The distance from Ocean City,
Washington to Cape Henlopen
State Park in Deleware is 5,000
mile. Not a bad trip to take by air-
plane or car but try it on a horse.
That is what Tracy Delp from
Washington is doing.
A woman, her horse and dog
have set out on this mission to
bring awareness to cancer not only
in humans but also in pets. Tracy
Delp from Washington wants to
put the CAN back into cancer, a
word that changes the rest of a per-
sons life. Tracy came up with the
idea of Coast 2 Coast for Cancer
after her mom had passed away
from Pancreatic Cancer in 2008
and two of her dogs also suc-
cumbed to cancer. According to her
website coast2coastforcancer.webs.
com The goal is to bring everyone
together for a common cause, rec-
ognizing that cancer is cancer is
cancer no matter whom is diag-
nosed. To raise money for the
treatment of people and animals
alike.
Tracy began this trek with a
partner on Mothers Day, May 9,
2011. Unfortunaley, things didnt
work out with her partner and she
had to take time off from her jour-
ney to give them a ride back to
Washington. She didnt let this ob-
stacle stop her. It would be harder
with only herself and her 13-year
old horse and nine-year old dog,
but she has been an outfitter who
has spent nights out in the wilder-
ness alone and accompanying oth-
ers which has given her a leg-up
surviving in the outdoors. Tracy
accepted this new challenge with a
determination that has been un-
stoppable.
She has crossed the states of
Washington, Idaho and Montana
so far and now she is in South
Dakota. She spent Sunday, June
24 in Wall and depending on the
weather may even stay a little
longer.
Tracy has learned to trust her
instincts when it comes to the
route. She said, A lot of variable
come into play. I have to gage the
route on available water and land
exactly where I am suppose to be.
She now lives in the moment-to-
moment day and has to come to
trust in people. She doesnt have
host families lined up for the trip
but rather relies on the generosity
of strangers who have become
friends and supporters of her
cause. Tracy noted that when she
needs to move the pick-up and
trailer or needs a place to hold up
for the night someone comes to my
rescue.
On the front of her horse trailer
is names of loved ones who have
passed away from cancer. These
names have helped fund her cause
and given a sense as to why she
should do this adventure.
If there is a person who can ac-
complish making it to the east
coast by September or October this
woman who knows what cancer
can do to humans and animals will
make it with a CAN Do Spirit.

The Wall School Board approved
the supplemental budget resolu-
tion, audit engagement letter and
contracts at their Wednesday, June
26, special board meeting.
Wall School Business Manager
Niki Mohr walked through the
budget and each fund for the board
members. Mohr explained the
changes she has made to the
budget and the board approved a
motion to accept Supplemental
Budget Resolution 12-6.
Casey Peterson and Associates
have scheduled the audit for the
week of August 13. The cost of the
audit will be $10,300 plus travel
and out-of-pocket cost. The board
approved the audit engagement
letter.

2012-2013 teacher contracts for
Stuart Kitterman, Title 1 Summer
School; Rachel McConaghy, Title 1
Summer School and Susan Willis,
SPED Summer School were ap-
proved.
First reading of Educating
Homeless Children Policy was dis-
cussed. Elementary Principal
Chuck Sykora informed the board
that it is required for the consoli-
dation application from the Associ-
ated School Board. He has made a
change to the wording and said
there are two children in Wall con-
sidered homeless but one has been
taken off of the roster.
Third reading of Internet Safety
Policy heard a lot of discussion. 7-
12 Principal/Superintendent Den-
nis Rieckman related he has
changed one line in the policy and
Randall Poste will be teaching
grades 7 - 12 while Kent Anderson
will teach the lower grades. Board
member Mary Williams is opposed
to the line that Rieckman changed
and voiced her opinion heavily
against it. Williams is concerned
that down the road the duty of
teaching the policy will fall on
teachers who had no input in the
beginning of the program. Rieck-
man said, the line can be stricken
but in order to receive their E-Rat-
ing for federal funding they have
to establish the policy. The board
approved a motion to accept the
policy with the line stricken.
Second reading of Bullying Poli-
cies with specifics in the new
handbook was read.
Second reading of Facility Use
Policy with a change made to add
funeral and memorial services to
the policy was also read.
The board approved a Sci-Fit
Treadmill as surplus.
Kids Garden Market has been
started by Jeannie Sykora, Jackie
Roseth, Brenda Carmichael and
the WASP students reported Mohr.
The produce and money they re-
ceive will be donated to the Coun-
try Cupboard, Back Pack program
and to build up the garden beds
and supplies explained Mohr. The
board approved the WASP funds to
be put in Fund 53 as of June 30.
The next board meeting will be
held on Thursday, July 12 at 8:00
a.m. in the school library.

