800-888-9843 Wheat markets were mixed as prices traded in

a narrow range for the week. Record world production and higher than usual supplies of feed wheat are keeping a lid on futures prices while the cash market keeps its premiums for higher quality milling stocks. Corn was slightly higher as USDA reduced its yield outlook for this year’s crop. Even so, production is still set to be a record, and along with the large feed wheat stocks, prices are expected to stay relatively flat. Early harvest results are showing yields to be more variable and slightly lower than expected. Soybeans were weaker after the USDA increased yield estimates, adding to an already record production forecast. The cattle complex rebounded after an extended sell-off, even though the cash markets continued to show weakness. Two years of record high prices decimated beef demand for the average consumer, and it’s been very slow to recapture that market share, particularly since pork and poultry supplies are high and prices relatively low.

Estate Planning Tom was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business. When he found out he was going to inherit a fortune once his sickly father died, he decided he needed a wife with which to share his fortune. One evening at an investment meeting, he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her natural beauty took his breath away. “I may look like just an ordinary man,” he said to her, “but in just a few years, my father will die, and I’ll inherit 20 million dollars.” Impressed, the woman obtained his business card. Three days later, she became his stepmother. Women are so much better at estate planning than men.

Minimize Risk to Maximize Business Potential

Provided By: Brandon Nissen, Northwestern Mutual “Risky Business” takes on a new meaning to the entrepreneur who excitedly opens the doors, real or virtual, for business on that first day and awaits customers. As any entrepreneur knows, one can work hard, create a good product and maintain good business relationships -- do everything right -- and still some future events are beyond one’s control. A whole host of unforeseen possibilities can dash the dream, including the impact of a disability suffered by you or an employee. Planning for success requires taking a hard look at where the business is vulnerable. The likelihoods vary with age, but during your income producing years, you are nearly twice as likely to become disabled as you are to die before reaching age 65.1 A sound risk management plan’s purpose is to lessen the impact of a disability on your business. What are your options? There is coverage to protect human capital, and coverage to protect your ability to do business. The specific types of insurance you need will depend upon the type of business you have and how you conduct that business. But selecting the right coverage for your business should not be a “deal or no deal,” decision. The challenge is to find the right combination of policies that provide protection without duplicating coverage. Protecting Your Employees As your company grows and you add employees, it becomes increasingly important to protect your human capital. Quality employees are vital to the success of your business. Offering disability income insurance to protect your employees can also help you to create a competitive benefits package, which can enhance your recruiting and retention of employees. While most states require companies to carry workers’ compensation to cover the cost of work-related injuries, it’s important to keep in mind that less than 5% of long term disabilities are work related. The other 95% are not, meaning Workmen’s Compensation doesn’t cover them.2 In fact, the major causes of disability are diseases, such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes.3 Valuable disability income protection can be provided for employees through group disability income insurance, individual disability income insurance, or a combination of the two. Protecting Your Ability to Do Business Protecting your ability to earn an income and offering income protection to your employees certainly makes good business sense, but what happens when a loss directly impacts your bottom line? How will you protect your business and provide the money to keep your business running if you or another owner essential to maintaining the income becomes unable to work? There are specific types of insurance to consider: • Disability overhead insurance can provide needed cash to meet business expenses such as rent, payroll, benefits, utilities, taxes, maintenance costs and others. • Disability key person insurance can help your company weather the disability of a key employee. • Disability buyout insurance can help purchase the business interest of a totally disabled owner. Protection That Grows Along with Your Company With a lot of hard work and a little luck, small businesses do prosper and grow. The right risk management plan must also evolve to protect your business through all its phases of growth. Keep in mind that there are as many additional types of insurance coverage as there are unique business needs. That’s where an experienced financial professional can help you focus on your current and future business risks to select the right types and amounts of coverage to meet your ongoing needs. Partnering with a financial professional gives you the benefit of another expert keeping a watchful eye on the growth of your business. By lessening the effect of serious potential business problems with a sound risk management plan, you protect and enhance your potential for business success. 1.

