I am fairly active so I would need an active family who would do a lot of activities with me, then I would need some training, patience and most of all a whole lot of love.

always been drawn to the significance of the past. She recalls camping with her family as a child, when she found a seminar on paleontology and archeology. It was then that she decided to abandon her first choice of digging up dinosaurs to instead study human artifacts. “It’s just really been a life-long passion,” she said. “I’ve always been interested in archeology and the objects. As long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to be an archeologist.” Now in Estevan, her first impressions of the quaint Souris Valley Museum focus on the unique charms that come with a small, rural museum. “I really like the selection (here),” she said. “It’s got some really interesting and unique pieces, things I’ve never seen before. I know they are out there but I personally have never run across them in a museum.” Howick is also very pleased with the projects started by past curator Twyla Exner, who began work on conservation and restoration of some of the objects, particularly those in the outside section that become weathered. “Those projects are usually only undertaken in larger communities,” said Howick. “It’s great that there is a precedent that this city and the community around it will support that.” Howick is from Moose Jaw, but her studies have taken her from Saskatoon to Leicester, England, and internships from England,
back to Moose Jaw, before coming to the Souris Valley. She has an undergraduate degree in archeology and a master’s degree in museum studies, which she received in Leicester. Studying abroad had its challenges, she said, but she was well-equipped to handle them with a little help from one of her University of Saskatchewan professors, who was English. She went Leicester to study because of the notoriety of the museum studies program there, which attracts a wide range of nationalities. “Leicester is one of the oldest schools and they have a really good base and a lot of really great teachers. I went there to get the best (education) I could. Plus I always wanted to go to England, who doesn’t? I took the opportunity.” With students coming from several Asian countries, North America, the United Kingdom and Continental Europe, Howick said she really learned the different perspectives people had when it comes to museums. “You kind of got to understand the full scope of museums. You got to understand from the more basic museums, to the really big museums like the Royal Ontario Museum or the British Museum, or down to one of the more kitschy museums like Pitt Rivers, which is my favourite, in Oxford. It’s just a hidden little wing. It’s its own museum actually, in the back of a natural history museum. It’s kind of secret
and awesome.” Because of that background in archeology, her knowledge is more “object-based” she said. “I am more used to dealing with (objects) and how the community perceives them. I’ve always been really fascinated with how people interact with them, so I’m trying make (Souris Valley) a bit more hands-on. I’m planning on setting up a handling collection, so people can actually hold the objects. Once you have a feel for them in your hand they mean so much more, which is one of the great things about my profession. I can go in the back and pick up anything I want, to study it and to learn about it.” Souris Valley is very tied to the community and its history, said Howick, and that’s why people are so supportive of what goes on there. That’s what keeps people donating artifacts. “Once you provide people with a link to their own history, through that you can branch out to the broader history, so it’s really good for educational minds. By providing this link to history, it also provides pride in the community. I find that once you have a really wellestablished museum that people actually like, people tend to be more proud of the community they’re living in, and people are more connected to it. “I’m a big believer that museums are for the people. They are for anyone who wants to come and learn about their history.
THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 2011
Exploring our national uniqueness key to national community National Aboriginal Day isn’t just about celebrating the uniqueness of our First Nations people, but also about looking within ourselves to find the common ground that Canadians share regardless of the many ancestral backgrounds we have. Becky Wock, the adult program co-ordinator at the Estevan Public Library, is planning a film session that will give an opportunity to discuss the importance of our diversity and its impact on Canadian people. The film being shown is a National Film Board documentary titled Club Native, which explores the way bloodlines and culture play in determining identity for First Nations people in Canada. “By trade I’m a social studies teacher,” said Wock. “I think that culture is important, especially (the culture) where we live is very important. Understanding our country and appreciating our country is important.” She said learning about the differences of people across the country and each province’s own characteristics can bring a smaller sense of community. She
Becky Wock noted just as Canadian im- viewer. “I felt it’s approprimigrants have completely different histories, so do the ate, not just for Aboriginal country’s Aboriginals, as people, but for everyone in those in British Columbia are Canada who, not (really) very different from those in struggles with their identity, but everyone comes from Saskatchewan. “We all get kind of stuck somewhere else. There is in our little world, so being a sense of, ‘how Canadisn exposed to something differ- are all of us?’ which is what ent is good,” Wock said. “I the film looks at. Who’s was just trying to think of a more Canadian? or Who’s different way to recognize the more Native? Those are the event and also to get people questions that are posed, so I thought that is applies not here, to the library.” Wock visited Aborigi- just to Aboriginal Day but nal Affairs online to see everyone.” Showing a film that asks what kind of events were being done across Canada those questions is a good way and decided to show a film. to show that Aboriginal Day After watching Club Native, is a special day for a group she thought it was pretty of people in Canada, while interesting and felt it may be taking into consideration something that offers some that we’re all still Canadians, reflection on the part of the Wock said.
“We all still have the same daily struggles. We’re still human, and we still have the same issues. That’s what I thought was a nice message in the movie.” Aboriginal Day is the beginning of an 11-day Celebrate Canada initiative, culminating on July 1 for Canada Day. The film follows life on a reserve in Quebec and their struggles in how they identify with being Canadian. “It’s a glimpse into their life, but it also can make people aware of their own identity, appreciating our differences and our similarities.” Wock said it’s important for everyone to take a closer look at this unique group of people in Canada. “Just become a little more familiar with what they go through with their lives and realize there are some similarities. This is an opportunity to learn more about what this group of people has to offer and learn about the vast differences amongst Aboriginal people.” The library will be showing the film on June 21 at 6 p.m.

just finished running a campaign on a budget based on fiscal responsibility and reducing the deficit, balancing the books in a handful of years somehow. Canadians swooned so much for this “responsible” policy that they entrusted him with a majority. Clearly cuts need to be made for the deficit to disappear. It seems to me, in order to run a balanced budget with the Conservative tax system, and get rid of the deficit in the government’s projected time span, there can be absolutely no unnecessary spending. Harper must keep his hands off the petty cash. This trip was the definition of unnecessary. In fact, I will be sendJordan Baker ing a letter to Oxford suggesting the next edition read: unnecessary • Estevan Mercury Reporter adj. 1 not necessary. 2 when a prime minister spends $25,000 to see a hockey game in tough economic times. We all have to make sacrifices. As prime minister, Harper has given up some of his freedoms. That is part of the deal in public life, and he knew it when he signed up. If Harper wants to watch some NHL hockey, I hear there’s a team right in Ottawa that plays 41 home games between October and April. With all the time off from his prorogued Parliament, I’m sure he could have found an evening or two to go to the other side of town for a game this past winter. I would be fine with that. He can do what he wants with his money, Harper paid us back. Well goody for him. but his “reimbursement” to the taxpayer is an insult. I’ll wait for the That’s right.

