P

aying bills is never fun. Sometimes it’s easy to lose a check or forget to pay a bill; we have all been there. The city is hoping to reduce the stress of this monthly burden by setting up a new automatic payment system for the water utilities bill.

In early November, Dacotah Bank Market Retail Leader John Hausauer approached the city to pitch the idea of an automatic payment system.

After working out the details, the city ultimately voted to go forward with adopting the automatic payment system in June’s city council meeting.

Hausauer said that he approached the board both on a personal level and on behalf of Dacotah Bank.

“I approached the city because, when I used to live in Rapid City, they had a convenient automatic payment system, and it was something I thought Hettinger could benefit from,” said Hausauer. “Also professionally because, if implemented, the automatic payment system could save Dacotah bank time when processing checks.”

The City of Hettinger also hopes to benefit from the automatic payment system. Much like other online payments, the intent of the automatic system is to save processing time for everyone involved.

In addition to convenience for citizens paying their water bill, City Council member James Lindquist hopes that the AUTOPAY » PAGE 4

ettinger celebrated a successful Independence Day this year with an eventpacked week. People showed their American pride and patriotism through baseball events,

a parade and, of course, fireworks.

For people visiting town, there was plenty to do.

“There were events all throughout the week,” said the Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce and Adams County Devel-

opment Corporation Jasmin Fosheim. “The week kicked off with baseball and Helping Hettinger Day. Wednesday night we had the band Dirty Word in town playing at the Hettinger Fair Grounds, and then Thursday started with the West

River Health Services Fun Run and Walk.”

Like every year, the annual fireman’s breakfast kicked off the Fourth of July festivities.

After breakfast, people dressed up like characters from the Wizard of Oz for the “There’s

No Place Like Home” parade. Scarecrows, lions, and witches paraded down Hettinger’s Main Street to celebrate their hometown.

ast week, Scruffy’s former owner Jodi Larson said goodbye to the restaurant industry and sold the business to new owners. Although this may be sad for some regular customers of the restaurant, Larson said that she was happy to return to her passion of working with children.

After summer break winds to an end, Larson plans on working at Hettinger Public School as a paraprofessional.

“I would call it bittersweet,” said Larson. “Before opening

Scruffy’s with my husband, I worked in a preschool for 15 years and I’m just super excited to return to that.”

Even though Larson said she is excited to get back into working with children, she will miss a lot of the regular customers that she got to know at Scruffy’s.

“I’m going to miss those guys,” said Larson, “but you know, it’s a small town. I’ll see them around.”

Although the ownership is changing, Scruffy’s will continue to stay open. Scruffy’s new business owner, José Muñoz said that he SCRUFFYS » PAGE 4

T

he agricultural education program was a very strong part of Hettinger Public School’s educational system in the 1960s and 1970s. The program has seen its ups and downs.

Three years ago, Mrs. Ronda Schauer stepped into the program as teacher and FFA advisor. Her, the students and several local people have spent much time and energy bringing the classroom and equipment up to date. Mrs. Schauer brings in local contractors to help give handson experience to students in plumbing, carpentry, concrete, electrical, woodworking, welding, along with agronomy and livestock. The FFA meetings are run with the use of Parliamentary Procedure; therefore FFA members learn the valuable knowledge of Parliamentary Procedure by which most businesses and organizations run their meetings. The organization has pre-

sented proper Parliamentary Procedure to HPS school boards and would be willing to do this for others. The opportunity of hands-on is invaluable to some students as not everyone will attend college.

The program is growing as is shown in the number of students Mrs. Schauer has each year.

More and more students are competing in FFA contests throughout the year including Range Judging, District Leadership Development Events, Winter Career Development Events, State FFA Convention, and the North Dakota State Fair. These students have the ability to run for state and national offices through the FFA portion of this program – giving them opportunities they may not otherwise have. It is a great thing our local school provides students with a wide variety of experiences for the academically, as well as the vocationally, minded.

To promote and grow the Hettinger agriculture

education program with financial and leadership support. This is the mission statement of the recently formed Hettinger FFA Booster Club which was formed the spring of 2017. The group’s intent is to help students financially to attend state and national conventions if need be and help the classroom purchase tools, equipment or textbooks when the need arises.

They do not have membership fees – just people seeing a need to educate our youth of Adams County’s number one industry – agriculture.

