New Town Council Holds First Regular Meeting


By DARRYL HOLYK

mmediately following
the inaugural meeting of Minnedosa Town
Council, on Tuesday, October 28th, a special meeting was held.
Th e meeting opened
with a public hearing to
deal with a variation order application to vary
yard requirements to allow for the development
of Westview Estates, the
affordable housing project
in the southwest corner

of town north of Poplar


Park Mobile Home Community. As there were no
comments or concerns received regarding this application, it was passed.
A resolution was
passed to authorize Councillor Harvey Wedgewood
to remain on as Deputy
Mayor for the Town.
Council also reviewed
bylaw #2508 to regulate the proceedings and
conduct of council and
council committees. This
bylaw, established under

Mayor LaCostes council


in the summer of 2009 required a few updates. The
fi rst was to allow council
to meet at 6:30 p.m. rather
than 5:30 p.m. during the
period from May to September to work around
work schedules of council
members. A meeting time
change was also required
for councils summer
meeting schedule, moving
the July and August meetings of council from 1 p.m.
to 9 a.m. These required
amendments were dis-

cussed and agreed upon


and will be introduced
through the proper bylaw
procedure at an upcoming regular meeting of
council.
Following the special
meeting, Council held its
regular October Committee of the Whole meeting.
Councillor committee appointments were made as

A Tribute to the Man in Black


By JENNIFER PAIGE

innedosas Expressions Concert Series


is gearing up to host its
second performer of the
season, David James and
Big River.
David James and Big
River is a Johnny Cash tribute band who is dedicated
to replicating the most authentic Cash sound, mannerism and style, providing audiences with a living
prodigy to one of historys
truest music legends.
David James focuses
his rendition of Cash on
his rich baritone voice,
emulating Johnny in the
physical mannerisms of
the way he holds his guitar,
sings, talks and interacts
with the audience.
I have been performing as Johnny for the past
six years. We have done
quite a few tours, the first
few years on Victoria Island and then more recently through Alberta,
Saskatchewan and Manitoba, said James.
James was born in Tofield, Alberta but currently
resides in Nanaimo, British
Colombia. The group has
been on a Canadian tour
for a little over a month.
We are currently in
Regina and the tour is going wonderfully. We have
performed about 17 gigs

in a little over a month.


We like to perform a wide
variety of songs and incorporate some great stories along the way. I really
love getting the crowd involved, continued James.
Jamess stage partners, Big River, are made
up of Todd Sacerty on bass,
Duncan Symonds on guitar, and Colin Stevenson
on drums.
When I fi rst started
to perform it took a little
while to fi nd the right
group of guys to play with.
Todd, our bass player and

he really is our Marshall


Grant. He takes care of all
the road managing duties.
I am great with Cash but
not so good with money.
David James and Big
River have performed on a
variety of different stages,
from small town theatre
venues to a music festival
in Quebec in front of an
audience of 10,000. They
have been everywhere
from the coast of B.C., to
Nova Scotia and Washington State.
My favourite type of
venue to play would be a

River will be gracing the


stage of the Minnedosa
Community Conference
Centre on Friday, November 14th. The group will
be fresh off the stage in
Neepawa and heading to
McCreary following the
performance in town.
Th ose in attendance
should expect authentic renditions of some of
Cashs classics like Walk

the Line, Get Rhythm and


Boy Named Sue.
Replicating someone
as well known as Cash, you
really need to know your
stuff. Th ere are some really die-hard fans out there
and they will quiz you. I
have performed for a number of audience members
who were fortunate to have
seen Johnny perform,
added James.

Time for Change


Dear Editor,

anitobans understandteamwork.
The history of our province and its communities are full of examples
of people helping people
and neighbours supporting neighbours. We have
accomplished wonderful things together, but it
takes teamwork.
The current provin-

cial NDP government is


not a healthy team. It has
doubled our provinces
debt and hiked our taxes
again and again. We pay
some of the highest taxes
in Canada but the results
are not there. We are paying more and getting less.
Our province ranks
last in education of all
Canadian provinces. We
are tenth in healthcare
wait times and the Mani-

toba government recently


received a negative credit
rating for the first time in
28 years. This means we
will pay more to service
our growing debt and
have less for programs
and services.
Greg Selinger didnt
do this by himself. The
entire NDP team is responsible.
This NDP team has
blamed everyone else for

its problems.
Theyve
blamed the feds, floods,
Filmon, and even Manitobans for not paying
enough taxes. Now, with
no one else left to blame
they are blaming each
other.

