Bag up, Souris! The School needs your help by Darci Semeschuk Bag up, Souris! This is the message the Souris Social Justice Fighters are sending out to the community. Along with that message is a plea to help them save the environment and get plastic bags out of the landfill. According to Souris School representative, Bev Sobry, the Social Justice Fighters are determined to make a difference one step at a time. They are asking the community to save their plastic shopping bags, which currently aren’t sent to the Recycling Depot, and bring them to the school where they will be counted, packed, picked up by the Gardewine Group, and delivered to Safeway Canada. From there they will be sent to Trek for recycling. The deadline for having your plastic bags to Souris School is October 30. Sobry says that some people may not be able to get to the School to make their donation and for their convenience, the School has partnered with the Souris Plaindealer. Bags can be
left there Monday Thursday, 9:00 a.m. 4:00 p.m. and they will be delivered to the School each week. “We need everyone to take part in this project,” stated Sobry. “In addition to working towards a better world, the school in Manitoba that collects the most bags in October will receive a plastic bag recycled bench.” A 2009 Winnipeg Free Press article written by Nick Martin first reported the Safeway Canada program. He had this to say about it: “It turns out Safeway recycles 40,000 pounds of plastic bags per month in Manitoba. All plastic bags left at their stores get recycled, and they’ll accept all bags, not just store brand. White plastic bags are the majority, and those get sold to a company called Trek Plastic that turns them into PVC lumber.” Here’s an interesting fact: Along with other products used in the making of Trek lumber, the average 500-square foot composite Trex deck contains 140,000 recycled plastic bags!
Alicia Glover (L) and Kim Brown of Bigway Foods in Souris "bag up" groceries for a customer before assisting her to her car with the heavy load. This is the type of bag that cannot be sent to the Recycling Depot. Souris School is collecting these and others like them for the month of October and will ship them by Gardewine Group, where they will eventually end up at Trek Plastics to be made into deck boards. The Manitoba school that collects the most bags will win a Trek bench. In an effort to assist the school with this cause, Bigway, who has a recycling program of their own that runs year round, will donate their bags to the School for the month of October. Bags are to be dropped off at the School or the Plaindealer office by October 30. PHOTO/DEBBIE BUTLER

INVITATION TO TENDER Rural Municipality of Sifton
It was business as usual at Bigway Foods in Souris Monday morning but in the early hours of Sunday morning, it was anything but. Criminals smashed in the back door and in a "smash and grab" type of robbery, they stole a quantity of cigarettes and disappeared before Police could arrive on scene. The break-in was caught on tape and RCMP are searching for the masked intruders. PHOTO/DEBBIE BUTLER
Residents frustrated with crimes over weekend (Continued from Page 1) One frustrating piece of the puzzle for Devins is the sign that was used to smash out the windows. It was a road sign indicating a “curve” that was once located on the top of the hill going south on Highway 22. The sign, according to Devins, was either broken off or taken down about three weeks ago. No one
from the Department of Highways repaired or replaced the sign after all this time, but for some reason it was taken down the hill and laid on the grass in front of the Museum. Again, Devins does not know who did this or why. He believes that if the sign was replaced as it should have been by Provincial Road crews then the van-
dals would have had nothing at their finger tips to use as a weapon to destroy the jigger. The last act that is frustrating to residents occurred on Sunday. Someone was driving a blue Toyota Tacoma truck and was attempting to run over a peacock. When they failed the first time, they turned around and attempted to hit

