Harker said that in 2014 cherries were just starting to sell by July 12 but in 2015 the cherries for the season were sold out – and that included even the latest maturing varieties that aren’t usually sold out until August. “It isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Everyone picks things up early and accepts there won’t be cherries in August.” Over at Tree to Me though there just might be cherries after most other farms are sold out in the valley. $164,900 “We’re not as far ahead as ouaAdifferent other places.

To see that the valley is filled with a variety of microclimates all one needs to do is to look at the apricot trees this time of year. Down at Harker’s Organics in Cawston the bud’s are about to burst while at Tree to Me, north of Keremeos on Highway 3A, things aren’t quite so advanced. “It’s going to be another early season,” Sara Harker said recently. “Last year we were about three to four weeks ahead and this year I’d say we’re about one to two weeks earlier than that.” The early season although welcome at Harker’s makes everyone just a little bit nervous after the buds open because one heavy frost could impact the yield or devastate it overnight. “When the blossoms are Stef Laramie fully open that’s when there’s No, the season isn’t off to quite that sweet of a start that cherries are already blossoming.

First of Hedley Boys casualties remembered Andy English For the Review
This year marks the anniversaries of two of the major battles of the First World War, Verdun and The Somme. The year 1916 was the bloodiest year of the war and for Hedley it was no exception. Seven of the 13 Hedley men who lost their lives during those conflicts did so during 1916. March 1916 saw the deaths of two very popular men from the valley and both were part of the group of 17 men who enlisted on the same day in August 1915. The first two Hedley Boys to perish were Ebenezer Vans and Blair Mills. Ebenezer Vans was born in Glasgow, England but immigrated to Canada as a boy with his family. He eventually settled around the Vernon area. By January of 1911 Vans was employed as an engineer at the Nickel Plate mine and was auditor for the Loyal Orange Lodge, an important organization in the area at the time. He was a regular attendee of many Hedley social events and before enlisting he raffled some of his prize possessions and donated half the proceeds to the Red Cross. He underwent training along with Blair Mills and the other recruits at Vernon camp with the 54th Kootenay Battalion. In November 1915 they sailed to England. There they were billeted at Bordon Camp in Hampshire, England. It was one of the wettest winters in years and before long most of the men were sick. Vans was worse than the others. He was moved to hospital, but on March 3,1916 he died at the age of 30. Sgt. Jack, the platoon sergeant organized a collection and they had a headstone erected for him. The headstone stands to this day in Bordon Military Cemetery. When news of his death reached Hedley there was profound shock and all the flags in town were lowered to half-mast. But worse was to come. At the end of March news started to arrive that Blair Mills had been killed. This was devastating news to both Hedley and
Keremeos. Blair had come west from Nova Scotia as a young boy to join his father Ezra Mills, who in the early 1900s got a job as a carpenter with the Nickel Plate mine and moved his family to be up top with him. In 1907 the family moved to Keremeos where Ezra worked as a carpenter and built many of the early properties in Keremeos, some of which still stand today. In early 1915 Blair struck out and moved to Hedley to work at the mine and it was there that in August 1915 he was one of the volunteers who went to Penticton to enlist. At the time he was underage and had to get his father’s permission. Permission was granted and by December Blair was in England. There the 54th underwent yet more training so when in February 1916 there was a request for men to join a tunnelling company, he and some other Hedley men jumped at the chance to see some early action. Blair was a remarkable young man and was very quickly promoted to Lance Corporal. Unfortunately on March 26, he and another young man, Danny White, were at a listening post at St Eloi in France. This was the site of what would be at the time, the largest ever man made explosion. For months miners had hacked their way through the rock and soil and were now ready to detonate over 90,000 pounds of explosive that had been packed in the shafts. Blair had the job to make sure that the enemy were not mining towards them with their own tunnels and so his job was using primitive sound devices to listen out for the noise of counter tunnellers. Before the St Eloi mines were due to be detonated a massive artillery barrage was fired as part of the attack. The enemy responded in kind. One of those shells landed directly on the listening post being used by Blair and Danny. Both men were killed instantly. Blair Mills was just 19 years of age, Danny White was only 16. With the deaths of Ebenezer Vans and Blair Mills, the town of Hedley now no longer had that spirit of optimism and patriotism that had swept these men off to war. There

