Y
oung Canadian farm-
family people are be-
ing invited to travel to
Australia to participate
in the harvest (October
to December) on a paid,
educational working holi-
day. Participants would
be guaranteed paid work,
comfortable accommoda-
tions, insurances and safe-
ty training.
Unusually, the pro-
gram has been set-up by a
frm of chartered accoun-
tants, based in the Mal-
lee region of the southern
state of Victoria.
Te f rm, Dodgshun
Medlin, has a solid rural
base, with 15 full-time ag-
ricultural consultants on
staf and a large client base
of farmers.
Tese people need
extra hands at harvest
time, says operations
chief, Mark Dodgshun.
We set out to fnd a solu-
tion and Canada fell very
neatly into place.
Specif cally, the Far-
maroo initiative is looking
for Canadian people aged
between 18 and 30, who
are familiar with farm life
and the basics of operating
machinery, have a bond
with the land, and who are
interested in learning.
Just a decade ago,
this region, which borders
Australias Outback, was
a virtual dustbowl, but in-
novative farming practices
and bigger, better machin-
ery have turned it into an
agricultural showcase that
now feeds millions, says
Carling Henderson, pro-
gram coordinator.
It is certainly dif er-
ent from Canada. In Can-
ada you might be cultivat-
ing a feld of 100-acres or
so. On the Mallee, a single
paddock could be 15 times
that. You might be harvest-
ing a mile or two in a single
line, all on GPS. Your grain
cart could be 30 tones. Te
combine front could be 40
feet or more.
Hendersons role is to
ensure that Farmaroos are
welcomed given comfort-
able quarters and condi-
tions. We match the right
people with the right roles
on the right farms, she
says. We handle the ini-
tial safety education, pay-
ment and so on. As a frm
of chartered accountants
we know which Is to dot
and Ts to cross, so there is
no complication. And Im
there on call to handle any
questions or issues that
arise. Its a safe, sensible
and rewarding way to ex-
perience farming in Aus-
tralia, and theres plenty of
recreational opportunities
to go with it.
Dodshun Medlin itself
was established 50 years
ago and with a large staf of
f nancial and agricultural
specialists, it is very much
apart of the landscape.
Framaroos should be con-
f dent in the companys
ethics, arrangements and
guarantees.
Participants are fun-
damentally guaranteed
f ve, 40-hour weeks of
work, with the option of
more if the harvest de-
mands and participants
are willing. Once the crop
is in, participants are free
to travel and work in Aus-
tralia for anywhere up to
another 12 months, and
have the option to return
for the next years harvest
if they choose.
Drew Cardy from
Minnedosa participated
in the pilot program two
years ago. You get good
pay, a nice house to stay
in and I was given my own
vehicle, says Cardy.
Its quite a surprise.
You know youre going to
be working on a farm but
you dont know what the
landscape is going to be
like and you come out here
and its really beautiful,
Cardy continues. You see
the wildlife everywhere-
kangaroos, emus, snakes,
echidnas and lizards. Te
farmers I worked for were
really nice people, re-
ally nice equipment, and
the best technology. Tey
dont overwork you but
if you want the experi-
ence theyll give you extra
hours. You learn so much,
see new things, and meet
new people. It is a great ad-
venture. You couldnt ask
for a better situation.

F
rontier Trading Com-
pany Inc., has been
dealing with some repeat
theft and vandalism. Over
the course of the long
weekend, the ofenders
trespassed after hours,
rummaged through the
community donation bins
and left behind a scat-
tered mess and a load of
garbage in the company
vehicle.
Te community is
great, we get a lot of do-
nations, and it is a shame
that someone would come
along and try to ruin it like
this, says Rita Creigh-
ton, Executive Director at
Frontier Trading Compa-
ny Inc.
Creighton notes that
this is not the frst time
that this has occurred,
saying that the same thing
has happened on over a
dozen other occasions, in-
cluding Tursday and Fri-
day of last week.
Staf returned to work
after the long weekend to
once again fnd the dona-
tion bin contents sprawled
throughout the parking
lot and had to spend two
hours cleaning up the
mess.
Creighton hopes that
the community will as-
sist the company, report-
ing any activity seen after
hours that may seem sus-
picious. If the problem
persists Frontier may be
looking for security cam-
era donations from the
community and is looking
into involving the RCMP.
It is frustrating, not
only because we have to
clean up the mess but if
it had rained before we
could gather the items,
they would have been ru-
ined. And even the items
we dont sell are put to
good use, we donate them
to the community, cloth-
ing to near-by hutterite
colonies, museums, and
we just fnished donat-
ing some furniture to the
Minnedosa Drama Club,
Creighton adds.

An editors beatitudes
R
eprinted from the September 8th,1983 edition of
Te Minnedosa Tribune. First appeared in the
Bufalo Lake (Montana) News.
