Area producers are getting into their fields to harvest the 2019 crops. While the focus is on finishing this year, hopefully in the black, the potential market for hemp is expanding rapidly. Around the globe the hemp market is still in the early stages of having substantial room for growth to occur. Recent market reports indicate that the estimated gross value of hemp production per acre is about $21,000 from seeds and $12,500 from stalks. North Dakota State University Assistant Professor in the Department of Agribusiness and Applied Economics David Ripplinger explained that while Canada and Europe have more developed hemp industries, they are still on the small side. “The United States has much it can learn from others, especially from our neighbors to the north,” Ripplinger explained. “They have experience with production, processing, and marketing that is a real asset to the domestic industry.” This is especially true for North Dakota growers as much of Canada’s hemp production is based in Manitoba, which has similar growing conditions. In comparison to the Canadian
and European growers, the producers in the United States have a new, large market for hemp products. “If growth is as expected, there is need for much more production which makes hemp more of a blue ocean opportunity,” Ripplinger said. The global industrial hemp market is projected to reach well
The possibilities of what hemp can be used for are incredibly vast, making the question of ‘what can it be used for?’ better phrased as ’what can’t it be used for?’ to narrow the scope of possibilities. Every bit of the plant can be used for something, from the leaves to the roots, letting nothing go to waste. Currently, the product
over $13 billion within the next 10 years. The push for hemp as a viable agricultural product is based not only on it’s many uses as raw material but also has environmental benefits as a renewable resource. Researchers across the country have found the fast growing crop to excel at reducing input costs as it does not require herbicides or pesticides and reduces soil erosion, making it a smart and lucrative rotation crop for farmers.
made from hemp that is getting the most attention is Cannabidiol or CBD oil. The oil is derived from the leaves that have highCBD low-THC hemp. The growth projections for CBD hemp are huge, with as much as 50 percent annual growth through 2024. This growth is astonishing but should be taken with a grain of salt as this growth is coming from a relatively small base. “The CBD market is bonkers
Some new and some familiar faces to greet students With area schools ready to open their doors to students for the new school year, the teachers within are just as ready to undertake their tasks of educating youth. While Munich Public School will have familiar faces returning to lead their classrooms, the schools in Langdon will have new faces and some familiar faces returning to new roles. Langdon Area Schools Linda Hope is a long-time Langdon Area High School educator who found retirement to be lacking the enthusiasm of high schoolers and the thrill of science. “I am coming back to teaching because when I did long-term subbing in the science department last spring, I really realized how much I missed it—both the students and teaching science,” Hope explained. “Also many of the students strongly encouraged me to come back. Mr. Christianson also encouraged me to return; he really knows how much I love science!” The educating veteran will be, once again, leading her students in scientific discovery. The areas Hope will teach are life science to 7th grade, 8th grade Earth science, physical science to freshman, and high school chemistry and anatomy. “I am looking forward to be-

ing with our youth. I love their enthusiasm and want to help instill in them the love of science and the love of learning,” Hope shared. “My philosophy of education is to be a life-long learner, and as I teach I also learn so much from the students. They have so much to offer. I am excited and can hardly wait to be back in the classroom!” Wendy Lorenz will be instilling a love of learning to one class of kindergartners at Langdon Area Elementary School this year. The University of North Dakota graduate already has a few years of teaching experience having taught third grade at Sweetwater Elementary in Devils Lake before moving to the Fargo-Moorhead area. While living in Fargo, Lorenz taught kindergarten at Dilworth Elementary. “I’m super excited to be teaching kindergarten again! It has always been my favorite age group to work with. I am also excited to be teaching back at the same school I went to and that my kids now attend,” Lorenz said. As a kindergarten teacher, Lorenz explained that she believes it is very important to give students a positive first experience towards school and learning. Her goals for the year are to
have her students come excited to learn each day, ready to make friends, and learn how to be a positive part of the classroom community. “I am excited to be heading back to school soon, and I know it will be a great year,” Lorenz commented. St. Alphonsus Catholic School Samantha Hegg is originally from Thompson and will embark on her teaching career in Langdon. Hegg attended North Dakota State University for a time before graduating from UND this past May. She knew a smaller community was where she wanted to get her start. “After growing up in Thompson, I knew I wanted to teach in a small, close-knit community. I student taught in Langdon under Andrea Lorenz during my final semester with UND,” Hegg shared. “I have come to love the area and am excited to be part of such a welcoming community.” In her first year, Hegg will be teaching 4th grade and is looking forward to being in the classroom from the start of the year to the finish. Hegg is eager to meet her students and focus on building relationships and putting them first. cont. on page 3
right now. Farmers who have a good crop and market well this year could make a lot of money," Ripplinger said. While potentially lucrative, growing a good CBD crop is not easy. Hemp production for CBD oil is labor intensive from start to finish and should be “considered horticultural rather than agricultural”. Producers must research thoroughly to weed out bad genetics or contamination risks that could put an entire crop at risk. Over all, Ripplinger advises caution as he believes the nationwide excitement over CBD oil is overblown. “There is and will be a large market for the product. Many CBD growers have little or no experience with production or agribusiness, and they will have an extremely difficult time when supply catches up, which it always does,” commented Ripplinger. The other popular raw product comes from hemp seed oil. Nearly two-thirds of imported hemp to the United States in 2017 were of hemp seeds. The imported hemp seed is used mostly as inputs and ingredients for hemp-based products. Currently there are plants within the state of North Dakota and Minnesota that could process the hemp seed. “Growth for hemp seed oil is expected to be about 25% year cont. on page 2
Hope leads St. Alphonsus into the future
St. Alphonsus Catholic School will start off the new school year with a new administrator as Carrie Hope assumes the duties of school administrator. “As Derek[Simonsen], the past principal, made the decision to move to a different school he approached me and asked if I would be willing to take the position as principal (school administrator) as he knew I was pursuing my master’s degree in Educational Leadership. I happily accepted the position at the end of May,” Hope shared. An experienced educator with eight years total in teaching, two of which were at St. Alphonsus, Hope received her bachelor’s degree in Child and Family Studies from St. Cloud State University. Hope is now working to gain a Master’s in Educational Leadership from North Dakota State University. Prior to the previous principal’s departure, Hope was able to “learn the ropes and is also doing powerschool training for this new role”. With four youngsters of her own at home, a kin-
dergartner and three toddlers, the work-life balance over the past several months has made it clear that Hope can take on anything. “I have learned to balance home life, classes and schoolwork quickly. I take things one day at a time, but I have lots of support from our wonderful staff at school and my wonderful family at home that everything is working out really well,” Hope said. Hope has had the goal of having a career in education for as long as she can remember. For her, the joy of working and helping students learn, grow, and reach their full potential is very fulfilling. Hope has always wanted to work with children and help them on their path to success, but the idea of being a principal was one that wasn’t front and center for her. “I have talked about becoming a principal here and there but did not know if our life at home would allow it to happen. However, with a very supportive husband who pushed me to go for it, I am excited to cont. on page 2

