new workout center may be just on the horizon, according to Suzie Reuther, a member of the Hettinger City Council. For months, the City of Hettinger has been working with West River Health Services and Hettinger Public School to create a new wellness center/gym in the Hettinger Armory. Reuther said she hopes to have the new wellness center up and running by Dec. 1. Reuther said the city took on the project after completing a 2015 feasibility study. The study found that a majority of locals want more recreational opportunities in town. Although Hettinger already has a wellness center, the City wanted to create a high quality area that had workout equipment in a more accessible setting. “People that work at the hospital’s fitness center feel like they have so many complaints because nobody can use their equipment because of the stairs,” she said.“[The Armory Fitness Center] should be easy to get access to.” The new gym located in the L room of the Armory has made considerable progress. New carpet was laid and an intermediate wall was removed to create more space. The City also installed a new key fob system to both the front and back doors of the Armory for easy entry. Along with renovations, the city has already purchased the new equipment for the center. Using sales tax funds, the City purCENTER » PAGE 3

was going on.” Ultimately, Andress said she chose Dickinson State University because it’s a smaller, more personal college that’s close to her hometown of Hettinger. “I like the fact that you know your professors and you know most of the students,” she said. Locally, Andress is involved in many high school athletics, including volleyball, track, and basketball. Throughout her high school ath-

letic career, Andress has played four years of varsity volleyball, five years of varsity basketball, and six years of varsity track and field. Andress is also the current volleyball team captain. Athletics, she said, played a big role in her decision to become a Blue Hawk. “Since I was little, I’ve wanted to do sports in college,” she said. “It’s always been a dream of mine.” Even though she is

only months into her senior year, Andress already has an accomplished high school athletic career. Just recently, Andress became the first Hettinger Public School athlete to score over 1,000 career points for both basketball and volleyball. Her most notable achievements include being a nominee for All State Volleyball in 2018, finishing 4th place at the Girls State B ANDRESS » PAGE 2

his year’s harvest season has been unusually tough on local producers. Ceaseless rains and snowstorms have caused many headaches for farmers across the southwest North Dakota region. Although producers don’t usually wish away the rain, this harvest season has been nothing but unusual. This year’s September was the rainiest September on record for the entire state of North Dakota, according to

Expect High-moisture Corn at Harvest Submitted By HANNAH NORDBY

he recent snow storm resulted in a killing frost, ending corn development in Adams County. What does this mean for producers and the corn out in the country side waiting to be harvested? According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service, 84% of corn in North Dakota had reached full dent on Oct. 6, which likely will result in corn with a test weight of 50 to 53 pounds per bushel and a moisture content of 35% to 45%, according to Ken Hellevang, North Dakota State University Extension agricultural engineer and grain drying expert. Only about 22% of the corn had reached maturity on that date, and that corn probably will have a test weight of about 56 pounds per bushel and a moisture content of about 30%. "It is important to check each field because these values will vary depending on planting date, corn maturity rating and growing degree days during the year,"Hellevang says. "For the 18 states producing the majority of the corn in the U.S., only 58 percent of the corn was mature on Oct. 6." The amount of drying in the field depends on parameters such as corn maturity, hybrid, moisture content, air temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation and wind

speed. Corn growing degree days have been used to predict the rate of field drying, but they do not consider all the drying parameters. Another predictor of the drying rate is potential evapotranspiration (PET), which is based on parameters similar to those that affect drying. Values for PET are available on the North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network website at http://ndawn. ndsu.nodak.edu. About 1 inch of potential evapotranspiration results in about 4 percentage points of corn field drying. Standing corn in the field may dry about 2.5 percentage points per week in North Dakota during October, assuming normal weather conditions, and about 1 percentage point per week during November. Corn at 35% moisture content on Oct.11 might be expected to dry to about 27% by Nov. 1 and about 22% by Dec. 1, Hellevang says. Therefore, corn moisture content at harvest likely will be in the mid-20% range this year. The current forecast is for the minimum temperature to be in the 20s in the western portion of the Dakotas and Nebraska on Oct. 11 and below freezing for the Dakotas and Nebraska on Oct. 12, but Minnesota and Iowa are forecast to stay just above freezing. The Oct. 14-18 temperature is predicted to be much below normal across the Corn Belt, with a tendency for above-normal

