There is never a bad time to donate to the Malta Food Bank, but sometimes are better than others. From now until the end of November, the Town Pump Charitable Foundation will match dollar for dollar – up to $1,000 – donations collected and all funds raised in Malta will stay in Malta. “It worked very well last year and we reached our goal of $1,000,” said Malta Food Bank Volunteer Coordinator June Cornell. People who would like to make donations to the Malta Food Bank can do so by mailing...
In mid-September, nearly 200 Malta Elementary students attended Ag Education Day at Hinman Angus Ranch. Following the field trip, the first through fifth grade students were tasked with sharing their experience either through essays or drawing or both. First State Bank President Bob Galt recently judged all the entries from Ag Education Day and the following students were picked as winners – each awarded their choice of basketball, volleyball or football from Hardware Hank.

Winter never ends soon enough. It’s hard to tell when spring even starts, and summer seems to get longer every year, but autumn always passes too quickly. It’s just the middle of October and most of the leaves are already gone. Snow dusts the higher peaks and the prairie is the color of khaki. There’s a nip in the air most mornings. For those anglers who haven’t yet put their boats in storage or hung up their waders, fishing is excellent. The crowds are gone. The lakes and rivers are as clear a...
I’m a diehard Pittsburgh Steelers fan, I have been for around 15 years. That’s why I have been nothing but thrilled with life the past few weeks. Big Ben (Roethlisberger) took a pretty troubling knee injury, but Mike Vick and Le’Veon (Bell) got a clutch win last Monday in San Diego, and the debut of Landry Jones was more than impressive with the win today against Arizona. Jones threw the ball 12 times for 168 yards and two touchdowns, completing 75-percent of his passes. Those numbers with a sidelined Ben Roethlisberger have the entire “Terr...
I must’ve walked under a ladder or something weird because the week before last was pretty rough. My week of misfortune started during a game in which Malta defeated Shelby in the rainiest football game Malta has seen in some time. I went to Mustang field that day to accomplish one thing. That thing was to do my job. I definitely did that, taking tons of pictures and I even stayed out to interview players and the coach after the game. Mission Complete, right? It was complete but little did I k...
Work was being done getting new windows, wallboard, insulation and painting in Wink and Terri Cole’s house just in time for them to come home to stay this coming week.

Practicing our Play We practiced our Christmas play. Linden was the imp, and Andi and I were the angles. Linden hasn't quite learned all his lines, yet. [Imagine that, first read through, and he doesn't have it memorized. Maybe the second time he sees it...] A doll will probably be baby Jesus. Mommy or Deanna will be Mary. We practiced the part that comes after our piano solo, because we had done the first part the Monday before....

I’d like to discuss one of my pet peeves today. This column will not include the bugbears that are horror movies, circuses or long-winded speakers (but someday it might.) No, the pet peeve I want to talk about is when I am told I can’t do something but given no reason why. If you have watched a single stitch of any sports broadcast in the last six months then you have seen advertisements for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) websites such as FanDuel and DraftKings. Going 10-minutes during any televised sporting event without seeing one of these com...
