Lite 1. D - Lap Dance Uncensored Version. TK Otserv Editor v1. However, while these may be tough nuts to crack, none should be deal killers. After all, in a strategic sense Canada has more to gain than lose from achieving better access to a market that is approximately 11 times bigger than its own economy.
This column was distributed by Troy Media and edited for length. The next week, everything should be done right now. The list of tasks is long. There may be last minute seed cleaning or seed acquisition. Fertilizer may need to be delivered. There may be granular herbicide to spread. Some fields may need harrowing for residue management, or perhaps fertilizer is banded in advance of seeding.
Weed burnoff needs to be accomplished either before seeding or just after. Which fields are dr y enough?
Where is the weed growth heaviest? Has anyone caught the latest weather forecast? Just how does the auto steer work on this newto-you implement? What step are we missing to make the seed blockage monitors work? And amidst all the distractions and challenges, you need to keep the seeder rolling as continuously as possible.
Running longer days to make up for lost time may seem like a great theory, but all the associated tasks still need to be done and people still need to sleep. Extra labour is available for seeding on many farms, but many of the jobs are specialized.
There may be only one person on the farm who normally runs the sprayer. Or perhaps Grandpa, who still likes to help out, can no longer fill the seeder by himself.
The teenagers in the family are. How do you find time to properly train new people? And how do you keep all these people fed without wasting valuable time? Then there are all the curve balls to deal with.
A monitor malfunctions and a replacement has to be ordered from the main factory. The local fertilizer dealer is having trouble keeping enough sulfur or phosphorus on hand, and you have to wait for the next truck to arrive. The fertilizer you bought last fall at a higher price than what you could buy it for this spring has lumps that are blocking fertilizer tubes. As days grow long, tempers can grow short. One of the greatest joys in farming can be working with family, but it can also be one of the greatest frustrations.
Being a farmer must look pretty easy from the outside. You just ride up and down the field with hands. You even have time to play on your smartphone. However, for the people running the show, the skill set required is amazing.
You need to be equipment operator, mechanic, agronomist, negotiator and human resource manager all rolled into one. On top of that, it helps to have good business relationships with input suppliers, machinery dealerships and your lender. To p m a n a g e r s p l a y t o t h e i r strengths and know how to compensate for their weaknesses.
Somehow, they can keep on top of all aspects of the operation and calmly resolve issues as they arise. Farmers come from a multitude of backgrounds and vary widely in sophistication and ability. By any business standard, many have developed an amazing level of management acumen. Kevin Hursh is an agricultural journalist, consultant and farmer.

Why was Michael so happy? The same reason I was — and am — although I was seated at the time, and it was hard to jig. Robin Booker was in the building. Robin was our most recent journalism school intern from the University of Regina, and spent three months with us last fall. I have seen a lot of interns in my time, and Robin was one of the best. Now he has graduated, and we are collectively thrilled that he has accepted the position of web reporter and editor at The Western Producer.
I admit that I am inclined to gush rightly when talking about the staff here, but believe me when I tell you that Robin is going to be a great addition to the editorial department. Here is a bit of his history. Robindecidedhisfuturelayelsewhere, and he enrolled at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, where he took an honours degree in sociology.
Soon after, he returned to Manitoba to take over family land near Roblin, and is the fourth generation to manage the farm. But Robin always enjoyed writing, so he decided to shift careers and attend journalism school. When he joined us for his practicum as part of his degree, he had already logged some real time at the Brandon Sun. Last summer, Robin decided to try something fun and new, and agreed to host a music festival on his farm. I think he is still contemplating turning it into an annual event.
Robin is a kind, mature person who has a lot of skills. He can write a sentence! He is also going to make our website much, much better. Welcome to The Western Producer, Robin.

