The Grygla Red Hatters welcome you to join their group. Before we go any further, let’s take a minute to inform you what “The Red Hat Soci- ety” really is. In 1997, a lady, Sue Coo- per, purchased an old red hat from a thrift shop. When a good friend of hers was nearing her 55th birthday, Cooper decided to give her an original gift. Inspired by the well-known Jenny Joseph poem, which be- ings “When I am an old woman I shall wear purple, with a red hat that doesn’t go, and doesn’t suit me.” Cooper wanted to en- courage her friend to grow old in a playful manner. She gave her friend the red hat and sug- gested she keep it as a remind- er to grow older playfully and on her own terms. This gift had an impact on many women the two friends encountered. Those women re- sponded by wearing their own red hats and entering a new women’s movement that em- braced a renewed outlook on life filled with fun and friend- ship! The Red Hat Society had been born…. Grygla’s own Red Hat chap- ter consists of approximately 15 members. Kandy Sundberg and Anne McCabe are current- ly sharing the title of “Presi- dent”. The group meets once a month at various locations. Someone plays hostess to the group, inviting the women to their home for an afternoon of lunch, visiting and fun activi- ties, or the group might ven- ture out of town for an after- noon away! The Red Hatters are invit- ing new members to join and welcome friends of any age! (Women 55 and older are asked to wear red; women 55 and un- der are asked to wear pink.) The Charger’s football season will kick off a little early this year with the first game being held on Saturday, August 22nd at 7pm. The team will host Cass Lake on the field in Grygla. Practice for grades 7-12 is underway and Charger’s fans are looking forward to an exciting season! Congratulations to Shannon and Denise Ostby of rural Grygla, 29670 State Hwy 89 NE, for being nominated and chosen for ‘Yard of the Week’! The Ostby’s yard is a se- cluded and serene getaway that looks picture perfect as one comes down the drive. It’s obvious a lot of attention and extra efforts have been made to the landscape around their beautiful country home. The Marshall County Sheriff’s Department stays visible and active around the county Even outside of the Sheriff’s Department, Jason Boman does his best job to represent! He entered and drove his car, painted similar to a cop car, into the Baja Racing event at the Marshall County Fair a few weeks ago! Sheriff Boman is the Vice President of the Marshall County Fair Board; he also serves on the North Valley Health Center Board. This week, the Grygla Eagle had a chance to catch up with the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department, which is head- quartered in Warren, and serves the entire county. Jason Boman, Marshall County Sheriff, pictured left, and Jon Tinnes, Marshall County Chief Deputy, pictured right, were happy to answer some questions and give the Eagle an update and an inside look into the department. Jason Boman was elected to a four-year term as Marshall County Sheriff in November of 2014, and started his new du- ties as sheriff on January 6th, which is when Jon Tinnes was appointed to Chief Deputy, the position Boman previously held. Boman has been with the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department since 1993 and Tinnes has been employed with them since 1996. Currently, there are 22 em- ployees working for the Mar- shall County Sheriff’s Depart- ment. With a new title, comes new duties. As Sheriff, Jason Boman now oversees the entire department, making sure each duty and responsibility is tak- en care of. He also is in charge of the entire departmental budget. As Chief Deputy, Jon Tinnes does all of the civil pro- cesses that come in, including child abuse cases and register- ing sex offenders. With those duties, he is also the training coordinator for the department and provides court room secu- rity, while working alongside Sheriff Boman. Never having a typical day at work, Boman and Tinnes say their daily job schedules are always different. A typical day might involve calls coming in to report a dog at large to something more complex, like responding to a murder scene. The department stays extreme- ly busy, and in the last seven months, they have sent nine people to prison. Also playing a pro-active role in our community, and rep- resenting the Marshall County Sheriff’s Deparment, Boman and Tinnes, among others, at- tend as many events as they can around the county, includ- ing many local festivals in area towns. The Sheriff’s Depart- ment also frequents numerous schools around the county. One of the biggest programs the department provides for area schools is the DARE program, a program where kids pledge against the use of drugs and also learn all of the negative side effects. When looking ahead to- wards the future, some of the departmental goals include reducing the drug problems around Marshall County. When asked if he could say one thing to the people in this area, Boman responded, “If you see something…call it in.” He noted that callers can remain anonymous, but they should always try to make that call. He also says, “We want to be someone that people aren’t afraid of.” Adding, “The most satisfying and rewarding part of this job is when you can help someone; it’s the feeling you get when you’ve done something really good.” For more information visit http://www.co.marshall.mn.us/ marshallcounty/departments/ sheriff.htm.

