During the 71st South Dakota
Rural Electric Association annual
meeting Jan. 10 and 11, numerous
South Dakotans were recognized
for their dedication to the electric
cooperative program in the state.
SDREAs 28 electric cooperative
distribution systems and three gen-
eration and transmission electric
cooperatives serve nearly 300,000
people across 90 percent of South
Dakotas land mass. These systems
are member-owned utilities estab-
lished to provide at-cost electric
service to more than 114,000
farms, homes, schools, churches,
businesses and other establish-
ments across the state.
SDREA is the service associa-
tion of the states electric coopera-
tives and is devoted to unifying,
promoting and protecting the inter-
ests of member electric coopera-
tives in South Dakota by providing
leadership, training, communica-
tion, legislative representation and
other member services. Each of the
31 SDREA member cooperatives
selects a director from their local
board, which is elected by the coop-
eratives membership, to represent
the cooperative on the SDREA
board of directors.
Fifty-eight cooperative directors
and employees were recognized for
25 or more years of service to the
states electric cooperatives. Those
recognized, along with their years
of service and the cooperative they
are affiliated with, include:
30 Years of Service: Marvin
Moor, West Central Electric Coop-
erative, Murdo; 35 Years of Service:
Steve Reed, West Central Electric;
50 Years of Service, Ray Osburn,
Cherry Todd Electric.
South Dakota Co-ops
honored at meeting
by Del Bartels
Philip, a one-third partner of the
continuing Stronger Economies To-
gether project, hosted the Wednes-
day, January 9, multi-community
session.
The first meeting, in December,
was held in Kadoka. The third
meeting, in February, will be held
in Wall. Attendees are still con-
tributing toward a growing kitty of
possible names for this specific
SET region. Made up of Haakon
County, Jackson County and the
eastern portion of Pennington
County, the economic partnership
could vote to be called the Bad-
lands/ Bad River Region, Western
Plains Region, Central Plains Con-
nection, Old West Region or some
other name that was in the sugges-
tion jar.
This two-year federal program is
currently in its third round. The
two-year programs first year is the
creation of an economic plan for a
given region. The second year is for
the fun work of putting that plan
into action.
After a supper social provided by
the Philip Chamber of Commerce,
the attendees of this session fo-
cused on three main topics. The
first point discussed was the cur-
rent demographics of this region,
not only what they look like today
but what they are projected to look
like in the future. It was stressed
by speaker Dr. David Olson, com-
munity development program di-
rector, and video-taped Dr. Michael
McCurry, state demographer, that
projections, even from the Census
Bureau and other fact-based
sources, can change. Haakon
County has been losing population
for years. Currently, over 20 per-
cent of its population is over 65
years of age. Communicable dis-
eases, such as whooping cough and
others, have been diminishing,
while degenerative diseases, such
as cancer and those associated with
old age, have been increasing. In
Haakon County, the average in-
come has increased, yet the num-
ber of people considered under the
poverty line has also increased.
Things can change.
The second main topic was an at-
tempt to determine what makes a
strong region, particularly this re-
gion. Differences between the
Philip, Kadoka and Wall communi-
ties are numerous. The similarities
can be used to strengthen their
partnership.
The third main topic was an ex-
amination of existing economic de-
velopment plans in the region. One
of these was a new idea promoted
by residents from the Kadoka area.
Several plans were revisited plans
from Horizons meetings held in the
individual communities from previ-
ous years.
Kari ONeil, community develop-
ment field specialist, stated that
the kickoff session produced some
great thoughts on how this region
can gain a competitive advantage
by working together, pooling re-
sources and building relationships.
As the sessions move forward, at-
tendees are to invite those diverse
and committed people they know
who would be assets to this group.
The only real requirement is an
openness to this process and a pas-
sion for this region.
The Philip session discussed the
Creation, Attraction, Retention,
Expansion model. Communities
can grow from the creation of new
businesses, from the attraction of
new industry or businesses, from
the retention and strengthening of
existing businesses, and from the
expansion of existing firms in the
region.

The United States Department
of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Devel-
opment honored BankWest, Inc.
today for their partnership in uti-
lizing the USDA Business & Indus-
try (B&I) Loan Guarantee Program
to increase access to capital and
support jobs for businesses in rural
areas of South Dakota. BankWest
has also utilized a USDA Rural De-
velopment Community Facilities
Loan Guarantee to develop essen-
tial community facilities in the
area.
President Obama is committed
to strengthening rural communi-
ties, said Elsie Meeks, South
Dakota USDA Rural Development
State Director. By working with
private lenders throughout the
state, USDA Rural Development is
able to increase investment capital
and assist communities and local
organizations build a strong busi-
ness infrastructure to nurture eco-
nomic growth.
USDA Rural Development pro-
vided a $296,200 Business and In-
dustry Loan Guarantee for Bank
West, Inc. that, through leveraging,
assisted a local business. This proj-
ect is expected to retain 16 jobs in
the local community.
Working with programs like the
B&I Guaranteed Loan Program to
help improve local economies and
create opportunities for local citi-
zens is a natural partnership for
BankWest, said BankWest Vice
President/Sr. Ag Officer Gary
Ambur. Helping area customers
and communities achieve financial
success is the most important and
rewarding aspect of community
banking.
In Fiscal Year 2012, USDA
Rural Development Business & In-
dustry (B&I) Guaranteed Loan pro-
gram made available $33.2 million
that, through leveraging $128 mil-
lion, assisted nine businesses.
The purpose of the B&I Guaran-
teed Loan Program is to improve,
develop, or finance business, indus-
try, and employment and improve
the economic and environmental
climate in rural communities. This
purpose is achieved by bolstering
the existing private credit struc-
ture through the guarantee of qual-
ity loans which will provide lasting
community benefits. Visit

