In southeastern Montana, wildlife managers are propos- ing the creation of an elk B (antlerless) license that would be valid region -wide, exclud- ing the Custer National Forest and Charles M. Russell Na- tional Wildlife Refuge. There is also a proposal to increase the number of 799-20 elk per- mits from 175-225. The 799- 20 permit is an either -sex elk permit valid in all of Hunting Districts 702,704 and 705. For mule deer in southeast- ern Montana, FWP is propos- ing returning to an either -sex season on General Deer li- censes, as well las reintroduc- ing a limited number of region -wide B licenses. Mule deer B tags were unavailable in Region 7 in 2014 and were only issued on a limited basis in a select few southeastern Montana hunting districts this year because of concerns about population numbers. A form for online comments as well as a detailed list of public metings and changes proposed throughout Montana are available online at http://fwp.mt.gov and follow the links to \Hunting\ and under \opportunity for public comment\ click on \2016-17 hunting season changes - pro- posed\. Written comments can be submitted to FWP Wildlife Division, Attn: Hunting Sea- son Proposals. PO Box 200701, Helena, MT 59620. Comments are due by 5 p.m. Jan. 22,2016. Our Towns Brief history of the German -Russ- ian homesteaders By Sherry Vogel The name Plevna means city of churches. This was a fitting name for the newly settled community which was being homesteaded by German -Russian immigrants. The term Ger- man -Russian speaks of the inhabitants' rich history and heritage. In 1760, Russia's Tsarina Catherine the Great, who herself was of German descent, encouraged German farmers and tradesmen to migrate to Russia around the fertile Black Sea. She believed that Russian peasants would benefit from German settlers bringing new ideas to this area. She offered these German settlers free land, freedom of religion and free- dom from military service. Thousands of Germans started a migration into Russia. They settled and started small towns where they continued their native life. The Black Sea area became the bread basket of the world as they prospered. The Russian peasants benefited from the German tradesmen who taught them their skills. Life went on in harmony for almost a cen- tury until the new Czar Nicholas I came to power. He revoked all special concessions which Catherine the Great had made to the German immigrants. This misfortunate rever- sal caused hardship on these settlements as high taxes were imposed and young men were inducted into the military for periods of five years. News came from across the seas that the United States offered freedom and free land. Around 1875, another exodus of thousands took place as German immigrants arrived in America. They originally settled in the states of Texas, Kansas and the Dakota Territory. These German immigrants became known as German -Russians. Those settling in central Dakota Territory put their agricultural skills to such productivity that in 1892 Eureka, South Dakota became the world's primary wheat market. These industrious Germans from Russia brought with them desired skills in various trades. The women, who had acquired cook- ing skills from other Europeans, became renown for being good cooks. In the first decade of the 1900s, many of the Germans from Russia moved into southeast- ern Montana, settling in the countryside of Plevna. They named their settlement Plevna which means \City of Churches\. Many peo- ple in this area are familiar with the wonderful strudels and kuchen which are traditional desserts of the German people. We have also enjoyed the homemade sausages which are served at the annual pancake and sausage sup- per each autumn in Plevna. Many may not be familiar with Swaria Maga, which is perhaps to the German people as is luiefish to the Nor- wegians. Swarta 11 , Iaga or I I eadcheese Boil one hog head until meat falls from the bones. In a separate kettle, boil the heart and liver. Remove the bones from the head and put the meat through a grinder, followed by the heart and liver. Mix thoroughly. Season with salt, pepper and sage. Return the meat to the liquid in which the head was cooked. Bring to a boil, thicken with cornmeal. When the mix- ture reaches the consistency of thick mush, pour into pans. Cool and cover. Refrigerate or store in a cool place. This is good served cold in sandwiches or fried like mush and eaten with hot pancakes. \Das schmeckt gut!\ Students take part in Online stock market game In an endeavor to incorpo- rate real -life math into the classroom, two of the Baker Junior High math classes par- ticipated in the online stock market game during fall se- mester. Baker Junior High en- tered five total teams and competed against high school teams across the state. The stock market game helps students build a fettlAmental understanding of investing while providing them with real world skills practice in math. English language arts, eco- nomics, social studies, and other subjects. One of the teams came in first place in the state and an- other team placed 12th out of 116 teams. The students re- ceived a cash reward for their hard work as well as statewide recognition on the website of the Montana Council on Eco- nomic Education. Members of the first place team are: William Rost. son of Jeremy and Tina Bost, Kintner Hint. son of Klint and Brenda Flint; and Kalee Herbst, daughter of James and Kim I ferbst.
