The Sussex Herald

There has been some discussion recently about the “underground” economy in the Province with an estimate that around $100 million is lost as revenue to the government due to unclaimed income and other tax avoidance. Of course, the government would love to get their hands on a good size chunk of this untapped money, but first it might be nice for them to understand why an underground economy exists before they try and manage it. First, let me say that a small percentage of businesses of all sizes are just plain crooks and will cheat and otherwise do just about anything to put a few extra dollars in their pockets. Further, let me define two sizes of small business, small and tiny or little. A small business might have several employees or the owner has expectations of making a profit of let’s say more than $50,000. And then there are little businesses... ... supposing that I am a reasonably honest type person who would like to do what is right. So I plan on buying a used pickup and offer a yard cleaning service and general handyman stuff. I would hire one or two people part time if and when I had a larger job, and if I made $5,000 or $10,000 during the summer months to supplement my winter job at the port, I’d be happy. Great!! And then along comes the government. Do you charge HST or not. At this point it is optional but if your business is more successful than anticipated, it will become mandatory. Do you

spend maybe hundreds of dollars for accounting software and what about banking (use my current account or open a new one), incorporate or proprietorship (how do I know??) and there is more!! In order to use the truck as a business expense I need to calculate depreciation (what’s that), percentage of business and personal use and a record of every penny spent on gas, repairs and maintenance. And that is only a small fraction of what you could be in for!! You will become an unpaid tax collector if you charge HST, employ someone and need to withhold income tax, EI and CPP, and maybe pay for worker’s compensation, and maybe make installments on your personal income tax owing. In exchange, no one will thank you for being a good citizen. Most communications will involve how many thousands of dollars in fines or how many years you will spend in jail if you screw up!! Are you beginning to see why some businesses may start to cheat. I will likely have a part two, stay tuned. 0001

your soft plastics after a few strikes, and often damage your leader. Bring several lures and use at least a 30lb leader for pickerel fishing, checking it regularly for damage. If a fish has put a nick into it, then change it out as the next fish may easily break the leader and swim away with your lure and hook. And of course, never hold fish by the gills, and be sure to get it back in the water as soon as possible, so that it can swim away happy and be caught again by the next angler! 0044

This is the season for pickerel fishing! Pickerel, a smaller cousin of the Pike, is abundant in our area and a fish that is a ton of fun to catch. In fact, I have some friends that choose to fish for nothing other than pickerel for most of the year! Most pickerel you find will be around 16”-18” long, with larger ones getting closer to two feet or more. In the Spring, some people choose to keep pickerel for food, but as it warms up, their flesh become very soft, and often susceptible to parasites - not generally considered good for food, but still a great catch and release experience. To find pickerel, aim for water where there are a lot of weeds, pickerel love the grass! Adjacent to the public dock in Hampton is a popular place where you can fish pickerel from shore. I like to paddle my kayak next to a bank of

weeds and then cast my line parallel to the edge of the grass and retrieve it quickly along the surface. A top-water lure like a soft plastic frog or large spinnerbait which stirs up the water as you retrieve it fast would be a great choice; pink and white being the most popular colors. Once a pickerel notices the lure, it will often dart towards it and resemble a torpedo moving quickly through the water. Then the fish explodes out of the water to violently attack! This charge and strike will thrill most anglers, especially when you have a child out to witness it for the first time. Assuming you hook the fish, you then have a fun little fight on your hands. Be ready with your net if in a boat or kayak! Important to note with pickerel is that they have small but extremely sharp teeth and a lot of them! You do not want to ever put your fingers in the mouth of one of these fish. Use pliers to remove the hook. Also, because of these teeth, they may quickly destroy

