The discussion centers on budgeting for a deficit with a 1967 surplus used to cover a $42,000 shortfall. Council models a $500,000 budget with a $458,000 deficit, noting taxes were not fully collected and cash surplus is not yet realized. Mr Reid and Mr Bernstrom differ on whether a cash surplus exists for the new year.
Mr Bernstrom reports the 1967 budget surplus is theoretical while 98 percent of 1967 taxes are paid. The CN R and Federal Government remain delinquent on 1967 payments. He notes a government grant of 11000 but pushes to lift the 5 percent ceiling and seek more grants.
Minor hockey baseball and figure skating reps demanded immediate payment of 800 from The Pas. Spokesman Bob Paetech urged honoring the Recreation Commission’s October recommendation before its dissolution, fearing 1968 grants depend on 1967 disbursement. Mayor Trager cited commission resignations and new-commission setup as delays, with Councillor Reid assigned to act quickly.
The Kinsmen Club asks Council to cancel 1967 Kin Kourt taxes of 2339.60 due to a 2200 deficit from unforeseen costs. Rentals rose February 1 to offset costs but exclude the deficit, enabling 1968 taxes to be paid mid year if forgiven. Welfare reports show January payments of 1483 with 112 owed by The Pas, rest collectible from Manitoba. Police logs count 310 January complaints with more intoxication theft and assault cases.
The Pas Herald notes cows increase feed intake to maintain body temperature at very cold temperatures. It advises feeding more liberally to thin cows than fat ones as energy requirements rise in -20 to -30 degree conditions, with cows compensating by eating more.
Bob Christopherson explains three winter cow stages early pregnancy final trimester and early lactation with nutrient needs for a 1000 lb cow. He cites daily requirements during early pregnancy including protein 1.4 lb TD N 9 lb calcium 13 grams phosphorus 12 grams and vitamin A 18000 units while noting hay quality impacts supply.