Blessed are they who do not expect the editor
to know everybody who tell him whenever an in-
teresting event occurs for they shall have a better
newspaper for it.
Blessed are they who get their copy in early, for
they shall occupy a warm spot in the editors heart
and will be sure of seeing to it that their items get
into print correctly.
Blessed are the merchants who advertise regu-
larly, for they have faith in their businesses, and
their prosperity shall increase many fold.
Blessed is the woman who sends in a written
account of a party or wedding, for she shall see the
details and names of her guests in print as she sent
them in.
Blessed are those readers who pay their sub-
scriptions promptly when they expire, so that the
publishers can pay their bills when they come due.
Blessed are they who do not think they could
run a newspaper better than the editor does yes,
thrice blessed are they, because there are so few of
them in the community.
By Trevor Atchison
Beef Producer and President
Manitoba Beef Producers
A
scientist in London, U.K. recently ate meat he cre-
ated in a laboratory. Te event generated head-
lines and editorials all over the world.
Te development of muscle tissue from cattle
stem cells is interesting science that provides count-
less opportunities for the advancement of medical
treatments, such as skin replacements for burn vic-
tims or replacement of failed organs. Tis is exciting.
However, some people also think that this event
was good news for the environment. Tat is unfor-
tunate and comes from persistent misconceptions
about the environmental impact of beef production,
especially on the Canadian Prairies. Laboratory-
grown tissue is not necessarily a good replacement
for the sound environmental management outcomes
from cattle production in our part of the world.
As a beef producer I am a steward of the land. I
am concerned that far too many people are confusing
abandoning land with conservation, as well-known
journalist Gwynne Dyer did in his recent column, Te
worlds most important hamburger.
Dyer states we would be able to turn most of
that 70 per cent of agricultural land back into forest
and prairie or switch it to growing grain for human
consumption. If this happened in Manitoba it would
have a devastatingly negative ecological impact. Te
economic impact would also be disastrous, but I will
set that aside for now.
Grazing cattle are an integral part of grassland
ecosystems and help us meet our conservation ob-
jectives. For example, scientifc research in Canadas
Prairie community pastures has shown that those
pastures preserve habitat for 33 diferent species. En-
dangered species conservation is happening hand-in-
hand with managed cattle grazing.
Beef producers need to be economically viable,
but in doing so they can also provide society with
many environmental services such as preserving
wetlands. According to an analysis conducted by the
University of Manitoba, the total value of the social,
economic, agricultural, and ecological functions
coming from Manitobas grazing lands is $31.4 billion.
Tat speaks both to the job-creating value of the graz-
ing livestock industry as well as its ability to maintain
important environmental goods and services for all
Manitobans.
One of our provinces most active conservation
organizations in Agro Manitoba makes a point of
working with beef producers because of the connec-
tion between cattle and habitat conservation in our
region.
Tim Sopuck, Chief Executive of cer of the Mani-
toba Habitat Heritage Corporation, has said, Te
most signifcant reservoir of habitat in our agricultural
region is found on lands managed by beef producers.
According to Sopuck, Cattle pastures and hay-
lands also harbor grasslands, woodlands and wet-
lands that shelter wildlife, improve water quality, re-
duce fooding, protect soils and store carbon.
He noted that if cattle could not be raised eco-
nomically on those lands, many producers would
have no choice but to break them up and plant annual
crops like wheat, oats and canola. Right away, habi-
tat would be lost. And because many of these lands
are hilly, sandy or generally have fragile soils, annual
cultivation would increase soil erosion that would de-
grade our land and water.
Sopuck stated, Interestingly, we should recog-
nize beef producers as the largest habitat conservation
group in rural Manitoba. Tey are stewards of millions
of acres of wetlands, grasslands and woodlands.
Cattle produce food from resources that humans
can not eat; people dont do well grazing grass. In
Manitoba, beef production occurs on land that is not
best suited for grain production, but benefts from
having the protection of grasses and other natural
vegetation. We should be making eforts to preserve
pasture and hayland, not drain and cultivate it.
Beef cattle ranching is a key industry left on the
landscape that is imitating natural processes and pro-
ducing high-quality protein for people while provid-
ing those other resources that the public expects, such
as soil-conserving permanent cover, trees, wetlands
and wildlife. Tese are results that lab-grown beef will
not be able to deliver on the landscape.
Manitobas beef producers will continue to pro-
duce environmentally sustainable, healthy and af-
fordable beef while adding signifcantly to the growth
and development of Manitobas economy. Tis is sus-
tainability in action. Eat your Manitoba-raised burger
with relish and the confdence that it is an environ-
mentally responsible decision.

Dear Editor,
M
anitoba school chil-
dren and youth are
heading back to school as
another summer recess
comes to an end. Tat an-
nual process involves lots
of preparation by parents
as school supply lists are
flled, new clothes are pur-
chased and other prepara-
tions take place for the new
school year.