With that said, the group held a raffle for 2 rifles the end of 2018.

With some of these funds, the FFA Booster Club purchased a Jet 16-speed woodworking drill press for the vocational agricultural shop.

We would like to thank everyone that purchased raffle tickets as you are the reason this was possible.

embers of the Hettinger School Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) chapter attended the FBLA National Leadership Conference in San Antonio, T X, June 29-July 2.

FBLA chapters from the United States, Puerto Rico, China and the U.S. Virgin Islands participated in this conference, where almost 13,000 students and advisers gathered, and students had the opportunity to test their business skills against other students.

The most exciting aspect of the conference is the competitive

events program. Students have the opportunity to test the business skills they’ve learned in the classroom in a variety of individual, team, and chapter events. Students can enter events such as accounting, computer applications, public speaking, job inter view, website development, or broadcast journalism.

The culmination of the competitive events program is the awards ceremony where winners are recognized for their accomplishments.

In addition to the competitive events program, students had the opportunity to attend workshops, regional

meetings, and elect a new national officer team.

FBLA is a professional organization for students interested in pursuing business careers. This year’s theme of “Create.

Lead. Inspire.,” reflects the goals of FBLA members, some of the best and brightest of today’s young people.

Its mission is to inspire and prepare students to become communityminded business leaders in a global society through relevant career preparation and leadership experiences.

early three years ago, West River Health Services began looking into the possibility of building and owning a new healthcare clinic in Lemmon, South Dakota. After all, outside of the Hettinger Clinic, Lemmon has been the largest and fastest growing satellite clinic in the WRHS healthcare system.

Once the IGA Grocery Store left their building on Main Street and headed for new digs on Highway 12 about a year ago, West River inquired more seriously. This is a terrific location right on Main Street, with a huge building and a sizeable cement parking lot.

After numerous board of director meetings, community visits, town hall discussions, amazing legwork by Anthony Larson and Joan Pelkofer, and actual building creation the last seven months by Doug Peterson & Associates and a TEAM of local contractors, that dream is about to become reality. To celebrate this milestone achievement, the New West River Health Services Lemmon Dacotah Clinic is hosting an Open House on Saturday, July 13th, from 11:30am to 3:00pm, following the Annual Boss Cowman Parade.

Everyone is welcome to attend this Open House event. There will be employee-guided tours of the New Clinic, 1,000 FREE Schwan’s ice cream treats, cases of FREE cold ice water, and FREE blood pressure and blood sugar screenings. Plus, there will be “live” local musicians for you to enjoy – inside and out! Youth sensation Dillon Reede will provide soothing piano music within the clinic and Colton Damjanovich is working hard to round up local musicians for entertainment outside. We guarantee this will be one event you’ll want to attend!

This New WRHS Lemmon Dacotah Clinic will address each of the issues with the former leased healthcare clinic, including improvements such as: 100% patient privacy, 100% wheelchair accessibility, 35 parking spots for patients/ employees, and overall,

more space in general for patients, physicians and employees. Plus, there will be a separate exit available for behavioral health patients if needed. And who knows what else could happen within this amazing new facility in the future, as there is plenty of room upstairs.

Back in late October, 2018, DP & Associates were selected as the lead contractor and received their contract from the WRHS Board of Directors to move forward with the project. They began working immediately with local subcontractors Stock’s Electric, B & C Plumbing, Custom 101 Construction and more. They completely gutted the former IGA Grocery Store and have since built a state-ofthe-art healthcare clinic for our area community. Although there are a few minor projects remaining within the new clinic, the end is in sight. And by having local contractors doing the work, they’ll be able to finish the necessary projects quickly.

With this $1.5 million project moving forward, a goal was set at $300,000 for the New Lemmon Clinic’s fundraising campaign.

