THE USUAL SUSPECTS: Western Kansas Manufacturers Association president and sponsor of the 3i SHOW Eddie Estes poses with Dodge City Marshal Charlie Meade at the Western State Bank Expo Center March 17. “The first 3i SHOW began in 1953 in the Hays, Kansas,” Estes said. “Several manufacturers pulled their implements up to the town square, unloaded their stuff and decided to have a show. From there on, they would go from town square to town square.” When asked what the future holds for the 3i show, Estes said, “We have older farmers now and fewer farms so we need to be able to react to that. The biggest thing we’re working on now is changes in technology.” [PHOTO BY Whitney Hodgin/Dodge City Globe]

Dear Amy: I cannot deal with my “monster-in-law.” She’s bossy, antagonistic, and gossips about my personal business. As much as I try to care about her, my dislike for her has been surfacing more and more.
I’ve had some interesting adventures over the years involving skunks in traps, the worst of which led to a drive home in my underwear so I didn’t totally contaminate the inside of my truck. Looking back, I can call them interesting now, but at the time my descriptions were slightly different. Skunks are fairly laid-back critters and if caught in an enclosed or covered cage trap can usually be carted away in the trap and unceremoniously dumped somewhere without incident.
