Devan C. Tasa Editor The citizens of Humboldt were commended by the Governor General for their response to the Broncos bus crash.

“These are citizens that demonstrated solidarity, strength and resilience by offering steady support to the families of the victims,” the commendation read.

“The entire community, young and old alike, are to be commended for their unity, their compassion and their generosity during a time of great sorrow, one that we know carries on to this day.”

The commendation was one of two presented by Julie Payette during her visit to Humboldt Oct. 20.

The other one was presented to the first responders that responded to the April collision at the junction of Highways 35 and 335.

the extreme engagement and dedication of the community,” Payette said at the presentation ceremony at the Humboldt and District Gallery.

Rob Muench, Humboldt’s mayor, accepted the commendation on behalf of the city.

“Talking to her, that’s something that doesn’t happen very often,” Muench said. “It’s something usually given to individuals, so she said it’s very rare. I think it’s a big honour for our city.”

The Governor General expressed hope that something positive would emerge from the tragedy.

“We can’t go back and redo this. If we could, we would immediately,” she said. “What we can do, through, is build on that memory and make something very good and very positive out of it. I think that’s exactly what’s happening in this community.”

Seven first responders from Tisdale, Nipawin and Zenon Park representing fire, police, ambulance and conservation services came to accept a commendation for their selfless service and generous spirit.

“It’s with the thanks and gratefulness of all Canadians that I’m in the position to offer you this outstanding commendation for all of the first responders that helped in the tragedy,” Payette said.

Muench said he was happy to see them there.

“It was nice to see them come here because of what they did for the team on the highway that night.

It was good to have them represented.”

After the commendation, the Governor General went to the Elgar Petersen Arena where her, Muench and Broncos president Jamie Brockman sat together, watched a Broncos game and talked about hockey.

CANNABIS LEGALIZATION

Less stigma for medical users Jessica R. Durling Journal Writer The Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada is hopeful the legalization of cannabis will reduce the stigma of using the drug for medical reasons.

“The stigma that has existed around for years around the use of marijuana has typically been associated with street use,” said Erin Kuan, t h e p re s i d e n t f o r t h e society’s Manitoba and Saskatchewan divisions.

“When it comes to any treatment for MS, we want to support the right for

affordable and accessible treatment and certainly medical cannabis is one of those.”

Studies on cannabis for patients with MS, which the MS Society has available on their website for viewing, shows pain management and spasticity can be improved with use of cannabis. Spasticity is related to alterations in the normal excitatory/ inhibitory balance on the nerves responsible for movement.

One of these studies, the Cannabinoids in Multiple Sclerosis (CAMS) study,

tested 667 individuals with MS found cannabis had a modest treatment effect on improving disability for those that took a synthetic THC formulation. THC is the active chemical in cannabis.

“There’s different research that’s come out about the benefits of cannabis, obviously on all kinds of chronic illnesses,” Kuan said. “It has been shown to improve or provide relief with spasticity, nerve pain, things like that.”

This doesn’t mean the MS Society wants people with MS to go to the store

and buy some cannabis themselves without consulting their healthcare provider.

“We would always want people to do their own research, the mssociety. ca website is a great resource, but I think it’s a very personal choice and one they should make in consultation with a healthcare practitioner, for sure,” Kuan said. “That is the way we want people to receive therapeutic doses as opposed to off-the-street, obviously. We always want them to take the safest route.”

She has heard mixed results from people with MS trying to get access to medical cannabis from healthcare providers.

“If their doctor doesn’t believe that is something that will benefit them, they will have some difficulty in getting that prescribed,” Kuan said. “So I think what the legalization does is lift or reduces some of the stigma that has previously existed around the use of medical marijuana.”

She doesn’t know the stigma around cannabis

will ever be stopped, but it can be reduced.

“I don’t know if it will ever be eliminated but I think the reduction in it allows people or hopefully enables people to look at alternative treatments. So whether one person finds great reprieve from medical marijuana, some may find it from a disease modifying therapy, such as a pharmaceutical. Other people may find it from more naturopathic resources, but I think it’s just providing more options for people in their management of their symptoms.”

WADENA COUNCIL

Highway rehab to start next year Cynthia Bigrigg Trader Writer Sections of two highways that run through Wadena will be rehabilitated next year to the tune of $13,000, but all costs will be covered by the Urban Highway Connector Program (UHCP).

The program doles out annual grants to cities in Saskatchewan for the operation and maintenance of highways that run through urban areas.

Wadena council discussed the upcoming project during its Oct. 16 meeting. Just over 2.1 kilometres of highways 5 and 35 will be rehabilitated within town limits – more than originally expected.

The initial plan was to pave a portion of Highway 5 west of the intersection

at Highway 35. Now, the project will see Highway 5 paved from 8th Street to the west urban limits and Highway 35 from 1st Avenue South to the railroad crossing near the north end of town.

“The town has been a member of the [program] agreement since 2009,” said Wadena CAO Ferne Hebig.

“Under the agreement with the province, the town maintains the highways within the boundaries specified in they give us an annual fee for part of the maintenance.”

Hebig said that as part of the agreement, the province is responsible for completing the first rehabilitation of the highway in town.

“We’ve never had that done, and we’re asking

them to do it. Any further work on it will be costshared,” she said.

Rehabilitation work is set to begin in summer 2019, and is expected to be complete by the end of the summer.

NAMING RIGHTS The Town of Wadena is looking to offset operating costs of the Wadena Recreation Centre by offering local businesses and organizations the opportunity to put their names behind it.

Wadena council is looking at offering naming rights for the centre to a sponsor for $10,000 per year over two years, with an option of $5,000 per year over two years if the sponsor covers the additional cost of signage, logos and renaming.

“It costs a significant amount of money to operate every year, and we’re looking at any way to bring in additional advertising on ice surface with logos. We thought we could explore other avenues of generating revenue,” said Hebig.