LAS Board holds special meeting The Langdon Area School board held a special meeting on the morning of Monday, August 12 to discuss fees, security, and spending. The short meeting resulted in the board’s decision to raise the fees for activity passes by $10. The new costs for activity passes are now for adults/business $70; non-student athletes - $50; student athletes - $60. The cap for families has been set at $120.
Securing the schools has been a ongoing topic with the board. The current key fob system that is in place at both the high school and elementary school are not compatible with Windows 10, forcing the school to replace the system so it can function. The cost for replacement will be funded through the building fund. The board discussed spending limits for teachers in their class-
rooms. The decision was made to create a administrative roll in the process whereby a teacher must have their spending approved prior to purchase by the administrator. The limit for spending was set at $200. This new policy will take go into effect next year. The board also discussed ancillary staffing. After discussion, the board will make a full review of ancillary staff positions beginning in 2020.
Tempers flare at recent Langdon City Commission meeting The agenda for the recent Langdon City Commission meeting held on Monday, August 12 resulted in a full house of residents being present. The meeting lasted for over one hour, and in that time, tempers flared. The disagreement stemmed from the care and maintenance of the house located at 423 9th Avenue, Langdon, owned by Alex Chaput. Neighbors of the property have approached the commissioners to do something about the property not being maintained. The children of one neighbor are attempting to sell their parents’ property now that they are in assisted living. The property owned by Chaput, they feel, is a hazard. Several of the neighbors attended the meeting and voiced their complaints on the maintenance of the property as well. “That’s your job as commissioners, to take care of these issues,” one commented. Langdon Building Inspector Gary Bimler stated that, according to city ordinance, if the house has deteriorated more than 50 percent from new, it's condemnable and has to be removed. “If I was looking at it, I would guess it’s at that stage,” Bimler said. Kim Chaput was present and defended the property stating that the property is not a hazard and is being maintained. The commissioners asked if the house could be considered habitable, to which Chaput replied that he did not see why not. Chaput said that all the neighbors had to do if they had concerns was to talk to the Chaputs. Besides safety concerns, the biggest request from the neighbors was simply to keep the
property clean and maintained. Stanley Gendreau was present to again state that the condition of the property was unacceptable, and despite attempts at communication, nothing is ever done. Fellow neighbors agreed stating that as the property owner, Chaput should be aware of what needs to be addressed. “I can’t fix everything in a day, and the more Stanley complains, I’m not going to fix it,” Chaput stated. The Commission redirected the discussion to how the city is working to have the property’s condition and safety concerns addressed, either willingly by the property owner or through legal means with the state health department. Langdon City Attorney Quentin Wenzel explained that the rights of the property owner cannot be violated and, as such, protocols have to be followed by the commission. “I’ve never been in there.... if Kim is willing, we can do a walkthrough in the next few days,” Bimler offered. “We can certainly do that,” Chaput replied. The Commission decided to have Bimler inspect the property and continue with a follow-up at the next meeting. City ordinances were again touched on at the meeting. This time, the ordinances in question related to the recent change in North Dakota Century Code relating to shopping on Sundays. Wenzel advised the Commission to review the city ordinances relating to this and amend it to match the century code. The other ordinance discussed related to food trucks setting up in city limits and if the ordinance on peddler’s permits applies. The issue was brought

