The male, yearling bruin weighed 238 pounds and was in excellent shape, says Mike Madel, Fish, Wildlife and Parks bear management specialist.

The animal was tranquilized, fitted with an ear tag, microchip and radio collar and relocated west of Marias Pass on the Flathead National Forest.

A federal Wildlife Service trapper set a leg snare and a culvert trap Tuesday after the bear killed a sheep.

Authorities had been keeping tabs on the bear since it was spotted several days earlier on the Teton River north of Fort Benton. The Chouteau County sheriff’s office assisted FWP in the effort.

“Our philosophy in situations like this is to leave the bear alone until it gets into trouble,” says game warden Capt. Mike Martin. “After it killed the sheep we called in the federal trapper.”
In river miles, the bear walked at least 175 miles down the Teton from the Pine Butte Swamp, the closest grizzly population.

Fireworks are illegal on all Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks sites including fishing access sites, state parks, wildlife managment area’s and other sites.

State law says no one may set off fireworks on any FWP lands from April 1 until the first Saturday in September. In addition, other FWP properties, such as some state parks, are closed year round to fireworks.

Anyone using fireworks on FWP lands may be charged with a misdemeanor that can result in a fine up to $500.

The BLM anticipates the burn will occur sometime between July 6 and August 1. The exact timing will be determined by weather conditions (wind direction, wind speed, relative humidity and expected moisture) and staff availability.

This surface is owned by the Bureau of Reclamation, but managed by the BLM. The objective of this range management action is to reduce cheat grass and prickly pear cactus infestations and improve grazing conditions for livestock and wildlife.

The BLM has informed other area entities that deal with wildfire and numerous individuals of the controlled burn. “We anticipate some area residents will see the smoke created by this burn and we want to do our best to inform everyone of the potential and not create undue concern,” according to Rich Adams, BLM’ s Malta Assistant Field Manager.

If you have questions about this controlled burn please contact Rich Adams or B. J. Rhodes in the Malta Field Office at 654-5100.

Earlier this year the current Valley County Attorney Ken Oster announced that he would be retiring in mid-August.

The commissioners told Kltz/Klan that 2 of the 7 applicants are local attorneys and that they hope to start interviewing the candidates in the next 2 to 3 weeks.

They declined to name the 7 applicants for the position.

U.S. District Judge Sam Haddon, in Great Falls, also ordered Murphy to pay $17,325 in restitution.

Murphy was sentenced for stealing 13 dinosaur bones from central Montana's Hell Creek badlands in 2006. He pleaded guilty in April to theft of government property.

The 51-year-old self-taught paleontologist rose to fame on his discovery of the world's best-preserved fossil, Leonardo, in 2000.

Murphy was sentenced last month to 60 days in jail on a separate state count involving a stolen raptor fossil. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.)

Documented sage-grouse declines have worried naturalists and biologists for many years. Currently, about 27 million acres of sagebrush steppe capable of providing habitat for sage-grouse exists in Montana. A substantial amount of that sage-brush habitat is privately owned. The strategy identifies “core” habitat areas in the state giving those areas the highest priority. The plan identifies 12 primary issues that have potentially adverse effects on sage-grouse populations in Montana.

To develop the strategy, an NRCS Sage Grouse Work Group examined all available scientific research and consulted with many stakeholders, including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks; Bureau of Land Management; University of Montana; Montana State University; Montana Stockgrowers Association;, Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation; Intertribal Agricultural Council; The Nature Conservancy, and individual private landowners.

The Environmental Defense Fund has commended the NRCS strategy, calling it “a model example of how states can utilize farm bill programs in a focused, science-based way to benefit wildlife.” The NRCS strategy involves five steps:

Identify core areas where the largest benefit for sage-grouse conservation can be attained

Expand NRCS sage-grouse public education and outreach

Provide long-term protection through conservation easements of the best remaining habitat to prevent conversion to other uses

Improve the health and habitat values associated with sagebrush communities through management and structural improvements

Develop and implement a comprehensive monitoring plan to measure the effectiveness of the strategy

Meier told Kltz/Klan that a sport utility vehicle containing 7 people attempted to pass another vehicle and lost control and rolled and then caught fire.

