Harold G. Schnee was born on April 7, 1917 to Bob and Maggie (Illing-
worth) Schnee in Kadoka, South Dakota.
And to this family, Harold had two brothers, Milo and Linton, and one
sister, Ruth Solberg.
Harold went to grade school in Kadoka and graduated the salutato-
rian of his high school graduating class. He rode a horse six miles to
school for several years. That was until I talked my parents into buying
me a bicycle, which was a big mistake, Harold said with a laugh. How-
ever, he enjoyed driving his mother to church six miles with a single
horse buggy.
He married Mary J. Burton on August 19, 1967 and they made their
home in Kadoka.
Harolds family is made up of four children: Clinton, Carol (Labau),
Caron (Mielke), and one stepdaughter, Teresa Burton (Smith).
He is also lucky to have five grandchildren living in Kadoka: Aubrey
Schnee and Ana, Molly, Kate and Max KcKeehan.
After serving in the United States Army from 1942-1945, he returned
to his hometown of Kadoka where he continues to live.
Some of the organizations Harold has belonged to include the Pres-
byterian Church in Kadoka where he served as a Deacon for 50 years. He
was also on the school board for 30 years and served as the president for
one year.
One of Harolds favorite hobbies include 30 years of riding motorcy-
cles, including going to the rally in Sturgis. He started the first Family
Wagon Train in this area and the Badlands Wagon Train. He also spent
time breaking horses and mules to drive. Harolds dad had the first mules
in the country so Harold grew up with them.
Other hobbies hes enjoyed throughout the years are ballroom dancing
and square dancing.
For 36 years he ran a dairy; at one time he had one of the biggest grade
A dairies in the State of South Dakota. Harold served on the state dairy
board for several years and also was also on the Black Hills Milk Produc-
ers board. He sold the dairy in 1980 and went back to sheep. Bum lambs
put Harold through school.
And dont forget the many times he was in the Days of 76 Parade in
Deadwood, both riding (playing the doctor) and driving a team and
wagon.
Harold has always been a big animal lover and had many excellent
working dog who would do anything for him.
He became a resident at the Kadoka Nursing Home on August 2, 2011
and he is also the second oldest resident at the home.

SDSU Extention
One year later
This fall, many livestock produc-
ers veterinarian Jim Stangle works
with have to be creative when it
comes to finding forage for their
cattle.
The drought left them with re-
duced hay supplies and little to no
winter grazing. To help ensure that
the forages his clients find are safe
to feed, the Haakon County veteri-
narian tests samples of standing
forages for nitrates.
"Because of the drought we
knew nitrates would be a big prob-
lem this year. I took an SDSU Ex-
tension training course so I could
provide local testing to producers
in my area," said Stangle, who was
one of many South Dakota veteri-
narians to receive certification
from SDSU Extension this summer
on the Nitrate Quik test.
Along with getting their forages
tested for nitrates, Stangle says
that because many of his clients
have to purchase additional forages
or protein supplements, this year,
many cattle producers rely on
SDSU Extension to provide them
with unbiased information on af-
fordable options, as well as, cus-
tomized feed rations.
"Because they aren't selling a
product, producers know they can
trust SDSU Extension Field Spe-
cialists for unbiased recommenda-
tions," Stangle said.
Adele Harty is the SDSU Exten-
sion Cow/Calf Field Specialist
Stangle works with. She is one of
about 40 SDSU Extension Field
Specialists hired when a new
staffing model was put into place
Oct. 2011 as part of a complete
SDSU Extension reorganization,
implemented to comply with state
budget cuts.
Specialized, focused
and ready to serve
Harty has worked within SDSU
Extension since 2005. When she
was rehired in 2011 as an SDSU
Extension Field Specialist her job
description changed. Although she
continues to serve livestock produc-
ers, within the new staffing model,
Harty now focuses on working
specifically with cow/calf produc-
ers. And, instead of only serving
producers within a seven-county
area, she works with all South
Dakota cattle producers.
"I was raised on a cow/calf oper-
ation. My education is focused in
cow/calf nutrition. Before I was re-
hired, I worked with all livestock
producers. Now that I'm able to
focus on, and work with solely
cow/calf producers; I can utilize my
knowledge, experience and educa-
tion to help SD cow/calf producers
to become better at what they are
already good at," Harty said.
As a field specialist within
today's SDSU Extension staffing
model, Harty and her peers are ex-
pected to have their master's de-
gree. Also, instead of working out of
county offices, today field special-
ists office in one of eight regional
centers, but often travel through-
out the state.
"This provides a greater level of
expertise to the entire state," said
Rosie Nold, SDSU Extension Pro-
gram Director for Agriculture and
Natural Resources. "Instead of gen-
eralists in each county, we have
several specialized staff serving the
entire state. This allows SDSU Ex-
tension to provide a deeper level of
focus, expertise and research-based
information to help solve the chal-
lenging questions or issues South
Dakotans face."
Karla Trautman, Associate Di-
rector of SDSU Extension adds
that because Field Specialists serve
the entire state, there is an in-
creased focus on collaboration be-
tween SDSU Extension Field
Specialists, SDSU faculty and sup-
porters throughout the state.
"The synergies created today are
incredible," Trautman said.
Kiersta Machacek, principal of
Hayward Elementary in Sioux
Falls would agree. By working with
SDSU Extension, her students now
have a school garden.