precipitation for Oct. 16-22. "If these forecasts are accurate, the amount of field drying will be reduced,"Hellevang cautions. Iowa State University has a field dry-down model that may be helpful. Do an internet search for Iowa corn dry-down calculator. It estimates that if corn is at 35% moisture on Oct. 11, it will, on average, dry to about 22% on Oct. 30. Field drying normally is more economical until mid to late October and mechanical high-temperature drying normally is more economical after that, Hellevang notes. Field drying is extremely slow during winter months and corn will dry only to about 20% moisture content based on the equilibrium moisture content for the average monthly air temperature and relative humidity conditions in North Dakota. Corn that remains in the field during the winter may dry from 25% to 30% moisture in November and to 17% to 20% when harvested in February and early March. Corn losses will depend on stalk strength, ear shank attachment to the stalk, winter conditions and wildlife. Accumulated winter snow adds water to the soil as it melts. Plus, standing corn shades the ground, which reduces drying and may lead to wet fields in the spring, so consider harvesting the corn before the ground thaws. Natural-air and lowtemperature drying are limited to initial corn moisture contents of about 21%. Even at that moisture content, air drying is limited in the northern states due to the colder outdoor temperatures in late October and November. The moisture-holding capacity of air is very small at temperatures below about40 F. Expect to store the wet corn for the winter by cooling it to 20 to 30 F and finishing the drying in the spring when outside temperatures average above 40 F. Provide an airflow rate of at least 1 cubic foot per minute per bushel (cfm/bu) to complete the drying before corn deterioration affects the market quality. The required fan size to provide the needed airflow can be determined using a fan selection program. Do an internet search for NDSU grain drying and storage to access a fan program. The midportion of the corn-producing states will have a more rapid field dry down due to the warmer temperatures, Hellevang says. Naturalair drying also is more feasible there due to the warmer November temperatures. For example, corn reaching maturity in Nebraska on Oct. 11 is expected to dry in the field to about 21% on Oct. 30. The average November temperature in Nebraska is about 40 F, so air drying likely is feasible in November. However, with an airflow rate of 1 cfm/bu, drying may not be completed in November. High-temperature corn drying may face challenges with high-moisture

corn. The kernel color of immature corn may be affected during drying due to sugars still being in the kernel. Reduce the dryer temperature to reduce the potential for affecting the kernel. Hellevang also warns that corn at moisture contents above about 23% may have enough surface moisture on the kernels that the kernels freeze together and will not flow. For more information on high-moisture corn drying and storage, contact your Adams County Extension Agent Hannah Nordby by phone: 701-590-4071, email: Hannah.nordby@ ndsu.edu, or stop by the office!

Basketball Tournament, and placing 8th in the triple jump at the 2018 state track meet. Although she is pursuing college athletics through track and volleyball, assuming she finds time, Andress said she hopes to play basketball recreationally in college. “I love basketball, but I feel like between volleyball and track I might get busy,” she said. “If I find time to play recreational basketball, I definitely will. College, however, isn’t just athletics. In addition to athletics, Andress is involved in many nonathletic extracurricular activities, including involvement in HOSA, Academic Olympics, Quiz Bowl, FBLA, Student Council, the Drug and Alcohol Coalition, Mock Trial Team, and Nighthawk Leadership