Meier said that 3 of the occupants were hurt bad enough to be flow to Billings for further medical treatment.

The Montana Highway Patrol is investigating the accident and Sheriff Meier said it appears that the injured were from Roosevelt County.

In the background in this photo a part of the military history display is seen. To the right is a World War I nurse’s uniform which was worn by Louise LaFourniase when she served in France. To the left is the uniform of Angus Stuart who was serving in the Philippines when his group was captured by the Japanese during World War II. He was one of many who were forced to make the Bataan Death March. Many did not survive the march or the prison camp life they lived in. Angus Stuart was one of those who did. Another sampling of the real heroes you will find at the Pioneer Museum.

This is just a sample of what you can find in your Pioneer Museum which has an incredible number of artifacts. We invite you to visit and enjoy your heritage.

Sheriff Freedom Crawford says; “Predators like these and their actions will not be tolerated in Roosevelt County and we will continue to seek out and apprehend these types of individuals.”

Marks is currently being held on $50,000.00 bond and Oaks is being held on $25,000.00 bond. Marks and Oaks are from Lloyd, Montana which is South of Chinook.

The Heritage Wall Collections consists of 250 plus photo plaques at this time and it continues to grow. It is becoming a very valuable collection because of the history it is saving. We want to thank the Valley County Museum Board and the Valley County Historical Society for allowing us expanded space at the museum in which to display the collection. Eventually when a large addition is put onto the main building there will be a designated area in which to bring the collection all together in one place. Until that time it will continue to be displayed in both the Valley County Courthouse and the Valley County Pioneer Museum. We encourage you to consider adding plaques to cover your own family history. This is also a place to honor the charter members of the Valley County Historical Society. To date we have plaques for seven of them. We are fortunate to have two living charter members from the original Historical Society. We hope eventually that the families of the rest will consider adding the others. Without them we would not have the beautiful museum that we have today.

Besides collecting valuable history the Heritage Wall Collection serves as a major fund raiser which has made possible an addition to the museum, a retrofit, new roof, security system to mention a few projects. As we continue on with other projects it will be one of the main fund raisers that will make those projects possible. If you have any questions regarding the collection and how to become part of it please contact Doris Franzen, Box 975, Glasgow, MT 59230 or call 1-406-228-2082 or any other member of Friends Of The Pioneer Museum that you wish. We also thank you for your support in the past and look forward to working with you in the future.

More than 70 percent of lightning fatalities occur between June and August, says John Jensenius, the National Weather Service lightning expert who tracks and evaluates lightning deaths for the agency.

Annually lightning strikes more than 400 people in the United States. About 60 of those die, and many more are left with devastating and permanent disabilities. The National Weather Service studies lightning fatalities in order to know where to best target its lightning education efforts. For example, men are struck far more often than women, sustaining about 85 percent of lightning deaths. And men under 40 account for 60 percent of all lightning fatalities.

“At the start of summer when people are getting ready to enjoy outdoor activities, we want to remind them that lightning is very dangerous,” says Jensenius. “Lightning can kill – so remember - when thunder roars, go indoors.”

New for its 2009 campaign, NOAA has produced a dramatic video public service announcement by Ohio college student Ellen Bryan. Bryan’s sister, Christina, was seriously injured in a lightning strike nine years ago. A Miss America hopeful, Ellen Bryan has made lightning safety her personal pageant platform. View the video public service announcement on the National Weather Service Lightning Safety Web site.

NOAA also has published a new brochure, Lightning Safety for You and Your Family, which provides basic facts about lightning and information on how to stay safe during potentially deadly thunderstorms. It provides information for people participating in organized outdoor activities and identifies actions to take if someone is struck by lightning. The brochure is available on the lightning safety Web site.

To avoid being struck by lightning, the National Weather Service recommends that you:

* Get into a fully enclosed building or hardtop vehicle at the first rumble of thunder;
* Stay indoors for 30 minutes after the last thunder clap;
* Monitor the weather forecast when you’re planning to be outdoors;
* Have a plan for getting to safety in case a thunderstorm moves in;
* Do not use a corded phone during a thunderstorm unless it’s an emergency; cell phones are safe to use;
* Keep away from plumbing, electrical equipment and wiring during a thunderstorm.