forward by Langdon City Auditor RoxAnne Hoffarth and Deputy Auditor Frankie Stremick following a locally owned food truck setting up to serve during the CaNDak. Information gained from those contacted in cities of Walhalla and Grand Forks found that locally owned businesses were not charged a fee to set up while those from out-of-town were charged a $10 transient fee. In Langdon, the fee is $25 and does not differentiate between a locally owned business and one from out-of-town. After discussion, Wenzel stated that as the ordinance stands all food trucks would be required to pay the $25 fee for a peddler permit each time they set up their truck. Most of the Commission was in agreement to let the ordinance stand, but the Commission does have the option to amend the ordinance to exclude locally owned food trucks from having to pay the $25 fee each time in the future. In Other Business • The commissioners heard from Moore Engineering’s Andrew Aakre on the progress being made with the current construction project as well as discussing where the city would like to go for future projects. • The Commission approved funding requests from the Cavalier County Job Development Authority Executive Director Shannon Duerr. One request was for up to $10,000 for the EMT class loan program. Duerr explained some changes being made this time around that would give more control to Cavalier County Memorial Hospital. Another request was for $15,000 to assist with a grant match for Frost Fire Park as they work to fund the addition to their mountain bike terrain park. • The Commission approved the annual funding request from the Langdon Area Chamber of Commerce.
Financial Corner with Sarah
Sarah Overby Financial Representative for Thrivent Financial Life insurance 101: What you Have college-bound kids? Now is the time to revisit legal and life insurance needs Are you the parent of a collegebound student? During this exciting time, you’re also charged with making some big decisions, especially when it comes to finances. That’s why it’s important to make sure your financial house is in order by thinking through life insurance needs and updating legal documents. Life insurance needs First and foremost, make sure you have the right level of life insurance coverage. No one wants to think about the unthinkable, but you might want to increase your own life insurance coverage or obtain coverage for yourself and your student if: • Your current coverage would not be sufficient to meet the surviving spouse’s other financial needs or pay off student loan debt. • You take out a Parent PLUS or home equity loan. • You co-sign with your child on a student loan. • Your current term insurance may soon reach the end of its term. Legal document needs Strange as it may sound, if a college student age 18 or older is hospitalized while at school and is unable to communicate, the parents might not automatically have the right to tell doctors and hospital staff what medical procedures to use (or not use). As legal adults, students over the age of 18 need their own advance medical directives, health care agent form and durable power of attorney for financial management, naming those who could legally act on their behalf. Also, if the adult student is not able to communicate for an extended period of time, the parents might not be authorized to move funds from the student’s investment accounts. Below are some key terms and ideas to discuss with an attorney to ensure you’re prepared in the event your child is incapacitated. Important Definitions: Advance medical directive – Allows you and the student to plan health care before being unable to make sound decisions. Health care agent form – Allows you and the student to appoint another person to make health care decisions if you are unable to communicate them yourself. Durable power of attorney for financial management – Gives
someone the right to make financial decisions on your behalf if you are unable to do so. Important Action Step: Consider contacting a qualified legal professional to draft an advanced medical directive and power of attorney documents for healthcare and financial management before your student leaves home. Keep a copy for yourself and make sure to keep a copy on file with the appropriate school authorities. Leaving for school is a new reality for both children and their families. By taking a few minutes to review your financial and legal situation now, you will be prepared for this new stage of your life.

Melissa’s Musings By Melissa Anderson What the WHAT?! When you work in providing news, staying up-to-date with what is going on in the world is kind of important. Lately, however, that task has been harder and harder to do, especially when there are so many opinion writers masquerading as reporters. It also doesn’t help that current events are so unreal that, for me at least, it has to be completely outrageous in order for me to differentiate between satire and real pieces. Case in point being that feral hogs ate Epstein and that they were attracted to his pheromones because he received “cheap” vaccines. That level of absurdity is needed, not only for comic relief, but also to actually make it clear to anyone that the article in question is, in fact, fake news. That being said, a recent Facebook challenge was to search “Florida man” along with your birth date. There were some doozies for mine, but by far the funniest was “Florida man saves dog, fends off aggressive coyote with coffee cup”. Yes, that is a real news story from Florida. The crazy headlines aside, the content of articles is also getting increasing peculiar. Most small news sources like the Republican and other small weekly newspapers are mostly sticking with relating actual news. Taking the “trusted news source” to heart, it seems the focus of “major”
news sources is to try and outdo one another in the ridiculous. I am not a fan of most major broadcasting networks that attempt to bring news to viewers 24/7, because it’s really not news that they provide. Here’s the thing, most of their broadcasting is commentators and pundits. Those people are voicing an opinion. They are providing their take on news and not the actual news. I hate that. It’s why the same news stories always vary so widely and often lead to confusion and fighting. Opinion news is terrifying. “It’s the terror of knowing what the world is about” is an accurate statement made in the hit song Under Pressure released in 1986 by Queen and David Bowie. It’s terrifying to know what is actually going on in this world today, but I think it would and should be just as equally terrifying to not know the current events around the world. Those that choose ignorance and fear over knowledge and acceptance are terrifying. No wonder aliens don’t make themselves known to Earth! Avoiding the satire and unreliable when it comes to news is becoming harder and harder. It used to be easy as there was always something outrageous within the headline that made it clear. Now a days....satire competes with reality as American news finds itself in a twilight zone and constant state of “what the WHAT?!” I can’t be the only one who thinks this, can I?