President Obamas plan for
rural America has brought about
historic investment and resulted in
stronger rural communities. Under
the Presidents leadership, these
investments in housing, commu-
nity facilities, businesses and infra-
structure have empowered rural
America to continue leading the
way strengthening Americas
economy, small towns and rural
communities. USDAs investments
in rural communities support the
rural way of life that stands as the
backbone of our American values.
President Obama and Agriculture
Secretary Tom Vilsack are commit-
ted to a smarter use of Federal re-
sources to foster sustainable
economic prosperity and ensure the
government is a strong partner for
businesses, entrepreneurs and
working families in rural commu-
nities.
USDA, through its Rural Devel-
opment mission area, has an active
portfolio of more than $176 billion
in loans and loan guarantees.
These programs are designed to
improve the economic stability of
rural communities, businesses, res-
idents, farmers and ranchers and
improve the quality of life in rural
America.
BankWest, Inc. receives honor
from Department of Agriculture
South Dakota Rural Water Associ-
ation and Jake Fitzgerald of West
River/Lyman-Jones to discuss
water options.
There was no action take on
having a meeting.
However, a motion carried to ap-
prove the contract contingent on
receipt of written compliance
guidelines.
Other than plowing snow,
Patrick Solon said he is working on
compiling information for potential
street projects for the year 2013.
He will present more information
at the next meeting.
Dick Stolley said hed received a
phone call regarding the city plow-
ing alleys.
The city alley ordinance reads
that unless its a commercial alley,
it is up to the residents to take care
of alley work. Commercial alleys
include those next to Main Street
and along the Kadoka Nursing
Home. Any other snow plowing
would be done to allow access to
fuel or propane delivery.
Stolley also noted that the year-
end inventory was done at the city
bar on January 3.
The council reviewed a 2013
commercial service contract from
TruGreen for lawn and tree care for
the softball fields and city park.
The contract amount was for
$3,831.25.
A motion carried approve the
contract and lock the prices in for a
three-year period, if payments can
be made yearly.
The next regular meeting will be
held on Monday, February 11 at
7:00 p.m.
Brad Jorgensen called the regu-
lar meeting of the Kadoka City
Council to order on Monday, Janu-
ary 14. Absent was Mayor Harry
Weller and Kieth Prang.
The bills and finance statement
were approved. It was noted that
all departments, including the
water department, were in the
black at the end of the year.
A motion carried to combine the
city election on April 9, 2013 with
the school election.
Bob Fugate addressed the coun-
cil regarding the sound system at
the auditorium.
For a $700 fee, Mid States Audio
& Video will readjust the current
sound system and look for dead
spots.
Fugate said KCBA, Horizons
and the Kadoka Music Parents
have agreed to help by paying $100
each. He asked that the city pay
$200 and with the school paying an
additional $200, there would be
enough money to get Mid States
here to look at the system.
He said the school had asked
that board member Dale Chris-
tensen be there when Mid States
looks at the system. In addition,
Fugate asked that Colby Shuck at-
tend as well.
A motion carried to give $200 to-
ward checking the sound system.
Under the water/sewer report
Nathan Riggins said they had
moved a water line west of Dis-
count Fuel.
Riggins also presented a con-
tract from Maguire Iron, Inc. for
water tower work which would in-
clude sandblasting and applying
two coats of epoxy to the interior of
the downtown tower. The lump
sum of work would total $24,890.
Riggins said Maguire Iron asked
that the city sign the contract so
Maguire Iron can put the city work
on their schedule.
Jackie Stilwell noted that she
could set up a meeting with the
Kadoka City Council discusses
water tower, sound system issues
ply, according to stock contractors.
Its been the case for a while,
and overall, there are more good
bucking horses now than there
were in the 70s and 80s, due to
breeding, but we definitely need
more, said Ike Sankey, a Joliet,
Mont., cowboy and the PRCAs
Stock Contractor of the Year in
1999.
Suttons concept is simple. He
rallied five competing stock con-
tractors, including Sankey, to agree
to share bloodlines of their cham-
pion bucking horses. Each brought
10 mares and one high-caliber stud
to Suttons ranch. All of the studs
had been selected for the Wrangler
National Finals Rodeo at some
point.
From May 1 to July 1, Sutton
babysat as the horses went to pas-
ture. Suttons property is large
enough that each band of mares
ranging from seven to 13 in num-
ber had a separate pasture bor-
dered by two fences, so the stallions
couldnt fight. Stock contractors
paired at least one of their mares
some bred before, others maiden
with each stud. The cross-breeding
arrangement was all horse trade
no fees changed hands, with the ex-
ception of a feed payment to Sutton
of $3 per day, per horse.
Some 15 stock contractors
showed interest, Sutton said. But
some snubbed the program from
the get-go; others folded at the last
minute.
Kirsten Vold, who runs Harry
Vold Rodeo Co., which her father
started in 1954, thought about join-
ing but decided not to not because
she thinks its a bad idea but be-
cause the setup wasnt right for
her.
Sutton asked Vold to pony up
Painted Valley, the PRCAs 2010
Saddle Bronc of the Year and the
top saddle bronc at the 2009 NFR.
Vold declined.
Im glad more rodeo companies
are working together to try to im-
prove the genetics of our sport, and
I appreciate the opportunity, she
said. But I currently get $2,500
per mare for a breeding with
(Painted Valleys) semen, and I
want to keep the value of the prod-
uct. My lack of involvement is not
due to me not supporting the proj-
ect but of protecting my commod-
ity.
While stock contractors some-
times arrange individual stud
trades with a fellow contractor to
diversify bloodlines, they are gen-
erally protective of their stock.
That, Vold said, has been a mis-
take.
What everyones figuring out is
we all succeed if we all share and
cross bloodlines, she said. What
Steve is doing is groundbreaking,
the start of something new. Its an
easy way to breed a lot of different
studs at one time.
Breeding the same stud year
after year results in good mixes
with some mares but not others,
Vold said, which can reduce the
chances of ending up with a stellar
bucking horse.
Sankey agrees its a challenge
for breeders to introduce new ge-
netics to their stock and said he
was excited to give Suttons pro-
gram a try, bringing two world-
champion mares and others who
have been good producers.
The ideal situation would be to
end up with 10 colts that were all
world champions. Thats not a real-
istic goal, but who knows? he said.
A proven bucking horse thats good
enough to be selected for the NFR
can fetch around $40,000, Sutton
said, adding that the rare top buck-
ing broncs have sold for $100,000
to $200,000.
Sutton did not test the mares in
this years program to see if theyre
pregnant. Foaling should occur in
mid-April. The offspring wont be
bucked until theyre about five
years old, which is when theyll
demonstrate their prowess.
No one seems worried about cre-
ating bucking horses that are just
too rank for cowboys to ride.
One thing time has proven: the
better the horses are, the better the
contestants are, Sankey said. I
think raising bucking horses is
going to spread out to more than
just a select group of stock contrac-
tors. I think youll find investors
starting to get into breeding be-
cause a horse can perform at his
peak from five years old until 14 or
15. A bull has maybe two to three
years, and hes peaked.
Sutton wants to make the cross-
breeding program an annual event
and has dreams of expanding to a
larger-scale operation. He also has
visions of being able to announce
success in five years.
I hope well celebrate at the
NFR the great thing that was
started here, he said.