When The NDP became government in , the hog herd numbers were in the vicinity of three million. This expanded and ballooned to over nine million and was recognized as being No. Which makes me ask: Where is it written or promised that when a business venture expands to.
Kicking in more money to help the hog producers might be the easiest solution for now, but should the public keep donating into this huge basket with a very large hole? Has the public purse now become the public trough? The question needs an answer: is this a sustainable industry?
For the past 14 or more years, amid the anger, frustrations and anxiety of rural residents, the Manitoba hog industry, with the blessings of provincial and municipal governments, has built huge hog-producing factories nearly anywhere that suited them. They were warned that this uncontrolled growth would eventually burst and the truth is that is. They themselves have been victimized by their gluttony. The hog industry is important and has a future in Manitoba but to succeed, it must change its attitude.
It must adhere to environmental considerations and a recognition of dealing with the realities of economics. There needs to be an acceptance of responsibility. And most importantly, changes to the factory style of raising hogs are. The news media has done a credible job of bringing to our attention the seriousness of the problem. It is very disturbing to realize that recently two young people in Canada committed suicide because life became unbearable due to bullying by their peers.
Young people are not the only ones suffering due to bullying. This certainly is abuse of power and a form of severe bullying by the man who was elected by the people of Canada to lead us wisely and justly.
I am of the opinion that our prime mister rightly deserves the title Supreme Bully of Canada. George E. Hickie, Waldron, Sask. With an established catalogue of aeration and conditioning equipment, high-quality grain storage bins are yet another solution provided by Grain Guard.

I have noticed a large percentage of the letters you print express negative opinions about various factors affecting farming. These factors include high input costs, GMOs, loss of CWB grain marketing monopoly, reduced government spending on agriculture programs and large pesticide advertising budgets.
At the least, this realization will positively impact those close to them. At best, it will improve their health and bottom line. Robert Goossen, Fort Vermilion, Alta. I would like to extend a bouquet to the investigative reporters at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for exposing the extent of tax avoidance and evasion in Canada. It is my hope that the CBC exposure will result in a public clamour that spurs the Harper government into action. The very rich should not be allowed to have their way with politicians, and, by extension, the general public.
OPINION If that lost revenue were to be recovered, it would go a long way toward paying for social services and infrastructure, and reducing or eliminating the deficit. William Dascavich, Edmonton, Alta.
We all love beautiful natural landscapes and thriving economic development, but we should love private property rights more. Because private property rights are the only. I own my body. I own my property. Keep your hands off and we can be peaceful neighbours and trading partners.
Start rabble rousing to socialize away my property rights and we fight. You are upset about the colossal mall planned south of Saskatoon that, in your opinion, is a waste of money. You love the beautiful landscape there and fear that it will be turned into a bankrupt concrete ghost town. More than this, as editor of a prominent newspaper, you are indirectly soliciting political action to block commercial developments such as this.
Respectfully, I say mind your own business and stop starting fights…. The property title will specify whether mineral rights, for example, are included.
It also could specify a restriction of rights, for example. Then again, they may ask you and your supporters to buy their property first and then put the title restriction on yourself. Then it would be your property and your business to restrict it however you want.
No fighting required. I also question your ability to forecast business success and your shortterm outlook. How is it your business to judge whether the colossal mall will be a commercial success or not? You might have said no to Henry Ford and the North American auto. Fast forward years and we now learn that a shrinking Detroit is returning much of their city back to farmland. It can be restored — with lots of jobs for demolition, scrap dealing and remediation as a nice bonus.
I recommend we each mind our own business, take a long-term view and, most importantly, respect private property rights. Arthur Krolman, Calgary, Alta. Energy applies for modest increase , no doubt has many Saskatchewan resi-. But, who should their anger really be directed at? In order for the crowns to improve, replace and expand their aging infrastructure, they are now forced to borrow money — hence the increases. The Sask. Talk about a premier in Devine clothing. Joyce Neufeld, Waldeck, Sask.
It started with the death of my brother because of leukemia. Sadness blanketed our family. My first commitment, to this day, is to help those facing death find ways to find understanding and comfort — including the children. We realize how much spiritual depth has come to us from 3, years ago. To this day new insights leap out at us. Our faith has survived the test of time but is as modern as today.
While urbanization and commercialization now dominate so much of our life, faith-filled colleagues around the world work and pray together as they look at how small communities can remain a vital part of society.

