Meeting about SET planned in Kadoka 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. “I’ve logged over four million miles, and I’ve wore them out,” he laughed. When asked about all those miles of log books … well that’s 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 didn’t 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 he’s never shot an antelope, but maybe some- day. And he’s 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 I’ve been through, I’m 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. Kadoka Nursing Home Resident of the Month ~Stewart Marty, of Hot Springs, was elected to a four-year term to represent District V. He will re- place Harold Wyatt, who did not seek re-election. ~Jeff Nielsen, of Canistota, who ran unopposed for a four-year term to represent District IX. Board President Rod Renner began the day’s presentations by speaking to the crowd about the commitment of Golden West em- ployees and board members. He summarized Golden West’s 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 Wyatt’s 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- sion’s (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. The Itty Bitty Opry Band of Rapid City entertained the crowd with a variety of 1950’s songs, Larry Cohen of Martin won the $500 grand prize drawing. Next year’s Golden West annual meeting will be held on September 28, 2013. More than 400 members at- tended the 60th annual meeting of the Golden West Telecommunica- tions Cooperative at the Wall Com- munity Center on Saturday, September 22nd.

Church Calendar

1 John 4:4-6Scripture 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 thenof 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 kernelsfrom 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 oftrial, 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 makeSatan feel threatened? If not, you don't need a major attack for your faith to suffer greatly. Instead ofbeing alert and recognizing the battle at stake, you will be lulled into uselessness like a frog in waterheating 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 becauseyou have just the right knowledge, story, or temperament to reach them. And when you do, you reclaimstolen territory for His kingdom. You may think you're not important, but the Lord knows your true value. As His beloved child andfriend, you have an important part in His plan for eternity. Satan fears you when you recognize thistruth. Fight back and rely on God's Spirit--greater is He who is within you!

Are You a Threat to Satan?

Kate Dennis brought Dorothy totheir home north of Midland whenshe was five days old and she con-tinued to live with them, attendingLiberty Country School for fiveyears. She then moved to Midlandwhere Tom and Lillian, her step-mother, were living and attendedschool there for one year while Lil-lian was teaching in the Midlandschool. The family moved to theTom Dennis farm-ranch andDorothy attended Prairie QueenSchool for two years. Then Lilliantaught the Twin Buttes School eastof home and she, Dorothy, and acousin, Olivia Dennis (now Per-ovich), lived at the school duringthe week and went home on week-ends while Dorothy was in eighthand ninth grades. She then at-tended high school in Midland, liv-ing in the girls’ dormitory, justnorth of present day Open Bibleparsonage. She worked at the co-opgrocery store during high schoolyears. She graduated from MidlandHigh School in 1942 and went towork at a chicken farm near Rapid

The prairie is currently givingits last “Hurrah!” before winter,and it’s putting on quite a niceshow. The cottonwoods along theriver, anyway, catch your eye witha good assortment of yellows andoranges. The trees in the drawsand creeks have more variety sincethere are more kinds of trees therethan along the river. Elm trees, ofcourse, have no sense of time. Theyseldom turn a pretty color. Theyinstead prefer to wait until a hardfrost turns the leaves brown afterwhich they slowly drop them. Ashtrees, though, like to adorn them-selves with bright yellow beforegoing naked over a short span oftime and settling in for dormancy. Some of my favorite fall foliageis on those trees and plants thatturn red. We don’t have many ac-tual trees which do that, and Ithink you may have to go to NewEngland or some other remoteplace to see a lot of it. We do, how-ever, have ivy that climbs treesand whatnot and turns a brilliantred in the fall. It does that quiteearly in the season and seems to bea red-flag signal for all the otherplants that winter is coming andit’s time to get ready. There aresome smaller shrubs in the drawsthat also turn red although most ofthose have a rusty hew and not thescarlet or flat-out red. I am notmuch of an authority on brushyplants that don’t produce ediblefruit, but my dad used to call someof them skunkberries. I have noidea if that is a proper name forthose short bushes, but that’s whatI call them. They have berries,sure enough, but you’d have to benutty to sample them. Wild crit-ters don’t eat them which givesyou some idea of their worth asfood. The late-season prairie flowersare also hanging in there althoughthey are somewhat stunted in thisdry old year. I notice sunflowers, ofcourse, that haven’t quite given itup yet, but yellow gumweeds giveno indication that they are in anyway lacking moisture. Looking atthem might give you the idea thatwe’ve had recent rains. Wehaven’t, but you wouldn’t know itby inspecting gumweeds. I espe-cially noticed how they line thehighways the other day after beesstarted smashing against mywindshield. I had seen the hives bythe road and wondered where onearth the bees were finding any-thing to interest them. I scanned