Romans 8:32-39
We all experience hardship, and trials can shake us
unless we cling to truth. Let me share three assurances
to remember when troublesome circumstances arise.
First, God will always meet our needs. This doesn't
mean He provides everything we want. Instead, the Lord will bless us with all that is necessary to fulfill
His purpose for our lives. His goal is to sanctify us, not simply to satisfy each immediate desire.
Second, we're never alone. God promised to be with us always (Heb. 13:5). Loneliness often accompa-
nies hardship, so we may feel deserted or opposed by family and friends. But our Father has sent His
Spirit to be with us and in us, until the day He brings us to heaven (John 14:16-17). He is all we need--
our advocate, guide, helper, and comforter. Recognizing His intimate presence gives us confidence in the
midst of trials.
Third, God's love is eternal. Regardless of our circumstances or poor decisions, His care is uncondi-
tional--even when He reprimands us. Loving parents allow disobedient children to experience the conse-
quences of wrong choices; they recognize the benefit of learning from mistakes. Of course, there are also
times when we are negatively affected by others' wrong actions. Even then, God is sovereign and allows
only what will bring good in His followers' lives.
In difficult times, we can remember that God will meet all of our needs, is always with us, and loves
us forever. Though Jesus said we would face troubles in this life, He offered encouragement: The ultimate
victory is His. So keep in mind that trials are fleeting, whereas our Father's love is forever.

Dear Editor,
The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien will
appear December 14 at the movie
theaters around the country. Many
people have already enjoyed the
movie version of The Lord of the
Rings which was also written by
Tolkien.
The Hobbit has been widely re-
spected as a childrens book but it
has often been ignored by adults.
Many of its themes are very rele-
vant to our modern world and
many of the ideas are the same as
Christian thought. Some of these
ideas include;
The struggle between good and
evil;
The good and bad use of power;
The corrupting power of greed
and selfishness;
The significance of human
choice and value of one committed
individual;
The idea of self-sacrifice.
These are all thoughts that per-
meate The Hobbit but are also
prevalent in the Gospel of Jesus
Christ.
I cannot recommend The Hobbit
movie since it has not yet appeared
but I recommend the book. On
these long winter nights let Bilbo
and Gandof, the wizard transport
you the world of Middle Earth.
Sincerely Yours,
/s/Gary McCubbin,
pastor at the
Presbyterian Church in Kadoka
and the Belvidere
Community Church
I was just turning 30 years old
when I first noticed blood in my
urine. I tried the time-honored
method of ignoring it for a bit hop-
ing it would go away, but it contin-
ued, and so I saw a doctor friend
who thought it might be a form of
kidney disease innocently called
minimal-change disease. He
said, This means that it could be
up to ten years before your kidneys
would fail. I think he was trying
to be reassuring, but it turned my
blood cold.
Making the story short, the
blood was not from the kidney,
came as a result of jogging, and
thankfully here I am 33 years later
with working kidneys. It made me
reflect not only on the direction of
my life, but also on the causes of
renal failure and kidney disease.
There are many inherited rea-
sons for the kidney to fail, the most
common of which is called polycys-
tic kidney disease where the kid-
neys become filled-in by cysts,
which choke off normal kidney
function. There is little any indi-
vidual can do to prevent something
like this since it happens by the
luck of a genetic coin toss.
Kidney disease can also be the
result of many acquired condi-
tions. Several are caused by the
immune system gone awry, which
follows infectious conditions such
as Hanta virus and certain strep-
tococcus bacterial infections. These
are simply the consequence of a
bad break being at the wrong place
at the wrong time.
What is most important to real-
ize, however, is that there are
many causes of kidney disease
that can be prevented. Of course
high blood pressure, obesity, and
diabetes all run in families but un-
like the polycystic type of condi-
tion, these can often be effectively
treated with appropriate medi-
cines and with a life-style change
of exercising more and eating less.
Sometimes kidney damage re-
sults from certain medicines, such
as a common Chinese herbal med-
icine or kidney toxicity from too
many pain relievers for too long.
You should know that daily doses
of Tylenol, Advil, and Aleve for
many months could actually harm
your kidneys.
It is 33 years after a big scare in
my life, and I do not take my
health and especially my kidneys
for granted. Neither should you.

Taking Kidneys for Granted
Thomas S. McDonnell_____________
Thomas S. Tom McDonnell,
age 101, of Wall, S.D., died Friday,
November 30, 2012, at the Philip
Nursing Home.
Thomas S. McDonnell was born,
along with his twin brother, Vern,
on May 15, 1911, on their parents
homestead 10 miles north of
Quinn, the son of Frank and Ida
(Riesing) McDonnell.
They grew up on the homestead
and received their education at the
Huron Township rural school in
that area. As a young man, Tom
farmed in the Quinn area.
Tom was united in marriage to
Rose Melvin on December 24,
1945, at Cheyenne, Wyo. Tom and
Rose, along with his brother, Vern,
and Verns wife, Beulah, farmed on
the family homestead. Tom later
purchased a D-8 Cat scraper and
Dozer, and built dams and roads in
the Quinn area for over 10 years.
In 1972, Tom and Rose moved
into Wall, yet Tom returned to the
homestead daily. After Roses
death on October 12, 2001, Tom
continued to reside in Wall. In
2009, at the age of 98, he remained
active operating the D-7 Cat and
did a lot of dirt work for his
nephew Steve. In May 2010, Tom
moved into the Philip Nursing
Home where he joined his brother,
Vern.
Survivors include his twin
brother, Vern McDonnell of Philip;
his nephew, Steven McDonnell and
his wife, Terry, of Quinn, and his
niece, Lea Ymker, of Armour; 18
nieces and nephews; a sister-in-
law, Cecilia Melvin of Wall; and a
host of other relatives and friends.
In addition to his wife Rose, Tom
was preceded in death by his fa-
ther Frank in 1955, his mother Ida
in 1957; and a great-nephew
Travis McDonnell.
Graveside services were held
Tuesday, December 4, at the Wall
Cemetery, with Father Leo Haus-
mann officiating.
At Tom's request, in lieu of flow-
ers memorials are to be directed to
the Philip Nursing Home.
Arrangements were with the
Rush Funeral Chapel of Wall.