Safety is always paramount... Here in the office, we’ve been talking about farms and the fact that farming is a dangerous occupation. Some people refuse to believe that because farms are tranquility, they’re quiet and you are your own boss. Truth is, farming can be as dangerous as OSHA describes it, but if everyone is completely aware of their surroundings, a lot of accidents can be avoided. We’ve all done it. We all get busy and try to make things happen faster than they are supposed to happen. The other caution is with fatigue. When we get really tired, we tend to get sloppy and unfortunate events can take place. When I was a kid, I knew this guy my dad’s age who had a hook for a right arm. Back in the early ‘50s, he got his arm caught in a baler trying to unplug it and lost his hand and part of his arm. When he would come over to visit, it was as if he was proud of his “battle scar.” But that was a different generation and more people were involved in those types of accidents and injuries than they are today. With harvest upon us, it’s important to keep in mind there are PTOs running augers and balers and combines tend to get plugged in low spots. Then, there are hills. I’ll never forget June 2003. It was Hazelton’s Centennial celebration and everybody was making plans
Letter to the Editor: Overdoses are happening everywhere, all over the country. In our current society, the streets are filled to the brim with laced heroin that’s often mixed with carfentanil and other fentanyl analogs. Dealers are now adding it to street pressed pills, cocaine, meth, and marijuana too. Carfentanil was made in 1974 to be used to tranquilize elephants and other large mammals. It’s not meant for human consumption. Most of the time carfentanil cannot be reversed by Narcan, the anti-opioid overdose reversal drug used today. Someone who is exposed to Carfentanil can experience dizziness, clammy skin, shallow breathing, heart failure and

Upside Down Under for a big parade, all-class reunion and all the things that people enjoy at small-town festivals. But then we got word that farmer Duane Kiefer was killed in a farming accident west of town near the Missouri River. Duane farmed in some hilly country, and he was swathing hay on an incline with machinery that just had an individual back wheel. The incline became too great for the swather to stay on course. It tipped on its side and rolled down an embankment of about 30 feet, taking Duane with it and killing him in the process. It put a huge damper on the festivities because everyone knew him and most everyone liked him. This is theoretical but consider the height of cereal grain harvest. People are moving a lot of grain and often times elevators fill up to capacity before rail cars can get there to move it to market. When that happens, they start piling grain on the ground. So consider this. An employee is using a shovel to clean out of the nearly empty truck box after the hoist is raised and all the grain that is left is in the corners. The employee shovels one side of the box, and as he does that, he sees more trucks getting in line. So, in order to speed things up, instead of going around the auger or the truck, he leaps over the PTO to the other side to empty the box. Yes, it’s theoretical, but one wrong move during that scenario (he didn’t jump high enough, had frayed trousers or even a loose shoe lace) and that employee’s leg is gone. We don’t need safety courses, at least I don’t think we need safety
Dear Editor
respiratory depression leading to a fatal overdose. Carfentanil and other opioids are responsible for a high number of overdose deaths in the US every year. Addiction is a completely preventable condition. No one should have to die as a result of their addiction. Any addict who does ceases to be a son, daughter, mother, or father but instead becomes a mere statistic of our nation’s massive drug crisis.
courses. We just need to think of the possibilities if we are not careful and take the time to do it right and proper. It doesn’t matter how many trucks are lined up to dump their barley on the football field. There’s no doubt those farmers would rather wait it out than see trauma like a leg getting snapped like a twig. Enter ranchers and dairy farmers. In most cases cattle are docile animals and have no intention of harming the person who feeds them. Sometimes, however, they can get aggressive, especially Holsteins. They’ve been known to ram farmers up against gates, barns and fences. Most encounters with cattle cause minimal damage with the first thing coming to mind - a cow stepping on the farmer’s or rancher’s foot. Again, it’s an awareness thing. As long as we are cognizant of our surroundings, we should be good to go. Unfortunately, some people believe they are 10 feet tall and bullet proof and absolutely refuse to believe that a combine or swather can hurt them. They can! They’re machines with a lot more torque than the human body is capable of resisting. That’s why Walter Kiefer lost his arm so many years ago, and it was his son, Duane, who lost his life in that swather accident. Both Walter and Duane were good people and well- liked and respected in the community. They just had a sense about them to speed things up, and when that happens mathematical odds do catch up to you.

Munich FFA land judging team places second The Munich FFA Land Judging team placed second in the ND State FFA Contest held in Harvey. The team earned a gold award, finishing as the state runner-up team. The team was composed of Cordell Walters, Dawson Biby and Caleb Woodrowall – all earning gold individual awards and Dexter Biby, who earned a silver individual award. The team members evaluate four different field locations to determine the proper land classification. They must determine top soil texture, subsoil permeability, depth of soil, slope of the field, surface soil thickness, past erosion, wind erosion, water erosion, soil salinity, and surface runoff. After the members have evaluated the field for all those areas, the students determine which classification of land the field falls in to.

With the classification of land determined the students must check all the proper management practices needed for the field in the areas of fertility, mechanical treatments and conservation practices. Drew McArthur represented the Munich FFA chapter in the Advanced FFA Tractor Driving Contest held at the ND State Fair. Drew earned a silver award in the contest. The students must take a written test on farm machinery safety; they use an operator’s manual and answer trouble shooting questions. After completing these two areas the students must drive a tractor pulling a trailer through an obstacle course in as quick a time as possible while operating the tractor in a safe manner without hitting any obstacles.

