Before readers forget the very numerous Borg family, we want to get a little more instructive mileage from them and then do some comparing. In the last article we devoted considerable space to Sylvia Borg Kjos, whose father was Leif. One of Leif's brothers was Karsten, born in Norway in 1905 and brought to America with the family in 1911. With so many children to support on a single homestead, it is no surprise that he was farmed out, literally, for four years. He was shipped to Spicer,...

May is National Skin Cancer Awareness Month and a busy time for gardening and other outdoor activities. Garden-ing provides many benefits but like any outdoor activity it’s important to protect yourself from the sun’s damaging rays.

And even though it’s the most common form of cancer in the U.S. it is also one of the most preventable. Help reduce this percentage and keep yourself and others safe with a bit...
No, no, it's not bad type-setting or that your reporters had a fit; we shall explain. The initial phrase of Norway's National Song is, "Ja, vi elsker dette landet," which means, "Yes, we love this nation," and they imply Norway, of course. We modified the Norwegian a little to give, "Yes, they loved this nation," and we mean the United States, because this article and the next one, concern Norwegian immigrants that grew to love their new country, the USA. "The Prairie Princess," a striking...

Even though Sand Springs, is a dot on the map 70 some odd miles from Roundup, Montanans know that Sand Springs is still our community. I had been planning to do a little story on some tiny country schools, one of which is the Sand Springs school, when the Wuhan virus shut our schools down. After the third week I was itching for a drive, and I decided to visit the little Country Store RV Park and Post Office at Sand Springs. As I drove up there wasn't a car in sight. Sky, land and highway stretch...

Growing on a deck or balcony is a great way to bring the garden to your backdoor. You can attract butterflies and hummingbirds into easy view and grow edibles within close reach when cooking. For some, it may be the only available space to garden. Make the most of every square foot by growing vertically. You’ll not only save space but also create privacy, make harvesting vegetables easier and create a garden that’s at eye level as you enjoy your outdoor space. Train pole beans, like the Seychelles, up a decorative trellis, teepee of bamboo sta...

Behavioral research at Rutgers University found the gift of flowers had immediate and long-term benefits no matter the age of the study participants. Participants demonstrated true or excited smiles as well as delight and gratitude when they received flowers. They also reported feeling less depressed, an...
