Dr. Michael R. Rosmann, Ph.D Agricultural safety and health are improving, but not for psychological injuries and fatalities Agricultural occupations, defined by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) as farming, ranching, farm worker, forestry, and commercial fishing, have the highest rate of occupation-related deaths, according to a 2015 U.S. Department of Labor report that analyzed data accumulated for 2013. The fatality rate of 22.2 per 100,000 persons was well above transportation/warehousing (13.1 per 100,000), mining/quarrying and oil/gas extraction (12.3 per 100,000), and construction (9.4 per 100,000). A 2015 Agricultural Safety and Health Council of America (ASHCA) publication says approximately 480 U.S. farmers have died each recent year in agriculture-related events, which is about half the number of yearly agriculture-related fatalities during the early 1990s. Although progress is occurring in reducing farming-related fatalities, there is still room for improvement. Tractors are the main cause of farming-related deaths—about 125 annually according to ASCHA. We are blessed to live in a very loving and caring community. This has been felt in abundance through the years and more than ever after the passing of my husband. The family of Clare Fox thanks everyone for your love, support, prayers, hospitality, cards, memorials and friendship. We were wrapped in care and love from the moment Pastor Norm and Linda came to be with us at Sanford Hospital after Clare’s passing. We thank all involved in Clare’s beautiful service. We also want to thank our medical community who gave Clare exemplary care. Thank you to Trinity Lutheran Church and Armstrong Funeral Home. Clare loved the Lisbon Community. Ilo and the family of Clare Fox 52 Annual nd AGRICULTURALIST of the year BANQUET Friday, March 18 Ransom County Expo Center Social at 6:30 p.m. • Supper at 7 p.m. Lisbon Eagles will be catering the meal Jeff ‘Tigger’ Erhardt, Cowboy Poet, will be the entertainment for the evening 2 mondAy-FridAy 8Am-5Pm sATurdAy 8Am-noon In Stock: Tickets can be purchased at the Ransom Cou nt Extension y Service Many of these fatalities and many serious injuries could have been prevented if roll-over protection systems (ROPS) were mandated for tractors. In Sweden the number of tractor-rollover fatalities has declined to near zero annually, as almost all tractors now have mandatory ROPS. About 115 children from 0 to 18 years of age succumbed on an annual basis recently in agricultural workplaces but only 20 percent were actively working. The other 80 percent were bystanders or playing in agricultural settings. The current rate of child fatalities on farms is about half of what it was a generation ago. Grassroots efforts like farm safety day camps, Extension workshops, and the Farm Safety For Just Kids organization are among the main contributors to the reduction in childhood fatalities. What are the costs of farmingrelated fatalities and injuries? In 2015 the average age of the primary farm operator, and his/her retirement, were 59 and 74 respectively; the average net farm income per household was $123,432, according to the USDA Economic Research Service. Multiplying the average net farm income by 15 years of earning capacity yields an estimated loss of $1.85 million per farm operation. The costs of a farmer’s death to his/her family and community are greater--perhaps incalculable, for the emotional pain they suffer and the knowledge and leadership which are no longer available. Non-life threatening injuries take a toll too, for about 61,000 agriculture-related injuries (continued on pg.4) Daylight Savings Time Begins EL I D Specials $ F o R FAmiLy TAke home sPeciAL -Any LArge singLe ToPPing PizzA -FAmiLy order oF gArLic cheese BreAd -Any 2 LiTer PoP $ 5 17 99 Summer iS Coming! $ smALL engine rePAir 1 • smALL shAke • smALL mALT Turkey & AmericAn cheese, Fries & $ 9 9 medium PoP, TeA, or LemonAde 3 cALL 683-3211 ASk FoR JoHN ’s e r u it n r u F y s a t n a F ’s It a i n a M h Marc t n e v E g n Beddi PURCHASE A NEW MATTRESS SET PRICED AT $499 OR HIGHER AND GET YOUR CHOICE OF MATTRESS PROTECTOR, DEEP POCKET SHEET SET, OR MEMORY FOAM PILLOW “Limited” Pillow Top TWIN SIZE SET ONLY $249 FULL SIZE SET ONLY $319 QUEEN SIZE SET ONLY $359 KING SIZE SET ONLY $549 650 Coil Mattress Set TWIN SIZE SET $329 FULL SIZE SET ONLY $429 $499 KING SIZE SET ONLY $699 TWIN SIZE SET ONLY $399 SUPER SPECIAL “Midnight” Body-Form Gel Mattress Set Gel Infused Memory Foam Construction!!

