Blessings for furry friends Katie Davis News Reporter Proud pet owners gathered in homage to their beloved pets as St. George’s Anglican church in Stettler held it’s first ever animal service of blessing on Saturday, October 5. The first hosting of such an event at the Church was attended by a small but enthusiastic group of people and animals; including Golden Retriever Abby, Blue Tick Heeler Cross Scooter and pensive cat Carl and their respective families. Pastor Carolyn Langford said she’d always wished to hold the event but was
not typically able to fit the unique service into her busy fall schedule. Due to October being a symbolic month for animal blessing, she wished to stand true to a specific day of worship. “The feast of St. Francis, who is noted for his relationship with animals, is the fourth of October [and this date] is usually when these blessings occur,” Pastor Langford says. “Usually the feast has crept up on me too quickly, but this year I’ve been thinking about it since the spring, so I sort of had it blocked out in my mind as something I’ve always wanted to do.” Turn to We ask, Pg 19

well as part of the ensemble in the play. The whirlwind experience began when the Brigleys heard of the auditions while they happened to be in Edmonton where the trials were being held. “I asked Joe if he was interested, and he said ‘yes!’” says mom Brenda Brigley, “so he went to the audition and three days later he got the part.” Turn to Rehearsals, Pg 18

CORONATION TOWN COUNCIL
New procedural bylaw, at recommendation of Ministerial Inspection Report Katie Davis News Reporter Coronation Town Council began promptly at 7 pm by adding a ‘six o’clock meeting’ as an in-camera session on Tuesday, October 8, 2013. Motion to accept agenda with addition was carried.
Procedural bylaw First item on agenda was 6a, procedural bylaw of council and council committees 2013-618. This was a new procedural bylaw to replace bylaw 2012-599, as per recommendation #24 of the Ministerial Inspection Report. Since the last meeting there were two readings on the bylaw, and a third and final reading was motioned. Councillor Jackie Brigley voiced at this interval that further discussion of the bylaw should be something that the next council deals with, given that “at least” two more council members would be elected at that time. “I think there’s some items in there worth discussing,” Councillor Brigley said, in reference to the current bylaw. She cited item 9.1 as an item she would like to see return to what it used to be; whereby the person with the most votes was elected Mayor, and second most votes Deputy Mayor. The current bylaw notes that Council appoints Deputy Mayor for one-year period at the organizational meeting. There was some questioning by members of Council as to when this was in effect; Councillor Brigley did not know the
exact numerical designation of the previous bylaw. “But I know there definitely was a bylaw when this town first stopped nominating running for Mayor,” she said, “and the person with the most votes was [elected] the Mayor, and the second most votes was the Deputy Mayor.” Brigley also said that bylaw 22.3 (procedural guidelines for meetings requiring notice) and 24.17 (electronic copy of the Agenda for the public) should be discussed when new members arrive. “I think if somebody comes in and doesn’t have access to the [online copy of the Agenda] . I think there should be an option for them to get a paper copy… I don’t think it should just be an [online copy],” Brigley said, “not everybody has access to that; some seniors don’t use it.” Deputy Mayor Bonnie Danylyshen noted that she thought making a decision on the bylaw was what was necessary before the election, due to the lack of a procedural bylaw at present. CAO Sandra Kulyk spoke up to clarify the issue. “As part of the municipal inspection the procedural bylaw was identified as having had issues and gaps, and we actually were in a period where had two bylaws that were both effected and that contradicted each-other so, for a period of time, both of those procedural bylaws were… repealed,” she said, “so at this point in time Council has no procedural bylaw.” Kulyk noted that in passing of the bylaw at issue, if the next elected council wished to change anything they could with an
amending bylaw. “But at this time at least you would be leaving your new council with the legacy of a bylaw to consider,” she said. Ultimately Mayor Dawna Elliott motioned for third reading of the bylaw,
which Councillor Brigley asked to be recorded. Ultimately the vote was that “Procedural bylaw Councillor and Council committee 2013 is hereby inactive,” said Mayor Elliott. Turn to No changes, Pg 4

Plants make food in a process called photosynthesis. During summer, plants take water up from their roots to their leaves. They absorb carbon dioxide from the air. These combine to make chlorophyll which makes plant leaves green.
Find the answer in the fall leaf border! Start here. Then read every other letter as you move clockwise around the border.
Photosynthesis slows in fall as winter approaches. Trees and plants live off their stored food. The green chlorophyll disappears leaving red, orange and yellow leaves. The dry, brittle leaves soon drop from trees with the help of crisp autumn breezes.

