obituary
Joe Thorpe McCarter
Joe Thorpe McCarter, 85, of Boise died peacefully, Wednesday, November 25, 2015 at a local care center. He was born May 30, 1930 in Gooding, ID, to William and Mattie (Thorpe) McCarter joining a family of five doting sisters who claimed that his feet never touched the ground until he was old enough walk. Joe was raised on the family cattle ranch in Corral, Idaho. He was in the last class of 8th graders to graduate from Corral’s one room school house, and graduated from Camas County High School, where he lettered in football and basketball, in 1948. He spent a semester at the University of Idaho studying Agriculture, but missed the Camas Prairie and returned home to help his parents. In 1953 he was drafted into the U.S. Army and stationed in Washington D.C. where he served as an M.P. and in an Honor Guard which performed for military funerals and dignitary visits. In 1957 he met Mercedes Lolley at a birthday party at the Camas Prairie home of her aunt and uncle, Teddy and Levard Hanson, and they were married six months later in her hometown of Portland. When his parents retired to Hagerman, he and Mercedes took over the family ranch. In addition to ranching, Joe served as a trustee of School District 121 and on the board of Prairie Power, a rural electric cooperative. In the late 1960’s his interest turned to politics, and he became a delegate to the tumultuous 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. After gaining experience running some local campaigns, he served as Idaho Democratic Chairman from 1970-1974. He also served as co-chair of Gov. Andrus’s re-election committee in 1974.
Serving with all Gentleness & Compassion...
In 1976 he was the Western States Coordinator for Sen. Frank Church’s presidential campaign, and later served as the Western Regional Director for the Carter-Mondale campaign. In 1977 he and his family moved to Boise following his appointment to the post of Idaho Director of the Farmers Home Administration by the Secretary of Agriculture. At Farmers Home he developed an interest in computers, and in 1981 launched the computer startup Agricultural Management Systems. When he discovered that farmers and ranchers were not yet ready to embrace the personal computer, he taught himself to code and created accounting software that was used by schools throughout Idaho and Oregon. He managed his School Administrative Software company until his retirement in 2004. In addition to politics and computers, Joe’s interests were reading, storytelling, carpentry, genealogy, and the New York Times crossword puzzle. He also had a soft spot for all animals, except cattle. He was preceded in death by his parents; his son-in-law, Jim Farrar; and his sisters Marjorie McHan and Agnes McFee. He is survived by his loving wife of 57 years, Mercedes (Lolley) McCarter; daughter Kate McCarter and her partner, James Chaconas, Portland, OR; son Bill McCarter, Boise; and daughter Joan McCarter, Boise; three sisters Irma Petrick, Shoshone; Wilma West, Oakland, CA; Eileen Hanson, Jerome; and many nieces and nephews. A memorial service for Joe will be announced at a later date. The family suggests donations be made to the Idaho Youth Ranch or a charity of your choice.

Many times we take things for granted. Namely because of our situation, environment, or commodities at hand, we overlook things. We all know milk comes from cows. Some people in large cities have no clue where milk comes from. We actually see cows, milk trucks, and can see the end result in the store. Last Wednesday, just before Thanksgiving, I was delivering some potatoes and onions. A friend of mine had purchased several 50# bags from me to give to his friends. He just happened to be at one of his friends where some potatoes and onions were to be delivered. After circling the block three times trying to find the address of the house tucked between a couple of others. I was able to get the produce to the right house. The mailboxes covered with snow didn’t help my cause either. I carried in the bag of 50# potatoes first. I sat them on the floor. Secondly, I carried the onions in the guy told me to put them on the table there in the garage. He studied the bag of onions over with intent. He asked me if I had grown the onions. I told him I had not, I merely purchased them to sell. He noticed the onions were from Weiser, Idaho. “Are you from Weiser?” the guy asked me. “No, sir,” I replied. He continued with, “I have never seen a bag of onions this big before!” Immediately I asked him, “So, you are not from around here are you?” He told me he was from Connecticut and people would bring over an occasional pie. He continued to tell me that since he has been in Idaho he found that people in Idaho bring things in by the bag and in bags. To share a few moments with the gentleman about harvest was truly a good Thanksgiving feeling. Hopefully everyone had a good Thanksgiving. This year I had multiple invites for Thanksgiving Day. Where to go was a hard choice. I actually ended up a guest three times on Thanksgiving. To start off with, I had a Thanksgiving breakfast with a friend. That was a little different that the lunch or dinner schedule. But, who is to say everything has to be traditional. I enjoyed the change none to say the least. There is no specific time to enjoy good pie and taters how ever fixed. I had a mid-day lunch and enjoyed good fellowship with some other friends. For years I have not been able to attend with them and Thanksgiving was welcomed by all. To finish Thanksgiving Day I attended a dinner with some other long time friends. I ate lightly all day in order to make all three places. To burn off all the food, I ended up watching movies until early Friday morning. Thanksgiving doesn’t need to be on one day a year. We should give thanks year around, sharing our bounty with others. Let us continue to not overlook what we take for granted. This is my “Cup of Tee,” Thanks. Tee Hurd

The only condition being the brother impress on the sister that donor, a perfect stranger, not get credit as it was God who directed this acton, not the donor. God provided and donor acted on it. Sister has received the article and feels it has made her later years much more pleasant to look forward to.

When a “Medicine Show” came to twon, so did everyone else. It was a time to be entertained as well as to replenish their tonics, liniments, and other medicines. Entertainment depended on the talents of the crew probably singing, a jug, story teller, and a monkey, bear, or a trick dog. When a Medicine Show pulled into Fairfield advertising for two young men to wrestle a bear, Lon Baldwin and his buddy decided that if they could make a day’s wages in a few minutes, they would wrestle the bear for a dollar each. The bear was muzzled and had leather cuffs on its paws. The buddy flew the coop and Lon wrestled the bear alone. The bear groaned and moaned, and oh how it did stink. Lon didn’t throw the bear and the bear didn’t throw Lon. However, it must have been quite a show. He was paid not one, but two dollars. For the rest of his life it wasn’t unusual for someone to greet him with, “I remember when you wrestled a bear.” It was his call to fame. Legal Notices ~ Legal Notices ~ Legal Notices

...Tuition Initiative continued
does not include PLUS loans (cosigned loans beyond the Stafford limit) in these student debt figures. These loans are no longer the exception, but the rule, and often make up the majority of students’ debt load, 1 out of 10 students graduate with roughly $60,000 in debt. The proponets of this petition believe this makes it very hard for Idaho students to buy houses, start businesses, or have families in Idaho due to a mix of high costs, lack of scholarships, and low wages in our state. According to the group’s press release, political polls show overwhelming public support for the effort with 65% of Idahoans saying they would vote for the initiative. The poll also indicated that 80% of 18-29 year old voters would vote for the initiative.
