Candidates for November Elections

Clarification on Fire Restrictions Stage One Fire Restrictions for all state and federal lands in the South Central Idaho zone were rescinded last week due to cooler temperatures and moisture received in the zone. This means that hunters and campers are not restricted in their use of campfires and such. There are still areas which are closed to travel because of fire fighting activity and road condi-tions. Please, do not travel into closed areas. Contact the forest service or BLM for more info.

Lost n’ Lava The 4th Annual Lost N Lava Cowboy Gathering is this weekend, September 20, 21 & 22nd, in Sho-shone Idaho at the Lin-coln County Fairgrounds and Community Center.

Schedule on page 3.....

The candidates for this year’s elections are registered ready to start soliciting your votes. For those of you who are last-minute procrastinating politicians, you still have until September 20th to register as a write–in candidate for politi-cal subdivisions such as cem-etery districts, fire protection districts, and recreation dis-tricts. The last day to register as a write–in for a city position is October 8th. In Camas County, no one has met the filing deadline to be on the ballot for the Fair-field city council or mayor. That leave just three weeks for individuals to register as write–ins. Regardless of whether anyone registers or not, the election must still be conducted. In Lincoln County, the city of Shoshone has two can-didates for mayor and three candidates for city council. The current mayor, Dave Wendell, will face off with long time council member, Dale Sluder, for the position of mayor. There are two coun-cil seats open this year, which

will go to the two candidates with most votes. Voters will choose between Jann Thom-sen, Dan Pierson, and Tammy Swaner. In other Lincoln County Races, Fred Stechelin and Greg Sant are running against each other for Cemetery Dis-trict Sub–Dist 2 Commission-er. Kathy Marsh and Jamie Turner competing for a posi-tion on the Recreation Dis-trict Board. Both Richfield and Dietrich have two open seats for their city councils, but only two candidates have registered in each of those towns leaving those positions uncontested. In Gooding County the big race is in the City of Gooding where four people are running for mayor. Two weeks ago, Walter Nelson was appointed to the position, but to retain that position he will have to beat out Enos Waddoups, Alfred Eichholz, and Jennifer Wheeler. There are no con-tested races for the Gooding City Council. In Wendell, Jan Gooding and Lori Swainston are look-ing to takeover the mayor posi-

tion which was vacated earlier this year by Brad Christopher-son (Kent Bates took over as mayor but is not running for that position). Wendell also has four people competing for two open city council seats. Voters in Wendell will choose to keep the current council members (Jason Houser and Herb Allred) or replace them with Paul Isaacson and/or Melody Finley. The Hagerman city council has four open seats. Recently appointed Dale Christoffersen and incumbent Jay Hauser will try to retain their seats from challengers Alan Jay and Fred Churruca. Krista Merrill will be trying to take out one of the other incumbents (Carl Jeffries and Steven Bland) for a four year term on the coun-cil. In Bliss, four people are run-ning for the two open seats: Anthony Ramirez, Ted James, Debra Greeley, and Don Clemmons. The Bliss Rural Fire Department also has four people running for two seats: Mike Elliott, Jerome Vander-wyst, Randy Erkins, and James Pruett.

September 20th & 21st This weekend, enjoy the 14th Annual Hagerman Car Show. The fun begins on Fri-day at 6 p.m. with a commu-nity BBQ in the City Park. At 7 p.m. BSU Football will be shown in the park (bring out the orange and blue). On Saturday, breakfast will be served at the Hagerman Senior Center starting at 7 a.m. Cost is only $5. Registration for the car show begins at 8 a.m. Along with cars there will an art show, raffles, food, antique tractors, and lots of music.

Violet Floyd Violet Floyd, 83, a resident of Gooding, died Wednesday, Septem-ber 11, 2013 at her home in Good-ing. Violet was born on April 7, 1930 in Declo, Idaho, one of twin daugh-ters born to Alford and Clara Dal-ton. She was raised and educated in King Hill where she attended school through the eighth grade. Violet married Edwin Heath on April 17, 1949 in Glenns Ferry. He preceded her in death. She later married Bob Floyd, who also preceded her in death.