“Someone came to us and asked, and we’d already been talking about it.”

The sponsor for the first two years would have the first right of refusal to renew the contract for naming rights when the contract expires before it is made publicly available.

In addition to naming rights for the recreation centre itself, options for naming rights of the curling rink will be available, as will options to have naming rights for dressing

rooms in the new addition of the centre. Sponsorships of the dressing rooms will be offered at $5,000 per year over five years.

SOIL TESTING Two town-owned industrial properties west of the Petro Canada bulk fuel station are undergoing soil analysis.

The analysis is expected to determine whether there is any contamination in the area in advance of potential sales of the lots.

“We own two industrial properties over there.

They are empty lots, zoned industrial. There’s a possibility there could be some contamination because it’s so close to the gas station and fuel tanks,” said Hebig.

“Before we sell it to anybody – we have had people

over the last while asking if we’d be willing to sell, and what for. We’re not sure, because we don’t know what’s in the soil.”

The town received an estimate from Associated Engineering that noted the soil analysis could cost anywhere between $480 and $1,840 depending on the presence of water in the ground and the number of sample taken. The total estimate for the work is between $2,000 and $4,000.

Hebig said the testing is just in the beginning stages, and that the town hopes the work will be completed this fall, but will otherwise be completed in spring 2019.

“If there isn’t [contamination], great. If there is, we’ll make a plan for what we’re going to do about it.”

Cannabis legalization opens hemp market

“

“

So the Cannabis Act came into force Oct. 18.

Depending upon where you live in Canada the reaction has been quite different.

In British Columbia the potential for the c h a n g e t o c re a t e e c o nomic activity and to allow recreational use of a product many see as less dangerous than cigarettes and alcohol has been spurred by a province taking a very liberal approach to how to implement the new act.

In Saskatchewan the government has been a rather vocal opponent of the federal government’s plan to legalize cannabis from the outset, and the system surrounding the act’s implementation is more

It is hemp’s ability to annually produce large quantities of biomass which can be used in such a diverse range of products which has long intrigued producers.

Calvin Daniels guarded here to say the least.

In terms of agriculture the new act isn’t going to mean a great deal since the cannabis one will buy in the shops will be grown under some rather strict licenses, at least initially as the overall system has something of a developmental learning curve ahead of it.

But there is another

side to this story, or at least potentially another side, which should have farmers much more intrigued.

With marijuana now available in select stores, the cloud of arrest for using the product recreationally blown away, it could open the door to more attention being paid to hemp, and its potential across a range of sectors.

“Hemp, or industrial hemp (from Old English hænep), typically found in the northern hemisphere, is a variety of the Cannabis sativa plant species that is grown specifically for the industrial uses of its der i v e d p ro d u c t s , ” s a i d Wi k i p e d i a . “ I t i s o n e of the fastest growing plants and was one of the first plants to be spun into usable fibre

10,000 years ago. It can be refined into a variety of commercial items including paper, textiles, clothing, biodegradable plastics, paint, insulation, biofuel, food, and animal feed.”

It is hemp’s ability to annually produce large quantities of biomass which can be used in such a diverse range of products which has long intrigued producers.

The crop could create a viable rotational crop option, for producers, which would also take them into markets away from traditional cereal and oilseed ones.

Hemp has never really gotten off the ground as a farm crop because of it familial connection.

“Although cannabis as a drug and industrial

hemp both derive from the species Cannabis sativa and contain the psychoactive component t e t r a h y d ro c a n n a b i n o l (THC), they are distinct strains with unique phytochemical compositions and uses,” states Wikipedia. “Hemp has lower concentrations of THC and higher concentrations of cannabidiol (CBD), which decreases or eliminates its psychoactive effects.”

Now with the Cannabis Act in place the opportunity exists for greater research and development of hemp both in terms of being a farm crop, and in terms of its end uses.

Long term that may prove the most important aspect of what the new act came to allow.

No debate needed: McDavid is NHL’s best Let’s get this over with quickly. There is no need for a ‘debate’ about the best player in the National Hockey League.

It’s Connor McDavid, far and away the best player in the game.

Anyone trying to spark a ‘debate’ that Auston Matthews of To ro n t o s h o u l d b e i n the ‘best’ discussion is either: a.) unstable; b.) slightly delusional; c.) a budding comedian or d.) a die-hard, intransigent Leafs’ fan.

Both are great players. Matthews is off to a sensational start with the Leafs, accumulating 16 points in his team’s first seven games before being blanked in Games 8 and 9.

McDavid, meanwhile, r a c k e d u p 11 p o i n t s in his team’s first six games, scoring or assisting on 11 of Edmonton’s first 13 goals. Speed, of course, is at the root of his excellence. He is the fastest skater in the NHL and while he may some near peers in the speed category, no NHLer can

Bruce Penton control the puck at full speed as he’s able to do.

Defencemen are regularly left flailing away as McDavid wheels around them and helpless goaltenders know a red light is imminent when they see him speeding toward them on a breakaway.

In his first three seasons, McDavid has two scoring titles, an MVP crown and two first allstar team awards. He might have three scoring championships had he not missed three months of his rookie season with a shoulder injury.

Toronto fans, meanwhile, are going gaga over Matthews, who was on pace for more than 100 goals after scoring

10 in Toronto’s first eight games. They are being egged on by the national broadcast media in the Centre of the Universe, who with straight faces tout Matthews as McDavid’s equal – or, gad!, his superior. The Matthews hype machine has been roaring at full blast since Game 1.

Hockey people know b e t t e r, a n d w e s t e r n Canadian fans who see McDavid on a regular basis know better, too.

“Connor McDavid has put up back to back 100-point seasons,” Mark Scheifele, the Winnipeg centre, told the Globe and Mail. “He has done a lot that Matthews hasn’t.

Auston is a star and is going to get better, but he is not at McDavid’s level yet.”