NOAA understands and predicts changes in the Earth's environment, from the depths of the ocean to the surface of the sun, and conserves and manages our coastal and marine resources.

We are planning to do a reprint of that book in the spring. It will be exactly as the first printing. It will be in a 3-ring binder like before. This gives you the option of adding more favorite recipes of your own. You can also use sheet protectors to keep the pages clean when you are using the book. It is easy to slip out the page you want to work with so it is handy. It will contain the same features: the brands, the hat symbol to indicate old time family favorites, the humor and good advice. We have even had some gentlemen enjoy it just because of the history associated with it and the familiar names. Of course many of them are good cooks too.

We will be offering this book on a Pre-Sale for $30. In other words if you pay up front you can save. After the printing the book will sell for $35. By doing a Pre-Sale we can also get a better idea of how many books to print. All indications are that the demand is there but books are very expensive to produce so we do not want to have too many left over and above what has been requested. So to be sure you have yours reserved please order ahead. You can do this by sending a check to Friends Of The Pioneer Museum, Box 975, Glasgow, MT 59230-0975. You can also contact Doris Franzen (406-228-2082) or contact Sue Henderson (406-229-2782). You may also stop in at the Pioneer Museum and place your order with the staff there. The Museum is open Monday through Saturday from 8:30 A.M. until 5:00 P.M.

The application deadline for those interested in being appointed to the position is June 26th.

The advertisement states that the salary for the position is 85% of the the district judge salary. The District Judge for Valley County is set to make $106,870 for the fiscal year starting July 1, 2009.

Oster was first elected to the office in 1994 and will be retiring midway through his 4th term as Valley County Attorney.

The attorney is appointed to the position by the Valley County Commissioners will have to run for election in 2010.

In addition to game damage hunts, those who register will also be eligible for special management season hunts. Special management seasons are called for in response to concentrations of big game due to seasonal migrations, extreme weather conditions, restrictive public hunting on adjacent or nearby properties, and other factors.

Hunts could take place anytime from Aug. 15 through Feb.15, 2010. Officials stress however, that game-damage hunts are only offered when needed and the need for such hunts may or may not develop. A final game damage roster, randomly generated from all the online registrations, will be posted by Aug. 1. FWP will contact hunters on the rosters if hunting opportunities arise.

Prospective hunters must register for the hunt rosters online at http://www.fwp.mt.gov. Beginning June 15, a link to register will be available on the FWP Web site home page. The Internet-based registration can be completed on personal computers, at most public libraries, and at any FWP office.

To register, hunters will need their ALS number. They will be prompted to enter a preferred hunting district for potential deer, elk, and antelope game damage hunts. Prospective hunters may choose to participate in all three species lists. Hunters are urged to print the confirmation page after completing the registration process.

The effort to create hunter rosters is specifically intended to decrease game damage response time and to streamline the game damage process.

Managed Haying on CRP is not authorized until the application has been made to FSA and approved.

If you have any questions please call Britney at the Valley County FSA Office at 228-4321.

GREAT FALLS, Mont. (AP) - A 54-year-old Wolf Point man, accused of stabbing another man to death during an argument, has pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter.

Harold Dupree appeared Thursday in federal court in Great Falls to enter his plea in the death of 35-year-old Eric Welch. Dupree faces up to 15 years in prison and a $250,000 fine when he is sentenced on Sept. 18.

The public safety director for the Fort Peck Tribes, Jose Figueroa, said Dupree and Welch were involved in an argument in an alley on the west side of Wolf Point shortly before midnight on June 21 of last year. Figueroa said Welch died from a single stab wound to the chest.

In March, Dupree pleaded not guilty to a charge of second-degree murder. He pleaded guilty to the lesser charge in a plea agreement with federal prosecutors.

Thibault noted that athletes need to be held to a higher standard because they are representing the school system in the public eye. He also told the board that he’s not out to bust anyone for drug use but he personally felt that a random drug testing program would be a deterrent to drug use.