Electricity retail purchase saves money Brenda Schimke News Journalist The estimated annual savings accruing to the Town of Stettler upon signing a five-year contract with Enmax for electricity is $150,000, it was noted at their regular meeting on October 2, 2013. The new contract will charge $0.58 per kilowatt hour, versus the current contract at $0.81. Although very pleased, Assistant CAO, Greg Switensky cautioned councillors. Transmission, distribution and administration fees associated with electricity delivery continue to increase significantly each year and will definitely offset a portion of the savings realized from the retail purchase side.
Parkland Regional Library Councillors approved renewing their membership with the Parkland Regional Library in the amount of $7.50 per capita. The Parkland Regional Library has member libraries in 61 villages, towns and municipalities.
Director of Parks and Leisure Services was able to put together a successful proposal to secure a $75,000 Community Facilities Enhancement Program (EFEP) grant for the Skateboard Park. The maximum grant available was $125,000. In a telephone interview Fraser said they had now raised just under $200,000 with a goal of $400,000. “When we do our different fundraisers, we always have lots of kids and parents who help out,� said Fraser, “They’re fantastic!� The next major fundraiser is the second annual dinner and dance in December. “If things progress as they have, we’re hoping to break ground as soon as the snow melts,� said Fraser. Although this is not a town initiative, Assistant CAO Greg Switensky was very encouraged that the Association now has a critical mass of funds and hopefully that will help push fund
raising over the top. “It’s volunteers like Heidi Fraser, who put in hours of volunteer time, that need to get the credit,� said Switensky.
Airport operations Chairman Garry Fix reported to the Stettler Town and County Airport Committee board meeting on September 6 that he had caught a truck on the runway. He was able to speak to the driver about the legalities of being there. Melissa Robbins, Director of Operations for the Town of Stettler advised that signs have been ordered and will be installed soon. One sign will stand at the main entrance and one at the pedestrian entrance. Each sign will notify the public that access to the runway is prohibited and the fine amounts will also be stated. Metro Paving will be completing repairs to the Stettler Airport tarmac this fall.

Red Deer Niall Sharpe of Red Deer was arrested and changed with Fraud over $5000, forgery and theft over $5000 on Monday, September 30. RCMP members from the Three Hills Detachment arrested and changed the 52 year-old after a thorough 2 1/2 month investigation led to allegations that Sharpe personally obtained money, goods and services by way of forgery, fraud and theft in an amount over $100,000 from his then employer, Kneehill County. At the time of the alleged offences, Sharpe held the position of Emergency Services Officer; he was a six year employee and resigned from the position in June of 2013. RCMP members also executed a search warrant on October 1, 2013 on Sharpe’s home located in Red Deer. A number of items alleged to be obtained by crime were seized and removed from the property. Sharpe was released from custody by a Justice of the Peace and is scheduled to appear in Drumheller Provincial Court on November 6, 2013 to answer to the charges.