The total cost of his trip? Close to $25,000, as the Challenger, Harper’s ride to the game, costs about $11,000 to fly for an hour, or a $22,000 return trip. Thanks Steve, for reimbursing the Canadian public with money earned while being paid directly by the Canadian public. The trip cost the taxpayer roughly $25,000 and then he pays an extra $2,000 he got from the taxpayer as though that makes it all better. I am not good at math, it’s kind of why I write, but it seems to me, him “paying us back” is actually costing us an extra $2,000 in some horribly twisted way that only Harper would consider debt-clearing. When he paid us back, it felt more like being slapped in the face by a poet, after being punched in the gut by a 1988 Mike Tyson. I know that we can’t expect to monitor what politicians do with the personal wealth that comes from their public salaries. Harper is perfectly entitled to spend his money on things like entertainment, the same as he can spend it on groceries. He can gamble away his prime minister’s salary for all I care. But don’t give it back to the Canadian people as a token way of saying you’re not using our money for your own elaborate pleasure. I don’t know how he actually could reimburse us with money that we had already given him, to cover the cost of something we paid for anyway. They really think in the PMO that this is an “historic” act of goodwill? Am I the only one who thinks their logic is hilarious? This was just a bad decision on Harper’s part. The Conservatives

Welcome to Real Life Susan Sohn
I’m sure you’re wondering, what this Real Life column is all about? Well, it’s a little project that a small town Saskatchewan girl has been working on. That small town girl is me, Susan J. Sohn, born and raised in Wolseley, Saskatchewan. So, what is this all about? Well, Real Life is something that has evolved over time. It all started whilst I was living in Sydney, Australia with my husband and three children. I sat one day with one of my closest friends, sipping tea and talking about our childhoods and how we were choosing to raise our own children. We found ourselves citing many differences. We talked about how we both grew up in small towns and how, as children, life was simple, fun and uncomplicated. We reflected on our own children and realized how life had changed so much. We wondered if they would ever experience the freedom we had or if, in this world of technology and inter-connectedness, that the beauty of what we knew to be childhood was possibly being lost? So, we started to write about the lives we both

knew so well and we developed a website. We posted articles that we thought were brilliant, but as we watched our traffic, we discovered that no one was reading what we were writing. We didn’t care, we kept writing and slowly but surely people started to read and to our surprise (and our original hopes) people liked what we were writing. That all started in 2005 and today we continue to write and host our website. In addition to the site I also host an online talkback radio show that airs every weekday morning. I also write a column for a number of newspapers. Which is where my connection with you starts. I write articles about the “everydayness” of life. I write about things I see through the eyes of my children or the life lessons I’m taught while raising them. I write about current events and how we are all affected or impacted by them. I like to write from the heart, and tell stories that have moved me as a mother, wife, sister, daughter or friend. Simply put, I love to write and share the journey of life through the

written word. I am a fan of common sense (when it comes to pretty much everything) and I often wonder where common sense has disappeared to. I like to question the way our children are being raised today and challenge some of our thinking about how we are doing things. As I mentioned above, I love reflecting on how we were raised (I’m a 41-yearold girl) and what we experienced as children. I reflect on things like the beauty of knowing to come home only because the street lights came on or respecting our teachers because that’s what we were told to do and we didn’t question it. I like to honour the wisdom of those who have travelled the road ahead of us and paved the way in so many ways. I like to share recipes in an effort to see families around dining tables, engaging with one another and just living life. I believe in family and know that our stories begin and end with family, that we begin as people who share a common start and hopefully become people who share a common heart. I believe in community and understand the power of people coming together and living sideby-side. Life is a journey and an incredible adventure, that’s just the way I choose to look at it.

The Grade 5 students at Pleasantdale School are learning how little things can make a big difference. The class motto all year long has been World Changers, whereby the class organizes fundraisers within the school that donate to many causes, from raising money in the school to supporting local charities and the Relay for Life. Now they’re raising money for the people of Slave Lake, Alberta who recently lost most of their town to fires. Angela Smeltzer, the Grade 5 teacher, said the start of the project began with the class deciding who they were as a group, and world changers was what they decided on. “It’s about giving them a chance to organize,” she said, adding, “and guiding them because they need the guidance. You have to train a child to help them go. If you do this with them, they will do these things when they’re adults. They will be the ones volunteering to coach and doing Relay for Life.” This past week they held their final fundraising blitz of the year. Fundraisers this week support Slave Lake, through the Red

ginning of the year,” said Smeltzer. The class organized the school’s Jump Rope for Heart campaign, and when they were deciding on the final fundraisers to do, some of the students wanted to do something for animals, so the Humane Society was the obvious local organization to help. Students had been hearing the news and were very aware of the disaster in Slave Lake, so she said one boy proposed raising some relief money for those who had lost homes and possessions. The 27 students in the class plan the fundraisers, do all the advertising and petitioned the principal for their campaigns. The class organized fundraisers each day this week on their campaign they call Wacky World Changers. The activities included a wacky hair day, an iPod day, a face painting day for the kindergarten to Grade 3 students, a hat and shutter glasses day, and a bake sale and freezies, selling for 50 cents today.

