranch
families across the state get started
on their plans by providing the
tools and resources needed to get
started and the know-how to get it
completed, says Heather Gessner,
SDSU Extension Livestock Busi-
ness Management Field Specialist.
"Each session is filled with im-
portant information that can help
farm and ranch families address
questions they may face as parents
or grandparents get older and con-
sider their legacy," said Gessner,
who is organizing the conferences.
"Producers have told me that the
value of this program was $1 mil-
lion, due to the changes they made
to their estate plan and the reduc-
tion of potential estate taxes."
Extension staff and industry
professionals will help participants
develop the tools they need in order
to face estate-planning challenges
with less stress.
Conference dates & locations
Lemmon: Oct. 22, 23, 29 and
30-SDSU Regional Extension Cen-
ter, 408 8th Street West, Lemmon
Philip: Oct. 25, 26, Nov. 1 and
2-Bad River Senior Center, 123 E
US Hwy 14, Philip
There will be a training cost for
each person attending. Registra-
tion is required seven days prior to
the first meeting date. To register,
call Gessner at 605-782-3290. Re-
turn the registration form and
funds to Sioux Falls Extension
Center, 2001 East 8th Street, Sioux
Falls, SD 57103.
Each day of the four-session pro-
gram is full of tools and how-to in-
formation families can use to
create and implement their indi-
vidualized plan, no matter how big
or small the operation.
Topics for the sessions cover
communication styles, business
structures, goals, asset distribu-
tion, wills and probate, retirement
planning and funding, fair versus
equal distribution, tax implications
for the operation, life insurance,
long-term care insurance, trusts,
and other topics as determined by
the audiences.
"Many of the past participants
have utilized the information from
the conference to reduce potential
estate taxes and ensure that their
operation is passed down to the
next generation in a smooth, hassle
free transition," Gessner said.
All family members are encour-
aged to attend the sessions, and on-
and off-farm heirs are also invited
to learn about the tools and partic-
ipate in the discussions.
"Past participants have used
this conference to interview attor-
neys and insurance agents while
they are presenting the basics of
using the many tools available to
them," Gessner said. "If you are
making plans to retire or becoming
a partner in the operation, or if you
own farm or ranch assets, this pro-
gram is a great start for you. Our
goal is to give you the tools to de-
velop your estate plan and the mo-
tivation to get started, combined
with some gentle nudging that
keeps you moving forward with the
process."
Partial funding for this program
is provided by the South Dakota
Soybean Research and Promotion
Council.
"SDR&PC is proud to be one of
the sponsors for this year's estate
planning workshops. With rising
land values and profit margins, es-
tate planning has never been more
important," said Doug Hanson, a
SDSRPC board member and a past
participant of the conference. "My
wife and I have attended these
workshops in the past and have
found them very informative."

