Cardinals football team brings home second straight Class A title By JAKE KULLAND Republican Sports Writer

Turn to Page 7 to read about FM's recent donation to the Pembina Gorge. Rita Maisel's Langdon Long Ago can be found on Page 12 this week. Early Deadline for Dec. 2 paper, ALL news & advertising must be in by 2 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 26.

It's been said that once you climb the mountain, the second time up can be much easier. Those words can perfectly describe this year's LangdonEdmore-Munich Cardinals 2019 football team. The Cards, who won their first-ever State Class A 11-Man title last season in a thriller over Hillsboro-Central Valley, proved that it can be much easier trying to run the table a second time. The Cardinals did not have a close game all season (their closest game was 28 points) in winning their second straight crown with a 42-14 victory over Bishop Ryan at the Dakota Bowl at the Fargodome on November 15. With the win, the Cards ended their season with a perfect record of 13-0. They now have a winning streak of 25 games going back to the state championship

game of 2017. Langdon-Edmore-Munich had 11 players on their roster that had title game experience from the 2017-18 championship game run. That veteran leadership has shown through all fall, especially in their postseason wins over Northern Cass, Oakes, Lisbon and Bishop Ryan. The senior captains, Jesse Fetsch and Jackson Delvo, along with juniors Grant and Simon Romfo, led the way to the promised land. Fetsch incredibly played all this season with a torn ACL from an injury suffered at an off-season football camp this summer at NDSU. When asked how difficult it has been to play with such in injury, Jesse or "Chief", as he is nicknamed, said, "It hasn't hurt too badly. I basically try not to think about it." He said about winning another state crown, "It feels great. It's hard to explain what it feels like, just a lot

of fun to do it again with all my friends." Fetsch, while playing all season as a lineman and linebacker with a huge knee brace, showed the definition of "Heart of a Champion". He is scheduled to have knee surgery on November 25. Delvo, who caught 15 of quarterback Simon Romfo's unreal 39 touchdown passes this season including one at the Dakota Bowl, said about the title, "Some guys don't get to play in one of these games once, and we've played in three. It's unbelievable." A big part of what got the Cardinals back-toback championships was their swarming defense and about that Jackson said, "We all know that as long as we all do our job on defense, we will be all right. It always feels good to see that goose egg on the board." Langdon-Edmore-Munich coach Josh Krivarchka won his third straight Class A Coach

of the Year award, and when asked about this year's team he said, "This is just a great group of kids, on the field and off the field. They're leaders in the classroom, and they're not just one sport athletes, they play multiple sports. They are going to be good in other sports, too, which is great to see as a coach knowing that these guys will put the time and effort into everything they do. To win backto-back titles is a pretty rare feat, and it's very special for all our guys. It hasn't really sunk in to me yet as a coach, but I know we're all going to be living on cloud nine for a few weeks." And about the coaching staff, Fetsch concluded, "Our coaches are great. To come out and work hard for them at practice every day- they chew our butts once in awhile, but to win two out of three state championships makes it all worth it." cont. on page 2

According to the website, for every $100 spent at local businesses, $68 stays in the community compared to $43 out of $100 spent in non-local businesses. Some ways American Express lists for businesses to get ready and to get the most out of Small Business Saturday are very helpful. The first suggestion is to remind people about Small Business Saturday and the benefits of participating. Business owners should also implement a targeted email marketing strategy. According to the American Express website, email is one of the most valuable marketing channels you can use to build anticipation in advance of any promotion, sale, or holiday. The site recommends utilizing social media to encourage engagement and participation in the event. Highlight any special offers or incentives. Find ways to build excitement among loyal customers and showcase some of the most giftable products. Small Business Saturday began in 2010 by American Express as a way to help and support local businesses and e-commerce shops. The day falls between Black Friday and cont. on page 3

Little Helga’s Barley Bin & Bakery opens By Melissa Anderson Republican Editor Osnabrock has a breakfast spot once again, and this time it has an Icelandic twist. Jolene Halldorson has reopened the Barley Bin in Osnabrock, giving locals a place to meet and eat. “I opened to fill a need in the community. Breakfast at the Barley Bin is a part of Osnabrock history; it’s a routine

for many,” Halldorson said. “It’s important to keep these traditions and also to keep the small communities active.” Halldorson is known for her love of tradition and heritage in the area. An advocate for Icelandic culture, she enjoys sharing her ancestral foods at her new business. “When I considered open-

ing for breakfast, I knew I needed something more to make it stand out,” Halldorson shared. "As I started along the journey of renovation of the Barley Bin, my vision became clear. I could serve baked Icelandic delicacies to help sustain the café. I have always loved baking, so why not combine this with my other love, my Icelandic heritage." Combining the breakfast with baking has been suc-

cessful for Little Helga’s. Offering Icelandic specialty baking, among other items, has given the new version of the Barley Bin a way to set itself apart from other area eateries. While the variety of items isn’t large, Halldorson’s focus on the Icelandic baked treats keeps it simple. cont. on page 2

Hidden Pencil Winner!

By Melissa Anderson Republican Editor

The winner of this week's Hidden Pencil is Sharon Johnson of Osnabrock There were 12 entries. The pencil was hidden in the "Glenn's Appliance Black Friday" ad.

The Cavalier County Commission had lengthy discussions at their recent meeting held on Tuesday, November 19. The Commission’s discussion revolved around the proposed roadmen supervisor position and the need for consolidated direction for the county roadmen. The commissioners discussed the proposed position with Cavalier County Road Supervisor Terry Johnston. The discussion on the position revolved around two concepts for the job - hiring from within or hiring from outside and what the goal of the position would be. Commissioner Stanley Dick stated that hiring from within may cause issue as no current roadman was ever promised the ability to move up within the county and also felt that there would be some friction between the roadman who moved into the new position and those that remained. Commissioner Greg Goodman asked the KLJ representative present for their input on how other counties handle this type of position or transition from one road supervisor

to another. This issue is also being pursued as a possible training position for when Johnston retires. KLJ explained that the company has worked with other counties during transitions. The primary reason for the proposed position would be to organize all of the roadmen under one person providing a succinct direction and order. This position would also provide the go-between for the roadmen and the Commission rather than the current system of one commissioner for each district and attempts to orchestrate what the Commission wants the roadmen to do. The position, as discussed, would most likely be part-time with the ability to be more as duties dictate. Some other duties that were discussed in regards to the position included learning how to handle FEMA applications from Johnston and being a fill-in driver for the roadmen. No real progress was made in terms of coming to a decision. The commissioners met with the roadmen later on in their meeting to go over new requirements for working as well as reminders for what needs to be occurring at the shops. The county will now require the roadmen to wear provided safety vests

while working. The Commission went over equipment repairs that need to be made prior to next year as well as the handling of billing and other paperwork. The roadmen and commissioners discussed what the expectations are for next year’s road maintenance and how this year’s maintenance went as well as the proposed roadman supervisor position. In Other Business • The Commission appointed Goodman to be on the 2020 Census Committee. • The county held the delinquent tax sale with no properties being bidded on during the meeting. Cavalier County Treasurer Cindy Stremick advised the Commission that cities were willing to take the respective properties and that to entice townships, the Commission should consider a reduction in price for those properties. • The commissioners spoke with HR Officer Crystal Beggs regarding policy on timekeeping and overtime. • Cavalier County Clerk of Court Anita Beauchamp requested permission to have the carpets within her office cleaned.