was now a realization that the war was going to last a long time and that many more men would be killed or wounded before it was over. And the year was only three months old. The Hedley Museum opens at the end of April and has binders that are available to the public that contain some letters from both these men.
Take the time to talk tick bite safety Review Staff
The early spring weather means many of us are spending more time outside and we aren’t the only ones enjoying the unseasonable warmth. The change in weather has also brought out the ticks. For those that don’t know, ticks are small bugs that feed on the blood of humans and animals and can sometimes transmit disease. Ticks are most often found in tall grass and wooded areas, so cover up before you head outdoors. When you return make sure to check for ticks on yourself, your children, and your pets. Those two simple things will go along way in preventing tick bites. “The most common tick species in the Interior Health region is the Wood Tick (Dermacentor andersoni), which is not known to carry the Lyme disease bacteria, said Dr. Silvina Mema, Medical Health Officer with Interior Health. “The Wood Tick can carry other diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever, although it is very rare. Some ticks also have toxins that can cause temporary muscle weakness and paralysis but the symptoms fade once the tick is removed.” The tick species that carries Lyme disease (Ixodes pacificus) is more common
in the coastal areas of B.C., but may also be present in low numbers in areas within Interior Health. Less than one per cent of Ixodes ticks in B.C. carry Lyme disease. In addition to fever, headache, and muscle pain, people infected with Lyme disease will often develop a rash that looks like a ‘bull’s eye’ target and expands from the site of the tick bite. Other precautions include: Walking on cleared trails when in tall grass or wooded areas. Wearing a hat, long sleeves, pants, and light-coloured clothing. Tucking pant legs into socks or boots. Applying insect repellent containing DEET on uncovered skin. Carefully checking clothing and scalp (covered or not) when leaving an area where ticks may live. Having a shower after returning from areas where ticks may live. To reduce ticks from entering your home and yard, try these steps: Keep your lawn short and remove any fallen leaves and weeds. Keep a buffer area such as wood-chip or gravel border between your lawn and wooded areas or stone walls. Any play equipment or play zones should be kept away from wooded areas. Trim tree branches to allow more sun-
light in your yard. Keep wood piles and bird feeders away from the house. Widen and maintain trails on your property. If you find a tick on yourself, a family member, or pet, wear gloves and gently remove it. Use needle-nose tweezers to gently grasp the tick close to the skin and pull the tick straight out without squeezing. After removal, clean the area with soap and water. If you have concerns or need assistance removing a tick, please contact your family doctor or visit a walk-in medical clinic.

Chopaka Rodeo riding into 51st year Review Staff
Organizers of the Chopaka Easter Rodeo hope to lasso another successful year of great weather, competition and attendance. This year marks the 51st for the long running rodeo. One of the organizer’s of the event Nancy Allison said the committee briefly discussed changing the date of the event because Easter is so early this year, but decided not to. “We wondered if we should delay it two weeks. We did that a couple years ago and it was nice on Easter Sunday and the Sunday after was terrible cold so the committee said ‘just keep it on Easter Sunday,” she said. The rodeo has long been held on Easter weekend to allow competitors and spectators to have an extra
day to stay with family friends and travel time. Competitors and spectators come from all over including Washington State and Alberta but mainly from central southern BC and the Lower Mainland. The main events for the one-day rodeo including saddle bronc, team roping, calf roping, ladies breakaway, ladies barrel racing and bull riding. This year’s junior events include steer riding, barrel racing and pee wee barrel racing. Special events are calf scramble for the 10 and under crowd and wild horse race. The gate opens at 12 p.m. on Easter Sunday. Admission is $10. The organizing committee is always looking for volunteers. Allison said about a week after the rodeo the committee meets and that provides an opportunity for new volunteers to come forward.
Cawston Hall looking for fresh ideas, volunteers Bob McAtamney For the Review
In 2015, only seven people attended the AGM for the Cawston Community hall Society. In 2016 we need three new board members to replace existing directors whose terms are over. Of course, they could run again, but it would certainly be nice to see some new and younger people on the board bringing fresh energy and new perspectives to the operation of the Community Hall. Many of the older generation have all participated as board members and probably feel that they have done their bit for the community. The hall is definitely a focal point of the community. It is a place where weddings, funerals, meetings, artist gatherings, plays, dances and many other social events take place. It needs a board of interested people to ensure that the hall continues to serve the community and continues to reflect the spirit of the community. Being on the board means attending four to five
board meetings a year and being involved in some aspect of the operation of the hall. It means helping organize events such as the annual fundraising dance. This year we are encouraging people to come to the AGM and to come early to socialize and discuss the operation of the hall. We are open to new models for running the hall especially in light of our declining revenue with the Lower Similkameen Indian Band having their own meeting facility. The band was a significant contributor to our revenue stream. We are looking for new ideas and new energy but the ideas should be well thought out and have some substance behind them. The meeting is Friday, March 18 at 7 p.m. at the hall. The social gathering is at 6:30 p.m. We hope to see a renewed interest from the community in the hall affairs and operation.