Pospisil, from Vernon, B.C., rallied to beat Chile’s Jorge Aguilar 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 in his fi rst-round match while Dancevic, a native of Niagara Falls, Ont., advanced to the second round with a 6-2, 6-4 win over France’s Stephane Robert, the 10th seed. But Peter Polansky of Thornhill, Ont., wasn’t as lucky. He dropped a 3-6, 7-6 (5), 6-4 decision to fourth-seeded Thomas Schoorel of the Netherlands. *** MONTREAL - Diver Alexandre Despatie has been forced to pull out of next month’s world aquatic championships because of a nagging knee injury. The former world champion and three-time Olympian has been sidelined since March with pain in his left knee. The pain has been ascribed to bursitis and tendinitis — the latter of which is still bothering him. His absence is a loss for the Canadian team as it prepares for the world championships in Shanghai, China; Despatie won two of Canada’s nine medals at the last world championships in Rome. *** DETROIT - Detroit Red Wings assistant Paul MacLean has been hired as the new coach of the Ottawa Senators. Two people familiar with the decision confirmed the move Monday, speaking with The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because it
had not been formally announced by the Senators. The hire was first reported by ESPN.com. The Senators fired head coach Cory Clouston and two assistants in April after the team failed to qualify for the playoffs for the second time in three seasons. INTERNATIONAL MIAMI - The Dallas Mavericks’ win over the Heat is a huge upset for fans in Miami. Making matters worse, an ad in the local paper has mistakenly congratulated the Heat on winning. A full-page ad that ran in Monday’s Miami Herald reads “Congratulations Miami” next to photos of Heat championship T-shirts and hats from Macy’s. One T-shirt reads “Heat 2011 NBA Finals Champions” and the ad shows the Heat’s logo on a hat with the words “NBA Champions.” The ad ran under a story about the Heat’s loss. The newspaper has issued a correction and apologized for any inconvenience. A Macy’s spokeswoman called it an unfortunate error and apologized to Heat fans. The Mavericks beat the Heat 105-95 in game six of the NBA finals on Sunday in Miami. *** BOSTON - The NHL’s competition committee has signed off on changes to rule 48 that will see the blindside aspect of the penalty removed for next season. The group met for several hours on Monday and discussed a broader definition of the rule — something that still needs to be rubber-stamped by the board of governors
when it meets in New York on June 21. Even though the specific language of the revised rule wasn’t finalized, committee members left the meeting confident it would happen in the coming days. “We don’t like some of the hits that we see and we don’t like the results of those hits,” said Dallas Stars general manager Joe Nieuwendyk. “The numbers of concussions are hard to ignore. That was the goal in mind. *** WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. - Tony Stewart figures he’s driven more than 20 types of race cars in his career. He’s about to try another, and it just might be the ride of his life. On Tuesday, the twotime NASCAR Cup champion and Formula One star Lewis Hamilton will take turns navigating Watkins Glen International’s 3.4-mile long course — Stewart in his No. 14 Chevrolet and Hamilton in his McLaren Mercedes MP4-23. Then, they’ll switch cars in what’s dubbed the Mobil 1 Car Swap at The Glen, with Hamilton taking the helm of a non-openwheel race car for the first time and Stewart hopping in an F1 car. It promises to be an eye opener for both, but especially Stewart. F1 cars are long, low and sleek, weigh about 1,400 pounds — a ton less than a Cup car — and are designed for road courses. They’re also sleekly shaped, go well over 200 miles per hour, and are capable of accelerating from zero to 100 and back to zero in six seconds with a V-8 engine that whirrs at 18,000 r.p.m., about double what Stewart is used to.

Sask health workers latest to hit picket lines PROVINCIAL SASKATOON - On Monday about 400 specialized health care workers in Saskatoon are off the job. It’s the second straight day for strike action in the Saskatchewan city. There were 300 health science workers on the picket lines last Friday. The Health Sciences Association says it is sorry for the disruption, but says job action will continue to escalate until its demands are met. The association wants the province to either negotiate in good faith or submit their contract dispute to binding arbitration. It says the province is trying to have it both ways by refusing to go an arbitrator while delivering nothing but “take it or leave it” offers at the negotiating table. NATIONAL TORONTO - Ontario’s Appeal Court will be the stage this week for a landmark case deciding the constitutionality of anti-prostitution laws. A rg u m e n t s b e g a n Monday as the federal and Ontario governments appeal a ruling that struck down three laws affecting the practice of prostitution. An Ontario judge last year said the laws against keeping a common bawdy house, communicating for the purposes of prostitution and living on the avails of the trade were contributing to the danger faced by prostitutes. The sex-trade workers say the laws prevent them from working indoors where it’s safer, taking time to talk to a potential client to assess the risk they pose and hiring bodyguards. There are also seven interveners in the case, representing 19 groups, including the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, the
Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network and the Christian Legal Fellowship. While this decision affects the laws in Ontario, it remains to be seen if courts in other provinces will follow the Ontario decision. *** OTTAWA - Canada is contributing $2 million in new humanitarian assistance to help embattled civilians in Libya. Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird’s announcement comes as the Commons opens a debate on extending the Canada’s military commitment to the NATO-led mission in Libya. Baird says some of the money will support people subjected to sexual violence as a tool of war. In March, Canada sent fighter jets, patrol planes, aerial tankers and a warship to join a United Nations-sanctioned mission to protect civilians from Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi. The Harper government wants to extend that initial three-month commitment to the end of September. *** HALIFAX - As the annual East Cost seal hunt draws to a close, federal officials are confirming this season was one of the worst since the early 1990s. The total number of harp seals killed in the commercial slaughter was about 38,000 — less than 10 per cent of the allowable catch. Statistics from the federal Fisheries Department show last season’s catch was almost twice that size. Poor ice conditions and a shrinking world market are largely to blame. The European Union’s 27 member states banned the importation of seal products last year, a move that has depressed pelt
prices. Last week, the Canadian government confirmed it will move ahead with its bid to challenge the ban through the World Trade Organization.

INTERNATIONAL JAKARTA, Indonesia - Indonesian police say they have arrested a suspected terrorist sought since 2002 for his role in the Bali bombing that killed 202 people. National police spokesman Brig. Gen. Anton Bachrul Alam said Tuesday that Heru Kuncoro was captured June 9 in Pekalongan in central Java. He is among the 16 people arrested in recent days on suspicion of plotting cyanide attacks against police. Police say Kuncoro was a facilitator who purchased electronic equipment for the 2002 bombing on the tourist island. He fled to the Philippines in 2003. Before the Bali bombing, he took part in paramilitary training in Maluku during a sectarian war between Muslims and Christians in which up to 9,000 people died between 1999 and 2002. *** NAIROBI, Kenya - A Red Cross spokeswoman says at least two people are dead and six injured after a six-story building under construction collapsed in Kenya’s capital. More are reportedly trapped. Nelly Muluka said Tuesday that the Red Cross has a team on site. Fred Majiwa, a spokesman for an ambulance service, said that six people were pulled out of the rubble. He said more are believed to be trapped. The collapsed building is on Nairobi’s outskirts, near its international airport.

