Send me you harvesting/canning/freezing tips!
I'd like to do a write up about special tips Murdock community members use during their garden harvest. Whether it be vegetable or fruit tips, I'd like to hear about them. Or, if you have a FAVORITE recipe you use, please send it! I know Mary Fritz has an AWESOME home made tomato soup recipe. If you have tips from ‘how to keep the weeds out' to ‘how to pick a watermelon', please pass them on to me so the wealth of wisdom can be shared with our fellow Murdockians.
Fair entry photo and information also still needed. Please send me an email or give me a call with your 4-H or fair entries. Murdock would LOVE to have a sneak preview!
Elmwood-Murdock Great Bike Race – September 8th. The Cass County Visitors Promotion Committee will be assisting with the promoting of the race again this year, but a large number of volunteers are needed to help with the race the day of activities. If you would like to volunteer, please contact Judy Cline, president of the Elmwood Murdock Merchants' Association (EMMA).
Inspiration
The Most Beautiful Rainbow
As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.

Helpful Hints
Pain Relievers Are NOT All Alike
Though non-prescription pain relievers (called “analgesics”) are similar, each type has its own special benefits:
- ACETAMINOPHEN Products: provide relief of pain and fever, and are especially useful for children or for anyone allergic to aspirin.
- ASPIRIN Products: provide relief of headache pain, muscular aches, neuralgia (nerve pain), and fever of colds. They're also useful for the pain of sprains and arthritis because of their anti-inflammatory action.
- IBUPROFEN Products-are similar to aspirin with effectiveness over pain, fever, and inflammation.
- COMBINATION Products-usually provide an antacid with aspirin to minimize any aspirin-related stomach discomfort.