ASK THE CHEF FIDDLEHEADS ON THE RIVERBANKS & DINNER PLATE Colin Sifton here with another answer to your question. It is that time again when fiddleheads finally start appearing. It looks like it is going to be a good season so lets try something new this spring. Fiddleheads are an edible fern that grow along river beds and are found all along the Saint John River Valley. These ferns are picked before they open. Once they open, they are no longer edible and this is why the season is so short. Fiddleheads are a great antioxidant and are high in fatty acids, omega 3, omega 6 and are high in iron. Fiddleheads get their name from the shape resembling to head of string instruments. Every year I try and find new ways to eat these New Brunswick treasures. This year as usual I will be making our fiddlehead chowder here at Holly’s, but we were

thinking of some new ways. Fiddlehead salad: Mixing blanched fiddleheads in with red onion, tomato, peppers, some kind of grain like quinoa and feta cheese. Toss this all together and let sit in the fridge for an hour before serving. Try and keep the fiddleheads wrapped up because they get a little hard to eat when they unravel. Another way would be to add fiddleheads to a quiche or an omelet. With its very mild flavour it won’t overpower your dish. You can add most anything to either of these dishes. For example any cheese, onions, tomato, salsa, ham and the list goes on. Try it for something new. The last way I will suggest trying fiddleheads this season is in our fiddlehead chowder. We start by sweating off diced onions, carrots and celery in a pot. We add clear chicken stock but you can use vegetable stock as well. Add diced potatoes and bring to a simmer for one hour. This allows the flavours to come together. Add your

fiddleheads at the end. The reason for this is that fiddleheads will cloud your stock and make it dark and not as appealing in sight. If you do add it early you will have a stronger fiddlehead flavour and maybe that is what you are looking for. Season to taste and there you have fiddlehead chowder. I hope this gives you a few ideas of different ways to use fiddleheads this year. If you have any family favourites that you do with fiddleheads I would love to hear about them. Stop by Holly’s as I am always around. As you know, the fiddlehead season is very short and it will be another 11 m o n t h s before we get them back. 0040

LOCAL BOYS TO PLAY IN NATIONALS Congratulations to Allison Nicole McKellar & Ryan Christopher Beechin on their upcoming wedding, July 4, 2015. A wedding shower will be held in their honour June 6, 2015, at 7 pm, Circle Square Ranch, 461 Snider Mountain Rd.

Everyone Welcome!

The Kings County Lacrosse Association (KCLA) is proud to announce that six of our local players have been selected to represent our province as part of the New Brunswick Midget Lacrosse Team. Local boys Rowan Beach (Todd & Kelli Beach), Jarrett Gendron, Rylan Gendron (Dan & Jennifer Gendron), Joshua LeBlanc (Pierre & Michelle LeBlanc), Brady St. Germain (Sherman & Amy St.Germain) - all of Hampton, and Spierings Verhoeven (Gerald & Tamie Verhoeven) of Sussex will travel to Whitby, Ontario in August to compete in the Canadian National Box Lacrosse Championships.

As a new association with very small numbers, KCLA is very pleased to have such a great representation on the NB Team. The rest of the team is made of up of players from Saint John, KV, Moncton and Sackville. Participation in the Nationals is a great honor for our boys and will involve a great deal of commitment in the coming months to train for the Nationals as well as to fundraise in order to help off-set the costs involved in participating at this level. You can learn more about the lacrosse program in Hampton by visiting the KCLA website at: kingscountylacrosse. com. 3526

Thank You There are too many people to name,“impossible to do.” The support we received since the house ﬁre is overwhelming. THANK-YOU to ALL who planned, donated and attended our beneﬁt. To ALL the musicians who entertained. From the bottom of our hearts, we are forever grateful.

God Bless,

SUSSEX VALE DISTRICT W.I. NEWS The Sussex Vale District WI held a workshop on Multiculture on April 18 at the Millstream Rec Centre. Special guests were residents who became Canadian Citizens after moving to Canada from various other countries. They participated in a panel which discussed their experiences upon arriving and living in New Brunswick. Those on the panel were: Stephanie Coburn, moderator, who arrived in NB several years ago from the USA; Mariela Frits, formerly from Venezuela, who now lives in Millstream; Moranda Van Guest from Holland, now living in Port Elgin; Claudia Lasangua from Vienna Austria and her husband Gilbert Lasangua (from the Philippines before moving to Austria) - they now own a farm at Gibbon Mountain. They regaled us with stories of the culture shock they experienced with regards to climate, seasons and food. Some things that were new to them were snow, isolation, school system, abundance of certain foods such as berries & milk and the unavailability of others such as greens

