This Day In History: Guelph News By Rose Sell Since the gym was ‘officially full’, plans to extend the Guelph Community Rummage Sale seemed logical. Not only was the facility open for business on June 12-13, more items are being held put out for SATURDAY, JUNE 20, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. You don’t wanna miss any of this. Pastor Rick and Carol Wadholm drove Audrey Enger to church on the 7th. It was good to have Cobus DeWet back. He had been quarantined for the required weeks after flying from South Africa just before all travel was restricted. Each Sunday has brought no more than ten people to the Fullerton Union Church, so guidelines are easily met for pre- venting the spread of Covid-19. Thursday, the 11th, Rod and Rose drove to Fargo for busi- ness. They were able to have lunch with Abby Lindgren, as well. On the way home they went through Fergus Falls to have supper with the rest of the Lindgrens. Nice to be out and about again. The storm that hit us Sunday night may have brought much needed rain, but the tornado threat, strong winds, and close lightning bolts were not condu- cive to sound sleep. After more rain showers Monday evening through Tuesday, Audrey's rain gauge showed more than two inches total. Chad Poppen called Monday morning to make sure that all was well. Roger Lubiens showed up at the door a few hours later, with some fresh fruit, and returned the next day for a haircut. On Wednesday the 10th, Mike Johnson picked up supplies for Audrey. The Thorpe crew is pursuing the baseball season now which has led them to Oakes, Edgeley and LaMoure. The whole gang headed to Moorhead for Zade’s Big Bikers Party on May 31. Everyone brought their bicycles, including Ross and Dana on their tandem bike; Grampa with his bike; and Mimi, disguised as the Unicorn for the parade. Robyn’s birthday was also celebrated, which was the day before. THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: “Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change.” - Wayne Dyer Prairie Fare: Let's have a toast to milk during National Dairy Month By Julie Garden-Robinson, NDSU Extension Food & Nutrition Specialist "You have a lot of food in here," our son commented the other day. He was investigating the con- tents of our refrigerator. "Eat whatever you like," I remarked. He is all grown up, but he still checks what's in the fridge when he drops by our home. When our son was a teen- ager, he'd open our refrigerator every hour, or so it seemed. I'd wonder if he was expecting some miraculous change. "There's nothing to eat," he'd say sometimes. He'd pour a glass of milk and look for cook- ies in the cupboard. Usually the food in our refrig- erator or nearby cupboard involved some sort of prepara- tion. He has become less picky with the passage of time. Do you have certain foods that usually are in your refrig- erator? We have some standbys: milk, cheese, eggs, yogurt, fruit juice, various condiments, meat thawing for dinner, and usually some kind of leftovers. During June, which is National Dairy Month, explore your milk, cheese and yogurt choices at the grocery store. If you drink milk, do you have a certain type you prefer? Most of the time, we can choose from whole, 2%, 1% or fat-free (skim). When I was young, we always had whole milk. That means it has about 3.25% fat by weight. We later had 2% milk as my family changed with the times. Now I usually buy skim milk for my family. Our daughters enjoy whole milk with chocolate syrup as a treat now and then. You might see "organic milk" as a choice at the grocery store. This designation means the cows were raised accord- ing to U.S. Department of Agriculture farming practices. No distinct nutritional differenc- es exist between organic and traditional milk. At 8 grams per cup, any type of dairy milk is a notable source of protein to build and main- tain our muscles. You might see "ultra-filtered" milk in some stores. This typically has higher protein levels. Nutritionally, milk with a high- er fat percentage has more calories. A cup of whole milk has 149 calories, while a cup of skim milk has 83 calories, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data. All types of milk have about the same amount of calcium and are fortified with vitamins D and A. Fortified means the nutrients are added for nutri- tional reasons. Vitamin D and calcium work together to pro- mote strong bones and teeth, among their many functions. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin, eyes and the functioning of our immune system. Milk provides many addi- tional minerals and vitamins naturally, including phospho- rus, potassium, riboflavin and vitamin B-12. Some people do not or cannot drink milk for various reasons. People who follow a vegan diet avoid animal products of all types. "Lacto-vegetarians" con- sume dairy products. "Lacto" refers to lactose, the sugar in milk. Other people have allergies to the protein in milk and can experience severe reactions. All nutrition labels are required to list any allergens right below the ingredient statement on labels. Those with lactose intoler- ance experience gastric upset because their body lacks the enzyme lactase needed to digest the natural milk sugar lactose. Researchers have found that some people with lactose intolerance may be able to consume smaller amounts of milk with meals. They could try yogurt or hard cheese. Further, lactose-free milk is available, as are lactase enzyme tablets. You may have noted various plant-based milklike beverages in the grocery store. How do almond milk, coconut milk, rice milk and soy milk compare with dairy milk? On average, these beverages lack many of the naturally occurring nutritional components of milk. They also often are more expensive. However, the plant-based beverages provide options for people following vegan diets. Many plant-based beverages have been fortified with cal- cium, potassium, riboflavin and vitamin B-12. Read and com- pare the labels, but also look at the ingredient statement as you make your beverage choices. I haven't had enough cal- cium today, so I will enjoy a glass of ice-cold milk from my refrigerator as I wrap up this column. This recipe, courtesy of the Midwest Dairy Council, features a lot of common ingre- dients in my refrigerator and, perhaps, yours.

