Municipal property break-ins continue

Bryan PassifiumeECA Review Reporter

A series of break-ins at municipally-owned properties across east central Alberta have local police busy and town administrators beefing up security.

As reported in the Review, the Coronation town office was burglarized in the early morning hours of Friday, February 15 with thieves making off with about $200. The Coronation arena and curling rink was also broken into with about $300 in draw money being taken from the arena.

The same night as the Coronation break-ins, several properties in Hardisty were broken into. Burglars broke into the Hardisty Bottle Depot as well as the Hardisty arena.

Thieves entered the Hardisty Arena, according to town CAO Sandy Otto, by prying the front doors. Once inside, the thieves attempted to break into a pop machine. They were unsuc-cessful and left the arena empty handed.

Not so lucky was the Hardisty Bottle Depot. Once inside, thieves managed to leave with an unspecified amount of money.

According to Sgt. Lee Brachmann of the Killam RCMP detachment, the investi-gation into the Hardisty break-ins is ongoing and no suspects have been identified.

The Town of Viking also saw break-ins that evening, with

the town’s bottle depot and Elks Hall falling victim to two separate burglaries.

A little over a week later, a similar break-in occurred in Consort. In the early morning hours of Monday, February 25, unknown burglars forced their way into the Consort Sportex, causing several thousand dol-lars in damage.

After gaining entry, the thieves destroyed the doors to the bowling alley and conces-sion stand, as well as destroying the village-owned ATM machine. Cash floats from the bowling alley and curling rink bar were stolen, as well as money from the ATM.

“It’s sad that people would do this,” said Consort CAO Monique Jefferey. “If they would work as hard at a job as they did in this break-in, the wouldn’t need to be breaking in to places.”

Jefferey told the Review that the thieves were especially merciless with the complex’s ATM, completely destroying the $3000 machine in order to access its cash box.

Unrelated to the break-ins, several buildings around Lake Hardisty fell victim to racist vandalism. Hardisty CAO Sandy Otto reported several swastikas and foul language were spray painted on a new shower house recently con-structed at the lake. Otto reported that cleaning the damage from the graffiti and the break-ins will cost several thousand dollars.

While the Stingers defeated Coronation 31 - 22, the girls had enough points to move on to play Blessed Sacrament in Wainwright on Thursday, February 1. The girls lost 46 - 53, finishing their season third in the league. ECA Review/B. Passifiume

Clive Council contributes to purchase of fire truckBryan Passifiume

ECA Review Reporter

Clive Council has voted unani-mously to contribute 50 per cent of the cost of a new fire engine for the County of Lacombe.

The motion was made by Councillor Luci Henry at the Monday, February 25 village council meeting.

The fire engine, a Rosenbauer pumper provided by Rocky Mountain Phoenix, will cost $330,492 plus $15,000 for inci-dentals. Clive’s contribution will consist of $60,000 from the village’s fire truck reserve fund, $20,000 from the 2013 fire opera-tions budget and the remaining $85,246 financed via debenture.

SkidsteerThe public works

department is also set to get new equip-ment. Council approved a $73,800 expenditure to pur-chase a new skidsteer plus attachments. The unit, a Caterpillar 262C series 2 loader, will come with var-ious attachments. The money for the purchase will be drawn from the vil-lage’s road equipment reserve fund.

the Clive Athletics and Agricultural Society provided an update on the arena upgrade project. As reported in the Thursday, January

Paintearth County Council gets wrap-up from Capital PowerBryan Passifiume

ECA Review Reporter

In their final presentation to Paintearth Council, representa-tives of Capital Power paid a visit to the county’s council meeting on Tuesday, February 26 to explain the final stages of the Halkirk wind project.

The wind farm, Alberta’s largest so far, went online in late 2012 providing 150 megawatts per day to the province’s electrical dis-tribution system.

Capital Power, represented by Project Engineer Sandeep Sharma, public consultation man-ager Jennifer Lowry and Construction Manager Jay

Walker, answered questions about the construction and detailed the final steps in finishing the project.

According to Lowry, final reme-diation of the land will take place in the spring when the ground thaws. While the wind turbines themselves occupy a relatively small footprint, the land sur-rounding the turbines was

disturbed to facilitate construc-tion. Capital Power promises to return all disturbed land not occupied by turbine sites or access roads to the state in which they were before -- part of what the firm describes as their commitment to foster good rela-tions with landowners.

