Warts Often Fade on Their Own D E A R D R . DONOHUE: Would you address plantar warts? I’ve been told they’re from a virus in the body and that nothing can be done for them or keep them from recurring. Is this so? -- D.W. ANSWER: All warts, wherever they are, come from an infection with one of the more than 100 human papillomaviruses -HPV. Individual members of the HPV family have a preference for particular body sites. Some head for the soles of the feet to cause plantar warts. “Plantar” is derived from a Latin word meaning “sole of the foot.” If a plantar wart isn’t kicking up a fuss, it can be left alone. It’s not going to do any harm. Many such warts disappear without any treatment. Some can return, and there is not a whole lot to do about preventing a

second visit. However, there is much to do about a plantar wart that hurts. The method chosen for wart removal must not leave a scar. A scar on the bottom of the foot causes more trouble than does a wart. Look on the shelves of any drugstore for wartremoval products that contain salicylic acid, and follow the directions for application carefully. Be patient. It takes more than one application to get rid of the wart. Duct tape sometimes works. That’s right -- duct tape, the tape you buy in a hardware store. Cover the wart with a piece of it for six days. Remove the tape, soak the foot and then gently rub the wart with a pumice stone, obtainable in drugstores. Reapply the tape after 12 hours. You might have to repeat this procedure for two months before the wart Mention this ad and receive

FNUC deserves that second chance The time has come for the federal government to quit playing mind games with the First Nations University of Canada. Past management misdeeds and careless administration practices were admitted to long ago and rectified. A couple of additional firings of those who were being held responsible for a lot of those error-filled administrative moves were carried out. The misdealing governance body has been released and replaced. FNUC now deserves a second chance to prove itself. Otherwise, what is the alternative? Closing the doors and decommissioning Canada’s first and foremost post-secondary institution for First Nations students would send what kind of message to 35 per cent of Canada’s population who claim Aboriginal or Metis ancestries? Federal Minister in charge of First Nations Affairs Chuck Strahl needs to step up immediately and make the intention clear. The federal government is either in or out with its $7.2 million in funding support. FNUC has made its move and they passed muster as far as the provincial government was concerned. The province restored its $5.1 million in funding support. The university’s new board of directors/governors agreed quite willingly, we hear, to a plan that will see a major accounting firm serve as the intermediary for the dispensing of the provincial funds moving forward. In the following three years, the funding will be directed first to the University of Regina and then on to FNUC to ensure that the funds will be dispensed correctly and in a timely manner and used in the manner in which they

are intended. With those safeguards in place, we find it quite mysterious as to why the feds are still balking at the plan. The money in question, while not minor in scope, is minimal in terms of what other institutions receive from federal coffers. Time is now of the essence. FNUC is in danger of having to close its doors next week; that’s how close this brinksmanship game is being played by Strahl and Company. April 1 was the date given as being the day when the current funds dried up. The final semester was slated to end April 14. That means that students and support staff were having to bet that their teachers and professors just might be willing to stay aboard long enough to see them through to the end of the academic year. But they couldn’t count on it, especially if they weren’t going to be paid for the final two weeks. If no support is found, then what? One of the proudest looking buildings on the U of R campus, a model for First Nations youth across Canada, could be closed. It could be reduced and ridiculed as just another failed experiment for First Nations people. That, naturally, will lead to further resentment, accusations of racism and another division between First Nations people and the rest of the Canadian community. Strong progressive steps toward adding to the First Nations educational experience will be down the drain. Unless there is some kind of terrific alternative plan stirring in the minds of Strahl and his department, we can’t help but wonder out loud … what’s holding this financial support up? It’s not as if restoring funding that was already in place was going to cost this government votes in Ontario and Quebec, and it would certainly reaffirm the very strong voting support they already receive in FNUC’s home province of Saskatchewan. It’s difficult to figure this one out. No votes lost, plenty of goodwill to be gained, support for First Nations post secondary education, new governance, assured administration security. What are we missing here? Is it simply one cabinet minister’s stubbornness?