Thursday, September 27 the
Kadoka Lady Kougars traveled to
Martin.
Bennett County defeated
Kadoka 25-14, 21-25, 25-23, 25-18
Raven Jorgensen, Kwincy Fer-
guson and Marti Herber each had
8 service points. Marti Herber had
12 kills and Raven Jorgensen had
8. Taylor Merchen and Tessa Stout
each had 10 set assists. Taylor and
Tessa also combined for 12 digs in
the backrow.
We got off to a slow start in the
first set and just couldn't recover;
but then we were able to take the
second set playing well. The third
set was a bit of a heart-breaker; we
battled back from a 10 point deficit
to 23-24 with us serving and
missed a serve to lose the set. I
knew whoever won that third set
was likely to win the match be-
cause it is a letdown for any team
to lose a big lead or come back from
a big lead and then lose. Bennett
County played well; their defense
was very strong, they hit every-
thing, and served with power and
consistency. We didn't play too
badly but just simply had difficul-
ties adjusting to their deep spiking
and their strong defense.
Bennett County JV defeated
Kadoka JV 2-0 that same evening.
Bennett County played a stong
match against us. They played very
good defense, and we made too
many mistakes to stay competitive
in the match. Although, we did stay
in system and controlled the ball
fairly well. Tori Letellier had some
nice kills and Destiny Dale played
strong defense in the backrow. Allie
Romero did a nice job setting.
The varsity volleyball team com-
peted at the Lead-Deadwood Tour-
nament Saturday, September 29.
Kadoka defeated Hulett, WY 24-
26, 27-25, 26-24
Kadoka defeated Lead-Dead-
wood JV 25-17, 25-4
Harding County defeated
Kadoka 25-17, 25-14
The tournamet started with a
very exciting win against a strong
Hulett team. Raven Jorgensen and
Marti Herber combined for 30/30
serving with 18 points and 5 aces.
Shaley Herber had 13 kills and 1
block. Taylor Merchen had 10 set
assists. This was a battle back and
forth with many lead changes, and
the girls really had to dig deep to
pull the win out in the third set.
This was a match that tested our
toughness, and the girls stepped up
and made it happen.
We then played the Lead-Dead-
wood JV. As a team we 49/50 with
7 aces and 36 service points.
Kwincy, Raven and Shaley each
had 6 kills, and Tessa and Taylor
combined for 10 set assists. This
was a good match for us even
though is was Lead-Deadwood's JV.
We controlled the ball and adusted
to a different stylo of play.
We won pool C going 2-0. Now
we had to face Harding County in
the champoinship bracket. Eight
teams were advanced to the cham-
pionship bracket. We new we had a
good shot at Harding County;
Hulett had beaten them a few
weeks prior, and we had played
Harding County close in the Philip
Tournament. But, we just didn't
play well. We looked a little slow on
the court, maybe due to sitting for
about an hour and a half waiting to
play. Harding County would even-
tually win the tournament so that
made us feel a bit better. Kwincy
served 7/7 with 3 service points,
Raven had 6 kills and 4 digs, and
Taylor had 5 set assists.
Overall, we had to be satistfied
with coming out of the tournament
with a winning record and winning
a really tight match against a qual-
ity team like Hulett.

Marti Herber
Volleyball
In our last four matches Marti
served 43/45 with 28 service points
and 5 aces. She had 12 kills and 8
service points in our match against
Bennett County. Marti does a lot for
our team: leadership, hustle in
practice, strong on both offense
and defense, and she adds some
humor when it is needed.

Burglaries of business establish-
ments with video lottery devices
and ATM machines continue to be
a concern across South Dakota.
The series of burglaries began in
late August, with the most recent
report coming yesterday. A total of
six known burglaries in six coun-
ties have been reported to date.
The crimes are being committed
shortly after 2 a.m. There are some
related characteristics involving
the burglaries, but a commonality
is all burglaries have involved en-
tering video lottery devices and
ATM machines.
The Division of Criminal Inves-
tigation and local law enforcement
officials are asking the public and
small business owners to be cog-
nizant of suspicious activity in
their communities. Business own-
ers are encouraged to check the se-
curity procedures in their
establishments.
State officials are encouraging
anyone with information about the
burglaries to contact SA Mark
Black at 605-216-0937 or their
local law enforcement agency im-
mediately.

