Dear Editor and Readers, Apparently, Mr. Heinlein isn't too impressed by the role Predators play on the elk and deer population. The only knowledge I have over him, with what they can do to the deer population, is what I can remember as a boy in the 1940s. There were no deer. My granddad shot the last deer he saw in South Valley in 1907, and the next deer that was seen on the old home place was 1948, the next year, either 1949 0r 1950 the FW&P opened a 3 day season, bucks only. By 1951-52 I got a chance to hunt myself. By 1955, a hunting...
Growing up in southern Indiana I always wished for a white Christmas but seldom saw one. Snow, when it did fall, never lasted long. Then I moved to Cooke City where it can snow every month of the year. By Christmastime there the snow is typically measured in feet. A white Christmas is a given. Not all of Montana, however, is so lucky come the holiday season. I remember a December in Bozeman that started out white, but was brown and bare by Christmas. That won’t be the case this year. More t...

Just when we thought that it could not get any worse and colder----it fooled us and it did both. All week the temps were down, but Saturday night it got much colder and dumped approximately another six or more inches of snow on us. Hard to tell as the wind blew and we had crazy drifts everywhere. Thank Heaven we have some special people around to thank as they take one more step toward heaven. Some of the kind people that were so good to me this week and earned my grateful thanks include Polly...
Winter! Snow! Wind! Cold! Winter! What else can we expect? Some people have decided to embrace the changes in the weather for each season.

One of the very best Christmas traditions in Phillips County is reading the letters to Santa in the Phillips County News, and we thought it might be fun to see what some of us “big kids” had to say to him when we were the ones leaving out the milk and cookies. In 1977, Malta first graders were asked what Christmas meant to them. Luke Brown noted that “it is good to give presents. Christmas is love,” while Rhonda Dalby wrote, “I love Jesus. I love God. Christmas means you can play with toys, I like Santa.” Saco first grader Marty Jensen noted, ...
