Tick bites are usually painlessand appear as a small red bumpwith a bright red halo. To remove

an attached tick, use tweezers ora tissue and pull slowly andsteadily, being careful not crushit. Then apply antiseptic to thesite to prevent infection. If youuse bare hands to remove a tick,wash your hands thoroughly withwarm water and soap. Avoidtouching your eyes before wash-ing.

Tick-borne illness symptomsinclude sudden onset of a moder-ate-to-high fever, stiff neck, deepmuscle pain, arthritis, fatigue, se-vere headache, chills, a rash onthe arms and legs or around thesite of the bite, and swollen lymphnodes, particularly in the neck. Ifyou develop any of these symp-toms after a tick bite, see your

doctor. With Rocky Mountainspotted fever the illness does notstart immediately after the tickbite, but typically 5 to 10 daysafter the tick attachment.

moisture, emphasis on little, com-pared to the welcome moisturethose South of us received, we arethankful for what came our way.

As the years go by, those of usthat have been gardening for lotsof years, find it harder to gardencomfortably. Seems back and

joints complain a little more witheach passing year. Even thoughthe incentive of fresh garden pro-duce all season and lovely flowersgracing our landscape is pullingus to garden, the guarantee of anaching back and stiff joints givesus pause. If you are one of us,there are some things you can try.

Plant those, every day, musthave, fresh salad makings andherbs in containers to keep onyour patio or deck for quick easyaccess. Herbs do well in pots as dosalad greens, just keep them wa-tered and be sure they get enoughsunlight.

Consider adding raised beds toyour garden. Raised beds will doa lot to alleviate pain. If you makethem about four feet wide you can

easily reach in from both sides forplanting, weeding and harvest-ing. If, because of location, youcannot reach in from both sides,make the bed narrower, say threefeet wide so you can still reach allthe way across the bed. Buildraised beds according to your in-dividual needs. You may wantthem higher than the standard 12inches to really be of help in yoursituation.

This gardener has opted for 17

inch raised beds which certainlywill need more material to fillthem. With top soil a bit scarce,we are going to fill the bottom sixto eight inches with old rottedstraw before adding the soil.Eventually the straw will becomean organic part of the soil. As thestraw rots down we will add soiland compost to keep the soil levelup in the beds, this will also en-rich the soil for the next crop. Weplan to connect two of the bedswith a hoop for vining plants toclimb, think cucumbers, pollbeans, peas and such. A bit of an

experiment, but our plan works.

Pathways to Wellness thisears theme for May is Mental

Health Month calls attention totrategies and approaches thatelp all Americans achieve well-ess and good mental and overallealth. Wellness is essential toving a full and productive life,aid Robert J. Kean, Executiveirector of South Dakota Advo-

acy Services (SDAS). We mayave different ideas about what

wellness means, but it involves aet of skills and strategies pre-ent the onset or shorten the du-

ation of illness and promoteecovery and well-being. Itsbout keeping healthy as well asetting healthy.

Dianna Marshall, Program Di-ector for the SDAS Protectionnd Advocacy for Individualsith Mental Illness Program said

wellness is more than absence ofisease. It involves complete gen-ral, mental and social well-eing. And mental health is anssential component of overallealth and well-being. The fact isur overall well-being is tied tohe balance that exists betweenur emotional, physical, spiritualnd mental health.

Kean added everyone is at riskf stress given the demands it

rings and the challenges at worknd at home. But there are stepshat maintain well-being andelp everyone achieve wellness.hese involve a balanced diet,egular exercise, enough sleep, aense of self-worth, developmentf coping skills that promote re-liency, emotional awareness,nd connections to family, friendsnd the community. He said theseteps should be complemented by

taking stock of ones well-beingthrough regular mental healthcheckups. Just as we check ourblood pressure and get cancerscreenings, its a good idea to takeperiodic stock of our emotionalwell-being. One recent study saideveryone should get their mentalhealth checked as often as theyget a physical, and many doctorsroutinely screen for mentalhealth, which typically include aseries of questions about lifestyle,eating and drinking habits andmental wellness. But a checkup

doesnt necessarily require a spe-cial trip to the doctor. There arealso online screening tools youcan use. While conditions like de-pression are common roughly 1in 5 Americans have a mentalhealth condition they are ex-tremely treatable.

Fully embracing the conceptof wellness not only improveshealth in the mind, body andspirit, but also maximizes onespotential to lead a full and pro-ductive life, Marshall added.Using strategies that promote re-siliency and strengthen mentalhealth and prevent mental healthand substance use conditions leadto improved general health and ahealthier society: greater aca-

demic achievement by our chil-dren, a more productive economy,and families that stay together.Its why pathways to wellnessare so important and why weneed to spread the word notedKean.