Range monitoring and research
studies were discussed with atten-
dees at the Rangeland Days and
Soils Days west of Philip June 19
and 20.
South Dakota State University
and National Resources Conserva-
tion Service personnel presented
information and discussed the
findings and applications. The
adult program was held at the Cot-
tonwood Range and Livestock Re-
seach Station.
Mitch Faulkner, NRCS range-
land management specialist from
Belle Fourche, spoke about the
usefulness of monitoring range-
lands.
By monitoring rangeland the
producer can see how his/her man-
agement practices affect vegeta-
tion and the soil. The first step is
to determine your objective,
Faulkner said. The objective could
be increasing ground cover, chang-
ing plant species or their fre-
quency, wildlife habitat, riparian
conditions, or how livestock utilize
the area.
The sites should be recorded at
the same time each year to keep an
accurate record. The time of year
would be based on a producers ob-
jectives. Faulkner said if they are
monitoring for plant vigor, or
studying plants in general, early to
mid-July would be an ideal time.
But if looking for the amount of
forage cover then September or
October would be best.
Faulkner stressed the use of
photos in recording the sites. He
said it is easy to forget exactly how
a site looked when the monitoring
first started. An overall landscape
picture of the site should be taken
and, if desired, a closeup of the
ground can be taken. He suggested
when doing the ground shots, take
several along a 100 foot length and
place an object in the picture for
scale.
Notes also need to be taken each
time the site is checked. In addi-
tion, data such as precipitation for
the year, infestations and temper-
atures should be included.
Janna Kincheloe and Ken Olson,
both based out of Rapid Citys
West River Ag Center, spoke about
rumen fistulated steers which
SDSU will use for grazing and nu-
Range monitoring and research outlined
trition research.
Kincheloe, a research techni-
cian, explained that personnel will
manually empty the rumen and
then the steers will be sent out to
graze. She explained that this will
allow the researchers to remove
the matter, see the availability of
feeds and what plants the steers
are selecting. The grasses are then
returned to the rumen for diges-
tion.
Also, by removing matter from
the rumen the researchers can
check the microbes bacteria,
fungi, and protozoa. Kincheloe
noted that each type of microbe
helps break down the fibers, starch
and fats in the feed and they also
produce enzymes which further
aid in digestion.
Kincheloe said the steers will be
moved to McLaughlin and placed
in a pasture that has a heavy
prairie dog infestation. The study
will check to see if the steers will
graze the fresh sprouted grasses
around the prairie dog town or if
they totally leave that area alone
and find grazing elsewhere. At-
tached global positioning system
units will also help track where
the animals graze.
Olson, a range beef specialist,
and Kincheloe took the group
through the cannulating process.
The animals are not harmed by
the process in which a veterinar-
ian surgically installs the cannu-
las. The animals are closely
watched until the area heals, at
which time they are placed on pas-
tures.
Roger Gates, range specialist at
the WRAC, took the group south
into bordering pastures to review
grazing efficiency and profitability
of pastures.
Gates noted that an ongoing
stocking rate study has been con-
ducted since 1943. The study fo-
cuses on low to high stocking lev-
els, which then reflect excellent,
food and low-fair range conditions,
and how each level affects the prof-
its on each animal.
Gates said grasses in the range
conditions varied due to the graz-
ing intensity. The high intensity
areas tend to buffalo grass and
blue grama and other warm sea-
son grasses. The lower stock rate
pastures tend toward western
wheat grass and other cool season
grasses.
Focusing on the study between
the years 1969 to 2002, the net in-
come on range in excellent condi-
tion, income averaged $9.31 per
acres, good condition at $11.86 and
low-fair at $11.18.
Gates said that the college has
always promoted the excellent
range conditions, but most produc-
ers utilize the good or low-fair, be-
cause they stock the area in high
quantities which are more prof-
itable to him.
In those same groups the aver-
age daily weight gain for the
groups reflected those animals on
the excellent range condition pas-
ture gained an average of 1.61
pounds per acre; good were at 1.69
and low-fair at 1.56.
The Long-Term Production and
Profitability From Grazing Cattle
in the Northern Mixed Grass
Prairie report of the study stated,
Over the 34-year period of the
study, real profit ... steadily in-
creased ... for the low-fair and good
treatments while it remained basi-
cally level for the excellent treat-
ment.

