Hill County Conservation District Administrator Emma Korntheuer is looking for people to participate in a new pollinator program she is preparing. The program is meant to maximize plant survival and sprouting with minimal landowner input. “Our main program is intended for people looking to add native wildflowers to smaller spaces like backyard flower beds, but we had a lot of residents this year looking to fill larger spaces,” Korntheuer said. Next spring, they are distributing free bulk seed to residents interested in add...

I guess the old adage is true: “You can’t fight city hall.” At least not in Havre. The council held an ordinance meeting on June 20th to discuss a backyard hens. Except they didn’t. They apparently just counted heads. One supporter for it and six against it. That was good enough for them to not vote. How convenient. What wasn’t counted were the hundreds of Havre residents who signed a petition of support for the initiative. That list was provided to each of the city councilors weeks ago and they know that those are actual Ha...

We decided to go to our favorite coffee shop, Molletes. When they came to pick me up, Mic...
History may not repeat itself, but it rhymes. Patterns and cycles seem to repeat over time. Almost without exception, perceived threats to the racial, ethnic, or religious majority have triggered populist reactions to change.

Over time, all have found themselves in the crosshairs of the “defenders” of tradition. Most people may think they hold a live-and-let live att...

You know, Lord, Fourth of July celebration is coming right up, may we pause a moment to consider what it means to be an American.

Out our way, we do look a "gift horse in the mouth," especially when it comes to disease. A few years ago, the bison in Yellowstone National Park had become too numerous for the amount of grazing and the federal government offered many of the herd to various Native reservations. For the plains tribes like the Assiniboine, Gros Ventre, Cheyenne, Chippewa Cree, Crow and other Montana tribes, the offer was much appreciated for the bison was and remains a crucial part of their...