It was put into action by the WRHS Foundation in November, 2018. The Foundation’s Fund Development Officer, Ted Uecker, and WRHS CEO, Matt Shahan, met with Dacotah Bank first. After visiting about the possibility of naming rights and pondering the idea for a week or so, Dacotah Bank decided to join our TEAM as the lead sponsor with a $100,000 pledge gift over five years, which includes naming rights for the New WRHS Lemmon Dacotah Clinic. Shortly thereafter, Lemmon High alumni Don & Marianne Beeler and Doug Shortridge joined the campaign with $25,000 and $50,000 gifts. Now our goal of $300,000 didn’t seem so far off, once we had secured these three magnificent contributions. Since the very beginning, the campaign has been steadily adding donors to this endeavor. In less than five months, the $300,000 goal had been surpassed. These efforts included a $25,000 gift from West River Cooperative Telephone Company in Bison; a $20,000 pledge from the Wheeler Trust; and

six,terrific $10,000 gifts/pledgeseach from Anthony & Jodi Larson Family, Chuck & Kerry Christman Family, Eldon & Mary Jean Jensen Family, Dr. Josh & Dr. Carrie Ranum Family, Dakota Plains Federal Credit Union and CHS I Southwest Grain. We also were fortunate to receive amazing $5,000 gifts from the Hetzel family, David S. Anderson, the Lemmon Area Foundation, and the team of Stock’s Electric and B & C Plumbing.

Plus, we had 21 businesses, organizations and families gift $1,000 or more! Each of the afore mentioned will be recognized on the New Lemmon Clinic Donor Board, as well as on sponsorship signage outside each Clinic room. In addition, anyone who gives $100 or more to the Campaign will be recognized on the New Lemmon Clinic Donor Board as well.

Of course every gift, no matter the size, is most appreciated. In fact, the local Modern Woodmen Lemmon Chapter has recently joined the New WRHS Lemmon Dacotah Clinic campaign with $2,500 in Matching Funds. Therefore, we are hoping to raise $2,500 or more at our Open House on July 13th, so we can receive the match. With the $5,000 total, we will be purchasing a new microscope, new automatic blood pressure cuffs, and two new wheelchairs for the new Clinic! If you’d like to join our TEAM and be part of the match, please attend our Open House on July 13th or if you can’t attend, you can always mail gifts to West River Health Services Foundation, Attention: Ted Uecker, 1000 Highway 12, Hettinger, ND, 58639.

Please write all checks to “WRHSF” and in the memo section, “New Lemmon Clinic.”

We are grateful.

Thank you so much to our current list of 147 contributors. So far, as a TEAM, we have raised $335,016!

And Special Thanks to our local contractor and subcontractors.

TOGETHER we have created a top-notch healthcare facility for the future good health of Lemmon and the surrounding area. Onward!

LOCAL FROM PAGE 1 new automatic payment system will increase efficiency for workers at the courthouse.

“The automatic payment system takes care of a lot of the accounting work,” said Lindquist.

“Hopefully this will free up a little more time. That is one of the main benefits for the City.”

Because the City of Hettinger has accounts with Dacotah Bank, the bank will facilitate the automatic payment. So how does it work?

Hausauer explained, “It’s an agreement between the city and the citizen to automatically pay your water bill directly from your account on a monthly basis.”

According to Hausauer, citizens opting into the automatic payment would only have to sign the agreement once. Once signed, the agreement is in place until dissolved by either the city or the citizen. From

intends on keeping the restaurants name.

“I like the name and I think everybody know it,” said Muñoz.

“That’s why we will be keeping the same name and the same phone number.”

In addition to the same name, Munoz said that he intends to keep a lot of the same staff and food on the menu too.

Once they get established into the community, he said that he hopes to eventually start adding some Mexican food to the menu.

“People like the food so we will serve the same menu,” he said.

“We will start with serving American food, but we plan on selling

there, the system does the rest.

“Every month, your bill will come out and you will be able to see it on your statement,” said Hausauer.

“Once the agreement is signed, you are not going to have to remember to write out a check or drop off cash every month.”

The automatic payment system will cost the city a one-time initial cost of $1000 to pay for the software and with an additional $100 annual fee. Lindquist said that even with the cost, introducing this system will ultimately help Hettinger.

“It wasn’t a big cost to the city and it also extends what we can do,” said Lindquist. “We would like to move forward with making things new and open to the younger generation, especially with saving time.

We are interested in seeing whether people sign up and utilize this service or not. If people do, they would save a lot of time for our employees at the courthouse.”

Mexican food too, because people are asking for it,” In addition to Scruffy’s, Munoz owns a food truck in Dickinson, and has over ten years of experience in the food service industry. He said he hopes to add similar dishes to Scruffy’s menu.

“We would like to add burrito verde, chimchangas, and enchiladas. We have 45 items for the menu,” he said.