Of course teachers,
school administrators and
other school staf are also
going through their own
preparations as they ready
their lessons and their
schools for the new aca-
demic year. While for long-
term educators these be-
come similar rituals every
year, they are important for
a successful year of learn-
ing.
It is equally important
that the provincial govern-
ment, which is responsible
for education, is prepared
as well. We should expect
that the provincial gov-
ernment is administering
policy that helps parents,
teachers and school ad-
ministrators. Tat is what
we should expect but there
are a number of areas that
the NDP have fallen short
of that expectation.
One thing parents did
not need this school year
was an increase in their
costs. By increasing the
PST from seven percent to
eight percent the NDP have
increased the costs for ev-
ery parent of sending their
children back to school. As
parents work through the
school supply list they will
be paying more for most
of the items. Tat is in ad-
dition to the other fees and
costs that come with school
preparation. It is hard
enough for many parents
to meet the demands of the
annual back to school costs
and the NDP shouldnt
have made it harder as a re-
sult of their overspending.
Also disappointing is
how little the NDP know
about some of the things
that happen in our schools.
Issues around school safety
and student safety need
to be paramount and in
many cases the NDP have
deliberately chosen to turn
a blind eye to these issues.
For example, the NDP gov-
ernment does not collect
data on the number of in-
stances of bullying.
Manitobans agree that
bullying is a serious issue.
And yet the NDP has no
idea if the problem is get-
ting worse or in what ways
it may be getting worse be-
cause they do nothing to
track it. Similarly, the NDP
do not ask schools that go
into lockdown to provide
the reasons that it hap-
pened or the frequency. As
a result the NDP govern-
ment has no idea how often
our provincial schools go
into a lock-down procedure
or why. And all the NDP
would have to do is ask, but
they simply dont.
When it comes to the
amount of drugs that are
found in our schools no
province-wide records are
kept because the NDP re-
fuse to ask the question. As
a result we dont have any
idea whether the challenge
of drugs in our schools is
getting worse or is getting
better simply because the
NDP dont want to know.
Parents, teachers and
school administrators
spend a great deal of time
preparing for the school
year. Tey do everything
they can to ensure its the
best experience our chil-
dren can have. We should
be able to expect the same
efort from our provincial
government.

Provincial NDP failing education
Dear Editor,
I
was the instructor of the U of M students who were
at Clint and Pam Cavers farm near Pilot Mound, MB
when MAFRI inspectors came to seize and destroy
their stock of cured meat last week.
When we pulled out our cameras, the inspector
became agitated and insistently asked for our names,
phone numbers and copies of our I.D. informing us that
we might have to go to court. He then demanded that
we delete any photos we took. When asked to comment,
MAFRI representative Glen Duizer is quoted in the Win-
nipeg Free Press as saying that it is customary to request
the names of any individuals present during an inves-
tigation. Tis comment from MAFRI was formulated
before MAFRI knew that some of the footage was not
deleted, despite the inspector checking the cameras to
ensure there were no pictures. Mr Duizers words seem
intended to normalize how MAFRI treated the Cavers
and how they treated the students/instructor.
Te RCMP of cer who was called to the scene by
MAFRI actually told the inspector to, take it down a
notch and that the inspector needed to be more re-
spectful because the Cavers livelihood was at stake.
If this incident refects normal procedure, as sug-
gested by Duizer, then I suggest MAFRI needs to take a
serious look at what normal is.
Te students involved have taken the lead on creat-
ing a website about the incident. I invite you and your
readers to view the footage and decide for yourself at

M
innedosas Ski Val-
ley may be joined
by another area ski hill in
the future. Parks Canada
recently announced an of-
fcial Request for Proposal
to re-open Mount Agassiz
skill hill in Riding Moun-
tain National Park.
Tis RFP is an impor-
tant frst step towards re-
opening the Mount Agas-
siz Ski Area, says Richard
Dupuis, acting superin-
tendent at RMNP. Parks
Canada is committed to
supporting tourism indus-
try initiatives to provide
opportunities for visitors
to enjoy and understand
their national parks, while
maintaining the ecological
integrity of these special
places.
RMNP is 3,000 square
kilometers of boreal for-
est, aspen parkland and
fescue prairie, and 98 per-
cent of the land is desig-
nated wilderness but the
area still sees its fair share
of tourism with the town
of Wasagaming having
250,000 visitors a year.
In 1958, Parks Cana-
da leased 142 hectares of
land to a private operator
for development of a ski
hill. Te Mount Agassiz
area was then defned as
a commercial ski area un-
der the Canada National
Parks Act. In 1961, Mount
Agassiz was opened with a
handful of ski runs.
A decade later the
resort went through a se-
ries of improvements in-
cluding the addition of a
chairlift, a day lodge and
expanded trail footprint,
courtesy of the Canadian
Winter Games held in Mc-
Creary, MB, in 1979.