Deadline is Wednesday at 5 p.m. --------------------------------------41tcx Valley News Oh dear, how could a person write down seven names and send it off with one missing. The girls met at Hodenattes for an old age session of years ago. The one name is energetic, friendly Carmen Cavett. She was there with oddities in her life also which packed a lot of fun. This rover checked her copy and could not find the seventh person in the paper which is Carmen Cavett, one of the fun group. What a day to live in North Dakota with up to 70 temp for March and then white ermine nearly wiped out. The mower looked tempting today to scramble the left over leaves. Instead she went to baking and it was donuts--the third batch. This rovers recipe was in a published cookbook and they are super--if you like to stand over lard grease with tablespoon of vinegar added before the grease gets hot. Set the kettle in the sink as it goes crazy when the vinegar is added so better not let it get too hot--just melted. Here is the recipe and I’m eating the third one now with Brooke stating she would like half the recipe all made sent to her house. Lard can be purchased at Teals grocery. If they find it for you, they might expect you to bring some donuts. Beat in mixer, one half cup of oil, one cup of either sour or sweet milk, one cup sugar, three eggs beaten, 1/2 tsp salt, one tsp soda, two tsp baking powder, one tsp vanilla, one tsp nutmeg, four cups flour or enough to handle the dough. Last cup of flour may have to be stirred in by hand. Roll and let stand ten or fifteen minutes --get to work cutting when the grease sizzles with a drop of water. Makes a good size batch but not enough to please everyone. Sister Ilene Larson fourteen years younger and not born in the sandhills would not remember this sotry of cracklings. My mom Mamie Hoaby ace in the hole was crackling gravy. Of course back in the twenties it was depression time to everything was used. Dad Ted Hoaby grew a large patch of onions--there is a picture of this rover sitting in one of them at probably year and a half old. He sold them for a quarter a dozen. Then it was gathering scraps of wood, placing them under a fifty gallon barrel of water. Fire was started and a pig run down. Mom would sit and stir that blood from the hog and in the evening would be “brucrub” or blood cake with pieces of pig fat mixed in, baked in the oven and coming out like a regular cake. Smear some home made butter, made my shaking a gallon pail of cream until it materialized. Now the blood is taken care of and knives are sharpened (Ted Hoabys Dad Christ Hoaby made knives fit for a king). The hog is dipped into the boiling water up and down and hair skinning is on. After sometime the hog come out pure white glistening hanging in the trees until cut up, put in a smoke house after cutting fat away which comes to the crackling stage. It is put in the oven until rendered with some of small pieces held back and out comes the cracklings and they were spread on a newspaper. An onion was cut up, sauteed in a cup of dripplings, stirred and a cup of flour added or maybe a hand full mixed in adding a whatever of water or milk. Just before serving this smooth gravy a large cup of cracklings was stirred in. Of course salt and pepper had to be put in. What a supper when a large loaf of homemade bread was sliced up for each plate, covering it with the glorious tasting gravy mixed with cracklings. There was Ilene Larson groping with all of her heavy musical keyboard and amps and mikes Monday to play at Parkside for the birthday party of the month. Ilene goes into polkas, waltzes, country lore. She does not read a note so it is planted in her brain, thousands of songs and no problems to sign or play them. She played guitar in a band for years so has had a lot of practice and with by Irene Hoenhause musical folks learned young. Ted and Mamie Hoaby played at dances when all six of Hoabys were born-Ted on fiddle, Mom Mamie on the organ or piano. Back to Parkside after a flu attack up there, a super number of residents came out for the program with hand clapping and a spring time fever in their blood. How wonderful to walk into a home and find this!!! Last Wed. church was called off at Parkside 9 in the morn because of a flu epidemic. This Wed. it will be full agale again when Ilene’s sis, Irene a lot older zips in with Easter Parade to begin with. She plays tunes they call for such as “Don’t Be Angry” until the clock hits 9:15 and the hymn books come into use. Here was Pastor Aaron to bring a great sermon mixed with songs at 9:30. All in all a great multitude appeared the same as for the birthday party of the month. He is from the Redeemer Church and what a spirit to bring into the homes. Next comes Swingbed at the Hospital. This rover called on Jan Hansen to play and she did as Pastor Aaron gave the great sermon along with singing. Thanks to all that came and Jan for zipping away from her job at the Gazette. Beverly Anne church time came and singing went on as Pastor Aaron zipped in. He does a super job even being a young