Now back to those 100 calves. You have just invested $6 into each of those calves. That small investment can be recouped in two ways. If you have a strong genetics package in your cow herd, a good bull can generate the dollars simply by ensuring that the herd doesn’t slip backwards in areas such as weaning weight, average daily gain and feed conversion. More importantly though, if you are not at the top of the curve in those genetic When it comes to livestock genetics, it’s sometimes difficult to gauge what areas that translate into more dollars in your pocket, you need a good bull to push benefits come from purchasing a new bloodline. things. How many extra pounds do you need on a calf going to market to make up That said, I am reminded of an old adage I probably heard for the first time when $6? I was eight or 10 years of age: “a sire is one-half of the herd.” And, producers also need to remember that many sires have a genetic impact It’s a rather straightforward idea to understand. No matter what livestock you which carries forward past the time the animal is culled. raise, when you purchase a new sire, it is half of his genetics in every offspring. Often replacement heifers are retained from within the herd. Suddenly the paWhile a female only puts her genetics into the animals she gives birth to, the ternal sire has an impact on the herd’s genetics of the next generation too. When that male will sire offspring from multiple females. starts to happen, the dollars a good bull generates become more difficult to That means his influence in the herd, and in particular the next crop of gauge, but it is easy to see the impact becomes significantly bigger. stock you will send to market, is far more dramatic. Like many businesses, when margins tighten, you look for ways to trim When you look at a new bull for example, it will likely stay in the herd costs. It is not possible to reduce many costs; electricity costs what it does, as a minimum of three or four years, and in that time will sire well over 100 does fuel, and fertilizer and vaccines. So in the case of a livestock producer, it calves. I use 100 here, because it will make some of the following math becomes a situation where saving a few hundred dollars on a new sire looks easier to follow. like a way to save some money.

• Does your kitty scratch his face constantly? Try switching his food bowl for a plate; deep bowls irritate cats’ whiskers. • Chewing gum stimulates saliva production, making it a good antacid. But

be sure to chew sugarless gum, as it is better for your teeth. • “You can remove garlic or onion smell from your hands by sprinkling them liberally with salt (kosher works well) and rubbing them together for several seconds, then rinse them in cold water. It’s magic!” -P.W. in Indiana • After you clean the oven, you might notice that your racks stick a bit. Spray

a cotton ball or paper towel with cooking spray, and rub it over the edges of the racks until they glide again. Send your tips to Now Here’s a Tip, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475 or e-mail JoAnn at heresatip@yahoo. com. (c) 2010 King Features Synd., Inc.

THE TRADER, THURSDAY, APRIL 1, 2010

Second-Guessing Dog’s Death DEAR PAW ’ S CORNER: I recently lost my dog “Mischa” to an illness, and I’m overwhelmed with sadness and guilt. Her death was very sudden; one day she was fine and then she was not. I can’t help wondering if there was anything I could have done to prevent this from happening. Did I give her the wrong food? Was there something in her medications she might have had a reaction to? I’ve had no answers from the vet. Am I wrong for constantly second-guessing myself? Should I just get over it? -- Devastated in Dallas DEAR DEVASTED: First, I’m very sorry for your loss. Pets are so much a part of our families that losing them can be incredibly difficult. “Getting over” the loss of a pet isn’t something anyone should be told to do -- it’s not unusual to feel sadness for a pet years after its death. A close friend of mine still speaks fondly of his dog King, who died

when he was a boy. And I often miss pets I lost years ago. I personally feel that adults can grieve openly for pets in a way that they can’t grieve for humans. We have to bear up and be brave at the loss of a relative or friend, perhaps be the one who must organize everything. But for a lost pet there are no such barriers to just grieving for them. On the other hand, you want answers for Mischa’s sudden death. More questions should be asked of the veterinarian. What did her symptoms

THE TRADER, THURSDAY, APRIL 1 , 2010 try turnips. HONEY GINGER GLAZED TURNIPS Turnips are delicate, so cook them until they are still firm, but tender when pierced in the center with a knife. Overcooking will cause the sweetness of the turnip to diminish.