it a second time. Again a fail. Then the young male exited his vehicle and tried to capture the terrified peacock. It was only the timely intervention of a woman who had noticed the incident that prevented the male from completing his act of animal cruelty. This woman shouted him down and he fled in his truck. RCMP are investigating these reports.
Scarecrow Days a major success by Darci Semeschuk Scarecrow days 2015 were well attended right from the start with the RBC kickoff barbecue right through to the Blood Moon on Sunday evening. The RBC barbecue saw about 90 people come through which is down form previous years. They attributed the decline to the fact that the Legion was offering their soup and sandwich days for Legion Week, something that hasn’t coincided in the past. The streets were full with visitors looking for a bargain at the town wide yard sales sponsored by the Souris Glenwood Chamber
of Commerce on Saturday. For dog lovers, the Agility Fly Ball Dogs did not disappoint. Souris Glenwood Chamber of Commerce president and chairperson of Scarecrow Days 2015, Jackie Kirkup was pleased with the participation in the annual event. “I think it is amazing how our community embraces this annual event,” she remarked. “I certainly appreciate all of the volunteers/organizations that organized events to be held throughout the weekend. The Chamber continues to work hard in supporting local businesses and to increase tourism in the
community.” Debbie and Gary Noto resurrected the Sunday Flea Market at the community hall and they reported over 40 tables and 400 people through the door. Many of those people enjoyed the lunch put on by the Legion Ladies. It was the place to go to get a delicious piece of pie! Thankfully, the weather was wonderful and many families got creative with their scarecrows. Scarecrow Days 2015 was a success! “Plans are already underway for next year’s event,” said Kirkup in a final statement. “That will be the 25th year of Scarecrow Weekend.”

Peacocks lucky to be strolling after careless attack This mother peacock is very protective of her peachicks after someone tried to run over one with their truck on Sunday afternoon. A citizen reported that a male in a blue Toyota Tacoma attempted to run over a peacock, not once, but twice. When that failed he got out of his truck and tried to grab the bird. He only left after the citizen shouted him down and called RCMP. PHOTO/DEBBIE BUTLER

Local family faces new setback in Lyme Disease case
Here & There Compiled by Dolores Caldwell
The Gazette Homicide takes place in Carberry A 26-year-old man is dead following a confrontation outside of the Carberry Motor Inn late Wednesday, September 9. At 11:45 p.m., Carberry RCMP were called to the motel after receiving a report of a severely injured man outside. Police said the man was transported to hospital where he died as a result of his injuries. The deceased was confirmed as Garnet Baptisté of Ebb and Flow First Nation.
Crossroads This Week $5 million helicopter called upon to make emergency transport to Winnipeg The STARS air ambulance was called to Shoal Lake to deal with a medical emergency. The Shock Trauma Air Rescue Society (STARS) helicopter arrived at the Shoal Lake Regional Airport at 6:55 and departed at 7:32. After landing, an advanced care paramedic and a critical care nurse were transported to the Shoal Lake Strathclair Health Centre by the Shoal Lake Fire Departments to assist with triaging a patient.

The Killarney Guide Heavenly harvest Dennis Turner captured an amazing photo of 17 combines bringing in a canola crop just south of tTown, using his drone camera. Killarney Growing Project volunteers harvested the 140 acre field in just 58 minutes, and it yielded 6,406 bushels, or 145 metric tonnes of the oilseed. The crop, valued at around $690,000 and will be sold to benefit the Canadian Foodgrains Bank, which helps 40 developing countries, especially Syria and South Sudan, with food supplies and agricultural education.
The Redvers Optimist Viterra elevator falls While preparation took hours and upon hours, once it started, the old elevator took just seconds to fall, in a giant plume of dust. The old timers say that the flood of 2014 was pretty much the last nail in the coffin of the elevator they referred to as the “old UGG”. The elevator now owned by Viterra fell on September 1.
by Glen Kirby A Souris family has been denied, again, as they battle the provin cial government over the care and treatment of their son stricken with Lyme Disease. The Manitoba Health Appeal Board has rejected a claim by Tyler, Reid and Kerry Takvam for reimburse ment related to Tyler’s treatment outside the province. In 2010, the teen was bitten by an infected tick and, despite seeing several Manitoba doctors, was not diagnosed until 2012 in Calgary where the frustrated family found a Lyme Disease specialist. In its 12-page ruling, the Appeal Board noted the Takvams “did eve rything reasonably possible to find a solution to the very serious health problems he was experiencing.” However, the Board denied the Takvam’s compensation claim because they had not obtained a referral from a Manitoba doctor and permission from the Manitoba government to seek medical attention outside the province. “The difficulty in obtaining a referral was a real and substantial problem in this case but the Board must apply the law even when it creates hardship. Laws are made by the Legislature and only the Legislature can change them.” (from Appeal Board Decision, July 16, 2015). The Takvams are disappointed with the ruling. “How can you get a referral from a doctor