smiling Pastor. He even sang a solo without accompanyment and it was met with many smiles. Cookie time came at 3:00 with this rover ringing out with “Easter Parade” and “If Jesus Goes With Me.” Thanks to all. The flu is rampant and one that it hit was Alice Hanson plus Pastor Norm. They are fine now and may everyone miss this nuisance with the gorgeous warm weather and rain coming down. At Swingbed Dorothy Anderson and this rover had a great visit over her over a month problem which included surgery in Fargo. She stated on Friday she was to go home and her daughter Linda would come to spend sometime. Prayers to all of them. Also to Danny Anderson who is on a list to get well and Charles and Marlene Jorgenson. There was Mike Hoaby zipping up the Valley and delivering barbecued gizards to this rover. They were fantastic and was the supper treat--thanks Mike and he went home with donuts 7:30 in morn here comes Brooke Hoenhause to replenish a plastic bag with donuts and another with powdered sugar as she headed to school. There was Mark Carlblom and Chesley Knutson bouncing in at Ruth Carlblom’s to see how she was doing and a great visit from Milnor. Oh my, you get acquainted with people in odd ways. There is this friendly insurance man who answered from his office in Wisconsin. Stated it was about sixty degrees with very little snow, about the same as in Lisbon, N.D. He is young, single and very much at his business and thanks to him for the chat. This is Zach Nolan of Sun Prairie, Wisc. Beverly Anne went on Friday with a great attendance and Pastor Norm as the sermon giver. He gave on the one who got his inheritance and ended up with the pigs. There were Ruth Carlblom, Kay Reinke, Clarice Mairs and Gerry Freeberg with relatives and friends for the church service. This rover belting out with Easter Parade as they marched out for cookie time. Thanks to all that came and may we not end up like the son who left but did return and was in the arms of his Dad--not his brother tho. Ruth Carlblom and this rover zipped into Alice Hieggelke apartment and went out with some of her past treasures in clothes and cards. Lois Donau put in a call to this rover and she is a jolly sort to visit with. This rover put a wrong letter (continued on pg. 3) Are You Thinking About Selling Land In 2016? Let Us Represent You...

JAMES VALLEY Customer Appreciation ANNUAL FORT RANSOM OFFICIAL NOTICE OF CITY OF completed SFN 2704 Petition/Certificate $150 A nationwide rain and snow reporting network is looking for volunteers in North Dakota to become part of the state’s climatological history, says Adnan Akyuz, state climatologist and professor of climatological practices at North Dakota State University. These observers will measure rainfall, snowfall and snow depth as part of the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow (CoCoRaHS) Network. Some observers also measure the water equivalent of the snow after it melts. North Dakota has been collecting precipitation (rainfall and snowfall) data since the early 1900s in most places. When farmers, engineers, and weather and river forecasters ask for precipitation data for a given location, that information comes mostly from volunteer observers. “Now is your chance to provide that data and be a part of the state’s climatological history,” Akyuz says. “It’s fun, easy and only takes five minutes a day.” North Dakota has more than 300 such volunteer precipitation observers. “However, it is not nearly enough,” Akyuz says. “We need as many volunteer observers as possible around the state to help forecast flood potential, as well as drought assessments. Don’t worry if you do not know how to do all that. We have a lot of training materials for you to become an observer. All you need is an interest in weather to participate in the program and a cylindrical rain gauge.” In your neighborhood, volunteers of all ages and backgrounds already may be measuring precipitation in their own backyards as part of the CoCoRaHS Network, which has grown to more than 15,000 volunteer observers covering every state. Data from CoCoRaHS Network volunteers routinely are being viewed and used by many professions and organizations, including meteorologists, hydrologists, emergency managers, city utilities, insurance adjusters, agribusinesses, engineers, science teachers and the National Weather Service. Data are used for many applications, such as water resource planning, severe storm warnings, teaching earth science, predicting crop yields and assessing hail damage. During March, the network is running its annual competition among states called “CoCoRaHS March Madness.” The idea is to see how many new observers it can recruit in each state. North Dakota was the winner in 2010, 2012 and 2015. “We want to show the nation that weather is important in our state, and we also want to keep the March Madness Cup here at home,” Akyuz says. Go to http://www.cocorahs. org/application.aspx to volunteer for the CoCoRaHS Network. Tuesday, August 14 JAMES VALLEY GRAIN IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER.