RM remains under state of emergency
KITE FESTIVAL
WINDSCAPE
The local state of emergency declaration for the Rural Municipality of Estevan will remain in effect. Greg Hoffort, administrator for the RM, said council will review the situation each week to discuss whether the declaration should be removed. That practice will continue week by week until the things improve across the RM. “The river is not the least of our worries,” said Hoffort. “It is a concern, but we’ve got other places to worry about too.” More roads are being overtaken by water run-off, and council is working on

developing traffic plans for people who require access to certain areas. They are also canvassing drainage plans that will help with the flood events around the municipality. Road bans have been extended another two weeks, after the decision was made at the June 7 council meeting. Council discussed physician recruitment and retention, which it is working on in co-operation with the City of Estevan. The RM issued six new development permits and four new oil well permits. One new oil flow line was approved by council.
Thermostat Wars Q: I’m having kind of a battle with my mother-inlaw. She insists on dialing the thermostat all the way down to the left (50 degrees F.) in the morning, saying that “this will cool down the house faster.” Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t this stress out the air conditioner? Is there a better way to cool down the house? How can I convince her of it? -- Jerry in Little Rock, Ark. A: It’s definitely not the most efficient way to cool a house, although I’m not sure if my advice will help convince your mother-in-law. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink, one adage goes. Still, it’s worth a try, as this kind of extreme thermostat exercise costs money in terms of the power used to generate all that cool air. Many people try to save
money by turning the air conditioning unit completely off after the sun goes down. This can work, but as your mother-in-law has found out, once the summer sun comes up, the house takes longer to cool down. Dropping the thermostat temperature selector 20 degrees does not make this process any faster. A more efficient way to keep the house at a comfortable temperature would be to raise the thermostat just four to six degrees at night (or when she’s out of the house for a long time during the day). In the morning, or when she returns from work or her shopping trip, she should then set the thermostat back down to the daytime temperature that is most comfortable for her. An even better way -especially if she just keeps cranking that old analog thermostat down -- would be to install a digital thermostat. These can be installed in the same spot as the old analog thermostat, usually with the same wiring.
The advantage of the digital thermostat is twofold: First, it can be set at exactly the temperature she wants. Second, it can be programmed to automatically raise or lower the temperature at the times you specify. So, if she wants the house to be warmer at night, the digital thermostat can be programmed to raise the temperature until a set time ... say, 6 a.m., when it will lower the temperature to her preferred daytime levels. HOME TIP: To improve cooling efficiency and energy consumption, inspect your home’s insulation and replace any that’s damaged or substandard. Send your questions or home tips to ask@thisisahammer.com, or write This Is a Hammer, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 328536475. When in doubt as to whether you can safely or effectively complete a project, consult a professional contractor. (c) 2011 King Features Synd., Inc.

Pack Tasty Stromboli in Your Picnic Basket Picnics are the best excuse for a great family get-together. And preparing for the picnic can provide even more family fun when you assemble and bake stromboli, an easyto-make Italian sandwich that bursts with flavor. Choose ingredients according to taste. You may even make an extra peanut butter and jelly version for your pint-size picnickers. Our favorite version and one that will be on our weekend menu this summer is the following easy recipe that makes two stromboli rolls to feed 4-6. Ingredients: --1 loaf frozen whitebread dough, thawed and still cool such as Rhodes brand
--Olive oil --4 ounces fresh whole spinach leaves, washed and dry --6 slices pastrami or ham --6 slices provolone cheese --6 slices mozzarella cheese --1/2 cup sliced red pepper (fresh or processed in oil) Here’s the fun: 1. Cut the loaf of thawed dough in half and roll out each half into a 12-by-8-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Your kids might want to bring out a ruler or measuring tape to check the size as you stretch the dough into shape. 2. Let kids brush the dough lightly with olive oil. Place one-fourth of the spinach leaves over each half of dough, leaving about a 1-inch border all around where there will be no filling. Top the spinach with a layer of pastrami or ham, provolone, the remaining spinach, mozzarella and red pepper.
Estevan Drag Racing Association Inc. Regrets to announce that the Season Opener Race Scheduled for Sunday, June 19 has been CANCELLED Due to conditions created by the bad weather.
3. Starting from the long side, roll it up, jelly-roll fashion, and secure seams carefully by pinching the dough to keep it tightly closed while baking. Place the rolls seam-side down on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Score the top of each roll with a small knife or kitchen scissors, making a few short slits. Cover with a cloth and let rise 20-30 minutes at room temperature. 4. Bake at 325 F for about 30 minutes or until golden brown. To get a nice, crisp crust, baste several times with water or a light coating of oil during baking. Serve warm or cool, and cut slices about 1 inch thick for serving. If you are headed to a picnic spot, wrap the entire roll in aluminum foil and transport in a cooler to keep fresh. Slice when you arrive at your destination. Tip: Pour marinara sauce in small bowls for a tangy dipping sauce.

Three-Cheese Pizza This recipe features three cheeses with distinctly different textures and flavors -- delicate, fresh mozzarella, creamy ricotta and chewy Pecorino Romano. 1 pound fresh pizza dough 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, coarsely shredded 1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese 1/3 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese

second oiled cookie sheet and remaining dough. 3. Place all 4 pieces of dough, oiled side down, on hot grill grate. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until grill marks appear on underside (dough will stiffen and puff). 4. With tongs, turn crusts over. Working quickly, top crusts with mozzarella; then dollop with ricotta and sprinkle with Pecorino Romano cheese and pepper. Cover grill and cook pizzas 3 to 4 minutes longer or until undersides are evenly browned and cooked through. 5. Transfer to cutting board; sprinkle tops of pizzas with parsley. Cut into wedges. Makes 4 servings. Tip: Look for fresh pizza dough in the dairy section of your supermarket, usually sold near the tortillas. (Frozen pizza dough is also available, but it takes several hours to thaw before it can be used.) Or you can purchase dough from a local pizzeria; they’ll usually sell it to you in 1-pound balls if you ask. • Each serving: About 435 calories, 15g total fat (7g saturated), 38mg cholesterol, 260mg sodium, 56g total carbohydrate, 2g dietary fiber, 18g protein.