Governor Dennis Daugaardhas signed a proclamation declar-ing May as Mental Health Aware-ness Month in South Dakota.

Marcus News By Vicky Waterland

Yesterday we ran the air con-itioner, today I turned up all theeaters in the house when I gotp. Yes, our weather continues toe unpredictable. I saw Rod andracy Ingalls at the Palmer auc-on sale today looking at old Red

Wing crocks. When I accused Rodf threatening the groundhog onacebook and wanting to pickleim in a crock he denied it. Heaid he just wanted to bury thettle gu,y not pickle him! I think

many of us feel the same. We areeeing green grass in the roaditches and pastures but many ofur pastures are so grazed downnd full of cow pies not muchrass is showing yet. We also didot get any major runoff in theraws, creeks, dams, etc. We aren need of some good soakingains that go on for a few days till

we complain of the mud. Hope-ully God still has us in his sights.

Thanks to those of you who re-ponded to my question last week

bout the old City building. Cindyscott emailed me saying there isplaque on it that says WPA

941 and lists the project num-er. George Afdahl also told me it

was a WPA project. I called theals at the city office too and they

were very helpful.I had an email from Albert and

Marie (Collins) DeKnikker. Sheold me the following things so Ihought Id share. We just gotome from a trip to northerndaho and WA where we visitedriends and family on both sides.

We visited Alberts aunts, Stellainenko and Mary Short. They

were from the Dowling Philiprea years ago! Both are in as-isted living complexes. Our

randson, Conner DeKnikkerworks for the Chevy garage in

hico,CA. He has designed webages with lots of interesting in-ormation. The internet address

where this can be found is:www.chevroletmucsle.com Manymodels are pictured as well as

arts for sale. Conner is now inollege and hopes to finish in lesshan four years. He made myomputer when he was in seventhrade! The funny part about thiss that he is a Ford man!

Bev Hudson and JaniceArends went to Sturgis Fridayvening to meet with their class-

mates working towards a Sep-ember high school class reunion.

Gene and Kim Secrest ofSpearfish were Sunday dinnerguests at Tucker Hudsons. TinaHudson joined them to take adrive down to the Sioux SpiritualCenter where they enjoyed a tourand visit with Father Pete andFather Ron.

Tucker and Bev Hudson werein Sturgis on Wednesday doingbusiness.

I accompanied Lacey, Quirtand Rio Wondercheck to RapidCity Friday. They were attendinga workshop put on by the SouthDakota School for the Deaf. Ittook place at the Game Fish andParks Campus West. Quirt andRio also took part in a ChIPevent put on by the Masons.ChIP stands for Child Identifica-tion Program. It is a charitableinitiative by South Dakota Ma-sonic Lodges to aid in the identi-fication and recovery of missingchildren. According to the Na-tional Center for Missing and Ex-

ploited Children, on average inthe United States, a child is re-ported missing every 43 sec-onds. The SD-ChIP program issupported monetarily by the Ma-sons and Lodges of South Dakotaand from donations made to theSouth Dakota Masonic Founda-tion, and are staffed by volun-teers from the local lodges as wellas by law enforcement and dentalprofessionals. The SD-ChIP pro-gram allows parents the opportu-nity to create a kit of identifyingmaterials for their child, free ofcharge. The kit contains a finger-print card, a physical description,a picture and video DVD of thechild, a dental imprint, and aDNA sample. The purpose of the

kit is to provide critical informa-tion to the public and to law en-forcement in the event that achild goes missing. Thank you toall our area Masons.

The GFP Campus West is lo-cated in the Robbinsdale and St.Martins Academy area of RapidCity on the west side of the high-way. My memory keeps trying tothink what this area used to beand I cant get it but it seems likeweddings were once held there?Im not sure. The address is 4130

Adventure Trail. The phone num-ber is 605-394-2310. I just want tomake families and teachersaware of this area. It is free and

open to the public. It has interac-tive displays that can be touched.There are mounted animals, ani-mal skins and informational dis-plays. Quirt about wore this olegrandma out going to all the dis-plays where he could crawlthrough something or climb onthe rocks. I didnt let anyone helphim find the outdoor hiking trails,my feet hurt the way it was. Hehad started the day there fishingand was the first little kid tocatch a fish! He loved the placeand so did I!

As I said earlier, Harold and Iattended the auction sale at Garyand Bambi Palmers Sunday. Thecollection of items was amazing.

