Frontier Box Sale Supports Food Bank

a big garage sale,” said Hall. lar Frontier patrons who One of the participants in

F rontier Trading Com-

pany held a Box Sale
last week, from August
14th to August 16th. The
sale was set up in front of
the store, and was held
due to a large supply of do-
nations Frontier has gra-
ciously received.
Catherine Hall ex-
plained that when they
have a surplus of dona-
tions, Frontier holds a box
sale, where patrons can
purchase a small box for
$2, or a larger box for $3,
and are able to fill the box
with as many items as will
Frontier clients and
staff were also collecting
donations during the
course of the sale, for the
Minnedosa and Area Food
Bank. Anyone who do-
nated to the food bank was
given a voucher towards a
future purchase at Fron-
tier.
The tables used for
the box sale were supplied
by the local Masonic Hall,
and were filled with items
that had never been out on
the store shelves before.
This alone, brought all
kinds of excitement for the
attended the special sale.
During the three-day
box event, sales totalled
over $1,000. There were
a lot of people who at-
tended the first day of the
sale, eager to check out
what was available and
fewer customers the next
two days. “We had a really
good turnout,” said Cath-
erine, adding that the sale
was a great success.
On the final day of the
Frontier box sale, the group
chose an Elvis theme, since
it marked the 41st anniver-
sary of the day that “the
Frontier’s day program is a
huge Elvis fan, and dressed
up like Presley for the day.
Additionally, there was
Elvis karaoke.
In addition to the
money and food that was
collected by shoppers for
the Minnedosa and Area
Food Bank, Frontier Trad-
ing Company intends to
make a $200 donation to
the group. “We utilize their
services for some of the in-
dependent living in our
community, so we thought
we would give back a little
bit,” said Hall.

B en Fox, of Dauphin,
is the third person to
announce his intention
to run for the Conserva-
tive Party of Canada in the
Dauphin-Swan River-Nee-
pawa riding.
Fox has spent his life
ranching near Dauphin,
and decided to put his
name forward for the nom-
ination due to an obliga-
tion he feels to give back,
or serve, his community.
“This opportunity is a good
one, to be able to go to Ot-
tawa and represent this
constituency in a way that I
feel I can do a good job at,”
he said.
His interest was
sparked some time ago. It
has been on his mind to get
more involved in politics
for some time. He knew
the time was right when
current Member of Parlia-
ment, Robert Sopuck, an-
nounced that he will not
seek re-election at the Fed-
eral level of government.
ition would be a good fit
for him.
Fox has had a lot of
support in his decision to
seek the nomination. He
was previously president
of the Manitoba Beef Pro-
ducers, and through this
role he gained a familiar-
ity with many of the beef
producers throughout the
province. He was also able
to meet many entrepre-
neurs and business owners
who have been supportive
of his decision as well.
If successful in being
nominated, Ben would
like to represent the rid-
ing to the best of his ability.
“I want to make sure our
needs and wants are heard
and met in Ottawa and to
make sure it’s not the other
way around.” he said. “I
would also look forward to
rescinding the Liberal Car-
bon Tax that has been im-
posed, and to do away with
that unnecessary tax on
the people of our constitu-
front of peoples’ minds,
and he does not see the
benefit to being charged
more for the goods needed
to survive. He also sees
the crime that occurs in
our small communities as
a big issue, and would like
to help find a way to re-
solve this. Additionally, he
would like to help support
the instruction of skilled
labourers in all fields, in
order to ensure that skilled
workers are available. He
made specific reference on
this point to the agricul-
ture industry, and ensur-
ing that farmers are repre-
sented well in Ottawa.
Since announcing his
intentions of running as
a PC candidate, Fox has
had a lot of positive feed-
back from a wide range of
people, in a wide range of Photo submitted
industries. “They have all
been supportive and we’ve Ben welcomes residents look forward to discussing