the prairie and saw nothing butbrown. There certainly was noclover or alfalfa that was stillgreen. Then I saw the gumweedsall along the road. “Ah,” I thought.“That’s where the bees are going.”According to beekeeper friend,Chris, gumweeds do not makeideal honey, but I suppose they doprovide good enough food for thebees themselves which can’t be allbad. The other normal fall flowersare around too. There are thoseclumps of white posies which I callasters although I’m not sure thatis accurate. Most of them arestunted but still trying. The gold-enrod seems particularly brilliantthis year. I was stomping down adraw the other day to get rid of acouple of pails of stuff I’d cleanedout of the freezer above the refrig-erator. That contraption had quitworking properly and thawedeverything out. Most of it shouldhave been tossed a while ago, butyou know how that goes withfreezers. Still, although it didn’tsmell bad, I no longer trusted itand 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 I’d had to make thedisposal run down the draw so Ididn’t miss that flower patch. I did-n’t stop to smell them since they’vebeen known to make peoplesneeze, but they were nice to lookat. Then we come to yucca plants.They, too, show no signs ofdrought. They are about the onlygreen dotting the landscape, and,since we have tons of them on thehills of our rolling ranch, they dogive you hope. Yuccas, in fact, seemto do better in dry years than wet.They flourish. They even flowermore heavily in dry springs thanwet. I guess you have to be a cac-tus to enjoy drought. So, the prairie is telling us thatwinter cometh. I suppose I’d betterget ready. Shoot! That can wait abit. Instead, I think I’ll go down tothe creek or spring and find me alog to sit on under the canopy ofcolorful leaves. There I’ll just enjoymy golden world and bask in itsbrilliance. There’s no point in wor-rying when you can instead sur-render yourself to beauty. Postscript: Got some rain onSunday. Nice!

Last Hurrah

Lookin’ Aroundby Syd Iwan

Tom DeVries is a new resident ofBelvidere since he recently pur-chased the house owned by JeffWillert which is across the streetnortheast of the church. Tom is con-centrating on dirt work recentlywith a new machine he recentlybought. He has been working eastand south of town either repairingstock dams or cleaning out anddeepening dry ones. He alsobrought his team of horses to townand several horse-drawn con-veyances including a fairly fancyone he built during the last yearand has used some already. At hisplace north of old Stamford, close tothe St. Peter Lutheran Church, hisdaughter, Trisha Bork, and herhusband, Landon, will be movingthere soon. Tom said he really en-joys dirt work and has now pur-chased enough equipment that hecan accurately figure the correctheight for dam grades and so on. Ituses some laser technology andseems fairly accurate and easy touse. You may recall that the houseTom just moved into was owned byCharles Willert before Jeff had it.Others having lived there includeSam and Lydia Manke way back,Merle and Florence Rittel and DickVosberg. Jeff Willert, meanwhile, ispreparing to move to his place justwest of town which was formerlyowned by Charlie Brunson. He isawaiting the arrival of a new mo-bile home in mid October. Marj and Marvin Street areback in town for a couple of weeksin their house just east of the watertower. Marj, as usual, helped playfor church on Sunday. During theweek, the Streets in company withMarj’s brother, Gary, and sisters,Keitha, Elaine and Crystal, didsome work at the home of theirmom, Dolores Obr. New kitchencupboards were installed, as was anew water heater. Painting wasalso done. Of those here, Streetsmostly live at Cook, MN, Keitha atAlpena and Gary and Elaine atRapid City. Crystal Paulson is theonly full-time local one. Wade Fox and his sorrel horse,Snort, were running across theprairie this week when Snortdropped both front legs into a hole.This stopped the proceedings fairlyabruptly and catapulted Wade farenough away that he wasn’tsquished by a falling horse. Neither