Robert John Reedy________________
Robert John Reedy, 67, Vale,
S.D., died Thursday, November 29,
2012, at his residence in Vale.
Mass of Christian burial was
celebrated Monday, December 3,
2012, at St. Mary's Star of the Sea
Catholic Church in Newell with
Father Tyler Dennis officiating.
Burial was at the Vale Cemetery.
Robbie was born January 18,
1945, in Kadoka to John and Emi-
lie (Barcal) Reedy. He grew up in
a family of six children north of
Philip, near the Grindstone
Buttes. He graduated from Philip
High School in 1963. Robbie then
attended one year at the South
Dakota School of Mines & Technol-
ogy.
He joined the U.S. Navy and
served in Germany for two years
before being assigned to the U.S.
Embassy in Cyprus for another
two years. He was one of only two
who earned the rank of 2nd Class
Petty Officer in the entire U.S.
Navy that year.
Following his honorable dis-
charge, Robbie returned to Philip
after the death of his younger
brother to help run the family
ranch. He married Paula Weiss on
June 9, 1973, in Mondovi, Wisc.
They ranched in Philip until 1977
when they moved to Fairpoint,
where they ranched until 1988.
They then moved to Newell. Rob-
bie always said, "They were tough
but wonderful years." Robbie then
became a surveyor for the Bureau
of Reclamation. In 2001, he began
working at the Department of Vet-
erans Affairs, Fort Meade.
His family was Robbie's greatest
treasure. He loved to dance, was
a great storyteller, and was a good
friend to many. He loved his
friends, ranching, surveying, and
taking care of those in the nursing
home. Robbie was a member of St.
Mary's Star of the Sea Catholic
Church, the Vale Township Board,
the Knights of Columbus, and the
Philip American Legion and both
the Fairpoint and Vale fire depart-
ments.
He is survived by his wife,
Paula, Vale; his children, Julie
(Scott) Wheeler, Sundance, Wyo.,
Will (Misty) Reedy, Vale, Christy
(Darrin) Jons, Pierre, Mary Reedy,
Rapid City, Anna (Chris) Skeen,

Camp Crook, and Joseph Reedy,
Chadron, Neb.; his mother, Emilie
Reedy, Philip; two sisters, Mary
Kay Sandal and Joann (Lester)
Pearson of Philip; one brother,
Mike, of Colorado; and eight
grandchildren, Tori, Brit, Peter,
Josie, Emilie, Mathew, Bailey and
Cooper.
He was preceded in death by his
father, John, and two brothers,
Richard and Joseph Reedy.
Robbie was a wonderful hus-
band, father and friend. He will be
greatly missed.

Ive worked as a waiter. I can
carry full cups of coffee around at
a goodly rate of speed without
spilling them. Well, er, usually I
can. Sometimes I may slop a little
if I try to go through a door while
carrying something in addition to
the coffee. Going through both the
front door and the screen door can
be problematic as well. Still, I have
fairly good liquid-carrying skills.
As you go through life, if you
dont watch out, youre apt to gain
skills at this and that (like coffee-
carrying) from jobs or experiences
you happen to have. Take cooking,
for example. Ive always cooked
some so as to avoid starvation
when left to my own devices. I
learned quite a bit more about it,
though, when I took up trying to
feed the wife, son and some ranch
guys in addition to myself. As it
happened, we decided many years
ago to home-school son Chance,
and wife Corinne wasnt sure she
could both teach and cook. The
cooking was known to take quite a
bit of time, especially on those
days the men came for dinner
which they did fairly often. As a re-
sult, I volunteered for kitchen
duty. This was fine, but I had to
stretch my meager skills some-
what to avoid serving the same
fare every day and also to accom-
modate some food sensitivities
plus likes and dislikes. I basically
can and do eat almost everything
without much trouble, but this
doesnt hold true for everyone.
Anyway, through doing it, I
learned to cook a varied menu.
Whats more, I tend to get carried
away with any project I take on so
I learned a lot more than strictly
necessary through my fondness for
experimentation. Some experi-
ments came out nicely and others
not so much. Scones were not a
major success. Even the dog
wouldnt eat them. He buried them
instead. Tacos, on the other hand,
turned out well including making
the shells from scratch. We have
eaten a lot of those.
I have also invented various
menu items and desserts although
often from goofing up and trying to
correct matters. Take the chocolate
cherry meringue cake I came up
with through accidentally adding
too much sugar when trying to
make an angel-food cake. After
cogitating over that mistake a bit,
I decided to add some cocoa and
chopped cherries and see what
happened. It turned out very well
indeed, and I still make it from
time to time. I had to call it a
meringue cake because adding too
much sugar to egg whites gives
you meringue, not angel food, but
thats no big deal.
The other day, though, I messed
up making that cake by setting the
oven to 275 degrees instead of 325.
I didnt notice the error until after
Id taken the pan out and turned it
upside down to cool. The cake then
fell out of the tin so something was
obviously wrongnamely it was
badly undercooked. Taking a hint
from how you warm up French
bread (according to the bread
wrapper,) I cranked the oven up to
400 degrees and threw the confec-
tion back in the oven for ten min-
utes although I wasnt at all sure
how that would come out. Luckily
it worked, and the cake was saved.
Alas, the learning curve is
somewhat bent in areas where you
may have experience but little ap-
titude. Electrical, plumbing, and
mechanical matters pop to mind.
Ive had to do some of all of those
through necessity, but Im not a
fast learner. Basic stuff I can do
through hard work and sweat, but,
if things get complicated, I call for
help. Carpentry is a little easier
but still not my best suit.
Then, too, if you live long
enough, some of the things youve
learned become obsolete. Take car
engines, for example. I know a lit-
tle about carburetors but nothing
about fuel injection. Electrical sys-
tems on modern cars are com-
pletely beyond me. You have to
have complicated electronic gear to
figure out what is wrong, and Im
not really interested in learning
that. Similarly, through great ef-
fort, I learned to develop photo-
graphic film and make both color
and black-and-white prints from
negatives. Now, thanks to the dig-
ital revolution, you can barely buy
film anymore. Thats okay, how-
ever. I dont miss all those smelly
chemicals and the tedium involved
with using them. Digital cameras
are great and computer printing
just fine.
At the moment, though, I am a
little short on my coffee consump-
tion for the day. Id better correct
that and maybe take some black
liquid out onto the deck to drink.
That is not a problem. Im pretty
good at carrying coffee around.
Maybe, too, Ill take my digital
camera along and try to capture
the sunset, which seems to be
shaping up nicely. Life goes on.
Live and learn.
(By the way, opinions vary.
Corinne has a lower opinion of my
coffee-carrying skills than I do.
Something about spots on the
floor.)