Langdon Area School Board along with budget & finance committee review current budget and make changes revenues were $5,643,801.16 resulting in a $227,729.98 deficit. Before the November 13, 2019 meeting, budget and finance committee members, along with Christianson and Schneider, combed through the budget, examining each line item and looking for areas to cut costs and save money. During the November 13 meeting, the group compared notes and agreed on all the fields to cut spending. Some of the areas the Board agreed to cut spending include professional development, textbooks, school board stipends, transportation costs, equipment purchases, and site subscriptions. The group also agreed to examine assessments and evaluations for any way to cut current costs. Also, afterschool tuition will be terminated to save money. The budget and finance committee also agreed to adopt a five-year goal of building and retaining a surplus of 25% to 30%. Finally, business manager Schneider told the committee that even with all of the budget cuts and projected year-end surplus, additional funds would be required to pay LASD bills and salaries through January 5, 2020. Schneider also conveyed that the reason additional funds are needed is because the board had to use some of the monies from the LASD savings accounts to make up for the prior year’s deficit. To prevent using more savings account monies and in an effort not to deplete school bank accounts in their entirety, Schneider recommended borrowing or securing a bond from one of the school’s banks for approximately $1,000,000 to cover bills and salaries through January 2020. At the end of the meeting, the committee agreed to meet again on Monday, November 18, 2019, before the full LASD Board meeting to discuss and finalized changes to the 2020year budget and to discuss options for either a bond or a loan for year-end bills and salaries. During the next budget and finance committee meeting on November 18, 2019, the Board agreed to approve changes to the 2020 budget that will result in approximately $151,000 surplus. Though the revised budget projects a surplus at the end of the year, Superintendent Christianson noted that the school system is required to maintain approximately $50,000 to $60,000 in a Special Reserve fund resulting in a net surplus of $151,000. In regards to the needed temporary funds, business manager

By Lisa Nowatzki Republican Writer The Langdon Area School Board’s budget and finance committee held two meetings on Wednesday, November 13, and on Monday, November 18, 2019. Present during both sessions were LASD Board members Cindy Stremick, Chris Olson, and Tyler Feist; school superintendent Daren Christianson; and business manager Shauna Schneider. During these meetings, the committee members were tasked with reviewing the current year’s 2019-2020 budget for areas to reduce spending and to make recommendations to the entire school board for spending cuts aimed at reducing costs and preventing more deficit spending. As identified by Schneider and Christianson, the cause of the current deficit began with the school year 2016-2017. During this time, the business office began using new, computerized accounting software. Under the new software program, some fixed expenditures such as coaches’ salaries were listed in the program as outgoing expenditures but were not included in the actual budget. In effect, monies were taken from the school’s financial accounts without being placed in or accounted for in the budget. Christianson, Stremick, and the entire budget and finance committee readily admit that they should have caught the errors sooner and are committed to preventing more such errors by taking a more conservative approach to the budget. However, while contending with new software, new personnel, hundreds of line items spread across multiple accounts and banks, and dealing with various federal, state, and local revenue sources, all related to a nearly $6 million budget, the complexities of the LASD budget become apparent. Though private and state auditing of the budget helps identify potential problems, the LASD school district gets audited by a private account firm every two years instead of annually. Potential problem areas are, therefore, only detected on a biennial basis versus an annual basis. According to school records, for the 2017-year end, expenditures were $5,334,686.09, and revenues were $5,015,774.18 resulting in a deficit of $318,911.91. For the 2018year end, expenditures were $5,397,212.70, and revenues were $5,323,522.59 resulting in a deficit of $53,690.11. Finally, expenditures for the 2019-year end were $5,871,531.14 and

Schneider and board president Stremick also informed other members that a bond would not be necessary to cover yearend bills. Before the November 18, Schneider and Stremick talked with the school system’s bank and an attorney. The result from these conversations was that the school could secure a loan instead of a bond to cover the year-end salaries and bills. After more examination and with the advice of an attorney, Schneider and Stremick determined that the Board would need to obtain a loan for approximately $500,000 to cover expenses through the beginning of the year, versus the original $1,000,000 proposed by Schneider at the November 13, 2019 meeting. The budget and finance committee then presented the revised budget and the resolution for temporary funding to the entire LASB at the regular meeting on November 18, 2019, for approval. The Board approved the pursuit of a temporary funding loan with a roll call vote with all members voting for the funding. Also presented for approval were various policy updates, the resignation of the part-time music teacher, and home school letters of intent. The Board also agreed to push back the vote regarding a building fund levy from January until June. During the superintendent's report, Christianson recognized the boys’ varsity football team's state title win and the upcoming girls’ volleyball state championship playoff.

Melissa’s Musings By Melissa Anderson Ready, set, shop! Thanksgiving is days away, but Christmas is already in the air...and in the aisles. The season of giving finds its way to make itself known earlier and earlier each year. Online retailers have had their holiday shopping reminders up for most of the month of November. Area retailers have been showcasing their winter decor for almost as long. Now that December nears, the three-day shopping extravaganza does as well. Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday have pretty much become American holidays in their own rights. While these all work to benefit the economy, it is the local impact that gives the biggest bang for the buck and most gratitude. What businesses in the Langdon area should shoppers hit on Saturday, November 30? Every. Single. One. You never know what you may find, and really, the owners will just be glad to see a shopper in their store. Buying a product within their store is appreciated and supporting their way of life. Gifts can be found in abundance at many storefronts from Langdon

Community Drug and Junque Decor on the north end of Main Street to Glitz & Glam and the Republican on the south end. Every business in between - Bread Pan, Roxy, Sew on Sew North, Langdon Floral to name a few - could hold that treasure for the holiday for someone on your list. It isn’t just the businesses on Main Street, either, that would appreciate some added traffic to their doors. Schroeder Furniture and Glenn’s Appliance can help make the hosting of holiday get-togethers easier and more comfortable. Forgot that key ingredient in the recipe? Leever’s is there to help and can even have surprising items within their shelves. Trust me on that one, I have been shocked silly when I happened upon an item I was not expecting a small town grocer to have. Small business make America and keep it going. Without the businesses that are locally owned, there wouldn’t be much for a town to boast about. The vibrancy of a community, along with it’s potential and longevity, depend on small businesses offering goods and services. After all, once the shops close, it’s very easy for a town to dwindle down to ghosts. Support the local businesses so they can keep supporting you!

