Western Manitoba had 13 cases; Eastern Manitoba, nine; the Norman region, five; Central Manitoba, four, and Parklands and Interlake regions three cases each. Under provisions of the Child Welfare Act of Manitoba, action can be taken for removal of a child from an environment contributing to its abuse. During 1972, decisions made relevant to the 81 abused children left 43 of them under home supervision, but with supportive supervision of a social worker. Three children were placed, with the voluntary agreement of parents or guardians, for a specified time in the care of the provincial director of child welfare or a Children's Aid Society. An order of the Family Court placed 15 children into the care and custody of the director or a society for a specified limited time. Permanent wardship, also through a family court order, gave 16 children into care and custody of the director or a society for an unspecified period of time, and resulted in permanent loss of parental rights. Court action was taken against parents in the case of four abused children. Mr. Toupin said that the registry has been placed under the jurisdiction of the director of child welfare and a staff member has been appointed co-ordinator of child protection with responsibility for the operation of the registry and the recently initiated preventive program. -30- .

When the bidding stopped at $1.725 per pound for the lot aver- aging 533 lbs, a fellow in the row in front of him turned around and smiled. “How do you like that?” he said. Forder, who runs about 70 cows, quickly did the math — $919 per head. The sale, which saw roughly 200 yearlings and 700 calves sold fol- lowed by butcher cows for total of 1,226 head, was the second Forder had attended this fall. It confirmed that despite a range of negative fac- tors, calf prices are holding up at decent levels for the second year in a row. “The market is strong right now,” said Forder. “BSE from 2003 to 2009 took the fun out of selling calves,” Fall calves pass through the sales ring at Heartland Livestock Services Virden during the first fall pre-sort sale of 2012. photo: Daniel Winters s ee CALF PRICES on page 6 » Growing projects nearing completion In 2012 over 4,800 acres were donated to Growing Projects for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank By Lorraine Stevenson More soybeans and corn, and of barley, 305 acres of corn, and adding that probably around co-operator staff for the first time, 150 acres of 45 acres of hay.
