F&G Proposes Sage-Grouse Season Fish and Game is seeking public input on sage-grouse hunting proposals. Upland bird managers will present sage-grouse hunting season recommendations to the Idaho Fish and Game Commission when Commissioners meet August11 in Idaho Falls. Recommendations follow the hunting season and baglimit guidelines as laid out in the state plan for sagegrouse. The guidelines compare the current threeyear running average of male sage-grouse counted at leks (breeding sites) from 1996-2000 when Idaho began intensified surveys statewide. Current sage-
grouse lek data indicate that many populations could be hunted at the “Restrictive” level. The guidelines also allow the flexibility to consider local issues of concern, such as insufficient data, isolated populations or impacts of wildfire and West Nile virus. Sage-grouse are proposed for listing under the federal Endangered Species Act, primarily due to habitat loss from such things as wildfire and invasive plants like cheatgrass. Candidate species are currently under state management and hunting sage-grouse is legal. Sage-grouse experts
have determined that carefully regulated hunting is consistent with conservation of the species and Fish and Game closely monitors sage-grouse annually to ensure hunting will not compromise the population. The public comment period is July 17 to August 2. Please visit a regional Fish and Game office for specific information on sagegrouse hunting, the season proposals and to provide comments. You can also learn more and provide comments at: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/content/ public-involvement

obituary Orlen Dale Bailey
Orlen Dale Bailey, 76, a resident of Buhl, passed away Tuesday, July 14, 2015 at the home of his step-sister, Mary Fullmer in Gooding. Dale was born March 14, 1939 in Boise, Idaho to Everett Orlen and Gertrude Young Bailey. His early years were spent at the Eagle Island State Fish Hatchery and later at the Twin Falls State Fish Hatchery. He was part of the class of 1957 at Twin Falls High School. After high school, Dale joined the United States Army. Later, he was employed by a cement company in the Mojave Desert in California. He retired from there as a heavy equipment operator. Dale is survived by 2 step-sisters, Mary Fullmer, and Alta (Dale) Harris, all of Gooding; 1 step-brother, Ken (Ruth) Harmison, of San Antonio, Texas; 2 first cousins, Gary and Clayton Sullivan and families, of Boise; 2 step-children, Diane (Jack), and Mike, all of Florida; and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; 2 sisters; and his wife Lucille. The family would like to extend a special thank you to the staff of Horizon Home Health and Hospice for their care of Dale. No public services are planned.
Gooding Historical Society In June of 1912, there was a train wreck on the King Hill Grade, but you won’t find any mention of the event in the various Twin Falls papers of that time, or even the Gooding Leader. The only paper that mentioned anything about the accident was THE WEEKLY TIMES published in Bliss. The Gooding historical Society would like to find more copies of the THE WEEKLY TIMES since they seemed to have reported on news that nobody else did. If you have a copy or know where copies of this paper might be found, please contact the Gooding Museum at 208-934-5318 or sent an email to: gchstoponis@yahoo.com