Upside Down Under By Marvin Baker

Is ‘Wexit’ the answer?... There’s a movement going on across the border in Canada that is becoming quite serious, and if it ever comes to pass, could change history. For years there’s been a separatist movement in Alberta. It’s been kind of quiet. Every once in a while someone will speak up at a convention and then it dies down again. But ever since the federal election on Oct. 21, western separatists have become quite vocal and are actually claiming their new country as “The Republic of Western Canada.” This has happened before in Canadian history, and one would think the nation learned a lesson in October 1995 when a federal election for Quebec to secede from Canada failed by only 1 percent of the vote. Had that happened, there were all kinds of possible scenarios; none of them would have been good for Canada or the United States. Now, it’s happening again. This time it’s Alberta and Saskatchewan pushing the federal government’s envelope. You’re probably wondering why? It turns out that Justin Trudeau was re-elected as prime minister on Oct. 21. Trudeau, like his father and former prime minister, Pierre, is a liberal and isn’t very well-liked west of Dryden, Ontario. Manitoba, however, appears to be neutral on the subject. Farmers, ranchers, oil developers and even the mining sector are fed

Dear Editor, The ND Congressional Delegation continues its pursuit of the ‘non-major’ congressional acts with the name change of Sullys Hill National Game Preserve! With all the other ‘major’ actions lying dormant (US-Canada-Mexico Trade Agreement, Immigration Reform, Medical Insurance Reform, trade wars, postal service, etc. not to mention the gorilla in the closet-Impeachment) Senator Cramer expounds “This mistake has taken over 100 years to correct. I am sorry for that.” on the Senate floor. Some North Dakotans may just correct the recent mistake in the Senate election they made at the next election! Where will the statue demolishing, name changing ND Congressional Delegation strike next? That nasty name-Devils Lake? What will happen if Congressional staffers discover the name of the community that was my mailing address for years and years-Starkweatherwhich is the same name as the serial-spree killer of 1957-58, Charles Starkweather? Ohh, the shame of it all! In closing my reference to ‘statue demolishing’ by the Congressional relates to the beautiful Elk gracing the entrance to Sullys Hill National Game Preserve. They just can’t paint it white and call it square can they? Bring on the wrecking ball! Yours for more Mike Connor, Devils Lake

up with the Trudeau government not listening to their needs. And apparently, there is a law in Canada, I’m not certain about this, but the oilrich province of Alberta has to send money east to help Quebec because its economy isn’t doing so well right now. I guess I’d be upset too, if that were the case. Even though it’s heavily populated, Quebec has unlimited natural resources, farmland, factories and shipping. I just kind of passed all this “Wexit” stuff off as nothing new, but when a friend who’s a Winnipeg radio personality started talking about it, the threat suddenly became “real.” If the Republic of Western Canada happens, it would have lasting implications for North Dakota, primarily because Saskatchewan, one of the provinces favoring separatism, would become part of the new country. Trade deals, negotiations and sales of farm machinery, fertilizer, technology, etc., would have to start all over again. Manitoba would remain in Canada, and as we all know, the provincial border meets the North Dakota border near Antler or about 60 miles north of Minot. So do we continue to trade with Manitoba while negotiating new deals with Saskatchewan? It would certainly throw a monkey wrench into North Dakota’s export plans. And how about tourism? Whether you go fishing in Flin Flon, catch a Blue Bomber game in Winnipeg or just like to shop Polo Park Mall, things would change. They’d be really different in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Nobody knows what would happen. Leadership hasn’t been established nor

Dear Editor Letter to the Editor: Everyone has a different opinion on the concept “Rock Bottom”. The truth is addicts and alcoholics can hit lower and lower bottoms. Addiction can always get worse. Why go through that though? We should never underestimate that proven fact. For some families they feel that “they just haven’t hit rock bottom”. That is a easy way to ignore the problem at hand. The addict or alcoholic is then left to possibly hit a bottom that they will never come back from, death. It is important to remember the next high or drink could be there last. It’s not necessary for an addict or alcoholic to hit “rock bottom”. Handling it right now, is the only way to stop the downward spiral of addiction. Why let it get worse? The second you take the drink or drug away from an addict and they get into treatment, it is bound to get better. Sometimes fast sometimes slow, but it will always get better!

have rules, so they just might decide to stop American tourists from visiting Banff National Park, going to the races in Estevan or shopping at West Edmonton Mall. We can talk about possible scenarios until we are blue in the face, but we do know there would be change and it would affect North Dakota. Working in this state as a journalist for the past 33 years, I’ve come to find out there are a lot of Canadians living in North Dakota, especially along the northern tier, and how would a Wexit affect them? I personally know Canadian citizens who are living in Minot, Langdon, Bottineau, Kenmare, Devils Lake, Grand Forks, Williston and Bismarck. All of them grew up somewhere in western Canada so their world could change drastically. Canada, or what’s left of it, and the Western Republic, would always be at odds with each other. There would be little compromise, and although it wouldn’t be as bad as Quebec as a country would have been, it would be like a major asteroid hitting the Northern Hemisphere. Secession in the United States is illegal, however in Canada, it is a real possibility because the vote in Quebec in 1995 was a razor thin margin of people’s discontent with Ottawa. There is a simple solution to all this. Justin Trudeau needs to listen to his constituents in the west and compromise on some economic deals that are damaging the west. As I write this article, Trudeau and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe are discussing Saskatchewan’s departure from Canada.

you the most. Once the addict or alcoholic cannot manipulate their loved ones anymore, they typically withdraw from them. The loved one then lives with constant worry and pain from their actions. This includes things like lying, stealing, manipulating, and sometimes even physical abuse. The addict or alcoholic then live with constant guilt that they try and numb with drugs and alcohol. This will cause them to give up hope because they feel as though they can never repair those relationships. I am here to tell you that you can indeed mend them. I myself have, and I watch others rekindle their relationships every day. It starts with the saying “actions speak louder than words”. The biggest factor in repairing these broken relationships is change that they can see and not hear you talk about. Getting treatment and making these positive changes in the way you handle yourself and others is the very start to the journey of repairing relationships with the ones you have hurt. It takes longer for some then others but it is definitely possible.

