Petrified forest

We’re been fortunate to receive more moisture this winter than some seasons in the past. It’s always useful, however, to keep in mind water needs and ways to conserve – both to keep money in your wallet and to save one of our most precious resources. How to balance growing plants that contribute to the attractiveness of your own personal landscape, design a garden that provides food and shelter for bees and birds, but also conserve water at the same time? One option is to choose drought-tolerant plants. You might even consider changing out some of your planting spaces normally saved for thirsty annuals and instead plant a few drought-tolerant perennials this spring. Richters, a fa-vorite seed and plant resource, based in Canada, annually chooses an “Herb of the Year.” This year, that herb (any plant that can be used flavoring, medicine, eating, or even per-fumes) is agastache, a rather long word for hyssop. Hyssops are wonderful in that most of them are also native to our local area. According to Richters, hyssops are very hardy, not often prone to pest or disease, thrive well in sandy soils, and are a favorite of bees. One gorgeous hyssop is the New Mexico Giant Hyssop, also called rose mint, which grows to a height of 18” – 24” and has been used over the centuries for health and ceremonial purposes. It’s a lovely plant with rose-pink flowers that grown on spiked columns, and the plant should return and increase in size year to year. Bonus: butterflies love these too.

RVAR Pet of the Week:Osito is a male 6 month choc-olate brown with a little white. This young man loves everyone. He knows a dog door, is learning to walk on the leash and knows howto sit. He is a very cool kid. Visit him at the Round Valley Animal Rescue shelter Tuesday-

The idea for Arbor Day in the United States originated in Nebraska City, Nebraska. Julius Sterling Morton moved to Nebraska Territory from Detroit and missed all the trees. As a lover of nature, and a journalist he used Nebraska’s first newspaper as a forum to spread agricultural information. A visit to Nebraska today wouldn’t disclose the state was once a treeless plain, yet it was the lack of trees there that led to the founding of Arbor Day in the 1800s. In 1872, the State Board of Agriculture accepted a resolution by J. Sterling Morton “to set aside one day to plant trees, both forest and fruit.” The Board declared April 10 Arbor Day and offered prizes to the counties and individuals that properly planted the largest number of trees on that day. More than one million trees were planted in Nebraska on the first Arbor Day. Today, Arbor Day is celebrated in all fifty states. Most holidays cele-brate something that has already happened and is worth remembering like the day some-one was born or a religious holiday celebrating a past event. Arbor Day reflects a hope for the future. The simple act of planting a tree represents a belief that the tree will grow and, some day, provide wood products, wildlife habitat, erosion control, shelter from the wind and sun, beauty, and inspiration for ourselves and our children. Arizona celebrates Arbor Day the last Friday in April. This year, April 26. Go plant a tree!

A Brief Look at Modern Track and Field

Recent news stories have highlighted the ongoing disparity between what colleges earn based on the performance of their amateur student athletes and the fact that the athletes themselves are barred by law from earning any monies based on these performances. Fairness and equity aside, it is the case that until fairly recently, all professional (paid) athletes were barred from any amateur (unpaid) competi-tions, including the Olympics. Now spectators routinely expect to see top athletes compet-ing in the Olympics and professional runners participate in the Boston Marathon and other famous races.

According to the website Athletic Scholarships (found at https://www.athleticscholarships.net/history-of-track-and-field.htm), “[A]s track and field developed as a modern sport, a major issue for all athletes was their status as amateurs. For many years track and field was considered a purely amateur sport and athletes could not accept training money or cash prizes.

If charged with professionalism, athletes could be banned from competition for life. In 1913, American Jim Thorpe was stripped of his 1912 Olympic victories in the decathlon and pen-tathlon and banned from further competition after it was learned he had played semipro-fessional baseball. (In 1982, the International Olympic Committee [IOC] posthumously restored both Thorpe’s amateur status and his two Olympic medals.)”

...And the debate continues to evolve today.

Rudolph Loren Hale, 88, passed away Wednesday, March 27, 2019 in Eagar. He was the second of five children born to Samuel Loren Hale and Ethel Norton Hale, on December 31, 1930.

Rudy grew up in the Eagar area until his early teens. The family then moved to Mesa due to his father’s health. He attended Alma School until his sophomore year and then went to work at the Roosevelt Dairy and Schnepf Farms to help his family financially.

In 1949 there was a hard freeze in the valley, so Rudy decided to join the Army. He attended basic training at Ft. Ord in California. He then was sent to Japan in the Occupational Forces. When the

Korean War started, he went to Korea and later returned to the states and went back to work for the Schnepf’s again. In 1952 he married Marilyn Feezer Lund in Reserve, New Mexico. Together they moved back to Eagar to settle down and start their family.

Rudy worked at Whiting Brothers, Southwest Forest Industries, Stone Container and the Round Valley Schools. After retir-ing, Rudy spent lots of time fishing and hiking with grandkids. He was well known for his love of dancing and traveling and served in the Apache County Sheriff’s Posse for many years.

Rudy is survived by his son, Michael Scot (Pam) Hale, Alpine; daughters, Karley Jo Young, Gooding, Idaho; Christie (Mark) Phillips, Prescott; Sylvia (Rosco) Hooper, Farmington, New Mexico; Elizabeth (Dwayne) Walker, Eagar; Donna Stock, Show Low; brothers, Archie Hale, Thad Hale, sister, Irene Nelson, 19 grandchildren and 47 great grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents and sister, Sylvia Sanders.

Funeral Services were held Saturday, March 30, 2019 at 2:00 p.m. at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Eagar Stake Center. Interment followed at the Eagar Cemetery.

Congratulations to Jane Finch for finding the hidden Elk in last week’s paper and winning a t-shirt.