Creation of a New Pitch

Frost Covered Highway


Causes Collision
By JENNIFER PAIGE

lphinstone RCMP attended to the first weather-related highway collision of the season that thankfully
did not result in any serious injuries.
On Tuesday, November 4th at approximately 9:30
a.m., three miles south of Erickson, at the S curve along
Highway #10, a driver of a northbound vehicle began to
slow due to icy road condition and lost control of the
vehicle.
The driver sideswiped a southbound vehicle and
then nearly missed a head-on collision with a following
southbound pickup truck.
In an attempt to avoid the head-on collision the
truck swerved into the ditch and rolled. One individual
was sent to hospital as a precautionary measure but all
three drivers were very lucky in that there were no serious injuries, explained Corporal Merasty of the Elphinstone RCMP.
Erickson emergency responders attended to the
crash. Traffi c along Highway #10 was slowed for a period of time but not stopped as all three vehicles were in
the ditch areas.
Speed and alcohol were not factors in the collision
and all three drivers were wearing their seatbelts, which
may have saved them from injury.
This was the fi rst weather-related highway collision of the season that I have been involved with. The
icy section seemed to be localized to that particular 10
km stretch of the highway. These drivers were lucky as
this could have been a very serious situation. A good
reminder to everyone that we are entering a dangerous
driving season, slow down and watch for frost covered
sections, added Merasty.
As a result of the incident all three vehicles were severely damaged and will likely be written-off. No charges will be laid as a result of the collision.

Work on new soccer pitches at the MREC site is ongoing.


The site is hoped to be functional by August 2015.
By JENNIFER PAIGE

innedosa
Youth
Soccer Association
(MYSA) has been moving
forward with the creation
of a soccer and rugby pitch
at the future Minnedosa
Regional Events Centre
(MREC) grounds.
Creating this site has
certainly been a long process but in the end we will
have a top-of-the-line facility that will be here for the
community to use for the
next 50 years, commented
Steven Smith, field man-

ager with MYSA.


Land at the new fi
elds
site has been excavated,
shaped and crowned to the
desired specs. The Association is hoping to have irrigation lines and heads installed before the snowfall.
We have been working to gather quotes on
fencing as we would like
to get the area fenced off
once it is irrigated in order
to keep people and wildlife off of the soil. In the
spring, following the melt,
we will look to clean the site
up, sow and broadcast the

grass, continued Smith.


The MYSA are looking
to have the site functional
at the earliest by August
2015. However, this will be
dependent on the weather
but the group confirms that
the fi eld will definitely be
functional by the spring of
2016.
In terms of fi nances,
the Youth Soccer organization has been saving up and
has had a fund building for
about 10 years in preparation of this field creation.
We have also received
some grant money, and the

RM of Odanah-Minto has
been very generous to us
in helping out financially
as well as with man power,
added Smith.
With the current soccer
pitch located behind Tanners Crossing School, the
association has struggled in
recent years with flooding
issues.
The fi elds are right
in the fl ood zone and the
soccer season begins early
in the spring, not giving us
much of a chance for the
fields to dry up.
The new fi eld will be
one large pitch running
north and south. As the
fi eld will be used for the
dual purpose of soccer and
rugby, the boundaries of
the pitch have been made
to accommodate. The fi eld
will run 140 yards long and
80 yards wide.
We will also be able
to break the field up when
the youth teams are playing. There will be suffi cient
room to run two fields
side-by-side, running east
and west.

A Dog With a Message


By JENNIFER PAIGE

tudents at Tanners
Crossing School were
recently visited by a canine travelling across
Canada on a mission to
spread the message of
kindness and acceptance.
On October 29th,
Paws
Across
Canada
stopped in at TCS where
students got to meet Toby,
a two-year-old Chesapeake Bay retriever.
Toby is the inspiration
behind Christopher and
Charmaine Hammonds
national tour as well as
several childrens books
and an upcoming movie.
The Hammonds have
been working to spread
the message of bullying
prevention, acceptance
and kindness through the
lessons they have learned
from Toby.
Our journey began
when we adopted Toby.
He taught us so many lessons about unconditional
kindness,
commented
Charmaine Hammond.

Involving Toby in
these presentations adds
something that we could
never do alone. He makes
the experience for these
kids unique, memorable
and creates a powerful learning experience.
There is something to be
said about the connection
animals can bring.
Hammond is a professional speaker and has
presented to over 80,000
people in more than five
countries. She previously
held careers as a corrections officer and contract
negotiation specialist and
holds a masters degree in
conflict analysis and management.
After adopting Toby
senior in 1997, the Hammonds enlisted Toby as an
animal assisted therapy
dog as a source of training.
Seeing Toby interact with
patients at the adult mental hospital was amazing
and it inspired me to want
to share more of the unconditional acceptance
and happiness I was wit-

nessing. Th is is where I
began sharing Tobys message.
Hammond
initially
wrote a story about adopting Toby in Chicken Soup
for the Soul- what I learnt
from my dog, and later
went on to publish a series
of childrens books.
Th e book Tobys
Terms is a story of a beguiling creature who
teaches his owners that,
despite their trying to
teach him how to be the
dog they want, he is the
one to lay out the terms of
being the dog he needs to
be, explained Charmaine.