After a number of suc-
cessful seasons the ski
hill saw a sharp decline in
visitors and was forced to
close its doors in the spring
of 2000.
In January of last year,
the SE Group, one of the
worlds most experienced
mountain resort planning
frms, reported on a two-
year feasibility study that
was done on the proposed
project. Tis included
taking a comprehensive
look at the ski industry in
Manitoba as well as meet-
ing with key stakeholders,
including, Eascarment Ad-
visory Board, Travel Mani-
toba, Agassiz Ski Hill 2000,
Ebb and Flow First Nation,
Rolling River First Na-
tion, McCreary Economic
Development, McCreary
Golf Course, McCreary
Business Community
members, Agassiz Moun-
tain Development Group,
Asessippi Ski Area and Re-
sort, as well as Ski Valley in
Minnedosa.
In June 2012, an ap-
proved management plan
amendment was tabled in
Parliament which states
that Parks Canada will
consider fnancially sus-
tainable proposals for the
re-development of a ski
hill at Mount Agassiz, to
include mutli-season rec-
reation activities.
Te multi-season
component is diferent
than what the ski area
was prior to this, says
Dupuis. In the past, the
facility served the winter
visitors quite well. We see
the beautiful slopes of the
Manitoba Escarpment and
theres a lot of potential
there.
SE Group suggested
three diferent options for
proposal which included,
downsizing the amount of
ski runs to just the east side
of the hill, opening both
runs and restoring the ex-
isting lodge, or creating
two new ski lifts and new
lodge. Each proposed op-
tion has its own fnancial
up and downsides.
Parks Canada hopes
to create a long-term f-
nancially and operation-
ally successful business
that delivers exceptional
visitor experience, unique
educational opportunities,
all while protecting the
ecological integrity of the
park.
Prospects will work
with Parks Canada on f-
nalizing site guidelines,
long-range plans, and
lease negotiations. Te
deadline for proposals is
May 30th, 2014 and Parks
Canada believes that there
will be numerous propos-
als from a variety of both
public and private groups.
Selection of a suitable pro-
posal will be made by Parks
Canada three months after
the deadline.
Fallen ski hill to be revived
Mount Agassiz Ski Hill opened in 1961 and closed in 2000. Tis facility has experienced some
deterioration over the past 13 years as shown in this photo from February 2012.

T
he Manitoba Govern-
ments decision to en-
act a full ban on cosmetic
pesticides is receiving a
variety of feedback. While
some are quick to com-
plain about the possibility
of public areas quickly be-
coming weeded eye-sores,
others see the environ-
mental and health benefts
of riding our communities
of chemicals.
Whatever your view-
point may be, Gord Mack-
intosh, conservation and
water stewardship min-
ister, has announced that
legislation will be intro-
duced in the fall of 2014,
and cosmetic pesticides
will be banned in Mani-
toba.
Under the ban, which
will take efect in Decem-
ber 2014, synthetic, chemi-
cal lawn pesticides will
not be allowed on lawns,
driveways, sidewalks, pati-
os, school grounds, playing
felds and playgrounds.
Tere will be a one-
year grace period to allow
residents to adjust to using
diferent methods of weed
control. Agricultural lands,
golf courses and sod farms
have exemption from the
ban. Te goal of the ban is
to reduce pesticide expo-
sure to Manitobans, main-
ly children.
Mackintosh says Man-
itoba is bringing in this
legislation, because there
is increasing availability of
replacement products and
alternative turf manage-
ment practices that efec-
tively control weeds.
Since 2002 environ-
mental groups have been
lobbying for a full ban of all
pesticides, fertilizers, and
herbicides.
Most recently, the
American Academy of
Pediatrics reported that
epidemiologic evidence
demonstrates associations
between early life expo-
sure to pesticides and pe-
diatric cancers, decreased
cognitive function and be-
havioural problems.
From a risk versus
benef t perspective, the
health benefts of reducing
unnecessary use of cos-
metic pesticides outweigh
the risks, said Dr. Elise
Weiss, deputy chief pro-
vincial health of cer. It is
prudent to reduce the risk
of pesticide exposure to
pregnant women and chil-
dren.
Farrah Khan, spokes-
person for the Canadian
Association of Physicians
for the Environment, says
its about protecting chil-
dren because the science
shows that pesticides are a
threat to kids.
You might think of it
as an emotional argument,
but I dont see it that way
at all, she said. Te sci-
ence points to children
because they are smaller,
they are more vulner-
able to getting afected by
these chemical pesticides.
Teyre at a stage in their
life where they are devel-
oping... and thats why the
science shows that kids are
most at risk.
