Proogas Looms to Welcome Two New Elevators
Three or four car loads of lumber have arrived for the two new elevators at Proogas. The building gantry for both elevators is expected to be installed at once. Locals note likely competition in construction time. Harry Nelson traveled to Winnipeg this week for Atlas Elevator Co. business. Farmers attended Ed Lawrence's sale of 40 horses and 25 cattle at Clean, with good prices for light driver stock and a Holstein cow selling for 150. Gowing Frost reported 17 pigs from one sow, though hog profit hinges on pork prices amid scarce feed due to poor barley and oats. The community warmly welcomed Capt. and Mrs. Frank Hassell back. The Women's Auxiliary held no meeting due to absences, but interest remains. Telephone links to town improve connectivity, with further circuit connections planned. Canada and the U S must cut wheat use by 160 million bushels to meet Allied needs. 1.105 billion bushels are needed for front-line troops. Surplus export capacity will be 300 million bushels, leaving a 160 million bushel shortfall to be offset by conservation and substitution of foods. Household scientists say reductions can be achieved without health loss.