Wade nor Snort suffered any majorinjury, but Wade had a little painfor a while in his shoulder andknee. Snort seemed unconcernedand spent time nibbling grasswhile Wade got himself togetherand remounted. The two, then, con-tinued on their journey. Clair Bitting consulted doctorsabout his heart at the VA in Sturgison Saturday. His daughter, KoletteStruble, served as chauffeur.

Bunny had plenty of visi-tors including her son, Vernie, andhis wife, Deb, of Black Hawk.Gary’s son, Timmy, was a visitorfrom Colorado, and Pierre grand-kids, David Wiedemer and RuthAnn Springer, were there alongwith son-in-law, Charles. EvenBunny’s dog came to see her.Bunny is doing better now al-though still coughing. On Sunday,she was making plans to be backhome just as soon as possible. Betty Kusick said the dams nolonger smell very good so she hasgiven up fishing at the moment.She figured fish wouldn’t taste verygood right now due to the conditionof the water. Mark and Nicci DeVries andsons have been either playing in orattending quite a few footballgames lately. Gavin played in agame at Philip on Saturday. Son

Geoffrey was playing football thatday as well at a “Jamboree” inWall. On Sunday, Mark, Geoffreyand Greyson all attended the sur-plus auction held at the Kadokaschool. All three came home with alaptop computer. Nicci said thecomputers were a little old, butwould still work fine for games andother things. For the second yearnow, Nicci is serving as a special-edaide under Mrs. Smiley at theKadoka School. Mark, in fact, is theonly family member who isn’t ei-

ther in school or teaching, but he iscoaching the junior high footballteam. Various hunting seasons arenow open including grouse, dove,and archery antelope. As a result,Syd Iwan’s nephew, Scott Jones,came from Huron with his friend,“Minnesota Mike” and spent aweek hunting and fishing at theranch. They left on Friday only tobe replaced by Shon Ford of Millerand a friend of his who took upwhere Scott and Mike left off.

Thursday, September 27 theKadoka Lady Kougars traveled toMartin. Bennett County defeatedKadoka 25-14, 21-25, 25-23, 25-18 Raven Jorgensen, Kwincy Fer-guson and Marti Herber each had8 service points. Marti Herber had12 kills and Raven Jorgensen had8. Taylor Merchen and Tessa Stouteach had 10 set assists. Taylor andTessa also combined for 12 digs inthe backrow. We got off to a slow start in thefirst set and just couldn't recover;but then we were able to take thesecond set playing well. The thirdset was a bit of a heart-breaker; webattled back from a 10 point deficitto 23-24 with us serving andmissed a serve to lose the set. Iknew whoever won that third setwas likely to win the match be-cause it is a letdown for any teamto lose a big lead or come back froma big lead and then lose. BennettCounty played well; their defensewas very strong, they hit every-thing, and served with power andconsistency. We didn't play toobadly but just simply had difficul-ties adjusting to their deep spikingand their strong defense. Bennett County JV defeatedKadoka JV 2-0 that same evening. Bennett County played a stongmatch against us. They played verygood defense, and we made toomany mistakes to stay competitivein the match. Although, we did stayin system and controlled the ballfairly well. Tori Letellier had some