ASHCA noted that every day about 167 agricultural workers suffer lost work-time and 5 percent of these events involve permanent impairments. Are farming-related psychological fatalities due to suicide, and injuries such as anxiety and depression, decreasing like farming-related physical fatalities and injuries are decreasing? Men involved in agriculture currently are about five times more likely to undertake suicide (about 25 per 100,000) than women (about 5 per 100,000) and about 60 percent more likely than non-farming men to undertake suicide.

To illustrate, suicides by farm men more than doubled during the worst part of the 1980s’ Farm Crisis. It isn’t known how many more farming-related deaths were purposeful, such as events that were disguised as “accidents” to enable survivors to collect life insurance proceeds. How often are anxiety and depressive illnesses and resultant lost days of work on the farm also underreported? Few of the people farming have unemployment insurance coverage; others want to “tough it out,” so they don’t seek professional help even when needed. The prevalence of reported serious psychological injuries due to anxiety and depression for the agricultural population is considerably higher than for the general U.S. population, as the recent series of Farm and Ranch Life articles about the behavioral health of people engaged in agriculture pointed out. The annual prevalence for one or both of these disorders is about 14 percent among the general population and about 20 percent among the agricultural population during profitable farming eras, but higher during stressful eras. The cost of lost productivity due to psychological injuries is probably greater than for physical injuries, but not fully known. Why do NIOSH and other federal programs not spend more dollars on the prevention of agricultural injuries and fatalities of a psychological nature? The answer is partly that NIOSH and other federal funding sources are insufficient, mostly because the majority of current legislators don’t place priority on these occupational jeopardies. Moreover, few private agriculture-related foundations and corporations offer research, training or educational funds for agricultural behavioral health and safety. It’s easier to generate legislative and public sentiment, and financial investment, for crop and livestock insurance programs and physical health issues than for psychological protections of the people engaged in agricultural occupations. American residents and institutions could doing much more to prevent farmer suicides and behavioral health perils. Farmers are our country’s most important resource in farming. Early March in North Dakota is typically more conducive to riding a snowmobile than a motorcycle. Recent recordhigh temperatures, however, have resulted in large numbers of riders taking to the roads to enjoy the early season. While motorcycles are a preferred mode of transportation for many people, precautions are required by both the motorcycle operator and drivers of other vehicles, says AAA. In the past five years there have been 56 fatal and more than 900 injury crashes in North Dakota involving motorcycles. A longer season may cause those numbers to tragically increase. A few key points can help make the season safer than years past. AAA reminds motorists to be prepared and to look twice before making a lane change or turning left in front of oncoming traffic. Motorcycles are more difficult to see in traffic than larger cars and trucks. Also, while stopping distance for motorcycles is nearly the same as for cars, slippery or sand-covered pavement can make stopping quickly more difficult. For this reason, other drivers need to give motorcyclists an extra margin of safety by maintaining a safe following distance. Finally, other drivers should never cut in front of a motorcyclist, especially if driving a high-profile vehicle, which can tend to kick-up rocks and other hazardous road debris.