Matthews may win a Stanley Cup before his Oilers’ rival, because he has a far better supporting cast. But the best individual player? That m y t h i c a l t ro p h y g o e s to McDavid, with no debate.

Stolen tractor found near Annaheim Devan C. Tasa Editor A tractor worth around $ 1 5 0 , 0 0 0 s t o l e n f ro m an implement dealer in Avonlea was recovered by the Humboldt-Lanigan RCMP on a farm property between Annaheim and Spalding.

Cst. Geoff Applegate of the Humboldt-Lanigan RCMP said the local RCMP worked together with the Milestone RCMP, who had received the complaint about the stolen tractor “A subsequent inves-

tigation lead HumboldtLanigan RCMP to author a search warrant and execute the search warrant on this farm property where the tractor was recovered in working order,” he said. “It was located on a farm property and it was undamaged. It was seized by the RCMP and brought back to Humboldt on Oct. 2.”

The distance between where the tractor was stolen and where it was found is around 310 kilometres.

Applegate said police are still

investigating the crime.

BREAK AND ENTERS Several businesses in Watson located along Highway 6 were broken into.

The crimes occurred in the early morning hours of Oct. 21.

The suspects made off with a Brown 2013 Ford Explorer from the one business. Photos of the suspects are attached. RCMP urge the public not to approach the suspects or vehicle if seen, but rather to report them to police.

HORIZON SCHOOL DIVISION

Little change to schools’ cannabis policies Jessica R. Durling Trader Writer From the perspective of students at the school divisions in the area covered by the East Central Trader, nothing will change with the legalization of cannabis.

In both the Horizon and North East school divisions, cannabis still cannot be consumed on school grounds by students or staff.

“The age of 19 is legal for use of drugs or alcohol, so our policies would not have to change in that area,” said Don Rempel, North East’s director of education.

“Just because it became legal rather than illegal, it’s still

not suitable for a student to be consuming drugs or alcohol in the school or on school grounds.”

Both divisions will still follow their same procedures when a student is caught using the substance: an investigation will take place to determine if cannabis is being used, contact the parents, suspend the student from school and support to the family for addiction counselling if required.

Rempel expects drug education to change this year with the focus on cannabis, but that will be in the classroom, not in division policy. “[There will] probably

a greater emphasis on the harmful effects of drugs and alcohol and that brain development up to the age of 25; you’re very vulnerable if you consume drugs or alcohol or cannabis,” Rempel said. “That is well outlined in our health curriculum already, to that message is already there.”

The Saskatchewan Medical Association recommended the legal minimum age be set to 25 to purchase cannabis, due to the harmful effects it has on a developing brain.

Horizon said it will be sharing informational documents provided by the education and health ministries.

PROVINCIAL POLITICS

Major parties match spending in Melfort byelection Devan C. Tasa Editor Campaign expenses for the two major parties in the Melfort byelection were close to each other, but neither were anywhere close to hitting the expense limit.

Lorne Schroeder of the Saskatchewan New Democrats spent $21,035.62 for the March 1 byelection to replace Kevin Phillips as

MLA, while the victorious candidate, Todd Goudy of the Saskatchewan Party, spent $20,068.32.

The expense limit for the campaign was $59,641, almost $40,000 higher than what the two candidates spent.

On the revenue side, the Saskatchewan Party campaign had an injection of $20,000 from the

local constituency association, $9443.27 raised from individual donors and $6,000 raised from corporate donors. The NDP took out a $14,000.01 loan and received an injection of $8,000 from their local constituency association.

Shawn Setyo, the Green Party candidate, reported no expenditures or revenues during the campaign.

COMMUNITY HUMBOLDT AND DISTRICT GALLERY

Staking it all on music Devan C. Tasa Editor From playing ukulele and saxophone to becoming a singer-songwriter, Ian Sherwood’s musical career has evolved along with his dreams.

Sherwood will be coming to the Humboldt and District Gallery for a live performance Nov. 2.

The multi-instrumentalist folk/pop musician from Dartmouth, NS, said he’s always been into music ever since he was a child.

“I was a really unsuccessful ukulele student and from there I went on and joined school choirs and sang in musicals and stuff like that,” he said. “I always played saxophone in the school band. I was a real band nerd.”

For Sherwood, performing with the saxophone was a natural fit.

“I went to university and was doing economics, with a plan to go into architecture, of all things, but I put myself through university playing music and I decided this was making me money right now, I’ll give this a shot and it just kind of stuck.”

The transition from a musician playing strictly saxophone in Toronto to a singer-songwriter was an abrupt one, Sherwood said.

It was during a time where his life was changing: a relationship was ending, he was in a dead-end job and he was thinking about moving home to Nova Scotia.

Singer-songwriter Ian Sherwood will be coming to the Humboldt and District Gallery for a live performance Nov. 2.

“Everything happened all at once and I found myself thinking, ‘you know what? I’m in a position where I can do anything I want. There’s nothing really holding me back.’

In that moment, I had a real sense of clarity, that I could do anything.”

S i n c e t h e re w a s n o reasons holding him back, Sherwood said, he could be honest with himself in terms of what

he wanted to do.

“I didn’t know if it was going to last. I didn’t know if I would always be a singer-songwriter,” he said. “I didn’t know if I was going to be singing for a couple of months and figure out it wasn’t what I wanted to do, but, no, it stuck and I loved doing it.”

As for the mix of folk and pop he plays, Sherwood said that just evolved naturally.

“I didn’t go out to be a folk/pop guy. I just started writing songs,” he said. “Thinking of genre is really a retrospective thing. You kind of just start making music and then people start asking you what kind of music you make.”

Sherwood said audiences can expect a highenergy performance, where he plays multiple instruments, uses a looper

and shares stories about being on the road with the audience.

“I like to laugh with the audience, so hopefully we’ll have a couple of laughs, couple of good tunes, have a good night,” he said.