Steve Sutton is a gambling man.
But hes playing no ordinary game
of chance. Suttons using mares as
chips and superstar studs as his
ace in the hole.
There isnt much to lose, the
South Dakota stock contractor fig-
ures. A little time, effort and money
could be up in smoke if his experi-
ment fails. On the other hand, a
windfall could be in the cards.
Patience is in order first. He and
five other stock contractors wont
know if their wager will pay off for
about five years.
Nope, there are no guarantees,
Sutton said. Its a risk, and Ive
had people tell me I was crazy. But
the bucking horse world needs a
boost, and Im hoping this deal can
help.
Earlier this year, Sutton, who
co-owns Onida, S.D.-based Sutton
Rodeos Inc., with his father, Jim,
launched the Breeding to Buck
Program of 2012.
I watched the bull world change
from 20 years ago by trading
semen. I couldnt talk anybody in
the horse world into doing that,
Sutton said. Now, were in the
same situation with bucking horses
theres a shortage of good ones.
The population of bucking
horses has been in a crisis mode be-
fore. After World War II ended and
rodeo resurged in popularity, stock
contractors scrambled to meet de-
mand, as more wide-open spaces
became fenced, and fewer wild
horses roamed the land.
Stock contractors like Suttons
grandfather James, a ProRodeo
Hall of Famer, figured out how to
breed horses to buck, and the
process became an industry stan-
dard.
Today, demand for rank bucking
horses is once again outpacing sup-
Chance worth taking: Sutton, contractors
come together in crossbreeding effort

John 17:1-26
Sin is a divider. Thats what separated mankind
from the Lord in the garden, and it has been fracturing
relationships ever since. Its also the reason that God
considers reconciliation so important. He wants to re-
establish an intimate relationship with fallen humanity. But His desires for His children dont end with
their salvation experience. He also wants His church to be a shining example of unity for all to see.
The last time Christ prayed for His followers before going to the cross, He asked that they may all be
one as the Father and Son are one (v. 21). Despite the fact that we cannot attain perfect unity with God
until we reach heaven, we do have the capacity to walk in harmony with Him by living in obedience to
His Holy Spirit within us.
The other aspect of oneness that God desires for us is unity with one another within His church. We
will always have differences in what we prefer and how we interpret certain Bible passages, but our com-
mon identity as Christians is based on the essential truths of the faith as revealed in Gods Word. The
unity Christ advocates is possible only when each member of His body walks in submission to the Spirit
so that together they can achieve the purposes of God and reflect Christs character in their behavior.
Ask the Lord to produce a desire for unity within your heart. When youre tempted to demand your
own way, remember whats at stake. Accord in a local church allows God to do His work effectively through
that congregation, but its also an attractive witness that draws the lost world to Christ.

Ruby Helm Kosters, 74, of
Pierre, SD, was called home to
heaven on Thursday January 17,
2013, at Avera St. Marys Hospital
in Pierre and has now joined the
legions who walk with God.
Ruby Gene Helm was born
March 30, 1938, to Frieda Belle
(Seiler) and Arthur Henry Helm at
their farm northwest of Java, SD.
She attended country school
through eighth grade and Java
High School, graduating in 1956.
Ruby attended business college for
one year in Aberdeen and worked
at the county courthouse serving
in the treasurers office.
On July 17, 1957, Ruby married
the love of her life, Henry Garret
(Hank) Kosters at Selby, SD. They
moved to Madison, SD, where she
worked for a time at the local bank
while Hank attended General Bea-
dle State teachers college. During
this time two daughters were born,
Debra (1958) and Daria (1959).
After Hank graduated from col-
lege, they spent two years at Fe-

Marvin McDaniel________________
Marvin McDaniel, age 54, of
Casper, Wyo., formerly of Philip,
S.D., died Saturday, January 19,
2013, at the Wyoming Medical
Center in Casper.
Marvin Fred McDaniel was born
August 2, 1958, in Philip, the son
of Fred Q. and Beverly I. (Mc-
Clure) McDaniel. He grew up in
Philip, graduating from Philip
High School in 1976.
While in high school, Marvin
worked for Jack Hansen at his fur
plant. After graduation, Marvin
worked for Dorothy Brothers,
where he worked on vehicles. Mar-
vin then attended Mitchell Vo-
Tech, where he earned his
electricians license. He moved to
Wyoming where he served as an
apprentice, journeyman, and later
as a master electrician for various
mining companies.
Marvin has made his home in
Casper for a number of years, but
always looked forward to coffee at
Rich Smiths, when he made it
home to the ranch near Philip.
Marvin was a hard worker, and
able to fix anything that needed re-
pairs. Marvin also became quite a
gardener, and enjoyed canning his
produce he raised. He will be
greatly missed by his family and
friends.
Survivors include his mother,
Beverly McDaniel of Quinn; three
sisters, Kerry Wahlquist and her
husband, Peter, of Las Vegas, Nev.,
Kathy McDaniel of Rapid City, and
Patricia Hauk and her husband,
Phillip, of Piedmont; a nephew,
Sean Wahlquist, and niece, Kersey

Memorial services will be held at
2:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 2,
at the American Legion Hall in
Philip, with Pastor Frezil Wester-
lund officiating.
Interment will be at the Masonic
Cemetery in Philip.
Arrangements are with the
Rush Funeral Home of Philip.

Letter to editor:
I really believe we dont need
this land zoning law. You need to
realize any thing you do to your
property you need a permit and
they will tell you how to build it,
plus paying for the permits wont
be cheap. Weve got enough federal
government taxes and such, so we
dont need more county.