Experiencing The Past At Heritage Day
Continued from Page 1
Those attending Heritage Day could
tour the museum buildings at their lei-
sure checking out thousands of donated
artifacts that make up the museum collec-
tion.
There were also a number of live pi-
oneer demonstrations throughout the
grounds. Near the north end of the village,
the Munro Blacksmith Shoppe was once
again brought to life as Jonathon Proven
spent the day onsite demonstrating the
blacksmith trade. In front of the historic
Cadurcis House, Carol Ross gave spinning
demonstrations and taught this unique
skill to anyone wishing to give it a try. Over
in the Hopkins log barn, museum board
member, Tony Mullie gave rope making
demonstrations which was a huge hit with
the kids in attendance and many young-
sters were seen proudly carrying around a
rope they had made!
In the Manley log house, the old-
est building at the Heritage Village, dat-
ing from 1886, attendees could visit with
long-time museum volunteers, Earl and
Freda Thompson. Earl is a past chairman
and honourary life member of the Minne-
dosa District Museum and Heritage Vil-
lage. Other long-time museum volunteers
attending Heritage Day included Vern
Phillips, Jane McKinnon and Marg King-
don.
Another popular attraction of Herit-
The Minnedosa Tribune
age Day is the classic vehicle display and
this year, a good selection of a dozen
vehicles from days gone by were on dis-
play. Those checking out the vehicles
could visit and get all the details from the
vehicle’s proud owners.
Afternoon entertainment includ-
ed some dance demonstrations on the
dancefloor in front of the Octagon build-
ing. First up were members of the Brandon
Circle Eight Square Dance Club. Based
out of Brandon, this club has been dan-
cing since 1964 and is made up of couples
from all around Westman. Jim McDonald
of Boissevain serves as the club’s caller
and called out the dance steps throughout
their performance.
The day closed out with a lively, enter-
taining and colourful performance by the
TNT Family Dancers. Throughout their

Heritage Day 2018 was captured on
video by Minendosa Access 12 for local
viewers. A cameraman from Travel Mani-
toba was also on site to capture footage for
the video prize package the Minnedosa
Museum won earlier this year for being
the runner-up in the March Madness on-

was voted the second favourite museum
by online voters coming in only 16 votes

T he 2018 harvest season
has officially kicked off
and is underway a bit ear-
lier than usual. Around
the region, the sight of
swathers, combines and
grain trucks are becoming
common once again.
Due to dry, warm con-
ditions in the Southwest
Region this summer, many
farmers have had cause
for concern this year with
many crops ripening pre-
maturely.
The winter wheat and
fall rye have seen average
yields this year, and are
of good quality. For the
spring cereal crops, the
majority have been har-

to assist in crop dry down.

Remembering The Practice of Backsetting
By Alex CAmpBell
Interpretation Committee
manitoba Agricultural
museum
I n a number of accounts
of homesteading there
is mention of the practice
of backsetting which was
carried out when break-
ing sod. Just what back-
setting actually involved
was unknown to the In-
terpretation Committee at
the Manitoba Agricultural
Museum (MAM) until the
Committee obtained a
book on the history of the
Red River Valley. The book
contained a paragraph in
which backsetting was de-
scribed as plowing virgin
prairie sod to a depth of
two to three inches mak-
ing sure that the grass and
vegetation was completely
rolled under. Then, at a
later date, the field was re-
plowed at a depth of five to
six inches. While the para-
graph does not describe
which direction the re-

