WASHINGTON, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack has signed a proclamation declaring Aug. 7-13, 2016, as "National Farmers Market Week." This year marks the 17th annual National Farmers Market Week to honor and celebrate the important role that farmers markets play in local economies.

Some elk hunting changes await Utah's hunters this fall. The changes mostly involve the hunting of cow elk. If you enjoy hunting elk in Utah, some changes—including a new hunting opportunity—are waiting for you this fall. The changes mostly involve the hunting of female elk, also called cow elk. Antlerless elk-control permits • Antlerless elk-control permits are no longer available for most of Utah’s general spike only elk hunting units. That includes three of the state’s most popular units: the two Wasatch units in north-central Utah and the Mount Dutton unit in southcentral Utah. (Antlerless elk-control permits allow hunters, who already have a buck deer, bull elk or once-in-a-lifetime permit for a particular unit, to also take a cow elk on the unit during their hunt.) • If you buy a general spike bull permit and an antlerless-elk control permit, the northern portion of the San Juan unit (in southeastern Utah) is the only place you can take a cow elk. Antlerless elk-control permits are no longer available for any of the remaining spike-only units in Utah. If you have a general spike bull elk permit—and you’d like to buy an antlerless elk-control permit for the portion of the San Juan unit that’s
open to cow elk hunting—you must buy your elk control permit at a Division of Wildlife Resources office. The permits are not available over the Internet or from license agents. You can see the area on the San Juan unit where you can use the permit at www. wildlife.utah.gov/hunting/biggame/pdf/antlerless_control_ spike_elk.pdf. You can learn more about antlerless elk-control permits, including the 11 areas where you can use them, at www. wildlife.utah.gov/elkcontrol. Private-lands-only permits • Private-lands-only permits are new in Utah. Pushing elk off private property, and back onto public land, is the goal of the new permit. Pushing elk onto public land should make hunting on public land better in the future. Taking cow elk that are pushed onto public land is also important in getting Utah’s elk population back to the level called for in the state’s elk management plans. Justin Shannon, big game coordinator for the DWR, says as soon as the hunts start, many cow elk leave public land and head for private property. “We need to ‘retrain’ elk to stay on public land by limiting the refuge areas they have on private

property,” he says. “Providing private landowners with additional tools, to help control elk on their property, is the key to making that happen.” • Private-lands-only permits are available for 15 units in Utah. A list of the units is available at www.wildlife. utah.gov/private-lands-elk. html. When you buy a privatelands-only permit, you may use the permit only on the unit you bought the permit for. Also, if you’d like to hunt on private property that’s cultivated land, land that’s fenced or enclosed in a manner designed to exclude intruders from entering, or land that’s properly posted against trespass, you must obtain written permission from the landowner first. “Before you buy one of these permits,” says Judi Tutorow, wildlife licensing coordinator for the DWR, “obtain written permission to hunt on the private property you want to hunt. You don’t want to end up with a permit you can’t use.” You can learn more about private-lands-only permits at www.wildlife.utah.gov/private-lands-elk.html.

USDA officials will celebrate at farmers market locations across the country. On Saturday, Aug. 6, Elanor Starmer, the Administrator of USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) – which conducts research, provides technical assistance, and awards grants to support local and regional food systems – will kick off the week visiting a farmers market and wrap up the week at USDA's own farmers market in Washington, D.C., on Friday, Aug. 12. "Farmers markets are a gathering place where you can buy locally produced food, and at the same time, get to know the farmer and story behind the food you purchase," said Administrator Starmer. "These types of markets improve earning potential for farmers and ranchers, building stronger community ties and access to local foods."

Farmers markets provide consumers with fresh, affordable, convenient, and healthy products from local producers. With support from USDA, more farmers markets offer customers the opportunity to make purchases with the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; the Women, Infants, and Children Nutrition Program; and the Senior Farmers' Market Nu-
trition Programs. Supporting farmers markets is a part of the USDA's Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food (KYF2) Initiative, which coordinates the Department's work to develop strong local and regional food systems. USDA is committed to helping farmers, ranchers, and businesses access the growing market for local and regional foods, which was valued at $12 billion in 2014 according to industry estimates. You can also find local and regional supply chain resources on the newly-revamped KYF2 website and use the KYF2 Compass to locate USDA investments in your community.