nice kills and Destiny Dale playedstrong defense in the backrow. AllieRomero 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 defeatedKadoka 25-17, 25-14 The tournamet started with avery exciting win against a strongHulett team. Raven Jorgensen andMarti Herber combined for 30/30serving with 18 points and 5 aces.Shaley Herber had 13 kills and 1block. Taylor Merchen had 10 setassists. This was a battle back andforth with many lead changes, andthe girls really had to dig deep topull the win out in the third set.This was a match that tested ourtoughness, and the girls stepped upand made it happen. We then played the Lead-Dead-wood JV. As a team we 49/50 with7 aces and 36 service points.Kwincy, Raven and Shaley eachhad 6 kills, and Tessa and Taylorcombined for 10 set assists. Thiswas a good match for us eventhough is was Lead-Deadwood's JV.We controlled the ball and adustedto a different stylo of play. We won pool C going 2-0. Nowwe had to face Harding County inthe champoinship bracket. Eightteams were advanced to the cham-pionship bracket. We new we had agood shot at Harding County;Hulett had beaten them a fewweeks prior, and we had playedHarding County close in the PhilipTournament. But, we just didn'tplay well. We looked a little slow onthe court, maybe due to sitting forabout an hour and a half waiting toplay. Harding County would even-tually win the tournament so thatmade us feel a bit better. Kwincyserved 7/7 with 3 service points,Raven had 6 kills and 4 digs, andTaylor had 5 set assists. Overall, we had to be satistfiedwith coming out of the tournamentwith a winning record and winninga really tight match against a qual-ity team like Hulett.

ObamaCare, which was signedinto law in March of 2010, waspitched to the American people asa way to lower the cost of healthcare. Throughout the 2008 electioncycle, candidate Obama repeatedlyclaimed that his health care billwould cut premiums by an averageof $2,500 per family. Unfortunately,while the president got his healthcare bill, the American people didnot get lower premiums, and in-stead the “Affordable” Care Act hasincreased the cost of premiums byover 14 percent since the presidentsigned the bill into law. The Kaiser Family Foundationrecently released the results of itsannual survey of employer-spon-sored health insurance premiums.According to the survey, premiumsfor the average family health insur-ance plan rose by $672 per familythis year, making the average costof health insurance for a family$3,000 higher now than it was in2008 under the previous adminis-tration. Increases in the price of healthinsurance premiums are not justimpacting the health insurancemarket. The high cost of premiumsare also stifling hiring decisionsamong businesses and taking awayfinancial resources that would nor-mally be invested in their busi-nesses. For example, the healthcare law contains a provision thatmandates employers include cer-tain government-determined “es-sential benefits” for anyemployer-sponsored health plan,leaving almost no flexibility for anemployer to determine what is bestfor his or her employees. Many of

these required benefits increasethe cost of the existing plans foremployers. Due to the increasedcost of the benefits, some small em-ployers may decide they are nolonger able to afford health insur-ance for their employees and willdrop coverage all together. Otherlarger employers may instead placea moratorium on hiring while theywait to determine how the cost ofincluding the “essential benefits” intheir health care plans impactstheir bottom line. As President Obama cam-paigned around the country in sup-port of his health care law in 2009he famously said, “If you like yourplan you can keep it.” Yet thehigher cost of premiums is alreadypreventing people who liked theirplan from keeping the coveragethey previously had, including in-dividuals who have Medicare Ad-vantage plans. According to theObama administration’s own esti-mate, nearly 80 percent of smallbusinesses will be forced to give uptheir current coverage by 2013. I strongly believe in ensuring ac-cess to high quality health care forall Americans. I also believe it isimportant to provide options andchoice in the marketplace, and toallow individuals, not the federalgovernment, to decide on the planthat is best for them. ObamaCarehas been built on a series of brokenpromises to the American people, itis time for Congress to repeal thelaw and replace it with commonsense solutions that actually lowercosts and create choice in the mar-ketplace.