This Day In History:

Guelph NewsBy Rose Sell

Since the gym was ‘officially full’, plans to extend the Guelph Community Rummage Sale seemed logical. Not only was the facility open for business on June 12-13, more items are being held put out for SATURDAY, JUNE 20, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. You don’t wanna miss any of this.

Pastor Rick and Carol Wadholm drove Audrey Enger to church on the 7th. It was good to have Cobus DeWet back. He had been quarantined for the required weeks after flying from South Africa just before all travel was restricted. Each Sunday has brought no more than ten people to the Fullerton Union Church, so guidelines are easily met for pre-venting the spread of Covid-19.

Thursday, the 11th, Rod and Rose drove to Fargo for busi-ness. They were able to have lunch with Abby Lindgren, as well. On the way home they went through Fergus Falls to have supper with the rest of the Lindgrens. Nice to be out and about again.

The storm that hit us Sunday night may have brought much needed rain, but the tornado

threat, strong winds, and close lightning bolts were not condu-cive to sound sleep. After more rain showers Monday evening through Tuesday, Audrey's rain gauge showed more than two inches total. Chad Poppen called Monday morning to make sure that all was well. Roger Lubiens showed up at the door a few hours later, with some fresh fruit, and returned the next day for a haircut. On Wednesday the 10th, Mike Johnson picked up supplies for Audrey.

The Thorpe crew is pursuing the baseball season now which has led them to Oakes, Edgeley and LaMoure. The whole gang headed to Moorhead for Zade’s Big Bikers Party on May 31. Everyone brought their bicycles, including Ross and Dana on their tandem bike; Grampa with his bike; and Mimi, disguised as the Unicorn for the parade. Robyn’s birthday was also celebrated, which was the day before.

Prairie Fare: Let's have a toast to milk during National Dairy Month By Julie Garden-Robinson, NDSU Extension Food & Nutrition Specialist

"You have a lot of food in here," our son commented the other day.

He was investigating the con-tents of our refrigerator.

"Eat whatever you like," I remarked.

He is all grown up, but he still checks what's in the fridge when he drops by our home.

When our son was a teen-ager, he'd open our refrigerator every hour, or so it seemed. I'd wonder if he was expecting some miraculous change.

"There's nothing to eat," he'd say sometimes. He'd pour a glass of milk and look for cook-ies in the cupboard.

Usually the food in our refrig-erator or nearby cupboard involved some sort of prepara-tion.

He has become less picky with the passage of time.

Do you have certain foods that usually are in your refrig-erator?

We have some standbys: milk, cheese, eggs, yogurt, fruit juice, various condiments, meat thawing for dinner, and usually some kind of leftovers.

During June, which is National Dairy Month, explore your milk, cheese and yogurt choices at the grocery store.

If you drink milk, do you have a certain type you prefer? Most of the time, we can choose from whole, 2%, 1% or fat-free (skim).

When I was young, we always

had whole milk. That means it has about 3.25% fat by weight. We later had 2% milk as my family changed with the times. Now I usually buy skim milk for my family.

Our daughters enjoy whole milk with chocolate syrup as a treat now and then.

You might see "organic milk" as a choice at the grocery store. This designation means the cows were raised accord-ing to U.S. Department of Agriculture farming practices. No distinct nutritional differenc-es exist between organic and traditional milk.