As spring approaches, con-tractors will return to the sites to complete the final clean up. As a result, locals should expect to see an increase of vehicles around the site.

Capital Power also reported that aside from a worker sus-taining an injury to a finger, no injuries were reported during the construction.

As part of the wrap up, the local information phone line

that was in use during construc-tion will be disconnected. Lowry stated that inquires about the wind farm can be made directly to the facility’s office in Halkirk.

As for future engagement, Capital Power said they have received several tour requests from local schools and commu-nity groups. They are also planning a leaseholder meet and greet event in the late spring, which would allow local land-owners to meet and enjoy a barbeque lunch as a thank you for their patience during con-struction. Capital Power is also planning on erecting several roadside interpretive panels that would give passersby infor-mation on the facility.

24 edition of the Review, a $193,209 grant from the federal government helped ensure the ongoing arena renovations and allowed the society to meet their fundraising goal.

The ice plant in the arena was replaced in August of last year, with the remaining projects to be completed throughout this year. The arena will receive a new heating system, a wheelchair lift

for the observation gallery, new boards and glass for the ice surface, plumbing and electrical upgrades and an expanded work area for the ice resurfacer.

Oatway also gave her final report for the Clive Centennial celebra-tions held in August 2012. Mayor Anita Gillard thanked Oatway for all of her hard work.

Two receive Diamond Jubilee medalsBryan Passifiume

ECA Review Reporter

Two Coronation residents were recog-nized for their many years of service.

Deputy mayor Bonnie Danylyshen pre-sented Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee medals to Janet Zimmer and Dr. Lynne McKenzie at a ceremony during the Monday, February 25 Coronation Town Council meeting.

Both recipients were honored for their long service to the community and con-tinued efforts to make Coronation a better place to live.

Deputy mayorCouncillor Bonnie Danylyshen has been

named Deputy Mayor for the Town of Coronation. With the resignation of Mark Stannard, the position of deputy mayor was rendered vacant. With the absence of Mayor Dawna Elliott at monday’s council meeting, the move was necessary to facili-tate town business.

Sewer repairsPublic works director Alan Smith gave

a presentation on the town’s ongoing sewer repairs.

The town’s cast iron sewer mains have been a constant source of problem for public works crews, as the pipes are prone to breakage due to corrosion. Public works crews were busy in February dealing with sewer line breaks, including a three inch hole that occurred near Edward Street and Alexander Avenue. After applying the patch, a second hole was discovered in close proximity to the original hole, requiring another patch.

Work on replacing the line with a corro-sion resistant PVC pipe commenced on Wednesday, March 27. Smith told council that plans to line the pipe instead of replacing it was not possible due to the condition of the pipe.

“We were originally looking at running a plastic tube inside the old line,” Smith told council, “but upon inspection the line was too far gone.”

The new sewer line is a continuous flex-ible plastic PVC pipe. It is corrosion proof and has greater resistance to seasonal ground movement that can break rigid utility lines.

It will cost the town $30,000 to repair the line, including equipment rental and con-tractor hire. According to town CAO Sandra Kulyk, the town had already spent over $20,000 in repairing the line over the years.

BullyingBullying is now against the law in

Coronation with the passing of the revised Community Standards by-law.

The idea for adopting an anti-bullying came in response to an article printed in the Thursday, November 22 edition of the Review that outlined Hanna’s adoption of a similar by-law in Hanna. Citizens approached Coronation Mayor Dawna Elliott about the possibility of the town drafting its own by-law.

The town’s existing Community Standards by-law, according to CAO Kulyk, already addressed bullying. Mayor Elliott told council that the wording in the by-law was too generic, and something more specific was needed.

The revision adds a specific definition of ‘bullying’, defined as the “real or threat-ened infliction of physical violence and attacks.” Acts named in the definition include racially or ethnically based attacks, gender-based put-downs, name calling and verbal taunts, emotional abuse, extortion or theft of money or prop-erty, hazing and social outcasting. The by-law also states that bullying can occur via written or electronic means.

The by-law also specifically prohibits both the production and distribution of video or photographs of acts of bullying, as well as cheering or encouraging. Documenting bullying for evidence is permitted.

The new by-law also defines the term ‘public place’ as property where the public has reasonable access and can include town-owned properties, public parks and recreation centres and schools.