Changes to open meetings
laws take effect July 1
BySDNANewsService
Two changes to South Dakota's
open meetings laws will clarify
when public meeting agendas are
posted and how the public can par-
ticipate in certain public meetings
conducted by teleconference.
The changes are among many
new laws approved by the Legisla-
ture last winter that take effect
July 1.
Public boards that are subject to
the state's open meetings law will
now need to make sure their meet-
ing agenda is posted in a place ac-
cessible to the public for at least a
full 24 hours prior to the meeting.
The agenda also must be posted to
the public board's website if the
board has an online site.
The new law stems from com-
plaints taken up by the state's
Open Meetings Commission. Peo-
ple who had filed complaints with
the OMC argued the old law did
not fully explain how far in ad-
vance of a public meeting an
agenda notice needed to be posted.
Some argued they could not get
sufficient advance notice of a public
meeting because the agenda had
been posted in a public building
lobby not accessible other than dur-
ing normal business hours.
Rep. Burt Tulson of Lake Norden
represents a legislative district
where one of the agenda-posting
complaints brought before the
OMC originated. Residents in the
Willow Lake School District filed a
complaint regarding the posting of
an agenda for a school board meet-
ing.
"I think it's important that the
public can see the meeting agenda,
especially when offices are closed,"
Tulson said. "I think this law
strikes a good balance. Many (pub-
lic boards) were posting agendas
already."
Sen. Ried Holien of Watertown
also was one of key sponsors of the
new law.
"This law was necessary to pro-
tect public oversight of govern-
ment," Holien said. "This law
strengthens the people's right to
know and to offer input. Without
ongoing vigilance, like the kind
this law provides, any level of gov-
ernment could begin to, whether
on purpose or by accident, operate
in secret."
Holien agreed that the new law
should not be too burdensome for
public boards.
"This was a concern of mine
when drafting this legislation,"
Holien said. "While we wanted to
protect the public's right to know,
we also did not want to make gov-
ernment less responsive or more
bureaucratic. Therefore, we made
compliance as easy and flexible as
possible. I do not see any difficulty
in complying with this law."
A second change to the open
meetings laws requires public
boards conducting meetings by
teleconference to allow the public
to listen by phone or the Internet
in certain circumstances.
If less than a quorum of a public
board is present at its designated
meeting location, then arrange-
ments must be made for the public
to listen by telephone or the Inter-
net from anywhere.
Under the old law, the public
would need to go to the public
board's main office if it wanted to
participate in the board's telecon-
ference meeting.
Sen. Al Novstrup of Aberdeen
sponsored the teleconference legis-
lation. A frequent critic of the ad-
ministration of the James River
Water District, Novstrup said he
became increasingly frustrated
when he would have to drive from
his home in Aberdeen to the dis-
trict's office in Huron if he wanted
to listen to a district board's tele-
conference meeting.
"It wasn't that the meeting was-
n't open, it wasn't available at a
price you could afford," Novstrup
said, citing instances where mem-
bers of the public may drive 200
miles in order to listen to a public
meeting that may last only 10 min-
utes.
Novstrup said the change will
affect state boards and commis-
sions more than local government
boards. State boards are more fre-
quent users of teleconference
meetings, often because the board
members are from various loca-
tions across the state.

If you would like to get a Social
Security Statement, which pro-
vides estimates of your future ben-
efits, it is now available online at
www.socialsecurity.gov.
Our new online Social Security
Statement is simple, easy-to-use
and provides people with esti-
mates they can use to plan for
their retirement, said Michael J.
Astrue, Commissioner of Social Se-
curity. The online Statement also
provides estimates for disability
and survivors benefits, making the
Statement an important financial
planning tool. People should get in
the habit of checking their online
Statement each year, around their
birthday, for example.
In addition to helping with fi-
nancial planning, the online State-
ment also provides workers a con-
venient way to determine whether
their earnings are accurately
posted to their Social Security
records. This feature is important
because Social Security benefits
are based on average earnings
over a persons lifetime. If the in-
formation is incorrect, the person
may not receive proper benefits.
The online Statement provides
you the opportunity to save or
print the document for future ref-
erence, or to have handy for dis-
cussions with family members or a
financial planner.
According to the American Cus-
tomer Satisfaction Index, users
are giving the online Statement a
score of 89, making it competitive
with our other top-rated, best-in-
government online services, such
as the Retirement Estimator and
online retirement application.
To get a personalized online
Statement, you must be age 18 or
older and must be able to provide
information about yourself that
matches information already on
file with Social Security. In addi-
tion, Social Security uses Exper-
ian, an external authentication
service provider, for further verifi-
cation. You must provide identify-
ing information and answer secu-
rity questions in order to pass this
verification. Social Security will
not share your Social Security
number with Experian, but the
identity check is an important part
of this new, thorough verification
process.
When your identity is verified,
you can create a My Social Secu-
rity account with a unique user
name and password to access your
online Statement. In addition,
your online Statement includes
links to information about other
online Social Security services,
such as applications for retire-
ment, disability, and Medicare.
For more information about the
new online Statement, please visit