and certain cheeses. All stated that NB was a very welcoming place and everyone very kind and helpful when they needed a helping hand. Each participant brought a sample of their favourite food from their country. They found NB to be green and lush and lots of space to farm. Also found neighbours very helpful. They are proud to be Canadians and we should all be very proud to live and work in our wonderful Province of New Brunswick. 3527

of fresh air and healthy activity are, along with the satisfaction of working the soil and being your own boss. In New Brunswick, dairy farm numbers have rapidly declined from nearly 600 in 1981 to barely 300 in 2002, and to a mere 206 in 2014, a troubling trend which mirrors that throughout Canada. Also of concern is that the average age of Canadian dairy farmers is 47. To encourage young men and women to become farmers, Dairy

Farmers of New Brunswick is offering three ($1000) Scholarships in the hope that the young men and women who benefit from these scholarships will become tomorrow’s contributors to agriculture in this province.

Fast Facts A full grown dairy cow could drink an entire bathtub full of water in a single day. A newborn calf weighs around 90 pounds when it’s born. That’s as much as an average twelve year old boy. The average cow will produce an average of 30 litres of milk every day. A cow will produce milk for about 10 months after it has given birth. Cows often lay down to rest and digest their food. Cows that lay down tend to produce more milk. It is possible to lead a cow upstairs but not downstairs, because a cow’s knees can’t bend properly to walk back down. Cows have 32 teeth on their bottom jaw and no teeth on their top jaw. Instead they have a tough pad of skin called a dental pad.

A cow produces about 200,000 glasses of milk in her lifetime!

interesting facts we have tracked down. We hope you find a tidbit or two among them to be of interest. Holsteins with their distinctive black and white pattern make up a whopping 94 percent of all dairy cows across Canada, and they produce more milk than any other breed. A mature Holstein cow will typically weigh 1280 pounds and will eat up to 64 pounds of food per day. They were originally bred in the Netherlands, and across Europe the breed is referred to as Friesians. North American Holsteins are selectively bred for milk production, making their bodies smaller and udders larger than beef cattle. Their European cousins, the Friesians, are bred for both beef and milk production.

Holsteins may produce the most milk, but Jersey cows produce milk with the highest percentage of butterfat (4.8 percent) making it ideal for ice cream. It takes 12 pounds of whole milk to make that

France. The Jersey is is typically light brown in colour and relatively small in size, generally weighing under 1000 pounds. they make up about 4 percent of all dairy cattle in Canada. The red or fawn and white Guernsey is most famous for the rich flavour of milk. The Guernsey, as its name implies, was bred on the British Channel Island of Guernsey. The milk has a golden colour due to a high content of beta carotene, a source of Vitamin A. They are slightly larger than the Jerseys, weighing about 1100 pounds.

hovey insurance maybe here

Ayrshires are also popular dairy cattle in New Brunswick. Originating in Scotland they may be any shade of red or brown and white. Their milk is slightly higher in butterfat than that of the Holstein (3.9 percent versus 3.7 percent), but well below that of the Jerseys and Guernseys. Ayrshires are strong rugged medium-sized cattle and generally weighing over 1200 pounds at maturity.

IN THE GARDEN GARDEN CENTRES GALORE!! There is no doubt about it; despite the presence of ravenous deer, the stalwart members of the gardening fraternity seem ever willing to try to beautify their surroundings by purchasing and planting an ever expanding selection of flowers, bushes and trees; the garden centres are bringing in stock that are not often seen in these part, some of it will not over winter, so the buyer needs make sure that the zone that they are in matches with the zone indicated on the plant tag or there will be tears next spring! There is a fair selection of deer repellents on the market and a growing number of potions that gardeners have developed that do a fairly good job; sadly none of these will work on the veggie garden. Salad greens that have been liberally sprayed with concoctions including Murphy Soap Oil and Listerine can really put the damper on supper… so what is a poor