RDOS sponsored compost bin sale on till March 21
Until March 21 residents can pre-purchase RDOS approved compost bins from participating locations. Free composting workshops will be held in March and April. This year the FreeGarden Earth Compost Bin™ is available for $45 plus taxes. An attractively curved black container, the compost bin helps break down garden waste, leaves, uncooked fruits and vegetables. It is a great system for creating rich compost.
The Green Cone™, capable of breaking down cooked food waste and meat, will be sold for $109.85 plus taxes. This system is buried partially in the ground where it breaks down waste directly into the soil. Every few years the leftover slurry is removed and buried in a different section of your property. The Green Cone is not used to break down yard waste so is a great compliment to an existing compost bin. In Keremeos residents can pre-purchase bins from the Home Building Centre.

Being young and female are the biggest risk factors Recently B.C. Legislature, Andrew Weaver, MLA for Oak Bay - Gordon Head and Leader of the B.C. Green Party, tabled the Post-Secondary Sexual Violence Policies Act, a bill that aims to address the pervasive occurrence of sexualized violence plaguing universities and colleges in British Columbia. “It is estimated that one in four female university students will be sexually assaulted during the relatively short amount of time they spend on campus,” said Andrew Weaver. “It is unacceptable that we are not taking clearer steps as a Province to help create a safe environment for our students.” Sexualized violence is an issue that impacts all genders and all ages. Being young and female, however, are the biggest risk factors for being sexually assaulted. “The opportunity to succeed and thrive in university shouldn’t hinge on whether or not you are young, female and statistically likely to experience sexual violence,” said Weaver. “A staggering number of bright young women pursuing their academic ambitions are forced to deal with the threat of sexualized violence. It’s time for our government and universities to stand up and say enough is enough.” Weaver brought forward the Post-Secondary Sexual Violence Policies Act to create a legal responsibility for universities and colleges in British Columbia to develop and maintain policies that would provide education for students, support for victims, and work to prevent the occurrences of sexual violence. The act would allow University specific policies to be developed that would meet the needs of students, including education and protection, while working to create a safe environment for students to come forward to report a sexual assault. “The reality is that it is women who are most vulnerable at post-secondary institutions to being sexually assaulted or harassed, and that there simply isn’t the capacity for adequate prevention and support,” said Weaver. “While I chose International Women’s Day to table this bill, this is a societal issue and one that affects people of all gender identities. I hope our work will improve the safety of post-secondary experiences for everyone.”

Welcome to B.C., freeloaders As the B.C. government spends millions on an international brand campaign with the recycled slogan “Super, Natural B.C.,” another brand identity has spread across Canada. This one’s unintentional. It hit a new peak last week with the arrival of two young men from Saskatchewan, who were given one-way tickets to Vancouver and Victoria by typically burdened social services ministry staff in North Battleford. Sorting through the blizzard of soothing sound bites and sympathetic TV clips, a clearer picture emerges. In his initial interview with the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix, Charles Neil-Curly, at 23 the elder of the two, said he decided to head west when shelter staff told him his time had run out and he asked for bus tickets to B.C. “When they asked if I had a place to go, I just said, ‘yeah’,” Neil-Curly said. “I was going to the next homeless shelter anyway.” Transients and panhandlers aren’t the only ones who say whatever they figure will get them through another day. Politicians do it too.