It is not very often that a person
is fortunate enough to work on a
project as important to a commu-
nity as the Wall Ambulance Serv-
ice is to Wall and the surrounding
areas.
Working with the Wall City offi-
cials and staff, county officials, the
ambulance personnel and resi-
dents of this area was indeed an
honor. Working together we were
able to achieve a very fair, afford-
able solution to fund and provide
continued ambulance service to
this area.
On July 10th, the voters of East-
ern Pennington County will have
the opportunity to show their sup-
port to continue this very impor-
tant service to Eastern Pennington
County.
In the case of a medical emer-
gency, response times may literally
be the difference between life and
death. For the health and welfare
of the residents of Eastern Pen-
nington County, please support the
continuation of the Wall Ambu-
lance Service by voting YES on
this very important issue.

It is difficult to speculate as to
the cause of these differences, but
it is important to note that the
profitability of the low condition
pastures, which had the heaviest
stocking rate, did not decline over
time, it actually improved.
In our 34-year study, rangeland
managed to maintain either low-
fair or good range condition was
equally profitable. Profit for both
steadily increased over time. Ex-
cellent condition rangeland was
the least profitable to maintain
and profit remained stable over
time. These results are consistent
with generally observed rancher
behavior concerning range condi-
tion decisions.
Range scientist Pat Johnson in-
troduced a new study at the sta-
tion involving native bird habitat.
Johnson said the proactive study
is designed to be a jump ahead of
any possible bird threaten status
and also to see if the use of live-
stock grazing can help with their
habitat.
Steers were placed in eight
patches within the same pasture.
Water is supplied in the center of
the pasture so as not to be an
issue. Two animals in each patch
have been fitted with GPS units
that record their location every 65
seconds.
Personnel at the Cottonwood
station monitor the height of the
grasses, record found nesting sites
and how they are in relation to
grazing and weight gain on the
steers. The study is still in its first
month, but Johnson is excited
about early data.
Johnson said this preliminary
study will be used to apply for
grants so further research can be
conducted.
Olson discussed the high sulfate
water trials that had been con-
ducted at Cottonwood. Producers
had contacted the college regard-
ing livestock health issues which
led the specialists to the problems
of high sulfate concentrations in
dams, especially during dry years.
He stated no solution has yet
been found for the problem. One
thing that was found is that there
seems to be a genetic disposition to
the level the animals are affected
by the sulfates.
He noted that after drinking
water with sulfates, the sulfates
turn into hydrogen sulfide, a gas,
in the rumen. The gas then affects
brain tissue, creating polio-like
symptoms and in some cases
death.
The change to hydrogen sulfide
is caused by a bacteria, he said, so
focusing on the bacteria may be an
avenue. As of now there are no
plans for further research regard-
ing sulfate water.
Gov. Dennis Daugaard ex-
pressed his dismay with the
United States Supreme Courts de-
cision to uphold President
Obamas health law.
I am disappointed with the
Courts decision, but I am proud of
the effort put forth by South
Dakota and the other states in-
volved in the lawsuit, the Gover-
nor said. It is up to state leaders
to stand up for the rights of our cit-
izens when we believe the federal
Gov. Daugaard disappointed with U.S.
Supreme Court decision, will weigh options
government steps beyond the
bounds of the Constitution.
As a result of the Supreme Court
decision, on Jan. 1, 2014, every in-
dividual American will still be re-
quired to purchase health insur-
ance or pay a fine, and a health in-
surance exchange will be required
in every state.
I am still convinced that the
Presidents health law is bad policy
and I will continue to fight to pro-
tect South Dakota citizens from its