The musician said he works to bring out the joy of live music, of making it something that stands out for people to ensure they don’t regret

not staying at home.

“There really is no replacement for going out and sitting in a live audience and listening to live music, so when people do that, when they make the choice to do that, I want to make sure to give them a really great show.”

Sherwood will perform at the Humboldt and District Gallery for a live performance Nov. 2 at 7:30 pm.

PUBLIC HEALTH

Out of the shadows

Health authority encourages people to get flu shot Devan C. Tasa Editor With flu season coming up, the Saskatchewan Health Authority is encouraging the public to get the flu shot to protect themselves – and others.

“We know that some people can’t get the flu shot because of some medical conditions,” said Hortense Tabien, a medical health officer with the authority.

“They might just be immunocompromised or they might not be able to have the flu shot.”

When most people receive the flu shot, those that cannot are protected as they come into contact with fewer people infected with the disease.

In Saskatchewan, the flu shot is free for everybody.

Everybody is at risk at catching the flu. Health Canada says the disease causes 12,200 hospital stays and 3,500 deaths per year,

making it among the top 10 cause of death in the country.

Groups more at risk from the disease include children under five years of age, those older than 65, those with health conditions and pregnant women.

“We need to do our best to get protected, especially for the vulnerable groups,” Tabien said.

The medical health office said it was important to note the vaccine targets influenza, She said that sometime people might get vaccinated for influenza and then get the common cold or stomach flu and feel they didn’t get any protection. The common cold and stomach flu around both different conditions linked to different viruses not covered by the influenza vaccine.

Flu shot clinics in Humboldt will be held at the St. Augustine Parish Centre on Nov. 6 from 4 to 7 pm.

Used to accompanying major stars on the stage, GhostBoy, made up of Denis Dufresne and Aaron Young, stepped into the light to play some music of their own. They played at the Humboldt and District Gallery on Oct. 18.

BIG DATA

Sensors, automation could track food production process Devan C. Tasa Editor

The combination of big data, cheap sensors and farm automation could soon develop a world where consumers can track what happens to their food from the farm to the fork.

David Yee, a vice-president with the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute, talked about some of the technologies that producers could soon see on their farms at Ag in Motion July 18.

Sensors the size and stickiness of scotch tape are being developed that can be stuck on crops to make sure they’re getting the proper nutrients

to grow. Other sensors can be implanted in the soil to keep an eye on the conditions there.

There are sensors being developed that can be implanted into the non-productive parts of livestock that can diagnose medical conditions.

Yee said those sensors could improve the quality of life for the animals – if not save their lives outright.

“Unlike human beings, the animals can’t come back to the ranchers and say, ‘I’ve got a headache today,’ or, ‘my stomach feels this way.’”

While there’s lots of work being done now to ensure these sensors can

withstand the rigours of farm life, they are expected to cost producers only dollars – if not pennies.

Autonomous machines could help the independent single farmer

get the work done in a timely manner when there’s a lack of bodies around to help.

The data from the sensors and harvesters could be inserted into a digital record using blockchain technology that consumers can use to determine what has happened to their food at every single step of the process.

Ye t t h e r e i s o n e problem that has to be overcome.

“Connectivity is one of the biggest hurdles we have right now,” Yee said. “We need to see the connectivity blanket the entire rural area.”

There’s two possible

solutions being worked on. Microsatellites are being developed that can be launched into orbit and cover the entire globe with wireless internet access.

There’s also work being done to make the protocols used to transfer data smaller. Yee said the present protocols are like using a for sale sign the size of a semitruck, while the goal of newer ones is to shrink that sign to the size of a recipe card so it’s easier to move information.

“These technologies are really key and tantamount, we believe, in maintaining the SEE SENSORS PAGE 2

family farm we know in Western Canada. We need to provide farmers now and farmers in the future all of the tools to make sure they’re successful and they can stay inside of this business,� he said. “Technology is another one of those tools that makes us viable and sustainable.�

Yee said farmers can start to prepare for this future by experimenting with new tools and adding to their business plans what kind of ef-

fect a new technology could have on a farming operation. At the same time, the vice-president said it was important to not abandon the practises that got producers to this point. “That is how you made your farm successful, but open your mind and begin to explore the things that people are offering to you and use your filters to test whether that applies to you and the farm.�

Yee also recommended that producers take steps to make sure they own the data gathered from equipment and

tools used on the farm. “That is your farm encapsulated in a digital form. That is your intellectual property,� he said. “Make sure that you’re already guiding that, make sure you have your hand on that intellectual property and make sure you have a strategy for where you want to go with that intellectual property.�

Doing that means producers should look at the contracts closely to determine who owns the data collected. Yee added data ownership is still very much a wild west at this point.

Growing their own Eden Burr couple begins large scale greenhouse operation Devan C. Tasa Editor

Maureen and Tim Saretsky had two options before them: expand their grain operation or start a large-scale greenhouse.

After a revelation in the winter of 2016, the Saretskys decided that what was their plan B, the greenhouse, was what they should put their focus into.

“We prayed about it and in praying about it, this is what we were led to do,” Maureen said.

“We felt more comfortable with the greenhouse and able to put in a more even effort into the greenhouse,” Tim said.

Thus that was the beginning of Golden Eden Produce, a pesticidefree, non-GMO operation near Burr that at the moment grows peppers, tomatoes, strawberries, lettuce, cucumbers, potatoes beans and peas.

When looking into starting a greenhouse operation, the Saretskys first talked to Paul Kneeshaw of Misty Gardens in Humboldt, who directed them to Tom Wright of Wright’s Greenhouse near Melfort, who in turn pointed them to Arnold and Teresa Brewster near Prince Albert.

It was the Brewsters’ operation that inspired much of how Golden Eden is set up. The plants

are planted into small containers until they establish themselves into seedlings. From there, they are implanted into a bed of coconut fibre that’s watered by a hydroponic piping system.

Construction began in the spring of 2017, as soon as the soil thawed.