Khan said risks associ-
ated with lawn and garden
pesticides are simply too
high. If the beneft is just
to remove a few dandeli-
ons from your lawn, but
youre risking potentially
giving your kid asthma or
ADHD (attention defcit
hyperactivity disorder) or
cancer in some cases, we
dont think the benefts
outweigh the risks.
More than 170 Ca-
nadian municipalities al-
ready have a ban in place.
In 2009, Ontario prohibit
the use of 290 pesticide
products for residential
and community land-
scapes. January 2012, Al-
berta banned weed and
feed products. Quebec was
the frst city to ban the use
and sale of 20 ingredients
in lawn pesticides in 2003.
However, they have now
recanted the ban and state
that products containing
2-4D do not pose an un-
acceptable risk to human
health or the environment.
British Columbia conduct-
ed a 10-month review and
determined that there was
not enough scientifc evi-
dence to justify a ban on
cosmetic pesticides within
their province.
Industry stakeholders
feel that the ban is strictly
coming from public mis-
information and the deci-
sion is being made by an
emotional responds as op-
posed to a science-based
decision.
Health Canada and
United States Environmen-
tal Protection Agency have
been evaluating the efects
of these pesticides for de-
cades and say that there is
not enough scientifc proof
that cosmetic pesticides
expose humans or animal
to any sort of health risks.
Te focus should be put
on educating consumers
and landscapers about the
proper, responsible usage
of approved products.
Te Manitoba Canola
Growers Association has
voiced concerns about
weeds spreading onto ag-
ricultural land and also
said public policy on pes-
ticides should be based
on scientif c evidence. In
other words, the province
shouldnt claim pesticides
are a threat to human
health if Health Canada
has found that they are
safe when used properly.
Te Manitoba Govern-
ment is recommending
an alternate to chemical
pesticides with the natu-
ral, organic alternative,
ParIII Fiesta. Te organic
weed-control product and
was approved by Health
Canada in 2010, iron is
its main active ingredient
and will require twice the
amount of applications
than its chemical counter-
part.

W
hile many people
spend their sum-
mer holidays camping or
soaking up the sun at the
lake, my idea of a perfect
summer vacation is a road
trip to discover small rural
communities and stopping
by museums and historic
sites. During our recent
week of from work, my
wife Karen and I again em-
barked on one of these ad-
ventures in neighbouring
Saskatchewan.
Two years ago while
visiting friends in Fort
QuAppelle, SK, I pur-
chased a book highlighting
historic stone buildings
in Saskatchewan. One of
the handsome, historic
homes featured in this
book that caught my atten-
tion was the home of Sas-
katchewans frst Minister
of Agriculture, William
Motherwell. After read-
ing the short story about
this beautiful old home,
my excitement grew when
I learned that this home
was a national historic site
open to visitors. As a guy
who has a deep passion for
old buildings, especially
big, old houses, I had to get
to Motherwell Homestead
and tour this grand old
farmhouse!
Located two kilome-
tres down a dusty gravel
road south of the village
of Abernethy, SK (popu-
lation 196), the Mother-
well Homestead is much
more than a big old stone
house. From the parking
lot, on the south edge of
the property, visitors enter
a modern building which
houses a visitor informa-
tion centre, gift shop and
restaurant. After paying
your minimal admission
fee you head out the back
door and are welcomed
by a tree covered path
which passes a large veg-
etable garden which kept
the Motherwell family rich
in produce. At the north
end of this path is a small
wooden implement shed,
painted in bright barn red.
Inside, visitors can view
some of the farm related
equipment and tools that
would have been common
on prairie farms in the late
1800s and early 1900s.
Just beyond the shed,
is a thick caragana hedge
which has grown up and
over two wrought iron ar-
bours, one on the south
side and one on the north.
Pass through these arbours
and you enter the large
open space which in years
past was Mr. Motherwells
prized tennis court, which
he often referred to as
his outdoor living room.
From the tennis court, you
get your frst real close-up
glimpse at the magnifcent
stone house that was home
to this agricultural pioneer.
Te house itself is a
major attraction and his-
toric architectural trea-
sure. Constructed in 1897
using feldstones W.R.
Motherwell gathered from
his own nearby felds, the
elegance and decorative
features of the home show
prominence on the prai-
rie. While the front por-
tion of the house is built
in the foursquare style
and stands two-and-a-half
storeys tall, the rear por-
tion of the house appears
more like a quaint stone
farmhouse, with a gable
roof and rising only one-
and-three-quarters high
and a lean-to on the north
side. Te entire house is
decorated with delicate
scrolled woodwork, often
referred to as gingerbread
style. All the magnif-
cent exterior trim work is
painted in bold white and
red. At the top of the main
house is a black wrought
iron surrounded platform
known as a widows walk
or widows watch. When
originally constructed, the
house cost between three
and four thousand dollars.