Lookin Around

John and Jo Rodgers have pur-
chased the Belvidere Store. They
hope to reopen it after the first of
the year and offer gas and some
groceries. They are working to get
things organized and set up. On
Sunday, Jo and Jory attended St.
Peter Lutheran Church north of
old Stamford and then stayed on
for Jory to attend confirmation
classes. Jo continues to float some
with her post office work and
worked a couple days in Belvidere
last week. Jory hurt his elbow so is
sidelined at the moment from
wrestling. He hopes to be back at it
later this week. John said the Na-
tional Final Rodeo starts on Thurs-
day, and they are planning to have
that on the TV at JRs since a lot of
local folks like to keep close tabs on
that.
Mary Johnston helped with re-
lease time on Wednesday in
Kadoka. After that, she picked up
nursing home and the two went for
pie and coffee at Jiggers. The bank
sends a gift certificate to each of
them on their birthdays every year
for pie and coffee, so, for many
years, Kate and Mary have saved
their certificates until they can go
out together to redeem them. After
having a good visit at the caf, Kate
accompanied Mary to the grocery
store and found a few more people
to visit with there.
Glenn Freeman is just starting
to get recovered from knee-replace-
ment surgery earlier this year only
to find out his other knee needs
work. That one was replaced in the
mid-nineties, but an examination
showed something is coming loose
and needs repair. Glenn has some
of these medical exams and work
done through the VA.
Sarah DeVries of Rapid City vis-
ited her dad, Tom DeVries, in
Belvidere this weekend. On Satur-
day, the two attended the Christ-
mas musical in Kadoka, in part
because sister/daughter, Trisha
Bork, was accompanying that pro-
duction which lasted about an hour
and a half. It was apparently an
enjoyable performance. On Sunday,
they walked across the street for
church. Sarah does freelance writ-
ing in Rapid City which gives her
some flexibility as to time so she
can go places when she wants to.
Tojo Osborn has been spending
some time at Ocoma where he has
been helping Roland Hickey with
his well-drilling business. Since
Tojo is no longer tied to any one
business, he has been traveling
here and there staying with family
and visiting whenever he feels like
it. On Sunday, he was clearing
some of his things out of the
Belvidere Store since that has now
been sold to John and Jo Rodgers.
Nikki Bonenberger and kids,
MaKaylan and McCoy, drove to
Sioux Falls/Brandon on Friday.
They attended a basketball game
in which Nikkis nephew, her sis-
ters son, took part. They also
watched a niece (Bretts sisters
daughter) doing some gymnastics,
cheerleading and dancing routines.
The kids had quite a good time al-
though it tired them out and they
were napping some on Sunday. The
Bonenbergers acquired a pet goose
named Goose-Goose recently from
a friend in Kadoka. This seems to
be a friendly fowl that the kids
enjoy. It hangs out with the ducks
but not so much with the chickens.
Nikki said they have enough chick-
ens to supply their own needs plus
a bit more. She made some pickled
eggs this week to use up some ex-
cess eggs. Nikki also mentioned
that they still have some goldfish
in their stock tanks although they
thought they didnt for a while.
They just can sometimes be hard to
see.
Frank Carlson and Toni Romero
plus kids, Sage and Stetson, drove
to Nisland on Saturday to visit
Franks brother, Jesse, and family.
They got in quite a bit of roping
practice while they were there. On
the way home on Sunday, Frank
said the temperatures were a little
scary for December since they were
still about 65 degrees at 5:00 p.m.
He said he was enjoying the pleas-
ant weather but just found it un-
usual for this time of year.
Charlene Ceniceros and her
granddaughter, Charlene Romero,
with her husband, Daryl, and kids
went to Pierre the day before
Thanksgiving. They did some shop-
ping and eating. Thanksgiving was
enjoyed at home and was cooked by
the younger Charlene. Randy Pe-
ters and Tommy Anderson came
over to enjoy the meal with them.
Bunny Green continues to stay
with her granddaughter in Ft.
Pierre for now. According to Wally
Wells, she will celebrate her 93rd
birthday on Wednesday. Her ad-
dress is PO Box 81, Ft. Pierre, SD
57532.
There is no greater treasure
than a good friend.
Congratulations to Rebekkah
Kary who recently was among four
youth who represented Kadoka
Area High School at the Augustana
Band Festival held in Sioux Falls.
Rebeckkah was a member of the
gold band conducted by Dr. Paul
Schilf of Augustana College. Stu-
dents from North Dakota, Min-
nesota, Iowa, Nebraska and South
Dakota took part in the concert.
Rebeckkah is the daughter of Ace
and Edna Kary and the grand-
daughter of Jean Kary all of Nor-
ris.
Monday, Andrea Beckwith vis-
ited a bit with Maxine Allard.
June Ring and her son, Bruce
Ring, attended the memorial serv-
ices held for Pastor Bob Utecht in
Spearfish on Wednesday. Pastor
Bob was known best for his
Lutheran Puppet Place at the
South Dakota State Fair. He was a
firm believer that the Bible and
cookies should be given together.
Children of all ages loved him for
doing it too. May the Lord bless the
memory of Pastor Bob Utecht. Pas-
tor Bob Utecht is the father of Rev.
Andrew Utecht of Valentine, NE.
Dan Taft and Morgan helped
the Karys work cattle on Friday.
Friday evening, Marty and Sue
Larson of Rapid City and Julie
Letellier of Kilgore arrived at the
James Letellier home. Saturday
morning the group headed for the
annual benefit auction held at Sun-
shine Bible Academy near Miller.
Marty, Sue and Julie stopped at
the wrestling tourney held in Kim-
ball to cheer on their nephew, DJ
Beckwith, before coming on to the
auction. It is the biggest fundraiser
for the school and the Letelliers en-
joyed having all four of their girls
and families there. It is a real fun
time.
Dan and Susan Taft conducted
business in Martin on Saturday
and visited in the home of her par-
ents, Alvin and Judy Simmons.
School News:
Parent/Teacher conferences
were held last Wednesday.
On Monday the final class for
the DARE program was held, so
graduation will be held soon for the
students involved. DARE is the
Drug Abuse Resistance Education
program used in the schools.
The students are practicing for
the Christmas program which is
slated for December 13 at 2:00 p.m.
Everyone is invited to attend- come
and enjoy the afternoon.