Harvey Frederick Sand A memorial service was held at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, August 17, 2019, at the First Presbyterian Church, Bismarck, for Harvey Frederick Sand, 92, who peacefully left this world August 11, 2019. Harvey was born in Mohall, on January 20, 1927. At the age of 14, he entered a lifelong career, working in the family’s blacksmith/ welding shop. He graduated from Langdon High School (1945) and joined the 164th Infantry Regiment during the Korean War. He spent his military service welding tanks in Japan, protected by his mother’s prayers that he would never see war. He first caught Eleanor Coffey’s attention with a sneaked wink through the backseat window of her father’s car; they became bride and groom on June 27, 1954, raised five children and recently celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary. He honored the Lord and his community through his leadership in a variety of organizations including: the Presbyterian Church at state, local, and regional levels; Masonic organizations as Past Master for Lebanon Lodge, Eastern Star Grand Sentinel, and State Rainbow Dad; and the State of North Dakota as a twoterm Senator (1993-2000). Additionally, he received the Scottish Rite 33 degree. He was a generous man in many ways, picking up the tab, volunteering with the Langdon Volun-
teer Fire department, donating his O- blood, and anonymously sending flowers to each Langdon nursing home individual on their birthday. His hobbies included hunting, fishing, and pinochle. A life learner, Harvey also loved to teach others to better their circumstances, especially by spreading the Rule of 72. His love continues to envelop his wife, Eleanor; children: Rosellen Sand, Bill (Karen) Sand, Jennifer (Kelly) Rasch, Susan (Michael) Simonson, Steve (Tandra Schmid) Sand; grandchildren: Michael (Andrea) Sand, Joseph Sand, Katherine (Eric) Antonson, Carissa Rasch, Bryanna Rasch, Ellie Simonson, and Rose Simonson; and sisters Jane Jaffee and Lavina Henschel as well as many nieces and nephews and several granddogs and greatgranddogs. He was preceded in death by parents Henry and Rosie (Schnable) Sand, brother-in-law Larry Jaffee, brother and sister-in-law Shirley and Phyllis (Newman) Sand, brother-in-law Elmer Henschel, and nephews Terry and Robert Henschel. The family wishes to thank the Augusta Place staff for their love and support. Memorials are preferred to Rite Care Language Center, 1405 3rd St N, Fargo, ND 58102, or Presbyterian Disaster Assistance, 100 Witherspoon St, Louisville, KY 40202. Bismarck Funeral Home of Bismarck was in charge of arrangements. Online condolences are available at www.bismarckfuneralhome.com
Funeral services for Dorothy were held on Friday, August 16, 2019, at Zoar Free Lutheran Church, Hampden, for Dorothy Damschen, 93, of rural Hampden, who died on August 12, 2019 at Altru Hospital in Grand Forks. Burial will be in the Storlie Cemetery, rural Hampden. Dorothy Lucille Reynolds was born on April 6, 1926, in Lunds Valley, the daughter of Earl and Hope (Erving) Reynolds. She attended school in western North Dakota and later at Hampden Public School after moving to the area with her family. She graduated from Starkweather Public School. She met Frank Damschen when she was 15 years old. They faithfully wrote letters for over 4 years while Frank was serving his country during World War II, and they were united in marriage on March 10, 1946, at Zoar Free Lutheran Church in Hampden. They lived for a short time in San Antonio, Texas, returned to rural Hampden and began farming. They lived, farmed, ranched, and raised their family through the years at rural Hampden. She hosted many Good News Club groups and Bible studies in their home, and she always had a passion for sharing her faith and teaching others about Jesus. From 1986 to 2006, she and Frank made their home in Pelican Rapids, Minn., making many dear friends through the years. She especially enjoyed her years working part-time at the Pelican Rapids Public Library. She was an avid reader, a writer, and had a true love and enjoyment for people, so her job at the library was a perfect fit. Among the things she loved were visits with friends, hosting Bible studies in her home, and listening to her family sing and play music. She had a special talent for bragging about her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She always displayed great strength and joy,
even in the midst of life’s most difficult circumstances, and she loved to laugh. As she said, “If I didn’t laugh a lot, I’d cry a lot…so I might as well laugh!” She was a devoted wife, loving mother, dearest grandmother and great-grandmother, wise mentor, and special friend and neighbor. Her greatest desire, through both her life and death, was that people would come to know Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. She had an experience that changed her life forever when she made a decision to invite Jesus Christ into her life and live for Him. In a letter she wrote to be read at her funeral, she said, “In the many years since that night I have never regretted that decision. Jesus changed my life, all for the better. What can be better than living to [93] years old with peace in your heart, whatever your circumstances, and the security of knowing your final destination is a home in heaven.” She is survived by daughter Brenda and her husband, Larry, Halverson of Egeland; son Charles Damschen and his wife, Alice, of Hampden; grandchildren, Travis Halverson, Egeland, Audrey Stockstad, Fargo, Naomi Damschen, Bismarck, Charlie (Erika) Damschen, Iowa City, Iowa, Gabrielle (Vonjy) Razafinjatovo, Bismarck; great-grandchildren: Ava Stockstad, Cayce, Archer, and Callan Damschen; sister Doris (Richard) Davis, Tyler, Texas;and several nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her husband of 65 years, Frank; parents Hope and Earl; brothers Earl and Roy Reynolds; and sisters: Mildred Sellie, Alvina Fessenden and Joyce Plouvier. The family wishes to thank the staff at Altru for their very loving care and support for Dorothy and her family. Gilbertson Funeral Home of Devils Lake was in charge of arrangements. Online condolences are available at www.gilbertsonfuneralhome.com.