First-time offenders face a $250 fine with a $1000 fine levied for subsequent offences. First time offenders may have their fine reduced by half if they attend an RCMP-approved anti-bullying educational program.

Off-Highway VehicleThe Town of Coronation’s off-highway

vehicle by-law is once again enforceable after the adoption of a revised version.

Changes to the by-law were made after the Review discovered that the town’s existing by-law lacked a list of penalties for offences.

Penalties for infractions are now included in the by-law, and range from $150 to $300 for operating quads, pocket-bikes, snowmobiles and similar non-highway vehicles inside the town limits.

CORONATION COUNCIL

State of emergency declared in OyenBryan Passifiume

ECA Review Reporter

The wild weather that struck much of southern Alberta on Sunday, March 3 ren-dered many roads impassable and stranded hundreds.

The situation in Oyen was so dire that the town declared a local state of emer-gency due to the severe conditions. According to Oyen CAO Hermann Minderlein, icy roads and blowing snow made Highway 9 a hazardous drive from Hanna to the Saskatchewan border. Numerous motorists on the stretch were left stranded when their cars either went

into the ditch or conditions made driving impossible.

Under the town’s emergency plan, free beds were made available to those who found themselves stranded by the storm.

With the town’s few hotel rooms claimed in a matter of hours, dozens of stranded motorists faced a cold night in their cars.

“You couldn’t get a hotel room anywhere from Drumheller to Kindersley,” Minderlein said.

The first motorists were billeted in the homes of local residents, with the surplus housed on cots in the town’s Legion and United Church.

While many of the stranded motorists

were able to drive into Oyen on their own, some weren’t as fortunate.

“Some were able to bring their vehicles into town, but the RCMP had to pick up some people from the side of the road,” Minderlein said.

Minderlein and his wife were among the town residents who opened their homes to stranded motorists, in his case a woman and her two teenage children from Saskatoon. The three had spent the weekend in Banff and made it as far as Oyen before weather forced them off the road.

Opening the community to stranded motorists is nothing new for Oyen. A

storm last March had the small town bil-leting over 150 after a freak blizzard caused numerous accidents and road closures.

“People here definitley have the commu-nity spirit,” Minderlein said. “Everyone stepped forward and opened their homes on a sunday evening.”

He offers his gratitude to the local church community, the Oyen Legion and the proprietor of the Shopeasy grocery store who provided food to the stranded motorists.

From ancient China to modern AlbertaBryan Passifiume

ECA Review Reporter

For those who practice it, Kung Fu is more than just a means of self defence -- It’s a philosophy. It’s more than just a means to focus and direct the forces of the body and the mind, it’s a way of life.

Kung Fu, unlike other martial arts styles such as Tae Kwon Do or Karate, is not a singular term. The term refers to the collection of all of the Chinese martial arts, all with histories dating back centuries.

Bridging the gap between ancient China and modern Alberta is Cody Borek, owner and instructor at Castor’s Studio C. Borek not only owns the only Traditional Wing Chun studio in western Canada, he is the youngest person ever permitted to teach the ancient art to students.

Wing Chun is one of the more popular forms of Kung Fu, primarily due to the movie industry. Bruce Lee was perhaps the most famous practitioner of this mar-tial art through his movies, helping to launch the west’s interest in Chinese mar-ital arts.

Borek’s journey started in his home-town of Stettler, where he started his Wing Chun training under his master, or sifu, Stettler’s Warren Stratulate. Stratulate himelf trained under the leg-endary Grandmaster William Cheung, the Chinese Kung Fu master who in 1953 trained Bruce Lee in Hong Kong. Grandmaster Cheung is the founder of the Traditional Wing Chun branch of Kung Fu.

In 2010 Borek was fortunate enough to be one of a few Traditional Wing Chun students in the world to be personally invited by Grandmaster Cheung to train with him in China, an experience Borek describes as ‘amazing.’

While in China, Borek spent three weeks on a strict regimen of training, both with other participants and Grandmaster Cheung himself.

Two years later, Castor is home to the only Traditional Wing Chun training studio in Western Canada. Permission from Grandmaster Cheung himself was required to open the studio, which was readily given.

It was his fiancée opening a coffee shop in Castor that prompted him to move east from Stettler. Borek took possession of the main street studio space in January and starting to teach classes soon after. As popularity in the studio grew, Borek expanded his focus by bringing in local Zumba and Yoga instructors to teach.