Council and much more. Moving forward, Andress plans to join the health field and pursue a nursing degree. She said that she also eventually plans to attend physician assistant school. “I’ve always wanted to do something medical,” said Andress. When asked whether she will return to Hettinger after college, she replied, “I really don’t know yet, but it’s definitely an option. I have a lot of family here, so we’ll see.” Although Andress is looking forward to college, she said she excited to see what lies ahead during her senior year of high school. “I am very excited for college,” she said. “I am eager to see what the future holds for me, but I plan on enjoying high school and making the most of what time I have left. My teammates and I have a lot left to accomplish yet this year.”

chased two new elliptical machines, a new NuStep machine, and a new treadmill. Once finished, the center will have a combination of new machines and used, donated machines. “When all is said and done, we should have three ellipticals, three treadmills, a NuStep, a stationary bike, and free weights” said Reuther. Moving forward, Reuther said the City still has many logistics to work out at the next city council meeting. There, the City will vote on the rules, conditions, and details for the wellness center. Although nothing has been formally decided, Reuther said that the City is currently working with Personal Trainer Keith Jackson to move his business to the new center. The City also plans to work out details for membership and pricing at next week’s meeting. Reuther said that after researching other wellness centers pricings in the area, she plans to suggest a $45 a month fee for use of the new facility while offering deals for longer-term commitments to the center, however nothing is yet set in

stone. Reuther said she is hopeful that, with memberships, the new fitness center will provide a source of income for the Armory. “We need to generate some form of income to keep the building up, because the Armory does not have any type of separate account, so it all comes out of our general fund,” said Reuther. “So everything that we pay for, whether that be electricity or upkeep, either we have to put aside certain tax dollars to help it or we just take it

out of our general fund. We are just trying to build things that make [the Armory] become self-efficient.” Moving forward, the City is hoping to raise an additional $40,000 for the wellness center, however Reuther said that opening of the wellness center is not conditional upon reaching that goal. The money would be used for amenities like automatic lights, air conditioning units, and showers. Reuther said that she is determined to have the new center open by Dec. 1.

“This is going to start December first no matter what we have for funding,” said Reuther. “It will be ready to go, but it just won’t have A/C or automatic lights.” Ultimately, Reuther said that she is looking forward to making the Armory Fitness Center a reality. “I look forward to helping the community because this is what we have been told that people really would like to see and want.”

November, and the region should see less precipitation. “Typically, as we head into the winter months, our precipitation chances drop,” he said. “October and November are typically our driest months because we are getting out of the summer time pattern. It gets colder so the air can’t hold as much moisture.” November’s historic average precipitation in the region totals .5 inches for the entire month. Assuming condition do not change, Hamilton said the prediction outlook maps from the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center indicate an equal chance for above and below levels of precipitation in November. “There are equal chances for precipitation over North Dakota, but Bowman and Adams County are close to the above normal area, but again there are no strong

signals for the one month outlook” said Hamilton. “Things can always change, but we should be entering a period with less precipitation.” In addition to normal rain conditions, the outlook maps also call for a slight chance for above average temperatures in days ahead. So what’s average for November? Early in the month, the historic data shows average highs in the 40’s and lows in the 20’s. By the end of the month, the average temperatures drop to highs in the 30’s and lows in the 10’s. More broadly, overall conditions are pointing to a neutral winter. Although pinning down a long-range prediction is difficult, Hamilton said there are currently no influences from El Nino or La Nina affecting the region. “Long range, there is no real strong signal for a warmer, drier, wetter, or colder winter across the Northern Plains,” he said.