Fr. Joseph Salihu blessed the land two days before the ground was broken and would come by to give a blessing at certain stages of devel-

opment. At the end of construction, a statue of the blessed mother was installed and the greenhouse was consecrated.

Yet during that first year, the Saretskys were unable to grow a crop in the greenhouse.

“We couldn’t get the boiler going,” Maureen said. “We had 1,400 cucumber plants and they all slowly died and the last ones died three days before the boiler fired up.”

That didn’t stop them and the Saretskys were successful in growing two to three tons of produce this year. Yet that wasn’t without its own tribulations. Spider mites got into the greenhouse. Without any predators, they feasted on some of the produce with impunity. Not willing to use pesticide, the Saretskys ordered a different type of mite that preyed on the spider mites and got the infestation under control “Now we have a really good bug company, ” Maureen said.

Dealing with those type of problems is just part of the steep learning curve faced by the Saretskys as they’ve established the greenhouse.

They’ve had to deal with construction workers as they built a greenhouse from scratch without a lot of guidance, had an agricultural ministry greenhouse specialist pick their operation apart to ensure it met guidelines, and are working to ensure their produce meets regulations and can be marketed.

“We’ve had some very good people that took a

lot of time to explain and nurture us,” Tim said.

There’s seven employees on the payroll, with two being full time. The Saretskys said they’ve been key to the entire operation, rolling with the punches and willing to learn as it gets itself established.

“Well, that doesn’t just happen,” Maureen said. “God had to send them to us because what are we doing to do, go out and find them?”

The growing season for the greenhouse goes from middle of January to the end of November or early December.

For the Saretskys, having a pesticide-free, non-GMO operation is important to them “It’s a coupling of catching a market at the right time, paired up with a passion of wanting healthier food,” Maureen said. “This isn’t the easy way to go. If we were only interested in the market, then we sure wouldn’t have toughed it out when the spider mites came and got our cucumbers. We would have gone after them with pesticides to save the crop.”

PAMI updating pulse storage research Devan C. Tasa Editor

Pulse farming has changed after three decades, yet recommendations on how to store them haven’t changed with it.

A two-year research project being conducted by the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute aims to provide an update to a world where bin sizes, air flow rates and varieties of pulses have changed. “We’re needing to revisit basics to study the relationship between storage and the various conditions that we can put it through,� said Joel McDonald, a program manager with the institute.

The pulse storage project is one of many the institute is working on that’s related to grain storage. It is being funded by the provincial agriculture ministry and the Alberta Pulse Growers.

At the institute’s facility in Humboldt, there’s a test setup that features six bins that hold up to 20 bushels each.

With the sensors in the bins, the researchers can measure how much moisture is leaving the bin when subjected to a certain level of air flow.

The first year of the project was conducted last year.

The two pulses tested were peas, which need to have their moisture content reduced to 16 per cent to minimize the risk of spoilage, and red lentils, which need a moisture content of 13 per cent.

Each crop was subjected to a high airflow rate at two cubic feet per bushel, a medium rate at one cubic foot per bushel and a low rate at 0.1 cubic feet per bushel.

For the lentils, only the high air flow rate managed to get the crop to the target moisture level within the 12day trial, which happened Aug. 14 to 25, 2017. It reached the target within five or six days. The crop was originally only 0.5 per cent above the target.

The peas started at three

per cent above target. The high air flow reached the target in four days, the medium in nine, but the low didn’t reach the target during the 32-day trial, which happened Aug. 26 to Sept. 27.

Yet the researchers discovered something interesting.

Starting on Day 18 of the trial, there was wet, cool weather.

With the drying capacity of the air reduced, the high air flow ended up adding moisture to the crop instead of taking it away “That’s one of those things you don’t necessarily set out to discover but when the conditions happen, you capture it,� McDonald said.

The trials will be repeated this year, with peas and green lentils, to confirm the results.

McDonald said that with this data, the institute will be able to give better recommendations to producers and give more specifics as to how much cubic feet of air would be needed to dry out a crop.

Government offering agricultural scholarship Jessica R. Durling Reporter

The provincial government is accepting applications for the 2019 Saskatchewan Agriculture Scholarship program. “This scholarship provides a great opportunity to show your passion for agriculture,� Emma Hinz, winner of the 2018 Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship, said in a press release. “It has allowed me to further my education and develop a deeper connection to the agriculture industry by sharing my voice.�

To apply you must be a Saskatchewan resident in Grade 12 or have graduated high school within the past two years, and are planning to take agriculture-related post-secondary education beginning in the fall of 2019.

Students interested in applying for the scholarship must fill out an application form that can be found on the Government of Saskatchewan

website as well as submit a creative three-minute video or a 1,000-word essay based on topics surrounding their food story, provide a letter of conditional acceptance to a post-secondary institution, and provide a letter of recommendation from a teacher, professor, agriculture industry leader or community leader.

The person who places first for their food story receives a $4,000 scholarship. The three runner-ups get scholarships of $2,000. b The food stories will be judged by a review committee based on alignment with the theme of “our food has a story�, development of ideas, structure and clarity, creativity, quality and professionalism.

The letters of recommendation will also be taken into consideration in the judging.

The deadline to apply for the scholarship is March 1, 2019. Submissions can be sent to agriculture.scholarship@ b gov.sk.ca.

Every year local producers put it all on the line. They’re up against weather conditions, market conditions and more as they quietly go about the business of feeding a hungry world.

CANOLA

Online tool helps with combine optimization Devan C. Tasa Editor

A new online tool aims to make it easier for producers to optimize their combines for harvesting canola.

