BY DALE PEEL

The Pyramid

Sanpete community Boy Scout Troop 527 is holding a Dutch Oven Mutton and Sourdough Dinner fundraiser on Friday, Sept 24. The dinner will be held at Tifie Scout Camp at Mountain Dell Scout Ranch located east of Mt. Pleasant.

Seating will begin at 5:30 with dinner service beginning at 6. The dinner will include mutton, slow-baked in a

Dutch oven, Dutch oven potatoes, coleslaw, sourdough biscuits, with a choice of cobblers for dessert.

Entertainment for the evening will be furnished by Junction 89: The Band. Tickets are available for $15/ individual and $45/family. Tickets can be purchased at the door or in advance by calling or texting 435-250-4669.

Thomas at Bailey Farms 325 E 700 N, Ephraim Gary Cole 638 E 25 S 435851-6955.

The Scout troop consists of about 25 boys from Sanpete County. Its charter sponsor is Lions Club. The troop meets weekly and participates in monthly campouts. Its website is http://sanpetescouts.com.

This is a celebration of the sheep industry of Sanpete County and the men and boys who herded the sheep.

In years past there were numerous herds of sheep in Sanpete, from Indianola and Fountain Green in the north to Gunnison and Axtel in the south.

This tradition continues today.

A few generations ago, the sheepherders lived in canvas wall tents.

These were replaced with the iconic step-side sheep wagon/sheep camp.

In the camp was a small wood range with a cooking surface and an oven.

The herder’s diet typically consisted

Protecting your peaches

Q

uestion: What happened to my peaches? Everything looked good last month, and the peaches were beautiful. Now most of the peaches have dark spots and some look like they are spoiling under the spots.

USU My peaches looked EXTENSION nice a few days ago when I picked them and now they have rotten spots on them. Can you tell what’s wrong with them? Will they be safe to eat if I trim out they bad spots?

Answer: This looks like Coryneum blight. These deep decayed spots develop when nearly ripe peaches become infected. When peaches are infected earlier in the year, while young and green, the infected spots are small and look/feel like scabby freckles. Your peaches were probably infected during one of the rainstorms last month.

Coryneum blight is a fungal disease that can infect stone fruit trees and their ornamental relatives, but it is most common on peaches and apricots. Coryneum blight causes necrotic spots on the leaves that dry and drop out, leaving holes. Infected buds die, and twigs can be girdled and killed when that happens. Infection on the fruits that can look like crusty freckles or bumps if the infection occurs while fruits are young, or the disease may look more like deeper decayed lesions if the infection occurs on nearly ripe fruit.

Sometimes fruit that looks normal will show symptoms of the disease after harvest. The fruit may be more difficult to peel, but it is still safe to eat.

twigs, twigs with dead buds, and twigs with dark, sunken bark.

In the spring, spray the tree with chlorothalonil a few days after the petals drop from the blossoms, but before “shuck split.”

During the summer, keep an eye on the weather forecast and use protective sprays with the active ingredient myclobutanil or Captan when rain is expected.

In the fall, spray the tree with a fungicide that contains the active ingredient chlorothalonil or copper when 50% of the leaves have dropped from the tree.

Clean up thoroughly under the tree once all the leaves have dropped.

There are several different products you can use as protective sprays, but each has its own limitations. Copper spray can damage fruit; limit its use on fruit trees to before leaf-out or after harvest, but not while there is any fruit on the tree. Chlorothalonil can be used before shuck split and after harvest but not during the summer growing season.

Tips for National Family Meals Month

BY KATHLEEN RIGGS

Utah State University Extension family and consumer sciences professor

Are you among the minority of American families who eat at least one meal together every day? In today’s fast-paced world, eating Sunday dinner as a family is a great tradition, but it is a giant step away from more regular time spent eating and socializing around the table —

which was the norm just one generation ago.

Utah State University Extension’s Create Better Health Utah (SNAP-Ed) program lists a few of the benefits — especially for children whose families eat together five or more times a week as opposed to those whose families eat together two times or less each week: Nutrition and physical devel-

opment — Kids eat more fruits and vegetables, get a wider variety of nutritious foods, have lower rates of childhood obesity and make healthier food choices when they are on their own.