South Dakotas great places:
Black Hills caves
Mysterious, alluring and wild,
Black Hills caves have stood the
test of time and provide enjoyment
for todays visitors, making them
some of South Dakotas Greatest
Places.
The caves found in the Black
Hills are among the oldest and
longest in the world and form one
of the largest concentrations of
cave passageways on the planet;
all are limestone and boast a vari-
ety of rare formations. While most
havent been fully explored, there
are several caves throughout the
area that are open for the public to
experience and enjoy.
Wind Cave National Park and
Jewel Cave National Monument
are both managed by the National
Park Service, while the rest of the
caves found in the Black Hills are
privately owned. Jewel Cave is the
second longest cave in the world
and Wind Cave, boasting the
worlds largest collection of box-
work formations, was the first to
be designated a National Park.
Black Hills residents and visi-
tors are fortunate to have access to
a variety of caves that offer their
own unique geography, history and
interior formations. Because of the
incredible diversity amongst the
caves, particularly in the physical
conditions within each cave, it is
important for visitors to consider
their physical limitations. Some
cave experiences are more strenu-
ous than others; information about
physical conditions at each cave
can be found on the websites listed
below.
Whether you are interested in
the rare and famous boxwork for-
mations at Wind Cave National
Park or the variety of crystal for-
mations at Beautiful Wonderland
Cave, you will soon understand the
thrill that comes with discovery
subterranean wonders.
Perhaps you wish to stand
where early Lakota Native Ameri-
cans stood in Black Hills Caverns
or visit the site of the early Sioux
Indian Pageant that took place at
Sitting Bull Crystal Caverns in an
effort to help preserve Lakota her-
itage.
For those wanting a good cardio-
workout, the Wild Caving tour at
Jewel Cave National Monument
offers an extremely strenuous,
once-in-a-lifetime caving experi-
ence. Rushmore Cave not only of-
fers a crowd-pleasing cave experi-
ence, but has also recently added a
7-D Gunslinger Motion Theater
and Zip Line, both of which guar-
antee a fun experience for hard-to-
please crowds.

caves in the Black Hills, visit the

Classics and contemporary titles
will be the focus of the book group.
Use of audio books and e-readers
may also be available depending
on the selected book for the month.
On odd months a contemporary
book will be selected, on even
months a classic book will be se-
lected from a list of must reads
which is available on the Wall
Community Library website
(www.squidoo.com/wall-commu-

Discussion questions for each
book will be available on the web-

tured for July is A Walk in the
Woods by Bill Bryson. Bryson is a
writer who specializes in humor-
ous satire. He grew up in Iowa. In
this book he will take us on a spon-
taneous adventure of hiking the
Appalachian Trail. He is unfit,
overweight and never backpacked
in his life. How hard can this really
be he asks.
Check out this book at the li-

Now that the lawsuit is behind

the damage this law could do to
South Dakotas health care and in-

The oldest known lens was
found in the ruins of Nineveh
made from polished rock crystal.
Aristophanes the Greek mentions
in one of his plays, the use of such
a lens to burn holes in parchment,
while Pliny the physician used a
lens to cauterize wounds.
A thousand years later monks
started using "reading stones",
which were sliced off sections of
polished quartz spheres, and
sometime in the later half of the
1200s the monks put these read-
ing stones up on their noses and
called them spectacles.
It is no surprise that it was in
Venice, Italy where glassmaking
was (and still is) an art, that con-
vex reading or magnifying glasses
were refined.
About three hundred years
later, concave lenses were found to
help the near-sighted Pope Leo the
10th, who wore such spectacles to
aid him while hunting. It took just
about three hundred more years
for bifocals to be invented by
America's own Benjamin
Franklin.
It was in the mid 1800s that a
protective lens was made that fit
directly over the eyeball of a man
who had lost his eyelid from skin
cancer. This first "contact lens"
protected his eye from drying out
and resulting blindness.
Over the next 150 years contact
lenses came into commercial use
and moved from blown, to ground,

Gathered by Frances Poste
Tyler Keyser and Jacki Knepper
of Baldwin, Wisconsin, met Kirby
Keyser at Lake Oahe to fish for
walleyes in Tylers newly pur-
chased boat. Joining them later
was Stacy and her mom Cleo ac-
companied by Lenden Kjerstad.
Camping was fun and the fishing
was great!
As a lot of you know, two busi-
nesses in Wall have changed
hands recently. The Building Cen-
ter is now operating with Darwin
Haerer and his son Dar in charge.
The Food Center will still see Troy
and Gina Schulz working in the
store but the Kent Jordans have
bought the business. Other em-
ployees are also the same. Con-
gratulations to the new owners
and good luck in your endeavors.
Loretta White returned home on
the evening of June 30th after
spending some time in Casper. She
was helping Deanna Mitchell
move.
Gwen and Aby Hamilton of
Casper were visitors in her par-
ents home, Les and Kay Williams,
Monday through Wednesday last
week.
Norman and Betty Klingbile
have another great-grandchild.
Malori and Chris Tiegen have a
baby girl born on June 28th, Made-
lynn Lou. She joins an older
brother Tobyn. Gail and Wanda
Johnson are the grandparents.
Congratulations ot the family.
Frances Poste kept appoint-
ments in Rapid City on Wednesday
of last week. With a few hours in
between them, she spent some
time visiting Evleyn Kjerstad.
Evelyns scrabble board got some
use that day.
Hope the Wall Ambulance Serv-
ice did well with their fundraiser
on Saturday evening. I was there
early so hope more attended later
on. Jerry Johannesen showed
where there are sleeping quarters,
place to do laundry, etc. Very ac-
commodating!
Choke cherries are ripe! If you
want some, get a head of the birds.
Hear the harvest has started.
Good luck to those involved. It is
such a good feeling to have it out of
the field before some catastrophe
takes it.
Fourth of July is upon us. For
one thing certain it will be a hot
one. Just wonder how many of the
fireworks displays will be can-
celed. Is it worth the fire danger?
Be safe. We are luckier than some
states that, on top of the heat, are
also without power!
Mark and Darlene Poste had
been out to the place on Sunday
and stopped to visit Frances on
their way home. They were check-
ing trees they had planted.
Anita Peterson and Edith
Paulsen went to Rapid City on
Sunday, July 1st. They stopped at
New Underwood at the Good
Samaritan Home to see how Ber-
nice Anderson was doing. She is a
resident there now, as of last week.
The Wall Art Guild features an
artist at the First Interstate Bank