in Manitoba who throws his hands in the air and says ‘I don’t know what your son has’,” asks Reid. “We couldn’t wait any longer because our son’s condition was deteriorating,” recalls Kerry. “We had to act. He’d be in a wheelchair now without the treat ment.” The family presented more than 125 pages to the Appeal Board, chronicling not only their personal journey with Lyme Disease but research on the Health Services Insurance Act, Canada Health Act and the provincial govern ment’s response to a growing problem. Manitoba Health reports cases have increased each year since the province began tracking Lyme Disease in 2009. So far in 2015, there are 14 confirmed and probable cases. The infection is spread to humans through tick bites. Early signs can include a bull’s eye mark around the bite and flu-like symptoms. Unchecked, Lyme Disease can cause neurological illnesses, including paralysis. “Doctors in Manitoba are using an outdated method for testing,” says Reid. “They seem reluctant to diagnose Lyme Disease. I compare it to getting hit by a car. Unless you show up to emergency with the car still attached, they won’t believe you.” Indeed, the Appeal Board found that the Takvams faced a “real and substantial prob lem” in getting care in
Manitoba, writing, “To this day he has been unable to get a positive diagnosis of Lyme Disease in Manitoba in spite of the symptoms, other evidence, and two confirming Western blot tests.” The Takvams were seeking approximately $13,000 for doctors fees, testing, and travel although Kerry esti mates the family has spent upwards of $30,000 in the five years since Tyler’s infection. “It’s not about the money,” says Reid. “We wanted to set a prece dent. We believe we clearly showed at our hearing that Manitoba is not able to properly test, diagnose, and treat Lyme Disease.” Tyler continues to recover and is completing his schooling in Brandon. Kerry says her son is upbeat, positive,
and his energy level has returned although he is dealing with gastrointestinal problems which she believes is a result of the medication. The Appeal Board noted, “While the Appellant will be frus trated by the expense incurred in getting treatment for which he cannot be compensated, he has the satisfaction of knowing that it appears he is well on the way to good health and resumption of a normal life.” The Takvams advise others who may be infected or suspect they have contracted Lyme Disease to immediately ask for a referral and approval to seek care elsewhere, so they can claim expenses. “A lot of people just can’t afford to do what we did,” notes Reid, “Make sure you get that approval first.”