Funding agreement The Family and Community Support Services Funding Agreement for January 1 to December 31, 2014 was presented for Council’s approval. No changes were made to the approved grant funding, and the motion was carried.
Subdivision electrical servicing A proposal and quote presented by ATCO Electric was submitted to council. It outlined a three-phase power provision plan for the future Techmation lot. “[ATCO Electric] will be bringing power up from the existing power grid that basically comes up from Highway 12, bisecting that large triangular piece of land… almost where the old Roundhouse was” said CAO Kulyk, in reference to a diagram presented. “We’ll bring in the new power service from that point to the east, and poles will be set up on the northernmost boundary of the new Shirley McClellan Water Commission right-ofway.” Kulyk also noted that the plan made allowances for shared pole space with Telus, as discussed with the communications company. It was noted in the Request for Decision document that ATCO would require the estimated cost of construction be prepaid, and that following the completion of the work any variance would be either refunded or invoiced to the Town. The estimated customer cost was $33,928 plus tax. “Has that slightly gone up to 35-something?” asked Mayor Elliott, “because I signed a cheque for $35,000.” Elliott was thus informed by Kulyk that the price she was referring to would be tax inclusive. Motion to accept proposal in full was carried.

Truck sale Councillor Brett Alderdice excused himself from the agenda item Offer to Purchase Three Ton Truck, as Home Hardware made the offer to purchase the truck and Alderdice was an employee there. The truck at offer was a 1983 Chevrolet three-ton cab and chassis, purchased new by the Town in 1984 for $23,606. It is now fully depreciated; the reserve bid on the truck, set by Council in December 2012 was $4,000. Some discussion ensued as to the offer of $600 for the truck - Councillor Brigley thought this was too little given the truck was still in working order. “At this point it is not providing [the Town] with serviceable use,” Kulyk said. Ultimately Councillor Eugene Rovensky made a motion to present a counter offer of $1,000.

In a press release sent October 4, 2013 the County of Stettler responded in turn to the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy request submitted by the Wildrose Opposition party late September, 2013. The initial request was to examine documents that potentially implied partisan political contributions during County time. The October 4 press release states that ‘thorough investigation’ was conducted in the wake of the allegations made by the Wildrose Party, which included use of employee time to create a partisan Facebook page and put up election signs. The release says that these accusations were found to be false. “There was no evidence to suggest that either of those activities have or are currently taking place,” says County of Stettler CAO Tim Fox, “They also made allegations that we have stopped using email, which is also a baseless accusation. We rely on email to keep our office running productively and efficiently.” In the Press Release it was confirmed that there were instances prior to 2009 where the County paid for Councillors or staff to attend politically-connected events. “The County Council at that time was trying to build relationships that have benefited our community in many ways including the rural water distribution system, Fenn Road and other important community infrastructure,” County Reeve Wayne Nixon says. The total amount paid out for such attendance over the last decade was just over $3440 for Councillors and $3100 for staff, states the release.

OPINION
Just vote By-laws and By-law enforcement, utility rates and services, town property expansion, economic development, taxes, school programs and funding and school closures. These are just a few of the issues the municipal council candidates and school boards are talking about. But what about you? • What do you say are the biggest issues facing your community? • What should the new council be focusing on over the next four years? • The candidates need to hear from you. If there is ever a time the candidates are willing to listen to what you have to say, this is it! From now until October 21, winning your vote is all they are focused on. Voice your comments and opinions now. The Stettler Board of Trade and the Coronation Chamber of Commerce are both holding Candidate Forums providing an opportunity for not just the candidates to express their reasons for letting their name stand but also for you, the voting public, to question them on issues that you believe to be important. The Coronation Forum is on Tuesday, October 15 at the Lion’s Rec Centre with 11 candidates running for seven positions. The Clearview School Forum is Tuesday, October 15 at the Stettler Community Hall with one Ward for the Town of Stettler and two Wards surrounding Stettler; one in the communities of Erskine North and the second Ward is Botha, Gadsby and Byemoor area. The Town of Stettler Forum for their councillors is on Wednesday, October 16 with 11 candidates and the County of Stettler Forum with five Wards holding elections will be held on Thursday, October 17. See ads in this newspaper for places and times for these four forums. Then take the time to vote on Monday, October 21. Some say, there’s not enough people running that I want to vote for? So why take the time to vote? On a ballot of 11 names for seven positions, for example, it is not necessary to choose seven people. You can vote for the one, or two, or three people who you believe to be worthy of your vote. Just vote! That’s the all important message. Vote, it matters who runs governments, whether municipal, provincial or federal - it matters!