Kung Fu, according to Borek, is more than just a means of self defence - it’s a means of combining ones mind and body to achieve an overall sense of wellness.

“It’s a way of life,” he says.

Borek calls Traditional Wing Chun as a very sci-entific martial art. He says that it’s about using and directing physical energy in intelli-gent and meaningful ways.

“It’s all about smarts, it’s all about science.” he says.

He describes Wing Chun as a means to perform moves and strikes using relaxed mus-cles without tension. Unnecessary muscle tension leads to fatigue and is a waste of energy. Borek can actively

demonstrate this principle with various techniques, including the famous ‘one inch punch.’ Made famous by Bruce Lee, it is an ancient technique that delivers a devastating blow with the practitioner’s hand positioned just a few centimeters away from its target. A demonstration of such a hit man-aged to wind this reporter and knock him back several feet, even with the blow cushioned with several notebooks.

Borek stresses that the brain is the most important tool in prac-ticing Traditional Wing Chun. To that end,

he teaches his students that their training doesn’t stop when they step outside of the studio. Borek says that the techniques that Traditional Wing Chun teaches, even during mundane activities as driving or eating meals, can

help students throughout their daily lives.

Parents of his students have reported dramatic results. He cites two younger students in his class, one of whom was diag-

nosed with ADD and another with Autism.

“Working with them, we’ve already seen a

huge improvement with them in the past few weeks,” he says.

He also states that several of his students have seen their hockey

games improve, thanks to their

increased mental alertness.

Congratulations to Brian Reister and Melina Boisvert upon the birth of a daughter. Shanika Lillian Reister was born March 1 in Edmonton just after midnight. She weighed six pounds 10 ounces. Shanika is grandchild number 12 for Dan and Grace Reister. Jeannot Boisvert and Lillian Matteau are the other grandparents.

Lillian Matteau of St Eugene, Quebec is visiting here with her daughter Melina to help out with the new baby.

Judi Solonick is the Queen Mother. Well, her daughter, Kim is Miss Yukon, Sourdough Rendezvous Queen. Kim, aged 50, entered the contest with nine others in this 49th annual winter carnival.

She sold most of the tickets which was 30 per cent of the marks. A talent contest and Yukon knowledge were also part of the challenge. Kim will now go on to other queenly duties through out the year. Judi has just returned from her visit to the north. She was there for the rendezvous.

Mayor Muriel Fankhanel has returned from a much deserved two week vacation at Sun Lakes where she golfed with neighbours Derek and Brenda Heyink.

The Alliance Rockets Hockey team played in the S.T.A.R.S. Tournament in Forestburg this weekend. Many fans followed them and contributed to the cash raised from the silent auc-tion to go to the support of our air ambulance.

Women’s Institute meeting on Wednesday will have handicraft as a topic as well as more plans for our 100th anniversary and the garden project.

We are selling

spring bulbs as a fundraiser. Teachers convention for our

area takes place on Thursday and Friday in Edmonton so there will be no school for our students.

Teela Curtis was home for the weekend so Connie Beingessner got the whole family together to celebrate her birthday. Happy Birthday Teela.

The Meet Your Neighbour night is fast approaching. As in years before, it starts with a mixer game, pot luck supper then on to the silent auction. This silent auction everyone has code names for bid-ding. The United Church hosts the event and the proceeds go towards the operation of the church.

Mark your calendars for March 16 for this opportunity to come and meet your neighbour. I know that there are several “old timers” who have not met many of the “new” folks.

Karin McCracken was the winner of the AWI grand prize in

our lottery. She won $50 Alliance Value Vouchers. A new lottery with early bird draws every month starts at the next market.

There is a lot of work going on just east of our place as the ground is prepared for the new railway siding to load oil. This will be a second place to load oil. The train is really busy hauling cars back and forth.

The Friends of the Battle River Railway have found a passenger car that they would like to buy.

The big fundraiser will be in Alliance on April 13. This is a catered dinner and concert with the Tracy Miller Band, a silent and live auction and a dance. Lots to do for $50 a ticket. Call me if you need tickets, 780 879-3970.

Coronation Council considers development ideas for Coronation campgroundBryan Passifiume

ECA Review Reporter

A proposal to build a miniature golf course near the Coronation Dam site was met with mixed reac-tions from Coronation town council.

In a letter to council, the Coronation ChooseWell Committee declared their inten-tions to develop a long term plan to create a memorial park and mini golf course. The committee intends to build the project on a small parcel of land at the Coronation campground, adjacent to the entrance of the facility.

