"The hunters were doing real well. Everybody's commenting on the number of birds they saw," said Roger Strom, Winner conservation officer. Strom thought excellent habitat and good rainfall contributed to the hunters' success.

"The vegetation has been just excellent. It made for good nesting success," he said. "Basically it hasn't had any real effect on hunters who had permission before the opening day," said Strom. "People who just went out assuming they had a place to hunt, they had problems. The land was shut off to them." But Strom also said that many years, some of the best hunting lands were posted anyway.

"Traditionally, we've always had a large number of people who posted the land," he explained. "They've wanted to save the best hunting for their friends and relatives the first couple of weeks. That's what I'm running into." Strom predicted that many more areas would open in Tripp County in the next 2-3 weeks. He lso said dry weather has affected the area in the past few weeks although weekend rain would take care of any fire dangers. Would the rain hurt hunting? "It does dampen the spirits of the hunters," he said.

"But as far as hunting, they should still do quite well because the birds are going to be a bit more concentrated. If someone is hunting with a dog, he's going to have better success." Hunting success hasn't been guaranteed for several years in the state which once boasted itself as the "pheasant capital of the world." Last year, South Dakota was rated fourth behind Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska in the total number of birds taken. In 1960, game officials estimated the pheasant population in South Dakota at 10 million. In 1975, the population was about 1.6 million. However, some 80,000 pheasants were released to the wild under the Pheasant Restoration Act and have helped repopulate the bird population.

That fiveyear program is tunded by the $5 stamp purchased by small game hunters each year. Some 475 land owners have donated about 14,500 acres of land for habitat restoration under the project. The re-population program is apparently paying off. Randy Palmer, owner of Chamberlain Lockers, said many of his customers are repeaters. "We had some people in that have hunted here for years, saying this is the best they have seen since the early 1950s," Palmer said.

"Most are coming in with their limits." One hunter, Delton Westhoss of Belton, said he accompanied two friends to South Dakota after they heard rumors of a good season. Clayton Bushman said he was in his 21st season of hunting near Chamberlain. "It's not as good as the 50s, but the closest thing since," he said. Pheasant season is bringing a different problem in the Winner area. Several Tripp County farmers threatened to post their land in retaliation for a one percent sales tax approved by Winner city officials.

It is the initial project in a proposed $400 million, four-year effort to clean up the plant. The filtering process will take three or four months. The water is now stored in shielded tanks inside the plant's auxiliary building, and remaining storage space is nearly depleted.

Another 600,000 gallons of severely contaminated water, flooding the basement of the plant's huge reactor containment building, will be treated in another system to be built next year. HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) -Decontamination of radioactive water, the first major step in the big cleanup project at Three Mile Island, will begin next week, plant officials said Friday. The decision to start treating 400,000 gallons of spilled water came after a federal appeals court in Philadelphia refused to block the decontamination plan, which has been opposed and delayed by environmentalists. "We're going to try to start Monday said Sandy Polon, spokesman for Metropolitan Edison operator of the damaged nuclear power plant.

The 400,000 gallons of water, described by Metropolitan Edison as Oct. 22 meter squares. Each grid is dug to a depth of 28-30 inches, following the contours of the soil. When evidence of a storage pit or other potentially artifact-rich spot is found, the archeologists dig deeper. Artifacts are being discovered in almost every hole.

But the work doesn't stop with the discoveries. "Actually, I suppose the fieldwork would comprise only 10 or 15 percent of the work that goes into a project," Hannus said. "Most work is done in the lab. Hannus began the dig a week ago, with Bob Alex from the state Ar-cheological Resource Center at Sturgis, and Larry Zimmerman, an SDSU faculty member. They hope to be done with the fieldwork by the end of October.

"We've been making pretty meaningful progress," said Hannus. Time is running out for the archeologists. The dig lies in the path of a $53,000 Lake Tetonkaha bank stabilization project, which has been in limbo since the first discovery of artifacts in the area two years ago. When the dig is complete, the stabilizat ion project will resume. When the dig is complete, the archeologists will return to their labs and typewriters, testing and recording their information, preserving a glimpse at the past.

BROOKINGS, S.D. AP) Progress is slow, painstaking. The ground is gently scraped, soil is removed, each tiny lump is scrutinized and screened. The location of the find and observations are noted. The process begins again.

The pace is maddening, but it's the only way to reconstruct a past civilization. "What we're really trying to do is piece together human activity from prehistoric times," archeologist Adrien Hannus explained at a site in Oakwood Lakes State near-Brookings. Hannus, an anthropology professor at South Dakota State University, is one of three archeologists spearheading a $37,500 dig. Assisted by SDSU students, and state and amateur archeologists, the experts are bringing the remains of an ancient Indian village from the soil. Hannus said the site is the first systematic dig of its type in eastern South Dakota.

The grant for the project was awarded to the state Department of Water Resources by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The dig lies on the edge of what is believed to have been a huge Indian village. Stone work, pottery, bits of animal bones and other artifacts have been discovered, tentatively dated between 0 and 700 A.D. Hannus said archeologists suspect they may be dealing with two cultures, one which existed between those dates, and one which sprang up later, roughly 1000-1200 A.D.

But no one knows for sure. Suspicions and findings suggest, but do not document, that the area was occupied centuries before the arrival of the Sioux Indians and the American pioneers. "It's really going to be an important site as far as informing just a whole host of questions that need to be answered," Hannus said. Tc find the answers, workers have plotted the 800-by-20-foot site into two- warren Satterlee, Conservation Engineer, Montana Dakota Utilities, Bismarck 14 A REE PRESS FUR A FREE PEQP1E "GfilG QJJS GGODD GO FDSiiniS) CStfS GSBflti einniDuDGl!

Energy conservation doesn't mean we must do without or sacrifice, it simply means using only what we really need for comfortable, normal living.

By wise utilization of energy in our homes, we can not only reduce energy waste, but cut overall costs as well. At MDU we've compiled a 44-page booklet called "Common Sense Conservation" that illustrates many ways to conserve energy through better insulation, caulking and weather stripping, thermostat and humidity control, proper care of heating and cooling equipment, and much, much more, it also shows you the things you can easily do yourself and those tasks best left to professionals.

ASPHALT: State specification HOT MIX ASPHALT available at quarry for under contract. COAL: For Home or LUMP OR CRUSHED Coal from Gillette's Fort Union Mine.

Government deregulation and nationwide inflation have shot the cost of energy upward, making conservation important to us all, and this booklet can help, it's available. at your local MDU office. High energy bills are something we all must learn to live with, but we don't have to live uncomfortably or do without modern conveniences if we just use a little common sense.