Kind of a busy week in Wasta.
Mary Lewis and Faye Bryan
were seen a lot in the park. By the
look of the park, they were work-
ing! It does look so nice. Thank you
all who put in their time there.
Great-grandson, Skyler Patter-
son and his mother Krystina ar-
rived Wednesday, the 27th of June,
for some time before and during
the family reunion held at the Old
Hotel at Wasta. We all get ready
for Wastas July 4th Celebration.
Relatives are pleased to come
enjoy Wasta and although this is a
small group, IT IS SO GOOD TO
BE WITH FAMILY.
Grenstiner girls did have a great
time at Storm Mountain Summer
Camp.
By this time next week we well
be saying thanks to all who partic-
ipated in Wastas July 4th, and we
really appreciate Dorothy Shearer
for her work in pulling together
the talent show.
We received word that Marilyn
Keyser is having a rough time of it
with her cancer battle. Keep her in
your thoughts and prayers.
The last visit with Anna Lee
Humphrey was a good one because
she was feeling up and looking
forward to coming to Wasta for the
doings.
We were sad to hear that Tuff E.
Nuff died June 29th. A great dog
who was just fun to be around!
Barb Crawford and Jerry Schell
were owned by Tuff since Febru-
ary, 2000. Maybe the thing about
Tuff that was endearing is he
seemed to like and be happy to see
everyone.
South Dakota - kind of feast or
famine. Last year it seemed there
werent enough hours to get all the
hay put up. This year? Well, the
winter was warm.
The morning sun about 5:00
a.m. was an amazing ball of deep
red orange in the sky. Incredible!
Wasta received a little rain.
Jerry Schell said half inch Thurs-
day (?) evening. Well, maybe Sat-
urday evening. Its pretty pathetic
when you cant remember what
day it rained in a time of drought,
or how to spell it (drought,
drought?)
Happy Trails!

The Quinn Golf Association has
completed its organization, and
starting Sunday, June 25 all play-
ers must have in possession a
membership card or pay green fees
at the rate of 25 cents for two play-

of Andrew Erickson, president; Al-
fred Johnson and Frank Conway,

On the new diamond northwest
of town, Wall won a tight game
with Milesville, Sunday, with a
score of 11 to 10.
Two new members of the Board,
J. T. Haynes and John Bielmaier,
and one old member, Henry Se-
bade won at the school election
held at the school house in Wall,
Tuesday. Although E. C. Smoot re-
ceived more votes than Bielmaier,
it is probable that the later will be
declared elected since the law calls
for two from the country. One hun-
dred forty-seven cast their votes
with three of their ballots thrown
out. Henry Sebade received the
highest number of 82 votes to his
credit, E. C. Smoot, 79; J. T.
Haynes, 79 and John Bielmaier,
60.
Wall lost their Sundays game to
the top-notcher of the West River
League, Murdo. Wall put up a stiff
fight but on account mostly of er-
rors they were unable to come out
winners. The final count was 7 to
3.

