Late winter and early spring complaints focus on lice and mites that irritate birds and can cut production by up to 20 percent. Lice chew on feathers and skin while mites are bloodsuckers, with some species active mainly at night in roost crevices. Control requires thorough premises cleaning between flocks, separating birds, banning wild birds, and immediate treatment. Malathion dust or sprays, DDT sprays, and nicotine sulfate on roosts are recommended with careful ventilation. A Provincial Poultry Branch booklet offers detailed guidance.
Frank Appleby of Pinkham, a Hudson Bay Route Association executive, said the Prairie Yatmer could have saved 13 cents per bushel by shipping wheat through Churchill to Russia. At a Regina meeting of the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, he noted the port's potential, hindered by ice conditions and prior resistance since the association’s 1911 founding. The plan would shorten shipping distance from Fort William to Settee on the SEAR route and move grain to Russia.