Emotional development — Youth are better able to manage negative emotions, are at less risk of developing eating disorders, and have more positive interactions

Utah OKs loans to help with drought SALT LAKE CITY — Gov. Spencer J. Cox, the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity (Go Utah), and the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food (UDAF) announced today that the Go Utah Board approved a proposal to deliver $5 million for an Emergency Disaster Relief (EDR) loan program.

Funding is coming out of the Industrial Assistance Fund (IAF), managed by Go Utah, and being delivered to UDAF to administer a loan program to help Utah agriculture businesses deal with the ongoing drought.

“Utah’s current extreme and prolonged drought conditions have been devastating for our agricultural producers,” Gov. Cox said. “These farmers and ranchers need real solutions and we are committed to helping in every way we can. Authorizing money from Go Utah will provide necessary aid to those who truly need it.”

Utah’s agricultural producers are currently experiencing the negative impacts of an unprecedented drought. With 99.4% of the state of Utah under extreme or exceptional drought conditions, the effects of continued severe drought place the viability of Utah’s farmers and ranchers and their agricultural and economic productivity in jeopardy.

“We’re proud and grateful to be able to offer this assistance to Utah farmers and ranchers,” said Dan Hemmert, executive director of the Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity. “We thank the Go Utah Board for approving this use of IAF funds. We’re happy to partner with the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food, who will administer and distribute the much-needed loans.”

The program’s purpose is to assist Utah producers by providing loan funds to help them address extraordinary circumstances related to drought. The program is to help manage production losses between Gov. Cox’s declaration of a drought disaster on May 15, 2021, and April 1, 2022.

There may be just a few coryneum blight infections on a peach, but it isn’t unusual to see many infections on one peach.

We normally have a monsoon season from late July through August. A rainy, drizzly day along with mild temperatures can provide the perfect conditions for the spread of Coryneum blight. The fungus can spread quickly from infected fruit to healthy fruit.

There are a few things you can do for your tree throughout the growing season to reduce or prevent this problem next year.

Take steps to prevent sprinklers from hitting the canopy of the tree.

Prune out and dispose of dead

of a good deal of sourdough. Sourdough pancakes in the morning and sourdough biscuits with supper. And of course, there was mutton.

The traditional combination of mutton and sourdough is delicious and savory. This mutton will be slowcooked in Dutch ovens and served hot from the Dutch oven. The values and skills of the sheepmen of Sanpete County parallel those of the Boy Scouts of America.

In recognition of its importance, September has been named National Family Meals Month. Why all the fuss about sitting down together for a routine that may only last 15-20 minutes? The benefits are actually numerous.

and they develop larger vocabularies — even more than those who read together with their parents.  Behavior — Youth are much less likely to use marijuana, alcohol or tobacco or have friends who use these substances.

They are also less likely to engage in other risky behavior such as premarital sex.

If a family is new to the idea of eating meals together, there will undoubtedly be a few challenges. For example, it may be unrealistic to go from zero meals together to one every day. So, set a realistic goal all family members can agree on — it may

just be Sunday dinner once a week, and that is a great start. If dinner isn’t the best option, perhaps having family breakfast time on Saturday may work better for you.

Here are some additional tips for making family mealtime a positive experience:  Plan meals ahead of time.  Schedule a set time for meals.  Involve all family members in the meal preparation and clean up.  Turn off the TV, phones and all other electronic devices.  Have pleasant conversation and leave discipline and other negative emotions for another time.

Additional helps are available online from Create Better Health Utah, includ-

Q: Does it matter whether I plant my garlic now or can I wait until late fall?

A: Garlic can be planted anytime between the middle of September and early November and will do well if it’s planted somewhere in that window of time. Garlic will grow if it’s planted in the spring, but the quality and yield will be poor.

Right now, you have an opportunity to do the good soil preparation that will give your garlic plants what they need to thrive and reward you with a good harvest next summer. Garlic does best in soil that is well-drained and rich in organic matter.

Work an inch of compost into the upper few inches of soil where you’ll be planting your garlic if you haven’t added any organic matter for the past year or two.

Carefully separate large, healthy heads of garlic into individual garlic cloves but don’t peel them. Plant the largest cloves, pointed end up, about 2-3 inches deep and about 4 inches apart. If you’re planting multiple rows, or planting

Garlic and shallots are best planted in the fall and require the same good care. your garlic in a block, make your rows several inches apart.

