Farmers Union youth participate inState Camp in the Black Hills
Young people from across theate of South Dakota participated
the South Dakota Farmersnion’s annual state camp June 2-2013, at Storm Mountain Cen-
r near Rapid City. Nearly 100uth ages 14-19 spent the weektting up their own cooperativesinesses, touring the Blacklls, listening to speakers and
arning leadership and various
e skills.“This year’s state camp was antraordinary time of learning asese young people participated inoperative business training andarned valuable leadership skillsat they will take with them fore rest of their lives,” said State
ducation Director Bonnie Geyer.he week features many activities
like hiking, sports and bonfires.There is also a tour day whereyouth go on tours in the RapidCity area. Speakers at this year’sstate camp included Sioux FallsStorm head coach and RooseveltHigh School teacher Kurtiss Riggswho spoke about leadership;Elaine Doll, a marathon runner inher 70s, who spoke to the youngpeople about personal motivation

RebeccaCaselli-Smith with Lutheran So-cial Services spoke to campersabout bullying and self-esteem.
Throughout the week, youngpeople run their own cooperatives.There’s the co-op store, newspaper,insurance company, and even a co-op coffee shop. Campers put realmoney into the credit union at thestart of camp to buy things fromthe co-op store and they get acheckbook. “These are real lifescenarios that they’re living outduring the week of camp,” Geyersaid. “The kids that go to StateCamp will be better preparedwhen they go to college and haveto balance their bank accounts.”
They are all on boards of direc-tors of their various cooperatives,take out loans, pay bills, and runa real business.

ardening by the Clock?Are you one of those that have inner clock that wakes you up6:00 a.m. no matter what day it
? Well, all plants, flowers or veg-ables, grown indoors or outdoorsve that internal clock that regu-
tes their life cycle processes. Itsensitivity to the waxing and
aning of daylight as the year pro-esses. This sensitivity is known
photoperiodism which deter-ines when they fruit, when theylt, or when they produce storagegans (think potatoes).Takato Imaizumi, University of ashington biologist, is uncover-g the mechanisms of the sea-nal calendar in plants. Almost living creatures, gardeners in-
uded, possess a powerful clock,nown as the circadian clock,hich controls many of life’socesses. Studies have shownat plants and animals don’t have
actually experience day andght to have regular wake/sleepnimals) or stiff leaf/relaxed leaf lants) cycles, prove that thisock is innate. Imaizumi explainsat “The circadian clock is notnstantly sensitive to light. Its a light sensitive window at thed of the day that acts as a gat-g mechanism. This process ishat determines of a plant is ang-day or a short-day plant.me plants are considered day-utral which are not affected byotoperiodism but by tempera-
res or maturity.The long-day and short-day de-rmination depends on latitude.
Day length at the equator is a con-stant 12 hours in all seasons whileat 50 degrees latitude the day canswing from about 8 hours in Janu-ary to 16 hours in June. The lati-tude of Bison is 45.520N whichhas a minimum of eight hours and42 minutes of daylight in mid-De-cember to a maximum of 15 hoursand 41 minutes of daylight in mid-June.
Onions are a crop whose lati-tude of origin is important. Youwill notice in seed catalogs thatonions are listed as long or shortday varieties. A variety that re-quires 14 hours of daylight wouldbe appropriate for South Dakotabut not for Florida.
The poor gardener, hoping for
perfection in a wide range of crops,has a lot to keep track of all thevariables: different light require-ments for different vegetables andeven the different varieties of thesame vegetable; radical differencein day length at different lati-tudes; and the fact that seasonalresponses in plants are not alllight-determined alone but can beadjusted by weather related fac-tors such as temperature andmoisture.
And you thought gardening wasa simple thing…….
My green thumb came only as aresult of the mistakes I made whilelearning to see things from the plant's point of view. ~ H. Fred Ale