From the Publisher's Desk correction: In an Insider article titled, "Election Officials Contest Wayne County Election," and published July 21, 2016, our article stated: "the Sixth Judicial Court of Wayne County has annulled and set aside the 2016 Wayne County Primary results." We would like to issue a correction that the verified complaint and petition of July 15 presented to the Sixth Judicial Court of Wayne County states that, "Petitioners respectfully request that the Court annul and set aside the 2016 Wayne County Primary results and permit the Republican party to name a candidate County Commissioner to be placed on the 2016 general election ballot." Hence as of the date of publication it remained a request for annulment and the annulment had not (and still has not) yet taken place. A bench trial related to the case has been set for August 24, 2016 at the Wayne County Court House. —Insider

Free Viewing Event Aug. 6 on Tushar Mountain
utah DiviSion of WilDlife reSourceS
You could see as many as 100 mountain goats at this year's Tushar Mountain Goat Watch. BEAVER - You could see as many as 100 mountain goats on Aug. 6. And you might not need binoculars to see them. At some past viewing events, goats have gotten as close as 35 feet to those viewing them. On Aug. 6, the Division of Wildlife Resources will host its annual Goat Watch on the Tushar Mountains east of Beaver. The event is free. The trip will begin at 8 a.m. at the Cardwell convenience store and gas station. The business is at 215 N. Main St. in Beaver. (The station is at the start of state Route 153, in the center of town.) From the station, participants will caravan to the top of the Tushar Mountains. When
you reach the top, you’ll be close to 11,500 feet above sea level. Phil Tuttle, regional conservation outreach manager for the DWR, says the view from the top of the Tushars is amazing. “From the top of the mountain,” he says, “you can see all of southern Utah. The mountain goats are the icing on top of the cake.” If binoculars or spotting scopes are needed, Tuttle will have some you can borrow. But if you have your own viewing equipment, please bring it. Tuttle also encourages you to bring water, a hat, a jacket and a sack lunch. It’s also a good idea to travel in a vehicle that has high ground
clearance. “The road can be rocky towards the top,” he says. In addition to seeing the mountain goats, attending the viewing event will allow you to explore the alpine-tundra ecosystem in which the goats live. Found only above the timberline at high elevations, it’s an ecosystem that’s uncommon in southern Utah. Tuttle says unique animals live in this alpine-tundra terrain, including yellow-bellied marmots and pika. For more information about the goat watching event, call the DWR’s Southern Region office at 435-865-6100. —Utah Division of Wildlife Resources
EPA Says Airliners Major Source of Greenhouse Gases SALT LAKE CITY Greenhouse gas emissions from aircraft engines endanger public health and welfare, that's according to a new finding from the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The endangerment finding documents the magnitude of a problem that environmentalists have been urging the agency to tackle for almost a decade. According to Vera Pardee, senior counsel with the Center for Biological Diversity, under the Clean Air Act, the agency now is required to act. "EPA must set emission standards to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that are
produced by the thousands of aircraft crossing our skies every day," she said. The EPA's study found that U.S. aircraft are responsible for almost 30 percent of greenhouse gas emissions from all aircraft globally. If commercial aviation were considered a country, it would rank seventh in the world for carbon emissions, according to the Center. Pardee notes that a recent Center for Biological Diversity report found that if nothing is done, aircraft will generate 43 gigatonnes of planet-warming pollution by 2050. "That number alone would put us far above what we can handle as far as not
exceeding the temperature threshold that allows us to continue to live on this planet as we would like," she added. Earlier this year the International Civil Aviation Organization recommended standards for carbon pollution for aircraft, but Pardee said they are far short of what can be done. A recent report from the International Council on Clean Transportation showed that some of the top 20 transatlantic air carriers could cut emission by up to 51 percent with existing technology and operational improvements. —Mark Richardson, Utah News Connection

ALEKS - Can I Help with Math at Home? Garfield County has been participating in a grant program from the Utah STEM Action Center to utilize automated math tracking software to help parents and teachers follow success of their children’s math education. Garfield students will once again be receiving partial funding from Utah STEM Action Center to provide the ALEKS software package. Based on support from the school board, students will be able to use their school assigned computers to work with the ALEKS software daily at school, at home, or where there is an internet signal. The ALEKS software is great for students 3rd through 12th grades. Besides providing students with daily worksheets that are tailored to their math curriculum needs, the software assesses the students’ performance and success weekly to give a visual picture of where the students have reached competency or the subjects needing additional work. Teachers can then produce work that specifically targets the student’s deficiency. Our students have had access to this software in the past but with the district 1:1 program and STEM funding, we hope to receive additional benefits for student growth in mathematics this school year. —Tracy Davis, Superintendent, Garfield County School District