soul to do when the expense of erecting an eight foot fence is beyond their means? GOOD NEWS! Community Gardens are springing up in most communities and well established ones such as the Hampton one, encourages gardeners to grow an extra plot to supply the local Food Basket; along with the joy of being deer free there is an added advantage of working side by side with experienced gardeners who always seem willing to share their knowledge with others. Children are encouraged to join in the project, many flowers can be incorporated into the veggie plot with great advantage, some repel bugs... others collect them for easy capture and dispatch, and still others just make the garden look attractive, great for table decorations as the fruits of your labour are appreciated at meal times. Now that the full moon of June has passed it should be safe to plant almost everything, though care needs to be taken when shopping; plants that seem root bound (bulging out of their containers) are best avoided, or if found irresistible,

should be taken from the pot and set in water for a day with the roots gently teased out before planting. If buying plants from a greenhouse they need to be slowly hardened off; the shock to the system from warm greenhouse to cool earth while sustaining even a brisk breeze can seriously damage the plant....indeed can kill it. So, daily exposure to the outdoors in a sheltered spot and increasing the time spent outside each day will prepare them for life in the garden. If you are in the market for trees, for Heaven’s sake (and for the sake of your roofs, basement walls and plumbing) make sure that the tree you get has enough space to grow to maturity, without causing damage ; check the tag for height and spread, a sugar Maple can grow to a height of 130 ft! Blessings! 0038 Betty Kennett, Resident Green Thumb

POINT OF VIEW DRESS CODE DECORUM What is appropriate? That's the age old question that surfaces in schools and workplaces each and every spring as temperatures rise and people shed those extra layers of clothing. Dress codes are those written and unwritten rules regarding clothing that can be traced back to the middle ages when they were used to identify people from different classes. Since then, dress codes have evolved to signify everything from our social status, occupation and gender to our ethnic, political and religious affiliations. Let's face it, what we wear is governed by the almighty dress code and is a guaranteed topic of discussion in the news, social media and many a lunchroom. Fair or not, we are judged by how we dress. And, right or wrong, what we wear leaves a lasting impression on those around us. The warmer weather invariably spells trouble on the dress code front, especially if you're a high school student. I'm not sure if it's changing fashion trends, or if administrators are just more diligent about enforcing the rules, but it seems to be a daily topic of discussion this time of year. As the mother of a 15 year old daughter entering tenth grade, I see and hear stories almost daily about students who are made to change out of their “inappropriate” outfit while others can wear the same thing and nothing is said. I believe dress codes are important. But, I also believe it's equally important to be fair and consistent with the rules.

I've yet to see or receive a copy of our school's dress code, yet I'm the one shelling out hundreds of dollars to purchase my child's clothing. The first week of school is a little late to be sharing the new, revised or otherwise nonexistent dress code with students. It's important for parents to be diligent and for students to use common sense – crop tops, mini skirts, plunging necklines and short shorts just aren't appropriate. I also know that these are current fashion trends and it is downright difficult to even find an age appropriate dress that falls to the knee or a button shirt with sleeves. There is something to be said for school uniforms (I know my daughter is rolling her eyes in disgust at the suggestion). I wore one for three years and this I know for sure you never have to think about what you're going to wear. You'll never have to worry about breaking the “code” and you won't stand out from your classmates for anything other than your personality. 0032

ummer Camps can be a great opportunity for children of all ages to learn and grow over the summer months, as well as make new friends and develop important social skills as they interact with the other children around them. Let your child be part of the process to decide which camp they want to go to. Give them a few options and let them choose what they’re most interested in. Summer camps can be an immersive experience into a favourite subject, or a brand new experience and a brand new set of people.