June Ring was among the many
relatives and friends helping
Braedan Huber celebrate his sev-
enth birthday on Saturday. The
birthday party was held at his
home and hosted by his parents,
David and Nicole Huber.
The children have started prac-
ticing on Sunday for the Christmas
Eve program to be held at St. John
Lutheran Church. The Ladies Aid
Lutheran Womens Missionary
League Christmas Tea will be held
at St. John Lutheran Church base-
ment on this Thursday, December
6. Singing, games, devotions and
tasting tea are planned for the day.
Come and start the Christmas sea-
son.
Sunday afternoon the Norris
Township Hall was the scene of a
Wopila (Thankful) dinner. The big
community feast was hosted by the
Oleta and Rodney Mednansky fam-
ily, Justin and Dena Mednansky
family, Richard Mednansky family,
John and Kris WoodenKnife family,
Leland and Iris Bear Heels family
and Verdell and Keith Horse Look-
ing family. The dinner was given to
show appreciation and thanks to
God for the many blessings they
enjoyed the past year.
The kids Bible Club will con-
tinue to meet at the Blackpipe
Community Building on Thursday
after school. Ken and Karen Toews
with American Missionary Fellow-
ship plan a lesson, craft, games and
treats each week. Everyone is wel-
come to come.
Susan Taft and Morgan went to
Philip on Sunday and enjoyed tak-
ing in the Marie Hansen sale. It
was a wonderful sale for collectors
of everything from dolls to dishes.
Everything exciting is happen-
ing at once around here. December
not only means Christmas is just
around the corner, but theres pro-
grams, teas, reunions, craft shows,
etc. and all that goes with it. It also
means the beginning of basketball
season. We have open gym here in
Norris on the weekends. The guys
are working hard to be ready to de-
fend their 2012 State Champi-
onship title for White River. We,
the cheering crowd, can hardly
wait for the games to begin. Our
guys proved they are true athletes
by just completing a terrific football
season, too. They work real hard at
any game they play, but basketball
is not just a game here, it is a way
of life. We love it!
It is a real thrill to welcome Tim
and Tammy Merchen to the coun-
try. The Merchens have just moved
into the ranch house (where Tim
grew up), here at Norris over
Thanksgiving week. Young people
and their enthusiasm is what
keeps this country going. Anytime
a couple moves back home it is a
big step forward for our commu-
nity. Although, Tim, Tammy, Ty
and Taylor sold their home in
Kadoka to move to the ranch; the
kids will continue to attend
Kadoka Area High School and
Tammy is at the Main Street Salon
on Wednesday, Thursday and Fri-
day. It is so exciting to be able to
say; Ty and Taylor are the fourth
generation of Merchens to call Nor-
ris home.
Harry and Jeanne Merchen vis-
ited at the ranch last weekend to
see the changes that have been
made to the house, painting, etc.
The Merchens plan to leave on
Monday for Arizona for the winter.
house! or I bought a car! She
speaks of her family very fondly.
Dorothys dad and brother decided
to build the very first housetop
Christmas decoration in Water-
town, which had reindeer and as
Dorothy says it, Santee Claus.
She said the people would drive by
car after car after car.
Also in history, Dorothy recalls
the end of World War I. They were
living in Moosejaw, Saskatchewan
and bells & whistles started to
blare out on the streets signifying
the war was over! People were
chanting, The war is over! The
war is over!
With only a few remaining rela-
tives, she and Stanley Beal, her
younger cousin, at the age of 92,
who lives in Minnesota still corre-
spond by mail.
Nearing the end of this inter-
view in her room at Jenkins Living
Center, Dorothy looked up and
said, Every morning, I wake up
and think Im still here!
The Century Club is a creation
of the South Dakota Health Care
Association and has recognized
over 1,000 South Dakotans since
its beginning in 1997. Century
Club sponsors created the Club to
recognize both the contributions
and the years of these special indi-
viduals. The Century Club is as its
name statesa Club. Therefore,
there may be older people in the
state that have not yet been in-
ducted by a family member or loved
one into the Century Club.
The Century Club is open to res-
idents of South Dakota upon the
celebration of his or her
100thbirthday. There are no dues
and every inductee receives a spe-
cially designed certificate and
membership card signed by spon-
sors. Once a year, the current old-
est living Century Club Member is
recognized as the Centenarian of
the Year. Submit names for the