Back-to-School Tips When You're on a Budget
Between new clothes and new school supplies, back-toschool season can put a strain on household budgets. In 2015, families planned to spend $630 on back-toschool items, according to the National Retail Federation, and this year’s numbers are also expected to be pricey. With a little planning, your family can get the most out of your school shopping budget -- by taking advantage of sales, comparison shopping, buying in bulk and simply by making sure you don’t buy things you already own. Here are some smart ways families can reduce costs as students head back to class this fall. End-of-Season Sales Take advantage of endof-season sales to stock up. This concept may not help you this fall, but it’s a great habit to adopt now for long-term savings. You can stock up on summer clothes now and great fall items once the weather gets chillier. Stores will be offering deep discounts and clearance prices on items that eventually will come in handy for next back-to-school season. Remember to take into account that kids grow quickly! Add it Up Bigger ticket school supply items can cost you a pretty penny if you don’t comparison shop. For example, required tools like a high-quality graphing calculator can come with a price tag of $75 or more! Get more for your money with an affordable model, such as Casio’s fx-9750GII, which retails

for under $50. It offers useful features like a high resolution screen and compatibility with a personal computer. It is also permitted to be used in such major tests as the ACT and the SAT. More information about calculators can be found at CasioEducation.com. Take Stock and Buy in Bulk Don’t buy things you already own, and take advantage of bulk discounts for the stuff you need! Before making your shopping list take stock of what school supplies you already have in your closets -- and your child’s backpack -- from the last school year. From scissors to folders to unused or partially used notebooks, you may already have many things your kids need for the year ahead. For those necessities that kids will need all year long -- such as tape, paper, pens,
pencils, markers and more -take advantage of bulk sales at discount stores and online retailers. Buying more now can save you cash in the months ahead. Go Green Brown bags, plastic baggies and plastic silverware are small expenses that add up quickly. Instead, opt for reusable lunch container alternatives and a one-time expense. It’s not only good for the planet, but kids will get on board if you let them pick items that speak to their sense of style. You’ll also save yourself trips to the store! Don’t let back-to-school make a hefty dent in your wallet. At the store, take advantage of great deals and also consider different ways of eliminating perennial expenses. —Statepoint Media
August is National Immunization Awareness Month: Are You Up-to-Date? August is National Immunization Awareness Month and the perfect opportunity to make sure everyone is up-to-date with their vaccination schedules, particularly children headed backto-school. Different ages and communications are susceptible to different diseases. Knowing what vaccines you have received and which you need is crucial. While it’s a great idea to keep your own records up-to-date at home, you can always check in with your physician, too. To learn more about the importance of vaccines, visit cdc. gov/vaccines.

l A u G h i N g pOiNt!! Exhaust Fan
Wills, Trusts, and More Legal Issues Related to Funeral Planning
My husband and I were building a sunroom to accommodate our new hot tub. The project soon turned into a money pit. During one of our numerous trips to the hardware store, my husband inquired about exhaust fans. The store clerk looked them up on the computer and praised one fan in particular because it was exceptionally quiet. After asking the clerk for the price, he sighed and said, "Do you have anything louder?"

When you die, who will decide what happens to your body? Who will decide your burial location and the funeral arrangements? If a daughter from an earlier marriage wants her father buried near her mother in Los Angeles but the daughter’s stepmother wants her husband buried in Southern Utah or Nevada, whose desire will prevail? If a person wants to be cremated but never told those close to her, will she be cremated? Answers to the above questions depend on you. You must make the decisions in writing regarding your funeral and burial before you die. Part of your estate planning should entail addressing these issues. State law provides that the person named in your will (an “executor,” or now more commonly referred to as “personal representative”) shall have authority prior to appointment by the court to carry out written instructions of the decedent relating to his body, funeral, and burial arrangements.
This means two things. First, you should have a will naming someone as executor or personal representative. Second, you should provide written instructions to your personal representative regarding your burial and funeral arrangements. Both of these steps are vitally important. If you have not left a will naming an executor or personal representative and written directions (whether in your will or some other document), the law is unclear as to who has authority to make those decisions. This uncertainty can and has lead to terrible disagreements between family members which is something everyone probably wants to avoid. On occasion, family members have discussed with me and others in our office their desire to change, or their fear that another family member will want to change, the location of burial of a loved one. Significantly, the courts have stated that it is a sound and well-established policy of law that a person, once buried, should not be exhumed except for the most compelling of
Page 5
reasons. Because burial decisions have to be made very quickly after death and are almost impossible to change once made, you should set forth your desires regarding your funeral and burial when doing your estate planning. Meeting with a funeral planner at the mortuary of your choice and having your desires set forth in a prearranged plan can be very helpful to all involved. WITH A SATELLITE OFFICE NOW IN PANGUITCH.