DeLone Irene Barton Rivers DeLone Irene Barton Riv-ers passed away peacefully on Monday, September 9, 2013 after raising 7 little divas, and their 20 little princesses and princes. She was raised and edu-cated in Buhl, Idaho. She met and married Al Barton and enjoyed 44 years of marriage. A few years af-ter Al passed, she married Louis Rivers. We all have many fond memories of life with mom. She had so much faith in her children, she believed everything we said. Sorry mom! She was an excellent cook and took many purple ribbons for pies and canned goods. Once a week we would hurry home from school to eat homemade bread and rolls. However, any opportunity to “coffee up” or grab a bite at the “Dairy N” was never refused. Mom was an accomplished seamstress, making many outfits for every occasion, including prom, Halloween, or dance contests. As a busy mom she still always managed to find time to help with spelling or writing your letters. She sang in the church choir, played harmonica, and played the piano by ear. As a member of the Gooding First Christian Church, she served in the women’s ministry for many years. Her smile was her signature. She loved her social life and other’s as well. Mom actually went on her granddaughter’s first date with her future husband. DeLone is survived by 6 daughters, Kay Schmenk, of Fort Worth, Texas; Barbara Barton, of Chugiak, Alaska; Vonnie (Lee) Claiborne, of Twin Falls, Idaho; Cherri (Randy) Sut-er, of Jerome, Idaho; Cyndi (Rut) Rost, of Jerome, Idaho; and Tracie (Monte) Warwick, of Boise, Idaho; 20 grand-children; and 32 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her 2 husbands; 1 daugh-

ter, Joye Arlene; 1 infant son; and her immediate family.

The family wishes to thank DeSano Place Suites for their loving care of DeLone. Funeral services were held on Saturday, September 14, 2013 at the First Christian Church in Gooding. Burial followed at Elmwood Cem-etery in Gooding.

Arrangements conducted by Demaray Funeral Service.

I’ve always wanted to experience the Italian Alps and stay in the homes of regular Italians, eat their food and enjoy their culture. Not only did I get to do that in the first chapter, but I got to travel backwards in time to the turn of the 20th century where I also received an insider’s peek at the life inside the walls of church, of the nuns themselves. Transported to those sensuous sun drenched alpine meadows, breathing in the aroma of steaming gn-occi, I could almost lick the frothed milk in my steaming espresso off my lips. I felt like I’d been on vacation. Then the scene moved to New York as I knew it would since it is basically an immigrant tale. But instead of low-life Ameri-can scumbags ripping the new guys off, I was treated to a backstage pass to the New York Metropolitan Opera and got to know Caruso. Awesome! Because this book is full of wonderful people, real people, men who don’t cheat, women who love their husbands, people who value fam-ily while infusing those families with loyalty and honesty and more than anything else. Is there tragedy, yes, is there mystery and suspense, yes and yes. But, it’s worth the price of the airfare.

Our family had a Beagle hound when I was young. She helped my dad irrigate crops

on a regular schedule. I don’t think she missed a beat. The Beagle ended up with a bad habit of eating eggs from the chicken coop, and the chicken were continually disturbed. We could not seem to break the habit, so dad decided to haul the dog to another one of the company’s ranches, about twenty–five miles away. About a week later the Beagle hound showed up near the city park walking home. We loaded our dog in the car and took her home. She was pretty tired and sore. My dad decided if that dog could find her way home and had the desire to be with us, she would live the rest of her days with us, regardless if she was an egg eater. The ironic thing about our Beagle hound was she caught more gophers than dad did. The dog’s hearing was none to be judged. She could hear a gopher digging the ground and would wait for hours for them to surface. We eventually moved to the city and the dog didn’t eat eggs any more. She even ended up with her own special bed in the house (outside dog). A few years ago, when I came to work where I am now, I was met by a black and white Border Collie, “Bo” (the boss was busy with the tire guy). He brought me a stick to throw. That was probably the wrong thing for me to do – throw the stick. The dog was tireless. The dog’s whole mission in life is the retrieve. Fan belts around the shop are always missing. A few weeks ago when we had massive amounts of thun-der and lightning, the dog disappeared! “Bo” was terrified of lightning. Apparently he took off running ahead of the storm that followed him. He ended up about four miles away as the eagle flies and even more as you follow the road. “Bo” had also crossed the Payette River to Unimin Sand Plant. The dog found himself displaced and lost. He kept bring items to the loader operators to throw since he was used to be-ing around such machines. The lady in the office was afraid he was going to get run over, so she took him home. Everyone at work was sad because the dog couldn’t be found. The humane society of notified with no luck. The family’s daughter in Tennessee posted pictures of the dog on facebook (she was the only one who had any) and mentioned her family lost their dog. Believe it or not, the people who were caring for “Bo” saw the pictures on facebook and contacted the rightful owners. It is amazing that a social network from 2500 miles away found a local dog. “Bo” who didn’t ride in vehicles, couldn’t get in the owner’s fast enough. He is driving the employees crazy once again. Sometimes a since of belonging somewhere or to some-one is ones life. This is my “Cup of Tee” dog gone.