The tool, found on canolacalculator.ca/ combine-optimization, was developed by the Prairie Agricultural Machinery Institute in partnership with the Canola Council of Canada. It was released this summer in time for this year’s harvest. “It could be particularly useful for farmers right now as they get back out into the field after the cool, wet weather,� said Joel McDonald, program manager of agriculture development services with the institute. “Now your harvesting conditions have changed and your harvesting settings that you had before might not be optimal anymore for the condition of the crop.�

The tool, which is mobile-friendly, aims to be

an easier guide for producers on the field than using operator’s manuals, complex flow charts and printed materials with moving sliders.

“It’s really a hassle and you’ve got to be on top of it to guide your way through it,�

McDonald said about those items. “The inten-

tion of this tool was just to make it simple.�

The optimization tool begins by asking if the problem is related to grain loss, grain sample quality or productivity. It then asks a few follow-up questions before giving suggestions.

If the suggestion doesn’t work for whatever reason, it will ask more questions and give more suggestions.

The tool should work for most canola producers. “The intention was to keep it generic,�

McDonald said. “It should work for all crops in Western Canada and it should work for all combines.�

That said, it’s not meant to replace any recommendations supplied by equipment manufacturers about combine use or safety.

McDonald said the institute was interested in hearing feedback from the canola council and making improvement to the tool in the future.

STORAGE PREPARATION

Dryers recommended to get harvest grain ready Jessica R. Durling Reporter

When it comes to drying grain for this harvest season, the provincial agriculture ministry is recommending the use of dryers.

Kim Stonehouse, a crops extension specialist out of Tisdale, has had farmers call him wanting to know possible steps they can take to dry their grain in this unusual fall. He said the dryer is the best option â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are just not enough warm days out there where you can have a significant enough rise and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

not enough air flow through in an aeration system to actually go that dry,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been advising them probably one of their best options is to put it on aeration without heat to cool the grain.

Keep that grain below 10 degrees moisture content so that it will store for a period of time that they can actually deal with it and get it into a dryer.â&#x20AC;?

Grain has a safe storage moisture content.

When it is up to 14.6 to 17 per cent moisture content itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s considered â&#x20AC;&#x153;toughâ&#x20AC;?. When itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s over

17 per cent moisture content itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s considered â&#x20AC;&#x153;damp.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about grain here thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s damp rather than tough,â&#x20AC;?

Stonehouse said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would think that a lot of this grain is going to have to get in an actual grain dryer to get it done. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too cool out there right now for, say, somebody to take an aeration fan and put it on a bin and add heat to that because there just wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a significant enough air flow.â&#x20AC;?

The dampness alone isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t making grain dryers a preferred method

as opposed aeration, but the cold as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get that temperature up high enough,â&#x20AC;? Stonehouse said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just a matter of whether it is too damp to do that, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the environmental conditions that we have right now. The air is a lot cooler out there. Pretty soon weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be seeing temperatures that are well below 10 degrees, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually what we had the last couple of weeks.â&#x20AC;?

This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean drying by aeration is impossible, just difficult.

Take steps to control weeds after harvest As harvest progresses, it is a good time to determine if any fall weed control is needed.

Both winter annuals and perennial weeds can be effectively controlled with post-harvest herbicide applications.

Winter annuals, such as stinkweed, Canada thistle and flixweed, can be effectively controlled late in the fall months.

P e re n n i a l w e e d s , such as Canada thistle, perennial sow thistle and dandelion can also be controlled after harvest, but these weeds require a longer period of good growing conditions to absorb and translocate herbicides to the plant roots. As a result, herbicides applied for effective perennial weed control need to be applied earlier in the fall compared to products applied for winter annuals.

E i t h e r w a y, p o s t harvest weed control is an opportunity to control seedlings that have emerged later in the growing season before they are able to establish, overwinter and become more difficult to control the following year. Whether choosing to spray because of newly-emerged seedlings or to control more established patches of perennial or winter annuals it is important that the plants are actively growing to ensure the best results.

Before spraying it is important to look for new green growth or regrowth over a few days to indicate that the plants are still actively growing and able to take up herbicides. Yellow or sickly plants will not likely take up as much of the herbicide being sprayed, resulting in reduced weed control.

Often frosts can occur in the fall that may damage or kill plants. Following a frost, weeds may still look green the day after but it can take up to four days for plants to show any signs of frost damage. If choosing to spray following a significant frost, make sure that new green regrowth is present before using a herbicide that requires plant uptake to work.

Glyphosate is a good example of a systemic herbicide that needs good growing conditions (i.e. warm and sunny days) to promote the uptake and movement of the herbicide throughout the plant. If a killing frost does occur and no regrowth is present, then an early-spring burn-off option may be a better strategy for control of target perennial and winter annual weeds.

Pre-harvest herbicide application is becoming a popular tool for controlling perennial weeds in-crop.

However, warmer and longer harvest seasons

can allow for volunteers, perennials, winter annuals and other nuisance weeds to emerge in fields that were sprayed with glyphosate prior to harvest. Late season fall moisture during harvest can also encourage additional flushes and/ or regrowth of weeds within fields. So, it is important to scout all fields to determine if they require post-harvest weed control even if they were sprayed with a pre-harvest product previously.

With the development of herbicide resistant weeds, including Group 2 resistant stinkweed, it is critical that herbicide groups are rotated when spraying. Sometimes multiple applications of the same herbicide need to be used on the same field within the same growing season for weed control. However, if possible, using registered herbicides containing multiple groups or registered tank mixes composed of different herbicide groups will help reduce the risk of developing unwanted resistant weeds in fields.

W h e n c o n t ro l l i n g weeds in the fall, it is always important to consider herbicide residues as some products may have recropping restrictions.

grain in their aeration bin to increase the air flow through it.

Stonehouse said by using aeration right now to dry grain it could take a week to two weeks or more.

After using the grain dryer, another option he suggested is to overdry it to lower the risk of moisture rebound.

Moisture rebound could cause spoilage

through mould as well as from insects that require moisture that feed on that grain.

“You might dry it down to what you think is a safe storage content, and then cool it and put it in the bin and you could still have spoilage because that grain will rebound and increase in moisture slightly, which can cause problems in the bin.”