Library Corner By Alexis MacLean
Two mysteries today: “From the Charred Remains”, by Susanna Calkins, and “X”, by Sue Grafton. “From the Charred Remains” is set in London just after the Great Fire. The book begins just after the Great Fire when Lucy Campion, a lady’s maid, pressed into service along with almost everyone else to begin the monumental clean-up, discovers a body. Not unusual in the circumstances, except this one was found stabbed through the heart and stuffed in a barrel - i.e. not likely a victim of the Fire. Thus there are two mysteries: Who was the man in the barrel and who killed him? As she had done in a previous book (“A Murder at Rosamund’s Gate”), Lucy becomes involved in unravelling the mystery and bringing the killer to justice. In the process, we are introduced to a rather large cast of characters the members of Lucy’s previous household as well as those of her newly chosen vocation; the local constable who obviously has serious feelings for her; a reformed (perhaps) pickpocket and injured war vet who assists her; the woman who believes the murdered man is the lover her father has forbidden her; and, of course, the various people who might have committed the crime. A complex mystery and a fairly entertaining read. Those of you who like Sue Grafton will probably like “X”, her latest. The story begins when PI Kinsey Millhone is asked to go through the files belonging to Paul, a one-
outside of your home. Give us a call and we will get someone just as quickly as we can. S.O.S. also hooks up the Victoria Lifeline. This is a wonderful service that can get you help with just the push of a button 24 hours a day,
time colleague. In these she finds a coded list of women’s names. The question, of course, is what these women had in common and why Paul was interested in them. Kinsey believes the women are or were in danger and, furthermore, she believes she knows the sociopath responsible. The trick, of course, is proving it - without getting killed in the process. Not restricting itself to that adventure, two additional and totally unrelated mysteries are added to the mix, and following Kinsey as she deals with them all gets to be something of a trial. Indeed, by the book’s end, the ‘main’ mystery has all but been forgotten and its resolution is rather unsatisfactory. The book is okay but could easily have been 100 pages shorter. There are needless sections of dialogue involving the California drought, water conservation and plumbing, for example, as well as completely pointless verbiage - of the sort whereby we are told, for example, that Kinsey took a piece of paper of such and such quality, wrote a note, found an envelope, put the note in the envelope, affixed appropriate postage, and then mailed it at such and such a box. Why not just say she mailed a note, as none of the other detail is in any way relevant? Overall then, it’s an okay mystery which would have been improved through greater editorial intervention, but an okay mystery nonetheless. Hours: Closed Sunday and Monday; Tuesday, 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m., 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.; Wednesday, 11:00 a.m. 1:00 p.m.; Thursday and Friday, 12:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.; Saturday, 10:00 a.m. 3:00 p.m.

Though winter comes creeping, don’t let it dismay, Keep autumn within you, to brighten each day.

Last wagon trail ride of the season by Judy Wells Getting off the grid for a few days is a good thing. This is exactly what a group of dedicated wagon trail riders will be doing from September 27 to October 2. Taking part in wagon trail rides has been a passion for these people for many years, most of them, for over 30 years. The group includes Tom White of Souris; Linden Zinn of Alexander, Diane Keam of Dufresne and Nick and Helen Samrodny of West St. Paul. Dan Meggison will ride with them the first day of the six day trek which starts at his farm and ends in Clearwater. Zinn lived in the Turtle Mountains for 50 years before moving to Alexander, about 20 years ago. He is a seasoned trail rider who participated in the Boundary Commission Trail Ride and the NWMP Ride, to name a few. He says the best part of doing the ride is getting to drive the horses and going places most people will never see. They are literally off the beaten path. White and Zinn took a few days to make the trail. “It’s amazing how many roads aren’t there any more. The roads are no longer used and kept up and before you know it, trees and grass and such grow up and you can’t tell there ever was a road there,” said Zinn. The wagons will be going on many back roads, through bush, on abandoned rail lines, and about 20 miles of poor gravel. “We did find a lot of dirt roads which is good for the horses,” adds Zinn. White is a long-time wagon trail participant and has been organizing this particular ride for the past eight years. He says it’s becoming a lost art as most of the trail riders are aging and there’s no young people coming up. “We don’t have any young people doing this but we are very open to
them, to anyone who is interested in driving teams,” said White. “In fact, I’d go as far as to say if there was a young couple or couple of young people who were truly interested and passionate about driving horses and getting involved in trail rides, I would consider giving them a team and wagon to keep this thing going,” said Zinn. He emphasized they would have to know how to treat the horses right and have a sincere desire to taking part in trail rides. “We’ve done (trail rides) most of Riding Mountain and we tend to go back and forth from there to the south (border area),” added White. This year’s ride only has four wagons and five people taking part. That doesn’t include Dan Meggison who will accompany them on the first leg. Up until two or three years ago there were usually about 10 wagons and 12 or more people. The crew try to get away by 9:00 a.m., stop for a half hour lunch at 1:00 (they don’t unhitch). They try to get to their day’s destination by 5:00 so they can unhitch, tend to the horses, clean up, and have some supper. “I don’t like to cook in the dark, so I don’t expect our cook (Diane) to do it either,” said White. They like to get the dishes done before dark as well. Then it’s time for a bonfire where they discuss the day and what to expect on the next day’s trail. White says what he likes most about wagon trail rides is seeing the country at a slow speed, with time to actually look at it, and at this time of the year, the colour of the leaves. That, and driving his team. These people are passionate about their horses and take very good care of them at all times. “It’s all about the horses,” concluded Zinn.