A bad year for the Conservatives Dear Editor, It’s been a bad year for the Conservatives. Five members of the government’s caucus have left while under investigation or facing outright charges. These five have something else in common: they were all appointed or promoted by Prime Minister Stephen
Harper. After eight long years in power this record raises unsettling questions about the judgement of our Prime Minister. Let’s consider the facts: Mr. Harper rode into office promising an accountable and ethical government. Turn to It doesn’t, Pg 9
VIEWPOINT
Alberta needs private flood insurance Following the disastrous floods in southern Alberta this summer the province is holding a Flood Mitigation Symposium. The goal is to gather ideas on how to move forward to avoid in the future both the physical and financial disaster that flooding brings. On the agenda is new and improved infrastructure to mitigate the actual damage caused by floods, but also insurance to minimize the financial impact in the future. The decisions taken around flood insurance have the potential to be incredibly positive for both taxpayers and property owners, or ruinous for both. There is a (potentially) right way to do flood insurance, and there is a wrong way. Case in point: the United States’ National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). While well intended, the U.S. program has devolved into a massive wealth transfer scheme, encouraging and subsidizing living in high-risk areas. The U.S. created the NFIP in 1938 after private insurers withdrew from the market following the 1927 Mississippi floods. This made the U.S. taxpayer the primary flood insurance provider for homeowners and small businesses, although still delivered by private firms. If a firm couldn’t handle the costs, Uncle Sam would always be there with a bag of bailout money in hand. “Mandatory” insurance in the U.S. has largely been a failure in its current form. The “mandatory” part of the program was often not enforced by the government, and more often ignored by homeowners. People systemically

underestimate risk and opt not to purchase flood insurance in the U.S., even though taxpayers heavily subsidize it. Senior players in Canada’s insurance industry told the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) that the designation of Special Flood Hazard Areas (requiring mandatory insurance) is highly politicized, as U.S. Congressmen in flood-prone areas lobby to redraw maps to include areas with little-to-no risk of flooding in order to ease the premiums of those actually at risk. According to the US-based CATO institute, “Government policies are the cause of, not the cure for, the limited supply and narrow scope of private sector disaster insurance.” This may be entirely true, but the status quo in Canada and Alberta is also unacceptable. That is, that homeowners and taxpayers alike have no protection whatsoever. As it stands, government de-facto insures property (through flood assistance payments) without collecting premiums. Insurance is the only option available to externalize the costs of floods, but it is difficult to make it available in a way that will not devolve into the disaster that is the American program of governmentbacked private insurers, or the even more risky prospect of a directly government-run program. There is no watertight solution, but the best prospect of successfully externalizing flood costs lies with encouraging the creation of a self-sufficient, private insurance market. The first step in the creation of any market is to have demand for a

product. To start, at-risk property owners should be required to purchase flood insurance. The best way to safeguard against U.S.-style gerrymandering in who must have insurance is to only require insurance for properties that have made claims under the Disaster Recovery Program (DRP). If you’ve made a claim for assistance, you need insurance. Like automobile insurance, making a product mandatory creates a market where one would otherwise not exist. Premiums should be determined strictly by actuarial calculations that reflect risk, not political considerations. For some homeowners, premiums that reflect the full risk will be too great to bear. For these homeowners, additional relocation assistance should be provided by the government. Perhaps the single greatest factor depressing demand for private flood insurance is, as the CATO Institute noted, that government disaster aid provides a “free” substitute.” At this point, we enter a “chicken-and-egg” argument: Is there no insurance because of government aid, or do we need aid because there is no insurance? There will be no simple or foolproof way forward, but we know that a new government bureaucracy following the American model will leave taxpayers holding the bag next time. Hopefully the Premier can squeeze some good ideas out of the brains at the Flood Mitigation Symposium. Derek Fildebrandt, Alberta Director, Canadian Taxpayers Federation

These forums will allow the tax payers the opportunity to pose questions to those running for office to clarify what kind of leadership they intend to provide. Proper leadership allows the constituents to manage them, rather than them managing the constituents.