We’ve bought the building so it’s hardly transitional. We’ve permanently done that.” Fast forward to March 11. The 38 Mount Edwards spaces are full, another 40 rooms and camping spaces at a former youth custody centre are almost full, and the province applies for a court order to clear the Victoria camp. A representative of the advocacy group Together Against Poverty Society goes on local radio to pledge legal support for the campers. How many are there now? At least 100, he says. Meanwhile in Maple Ridge, where the “homeless” problem is all fixed, Coleman has just extended temporary shelter funding and paid $5.5 million for a 61-room motel to fix it some more.

and they affect everyone. Remember to use water carefully. It is a limited resource. Support the Friends of the Similkameen in caring for the Similkameen. In this Review, we received an interesting mixture of local, community and B.C. news.
Especially page five regarding the Trans Pacific Partnership written by Art Martens. Apparently, our newly elected MP had not been fully briefed on this dangerous (TPP). Mr. Albas did send me some info that he had just recently received titled ‘Advantages of the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement for British Columbia.’ In my opinion, it appears that this so-called trade deal has been cobbled together without sub-

stantial Canadian input. It is another boon to international corporations; without any consideration to the needs and concerns of the Canadian Taxpayers who pay the bills. This dangerous situation demands public attention. Please everyone, write your Member of Parliament to stop the ratification of this very flawed and skewed agreement. Flo Winfrey Cawston
Similkameen farm jobs offer opportunity, inspiration to youth To the Editor: As we, the next generation gain experience with age, there are a few of us that wish to refine goals in life as we naturally mature. Some of us started off with little to nothing. No interest in going to school (mind the affordability), no interest in finding/acquiring a career in the city or suburbs and with no opportunity or interest in carrying on the family business. Some of us just decided to pick cherries. We were looking to have a good time and make a few bucks without really knowing where that could lead. Some pickers (or should I use the more politically correct term - harvesters), pick for the summer and then head back to school, work, or their home country in the fall/winter, whilst others, like some of us Harvest Bun folk, have decided to hunker down and make a life here in the Similkameen as the opportunity for work in agriculture is abundant and at times, therapeutic, and at other times, financially fruitful. A standard goal for a harvester is to make and save for winter’s hibernation money. Jobs available in farming pre and post harvest? There are ads in the newspaper and in job search B.C. for full-time farm work starting sometime between February and April and last until November. The jobs start at 40 hours a week (sometimes up to 60), pay minimum wage and include duties such as, picking, pruning, thinning, packing and general farm labour. These jobs are usually available on farms that focus on monoculture including cherries and apples, peaches and pears, or grapes and grapes. Farmers must have the passion of eating their crop, as it is a key variable of why farmers choose to grow certain crops, the other variable is how much money can one yield per acre with which crop. Farming is a beyond full-time job, but besides it being a job, why do people farm? Refining what has inspired me in the Similkameen is not only the beautiful weather that allows for a variety of crops to be grown, but the farmer that grows a sufficient amount of crop to fridge and freeze so that he
can eat year-round and who learns to experiment in growing organically. That farmer wants to teach the next generation how to farm. A goal coming to a solid fruition (I hope more and more in this generation), is wanting to farm, to self sustain, to eat well, and be a part of or start a family. It’s quite a decision to make, to stray away from food that has been GMO/conventionally grown, or food containing preservatives, or junk food that contains sugar, gluten, citric acid. Generally speaking, the everyday effort in eating healthier comes with supporting your local farmer. Speaking with Chris Mathieson only months after moving to Keremeos, he mentioned to me a project where he is to make a cheese burger from scratch, slaughter the cow, milk the goat, harvest mustard seed for mustard, and wheat to make a bun. As he planted that seed with us, we allow ourselves to see the opportunity the universe gives us, to water it a little bit each day, where we come to the further decision that it is something I wish to work for in my life. The drive to grow food from scratch, may it equal out to a healthy, holistic lifestyle of living. Lucky enough I have been (as we create our own luck) to meet a special someone here in the Similkameen that I wish to spend my life with, as we share the mutual goal of starting a family, working as much as humanly possible, happily, doing work we enjoy and to grow a garden. One day perhaps we may have our own farm. Some of the Harvest Bun folk have moved on from the community house located in the heart of Keremeos and are into this year’s chapter. We’re living life with what we can afford, as harvesters/farm labourers, with goals to grow, work as much as need be but not for minimum wage, 60 hours a week. We yearn to learn how to save/bank money so that in the end we can have our own chunk of land where we can grow the fruit and vegetables of our labour so that we can dine finely in the sunshine of the Valley of the three winds.