Car Show draws dozens of classics and hot rods by Glen Kirby From 400 horsepower street cruisers to woodyside panelled stations wagons to hot-rod trucks and motorcycles, last weekend’s car show in Souris featured vehicles of all makes, colours, and styles. According to organizers with the Souris Crescent Cruisers car club, 67 vehicles were displayed at the Showand-Shine in Victoria Park, including more than 30 from surrounding communities. “The cars are the cars but the attraction is the people,” said Chuck Wilsone from Killarney, relaxing in the shade beside his mint green ‘41 De Soto classic. “I can drive to a car show in any small town and not know anybody there and leave with a bucketful of new friends.” “True,” laughed Brad Johnston, parked next to Wilsone with his 63-1/2 Ford Galaxy XL. “You seldom find [a jerk] with a great car.” “Great cars and great weather made for a perfect day,” said Scott Murray, a Cruisers club member with a Corvette, hot-rodded Fargo truck
and restored ‘38 Ford on display. “We got to see a few new cars that guys have been working on or just purchased, so that’s always fun.” Among the chrome and steel glinting in the autumn sun were Mopar muscle cars including a red 440 Charger, ‘70 Plymouth GTX and a hemi-orange ‘71 Dodge Challenger recently purchased for $30,000 by Souris resident Felix Boulanger. “When I was young, I always liked the look of these cars,” says Boulanger. “Two years ago, I started looking on-line and found this one in Illinois. That was a mistake, maybe,” he laughs. George and Marley Melnychuk drove in from Alexander with their new acquisition - a blue-green ‘67 Beetle ‘bug’ with the roof chopped off for true summertime travelling. “It had been parked in a barn and hadn’t ran for 17 years,” says George. “We threw in some gas and it fired right up. Amazing!” Spectators were free to walk among vehicles lined up on the grass in
Polishing up a treasured classic Great weather and 67 vehicles to enjoy at the Show-and-Shine during last weekend's Scarecrow Days. This event marked the final Show-and-Shine for 2015.

A pink and white Ford Crown Victoria gleamed alongside a blacked-out sedan. Nic Peters and
Chantal Quennelle, newcomers to Souris from Dauphin, were impressed with the turnout and talked of one day having their own street rod. “I grew up watching the Dukes of Hazzard on TV. I love the Dodge muscle cars. Eventually,
I’d like to restore my own. They built cars a lot better back then,” said Peters. The Show-and-Shine was the last event of the season for the Souris Crescent Cruisers. Murray said members are talking about adding a barbecue next year and
possibly holding a similar event earlier in the summer. “Over the winter, we’ll find out what other car shows are planned for this area in 2016 and try to pick an open date that will allow other clubs to attend,” said Murray.

From the Superintendent’s desk by Carolyn Cory, SWHSD superintendent On September 24 and 25, all employees of Southwest Horizon School Division met in Melita School for our annual Division Wide P r o f e s s i o n a l Development. This year we were very fortunate to have four expert Restitution facilitators work intensively with our staff. What is Restitution? Restitution is a pro active process that teaches self-discipline and responsibility, and one that requires thinking rather than reacting. It is based on the principle that people are internally motivated and they behave in order to get the pictures they have created in their heads of how they want to be in the world. The focus is not on what might happen to a per son if they misbehave but rather on what kind of person they will be if they do. It encourages individuals to selfassess their behaviour
and how it affects oth ers, as well as them selves, as they reflect on their own beliefs and values. Restitution teaches people to behave because they believe it’s the right thing to do for them selves and others, not just because of what others will do to or for them. Restitution does include bottom lines. The bottom line refers to a short list of behaviours that are considered totally unacceptable by teachers, parents, and peers. This list usually includes behaviours that prevent learning or violate safety norms. These behaviours have consequences. In summary, Restitution means that we create the conditions for the person to fix their mistake and return to the group strength ened. A quick acronym for Restitution is NBA. N- Needs What do you need? What need of the other person was hurt? Can
you both get what you need? B - Beliefs What are your family beliefs about this? What do we believe in our class? Do you believe it? A - A Human Being Think about the kind of person you want to be in this situation. Are you a person who wants to fix things? Do you want to keep going when the going gets tough? Southwest Horizon will continue to work with staff to create a group vision and make an agreement as to how we will approach and solve problems. We wish to invite parents and interested com munity members into this discussion through upcoming community Restitution events. We are in the process of organizing Restitution training for parents in the coming months and will post this infor mation on the Division and School websites, as well as in local papers,
well in advance of the sessions. We also have Restitution reading materials available at the Souris Division office if you are inter ested in learning more about it.