August 10-14

To help your child get the most out of Summer camp, encourage them to leave their cellphone at home, or keep it turned off and in their pocket. This will help them to interact with the people around them and better enjoy the fullness of the experience. Whether your child is going away for a week, a month, or maybe it’s just a day camp, keeping a journal about what they did each day and recording the experiences will be a great way to remember their summer for years to come, and it may encourage them to journal on a more regular basis. If your child is going away be sure to include mechanical pencils (and extra lead) for them to journal with. Pens can easily

leak on a hot day and ruin an otherwise perfectly good bag of clothes, and regular pencils need to be sharpened regularly, which could make a mess for other campers who are sharing a tent or cabin. If your child will be going away be sure to follow the packing list provided by the camp. Some camping gear can get expensive so before you buy anything ask friends and relatives if they have anything your child can borrow. Look through local second hand stores for equipment that was gently used and still in good shape. Be sure to purchase a good whistle and a lanyard (Fox40 works best) for your child if they’ll be spending time outdoors. If they wander away from the group or become lost, the whistle will help anyone looking for them find them that much easier. When your child comes home be sure to ask questions about their day, try to make the questions specific and avoid questions that can be answered with a yes or no. Talk to your child about their favourite moment in the day and what they liked about it. Packing some preaddressed & stamped envelopes can be a great way to encourage your child to write to you while they’re away at camp. Be sure to tuck the letters away and give them all back to your child when they’re older. If the camp allows it, a disposable camera can be a great way for your child to remember their time at camp, and it

won’t be a big loss if it’s lost or stolen.

Packing A Backpack For Comfortable Hiking

Whether you’re taking the kids for a hike, sending a child to camp, or heading off into the woods for a sojourn with nature, packing your backpack correctly can really save your back. Place your light items at the bottom of your pack. This is a great place for your sleeping bag, heavy sweaters and extra

clothing. Heavy items should be placed above lighter items and should rest against your back when you’re hiking. This will keep your backpack from pulling down and back against you. If you know you’re going to be hiking over rough or hilly terrain, pack heavy items lower down in your pack to help keep your centre of gravity low to the ground. If you come across unexpected rough country there’s nothing wrong with stopping and re-adjusting your pack. Bulky medium weight items can go in front of the heavy weight items which will be resting against your back. Small items, and anything that you’ll need quick access to should go in outside

pockets so they can be grabbed quickly. Make sure you adjust your shoulder straps correctly. For a normal daypack (similar in size to a large school pack) the top of the backpack should sit one to two inches below your shoulder blades. If you have a hip belt, make sure to have it resting over your hip bones and tight around your waist. The majority of your backpacks’ weight should be carried by your hips and not your shoulders. This will help to ensure that you have a fun and enjoyable day hiking.

MUSINGS SUGAR, SUGAR For the last few years Mike and I have been working on restoring selected tree species in the family woodlot, with the goal of returning it to a closer semblance to what should be growing there in a true Acadian Forest. One of the species we are sadly missing is Sugar Maple. These are the lovely big maple trees that are tapped for maple syrup, the leaf of which is on the Canadian flag. We have LOTS of maple on the property, but they are red maple and a few striped maple, not sugar. For a long time we thought there were absolutely no sugar maple on the 150 acres, but last year we identified one seedling and one mature (but not very healthy) tree. We also transplanted a few dozen little seedlings and at least some of them have survived. Yahoo! Another 30 years or so and they should be big enough to start having their own little seedlings to raise. Hmmm . . . maybe we can help them

along a little more. I am not that patient! A few years ago I committed to daily walking, so most working days I head out from the office for a midday walk. Last year I noticed little sugar maple seedlings sprouting up along my walking route and took some home to transplant to the woods. (Where did you think those seedlings I mentioned earlier came from?) Since I know at least some of them survived, this spring I was on the lookout for more of the little critters. Sure enough, this week they appeared. Now each day I walk I am on the hunt for more baby maple trees. Like the preschooler coming home with a handful of dandelions for Mom, I gleefully celebrate each sugar maple rescue. This year I noticed a few slightly larger seedlings down over a bank. Without a thought I am sliding down after them, in my long dress and sneakers. Of course, once down over the edge I spy another a few feet along, and then

another one past there again. Each was just a few steps further, but then I realize I am well down in there and with my seedlings clutched in one hand and my long skirt in the other so I don’t trip over it, I am not sure I can climb back out. I was not about to sacrifice any of the maples, so I was well motivated and managed to make it back to roadside without mishap. If any of you happened to see some strange old lady crawling out of the ditch, it was likely me. "The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson. 0002
