Vol. 3, No. 170 Wednesday, October 8, 2014

WHOMP, WHOMP!In a joint effort by the Glasgow Fire Department and Long Run Fire Department, Tuesday night in the Shopko parking light was a “Fire Prevention” demonstration. One of the highlights for numerous kids was to climb into one of those great big fire trucks and give a pull on the rope that sounds the horn. Assisted by Long Run firefighter Dillon Koski, it certainly brought a broad smile to the face of Piper Brandt as she gave it a few good blasts. Free barbecued hot dogs and soda pop were also popular, and not just with the kids. A big “Thank You” to all our volunteer firefighters in our community for all your services dedication!

We will soon have a new school for all “Glasgow” elementary students, and if the name has to change, why not name it appropriately – Glasgow Elementary School. It sounds to me that the Irle family is accepting of that, and they pointed out an awesome tradition – a new school gets a new name. My kids were fortunate to attend the Southside School, a block away from their home located in the Original Townsite of Glasgow (that is a whole other burr under the saddle, because in my opinion it was one of the stupidest things that happened – closing the Southside school, especially after extensive repairs and remodels were made in the years just prior to it being tore down – sad day in the hood). Once the doors closed, all students were forced to go to the north side. Anybody with roots here will likely recall that back in the day, there was a separation, I’ll call it, of the schools – Irle, Eastside and Southside. Wouldn’t it be great to welcome all of the elementary age kids to their new Glasgow Elementary School? ~ Tan Leckie (I have a grandson in 2nd grade.)

How the fight

started...

I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar. –––––––– I haven’t verified this on Snopes, but it sounds legit… A recent study found that women who carry a little extra weight live longer than the men who mention it.

SHEShe lightens the day, and helps the sun rise,She lightens the way, by being so wise.She lightens duress with ears that listen,She lightens one’s stress with a smile that glistens.She lightens the gloom – her words not degrading,She lightens a room so radiantly waiting.She lightens one’s strife while helping another,She lightens my life. . . .SHE is my Mother.

Representative Steve Daines today called for a Presidential Disaster Declaration for several Montana counties, including Valley County, to repair damages caused by late summer flooding. In a letter to President Obama, Daines pressed the White House to honor the State of Montana’s request for a Presidential Disaster Declaration for Fort Belknap Indian Reservation and Blaine, Carter, Musselshell, Valley and Petroleum Counties. Severe flooding resulting from several bands of storms from August 21 to August 25 caused significant damage in these areas. “The flooding, nearly unprecedented at this time of year, caused severe damage to buildings, infrastructure and homes and created considerable hardships for Montana communities. Additionally, we have seen crops destroyed across the region making the livelihoods of many Montanans difficult to sustain,” Daines wrote in the letter to President Obama. “While I understand that Governor Bullock has committed significant state funds to this recovery effort, I believe a federal component is essential to make the necessary repairs as it is beyond the financial means of the state.”

Daines calling for federal funding

Senator Jon Tester’s haircut may be from the 1950s, but he knows that being COOL never gets old. COOL – Country of Origin Labeling – allows American families to know where the meat they buy at the store is raised and processed. Tester is a staunch supporter of the rule, saying that consumers have the right to know where their food comes from and that U.S. producers have the right to market their livestock as born and raised in America. But with the popular rule still under consideration at the World Trade Organization (WTO), Tester sent Senate leaders a bipartisan letter urging them to reject any efforts to weaken or suspend COOL rules as Congress works on end-of-the-year funding legislation. Tester’s letter, which is signed by fellow Montana Senator John Walsh, highlights how earlier this year the Senate Appropriations Committee rejected attempts to weaken or suspend COOL enforcement. sense food labeling.” “The bottom line is that the overwhelming majority of Americans want to know the origin of the meat they feed their families. American should not be deprived of that information,” Tester said.

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks and the Montana Department of Livestock remind hunters that horses are required to have a brand inspection before crossing county lines. “It’s a pretty common violation during hunting season,” said John Grainger, Brands Enforcement Division administrator for DOL. “Producers move livestock all the time and are generally familiar with transportation requirements, but sometimes hunters just don’t know.” Grainger recommends that hunters get their horses inspected in advance of their planned departure. The fine for not having a proper inspection is $135.The inspection is good for a year of movement, or one can obtain an inspection good for the life of the horse. “If you hunt on horses, just add getting a brand inspection to your check list,” Grainger said. An annual inspection costs $6, and a lifetime is $25. A map of brand inspectors by county can be found on the DOL website at liv.mt.gov; click “Brands Enforcement” then “Service Map.” Annual and lifetime inspections can also be issued at livestock markets, which are also marked on the online map.

Hunters Reminded To Have Horses Inspected