plowing took place in, from
descriptions of how tough

sod was to cut through, it

it is an interesting photo more likely there was going at places, this vegetation
because of the large num- to be trouble. So, what was does not appear to be ce-
real stubble. From the ap-
pearance of the trend soil,
particularly as it formed
long ribbons, we were of
the opinion that it was sod
being turned over. It was
also noticed that between
the second and third oxen
from the left and continu-
ing towards the horizon in
the photo, the appearance
of the rolled over dirt is no-
ticeably rougher and more
heaped up. It was then re-
alized that the photo is of
a farmer carrying out the
practice of backsetting and
the wheeled implement is
more than likely a single
bottom riding plow. Back-
setting would explain why
the farmer needed six oxen
on the plow.
As the farmer riding
the plow is wearing a coat,
it is likely that he is plow-
ing in the fall. Just when
the original plowing took
place is not known but
judging from the lack of
weeds and grass growing
on the turned over sod, it
is likely the first operation
that took place that sum-
mer.
Next spring it is likely
the field would be plowed
once more with a set of har-
rows being also dragged
across the field to smooth
out the surface, making
the field ready for seeding.
Being as this farmer pos-
sesses a riding plow and
six oxen, he may have en-
tered homesteading with
Photo submitted
some amount of assets
accumulated elsewhere
and may possess a drill or
seed dribbler to seed the
field with. A seed drib-
bler resembled a drill only
with no disc openers, slid-
ing shoes or hoe openers.
A dribbler had a seed box
with a fluted drive to mea-
sure seed out. The seed
just fell on the ground and
a set of spring shanks with
teeth mounted on the seed
dribbler buried the seed.
Of course, in the pioneer
era the farmer may just
have broadcast the seed by
hand and lightly plowed or
harrowed the seed in.  eveners were fastened di-
It is noticeable that
the oxen are not fitted with
the heavy wooden neck
yokes usually associated
with oxen but rather with
collars and chain traces.
There is also a rope fas-
tened around the base of
the horns of the right-hand
ox with the end of this rope
then tied to the horn rope
immediately to the left. The
horn rope of this ox is then
tied to the ox to the left of
this animal. This is repeat-
ed all down the line of oxen
effectively “daisy chaining”
the horns together.
One can also see a
strap of some sort on the
right-hand animal lead-
ing up over the back of
the animal and tied to the
outside horn of the animal.
This may be a leather trace
used to control the direc-
tion the ox is taking, by
pulling on the horn of the
animal. There also appears
to be a strap running over
the back of the left-hand
ox which may be attached
to the outside horn of this
ox. With the horn ropes
in place, when the farmer
wants to turn to the right,
he pulls on the trace at-
tached to the outboard
horn of the righthand ox
which turns this animals

head right, pulling the
heads of other oxen in this
direction through the horn
ropes. As the heads turn
right, the team turns right.
How the farmer got
the oxen into motion is
not known as there is no
not to beat the animals
with but rather to make
a cracking noise behind
the animal’s ears which
annoyed them and made
them move.
The chain traces of
the right-hand ox appears
to be fastened to what ap-
pears to be a wooden pole
which is probably serving
as an evener. There ap-
pears to be a heavy rect-
angular beam laying on
the ground immediately
in-front of the plow wheel
that is seen in the photo
which is likely serving as
an evener bar. Given that
there are six oxen in the
hitch, it is likely there are
three eveners with two
animals chained to each
evener. The heavy evener
bar is then needed as each
evener can be chained to
the bar and the bar then
fastened to the plow. If the
rectly to the plow when the
animals began pulling, the
outboard pair of animals
would begin to crowd in
on the centre team which
would then cause prob-
lems.
The tongue of the rid-
ing plow is visible between
the third and fourth oxen.
There is a neck yoke hang-
ing between the third and
fourth animals, chained to
the bottom of each of the
animal’s collars, which is
supporting the end of the
tongue and keeping it off
the ground. The tongue’s
purpose was to steer the
plow as the tongue steered
the right-hand front wheel
of a riding plow.
Ox collars were a dif-
ferent design than the col-
lars used on horses as the
ox pulls from the top of
the animal’s neck whereas
a horse pulls from lower
down on the neck. Gen-
erally, it is believed that
wooden neck yokes for
oxen were more common-
ly used than neck collars
but as we can see here, ox
collars were in use. It may
have been that collars were
easier to use than neck
yokes when a multiple
oxen hitch such as the one
seen here, was needed.