Hail did thousands of dollars of
damage to the crops at spotted
places throughout the best farm-
ing areas north of Wall during the
night of June 19. Winter wheat
and rye suffered the greatest dam-
age. Fosters, Campbells,
Naeschers, Mills, Cihaks, John
Bielmaiers, Osborne Kittermans,
Albert Winkowitschs, Anton Har-
nisch and Eggis Melrose were
some of the spots where much
damage was done. Heavy rains ac-
companied the hail and in a field
of heavy winter wheat of Oscar
Mills, the wind with this down
pour made the field look as though
it had been trampled over by an
army of soldiers and tanks. Sun
and dry weather has made this
field look much healthier. In the
town of Wall, itself, only a small
shower and no hail was recorded.
Ward Schwenks car, a 1941
Ford Coupe, which was stolen
June 10, was towed into Philip,
Sunday afternoon, after having
been found and identified near Ar-
vada, Wyoming, 470 miles from
Kadoka where it was taken by a
15-year old youth who escaped
from the state reformatory in
Plankinton, where he was serving
time for previous car thefts.
Leonel Jensen is town clerk
again, but only temporarily, he
says. Incumbent Jensen and
Elmer Klingbile were candidates
for the position at the town elec-
tion in April, but the vote was a tie.
A recount was made, and the elec-
tion was decided in Klingbiles
favor, who took office. But last
week he resigned to go to the west
coast, and the town board at a spe-
cial meeting appointed Jensen to
fill the vacancy. Jensen, who held
the post for many years prior to his
defeat, said he will serve until the
new filtration plant is in operation.

Kadoka Tuesday night to pick the
winner of the league.
The new Wall Drug Store addi-
tion appears to be very popular
with the tourists. It is being oper-
ated like a bazaar. Calling out, get
your foot-long hot dogs here was a
little too successful the first part of
the week as the hot dog stand ran
out of supplies early each day.

About 3,000 years ago
David wrote in Psalm
16:11: "...In Thy presence
is fulness of joy...." He was
right, for there is no greater
joy than personal fellow-
ship with God. Yet David
could not know the fulness
of joy now spoken of in
Paul's epistles, for he did
not know Christ, who later
came into the world as
God, manifested in the
flesh, to die for our sins. He
did not know that Christ
would make full satisfac-
tion for sin and be raised
from the dead to confirm
our justification. Nor did
David know that believers
would be given Christ's
resurrection life, and a po-
sition, and "all spiritual
blessings IN THE HEAV-
ENLIES in Christ"
(Eph.2:4-6; 1:3).
When Paul wrote that
God has called believers
"unto the fellowship of His
Son", he referred to a spir-
itual, heavenly fellowship,
far more intimate and pre-
cious than any previously
enjoyed by mortal man.
This fellowship is to be en-
joyed by faith, but it is faith
based on fact, the fact that
Christ indeed died our
death and rose again from
the dead that we might
partake of His life and
enjoy a position at God's
right hand in Christ. This is
why the Apostle Paul urges
believers of this dispensa-
tion of grace to "seek those
things which are above,
where Christ sitteth on the
right hand of God"
(Col.3:1).
Peter and John both
came to know much of this
fellowship through Paul,
who was sent to
Jerusalem "by revelation"
to make known to the lead-
ers there "THAT GOSPEL
WHICH I PREACH
AMONG THE GENTILES"
(See Galatians 2:2-9; II
Peter 3:15-18). This is why
John writes in I John 1:3,4:
"Truly our fellowship is with
the Father, and with His
Son, Jesus Christ. And
these things write we unto
you, THAT YOUR JOY
MAY BE FULL".

Prairie dog control programs available
Officials of the South Dakota
Departments of Game, Fish and
Parks and Agriculture are remind-
ing South Dakota ranchers and
producers to contact GFP or Agri-
culture if they have unwanted
prairie dogs.
The states prairie dog control
program is cooperatively funded
by GFP and Agriculture. GFP
manages encroachment issues
stemming from adjacent public
lands, while the Agriculture man-
ages complaints between private
landowners.
GFP will control prairie dogs
that have encroached private land
from adjacent public land, said
GFP Wildlife Damage Program
Administrator Keith Fisk. To be
eligible for assistance, landowners
must have prairie dog encroach-
ment within one mile of public
land and have at least 20 acres of
prairie dog colonies.
Additionally, landowners must
call in and inform GFP that they
have unwanted prairie dogs before
August 15. GFP provides assis-
tance to many landowners across
western South Dakota, said Fisk.
This deadline allows GFP suffi-
cient time to coordinate the logis-
tics of the prairie dog control pro-
gram.
Landowners with prairie dog en-
croachment from public land
should contact GFP at 605-773-
5913 to request control. GFP field
staff will coordinate the control of
the encroachment colony on the
private land this fall. All requests
for prairie dog control must be re-
ceived by the August 15 deadline.
Landowners that are experienc-
ing encroachment from adjoining
private land need to contact the
Department of Agriculture.
If the colony is encroaching from
private land, a signed written com-
plaint must be made. There are
two methods to file a complaint,
the first option is for the effected
landowner to sign a letter of com-
plaint and mail it to the local
County Weed and Pest Board.
The second method requires a
formal complaint (available by
calling 1-800-228-5254 or on the
Department of Agriculture website
at