ObamaCare: Higher costs and fewer jobsBy Senator John Thune

One of the most frighteningthings I can imagine is looking myloved ones in the eyes and notknowing who they are. For toomany South Dakotans, Alzheimer’sdisease has turned that kind of fearinto a reality. This degenerativedisease causes problems withmemory, thinking and behavior,and it impacts 19,000 SouthDakota seniors. Recently, I was in Watertown toparticipate in the Alzheimer’sWalk, and was humbled to be anhonorary chairperson. Being a partof this event and visiting withthose with Alzheimer’s as well ascaregivers was eye opening andheart wrenching. Alzheimer’s is thesixth leading cause of death inAmerica, and it cannot be pre-vented, cured or even slowed. But this doesn’t mean there isnothing we can do. While researchis ongoing, the rest of us can helpby increasing awareness aboutAlzheimer’s and providing support

to caregivers. For example, fundsraised by the walk in Watertownare split evenly between nationalAlzheimer’s research and supportof local programs such as a RespiteScholarship Program, which helpscaregivers get a break from theemotional stress of caring for some-one with Alzheimer’s. One thing I’ve heard often fromthose in the Alzheimer’s commu-nity is that too few understand thechallenges that people with the dis-ease face every day. We can helpchange that. September is WorldAlzheimer's Month, and I want toencourage all South Dakotans totake a moment and think aboutthis disease and how they canshare love with someone with it orsomeone impacted by it. Rep. Kristi Noem is SouthDakota’s lone U.S. Representative,elected in November 2010. Sheserves on the Agriculture, Educa-tion and Workforce and NaturalResources Committees.

Investing in America’s RuralCommunities

As producers face an historicand ongoing drought today, Presi-dent Obama and I are doing all wecan to help farmers and ranchersmitigate its effects – while helpingcommunities to overcome the eco-nomic challenges posed by thedrought. To carry out our work on behalfof 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 assistancefor livestock producers, expired lastyear. Other aspects of the law ex-pire on October 1st and over thenext few months if Congress fails toact. Unfortunately, the House lead-ership has left Washington withoutpassing a new comprehensive, mul-tiyear Food, Farm and Jobs Bill.When the current Farm Bill ex-pires, this will leave producers withneedless uncertainty as they workhard to get through the currentdrought – particularly America’sdairy producers, who will lose ac-cess to a critical dairy safety netprogram on September 30. Inaction by Congress alsothreatens USDA’s efforts to invest

in our small towns, and help growthe rural economy. One good exam-ple is our capacity to provide com-munity infrastructure and facilitiesacross the nation. Since 2009, USDA has made arecord level of loans and grants tosmall towns to help them providemore community services and buildmore community facilities. In fact,our efforts have made possiblemore than 7,700 community facili-ties projects nationwide, impactingnearly 31 million rural Americans. That includes more than 3,200projects 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 1,000medical clinics and hospitals, re-ducing the long drives you some-times face to visit a doctor, andensuring that care is readily avail-able in case of a medical emer-gency. And it includes projects to im-prove education opportunities forrural Americans. We’ve invested inprojects to build or improve morethan 900 schools and communitycolleges, along with 475 libraries,to ensure that rural Americanshave the same educational oppor-tunities as city residents. These community facilities arejust one piece in our plan to em-power rural America – and theystand as a part of the long list ofrecord achievements USDA hasposted in the past three years. At USDA, we will continue ourefforts to help producers and to in-vest in small towns and rural com-munities. Meanwhile we needCongress to get their job done toensure that we can continue theseaccomplishments in the comingyears.

Mines beats Harvard by $2,600.Why is this happening? Becausethe School of Mines is offeringhigh-quality programs in the engi-neering fields – where there arelots of jobs and strong demand formore highly skilled graduates.