Introduction to Shellfish
Cooking
With
CHEF DEZ
A
s part two of a ser-
ies of three columns
on shellfish, this one will
continue to focus on crus-
taceans. If you missed my
previous column on crab
and lobster, please email
me at dez@chefdez.com
and I will be more than
happy to send it to you.
Crustaceans is the
grouping that represent
crabs, lobsters, shrimp,
crayfish, etc. They are all
more “creature like” than
mollusks (the other shell-
fish category which will be
my focus in the third in-
stalment) because of their
visible legs and eyes. They
are usually thought of only
living in saltwater, which is
true for the most part, but
there are some forms of
crayfish, crabs and shrimp
that also inhabit bodies
of fresh water. Lake of the
Woods in Kenora, ON,
where we vacation quite
frequently, is a perfect ex-
Part 2 of 3
ample of this. There are
many crayfish to be found
and some fisherman focus
solely on these for their
catch of the day.
The availability of
prawns and shrimp is
much more common than
crayfish. Rarely available
live, the markets near the
coast will have prawns
and shrimp available fresh
(never been frozen), how-
ever elsewhere they are
usually purchased either
frozen or thawed from fro-
zen. Small shrimp are also
available in cans.
Prawns and shrimp
as we know them in the
market are actually only
the tails of these creatures.
Some prawns are avail-
able with the legs and shell
still attached, but rarer are
some larger varieties sold
in whole form, eyes and all.
When purchasing
them frozen, there are
many options and you
will need to take into ac-
count how you plan to
serve them, when making
your selection. Very small
shrimp, whether frozen,
thawed or canned, are al-
ways sold pre-cooked, but
with larger prawns one
also has the option of pur-
chasing them raw. Frozen

cooked prawns should be
purchased for recipes that
require little or no cooking
of them since they are al-
ready cooked. Overcooked
prawns are very rubbery
and less flavourful. Ex-
amples of applications for
cooked prawns would be
for a salad, shrimp cock-
tail, or for adding at the
end of a cooked dish. Prop-
er thawing of your prawns
is recommended to pre-
vent bacteria growth.
Whether cooked or
raw, the recommended
procedure for thawing
them is in the refrigerator
over a period of 24 hours.
This is a gradual thaw that
keeps them in a safe tem-
perature storage zone. If
you are in a hurry, then a
water thaw can be accept-
able as a second choice.
This is done by putting the
frozen prawns in a bowl in
the sink. Fill the bowl with
cold water and continue to
run a slow stream of cold
tap water into the bowl. The
water level will obviously
overflow so make sure that
drain is open. Keep run-
ning the stream of cold
water until the prawns are
thawed approximately 15
to 20 minutes depending
on their size.
Raw prawns pur-
chased fresh, frozen or
thawed obviously need to
be cooked, but one should
never overcook any shell-
fish, because they become
rubbery. They should
only be cooked until they
just turn pink for optimal

flavour and texture, and
be served immediately.
Raw prawns are available
peeled or unpeeled, with
or without tails, and de-
veined or not. Deveining
of larger prawns should
always be done. The “vein”
is the long dark intestine
imbedded along the top
length of the prawn. If
the prawns you have pur-
chased are not deveined
this can be easily per-
formed by running a knife
blade along this line until
it is exposed. It then can be
simply pulled or scraped
out.
Prawns that still have
their shell on, but have al-
ready been deveined are
frequently called “zipper-
backs”. These are perfect
when you want to serve
prawns as a finger food
when your guests peel
them as they eat... aptly
called “peel and eats”.
           
Dear Chef Dez,
I heard someone referring
to prawns as a 20, 25. What
does this mean? Rachel T.
Dear Rachel,
This is referring to their
size. A 20/25 prawn is
large. It means that there
are approximately 20 to 25
prawns per pound. There-
fore, prawns considered to
be 32/36 would be much
smaller, as there would be
an average of 32 to 36 per
pound.
