Prairie party chiefs push Ottawa to aid farmers in three provinces
Manitoba MLA W. McKenzie and colleagues joined Alberta and Saskatchewan caucus leaders in Regina to urge the federal Liberal government to release 876 million dollars from the grain stabilization fund and end the farm fuel tax. They called for energy and finance measures to relieve farmer pressure and boost the national economy, and planned to press ministers and MPs for action. Also noted is the obituary of Pauline Alyward, detailing her life, family, and funeral arrangements in Roblin Manitoba.

Wyredox water purification method eyed for Roblin town
The Wyredox Method uses oxygen enriched water injected underground to boost natural bacteria that oxidize iron and manganese, purifying water without heavy ground-level equipment. Costs to install start around 155000, with conventional systems around 106000, and long term maintenance favors Wyredox. The town also reviews lighting and railway crossing safety, with CN Rail rebuilding Main Street crossing within two years and sidewalk plans under consideration.

A Footnote to History by Will Koraluk
Early prairie grain hauls before rail grids formed involved long sleigh trips from Nipawin to the Leather River and Tisdale. Four horse tandems carried 150 to 200 bushels, with round trips taking three days and wages up to 80 dollars per trip. Extensions of rail lines ended the cavalcades and memory of the four horse hitches. Bob and Sharon Hughes announce birth of daughter Hollee Blair March 1 1984 in Flin Flon Hospital weighing 7 lbs 15 oz with coalitions of grandparents mentioned.
