Honeybees are the only insects that produce food for humans - food that never spoils. This factoid, among others - honey is the only food that includes all the substances needed to sustain life - is commonly cited by beekeepers. Beekeepers, large and small, are a passionate bunch. Clay Vincent, who has had bees for about four years, is one such ardent Havre-area beekeeper. Vincent is the city sanitarian and, admittedly, a former advocate of a city ordinance to prohibit people...

The Montana State University-Northern Lights might have not known who their 2017 starting quarterback was going to be before Friday morning's live scrimmage at the MSU-Northern practice fields. But one thing Northern knows for sure is, the offense can score, whoever is running it. The Northern offense scored four touchdowns and senior Tommy Langley booted a pair of long field goals as MSU-N ended two weeks of fall camp Friday, and went into game week against Rocky Mountain...

The Hill County Sheriff’s Office is still looking for whomever destroyed thousands of dollars of property with a tractor-loader earlier in the month four miles north of Inverness. The Sheriff’s Office received a call Aug. 9 from a woman who reported vandalism. Someone had used the front loader of a tractor to smash onto the hood and windshield of a pickup truck and tip over a wooden wagon, and they rammed it into a farm building. Undersheriff Stan Martin said his office is still assessing the amount of damage in dollars cau...

With the heat, the Chautauqua just ending, harvest still in full swing and the upcoming Labor Day weekend, there really wasn’t much in The Havre Plaindealer’s Aug. 25, 1917, issue. Wheat crops were paying well, but warnings were issued to safeguard next year’s crop due to the war effort. One of the things I love most about the Havre area is the incredible diversity of its citizens. People from all over the world joined American Indians whose ancestors had lived here for centuries to create the largest and greatest city on Mo...

I suppose it’s a form of oppositional defiance disorder, a compulsion to both stick it to The Man and not become a The Establishment that makes me shy away from things labeled as “your duty” and “your responsibility.” I see it in statements that include word combinations like “have to” and “need to.” Many times my mouth says “yes,” while my brain is saying “nope.” I’ll do what I agreed to do, while my brain is still at it with “Nopity. No.” It’s a backward and unhealthy w...

You know, Lord, many folks enjoy solving puzzles. Some individuals prefer simple ones to solve while others really enjoy a tough brainteaser. Some workplaces have a waiting room; it was interesting to glance around, observing for a moment, several folks reading papers, or some took a “Free Weekender” handout issue that included puzzles. Some with pen in hand, started to work. It was fun to glance up and notice. Later, a friend shared an interesting book puzzle. Now that one was a challenge, but we tried. Thankfully she had...
Out our way, life can be pretty basic and easy. Goliath and Babe have their own pasture to play in, and plenty of feed and water. On the other side of the fence is a horse farm where the horses have many more acres to run in - nicer facilities and even an outdoor training section. Yet though these other horses have more than Goliath, I have never seen Goliath envy them. He has what he needs and if others have more, well, bully for them. We call that horse sense, and it is a go...

The Northern C has undergone plenty of changes in recent seasons, with the conference expanding from nine teams a few years ago to 12. Yet, with all the new teams and all the changes, the one thing that doesn't seem to stop is the winning. The Northern C has been one of the toughest conferences in 8-Man football for years and with the addition of Choteau, Rocky Boy and Box Elder, it has the potential to be even better. With 12 teams and two sub-divisions, the conference is not...
There is nothing quite like the excitement that comes before a season-opening game, and for the Havre High football team, kickoff for tonight's game with Hardin, can't come soon enough. The Blue Ponies, who were 5-4 a season ago, aren't just starting a new season tonight, they are starting a new era, an era of Eastern A football. After years of playing in the Central A conference and opening the season against cross-state rival Whitefish, Havre is now a member of the 10-team...
At some point, no matter what the sport, you get sick of playing against your own team and after two weeks of practice, the Havre High volleyball team is ready to get on the court against an opponent. Thankfully for the Blue Ponies, they get to open their season today at the Eastern A Tip-Off Tournament in Glendive which will give them the chance to play multiple matches, as well as in a single-elimination tournament Saturday. Havre opens pool play today against Billings...
When there's a quarterback battle in fall camp, everyone knows it. It's the center of attention at any college football program. And it's certainly been one of the main attractions during the Montana State University-Northern Lights' fall camp, which ends with a preseason scrimmage today. Unlike most quarterback battles, though, where just one or two guys have a big lead, the Lights have had four players competing for the vacant starting job since spring ball began last...