As we looked at the items, Ithought of the number of yearsthis collection encompassed.Many of these things had beenthere for decades, collecting dustand holding memories. Somewere old items that had locatedthere in recent years. All the

items hold an aura of the area. Aswe often say, If these thingscould talk The area folks werethere too, adding a touch of sup-port and help for Bambi andGary. A farm sale is another com-ing together of the communitypeople who reminisce to othersand themselves about the timesand the people on this place.Today I heard ole Ray Cooper sto-ries being told here and therearound the yard. It is always sadto see a place and a family passfrom the community scene. If theplace has been sold to a personwho will be involved in the com-munity or a young family withchildren who will improve and en-rich our areas then it is easier to

bear. Too often today the rich peo-ple from Timbuktu are buyingland here and not doing anythingto fit into or enrich the area.South of us on the CheyenneRiver the place sold and the peo-ple built a big new house, orderedall the furniture shipped in fromwho knows where and are neverseen in our local stores. Yup,Damn good for the community,arent they? We have a new housealong one of our area roads. It hasbeen there 2 or 3 years and no onehas been able to tell me thenames of the folks who own it andmaybe live there a few days ayear. Now I think thats scary andsad at the same time. Fortu-nately, thats not the case here,

they know the person. We wishthe best for the new owner and forBambi and Gary as they enter anew section of their lives. Haroldand I enjoyed the day and I spentmoney on items I probably didntneed but was still glad to get. Wedrove on north and across so thatwe came south past Reid Palmersto the Opal Road and on south tohome. Every time I see the OpalHall in daylight it seems to haveshrunk. I know it was largerwhen I was a teen!

We had a few snow flurries lastWednesday morning, but mostlywind. Thursday was a nicespring day with temperaturesreaching the high 60s, about 20degrees warmer than the day be-fore! We had 70s Friday and Sat-

urday, and a little cooler Sunday.It was nice to have a little warmweather, although the moisture iswonderful!

Dave and Eldora Fischbachwent to Rapid City last Tuesday.Their daughter Susan flew infrom Indiana to spend a few days.They all went to Watertown forthe weekend to attend the FirstCommunion for Nathan and

Anitas daughter, Taryn. Theyhad a great time visiting. They re-turned home Monday, and backto Rapid City this week. Susanhas become quite a quilter now,like her mother, so she and El-dora kept busy with some proj-ects.

I got an email to share from

Craig Ness. Michon and MoniqueNess returned to Denver a fewweeks ago after a ten day visitwith Craig and Becky. Michonsboyfriend, Nick Guillen accompa-nied them. Last week Michon hada successful cornea replacementoperation at a clinic in Denver.She is recovering on schedulewith better sight. Craig andBecky are looking forward tobeing back in Faith country inmid June, and hope it warms upby then.

I had a little visit with MargeHoffman on the phone Monday.She said her granddaughter Bob-bie Galinat flew in from Washing-ton last week and spent a fewdays with her. Her flight out wasdelayed a day because of theweather.

Michele Hulm, Regent, andGrace Chamness attended theCatholic Daughters of the Ameri-cas state meeting in Brookings

April 19-20th. Michele McCainaccompanied the ladies. Snowgreeted them in Brookings, andagain as they returned to Faith.

After spending time attendingto a variety of projects; electingnew state officers, determiningwhich charities to donate to, etc.,it was time to relax.

Monday was working cattleay at the JT Vig ranch and at

Merle Vig's with dinner atDwayne and Zona's consisting ofMerle and Morgan Vig, MattTaton and Dr. Stangle being thextra diners.

Carmen Heidler went to RapidCity on Tuesday for an appoint-ment and on Thursday she went

o Faith for fun. Part of the daywas spent getting Dorothy Hei-

ler out of the house, seeing otherHeidler girls and visiting withCharmagne Lightfield.

Glenn, Margaret and Dan Fo-elman went into Faith on

Wednesday on business. Dan wasne of the many neighbors thatook in the sale of Gary and

Bambi Palmer on Sunday.Howard and I picked up

rocessed beef from Union Centern Thursday and took into Stur-is to my brother Wayne andoyce Simons. Then on to Rapid

City for appointments, repairs,hopping and to pick up my newefrigerator. Dale Ingalls called atur house that evening for awhile.

Dale and Marie Ingalls leftarly Friday morning to attend a

Small job, which is anunderstatement, started withtaking the refrig out of the

kitchen. New refrig wouldn'tcome in the door so off came thehouse doors. Of course, I wantedthat refrig to go to the basementto replace an older growly onethat was there. Old one went outfine, upstairs one wouldn't gothrough the basement dividerdoors so off they came. Old growlystill sits outside on the cementpad reminding me of all the trou-ble that they wentthrough. Warm carmel rolls soft-ened the pain that afternoon. Oneconsulation is that at my age itwon't happen again as I hope thisis my last refrigerator replace-ment.

Saturday, the Paul Winklerfamily hosted a birthday party forson Wyatt's 10th birthday at theElks Theatre. Zona Vig enjoyedthe movie part and then did someshopping.