This is a good time of the year to share four years of data and experiences collected at the Dickinson Research Extension Center on May calving. Why? The calving date is more than a calendar date on the wall of the barn. The date affects every aspect of a beef cattle operation and should be discussed with the utmost diligence. Producers with several enterprises on the farm or ranch must fit all on the same calendar in the same barn. I would be the first to say, “Avoid a knee-jerk action that changes the calving date,” but the discussion needs to be held. So let’s start. Well, the weather is nice in most areas, and the traditional calving time of March and April is fast approaching. The busiest dates will be late in the first week of April, with most cow-calf producers starting in mid- March. If I had to pick a historical start date, it would be March 15. A review of the CHAPS (Cow Herd Appraisal Performance System) data set of North Dakota Beef Cattle Improvement Association producers shows the actual 20-year (1994 to 2013) average calving date is April 4. The average date for fall calf weigh-up is Oct. 12. These dates have changed little, with no strong trend showing any significant change, indicating producer contentment with these traditional dates. Producers calving outside of these dates are rare. In fact, historically, most have not even been interested in discussing the topic. So why even bring up the topic? We have three reasons to discuss it: first, weather effects on calf death loss; second, a decreasing labor pool with the proper cow-calf management skillset; and, third, the growing expenses associated with cattle production. The three reasons are not in order of importance. Changing the calving date is the most important decision a cattle producer ever will make and should not be made under duress or out of frustration. Historically, most beef producers have been focused on the weather, which generally involves a bad day or two every year. The problem is that every calving season will have a day or two of bad weather. The center has calved in almost every month of the year through time and has encountered weather challenges every calving season. So why the discussion? Simple: escalating costs. The traditional approach may be the most comfortable, but if production costs exceed revenue, then the year’s effort is of no avail. Crop producers have the same concern; however, crop producers can change crops in an effort to produce a crop with a value greater than the expense. Although that is not always easy, the crop producers certainly explore several options each growing season. Beef producers generally have no options to switch species, so change within the beef enterprise is the main option. Previously, I have noted projected production costs of more than $650 per calf, which is above the speculated gross margin of $600, thus the negative dollars. And beef production in pounds of beef sold seems fairly stable, which is another not-so-good thing. These are not good feelings, especially if nothing changes, but the challenge is doable. So the time is now to think hard, to bring in the nonconventional thoughts and develop a plan. Two things come to mind. First, if costs go up, pounds need to go up, too, which means keeping the calves longer to add pounds without reinvesting more dollars. Second, overall costs of the operation need to be pushed down. This does not mean painting the gate a different color, but changing the gate - in other words, significant change. The center was in that very situation and made a change. For years, the center had a targeted calving start date of March 15 and a bull turnout date around June 1. The average calving date was March 29. After a diligent discussion, the gates were changed; the bullpen gate was locked shut until Aug. 1. The temptation to get a bolt cutter, open that gate and let those bulls out was real. But we resisted. The first change that occurred at the center once bull turn-out was delayed from June 1 to Aug. 1 was the date that the cows start the third trimester of pregnancy. As cows advance in terms of days pregnant, a significant change in nutritional requirements occurs. When the cows are exposed June 1, the third- trimester day is Dec. 12, while for the cows exposed Aug. 1, the third-trimester day is Feb. 12. Delayed calving allows producers to take a more aggressive approach to late- season utilization of cover crops, crop residue and other forage sources, resulting in a one-third to two-thirds reduction in winter feed costs.

