Rains help but laRge poRtions of local cRops

still playing catchup significant rainfall has alleviated

some concern about the viability of crops this summer in southeast alberta and southwest saskatchewan, new crop reports from both provinces state.

however, a large portion of crops remain in poor to good condition and at or behind the normal growth stage.

southern alberta received heavy but relatively isolated showers in the reporting period that ended on July 2, but “moisture is still needed to sup-port the area’s overall crop health,” according to the alberta crop report.

for the most part, conditions improved after a dry June.

in Region one, covering Medicine hat, lethbridge, foremost and strathmore, pasture growth improved a little though a first cut of hay is well underway, and considered generally fair to good.

subsurface moisture on cropland is reported as three-quarters “fair” to “good.” only about two thirds of most major crops are considered in good to excellent condition, well below the 10-year average rating, with the cur-rent figure for durum and winter wheat sitting below half.

in southwest saskatchewan, soil moisture across the region is now rated at 86 per cent adequate – the same amount of area rated as short to very short in late June.

in terms of crop progression, two thirds of fall cereals and pulse crops are considered at normal stages, compared to half of spring cereals and oilseed plantings.

amounts of rain in the area closest to alberta ranged from 19 millimetres (0.8 inches) in leader to 81 mm in Webb.

FROM KING FEATURES SYNDICATE, 300 W 57th STREET, 41st FLOOR, NEW YORK, NY 10019 CUSTOMER SERVICE: (800) 708-7311 EXT. 236YOUR INDIVIDUAL HOROSCOPEFOR RELEASE MONDAY, JULY 8, 2019BY FRANCIS DRAKE

What kind of day will tomorrow be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign.

For Tuesday, July 9, 2019ARIES(March 21 to April 19)Don’t be discouraged by family today,

especially a parent or an authority figure in the family. You feel blocked, but this is only temporary.

TAURUS(April 20 to May 20)Your ability to communicate to others,

especially daily contacts, is difficult today. You might feel cut off from others or misunderstood. Don’t worry, because this is short-lived.

GEMINI(May 21 to June 20)Obstacles exist today regarding earn-

ing money or dealing with finances. Do not feel overwhelmed. These obstacles will fade away.

CANCER(June 21 to July 22)It’s difficult to talk to close friends and

partners today because you feel a chasm between you. Don’t focus on this. There is always a chasm between people, ulti-mately.

LEO(July 23 to Aug. 22)Today you might feel lonely and cut

off from others. You are not alone. Ironically, many people feel this way. Soldier on, because this feeling will fade.

VIRGO(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)Your efforts to do something with a

group or a friend are blocked today. Whatever blocks you might even be your own responsibilities in another area of your life. It is what it is.

LIBRA(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)Today it’s tough dealing with bosses,

parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. Things seem to be at an impasse. But this will change. Courage.

SCORPIO(Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)Travel plans or something to do with

politics, religion or higher education will be met with difficulties today. Something or someone will block you. Don’t be overwhelmed. Patience.

SAGITTARIUS(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)This is a poor day for financial matters

or working with wills, estates or shared property. Whatever you attempt to do will be sidetracked. Postpone for another day.

CAPRICORN(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)It’s easy to feel cut off from others

today, which can make you feel isolated and lonely. Many people feel this way today. It’s the vibes. Cope as best you can.

AQUARIUS(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)If difficulties arise at work today or

related to your health or a pet, don’t be overwhelmed by what you face. Get it in perspective, because in a few days, things will look different.

PISCES(Feb. 19 to March 20)Romance, vacations, sports events and

your activities with children will create difficulties for you today. Things will not go as you had hoped. Be patient, because eventually all will be resolved.

YOU BORN TODAY You are ambitious and talented. You

are open-minded; you are also decisive. People think you’re charming and socia-ble. Now is the time to clarify future goals because you are entering a year of exciting changes and new beginnings! Start to define what you want for yourself in the next several years. Be proactive! This year you will feel physically ener-getic.

A nurse, who has done a lot of research about

dieting, had given information about

the various popular diets including Atkins,

Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, and the South Beach Diet.

She then mentioned a diet about which we haven’t heard

previously, but which she insists works for

almost everyone:The Dawn Keye DietTo Lose Weight, Keep

your Ass out of the Refridgerator.

A very dirty little fellow came in from playing in the yard and asked his mother, “Who am I?”

Ready to play the game she said, “I don’t know! Who are you?”

“WOW!” cried the child. “Mrs. Johnson was right! She said I was so dirty, my own mother

wouldn’t recognize me!”

Thai PeanuT ChiCken

2 cups uncooked white rice 4 cups water 3 tablespoons soy sauce 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 3 tablespoons olive oil 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into thin strips 3 tablespoons chopped garlic 1 1/2 TBSP chopped fresh ginger root 3/4 cup chopped green onions 2 1/2 cups broccoli florets 1/3 cup unsalted dry-roasted peanuts Combine the rice and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until rice is tender. In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, and cayenne pepper. Set aside. Heat oil in a skillet or wok over high heat. Add chicken, garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring constantly, until chicken is golden on the outside, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, and add green onion, broccoli, peanuts, and the peanut butter mixture. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, or until broccoli is tender, and chicken is cooked through. Serve over rice.

Guess Who?