ObamaCare, which was signed
into law in March of 2010, was
pitched to the American people as
a way to lower the cost of health
care. Throughout the 2008 election
cycle, candidate Obama repeatedly
claimed that his health care bill
would cut premiums by an average
of $2,500 per family. Unfortunately,
while the president got his health
care bill, the American people did
not get lower premiums, and in-
stead the Affordable Care Act has
increased the cost of premiums by
over 14 percent since the president
signed the bill into law.
The Kaiser Family Foundation
recently released the results of its
annual survey of employer-spon-
sored health insurance premiums.
According to the survey, premiums
for the average family health insur-
ance plan rose by $672 per family
this year, making the average cost
of health insurance for a family
$3,000 higher now than it was in
2008 under the previous adminis-
tration.
Increases in the price of health
insurance premiums are not just
impacting the health insurance
market. The high cost of premiums
are also stifling hiring decisions
among businesses and taking away
financial resources that would nor-
mally be invested in their busi-
nesses. For example, the health
care law contains a provision that
mandates employers include cer-
tain government-determined es-
sential benefits for any
employer-sponsored health plan,
leaving almost no flexibility for an
employer to determine what is best
for his or her employees. Many of
these required benefits increase
the cost of the existing plans for
employers. Due to the increased
cost of the benefits, some small em-
ployers may decide they are no
longer able to afford health insur-
ance for their employees and will
drop coverage all together. Other
larger employers may instead place
a moratorium on hiring while they
wait to determine how the cost of
including the essential benefits in
their health care plans impacts
their bottom line.
As President Obama cam-
paigned around the country in sup-
port of his health care law in 2009
he famously said, If you like your
plan you can keep it. Yet the
higher cost of premiums is already
preventing people who liked their
plan from keeping the coverage
they previously had, including in-
dividuals who have Medicare Ad-
vantage plans. According to the
Obama administrations own esti-
mate, nearly 80 percent of small
businesses will be forced to give up
their current coverage by 2013.
I strongly believe in ensuring ac-
cess to high quality health care for
all Americans. I also believe it is
important to provide options and
choice in the marketplace, and to
allow individuals, not the federal
government, to decide on the plan
that is best for them. ObamaCare
has been built on a series of broken
promises to the American people, it
is time for Congress to repeal the
law and replace it with common
sense solutions that actually lower
costs and create choice in the mar-
ketplace.
ObamaCare: Higher costs and fewer jobs
By Senator John Thune
One of the most frightening
things I can imagine is looking my
loved ones in the eyes and not
knowing who they are. For too
many South Dakotans, Alzheimers
disease has turned that kind of fear
into a reality. This degenerative
disease causes problems with
memory, thinking and behavior,
and it impacts 19,000 South
Dakota seniors.
Recently, I was in Watertown to
participate in the Alzheimers
Walk, and was humbled to be an
honorary chairperson. Being a part
of this event and visiting with
those with Alzheimers as well as
caregivers was eye opening and
heart wrenching. Alzheimers is the
sixth leading cause of death in
America, and it cannot be pre-
vented, cured or even slowed.
But this doesnt mean there is
nothing we can do. While research
is ongoing, the rest of us can help
by increasing awareness about
Alzheimers and providing support
to caregivers. For example, funds
raised by the walk in Watertown
are split evenly between national
Alzheimers research and support
of local programs such as a Respite
Scholarship Program, which helps
caregivers get a break from the
emotional stress of caring for some-
one with Alzheimers.
One thing Ive heard often from
those in the Alzheimers commu-
nity is that too few understand the
challenges that people with the dis-
ease face every day. We can help
change that. September is World
Alzheimer's Month, and I want to
encourage all South Dakotans to
take a moment and think about
this disease and how they can
share love with someone with it or
someone impacted by it.

Investing in Americas Rural
Communities
As producers face an historic
and ongoing drought today, Presi-
dent Obama and I are doing all we
can to help farmers and ranchers
mitigate its effects while helping
communities to overcome the eco-
nomic challenges posed by the
drought.
To carry out our work on behalf
of communities and producers,
USDA has relied on programs au-
thorized by the 2008 Farm Bill.
Parts of that law, including author-
ization of USDA disaster assistance
for livestock producers, expired last
year. Other aspects of the law ex-
pire on October 1st and over the
next few months if Congress fails to
act.
Unfortunately, the House lead-
ership has left Washington without
passing a new comprehensive, mul-
tiyear Food, Farm and Jobs Bill.
When the current Farm Bill ex-
pires, this will leave producers with
needless uncertainty as they work
hard to get through the current
drought particularly Americas
dairy producers, who will lose ac-
cess to a critical dairy safety net
program on September 30.
Inaction by Congress also
threatens USDAs efforts to invest
in our small towns, and help grow
the rural economy. One good exam-
ple is our capacity to provide com-
munity infrastructure and facilities
across the nation.
Since 2009, USDA has made a
record level of loans and grants to
small towns to help them provide
more community services and build
more community facilities. In fact,
our efforts have made possible
more than 7,700 community facili-
ties projects nationwide, impacting
nearly 31 million rural Americans.
That includes more than 3,200
projects to improve public safety
putting in a police or fire station,
for example, or helping a town re-
place an aging piece of fire equip-
ment.
It includes more than 1,000
medical clinics and hospitals, re-
ducing the long drives you some-
times face to visit a doctor, and
ensuring that care is readily avail-
able in case of a medical emer-
gency.
And it includes projects to im-
prove education opportunities for
rural Americans. Weve invested in
projects to build or improve more
than 900 schools and community
colleges, along with 475 libraries,
to ensure that rural Americans
have the same educational oppor-
tunities as city residents.
These community facilities are
just one piece in our plan to em-
power rural America and they
stand as a part of the long list of
record achievements USDA has
posted in the past three years.
At USDA, we will continue our
efforts to help producers and to in-
vest in small towns and rural com-
munities. Meanwhile we need
Congress to get their job done to
ensure that we can continue these
accomplishments in the coming
years.