Collection Day
the Courier News ~ 888-934-1862
by The Camas Bug Crew
As Colby’s alarm clock went of at 4:00, this young man rolled out of bed. Half asleep he walked down the stairs to get ready for the day. When he got out of the shower he realized today was the big day, the day he would become a man and collect bugs for the greater good of America. He heard the car drive up outside and ran out to join the others from the Bug Crew. They were headed to Rexburg, Idaho to collect aphthona bugs to be distributed throughout the state. The Aphthona complex consists of six different species all with a similar biology. The larval stage is the most destructive to leafy spurge. Aphthona larvae feed on fine and lateral leafy spurge foots, impairing the roots and lateral leafy spurge roots, impairing the roots and preventing moisture and nutrient up take. Larval root feeding provides entry points for disease. Aphthona larvae may be found in infested leafy spurge roots from July to early spring of the following year. Aphthona pupates in the soil near the leafy spurge roots with adultery emergence occurring in June, July, and August. Adult aphthona feeding reduces leafy spurge’s ability to make sugars for root reserves. The larva stage of aphthona is the most destructive to leafy spurge. The larva feed on the soft root of the leafy spurge, impairing the plant from collecting nutrients. Adults emerge in June and July and reproduce in July. The bug crew arrived at Carter Preserve 8 miles west of Rexburg at about 9:30. They had strategically planned it this way because aphthona are extremely active in the middle of the day. By noon the crew had 75,000 bugs, a good start for a successful day. This area has a unique history. In the 1970’s millions of tons of silt and sludge covered the valley and destroyed the native plants. It didn’t take long for the leafy spurge to take root on this rich , fertile soil. For the last twenty years, spurge reigned supreme until the aphthona flea beetle was introduced. Now this area’s spurge, or what is left of it, is stunting. There is a perfect amount of spurge, though wilted and sickly, to become an insectery. By two o’clock in the afternoon the bug crew had netted 133 thousand bugs. The aphthona were separated from other bugs and debris by a strainer system. These bugs do not like to be confined so they launch themselves out of the wire mesh and into a collection box. The bugs are further divided into containers with 2,000 bugs in each. These are then distributed to government agencies throughout the state to be put on leafy spurge infestations. The drive back to Southern Idaho was quiet as everyone fell asleep from the day’s labor. The windy road through Craters of the Moon rocked the crew in their slumber. It is days like this that remind Colby of the weighty work the crew does in helping to keep Idaho native and beautiful.

Wendell Holds All-School Reunion
The Wendell High School Alumni Association sponsored an All-School Reunion at the school on July 10-11. Attendees came from as far away as Russellville, AL and Prince George, VA to join with old classmates and celebrate the activities of youth and learning. Wendell High School was established in 1908 and has seen over 20,000 students pass through its halls in the last 107 years. Announcements were sent to over 2000 former students and over 200 attended. The All-School Reunion is held every 3 years and the youngest attendee this year was Maria Gabiota of Twin Falls who graduated in 1979. The class of 1942 was the oldest in attendance, represented by Velma Lancaster of Wendell, and Ruth Amon of Pocatello. Marilyn Brown McPeters of Prince George, VA was the person traveling farthest to attend with her twin sister, Carolyn Sliman from Gooding. The class of ’56 was represented by the most former students in attendance with 17. Two former teachers attended, Mrs. Donna Lee Weed who taught 2nd grade and was happy to find two of her former students in attendance, and Jim Kemp, who taught in 1961. Individual class reunions were held by the classes of ’65, ‘56, ‘55 and included a reunion of the Orchard Valley 2room school students whose first ever reunion was attended by 7 former classmates. As the former students left the festivities loaded with class pictures and a DVD of the history of the school, they were filled with memories of days gone by and the satisfaction of having reconnected with many friends and acquaintances of the past. The next scheduled reunion will be held in 2018.

Minidoka National Historic Site
Now Accepting Comments On Development of Visitor & Administrative Facilities Superintendent Judy Geniac has announced the continuing development of visitor and administrative facilities at Minidoka National Historic Site. Since last fall, the park has been planning for rehabilitation of the historic Herrmann House as a new administrative facility and for rehabilitation of the camp’s remaining warehouse as a visitor contact station. Upon completion, the proposed visitor contact station would help to improve visitor appreciation and understanding of the WWII incarceration of innocent U.S. citizens. The facilities would also provide shelter and permanent restrooms. The Farm-in-a-Day (Herrmann) House would provide for National Park Service offices. It would also serve as a place for visitors to obtain information pending completion of the visitor contact station. Both projects are called for in the 2006 General Management Plan. “We want feedback on the proposed ideas to improve the employee and visitor experience at the site. We look forward to public input, as this is an important step in the environmental impact analysis process,” said Superintendent Geniac. Information regarding this project is available on the NPS website at www.nps.gov/miin. Those wishing to provide comments should submit them in writing. Public comments will be accepted through July 31, 2015 through any of the following means: Standard Mail: P.O. Box 570, Hagerman, Idaho 83332 Email: miin_public_comments@nps.gov Website: http://parkplanning.nps.gov/miin, under PEPC project number 57644.