Minnedosa Rotary Ramblins


SUBMITTED

ach month the Rotary


Club of Minnedosa
will endeavor to report to
the community activities
that have been going on,
what is coming up and
how you can join us as a
Friend of Rotary.

At home:
We have been busy
in October with a couple
of events. The Grocery
Grab was held on the
Thanksgiving weekend
and we raised over $1,200
to put back into Community events this next year
as well as we hosted 19
Exchange students from
across our District this
past weekend. We carved
pumpkins, did a scavenger hunt, played games,
participated in a hay ride

and wiener roast, went to


the haunted forest and
had a Halloween dance.
It was a great time and the
students were such good
ambassadors for their
respective countries of
Brazil, Belgium, Finland,
Japan, Switzerland, Norway, France, Colombia,
Mexico and Taiwan.
We also are very
proud of our Rivers Edge
Park support - thanks
to Stephanie Jordan for
leading this. Peggy Mullie
tried out a Rotary bench
during her walk a few
weeks ago.
We continue to enjoy
Ingrid Timland our inbound Rotary Exchange
Student from Norway,
whom is currently staying
with Barry and Johanne
Ross. Ingrid has been
having a terrific time so
far and we will be featuring her in a future report.

Abroad:
Alexandra
Enns
(daughter of Sandra and
Kevin Enns) is in France
on a Rotary exchange
this year. She reports to
us that she is having an
amazing time with her
new host family, school
and has learned so much
already.

We have received
word that funds that were
forwarded to the Ripple
Effect program in Guatemala have been allocated
and the school building
project is commencing.
Funds for this project
were originally raised by
the CHANGE group from
MCI a few years ago and
were reallocated to Guatemala after the Ethiopian school project was
completed. We were
able to have these funds
matched four to one
and so a total of $46,000
was therefore raised to
build a school that families have been waiting
over 10 years to have in
their community. If you
want more information
please go to http://por
tal.clubrunner.ca/50018/

Remembrance Day
holds a special place
in our hearts this coming week. Many of our
past and present members served or had family members serve in the
military. We publicly
thank them for their dedication to our country and
its people. Peace is a pillar of Rotary and one that
we steadfastly support.

Scaring Away Hunger


By JENNIFER PAIGE

he Minnedosa and
Area Food Bank recently received a generous
donation of homegrown
potatoes.
Following this years
harvest the Inkster family of Minnedosa, donated
nearly 600-pounds of potatoes to the local food
bank. The Inksters were
able to gather the lot of
potatoes from a family
member who operates a
farm just outside of Carberry.
One of our board
members has offered up
space in their cold storage which will allow us
to store the potatoes and
utilize this donation for
quite some time. The Food
Bank is very appreciative
of this generous donation, commented Linda
Bertram, chairperson of

the Minnedosa and Area


Food Bank.
Th e Food Bank will
also be teaming up with
the LS!N student group at
Tanners Crossing School
as part of the National We
Scare Hunger campaign,
a week-long competition
to see how many pounds
of non-perishable food
items can be collected.
From November 3rd
to 7th, students will be collecting donations in the
schools pit area and will
weigh the total amount
before delivering it to the
Food Bank.
Last year Tanners
Crossing students donated over 1,966 pounds of
food and are attempting to
beat that record this year.
Th e Minnedosa and
Area Food Bank assists
over 40 households every
month in the communities of Minnedosa, Erick-

son, Rapid City, Sandy


Lake, Onanole and Rolling River First Nations.
They have projected their
yearly needs to be 10,000
pounds of food or $10,000
a year.
Items in demand include: canned fruit, canned
vegetables, canned beans,
pasta sauce, canned tomatoes, Kraft Dinner, cans of
soup, cans of fish, canned
meat, pasta or rice, soda
crackers, and seasonal
vegetables.
The Food Bank is located within the Minnedosa United Church and is
open Tuesdays 10-12 and
Thursdays 1-3. Donations
can be sent with your elementary school student,
dropped off at the back
door of the United Church
or in collection bins at the
local grocers.

ACC has sent student
chefs to the annual competition for three years but
was never successful in
earning a medal placing.
Glasgow and Ewasiuk
were applauded for their
knowledge of the ingredients, stage presence,
and teamwork. The duo
brought home a bronze
medal and bragging rights
of being the fi rst team of
ACC students to place.
It felt pretty awesome.
I was really proud of what
we accomplished. There
have been some really talented students to go in the
past three years so for us to
medal is pretty crazy. We
were very excited to win
our fi rst in school competition and when Nick and
I furthered it with placing,
well we are excited.
Glasgow isnt sure that
she would ever consider
having her own cooking
program but says that it was
a great thing to experience.
I got to go do something I really love in front
of people, it was a learning
experience. The food show
was pretty cool and there
were a lot of interesting
ideas. We ate at some really
good restaurants and some
really bad ones, but again I
learned what I want to do
and what you shouldnt do.
Who doesnt love to travel,
eat and learn.
Glasgow is in her fi nal
year at ACC and will be
graduating from the Culinary Arts program in the
spring.