Watch out for deer ticks Lyme disease is caused by a bacterial infection that people can get from the bite of an infected blacklegged (deer) tick. Manitobans can reduce contact with deer ticks by avoiding wooded or forested habitat, wearing long pants and a longsleeved shirt, tucking in clothing, using an appropriate repellent (it should state ‘for use against ticks’ on the product label), looking for and removing ticks as soon as possible. For more information about Lyme disease, its symptoms and how to prevent it, visit our website at www.manitoba.ca/health/lyme/
You can help You can help in the study of Lyme disease in Manitoba by collecting and submitting deer ticks for surveillance purposes. Deer ticks are smaller than the more common wood tick. Unlike wood ticks, they do not have white markings on their bodies. If you find a deer tick, remove it slowly from skin or clothing using tweezers and steady pressure; avoid twisting. Cleanse area with soap and water or a disinfectant. Place the tick in a small, crush-proof container (for example, a pill bottle) with a piece of slightly damp paper towel (to help keep the tick alive). Firmly tape the lid shut. Check the pictures and additional information on the website to determine if your tick might be a deer tick. Hand-deliver or mail the sample to the address below. If mailing, place the container in a sealed plastic bag then in a cardboard box labeled: RESEARCH SPECIMENS – FRAGILE – HANDLE WITH CARE Include your name, telephone number, email address and information about where, when and on whom (ex: a dog, a person) the tick was found.