A New Flavor Twist for Turnips If you’ve run out of ways to prepare starches like corn, potatoes or rice to serve as side dishes, you might want to try turnips. We have Charles “Turnip” Townshend to thank for elevating turnips to the dinner table. England was formally introduced to turnips when Townshend, a British politician, imported Dutch-grown turnips in 1730. Townshend wanted to use turnips as an inexpensive substitute for the hay that was used to sustain cattle herds throughout the winter. In those days, it was expensive to grow and store hay all winter. To save money, many people killed their livestock in the fall, causing an overabundance of beef at one time. Townshend proved that turnips were an easy-to-grow, inexpensive way for farmers to fatten cattle through the winter, and a delicious vegetable “starch” for humans. Although turnips contain a large amount of

starch, they provide only one third the calories as an equal amount of potatoes. Turnips are an excellent source of vitamins C, B-6 and E, fiber, folic acid, manganese, potassium and riboflavin. Turnips are a member of the mustard family and are related to cabbage and cauliflower. They come in all shapes, sizes and colors. For the sweetest f l a v o r, s e l e c t t u r n i p s that are smooth, small, firm and heavy for their size, with some roots remaining on the bottom. Turnip greens also are delicious and even more nutritiously dense than the turnips. Turnips can be peeled before cooking, eaten raw, sliced, made into a relish or a slaw, diced or julienned, or shredded to make croquettes. Turnips also can be used as a substitute for potatoes in many of your favorite recipes. I n t o d a y ’s r e c i p e , I’ve given turnips an Asian flair by glazing them with soy sauce, honey and ginger. When you’re looking for an exciting new side dish,

Woodworking 101 Q: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been getting more and more interested in learning woodworking -- basic stuff, like how to build shelves and small useful items around the house. Whereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good place to start? What tools should I be looking for? -- Jared H., Seattle

weeks -- plus materials fees. And an array of tools are typically provided for students to use. Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotten familiar with the basics of woodworking, the type of tools you purchase is

up to you. A friend of mine has slowly added an array of power tools and a table saw to his basement workshop, with more equipment planned as his wallet allows. Building shelves, cabinets and other household items yourself can save quite a lot in labor costs, money you can put toward betterquality materials or other home improvements. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a skill that I think is fading as progress marches on. My friend the woodworker has been at it

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A problem in getting a workplace project up and moving might upset the Lamb, who likes things done on time. But be patient. The delay could turn out to be a blessing in disguise. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your instincts are usually on the mark, so if you feel uneasy about being asked for advice on a certain matter, it’s probably a good idea that you opt not to comply with the request. GE M INI (May 2 1 to June 20) You might have two minds about a proposed change (which often happens with the Twins), but once all the facts are in, you’ll be able to make a definitive decision. Good luck. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Crab’s frugal aspect dominates, so while you might be reluctant to pay for technical repairs, the time you save in getting things back on track could be well worth the expense. LEO (July 23 to August 22) While you Leos and Leonas continue to concentrate on doing well in your work-related ventures this week, consider reserving the weekend for sharing good times with family and friends. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) This is a good week to take stock of the important personal, professional or familial relationships in your life and see where you might need to do some intense shoring up. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your sense of justice makes you the likely person to help deal with a work- or family-related grievance. But you need to have any doubts about anyone’s true agenda resolved first. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) The Scorpio passion for getting things done right and on time might rankle some folks. Never mind them. Others will be impressed, and they’re the ones you want in your corner. S A G I T TA R I U S (November 22 to December 21) Finances could be a mite tight this week. And, while things will ease up soon enough, you savvy Sagittarians will want to keep a prudent eye on your expenses at this time. C A P R I C O R N (December 22 to January 19) Although a technical

malfunction could cause a temporary delay in getting things up and running, you could use the time to recheck your operation and make changes where necessary. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) You might find it difficult to resist making a snap judgment about a colleague’s behavior. But stick with your usual way of assessing situations and wait for the facts to come out. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Asking