I noticed an elderly couple in a nearby booth in the restaurant enjoying each other's company. They looked to be in their 80s. I wondered if they'd have to wait for a bus to take them home, while I, much younger, would enjoy a drive home in my car. While I was wondering, they got up to leave...and reached down for their motorcycle helmets!

Making New Friends
New to town, I was eager to meet people and make friends. So one day I struck up a conversation with the only other woman in the gym. Pointing to two men playing racquetball in a nearby court, I said to her, "There's my husband." Then I added, "The thin one -- not the fat one." After a slightly uncomfortable silence she replied, "And that's my husband -- the fat one."
Necessity
I opened the refrigerator at work to get my lunch. Instead of my dessert, I found this note: "IOU one banana cream. Sorry, it was an emergency. Sharon."
Prayer
Little Joey was misbehaving and was sent to bed. His uncle, who was having dinner with the family, went to see Joey in his bedroom and told him, "If you ask God to help you about your misbehaving, He will help you." Joey immediately took his uncle's advice and started praying, "Dear God, please help me to not get caught quite so much."
What Are You?
A gnome is in the garden busily destroying some bushes when a house cat appears. "What are you?" asks the cat."A gnome," comes the reply. "I steal food from humans, I kill their plants, I make annoying music at night to drive them crazy, and I love mischief. And what, may I ask, are you?" The cat replies, "Um, I'm a gnome."
Problems
Our school had just installed a new air-conditioning system, and a representative from the company wanted to make sure it was running smoothly. Poking his head into an empty classroom, he asked the teacher, "Any little problems here?" "No," she said, smiling. "All our little problems have gone home."

FYI PanguItch
by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com The monsoons have arrived right on time, it must be August. For the last 6 out of 7 years our area has been blessed with these storms that go on for a month or two at this time of the year. With our lake being down during these many years the rains are truly welcome. However they are a hit and miss proposition, I was out to Whitsoe last week and it rained, it dumped nearly two inches in less than an hour, I mean that it really poured. When I left out of there the road was dry just a mile away. While out at Whitsoe I noticed what looked like green apples in the scrub oak trees. But with closer examination, they were green pine cones and the trees were really covered with them. I don’t know if I wasn’t ever out there at this time of the year or what, I just don’t recall seeing them before, but this is really going to be a great year for pine nuts. Last week we had a little excitement here in town. Some people that had committed a crime were thought to have been spotted here in town and one of the houses was surrounded by police in the area. It is funny but people were buying drinks and bringing chairs to watch what was going on. It must be really boring around here, I guess. It turned out to be a false alarm,
but it was a great drill for our police and they had everything under control and no one got hurt. Being a police officer in this day and age, has taken on a new danger to a job that was always dangerous to begin with. My thoughts on this may be all wrong but I am going to say it anyway, there has for years been, what is called suicide by cop, where folks that don’t have the nerve to do themselves in, so they have the police do it for them, branding a weapon. Now they are shooting at cops, knowing full well what their fate will be. Police officers' goals in life are to help out the people and to keep them safe. Panguitch is really blessed with great men who make living here safe. Thank you! Can you believe it, school starts in just two weeks, the kids start on August 22 and the teachers come in a week earlier. Oh where did the time go, but we old folks do have one more month of summer, fall starts September 23rd, so enjoy it while you can. High School sports started last Tuesday, with the boys traveling out to Pinnacle high school, for a baseball game. It won’t be long before Volleyball starts up, along with Cross Country, I love PHS sports. Pat and I went over to the Shakespeare Festival and saw
Henry V in the new outdoor Theater; it was a lot of fun. Even though I have a tough time understanding the King’s English. I marvel at the actors and their ability to project their voices so well, without microphones. If you read about the story, you can follow along pretty well and know what is going on, however when there is a funny line and everyone is laughing but you, you know you are missing a lot. You can order tickets at (435-5867878), when you call Monday thru Thursday, tell them you are from Panguitch the tickets will be half price. I believe they have moved all of the entertainment theaters off campus and boy did they make it into a high class venue. Pat and her friend Donna from California, went back another day to take in their new museum, which just opened last month, it is called SUMA, (Southern Utah Museum of Arts). It is not a Shakespeare museum and right now they are showing works from the five National Parks in Utah. The museum is free and Pat says that it is really worth your while. So next time you are in Cedar and looking to broaden your horizon, give this a look. Tomorrow the summer Olympics down in Rio starts, I like the track and field events,
but the opening night of this event is always something you don’t want to miss, the Olympics go on for 13 days. The following week will be the County Fair and it will have something for everyone there. Animal judging, crafts, kids fishing pond grab, horseshoes, ping pong ball drop, free Commissioners' luncheon, game for the kids and the talent show. The following week the ATV Rally will start and it looks like another record year. The first couple of years the rally only had about 25 to 50 participants, then as part of your entry fee you got a chance to win a 4 wheeler and the rally really took off. Last year’s crowd was at 230, with a month to go they have already 220 signed up. So if you want to sign up for a certain ride you need to go to the City Hall as soon as possible. This year there also will be a drawing for another 4 wheeler, tickets are $5.00. The nice thing about this rally, that there is so much country to see around here, that the riders keep coming back. I think that this could be our biggest event of the year, because it just keeps growing. Love thy neighbor as thy self. Mack O.