LuAnn Severson, Century Club Co-
ordinator, at 1-800-952-3052.
The South Dakota Century Club
is honored to have just received an
application form Dorothy Antritter
of Watertown, age 108, which now
makes her the oldest resident in
the Club! After the recent an-
nouncement of Beryl Kapaun pass-
ing, who was the Century Clubs
oldest resident, friends stepped for-
ward and filed an application form
to induct Dorothy into the Club.
Dorothy, the daughter and last
surviving child of Charlie and
Louise (Pfefferle) Antritter, was
born November 25, 1904, in Round
Lake, Minnesota. Dorothys father
emigrated from Germany in 1885
when he was 8; her mother at the
age of 5. Dorothy remembers her
family singing German songs, some
of which Dorothy will still sing
when asked.
For six years, the Antritter Fam-
ily lived in Moose Jaw,
Saskatchewan. Dorothy said that
she had to take 2nd and 3rd grades
twice because the U.S. education
system was behind. But, she also
noted, that upon return to the
states, she skipped the eighth
grade! She says, I never took 8th
grade!
Dorothy was also on the Water-
town Arrow Basketball Team and
when asked if she was good she
replies, Well, I was the tallest and
wore a size 11 shoe! They only
played against classes in their
school, seniors against juniors.
Which meant she played against
her sister, Ruby, who was one year
older and passed away over a year
ago at 108. Remembering her
school days, Dorothy still recalls
the high school she attended being
across the street from where she
resides today.
Dorothy worked for Alan Austin
as a legal secretary for many, many
years and retired in 1967. In re-
sponse to how well she did her job.
Dorothy responded, I was good! I
was the highest paid secretary in
the office! My paycheck was
$50/month. When asked what she
did, I pounded the typewriter just
like any other secretary, but I had
to do shorthand first. She has
never used a computer but recalls
the first time she used an electric
typewriter - it scared her to death
because it went so fast and jumped
right out at her. Dorothy exclaims,
I walked to work, back and forth
from lunch and home again, ten
blocks one way! Do you think any-
one does that today?
Dorothys family was a very
close-knit unit. When a trip was to
be taken, they all went, Mom, Dad,
and all three kids. Sometimes they
were even gone for months at a
time. She has traveled to every
state with the exception of Hawaii
since she has never flown in her life
time. Looking off into the distance,
Dorothy said, I wish I could travel
again. You see a lot of things when
you travel by bus.
She recalls many occasions
where her dad would come home
one day and say, I bought a

has been great for everyone who is

tail operations in South Dakota.
But if you buy your iPod from Ama-
zon.com, you dont pay sales tax
simply because Amazon has no
warehouse or other physical loca-
tion in South Dakota.
Heres an even worse example:
A customer can walk into a South
Dakota business, browse the mer-
chandise, talk to the salesman,
then pull out his smartphone, scan
the barcode, and order the product
from an online retailer while
standing in the store!
Like most South Dakotans, I do
not support raising tax rates. How-
ever, I do support equity and uni-
formity among those who make
sales to South Dakotans. If South
Dakota retailers have to pay sales
taxes, their competitors online
should as well. This is not a new
tax it is asking online retailers to
pay the tax that is already legally
due on these sales.
We should be constantly striving
to add more taxpayers, not adding
more taxes or increasing tax rates.
Whether by adding online retailers
to the tax rolls, encouraging busi-
ness growth or getting unemployed
folks back to work, we should strive
to achieve a broad, stable tax base.
Online shopping has given every
South Dakotan access to more
goods and services than ever be-
fore, if they are willing to pay for
shipping. There is nothing wrong
with this. We should not, however,
disadvantage our local retailers or
our state budget by allowing out-of-
state online businesses to avoid
paying sales tax.
We need Congress to act, and I
support Congressional efforts to
simplify and standardize remit-
tance of sales taxes collected from
online purchases. It creates an
even playing field for our local busi-
nesses and increases tax revenues
the right way- by adding more tax-
payers, not more taxes or higher
rates.
The days following Thanksgiv-
ing are widely known for launching
the Christmas shopping season, as
retailer specials draw crowds of
shoppers. The shopping days have
become so ingrained in our Ameri-
can culture they have earned their
own nicknames: Black Friday,
Small Business Saturday, and
Cyber Monday.
Cyber Monday (November 26)
was the date on which online re-
tailers offered large discounts and
dramatically boosted their sales.
Each year, Cyber Monday sets a
new record for money spent online
in a single day. This year was no
different, with some analysts esti-
mating more than $1.5 billion dol-
lars spent during the 24-hour
period. I expect the trend held true
in South Dakota as well. The 2012
Cyber Monday gift-buying binge
also likely broke another record:
most purchases made in South
Dakota without paying sales tax.
Currently, only businesses with
a substantial nexus or physical
presence in South Dakota must col-
lect sales tax on goods purchased
online. Out-of-state retailers, who
are not physically located in South
Dakota, have no such obligation.
The current system doesnt make
sense, and it even discriminates
among online purchases. If you buy
a new iPod at your local retailer,
you pay the sales tax. If you buy it
online at BestBuy.com or Wal-
Mart.com, you pay the sales tax,
because those businesses have re-
More taxpayers, NOT more taxes