In a third piece of good news,South Dakota’s Lake Area Techni-cal Institute (LATI) was named inSeptember as one of 10 finalists forthe Aspen Prize for CommunityCollege Excellence, which is the na-tion’s signature recognition of highachievement and performance inAmerica’s community colleges.This is the second year in a rowthat LATI has been honored in thisway.Dakota State, the School of Mines,and LATI are not alone. Every oneof South Dakota’s universities andtechnical institutes offers greatprograms that prepare our stu-dents to compete in high-demandfields – from accounting or medi-cine at USD, to engineering andpharmacy at SDSU, to bankingand music education at NorthernState, to science and math educa-tion at Black Hills State, to highlyfocused programs for careers inhealth care, manufacturing, elec-trification, and other needed occu-pations at our other great technicalinstitutes.

We hear a lot about the unem-ployment rate among young people,but that's not a big problem forgraduates from any of the pro-grams I just mentioned. It's some-thing for high school students tothink about as they plan for highereducation: Try to find an educationmajor that will get you a job at theend.

There are plenty of great op-tions, right here in South Dakota.

Sometimes South Dakota canhave an inferiority complex. Be-cause we're small or because we'rerural, we sometimes think we don'tstack up with other places. Butbeing small and rural doesn't meanbeing second-rate. Three nationalnews stories recently reported thatSouth Dakota has a lot to cele-brate.

The October 2012 issue of FastCompany magazine includes an ar-ticle entitled "Schooling Cybernin-jas." The article reports that theNational Security Agency, a part ofthe U.S. Department of Defense, isworking hard to train new com-puter security experts to protectour nation's online infrastructurefrom attacks. As the article notes,"The goal is to create a pipeline ofgovernment-vetted talent, andwith it, a robust line of virtual na-tional defense."

NSA selected four universities tolaunch NSA-certified cybersecurityprograms. One of those four schoolsis Dakota State University. Gov.Bill Janklow made Dakota State"the computer school" in the 1980s,and in the decades since, DSU hasdeveloped cutting-edge programsin information assurance, biomet-rics, and other information technol-ogy fields. DSU has a nationalreputation for excellence – and it isright here in South Dakota.

Another South Dakota univer-sity was featured by BloombergNews on Sept. 18. The article,headlined "Harvard losing out toSouth Dakota in graduate pay,"noted that while a Harvard gradu-ate earns an average $54,100 start-ing salary, a new graduate of theSouth Dakota School of Mines andTechnology earns $56,700 on aver-age. That's right – the School of

SD Secretary of Agriculture WaltBones gave the keynote addressduring the Awards Banquet andpresented information regardingthe Department of Agriculture's ef-forts to promote livestock produc-tion, specifically feeding capacity, inSouth Dakota. Bones also sharedthe results of the Key LeadersRoundtable planning sessionhosted in June to help guide the De-partment's priorities on items likewater management, youth in agri-culture, infrastructure develop-ment, zoning, research at SDSUand increasing livestock produc-tion. George Chambers, President ofR-CALF USA addressed the audi-ence on Friday evening. His presen-tation urged producers to getinvolved in organizations likeStockgrowers and to represent theirindustry with pride. Chamberssaid, "The issues we face today willshape our children's ability to besuccessful 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 Denverspoke about his organizations ef-forts to promote beef in foreigncountries. Hanes focused his pres-entation on the growing demand forbeef in Asian countries where theconsumer purchasing power isgrowing much faster than theirability to produce quality beef.

Joining Hanes was SD Sen-ator Shantel Krebs who spokeabout her recent trip to China. The Brand Committee meetingfeatured a panel of speakers thatincluded Brand Board membersScott Vance of Faith and WandaBlair of Vale, and Brand Board Di-rector Larry Stearns.

sional candidate Matt Varilek, VickiOlson speaking about wildernessdesignations and coordination withlocal governments, SD Representa-tive Stace Nelson, SD Cattle-women, and Dr. Amanda Blair whospoke about her research on fetalprogramming in beef cattle.