THE TRADER EXPRESS, FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 2011
Plant a Salad Bar Gardens and salads go together! You don’t have to have a large yard space to plant a salad garden. Short rows or even large patio containers of your favorite salad ingredients will add variety to your plate. While some of the first produce from spring gardens are greens like spinach and lettuce, our gardens can be our salad bar throughout the growing season. As you plan to plant your garden, plant the vegetables you’ll need as ingredients. Here is a list for starters: Cabbage; Sweet peppers (red and green); Green Onions; Carrots; Beans (Green and Wax); Fresh Dill; Spinach; Lettuce; Tomatoes; Green Peas; Broccoli; Fresh Herbs. With these few ingredients from your garden, some salads you could prepare include: Copper Pennies (marinated carrots); Slaw; Three-Bean Salad; Spinach Salad; Layered Lettuce; Mari-
nated Vegetables; and Carrot-Raisin Salad. Add your favorite to the list. Fresh vegetables provide fiber to our diets along with ample vitamins A and C. They generally are low-calorie until we add the sauces and dressings in preparation. But, we can make some adaptations to our home-prepared dressings, so they taste terrifi c and contain less oil-and fewer calories. The trick to making low-calorie dressings is to substitute pectin (yes the kind we make jams and jellies with) for part or all of the oil. The pectin thickens the mixture to look and pour like dressings. To adapt your homemade salad dressing recipe, follow these easy steps. 1. Replace all or part of the oil in the recipe with vegetable broth or water. It’s your call on the amount. 2. Figure the total amount of liquid in your recipe. Add up the amount of water, vinegar, syrup, juice, etc. 3. For every 1 1/2 cups liquid, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of dry pectin (depends on thickness desired). 4. Allow your mixture to refrigerate several hours
to thicken. You can put it on the salad as your recipe directs or store in a shakable container. Some dressings on salads are great on other types of salads too! SUPER SUPPER SALAD This is my “go-to” salad when I want to combine the best vegetables from my garden with what I already have on hand in my refrigerator and pantry. 1 (6 ounce) package deli turkey, chicken, roast beef or ham (or leftover cooked meats), sliced thinly, or 4 hard-cooked eggs, sliced into quarters 6 to 8 ounces of fresh salad greens or spinach 1 (15 ounce) can lowsodium black beans, cannellini or kidney beans, drained and rinsed 8 to 10 cherry tomatoes 1 large peach, pear or apple, pit or core removed and sliced; or 1/2 melon, peeled, seeded and cut into slices or cubes; or 1/4 cup dried fruits (raisins, figs, craisins, prunes) 1 medium red bell pepper, seeds and ribs removed, and diced; or 1 small cucumber, sliced; or 1 cup of cooked or raw sliced broccoli or cauliflower florets
2 or 3 leaves or sprigs of fresh herbs (basil, thyme, oregano, chives, parsley, etc.), finely minced 1/4 cup sliced almonds, walnut halves, soynuts or sunflower seeds 1/4 cup low-fat salad dressing Place the greens in a large bowl along with the meat, beans, tomatoes, fruit and vegetables. Sprinkle on the herbs and nuts. Drizzle salad with low-fat dressing and toss to combine.

Get Ready For Gift Ideas for College-Bound Grads Graduation season is right around the corner and scores of high schoolers are preparing to leave the nest for the first time. Parents of high school seniors often want to find a gift that both symbolizes the significance of graduation and proves useful in the fall when kids take their first step onto a college campus. Though most high school kids would love a new car for graduation, such a gift is not within reach for most parents nor is it practical, as many colleges don't allow incoming freshmen to have cars on campus. While they might not be a new car, the following gifts can put a smile on a new grad's face and prove useful at college, too. * Gaming console: Gamers may love to pack the latest gaming console among their belongings when they head off to college this fall. Though parents might want their kids hitting the books instead of playing video games, a gaming console
computer's accessories. For example, a new set of computer speakers can increase a computer's functionality and might even serve as a less bulky home theater system.
can provide a welcome respite for college kids stressing out over their studies. In addition, gaming consoles can be great ice-breakers, providing the avenue by which incoming freshmen can meet and befriend their fellow dorm dwellers. Some interactive gaming consoles, including the Nintendo Wii, can even help freshmen fight off the infamous "Freshman 15," by encouraging physically active gaming. * Television: Like gaming consoles, new televisions make great ice-breakers at college. Chances are, your favorite high schooler has grown accustomed to Mom and Dad's home theater system. While kids likely won't be able to fit such a system in their dorm room, a flatscreen TV can fit into any dorm room and give freshmen a little home away from home. * Computer: Today's computers are more affordable than ever, and every
* Money: Though it's not incredibly personal, money is a gift no collegebound recent graduate will turn down. Kids are going to need money more than ever before while they're at college, where they'll need to buy books, food and cover their social expenses. Parents might not want to give their favorite new grads money for graduation, but such a gift makes perfect sense for aunts, uncles or other distant relatives.
A new gaming console can make a graduation gift for college-bound high school grads. incoming freshman can make good use of a new computer. When shopping, keep laptop computers in mind, as kids can take laptops along with them to class and study groups. If
grads already have a new or relatively new computer, consider upgrading the
It's nearly impossible to attend a graduation ceremony and not hear the processional, "Pomp and Circumstance." The march has become a graduation staple, but the tune was actually written for a different purpose. Sir Edward Elgar is the composer behind "Pomp and Circumstance," which was named after a line from William Shakespeare's "Othello." Sir Edward composed the song in 1901, and the march was intended for the coronation of King Edward VII. When Elgar received
an honorary doctorate from Yale University in 1905, the march was played in his honor as a recessional. Once Yale used the march, other universities began to play the march as well. Eventually it became the trendy thing to do and "Pomp and Circumstance" became forever ingrained in graduation custom. Today it is hard to imagine a commencement ceremony without the famed processional and the requisite cap, tassel and gown.

