  • Some of Carter County's greats

    Alvin Cordell|Updated Feb 13, 2020

    Since I am not as familiar with the great athletes in all of Carter County, I will focus on the great athletes that were born or raised in the Tie Creek area of the county. In the early years, most every community had a baseball team. For several decades a somewhat organized league of baseball was played. Lute Waterland was a pitcher that played mostly for the Capitol team, I believe. The Waterland family lived near Sheep Mountain. My dad talked about Lute as being the top pitcher of those days. He could put a lot of mustard...

  • Mayor's Notes

    Vicki Fix, Mayor|Updated Feb 13, 2020

    Happy New Year! After realizing that the last two years have flown by, I thought I might reflect on what is happening in your Town Council. In January we welcomed Jim Mackay to the council. He has been appointed to the streets and roads committee and has some ideas for improvements. He will also serve on the Land Planning Board. The council continues to work on the ordinances and how they fit in our government today and our needs for the future. We have begun advertising for...

In the meantime, we agree with Alvin Cordell that this will be a fun exercise for all who partake. The answers will be published in next week's paper. 1) This man owned an implement...

  • Conversations with God

    Updated Feb 13, 2020

    Hello God, it’s me, Mara: You know, Lord, sometimes friends share interesting things that they’ve found on the ‘net’; take for instance, a penny. Who’d have thought that there was a day to celebrate a Lost Penny, which is the 12th of February. And who among us has not lost a penny or two – let alone found a penny somewhere, even in the grocery store parking lot. That was a special time as the ‘box boy’ was totally amazed when asked to pry it out of the frozen piece of ice. Did he ever smile when he heard: “See a penny – let i...

  • Cooking in the West

    Susan Metcalf|Updated Feb 12, 2020

    I share the copy machine at work with the Sweet Grass County Extension Agent, Marc King, so one day I found an interesting email mixed in with my pile of papers off the machine. It was a bulletin from MSU about a biomarker study of the effects of calving operations on osteoarthritis. Even though it wasn't my mail, I decided to read it to see what it was all about. Long story short, you can sign up to have your biomarkers for osteoarthritis checked before and during calving season during an on the ranch visit that tests your...