Money cant buy happiness,
but it can buy chickens, and thats
pretty much the same thing. I
read this little saying the other
day and thought, Thats about
right. For some strange reason,
Ive always liked having those silly
critters running around the place
making it homey. Theyre so dread-
fully optimistic and cheerful. They
can hardly wait to start each new
day since there is bound to be
something wonderful just about to
happen, or so they think. Open the
door or gate in the morning, and
the birds dont just wander out.
They run and fly out to spread in
all four directions. Pretty soon
theyre chasing grasshoppers,
scratching busily in the dirt, tak-
ing dust baths, and generally hav-
ing a grand old time. Watching all
this lifts my spirits and makes me
smile.
My neighbor, Chuck, apparently
feels somewhat the same way.
They havent had any chickens
around their place for a number of
years, but Chuck has been plotting
to get some for quite a while. Last
spring he finally got things to-
gether enough to order some baby
chicks so he now has eggs to sell
from time to time. Since I unfortu-
nately do not have any hens myself
at present, this is good because
farm-raised eggs do taste better
than those shipped in to the gro-
cery stores. They have more color-
ful yolks as well and firmer shells.
Better-tasting eggs, actually,
and more of them, are one of the
main advantages of having chick-
ens around. In my experience and
financially speaking, you arent
apt to make much money raising
chickens. Youre probably lucky to
break even. The birds are satisfy-
ing in other terms, some of which
Ive just mentioned, but as a
money-maker not so much.
Early last year, Chuck asked
what breeds Id found that might
work out well for him. Heaven
knows Ive had enough experience
through raising thousands of
chickens over the years and trying
dozens of breeds from tiny little
bantams to huge old things. I said
Id found Hubbard Golden Comet
hens to be the best layers of
brown-shelled eggs and some form
of Leghorns for white. Cornish-
Rocks are the best meat chickens
by far. Chuck eventually took some
of my advice but also ordered some
just for fun and because their color,
etc. appealed to him. I know he got
some roosters because Ted at our
river place can hear them crowing
from across the river on a quiet
day.
What doesnt work very well are
those breeds that our touted as
dual-purpose. These are supposed
to be good producers of both meat
and eggs. In practice, those hens
dont lay nearly as well as the ones
bred strictly for egg production.
The roosters also tend to get tough
before theyre big enough to have
much meat on them. I remember
many years ago when Chucks
wife, Merry, was grumbling
around one day that shed
butchered an old rooster and tried
to boil it up for soup. Her comment
was, I boiled that sucker for three
days, and it was still tough. That
may have been a slight overstate-
ment, but it is probably true that
any rooster over six-months old
should just be fed to the cats.
Cooking it is apt to be a waste of
time. Any rooster much over two-
months of age, in fact, is going to
be a little tough unless you fricas-
see it which involves cooking it a
really long time.
Well, as you can probably tell, a
person raises chickens because he
or she enjoys it and reaps some
benefits along the way although
probably not financially. That ap-
plies to lots of other things as well
such as gardening. You can buy
your veggies about as cheaply as
you can raise them, but some
home-raised ones taste ever so
much better. Other pursuits that
grab peoples interest and time
might include hunting, fishing,
woodworking, quilting, knitting,
sewing and genealogy. These
things might not make you rich,
but they might make you happy.
By the way, I saw another say-
ing the other day that probably ap-
plies to neighbor Chuck along with
the one about chickens. That one
goes, The most important thing in
life is to be yourself, unless you can
be a cowboy. Always be a cowboy.
Chuck and a whole lot of other peo-
ple around here would definitely
subscribe to that theory. It tends to
get in the blood. Put another way,
we might say, Money cant buy
happiness, but it can buy horses
and cattle, and thats pretty much
the same thing.
Cant Buy Happiness
Lookin Around
by Syd Iwan
Baxter Badure is once again
making the saddle that R-Calf will
be presenting to someone at the
stock show in Rapid City later this
month. According to Baxs brother,
Greg, the picture tooled into the
seat of the saddle this year will be
taken from a well-known Wyoming
photo of a man on a black horse in
a snowstorm with a calf being bal-
anced against the saddle horn in
front. Bax and Carol are now
pretty much down to one daughter
at home. Brianna, at present, is
mostly living in Hot Springs and
working at a nursing home, Castle
Manor. She likes the work. Kianna
attends sixth grade in Kadoka and
seems to like that too.
Mary Johnston has been staying
fairly close to home during the cold
weather. She does go to Kadoka
most Wednesdays to help with Re-
lease Time at the church and get
some groceries. Church in
Belvidere is usually on the agenda
for Sundays.
Al Badure and Beverly Mc-
Daniel went to Casper, WY, this
week to see Beverlys son, Marvin,
who was critically ill with heart
problems. Marvin, unfortunately,
died later in the week, and his fu-
neral service will be held in Philip
this week. Marvin was only 54 but
had been having health problems
for quite a while.
Bud Stickler of Philip is cur-
rently in the Rapid City hospital
after his knee gave way last week.
Hed had the knee replaced some
years ago, but it gave out on him
when he was shoveling some snow.
He will probably be in the hospital
or rehab for quite a while. Bud has
been a long-time friend of the De-
Vries family and has done carpen-
try work at the Belvidere Church
and around the area.
Frank Carlson reports that we
have a new part-time resident
since mid December who lives on
the old Art Johnston place by the
river southeast of town. His name
is Perry Compton, and he is a
jockey by trade. His family owns
the old Johnston place, and Perry
is doing some renovations on the
house there when he has time off
from riding in races. He came here
from Omaha, NE. Frank says his
morning rounds these days include
tending cattle at Mowrys east of
town, at Bittings northwest and at
Mike Bloms northeast. He said
that James and Colter Carlson
tried some coyote calling on Sun-
day at Lee Addisons. Four coyote
were called in but only was shot.
Norma Headlee said it was a
nice quite weekend for doing tax
work so thats what she did. Bill
and she are getting things caught
up in preparation for the calving
season which will start soon and
will keep the vet clinic busy for a
number of months. Norma said her
brother, Tom DeVries, came to her
rescue last week when she got a
tractor stuck in a snow bank. She
said Tom has been rescuing her out
of this and that for going on fifty
years now and hasnt given up yet.
This weekend, though, she man-
aged to stay out of trouble and did
not need Toms help.
Jo and Jory Rodgers went to
Pierre on Sunday so Jory could
compete in a wrestling tournament
there. He came in second in his di-
vision. Also at the meet were Mark,
Nicci and Greyson DeVries since
Greyson took part in the meet too.
His two older brothers were in a
meet at Winner on Friday and Sat-
urday. Jo said they are still work-
ing on the Belvidere Store and
hope they can open it soon. On
Monday, Jo was planning to drive
to Spearfish for a postal meeting.
Monday is a federal holiday so Jo
didnt have to man a post office
somewhere. In other words, Mon-
day was a holiday from running a
post office but not from postal du-
ties altogether.
Russ and Gay Spinsby are stay-
ing nice and cozy these cold days
thanks to a new heat pump they
had installed last week. Their old
furnace was giving them grief so
the new system was needed. The
heat pump is supposed to be more
efficient that there old system so
Gay is hoping for a lower utility
bill. Both sons have been home to
visit recently. Casey and family
and a hunting friend of Caseys
came from Huron the last few days
of December and were successful in
getting a deer. Marty and family
came the next weekend from Sioux
Falls with their new daughter, Aria
Elizabeth, who was born on Decem-
ber 14. Both sons now have two
kids each, and each has one son
and one daughter. Both Casey and
Marty say their families are now
complete so Russ and Gay may
have to be content with four grand-
kids unless something unexpected
comes along.
Greg and Dana Badure and kids
were visited by Eric and Pam Os-
born on Sunday. Eric brought along
his saw and helped shore up a
weak spot in the floor that occa-
sionally made one wonder if it
might give way and deposit some-
one in the basement. The family
lately has been putting a new
Christmas gift to good use. It is a
video game called Wii which in-
volves standing up to play it. It is
quite popular with the kids espe-
cially, and Greg says it has some
physical activity involved which
isnt a bad thing.
In South Dakota, we have an op-
portunity to make our state safer
and save tens of millions of tax-
payer dollars. It is an opportunity
we must seize.
South Dakotas prison popula-
tion has grown by six times in the
last 35 years. Spending on correc-
tions has tripled in the last 20
years alone. Our state locks up
more people, per capita, than any
of our bordering states. We lock up
75 percent more men than North
Dakota and four times as many
women as Minnesota. We are a
clear outlier.
Unfortunately, these high levels
of imprisonment have not made
our state safer. In the past decade,
17 states have lowered their im-
prisonment rates while also lower-
ing their crime rates at twice the
rate that South Dakotas went
down.
If we do nothing, our prison pop-
ulation will grow by 900 inmates
thats 25 percent in the next 10
years, costing taxpayers $224 mil-
lion. We will need to build two new
prisons.
This spring, I joined the Chief
Justice and legislative leaders in
engaging over 400 stakeholders be-
fore establishing a bipartisan,
inter-branch work group to look
into this problem. The group in-
cluded law enforcement, judges,
legislators, treatment providers,
defense attorneys and prosecutors.
We asked this work group to see
if we could improve public safety,
hold offenders more accountable,
and get a better return on our pub-
lic safety dollars. Im pleased that
the work group came back with ro-
bust recommendations.
Following my State of the State
address, the Chief Justice and 70
legislators, including the Republi-
can and Democratic leaders of the
House and the Senate, joined me in
submitting the South Dakota Pub-
lic Safety Improvement Act.
This measure, Senate Bill 70,
will improve supervision on proba-
tion and parole through expanded
treatment and reduced caseloads,
and it will use proven tools like
drug courts and a new 24/7-style
program for drug offenders.
It will focus our prison space on
violent and career criminals by
punishing drug kingpins more
harshly than users while ensuring
swift and certain sanctions for of-
fenders.
Finally, the bill calls for im-
proved victim notification and
restitution collection, and it re-
quires that all of these programs be
measured and evaluated for effec-
tiveness, year after year.
This path will save our state
tens of millions of dollars in prison
costs while keeping South Dakota
safer. This is the right path for-
ward, and Im not alone in support-
ing the measure. Im joined by the
Chief Justice, Attorney General,
Sheriffs and Police Chiefs, Victims
Advocates, States Attorneys,
County Commissioners, the State
Bar, and Treatment Providers.
South Dakota is showing, once
again, that we can work together to
find common sense, smart solu-
tions to our biggest problems.ing to
get back into a normal routine fol-
lowing the holidays may not have
taken the time to ensure that kids
and parents alike are vaccinated
for the flu this season.