At 8 grams per cup, any type of dairy milk is a notable source of protein to build and main-tain our muscles. You might see "ultra-filtered" milk in some stores. This typically has higher protein levels.

Nutritionally, milk with a high-er fat percentage has more calories. A cup of whole milk has 149 calories, while a cup of skim milk has 83 calories, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data.

All types of milk have about the same amount of calcium and are fortified with vitamins D and A. Fortified means the nutrients are added for nutri-tional reasons. Vitamin D and calcium work together to pro-mote strong bones and teeth, among their many functions. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin, eyes and the functioning

of our immune system.Milk provides many addi-

tional minerals and vitamins naturally, including phospho-rus, potassium, riboflavin and vitamin B-12.

Some people do not or cannot drink milk for various reasons. People who follow a vegan diet avoid animal products of all types. "Lacto-vegetarians" con-sume dairy products. "Lacto" refers to lactose, the sugar in milk.

Other people have allergies to the protein in milk and can experience severe reactions. All nutrition labels are required to list any allergens right below the ingredient statement on labels.

Those with lactose intoler-ance experience gastric upset because their body lacks the enzyme lactase needed to digest the natural milk sugar lactose. Researchers have found that some people with lactose intolerance may be able to consume smaller amounts of milk with meals. They could try yogurt or hard cheese.

Further, lactose-free milk is available, as are lactase enzyme tablets.

You may have noted various plant-based milklike beverages in the grocery store. How do almond milk, coconut milk, rice milk and soy milk compare with dairy milk? On average, these beverages lack many of the naturally occurring nutritional components of milk. They also often are more expensive.

However, the plant-based beverages provide options for people following vegan diets.

Many plant-based beverages have been fortified with cal-cium, potassium, riboflavin and vitamin B-12. Read and com-pare the labels, but also look at the ingredient statement as you make your beverage choices.

I haven't had enough cal-cium today, so I will enjoy a glass of ice-cold milk from my refrigerator as I wrap up this

column. This recipe, courtesy of the Midwest Dairy Council, features a lot of common ingre-dients in my refrigerator and, perhaps, yours.

Prairie Fare: Immune System, Put On Your Boxing Gloves

By Julie Garden-Robinson, NDSU Extension Food & Nutrition SpecialistTuesday, the 29th, Jeannie Thorpe picked up Karen to join the Elves for noon lunch.

There is always delicious food. Those that were doing and helping with projects were Madella Scheffert, Maurice Schwarting and Drew Courtney. They found a project for Karen also. She put tags on items ready for the next Guelph Spring Fling.

Our Off the Shuelph SPRING FLING is fast approaching. Be on the look out for more information as the winter goes away! AND.....have you been checking your garage, attic or closets for any unused items you would like to donate to our Spring Rummage Sale?? All this activity helps keep our Community Center running and in good condition. Thanks!!

Wednesday evening Grandma Karen had a wonderful surprise, when Ashley Waite of Fargo came to the door. She also spent some time in Oakes visiting friends. Thursday, she took Grandma to Oakes for some errands and also baked birthday cupcakes for her brother, Adam, for his up coming birthday. She returned to Fargo that evening.

Chad and Eliyah Poppen brought Audrey Enger some drinking water. Then stayed for a visit over hot chocolate and apple juice with cookies on Friday, the 26th. Then on Saturday, Judy Jacobson and Audrey shopped in Ellendale before having lunch at the Fireside. They were happy to find yarn on sale at Mahler's Variety for some knitting projects each had in mind.

The Maleys decided take a weekend to visit the farm kitties as well as Grandpa & Grandma. Jason, Robyn, Zoey & Zade arrived at the Thorpe farm on Friday, January 26th, from Moorhead and were greeted by “Meatnight” and another kitty. These 2 were allowed in the house for the weekend. Cousins also came and went when they weren’t riding horses or going to bowling tournaments. The kitties were quite shocked when the door was barred on Monday morning, however.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: “When you're different, sometimes you don't see the millions of people who accept you for what you are. All you notice is the person who doesn't.” ― Jodi Picoult

You have several ways to help your immune system resist colds and flu.

Recently, I was on six flights during the course of five days, with about 250 people per flight. Every flight had several people who were sneezing or coughing.