The land, according to the com-mittee, is currently unused. An old baseball backstop is located at the site, but according to campground staff and town councillors it had gone unused for quite some time.

While not present at the meeting, Councillor Jackie Brigley submitted several questions about the project in a written statement.

Brigley was concerned about who would be responsible for the upkeep of the project. Bernie Danylyshen, who attended the meeting on behalf of the Coronation ChooseWell Committee, said that community volunteers or possibly a part time staff member hired by the com-mittee would look after it, or possibly be attended to by current staff members of the campground.

Brigley also stated in her notes that the town should be concerned with maintaining existing infra-structure and not “opening a small business for someone.”

Danylyshen said that the com-mittee would build the memorial gardens and minigolf course and

hand it over to the town to operate and collect revenue from. He stated that the course could be an additional source of revenue for the town.

“We envision this as an eco-nomic development opportunity for the town,” Danylyshen said. He mentioned that control of the minigolf course could be under-taken by the clerk at the campsite’s ice cream shop.

Brigley was also concerned about the town’s liability in the event of either vandalism or damage to surrounding cars or campers.

Danylyshen stated that the lia-bility for a minigolf course is no different than the existing base-ball backstop. He added that the vandalism argument is irrelevant and not an issue worth discussion, a sentiment that many on council

agreed with. “The vandalism argument

would shoot almost any idea down,” he told council. “I’m not even going there.”

Plans for the memorial gar-dens involve planting 100 trees with some set aside for pur-chase by members of the community. Upkeep of the trees would be maintained by the committee with individual

donors being responsible for their own trees.

“I see the area around the dam as underdeveloped,” said Danylyshen, added that the goal of the committee being the larger expansion of the area. He stated that the minigolf course would not only give local resi-dents another summertime activity, but also give visitors to the area something to do.

Save us from ourselvesBrenda Schimke

ECA Review Journalist

It’s an interesting dilemma. The Alberta Government is suffering a revenue crisis at the same time the province’s economy is growing at twice the national average and unem-ployment is the lowest in the country.

It must be giving the proponents of trickle-down economics a big headache.

In a nutshell, the “trickle-down theory” argues that lower taxes puts more money in the hands of people and corporations--which leads to more consumption and investment-- more jobs--and finally more government tax revenue.

The architect of the trickle-down theory, Milton Friedman, never consid-ered the probability that freed-up money would be siphoned away from the juris-diction that gave up the tax revenue.

For example, many Albertans have used their savings, pensions and disposable income to invest in homes down South and live up to six months away each winter. They become eco-nomic drivers for those states, not Alberta.

Yet when snowbirds return, there is an expectation that our medical ser-vices, government pensions and seniors’ facilities will be there for them when they need it.

The same is true of corporations that outsource jobs. Take for example Calgary-based Imperial Oil Ltd.’s and U.S. parent, Exxon Mobile Corporation’s decision to outsource large fabrication contracts for their Kearl oil sands project to Korea. It is Korea’s economy that benefited, not Alberta’s.

Yet at the U.S./Canada border, Exxon/Imperial Oil expect to have weight-bearing roads in place to transport these huge components to Fort McMurray. These companies also expect well-trained post-sec-ondary graduates to fill operating positions and have no qualms about adding extra government costs to sup-port temporary worker programs.

Now there is absolutely nothing wrong with Canadians choosing to be snowbirds, nor them having an expec-tation to access Canadian health care and benefits on their return. And it is a corporation’s job to maximize profits

for shareholders so if out-sourcing jobs does it, that fulfills their mandate.

But once money, which normally would have been paid as taxes, leaves the province without creating jobs, investment or consumption then the trickle-down economic theory falls flat on its face.

Trickle-down economics works in a closed or semi-closed economy. In a global economy, the jurisdiction with the low-tax regime eventually jeopar-dizes its own financial security. The money that would have been collected in taxes is gone and is not returning, yet the need for government services continues unabated.

It’s similar to pushing fresh water down oil wells to generate more production. Invaluable, life-sustaining fresh water is lost forever.

Ronald Reagan became the first champion of trickle-down eco-nomics in the 1980’s. That com-bined with the promotion of free trade agreements, reduced protec-

tionism and globalization has, within 30 years, taken the U.S. to its financial knees.