Lab-Learner Laboratory The Lab-Learner Laboratory has been delivered and set-up. The elementary teachers received professional development on how to utilize the curriculum on September 4th early out. We are waiting for the arrival of the student workbooks before digging into the program; the student materials have been shipped.ND Insights-Accountability reports can be found at https://insights.nd.gov//Education/ District/01013. There is copious amounts of information found on the website. North Dakota Department of Public Instruction (NDDPI) will release the new accountability reports by the end of the month on the website. We are going through to determine if information is correct, so far everything looks in line to what student reports indicated last spring. Math scores grew 2 points, but we did not maintain in the high achievement quadrant, and our ELA dropped 5 points, but we did maintain high achievement scores. The elementary has three areas of measurement: NDSA Achievement, NDSA Growth, and Student Engagement Survey; the high school and junior have additional measures of: Graduation Rates and Choice Ready data. Our composite performance still has not been released, so it is unclear if we met our goal since we excelled in areas and had some struggles in some areas; however, districts that need improvement have been released and we are not an identified school for improvement. I feel that our struggles were not in the material as much as they were in understanding what questions were asking; I also feel that we are taking steps to make sure our students are better prepared for these high stake assessments.LEA Compliance-The LEA Compliance report coming up needs school board approval; these are the regulations that Mr. Seamands and I ensure the district is meeting educational century code.Survey-I did send out the information that I received from the state and other districts to director emails; there is a lot of information to process. The prevailing opinion in informal conversations is that the waiver is reliant on what happens on the “bonus” days. I think that parent/teacher conferences would be a good time to get feedback from our community who have students in school currently; Mr. Janikowski is able to set up an online survey to fill out that night. If the board would like to take a sample that night I would suggest a survey with limited, but specific questions to gauge the interest of the community. Secondary Principal Report:Student Engagement Survey – The survey window for the 2019-2020 school year is October 15th until December 6th. Students in grades 3-12 will take the survey. This is a statewide survey that allows the students to voice their ideas and concerns so that schools can make their learning more successful.NWEA Testing – We test grades 2 – 11 in Reading, Math, and Language Arts. Elementary teachers are currently using the practice test windows with their classes in order

to prepare the students for their actual tests. We will begin testing at the end of September. NDSA testing has been moved to the spring. Freshman Impact – Once again, this event is in Bowman. Mrs. Olson will take all of the 9th graders with Mrs. Hanson driving the bus.Temple Grandin – Mrs. Schauer was able to take 13 students to Beach on September 12th to listen to a presentation by Temple Grandin. According to the students that I have been able to speak with it was a good presentation.October Early-Out – For the October PD we are working with the Adams County Sheriff’s Office and West River Ambulance on active shooter training. In addition, we have had our first fire drill and will have three more throughout the year; we hope to include the Hettinger Fire Department in one of these drills.

After a couple rough patches, patrons have accepted they have to show their activity tickets to actually get in free. It is all running smoothly. Football Field: Food for thought. I would like to have Weston Ginther come in and do an audit?? of the football field sprinkler system and see if there is anything we need to upgrade. Of course, this would not be done until the spring. I would need administration and board approval to go ahead with this. Co-Op Meeting: We do have our fall co-op meeting coming up at the end of November. I just wanted to make aware a conversation Kelly Pierce and I had at the beginning of the year. We will be having a conversation about purchasing an enclosed trailer for the co-op in order to transport equipment easier. It will free up bus space, and actually allow us to travel with less buses when we go somewhere for football or track. NDHSAA is providing a affordable concussion insurance to ND schools, which will provide coverage to all students in all activities run by the school. The resignation of Head Track Coach, Kelly Pierce was received by the sports coop starting with the 2019-2020 school year. AD’s from both schools will advertise the position and the other coaching positions still open. Education Improvement Report: No Report Student Council Report: Homecoming activities are being planned by the HS Student Council. The homecoming theme for the year is a Hollywood theme. To go with the them the students have planned the dress up days accordingly.

Other activities planned are a pep rally which will include a lip sync from each class and various other competitons. During homecoming week the classes will be responsible to prepare posters for the volleyball and football games; decorating their portion of the hallways in the high school area and a float for the parade. Unfinished Business: New Business: Moved by Buckmier, seconded by Kindsfater to accept the 2019-2020 LEA Compliance Report presented by Superintendent Moser. Motion carried unanimously.

legals Published in the Adams County Record Nov. 1, 2019 PUBLIC NOTICE AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING The City of Hettinger plans to submit a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) applicationto the State of North Dakota, Division of Community Services (DCS).