Burgum encourages student participastudents of the month tion in national cybersecurity challenge Art November Art Students of the Month are all from Munich. They are Hillary Haaven (left photo), daughter Gov. Doug Burgum announced the state’s second year participating in an innovative, online cybersecurity competition and encouraged high school students to explore their aptitude for cybersecurity and computer science by registering. The Girls Go CyberStart program is a series of online challenges that allow students to act as cyber protection agents to solve cybersecurity-related puzzles and explore related topics such as cryptography and digital forensics. Participating students and their teachers do not need knowledge or experience in information technology or cybersecurity to participate. The program, sponsored by the SANS Institute, is free for schools and students, and all girls in grades 9-12 are invited to play. Last year North Dakota had the highest per capita participation, with 310 girls from 28 schools engaged. Registration opens Dec. 2 with the first phase of the program, CyberStart Assess, taking place Jan. 1331. Students who complete five or more CyberStart Assess challenges will be eligible for the CyberStart Game February 10 to April 17, with top-scoring teams then eligible to compete in a national competition in April. Students will also have the opportunity to win cash prizes for themselves and their schools. Both male and female college students also can play the college program, Cyber FastTrack, a pipeline to $2.5 million in scholarships for advanced cybersecurity education as well as internships and jobs in the field. Several informational webinars are also being hosted by SANS on Dec. 3 and Dec. 18 at 3 p.m. ET, 3 p.m. MT and 4 p.m. PT both days. “Cybersecurity skills are in demand in virtually every industry and every country, and North Dakota’s goal is to lead the nation in providing foundational computer science and cybersecurity skills that will help our students and workforce succeed in 21st century careers,” Burgum said. Burgum is a member of GovsForCS, the Governors’ Partnership

for K-12 Computer Science. This group of bipartisan state leaders is committed to advancing policy and funding to expand access to, and increase equity in, K-12 computer science (CS) education. “Women are underrepresented in the cybersecurity industry, and there are plentiful opportunities in the profession,” said Kirsten Baesler, North Dakota’s state school superintendent. “Girls Go CyberStart is free to enter, it’s challenging and fun, and participants can win college scholarship money. I encourage all young ladies to give it a try.” “Numerous states are reaching out to find out how North Dakota has advanced our statewide focus on cybersecurity, from our wholeof-government approach to securing our systems and citizens’ data, to our award-winning K-20W Initiative,” said North Dakota Chief Information Officer Shawn Riley. “This program is a great example of the kind of partnership and engaging activity that helps students discover an affinity for skills that are in demand globally.” Complete details may be found at girlsgocyberstart.org and cyber-fasttrack.org. To see the types of challenges students will face in the games, visit https:// go.joincyberstart.com/. Participating students and schools are encouraged to share updates on social media with #InnovativeND, #GGCyberStart and #TechEverywhere. Participation in the CyberStart Challenge is aligned with the K20W Initiative. K-20W, which stands for “kindergarten through Ph.D. and workforce,” is a collaborative effort with more than 40 public and private sector partners who are advancing statewide efforts to provide computer science and cybersecurity training and resources to North Dakota’s educators and students. The award-winning initiative has a stated goal of “Every Student. Every School. Cyber Educated.”

From the Pastor’s Desk

Devotions by community pastors

This devotion is submitted by Pastor Adrian Olson of North Parish

At its most basic, the reign of God is manifest when those who, like the thief on the cross, recognize their brokenness and need to change, open themselves to the inﬂuence of Christ, and invite God to be the frame of reference for their lives. This does not just apply to those without faith or those who have not made a conscious decision to follow Christ. It is a daily choice that must be made by all – especially those who are committed to the way of Christ. God’s reign will only be seen – Jesus will only be recognized as King – when we, who are called by Christ’s name, begin to live as true disciples, true followers of the sacriﬁcial, life-giving Gospel.

This requires two simple but difficult tasks to be undertaken. The first is to examine ourselves and our lives in the light of Christ’s teaching and example, allowing God’s Spirit to reveal where we still need to come under the rulership – the Lordship – of Christ. This must then lead us into a life of repentance and change which allows Christ’s character to be revealed in us a little more each day. If our faith doesn’t change us, then we’re wasting our – and God’s – time. The second task is to allow the change which God’s reign brings to us to filter through everything we think and say and do. Every interaction, every decision, every moment and every place we

find ourselves in must be submitted to the influence of Christ and must be received as an opportunity to experience God’s reign in our lives and to share the blessing of God’s reign with others. This is not about evangelism in the “tell them about Jesus” sense. It’s about turning our faith into a life-transforming practice rather than just an intellectual assent to some ideas about God. Ultimately, for Christ to truly be Monarch in our world, Christ must be Monarch in individual lives in such a way that God’s peace and justice, God’s love and grace, constantly flow through God’s people into the world – one moment, one interaction and one step at a time.

Be antibiotic aware vaccines, such as the ﬂu vaccine.

The North Dakota Department of Health (NDDoH) is advising patients and their families to use antibiotics only when necessary to further reduce antibiotic resistance, the spread of superbugs, and protect patients from side effects from antibiotics. During Antibiotic Awareness Week, November 18-22, the NDDoH promotes Be Antibiotics Aware, an educational effort to raise awareness about the importance of safe antibiotic use. “Antibiotic resistance happens when bacteria develop the ability to defeat the drugs designed to kill them,” states Dr. Noe Mateo, Infectious Disease physician and consultant for the NDDoH. “Antibiotic resistance does not mean your body is resistant to antibiotics; it means that the bacteria or fungi are resistant to the antibiotics.” Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest public health challenges of our time. Each year in the U.S., at least 2 million people get an antibiotic-resistant infection and at least 23,000 of those people die. It is important that everyone ensures these life-saving drugs will be available for future generations. The NDDoH asks patients to remember the following tips: • Do your best to stay healthy and keep others healthy by cleaning hands, covering coughs, staying home when sick, and getting recommended

• Antibiotics do not work on viruses, such as those that cause colds, flu, bronchitis, or runny noses, even if the mucus is thick, yellow, or green. • Antibiotics also won’t help for some common bacterial infections including most cases of bronchitis, many sinus infections, and some ear infections so don’t pressure your provider to give you unnecessary antibiotics that can contribute to drug resistance. • Ask about the best way to feel better while your body fights off a virus. Pain relievers, fever reducers, saline nasal spray or drops, warm compresses, liquids, and rest can reduce symptoms. • If you need antibiotics, take them exactly as prescribed and ask your provider if you have any questions about your antibiotics. When antibiotics are needed, the benefits outweigh the risks of side effects or antibiotic resistance. • Common side effects of antibiotics can include rash, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, or yeast infections. Talk with your provider if you develop any side effects, especially severe diarrhea, since that could be a C. difficile infection, which needs to be treated.