Valley old-timer recalls hockey games and the Klan Art Martens livingsignificantly.ca
Bob Mullin was waiting on the porch when Linda and I arrived at his home on the outskirts of Princeton. He reached out a big hand and said, “Hi, I’m Dinny.” In the dining room, which overlooks the Similkameen River, his wife Beryl set steaming cups of coffee before us. A wood stove in the corner provided a cozy warmth. I began by asking Dinny for the story behind what I felt was an intriguing nickname. He laughed. “My parents didn’t know I was born with impaired hearing,” he replied. “Often when my Dad asked me a question, I didn’t hear him, so I didn’t answer. He thought I wasn’t paying attention so he began calling me Dinny Dimwit, after a cartoon character.” For many the inability to understand well is a debilitating impediment in social and employment situations. It might have sidelined him in the game of life. Had Dinny been less resolute and resilient, he could easily have joined the company of the malcontented when he left school without graduating. Instead, he carried on as though the impairment wasn’t a concern. “My first job was at Burr’s Motors,” he said. “The Ku Klux Klan was active here at that time and the owner was a member.” For a moment he seemed to return in his mind to those early days, then added, “They burned a cross in town.” I was to discover that Dinny delights in sharing from his storehouse of tantalizing facts and events from the past. He pointed across the river and said, “that’s where Bill Miner’s cabin was. He’d ride from there in the morning and rob a train. By evening he was back. My mom said he was a hell of a dancer.” Dinny and Beryl met at a school dance in Coalmont, the beginning of a life long love affair. “It was minus 32 Fahrenheit
the day we were married 60 years ago,” Beryl recalled. Dinny reflected for a moment, seemingly surprised at the number of years. He smiled and said “I didn’t think I’d last this long.” Endowed with the wide shouldered frame of a prairie wheat farmer, his early ambition was to join the provincial police. Alert, strong and thoughtful, he’d certainly have been an asset to the force, but it didn’t happen. “I was told I wouldn’t get in because of the hearing impairment,” he said. He refused to be discouraged though and got a job at the Granby Power Plant. When it closed, he worked for the local sawmill. He understood that a community will be strong only if people accept responsibility and participate. “I got my industrial first aid ticket and joined the volunteer fire department,” he told us. “They gave us $3 a month. Most of us turned that back in to buy equipment. Sometimes I drove the ambulance. We did whatever was needed.” Unlike today, those were not times when people could easily buy virtually everything they deemed a necessity. Dinny and his friends joined a local hockey team and played against other towns. “For padding we used Sears and Eatons catalogues,” he said. “We cut strips of tire tubing to hold them in place. No one owned a helmet.” His usual position was centre. Although goalie wasn’t a position he cared for, he became net minder if necessary. Now 84, he’s an ardent Canuck fan. “Right now he’s a little mad at them,” Beryl confided. “They aren’t winning a lot.” They weren’t afraid of challenges. “We bought a 200 acre ranch 3 miles along the Merritt road,” Dinny said. “We ran 50 head of cattle. Often while I was at work, Beryl rode the range. It got to be too much though, working and ranching. A guy told me once the only thing stupider than a cow is the per-

son who owns it. We sold the ranch.” By the time our conversation drew to a close, I concluded Dinny and Beryl have achieved an enviable camaraderie and zest for life. She makes borscht and regularly plays bridge. He plays crib and each Tuesday meets for coffee with former hockey pals at
the Sandman Inn. From their comfortable dining room they can observe an eagle building its nest or children tubing on the river. He now has hearing aids and his father would certainly agree “Dinny Dimwit” has become surprisingly intelligent.
grow different vegetables and boasts the only winterized greenhouse meaning customers are still eating some locally grown produce even in the depths of winter. Some heartier vegetables started in the greenhouse were set to be planted this week or in the coming week.
“We do things a little differently here and it works,” he said. “It isn’t a bad thing to be a little behind. If things are too early by the time people can get away when the kids are off school cherries might be over for a lot of places. But, we could still have some,” Wurz said with a smile.
Advantage seems equal for farmers of early or later crops

the microclimate difference. The four acres of planted farm at Tree to Me sees about four hours fewer daylight hours because of the nearby mountain to the east. “In the early morning we lose about two hours and we lose two hours at night,” Wurz said. “There’s a lot more wind here too. We’re built between two mountain ranges.” Because of those factors and others blooming of the fruit baring trees happens a little later than the majority of other farms and the risk of frost can be greater. Last year Tree to Me suffered significant apricot losses. Apricots are generally the first fruit baring trees to bloom.
The farm also slopes down and the grade causes a degree or two temperature change between the different elevations. “We’ve spent a lot of time learning how to work the land,” he said. Wurz said the Tree to Me farm staff has been working over the winter to