Shallots can be planted at the same time you plant your garlic. Plant them like you would garlic-unpeeled, pointed end up, and about 2-3 inches deep, but space them a little farther apart.

You won’t see it happen-

ing, but during the rest of the autumn your garlic cloves will be busy developing the root system your garlic plants will need next spring. Water deeply as the season warms up, provide nitrogen fertilizer in mid-April and late May and you’ll have a nice supply of garlic by early July.

ot Dog! Last Saturday night, I voluntarily shortened my life by 36 minutes. Some of you, who follow the news, and took note of the title of this column, may know what I’m talking about. I’ll tell you what I did. While at a football game, I ate a hot dog.

That single eating choice cost me 36 minutes off my life span time. Those are the minutes it takes me to pop a bag of microwave popcorn, make a chocolate ice cream Mountain Dew Code Red soda float, and watch a rerun episode of Jeopardy.

Where do I get this information? — from a University of Michigan study published in the journal Nature Food. The study is called “Global Burden of Disease.”

The researchers looked at 5,853 foods in the U.S. diet and somehow computed the effects in minutes of healthy life gained or lost.

Guess what was considered the unhealthiest food on the list? Of course, it was the hot dog! What was the highest ranked food? I wouldn’t have guessed it, but I’m glad for what it is — a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. By the study’s results, the PB&J sandwich could add 33 minutes to one’s life.

As I ate my hot dog Saturday night, I felt minutes of my life swirling down the drain. But I didn’t care. A good hot dog smothered in the basics of ketchup, mustard and pickle relish is hard to beat at a ball game.

When I say a “good hot dog,” I know that to some people that is a contradiction in terms. I have friends, who are not vegetarians of any kind, who would no more put a hot dog in their mouth than they would a burning chunk of lava. They consider hot dogs unfit for human consumption and get the willies thinking about eating such a thing.

Enter Joey Chestnut. I looked him up. Those of you who are fans of “competitive eating” (this is a real thing) would know of Joey.

He is a 14-time champion winner of the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. This contest takes place on the 4th of July on Coney Island and is televised by ESPN. Last time out, Joey broke his own record by eating 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes.

He has eaten an estimated 19,200 hot dogs over

Drought From A1

Crop producers may seek reimbursement for crop loss if they can document a 50% loss since the disaster declaration compared to their average production over the prior three years.

In addition, livestock producers may seek reimbursement for the death loss of breeding stock, the cost of replacement of breeding stock sold due to drought, and the cost of feed purchased.

“Utah’s farmers and ranchers have been hit the hardest by not only the drought but also flooding conditions in the southern half of our state,” said Craig Buttars, commissioner of the Utah Department

16 years. Using the new study’s formula, he’s lost 1 year and 15 minutes off his life. He is considered by Major League Eating as “the greatest of all time.”

He competes in foods other than hot dogs. He has won the Hooter’s Worldwide Wing Eating contest several times. He eats chili and bratwursts competitively. There are YouTube videos of him eating. I don’t recommend watching them. But he does seem like a nice guy. I like this quote from Joey, “The only way I can continue doing competitive eating is by being healthy.”

Before any of us get too worked up over all this math on minutes gained or minutes lost of our lives, I think there are other things to consider. I agree with Marion Nestle, professor of nutrition and public health at New York University.

She wonders about the accuracy of looking at foods in this way. She says, “Changing a diet to include or exclude any one food is unlikely to make much difference — it’s dietary (and lifestyle) patterns that count.”

My takeaway from all of this is that I’m going to enjoy my occasional hot dog at ball games. I’m also going to reallllly enjoy my peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

And if I decide to enter the world of competitive eating, my specialty will be ice cream. It’s the only food that I eat faster than my wife, so she says.

We stopped at the Big Red Barn in Santaquin last week on the way home from a medical procedure for my knee. I was a “good boy” when I endured the uncomfortable moments of extracting bone marrow from my hip for injection into my knee.

I used the word “uncomfortable.” That word would be a high order euphemism in this case. It was downright painful and hurt like the dickens. (That might be a story for another time) So anyway, my wife felt like I deserved a reward. I had key lime pie ice cream at the “Barn.” I recommend it. I’ve been using ice cream for “medicinal purposes” successfully, in my own psychological way, for most of my life. And, you know what? — hot dogs can be good medicine too. — Merrill

of Agriculture and Food. “We hope that this loan fund will help those farmers and ranchers who have been affected by these disasters.”

