Visiting at the home of Phil and Lorna Bater were Phil's sister Gwenda Rondesvedt and her friend Iris Close of north Battleford.

Our weather has been co-operating much better this past while, giving the much-needed rain we were all looking for. There for been heavy downpours, but no flooding in this area compared to other areas of the province where damage has been done to the crops as well as little town sites and farmyards. In our area the heavy rain was too much for some of the tall lush crops and areas have lodged.

The main body of the various crops are all doing well, all headed out and in bloom of various colors. There has been areas with the cabbage seed pods weavel and canola beetle reported and there could be grasshoppers waiting to have their share of the crops and grass lands there are still green. Field spraying is going on.

It has been a little harder on the areas where the haymakers are trying to do some haying in between the rain showers. The hay crops are not as plentiful and the forage is short as in the past years. The R.M. of Glenside workers have been on mowing grass and weeds on all the main roads.

Stanley and Walter Mills of Battleford took in one day of Pion-era Days at the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon. It was a busy day just to get around and see everything at its working stage. The calliope was added to the things to see, Also the baking bread in the clay oven.

The town of Battleford has had a few busy days with the Handcraft Festival, annual parade and fireworks, plus children鈥檚 activities at Fort Battleford. Next comes the North Battleford parade and fair and more fireworks. The summer holiday season is passing by quickly.

Volunteer work is still on a steady pace at the Western Development Museum in North Battleford. A number of recent workshops days for the gas tractor members have taken place. A few more new volunteers have been added to the list and it is nice to see the interest. They can always use more volunteers. Other workshops have also been going on for other projects. The workers and volunteers are now in the process of getting what's needed ready for Those Were the Days Aug. 6 and 7 at the Western Development Museum in North Battleford.
