On All NEW Hay Equipment Broadcaster Press 3 December 20, 2016 www.broadcasteronline.com * Self-Prop and Receives ‘Smart Gov. DaugaardPull Windrowers *On Crime’ Recommendations Round Balers - Twine/Net Wrap Dave Says Wife Wins Dear Dave, We just started following your plan, and we have $39,000 in debt. We make $55,000 a year, and two of our smaller debts — one car and a credit card — are both $7,500. The credit card has a higher interest rate, so my wife thinks we should pay it off first. I look at the car as a necessity, and for that reason I think we should pay it off first. Who’s right? Pat Dear Pat, When the rules of paying off debts Dave from smallest to largest don’t apply, I look at things this way: If you have two debts that are of equal amounts, I would attack the one with the larger interest rate first. In your case, that would be the credit card debt. I get what you’re saying about the car. You guys might be in a bind if something happened and you lost one car. But it’s also something you could work around if you had no other choice. So yeah, knock out the credit card first then move on to the car. Going this route will serve two purposes: First, it will save you some money. And second, I’ve got a feeling it will fire up your wife and get her on board with the plan even more than she already is. She’s taking this seriously if she’s eyeballing interest rates, Pat. So use this momentum to work together, and knock out that debt! — Dave RAMSEY IRA to Gold? Bad Idea Investing In Infrastructure Is An Investment In The Future By Sen. Mike Rounds In 2017, with a new president in office and a reinvigorated Congress eager to get to work, finding ways to help grow our economy will be a top priority in Washington. For the first time in nearly a decade, we will have an executive branch willing to work with us to reform the tax code and undo many of the burdensome regulations that are preventing job creators from expanding their businesses. Additionally, we will have a president in office who has committed to investing in infrastructure across America, another important tool that is critical to our economy. Infrastructure is defined as basic organizational structures that are needed for the operation of society. This includes roads, railways, electric grids, pipelines, water systems, bridges, ports and airports, among other things. There is an expectation among Americans that no matter where they are across the country, they can expect clean water when they turn on a faucet and safe roads and bridges when they travel from place to place. A strong infrastructure system is important for public safety, and it has many economic benefits as well: it helps us maintain international competitiveness, creates jobs in construction and manufacturing industries and helps us make sure we are at the forefront of cutting-edge technology. A vibrant infrastructure system also strengthens national security: because we depend so heavily on travel and electricity to go about our daily lives, a breach in one of these systems could have far-reaching effects. In fact, the * Large Square Balers Last week the Smart on Crime Workgroup delivered its report to Gov. Dennis Daugaard.

Marcia Benning and John Osburn, both of Rapid City, received Outstanding Contribution to Public Health Awards for significant contributions over the course of a career. A dedicated Pennington County community health nurse, Marcia goes above and beyond to serve clients, particularly when it comes to providing immunizations. She leads quality assurance activities for all nurses in the large office and is a valued teacher and mentor for both new and experienced nurses. John manages a large workload as assistant administrator for the office of health protection which licenses food service, campground and lodging establishments. He managed the successful implementation of a new electronic licensure and inspection system which included a new web portal for consumers to access scores and inspection reports. Eric Grimm, Pierre, received the Rising Star Award as a new employee making a significant contribution. As data manager for disease prevention, he has advanced the capabilities and efficiencies of the agency’s centralized, electronic disease surveillance system. Using advanced computational statistical software, he analyzes and mines complex datasets, creating hundreds of high-quality visual images that transform raw data into meaningful and actionable information. Excellence in the Workplace Awards for outstanding performance in the past year went to Ashley Klatt, Watertown, and Jessica Schreurs, Sioux Falls. A tuberculosis (TB) nurse consultant, Ashley managed a challenging multi-drug resistant case of TB, maintaining regular contact with the patient and the family for nine months.

Jessica is a 12-year correctional health veteran and has been the clinical supervisor at the main penitentiary since 2014.