Last year, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada dropped agriculture as one of its core funding sectors. Last week, minister of state for science and technology Gary Goodyear announced that the focus of the. National Research Council is shifting from basic science to applied science meant to produce commercial products. The needs of industry will be a key driver. Canada has a wonderful body of researchers and a history of innovation w ith products like canola.
The basic research must come first and that traditionally has been a government responsibility because industry has a shorter-term vision, he added. If you lose the ability for fundamental research, you lose the attractiveness of Canada for innovation and as a place to attract talent. He said increasing resources must be put into developing genetics and hybrid varieties that can adapt to the challenges of new diseases, erratic weather and drought brought by climate change.
It is on their homestead south of Saskatoon where brothers Ken and Vern ran the family farm for decades. They were brought up with four siblings by their parents who had immigrated from North Dakota in the early s. A great deal of sweat and tears went into the early days of the operation where they raised beef, chicken and pork. Eventually the farm was passed to Ken and Vern who ran a dairy herd, Hereford cattle and grain farming operation.
They kept their equipment and buildings in like-new condition for decades, and when they decided to sell off their equipment it caused quite a stir in the Western Canadian farming community. Unfortunately, Vern passed away in the fall of , but not before he and Ken had chosen Kramer Auctions Ltd. The two have been highly respected members of the farming community and were always favourite faces at livestock sales or auctions over the years.
Ken was on hand to see the rows of equipment sell at the auction, which was held on April 27, The Pfeifer auction was host to over people on auction day. Whether the vehicles and tractors were bought in the s or two years ago, they were pristine. The equipment was lined up for auction with shining paint, perfect upholstery, mechanically sound and without a dent or scratch.
Buyers received excellent value for their money. One of the longest-running independent auction firms, Kramer remains per cent family owned and operated. The secret to their success at Kramer Auctions lies in the pride of service. They are large enough to serve the needs of all types of auctions, yet involved enough to offer personal service.

Farmers will soon be able to benefit from a better selection of online weather and agronomic tools. The WeatherFarm. The detailed site-specific reports give growers information to help make on-the-fly decisions on operations such as seeding, spraying and harvesting.
WIN president Ian Nichols said the organization will be able to use the WeatherFarm data to provide more precise, localized mapping, monitoring and decision support modelling. The additional sites enhance monitoring, said Nichols. WIN operates several networks of weather and environmental monitoring stations in Canada, which provide data to growers, governments, academic researchers and crop insurance corporations. It also develops and maintains crop-specific weather advisory websites, including WeatherCentral.

Several communities are still dealing with high water levels because of localized flooding in areas of poor drainage, but the entire southern half of the province was considered at extreme fire risk May At the same time, fires burning out of control in Alberta forced hundreds from their homes in two counties south and west of Edmonton.
The Lodgepole fire in Brazeau County near Drayton Valley was still burning out of control May 13 and some residents had received onehour evacuation notices.
South of there, in Clearwater County, an immediate evacuation was issued May 12 for the hamlet of Nordegg and surrounding area. Residents were directed to Rocky Mountain House to register. Much of southern Alberta was under a fire ban, but no provincial bans had yet been issued in Saskatchewan.
Local municipalities could issue them if necessary. Officials in both provinces were keeping an eye on the immediate forecast, which they hoped would bring rain. The dividing line is the f o re s t f r i n g e a re a f ro m No r t h Battleford through Prince Albert and Hudson Bay. Ten fires were burning along that line, but none were out of control.
No communities were threatened and none of the fires was bigger than acres. There have been 64 fires this year, on par with last year, even as municipalities dealt with high runoff levels. Patrick Boyle, spokesperson for the Water Security Agency, said southwestern Saskatchewan saw an early, quick runoff with no flooding, which means the area is considerably drier than other parts of the province.
Emergency management commissioner Duane McKay said small fires can quickly become significant prairie fires when temperatures are higher than the relative humidity, as they were for several days. His staff is also supporting the seven rural municipalities, one village and seven First Nations still under declared states of emergency from flooding.
Boyle said the Raduga Creek near. Blaine Lake will remain high for several weeks, affecting farmland and rural roads. McKay said that area, and the Wakaw region, have seen significant road damage, isolating some people and resulting in long detours.
Forty-two people were still out of their homes May 13 and receiving assistance, including a family of three from the RM of Kinistino, two families of three in the town of Aberdeen and one person in the RM of Fish Creek. McKay also said five other people from Fish Creek had selfevacuated. Cereal crops treated with Quilt are protected against rusts, tan spot, powdery mildew and Septoria.