Officers Elected During the membership meet-ing, Stockgrowers members re-elected Shane Kolb as the Presidentand Bob Fortune as Vice-president.This is the second one-year term forboth men.

New Policies Adopted Stockgrowers policy platformsthat guide the Association through-out the year are adopted by mem-bers during the convention and thisyear four committees proposed poli-cies to be adopted. Cattlemen's Beef Board mem-bers Vaughn Meyer and LindaGilbert spoke during the conven-tion and explained the procedurethat their committee uses to ap-prove funding requests for Checkoffdollars to be spent. The Marketingcommittee proposed a policy thatincludes several specific points forreforming the Beef Checkoff to in-clude more transparency and ac-countability from contractors and tocall for the separation of the check-off funds from policy organizations.The policy was adopted by themembership. The Stockgrowers Wildlife Man-agement Committee adopted a verycomprehensive policy that seeks toaddress the funding mechanism inthe State Prairie Dog ManagementPlan. The policy resolution adoptedby the members calls on the StateDept of Ag and the SD GF&P tofully fund the management plan asrequired by the existing state law. Stockgrowers also amendedtheir agriculture land taxation pol-icy to include strong call for the con-tinued implementation of theproduction based property tax sys-tem with an allowance for the ac-tual use of the property rather thana strict highest-and-best use ap-proach currently being used.

Healthy SnacksWhile Hunting

The fall colors are starting to ap-pear and the air is getting crisp. Itis that time of the year whenhunters are out walking long dis-tances trying to locate their prey.Many hunters are so intent ontheir mission of hunting that theybegin their day with sunrise andcan go hours and hours withouttaking a break. Many huntersdon’t associate their hunting activ-ities with exercise, even thoughthey are getting quite a workout.With good planning, hunters canpack enough healthy snacks tohave 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. Don’tforget to drink before gettingthirsty. If you wait until you feelthirsty, you have already becomedehydrated. Pack frozen or par-tially frozen bottled water to enjoythrough the day. There is a lot of junk food thatfalls into the “fast” and “easy”snacking categories such as sodas,chips and candy bars. It takes onlya little time and effort to makeyour own healthy snacks to pack.Items you may want to include arewhole wheat crackers, fresh fruitsuch as an apple, orange or ba-nana (which are naturallyportable), a fruit smoothie in athermos, or fiber-rich cereal eatendry from a baggie. Trail mix is a good snack to con-sider and it is easy to grab and go.Mix together any combination ofnuts, raisins, pretzels and whole-grain cereals and store in individ-

ual bags. The nuts are a goodsource of protein and raisins are anutrient dense source of naturalenergy, vitamins and minerals.Mix yogurt raisins, dried fruit andcranberries in your trail mix forcreative variations. Consider packing a small, insu-lated backpack with reusable icepacks or frozen 100% juice boxes tokeep perishables food safe. Packyogurt with granola, frozen grapes,low-fat cheese cubes, vegetablesticks with low-fat dressing pack-ets, leftover slices of turkey orchicken, or pickles (wrapped inplastic or foil). These snacks usesmall amounts of space in a back-pack, but would serve as tasty,healthy treats throughout the day. By planning your nutritioussnacks when hunting, you can pre-vent between-meal hunger andavoid overeating later.

Controlling Prairie DogsAlthough prairie dogs currently

inhabit a small percentage of theiroriginal range, they can severelyreduce the available grazing inareas where they are established.The reduction in grazing becomesparticularly noticeable in dryyears, as grass production is signif-icantly less than years with goodrainfall.

There are biological, culturaland mechanical methods of controlthat can be used to help manageprairie dogs, but producers gener-ally rely most heavily on chemical(baits and fumigants) controlmethods. Zinc phosphide has beenthe bait control option for manyyears, with aluminum phosphideand gas cartridges providing thefumigant options. Rozol was ap-proved for a brief time in SouthDakota, and after being removedfrom the registered products forprairie dog control, will again beallowed beginning October 1, 2012.