Upon entering this
magnif cent home, you
quickly realize the interior
is going to be every bit as
elegant and high class as
the exterior. Tis is not
Little House on the Prai-
rie. Presently restored to
depict the 1910-1914 time
period, the interior of the
Motherwell home makes
you feel as if you have en-
tered a prominent home
in the historic district of
some large city rather than
a farmhouse in rural Sas-
katchewan.
Heading back outside
from the house, the north-
east corner of the home-
stead features a large po-
tato garden which would
supply the Motherwell
family with spuds through-
out the winter and spring.
In the 1930s this piece
of land became an or-
chard. Between the potato
garden and the barnyard
is a pathway surrounded
on both sides by Manitoba
Maple and Chokecherry
trees. Tis path, known as
Lovers Lane, was planted
to separate the home and
work areas of the proper-
ty.
At the north end of
Lovers Lane sits a small
cottage which was built
in 1908 to provide a home
for hired men and shel-
ter for extra threshermen
who assisted with the har-
vest. South of the cottage,
across the barn yard sits
a large, L-shaped wooden
barn with feldstone foun-
dation. Tis important
farm building was con-
structed during a barn
raising bee in 1907. Just
south of the barn, hidden
amongst the trees is the
dugout which supplied
the farm with water. Tere
is also a nature trail which
takes you across a canola
feld to a natural body of
water, which to city dwell-
ers I am sure would be
quite a diferent experi-
ence to take in.
While W.R. Mother-
wells homestead was des-
ignated a National Historic
Site in May 1966, it has only
been open to the public for
the past 30 years. A visit to
Motherwell Homestead is
defnitely worth the trip!

P
eanut butter became
public in 1904 and was
patented by Dr. Kellogg
who developed it as a meat
alternative. Peanut butter
is healthy and even more
importantly, it was Te
Kings favourite food (yes,
of course I mean Elvis).
Mice love peanut but-
ter even more than cheese.
Te following is an easy
approach to capturing
mice using peanut but-
ter. Position a fve-gallon
bucket with a lid in a room
that mice seem to visit the
most. Cover the bucket
and cut a four-inch hole
in the lid. Make a ramp so
that the mice fall in. Spread
peanut butter around the
hole. After he falls in, bring
him at least 2 km from your
home/camper before re-
leasing him.
One of the more com-
mon solutions to keeping
mice away is to spread the
contents of a box of Bounce
around a camper (even on
the outside). Some people
swear by this while others
say that it does not work
(for them), as is the case
with peppermint oil and
Irish Spring soap slivers.
Remove scratches on
CDs using peanut butter.
Apply a small amount of
peanut butter to a cofee
f lter, wipe the scratches
and remove all excess pea-
nut butter.
Use peanut butter to
remove gum from hair. Te
greasy consistency causes
the gum to slide out.
Remove stickers and
labels by wiping with pea-
nut butter.
When you are camp-
ing and run out of shaving
cream use peanut butter as
a substitute.
Fill holes and cracks
in walls by smearing with
peanut butter and cover-
ing with paint.
Make an inexpensive
bird feeder by smearing
a bagel with peanut but-
ter, rolling it in seeds and
hanging the bagel on a
branch using string.
Best Peanut But-
ter Cookie Recipe: Com-
bine one-half cup butter
or margarine, one-half
cup white sugar, one-half
cup brown sugar, 1-cup
smooth or crunchy pea-
nut butter, 1-egg, one and
a half cup four, half-tea-
spoon baking soda, one-
quarter teaspoon vanilla
and one-quarter teaspoon
salt. Drop onto baking
sheet. Bake 350 degrees for
8 minutes or until lightly
browned.
Did you knowwom-
en and children typically
prefer smooth peanut
butter while men prefer
chunky?
Genuine peanut but-
ter is made without addi-
tives and should be refrig-
erated.
Did you know
Arachibutyrophobia- Is
the fear of getting peanut
butter stuck to the roof of
your mouth?
When shopping for
peanut butter, look for
dry-roasted peanuts. Pea-
nuts contain more than
enough fat; therefore this
is a healthier choice than
peanut butter roasted in
oil.
Great news! Peanut
butter is high in vitamin A
and E, folic acid, calcium,
magnesium, zinc, iron,
fber, thiamin, niacin, po-
tassium, pantothenic acid
and phosphorus.
Even better news there
is no cholesterol in pea-
nut butter. Te peanut is
not a nut, but a legume re-
lated to beans and lentils.
Cholesterol is found only
in products from animal
sources (meat and dairy).
Like olive oil, peanut but-
ter is primarily mono-satu-
rated fat, which isnt linked
to heart disease. However,
beware of the fat. Peanut
butter is high in calories
and too much of any fat
can increase the risk of
heart disease.
Have you ever won-
dered why peanuts are
considered a meat alter-
native? Tey both contain
protein, but unlike meat,
nuts also supply fber.