So, I was exposed to at least 1,500 people all nestled in a pressurized tube breathing the same recycled air.

Now I wait to see if my immune system was able to fight germs efficiently during this cold and flu season.

On one flight, my neighbor was coughing and sneezing on me, in between snoring loudly. You can hold your breath only so long. I wedged myself up to the plane’s window. I had no exit, and I never have used a para-chute, anyway.

I felt as though I was on one of those TV commercia ls surrounded by green fog emit-ted by sick people. Most of us have heard the reports about this year’s flu season that has result-ed in numerous deaths.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, people with the flu can spread the virus droplets 6 feet away through coughing and sneezing. The droplets can land in our noses or mouths, or be inhaled into our lungs.

You can spread illness a day before you have symptoms and about a week after you become sick. Sometimes people are infected and they don’t have the

flu symptoms.Now that I am home, I am

waiting to see if my immune system was wearing its boxing gloves and fighting germs. I had a flu shot and now it was being tested.

Having a cold is different from having the flu. People with the flu may have a fever (often with chills), cough, sore throat, runny nose, body aches, headache and fatigue. Children with the flu also might have vomiting and diarrhea.

For some people, especially

adults 65 and older, pregnant women and children under the age of 5, getting the flu can be life-threatening. People with dia-betes, kidney disorders, lung dis-eases, asthma and several other chronic diseases also are at high risk for serious consequences. Pneumonia, bronchitis and sinus or ear infections might follow a bout with the flu.

No one enjoys feeling under the weather, so what can you do to help prevent colds and the flu? Try these tips to help your immune system resist colds and flu:

Have a flu shot every year.

Be sure to wash your hands regularly. Lather up for at least 20 seconds. Consider using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer when a sink is not nearby. The sanitizer should contain at least 60 percent alcohol. You can use a hand sanitizer if hand-washing facilities are not readily avail-able, but be sure to use enough hand sanitizer and rub your hands until the alcohol evaporates.

Stay home when you are sick to help prevent others from being exposed. Create a “sick room” in your house, and be sure to

practice good hygiene, and wash dishware/glasses with hot, soapy water.

Be sure to cover your coughs and sneezes. Use a tissue to “catch your sneeze” or you can sneeze or cough into your elbow instead of your hands. Toss the tissue so others do not have to dispose of it for you, and then wash your hands as a precaution.

Avoid close contact with peo-ple who are ill.

Stay home for at least 24 hours after a fever is gone.

Stay well-nourished every day with a varied, nutritious diet.

Get regular physical activity. Aim for 30 minutes per day on most days of the week.

Get enough sleep.Check out the immune sys-

Try some chicken soup dur-

ing January, which is National Soup Month. Some research has shown that warm, steaming broth may help clear congestion, and a mix of protein and vegetables in chicken soup may help your body repair itself.

This homemade chicken soup recipe is courtesy of the “Spend Smart Eat Smart” program from Iowa State University Extension. According to its analysis, a serv-ing costs just 60 cents and is lower in sodium than commer-cial canned soups.

Our Favorite Chicken Noodle Soup

2 chicken leg quarters6 c. water1/2 c. chopped celery (about

1 rib)1/2 c. chopped onion2 c. sliced carrots (about 4

carrots)1 Tbsp. dried parsley1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning1 tsp. ground black pepper1/2 tsp. salt2 c. (2 1/2 ounces) whole-grain

wide egg noodlesPlace chicken and water in a

stock pot. Bring water to a sim-mer (slow boil). Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until chicken reaches 165 F. Clean and chop vegeta-bles while chicken is cooking. Take the chicken out of water with tongs or fork, then cool in refrigerator about five or 10 min-utes. Add vegetables and parsley, Italian seasoning, pepper and salt to the pot of hot water. Remove bones and skin from chicken and discard when it is cool enough to handle. Cut meat into bite-sized pieces and add to the pot of hot water. Bring to a boil. Add noo-dles when water is boiling. Cook according to package directions.

Makes six servings. Each serv-ing has 280 calories, 4.5 grams (g) fat, 27 g protein, 32 g carbo-hydrate, 5 g fiber and 350 mil-ligrams sodium.

NDSU 2 U Extension Connection: Think Spring! Understanding Seed Catalogs.