CLEARVIEW PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Student enrollment increases Clearview Public Schools has an overall increase in student enrolments this year after the school division finalized their September 30, 2013 student counts. The school saw a 12 student increase to projections done last spring and a 21 student increase over last year. This translates to a one per cent increase for the division. The largest increase was in the pre-kindergarten programming, or Early Learning program. Starting with a spring projection of 15 students based on last year’s enrolments, the division actually enrolled 39 students. The school division’s Early Learning program is an educational program provided for those students with unique needs who require additional supports before beginning kindergarten. Coronation School saw the largest increase in student enrolments, with a year-to-year increase of 21 students, or seven per cent. These increases have been attributed to students from the nearby Consort community, located outside of the division, coming to Coronation School as a school of choice, and new businesses in the area that are bringing in new families. The school division did not see the growth hoped for in the Stettler Outreach School, which originally projected 61 students, and instead largely maintained their enrolments from last year at 35 students. Outreach enrolments typically
continue to grow and increase throughout the year, and the school is optimistic that they will meet their projections by year end.
Tentative agreement reached The respective negotiation committees for the Board of Trustees and the Alberta Teachers Association reached a tentative local agreement on a new contract that will be effective retroactively to September 1, 2012 and ends August 31, 2016. Clearview Public School teachers already received a province-wide framework agreement, which will see a 1.34 per cent salary increase in 2014 and a two per cent increase in 2015. The province has also committed to providing teachers with a one-time one per cent lump sum payment in 2015. As part of the process, the provincial agreement included the commitment for the school division to provide an additional 0.5 per cent increase in total monetary compensation in years three and four of the contract. The teachers are scheduled for a ratification vote on October 15, 2013, and the Board of Trustees will meet on October 17 to formally approve the agreement. Clearview Public Schools has already finalized bargaining with their support staffing groups for the next several years.

Parkland Library “most bang for the buck” Brenda Schimke News Journalist The Parkland Regional Library (PRL) board approved the 2014 budget at its regular Board meeting on September 5, 2013. The increase to the 61 member libraries was kept to three per cent. PRL’S most important strategy at present is to devise a sustainability plan to ensure the continued purchase of computers; to provide for computer and software support; and to support and maintain member library’s SuperNet Customer Edge Devices (CEDs). “We don’t have a lot of wiggle room in our budget and when push came to shove,” said PRL’s Director, Ronald Sheppard in a telephone interview. “A slightly higher number of member library staff and board members supported devising a sustainability plan to ensure the continued bulk purchase of computers,” he said.
To have $75,000 per year available for computer purchases, the budget reduced the book allotment in 2014 by $0.15 per capita to generate $30,000. The remaining $45,000 would come from the Technology Reserve. It was further agreed that another $0.15 per capita book allotment would be reduced in the 2015 budget year to offset computer purchases, if necessary. Every year, libraries were not spending all their book allotments. “Because of standardized equipment and licensing of software, two IT employees are able to support over 500 computers,” said Sheppard, “bulk purchases have allowed for huge cost savings which enables more money to stay within the community libraries.” “Efficiency saves so this is where we could get the most ‘bang for the buck’!” he added.

