Helena – The Montana Department of Revenue this week mailed 2018 livestock per capita fee bills to livestock owners. Payment is due by May 31. Livestock owners can pay online at ReportYourLivestock.mt.gov or by mail with a check. March 1 was the deadline for livestock owners to report livestock they owned as of February 1. If owners already paid their 2018 fees when they reported their livestock, they will not receive a bill. All Montanans benefit from programs funded by per capita fees. Livestock producers benefit from p...
Hello, I think for many people, May is the best month of the year. Grass is greening up, calving is winding down, farmers are starting to curry the ground, and the flies and mosquitoes haven’t really got going yet. So you can have a drink on the deck in the evening without battling bugs. One of the activities that takes place in ranch country is branding calves. Now for most ranchers, this is a community project. A couple weeks before branding people start arranging their schedule. You check with the neighbors to see when t...
In regards to the town’s proposal to remove and discard the pavement on Mormon Avenue, the replacement of water and sewer mains, and the resurfacing of the street with gravel, I am totally against the idea. I have a number of concerns in regard to this proposal. If the pavement is removed and replaced with gravel, I fear, as with the manner in which the other unpaved streets in this town are maintained, it will turn into another muddy, sloppy, boghole that will be next to impassable in wet weather and a rutted pothole f...

If you read this on Thursday, I’ll be making my least favorite trip to Billings. If I have my new wheelchair, the trip will be more comfortable. The trip is to have the treatment for jaw pain. That treatment had been scheduled originally for the first week in January, rescheduled for the first week in February, rescheduled again for the first week in April, and finally the second week in May. All that rescheduling was the result of snow. Are we safe now? All medical trips should be scheduled in spring and fall. This t...

Auxiliary members believe this will provide an opportunity for those attending the service to get together afterwards. Locals who plan on attending the picnic are asked to bring a salad or dessert to go along with the meat, condiments, and beverages that...
This winter, the Ekalaka area received 80.2 inches of snow. That’s the second highest total since the winter of 1999-2000. The highest total since that winter, and on record, came in 2009 when Ekalaka got 95.4”. However, some records prior to 1999 are missing pieces of data. The least amount of snow in that same time frame came just a few seasons ago, 2015-2016, when Ekalaka received only 22.5” of snow. National Weather Service records show that Albion received 47.7 inches of snow this February. Data at Albion for other...
On Tuesday, the senior class of Carter County High and their parents attended a banquet at the school. The banquet is organized and hosted each year by Sagebrush Service Club. Susan Tooke of the club explained that "the club took over from the Lions Club years ago," and that "they put it on to honor the senior class and bid them farewell as they leave the ranchero." On that notion, the club selected "Saddle Up For Success," as this year's senior banquet theme and chose Toby...