* Furniture: Most dorm rooms are anything but roomy, but college-bound grads are still going to need some furniture. Consider functional furniture, such as bins, organizers or a

Dad
Celebrate dad with humorous and sincere Father’s Day quotations As we honor the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and uncles in our lives, here are some inspirational and funny words to live by. "To be a successful father, there's one absolute rule: when you have a kid, don't look at it for the first two years." -- Ernest Hemingway "Never raise your hand to your kids. It
leaves your groin unprotected." -- Red Buttons "By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong." -- Charles Wadsworth "I'm so ugly, my father carries around a picture of the kid who came with his wallet." -- Rodney Dangerfield
"Any man can be a father, but it takes a special person to be a dad." -- Proverb "When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when Igot to be twentyone, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years." -- Mark Twain.
"A father is always making his baby into a little woman. And when she is woman he turns her back again." -- Enid Bagnold "One father is more than a hundred school-
masters." -- George Herbert "If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any
fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right." -- Bill Cosby "A father carries pictures where his money used to be." -- Author unknown

By Samantha Weaver • It was philosopher, historian, mathematician and Nobel Prize winner Bertrand Russell who made the following sage observation: “In all affairs it’s a healthy thing now and then to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted.” • The giant Pacific octopus, the largest octopus in the world, is a prolific breeder. Extremely prolific. The female lays approximately 56,000 eggs, all at once. And since, according to experts, the population is stable, of those 56,000 eggs, only two survive to reproduce. • Harry Houdini is best known as a magician and an escape artist, but he also performed amazing stunts. In the early days of aviation, he flew in an airplane to an altitude of 3,000 feet, then jumped off the plane onto another one -- while wearing handcuffs. • A recent study conducted by researchers at a university in Sweden found
that if a person has to commute longer than 45 minutes to work, he or she is 40 percent more likely to get divorced. • There are more languages and dialects spoken in India than in any other country in the world: in excess of 1,600 at last count. • If you’re planning a trip to Marrakesh, Morocco, be sure to visit the Koutoubiya minaret. In 1195 Sultan Yakub al Mansur commanded that the minaret be built in thanksgiving for a military victory, and the tower is lovely. The structure’s unique attribute, however, is not visible -- it’s olfactory. When the minaret was being built, 960 sacks of musk were mixed in with the mortar, and the odor can still be detected today. *** Thought for the Day: “Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” -- Voltaire (c) 2011 King Features Synd., Inc.

• Use a measuring cup when adding detergent to the washer. You’ll avoid using too much detergent, which can get costly. You’ll also avoid having residual soap left in the fabric. • If you have air conditioning, use a programmable thermostat. You can set it to a higher temperature overnight, when it’s naturally cooler, and have it cool down the house right about the time you’ll get home, so there’s no wasted energy cooling a house with no one in it. • “When putting woody-stemmed flowers, such as roses, in a vase, cut the stem diagonally and whack with a small mallet. It will absorb water much better this way.” -- A.R. in
• Save small milk cartons and wash well. Fill with water and freeze. You can use these in your picnic basket for an easy cold pack to keep foods chilled. • Too many suds in the sink? Try sprinkling them with salt. The foam will settle down quickly! • “Shower rings (the hooks that hold your shower curtain to the curtain bar) can be used for lots of things. I keep one in my sewing basket to hold safety pins. It’s terrific, and the pins are orderly and easy to find.” -- E.L. in Utah Send your tips to Now Here’s a Tip, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

Dublin-based author, producer and director Michael Feeney Callan spent more than a decade researching the life of Robert Redford, and his meticulous research and obvious respect for the actor are evident in his new book. Redford was born in 1936 in Santa Monica, Calif. While attending Van Nuys High School, he boosted hubcaps and seemed destined for trouble. Although his grades were lackluster, he managed to get a baseball scholarship to the University of Colorado, but flunked out because of his tendency to party. He enrolled at the Pratt School of Art and then spent time in Europe before returning to New York. While studying at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, he discovered that he wanted to be an actor. Although he appeared in several films, it was his breakout role in 1969 with Paul Newman in “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” that helped make him an international star. Within a decade, he had become box-office gold as one of America’s most popular leading men. He won his first Oscar, not for acting, but for his work as a director in the seminal film “Ordinary People.” He appeared in several blockbusters, including “All The President’s Men,” “The Sting” and “The Way We Were.” His success as an actor was sometimes overshadowed by his directing skills in films such as “A River Runs Through It,” “Quiz Show” and most recently “The Conspirator.” He’s also co-starred in at least six stage productions. In 1990, Redford established the Sundance Institute in Utah in order to help and guide young filmmakers. During the past several decades, he also has gained attention as an environmentalist. Callan’s book documenting how a juvenile delinquent, sometimes artist and finally actor/director became such an American icon, is truly a fascinating story. It is a candid, accessible portrait that makes for perfect summer reading. (c) 2011 King Features Synd., Inc.

China Setting Q: I have a 12-place setting of American Limoges china in the Regency pattern. I am certain the set is at least 50 years old, and it is in excellent condition. Just one cup is missing. Where and how can I sell this set? -- Adam Sioux Falls, S.D. A: Replacements LTD is one of the better outlets for out-of-production china, silver and crystal. I checked the company’s website and discovered three Regency patterns: Bouquet, Monsoon and The Regency. Typical prices for The Regency pattern include a saucer, $5.99; a bread and butter plate, $5.24; and a soup bowl, $13.49. Contact the company to see if there is any interest in the set you have. Its phone number is 1-800-REPLACE (737-5223). The phone lines are open until 10 p.m. EDT, seven days a week. *** Q: I have a dog tag with name and serial number on it, and other military items such as a non-com officer’s shirt with stripes, overseas bars and Ranger patch. Can you give me an idea of how to determine values? I am a vet. -- Murray, Brooklyn, N.Y. A: So am I. One of the better references for military items is “Warman’s World War II Collectibles: Identification and Price Guide” by John F. Graf, editor of Military Trader magazine. This excellent guide features more than 3,000 items with up-to-date prices. It is available from www.krause.com for $24.99, plus postage and handling. *** Q: I have a 1910 slot machine manufactured by Caille Brothers and Company. It still works. I purchased it in about 1969 for a couple of hundred dollars. -- Richard, Albuquerque, N.M. A: Your slot machine sounds interesting, and I think you should contact a company that deals in used slots such as Atlantic City Coin and Slot Service, 9180 Coors Blvd., 1109, Albuquerque, NM 87120. A second source is Ammonite Gaming, Inc., 22890 Forest Road, Rapid City, SD 57702; 605-355-9770. *** Q: My wife has a collection of “Wee Forest Folk” mice, and we would like to sell them. Any suggestions? -- Harry, Sun City, Ariz. A: You might contact http://weeforestfolkclub.org, the official website for collectors. Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@aol.com. Due to the large volume of mail he receives, Mr. Cox is unable to personally answer all reader questions.