Fire Prevention October 6 to 12, 2013
Week
PREVENTION CAN SAVE LIVES
Hanna Fire Chief’s Message 2013 2013 has once again been a busy year for the Hanna Fire Department. The incident volume started out in January at a higher than normal pace and has continued that trend right through to the end of September. The department has been keep busy with 70 incidents happening from January 1 to October 1. During the past year regional training has continued to be a priority with two different firefighter courses being offered. The department had many members in both of the courses. The theme this year for fire prevention week is “Prevent Kitchen Fires” Cooking fires are the number one cause of residential fires in Alberta and are a leading cause of fire injuries and deaths in the province. The theme this year should remind everyone of the dangers involved in home cooking and that cooking fires, injuries and deaths are preventable. Stay in the kitchen when
you are frying or grilling food. If you must leave the room then turn off the stove. Keep your cooking areas clear of combustible materials. Every family should take the time to create a fire escape plan and to practice it a couple of times during Fire Prevention Week. Everyone should test their smoke alarms and replace the batteries at least once a year. Statistics have shown that a working S Smoke Alarm cuts your chances o of dying in a fire in half. Smoke alarms should also b be replaced every ten y years. I would ask all the citizens of Hanna and the surrounding area to take the time to inspect their homes carefully for fire and injury hazards. Also please remember that in the Hanna area you need only to call 911 to contact the RCMP, Ambulance or the Fire Department. The Hanna firefighters have already been going door to door selling the 2014 Fire Within calendars and will be continuing to do so
for the remainder of the month. This is the major annual fundraising project of the Hanna Firefighters Association, with all of the profit staying in the local community. Please feel free to ask the members any questions you may have about fire safety or fire prevention. I would like to thank the 28 members of the Fire Department who respond to incidents at any time day or night. A special thank you to the member`s spouses who are always so supportive. My appreciation to the member`s employers who allow the firefighters to leave work with no notice. I would also like to thank the Town of Hanna administration for the support the department receives in the day to day operations, and the Hanna Town Thank you to all the past Council and Special Areas and present fire department Board for their continued members. A special thanks support. David Mohl to the employers who make Fire Chief, Town of Hanna

it possible for the firefighters to respond to any emergency on a moment’s notice. Also thank you to the rural responders who have helped in the battling of rural fires.

Abby seems to look up and smile as Pastor Carolyn Langford speaks of animal blessings on Saturday, October 5.
We ask God’s blessings Cont’d from Pg 1 She says the service is geared toward giving thanks to all animals in creation, with a special emphasis on the animals taken in as family. “We ask God’s blessings of the animals,” she says of the service, “the blessings will ask for health and wellness.” Pet owners wishing a special benediction for their animal, if in ill health or needing extra care, can come to Pastor Langford after the initial service. “They can bring each animal to me and we will put our hand on the cage or them, and askGod’s blessings specifically for that animal,” she says. Pastor Langford notes that

blessings for animals are significant due to the integral role of pets in family holism. “I think it’s important [to bless pets] because they are part of God’s creation, all of the animals, and when you talk about pets in particular, they play a very, very significant role in peoples lives,” she says. She imparts that the service acts as a way of acknowledging the significance of the animals. “We would always have a care and concern around animals but our pets are even more precious than that,” she says, “coming to a service is a way of acknowledging that preciousness.”

Beef Talk - Six steps to placing premium calves that excel on the market By Kris Ringwall, Beef Specialist, North Dakota State University Extension Service What makes a premium calf? There are six steps to placing premium calves that excel on the market: superior genetics, sound management, preconditioning, tag identification and certification, plus a good marketing strategy. The order of the steps is not as important as doing the steps. The first point is superior genetics. Calves are a product of a producer’s genetic program. The days have long passed when producers simply eyeball and guess what the genetic package is. The appropriate mix of growth and carcass genes that are achieved through proven sires is critical. A calf only will be what its genes allow it to be. In the current world, fast-growing calves that have the genes to grade Choice and offer the feedlot some flexibility in marketing a very lean, heavy carcass would be very desirable. The second point is sound management. As a buyer who is about to write a check for $900 calves, there is an expectation that these calves have been under the care of a good manager. It’s not in the bold print; it’s the fine print that acknowledges the presence of a good manager. A manager is someone who conducts business in a professional manner, pays attention to detail, has a broad grasp of the industry, has positive people skills, guides those who are supervised, and knows how to document and sell a program. The third point is to have the calves preconditioned. Preconditioned calves are products of a complete health management program designed to minimize risk as the calves leave the home ranch to travel through the marketing channels and arrive at a backgrounder or feedlot. These calves must be accustomed to water troughs, feed bunks and timely vaccinations using recommended vaccines, treated for applicable parasites and fully processed (castration and dehorning). The fourth point is tag identification. Calves need to be identified by a tag or a similar form of identification to allow for the proper acknowledgment of who that calf is. Not all calves are the same, and all calves do not measure up to standards. Those that do must be identified or, once unloaded into a pen of similar-colored calves, they all become average. The fifth point is very much tied to the fourth point. Cattle that are seeking a premium must be certified and acknowledged as to who they are. The challenge is not a simple one. As the market gets more technical, the challenge becomes even greater. However, the difficulty does not remove the need to certify who the calf is. Call it