The Pathfinder was lost. A
rolling sea of grass in what would
become South Dakota stretched
before John C. Frmont.
The young lieutenant had as-
sisted French explorer and mathe-
matician Joseph Nicollet in sur-
veying and mapping the land be-
tween the Mississippi and Mis-
souri rivers in 1838, and again in
1839. In 1839, soon after the U.S.
Army Corps of Topographical En-
gineers expedition set out from
Fort Pierre Chouteau, near what is
now Fort Pierre, it encountered a
herd of buffalo. When the hunt
ended, Frmont looked around for
his fellow hunters. None were in
sight. Frmont dismounted from
his tired horse and walked for hour
after hour.
Toward midnight I reached the
breaks of the river hills at a
wooded ravine and just then I saw
a rocket shoot up into the sky, far
away to the south. That was camp,
but apparently some 15 miles dis-
tant, Frmont wrote in his mem-
oirs.
A signal had been sent to the
lost man. Frmont decided to wait
for daybreak to find camp. Before
going to sleep, Frmont placed his
gun by his side in the direction
from which the rocket had been
fired.
At dawn, he saddled his horse
and began riding in the direction
indicated by the rifle. Frmont
soon saw three riders on horseback
approaching at full gallop.
They did not slacken their pace
until they came directly up against
me, when the foremost touched
Lost on the Dakota Prairie
me. It was Louison Freniere (a
guide accompanying the expedi-
tion.) A reward had been promised
by Mr. Nicollet to the first who
should touch me and Louison won
it. And this was the end of my first
buffalo hunt, Frmont wrote.
A historic marker about 15 miles
east of Pierre, off SD Highway 34,
states that in 1839 the nearby
river was called Medicine Knoll
River by Nicollet and Frmont,
who held a 4th of July pyrotechnic
display on the Medicine Knoll 12
miles up the creek.
Frmont, 1813-1890, was an ex-
plorer, soldier and political leader.
He led many surveying expedi-
tions in what is now the western
United States. He was dubbed
The Pathfinder by the tabloid-
style newspapers of the day. Fr-
monts reports touched off a wave
of interest in the West. Under Fr-
monts influence, American set-
tlers in California revolted against
Mexican authorities.
Frmont became the first Re-
publican candidate for president of
the United States. He was married
to one of the most desirable women
of the time Jessie Benton, the
daughter of powerful U.S. Senator
Thomas Hart Benton of Missouri.
The discovery of gold on Frmonts
property in California made him
rich.
But if Frmont knew the peaks
of glory, he also knew the valleys of
despair. He was court-martialed,
relieved of his command in the
Civil War, and lived much of his
later years in poverty.
June 28, 2012 -"The health re-
form law upheld by the Supreme
Court is a decision that protects
many important improvements in
the health care system," said
SDSMA President Robert L. Alli-
son, MD, an internist in Pierre.
"The SDSMA supports ending
coverage denials due to pre-exist-
ing conditions and lifetime caps on
insurance, and allowing the 2.5
million young adults up to age 26
who gained coverage under the
law to stay on their parents' health
insurance policies. The expanded
health care coverage upheld by the
Supreme Court will allow patients
to see their doctors earlier rather
South Dakota State Medical Association
optimistic regarding supreme court ruling
than waiting for treatment until
they are sicker and care is more
expensive. The decision upholds
funding for important research on
the effectiveness of drugs and
treatments and protects expanded
coverage for prevention and well-
ness care, which has already ben-
efited about 54 million Ameri-
cans."
"The health reform law simpli-
fies administrative burdens, in-
cluding streamlining insurance
claims, so physicians and their
staff can spend more time with pa-
tients and less time on paperwork.
It protects those in the Medicare
'donut hole,' including the 5.1 mil-
lion Medicare patients who saved
significantly on prescription drugs
in 2010 and 2011. These important
changes have been made while
maintaining our American system
with both private and public insur-
ers."
"The Affordable Care Act (ACA)
represents a step forward on the
path toward meaningful health
system reform. However, we do
not believe it is the last step but
rather only the beginning. The
SDSMA remains committed to
working on behalf of South
Dakota's physicians and patients
to ensure the law continues to be
implemented in ways that support
and incentivize better health out-
comes and improve the nation's
and state's health care system."
The SDSMA serves more than
2,000 members, including physi-
cians, members and medical stu-
dents who are dedicated to the
health of South Dakotans. The
mission of the SDSMA is to pro-
mote the art and science of medi-
cine, to protect and improve the
health of the public and provide
leadership and advocacy in the
field of quality health care. Learn