SOUTHEAST AGRINEWS, FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 2011
OPINION by Norm Park for AgriNews
Discussing the big change By Norm Park for Agri-news The great Canadian Wheat Board debate has been raging for years, but it made its way back to the spotlight position again with the recent arrival of a Conservative majority government. There is nothing surreptitious about the Prime Minister’s Office wanting the CWB gone, or at least diminished and pretty well dismantled compared with its current role as the single-
desk seller of wheat and barley produced by Western Canadian farmers. A move toward such regulatory changes was made over a year ago under the minority Conservative government and it failed. Since the CWB exists at the pleasure of the federal government, there probably isn’t much it can do when the vote comes around again. Of course the legislation surrounding the CWB suggests that it should be the producer/members and their mostly elected board
of directors who make the decision, but we suspect there will be a few avenues that the Harper government can, and will, take to circumvent that scenario since they pretty well know what the outcomes will be if the members get to vote ... a narrow victory for retention of the current system. That is probably, but not certainly, guaranteed. And that’s why the CWB debate is such a hugely controversial and interesting one, since there is no slam-dunk clearness as

to what the producers really do want. It’s clear that there are a good number of them who want the opportunity to try something different. The world of marketing has changed dramatically over the past two decades and producers aren’t as beholden to the major grain marketers as they were back in the 1930s ... or are they? There is no doubt about it, the CWB has clout when it comes to world marketing, but with that singledesk clout removed from their negotiating package, stripped of any assurances and with very few real assets or transportation modes at their disposal, their existence as a mere alternative will probably be short lived, just like similar agencies that fell apart in places like Australia. So it comes down to the final closing arguments for the CWB board of directors and the government mandarins who will establish the policy that will lead to the vote in the House of Commons and Senate that will eventually extinguish the CWB. For many producers who for years have railed against the monopolistic practices of the CWB, it will be a joyful good riddance sendoff. For others, it will be a head shaking time and no
doubt there will be a few veterans who will remind those who are heading into self-marketing, why the wheat board came into existence in the first place, as a protective measure against the grain marketers who were taking advantage of their vulnerable situations. So are producers heading back to vulnerable? We’re not so sure. But they’ll have to be sharp and quick witted and very businesslike in their approach to selling and moving their product in this brave new world. But it’s not like it hasn’t been done before. Other provinces, countries and yes, even in Western Canada with non-board grains and produce, there doesn’t appear to be any real disconnect. The markets come calling, the producers do what they do best, and then turn into business owners to get that product to the rightful purchaser in a timely fashion using whatever resources are provided them by the major marketers. Sometimes it will be cut and dried and even the most devoted CWB fan will be wondering why he or she made such a big fuss out of saying goodbye to this 20th century model when there were all these additional riches awaiting him on the other side of the CWB ... this

free market world. But we expect there will also be times when producers wished they still had that protective arm of the CWB to rely on. You know, those periods when the commodity speculators will rule the marketing model or when world events totally skew the orderly systems that we’ve come to appreciate in North America. Those are just a couple of examples of what will eventually happen, but is the fear of these unknown factors big enough to warrant the salvation of the CWB and its $5 billion grain marketing strength? Naturally, the proclamations uttered by the federal government noting that the CWB is on its way out, that it is just a matter of time, makes the whole debate moot, we suppose. Western Canadian producers are going to head into this whole brave new world, whether or not they approve of the move or the manner in which it will be carried out. In this case, it’s those with the most seats filled in the House of Commons who will set the agenda and the results while farmers and the rest of us can sit back and see what happens. It will most assuredly lead to further debate regarding other supply side protective legislation such as those in the poultry and dairy industries. This could be a much to-do about nothing situation or it might lead to some after shocks that will resonate for years to come, not only in grain marketing but in other related commodities. One thing we do know is there will be change and we all know how we hate change, but we also know that Western Canadian farmers are more adept at adopting change than any other group we can think of outside of the cyber-techie world where changes are required it seems, within every 24-hour work-day cycle. We’re counting on the resiliency of our farmers to find a way through this marketing maze and we predict they’ll come out on the other side with smiles on the faces. Now if we could only get rid of of this water and mud around here, these farmers we talk about might be able to get some actual work done so they can provide some crops that can be sold in whatever format that is placed before them.

Some seeding completed, others having to pack it in Seeding was 98 per cent completed in northwest Saskatchewan as of June 9, but barely 40 per cent done in southeast Saskatchewan and, in fact, less than that in certain sectors including those immediately around Estevan and Weyburn. Across the entire province, the seeding pace was at 79 per cent completion, in spite of a slower than average week due to recent rains. That put the pace slightly ahead of last year’s. But now producers
have pretty well run out of time. If it’s not in the ground now, well forget about it, there isn’t enough time left in the growing season to get it in, up and down and into bins. The recent Saskatchewan crop report indicated that there is a surplus of water on 33 per cent of the province’s cropland while another 59 per cent has adequate levels of moisture with a shortfall reported on only eight per cent. Crop specialists are
suggesting that even the most optimistic producers will now have to yield to the inevitable if they don’t have their seed in the ground at this point since mid-June is about the latest anyone can seed and still retain any kind of expectation of getting something harvested. That means the farmers in this waterlogged, lagging area of the province are having to holler “uncle” and give in to Mother Nature this time around, but only after a valiant effort.
The southwest part of the province was 77 per cent seeded as of June 9 while 83 per cent was done in the east
central region which was well behind schedule last year but not as bad this time. Those areas that are
now completed, along with northwest, included the west central and northeast regions.
Renewable diesel production gets green light Insurance for “This is an excellent start in developfarmers unable ing the renewable diesel industry in Saskatchewan.” to access land Saskatchewan Crop Insurance customers will be compensated for crop land they are unable to seed because of impassable roads caused by excess moisture. Compensation will be provided through the Crop Insurance’s Unseeded Acreage Benefit. “Again this spring, many Prairie farmers faced the prospect of not being able to get seed in the ground because of the extreme wet conditions,” federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz said. “I am pleased to work with the province of Saskatchewan to develop flexible programming which will allow both governments to respond effectively in situations such as this.” “Excess moisture has had a devastating impact on farmland and roads this spring,” said Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister Bob Bjornerud. “This is a practical, common sense change to crop insurance which I hope will help producers who are unable to access their fields because their roads have been washed out.” In 2011 the Unseeded Acreage Benefit has been increased from $50 to $70 per eligible acre for land that is too wet to seed or is inaccessible due to excess moisture. Eligible acres are determined by a calculation involving a seeding intensity, insurance intensity and a five per cent deductible. “We appreciate this program change because RM councils are doing everything they can to make all their roads passable, but we know with a spring like this some roads were impossible to repair in time for seeding,” Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities president David Marit said. Producers who cannot access their land due to excess moisture were asked to contact their local Crop Insurance office. The deadline for customers to register an Unseeded Acreage Benefit claim is June 25. Detailed program information is available at any Crop Insurance office, by calling 1-888-935-0000 or by visiting www.saskcropinsurance.com.
Saskatchewan’s government introduced the Renewable Diesel Act in the legislature in early April, setting the stage to grow the renewable diesel industry in the province. “This is an excellent start in developing the renewable diesel industry in Saskatchewan,” Enterprise Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “It is good for the economy, good for our environment and good for Saskatchewan canola producers. This began as a recommendation from Enterprise Saskatchewan’s board of directors and sector team. Enterprise Sas-