The Utah Department of Agriculture and Food will administer the Emergency Disaster Relief loan program under its Agriculture Resource Development Loan (ARDL) program. Agricultural producers can apply for the EDR loans starting Sept. 13. Applicants can receive loans of up to $100,000 to help reimburse expenses they have experienced due to the drought, such as feed costs, lost livestock, or crop loss. For more information on the EDR loan program and to apply, visit ag.utah. gov/emergency-disaster-relief-loan-program.

Utah groups take part in campaign to limit suicide

BY LAURA GILES

Special to The Pyramid

September is Suicide Prevention Month, and it is a great time to renew commitments to help others, become better educated and find out about available mental health resources. Across Utah, individuals and organizations are getting the word out about ways to help save lives, educate others about prevention and find hope.

Together we can stop suicide. That is the message that the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is spreading. Taryn Hiatt, the AFSP area director, said that one of the biggest opportunities for suicide prevention is limiting access to lethal means. “Limiting access to firearms and medications saves lives,” she said.

According to Hiatt, individuals with suicidal thoughts who do not have access to le-

Separating an individual from a firearm, even temporarily, can increase the likelihood they don’t die by suicide.

On Sept. 28, AFSP Utah is holding a “Talk Saves Lives” virtual event from 6:30-8 p.m. The presentation will

teach participants about common risk factors and ways to keep others safe. Registration and more information is available at http://afsp.org/chapter/Utah.

All month, AFSP has been holding Walk Out of the Darkness events across Utah, with some coming up in the next couple of weeks. Last

week, more than 3,000 people participated in West Jordan. These community walks are held in hundreds of cities across the country and not only show support for those affected by suicide, but spread awareness and raise funds for ongoing prevention efforts.

Volunteers organize the suicide prevention walks as part of the constant work to prevent suicide.

“Anyone interested in volunteering can visit our website and complete our application,” Hiatt said. “Our volunteer coordinator will be in touch to start your training process.”

Hope4Utah’s 17th annual Walk4Hope will be held on Saturday, beginning at Timpanogos Elementary School, 449 N. 500 West, Provo. The walk draws people together every year to bring awareness to suicide in the community and to promote the message of suicide prevention. Registration

begins at 9 a.m., with a program at 9:30 and the walk at 10 a.m.

PG Cares, Pleasant Grove’s Communities That Care Coalition, regularly offers free suicide prevention trainings, both in-person and online.

The “QPR Spells Hope” trainings teach three important prevention steps: question,

persuade and refer. The next training, at 2 p.m. Saturday, will be held at the Pleasant Grove Library. For more information and to register, go the PG Cares Facebook page or on their Instagram account @pgcares.

More importantly, this time we received a very nice 29 mpg combined, way up from the 23.7 mpg we got last year in the Outback.

Good news for those Subaru enthusiasts out there: The Outback still has 8.7 inches of ground clearance, and with the Wilderness version gets to an incredible 9.5 inches clearance, making it a very capable vehicle going off-road.

Interior of the 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness. active family SUV. The 2022 Wilderness Outback features some exterior updates that are sure to please any outdoor enthusiast. Added are an exclusive grill, badges and two tow points both front and back along with some awesome anodized copper finishes.

It has grown wider at the fenders with additional front and side cladding to continue giving the Outback a more rugged look. In fact, the way it has been designed has the sides resembling a hiking boot, and we were able to see that look and feel come out during our week with the SUV. Enhancements to the Lineatronic CVT (continuously variable transmission) were great as the engineers have managed to make it quieter with a short-pitch chain and make adjustments to the engine timing under hard acceleration. We felt this was one of the strongest CVTs that we have driven as of late, as it took us a couple of hours the first day to notice that it was a CVT and not a standard transmission.

What had to be our favorite addition to the Outback this year is the new infotainment screen, which has grown significantly to a whopping 11.6 inches in full HD quality! The screen can be individualized for the driver as apps can be moved around like an iPad. The Outback comes complete with the new Chimani app, which provides a comprehensive guide to more than 400 national parks in the U.S., including history and highlights written by local travel experts. What a great testament to Subaru’s commitment to get folks out and enjoying the out of doors!