By Gladys JacksonRachel Eggebo, President andandi Baysinger, Director of theson Area Economic Develop-ent met with the Bison Townoard on July 8 to give an update
current projects and to request
ntinued funding for the 2014dget. What they had to say wasetty impressive. This group hasen working hard for the better-ent of the Bison community;en the Rapid City Journal hasken notice by way of a story of eir latest project entitled ‘Ourood Deeds: Town paints home of -year old veteran’. You can readis story in the July 7th edition of e Rapid City Journal written byaudia Laws of the Journal staff.
he caught the story by readingout it on the Bison facebookge at www.facebook.comisonSD.The above referenced “Paintuth Dakota” project was com-eted with help from the South
Dakota Housing Authority, whoawarded the funds for the paintingsupplies. The house belongs to vet-eran and long time resident of Bison, Bob Hanson. This job wascompleted with the volunteer helpof some 20 area people interested
in helping out their community.Other projects completed thisyear by the Bison Area EconomicDevelopment include the newbusiness signs posted on the eastand west sides of Bison alongHighway 20. There are plans tolight these signs also. Go take adrive and check them out!
The third project completed re-cently is the newly designed Bisonwebsite, complete with a commu-nity calendar and classifieds. If you want to utilize either of these,give Brandi a call at the Develop-ment office (244-5726) and she willget it on the website. Be sure tocheck out the new site,www.bisonsd.com, there is even alisting of area attractions. Brandi
would like to enhance this websitecontinually and keep it updated,even list places for sale or rent.People new to the community orlooking to re-locate to the Bisoncommunity will have a place to getall their questions answered. If
you have information for the web-site or ideas, be sure to let Brandiknow. Brandi stated that havingthe Bison site connected with the All School Reunion facebook site,brought in a lot of new viewerswhich was great.
Director Baysinger stated thatshe is currently working on apply-ing for four grants, one to helpwith the training of staff in com-munity development, grant appli-cations, economic development,help to elevate existing staff to fulltime, and to purchase equipmentfor future office needs.
Another grant is for local infra-structure improvement to assistwith sidewalks and curb and gut-ter for existing and future resi-
dents and business owners as wellas improving streets.
Yet another is a jobs grant pro-gram to assist with future housingprojects.
But the one she is really excitedabout is the South Dakota SafeRoutes to School grant which is asidewalk project for the entire citylimits of Bison beginning withColeman Avenue. This would helpprovide a safe place for childrenand adults to walk to school andpromote more outdoor activitiesand wellness for the community byproviding a safe venue for resi-dents for walking. She asked thatthe Town Board incorporate thesidewalks into the upcoming redoof Coleman Avenue.
All of these grants are subject toState approval.

Another program is Stronger

But once again, the one programBrandi and Rachel are really ex-cited about is called the Commu-nity Foundation Program whichwould build a community reinvest-ment fund through SD Commu-nity Foundation to further projectsand activities in perpetuity.