Running Around the World


By DARRYL HOLYK

his past Sunday, British Ultra Marathon


Runner Kevin Carr arrived in Minnedosa on his
journey across the world.
Kevin is on a fundraising
mission while also striving toward a goal of being
the fastest person ever to
circumnavigate the globe
on-foot. Th e current record is held by Danish
runner, Jesper Olsen.
Carr set out on his
journey on July 28th, 2013
from his home in Dartmoor, England hoping to
return home to wrap up
his journey by April 2015.
To date, Kevin has run
across nineteen countries.
On July 26th of this year,
Kevin arrived in Vancouver and set out running
across his 20th country
Canada. When completed, Kevins journey will
have taken him more than
18,000 miles west to east
across six continents. His
visit to Minnedosa was his
34th day of consecutive
running without a day off.
Carr travels alone
pushing a cart that car-

ries necessities such as a


tent, stove, clothing, etc.
Th roughout his journey
Kevin has been fortunate to meet people who
have provided him with
a warm bed to get a good
nights sleep before heading off the next morning.
During his recent stop
in Minnedosa, Kevin enjoyed a delicious meal
from the St. Alphonsus
Fall Supper and stayed
overnight with Mayor Ray
Orr and his wife Cheryl.
He headed out on the next
leg of his journey early
Monday morning hoping
to make it to Gladstone
Monday evening.
Running across the
globe comes with its fair
share of challenges. Some
of the struggles Kevin has
faced on his journey include encountering wild
dog packs in Romania
and extreme heat in India.
While running in India,
I had heat stress a couple
times and a heat stroke,
mentioned Kevin. While
some people may think
running across the Canadian prairies would be
easy, Kevin said the wind

conditions on the prairies have been difficult


and slowed him down at
times. Carr averages about
50 kms a day on a poor day
making it about 40 kms
and on a great day, such as
last Sunday on his way to
Minnedosa can squeeze
in 60 kms.
During
his
run
around the globe, Kevin
is fundraising and raising
awareness for two charities the British Red Cross
and SANE which focuses
on mental health and suicide prevention. Moving
so quickly during his journey, Kevin has not had a
lot of time to focus on the
fundraising aspect of his
journey but anyone wishing to donate can do so
online through his website hardwayround.com
You can also follow Kevins journey on his website
with current updates from
his Satellite tracker.
We wish Kevin well in
his attempt to set a new
World record!

A trip to the Caribou River and Beyond


(or, What I did on Summer Vacation)

Moments
in Riding
Mountain
By KEN KINGDON

s a lad in Minnedosas
Tanners
Crossing
Elementary School, I remember a time-honoured
way to start the first day
back at school was the
infamous write a story
about what you did while
on summer vacation...

Well, this article is


a bit like those essays. I
cant help myself I just
have to write about my
Arctic adventures from
this past spring.
Now, a trip to the Canadian Arctic might not
be on everyones bucket
list, but I really think it
should be. There is something magical about that
great treeless expanse.
Despite hiking in
the north before, nothing could prepare me for
the beauty, solitude, wa-

ter, or the insects that we


encountered on our 80
kilometre roundtrip hike
north of the Caribou River,
located about 100 kilometres south of the Nunavut
border on the west shore
of Hudson Bay.
We started out from
Churchill and flew about
90 kilometres around the
west shore of Hudsons
Bay, seeing wolves, seals,
and thousands of geese
along the way.
When the helicopter
dropped us off at our first
nights accommodations,
I kind of wondered what I
had gotten myself into - it
was a ramshackle hunting cabin that one or more
polar bears had decided
to use as a playhouse. It,
or they, had ripped off
the door, smashed windows, and then destroyed
the cabins furnishings in
a way that would make a
three-day,
end-of-term
University party look like
a tea social.
Despite the mess, and
the unspoken threat it
implied, what transpired
from there was 12 days of
hiking through a beautiful land that has seen very
few summer visitors.
Th e lack of summer
visitors, in fact, should
have been a warning sign

to us. When arranging


to hike in this area, the
local Inuit had been approached to act as guides.
Th ey declined, and for
a very good reason MOSQUITOS.
Th is year may have
been worse than normal
(although somehow I
doubt it), and this springs
weather maybe to blame.
It was a late spring, and an
early June snowfall had really slowed things down in
northern Manitoba.
Then, a week before
we arrived, the weather
turned, and it went from
early spring temperatures
to full-on summer seemingly overnight. We ended up with 10 gorgeous,
sunny days, with highs of
up to 28 or 30 C, but there
was also a lot of melt water
covering the land.
While this meant that
we had little need for long
johns, it also created perfect conditions to produce
bugs, and they came out
in full force about five
days into the trip. And
they never left.
It also meant that a
lot of our time was spent
stomping through ankledeep water, and required
us to cross potentially
dangerously
flooded
creeks that would normal-

