Saskatchewan Wheat Pool reports poor conditions and delayed harvest

The Wheat Pool survey shows only about 26 percent of wheat acreage planted early, with 32 million bushels remaining unharvested province wide. Surface moisture is adequate at 63 percent of stations, subsoil moisture fair in 16 percent, frost and cool April weather delayed seeding and harvest across eastern and northern Saskatchewan, with 80 of 615 reporting points recording precipitation in May.

Learning to Fly Whirlybirds in Canada’s Helicopter Boom

Young Canadians seek adventure and high pay by training as pilots for Canada’s growing helicopter industry. Carl Agar, “Mr. Helicopter,” started a Penticton school in 1950 and trained many mountain pilots. Four months of study with 75 hours flight time leads to salaries around 10000 dollars or more. Job demand exceeds supply as mineral riches expand in the north and aviation branches spread to new cities by 1961.