Obituary
Gayla J. Brink, 59, of Rapid City,ssed away on Thursday, June 27,
13 at Rapid City Regional Hospi-l, surrounded by family andends.Born to Clifton and Beatriceea” Long, she grew up and grad-ted high school in Bison, South
akota. She married Lyle Brink in72 whom she raised her familyth in Rapid City, South Dakota.It is safe to say that the most im-rtant things in Gayla Brink’s life
ere family, friends, and most of , her dozen grandchildren. Youuld not have a conversation withayla without it involving anward someone received, an eventmeone was in, a recital sheeded to attend, or a story aboutmething adorable one of themd done. There were no favorites;e loved every single one of themually, and made every effort to at-nd every activity or event. She
would plan trips to places that shebelieved her grandchildren wouldlearn from and enjoy. Whenever sheand her husband Lyle would travel
without her grandchildren, she wasconstantly picking up brochuresand presents to share with them.She knew the likes, dislikes, andstrengths of every grandchild.
Friendships were like family toGayla. Her friendships ran deepand lasted as long. She alwayslooked forward to her annual gath-ering with “The Jewels”, specialfriends of hers from her days atBison High School. She was veryactive in the Beta Sigma Phi, Xi
Alpha Pi serv ice sorority and willbe very missed by her sisters.
If you were a family member orfriend of Gayla Brink, then youmost likely received a countlessnumber of thoughtful presents.Giving gifts to other people gave
Gayla joy. She was a professionalshopper. However, her purchaseswere usually not for herself, but forher family or friends she madethroughout her lifetime. She re-membered collections, birthdays,holidays, favorite colors, and evenpets. If she ran across somethingthat reminded her of someone,something her grandchildren wouldlike, something she just knew shecould find a home for, she wouldbuy it.
Gayla truly wanted to help peo-ple. Throughout her life, she wasinvolved in the Care & Share FoodDrive, The Salvation Army, The
American Heart Association, BoyScouts, Hospital Auxiliary, and asupporter of The Children’s MiracleNetwork. Giving of her time cameeasily to Gayla. She loved to learnand enjoyed helping others to learn
as well. To that end, she was in-volved in the Journey Museum andThe Questers. She also loved tocook and belonged to a gourmet-
cooking club. And how about those BEARS.
They were everywhere. When youentered the foyer of the Brinkhome, bears immediately sur-rounded you. Her collection wassecond to none. It was very difficultto give Gayla anything that had abear on it because she probably al-ready owned it.
The last few years found Gayla ina great deal of pain. That has endednow and she is safe.
She is survived by her husband,Lyle Brink of Rapid City; threesons, Derek (LaDelle) Brink of Reva, Zane (Trine) Brink of RapidCity, and Travis (Chandelle) Brinkof Box Elder; two brothers, Greg(Lori) Long of Spearfish and Ron
Ary of Harper, Kansas; one sister,Linda (Frank) Cervantez of Broom-field, CO; and 12 grandchildren.
Also surviving are many lovingnieces, nephews and in-laws. Gaylawas preceded in death by her par-ents.
Visitation was held from 5 - 7p.m. on Tuesday, July 2, 2013 atKirk Funeral Home and one hourbefore the services at the church.
Services were at 11 a.m. onWednesday, July 3 at First Presby-terian Church in Rapid City withthe Rev. Jeff Kintner officiating.Burial followed at Black Hills Na-tional Cemetery near Sturgis at2:30 p.m.
A memorial has been established.Family and friends may signGayla’s online guestbook atwww.kirkfuneralhome.com

Summer weather can providethe ultimate motivation to get out-side and be active. The sun is shin-ing, nature is in full blossom, andcoats and earmuffs are no longeressential. Summer can give peoplea certain zest for fitness, but some-times temperatures can turn goodintentions into a sweltering mess.Incorporating new habits and pre-cautions into your warm weatherworkouts can keep you safe, moti-vated, and cool. TOPS Club, Inc.(Take Off Pounds Sensibly), thenonprofit weight-loss support or-ganization, offers the followingtips to make the most of your sum-mer fitness plans:
1. Fill up on fruitWater-heavy fruits - like water-melon, cantaloupe, honeydew, andgrapes - are a great way to boostenergy and replenish fluids lostafter a workout. Containing morethan 80 percent water, these fruitsare easily digestible in the sum-mer heat and are a tasty way to
keep hydrated and satisfied. Eat-ing them frozen also makes a re-freshing summer treat.
2. Reroute for optimal shadeIf your usual running, walking, orcycling route makes you an easytarget for sun exposure, opt for ashadier course. Road RunnersClub of America features runningroutes around the country on theirwebsite, www.rrca.org. Weather.com also offers local parks’ fore-casts and a fitness comfort indexby the hour - ideal for determiningthe best time of day to exercise.
3. Incorporate the seasoninto your routineMake summer chores part of yourfitness plan for time-saving andwarm weather-friendly exercise.
Washing the car, gardening, tak-ing the dog for a walk, and mow-ing the lawn, are all activities onyour to-do list that burn calories
as a bonus.4. Pay attention to your
heart rateThe hotter it is, the harder yourbody has to work - so if you nor-mally run at a 9-minute-mile pace,when the temperature hits 90 de-grees, you may find yourself hav-ing to slow down to a 10-minute-mile. Using a heart-rate monitorcan help ensure that you aren’tpushing yourself too hard, whichcan lead to heat exhaustion andstrokes. Deluxe heart monitorskeep track of not only your heart,but also your speed, distance,pace, and calories burned. Modelswith fewer features can cost as lit-tle as $50.

