Deloraine School welcomes new music teacher by Judy Wells David Heilmann started his career as a music teacher 15 years ago. He received his Bachelor of Education, specializing in Music and Geography, at the University of Manitoba. His career started with 12 years teaching in the Inner City (Winnipeg). Though this area of the city often gets a bad rap, Heilmann says the kids were amazing. “Kids that don’t have anything are so appreciative of everything and they thrived on the music program,” says Heilmann. The class sizes were huge, with the largest one up to 170 kids. Following these years teaching, Heilmann took a year off to take care of his grandma who lived near Lake Francis (north of Winnipeg). This was followed by a year internship in Australia where Heilmann obtained his wind conducting certificate and ORFF music certification. And last year,

he filled a term, as Grade 1-10 music teacher at Pierson School. “And now I’ve come full circle, teaching K-8 music again. I’m really excited to get started. My goal is to build a High School music program. My expertise is in band and choral. I admit I am a band geek and can’t wait to start band again at the School,” he added. Moving toward the goal of a High School program, the Grades 7 and 8 will be starting band this year. To this end, a fundraiser concert will be held on Saturday, November 7, at the School, featuring “Sisters of the Holy Rock”. Tickets ($15) will be available very soon at the school office. Heilmann says the band program (Grade 7 and 8) will be looking for donations of used instruments. It doesn’t matter if they are in disrepair (within reason) as he can fix them. “I understand there was a band program here years ago. It is my hope the interest is still out there in the community. This is important because the School Division needs to know the community is behind the program,” he added. Heilmann says he loves the small town living. “As soon as I saw the music classroom I knew this was where I wanted to be and I went right out and bought a house. It feels like home in Deloraine just after a month and a half,” added BACK TO SCHOOL- Wednesday, September 9, was the first day of school for the 2015-2016 school year at Deloraine School.

SUPER SPUDS - It was a great year for garden produce - lots of heat and timely rains. Doreen Deceuninck brought in two large-sized Pontiac potatoes grown by her son, Roger. You only need one potato for supper with these super spuds! PHOTO/JUDY WELLS
It was back to school on Wednesday, September 9, for the 2015-2016 school year. Many parents have bitter-sweet feelings as some of them have students in Grade 12 and Wednesday was their last ‘first’ day of school - at least for K-12 grades. As well, many children are starting school for the first time and younger siblings are going to miss their big brother/sister during the day. For the most part, though I did witness some parents doing the “happy dance” as they dropped off their children at the school. There’s something to be said about routine. Have a great year everyone! • • • For some reason I was thinking about songs about harvest time and the “Poverty Plainsmen” came to mind. We were living in Melita when they first started and they were featured at the annual UGG Fun Day (curling and social). I like all their songs and there are several about farming, the prairies and harvest time. My favourites are “Old Man,” “Borderline”, “After the Harvest” and “Make Up For Doing Time.”. If you get the chance check out their music - a couple of farm boys from Tilston and their friends made it big! • • • Welcome to David Heilmann, Deloraine School’s new music teacher. His goal is to establish a high school music program, especially band. In fact there will be a Grade 7 & 8 band starting and they will be in need of instruments. If you have any instruments kicking around your attic, basement or garage, the music program will happily accept the donation. Mr. Heilmann is not only a talented musician and teacher, he also is able to fix most instruments. So, even if your instrument needs repair, please consider donating it to the school. A fundraiser will be held on November 7 when “Sisters Of The Holy Rock” will be featured at the school for a 3:00 p.m. performance. I’ve never seen them but I can hardly wait as I’ve heard so many good reports. Mark your calendar. • • • The first Southwest Showcase concert will be held on Sunday, September 27, when “Royal Wood” takes the stage at the Deloraine Theatre. Just a reminder, all Showcase presentations are now 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30, except of course for the two 2:30 p.m. performances. Several extra tickets were sold for “Royal Wood” as people had already seen him perform and were happy for the opportunity to see him again. • • • Harvest Church is hosting ‘living proof live’ Simulcast on Saturday, September 12, starting at 8:45 p.m. Beth Moore is the speaker for this lifechanging bible study and inspiring worship. For more information, please call April at 204-5346411. • • • Somehow I got onto the Royal Canadian Mint website and was asked to vote on coin designs for the 150 Celebrations. While navigating the site, I found many interesting coins for purchase. There were two that particularly caught my eye — both commemorating the 100th anniversary of “In Flanders Fields” - the difference is the price, one is a Limited Edition Proof Silver Dollar depicting two soldiers at a memorial with a beautiful red poppy in the background, selling for $79.95 and the other is an amazing 10 oz fine silver coin which actually commemorates John McCrae’s poem right on the coin and it sells for a measly $899.95. I am still picking up my jaw. . .but it is beautiful. Check out the site www.mint.ca