‘Tis the season for soil sampling by Jo-Lene Gardiner, MAFRD Soil sampling is an important component of all fertility programs. Farmers cannot afford to ignore the contribution of soil nutrients by the soil. Three questions regarding soil sampling often arise – timing, pattern and depth. Sample Timing Ideally, samples should be taken as close to seeding as possible. In reality, fall sampling is most practical, and this is when 80 per cent of prairie soils are sampled. Soil N levels increase slowly through the fall from breakdown of organic matter, until biological activity slows (at < 5 degrees C). Ideally, samples would be pulled between mid-October and freeze-up, when microbial activity has ceased and N levels have stabilized. But earlier sampling has become common because samples are easier to take and depth is more reliable on untilled ground. It also allows more time to
develop fertility programs for fall applications and the uncertainty of when fall freeze-up may arrive may leave farmers without any samples taken. It has been estimated that Nitrate-N accumulates at up to 0.5 to one pound per acre per day through early September. Fortunately, most soil labs now make adjustments for soil N accumulation between actual sampling time and soil cooling or freeze-up. Sampling Patterns With the introduction and adoption of precision farming and grid soil sampling, theories abound on which pattern to use for sampling fields. Yet, many agronomists continue to use the traditional field composite test. In this method, 15-20 sample cores are collected in a selectively random manner from representative areas of the field. It is imperative to avoid including odd locations in the composite. Odd locations, such as eroded knolls and saline
areas, should be sampled, but submitted to the lab as separate samples. Including an oddball sight will contaminate the composite and may lead to erroneous and costly fertility decisions. For example: 1. Often, eroded knolls have exposed subsoil, high pH and lower availability of micronutrients, such as zinc and copper. 2. Depressional areas may have very high sulphate levels compared to well drained upper slopes. 3. Saline areas may have considerable buildup of N, P and K levels, since crop growth and nutrient removal is reduced. Sampling Depths - Use sample depth of 0-6” for immobile nutrients such as phosphorus, potassium, pH and micronutrients. Deeper samples (0 to 24”) have traditionally been recommended for mobile nutrients such as N and S and for salinity. Manitoba research is indisputable –
N uptake is best predicted by the 0-24” sample depth. In two separate findings, the correlation of soil nitrate-N to plant uptake was 0.64 and 0.64 for the 0-12” depth and 0.84 and 0.72 for the 0-24” depth, respectively. Sampling to these depths is not easy, and it is commonly suspected that core numbers per field suffers because of the chore. Recent studies in other prairie provinces have found acceptable results with 0-12” sampling. Much of this success hinges on the hope that people doing the soil sampling will take more cores in each field and provide a better indication of the field average. So, should you choose to use the shallower 0-12”sampling depth, increase the number of cores taken per field. The lab will then use an adjustment factor to estimate the total N and S availability. For more information on this topic, contact your local MAFRD office.
Farmlink Marketing solutions by Marvin Mills Stats Canada takes burden off of producers for production estimates In a surprise move last week, Statistics Canada released a model-based production estimate report. The release of the report is the first one ever of this type and may eventually replace some of the survey-based reports in the future. Survey based reports require input from producers. This model-based report uses three data sources: traditional survey-based yield data, agro-climatic indices from Environment Canada (heat/rain units) and satellite imagery vegetation index. Simply put, satellite imagery vegetation is
high-resolution, digital image data that monitors the changes in vegetation conditions. We compared the August 21 survey-based report to this report to take stock of the differences. Production estimates from the new model were reduced for barley, canaryseed, flax, lentils, mustard seed, oats, peas, fall rye, and winter wheat. Increased production estimates were seen in canola, corn, soybeans, durum and spring wheat. Note: Not all crops were covered. Harvested area, yield and production were reported for Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. These production estimates from Stats Canada
are used by government agencies, grain marketing firms, crop insurance companies, researchers and farmers. They provide information for food security, crop product markets, market pricing and transportation planning. This model-based report filled the information gap between the
August 21 estimates and the October 2 estimate without putting additional involvement on producers. This additional information could help the industry better monitor changes in yield. It is yet to be determined if we will see another model based report before the final production report on December 4.

Southwest Cougars look to open regular season in Dauphin by Grant Moffatt The Southwest Cougars begin play this weekend for real opening in Dauphin on Friday night versus the Parkland Rangers. The Winnipeg Wild will give the Cougars a stiff test on Saturday, October 3, when they make their first appearance in Souris
with a 6:30 p.m. face off. The Cougars split four preseason games dropping a home and home series with the Brandon Wheat Kings by scores of 4 to 1 and 6 to 4 in Brandon. They picked up a 2-1 win over a feisty Interlake team and then defeated the Central Plains Capitals 5-4 in the
annual Cougar preseason tournament. The Cougars will see Zach Wytinck, John Patmore, Brian Harris, Quin Hobbs, Blake Jameson, Jared Janke, and Rylan Rommelaere return to the lineup. They will be joined by Ben Hilhorst, Garrett Sambrook, Josh Wiens,
Grady Hobbs, Michael Tilbury, and Jared McCorrister, who move up from the Bantam ranks from the class of 2000. Rounding out this year’s squad are Brady Gordon, Tanner Gaudry, Dawson Waddell, McCullough Park, Carson Boyechko, Dexter Dalgeish, and Jay Webber
who all played in Westman High School hockey last year. The preseason saw the lowest number of players out for the Cougar’s training camp. Opportunities to play hockey else were saw no less than 10 players move to other Junior or Midget teams.
Head coach Dennis McNish and assistants Derek Moar, Cale Jefferies, and Dan Averill look to have a quicker team with a combination of youth and experience. The Cougars next home action will see the Winnipeg Thrashers pay a visit to Souris on October 11, at 2:00 p.m.