Jodi Larson said that ultimately, she is happy that the building will be utilized and still apart of the community.

“I’m glad that Hettinger isn’t losing a restaurant,” she said, “and there will be something both recognizable and new to take its place.”

rade. It’s just incredibly exciting to see everyone lined up along Main Street and see the creativity of the different floats that come through the parade,” said Fosheim. “There were some pretty realistic looking Dorothys, Todos, and Glendas running down the street.”

The results from the parade are as follows: Best Vehicle Entry – Dakota Plains Credit Union Best Patriotic – Memory Works Fireworks Best Youth – Lil’ Hawks Daycare Best Business – Uecker Yards Best Theme – West River Health Services After the parade and the free noon meal at the Hettinger Granary, kids could run their hearts out on the inflatables at Mirror Lake Park.

“The inflatables were a big hit,” said Fosheim.

“This year we found a more local company based out of Faith, South Dakota for the inflatables and they were great to work with, so we intend on working with them in the future.”

The fun wasn’t just for the kids. There was something for everybody including a Big Bang Scramble golf tournament, a volleyball tournament, a horseshoe tournament, bingo, and the Jaycees incredible fireworks show.

Already, Fosheim said the Chamber is preparing for next year’s Fourth of July.

She explained, “We were able to take notes on what worked and what didn’t because next year, the 4th is on a weekend and so it will be a much bigger celebration.”

Fosheim encouraged people from the Hettinger area to brainstorm and implement their own ideas to make the Fourth of July an even better experience for everyone.

“Most of the events that the Chamber puts on are the same from year to year,” said Fosheim. “The Chamber does such a wonderful job putting on this big celebration, but if there is something new that people want to see or be expanded on, we encourage people to take on events next year because there is only so much that a few board members can do.”

LOCAL Nitrate Toxicity Poses Risk to Cattle SUBMITTED BY HANNAH NORDBY

D

riving across the county in the past week I’ve noticed round bales starting to dot the country side, signaling the beginning of haying season- or at least the attempted start up!

With haying and grazing season underway across North Dakota, and much of the forage supply consisting of small grains and cover crops producers need to be aware potential hazards.

Although these crops offer flexibility in cropping systems and a great source of livestock feed, they could pose a risk of nitrate toxicity, according to Janna Block, livestock systems specialist at North Dakota State University’s Hettinger Research Extension Center.

Nitrate toxicity is a potential issue for livestock consuming smallgrain forages (wheat, oats, rye, triticale and barley), sorghum and sudangrass, and corn used for hay or silage.

Although nitrates typically are not an issue on rangelands, pastures with nitrate-accumulating weeds such as kochia, lambsquarter, pigweed, quackgrass and Russian thistle also may be a problem.

“Nitrate is a common form of nitrogen found in the soil, which is taken up by plants and converted to protein through the process of photosynthesis,” Block explains. “Under normal growing conditions, nitrate does not accumulate in the plant.

However, when plants encounter stressful growing conditions, photosynthesis is inhibited

and the potential for accumulation of nitrates is increased.”

When beef cattle consume increased quantities of nitrate, it overwhelms the ability of rumen microbes to convert nitrate to protein. Nitrate is converted to nitrite, which is 10 times more toxic than nitrate.

Excess nitrite is absorbed into the bloodstream, which removes the blood’s ability to carry oxygen and causes the animal to suffocate.

Cases of lower-level, chronic toxicity also can occur. In those cases, producers may observe weight loss, night blindness and abortions in their cattle.

“Most people associate the potential for increased risk of nitrate with drought, and this is true,” Block says.

“However, prolonged cool temperatures and cloudy conditions also can disrupt the conversion process and cause nitrate to build up in the plants.”

This relates particularly to Adams County, where forage growth has been impacted by an unseasonably cool spring.

Here are several strategies to reduce the risk of nitrate toxicity: • Control potential nitrate-accumulating weeds in pastures.

• Avoid cutting forage or allowing cattle to graze it in the morning, when nitrate levels are at their highest.

• Consider raising the cutter bar when harvesting forage because the majority of nitrates accumulate in the lower one-third of the stem.

• Delay the harvest because nitrate levels generally decrease as plants mature; however, this strategy increases

the risk of a loss in forage quality.

“The most important recommendation is to test for nitrates prior to grazing or haying,” Block says.