If you are planning to applyRozol, it’s important to know thatthere are some key label changesfrom the previous period when itwas registered in South Dakota.The treatment period is now Octo-ber 1 to March 15, with no mentionof “spring green-up”. According tothe current label, the applicatormust return to the site within 4days after the bait application, andat 1 to 2 day intervals to collectand properly dispose of any bait ordead and dying prairie dogs foundon the surface. These inspectionsmust continue for at least 2 weeks,but longer if carcasses are stillbeing found. The label outlinesspecific requirements for conduct-ing the inspections and disposingof 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:http://www.cdms.net/LDat/ld98B010.pdf.

South Dakota’s Rank inUnited States AgricultureThe 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. Thesunflower seed production rankingmay be temporary, as NorthDakota’s acreage was down sub-stantially in 2011 because of wetplanting conditions.

South Dakota also ranked thirdin flaxseed, honey, and proso milletproduction, as well as lambs born.The Rushmore state came infourth in oat and sorghum forgrain production, and fifth for beefcows that have calved and land infarms and ranches. Included in thesixth place ranking were all sheepand lambs, all wheat production,calves born, corn for grain, durumwheat, heifers 500 lbs and over,market sheep and lambs, otherspring wheat production and win-ter wheat production.

Falling into the seventh placecategory was harvested acreage ofprincipal crops, and steers 500 lbsand over, while the eighth place in-cluded all cattle and calves, cattleand calves on feed, and soybeanproduction. Finally, South Dakotaranked ninth in all other hay pro-duction and pigs born.For more information, visit:http://www.nass.usda.gov/sd/.

Cow-calf producers can assessthe value of their cattle and gainvaluable performance informationwith the 2012-2013 Calf Value Dis-covery Program, offered by SDSU,says Julie Walker, SDSU ExtensionBeef Specialist. "The CVDP is a exceptional wayfor cow-calf producers to get sci-ence-based data that can make adifference in their operations,"Walker said. "Once they enter cat-tle into the program, they will re-ceive updates on performance andthat information can help them tomake better management deci-sions. Many producers have usedthis program to increase their op-erational profit." There is cost for the CVDP perhead for registration. Producerswill consign a minimum of five 500-to 800-pound steers to the pro-gram. Extension and SDSU staffwill feed those cattle in an acceler-ated finishing program at Vander-Wal Yards near Bruce, S.D. Cow-calf producers must sign upbefore October 15. To do so, theycan complete a participation formand 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: [email protected] can also be addressed toWarren Rusche at 605-882-5140 oremail questions to him [email protected] . The CVDP Web site is availableat this link:www.sdstate.edu/ars/species/beef/calf-value/index.cfm. From the site,producers can get information onthe costs, data they will receive,and download registration forms. Producers should make checkspayable to SDSU Department ofAnimal Science. Staff will receivecattle at the Cottonwood Agricul-tural Experiment Station nearPhilip, S.D., on Oct. 22, or at Van-derWal Yards near Bruce on Oct. 23or 24. "Groups of cattle will be sold intruckload lots using a grid pricingsystem starting on approximatelyMay 15," Walker said. "We require that the cattle en-tered into the program be dehornedand castrated, as well as healed,before they arrive at the feedlot,"Walker said. "Calves do not have tobe weaned or pre-conditioned toparticipate, be we do ask that cow-calf producers let us know beforethey arrive so that we may admin-ister vaccinations and de-wormingtreatments upon arrival for calvesthat are not pre-conditioned." The program will finance feed,yardage and veterinary bills of thecattle in the program, and anydeath loss will be shared amongparticipants. Walker said the pro-gram can benefit cow-calf produc-ers in South Dakota. "We had solid participation inthe program last year and inviteproducers to return, and we'rehappy to answer questions forother producers who have not triedthe CVDP," Walker said.