Report from the Legislature 2010-2011 BUDGET: BALANCED, FORWARD-LOOKING, RESPONSIBLE Our government announced its third consecutive balanced budget today, which was achieved through a combination of reduced spending, caution on revenue projections and a commitment to living within our means. • Spending has been reduced by 1.2 per cent, or $123 million. • Revenue is forecast at $9.95 billion, with cautious resource revenue projections of $1.1 billion for oil and $221 million from potash. • The budget also includes $194 million from the Growth and Financial Security Fund, leaving a balance of $510 million in the provincial savings account. • These measures result in a General Revenue Fund surplus of $20 million. • Spending is down in 14 different ministries. • We will pay less for debt servicing; due to the fact our government has reduced the provincial debt by $2.6 billion, or approximately 40 per cent, since 2007. • We have set a goal of reducing the size of the public service by 15 per cent over the next four years, mainly by not replacing people who retire or move on to other opportunities. • What school divisions can collect in education property taxes will be maintained at 2009-2010 levels (i.e. while school taxes won’t go down this year, they also won’t go up). We still intend to make further reductions by the end of our Àrst term. • The only tax increases are on tobacco – an increase of 2.7 cents per cigarette. The tax-free allowance on tobacco for First Nations is also being reduced, from three cartons a week to one carton. • Liquor prices will also go up by an average 50 cents for a 750 ml bottle of spirits and 75 cents for one dozen bottled beer. • Municipal revenue sharing will be maintained at last year’s historic 43 per cent increase or $167.4 million. Our government remains committed to increasing that amount to the equivalent of 100% of one point of the PST by the end of our Àrst term. Highlights include: • $385.5 million for Agriculture, approximately three-quarters of which will go to fully-funding programs such as Agri-Stability, AgriInvest and Crop Insurance. • No programs or services for producers are being cut. • An increase of $33 million in funding for school divisions, including a $17.2 million investment to build and improve schools, more child care spaces and 18 new pre-kindergarten programs. • A $4.2 billion health budget, which includes funding to address surgical wait times, doctor recruitment and training, improve cancer treatment and $2.5 million in new funding for autism services. • $551 million to build, operate and maintain highways, including 470 kilometres of rural highways, 600 km of resurfacing and $36 million to repair or replace bridges and culverts. • A new program called “Headstart on a Home,” which will help eligible lower-to-moderate income families realize their dreams of owning a home, as our government continues to make a signiÀcant investment in addressing the issues of affordable housing and child and family services. Our government has presented a balanced, forward-looking and responsible budget to the people of Saskatchewan. The path we have chosen is not the easy path, but it is the path that will keep our province’s economic momentum going. It is the right path for the new Saskatchewan - the growing, optimistic, self-assured Saskatchewan. We are looking to the future with conÀdence and hope. As we move forward into 2010, we will work hard to ensure that our best days are still ahead. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call either myself or Rosalie at the ofÀce at 634-7311.

Did you know home tip From Hilary Farr, designer and host of W Network’s Love It or List It (NC)—Use a favourite household staple to rejuvenate parts of your spring wardrobe. Vim Cream can bring white leather running shoes back to their original shade or can help restore discoloured costume or silver jewelry when polished with a soft cloth.

For Spring!

(NC)—Gathering around a table to share food is an important ritual as old as civilization itself. In fact, studies have repeatedly shown that family meals help anchor a family and that children of families that eat together regularly are less likely to encounter difficulties later on. To help ensure warm, welcoming and on-trend settings for these age-old gatherings, experts at Canadian window fashions leader Hunter Douglas, offer the following tips: • Wood: Use protective finishes that make your dining table spill-proof and durable against everyday wear and tear, as well as unforeseen accidents. Be sure to finish wooden chairs and other wooden accessories such as hutches or dressers throughout the room as well. Drape a decorative runner across the table between meals for a chic cover. • Rugs: Place a dark-coloured area rug under the table so that spills will not stand out. Patterns tend to camouflage stains better than solid rugs, though be careful not to select a pattern that is too busy for the room’s décor. • Chairs: Use upholstery fabrics such as cotton blend and wool that are relatively easy to spot-clean and are typically resistant to wear and fading. Particular cotton weaves such as canvas are more durable than others. • Windows: The last thing you want is the setting sun, particularly harsh in the summer hours, emitting a distracting glare while carrying on a conversation at dinner. Window fashions such as Vignette Modern Roman Shades from Hunter Douglas combine the look of a fine drapery with the ease and convenience of a shade for excellent light blockage and UV protection. They are the only shades on the market with no exposed rear cords for enhanced child safety and a smooth, uniform appearance from both inside and outside of the home. • Place Settings: Last but certainly not least, matching