Breana Kiser, Agriculture and Natural Resource Agent

Mother Nature has been giving us a treat this winter with these warm days of 40° weather. Makes us think of spring and for gardeners there is another sign that spring is close, SEED CATALOGS. I have received mine already!

First, don’t just dive into the cata-logs and start order-ing. Instead, take a walk around your gardens. This is easy at the moment with almost no snow and warmer days. Go outside and look at your annual beds, your vegeta-ble garden, and place where you want to put containers or hang-ing baskets. Make notes on how much room you have and what kinds of things will work well in each location. Consider where you have sun and shade.

Once done go and start a garden diary. If you don’t have a garden diary, it’s a great idea to keep track of what you have done year to year. When we get freezing cold temperatures back, your garden diary is a nice way to start plan-ning and thinking of warmer time. If you don’t have a diary, start by collecting your year old order forms and half empty seed packets and make a list of what worked or didn’t work, which varieties you want to plant again, and which ones you will never use again. Make a list of things you want to try for the first time. It’s your gar-den, have fun and experiment each year with something new!

Now we get to check out those catalogs. The colorful covers entice gardeners to buy glorious blooms and ripe vegetables. Gardening expectations are skewed by the pretty photos. A good motto to think about is “don’t judge a plant by its photo.” The photos are from when the plants are at their best stage, gardeners need to toler-ate the ugly phase before enjoying the beauty of nature.

Be sure to look for the catalogs that not only have beautiful pic-tures but give you lots of informa-tion. A great catalog will tell you all of the important things you need to know, but you may have to look up the variety in several cata-logs to find out everything. Learn how to interpret garden jargon. For those experienced gardeners this could be easy for you but for hobbyist or beginners it can be overwhelming trying to under-stand and figure out what to order.

Open Pollinated (OP) or Species: This is the variety that will come true from seed. If you want to save seed from your plants from year to year, look for these.

Hybrid, F1 Hybrid, or X in the name: This is a cross between two pure-bred parents. Seeds from these will not come true the sec-ond year. Note that all hybrid seeds are F1, or first generation hybrids. Some plants may be F2 or second generation. These can only be propagated vegetatively.

Height: How tall the plant will be. This is important for planning beds. You want short plants in front, tall ones in back.

Days to bloom or bloom season: How long it will take a plant to flower or what month you can expect flowers. Note that this is based on the seed company test gardens. You may get different

results, if you live in a different climate. Still, this allows you to compare different varieties.

Days to harvest: This is the same thing for food crops, and bears the same warning. For plants that are started indoors, this is the number of days from when the plants are set out into the garden. Our last frost date is normally around Memorial Day, consider this when looking at days.

Planting Zones: Perennials need to be hardy enough to survive winter in the USDA Zone 3 or 4.

Disease Resistance: The term "disease resistant" is relatively meaningless if they don't tell you what disease they mean. Look for specifics, like VFN for tomatoes, which means resistant to verticil-lium and fusarium wilts and nem-atodes. Good catalogs will explain their disease abbreviations.

Start Indoors: These are seeds that need to be started under lights, or in a greenhouse before the last frost date. Think about how much seed starting space you have before buying lots of these.

Direct Sow: These are seeds that can go straight into the ground. Check for the recommended planting date.

Determinate/Indeterminate: Describe tomato plants. Determinate plants grow to a cer-tain size, fruit all at once, and stop growing. Indeterminate plants are more vining and continue to grow and fruit until frost.

Number of Seeds: How many seeds are you getting? Some cata-logs will even tell you how much area or how many feet of row a packet will plant.

Light Requirements: Does the plant need sun? Will it tolerate part shade, or does it need shade?

Special Cultural Requirements: Some varieties need high or low soil pH. Some prefer dry soils, some like it damp. Some tall plants are fine on their own, oth-ers need staking. Decide if you can handle these special requests before ordering.

Scientific Name: This is really important for flowers and herbs. With all those cutesy names out there, it's sometimes hard to tell what the plant actually is. Good catalogs give the scientific name, which will help if you want to look the plant up in a reference book or on the web.

Finally watch out for shipping charges. Sometimes it works out to consolidate your orders with a few others or even better a joint order with your friends.

So enjoy those catalogs, have fun, plan the garden and imagine the best of the best. Before too long it will be time to go outside and get your hands dirty. Happy planning!
