  • 6.4 Land Drainage & Ground Water
    6.0 Infrastructure Development 6.4 Land Drainage & Ground Water Poor drainage has always been a major problem in the study region. It confronted and defeated some of the first settlers during the 1870s, and for many years prevented widespread settlement of the Red River Valley, despite the richness of its soil and the ease in which the open prairie grasslands could be broken and cultivated. The long-standing problem of land drainage existed for several reasons. The many creeks and rivers flowing from the highlands in the eastern part of the region regularly spilled their banks during the annual spring melt, flooding the farmland on the 'flats' in the western part of the study region. Due to the extreme flatness of the land in the Red River Valley, and the impervious nature of the clay subsoil, this water tended to remain on the surface, and only very slowly drained away or evaporated. Such waterways, which flowed into semi- permanent marshes, without outlets, were known as ‘blind creeks’ and there were a number of them in the study region. Drainage ditches and canals were constructed in the valley by the early 1880s, and these initially succeeded in draining off much of the excess surface water. The Manning Canal, in particular, constructed in 1906-08 in the area south of the Seine River, facilitated the draining of several large permanent marshes in that area. Some of the earliest drainage projects involved the Seine River and Mosquito Creek near St. Malo, and the 'flats' south of Dominion City. However, as new farms were cleared and roads constructed in the hitherto undrained territory of the eastern highland regions, more and more runoff was directed into the upstream drainage canals, overloading them and choking them with silt and vegetation.

    RReeaarr VViieeww MMiirrrroorr October 2009 / Volume 7 No. 2 “Pity the poor Historian!” – Denis Jenkinson H. Donald Capps Connecting the Dots Or, Mammas, Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Historians.... The Curious Case of the 1946 Season: An Inconvenient Championship It is practically impossible to kill a myth of this kind once it has become widespread and perhaps reprinted in other books all over the world. L.A. Jackets 1 Inspector Gregory: “Is there any point to which you wish to draw my attention?” Sherlock Holmes: “To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time.” Inspector Gregory: “The dog did nothing in the night-time.” Sherlock Holmes: “That was the curious incident.” 2 The 1946 season of the American Automobile Association’s National Championship is something of “a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma” as Winston Churchill remarked about Russia in 1939. What follows are some thoughts regarding that curious, inconvenient season and its fate in the hands of the revisionists. The curious incident regarding the 1946 season is that the national championship season as it was actually conducted that year seems to have vanished and has been replaced with something that is something of exercise in both semantics and rationalization. In 1946, the Contest Board of the American Automobile Association (AAA or Three-A) sanctioned six events which were run to the Contest Rules for national championship events: a minimum race distance of one hundred miles using a track at least one mile in length and for a specified minimum purse, a new requirement beginning with the 1946 season.

  • Stu Davis: Canada's Cowboy Troubadour
    Stu Davis: Canada’s Cowboy Troubadour by Brock Silversides Stu Davis was an immense presence on Western Canada’s country music scene from the late 1930s to the late 1960s. His is a name no longer well-known, even though he was continually on the radio and television waves regionally and nationally for more than a quarter century. In addition, he released twenty-three singles, twenty albums, and published four folios of songs: a multi-layered creative output unmatched by most of his contemporaries. Born David Stewart, he was the youngest son of Alex Stewart and Magdelena Fawns. They had emigrated from Scotland to Saskatchewan in 1909, homesteading on Twp. 13, Range 15, west of the 2nd Meridian.1 This was in the middle of the great Regina Plain, near the town of Francis.

In 1920 they moved into Regina where Alex found employment as a gardener, then as a teamster for the City of Regina Parks Board. The family moved frequently: city directories show them at 1400 Rae Street (1921), 1367 Lorne North (1923), 929 Edgar Street (1924-1929), 1202 Elliott Street (1933-1936), 1265 Scarth Street for the remainder of the 1930s, and 1178 Cameron Street through the war years.2 Through these moves the family kept a hand in farming, with a small farm 12 kilometres northwest of the city near the hamlet of Boggy Creek, a stone’s throw from the scenic Qu’Appelle Valley.