the difference between generic versus name- brand marketing. The difference is in the name. Point six is a good marketing strategy. Many would put this point as No. 1. However, endurance in a good marketing strategy depends on having a calf that has superior genetics, represents sound management practices and is preconditioned, tag identified and certified. The process of getting calves ready for market and capturing the available market dollars is not simple. In days past, calves usually were not handled or worked prior to shipping in the fall. Instead, they were gathered, sorted and hauled directly to the auction barn. Calves would not be separated from their mothers prior to the sale, so the bawling of freshly weaned calves echoed from the local sale barns. These calves did well, and many returned to the countryside for a more leisurely feeding period in smaller lots or pastures. Today, the table has turned. Many calves compete to go directly to backgrounder lots or feed yards that are aggressively searching for feeder calves. In many ways, this final step is the culmination of genetic selection for growth and associated profitable carcass traits, the management needed to bring together the

calves and crops produced, and the skills to gauge the availability of reasonably priced feed grains in sufficient quantities that facilitate the operation of large feed yards. The demand is there. However, to stand at the entrance of a larger feedlot, with the constant flow of semitrucks loaded with feed or loaded with calves, and be able to say that I got my calves marketed right is tough. However, it can be done, as

New web tool for identifying insects in stored grain launched With over 50 species of insects recognized as pests of stored grain in Canada, the Canadian Grain Commission has launched a new web tool to help identify these insects for farmers. “Our insect keys are an effective, easy to use tool for insect identification,” says Brent Elliott, Infestation Control and Sanitation Office at the Canadian Grain Commission, “Once you know the insect you’re dealing with, you can make the
appropriate decisions for management.” Online users choose from a pair of images and descriptions that best matches the insect being identified. The process continues until you are able to identify the insect. Insect identification keys can be found at http://www.grainscanada.gc.ca/ storage-entrepose/keys-cles/iik-cii-eng. htm

In order to make an informed decision, growers need to understand how seed treatments can protect their crop and benefit their yield potential. Seed quality is the first step to a successful crop. The seed put in the ground sets up yield potential, while inputs and environment dictate whether that yield potential is reached. But if seeds have to fight against poor weather conditions or soil borne diseases, standability and yield potential can be severely compromised. “The weather’s been fairly erratic. 4702 Victoria Avenue, Coronation, AB 403-578-4567

Pellet heating This type of heating uses compacted sawdust or other biomass materials that are less polluting than ordinary wood. Like wood stoves, pellet stoves produce plenty of heat, but they do require some maintenance.
Electric units They are eco-friendly and extremely easy to install; just plug them into a regular electrical outlet. However, while an electric fireplace is ideal for creating atmosphere, it emits very little heat.
PHOTOS: GOODSHOOT / STOCKBYTE / THINKSTOCK
Wood stoves There’s nothing more enjoyable than a crackling fire. Today’s slow burning stoves are extremely efficient and emit far fewer particles to pollute the atmosphere than the previous generation of models. However, the fact remains that some towns are now banning the use of wood burning stoves and fireplaces, so be sure to check with your municipality before buying and installing either one.

Whether they use natural gas or propane, these devices are affordable as well as attractive and efficient. They require very little maintenance and, when equipped with batteries, can continue working even during a power failure. What’s more, heat production is easy to control.
Ethanol fireplaces These units beautify the home, are affordable, and the visual effect of the flames is realistic. However, the room where the device is installed has to be ventilated, as they do emit carbon dioxide. They are not an efficient source of heat, either.