ly be mere trickles.
But enough complaining everyone had
to deal with insects and
water this year. However, my poor companion
Christian Artuso also had
to contend with being
loaded down like a rented
mule.
He must have been
carrying 100 lbs of food
and gear, while I, as the
body guard, got to blithely
walked about with 20 lbs
and the shotgun - useful
in the event that we ran
into a polar bear.
Which brings us to
the purpose of said trek.
It was birding, of course.
We were doing surveys for
breeding birds in this remote part of the Province
as part of the Manitoba
Breeding Bird Atlas.
The birding was spectacular in a Tundra sort
of way, but not overly diverse. On the first couple of days, while only a
couple of kilometres from
Hudsons Bay and maybe
five or six kilometres north
of the tree line, we counted 10 or 12 species per
stop. As we moved further into the tundra, and
further from the bay, we
recorded only six or seven
species per count point.
While the diversity
may have been a bit limited, we did record a bunch
of northern species. Pacific and red-throated loons,
dunlin, Hudsonian godwits, willow ptarmigan,

Lapland longspurs, Arctic


terns, long-tailed ducks,
and black scoters were all
commonly observed species that made my Riding
Mountain National Parkbiased eyes bug out.
In terms of mammals,
we saw a couple of bull
caribou, a wolf, several
Arctic foxes, a black bear
(it was hanging out near
the tree line that also borders the Caribou River),
and lots of belugas. All
cool animals, but the highlight was two new species
for me Arctic hares and
Arctic ground squirrels.
Both of these species are much larger than
their southern cousins.
The Arctic ground squirrel
seemed almost as big as
a woodchuck. The Arctic
hare was also much bigger than I expected, and
was an absolutely beautiful patchwork of gray
and white, with long ears
to match its equally long
legs.
Finally, some of you
may be wondering if I
ended up having to use
that shotgun. Despite
hanging out right on the
bay, we didnt see a single
polar bear, making this the
second time I have struck
out in the Polar Bear Capital of the World. Obviously Ill need to go back
again, and heres hoping
the third time is the lucky
charm!

Bantam Bombers
By CRISSY KOWAL

nother road game


for Th e Bantams as

they travelled to Rivers on


Thursday, October 30th. It
was a close one for the first
two periods as the teams
traded goals, but with only
seconds left on the clock

in the second Minnedosa


made it a two goal lead on
a short-handed goal. Two
more short-handed goals
in the final frame gave The
Bombers some breathing

room and they left town


with a 7-3 victory. Nathan
Dornn with a hat-trick plus
1A; Braeden Good 2G,2A;
Zane MacDonald 2G,3A;
Max Dowsett 1A; Devon
Beatty 1A; great goaltending by Jayden Morrice.
Home ice was not
kind to The Bombers as
they suffered back to back
losses on the weekend.
Saturday, November 1st
vs Winnipegosis was a
fast paced contest which
found Minnedosa trailing
for the entire game. The
team tried hard but would
come up a couple goals
short with a fi nal score of
6-4 for the visitors. Goals
scored by Colin Robinson,
Josh Good, Braeden Good
and Riley Barrett. Steve
Gamblin 2A; Single assists
to Matt Kowal, Nathan

Dornn and Josh Kingdon.


Good goaltending by Brad
Letain. Sunday, November 2nd vs Grandplains/
Roblin was another close
one. A low scoring game as
the opposition took a one
goal lead at the five minute
mark of the firstperiod.
No goals in the second.
The visitors doubled their
lead mid-way through the
third but Minnedosa made
things interesting when
they fi nally got one past
the netminder with 8 minutes left on the clock. The
Bombers pushed hard but
couldnt find the equalizer
as the game ended with a
2-1 loss for the home team.
Goal scored by Zane MacDonald, assisted by Nathan Dornn. Jayden Morrice strong between the
pipes. Good job Bombers!