“The image of God is found essentially and personally in all mankind. Each possesses it whole, entire and undivided, and all together not more than one alone. In this way we are all one, intimately united in our eternal image, which is the image of God and the source in us of all our life.” John Ruysbroeck Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1:26–27 NASB: 1995 Update This quote by John Ruysbroeck paints for me the truth of the image of God in each of us. There is no argument, here it is, just an absolute statement of facts about something that is often debated. As we all know we are made in the image of God, but does that mean we are wholly gods? As you travel through your day allow yourself to treat everyone you meet as if you were meeting God. Would you treat any one different as you go through your day? Would you greet them differently? What are the lengths you would go to make
God comfortable? And if you believe we all have God in us, how would you change your day to day? John Ruysbroeck was born in 1293, in the village of Ruysbroeck, near Brussels. He became a priest in 1317, when he was twenty-four. For the next twenty-six years he served as chaplain to the church of St. Gudule in Brussels. During this time he wrote treaties opposing the heretical teachings of a woman named Bloemardinne. In 1343, he retired to Groenendael in the forest a few miles from the city with two companions to lead a more solitary life. The small group acquired a few more members and became, with the blessings of the local bishop, an official religious community—canons regular of St. Augustine. Ruysbroeck spent the remaining years of his life at Groenendael where he wrote the most influential of his mystical works. He died December 2, 1381. This historical work used without permission from: The Blessed John of Ruysbroeck (1293 or 1294 – 2 December 1381), “the Admirable” also known as John Ruusbroec, Jan van Ruusbroec or Jan van Ruysbroeck, was one of the Flemish mystics of the medieval Catholic Church.
Cavalier County Memorial Hospital & Clinics and the Cavalier County Memorial Foundation held a picnic on Aug. 8. They served burgers, hotdogs, sausage and salads, had bouncy houses for the kids, and face painting. All that attended could tour the ambulance, fire truck, police vehicles, the Valley Med Flight helicopter and visit with providers. Approximately $3,000 was raised at the event and proceeds will be used towards the purchase of a hematology analyzer. Photos by Lori Peterson.

Brush with the Bunch
On Tuesday, July 30th Laurel Brusseau gave a demonstration on the use of a glue gun in connection with art. Shown is Susan Danielson working on an angel with Frankie and Carolyn in the background. A glue gun is used to highlight the edges of our painting and in this case the wings and the angel‘s dress. You proceed to paint the background right over all the hot glue lines, which is cool by now and later coming back to fill in the area of the wings and the dress. It was a very neat process, and some samples may be seen in the Gorge Gallery window. I am using this method to do some trees on a painting I am working on now; it was a different and fun lesson. Thanks, Laurel. Strawberry. Our Brush Bunch painting day on August 6th fell on the same day as the Lutheran Ladies Luncheon which several Brush Bunch members attended. Our monthly meeting was held with President Leona in charge. Our display areas for September were drawn with Mary Ellen volunteering (?) for space #19 which is the larger space where you may show more of your work. Discussions on our Christmas dinner and Brush Bunch Art Show and Sale #49 in May of 2020 were held, and suggestions were made for a theme for said show. Many of us are anxious to paint something pertaining to the theme of our next show. Quiz: What fruit has the seed on the outside? Answer hidden in the article.

nor Reward program. With your help, Vitalant is the only blood provider to nearly 70 hospitals across the region. The blood supply is dependent on selfless donations from volunteer donors to ensure the lifesaving needs of the region are met. Vitalant relies on 250 people to donate blood each day to ensure the needs of our local hospitals are met. There is no substitute for human blood, so volunteer blood donors are vital to ensure a safe blood supply for our community. About 30 percent of Vitalant’s blood supply goes to cancer patients across the region, and one in seven people entering the hospital will need blood. Those relying on blood
in the region receive that lifesaving blood from Vitalant. Vitalant strives to keep a 5-day supply of every blood type on the shelf at all times to be able to meet the needs of patients across the region. Donations from O-negative donors, the universal blood type, are especially important this time of year due to increased accidents and trauma cases . Blood donation takes about an hour from check-in to refreshments. Donors can save about 20 minutes by completing their health history the day they donate on www.vitalant. org.

Jake’s take on sports
By Jake Kulland
High School Football season to get rolling Aug. 23 As we get going this week, the 2019 High School Football season is about to get underway. Aug. 23 is the opening date for all Class A 11 Man and 9 Man teams across North Dakota. The defending state champion Langdon-Edmore-Munich Cardinals are ranked number one the Region 2A Coaches Poll, which was recently released by the North Dakota Pigskin Preview publication. The Cards are followed by Harvey-Wells County, Rugby, Carrington, Grafton, WesthopeNewburg-Glenburn, Park River and Bottineau in the poll. The Cardinals, who enjoyed an unbeaten 12-0 record a year ago, begin defense of their title at home versus Northern Cass on Aug. 23. After playing at Hatton-Northwood on Aug. 30, the Cards will begin their Region 2A conference schedule at home against Park River on Sept. 6. A reminder that Homecoming and Senior Night will both be during Langdon-Edmore-Munich's last home game against Carrington on Oct. 11. For 9 Man Football, in Region 2 New Rockford-Sheyenne is picked first in a similar coaches poll, followed by Cavalier, St. John, North Prairie, North Star, Nelson County, Benson County, North Border and Dunseith. North Border begins their season at home versus North Prairie (Rolla-Rolette) on Aug. 23, while Cavalier begins at Larimore for a non-conference game on the same night.