ould cost approximately1,000. The bus now used wasven a trade in the value of 1,000 and has 80,000 miles on
it. A larger bus is needed for thestudents and their luggage whenon road trips. Crow will shoparound to find out what is avail-able. A larger bus to transport 65students could also be purchased.
Superintendent Azevedo isworking hard to fill the vacant po-sitions. An Athletic Director isneeded as well as coaches for foot-ball and for Girls and Boys Bas-ketball. Azevedo will also attend aFreshman Impact Event in Faithsponsored by the Sherrif ’s. Thepurpose of this event is to impactFreshmen with the reality of aDUI, Court and jail time for break-ing the law. She has almost com-pleted all the necessary paperwork to be a certified in SouthDakota as a superintendent andwill attend a “New Superinten-dent Conference”in Pierre soon.Some mold was found in the base-ment of the superintendent housethat will be examined and fixedsoon. Telephones at the schoolcan’t receive voice mail at thistime so that will be checked soon.
The High School Eligibility pro-posed policy change were dis-
cussed. Teachers ShawndaCarmichael and Joyce Matthewshave written a new policy that ad-vocates eligibility checks fourtimes a quarter. “It would help tomaintain consistency for studentsand teachers,”remarkedCarmichael. It’s a “Win, Win” ex-claimed Azevedo, “A studentshould be responsible for theirlearning.” She will implement aplan to check on teachers to keepup their grade books consistently.The policy actually means a stu-dent eligibility would be checkedtwice a month instead of once amonth. When checks were doneonce a month some studentshanded in no work until the check-ing date approached. That is not
teaching the students to be re-sponsible. The board heard thefirst reading and will hear the sec-ond reading in August before thepolicy is approved.
The next meeting is set to be Au-gust 12 at 7 p.m.

Bison is a small town whereeveryone helps one another.
James "Bob" Hanson, 94, hashelped more than his fair share.
"He's a great guy," said RachelEggebo, president of Bison Eco-nomic Development. "He's alwaysbeen here and if you needed help,Bob would help you. That's whoBob is."
Hanson was raised in the Bisoncommunity and returned to Bisonin 1971, where he served as thesheriff's deputy for more than 10years.
Hanson has not only served hiscommunity he also served hiscountry in World War II where hewas injured in a blast that killedhis driver. He was captured by theGermans where he was treated bydoctors who saved his life. Hespent nearly four years in a pris-oner of war camp. He received aPurple Heart for his service.
The town applied for and wasawarded funds for painting sup-plies from the South Dakota Hous-ing Authority's Paint-SouthDakota campaign.
Over two nights and one Satur-day, nearly 20 people volunteeredon site or bought food for the vol-unteers who trimmed Hanson'strees, painted his home andgarage, mowed his yard andhelped clean up his property.
"I feel like I'm the king of theroost," Hanson said. "They paintedmy garage first. I went to townand when I came back I almostdrove right by because I didn't rec-ognize it."
Hanson is very thankful thateveryone volunteered to help outas he has a few health issues andhis "balance is plum gone."
"They done such a super job onit, some very professional. Therewere a lot of people that donatedtheir time with a paintbrush."
Bob lost his wife in 2002, and hehas outlived all three of his sons.However, he still smiles easily andlaughs often, the Bison Area Eco-nomic Development Committeewrote on their grant application.
"Bob has been just an iconic in-dividual in our area for many,many, many years and there is noone more deserving than him,"Eggebo said. "We're so thankful wecould do this for one of the greatestmembers of our community."