The Outback, of course, comes with the Eyesight system from the engineers at Subaru. This adds an extra pair of eyes and even an extra foot on the brake if needed.

Actually, there are two sen-

sors located on each side of the rearview mirror at the top of the windshield that continually scan the road ahead and the area to the sides of the vehicle.

This makes it possible for the Outback to alert the driver if the vehicle starts to wander outside of the lane, and it will also nudge the vehicle back into the lane with Subaru’s version of lane keep assist. We found that the system performed very well even in the dark of night on the concrete freeway where the lines are sometimes hard to see. It will also alert the driver if he or she seems to be weaving back and forth in the lane, something that might happen with drowsy driving.

It also comes with adaptive cruise control that will keep the Outback at a certain distance behind the next vehicle in the lane, even bringing the vehicle to a complete stop if necessary. The engineers have even taken this technology one step further by providing an audible beep when the car ahead clears, allowing the Outback to return to the set speed.

This system will hit the brakes if it thinks that the Outback is in immediate danger of a front collision, and it will also reduce throttle control and apply brakes if the danger is not as imminent at it may appear, thus either avoiding or greatly diminishing a front-end collision. As a Subaru equipped with the Eyesight system, the Outback gets the highest rating possible from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety when it comes to front-end collisions.

Add rear cross path detection and blind spot monitoring to all these great safety features and the Outback becomes a very safe ride indeed, which is, as they say, what makes a Subaru a Subaru!

Utah’s newest license plate honors Martin Luther King’s work

BY CARTER WILLIAMS

Deseret News

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — If you find yourself stuck in traffic and staring at the license plate attached to the vehicle ahead of you in the future, Gov. Spencer Cox said he hopes you’re staring directly at Utah’s newest plate option.

The plate features an outline of Utah and five hands of different colors holding it into place. The words “many stories, one Utah” are printed underneath, the Deseret News reported. The governor said he hopes someone will see it and think about what it represents.

“I hope and believe because of the incredible artwork that it will inspire conversations,” Cox said.

The new license plate unveiled at the state Capitol on Thursday honors the life and work of Martin Luther King Jr. While there are no direct links to his image or likeness — as a result of legal reasons from the King estate — the design itself is inspired by him and his work as a civil rights activist before he was assassinated in 1968.

Utah’s work toward an MLK-themed license plate dates back to 2012, according to Simba Maponga, chairman

Spencer Cox participate in the launch of new Utah license plate that celebrates Martin Luther King Jr. and diversity at the Capitol in Salt Lake City on Sept. 9. of the state’s Martin Luther King Jr. Human Rights Commission. A 2020 bill led by Rep. Sandra Hollins, D-Salt Lake City, and Sen. Luz Escamilla, D-Salt Lake City, then

paved the way for a license plate to recognize King’s work and life with money from the plates going toward scholarships for “underrepresented or underserved” students.

While individuals and organizations are working to prevent suicide, businesses are also implementing this work when possible. Foothill Family Clinic in Cottonwood Heights will begin integrating behavioral health into their primary care practice this fall.

“When taking all measures into account, Utah currently ranks fourth worst in the country for access to mental health, according to Mental Health Amer-

ica. Through this partnership, we have a life-changing opportunity to provide much-needed behavioral health solutions to Utahns who are struggling,” it reads on a media release. Foothill Family Clinic is partnering with evolvedMD, an integrator of behavioral health services and primary care practices, to bring about these changes.

this experience by submitting artwork that espoused Dr. King’s principles of nonviolence, his hope for unity and his lasting legacy that inspires us to believe that

there’s enough room for us all,” Maponga said.

The winning design was submitted by Eleanor Smith, a former Timpview High School and current BYU student. She said in a statement that it was inspired by King’s dream for a world that celebrates and values differences, and symbolizes “the many unique voices of Utah coming together in love and unity.”

That’s exactly what Cox hopes you see as you stare at the license plate.

“This is a symbol. It’s a moment of time for all of us to reflect on how far we’ve come and then look to the future on how far we still have to go,” the governor said.

Hollins feels the same way.

It’s been over 50 years since King’s death but his vision is still something people long for as divisions among people continue today, she said.

For her, the license plate is a reminder that there is more that connects people.

“Seeing something like this and being brought together is something that is much needed in this time that we’re living in right now,” she said.

The new plate is now available for $21 through the Utah Division of Motor Vehicles.
