On Friday morning at Albertsons in Malta, Ann Sautter readied herself for a once in a lifetime shopping spree as she was recently named the Malta Chamber of Commerce Two Minutes to Win It winner. Sautter's mother, Jean Niebur, entered her daughter in the contest and was surprised when her name was called. "I only entered the contest one time at Valley Drug and she got picked," Niebur said. Sautter, a regular shopper at the Malta Albertsons, said she knew the layout of the store very well and her...

A century just isn’t what it used to be. The building where I write this column turns 100 years old this year. So does my house. I remember visiting relatives who lived in a century-old home when I was a kid. The place seemed ancient. After all, it had been built before the start of the Civil War. Now I live in a house built in 1915, and while it does seem a little dated, it’s only 37 years older than me. I have a canoe older than that bought with paper route money when I was 16. A 17-foot alu...
Dear Editor, Small town Dodson. A Mayor takes an oath of office to uphold the law… In Dodson, the Mayor drives a golf cart with no license or lights. In Dodson, the Mayor admits to illegally spraying other people’s property. The Head Officials say “they know who is breaking the law.” They should know because they admitted it. Only in Dodson!

Dear Editor, As bison ranchers for 23 years, we would like to comment on the APR’s proposal to tear out their interior fences and let bison graze all year long, apparently without grazing management of any kind. As we suspect you are aware, it is a myth that bison do not overgraze their habitat. They have preferred plants, just like any species, and they will hit the same plants over and over, until those plants are severely damaged or gone. Let us give you a personal example, when we first started raising bison, we adopted the “free-ranging” i...
Dear Editor, I am writing this so no one else has to go through the heartache and pain we have gone through due to the administrators of the PC Home and Health. Thank you so much for your help. We were unable to respect and grant Nancy’s dying wish to be in Malta during her final days on earth. She thought highly of Malta and the medical community which we had many discussions and opposing views about. I wish she could have proved me wrong this time, and showed me you were compassionate and caring. Nancy generated a lot of money as a p...
In the coming week, lets say Thursday or Friday-ish, if you happen to see a vehicle or two driving through our fair county with a 4 on the license plate, don't fear, hippies aren't invading. That car with that license plate is most likely my wife's parents -- my in-laws -- and they are making the almost seven hour trek to Malta later this week at the exact time as we depart for our trip to SoCal. They are coming to town to help us out while we are gone and will be taking care of Stella the Spoiled Chihuahua and Steve, the Hairy Jerk (formerly...

It’s not easy bringing the fine arts to people’s attention in such a physically active community. Our sports teams are among the finest in the state of Montana. Their recognition is well deserved and competition is fierce.

And the music programs and outside performing arts are key ingredients for entertainment and learning in our community. But I found out something sad the other day. In talking to...