Recommended principles for proper hay and forage sampling Seal composite of your forage sample in a well-sealed plastic bag and protect from heat. Send for analysis as soon as possible. Do not allow samples to be exposed to excess sun (e.g. in the cab of a pickup truck). Refrigeration of hay samples is helpful. However, dry hay samples (about 90% DM) are considered fairly stable. You can freeze the sample just be aware that this will slightly reduce ADF by 0.5 – 1%, not enough to be of great concern; however, once frozen, the sample must be stay frozen until delivered to the lab. Silage piles and silage bales should also be sampled for nutrients. Samples can be taken from the face of the pile following the opening of the bunker. Care should be taken when doing this and the recommended procedure would be to scrape off samples across the face of the pile with a tractor and a bucket. Mix well and put between 1 –2 lbs in a bag and seal well. Balage can be sampled with a probe using the same procedure you would use for dry hay. Make sure to seal up the probe holes with tape.

tions and bales throughout the lot to create a composite sample is a key aspect of representing the full variation contained in a hay lot. With large, round bales, sample two to three cores per bale on the round side of the bale, sampling every 10-12 bales. A larger number of core samples generally provide a more accurate characterization of variation in hay in more variable hay lots. With round bales, sample towards the middle of the bale at an angle directly towards the center of the bale. Sampling should be done so that about half a pound of sample is produced. Insufficient sized samples do not fairly represent the full range of variation in the hay lot, while excessively large samples (common with large length or diameter probes) are excellent at representing the variation in the hay lot, but have practical disadvantages. Large samples cannot be easily ground by the labs, and many labs will simply subsample from excessively large samples before grinding, defeating the entire purpose of good sampling tech nique!

flakes or grab samples as it is nearly impossible for these samples to accurately represent a hay lot. The corer should have a tip 90_ to shaft, not angled. The length of probe should allow probing to a depth of 12”-24”. Studies have shown this depth to successfully characterize the variation in hay, even in large (1 ton) bales, and no significant differ ences were seen between a 32” and 12” probe. A range of probe tip designs have been used successfully. From serrated to non-serrated tips--it is probably most important that the tip be sharp (and maintained sharp), and not create ‘fines’ during the cutting action, but cleanly cut across a cross-section of hay. To obtain ran dom samples, the sampler should determine the lot and randomly chose bales from which core samples are col lected. Despite some bales being inaccessible due to their location in stack (too high or against a wall), all areas of the lot should be sampled, and particular bales should not be selected or avoided based on appearance A minimum of 20 cores is recommended to obtain a representative composite sample. The same number of samples is recommended for large, round bales or small, square bales because variation in forage quality amongst core samples and bales may be tremendous as much as 5-7 % points in crude protein (CP). Sampling a large number of loca -
Kellett
(adapted from an article by Dan Putnam, University of California - The National Forage Testing Association ,www.foragetesting.org/ files/hayprotocol.pdf ) Proper sampling of hay and forage is of tremendous importance to assure an accurate forage analysis. This is a key first step to proper hay sampling, and one frequently ignored. A hay lot should be from the same field, variety and cut and, generally be less than 200 tons. Combinations of different lots of hay cannot be represented adequately by a forage sampling method; different lots should be sampled separately. Don’t mix cut tings, fields, or varieties. It is important to sample the hay either as close to feeding, or as close to the point of sale as possible. Dry matter (DM) measurements are especially subject to changes after harvest and during storage, but other measurements may also change. Immediately after harvest, hay normally goes through a process of further moisture lost known as a ‘sweat’. During this period, the temperature of the hay may increase due to the activities of microorganisms, driving residual moisture from the hay. The moisture content is likely to decrease in the days and weeks after harvest. If the hay has been baled with excess moisture, further biological activity may result in moulding. Use a sharp coring device that is 3/8-3/4î in diameter. Never send in