Two more home games


this weekend as Foxwarren
and Rivers are scheduled
to come to town.

on Th
ursdaymornings?
A small group are trying
to raise enough funds to
purchase a defibrillator
for Newdale that would be
available as needed in the
community. A VLT grant
has been received to begin
the process but they are
still many dollars short. A
small fee will be set to go
toward the purchase price.
Walking is one of the best
cardiac and arthritic exercises that people of any

age can do at their own


pace, along with the social
interaction of a group.
Birthday wishes to
Phyllis Tolton of Minnedosa PCH for November 2nd,
Bill Zahaiko for November 6th and to Betty Dennison of Sandy Lake PCH.
Congratulations to Keith

Brandon who celebrated
their 57th Anniversary on
November 2nd, from your
Newdale friends.

ewdale Ravens Glen


WI hosted a presentation on Food Security
on Thursday, October 30th
at the Drop-In Center. Pat
Orsack, Rural Leadership
Specialist from the Russell
Ag Offi ce was the speaker.
Local WI members, community members and five
ladies from Basswood WI
attended, learning what
food security means -food security is when all
people have access, at all
times to safe, nutritious
food that enables them to
lead a healthy, active lifestyle.
Another concern
raised was that this food
needs to be provided in
an ecologically sustainable way, but also, farmers
everywhere need to make
a decent living from the

soil. This is a huge area


and we only covered a very
small section of it. A time
of visiting over lunch concluded the afternoon. Ravens Glen WI will be having their AGM meeting on
November 18th to plan for
next years programs.
Shirley Pederson returned home from a ten
day visit of cuddles and
kisses with her new great
granddaughter Charlotte
Hopkins and her parents
Nicole and Dwayne. She
had motored to Medicine
Hat with son Rod who had
been here helping with
harvest.
Grandparents
Rod and Barb Pederson
are equally thrilled with
this lovely little girl.
Halloween was a quiet
evening around town with
only little trick and treaters out and about, so nice

Minnedosa

when they have nice dry


weather for their rounds!
Gordon and Dave
Clark and family attended
a birthday party for daughter and sister Donna and
her father-in-law, Gar
Scott of Neepawa on November 2nd. Gars birthday is November 5th and
Donnas, the 7th. Wishing
both of them many more!
Newdale friends of
Thelma Gill of Strathclair
send our sympathy to her

family, Shirley and Orville


Grills of Minnedosa, Betty
and John Patterson of Hamiota, John and Donna
Gill and Dave and Norma
Gill both of Shoal Lake and
their families on her passing at Morley House PCH
October 27th. Thelma attended many bonspiels in
Newdale and had an active volunteer life around

ON THE FARM
By ELMER KASKIW

Soybean Variety
Choice and Maturity
Data

he relative success
of this years soybean crop has many
growers looking to once
again include it in next
years cropping plans.
Although still somewhat premature it looks
like the 2014 soybean
crop will produce a provincial average yield of
somewhere
between
34-35 bushels per acres
which is below last years
record yields of 38 bushels per acre but still well
above the five-year average of 31 bushels per acre.
Given these yields
there is a lot of pressure
coming from seed companies to secure your variety
for 2015 as acres are likely
to once again see an incremental increase from the

approximate 1.3 million


acres grown in Manitoba
in 2014.
In Parkland or areas
north of #1 Highway, soybeans had a yield range
of between 25-40 bushels
per acres with an average yield estimated to be
in the 30-32 bushel range.
Soybean yield variability generally increased as
one moved north-ward
with areas in and along
#16 Highway reporting
the highest frequency
of sub 30 bushel yields.
Th ese lower yields
could most likely be attributed to the September
15th frost which removed
in many instances as
much as the top one-third
of many soybean plants
that had not yet reached
physiological
maturity.
Th e updated average
frost date in north western
Manitoba is now somewhere between September
10th to 15th. If your soy-

bean crop was not mature


by these dates, you may
need to rethink your variety selection for next year.
This past growing season has been another excellent reference year for
judging soybean maturity
by variety since the crop
was not shut down prematurely by dry conditions in
August allowing varieties
to express their true maturity and yield potential.
Growers are best advised to fi rst focus upon
Days to Maturity when
choosing their soybean
variety with less emphasis
being placed upon overall
yield. The trend in regards
to yield potential of varieties in Parkland regions
is that we are seeing longer season varieties with
higher yield potential actually yielding lower than
the earlier maturing varieties that have lower yield
potential. Days to maturity of between 110 to 120
days are general guidelines for varietal selection
for Parkland areas. These
days to maturity are the
days from seeding to 95%

brown pod (when seeds


rattle within the pods
when plants are shaken).
Unfortunately,
the
Seed Manitoba 2015 soybean data from the 2014
growing season is only
now being compiled so
we only have the soybean
data from Seed Manitoba
2014 and company data
for making a varietal selection.
One of the best strategies when choosing soybean varieties is to consider growing multiple
varieties to see which variety might do best on
your particular farm.
Growing conditions
can vary significantly
within Parkland soils
mainly due to changes in
elevation and soil type.
Higher elevations will
have greater fluctuations
in soil temperature especially earlier in the spring
which can slow soybean
emergence and pod set later in the growing season.
Lower
elevations
and coarser soils are better able to regulate and
maintain soil temperature