“I’ve been advising it’s probably not going to be a successful thing.

If they’re talking about grain that only has one or two per cent moisture that needs to be dried out of it, there have been some producers [that] have been successful in reducing the amount of

Animal protection legislation update brings changes to terms, actions T h e A n i m a l Protection Act has been updated by the provincial government.

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what ranchers need to know.

The agriculture m i n i s t r y i s re s p o n sible for administration of the act and e n s u r i n g i t p ro v i d e adequate protection of animals and clear direction for animal p ro t e c t i o n e n f o rc e ment in the province, including the appointment of animal protection officers (APOs).

Everyone has a responsibility to protect animals from cruelty.

It is also important to know that in a case of suspected cruelty, not only is the owner of the animal responsible, but so are those who have control or custody of the animal.

While many parts of the old act have been reworded or updated, there are a few new provisions to be aware of.

NEW TERMINOLOGY One of the first changes in the new act is the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;animal protection agency.â&#x20AC;? This term encompasses organizations, including humane societies, designated as animal protection agencies that enforce the new act and employs animal protection officers. The Animal Protection Agency of Saskatchewan, Regina H u m a n e S o c i e t y, Saskatoon SPCA and Prince Albert SPCA will enforce the new act.

The term â&#x20AC;&#x153;abandoned animalâ&#x20AC;? has also been added to the definitions.

This term does not include those animals that are running at large. The new act allows an APO to take an abandoned animal into custody and deliver them to an animal protection agency or caretaker.

DISTRESS An essential part of

any welfare case is determining whether an animal is truly in distress or not. The new act has a very detailed description of what is defined as distress. Because animals are still considered personal property and do not have their own legal rights as people do, having a clear definition of distress is key to ensuring that animal protection agencies have the ability to intervene in cases where animal cruelty may be occurring.

What is also important in the new act is the continued allowance for use of a standard, code of practice, or guideline listed in the new regulations, to guide what is considered appropriate practice and use of animals. This is especially important for those who manage livestock, as many procedures are considered standard practice to those in the industry but may not be so clear to those outside of industry.

ANIMAL CARE DUTIES Every person responsible for an animal has a duty to provide for their care. The new act includes a section detailing what these duties involve, including provision of food and water, adequate veterinary care, and appropriate shelter. This section also states that animals cared for in accordance with the appropriate standard, code of practice or guideline will be considered as being provided adequate care.

WHAT APOS CAN DO The new act provides greater detail into the actions an APO can take in a suspected cruelty case and also provides a fair approach for the person responsible for the animal.

APOs have always had the ability to take any action to relieve an animal in distress

FRED BRADSHAW, MLA Carrot River Valley

Feeding the world

following guidelines as set out by the act. In the new act, APOs can take a more proactive approach and investigate cases where animals are likely to be in distress and act to prevent distress of animals, rather than waiting until distress has already occurred.

Also in the new act is the provision for corrective action orders.

APOs can order any corrective action needed to prevent or relieve distress of animals.

This action specifies the timeframe in which these orders must take place and allows the APO to follow up and ensure that orders were followed.

WHO MUST REPORT A major change in the new act is the requirement for veterinarians to report suspected cruelty cases. While veterinarians always had the ethical obligation to report

such cases, there was no law requiring them to do so, until now.

HOLDING TIMES In the new act, the hold time has increased prior to taking any action with that animal, such as posting for adoption. In the old act, any animal that was taken into a humane society required a hold time of three business days to allow the owner to come forward and claim the animal. In the new act, this time has been extended to five business days.

If you have questions or comments on animal welfare or if you suspect an animal cruelty case, contact your local animal protection agency, police detachment or the Animal P ro t e c t i o n S e r v i c e s of Sask atchewan at 306-382-0002.

Crop Report NORTHEAST SASKATCHEWAN Despite another week of cool and wet weather, producers in the northeast have made tremendous harvest progress.

Seventy-nine per cent of the crop is now in the bin, up from 64 per cent last week but remaining well behind the fiveyear (2013-17) average of 90 per cent for this time of year. Almost all of the crops are coming off tough or damp and are being placed into dryers when available. With warm and dry weather in the forecast, many producers expect to complete combining in the next week or two.

Both rain and snow were reported last week, with the Nipawin area receiving 17 millimetres. The Arborfield area received 10 millimetres of precipitation, the Humboldt area six millimetres, the Bruno area four millimetres, the Vonda area five millimetres and the Melfort area one millimetres.

The Nipawin area has received the most precipitation (458 millimetres) in the region since April 1.

To p s o i l m o i s t u r e conditions on cropland are rated as 19 per cent surplus, 76 per cent adequate, four per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 12 per cent surplus, 84 per cent adequate and four per cent short.

The majority of crop damage this past week was due to lodging from snow and rain; downgrading is expected at the elevator due to bleaching and sprouting. Some standing crops such as canola

Producers are busy combining, drying grain, hauling bales and completing fall field work.

EAST CENTRAL SASKATCHEWAN Producers are slowly progressing with harvest as time and weather permit. Much of the region was cool and wet last week, but many producers expect to be back in the field in the coming days thanks to some warm and dry weather in the forecast.

Sixty-eight per cent of the crop is now in the bin, up from 63 per cent last week, but well behind the five-year (2013-17) average of 88 per cent for this time of year. Any grain that has come off recently is tough or damp and is being placed in dryers.

Many areas reported a combination of rain and snow last week, with the Jedburgh area receiving 20 millimetres. The Rocanville and Kelliher areas received eight millimetres of precipitation, the Hubbard area seven millimetres, the Lipton

area 15 millimetres, the Elfros area six millimetres, the Bethune and Bulyea areas 10 millimetres, the Kuroki area one millimetres and the Allan area seven millimetres. The Langenburg area has received the most precipitation (461 millimetres) in the region since April 1.