Mines beats Harvard by $2,600.
Why is this happening? Because
the School of Mines is offering
high-quality programs in the engi-
neering fields where there are
lots of jobs and strong demand for
more highly skilled graduates.
In a third piece of good news,
South Dakotas Lake Area Techni-
cal Institute (LATI) was named in
September as one of 10 finalists for
the Aspen Prize for Community
College Excellence, which is the na-
tions signature recognition of high
achievement and performance in
Americas community colleges.
This is the second year in a row
that LATI has been honored in this
way.
Dakota State, the School of Mines,
and LATI are not alone. Every one
of South Dakotas universities and
technical institutes offers great
programs that prepare our stu-
dents to compete in high-demand
fields from accounting or medi-
cine at USD, to engineering and
pharmacy at SDSU, to banking
and music education at Northern
State, to science and math educa-
tion at Black Hills State, to highly
focused programs for careers in
health care, manufacturing, elec-
trification, and other needed occu-
pations at our other great technical
institutes.
We hear a lot about the unem-
ployment rate among young people,
but that's not a big problem for
graduates from any of the pro-
grams I just mentioned. It's some-
thing for high school students to
think about as they plan for higher
education: Try to find an education
major that will get you a job at the
end.
There are plenty of great op-
tions, right here in South Dakota.
Sometimes South Dakota can
have an inferiority complex. Be-
cause we're small or because we're
rural, we sometimes think we don't
stack up with other places. But
being small and rural doesn't mean
being second-rate. Three national
news stories recently reported that
South Dakota has a lot to cele-
brate.
The October 2012 issue of Fast
Company magazine includes an ar-
ticle entitled "Schooling Cybernin-
jas." The article reports that the
National Security Agency, a part of
the U.S. Department of Defense, is
working hard to train new com-
puter security experts to protect
our nation's online infrastructure
from attacks. As the article notes,
"The goal is to create a pipeline of
government-vetted talent, and
with it, a robust line of virtual na-
tional defense."
NSA selected four universities to
launch NSA-certified cybersecurity
programs. One of those four schools
is Dakota State University. Gov.
Bill Janklow made Dakota State
"the computer school" in the 1980s,
and in the decades since, DSU has
developed cutting-edge programs
in information assurance, biomet-
rics, and other information technol-
ogy fields. DSU has a national
reputation for excellence and it is
right here in South Dakota.
Another South Dakota univer-
sity was featured by Bloomberg
News on Sept. 18. The article,
headlined "Harvard losing out to
South Dakota in graduate pay,"
noted that while a Harvard gradu-
ate earns an average $54,100 start-
ing salary, a new graduate of the
South Dakota School of Mines and
Technology earns $56,700 on aver-
age. That's right the School of

fewer tools to help strengthen
American agriculture and grow a
rural economy that supports 1 in
12 American jobs. Authority and
funding for additional programs is
set to expire in the coming months.
Without action by the House of
Representatives on a multi-year
Food, Farm and Jobs bill, rural
communities are today being asked
to shoulder additional burdens and
additional uncertainty in a tough
time. As we continue to urge Con-
gress to give USDA more tools to

On October 1, 2012 Agriculture
Secretary Tom Vilsack made the
following statement on the expira-

"Many programs and policies of
the U.S. Department of Agriculture
were authorized under the Food,

a great number of critical programs
impacting millions of Americans,
including programs for farm com-

safety, and agricultural trade. As of
today, USDA's authority or funding
to deliver many of these programs

