The Manitoba Good Roads Association Judges Committee will send two teams from Winnipeg on August 1 to inspect all member municipalities south of the main line including Roblin. They will select the best farmstead in the province, with likely candidates in this area, led by Mr. J. E. MacAulay.
The CPR group led by Mr. W Kane will inspect all municipalities north of the CPR main line. The association reports rising membership from Flin Flon to Emerson and aims for 100 percent Rural Municipalities participation in 1957. With 14,000 miles travelled in 1955 likely to be exceeded, it backs bigger grants for snow removal, market roads, and a provincial highway system to meet modern traffic. Weather favors road work and judges predict keen, close competitions across classes.
This guide offers practical advice for car trips with dogs. It recommends seven hours no feeding before travel, a twenty minute pretrip walk, and consulting a vet for calming bromide capsules. It also suggests frequent breaks, and if parked, keeping Fido in a shaded spot with as much window openness as safe.
Notes from Brandon Manitoba describe late blight signs on potato foliage and the preferred Bordeaux mixture treatment. Temperature and humidity accelerate spread, so watch late varieties. Also cover other diseases like wilt and mosaic with weekly culling of diseased green tops to ensure better seed quality next year.
Tenders will be received by the undersigned on or before Wednesday August 6 1956 at 12 o'clock noon for Van Route 13 Ward Jolliffe Waggoner Paradowski Milcharek Werbowski and Coleman.
