Q: At a farm sale earlier this summer, I bought sev-eral older fruit jars. One is especially interesting. It is a “Leader” jar with glass lid and wire bail. It is a quart-size jar and is olive green in color. Even though I have several vintage fruit jars, I have not seen an-other one like it. I paid $25 for the jar. -- Melissa, Covington, La.

“Ok everyone,” said the the instructor at the birthing class trying to get everyone’s attention. “We are going to do an ex-ercise now, that’s purpose is to help the men sympathize with their partners.” “We have here what’s called a pregnancy suit,” said the woman instructor, holding up an artificial stomach with a strap. “This imitates the feeling of being pregnant.” Which Husband volunteers to be the first one to try it on?” “I will”

said one man, taking the suit and trying it on. “This isn’t too bad said the man walking around. I think I could get used to this.” “Ok”, said the instructor smiling, “now I would like you to bend down and pick up my pen from the floor.” “You want me to pick it up?” he said hesitantly, “just as I would if I was pregnant?” “Yes!” said the instructor. “Honey,” said the man turning to his spouse “do you mind picking up that pen for me?”


Even With S.D. Pheasant Numbers Up 76 Percent, Pheasants Forever Laser-Focused on Long-Term Upland Habitat SolutionsBrookings, S.D. - August 26 -

The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks has completed the annual pheasant brood survey and the results show a 76 percent increase in the statewide pheasants-per-mile index as compared to 2013. While thrilled with the report, Pheasants Forever remains focused on work-ing with state conservation policy leaders in charting a roadmap to enhance upland habitat in South Dakota for long-term sustainability of pheasant hunting traditions.

Dave Nomsen, who leads Pheasants Forever’s new regional head-quarters in Brookings, S.D., says the positive brood report should excite pheasant hunters, but needs to be taken in context with the sub-stantial upland habitat losses of recent years. “The ‘pheasant crisis’ South Dakota has experienced over the past few years has not been solved. While tough winters and wet springs play a role in population changes, it’s the loss of habitat that’s responsible for the long-term decline of pheasants in the state. And we haven’t yet replaced the 1.8 million acres of grasslands and prairies lost since 2006. Stabilizing South Dakota’s pheasant habitat base will help increase pheasant num-bers over the long term.”

“Habitat is at the forefront of the conversation right now and is a crucial factor in pheasant numbers,” stated South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Secretary Jeff Vonk, “Bird numbers are higher this year due to excellent reproduction in parts of the state where quality habitat conditions still exist, primarily on grasslands including those enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program as well as fields of cereal crops such as winter wheat. We continue to work in cooperation with the Governor’s Pheasant Habitat Work Group, partner organizations and agencies, and landowners to provide an improved future for habitat in our state.”

The Pheasant Habitat Work Group, a 13-member task force ap-pointed by Gov. Dennis Daugaard, has met seven times this year and is expected to hand a report of recommended ways to enhance South Dakota’s upland habitat for pheasants to the governor by mid-Septem-ber. “To a pheasant hunter and conservationist, that report should be equally, if not more heavily, anticipated than the brood count report,” Nomsen says, “I look forward to the recommendations of the gover-nor’s task force and the subsequent actions of policy makers that will hopefully help to assure that South Dakota will forever be known as the “Pheasant Capital of the World.”

South Dakota’s statewide pheasant hunting season opens on Satur-day, Oct. 18, and runs through Jan. 4, 2015.

Pheasants Forever in South DakotaSouth Dakota’s 32 Pheasants Forever chapters account for 6,000

members statewide. Those chapters have spent $4.8 million to com-plete 24,000 habitat projects since the first South Dakota chapter formed in Minnehaha County in 1985. Those projects have improved 360,000 acres for wildlife.

Pheasants Forever, including its quail conservation division, Quail Forever, is the nation's largest nonprofit organization dedicated to up-land habitat conservation. Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever have more than 140,000 members and 745 local chapters across the United States and Canada. Chapters are empowered to determine how 100 percent of their locally raised conservation funds are spent, the only national conservation organization that operates through this truly grassroots structure.

• Use club soda on a damp rag to wipe down your stainless-steel sink. It will help bring back the shine.

• “My mother swears by wrapping her feet in a vinegar-soaked rag once a week to soften calluses. She does this before her bath, and uses a pumice stone to rid her heels of hardened spots on the skin. It seems to work for her, so I thought I would pass it on!” -- C.D. in Colorado

• “Peppermint is a wonderful cure for indigestion. To make a quick pep-permint tea, use a rolling pin to smash three to four peppermint candies. Add them to a glass of water and microwave for a minute and a half. Stir to melt the candies completely, and drink slowly.” -- G.L. in California

• “With schools back in session again, I would like to encourage dads to come and visit their child’s classroom. We have lots of volunteers, but never as many as we need. We love for dads to be involved. I have been a teacher for many years, and although fathers have become much more involved than they used to be, we still need their presence in the classroom.” --- T.L. in Illinois

• “Save on children’s clothes by buy-ing after-season. Summer and winter clothes can be purchased a size or two ahead for next to nothing.” -- M.M. in Idaho

• For a little extra visibility in the basement, try applying glow-in-the-dark or reflective tape on the edges of the stairs.

• On Sept. 30, 1949, after 15 months and more than 250,000 flights, the Berlin Airlift officially comes to an end. The daily airlift supplied tons of food and other goods. Without firing a shot, the Americans foiled the Soviet plan to hold West Berlin hostage.

• On Sept. 29, 1954, Willie Mays, centerfielder for the New York Giants, makes an amazing over-the-shoulder catch of a fly ball hit by Cleveland Indians first baseman Vic Wertz to rob Wertz of extra bases in Game 1 of the 1954 World Series. The catch has gone down as one of the greatest in baseball history.

• On Oct. 1, 1962, Johnny Carson takes over from Jack Paar as

• On Oct. 2, 1971, “Maggie May” becomes Rod Stewart’s first No. 1 hit and tops the U.K. and U.S. pop charts simultaneously. “Maggie May” was a last-minute addition to the album “Every Picture Tells a Story” and was originally released as the “B” side to the single “Reason to Believe.”