The South Dakota Stockgrowers'
121th Annual Convention and
Trade Show wrapped up after three
days of speakers and meetings to
update members on policies, elec-
tion of officers for the association
and adoption of several new poli-
cies.
"This year's convention was very
successful and we were glad to see
so many members and friends join
us," said Shane Kolb, President of
the Stockgrowers Association from
Meadow, SD. "We had some very in-
teresting speakers and had some
very good discussions with our
members about our policies and
work as we look to the future of our
industry."
Bill Bullard, CEO of R-CALF
USA, started off the convention on
Friday morning with a very inform-
ative presentation about a variety
of issues impacting Stockgrowers
policy on the national level. Among
other things he updated Stockgrow-
ers members on recent develop-
ments with Country of Origin
Labeling, Beef Check-off reform,
animal identification and the farm
bill process.
SD Secretary of Agriculture Walt
Bones gave the keynote address
during the Awards Banquet and
presented information regarding
the Department of Agriculture's ef-
forts to promote livestock produc-
tion, specifically feeding capacity, in
South Dakota. Bones also shared
the results of the Key Leaders
Roundtable planning session
hosted in June to help guide the De-
partment's priorities on items like
water management, youth in agri-
culture, infrastructure develop-
ment, zoning, research at SDSU
and increasing livestock produc-
tion.
George Chambers, President of
R-CALF USA addressed the audi-
ence on Friday evening. His presen-
tation urged producers to get
involved in organizations like
Stockgrowers and to represent their
industry with pride. Chambers
said, "The issues we face today will
shape our children's ability to be
successful in the cattle business.
We need every producer to be 'all in'
if we're going to keep moving for-
ward."
Greg Hanes of the U.S. Meat Ex-
port Federation based in Denver
spoke about his organizations ef-
forts to promote beef in foreign
countries. Hanes focused his pres-
entation on the growing demand for
beef in Asian countries where the
consumer purchasing power is
growing much faster than their
ability to produce quality beef. He
shared several very interesting
facts about the export opportunities
for US raised beef and comparison
to other beef producing countries'
capacity to grow their market
shares. Joining Hanes was SD Sen-
ator Shantel Krebs who spoke
about her recent trip to China.
The Brand Committee meeting
featured a panel of speakers that
included Brand Board members
Scott Vance of Faith and Wanda
Blair of Vale, and Brand Board Di-
rector Larry Stearns. The discus-
sion focused largely on the proposed
brand legislation and the recent fee
increase for inspections. The Board
is now proposing several additional
legislative changes dealing with
shippers permits, rodeo stock, and
elimination of horse inspection.
The Wildlife Committee hosted
the Wall FFA Ag Issues Team to

students presented the case and an-
swered questions about the case
which attempted to hold the State
of SD accountable for damages
caused by the explosion of the
prairie dog population and en-
croachment onto private lands.
Other speakers included Max
Main, attorney from Belle Fourche
speaking about oil and gas leases
on private property, U.S. Congres-
sional candidate Matt Varilek, Vicki
Olson speaking about wilderness
designations and coordination with
local governments, SD Representa-
tive Stace Nelson, SD Cattle-
women, and Dr. Amanda Blair who
spoke about her research on fetal
programming in beef cattle.
Officers Elected
During the membership meet-
ing, Stockgrowers members re-
elected Shane Kolb as the President
and Bob Fortune as Vice-president.
This is the second one-year term for
both men. Kolb is a rancher and
brand inspector from Meadow and
has been an active member of
Stockgrowers for many years. Vice-
president Fortune ranches with his
family on their operation south of
Belvidere and he serves as a mem-
ber of the South Dakota Beef Indus-
try Council.
Randy Volmer of Owanka was
elected as Region 3 Vice-president.
Marvin Jobgen will serve as Direc-
tor from District 3, and Matt Kam-
merer of Rapid City was elected to
represent District 8, replacing
Craig Shaver whose term ended
this year. Brad Bunker of Arlington
replaced Joan Wollschlager as Di-
rector in District 17.
New Policies Adopted
Stockgrowers policy platforms
that guide the Association through-
out the year are adopted by mem-
bers during the convention and this
year four committees proposed poli-
cies to be adopted.
Cattlemen's Beef Board mem-
bers Vaughn Meyer and Linda
Gilbert spoke during the conven-
tion and explained the procedure
that their committee uses to ap-
prove funding requests for Checkoff
dollars to be spent. The Marketing
committee proposed a policy that
includes several specific points for
reforming the Beef Checkoff to in-
clude more transparency and ac-
countability from contractors and to
call for the separation of the check-
off funds from policy organizations.
The policy was adopted by the
membership.
The Stockgrowers Wildlife Man-
agement Committee adopted a very
comprehensive policy that seeks to
address the funding mechanism in
the State Prairie Dog Management
Plan. The policy resolution adopted
by the members calls on the State
Dept of Ag and the SD GF&P to
fully fund the management plan as
required by the existing state law.
Stockgrowers also amended
their agriculture land taxation pol-
icy to include strong call for the con-
tinued implementation of the
production based property tax sys-
tem with an allowance for the ac-
tual use of the property rather than
a strict highest-and-best use ap-
proach currently being used.
Stockgrowers Honor Members
and Present Awards
Bill Kluck of Mud Butte, Joan
Wollschlager of Lake Preston and
Scott Edoff of Hermosa were each
presented with a Regional Work-
horse Award. The award recognizes
them for their dedication and out-
standing work to represent Stock-
growers policy, recruit members,
and support the work of the Stock-
growers Association.
Mike Maher received a new hat
from Star of the West Hat Company
and Larry Nelson received a Stock-
growers coat for recruiting the most
members in the last year. Maher re-
cruited 31 new members and Nel-
son recruited 23 throughout the
last year.
Amanda Kammerer of Rapid
City received a $1,000 Guy E Ham
Beef Industry Scholarship from the
SD Stockgrowers Association and
the SD Cattlewomen.
"This convention was a great ex-
ample of the wide number of issues
that our members are involved in
and the policies that impact so
many aspects of the ranching in-
dustry," said Kolb. "We appreciate
everyone who attended the conven-
tion and all the businesses and in-
dividuals who donated to our
auction and sponsored the events."