One of the advantages of getting old (there are also disadvantages) is that sometimes you can remember a few long ago things. For example, I did know the term “swimming” as a child even if the town of Langdon had no pool. There were stories and pictures of an unhappy toddler sitting in a washtub of water beside the log house on the farm in Minnesota where we once lived. Someone’s photo album had pictures of a group of relatives swimming at a dam near Walhalla and later eating in the Walhalla Park. Langdon had only a small pocket park across from the courthouse which we sometimes visited while waiting for my mother to get off work across the street. But swimming was not really in our vocabulary. What we had was the coulee with its planks on rocks bridge and water of some depth most of the year. On hot days we might sit on the steps
Monday, August 19, 2019 - Page 11
at the house next door (closest to the path down to that bridge) and talk about how we wished the city would make the coulee into a swimming pool. Our neighbor, who was also the city water man and flooded the coulee in winter so we could skate, happened to come home on one of those hot days when the assembled children told him our wonderful idea. He had a good sense of humor so joked about the diving board extending from the roof of his porch out over the road, and we could land right in the water. We all had a good laugh over that. However, there were a couple of problems. One of those was Percy, a young boy who reportedly had drowned in that very same coulee years before. The date of this accident is not on Percy’s tombstone, but the fact that he was 12 years old is verifiable from the story of his family in the centennial book that says he drowned on their farm. That farm might have been south of where Mulberry Creek flowed through Langdon. A second problem was that the water in the coulee was shallow except during spring run-off when

Langdon Long Ago
it flooded, and it also was home to what we called moss and cattails. Today purists would call the moss algae and the cattails - weeds. In dry years the area might even have been called smelly. Older Langdon residents - teenagers or college-age at that time - did manage to find a swimming hole at the Old Res. The reservoir had been dug to supply water for the train from Langdon to Hannah so might have first appeared southwest of Langdon around 1900. Younger children were warned repeatedly about this dangerous place. Headlines in the Republican had recorded three young brothers, teenagers, we believe, from Austria who had been working in the harvest fields and went out there for a swim. One drowned. The other two now have grand and great-grandchildren in our area. Several other drownings surfaced when trying to trace Langdon graduates in 1976. Families or friends would say they had drowned at the Old Res- obviously, too dangerous a place to visit. Scout and church camping experiences included swimming options, but at that point our family had few actual swimmers. The required medical forms for me said “no swimming because of ear problems” and apparently we had not heard of ear plugs at the time. Girl scout camp introduced our whole troop to leeches which were plentiful in the water at Turtle River Park. Langdon scouts of that era may have clearer memories of the night the tent blew down on top of eight sleeping girls or the sunburns that blistered and peeled the rest of the summer. Church camp was at Cooperstown where the Sheyenne River that ran through the campground was just muddy enough that some swimmers took bars of soap into the water with them to hopefully avoid having muddy looking skin. Possibly the same could have been said of attempting to swim in the coulee by the potato washer in Hay Township. We got our first look at an actual swimming pool following World War II when a picnic of relatives was held at the Cavalier Park, and we had a chance to try out their pool. Visits there were few and far between, but years later the Cavalier pool was still a favorite destination for Langdon swimmers. And then in 1956 Langdon formed a park board of four in-
dividuals: Russ Schroeder, Howard (Duffy) Kelland, Richard Crockett and Mrs. Wm. Schefter. In 1956 married ladies were always listed under their husband’s name. I did not find information as to whether that group was elected or volunteered. Knowing them later years, I did remember they had all been enthusiastic about building a swimming pool. The first step was to purchase the land, and the spot chosen was a 20.3 acre plot purchased from Walter Ramage at a price of $1,000 per acre. Today we think of all the land now used by the park and pool plus the day care, Langdon Area Elementary School, and the baseball diamonds, original Ramage land. At some point the land now used for the high school and the football field may have been an additional purchase. The swimming pool opened in June 1959 in the same area where the current pool is located. To build the pool they had to remove a hill in the center of the park - mourned by children of years past who had used that hill to fly kites for years. In asking questions about the dates, I learned that current park board members “were not born at that time” so really were not sure. The first swimming instructor, and possible lifeguard and pool manager as well, was Helen Osmon. Several people offering comments for this column mentioned Mrs. Osmon as teaching them to swim, and all who knew her were aware the pool was one of her passions. In addition to building the pool, the first park board began landscaping the park and added tables and early playground equipment. From the beginning, they encouraged holding events in or near the park. The Legion building was once used as an office building for the missile years, and it is possible that camping in that area was added later. One of the current park board members mentioned they had been trying to research the park and found very little information. I was positive that the centennial book committee must have included the park and pool, but after several hours of searching nothing had really surfaced. The Jubilee Book of 1963 was checked with no better results. As a part of the centennial crew I was crushed - we would never have forgotten the park or the pool. The next day, with more careful study, I found page 68 with a small
paragraph written by someone with a more extensive vocabulary that listed the information above as well as a few features of the park no longer there. Page 68 also has two unidentified pictures which are worth studying. One is of the children at the pool on a summer day, maybe in 1985, taken from near the diving board. In the sky over the water is either a flock of large birds, a tandem diving team or a small airplane. The second picture is of the tall white Saturn Missile standing on what appears to be the treeless prairie with a few small houses in the distance. The next step had to be driving both up and down 7th Street to get the same perspective. What a difference 34 years makes! The missile still has an edge on the surrounding trees, but by next year it is possible the trees will be taller. Check it out yourself, it may bring back good memories. Asking questions led to related questions such as which was built first - the pool or the elementary school. The 1963 Jubilee Book listed the “new elementary” as opening in September 1959 with a kitchen and cafeteria facilities. The accompanying picture showed the “new” building which is now the Masonic Hall - not the right elementary school! It took a bit more digging. Thanks to Elsie Schrader’s book about teaching, which mentioned the many bond fund elections for building the newer elementary school, she recorded the election tally with the date the bond fund finally passed as 1964. Another note mentioned the school opening for classes in the fall of 1965. However, most people remembered that the pool in the park today is not the one built in 1959. A more modern, and we believe a warmer pool, was built at a later date. Suggested dates were 1991, 1992 and 1993. It is possible the decision to rebuild may have originated in 1991, the work been done in 1992 and the opening day in 1993. In the way public facilities are usually built there is probably a plaque somewhere with the exact dates and maybe the names of the park board in 1993. My guess would be that you might find Bonnie Olson on that board. There is a memory of her following in the footsteps of her father who served on the committee which built the first pool.