which will allow for earlier seeding and somewhat


longer season varieties.
Th e last two years
have likely been a worst
case scenario in regards
to heat unit accumulation during the growing
season meaning most
varieties were pushed to
the limit in regards to the
number of days necessary for them to mature.
In a more typical or
average year many of
these varieties may mature
much earlier especially if
we get a hot dry August.
In such a scenario many
of the very early season
varieties are likely going
to see some significantly
lower yields when compared to somewhat longer but still considered
early maturing varieties.
By growing multiple varieties one is then
better able to mitigate
the risk of growing season variability and its
overall aff ect on yield.
In regards to acres,
soybeans should still be
considered an extremely
high risk crop in Parkland

regions requiring between


110-120 days for maturity
depending upon the growing season. This will mean
that in most years we will
need to be frost free until
mid-September given a
May 20th seeding date.

Bin Monitoring
The fi rst week of November is often when we
fi rst begin to see issues
arise with grain heating
from this years harvest.
As outside air temperatures cool we begin
to see temperature inversions begin to occur
within the bin resulting
in moisture accumulations and heating of grain.
The higher percentage
of tough and varying moisture levels that occurred
with this years harvest
along with some significant diff erences in grain
temperature has made this
years production especially volatile that will require
almost weekly monitoring
until grain temperatures
stabilize for the winter.

OBITUARIES
MAURICE JOHN HOPKINS
OCTOBER 14TH, 1945
- OCTOBER 29TH, 2014
Maurice passed away at the Minnedosa Personal Care Home at
the age of 69 years.
Maurice and his twin brother Merton were born in Winnipeg
and adopted into the Hopkins family where they were raised on
the family farm in the Clanwilliam district. Maurice was always
the big brother who took care of his little sister making sure she
made it to school ok. It was a sign of the kindness and caring
he would show over his lifetime, particularly towards the elderly
or making a child laugh. Maurice attended the Little Clanwilliam
School, Grey School in Clanwilliam and upon completion of high
school in Minnedosa, headed to Brandon to obtain employment,
subsequently acquiring a job at MacLeods. While still in his 20s, his health began to fail and he
returned to Clanwilliam to the family farm, later moving to Minnedosa with Mom and Hayward.
He took on many odd jobs over the years such as working for the Highways Department, assisting
at the Vet Clinic in Minnedosa and janitorial duties at the R.M. of Minto/Odanah where he worked
for a number of years until his retirement. For many years, he could be seen helping Robert
Lane with his auctions. In his spare time he cut grass and tilled gardens for many Minnedosa
residents.
Maurice was a very active member of the UCT. In 2004, he was one of six chosen from Manitoba
and Saskatchewan to receive the Roses for the Living award, the second highest honour
bestowed on UCT members. The award was presented to Maurice for giving unselfishly of
his time, energy and talents for the greater good. Besides his commitment to UCT, he would
also readily offer to volunteer for numerous community events. This was very evident from
the scrapbook of cards and letters received from travellers from around the world, who often
commented on what a great ambassador he was for Minnedosa. When Maurice moved to
Minnedosa, he became a member of the Minnedosa Legion. He also joined a bowling league
and spent many years being the best he could be and when he couldnt bowl, he would keep
score for other bowlers, young and old. He would readily help the elderly, whether it be picking
up their mail, playing cards or just visiting with them. He loved to play cribbage and over the
years beat the odds to get not one but two 29 hands, which he was very proud of. Many years
were spent attending the Seniors Centre and when he wasnt there, he could be found around
town having coffee, at the Clanwilliam Store enjoying lunch and a visit or at Uncle Toms enjoying
his favourite peanut butter sundae. He always had an assortment of keys hanging from his belt
and pens and papers in his breast pocket.
Maurice was predeceased by John Hopkins (father), Alvera Hopkins (mother), Merton Hopkins
(twin brother), Boni Oman (cousin) and Hayward Hopkins (step-father). He is survived by his
sister, Debbie Oman (Rick), sister-in-law Ingrid Hopkins and numerous nieces and nephews.
The funeral was held on Monday, November 3rd, 2014 at St. Marks Anglican Church in
Minnedosa with The Reverend Don Thompson officiating and Father Chad McCharles doing the
eulogy. Interment was at St. Johns Cemetery near Bethany.
Minnedosa Funeral Service was in care of arrangements.

WALTER WILMOT
OCTOBER 30TH, 2004
Ten years ago our Dad drew
his last breath and was gone
from us so quickly that we
didnt have a chance to say
good-bye. In truth, hes
been with us every day since
then, filling our hearts and
our minds with memories
that we cherish. And each
October, when the sun is
shining brightly on a crisp
autumn morning, we all
remember the anticipation
with which he greeted every
day of his life, and the way he
would grin at the thought of
the adventure ahead.
Remembering Dad today and
always with much much love,
Ron, Joyce, Nancy & Wallis.