You would play a variety of sports in that section of time under one team playing against other associa tions/clubs that are doing the same. Why do we need 12 months of one sport!? We don’t, we need to give every athlete the chance to develop their physical literacy and allow them opportunities to find out if there is one particular sport they may excel at later on in more advanced devel opmental stages. Once athletes reach their teenager years, then they could start to pursue the sports they enjoy the most. At least this way, they have actually had the chance to try ALL sports and they can actually physically find out if they enjoy the activity or sport. This way they would get what every one in my profession wants - our children to be active for life.

Athletic Dream I have a dream for young athletes. I would love to see young ath letes playing a variety of sports throughout the year, without being forced to choose one over the other. What am I taking about? I am talking about a group of athletes in the same chronological and bio logical groupings playing multiple sports throughout the year. How would this work you ask? I don’t have the exact answer but I know of one group in Souris & area that have the right idea. Led by parents Glen Tosh and Chris Page and coach Michelle Kozak, the Peewee girls “ hockey ” team won’t be touching the ice for the entire first month. Instead, they will be doing Aquasizes, Basketball, Floor Hockey, Plyometrics, Yoga, and Zumba. What a phenomenal idea and one that should be expanded throughout the year. My dream would have athletics divided into three sessions: S e p t e m b e r- D e c e m b e r,

A closer look at volatility If you are an investor, you know the impact that volatility can have on your portfolio. Ups and downs in financial markets, individual securities and even mutual funds can have you smiling one day, worried the next. However, it is possible to manage volatility so price fluctuations won’t be such a concern. When you understand volatility and how it works, you can take steps to manage its impact. Volatility is important because it is a measure of risk and potential reward. It is the tendency of securities to rise and fall over a short period. Large swings equal high volatility. More moderate swings represent lower volatility. The higher the volatility, the greater the potential for short-term returns and the greater the risk that your investment will decline in value over a short period. If you have the potential to make a lot of money, you often have the potential to lose a lot as well. Less volatile investments may not have the same potential for windfall profits but they usually don’t have the same degree of downside risk. You can gauge the volatility of an investment by examining its price history. For example, if a stock has a tendency to fluctuate considerably over a short time, it is volatile. This is especially the case if the price movements are out of sync with the market. While you might expect stocks to move up and down with general market conditions, a volatile stock will often fluctuate even in times of generally stable markets. A low-volatility stock will vary in price much less. Its price moves may be more gradual, and it may even move in tandem with a market index most of the time. Should you be concerned about the volatility of an investment? If you want to assess potential risk before investing for the
short term, the answer is yes. If you’re willing to take on more risk to earn potentially higher returns, more volatile investments might be suitable for your portfolio. If you want low volatility, with the tradeoff of lower returns potential, look for lower volatility investments. You should also be concerned about the overall volatility of your portfolioin other words, how much the value of your portfolio fluctuates and over what period of time. This is easily managed by ensuring your portfolio is well diversified. Hold individual investments that vary in their degree of volatility, as well as including all major assets classes in your portfolio. Individual asset classes don’t always move in tandem, and they seldom fluctuate to the same degree at the same
time. You can also reduce volatility worries by focusing on the long-term. With a longer investment horizon, temporary fluctuations don’t matter as much. You reduce volatility risk and take advantage of the fact that over the long-term, the direction of markets is generally up. You can even take advantage of volatility to enhance returns. If you invest at regular intervalsthrough a periodic investment plan, for instancevolatility can work in your favor because your regular investment amount will buy more when prices dip. This technique is known as “dollar cost averaging,” and it can lower your cost of investing. Ask your financial advisor for help in assessing and managing the volatility of your portfolio.
Blood moon brings Scarecrow Days to a close For the first time in more than 30 years we were able to witness a supermoon in combination with a lunar eclipse. Often called a "blood moon" for its red colouring, this rare supermoon eclipse (we won't see another one until 2033) brought Scarecrow Days to a close last Sunday night. PHOTO/GLEN IRBY