NEWS from the Soldier Mountain Ski Areaby Valerie Metzger Here we are in our second season! Last season Soldier Mountain had many up-grades, renovations and improvements and we had our first big music festival. Many thanks to our staff, sponsors and volunteers for a season well done. Now here we are painting and fixing for the upcoming season and getting ready for all of your happy faces to visit us again. One of the fun changes for the mountain includes the resto-ration of the original names to some of the runs and the naming of some new runs. Soldier Mountain Ski Area, Inc. is always looking to include more skiers/boarders of all abilities and will have some new powder glades ready and will have the new cat ready for cat ski-ing/boarding adventures. And another improvement to make your ski day easier is the new Magic Carpet surface lift, a con-veyer belt taking beginners up the hill so that we can teach kids of all ages. Soldier Mountain is a user-friendly place, ready for everyone to come and play. Our history has always been a home-grown ski hill built on family pride and family traditions. Come join us in keeping the history alive and in feeling the good vibes of this unique moun-tain. “This is your mountain,” Kristi Scheirmeier always says and we need you to come be a part of it and help us continue the traditions.

WANTED: Information on unknown orginal names, histo-ry for any run that has a story, and help with the Bridge Creek Trails. It looks like there may be some new runs to rename and Soldier is asking for help on that. If we choose your sug-gestion there will be a prize! The Trail Committee will take suggestions and then as-sign the names to the apoco-pate/most applicable locations.

IDEAS: Soldier would like to honor people who put their heart and effort into Soldier. ( possible trail name inspira-tions): Alex Sinclair, Bruce Willis, and Harry Daryl, Doran Cluer. we will consider all suggestions and would like any history you have to go with your suggestions.

Healthy Soils Positively Impact CropProductivity and Resource Conservation

The USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service en-courages farmers to improve soil health to increase their pro-duction and profits as well as protect their natural resources. “Emphasizing soil health is one of the easiest and most effec-tive ways for farmers to increase crop productivity and profit-ability while improving the environment,” said Marlon Winger, NRCS Idaho State Agronomist. “Healthy, functioning soil sustains and nourishes plants, soil microbes, and beneficial in-sects.” Soil is made up of air, water, decayed plant residue, organic matter from living and dead organisms, and mineral matter such as sand, silt, and clay. Healthy soils are porous and allow air and water to move freely through them. “Increasing soil or-ganic matter typically improves soil health since organic matter affects several critical soil functions like nutrient recycling and water-holding capacity,” Winger said. Winger says taking these four actions will improve soil health: 1. Disturb the soil as little as possible 2. Grow many different species of plants through rotations and a diverse mixture of cover crops 3. Plant cover crops around harvest to keep living roots growing in the soil for as much of the year as possible 4. Keep the soil surface covered with residue year round.

“Just doing one of these may improve your soil but will not provide all the soil health benefits. The more you do, the faster your soil will be rejuvenated,” Winger said. Farmers that manage their land in ways that improve and sus-tain soil health benefit from fewer inputs, sustainable outputs, and increase resiliency. Positive results are often realized imme-diately and last well into the future. Healthy soils benefit all producers – from large row-crop op-erations to small, organic vegetable farms.