MARY HORNER (nee McKENZIE)


OCTOBER 29TH, 2014
Mary Horner passed away peacefully at the Minnedosa District
Hospital. Left to cherish her memory are sons Larry McCracken
(Joy) and Alan Horner, daughters Colleen Cowan (Wayne)
and Cindy Grant (Greg), grandchildren Shannon and Nicole
McCracken, Lee and Ryan Cowan, Sean, Laura and Drew
Horner, and Robin and Laurel Grant, great-grandchildren Levi
Lepird and Bo and Brenna Cowan, sisters-in-law Joyce, Lorna
and Pat Horner, brother-in-law Archie Londry and many nieces
and nephews. She was predeceased by Harvey, her husband of
60 years who passed away in December of 2013, by her first
husband, Ed McCracken, her parents Donald and Anna McKenzie,
sisters Annetta Kinney and Florence Banks, brothers-in-law Wilbert, David
(Pete), Elliot and Alvin Horner, Harold Kinney, Ted Banks, and Bert Thorkelson, and sisters-inlaw Eunice Thorkelson, Winona (Nonie) Londry and Fern Horner.
Mary was born and raised on the family farm near Eden, Manitoba, the middle daughter of
Donald and Anna McKenzie. Spending her early years on a small farm during the depression
had a huge influence on Marys life, teaching her to make the full use of everything she had
available. She attended school in Eden and worked briefly in the telephone office in Brookdale
after graduation from high school. Mary married Ed McCracken in 1940 and returned to Eden,
where Ed worked as a mechanic. Son Larry was born in 1942 and daughter Colleen on Dominion
Day in 1945. In 1946, the family moved to Minnedosa, where Ed passed away in 1950.
Mary was a skilled seamstress and took in sewing to support the young family. A pair of pants
desperately needed hemming served as a wonderful reason for railroader Harvey Horner
to introduce himself to her. Mary and Harvey were married on June 19th, 1953, in the United
Church Manse, as Reverend Matchett`s first wedding in Minnedosa. The family soon expanded
with the birth of son, Alan, in August, 1954 and daughter Cindy in March, 1958.
Harvey always wanted to return to farming and in 1960, he and Mary purchased a farm in the
Havelock district, south of Minnedosa. The dilapidated farm house must have been a bit of an
adjustment after leaving a new home in town, but the old house was quickly replaced and the
farm became a precious part of Marys life. Harvey continued to railroad as well as farm for the
next 25 years, so Mary and the kids played a major role in dealing with the chores and with the
frequent emergencies that arose while raising chickens, turkeys, beef cattle, milk cows and very
briefly, a few pigs. Mary was a master of time management, juggling farm chores, gardening,
sewing, book-keeping, and running kids to school and activities. She was deeply involved in the
community as a 4-H leader for both the Minnedosa Home Economics and Beef Clubs and as a
long-term member of the Royal Purple Lodge and the Hospital Aid. She also worked for decades
at the polling stations at election times. Mary and Harvey were dedicated legion members and
the Saturday evening dinners were very special to her.
Mary was never afraid to try something new. She was well over 60 when she decided to take
up golf and became an avid member of the Ladies Seniors league. She continued with the sport
until past her 90th birthday. She also enjoyed her baseball games at the Riverdale picnic, first as a
player, and then as an enthusiastic spectator after she broke her leg successfully stealing home.
After the kids were grown, Mary and Harvey took advantage of the freedom to travel. Mexico was
a favourite destination, and they explored not only the beaches, but also many of the agricultural
and historical areas throughout the country. They visited Hawaii, Europe, the Caribbean, and
many parts of the United States. In one year, they spent the first day of summer in Alaska and the
first day of winter in Australia, bringing in the new millennium in Adelaide. A very special trip
came in 2000 when they travelled to Marys family home in northern Scotland and reunited with
an aunt, cousins and their families in Achnagarron, near Inverness. Mary took great delight in
visiting the spots around the family blacksmith shop that she had heard about in stories from her
mom and dad or that she vaguely remembered from her last visit there when she was two years
old.
Marys greatest joy was her family. She never missed a school play, field day or 4-H show.
Mary was never too busy to spend time with the grandchildren, who knew that grandma would
always be there with a cookie and a hug. The kitchen was truly the heart of the home where
Mary served out home baked bread, long conversations and decades of delicious family dinners.
Thanksgiving was especially important, to be held not necessarily on the proper date but as
a celebration when the crop was finally in the bin. She was planning the menu for this years
belated thanksgiving dinner when she was admitted to the hospital.
During her life, Mary saw many changes, from going to school in a horse-drawn van to flying
to countries on the other side of the world that she could only have dreamed about as a child.
Above all, she loved her years on the farm with Harvey. She remained in her own home on the
farm until her final illness.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimers Society or the Minnedosa Legion.
Minnedosa Funeral Service in care of arrangements.