katchewan will meet with stakeholders to continue consultations on related issues, as well as to finalize regulations in the coming months.” “Biodiesel is a better way to drive and an innovative way to fuel our economy,” Renewable Fuels Association president Gordon Qualattini said. “The Renewable Diesel Act will help moderate price by adding to our fuel
supply, create new jobs and benefit farmers and drivers alike. The new legislation calls for fuel distributors to include two per cent renewable diesel content in diesel fuel sold in Saskatchewan as of July 1, 2012 on an annual average basis. The legislation also establishes a mechanism to administer and monitor compliance of the fuel mandate.” “This provincial mandate along with the recent
federal government’s biofuels announcement helps to ensure that alternative energy programs and opportunities are shared initiatives across the country,” Milligan Bio-Tech Inc. president and CEO Joe Holash said. “The residents of Saskatchewan should feel good about their government’s decision to participate in the efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Canada.” A renewable diesel program was introduced in the 2011-12 provincial budget and it provides $26 million over the next five years in direct incentives to eligible renewable diesel producers.
Ten top students scoop agriculture scholarships In mid-May Saskatchewan Agricultural Minister Bob Bjornerud announced the 10 recipients of the 2011 Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship. Three of the recipients are from southeast Saskatchewan. These Grade 12 students will be awarded $1,000 each toward their agriculture-related post-secondary education. Receiving the scholarships are: Taylor Bohay, Regina; Chelsea Hebert, Moosomin; Traci Henderson, Gainsborough; Jessica Hextall, Grenfell; Jennifer Klaassen, Rosthern; Danica Lucyshyn, Saskatoon; Kelsey Richardson, Delisle; Blake Tebbutt, Nipawin; Melissa Turner, Springside and Erica Yaskowich, Wynyard. “Youth are the future of agriculture and it is important we work to encourage them to pursue careers in farming, ranching and other areas of the industry,” Bjornerud said. “I would like to congratulate the 10 scholarship recipients and wish them the best in their studies.” Applicants submitted either a 500-word essay or a three-minute video essay on one of two topics: the future
of agriculture in Saskatchewan over the next 10 to 15 years; or agriculture as a way to solve problems facing the world (food shortages, health problems, etc.). Details and information regarding the 2012 Saskatchewan Agriculture Student Scholarship will be announced this fall.

SOUTHEAST AGRINEWS, FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 2011
When it’s wet, watch for blackleg Concerns over blackleg in canola have increased in Western Canada throughout the past few seasons. With wet conditions this spring and increased canola production under shortened rotations, protecting a valuable canola crop is more important than ever. With the potential to reduce lucrative canola yields, blackleg is a disease that needs proactive measures to prevent infection. Technical specialists such as Glen Forster with BASF offer a number of tips to help growers protect their investments. The first suggestion trotted out for consideration is the need to inspect the crop regularly. Fields with the greatest risk for blackleg are those where there has been a yield loss as a result of blackleg in previous years and varieties with lower blackleg disease ratings are grown under short rota-
tions. Early symptoms of blackleg appear as lesions or cotyledons on the first true leaves. Lesions are round or irregular, often dotted with numerous black pyonidia — as they mature and become greyish in colour and form on the stem. The next suggestion for producers is to exercise
good crop management. Blackleg inoculum overwinters in crop residues
and will be more prevalent where canola is seeded under tight rotations. Growers
should use sound crop rotation as well as rotate canola varieties to help manage blackleg inoculum levels on a farm. The third helpful hint is to apply fungicides preventively. Fungicides should be used preventively before symptoms appear, effectively stopping the disease before it starts. Some products can be tank mixed with all canola herbicide systems and applied at herbicide time before the appearance of blackleg disease symptoms. The next idea is to keep the crop healthy. When plants are not challenged by disease they are able to grow more efficiently and tolerate short periods of cold, heat
and drought. Fungicides like Headline protect against blackleg by providing the plant with health benefits to produce stronger stems, bigger leaves and overall health. Then the final recommendation is to simply be aware of other diseases. Blackleg is only part of the issue. Scierotinia is another important canola disease that thrives in wet conditions. An early season application of fungicide to control blackleg followed by an application of a product such as Lance at the 20 to 50 per cent bloom stage to control scierotinia, will provide the best possible protection for canola.

Wheat Growers group applauds appointment The Western Canadian Wheat Growers said they are pleased to see the re-appointment of Gerry Ritz as the federal minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister for the Canadian Wheat Board. They made the observation in a release issued May 18, shortly after the cabinet appointments were announced by Prime Minister Stephen Harper. “Minister Ritz is up-to-speed on all the files and can hit the ground running,” said Kevin Bender, president of the Wheat Growers. “He has a good depth of knowledge on the issues and a strong determination to improve our industry.” The WCWG went on to state that while there are many issues facing agriculture, the key to improving farm incomes and prosperity in Western Canada will be to move forward quickly on legislation to create an open market for wheat and barley. “The transition to marketing choice should happen as quickly and smoothly as possible,” said Bender. “We are confident Minister Ritz has the ability and determination to successfully see this through.” The Wheat Growers added they will also be looking to the federal government to take action on other important files, including railway service reforms, modernizing the Canadian Grain Act and the successful conclusion of trade agreements including a pact with the European Union. “There is a good deal of optimism and great growth potential in the Western Canadian agriculture sector,” Bender said. “We urge Minister Ritz and his colleagues to give us the ability to capitalize on these growth opportunities as soon as possible.”