Market Report by Bob Cey Another volatile week in the markets as the tug a war between buyers and sellers continued. If the last 86 years are any indication of buyers and sellers I can tell you that on average September tops all months for having
more sellers than buyers. September has an average return of -1% over those 86 years and happens to be the worst month. That is followed by October at plus .4, November plus .7 and December which leads all months at plus 1.4 % on average. I am telling you this as history says September, on average, is the best month for those who believe it is better to buy low when there are
more sellers than buyers. This is true whether you are buying a house, buying a car or investing into the market. I find it very interesting how our minds work when it comes to rationalizing information that is right in front of our noses. It is much easier to invest money when markets are expensive and we rationalize that it can only keep going up. When we have a correction and the mar-

Market Report Continued from Page 7) that are cheap and he holds them for the long term. This is how he has always been and will always be. On Sunday, August 30, he turned 85 and his name is Warren Buffet. Volatility continued for global stock markets this week. After a rocky start, most markets recouped a portion of their losses at mid-week before falling back again. China was again at the root of volatility. Concerns about the health of the world’s second-largest economy were underscored by data showing that factory activity shrank slightly in August to its lowest level in three years. In recent weeks, wild swings in China’s stock markets and concerns that economic growth is slowing have contributed to global stock market volatility. China has announced measures to stimulate the economy, and this week augmented those moves with controls designed to limit cash leaving the country. Uncertainty over how recent developments will influence the US Federal Reserve’s interest-rate strategy also concerned investors.
Canada’s S&P/TSX Composite index lost ground, despite advances at mid-week and rising oil prices. China concerns continue to hold back commodity-related market sectors. Wall Street fell as a result of China developments and concerns about rates. European stocks were initially hurt by China concerns and helped at midweek by the European Central Bank’s announcement that it is prepared to expand economic stimulus programs, if needed. Economic and rate jitters pressured stocks again late in the week. Asian stock markets lost ground, led by a steep decline in Japan on

rate worries and continuing selling by foreign investors. North American economic news was mixed. Canada’s economy contracted by 0.5% y-o-y in the second quarter of 2014 and the first-quarter decline was revised to 0.8%. The figures were less severe than expected and many economists believe that recent data, including a return to growth in June, point to improvement. The economy created a betterthan-expected 12,000 jobs in August, but the unemployment rate rose to 7% from 6.8%. The US economy generated a lower-thanexpected 173,000 jobs in

August. However, the unemployment rate fell to 5.1% from 5.3% and is now at the lowest level since April 2008. Job creation in the previous two months was revised upward. The data contributed to uncertainty about whether the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates at its September 1617 meeting. The Fed’s Beige Book report indicated that the economy continues to expand in most regions. The US trade deficit narrowed as exports rose and imports declined, a signal of underlying strength. A gauge of factory activity fell to its lowest point since May 2013, although manu-
facturing continues to grow. In other news this week: • Canadian exports grew at a healthy pace in July as the country’s trade deficit fell to an eight-month low. • A Canadian purchasing managers survey indicated that manufacturing contracted in August, down from slight expansion a month earlier. • European manufacturing gained, with a purchasing managers index rising
in August to its highest level since May 2011. What’s ahead next week: Canada • Markets were closed Monday for Labour Day holiday. • Bank of Canada monetary policy announcement. • House prices, housing starts, building permits. US • Markets were closed Monday for Labour Day holiday. • Producer price index.