Your NDSU Adams County Extension office has access to a Nitrate QuikTest, which is a screening tool to assess whether nitrate is present in standing forage.

Block suggests producers collect at least 20 stems while they travel in a zigzag pattern across the field. Stems should be clipped to ground level.

“If nitrates are present in the sample, producers should delay grazing or harvest for several days and then re-test,” Block says. “Samples then also can be submitted to a laboratory for quantitative analysis to further assist with management decisions.”

The Nitrate QuikTest is not designed to evaluate nitrate content in harvested forages. If forages already have been cut and baled, the best strategy is to use a bale probe to collect core samples from a minimum of 20 bales per lot of forage and submit them to a laboratory for analysis. A lot is defined as hay harvested no more

than 48 hours apart from within the same field.

“Producers need to understand the potential risks of nitrate toxicity and the factors leading to nitrate accumulation in plants,” Block says.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING TO AMEND NORTH DAKOTA WORKFORCE SAFETY & INSURANCE MEDICAL FEE SCHEDULES

“Determining actual levels of nitrate present in hay is critical for being able to utilize nitrate-containing forages safely in rations for beef cattle.”

For more information about nitrate toxicity, contact your county Extension Agent Han-

nah Nordby at 701-5672735 or Hannah.nordby@ndsu.edu or check out the NDSU Extension publication “Nitrate Poisoning of Livestock,” (https://www.ag.ndsu. edu/publications/livestock/nitrate-poisoningof-livestock).

DEAN MEYER Guest Columnist

Hello,

Something is bugging me. It’s bugs.

I don’t care for bugs.

Oh, a ladybug once in awhile is kind of fun to

see. And a bumblebee hovering over Shirley’s flowers is a treat. And I used to enjoy putting something down for ants to carr y and mar vel at how much they could lift. But by and large, I don’t care for bugs.

On the news the other day, they were telling how the demand for bugs is really growing. People enjoy bugs.

For food. Really? People enjoy eating bugs.

Now many of you have tried eating bugs. If you have ever

Your community's views driven a motorcycle through a swarm of mosquitoes. Or been unplugging the hay cutter and happened to breath through your mouth when you are under the cutter. Or maybe were working cattle and an unlucky fly flew into your mouth when you were yelling at your wife. I mean I can eat a steak in a few bites, but a little bug gets caught in my throat and I gag.

Now they are saying eating bugs will save the planet. This is where I told Shirley to make mine a double.

Eating bugs will save

the planet. Then we should just get rid of all the people, and replace us with anteaters.

That would really be good. Unless of course you are a person or a bug.

Now when you eat meat, or fish, you clean them. I mean you remove the insides and eat the meat.

I am assuming that if you eat bugs, you just eat the whole thing. Oh, you may put chocolate on it. Or marinate it in a wine sauce. Or drink the wine sauce and then eat the bugs. And think of the meals you could

scrape off your windshield!

Years ago I was in Alaska. Up on the Nor th Slope. You think we have big mosquitoes in Nor th Dakota.

These are nothing. I mean nothing. I swear the mosquitoes up there were nearly as big as turkeys. I mean there are mosquitoes there that you could clean and roast over a fire. I bet they will become really valuable.

But here is what I am going to do.

I challenge the news guys that did this stor y to a challenge.

I want one of

them to open a little restaurant in Buffalo or Dickinson and ser ve only bugs on the menu.

And open it next to the Three or The Crossing. Where you can get great steak tips or steaks. And we will see which one is in business in a couple months.

I’ll take the ribeye, medium rare, with a baked potato.

You can have the grasshopper glazed in chocolate.

daughter in Ontario.

Reub baled hay on the 4th, but I went to Hettinger to watch the parade. I took some of Mom’s old pictures along to see if Crystal Hanna and Dennis Nash could identify them. They knew who some of them were, but there are still some that are unknown. I came home after lunch to check on Reub and to watch the president honor our military at the Independence Day celebration in Washington, DC. Pres. Trump gave quite a history lesson about our nation and our military. Every time he talked about a branch of the military, the bands played the anthem for that branch while there was an amazing flyover for each branch of the military. I wish every young person in America had watched it to learn a whole lot of history about our nation that they probably have never heard before.