Step out of the demands of every day life and step into a world of laughter, fun and friendship! The Grygla Red Hatters welcome you to join their group.

Before we go any further, let’s take a minute to inform you what “The Red Hat Soci-ety” really is.

In 1997, a lady, Sue Coo-per, purchased an old red hat from a thrift shop. When a good friend of hers was nearing her 55th birthday, Cooper decided to give her an original gift. Inspired by the well-known Jenny Joseph poem, which be-ings “When I am an old woman I shall wear purple, with a red hat that doesn’t go, and doesn’t suit me.” Cooper wanted to en-courage her friend to grow old in a playful manner. She gave her friend the red hat and sug-gested she keep it as a remind-er to grow older playfully and on her own terms.

This gift had an impact on many women the two friends

encountered. Those women re-sponded by wearing their own red hats and entering a new women’s movement that em-braced a renewed outlook on life filled with fun and friend-ship!

The Red Hat Society had been born….

Grygla’s own Red Hat chap-ter consists of approximately 15 members. Kandy Sundberg and Anne McCabe are current-ly sharing the title of “Presi-dent”. The group meets once a month at various locations. Someone plays hostess to the group, inviting the women to their home for an afternoon of lunch, visiting and fun activi-ties, or the group might ven-ture out of town for an after-noon away!

The Red Hatters are invit-ing new members to join and welcome friends of any age! (Women 55 and older are asked to wear red; women 55 and un-der are asked to wear pink.)

The Charger’s football season will kick off a little early this year with the first game being held on Saturday, August 22nd at 7pm. The team will host Cass Lake on the field in Grygla. Practice for grades 7-12 is underway and Charger’s fans are looking forward to an exciting season!

The Marshall County Sheriff’s Department stays visible and active around the county

Even outside of the Sheriff’s Department, Jason Boman does his best job to represent!

Sheriff Boman is the Vice President of the Marshall County Fair Board; he also serves on the North Valley Health Center Board.

Preventing Bloat in LivestockThe growing conditions this

summer have provided many livestock producers with lush pastures. In many cases, alfalfa and clover regrowth has been unusually abundant following initial grazing or hay harvest. This is a special concern when hay regrowth is grazed because of the possibility of bloat.

Pasture bloat is primarily a problem of cattle that graze pastures where legumes make up greater than 50% of the to-tal forage. Legumes with the highest likelihood to cause bloat include white clover and alfalfa while red clover is mod-erately likely to cause bloat. Legumes that don’t cause bloat are birdsfoot trefoil, kura clo-ver and crownvetch.

Bloat is treatable if caught it time, but since it is often dis-covered too late, prevention is the key. Here are nine tips for preventing bloat.

Offer poloxalene to cattle for at least three days before they’re turned out on pasture that has a potential to cause bloat. It’s best to use polox-alene in a daily feed to ensure uniform intake, but availability is a problem. That’s why molas-ses/salt-based blocks (Bloat-guard®) are the most common-ly used form of the preventive product. When using these blocks, remove all other sourc-es of salt and mineral to ensure that the poloxalene-containing blocks are consumed.

Fill cattle with dry hay be-fore turnout onto legume pas-ture.

Turn cattle out after midday when pasture is dry (no dew or excess moisture).

Turn cattle out and leave them. Don’t pull them in and out daily. Otherwise, cattle will “learn” that they will be moved to the legume pasture and may wait to eat until moved. While the popular perception is that the ideal way to introduce cat-

tle to high-legume pasture is to turn them out for an increas-ing amount of time each day, research doesn’t support the practice.

Continue using poloxalene while grazing legumes, and lo-cate the product near water for increased intake.