Thanks to the Kadoka and

Healthy Snacks
While Hunting
The fall colors are starting to ap-
pear and the air is getting crisp. It
is that time of the year when
hunters are out walking long dis-
tances trying to locate their prey.
Many hunters are so intent on
their mission of hunting that they
begin their day with sunrise and
can go hours and hours without
taking a break. Many hunters
dont associate their hunting activ-
ities with exercise, even though
they are getting quite a workout.
With good planning, hunters can
pack enough healthy snacks to
have the energy they need to com-
fortably make it through the day.
Eating well and staying hy-
drated are vital to having a posi-
tive hunting experience. Dont
forget to drink before getting
thirsty. If you wait until you feel
thirsty, you have already become
dehydrated. Pack frozen or par-
tially frozen bottled water to enjoy
through the day.
There is a lot of junk food that
falls into the fast and easy
snacking categories such as sodas,
chips and candy bars. It takes only
a little time and effort to make
your own healthy snacks to pack.
Items you may want to include are
whole wheat crackers, fresh fruit
such as an apple, orange or ba-
nana (which are naturally
portable), a fruit smoothie in a
thermos, or fiber-rich cereal eaten
dry from a baggie.
Trail mix is a good snack to con-
sider and it is easy to grab and go.
Mix together any combination of
nuts, raisins, pretzels and whole-
grain cereals and store in individ-
ual bags. The nuts are a good
source of protein and raisins are a
nutrient dense source of natural
energy, vitamins and minerals.
Mix yogurt raisins, dried fruit and
cranberries in your trail mix for
creative variations.
Consider packing a small, insu-
lated backpack with reusable ice
packs or frozen 100% juice boxes to
keep perishables food safe. Pack
yogurt with granola, frozen grapes,
low-fat cheese cubes, vegetable
sticks with low-fat dressing pack-
ets, leftover slices of turkey or
chicken, or pickles (wrapped in
plastic or foil). These snacks use
small amounts of space in a back-
pack, but would serve as tasty,
healthy treats throughout the day.
By planning your nutritious
snacks when hunting, you can pre-
vent between-meal hunger and
avoid overeating later. Obtain

Controlling Prairie Dogs
Although prairie dogs currently
inhabit a small percentage of their
original range, they can severely
reduce the available grazing in
areas where they are established.
The reduction in grazing becomes
particularly noticeable in dry
years, as grass production is signif-
icantly less than years with good
rainfall.
There are biological, cultural
and mechanical methods of control
that can be used to help manage
prairie dogs, but producers gener-
ally rely most heavily on chemical
(baits and fumigants) control
methods. Zinc phosphide has been
the bait control option for many
years, with aluminum phosphide
and gas cartridges providing the
fumigant options. Rozol was ap-
proved for a brief time in South
Dakota, and after being removed
from the registered products for
prairie dog control, will again be
allowed beginning October 1, 2012.
If you are planning to apply
Rozol, its important to know that
there are some key label changes
from the previous period when it
was registered in South Dakota.
The treatment period is now Octo-
ber 1 to March 15, with no mention
of spring green-up. According to
the current label, the applicator
must return to the site within 4
days after the bait application, and
at 1 to 2 day intervals to collect
and properly dispose of any bait or
dead and dying prairie dogs found
on the surface. These inspections
must continue for at least 2 weeks,
but longer if carcasses are still
being found. The label outlines
specific requirements for conduct-
ing the inspections and disposing
of the bait and dead or dying
prairie dogs and other informa-
tion.
The Rozol label must be in-
cluded when buying the product,
and can be accessed online at:

