Glenboro Man Watches as Car Is Destroyed at Reunion
Ralph Henderson of Glenboro narrowly escaped harm when a Versatile D-100 tractor at the Austin Threshermen’s Reunion rolled free from idle and rammed into his Mustang and Pontiac. A passenger was thrown off the tractor, and Henderson says the scare left him drained mentally and physically. An American firm, Louisiana Pacific Corp., shows interest in a Swan River Valley orientated strand board plant needing 150 workers and 280000 boards annually, which could benefit local hardwood forests. Manitoba farmers grapple with livestock stress as drought bites.