He said that he had spoken with 9 of the 11 head coaches in the school system and of the 9 he had talked to, 8 supported the idea of random drug testing.

Several schools across Montana have drug testing programs including locally, Wolf Point, Harlem and Poplar. Thibault said that Columbus recently shut down their drug testing after there were no positive tests in the last 3 years. Anaconda will start a random drug testing program this coming school year.

The Glasgow School Board made no decision on the idea of random drug testing but agreed to continue the discussion. The Coaches/Sports Committee will discuss the idea and the idea will also be brought up again at the July school board meeting.

Valley County is currently soliciting bids for an architect to design a 24 bed detention center which would replace the current county jail in the basement of the courthouse.

Estimated cost of the detention center is $2.5 million and the commissioner’s plan on using $201,000 in federal stimulus money to pay for the design of the jail.

Valley County has been looking for the past 6 years at replacing the current 16 bed jail which does not meet federal or state jail standards.

The commissioners stressed that they will not be asking the taxpayers to pay for the detention center with an increase in taxes. Money has been set aside over the past several years which could be used to pay for the detention center.

The commissioners told Kltz/Klan that it’s possible that ground breaking could occur in the spring of 2010.

Glasgow Police Chief Bruce Barstad told Kltz/Klan that lat Monday evening or early Tuesday morning the two juveniles allegedly broke into the school and caused substantial vandalism and allegedly stole several items from the school.

The GPD investigated the crime scene and recovered evidence which led them to a residence outside of the city of Glasgow where they recovered some of the items taken from the school.

The two juveniles were arrested and charged with Felony Burglary, Felony Criminal Mischief and Theft. Barstad told Kltz/Klan that when a suspect is charged with Felony Criminal Mischief there are damages over $1000.

The juveniles made an appearance in front of Justice of the Peace Linda Hartsock on Tuesday afternoon.

Barstad said the investigation is continuing by the Glasgow Police Department.

Funding for the 2009 grants came from three sources, explains Board Treasurer Maggan Walstad of Opheim. The VCCF endowment earnings accounted for half, while earnings from the Magnus Swanson Fund contributed just over a third and the remaining grant dollars came from the Montana Community Foundation in recognition of VCCF Endowment increases during the past year.

VCCF is the community’s savings account. Earnings from the permanent endowment help to improve the quality of life for everyone in Valley County. For more information on the endowment, contact Board Chairman Gary Wageman of Glasgow.

Please come and bring your friends and relatives to not only enjoy the program but to visit the Pioneer Museum and all of its wonderful displays. Friends Of The Museum will be serving refreshments throughout the afternoon and would enjoy an opportunity to visit with you

The Phillips County Sheriff's Office says a dive team from Billings used an underwater camera at the north end of Nelson Reservoir and found 58-year-old James Root shortly after noon on Friday.

Root's body was close to where he disappeared Sunday while swimming to retrieve his boat, which drifted loose from its mooring.

The apparent drowning at Nelson Reservoir was reported at 7:30 p.m. Sunday. The sheriff's department says someone called 911 to report that James Root had tried to swim out to his boat as it drifted away from shore and did not return.

Phillips County officials say divers and searchers in boats and aircraft have been unable to locate Root. (Copyright 2009 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.)

Richard Holen was sentenced last week by District Judge David Cybulski. Holen was convicted of eight counts of felony theft on April 8 - one count for each rancher he took cattle from.

Cybulski, who sentenced Holen to 40 years in prison with 36 suspended, also fined Holen $48,000, to be paid after the restitution is paid for the 39 head of cattle he took. Prosecutors say he took the cattle and tampered with the brands on the animals.

Roosevelt County Attorney Ryan Rusche, who prosecuted the case, said he couldn't find any comparable cases of cattle rustling in the state since the early 1900s. (Copyright 2009 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.)

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said lakes Oahe, Garrison and Fort Peck all gained from a foot to 3 1/2 feet of water in May. Water levels on the three have risen by 5 1/2 to 10 feet in the past two months.

The corps expects runoff this year to be 25 percent above normal, and says reservoir storage in the Missouri River system is likely to peak at 56.5 million acre-feet this month. That would be the most water in the reservoir system since 2000.