the day, which makes them difficult to see when scouting. The Economic Thresholds is an average of 20 to 32 larvae per square yard with insecticide + application costs of $6.50 to $10 per acre, respectively. However, thresholds may need to be lowered if larvae are feeding on maturing pods at high population densities. Fields above the economic threshold level should ideally be sprayed once the hatch is complete and when larvae are small about ½ inch. Apply a well-timed insecticide in early morning or late evening when larvae are actively feeding. High volumes of water should be used for good coverage of the dense canola canopy. Insecticides that are registered to control bertha armyworm on canola are listed in 2019 North Dakota Field Crop Insect Management Guide E-1143. When larvae are mature, 1½ inch long, they are close to the pupal stage, which is a non-feeding, resting stage. So, no insecticides are necessary this late in the insect’s development and the feeding damage is already done. Please see the NDSU Extension publication on Bertha armyworm in Canola: Biology and Integrated Pest Management E1347 (revised) for more information.

Project Safe Send brings in record amount of unwanted pesticides More than 260 tons of unusable pesticides – an all-time record – were collected and shipped out of state in the 2019 Project Safe Send collections. “This year’s total eclipses the previous record of 190 tons in 2015,” Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring said. “More than 350 North Dakota farmers, ranchers, applicators, homeowners and others took part in the collections.” Goehring said the results demonstrate a continued need for the program that enables people to safely and affordably get rid of unusable, unneeded or unwanted pesticides. The collections were conducted during July in 12 communities: Wyndmere, Ashley, Bismarck, Hettinger, Dickinson, Tioga, Minot, Harvey, Larimore, Langdon, Devils Lake and Valley City. Larimore recorded the largest col-
lection with 126,980 pounds. Valley City was second with 65,998 pounds of unusable pesticides. The North Dakota Department of Agriculture contracted Veolia Environmental Services, Blaine, MN, to collect, repackage and transport the waste chemicals to out-of-state incinerators. Project Safe Send is funded by pesticide manufacturers through product registration fees in North Dakota. “Project Safe Send is a recognized model as a means for the public to safely get rid of these chemicals and help ensure a healthy environment,” Goehring said. “The need for this program will continue, as more people learn how it benefits them and as more pesticides become obsolete and are no longer usable for current applications.”
New provision in effect for anhydrous mobile storage containers A new law that creates a licensing provision for anhydrous ammonia mobile storage containers went into effect on Aug. 1. A mobile storage container is defined as a U.S. Department of Transportation class MC-331 cargo tank, or an American Society of Mechanical Engineers code-constructed and National Board-registered mobile storage container, approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation, used for the temporary storage of anhydrous ammonia to be downloaded into a nurse tank. “Anhydrous ammonia storage facilities are very costly to construct
and are a huge investment,” Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring said. “Using mobile storage containers for mobile downloading into nurse tanks during the season provides farmers and dealers with more affordable options compared to building new or expanding storage at existing permanent storage facilities.” Goehring said the North Dakota Department of Agriculture will be licensing mobile storage containers for the purposes of downloading anhydrous ammonia into nurse tanks in the field. The licensing fee for a private mobile storage con-

tainer is $25 and the fee for a retail mobile storage container is $100. The licensing requirements pertain to both private farmers and commercial businesses. Only mobile storage containers performing mobile downloading into nurse tanks need to be licensed. Mobile downloading into nurse tanks out of a mobile storage container without a license is a violation. The new licensing requirements require approval from local authorities just like permanent storage facility licenses. Users will need to designate mobile downloading sites so local authorities are aware of where mobile downloading is taking place for emergency response planning purposes. Those who are planning to use mobile storage containers for mobile downloading into nurse tanks should contact Eric Delzer at the North Dakota Department of Agriculture at 701-328-1508 or 800-2427535 to start the licensing process.

TEARS (Together We Educate About the Realities of Suicide) Suicide Prevention Project will host its ninth annual TEARS Walk for Suicide Prevention on Sunday, September 15, from 1-4 p.m. at UND Wellness Center, 801 Princeton Street. Event registration will begin at 12 p.m. The walk raises funds to bring suicide prevention resources to Grand Forks and its surrounding region. The event also provides a forum for family and friends to remember loved ones who have died by suicide. This year the event will feature guest speaker, Craig Heisinger, Director of Hockey Operations, Winnipeg Jets, and creator of Project 11, a mental wellness program for youth in Manitoba. Every 15 minutes, someone ends their own life. Suicide affects families, friends and neighbors. More importantly, suicide is 100 percent preventable.

To register, donate or pledge, visit altru.org/tears or call 701.780.1828. One hundred percent of the proceeds stay in the community and region.