None of us like higher taxes, but it’s a trade-off. Stable funding for health, education, seniors’ care, policing, municipalities, infrastructure, or con-tinued yo-yo budgeting.

One year we’re drunken sailors spending like fools, the next we’re slashing and burning programs near and dear to our hearts.

When are the collective ‘we’ going to get over the notion that we’re somehow entitled to the lowest corpo-rate and personal taxes in Canada yet demand the best services?

It’s a hard reality to face, but for the sake of long-term financial stability, the government must address ALL of Alberta’s financial problems—spending, non-resource revenues, savings and expectations.

Premier Allison Redford has the opportunity to show gutsy leadership and take the political flak necessity to save us from ourselves. To address all our budget problems, especially non-resource revenues and expectations, will take moxie on the part of the gov-erning Conservatives. The budget delivered on Thursday will show just what Premier Allison and her Caucus are made of--politics or substance!

Overpaid and not capable of governingDear Editor,

I agree with Premier Redford there is no comparison between doctor’s salaries and that of the Premier. Doctors have to take years of training and demonstrate their skills and ability to be a doctor.

The Premier to date has done neither. How did she get to the position she holds today? First she bought a leadership race with taxpayer dollars by making a promise that she did keep.

She then bought an election with pie in the sky promises that many knew she could never keep. After getting elected her party produced a budget that could not be kept.

For months after she claimed that the finances of the Province were just fine,

suddenly an excuse from the Premier, the price of oil has dropped so we will have to run a deficit. (Between $3-6 billion? Give us a break.)

Then the scandals broke after such a short time as Premier. Most politicians take many years to build a scandal sheet that long. I have yet to see much of a posi-tive nature come from this current government in Alberta.

Premier Redford has done nothing to show she has any skill or ability to be Premier of this great province. Definitely Premier Redford is overpaid and is not capable of governing the province. The best for all would be for her to resign.

Light at the end of the tunnelLois Perepelitz

ECA Review Freelance

Is it true? Are we really in the month of Spring? Are we really at the end of the long months of short grey days, cold tem-peratures and snow?

It must be true, the cal-endar says so. The days are getting longer and the tem-peratures are starting to rise and so are my spirits. Yes, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I can’t wait to get there.

My thoughts have already turned to green grass and flowers blooming; probably because my mailbox has been stuffed with catalogues from greenhouses. The flowers look so beautiful and I try to picture this one in that corner, and that one over there.

Maybe this will be the year that I will win the battle of the weeds and get those flowers blooming in my own yard.

Looking through the catalogue I find the perfect flower for the north end of my house: beautiful big blooms, nice thick bush, perfect. I check the symbols by the description, apparently this plant needs full sunlight and a home in a different part of the country.

This business of having blooming

flowers is not as simple as I thought. Some flowers want lots of sun, some want shade and some want both; not only that, some are even fussy about where in this country they live.

Thankfully, the catalogues have pro-vided a map showing the different zones

that flowers like and don’t like. Okay, now I wonder how firm those lines are. Will the flower from that zone grow in my zone? When I look at the map I am not that far away from it, so maybe it won’t know that it is not where it is supposed to be.

I pay attention to the sun sym-bols also, but how much sun is partial sun? Is that the sun it would get on the west side of the north end of the house, or the sun it would get on the east side of the

south end? This is too much brainwork; it is starting to boggle the mind. I just want to go dig in the dirt with the sun warm on my back.

I think I will just go to the local green-houses. They will know all this stuff and they have all kinds of little baby plants for me to pick from, so that all I have to do is find a weed free spot and plant them.

Now I just have to wait for all this cold white stuff to go away so the sun can warm up the ground. It won’t be long now, yes, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Survival still is about production costsby Kris Ringwall, Beef

Specialist, North Dakota State Univeristy Extension Service

The times are good pricewise for cattle, but cattle producers have a lot on their minds these days.

Calving has started on many ranches, and the complicated production scenarios already are constantly churning for producers.

Unfortunately, the dollars associated with many produc-tion scenarios often are in place well before adequate financial evaluations are done. The critical point is that the dollars are coming in well, but the dollars going out also are growing.

The cattle business costs money.

In visiting with Jerry Tuhy, farm business management instructor at the Dickinson Research Extension Center (www.ndfarmmanagement.

com), he noted that free mar-kets will tend to price commodities at or near a break-even point for the bulk of producers.