While on the subject of history, in the box of my mother’s pictures that Ken Amor gave me I found two large pictures that were taken during Gala Days on the 50th an-

niversary of the founding of Bison in 1958. The first was Gov. Joe Foss speaking at the old movie theater, which is now the American Legion hall. I believe the second picture is of Rep. E.Y. Berry speaking to the same crowd. Gov. Foss flew to Bison to ride horseback in the parade and help Bison celebrate its 50th anniversary. I was just a little kid, but one of my proudest moments was when I got to hold Gov. Foss’s horse for him while he spoke to the crowd!

Raymond and Chris Lee have been married for 25 years and Casey and Missy joined lots of friends and neighbors in Camp Crook Saturday night to help them celebrate. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long since those kids tied the knot!

There was a potluck dinner after church at Slim Buttes Lutheran this Sunday for the Joshua Team that came to teach vacation Bible school this week. Pastor Henry and Linda Mohagen had several grandkids show up on Sunday on their way home from the Free Lutheran

Youth (FLY) camp at Estes Park, Colorado. Their grandson, Reese Mohagen, was in church here last Sunday waiting for the bus to pick him and Tessa Verhulst up for their trip to the camp. Sounds like everyone had a great time!

Tom and Kathy Fabris went to Bible study at John and Corinne Erickson’s with us Sunday evening. Brad and Linda Abelseth just got home from their trip all over the south and it was great to have them back to join us and Lester and Sharon Longwood.

I have some questions: *Why isn't the number 11 pronounced onety-one? *If a pig loses its voice is it disgruntled? *Why do croutons come in airtight packages? Aren't they just stale bread to begin with? *If people from Poland are called Poles, then why aren't people from Holland called Holes? *Do Lipton Tea employees take 'coffee breaks?' *If FedEx and UPS were to merge, would they call it Fed UP?

Driscoll and Camp Arnold four miles north of Oriska.

Two headstones honor the memory of two soldiers buried at the Pickett Lake campsite, and a site at Lake Johnson honors George T. Johnson, who drowned there.

Many of these sites are neglected now. A chokecherry bush drapes over the stone marker at Camp Atchison, and tall grass has grown up around everything. A flagpole stands with no flag. Helm said, “The expedition was far from noble; it was about revenge, and innocent people died. Still, I felt sad for the soldier buried there — he died because he got sick, and he was left behind in the middle of nowhere.

I couldn’t help but wonder what that was like for his family.”

Freakish Hail Storm Dakota Datebook written

by Tessa Sandstrom July 16, 2019 — It was 1951, and farmers of Emmons and McIntosh Counties were optimistic about the year’s crops. It looked to be one of the best crops they had ever had, but it was late at night on this date when many of these crops were pummeled by ice chunks the size of a man’s fist.

The storm, reported to be ten miles deep and forty miles long, was a sporadic one, too. The Ashley Tribune reported that this “freakish” hail storm “oddly ... lifted here and there, sparing numerous fields, while others nearby were almost totally destroyed.” Near Kintyre in Emmons County, the storm cut a path four miles wide and twenty miles long through some fields, putting farmers at a 100 percent loss. Yet other farmers, especially in nearby Fredonia of Logan County only reported a three percent loss. Only one farmer near Fredonia reported extensive damage, making this the sixth year in a row he’d been hailed out.

Heavy moisture accompanied the hail, with McIntosh County receiving one and three quarters inches of

rain. High winds knocked out windows in homes in barns, and lightning started a farmhouse near Strasburg on fire. The storm continued through the night early into the next morning.

The next morning, after the storm cleared, the sight many walked out to was that of broken windows, dented siding, trampled crops, and in some areas, ditches filled one foot deep with hail.

Two hundred loss claims were reported to the McIntosh County Auditor’s office following the storm. It was a tragedy for many who were expecting a bumper crop, and many others who had plans to begin harvesting later that week. Kintyre postmaster Ed Ellingson commented on the destructive storm. “It’s a sad sight after the finest stand that any of the old timers had ever seen.”

BETTY OLSON Guest Columnist

The weather cool down nicely this week and we got enough rain that I haven’t had to water my gardens since Tuesday.

There were a couple tornados west of here, but so far we haven’t had any nasty stuff.

I had a good visit with Scott Hanson Monday morning about some of his family history in this area. Scott lives in Marion, Illinois, but he grew up just west of Bison.

His parents were Leland and Hazel (Hamilton) Hanson. His grandfather, Jim Hanson, was born in Dakota Territory in 1885 and lived outside Bison

when I was growing up.