The Worldwatch Institute report links livestock production to the majority of methane emissions in agriculture. The Worldwatch Institute says livestock production is responsible for a majority of methane emissions in agriculture, but livestock groups say modern production methods are efficient.
Both the interior and the exterior have been stylishly redesigned. Reynold Bergen, science director at the Beef Cattle Research Centre, said Canadian research has found much smaller emissions from livestock. Bergen said cattle that once took as many as five years to finish are now ready to be slaughtered within two years. Debate about neonicotinoid use in Canada follows a recent two-year ban on the insecticide in the European Union. The divide over whether neonicotinoid insecticides should be banned as a danger to bees is drawn at the Ontario-Manitoba border.
Western beekeepers, who represent the large majority of the Canadian industry, see no problem and oppose the ban. The products are widely used on canola crops, and bee populations have been increasing. However, beekeeper associations have called for a ban or moratorium in Ontario and Quebec, where significant bee mortality last year was blamed on neonic application to corn seed. A recent decision by the European Union to impose a two-year ban on three popular neonic insecticide products has become part of the focus of the Canadian debate.
The regional split was on the table last week at two meetings on the issue by the House of Commons agriculture committee. Rod Scarlett, Edmonton-based executive director of the Canadian Honey Council, said the council sides with prairie producers, who have more than 75 percent of Canadian bee colonies.
They want any insecticide ban to be based on the science of damage, which is not evident on the Prairies. Ontario beekeeper Davis Bryans had a different view, arguing that 1, of his 3, hives were contaminated by the chemical from local corn fields last year. There was evidence that neonics spread in Ontario because of dust from corn planters, while prairie canola seeders do not spread dust carrying the pesticide from the seed. A Pest Management Regulatory Agency analysis of the disaster pinpointed the pesticide as part of the problem.
Pierre Petelle, vice-chair of chemistry for CropLife Canada, argued that the European ban is misguided public policy that should not be followed in Canada. Petelle also argued that the European decision was wrong-headed and went against evidence from around the world that bees and the pesticide can coexist. They noted that neonics are used on the Prairies without significant impact on bee populations, but they also noted the evidence that.
Is it debatable? A newly issued national biosecurity standard for beekeepers could help the industry deal with bee mortality rates, says a Canadian Honey Council leader.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued the new standard of best practices May 8 after three years of work with the provinces and the honey council.
Scarlett said most commercial bee keeping operations already follow the recommended practices, so the re a l b e n e f i t c o u l d c o m e f ro m improved practices by small-scale hobby beekeepers.
Sometimes problems on the smaller operations can spread to larger. When agriculture minister Gerry Ritz announced the release of the. The European Union has banned neonics for two years and beekeepers in Ontario and Quebec have called for a moratorium on their sale, arguing there is proof the chemical is responsible for bee deaths. We are committed to bringing Western Canadian livestock producers the very best products and feeding programs for beef, dairy, swine, poultry and horses.
Prairie beekeepers responsible for most of the national production have had no problem with chemicalrelated bee kill oppose the idea. After complaints of excessive bee mortality from Ontario beekeepers last year, the agency surveyed the damage and 70 percent of dead bees contained neonic products.
There is no evidence so far this year of a repeat. The main culprit was corn dust containing the pesticide blowing from planting machines, early warm weather and robust winds during corn planting season, he said.
Kirby said PMRA started to work last year on a program of best management practices for farmers, warnings about the risk to bees and a reevaluation of neonic insecticides to assess existing scientific evidence about their impact on bees.
The study will not be completed for several years. Meanwhile, he told British Columbia Conservative Bob Zimmer that a ban on the insecticide product before scientific evidence is conclusive would have serious unintended consequences. Page TORONTO — A growing number of people with food sensitivities is influencing marketplace choices, says a food and health marketing specialist. These consumers are looking for clear information on product labels, she told the recent SIAL food trade show in Toronto.
Marquis also said there is a growing belief that stomach ailments are caused by gluten. Sixty-five percent of the population regularly experiences some kind of digestive pain.
Marquis said gluten-free products were initially created for the celiac market but grew in appeal. Today - Yesterday - Total -. Red Alert 3 Change Serial Key. We just crack it for you! And as we all expected - there is 'Hello' from our salvation Adolf Hitler!