Budget, defining organic, water act tops list for Larson Linda Larson MLA, Boundary-Similkameen
This is a busy time in Victoria with budget estimates being discussed and bills being introduced in the Legislature almost daily. I will touch on another two that have interest for the BoundarySimilkameen: Bill 11, the Food and Agricultural Products Classification Act, replaces the Food Products Standards Act, the Agri-food Choice and Quality Act and the Agricultural Produce Grading Act eliminating a lot of red tape. It’s designed to create a framework to regulate the term “organic” and also allows for new classifications of wine like the appellation of origin. Certified Organic The Associations of B.C. are supportive
of new regulations that will give consumers confidence in the “certified organic” labelling. We have some wonderful organic growers in our region who have all been recognized for excellence by their peers provincially and federally. Klippers Organics and Harker’s Organics, both in Cawston, and Covert Farms in Oliver are to be commended for their passion for growing organically and sustainably. The first phase of regulations for the new Water Sustainability Act were brought into force on Feb. 29. The WSA updates and replaces the previous Water Act bringing in a number of changes for existing and new surface and groundwater users. Much of the Water Act has been brought into the WSA and existing surface water rights granted under the old Water Act will continue with no impact, except in extreme drought conditions. Domestic well owners who use water for their household, garden and domestic animals are exempt from licensing and paying provincial water fees and rentals. However we encourage domestic well users to register

their well at FrontCounterBC so that their source can be protected. Aquatic Ecosystems are further protected with expanded prohibitions on dumping debris into streams and aquifers. *** Many community organizations throughout the riding receive gaming grants to help with their programs and services. Most recently, South Okanagan Integrated Community Services Society received $25,000 for five various programs; Scouts Canada - 1st Oliver, $4,000; and the Lower Similkameen Community Services in Keremeos, $20,500. These and many other organizations do amazing work in their communities. In the past two years, supported by my office, just under $8 million has been received in this riding through a multitude of grant programs managed by the province, supporting all areas of our society. And thanks to our government’s fiscal discipline and balanced budget, the Ministry of Education is providing 30 public school districts each with a $5,000 grant to help them develop opportunities to sup-
port students who want to pursue skills and trades training, and career development. I’m happy to report that applications from both School District 51 (Boundary) and School District 53 (Okanagan Similkameen) have been approved. *** The Gold Rush Exhibit that was at the Royal B.C. Museum last year will be touring the province. If your community is interested in hosting the display, please let me know and I will try to get you on the list. Almost all of the South Okanagan, Boundary and Similkameen were impacted by the gold rush in the late 1800s and the talk of “gold” still interests us all. *** Thank you to all who sent in ideas for the Red Tape Reduction consultation. An event was held in the legislature to recognize some of those who sent in ideas and to talk about some significant changes that have already happened. The changes made to simplifying registration for organ donation have greatly increased the list of potential donors, and as a result, the
number of transplants in B.C. has increased significantly. The ability for retiring veterans to transfer their driving certification directly into our system has the Teamsters able to access muchneeded transport drivers. These are just two examples of red tape reduction that have a positive impact on British Columbians. The consultation was so successful it will continue, and you can input your suggestions at any time at: https://interceptum.com/s/en/ RedTapeReduction *** Spring is definitely here, enjoy the milder weather and hopefully the sunshine.