Home staging for a new dÊcor at Christmas time Because Christmas is a time for entertaining family and friends, why not impress your guests with an appealing new dÊcor in your home? Of course, embarking on renovations at this time of year is never appealing. There’s no time to redo the kitchen or the living room flooring between gift shopping, preparing Christmas party menus, and getting to appointments with the hairdresser and esthetician. With this in mind, home staging is the dream solution, and it doesn’t have anything to do with putting your home up for sale! Making your home more attractive is an easy undertaking that can give it a fresh, new look. The first step is to rearrange the furniture, a simple exercise that can translate into some surprising results. This is also an
opportunity to de-clutter the main rooms of your home by putting away some accessories, even if just temporarily. After all, you have to make room for the Christmas tree and other decorations. Changing the cushions, drapes, rugs, and throws can give a whole new look to a room. If you’d really like to paint some walls but don’t have much time, you can, in a single morning, paint one accent wall. Another suggestion: shop around for an element that will steal the spotlight, such as a luxurious chandelier, a small decorative fireplace, or an impressive work of art. By following these few tips, your guests will be sure to notice your new dÊcor. It’s guaranteed to be a topic of conversation over the holidays!

Jets’ fans eager for playoff action
by Bruce Penton It’s time for the Winnipeg Jets to make the playoffs in the National Hockey League. After losing their beloved Jets for 14 seasons, Jets fans were just happy to have them back in town after being reborn in time for the 2011-12 season when the • Steve Harvey of the Bottom 10: “How Atlanta Flames franchise was sold to Winnipeggers. bad are things for Jacksonville (0-4)? The Year 2 of the Second Coming resulted in close, but no Jags tried to lure people to their game playoff beards in Winnipeg, but now Year 3 is upon us against Indianapolis by offering them two and the hockey honeymoon is over. Fans aren’t just free beers for every ticket of $45 or more happy to have their team back; they want some playoff purchased. The Jags, who fell 3-37, played action. And the team built by general manager Kevin as though they had broken into the booze Cheveldayoff and guided by coach Claude Noel seems themselves.” to have the makings of a playoff contender, although the Winnipeggers — who have sold more logoed mer• Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “In one of the great comebacks in sports history, chandise than any other Canadian NHL club — will never be confused with a Stanley Cup contender.

able to legally quaff any celebratory champagne if the Jets happen to clinch a playoff spot in an American city next April. Scheifele, Winnipeg’s first-round draft pick in 2011, just about made the team last year but was sent back to the Barrie Colts of the Ontario Hockey League for seasoning. It worked. Scheifele dominated in junior (120 points in 66 regular season and playoff games) and now comprises one-third of a great second line for the Jets with Evander Kane and Devin Setoguchi, acquired from Minnesota in the offseason. (The Jets’ solid No. 1 unit consists of Blake Wheeler, Andrew Ladd and Bryan Little.) Trouba , an American defenceman and chosen by the Jets in the first round of the 2012 draft, could be a rookie-of-the-year candidate if his early-season play is any indication. Trouba scored the winning goal and was named the game’s first star as the Jets won their season opener, 5-4 on the road in Edmonton. The Jets then won their home opener over the 2012 Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings, giving rise to fans’ belief that this is the year they’ll finally be lining up for playoff tickets.

• Cote again: “New Panthers goaltender Tim Thomas, 39, known for refusing to attend the White House after the Bruins’ 2011 Stanley Cup in objection to the president, is mentoring young goalie Jacob Markstrom, and the impact has been immediate. I hear Markstrom already likes Obama less than he used to.” • Cam Hutchinson of the Saskatoon Express reports: “A California youth football league will start to fine teams that win games by more than 35 points. ‘Can the CFL do that too?’ asked the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.” • Janice Hough of leftcoastsportsbabe: “Bud Selig took over as acting MLB commissioner on Sept. 9, 1992, saying repeatedly he wouldn’t stay on in the job. He has now announced he will retire in 2015, when presumably he will join Cher on a farewell tour.” • Hough again, on Team USA coming back from 8-1 to win the America’s Cup 9-8: “On a brighter note for Team New Zealand, they were named honourary Chicago Cubs.”