South Dakotas Rank in
United States Agriculture
The USDA National Ag Statis-
tics Service reports that in 2011,
South Dakota ranked first in al-
falfa hay, all hay, bison and sun-
flower seed production. The
sunflower seed production ranking
may be temporary, as North
Dakotas acreage was down sub-
stantially in 2011 because of wet
planting conditions.
South Dakota also ranked third
in flaxseed, honey, and proso millet
production, as well as lambs born.
The Rushmore state came in
fourth in oat and sorghum for
grain production, and fifth for beef
cows that have calved and land in
farms and ranches. Included in the
sixth place ranking were all sheep
and lambs, all wheat production,
calves born, corn for grain, durum
wheat, heifers 500 lbs and over,
market sheep and lambs, other
spring wheat production and win-
ter wheat production.
Falling into the seventh place
category was harvested acreage of
principal crops, and steers 500 lbs
and over, while the eighth place in-
cluded all cattle and calves, cattle
and calves on feed, and soybean
production. Finally, South Dakota
ranked ninth in all other hay pro-
duction and pigs born.

Annual Conference, Brookings, SD

Cow-calf producers can assess
the value of their cattle and gain
valuable performance information
with the 2012-2013 Calf Value Dis-
covery Program, offered by SDSU,
says Julie Walker, SDSU Extension
Beef Specialist.
"The CVDP is a exceptional way
for cow-calf producers to get sci-
ence-based data that can make a
difference in their operations,"
Walker said. "Once they enter cat-
tle into the program, they will re-
ceive updates on performance and
that information can help them to
make better management deci-
sions. Many producers have used
this program to increase their op-
erational profit."
There is cost for the CVDP per
head for registration. Producers
will consign a minimum of five 500-
to 800-pound steers to the pro-
gram. Extension and SDSU staff
will feed those cattle in an acceler-
ated finishing program at Vander-
Wal Yards near Bruce, S.D.
Cow-calf producers must sign up
before October 15. To do so, they
can complete a participation form
and send payment to Julie Walker,
South Dakota State University,
Box 2170, Brookings, SD 57007.
Call Walker at 605-688-5458 or e-
mail questions to her at this ad-
dress: Julie.Walker@sdstate.edu.
Questions can also be addressed to
Warren Rusche at 605-882-5140 or
email questions to him at
Warren.Rusche@sdstate.edu .
The CVDP Web site is available
at this link:
www.sdstate.edu/ars/species/beef/c
alf-value/index.cfm. From the site,
producers can get information on
the costs, data they will receive,
and download registration forms.
Producers should make checks
payable to SDSU Department of
Animal Science. Staff will receive
cattle at the Cottonwood Agricul-
tural Experiment Station near
Philip, S.D., on Oct. 22, or at Van-
derWal Yards near Bruce on Oct. 23
or 24.
"Groups of cattle will be sold in
truckload lots using a grid pricing
system starting on approximately
May 15," Walker said.
"We require that the cattle en-
tered into the program be dehorned
and castrated, as well as healed,
before they arrive at the feedlot,"
Walker said. "Calves do not have to
be weaned or pre-conditioned to
participate, be we do ask that cow-
calf producers let us know before
they arrive so that we may admin-
ister vaccinations and de-worming
treatments upon arrival for calves
that are not pre-conditioned."
The program will finance feed,
yardage and veterinary bills of the
cattle in the program, and any
death loss will be shared among
participants. Walker said the pro-
gram can benefit cow-calf produc-
ers in South Dakota.
"We had solid participation in
the program last year and invite
producers to return, and we're
happy to answer questions for
other producers who have not tried
the CVDP," Walker said.