Scott’s mother’s parents were Ralph and Pearla (Giannonatti) Hamilton and Maurice Hamilton was his uncle. Ralph was Cash Timmons nephew that the old post office and town of Cash was named after. Ralph was about 10 years old when he helped Uncle Cash trail some horses he had acquired in Nebraska to Ft. Meade where they had been purchased by the army. This was about 1900 and young Ralph rode back home all alone because his Uncle Cash still had things to do.

Cash told him where to stop on the way home and which places to avoid.

Can you image a little kid doing that today?

Taz and Gator Lambert left on Monday for the rodeo in Livingston, Montana and then went on to Greeley, Colorado where Taz was up in the short go on Wednesday. Reub and I went to Reeder to get weed spray Monday afternoon and then on to Hettinger to get oil and parts. Casey and Trig were raking the hay down the creek trying

to get it dry enough to bale. They got some of it baled the next day while I was watering my gardens.

It rained Tuesday night and I haven’t needed to water anything since then.

Sierra Lee came down early Wednesday morning to take Casey, Trig and a couple other cowboys to rodeos in Ft. Pierre and Interior. Casey and Taz left early in the morning on the 4th for the rodeo in Marmarth. After Taz was up in the short go in Greeley he headed to rodeos in Killdeer and Mandan on the 4th of July. Amanda took the little people up to watch Daddy in those rodeos and visited her sister Josi while she was there. Taz and Cameron Morman flew to a rodeo in Oregon on Friday because Gater Lambert had already taken their horses out there.

Ken Amor headed for Canada on Tuesday in his new mobile home camper to visit his three kids for the next three weeks. He got to Alberta on Friday and will spend a little time with his son Adam before going on to visit his other son and his

Dakota Datebook

DAKOTA DATEBOOK: Sibley Historic Sites Dakota Datebook written

by Merry Helm July 15, 2019 — The State Historical Society administers a good number of historic military sites throughout the state, many of which are small out-ofthe-way spots that come with small brown road signs that point the way.

Recently, our Dakota Datebook writer came upon one of these beside ND Hwy 1 near Binford.

“I spotted it and asked my husband to pull over!” she said. A marker explained that it was the site of Camp Atchison, a field-base used for more than a month in 1863 by the Sibley Expedition.

“It was so quiet,” Helm said. “It was like discovering a nesting pheasant, because beside the marker stood the

grave of a soldier who had died there. His headstone was of white marble that looked like it had just been carved. It was unsettling.”

A string of historic markers identify the 1863 route through North Dakota. Along with one led

by General Sully, General Sibley’s expedition was here for one specific purpose – to find and kill Little Crow and his men, who they’d been fighting in Minnesota for almost a year. While Sully’s men were the worst offenders, neither expedition discriminated; if Native Americans were spotted, they were considered enemies and fired upon – men, women or children, it didn’t matter.

Termed the Sioux Uprising, a long progression of bloody battles had begun with a relatively innocent event the previous summer.

On a Sunday morning in August, four young braves were passing the farm of Robinson Jones, when one of them took some eggs from one of the farmer’s hens. One of the boys said it was a bad idea and was quickly branded a coward, which he claimed wasn’t true. One thing led to the next, ending with the murder of five white settlers.

The back and forth reprisals

that were set off by that event didn’t end until 28 years later when revenge for the Little Bighorn culminated in the Massacre at Wounded Knee.

Sibley and Sully had followed Little Crow into Dakota Territory, with Sibley entering near Big Stone Lake on June 24. The first major camp established

by Sibley’s expedition was at Fort Atchison, where about 1,000 of the 3,330 soldiers were left, including many who had become ill.

Other sites used by Sibley’s men in July include Camp Weiser near Kathryn, Camp Buell near Milnor, Camp Corning near Dazey, Camp Hayes near Lisbon, Camp Grant near Woodworth, Camp Kimball southwest of Carrington and Camp Sheardown southeast of Valley City.

On July 26, Sibley and his men engaged in their first major exchange with the Dakotas. That site is called the Big Mound Battlefield, which is near Tappen.

Nine miles north of Tappen is the approximate location of the Camp Whitney, the campsite used by the expedition following the battle. There is a grave marker at Camp Whitney.

Sites used in August include Camp Banks near
