State Fair looks for South Dakota talent<br />
A long-time tradition at the<br />
South Dakota State Fair is the<br />
Sherwin Linton Show on the Centennial<br />
Stage, and the popular musician<br />
is looking for South Dakota<br />
talent to join him this summer at<br />
the Fair.<br />
A large part of Linton’s time is<br />
spent finding and presenting South<br />
Dakota talent at the State Fair.<br />
The Fair and Linton are asking<br />
for musicians, singers and variety<br />
performers to submit materials to<br />
the Fair for consideration to perform<br />
as guests with “The Sherwin<br />
Linton Show,” which performs<br />
three times daily on the Centennial<br />
Stage during the State Fair.<br />
“We like to invite entertainers of<br />
all ages, both professional and nonprofessional,<br />
to be on stage with us.<br />
They may use pre-recorded tracks<br />
for backup or play their own instruments,”<br />
Linton said. “The experience<br />
and exposure are very positive<br />
things not only for our audience<br />
but also the performers.”<br />
Linton invited two of last year’s<br />
guests, 18-year-old Lane Moore of<br />
Vivian and eight-year-old Delaney<br />
Johnston of Summit, to sing on his<br />
show at the Midwest Country<br />
Music Theater in Sandstone, Minn.<br />
The Midwest Country show is aired<br />
nationally each week on the RFD<br />
TV Network.<br />
For consideration for the 2012<br />
South Dakota State Fair, please<br />
submit a photo, brief bio and CD or<br />
DVD to: Sherwin Linton, Centennial<br />
Stage, South Dakota State<br />
Fair, 890 3rd Street SW, Huron, SD<br />
57350.<br />
The 2012 South Dakota State<br />
Fair will run from Thursday, Aug.<br />
30 through Monday, Sept. 3. Channel<br />
Seeds Preview night will be<br />
Wednesday, Aug. 29. For more information<br />

FARM PROGRAM SIGNUP<br />
The Jackson County-Farm<br />
Service Agency (FSA) reminds producers<br />
that the deadline to enroll<br />
in the 2012 Direct and Counter-<br />
Cyclical Payment (DCP) or Farm<br />
Program is June 1.<br />
DCP provides payments to eligible<br />
producers on farms enrolled for<br />
the 2012 crop year. There are two<br />
types of DCP payments: direct<br />
payments and counter-cyclical<br />
payments. Both are calculated<br />
using the base acres and payment<br />
yields established for the farm.<br />
DCP is authorized by the Food,<br />
Conservation, and Energy Act of<br />
2008 (2008 Farm Bill). Participating<br />
producers agree, among other<br />
things, to apply conservation compliance<br />
plans on Highly Erodible<br />
land, control weeds/pests and follow<br />
the swampbuster/sodbuster<br />
provisions.<br />