New control availableor Leafy SpurgeWhen Leafy Spurge's yellowwers begin to bloom, landownersn evaluate the effectiveness of eir control program, says Paulhnson, SDSU Extension Agron-
my Field Specialist."If you have been doing a good job
control in the past, it may be atle slower and, if you have beening a really good job, there mayen be fewer plants out there thanst year," Johnson said.He adds that the only way to geturge under control is to be on itery year and get the root reservespleted so the plants will start to
die."A cold winter helps to take out
the spurge when the root reserveshave been depleted," Johnson said."As soon as the yellow flowers areout it is time to start spraying."
Johnson says the control window
is only about one month beforethere will be viable seed in theplant.
"If you also have thistles in withthe spurge you may want to wait alittle until thistles are at bud tomake sure you get good coverageand control on both of the weeds,"he said.
But again, Johnson says be care-ful not to wait too long.
"Waiting too long only allows theroot reserves to build back up in theplant, and then you will not makeany progress on getting rid of theplants. Instead, they will come backstronger than ever," he said.New Control Tools Available
Based on SDSU test plots inMoody County a new compoundcalled Perspective® looks like itshould be as good as Tordon® incontrolling Leafy Spurge, but John-son says this compound has feweruse-restrictions; and it is more en-vironmentally friendly.
"It should be able to be used inmore areas that have a shallowground water problem," he said."This is the first new product thathas effect on thistles and spurgethat has been developed in the last40 years."
At present, Perspective is not la-beled on any areas that are croppedor hayed, Johnson says until morelabeling is done, it will be limitedon where it can be used. Also somegrass injury will need to be toler-ated with its use.
"Usually the grass will recover
the next year," he said. "And, I al-ways want readers to know thatuse of the product's names does notimply endorsement. Information isbased on SDSU research and obser-vations."
Before use, landowners need toverify information on current prod-uct labels prior to application.
Grazing mineral nutrition for beef
With the recent moisture thatmuch of South Dakota received,grass is growing and many cattlehave been moved to summer pas-ture. With that move and changein feed, ranchers need to be aware
of the nutrient requirements of their livestock and ensure they areall being met, including energy,protein, minerals, vitamins andwater. Although all these elementsare important to overall herdhealth, growers need to pay partic-ular attention to meeting theirherd's mineral needs, says AdeleHarty, SDSU Extension Cow/Calf Field Specialist.
"During the months in whichanimals are grazing, deficienciesin any of these nutrients can causenegative effects on animal produc-tion. In reality, all nutrients inter-act, and deficiencies in mineralnutrition can create deficiencies inavailability of other nutrients,even if those nutrients are ade-quate in the diet," Harty said.
As plants mature, mineral con-tent changes such that phospho-rus and potassium decrease, butnot at an equal rate across allplant species, as this decrease isless pronounced in legumes thangrasses. Harty explains that min-eral content of grasses and forbs isinfluenced by mineral content of the soil, plant species, and plantmaturity. Legumes, such as alfalfaand clovers, tend to be higher incalcium, magnesium, and potas-sium, as well as iron, copper, zinc,and cobalt than grasses.
"In general, calcium levels areadequate in forages, while phos-phorus levels tend to be low and
often inadequate, especially in ma-ture forages," she said. "In regardsto potassium, these levels tend tobe excessive, while magnesiumlevels can be deficient, especiallyin lush, rapidly growing pastures."
Basically, Harty says that a"one-size fits all" mineral packagerarely meets the needs of the live-stock depending on plant diversity,soil mineral content, plant matu-rity and supplemental feeds.
"There can be a measurable dif-
ference within a pasture, let aloneacross an entire ranch or state,"she said.
Table 1 shows the difference intwo mineral supplements and howthey can vary from eastern South
Dakota to western South Dakota.Table 2 shows the seasonality dif-ferences in a mineral supplementfor an eastern South Dakotaranch, with forage type beingrange in the summer and cornstalks in the winter.
Mineral interactions also com-plicate the issues. Harty points toone of the more common and chal-lenging mineral interactions thatoccurs particularly in westernSouth Dakota where there is athree-way interaction between sul-fur, molybdenum, and copper.
"Many soils in South Dakota arehigh in molybdenum while waterand by-product feeds can be highin sulfur. This results in copperbeing tied up and unavailable forabsorption by the animal," Hartysaid.
Copper is one of the key nutri-ents for reproduction and immu-nity, therefore an adequateamount of copper needs to beavailable in the mineral supple-ment to overcome this interaction.Harty directs cattle producers tothe following article on iGrow.org:http://igrow.org/livestock/beef/is-that-a-copper-deficiency/.
Because off-the-shelf mineraland salt products are formulatedto meet generalized conditions,Harty says it is often beneficial tocreate a custom-blended mineralformula to meet localized deficien-cies or toxicities of a specific ranch
and the needs of that ranchthroughout the year."Developing a custom mineral
formulation has many potentialadvantages, including avoiding ex-cess mineral feeding, which re-sults in less environmental con-tamination, more opportunity toprevent or overcome interactionsand antagonisms, prevent toxicity,and save money," Harty said."There is a substantial upfronttime and money investment, but