To make these settings more family-friendly, allow each child to make their own place card with a new nickname each month. With these tips, your dining room will be full of cheer in no time.

Tips for drips (NC)—Following winter hibernation, the itch to start cleaning and preparing for spring is hitting Canadian homeowners. This might be a good time to take a look at your sinks, faucets and showers too. Direct Energy has a few tips to catch the drips, and keep your plumbing in good working condition. Drips: Surprisingly, drippy faucets can waste up to 15 gallons of water per day. This means approximately $15 per month on your water bill. A plumbing professional can either service the issue or install a new faucet for you. Flushes: According to Environment Canada, toilet flushing accounts for 30 per cent of daily home water usage. Prevent unnecessary water-loss by testing your toilet for leaks. Drop some food colouring into the tank, if the colour seeps into the toilet bowl within 10 to 15 minutes your toilet has a leak. Showers: Save water by installing a low-flow showerhead. A ten minute shower with a conventional showerhead can use up to 42 gallons of water. Drains: Drains need a little attention too. A quick home remedy for clean drains is a monthly appointment with vinegar and baking soda. First pour the baking soda into the drain, and follow up with a cup of vinegar. More tips and plumbing information can be found online at www.directenergy.com or toll-free at 1-888334-8221.

(NC)—The “modern” of the new millennium is taking a turn from the past. “Extremist modern decorating” – with angled edges, geometric shapes and cube-inspired items has evolved. Today’s soft-modern is welcoming and easy to live in – with delicate designs, flowing lines and understated details. Up-to-date and unfussy, this new modern look is fresh and comfortable. “Soft modern decorating is really the wave of the future,” said Judy Riley, vice president of design, Moen. “It bypasses all of the fleeting trends and features a comfortable, confident look that still manages to be fresh and current. Plus, its style is truly timeless – with clean, simple lines and a spacious, uncluttered feel – the soft modern approach will look as good in ten years as it does today.” To begin integrating soft modern style cues in your home, try these tips: • Light, fresh colours form the ideal backdrop for this decorating style. • If wallpaper is preferred, choose small patterns which will blend well with the muted paint scheme. • Following the direction of the walls, flooring should be neutral, comfortable under foot and easy to maintain. • When considering lighting, make the most of natural light from windows and skylights. For accent lighting, try small pendant lights and wall-mounted lights, which can disperse light throughout the room for a soft, romantic effect. • Furniture should be relaxed and comfortable – think sectional, overstuffed couches and chairs. Another trademark look of the soft modern style is that everything doesn’t have to match – an unmatched look is completely appropriate for this welcoming decorating trend. Once you’ve initiated the overall soft modern décor style

Concrete Worx

in your home, you can choose certain rooms in which to concentrate. A good rule of thumb is to start with the rooms you use most, such as the kitchen and bathroom. • In the kitchen, the focal point should be your dining table. Any shape will coordinate well with a soft modern flair; however a solid wood table is not only beautiful; but is also easy to care for and virtually lasts forever. Another nice option fitting of this design style is a glass-topped table. • In the bathroom, concentrate on the often-used sink area. Here, it’s the faucet that should take center stage. For a clean, uncluttered look to complement a stylish sink, try the Fina™ single-handle lavatory faucet from ShowHouse®. Featuring soft modern style cues, highlights of the faucet include its high-arc, marquise-shaped spout, lever handle and contemporary-shaped base. The beautifully designed faucet also features a flow-optimized aerator for water savings. To add the finishing touch to your newly decorated home, place carefully selected accessories in each room. Keep things relaxed, simple and comfortable – and you’ll enjoy the soft modern style today and for years to come. For more information on the Fina lavatory faucet from ShowHouse, visit moen.ca or call (800) 465-6130.

