Joes second cutting

Here we are approaching mid August and even


the hills are still green. While its normal to get
a second cutting of hay sometimes even a
third cutting on irrigated land, Joe Yeoman
was getting a second cutting along the ditches
of the Fort Peck Highway! It gets a little thin
in some spots, he said. Joe, who ranches out

along the Fort Peck Highway each year, so this
is a bit of a bonus. While his vintage Hesston
swather burns about 30 gallons of gasoline a
day, he also added that he was out cutting a
second time to save us taxpayers a little money.
Hows that for being a Good Joe?

Purring right along

Joe Yeoman keeps his 1967 Hesston purring like a


kitten, knowing that proper maintenance keeps him
from having to spend a hundred thousand bucks for
a new one. Whos ahead? he laughed. (And hes
got a 1972 model ready to go as well!) When driving

out to Fort Peck and checking out where he has


swathed, notice how steep some of those slopes are,
such as between the Buckhorn and the Gateway....
Oh, it dont bother me with the swather, he says,
the scarey part is with the tractor and baler.

Montana is the countrys third largest waterfowl producer

Good news for our feathered friends, namely ducks


The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) today
released its report on 2016 Trends in Duck Breeding
Populations, based on surveys conducted in May
and early June by FWS and the Canadian Wildlife
Service.
Overall duck numbers in the survey
area are statistically similar to last year and remain
steady. Total populations were estimated at 48.4
million breeding ducks in the traditional survey area,
which is 38 percent above the 1955-2015 long-term
average. Last years estimate was 49.5 million birds.
The projected mallard fall flight index is 13.5 million
birds, similar to the 2015 estimate of 13.8 million.
The main determining factor for duck breeding
success is wetland and upland habitat conditions in
the key breeding landscapes of the prairies and the
boreal forest. Conditions observed across the U.S.
and Canadian survey areas during the 2016 breeding
population survey were generally poorer than last
year. The total pond estimate for the U.S. and Canada
combined was 5.0 million, which is 21% below the
2015 estimate of 6.3 million but similar to the longterm average of 5.2 million.
In light of the dry conditions that were observed
across much of the northern breeding grounds
during the survey period, it is reassuring to see that
the breeding population counts were little changed
from last year, said DU Chief Scientist Scott Yaich.
But, with total pond counts similar to the long-term
average, and with hunting season and winter mortality
being a relatively small part of annual mortality, its
not surprising to see that populations largely held
steady.

Whats not reflected in the report is that there was
fairly significant improvement in habitat conditions
after the surveys were completed, said Yaich. In

some key production areas, heavy June and July rains


greatly improved wetland conditions. This could
benefit brood rearing and the success of late nesting
species, as well as give a boost to overall production
through re-nesting by early nesting species.
Watching the changing habitat over the spring
and summer this year underscores the importance of
two things: First, we must simply accept that habitat
and populations are going to vary over time. They
always have and they always will. Second, thats why
we need to keep a steady hand on the course of our
conservation efforts. Our job is to steadily make
deposits into the habitat bank account so that when
the precipitation and other conditions are right, the
ducks will do the job that they do so well, which is to
produce more ducks and provide us all a nice return
on our investments.
The spring surveys provide the scientific basis for
many management programs across the continent,
including hunting regulations. Individual states set
their hunting seasons within a federal framework of
season length, bag limits and dates. Hunters should
check the rules in their states for final dates and bag
limits.
Montana ranks third in duck production in the
lower 48 states. When the glaciers melted, they left
millions of natural depressionsthese are the prairie
potholes. Just fill these potholes with snowmelt and
rainfall, mix with Montana sunshine and the ducks
will come.
Ducks Unlimited of Montana has restored,
enhanced and protected 77,659 acres in the state. Most
of Montanas wildlife refuges, waterfowl production
areas and state wildlife management areas have felt the
helping hand of a DU project.

Seems the big talk of Fort Peck Reservoir is how the Chinook salmon bite
is right now. Thats about all the Captain can talk about on the Saturday
morning Outdoor Radio Show. And heres why. Making one final pass before
packing it up to go to the Fort Peck Suimmer Theatre on Sunday, Doreen
Pugh hooked into this one. It weighed a bit over 17 pounds to go with some
smaller ones for the day. Reports are that there are some chinooks out there
that are knocking on the door of 30 pounds and the prediction by many
including Doreens husband Dale that the state record is going to be
broken sooner or later before the salmon season is over, one of those great
big females full of eggs. And its a long-standing record since the early days
when chinook salmon were introduced into Fort Peck. It was nearly 25 years
ago on October 2nd, 1991 when Carl Niles reeled in a 31.13 pounder off the
face of the dam using a diamond king spoon.

WANTED: a great turnout for girls softball clinic


Former Florence High School girls fast pitch
softball head coach, Mike Otto Thill, has offered to
host a clinic at Sullivan Park for 3rd through 8th grade
girls on Saturday and Sunday, August 20-21st from
10:00 am noon and 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. both days.
Otto learned the basics of fast pitch softball in
what he refers to as the capitol of fast pitch, Havre. He
was born and raised here in Glasgow. His father was a
railroader and when Otto was 16 years old, the family
transferred to Havre.
While playing fast pitch softball, he wore the
number 00 on his jersey. Teammates began calling
him Double Ott and that was gradually shortened to
Otto. He didnt care for the name but soon that name
was associated with softball and he became Otto.
I knew if they asked for Mike Thill, it wasnt
important. If they asked for Otto it was important
because it was softball related, he said in an interview
with the Bitterroot Star back in 2006.
After graduation, Otto went to California to go
to college and visit. He ended up staying 27 years. He
continued his ball playing while in California, playing in
the Armature Softball Association. Through the course
of his playing career he played in five national ASA
tournaments. Through it all, he was always a pitcher.
The older pitchers didnt want a younger player
taking their jobs and according to Otto, they wouldnt
show a younger player anything or help them. He says
that is probably why he is so willing to help anybody
and everybody that pitches.
Ottos knowledge of the game is immense and he
teaches all phases of the game to everybody with a
desire to learn.
Otto moved back to Montana and to the Bitterroot
Valley in 1990. He would eventually build a girls fastpitch program from the ground up in what would
become a dynasty in Florence. In his 10 years as the
Head Coach for Florence High School, the softball
team brought home nine state trophies including five
state titles. Mike was also named Montana High School
Coach of the year four times. He retired from coaching
in 2006.
Now Otto would like to return a favor to Glasgow
where he enjoyed growing up as a kid.
Registration for the softball clinic will begin at 9:30
on Saturday, August 20th at Sullivan Park. The cost is
$20 per participant and check should be made out to
Mike Thill. Attendees shall RSVP to Stacey Johnson

Mike Otto Thill will be in Glasgow August 20-21 to


teach his vast wealth of knowledge of fast-pitch softball.

at 406-599-7154 by August Thursday, 18th in order to


get a head count.
Otto has graciously offered to donate the $20
registration cost back to the Glasgow Scotties High
School Fast Pitch Softball program.
Attendees are asked to bring a glove along with any
other softball gear they have. Otto will cover pitching,
hitting, base running, sliding, and throwing. He will
also spend extra time after each day to work with those
girls who are interested in pitching.
I am hoping that we get several girls to attend as
our softball program is a good one but it could be a
great one if we could get more younger girls interested,
said Stacey Johnson.
That said, its time for the 3rd-through-8th grade
girls to drag their mitts back out August 20th-21st.