A nice rain Sunday gave every-e here a break from the hayfield.dumped .84 hundredths out of e rain gauge, and for once Iven’t heard of anyone getting
ore moisture than we did! Thein was spotty, Jim Bingamanid he didn’t get any at his place
utheast of us and only had a lit- shower west of his buildings.unday afternoon Iver Heier wasying along the highway just
est of Prairie City, so they didn’tt much there either.My father’s cousin, Lesteromberg, took some of us down toe Slim Buttes to revisit some oldmily homesteads. Lester’sughter Bonnie and Rick Root re-ntly came from California andught a house north of White-ood. Lester’s son, Wade andnet Blomberg, were visiting
om Trabuco, California, so weked Lester and Arlene to show
where our ancestors used toe.Rick had never been to JB Rock
d Deb Wammen gave us permis-on to follow the trail to the sitehere the Calvary was stationedring the Indian scare back in90. We found the crossed swordsignia and soldiers’ names thatere carved into the rock. We alsound the names of several old
neighbors that grew up aroundhere. Don Baker and Leah (Vro-man) Phillips went to school withmy father at the old Rock RanchSchool that my great grandfatherCarl Hallan built just north of Blair Hamilton’s ranch and theirnames are carved in the stone not
far from where Lester and hismother, Bessie (Hallan) Blombergcarved their names many yearsago.
From JB Rock we traveled eastto Lynn and Connie Weishaar’spasture. Lynn and Harlan Sielerwere working near the gate intothe pasture so we were able to talkwith them. Harlan knew wherethe sites were that we were look-ing for. He helped us find thehomestead of Hans Dvergsten, acousin of our great grandmother,Caroline (Kjos) Hallan, and fromthere Harlan guided us to wherethe sod house of our great grand-parents, Carl and Caroline Hallanonce stood.
We found the smokehouse
Grandpa Carl built into a nearbyhillside and the bulb-shaped rockcistern that he hauled water tofrom a nearby live creek. An oldstove was covering the cistern andwhen Wade and I dragged it off toexamine Grandpa’s handiwork, wediscovered a live porcupine had
settled underneath it. Since noneof us had a gun, we put the stoveback over the irritated pin cushionand left it alone!
Both my grandfather ClemWhite and my grandmotherManda (Hallan) White home-steaded just east of Manda’s par-
ents’ house around Flat Top Butte,where my father, Bryce White, andhis sisters, Claire John and MaryHaggart were born. Their home-steads are in Hotchkiss’s pasture,but we ran out of time so we didn’tventure out that far. I want tothank our wonderful neighbors forletting us roam through their pas-tures in search of our history. Welive in the greatest place on earth!
The men spent IndependenceDay in the hayfield while Casey’skids went to Gardner Lake and Idrove to Belle Fourche for the pa-rade. Walt Kolb hauled methrough the parade in his classic1923 Oldsmobile while it rained onour parade! We were near the be-ginning of the parade so Walt
parked under the canopy over thepumps at a gas station to watchthe rest of the parade in relativecomfort.
After the parade I drove toWhitewood for lunch with Rickand Bonnie Root at their newhouse. Lester and Arlene were
there, along with Wade and JanetBlomberg and Koreen and Chuck Anderson. Most of the Blombergswent to the Roundup rodeo thatevening, but since it hadn’t rainedat home I skipped the rodeo andheaded back to the ranch to seehow the haying was progressing.
Louise Jenson had a message onmy answering machine when I gothome with the sad news that ourgood friend, Mary Lou (Reitz)Mollman had passed away thenight before. Mary Lou and herfamily were at Bowman HaleyDam to watch the fireworksWednesday evening when she suf-fered an apparent heart attack.Her funeral will be Tuesday inBowman with burial to follow inthe Vessey Cemetery. Mary Louwas a wonderful, caring womanand she will be sorely missed.
Sen. Maher was also in the BelleFourche parade and told us thathis grandpa Maher died June 30thin Lemmon. Services for Joseph"Mickey" Maher, age 85, were held
Saturday, in Morristown. Mickeyis survived by his Donna of 62years, 12 children, 42 grandchil-dren; 33 great-grandchildren.