JoAnn Letellier attended a
parish council meeting after church
services at the Our Lady of Victory
Catholic Church on Sunday.
Susan Taft was busy working at
the Wanblee Post Office a few days
this week. Carol Ferguson worked
here at the Norris Post Office in
her absence.
Julie Letellier of Kilgore spent
the Martin Luther King Day holi-
day at the James Letellier home.
A couple of our dear lifetime
Norris residents, Bill and Marjorie
Letellier have moved. Their family
has recently helped Bill and Mar-
jorie get situated in Philip. Bill is
in the nursing home and Marjorie
is a resident at the Silver Leaf As-
sisted Living Center. If you are in
the area, they would sure love to
have you come for a visit; they have
fond memories of Flying Farmers,
baseball games, square dancing,
Norris Extension Club, building
the Township Hall and the activi-
ties at the St. John Lutheran
Church in Norris. They will surely
be missed in this community that
they were so much a part of for so
many years.
Dr. Bill Headlee, DVM of
Kadoka was busy bangs vaccinat-
ing heifers in the area on Thursday.
Tim Merchen helped at the James
Letelliers and was a dinner guest.
Bill had to cover five places that
day so didn't have time to stop.
Good judgment comes from
experience, and a lot of that
comes from bad judgment.

Pastor Denke visited in the
Robert Ring home and was a din-

The James Letelliers were
among those enjoying the basket-
ball game Tuesday evening be-
tween White River and Philip. It
was the White River Tigers first
home game of the season. The score
was in the triple digits, but it
should be high if you are playing
the SD State Champions; if they
expect to defend their title. The
Tigers have such an even team that
the subs are getting some real pol-
ish on them, too. I could watch
those guys play all day long. After
I have watched for awhile, my eyes
fill up with tears. I am so proud of
them. I have cheered for some of
those guys all their lives and they
really make basketball a team
sport.
Norris school news: The archery
program has started and soon will
be an after school class. Ms Lodmel
is the instructor this year.
Thursday, James and Marjorie
Anne Letellier enjoyed attending
the Southern Plains girls basket-
ball tournament in White River.
White River was playing Kadoka so
we had gals we knew on both sides.
Our neighbor gal, Taylor Merchen,
is a real fireball for Kadoka and she
and White Rivers Ashlyn Plooser
were pretty evenly matched so it
made for a real good game.