Warning: Never eat moldy
peanut butter; it could be
contaminated with a fun-
gus called, aspergillus.
Te dif erence be-
tween natural and tradi-
tional peanut butter is not
signifcant. Both contain a
minimum of 90% peanuts,
with no artifcial sweeten-
ers, colors or preservatives.
However, some manufac-
turers may add less than
2% partially hydrogenated
oil or a small amount of
sugar.
Recipe for Peanut But-
ter: You will need 3-cups
unsalted, roasted peanuts
and 1-tbsp. peanut oil.
Pour oil into a food pro-
cessor, gradually add pea-
nuts and blend to desired
consistency. Increase the
recipe as needed.

ing. Missed a column?

ON THE FARM
By ELMER KASKIW
T
he long hours on the
swather and combine
can be a good time to do
some preliminary crop
planning for next year es-
pecially when one can
identify potential cropping
issues that may not be so
readily apparent in late fall
and early winter. In partic-
ular the ability to identify
specifc areas for soil test-
ing and to identify specifc
weed problems that may
have gone unnoticed or
escaped this past growing
season. Some points to
consider might include:
1. What crops should
I include in my rotation
and how can I make my
rotation more diverse? Di-
versity is the key since it
can help mitigate disease,
weed and insect problems.
We have all seen the bump
in yields on crops that have
followed peas or fax when
compared to yields on
typical canola wheat rota-
tions.
2. What are the nutri-
ent levels in each feld?
Soil testing will be espe-
cially important this year
after dealing with the lodg-
ing we experienced during
this past growing season.
Nitrogen variability in
felds has never been more
apparent and should be
a good incentive to have
felds tested this fall. Phos-
phate levels have also been
dropping in our soils and
we can only build them up
in the cereal component of
our rotation when phos-
phate is applied with the
seed.
3. How much water is
available and where are
the nutrients? Crops vary
in their rooting ability. Te
deeper the roots, the more
accessible they are to wa-
ter and nutrients found
farther down in the soil
profle. More diverse crop
rotations allow you to take
advantage of the diferent
rooting patterns to ma-
nipulate moisture levels.
Canola is deeply rooted
and is a good ft for wetter
areas as they can penetrate
deep into the soil to re-
duce subsoil moisture and
access nutrients deeper
into the soil profle. Ce-
real crops can also be deep
rooted but their rooting
depth will depend more
on early season tempera-
tures and moisture condi-
tions. Peas and lentil tend
to be more shallow rooted
and will typically dry out
topsoil moisture allowing
subsoil moisture to accu-
mulate.
4. What are the soil
biology considerations
that may infuence crop
choice? Mycorrhizal fungi
in the soil form mutually
benefcial relationships
with plants. Te fungi pen-
etrate the roots and extend
threads into the soil where
they can access nutrients
such as phosphate for the
plant. Pulses and fax form
strong associations with
these mycorrhizal fungi,
while cereals are less de-
pendent, and canola is
considered to be a non-
mycorrhizal crop.
5. What are the disease
issues and when was the
last time I grew this crop?
Crop rotations can be a
signifcant management
tool when it comes to resi-
due and soil-borne plant
diseases. Leaving a rest pe-
riod between certain crops
can successfully reduce
plant pathogen popula-
tions to a level where other
disease control methods
will work more efectively.
Most recently we are see-
ing feld peas requiring a
minimum of a one in four
year to even one in fve
year rotation.
6. Are there weed is-
sues to consider and is
there potential for a high
number of volunteers
from the previous crop?
When selecting a crop it
is important to consider
its weed control needs
or limitations. Matching
weedier felds with crops
or varieties that are more
competitive and have bet-
ter herbicide options is
important. It is not just the
presence of weeds but po-
tential volunteers from the
previous crop that should
be considered. Canola, for
example, can be problem-
atic as a volunteer, so hav-
ing options in next years
crops is important.
7. Are there residual
herbicide considerations?
It is important to know
the residual properties of
the herbicides you are ap-
plying in order to avoid
any unwanted cropping
restrictions in your crop
rotation. Te length of
time it takes herbicides
to break down can vary
and is dependent upon a
number of factors, includ-
ing rainfall, soil organic
matter, soil pH, and tem-
perature.
8. Does my crop se-
lection allow me to rotate
herbicides? Herbicide re-
sistance has been increas-
ing in frequency, particu-
larly with Group One and
Group Two herbicides. We
continue to see cleaver
populations resistant to
Group Two herbicides
and it is now estimated
that over 90 percent of
kochia populations are
now resistant to Group
Two herbicides. Rotating
or mixing herbicides from
dif erent groups on each
feld is critical to prevent-
ing the development of
resistance. Tis is the case
with all pesticides, includ-
ing fungicides, insecti-
cides and herbicides.