Topsoil moisture conditions remain relatively unchanged since last week despite the moisture. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as one per cent surplus, 70 per cent adequate, 21 per cent short and eight per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as 56 per cent adequate, 33 percent short and 11 per cent very short.

The majority of crop damage this past week was due to lodging from snow and rain; downgrading is expected at the elevator due to bleaching and sprouting.

As well, strong winds have shelled standing crops, and geese and other wildlife are feeding on swathed crops.

Producers are busy combining, hauling bales, putting down fertilizer and drying grain.

CROSS COUNTRY

Avengers win provincials, region sweeps podium Eric Westhaver Trader Sports Three words come to mind when thinking of Three Lakes School’s triumph at cross-country provincials – small but mighty.

The Avengers crosscountry team came o u t o n t o p a t t h e re cent Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association (SHSAA) provincial meet in Delisle, earning top spot in the 1A division. While the school only has an enrollment of around 70 students, the school’s runners had five top 25 finishes in six races.

At the meet, each school’s individual score was determined by adding together each team’s top four finishes – the lower the number, the better. With Cara Dobrohoczki and Morgan Otsig finishing 10th and 14th in the midget girls’ race, Rayanne Hoeflicher

finishing 18th in the junior girls’ and Katelyne Richardson getting a 20th place finish in the senior girls’ race, the Middle Lake school ended with a total score of 62, more than enough to win provincial 1A gold and a high enough score to top 2A winner Clavet and beat Moose Jaw Central for second place in the 3A ranking.

The 1A podium was crowded with area schools.

Second place went to Lake Lenore, who got top 20 performances from both Joel Schemenauer in the senior boys’ and Carson Gerwing in the junior boys’ race and finished with 86 points. Muenster took third spot with 105 points, paced by a 17thplace race in the senior girls’ division by Abbie Korte.

Middle Lake crossc o u n t r y c o a c h Tre v o r Otsig was overjoyed with his team’s results.

“We knew we were in the running when we

had two really good starts in the midget girls’ race.

That really set the table for the other kids to have a good race,” he said.

“We were more than pleased with the finish we had. We had our sights set on a medal, that was our team goal going into the competition.”

Middle Lake’s best results came from younger age groups, a fact that provides Otsig with hope for more high finishes in the future.

“It’s good. It’s just setting the table and hopefully we can go on another bit of a run here, getting on the podium in years to come. If you always look down the line and see when you’ve got kids in Grades 6, 7 or 8 who potentially could be good runners, then your team should always at least have a chance,” he said.

“It gives you some hope for down the line that hopefully we could have a few more good finishes.”

Wi t h M i d d l e L a k e , Lake Lenore and Muenster all landing on the podium and William Derby School from Strasbourg finishing sixth out of 16 teams, regional schools had a strong showing throughout the field.

Is there something in the water? Not exactly, said Otsig – he said the reason for the region’s success is because of a strong tradition of crosscountry racing.

“Our little area here, there were always coaches who pushed the importance of running. It’s a good base that gets you into any of the other sports, whether it’s soccer, volleyball, or basketball,” he said.

“It’s an individual sport when you’re running, but I think our schools in the area really promote the team aspect.

When you have schools like ours and Lake Lenore and Muenster, there’s a friendly competition and a rivalry between us.”

In Memoriam

DEUTSCHER: Gary Apr. 20, 1954 - Oct. 15, 2018 Gary Deutscher of St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Villa, Humboldt, SK. passed away peacefully at his residence on Monday, October 15, 2018. He was 64 years of age.

Gary was born on April 20, 1954 in Saskatoon, SK. The Deutscher family moved to Humboldt in 1960, the area in which Gary grew up, attended school, and ultimately worked at St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Villa for more than 30 years in maintenance and cleaning services. Gary loved his family and took great pride in joining celebrations and outings. Like most of the Deutscher/Reinhart clan, he spent many summer days at Wakaw Lake playing cards and sharing stories. Gary was the adopted son of every one of his uncles and aunts. He was an honest and caring man where a chat over coffee, a hand of cribbage, and watching sports was a major part of his life. Gary was an avid Saskatchewan Roughrider fan, a long term season ticket holder of the Humboldt Broncos, and a big fan of any televised sport on ice, particularly the NHL and curling. Garyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family and friends will remember him for his smile, his endless questions to gain knowledge how everyone in the family was doing, and his uncanny ability to remember names and every birthday and anniversary of those he loved. He could recall dates because he knew how they were cherished memories for the people around him. Gary was a devoted Catholic and listened and watched the Catholic media channels when he was no longer able to walk to St. Augustineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parish church. Gary is survived by his brothers Michael (Patricia), Ross (Maria), Joe (Lorrie); his sisters-in-law Marci and Donna; his aunts Anna and Maxine, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. Gary was predeceased by his father and mother Mike and Etta (nee Reinhart) Deutscher; brothers Thomas, Richard, and Paul as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins. A Funeral Mass was offered at St. Augustine Roman Catholic Church, Humboldt, SK on Saturday, October 20, 2018 at 10:00 a.m., celebrated by Fr. Joseph Salihu. Others taking part were: Sarah Deutscher, crossbearer; David Deutscher and Matthew Deutscher, scripture readers; Joanne Higgins and Brian Deutscher, intentions; Mary Deutscher and Dallas Heilman, giftbearers; Loretta Schugmann as director with organist Marie Aubin and members of St. Augustine Parish Funeral Choir, music ministry; Michael Deutscher, Ross Deutscher and Joseph Deutscher, eulogists. Active pallbearers were: Karl Deutscher, Ben Deutscher, Paul Deutscher, Greg Deutscher, Jeremiah Deutscher and Luke Deutscher. Interment followed at St. Augustine Roman Catholic Cemetery, Humboldt, SK. Garyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family wishes to thank the caregiving from the staff of St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Villa who were as much a part of his working life as they were in his final years.