Benefits of Milk Thistle
Milk Thistle has been used medicinally for thousands of years and it stands out for its ability to gently protect the liver against many toxins, there fore it is called “liver’s protective powerhouse.” The seeds of milk thistle (also known as St Mary’s thistle) contain a group of antioxidant compounds collectively to the name silymarin. Your liver and gallbladder are vital for your digestive and detoxification process. In the 1960s, interest in milk thistle was rekindled when researchers isolated a complex of chemicals from the herb’s seeds. A combination of flavonoligans believed to be responsible for the hepatic activity, was first isolated from the ripe seeds. Milk thistle is a clear example in which scientific investigation has confirmed the historical use of a herbal product. Compounds in milk thistle protect liver cells from damage caused by alcohol, acetaminophen and some form of hepatitis and can also be used to prevent or treat effects of fatty foods, liver damage from toxic exposure, chronic liver disease, certain types of liver cirrhosis, for headaches and skin problems associated with poor function. Some researchers have suggested that milk thistle may also be useful in the management of psoriasis. Adverse effects of silymarin appear to be very rare. Because it increases bile flow, it my cause mild diarrhea in some individuals. Studies from Europe demonstrate that milk thistle extract extends lives, improves liver function, and relieves symptoms associated with cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, jaundice and poisoning No contraindications are associated with this herb, even in larger doses. Despite its safety, individuals who have liver disease or are treated for cancer should discuss the use of any dietary supplement with their health care provider! It is not my intention to make specific claims. Any attempt to diagnose, prevent or treat illness should go under the direction of your health care provider.

National Poison Prevention Week in Canada is March 17 to 23. It’s a good time to check your home to see how you store dangerous chemicals and cleaning solutions. Look at your medication storage too. Ensure all these products are kept out of reach of children and educate your older children about the signs of poisoning and have them help you keep younger children safe. In Canada, 50% of pregnancies are unplanned. Many women aren’t aware of emergency contraception options. These are available from your pharmacist who can explain how to use them. If used within 24 hours of unprotected sex, these products can reduce the risk of pregnancy by 95%. Speaking of pregnancy, it is well-known that women who plan to get pregnant should start taking a supplement containing folic acid (at least 0.4mg daily). This product will prevent neural tube defects in the brain and spinal cord. It has been suggested that all sexually active women take folic acid in case of any unplanned pregnancy. Some eye drops have to be shaken before each use to get the proper dose. Pull the lower eyelid down forming a small pouch in which to put the drop. After instilling the drop, gently close the eyes for 30 seconds while pressing the bridge of the nose so the drop doesn’t move out of the eye through the tear duct. Our pharmacists would like you to get the most from your medications. Talk to us.

Fines increasing for forest fire violations Tom Fletcher Black Press
The pilot of a recreational drone that forced waterbombers from smoke-filled skies around Oliver last summer was never located, but future offenders who impede forest firefighters will face higher fines. Fines for 19 offences under the Wildfire Act, including interfering with wildfire protection efforts, are being increased to among the highest in Canada, Forests Minister Steve Thomson said Thursday. The fine for failing to comply with fire restrictions such as campfire bans will increase from $345 to $1,150. A new penalty of failing to comply with a stop-work order made because of fire risk will carry a maximum penalty of $100,000 and one year in prison. Thomson said there are “constitutional” issues with a proposal to seize vehicles from people who toss cigarette butts out the window while driving, but the province is still considering its options.
A proposal to ban people from B.C. parks if they violate campfire restrictions is also being considered, but is not included in the current changes. Thomson said the legislation will redefine “interference” with firefighters so it doesn’t mean intentional interference. That would apply to boaters who blocked air tankers Regular Showtimes from filling with water on Okanagan Lake, as well as the drone pilot who caused aircraft to Sun. – Mon. – Tues. – Thurs…7:30 p.m. land as vineyards,Enjoy your evening out, taking homes and a school around Fri. – Sat………….……….7:00 & 9:00 p.m. Oliver were threatened by fire.

Crackdown on passing school bus Review publisher up for BC Black Press
The B.C. government is preparing to increase penalties for drivers who pass school buses while children are getting on or off. “We’ve had 14 children injured, thankfully none killed, in the last five years,” said Transportation Minister Todd Stone. “There are still far too many motorists who are not getting the message of just how important it is to slow down in school zones and certainly not pass a school bus when the lights are flashing.” Stone said school districts and local governments have been calling for increased penalties. Police in

In Ontario, a first offence of passing a school bus results in a fine of $400 to $2,000 and six demerit points, and a second within five years can result in a fine of up to $4,000 and up to six months in jail. New Brunswick has a $1,000 fine and loss of driver’s licence for every school bus offence.