Online Shopping Tips:
Consumers using the internet to
find the perfect gift should avoid
using email links. These links can
appear to be from a known busi-
ness, when in fact they are coming
from a different company alto-
gether.
Use credit cards for online pur-
chases. If there is a problem with
the purchase it is much easier to
dispute the charges.
Be leery of businesses who are
offering deep discounts. If it sounds
too good to true, then it likely is, so
shop with reputable sellers.
If you have any additional ques-
tions, contact the Attorney Gen-
erals Consumer Protection Office
at 1-800-300-1986 or consumer-
help@state.sd.us.

and surrender the entire carcasses
within five days of harvest to GFP
personnel for registration and tag-
ging. Once the season is closed, an
individual has 24 hours to notify
GFP personnel of any untagged
bobcats harvested during the sea-
son. No person may possess, pur-
chase, or sell raw bobcat pelts that
are not legally tagged.
GFP, in conjunction with South
Dakota State University, is con-
ducting research on bobcat car-
casses to obtain important
population and biological informa-
tion.
GFP is researching bobcats in
several areas of South Dakota,
said Wildlife Damage Program Ad-
ministrator Keith Fisk. Well be
evaluating reproduction, body con-
dition, and stomach content of all
harvested bobcats. As a result, car-
casses minus the lower jaw --
may not be returned to hunters or
trappers for several months.
The evaluation project is ex-
pected to last the entire season.
This information is necessary
for managing bobcats and will as-
sist us in future management di-
rection in South Dakota, Fisk
said.
For more information on the
complete set of rules associated
with trapping and shooting bob-
cats, visit the GFP website
http://gfp.sd.gov/hunting/trap-
ping/default.aspx or contact a local
wildlife conservation officer,
wildlife damage specialist, or GFP
Division of Wildlife office.
With the 2012-13 bobcat season
beginning on Dec. 8, Game, Fish
and Parks officials remind hunters
and trappers of several new re-
quirements and opportunities.
The first-ever bobcat season east
of the Missouri River will run from
Dec. 8 through Dec. 30. Only the
counties of Buffalo, Brule, Charles
Mix, Bon Homme, and Yankton are
open. Hunters and trappers are re-
stricted to one bobcat per person in
those open counties.
The bobcat season in all counties
west of the Missouri River will
open Dec. 8, 2012, and close on Feb.
15, 2013. There is no limit on bob-
cats in West River counties. A
South Dakota Furbearer License is
required to hunt or trap bobcats
and all bobcats must be checked
and tagged by GFP personnel.
All hunters and trappers who
take bobcats are required to re-
move the pelts from the carcasses

Healthier Holiday Eating
There are many temptations re-
lated to the holidays including
overspending, overscheduling our
time and unfortunately, overeat-
ing. Consuming too much sugar,
fat and calories can happen effort-
lessly during the last two months
of the year. It begins with consum-
ing Halloween candy and finishes
with eggnog and fruitcake.
Studies show an average weight
gain during the holidays of about
1 pound. Studies also show that
people who are already overweight
are more likely to gain five pounds
or more during the holidays. It is
possible to avoid adding extra
pounds during the holiday season.
You can enjoy special holiday foods
without gaining the traditional
holiday weight by making some
simple changes.
Balance what you eat with phys-
ical activity to avoid gaining
weight. You will gain weight if you
eat more calories than you burn.
Physical activity helps boost your
energy level so you can be more
productive during the holidays. It
also helps you to obtain a better
quality of sleep and releases emo-
tional tension. One hour of walk-
ing at a moderate pace can burn
about 225 calories. Consider doing
some type of aerobic exercise every
day to get your metabolism going
and elevated for up to 24 hours.
Holiday stress leaves many of us
reaching for our favorite home-
made goodies. Chemical reactions
take place when we are stressed
that cause us to want to eat. The
result is a temporary feeling of
comfort and joy that makes us
want to eat more. Another item
that is also consumed during
stressful times is caffeine. It pro-
vides short term energy, but too
much may prevent good sleep and
without proper rest its hard to ac-
complish everything we need to
and the stress continues.
Here are some helpful tips for
eating sensibly at holiday parties
and gatherings. Never go to a
party hungry. Stick to a regular
eating schedule. Skipping meals
lowers blood sugar levels and
causes you to overeat the rest of
the day to make up for missed
calories. Take your own low-calo-
rie food to the party to replace
high-fat items like cheese and
crackers. Good choices include
bite-size fruit or veggies and a low-
calorie dip. Use a small plate so
that it looks full. Fill up on
healthy calories first. Fill half
your plate with fruit and vegeta-
bles, one quarter of your plate with
protein and one quarter with car-
bohydrates. Choose complex carbo-
hydrates such as whole grains,
whole-wheat pasta, oatmeal,
legumes and sweet potatoes.
They help you maintain a steady
metabolism without the highs and
lows of blood sugar swings. Be-
fore going back for seconds, wait
20 minutesit takes that long for
your stomach to tell your brain
that youre full.
Dont drink your calories. Con-
sume alcohol in moderation and
keep in mind that it can increase
your appetite. Eggnog is a holiday
favorite but a non-alcoholic, 8-
ounce serving made with whole
milk has 342 calories and 19
grams of fat. Add alcohol to the
eggnog and the calories increase to
nearly 450 calories.
Modify the recipes of some of
your favorite holiday foods to re-
duce the fat, sugar and salt and
add fiber. Generally the total fat in
recipes can be reduced by one-
third. For recipes such as brown-
ies, cakes and baked breads that
call for 1 cup of oil, you can replace
1/2 cup of the oil with 1/2 cup of
unsweetened applesauce.
How many calories do you think
you consume by taking only a few
tastes through the day? Here are a
few examples: Cant pass up the
eggnog so you decide to have only
a 1/2 of a cup (4 ounces)? That
equals 200 calories. Cant pass up
the candy tray at church and de-