DEAN MEYER Guest Columnist

Hello,

You know there is a saying I often heard about cowboys. “Everyone wants to be a cowboy, until they have

to do cowboy ….”. You can fill in the blanks. The editor doesn’t let me say it. I guess that was never truer than a deal last week. My make believe friend, Shannon and I were at the local livestock sale. You know Shannon. He’s the guy I partnered on the dollar bull with. He’s the guy that, when we partnered on a couple bulls, we played poker for the best bull. I won and then when we were branding his, it kicked him in the belly and tore his shirt off. He wouldn’t let me

Your community's views

take a picture but then showed his cut belly to all the people in a bar later that day. He’s funny that way. We have had several adventures together. He usually comes out ahead. Anyhow, we were at the sale. I had purchased four bulls before he got to the sale. He heard about this deal and wanted in on the action. So, for a small profit, I traded him one of the bulls. When we went to load them , they were plumb gentle. I have never seen such wellbehaved bulls. They wouldn’t take a mean

step. I guess that kind of lulled us to sleep. After sorting the best bull out, we went to load it in the front of his trailer. Beings it was gentle, Shannon just stood alongside the trailer door, rather than hiding behind it. Evidently this bull had been jockeyed around the sales yard long enough and decided he had been through enough. Without any warning he suddenly took Shannon. Now I wouldn’t say Shannon is fat and slow, but he is getting a little long in the tooth and may have lost a step or two over

the years. And his back was against the fence and the bull was only a step away. That old bull hit Shannon and threw him higher than the yard fence. Which is about six feet tall. He did a complete flip in the air and came down hard on the concrete. It was not a perfect landing. His head was bleeding and one leg wasn’t working. I would have liked to help, but much like the time the bull kicked him, I was laughing too hard to be of much help. I think the bull was embarrassed that he had done such

a thing. After flipping and crippling Shannon, he walked calmly onto the trailer. It’s been a few days now and I guess he will be laid up for six weeks or so. In the meantime, he can practice up on his pinochle. “Everybody wants to be a cowboy. Until they have to do cowboy stuff!”

planned to attend, but also backed out because of the weather. The movie “Unplanned” will be shown at the Grand Electric social room on Sunday, November 3rd at 3:00 in the afternoon. We plan on attending because this anti-abortion movie sounds like it will be very interesting. Amanda took her Stella Marie boutique items to Bison for the Christmas Fair on Saturday and they had a pretty good crowd. Some of our local kids placed in the state cross country meet in Huron this week. Seventh grader Bailey Verhulst placed 31st, seventh grader Jozi Schuchard placed 33rd for her personal best, Will Burkhalter took 91st, Kiley Schuchard placed 93rd,Jarett Schuchard placed 105th, and Prairie City’s Jonathan Burkhalter took 2nd place! We have a lot of fast kids in this area. Congratulations to them all! Linda Mohagen wasn’t in church this Sunday because she took her puppets to the Methodist church in Bow-

man for their fall festival. Next Sunday will be the Bible Character reenactment at Slim Buttes Lutheran Sunday School. Halloween is this Thursday and Pastor Henry Mohagen shared this Halloween joke with us in church Sunday morning: Two men were walking home after a Halloween party and decided to take a shortcut through the cemetery just for laughs. Right in the middle of the cemetery they were startled by a tap-tap-tapping noise coming from the misty shadows. Trembling with fear, they found an old man with a hammer and chisel, chipping away at one of the headstones. “Holy cow, Mister,” one of them said after catching his breath, “You scared us half to death — we thought you were a ghost! What are you doing working here so late at night?” “Those fools!” the old man grumbled. “They misspelled my name!”