In other words, high-cost producers will be the first pro-ducers to lose money in good or bad markets. No market will remain positive enough that all producers will survive the financial tests through time. Cost control remains critical at all times in the cattle business.

In the current world, compe-tition from the energy- and food-producing sectors of agri-culture is real.

The competition between land uses, such as crops grown for human consumption, crops for energy and crops for live-stock feed, is very real. Given Mother Nature’s hesitation to provide moisture, the competi-tion only gets tougher.

Grass is becoming even more of a premium. Despite

agriculture’s tremendous effort at keeping energy costs low and feeding people, the price is high as these inputs return to farms and ranches as needed supplies.

Cost control is the driver for sustaining beef operations and is achieved by the continual evaluation of the planning process.

We need to return to the North Dakota Farm Management Program, along with the FINBIN (http://www.finbin.umn.edu/) database from the Center for Farm Financial Management at the University of Minnesota.

These programs allow our discus-sion to focus on the dollars and sense involved in the beef enterprise.

A good place to start is gross margin.

According to Tuhy, gross margin accounts for the purchase and sale of all calves, cull cows and bulls, plus ani-mals transferred in and any overall changes in cattle inventory.

The bottom line: Gross margins reflect the amount of money cattle producers have to work with.

In the bigger pic-ture, if gross margins are very small, a producer needs to ask why he or she is involved in the beef business because the money in and the money out are a wash.

Well, that is not true in the beef busi-ness because those producers who have at least 50 cows and were involved in the 2011 North Dakota Farm Management program had $729 in gross margins.

Without going too far back in time, these cattle producers have had stable to increasing gross margins to work with.

FARMERS’ FERTILIZER ALLIANCE


From 2006 through 2010, cattle pro-ducers who were enrolled in the North Dakota Farm Management program had gross margins of $578 in 2010, $451 in 2009, $464 in 2008, $543 in 2007 and $529 in 2006.

In 2011, the total direct and overhead expense was $546 per cow. Although the 2010 gross margin was above 2011 expenses, 2009 through 2006 gross mar-gins were all below the current 2011 expenses.

In other words, if cattle prices returned to the prices offered from 2006 through 2009, cattle producers would be oper-ating in the red, which is not a pleasant thought. The total direct and overhead expenses per cow from 2011 back to 2006 were $546 in 2011, $466 in 2010, $464 in 2009, $452 in 2008, $445 in 2007 and $424 in 2006.

A quick review of the numbers points out that, even though average gross margins have been good, if recent expense numbers are any indication of future expense numbers, expenses are accelerating.

From 2010 to 2011, expenses jumped more than 17 percent, while gross mar-gins jumped more than 26 per-cent, thus the increase in net returns for the cattle producer.

However, the

red flag still is there, so it will be inter-esting when the 2012 numbers come out as to where production costs are going.

For now, the point remains: The cost of production is a large, sustainable block in the survival of beef operations.

A simple fact is that producers need to plan well while on the high-speed road leading to cattle profits as the 2013 year engages.

May you find all your ear tags.

Wind erosion - prevention and reclamation Agri-NewsWind erosion physically removes the

most fertile part of the soil from fields. The top layer of soil is lighter, less dense and is made up of soil constituents such as organic matter, clays and silts.

Once this layer has eroded away, what is left is exposed subsoil which is more dense and compacted, has poorer soil structure, lower fertility, appears stonier and, due to poor water infiltration and lower soil organic levels, tends to easily crust after a rain.

“Wind erosion can be a huge problem and can be very destructive as it takes away the most fertile part of the soil,” says Dr. Ross McKenzie, senior research scien-tist - agronomy with Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development.

“During a wind erosion event, the top-soil containing the small granules, silts and clays that hold much of the essential nutrients for crop growth, are lifted up and removed from the field.

“As well as removing topsoil, wind ero-sion removes organic matter, the storehouse for plant nutrients, and acts as the ‘glue’ to hold soil particles together to give the soil its structure.

“Vegetation protects soil from wind ero-sion by reducing the wind speed at the soil surface. Vegetative cover, such as a growing crop, standing stubble or crop residues are very effective in helping moderate the potential of wind erosion.

“The elimination of cultivation and using direct seeding are the best ways to maintain crop residue on the soil surface.”

Wind erosion was a frequent problem

across the drier regions of southern Alberta, but with the adoption of conser-vation tillage and direct seeding, wind erosion is no longer a frequent occurrence in southern Alberta on dry-land fields.