good work were doing throughout
the state and because it makes them
proud to know that through their fi-
nancial contributions, they are help-
ing their county sheriff.
Eggert also stressed that citizen
memberships are solicited by mail
only - never by telephone. Their No
Telemarketing policy has been in
effect since the associations incep-
tion and is one of the policies that
differentiates the SDSA from other
law enforcement organizations in
South Dakota. They will never
make phone call solicitations and
the public should be aware if they
receive a phone call and they iden-
tify themselves as being the SDSA.
This should be reported.
Its newest campaign will be
mailed in January. For further in-
formation on membership in the
SDSA, contact Eggert at
admin@southdakotasheriffs.org or
PO Box 130, Howard, SD 57349.
Since its inception in 1953, the
South Dakota Sheriffs Association
(SDSA) has made its main objective
to achieve the law enforcement
goals of all South Dakota sheriffs,
their deputies, state attorney and
other law enforcement authorities
in the state.
In addition to its main focus of
serving as a state-level organization
to support SD sheriffs, the associa-
tion also provides training, legisla-
tive representation and educational
conferences for all of its sheriff
members and their staff. Each year,
SDSA organizes two conferences
with themes ranging from personnel
management in law enforcement to
current public safety trends - all in
an effort to keep officials abreast of
changing technologies, methods and
resources.
While it is primarily funded from
sheriff membership, the SDSA also
solicits citizen and business mem-
bership each spring to help fund
several of its programs. Citizens and
businesses become members by pay-
ing the membership dues by mail or
by visiting their local sheriff s office
and filling out a membership appli-
cation. Each member receives a
membership card and a subscription
to the associations newsletter.
To retain its membership base,
renewal notices are mailed to cur-
rent members along with updated
credentials. According to Executive
Director Staci Eggert, Many of our
members support us because of the
South Dakota Sheriffs Association
membership program wants you

recipients are children and 31% are
adults. Disabled adults and low-in-
come parents qualify for Medicaid.
Many of our nursing home resi-
dents qualify for Medicaid. The Af-
fordable Care Act (ACA) allows the
states to expand coverage to those
adults who qualify if they are at
138% of the poverty level. (Chil-
dren are already covered whether
or not we expand Medicaid).
The population affected by the
expansion would be South Dakotas
working poor who do not typically
receive health insurance through
their employer. If states choose to
expand Medicaid, the federal gov-
ernment will cover 100 percent of
the costs from 2014 to 2016. The
feds' contribution will begin to de-
crease in 2017, but will never be

Were now well into committee
work in both Senate Health and
Senate Judiciary as we end the sec-
ond week of the session. As Ive
known over the 12 years Ive served
in the Legislature, the 38 days of
the Legislature go by quickly. As I
mentioned in my last article, Ive
spent many days prior to the start
of this session serving on the Gov-
ernors Criminal Justice Task Ini-
tiative Task Force which will be
bringing forth legislation in this
session to improve our justice sys-
tem by providing for increases in
drug and alcohol courts. The focus
here is to help people recover, not
put them in prison. Last week, I
testified in front of the Joint Appro-
priations Committee and let my
voice show support for this attempt
to help reduce the numbers of in-
mates in our prisons and provide
treatment for those who suffer
from addictions. On Friday, Jan. 18
I again testified in front of the Sen-
ate State Affairs Committee where
it passed unanimously.
Earlier this week I attended
briefings on the proposed Medicaid
expansion which I support. Medi-
caid is one of the largest healthcare
insurers in South Dakota. Most of
the people covered in our state
under Medicaid are children. In
fact, 69% of the current Medicaid

With colder temperatures often
come runny noses, sore throats and
unfortunately, the flu. Families
across South Dakota who are try-
ing to get back into a normal rou-
tine following the holidays may not
have taken the time to ensure that
kids and parents alike are vacci-
nated for the flu this season.
This week, South Dakota was
moved into the widespread flu
classification by the U.S. Center for
Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), leading hospitals and busi-
nesses to take extra precautions. In
total, eleven South Dakotans have
died from the flu and the state has
reported almost 600 cases of flu so
far this season.
Its time to take the flu seriously.
I encourage all South Dakotans to
not only get vaccinated, but to stay
home from work or school if you
have symptoms, such as a cough or
fever. The typical incubation period
for the flu is an average of two days
and adults can be infectious for a
week, starting with the day before
symptoms began. Children can be
contagious even longer.
Flu vaccines protect individuals
from the three flu strains predicted
to be most popular that season.
While the vaccine is still the best
way to prevent the flu, antiviral
drugs can also be a strong line of
defense, as well as common sense
health habits, such as covering a
cough and consistent hand-wash-
ing. South Dakota has the highest
vaccination rate in the country
with over half of our population re-
ceiving the vaccine during the
2011-2012 flu season! In fact,
South Dakota received the Adult
Immunization Coverage Award
from the CDC in 2012.
I encourage South Dakotans to
look at information provided by the
South Dakota Department of
Health or contact a local health
care provider if you have any addi-
tional questions or concerns re-
garding the flu vaccine.

Fighting the Flu
By Rep. Kristi Noem
Since President Obama took of-
fice in 2009, an additional 15 mil-
lion Americans have been added to
the food stamp rolls. This trend has
continued despite economic indica-
tors coming from his administra-
tion that suggest the number of
Americans out of work and en-
rolling in government safety net
programs should be on the decline.
The most recent food stamp par-
ticipation numbers paint a very
troubling picture of the U.S. econ-
omy. According to the latest statis-
tics released on January 4, 2013,
by the Department of Agriculture,
the number of Americans enrolled
in the Supplemental Nutrition As-
sistance Program, commonly re-
ferred to as food stamps, has spiked
to nearly 48 million people, or
nearly 15 percent of the U.S. popu-
lation. Food stamp enrollment has
increased by more than 607,000
just since the last report was pub-
lished in December of 2012.
The enrollment of such a large
number of Americans in the food
stamp program has come at an ex-
tremely high cost to taxpayers.
Last year alone the U.S. govern-
ment spent a record $80.4 billion
on food stamps, and is projected to
spend an estimated $770 billion
over the next 10 years.
With nearly one out of every
seven people using food stamps,
lawmakers should be carefully re-
viewing the rapid increase in en-
rollment and finding answers to
important questions, such as: are
these benefits being provided to
those who need it most; should the
list of eligible food stamp products
be modified; and does this program
encourage independence or does it
instead create an ongoing depend-
ency on government programs?
In December of 2012, I sent a
letter along with Senator Jeff Ses-
sions (R-Ala.) to Wendy Spencer,
Chief Executive Officer for the Cor-
poration for National and Commu-
nity Service (CNCS), a government
entity responsible for matching
government paid volunteers with
local community service organiza-
tions. Our letter outlined our con-
cerns that current CNCS policies
and promotional materials may be
encouraging the exploitation of
food stamps by paid CNCS volun-
teers, resulting in unnecessary food
stamp participation. While this is
just one example of the fraud and
abuse that plagues this system, if a
federal agency such as CNCS is
able to exploit the benefits of an-
other federal program, it is difficult
to predict just how far and wide-
spread fraud and abuse may reach.
It is time for Congress to engage
in a meaningful discussion about
how to best reduce poverty and ex-
pand upward mobility for all Amer-
icans, and take decisive action to
achieve this goal. Congress must
strike a balance to ensure that we
protect our countrys most vulnera-
ble and those who legitimately
need assistance while also cutting
federal spending, reprioritizing fed-
eral programs, and eliminating
waste, fraud, and abuse. As Con-
gress prepares to address our na-
tions overall federal spending, I
will continue to advocate for com-
mon-sense reforms to our nations
safety net programs that will im-
prove Americas social, fiscal, and
economic health.