Cards cap a perfect 13-0 season with 42-14 Class A title win over Minot Ryan Langdon-Edmore-Munich takes a 25 game winning streak into next season

By JAKE KULLAND Republican Sports Writer

It has been asked by many doubters all season - what would ever happen if the Langdon-EdmoreMunich Cardinals football team ever got into a close game and how they would react? Something no one thought of, however, was what if they never had a tight game. The 2019 Cardinals proved that they are high and above the class of Class A 11-Man football this season. They proved that by winning the State A title for the second year in a row over Minot Ryan 42-14 at the Dakota Bowl held at the Fargodome on Nov. 15. There would not be much drama in this one, as they blew out to a 22-0 lead midway through the second quarter and led 34-7 at the half. This championship ends a phenomenal Langdon-Edmore-Munich football season with a perfect record of 13-0. Minot Ryan and Grafton were the closet any team got to the

Cards at 28 points. Cardinals head coach Josh Krivarchka won the Class A 11-Man Coach of the Year award for the third straight year. Langdon-Edmore-Munich had nine seniors: Jesse Fetsch, Sid Ullyott, Peyton Ullyott, Jackson Delvo, Brett Myers, Sean Gette, Noah Anderson, Hunter Feil and Wyatt Kartes play their final games in a Cardinals uniform. One thing in the championship game that was a little different than their other victories this year was that Minot Ryan tried to take away the Cardinals big play ability. Langdon-Edmore-Munich, however, showed them that they can play patiently if necessary, doing whatever it takes to win. Four of the six Cardinals scoring drives were nine plays or more. The Cards were so dominant in the game that in the first half, they held a time of possession advantage of 19:06 to 4:54, ran 42 plays to Minot Ryan's 10, outgained the Lions 313 yards to 78,

and had 15 first downs compared to zero for Bishop Ryan. The Cardinals also had their share of clutch plays in the game, with one of the biggest being a 21 yard pass from Simon Romfo to Cooper Zimmer on fourth down and 19 during the Cards second drive. Grant Romfo led the team in scoring with three rushing touchdowns and one receiving. The Cardinals great senior wide receivers, Jackson Delvo and Sean Gette, each capped fantastic careers with each getting a touchdown catch. Cards head coach Josh Krivarchka pulled out some trick plays to score two 2-point conversions, one on a tackle eligible catch by Sid Ullyott, and another on a half back option pass from Grant to Simon Romfo. On top of everything Simon Romfo was his steady spectacular self in the title game at quarterback, finishing with a double-double of sorts with 241 yards passing and 149 yards rushing.

On defense the Cardinals were led in tackles by freshman Carter Tetrault, who had a team high 8.5 tackles with six of them being solo stops. Sid Ullyott was next with five tackles, four of them begin solos. Grant Romfo also capped off his big day with an interception on defense. After the game Simon Romfo, who finished the season with 39 touchdown passes compared to just one interception, said it best, "We all put a lot of work in. The line in front of me did a great job, and all the receivers made some great plays. It feels great to win another title, and I'm going to miss playing with these seniors, but hopefully we can come back and do this again next year." What a great run it has been for Cardinals football, whose winning streak is now at 25 games going into next year. Congratulations to them on winning another title - more banners to hang in the gyms in Langdon, Edmore and Munich!

Lady Cards make it five Region 4 titles in a row

Extend their Class B record with the program's 20th State Tourney appearance

By Jake kulland Republican Sports Writer

The Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals volleyball team was on the edge of going to another State Class B Volleyball Tournament when they played North Star for the Region 4 title in Devils Lake on November 14. The Lady Cards got it done, dominating the last two sets to win the crown with scores of 25-21, 25-13, and 25-13. With the victory the Lady Cards won their fifth straight Region 4 Championship and will take a 37-3 record into the state tourney at the Fargodome November 21-23. They will play Region 5 champ Flasher in the first round. This is also the 20th appearance for the Lady Cards at a state tournament, which is by far a Class B record. Cardinals senior Callie Ronningen was named Region 4 Senior Athlete of the Year. Ronningen, Calyn Crockett, Kaitlynn Scherr, Lexi

Olson and Morgan Freije all made the All-Region 4 team. Jenna Hudson from Rolla won the Region 4 Coach of the Year honor. In their match with North Star, the Cards fell behind early in the first set, eventually building a lead of 18-11 then hanging on to win by four. The next two sets were much different, as the Lady Cards gained more confidence as the match went on, storming out to a 13-4 lead in set two then a 21-8 lead in the decisive third set to win both in convincing fashion. Ronningen proved worthy of being named best player in Region 4 with one of the best performances of her career in the title match, coming away with 21 kills. Crockett also had a fantastic night as setter with 32 assists, while Olson had a fine all-around match with six kills and a team high four service aces. Scherr led the team with 12 digs. Bearcats All-Region sophomore Danielle Hagler had a team high 17

of margins at 1-0. The Blades will have a week off before their next action which will be at invitational tournaments in Grand Forks on both the weekends of November 29-December 1 and December 6-8. The next home games for the Blades girls will be December 13 versus Bottineau and December14-15 against Bismarck. Again, defense was the word for the "Battle of the Blades", as both teams were ﬁnding it hard to even get a shot on goal. Langdon ﬁnally broke through with just over three

minutes gone in the second period when Abby Forest found the net on an unassisted goal past W-B goalie Falon Phelps. That would be all Langdon would need to get the win, as eighth grade goalie Jaelyn Buckman made that lead hold up stopping 23 shots for the game, 19 of which came in the last two periods along with three power play chances by W-B. The Blades outshot W-B 29-23 for the game with Phelps having 28 saves. There were six penalties in the contest, three on each team.

Anderson bags birthday buck

The month-long North Dakota holiday known as deer hunting season has come to a close. Langdon resident Scott Anderson not only got his deer for the 2019 season but harvested the 13 point buck on his birthday. Anderson was just about ready to call it quits for the day at his hunting spot in the Pembina Hills when the "Birthday Buck" came into his sights. Congratulations to Anderson and all hunters who were succesful this hunting season.