However, in irrigated areas, cultivation is still frequently used and on lands used for row crop production, particularly for sugar beets, potatoes and beans, great care is needed to keep wind erosion in check.

“If soil erosion occurs, there are some practices that can be done on a temporary basis,” says McKenzie.

“For instance, producers may need to consider using emergency tillage to break up the smooth surface of a bare field into a rough cloddy surface. A very rough soil surface can reduce the wind velocity at the surface and provide traps to catch windblown soil particles.

“Producers who have problem fields may need to consider working perpendic-ular to the prevailing wind direction to obtain maximum effect. Continued field observation and care are needed as this type of emergency tillage is only a

temporary protection measure, because when soil clods are broken down by the wind, the field becomes smooth and sus-ceptible to wind erosion once again.”

To minimize wind erosion on fields grown to row crops or root crops that are harvested:

• leave the as much residue on the soil surface as possible,

• leave the soil as rough and ridged as possible,

• spread straw and manure onto areas most prone to erosion,

• seed to cover crop as soon as possible after harvest (after bean or potato har-vest) to crops such as barley, fall rye, winter wheat or another winter cereal.

“Reclaiming eroded soils is a very long, slow process,” says McKenzie.

“The first thing that needs to be done is soil sampling to determine nutrient and organic matter levels. If there is subsoil exposed, it may be necessary to do some deep tillage with a para-plow and go down up to 20 inches and actually reduce the bulk density by fracturing and loosening the soil.

“Doing this deep tillage in the fall when the soils are dry, will help to ensure good fracture and breakup of the soil. Then going in with a very good application of manure and put on a very good applica-tion (30 to 50 tons per acre of feedlot manure) would go a long way to improve the physical condition of the soil and the nutrient level of the soil.

“While that amount of manure may sound like a lot, most eroded soils are very deficient in nutrients and the manure will help to improve the physical quality of the soil.

“The following spring, on eroded soils it’s recommended to establish a forage crop rather than an annual crop. An alfalfa grass mixture works well as it pro-vides nitrogen benefits.

“If establishing straight grass, some nitrogen application will be necessary.

Establishing a permanent crop for at least five years will help build up the organic matter, root material, root mass and root channels will be very beneficial in reclaiming an eroded soil.”

To reclaim an eroded soil, producers should consider:

• deep tilling to reduce bulk density,• soil testing to determine deficienciesapplication of manure in the range of

30 tons/ac to further reduce bulk density, improve soil nutrient reserves, increase soil organic matter and reduce soil crusting,

• if sufficient manure is not readily available, consider applying high rates of phosphate fertilizer (100-150 lb/ac of P2O5),

• applying other nutrients as required, particularly nitrogen,

• establishing forage crop if possible to build soil organic matter and improve physical quality of the soil.

Oilfield ServicesTimely, relevant information for business success

The Alberta government is making it easier for businesses to find information about services and regulations that affect them.

“We heard quite clearly from the Red Tape Review Task Force that more needs to be done to support small business growth in Alberta,” said Thomas Lukaszuk, Deputy Premier and Minister of Enterprise and Advanced Education.

“Business owners have said that easy access to timely, relevant information is important for their success.

“Consolidating all of this infor-mation online will help support new and existing businesses to prosper and grow.”

A new landing page accessible with one click from the main Government of Alberta webpage (http://alberta.ca/BusinessServices.cfm) consolidates information on business services, such as:

The Business LinkThe Business Link - offering free

to low-cost business seminars for business startups, helping entre-preneurs grow their business;

Productivity AlbertaProductivity Alberta - offering

tools and services to help compa-nies become stronger by showing them how they can increase their productivity and profitability;

Rural Alberta Business Centres

Rural Alberta Business Centres - where advisors provide one-stop access to information services that support the development, growth and success of small businesses in rural communities;

BizPaLBizPaL - an online permit and

licence service providing a com-plete list of permits and licences from all levels of government; and,

Alberta Innovates ConnectorAlberta Innovates Connector -

offering free, personalized services connecting innovators and entre-preneurs to resources, people and organizations.

The landing page also provides a link to a new webpage listing all 1100 government regulations.

It also includes a new feedback function so that Albertans can comment on proposed regulations.

The improved access to business services and regulations reflects input that the Alberta government heard from business organizations and the recommendations of the Red Tape Review Task Force.