The Miss America Pageant is
over, but the memories for Miss
South Dakotas extended family
will live on. All of Calista Kirbys
immediate family were in Las
Vegas for the pageant and all are
safely home. Calistas parents and
brother, September and Cory Kirby
and Nathan of Brookings; her
grandparents, Joe and Kathleen
Leutenegger of Kadoka; and aunts
and uncles and their families
Shawna and Rich Bendt and chil-
dren, Kadoka; Shanesa and Wade
Rhodes and children of Black
Hawk, and Starette and Brian
Nash and family of Mitchell, were
all able to attend the ceremonies.
The Leuteneggers and Bendts ar-
rived in Las Vegas on Monday, Jan-
uary 7 and the rest of the family
came later in the week. The family
said they sat with about 100 South
Dakotans at the Saturday night
coronation. Calista and all the con-
testants were awarded $3,000
scholarships for participation in
the pageant. Calista will still have
a busy schedule as Miss South
Dakota until the next pageant is
held in Hot Springs later this year.

Meatless Meals
With this years drought, econo-
mists are predicting a rise in next
years meat prices. This has many
individuals thinking about more
meatless meal options. Generally,
when you say meatless meals
everyone thinks of grilled cheese
or peanut butter sandwiches.
There are many other types of
healthy, inexpensive meatless
meals that are easy to prepare.
Many of us were raised to think
of meats as the most important
part of any meal, but we often eat
more meat than our bodies actu-
ally need. MyPlate (www.choose-
myplate.gov) recommends that
adults consume 4 to 6 ounces of
meat each day (three ounces is
about the size of a deck of playing
cards.) The institute of Medicine
recommends that we get at least
10% and no more than 35% of calo-
ries from protein. The specific
amount that we needs changes
with age.
Protein is key to the growth and
repair of your muscles, bones, lig-
aments, tissues, and even hair,
skin and nails. Protein food
sources such as meat, poultry, fish,
dry beans and peas, eggs, nuts,
and seeds supply many nutrients.
These include protein, B vitamins,
vitamin E, iron, zinc, and magne-
sium. We also get protein from
grains such as wheat germ and oat
bran. Plant foods such as beans
and nuts are wise choices for pro-
tein, since so many Americans fall
short on fiber.
Canned beans, such as black
beans (1 cup equals 15 grams of
protein), and kidney beans (1 cup
equals 13 grams of protein) can be
easily added to casseroles, soups
and salads. Bags of dry beans are
less expensive than canned. To
prepare dry beans, add 2 cups of
dry beans to 10 cups of cold water.
Bring the water to a boil and con-
tinue boiling for one to three min-
utes. Cover the pot. Let stand for 4
hours, then drain and rinse the
soaked beans. Cover the beans
with fresh water. Serve plain or
use in a favorite recipe; 1-1/2 cups
of cooked beans equals 1 can of
drained beans.
Examples of meatless meals in-
clude: homemade pizza with low-
fat cheese, meatless chili, bean
burritos, soups and stews that in-
clude beans, beans and rice, chick-
peas on salads and vegetable
casserole dishes.
To save money and lower your
fat and cholesterol intake, consider
non-meat proteins and smaller
portions of meat. Consider cutting
out meat one day each week by
having Meatless Monday. Check

ideas at http://bit.ly/WyrrM6.

Plague Affecting Prairie Dog
Populations?
With much of the snow melting,
and labeling of the chemical prod-
ucts registered for prairie dogs al-
lowing use for some time yet, some
opportunity remains this winter
for control. Before initiating chem-
ical control measures however,
landowners would be advised to
make sure prairie dog towns are
active.
Several recent news stories
have relayed the incidence of syl-
vatic plague, the term assigned to
cover all forms of plague in wild
animals, which is affecting prairie
dogs in various locations across the
U.S. Sylvatic plague is believed to
have been introduced into the
North American prairie ecosystem
around 1899, and was first docu-
mented in a prairie dog colony
near Lubbock, Texas, in 1946. A
1999 article states that plague has
been active in black-tailed prairie
dog populations in the northern
Great Plains only within the last
decade although it has been pres-
ent for much longer.
One source states that few if
any healthy prairie dog complexes
currently exist in the Southern
Plains within the United States.
Another article states that sylvatic
plague was first detected in South
Dakota in 2004, and has since
been confirmed on the Fort Pierre
National Grassland, the Buffalo
Gap National Grasslands, in Bad-
lands National Park and on the
Lower Brule Indian Reservation in
South Dakota. Other reports indi-
cate that the plague may be affect-
ing prairie dogs on private land as
well.
In cases where people have con-
tracted the disease, it is usually re-
ferred to as bubonic plague. When
people contract the disease, it is
usually from coming in contact
with an infected rodent (such as a
rat, a squirrel or a prairie dog) or
their fleas. Before the advent of
modern medicine, bubonic plague
struck the human population in
epidemic proportions every few
centuries. Today, improved sanita-
tion practices and modern insecti-
cides and antibiotics have reduced
the threat of plague epidemics in
developed countries like the
United States. According to an ar-
ticle in late-November, 2012, there
had not been any confirmed cases
of the plague in people in South
Dakota as of that time.
Although it is said to be a rare
occurrence, humans can contract
the plague. Modern antibiotics are
effective against plague, but treat-
ment must begin promptly. Symp-
toms include swollen and tender
lymph glands accompanied by
fever, chills, headache and extreme
exhaustion. Although humans con-
tracting the plague is said to be
rare, it only makes sense to take
precautions. People are advised to
keep themselves and their pets
flea-free and away from plagued
areas. If you are working in or
around a prairie dog town, take
steps to minimize your exposure.