Add a spike of red for garden contrast (NC)—The Red Star Spike plant, with its rich colour and grand foliage, is a gardener’s favourite. In garden beds or containers, the dark red leaves that never fade create a focal point or backdrop for bright flowers. Red Star Spike can also create colour variations when planted with other green plants. In addition, the palm-like leaves produce an ornamental contrast for softer shaped flowers. This plant is easy to care for, responds in full sun or shady light, and grows to a height of 24” to 36”. Because of its hardiness and colour, it has become a preferred alternative to the traditional dracaena spike. You can find the nearest retailer or garden centre in your region selling this and additional plant ideas are online at www.fernlea.com. This gardening site also offers tips on how to care for a Red Star Spike, and pictures to suggest what you might plant with it.

(NC)—While the purchase of smaller homes is becoming more popular, large-scale master bedrooms continue to remain on-trend, as they offer an escape from the real world. Sue Rainville, director of marketing for Hunter Douglas, Canada’s leading manufacturer of custom window fashions, provides the following tips on how to create the perfect retreat in your bedroom: Atmosphere: Leave the world outside and the items that remind you of it. The master bedroom should be tidy and clutter-free, offering a place to de-stress and find solace. Replace cell phones and computers better suited for a home office with candles and photos of loved ones. Furniture: Keeping with the streamlined look, furnish the room with essential ele-

ments only. An oversized bed with lots of pillows offers a comfortable escape and focal point. Additional furnishings such as “his and hers” bedside tables provide a place for personal items and an armoire can host a television, decorative books and photographs. Window Treatments: The right window treatments can soften harsh light and provide privacy for a restful environment and maybe even a touch of romance. Products such as Silhouette window shadings from Hunter Douglas diffuse light through two fabric layers for a warm glow and calming effect. The shadings’ rotating fabric vanes have the added benefit of allowing one to direct that light to where it is needed most and close for privacy and light control.

Decorative Accents: Brighter, airy colours such as yellows and warm blues invoke a sense of warmth and happiness. Using a fresh coat of paint in these colours can dramatically alter the look of a room. Add an inspirational element using paintings from places around the world where you have traveled or hope to. Bath: Luxury still resonates with the master bath.

Energy saving tip:

0 1 0

(NC)–Keep your heat or air conditioning from escaping by making sure you have a tight seal on your windows and doors. According to Natural Resources Canada, air leakage is a significant contributor to high energy costs during the heating and the cooling seasons. Use caulking and weather-stripping to make sure your house is airtight - saving you energy and money.

Vintage Lunchbox Q: I have a Green Hornet lunchbox that I originally used when I was in school during the 1960s. I have almost discarded it several times, but think it might have some value. It is in excellent condition and is complete with its thermos. It was manufactured by King Seeley and Company. -- Roger, Arkadelphia, Ark. A: Vintage lunchboxes have become quite collectible in recent years. According to Kovels’ Antiques and Collectibles Price Guide, your Green Hornet lunchbox was distributed during the late 1960s and is valued at $285. *** Q: I have four Jim Beam bottles and wonder if I should hold on to them.

For example,in1955,thecompany issued the Regal China series, the following year political figures and an elephant and donkey were featured, and a series honoring American states began in 1958 to commemorate the admission of Alaska and Hawaii into the Union. Although you didn’t tell me which Beam bottles you have, a collector told me that most are worth less than $10 each. There are, of course, exceptions. Some of the heavy hitters include Don Giovanni, $140-$180 (1980); First National Bank of Chicago, $1,900-$2,400 (1964); Foremost-Speckled Beauty, $500-$600 (1956); and Fox, Red Distillery,