Condition of the Winter
Wheat Crop
The fall of 2012 has been a chal-
lenge for South Dakotas winter
wheat producers as they faced very
dry soil conditions to plant into.
During the week of November 25,
2012, 64 percent of winter wheat
in South Dakota was rated in poor
or very poor condition. This rating
was the worst of any state in the
primary winter wheat growing re-
gion.
The quick development of se-
vere to exceptional drought, ac-
cording to the U.S. Drought
M o n i t o r
(http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/),
has affected much of the wheat
producing areas of the US. The
winter wheat crop conditions in
the central US has affected the na-
tional rating, which is now at its
lowest level since records of this
type began in 1986.
The South Dakota Weekly Crop
Weather Report, published by the
National Agricultural Statistics
Service puts the hard red winter
wheat of South Dakota at 60 per-
cent emerged as of 25 November.
Other states have significantly
better ratings, both in condition
and percent emerged. Some people
believe the report of 60 percent of
winter wheat emerged seems high.
The NASS crop progress estimates
are based on a subjective opinion
survey of county officials, which
are not claimed to be statistically
accurate. The important fact is
that even if the figure is high, 60%
is the lowest percent of winter
wheat emerged by late November
in South Dakota since at least
1990. One other fall that stands
out with a low percentage of win-
ter wheat emergence in South
Dakota was 2000, when 74% of the
crop was reported emerged in No-
vember. The statewide average
yield in 2001 was 32 Bu/acre,
which tied for the 2nd and 3rd low-
est yield since 1990. It is not advis-
able to make yield predictions for
the 2013 cropping season based on
this however.
Many areas where winter
wheat was planted into dry soil
have received small amounts of
moisture via rain and/or snow.
This limited moisture has caused
some of the wheat to sprout, but
little has actually emerged to a sig-
nificant degree. These seedlings
have used energy reserves from
the seed, and have not been able to
generate photosynthetic activity
and develop crowns to store energy
for winter survival. Without addi-
tional moisture, the sprouted
seedlings may dry out and die.
Dry soil cools off more quickly
and will get colder than soil with
adequate moisture, if low air tem-
peratures occur without snow for
insulation. This potential exposure
to low temperatures could con-
tribute to significant winterkill for
a crop in marginal condition. Mois-
ture in the form of either rain or
snow would improve the condition
of the crop and chances for its sur-
vival. However prospects for mois-
ture dont look good.
Producers may want to wait be-
fore making decisions such as fer-
tilizing until they have a better
handle on the potential of the crop.
As spring approaches, winter
wheat growers will want to assess
the condition of the crop. If the
crop is insured, producers should
contact their crop insurance agent

before taking steps to terminate
the crop and initiate alternative
plans.
The good news is that if the crop
survives, it is almost certain that
the plants will vernalize and pro-
duce a seed head. All that is neces-
sary for the winter wheat plants to
vernalize is for the kernel to take
on moisture and swell, and go
through a period of about 3 weeks
at about 40 degrees or lower. It is
almost unheard of for winter wheat
planted in the fall in South Dakota
to not complete that process. It is
well known among producers that
wheat, particularly winter wheat,
is a tough crop and can surprise
you with its resiliency.

The South Dakota Game, Fish
and Parks Commission has pro-
posed a slight reduction in licenses
for the 2013 Spring Prairie Turkey
Season.
The commission has recom-
mended a reduction in one-tag
male turkey licenses by 105 and
reduce the two-tag any turkey li-
censes by 200 compared to 2012.
The commission also is propos-
ing 10 resident archery turkey li-
censees for the Blood Run Nature
Area and 10 resident archery li-
censees to hunt at the Adams
Homestead and Nature Preserve
through the issuance of access per-
mits via a lottery drawing.
A modification of the spring unit
boundaries for the Black Hills and
49A to be consistent with the fall
turkey unit boundaries was also
proposed.
The proposals will be finalized
at the Dec. 6-7 GFP meeting at the
Pierre Ramkota.
To comment, email
wild.info@state.sd.us with your
name and city. You can also com-
ment in person at the December
meeting. Proposals will begin at 2
p.m., CST on Thursday, Dec. 6.