Like most people, when the phone rings - I run to answer it. Sometimes I do have trouble getting there before the caller hangs up. But unless the caller is a scam, a political advertisement or bad news - just making the effort to get to the phone is worthwhile. I have yet to decide what classification a caller the night of the regional volleyball games belongs to, but a young sounding male voice told me someone had given him my name and phone number, and he needed help with researching his family. In the next hour or more (yes, missed most of the Lady Cards game), he told me several times that he must be Jewish and Lutheran since that was the information included in his DNA. He might have already questioned Lutheran sources of information, but most of his questions for me had to do with Jewish settlements in North Dakota and particularly in Cavalier County. In other words, I maybe should have hung up after the first minute of the conversation, but I was curious as to why he thought there had been colonies of Jewish settlers in Cavalier County. He did have a reason for that belief, in fact, two reasons. One was Mount Moriah and the second was Mt. Carmel. In his reasoning both are mentioned in the Bible – actually in the first books of the Bible and, therefore, revered by Jewish, Catholic, Protestant and LDS (Mormon) congregations. At no time did he answer my questions as to his name, the family he was researching, where he was calling from, or who he knew that also knew me. There are many things I know very little about. One of those is DNA which does make a fortune these days for genealogical organizations with possibly the best known ancestry.com and “23 and Me”. The understanding is that each cell should have 23 genes each with its own specific name and function. Once the firms have received your payment, they will send you a letter or certificate telling you the race and characteristics your genes show and that you are probably related to a list of people you might read about in the newspapers or see on television. Ninty-nine percent of people are said to receive almost identical replies telling them of famous people who could be their “cousins”. This is because, while each person’s DNA is unique, you also share some characteristics with the world in general. DNA also identifies information found at crime scenes and sometimes will assist in charging the wrong-doer. At other times it is used to prove the innocence of a bystander. My guess is that neither a lock of hair, a swab of saliva or a drop of blood will show up on a microscope in terms of religious heritage, although it could place a certain individual as having Middle Eastern or Scandinavian heritage which might be construed as Jewish or Lutheran. To give this person the benefit of the doubt, I did some checking on both Mount Moriah and Mt. Carmel. Yes, both are mountains mentioned in the Bible and in religious heritage. Mount Moriah was the place Abraham went to offer a sacrifice when he believed God wished him to sacrifice his son, Isaac, according to the story in Genesis. On that occasion this journey up the mountain was to test Abraham’s faith, and God provided a lamb for the sacrifice allowing Isaac to

grow up and become the father of nations. Why this name was given to the specific location in Cavalier County (roughly four miles from Mt. Carmel) by early settlers is unknown. However, it is a hill near the Canadian border which was known to the fur traders as a burial spot and a place where priests traveling with the buffalo hunters would hold mass. In more recent years two types of burials have been uncovered according to newspaper stories. On the top of the hill were the type of graves where people using the trail from Pembina to the Turtle Mountains might have buried people who died on the journey in horizontal graves. Bones uncovered there were identified as from the fur-trade era or possibly the last two centuries. When gravel or rock was dug from the base of Mount Moriah other bones appeared, and in that area the bones were at least 8,000 or more years old with the placement of the bones suggesting the person had been buried in a sitting position. Burial mounds of that sort have been found from Ohio west and north across northern states and southern provinces of Canada. Pilot Mound and Star Mound are mentioned in that context as well as other hills or mounds in our general area. The mound shape originated when soil was placed over a sitting body and grew when more of these mounds were placed close together forming a hill as time passed. The tops of these hills were sometimes decorated with the skull of a buffalo which identified the hill as part of an old indigenous trail. Mt. Carmel began as a settlement of German speaking immigrants from Ontario with names like Koehmstedt, Schneider, Hell, Kartes and others included, many of whom have descendants in Cavalier County today. A priest from Olga came to offer mass in early pioneer days and is said to have suggested the name Mt. Carmel since the day of the first mass was a Feast of Mt. Carmel on the church calendar. More information is available in the Mt. Carmel Centennial Book. My memory is that Lawrence Kartes did quite a bit of research on the early church at that location. The church and cemetery land were given by Lawrence’s great-grandparents who were among the early burials at that location. In many visits with Lawrence and his family members no mention was ever made of this being a Jewish settlement, so that information was passed on to the anonymous caller. Since Lawrence is no longer living, I also called other long-time Mt. Carmel residents who verified this as similar to the stories they grew up knowing. The caller then began talking about a Jewish settlement near Devils Lake, and like many readers I did remember a book by Rachel Calof whose family had settled near the Starkweather area. Their family had a difficult time adapting to pioneer North Dakota. Today, there are thought to be no Jewish farmers in that area, but there is an old historic cemetery. Signs pointing to its location can be seen when driving west from Edmore on Highway 17 or east from Highway 20. The actual location is south of Highway 17. You can also read Rachel’s book which is in the North Dakota Room at the Cavalier County Library. Both the Calof group and other groups of Jewish settlers who arrived in the 1880s appear to have been sponsored, at least in part, by the Jewish Agricultural Aid Society headquartered in New York which began sending groups of settlers west following

the Civil War. At least two wagon trains are remembered as coming with cavalry troops and spending time at forts along the way. The Aid Society was funded, in part, by a wealthy man who may also have had railroad interests since many of the settlers came by rail and on census records listed their occupation as railroad construction. They did, however, file on homestead land and prove up their claims before continuing west to Spokane, Seattle and Vancouver when rail lines reached those points. Only limited aid was offered later settlers with much of that evaporating with the bank failures and depression years. A second book I should have recommended to the caller, but could not recall the title while on the phone, would have been one of the books written by Robin Silverman of Grand Forks. Langdon area people got to meet and visit with Robin when she published her first book “The Ten Gifts”, and many local people also purchased a later book “Something Wonderful is About to Happen”, which includes stories of people we knew and remembered. Robin, at that time, was president of the Jewish group in Grand Forks and wife of the owner of Silverman’s Store located in Grand Forks for many years. The caller was sure there had been many groups of Jewish settlers who had come to North Dakota, and he may have been correct. Today there are only four synagogues in our state: Fargo, Grand Forks, Bismarck and Minot. In general, Jewish settlers became businessmen, politicians, bankers and so on rather than generational farmers. Their names are still on some of the companies they founded such as the Herbst and Stern businesses. In the early 1900s many original Jewish settlers left their farms and became peddlers going from farm to farm. Later they went on to study law; some became professors in area colleges and others moved to cities in surrounding states and began businesses there. The best historical record of Jewish settlements in North Dakota can be found in Father William Sherman’s book “Plains Folk,” published in 1988. He has also written or written with other authors newer books on North Dakota and its ethnic history which may be found in the North Dakota Room. Most of the references on the internet quote from Father Sherman, but his original writing is worth consulting for its illustrations, maps and additional information. One of the interesting aspects that I noticed is that the references in North Dakota histories rarely mention Jewish settlements except to refer the reader to Germans from Russia or the Ukraine. Many Germans from Russia and other former or present-day Eastern Europe nations did settle in North Dakota but belonged to other religious groups such as Catholics, Mennonites and Ukranian Orthodox churches. Those are reflections of their years spent in colonies under Russian rule before leaving for America. There are two or three other known Jewish cemeteries in North Dakota with one near Ashley mentioned in several places although that site had no burials before 1913 and apparently none since 1932. That cemetery served Jewish settlers in the Ashley and Wishek areas. Maybe one day the editor of the Ashley and Wishek newspapers will write a book about life at that settlement. As it happens, that newsman is married to a lady remembered as a beautiful redhead who, years ago, worked at the Cavalier County Republican.

