Prairie cattle win through hay lottery on drought relief
Alberta rancher Brian Vitek and 149 other livestock producers were drawn from nearly 8,000 entrants in a Hay West lottery to receive donated hay from eastern farmers. The program, aided by the Humane Society CP CN Ontario Quebec volunteers and the federal government, has mobilized rail transport and funds approaching 30 000 dollars to move about 800 tonnes of hay to the prairies with the first rail cars expected in Wainwright this week.