Later, Dean

Reub and I went to Hettinger Monday morning for my physical therapy and to get the staples taken out of my knee after my knee replacement surgery. While we were there, Reub got another shot of “rooster juice” in his bad knee and that didn’t work so well for him this time like it had the several other times he’s gotten the shot. I’m getting around fairly well, but now Reub’s knee is in worse shape than mine! Casey and Taz, RonE and Jace Jenson, and Doug and

Clint Doll helped Bill Holt wean his calves on Monday and take them back up to the home place. Casey hauled both loads of the calves home for Bill in his semi, but barely made it through the mud with the first load in the morning so he didn’t haul the second load until late that afternoon after it had dried up some. We got an inch and 62 hundredths of rain this week, so it’s pretty muddy everywhere. I had planned to go to Belle Fourche Tuesday evening to attend the meeting with the politicians from Districts 28 and 29, but my knee decided I should stay home. Sen. Ryan Maher had eye surgery in Rapid City that day and Rep. Sam Marty had an appointment at Fort Meade so they both went since they were already down that way. Rep. Tom Brunner, Rep. Kirk Chaffee, and Sen. Gary Cammack were also there so it would have been a very interesting meeting. We lost another old friend this week. Ralph Kriege, 76, of Spearfish

passed away on Tuesday. His funeral was Saturday morning at the Lutheran Church of the Cross in Bismarck. Biff was married to my friend Alyce Loftsgaard and was the youngest child of Bob and Irene Kriege from Buffalo. Bob was the trapper in Harding County for years and did a wonderful job. Our sympathy goes out to Ralph’s family. Bill Johnson was supposed to have shoulder surgery this Monday, but his surgeon got sick so Bill’s surgery will be at least a week later. Laura Johnson did get her knee replaced in Rapid City on Thursday as scheduled. Their son Brad told me that she got home from the hospital on Saturday and is doing pretty well. Dennis Hathaway called me again this week to see how my knee was doing and he told me that his sister Bonnie is going to have her knee replaced soon. I wonder what’s up with all the bad knees around here? The hay grinder was here Thursday morning and Taz went to help Sage with a

carpenter job while Casey helped grind hay. Casey and Missy went in to the football game in Buffalo that afternoon to watch Harding County beat Dupree. Reub and I went back to Hettinger Friday afternoon for my physical therapy and Reub’s doctor’s appointment and his appointment with Mary Eggebo. While Mary was working Reub over, I went to the school to read with our granddaughter Ellarie in first grade. Alaina didn’t work that day and she came to the reading too. That was fun. Ellarie is a very good reader! Bill Holt, Doug and Clint Doll, Andy and Donella Elshere, and Casey and Taz went up to help RonE and Jace Jenson ship their calves Friday morning. It was snowing and nasty on Saturday so we didn’t go to the Bella Gala for Life Banquet that evening in Spearfish like we’d planned. We would have loved to listen to Alan Keyes speak, but the roads were just too icy for us to be out on them. Several folks from Bison also

Football Playoffs SHELDON CHRISTENSON FOR THE RECORD

n the 9-Man first round playoffs I went 2 & 2 in my predictions. I had Linton and Kidder Co. winning and Kidder Co. did win over Surrey, 24-12, and Kidder County over Mohall-Lansford-Sherwood,

37-8. I had Beach and Grant Co. losing but Beach downed Central McLean, 8-0, and Grant Co. surprisingly easily handled Ray-Powers Lake, 48-6. All four Region 4 teams made it to the quarterfinals. Parker Hager had a big day in Kidder County’s win with three touch-

downs. Junior Trey Jacob rushed for 308 yards and four TDs for Linton HMB in their win over Surrey. The only score in the Beach game came when Central McLean muffed a punt in the third quarter. Beach’s Gage Swanson would later score the only TD of the game. Beach now

ield adding three TDs. Minot Ryan, a 34-12 winner over New SalemAlmont, will be Bowman County’s next opponent at Bowman on Nov 2. Other local first round Class A scores were Velva over Killdeer, 47-7 and Shiloh Christian downing Des Lacs-Burlington, 43-12.

With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-