Poverty Flat, part 2
Obituaries
by aDuS f. DorSey ii JULY 30, 2016 - I was standing in the baking goods aisle at Royal's this morning minding my own business and humming a tune I heard at the Junior Miss Wayne County pageant last night. While reaching up for a box of breadcrumbs for a recipe I wanted to try, two ladies boxed me in with their grocery baskets. The one that spoke first looked like she had just come from Mericha’s beauty shop as she was stepping lightly and her toenails were freshly painted. “Hey,” the pink painted toenail lady said. “I read your Ethalinda Jane story in the paper last week and you can’t just write that her first husband died an untimely death and leave it at that. What kind of writer are you anyway?” A little embarrassed, because she was drawing a crowd, I put back the breadcrumbs and I told her I would fix it and I quickly went to check out, then left Royal’s with only half of my grocery list. If you read it and as you might remember from last week's Poverty Flat story, in 1870 Ethalinda Jane Young met and married William Washington Phelps, when she was sixteen years old. They had a daughter and named her Malinda. A Deseret News account tells us that when little Malinda was five years old her daddy W.W. Phelps was charged with horse stealing and sentenced to the Salt Lake Sugar House Prison. The infamous John D. Lee of Mountain Meadows Massacre fame was in prison at the time too. W.W. Phelps asked John D. Lee to teach him to read and write as to improve his mind of which John D. Lee did. The following spring, on March 14th 1876 at three o’clock in the afternoon, Lee was aroused from a nap by screams and yells. Hurrying to his window he looked out and saw Phelps and other prisoners fighting a prison guard to gain access to guns and the key to the gate. Each had armed himself with as large a stone as he could force into the toe of a heavy sock. Seven men escaped. It soon became clear that Burgher, the prison warden, had been mortally wounded.

Years passed and even though Jane was frail she did her best to care for the orchard and fruit and stay active in the church. In her little Center street yard was a thick stand of yellow roses and lilac bushes close to the house. New grand children were welcomed until forty-two had joined the family, thirty-two of whom were still living in 1926. Bit by bit Jane sold parts of her land and water rights. By 1931, Jane was no longer able to stay alone and Myrtle’s oldest daughter Joy came to stay with her. It was there that Jane’s grand daughters learned to mix bread and piece quilts – many of them – on the old treadle type Singer sewing machine. By the fall of 1933, Jane had developed such a severe heart condition that the few steps from her bed to the living room table left her exhausted. By the fifteenth of October, Jane could no longer leave her bed, at ten o’clock October 18th, 1933 Jane’s staunch spirit took flight leaving a posterity of four living children, thirty two living grand children and several great grand children. Ethalinda Jane Young Morrill is peacefully resting next to her husband George D. Morrill in the Torrey cemetery. Her sweet memory and good deeds linger on in our minds and in our hearts. The old Morrill home on Center Street in Torrey is being resurrected and scheduled for completion sometime in the fall of 2016. Ethalinda Jane would be proud.

Emergency Preparation
The likelihood that you and your family will recover from an emergency tomorrow often depends on the planning and preparation done today. While each person’s abilities and needs are unique, every individual can take steps to prepare for all kinds of emergencies. By evaluating your own personal needs and making an emergency plan that fits those needs, you and your loved ones can be better prepared. There are common sense measures older Americans can take to start preparing for emergencies before they happen. Create a network of neighbors, relatives, friends and co-workers to aid you in an emergency. Discuss your needs and make sure everyone knows how to operate necessary equipment. If appropriate, discuss your needs with your employer. Seniors should keep specialized items ready, including extra wheelchair batteries, oxygen, catheters, medication, food for service animals and any other items you might need. Keep a list of the type and model numbers of the medical devices you require. Be sure to make provisions for medications that require refrigeration. Make arrangements for any assistance to get to a shelter.