It was a good road trip to the
Winner Invitational Wrestling
Tournament for the Philip Area
team as they brought back the first
place team award, eight first and
second individual awards, along
with five other placings, and Rance
Johnson was voted Most Out-
standing Wrestler.
Head coach Matt Donnelly noted
that everyone wrestled well and
the team is almost back to full
strength. Some are coming back
from injuries and illness and he
looks forward to them being better
for the next tournament.
Donnelly said that some schools
are noted for certain techniques
which give the wrestlers more ex-
perience. The only way youre
going to get better is to find the
best and go after them, said Don-
nelly.
Twelve teams participated in the
January 19 tournment with Philip
scoring more than 45 points over
their nearest competitor. Final
team placings were Philip (278.5),
Winner (233), Bon Homme (191.5),
Mobridge-Pollock (155), Redfield/
Doland (115), Sunshine Bible Acad-
emy (90.5), Mt. Vernon/Plankin-
ton/Corsica (72), Todd County (69),
St. Thomas More (49), Andes Cen-

Kwincy Ferguson
Girls Basketball
Kwincy had 3 good games during
the Southern Plains Tournament.
She played very aggressively, both
on offense and defense. She wasn't
afraid to attack the basket and did
a good job posting up under the
basket although she's not your typ-
ical post player. She is very tena-
cious against her opponents and
can create turnovers and draw
fouls. She scored 37 points during
the tournament and was named to
the Southern Plains All-Tournament
team. Keep up the hard work.

The Lady Kougars took part in
the Southern Plains Basketball
Tournament last Thursday, Frid-
day and Saturday.
Kadoka's first game of the tour-
nament had them playing the
White River Tigers on their home
court. Kwincy Ferguson, Marti
Herber and Raven Jorgensen each
had a basket, Tessa Stout hit a
three pointer and Taylor Merchen
made a free throw to give the
Kougars a 10-7 lead after the first
quarter.
Both teams played pretty evenly
the second quarter with Marti,
Taylor, Tessa and Shaley Herber
each scoring a basket. This gave
the Kougars an 18-16 lead at half
time.
The Tigers fought back the third
quarter and outscored the Kougars
12-8, giving White River the lead
28-26.
However, the Kougars had a
strong fourth quarter with Marti,
Kwincy, Tessa, Katie and Shaley
each scoring a bucket. Taylor and
Raven made both their free throws
when they were put on the line and
Tori Letellier got a couple steals
and scored 8 fourth-quarter points.
The Kougars outscored the
Tigers 22-6, which gave the girls
the win with a score of 48-34. Tori
lead scoring with 9 points, Kwincy
- 8, Tessa - 7, Marti and Raven - 6,
Taylor - 5, Shaley - 4 and Katie - 3.

Kadoka 12 25 39 48
Jones Co. 15 29 46 60
Kadoka's second game of the
Southern Plains Tournament had
them facing a strong Jones County
team. Both teams came out fo-
cused, with the intent to win.
Kadoka trailed 15-12 after the
first quarter with Kwincy Ferguson
scoring 3 buckets and 2 free throws
and Katie Lensegrav and Destiny
Dale each with a basket. Kwincy
added another 7 points, Katie - 4
and Tori Letellier - 2, to trail the
lady Coyotes 29-25 going onto half-
time.
The Kougars battled through
the third quarter with Kwincy
adding another 7 points, Marti and
Katie with a bucket and Taylor
with a bucket and free throw. The
Coyotes outscored the Kougars 17-
14, which gave Jones Co. a 46-39
lead going onto the fourth quarter.
The Kougars played hard to the
very end, but didn't attack the bas-
ket like they needed, which led to a
60-48 loss. Kwincy Ferguson led
the team with 22 points and was
4/5 for free throws. Katie Lenseg-
rav added 10 points, Taylor
Merchen - 8, Tori Letellier - 4 and
Marti Herber and Destiny Dale - 2.
The Kougars were 6/10 from the
free throw line and never had a 1-1
opportunity the whole game.
Kadoka 11 24 37 53
Lyman 8 24 34 61
Kadoka played their final game
of the Southern Plains Tournament
in Colome against the Lyman
Raiders. Both teams were evenly
matched which made for an excit-
ing ball game.
Kadoka led at the end of the first
quarter 11-8 with Tori Letellier
scoring a basket and going 3/4 from
the line. Kwincy Ferguson added a
basket and free throw, Tessa Stout
made a basket and Marti Herber
added a free throw.
The second quarter was very in-
tense for both teams. Lyman put
Kadoka in double bonus, but could
only make 10/26. Lyman hit 3,
three pointers the second quarter,
which had the score tied 24-24 at
half time.
Kadoka came out strong the
third quarter with Katie Lensegrav
scoring 10 points, Taylor Merchen
- 2 and Shaley Herber with a free
throw. This gave the Kougars a 3-
point lead going into the final quar-
ter.
Both teams took turns taking
the lead throughout the fourth
quarter, but Kadoka fell into foul
trouble with Kwincy, Marti, Katie,
Taylor and Tori fouling out. The
Lady Raiders converted on free
throws, which ended up giving
them the win 61-53.
The Lady Kougars played a good
game despite the loss. They at-
tacked the basket and rebounded
better than the previous two
games. Katie Lensegrav led the
scoring with 16 points, Taylor
Merchen - 10, Kwincy Ferguson - 7,
Marti Herber and Tori Letellier - 5,
Shaley Herber and Tessa Stout - 4,
and Raven Jorgensen - 2. Kwincy
Ferguson was chosen for the
Southern Plains All- Tournamnet
team. Great job Kwincy!
Kadoka's next games will be
double headers against Jones
County on Thursday, Jan. 24 at
3:00 p.m. MT and Bison on Friday,
Jan 25 at 11:00 a.m. MT.