RCMP warn of

By JENNIFER PAIGE
M
anitoba Hydro has recently utilized a new Mobile
Workforce Management system that is said to bring
faster, more ef cient responds to service calls, especially
in rural areas.
Tis new system allows us to respond to customer
requests more quickly and ef ciently particularly in rural
areas where distances between calls can be much great-
er, says Bruce Plaisier, manager of customer service op-
erations for Manitoba Hydro.
Te new system links computers in work vehicles to
centralized server and dispatch units in Brandon, Selkirk
and Winnipeg. Te system also automatically matches
work request with staf experience and skills allowing for
rapid allocation of man power and other resources.
We receive thousands of work requests for short
duration jobs and it was tedious and labour intensive
to track and assign this work, as well as get the informa-
tion entered into our computer systems after the job was
done, adds Plaisier.
Since the implication of the new system Manitoba
Hydro has been able to eliminate their backlog of older
service orders as well as maintain a short turnaround on
underground service locates with existing staf despite a
10 percent increase in requests over the past year.
By the end of this year Manitoba Hydro hopes to have
680 vehicles equipped with the new system. And Plaisier
adds that, customers should notice faster, more ef cient
responds to service calls.

We thought of you
with love today
But that is nothing new.
We thought about
you yesterday
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake
With which well never part.
In tears we saw you sinking
We watched you fade away.
Our loving hearts were broken
When you fought so
hard to stay.
But when we saw
you sleeping,
So peaceful and
free from pain,
We could not wish you back
To sufer that again.
Sadly missed by

The Minnedosa Tribune
OBITUARY MCNA PROVINCE WIDE CLASSIFIEDS
Don C. Young
May , -
September ,
It is with heavy hearts and
deep sadness that we announce
the passing of a dear husband,
father and grandpa, Donald
Charles Young on September
3, 2013 at the Minnedosa
Health Centre at the age of 76.
Don had a very lengthy battle
with cancer that he faced with
tremendous courage right up
until his passing.
He will be dearly missed by his
loving wife, Linda of 52 years,
daughter, Gaytan, son, Jason (Michelle),
grandsons, Emilio, Logan, Landon and Brandt, sister, Jean,
brother, Bruce (Judy), sister-in-law, Cheryl (Dennis), brother-
in-law, Brent (Mary) and sister-in-law, Chris-Ann (Mel) as well
as many nieces, nephews and friends .
Don was predeceased by his parents, William and Agnes,
brothers-in-law, Jim Horwood and Wendell Watchorn, sister-
in-law, Karen Watchorn, and mother and father-in-law, Lucille
and Gordon Watchorn.
Don was born May 21, 1937 in Minnedosa and was the frst
child of William and Agnes Young. He attended Roseneath
Country School until grade 8 and then attended Minnedosa
Collegiate for his remaining years.
At age 15, Don started working on a mink ranch both after
school and on weekends, he worked construction building the
Brandon Airstrip, and worked on the railroad from 1956-66.
Dons real love though was with animals and grain farming. He
began raising his own mink at age 19 on his family farm and
with his income he purchased his frst section of land at age
20. Don married Linda Watchorn on November 5, 1960 and
this land would be where Don and Linda would live for the next
50 years. During this time Don and Linda were blessed with two
wonderful children, Gaytan on September 17, 1968 and Jason
on November 19, 1972.
Don farmed for 42 years and loved every aspect of farm life.
He enjoyed grain farming and raised various livestock on his
land. He began a greyhound dog hobby farm in 1991 which led
to many trips over a period of 14 years to Abilene, Kansas where
he would leave his dogs to be trained for the race tracks in the
USA. Don and Linda made many special friends during these
visits.
Four very special grandsons, Emilio, Logan, Landon and
Brandt and a daughter-in-law, Michelle made Dons family
complete. He loved his grandsons and always had a twinkle in
his eye when they were around. He enjoyed their humour and
was usually responsible for getting them laughing with his jokes
and teasing.
Don and Linda were able to travel to Ft. Myers, Florida for
many winters. Don loved the warm climate and all the fun that
Siesta Bay had to ofer. He so enjoyed all the new friends they
made in the south.
Don was a very hard-working man who was dedicated to his
family and his faith. He faced many dif cult challenges with his
health the last few years but never complained and faced each
day positively. Don will forever be in our hearts.
A celebration of Dons life will be held at the Minnedosa
Covenant Church (101, 4th Avenue SW) on Monday, September
9 at 2:00 p.m. Interment will take place at the Smoland Cemetary
after the service. All are welcome to join the family for lunch at
the Minnedosa Golf and Country Club following interment.
If friends and family so desire, donations in memory of
Don can be made to Minnedosa Hospital Palliative Care or
Minnedosa Evangelical Covenant Church Building Fund.
In tears we saw you sinking
We watched you fade away,
Our hearts were almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay,
But when we saw you sleeping
So peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back
To sufer that again.