Inter-seed pure legume pastures with an appropriate grass to dilute the legume’s bloat-causing effect. Add le-gumes that don’t cause bloat or are less likely to cause bloat to pastures.

Don’t clip a grass-legume pasture and then immediately turn cattle out onto it. This is especially true with a pasture high in white clover; once the taller grass is removed, the short, highly palatable white clover, which has a high poten-tial to cause bloat, can then be easily grazed by cattle.

Observe cattle frequently the first few days on new le-gume pasture.

Some cattle have increased susceptibility to pasture bloat and these animals are candi-dates for culling. Eliminate their genetics from the herd.

Pasture bloat is a mostly preventable problem of graz-ing cattle. If you follow these recommendations, the chance of having an animal bloat is greatly reduced, but there’s still a possibility you could see a case.

As most seasoned cattle producers know, frothy bloat is a true emergency; having an “emergency kit” on hand could well pay dividends. Talk to your veterinarian to see if it would be wise to have a few supplies on hand, and be sure to get proper training on their use to give you the best chance of dealing with bloat in pasture cattle.

Having to pick a career is obviously a hard choice with all the pressure and thought that you could do this for the rest of your life. I feel like a decision to go to college should be well thought out so that you know for sure this is the career choice for you. Many people probably go into college with a thought out plan of becoming a teacher but later realize that it isn’t their calling, and in the middle of the year, switch their gener-als to become a doctor. College is very expensive and most students can’t afford to go to school longer than four years.

Having to pick a career should involve a lot of research and not be just a decision be-cause the job sounds fun. Be-fore you pick your career, I would definitely thoroughly research about the field you’re going into, such as the benefits and the limitations of the ca-reer. It could just be our school, but I feel like we aren’t being educated of the possible jobs out there.

When I think of careers, I think of the general job choices; doctors, school teacher and a scientist are all jobs that come to mind when I think of my fu-ture. I don’t think of other jobs such as a mortician, a geologist or a mathematician. Although those fields don’t often have much interest, someone has to do it, and if we opened our eyes to professions like that, the job field could be a whole lot big-ger.

It is important that schools

educate you on the different jobs. Although most schools do try and educate you, they nev-er give you the full list. They don’t open you up to the other options. Even at career fairs there is a lot of the same stuff; you see a lot of careers in the construction business, or doc-tors and electricians, but where are the other options?

Obviously no one has a life plan to sit in a cubicle every day from nine to five or answer phones for a living. With the internet, a whole new page is opened and you can search for a job that seems to fit what you want. It’s a great way to research things and reduces hours of looking over an ency-clopedia. With college becoming more and more expensive over the years, it should be pushing people to do more research and find a job that seems to fit your fancy.

A cool job I’ve always been interested in is working for Google. It might be a little un-realistic but it doesn’t mean I can’t pursue it. Although I can never make up my mind be-cause I also want to be a doctor and an author. Maybe one day I will make up my mind and de-cide before I go to college, but for now, I have no idea what I’m going to do. If you read my column a few weeks ago you, would know my future plans and what I want to do in life….I won’t get into it now; maybe another week I can tell you about how I have changed my mind completely!

Its game 7 of the NBA finals and a man makes his way to his seat at center court. He sits down and notices that the seat next to him is empty. He leans over and asks his neighbor if someone is sitting there. He responds, “No, the seat’s emp-ty.” The first man exclaims, “What?!? Who in their right mind would have a seat like this for the NBA finals and not

use it?” The neighbor responds, “Well, the seat is mine, but my wife passed away and this is the first NBA finals we haven’t been together.” The first man responds,” I’m sorry to hear that. Wasn’t there anyone else, a friend or relative, that could’ve taken that seat?” The neighbor responds, “No, they’re all at the funeral.”

This is a favorite summer-time salad because it doesn’t require the oven and it makes a huge batch – perfect for a summer party! This dish is very versatile – you can add or subtract any veggies you want and it still turns out simply de-licious each time.

Check out this cool dog bed idea if you’re on a budget or just looking for a new project! Take an old tire and wash it off so it is ready to paint. Take a color of your liking, then paint the tire and add old blankets/pillows to the center. The result? A fun and creative new dog bed.