March blizzard of 1966 known as ‘Blizzard of the Century’ By Janet Hansen (Editor’s Note: This is the second part of a two-part series on the Blizzard of March 2-5, 1966 and the events which occurred during that storm in the Ransom County area. The first section of the article appeared in the March 7 issue of the Ransom County Gazette.) The March 10 and 17, 1966 issues of the Ransom County Gazette contained many stories of human emergencies, adventures, and mishaps which had occurred during the big blizzard. Mrs. Arland Olson, who lives on a farm six miles east of Sheldon, had become very ill and needed to get to the hospital in Lisbon. The Olson family and their neighbors, armed with shovels, set out from the Olson farm with three cars in caravan style. When they found they could not get through to Highway 46, they resorted to traveling on side roads. They eventually got to Enderlin, but had to double back to Sheldon, where roads were blocked, the entourage traveled through open fields. After nearly seven hours of travel through the blizzard, they finally arrived at the Lisbon hospital. Mrs. Olson’s condition the following morning, was described as “improved.” At the Lisbon Hospital, a storm-cut staff pitched in with extra hours and unfamiliar tasks to care for a full to over-full patient load. A staff of eight, instead of the usual fifteen, cared for over 20 patients for two days. The dining room was turned into a dormitory where the staff members took turns getting a little rest. A nurse, Mrs. Levi Carlson of Nome, and Director of Nursing Mrs. Kenneth Bachman of Englevale, stayed from early Wednesday to Sunday evening, with only a few short periods of rest during the night. On Friday evening five employees stayed at the hospital overnight, including cooks Inga Nagel and Annie Olk and nurses’ aides Faye Smith and Gusta Evenson. Radiologist Kay Foss stayed with RN Mrs. Bill Kubas, who shuttled back and forth between her home and the hospital. Mrs. W. R. Pagel, president of the Hospital Guild, put in countless volunteer hours working as a nurse’s aide. Mrs. John McCann, who became stranded while visiting her mother in the hospital, rolled up her sleeves and put in long hours doing housekeeping and laundry chores. Employees who lived in the city were transported to and from work in police vehicles and by Dick Armstrong’s ambulance. Armstrong was kept busy between 3:00 and 5:00 a.m. Thursday morning taking several patients to the hospital. On Sunday morning Armstrong met a plane from Lucca at the airport. Orville Huseby had flown baby DeLaine Huseby to Lisbon for treatment at the hospital in a plane equipped with skis. The cleaning crew could not get to work at the North Dakota Veterans Home, but the cooks stayed for the duration of the storm, so all was well. At Parkside Home, Mrs. Grant Peterson worked well over 40 hours and Mrs. Lorraine Devitt worked over 30 hours before going home to rest and sleep. Mrs. Fritz Houge came to work at the home early Friday morning and stayed all day. Lee Bratland came later in the day and stayed all night. Mrs. Bill Schuessler helped with supper on Friday. Approximately 25 to 30 men, employees of the Melroe Mfg. Co., Gwinner, mostly from out of town, were marooned for 48 hours at the factory during the blizzard. Al Holmstrom, one of the foremen, made it to the store for food and supplies and several Gwinner ladies made hot dishes which were sent over to the plant. The men were fed in the lunchroom at the new office building and the carpeted floor in the conference room served as sleeping quarters for the men between work shifts. Frank Hanson had reportedly left his home on Thursday morning, March 4, while the storm was still raging. He picked up Dale Hanson to take him along to go to his ranch 20 miles east of Lisbon to look after his cattle. They made it to Hanson’s ranch, but could not return. They were able to get some food from a neighbor and stayed at the ranch. On Saturday, after the storm had subsided, Hanson’s pickup was spotted by O.R. Ness as he flew over the Hanson ranch in his plane. A plow was sent out to open the road late that afternoon. However, Frank and Dale did not return until Sunday afternoon, after checking the cattle. Martin Thompson was taken to the hospital after having suffered a stroke at his home. It took some snow shoveling for the ambulance to reach him. He was reportedly doing all right after having arrived at the hospital. Lisbon High School Band Director Kenneth Enstad had taken seven girls from the woodwind section of his Cadet Band to Valley City on Wednesday morning to attend a woodwind clinic. Due to the storm, which struck that afternoon, they could not get home. Mr. Enstad managed to get the last three available rooms at the Rudolph Hotel. The girls stayed at the hotel while Mr. Enstad found housing for himself at the college dorm. The girls included: Janice Ulland, LuJean Lyons, Marion Franson, Bernice Hallquist, Doris Lund, Leslie Larson and Nancy Dallas. The group returned to Lisbon on Sunday. Van Lozier was the first to be shoveled out on the north end of town on Saturday. He, with the help of Lorelei and Grover Orr, shopped for needed groceries for their less fortunate neighbors, getting them enough food to last until Monday. Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Berube had left Lisbon just before the storm hit to pick up a load of machinery. They started home on Friday, but only made it as far as Wahpeton, when the roads became impassible. They found a motel and stayed in Wahpeton until Sunday, when they completed the trip home to Lisbon. A baby daughter was born during the blizzard to Mr. and Mrs. DuRayne Nelson at their home near Wyndmere. After the storm subsided, Mrs. Nelson and the baby were taken to the St. Francis Hospital in Breckenridge. The baby was welcomed by a brother, Jeffrey. Grandparents were Mr. and Mrs. Hjalmer Nelson and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Kjar, all of McLeod. Mrs. Russell Elijah and her son, Bobby were stranded in Canistota, SD, where Bobby was taking treatments. Mrs. Ida Jorstad had passed away at her home on Monday after a lingering illness. Due to the storm, the funeral which was to be held on Friday was postponed and held Tuesday afternoon at the Standing Rock Church in Fort Ransom with Pastor M.E. Arneson officiating. Mrs. Larry (Ilene) Larson climbed a snowbank and stepped down on her garage roof and shoveled four feet of snow off the building to keep the roof from caving in. She stated that the snow was touching the highline wires in their yard and that it was not safe for her son, Brian, to play outside due to the danger from the snowdrifts, which resembled the rocks along the Needles Highway in the Black Hills. Along the Valley Road there were many people without telephone service. Machinery and some of the buildings were covered by snowdrifts at the Archie and Charles Jorgenson homes. A few telephone poles stuck out only about a foot above the snow. Wilbur Hansen had started for work on Friday morning but ended up in the ditch a couple miles from home. He managed to walk back home, being pushed by the wind. The Harold Johnson family was blocked in by snow and their gas supply was running low. They reported having lost a couple of head of livestock. They told of running out of butter, but Grandma Johnson showed them how to make butter by shaking cream in a can. The Johnson kids were anxious to taste the buttermilk that their father raved about. However, when they tasted it, they questioned whether his taste buds were working. The Cass Clay milk truck could not pick up the milk from area farmers because the road to Fargo was not opened until Sunday morning and the country roads leading to the farms were blocked with snow. Some of the milk was dumped, while some farmers scrounged around for extra containers in which to store the milk. Chet Larson drove with the milk truck driver, Gerald Sletmoe, on Monday morning. Irene Hoenhause, writing in her news column in the Gazette, reported that Sletmoe had appeared in the valley, longbearded and looking tired after only an hour’s sleep, on Monday morning. He took his relief driver, Myles Hoenhause with him, hoping to complete the route by Tuesday morning. It was reported that Verona had been hit hard by the storm. Mountains of drifts virtually covered the town and everything came to a standstill. There was no equipment in town adequate for moving the drifts, so the county snowplows had to come to the rescue. Dick Taylor’s pickup was located in a drift with four feet of snow over the top of the cab. School busses stopped on Main Street and the students trudged to the school from there. Cattle losses were reported at the Art Dietrich and R.D. Magill farms. The Heisers, from north of Verona, had gone to Fargo just before the storm started. They were accompanied by Mark Laney, son of neighbors Mr. and Mrs. Joe Laney, who had an appointment with an orthodontist, and Mrs. Louis Christensen, the mother of six. As the storm developed, Heiser called the Laney farm to say they were starting from Fargo. He asked if Mr. Laney could go to his farm and put the cattle in the barn for him. Laney and a son went to the Heiser farm, but were unable to get back home. In the meantime, the Heiser’s car went into the ditch. Aided by two young men from Fargo, they managed to reach home. With the storm howling outside, Mrs. Laney was alone with the rest of the children. Louise Christensen was babysitting with the Heisler family. The young men from Fargo were stranded, so came home with the Heislers. Mr. Laney and his son were also still at the Heisers. After the storm was over, someone remarked that it was a good thing Mrs. Heiser was used to a crowd (they had nine children) because she ended up cooking for 17 during the storm’s duration. It was reported that Lisbon was without bus service or mail from Wednesday, March 2 to Monday, March 7. People were reportedly very happy to see the mail truck arrive that Monday and were seen carrying their mail home by the armload. It was estimated that 50 to 70 percent of the pheasant crop was destroyed in the blizzard and the partridge population was completely wiped out. Your e c i v r e S Area GUIDE Have a service to offer?