Suicide Prevention Month - Part 2

by Tricia Kimmel

I learned just hours ago, while writing this article, of another family I know who has been hit with the evil devastation of suicide. The nightmare that descends upon those in a victim's "circle" of friends and family can be described in no better term than pure evil. When death by choice becomes the victor over precious life, we are suddenly called to ﬁght a battle with enduring ramiﬁcations. Mental health challenges, suicide, depression...all these things are still taboo in our culture. We have advanced our civilization to unimaginable heights, yet we can't talk about a problem that has plagued mankind since the dawn of time. The reason may be that it's easy to brush off such a large scale problem as someone else's problem...until it comes knocking on your own door in the middle of the night. There is hope. Those who are left behind are talking, no more than ever before. They have lots to say and questions no one can answer. But they want others to be spared of the undescribable pain that comes from losing a loved one to suicide. If you read the 2015 3-part Suicide Awareness Series in Tricia's Trader,

you know that there can be hundreds of reasons an individual struggles with mental illness. They are real problems. If we as a society value human life at all, we must urgently search for a real solution, no matter how hard the challenge. No matter how dark, how evil, how painful, there must be light shed. Everything looks different in the light. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem, and one that simply passes on the pain from one person exponentially to others. That doesn't seem like it solves anything. We are a generation of poor communicators. We don't listen well, and so we don't know what we don't know. We live in an all too connected lonely world, and we mistakenly believe that because we're connected we're sociable. We are losing the sense of community that the greatest of civilizations were formed with. And yet, it is only AFTER we lose a loved one that we learn the signs that were there all along. This needs to change. This is WHY need to talk about it more than ever. Hope and help ARE out there, as is evidenced by the long list of resources on the next page, but we must be more alert and less self-absorbed. I urge you, this September and any time, to educate yourself. Take a class, read a book, join a volunteer group. Most of us, if we came across someone lying in the street bleeding, would stop to help. We would take noticed and either call for help, or help them ourselves if we had the knowledge and skills needed. We must learn to do the same for this other important health impairment if we value our role as God's children. Until we shine the light, we can't see those who are suffering in the dark. ************************************* 2016 2nd Annual Suicide Awareness/Prevention Walk in Memory of Tristan Billmayer September 24, 2016, 8:30 a.m. St. Thomas Catholic Church, Hogeland • • •

Ramblings of a Conservative

Cow Doctor by Krayton Kerns, DVM, former State Rep. HD 58

Old Glory

I spent last weekend running over the Grand Targhee ski area in Wyoming’s Tetons. It was the Ragnar Trail Relay where competitors from teams of eight alternate running three mountain loops until each member had finished all three. The green loop was 3.5 miles and climbed 350 feet. The yellow loop was just over five miles and ascended 750 feet. The red loop was a seven mile beast. In 3.5 miles it climbed 2,020 feet to top out above tree-line at 9,920 feet. This is a slope so steep it has difficulty holding snow, which is why God has blessed this ski area with an average annual snowfall of 500 inches. Only He can overwhelm the laws of gravity. As the race takes 24 to 28 hours to complete, we set up a

comfortable base camp with all the amenities of home…if your home were a wall tent. To make a patriotic point, once the tent, cots and stove were in place, we drove a pipe in the ground and proudly raised the colors of our great nation. We were the first of nearly one hundred tents and we chose a treeless knob to be visible to teammates arriving well after dark Thursday evening. For two days, everyone passing the designated camping area could not do so without seeing our wall tent and flag. Friday afternoon several of us were recovering at camp while waiting for Paul to complete the challenging red loop. Our American flag was flapping in the stiff breeze and the western sun beamed a

brilliant cross through the stars on the blue background. With it being two days before Patriot’s Day, I have never been more proud to call myself an American. This brings me to my point. The best way to negate the Colin Kaepernick hoopla is to overwhelm the haters with the stars of stripes. If everyone flies Old Glory at every opportunity, ungrateful Americans will waste their lives sitting in protest while the rest of us flourish with the bounty of freedom. God has truly blessed me because I was born an American. You too?