Soybean Yield Response to Phosphorus at Three Planting Dates Objective To determine whether phosphorus (P) fertilization has an impact on soybean yields at the CREC and if the yield response is affected by planting dates. Method Two soybean trials were conducted at the CREC in 2019, one under irrigation and the other under dryland conditions. The three planting dates were: • Early (May 11) • Normal (May 24) • Late (June 8) The early planting date signifies a period from late April to midMay, when less than 25% of soybean farms would have planted in North Dakota (ND). The P treatments were 0 (also called control), 20 and 40 lbs P, applied and incorporated prior to planting.

The P soil test (Olsen) level under irrigation was medium (9 ppm = 18 lbs P/ac) and dryland was low (7 ppm = 14 lbs P/ac) based on P recommendation for soybean in ND. Results • Average yield was 66 bushels under irrigation (about 8 bushels less than average) and 62 bushels on dryland (at least 10 bushels greater than average) for the site. • Yields were significantly improved by P application and planting dates under dryland. Planting before the end of May (May 11th or 24th) resulted in significantly greater yields than planting in June (Figure 1). Adequate late summer and fall rainfall with low average temperature likely explains why

teracted with P rates. This means that significant effects of P on yields differed by planting dates. With early planting, 20 lbs of P improved yields by 3 bushels compared to the control, while yields were not different under normal planting date. Meanwhile, at late planting, 40 lbs P lowered yields by at least 3 bushels compared to either 0 or 20 lbs P (Figure 2). • Compared to results from the previous two years (2017 and 2018), this was the first year that yields improved significantly from P application, and at early planting. This was

CenDak Cooperative sponsors LRSC Precision Agriculture Center CenDak Cooperative has donated $30,000 to Lake Region State College’s new ag education building project. With the gift comes the opportunity to name one of the office suite areas of the new center. “At CenDak Cooperative, we see the benefit and value of having such an amazing educational facility so close. We are proud to be a part of this exciting project,” said Tony Gratton, CenDak General Manager. CenDak Cooperative, with locations in Niles, Leeds, New Rockford, Maddock and Harvey, provides agricultural producers with the products relied upon in agriculture including fertilizer, seed, chemicals, fuel, and grain marketing. LRSC President Doug Darling said support from producers and the agriculture industry confirms the need for the new ag education facility at the college. “Support for the Hofstad Agriculture Center has been astounding. To see backing from producers and industry shows how important agriculture is to the region,” Darling said. The 2019 North Dakota legislature authorized construction of a new $3 million ag education building at LRSC. The legislation provided a direct appropriation of $1 million along with some matching fund opportunities and named the building for Curt and Annette Hofstad, long-time Lake Region residents and friends of LRSC. The new ag education building will provide enhanced classroom space and a shop more suited for working with today’s precision ag components and large equipment. With LRSC’s own test field right outside the new building location, students will have real world experiences and graduate with knowledge from the classroom and field. The Community College Foundation, which supports Lake Region State College, launched a capital campaign this spring to raise $1.5 million. The campaign, when combined with the state appropriation and other state match programs, will bring the college to its $3 million goal. The Precision Ag program at LRSC has continued to grow since starting classes in 2013. Recently, the ag program was ranked #10 by Precision Ag Institute in its top 20 list because of LRSC’s combination of industry partners and hands-on approach to instruction. The excel-

Prairie Fare: Kid- and adult-friendly healthful snacks can be tasty

“Would you like me to pick up some pizza for you?” I called down the steps to the half-dozen teenagers in our newly updated basement family room. I could have guessed the answer to this question. “Yes, cheese pizza and cheese bread, too!” my teenage daughter replied immediately. I was expecting them to say pepperoni pizza. “You don’t want any toppings on the pizza other than cheese?” I asked. “No, just cheese,” she said. “We have a vegetarian down here.” I think I heard them giggle. I suspect we have created the ideal hangout for teens. My husband and I may never get to use the area again. At least we will know where to find our daughter. For entertainment, they have a large TV, a separate gaming TV, two couches, several musical instruments, many chairs and a table to play games and, perhaps, do homework. Most teens are perpetually hungry, so I stocked the kitchenette with easy-to-eat, not-too-messy snacks. I opted for kid-friendly snacks with a nutrition twist. No, I didn’t stock the fridge with Brussels sprouts and broccoli. On this inaugural use of our basement, I filled the fridge with water bottles. The counter had a basket of 100-calorie portion packs of whole-grain crackers, multigrain chips, lightly salted whole-grain popcorn, and trail mix with nuts and dried fruit. Chips with guacamole or salsa would be a fun treat in the future, but tomato sauce might be tough on the carpet. My daughter made a pan of fudgy brownies before her friends arrived, so they had the welcoming aroma of chocolate as they entered. Next time, I will add string cheese, yogurt and individual applesauce containers to the fridge. Apples and tangerines would be teen-friendly treats, too. I could do some interesting nutri-

tion research with this focus group of kids. Trust me, I didn’t pop down to do a quick nutrition assessment of my daughter’s friends, although embarrassing her a little might have been fun. I won’t be the “weird mom” just yet. Give me some time, though. Snacks are an important part of the diet of kids and teens, who often are growing at a rapid pace. Unfortunately, many kids shortchange themselves on fruits, vegetables and whole grains, and drink too many sweetened beverages. Liquid calories can add up quickly. One can of pop (12 ounces) has up to 170 calories and no nutrients, plus sometimes a lot of caffeine. You can replace pop with more healthful options, such as water, low-fat/fatfree milk or 100 percent juice. Flavor-infused water and/or sparkling water with a squirt of juice are other options. These beverages provide children with the hydration and nutrients they need to grow and develop properly. Consider these 100-calorie snack options with a kid-friendly twist: 1 cup of raw carrots with 3 tablespoons of nonfat dressing, 10 grapes with 2 tablespoons of cream cheese fruit dip, half an English muffin (or half an apple) with a teaspoon of peanut butter or sunflower seed butter. Teaching kids to be comfortable preparing food for themselves also is an important part of parenting. Here are some basic rules for keeping kids safe in a kitchen: • Lay out specific rules so they know what they are allowed to do. • Teach them how to retrieve items from the toaster safely if the items become stuck. (Do not stick in a utensil while the toaster still is plugged in. Unplug it and allow it to cool first.) • Make sure they know metal and microwaves don’t mix.