Howard and I went to Sturgisfor the Simons Sibling Sundayhosted by Clara Beth Peterson atthe Carpenter home. All seven ofus were in attentance with Mittand Guyla Ness as guests, and ofcourse Larry and Nancy. A cou-ple of the in-laws didn't makeit. Next month will be hosted byRosalie and Vern as it will be alsoa celebration for Vern's 86 birth-day. Howard and I visited later

that afternoon with Chuck andUla Fowlkes before coming onhome.

Last week in my news I forgotto include that Mike and LisleReeve had spent Sunday afterchurch, on the 21st, having din-

ner in Rapid City to celebrateLisle's birthday. They were joinedby Alan, Marjorie and AaronHartwell. Both Lisle and ErmalReeve celebrated birthdays thatweek. Happy Belated Birthday,fellows.

Every day, I feel blessed torve the people of South Dakotathe U.S. House of Representa-

ves. In the time I have been infice, I have had the honor ofeeting hundreds of members of

ur nations armed forces. Southakota is home to a strong and

liable National Guard, as wellone of our nations finest mili-ry bases Ellsworth Air Forcease.I believe we have a responsibil-

y and a duty to ensure that ouren and women are fully pre-

ared and equipped for their mil-ary missions, which is why Imncerned with the Obama ad-inistrations recent decision toound the B-1 bombers atlsworth until October 1st.The B-1 has been the work-

orse of operations in Afghan-tan for the past decade. Thesembers, and pilots who fly them,e versatile and provide thenge necessary for our militarysissions. In fact, during 2011, B-

from Ellsworth were flying half

way around the world in less thantwo days to carry out missions inLibya. The thought of reducingthe flying hours and not providingour pilots the cockpit time theyneed concerns me and Im afraidwe could lose that level of readi-ness that enabled Ellsworth to de-ploy and strike in such a shortamount of time.

Earlier this week, I was able toquestion the Air Force directlyabout this decision. While I un-derstand the situation they arefacing because of recent seques-tration budget cuts, I am con-cerned that we are depriving ourairmen of the training they needin order to respond quickly. Itsimportant, even in light of budgetcuts, that we maintain a level ofreadiness that our military mis-sions require.

Once again, the Administra-tion has chosen to put politics be-fore people. Canceling WhiteHouse tours for the Americanpublic is one thing, but poten-

tially jeopardizing our militarys

readiness is a whole new ballgame.

Weve taken action in theHouse. I have voted for and sup-ported multiple efforts to replacethe sequester with targeted andresponsible spending reductions without raising taxes. Defensespending is only 20 percent of ournations spending, yet 50 percentof the spending cuts in the se-quester went towards defense.

This just doesnt add up.For example, I support policiesthat encourage Washington tolead by example. It was recentlyannounced that the House of Rep-resentatives is on track to savetaxpayers nearly $400 million be-cause of cuts we have imple-mented to trim House operatingbudgets. In my office, weve cutour budget by nearly 20 percentsince 2011.

Difficult decisions needed to bemade because of these smallerbudgets, but the House of Repre-sentatives is still operating andserving people, while saving tax-payers nearly half a billion dol-lars.

The men and women of our na-

tions armed forces deserve better

and so does South Dakota. I re-main committed to supportingpolicies that put our nation backon the right track. I hope thatyoull reach out to my office to letme know your thoughts. Contactinformation for my offices is listed

Grand River RounBy Betty Olson

We certainly had a variety ofweather this week. I drove toPierre last Monday for an Execu-tive Board meeting and the snowcovered roads made for some in-teresting driving. I only had onetrip home from Pierre all winterthat was worse than on Monday,and according to the calendar,this is supposed to be spring!

Spring finally arrived on Tues-day and all the snow was gone formy drive home that evening.Wednesday was typical springweather a snow squall followed

just minutes later by the sunshining through the clouds andthe two scenarios repeated most

of the day. The only thing consis-tent was the wind. After two daysof spring, summer and 70 degreetemperatures arrived on Thurs-day with the mercury climbing to80 degrees by Saturday.

Warmer weather sure makeslambing and calving easier. Reubhas the farming machinery firedup and is planning to plant someoats and barley for feed. I wasntgoing to plant a garden this year,but the beautiful weather causedme to get bitten by the gardenbug again and now Ive got a badcase of gardening fever.

Casey put the tiller on the trac-tor for me and Reub tilled up mybig garden so its ready to plant.The rhubarb, horseradish, and

winter onions are poking throughthe ground and my mountainrockets, hollyhocks, tulips, andirises are coming up. The treesare starting to leaf out and itlooks like my apricot trees,chokecherry bushes, currantbushes, and plum trees all sur-vived the winter. Hopefully weget some moisture so all this stuffcan grow!

The Harding County FFAawards night was Thursdayevening and I went in to watchand eat some of great dessertsthey served us. I visited with LoriJenkins at the awards night andshe told me that her father,Leonard Nygaard, is back in the