• Supervise them when using an oven. • Teach them to wash their hands properly. • Teach them to clean up after themselves. Next time, I need to reinforce the last tip on the list. I know a little “cleanup” song we all could sing. Yes, that would embarrass my daughter. For more resources about snacks and food preparation, see https:// www.ag.ndsu.edu/publications/ food-nutrition/myplate-resources to view more after-school snacks for kids and teens. See https:// www.ag.ndsu.edu/familytable to subscribe to a free monthly newsletter and be eligible for prizes on Facebook. This fun, do-it-yourself snack is courtesy of the Midwest Dairy Council. Pizza Dip 1 (6-oz.) package light cream cheese, softened 1/2 c. light sour cream 1 tsp. oregano 1/2 c. pizza sauce 1 c. shredded low-moisture, partskim mozzarella cheese 1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese 1/4 c. diced red peppers 1/4 c. diced green onions Whole-wheat breadsticks or crackers Combine cream cheese, sour cream and oregano in bowl. Stir until smooth. Spread evenly into a small pie plate or 8- by 8-inchsquare pan. Top with pizza sauce, cheese, peppers and onions. Bake at 350 F for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve warm with breadsticks or crackers. Makes five servings. Each serving has about 210 calories, 13 grams (g) fat, 10 g carbohydrate, 13 g protein, 0 g fiber and 380 milligrams sodium.

Cavalier County Commission Proceedings

Cavalier County Republican

November 5, 2019 On November 5, 2019, at 8:30 a.m. the Board of Commissioners of Cavalier County, North Dakota, met at the Cavalier County Courthouse in regular session. David Zeis was not present. The meeting began with the Pledge of Allegiance. Vice Chairman Nick Moser called the meeting to order and proceeded as follows: Moser asked if there were any changes to the agenda. After two items were added to the agenda, Greg Goodman made a motion to approve the agenda, seconded by Austin Lafrenz; motion carried. Austin Lafrenz made a motion to approve the minutes, seconded by Greg Goodman; motion carried. Greg Goodman discussed the Vang District purchasing bulk DEF fluid. It was decided to check with the other districts to see if this was something they could also do. Safety vests for the roadmen were discussed. It was suggested to ask Scott Stewart, State’s Attorney, if they could sign a waiver if they choose not to wear the vests. Stanley Dick made a motion to transfer $19,000.00 from Special County Highway Fund to Road and Bridge Fund, seconded by Austin Lafrenz, motion carried. Greg Goodman made a motion to transfer $3,357.00 from Road and Bridge Fund to Road and Bridge Equipment Replacement Fund, seconded by Stanley Dick, motion carried. Austin Lafrenz made a motion to transfer $883.30 from Road and Bridge Fund to Road and Bridge Equipment Replacement Fund, seconded by Greg Goodman, motion carried. Stanley Dick made a motion to transfer $8,833.03 from Road and Bridge Fund to Road and Bridge Excess Levy Fund, seconded by Greg Goodman, motion carried. There was discussion on the need to run the gravel reclaimer on all of the county roads in the spring. Mark Schneider was in attendance and asked if this was something that could be done with the leased tractors rather than the motor grader. The commissioners stated they would look into it, but that they do not have a reclaimer that would work behind the tractor as of now.

Terry Johnston, Road Supervisor, met with the commissioners and discussed tractor leases; minor structures now entered into GRIT program; the disaster declaration and whether or not the commission wanted him to do anything more with it. It was decided to leave it in place in case there is flooding in the spring. Culverts at Cole’s Crossing were discussed and possible solutions for the large culvert needing to be replaced. Nick Moser discussed the need for gravel on County 23 in District 1 next year. Storage of the oil distributor was discussed. Austin Lafrenz stated he had a storage unit available for $75 per month which would be large enough. The commissioners were in agreement. It was suggested checking with Phil Wold to see if he wanted to use the oil crew dually pickup for checking roads through the winter. There was discussion on hiring David Nickerson to fill in as motor grader operator in District 1, as needed, for part of December and January. Greg Goodman made a motion to temporarily hire David Nickerson, as needed, for part of December and January, with compensation at $25.00 per hour, seconded by Austin Lafrenz, motion carried. The commissioners agreed to proceed with pre-employment drug and alcohol testing and background check. At 9:35 a.m. Stanley Dick made a motion to recess for the hearing on the CHS request for reduction of taxes, seconded by Austin Lafrenz, motion carried. At 9:50 a.m. Greg Goodman made a motion to close the hearing and reconvene the commission meeting, seconded by Austin Lafrenz, motion carried. During the hearing, Jason Edwards and Travis Peterson, on behalf of CHS, were given the opportunity to present their proposal for payments in lieu of taxes for the new fertilizer plant in Elgin Township. Stephanie Bata, Tax Director, clarified that CHS did not qualify for a tax exemption, as determined by the Department of Commerce, and that their request was for payments in lieu of taxes. Bata further explained that this request had to be for a specific dollar amount. The commission thanked

CHS for investing in Cavalier County, but felt it would not be fair to the competing businesses to grant their request. Stanley Dick made a motion to deny the CHS request for a 50% decrease in taxes for ten years, seconded by Austin Lafrenz. A roll call vote was taken, with all voting “yes” to deny the request. David Zeis was not in attendance to vote. The snowplow operator hours for the October snowstorm were discussed, due to the fact that the snowplow operators do not start seasonal employment until November. Greg Goodman made a motion to pay the hours incurred at $25/ hour, seconded by Stanley Dick, motion carried. Agenda items for the next meeting were discussed, to include the road foreman position; blading and snow removal for townships; GPS units for motor graders/trucks. Rent for the Sarles shop and snow removal/blading for Sarles City were discussed. It was decided to continue to pay Sarles City for renting their shop and continue to charge the city for any blading or snow removal. One emergency snow route would be provided to the city, which would have to be designated. The commissioners did not feel it would be fair to the other cities and townships if they did not charge Sarles for these services. The Social Service zone agreement was reviewed, appointing Jill Denault and Twila Novak as co-directors until a zone director is hired. In the meantime, Denault will be the lead director for the zone. Austin Lafrenz made a motion to approve the Cavalier County Zone Agreement, seconded by Greg Lafrenz, motion carried. Indirect cost reimbursements from Social Welfare to County General were discussed. It was decided to review it again in December. Greg Goodman made a motion, seconded by Austin Lafrenz to review and approve the following audit of claims; motion carried: RAMADA BISMARCK HOTEL, SOCIAL SERVICES________ 357.20 COMPUTER EXPRESS, COMMISSIONERS__________________ 59.00 ANITA BEAUCHAMP, CLERK____ _________________________ 133.40

Locals successful in keeping Maida Port of Entry hours the same By Melissa Anderson Republican Editor Another wave of hour changes at ports of entry along the border between the United States and Canada will be impacting the area. It was announced in October that the ports of Antler, Carbury and Maida were identified for modification of operational hours to realign resources to workload according to CBP. “Minimal traffic after 5 p.m.,

In December of 2018, two other ports along the border in the area had their hours reduced as well, Sarles and Hannah. At the time, the CBP justified the time change at those ports because the ports now facing time changes would be open until 10 p.m. With these additional
