Glenavon Saskatchewan Information

Glenavon (2016 population: 182) is a village in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan within the Rural Municipality of Chester No. 125 and Census Division No. 5. Glenavon incorporated as a village on April 13, 1910.[6] In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Glenavon had a population of 179 living in 97 of its 110 total private dwellings, a change of -1.6% from its 2016 population of 182. With a land area of 1.29 km2 (0.50 sq mi), it had a population density of 138.8/km2 (359.4/sq mi) in 2021.[9] In the 2016 Census of Population, the Village of Glenavon recorded a population of 182 living in 108 of its 121 total private dwellings, a 3.3% change from its 2011 population of 176. With a land area of 1.32 km2 (0.51 sq mi), it had a population density of 137.9/km2 (357.1/sq mi) in 2016.[10] On May 5, 1950, 23-year old Polish émigrée Anna Juswiak boarded a train in Regina bound for Glenavon, where she was to meet friends of her fiancé, Stanley Kisilowski.[11] On May 6, Juswiak’s body was discovered in the backyard of a Glenavon home, “her head battered by a blunt instrument.”[12] Subsequently, Royal Canadian Mounted Police interviewed a man registered as “Leo Beaudry” from Portage La Prairie at a hotel in Kipling, identifying him as 25-year old John Woltucky, an ex-military and ex-convict using an alias, who had been released from penitentiary in Prince Albert on April 17, 1950.[12] Woltucky was previously serving out a three-year sentence for illegal possession of a firearm, five charges of housebreaking, and theft of a parka.[13] Police were initially “convinced that Woltucky did not answer to the description of the man they were looking for,” but, with additional information from authorities in Glenavon, picked up Woltucky at the train station minutes before he was to board an outbound train.[12] Among his personal effects, police discovered a bank book belonging to Ms. Juswiak.[11] Two women from Kipling, Saskatchewan, Mrs. Lars Pearson and Mrs. Alf Johnston, identified Woltucky as having disembarked the train in Glenavon accompanying Juswiak.[12] The trial of John Woltucky proved sensational for the small town of Glenavon, where, “nothing like it had ever happened before in the peaceful community.”[14] In multiple newspapers, the murder of Anna Juswiak was initially reported as a shooting.[15][16] During the trial, Glenavon’s population of roughly 250 was “augmented by some 200 non-residents.”[12] According to Regina Leader-Post reporter Robert Tyre, “the murder itself was overshadowed by the antics of the villagers who deserted home, business, and family en masse to prowl and poke about the scene of the crime like an army of Scotland Yard detectives gravely and earnestly searching for clues.”[14] Woltucky was convicted and found guilty twice, both times sentenced to the death penalty.[11] During his detainment, he underwent psychological testing at Weyburn’s Souris Valley Mental Health Hospital, from which he escaped on July 2, 1951 and was later re-apprehended.[17] 50°10?52?N 103°07?55?W? / ?50.181°N 103.132°W? / 50.181; -103.132 This article about a location in the Census Division No. 5 of Saskatchewan is a stub.

Topsoil Depth (in) Alberta Source aafc slc version 3.2

topsoil Depth (in) Alberta Source aafc slc version 3.2

Understanding Topsoil Depth in Alberta: Insights from AAFC SLC Version 3.2 Data

Topsoil depth is a critical factor for agricultural productivity, influencing water retention, nutrient availability, and root growth. The provided map of Alberta illustrates the topsoil depth in inches, highlighting significant regional variations. This analysis is based on data from the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) Version 3.2.

Key Observations

The topsoil depth in Western Alberta and the Rockies is generally shallow, ranging from 0 to 6 inches. This is due to the rugged terrain and erosional processes associated with mountainous regions. The shallow topsoil in these areas supports forests and natural vegetation rather than extensive agriculture.

Central Alberta, including areas around Edmonton and Red Deer, exhibits moderate to deep topsoil depths, generally between 8 to 14 inches. These depths are conducive to productive agriculture, supporting a variety of crops. The deeper topsoil in central regions contributes to higher agricultural yields and sustainable farming practices.

In Southern and Eastern Alberta, regions such as Calgary and areas towards the Saskatchewan border show variable topsoil depths ranging from 6 to 10 inches. While suitable for agriculture, these areas may require careful soil management to maintain productivity. Areas with shallower topsoil are more drought-resistant and may need irrigation and soil conservation practices.

Regional Analysis

The Rocky Mountain Influence is evident in the shallow topsoil of the Rocky Mountain foothills, resulting from the rocky and rugged terrain, limiting soil accumulation. These areas are more suited to forest growth and natural vegetation rather than intensive agriculture.

In contrast, the Prairie Conditions in central Alberta benefit from moderate to deep topsoil, which is ideal for crop production and supports Alberta’s agricultural economy. Maintaining topsoil depth through conservation practices is essential for sustaining long-term agrarian productivity in these areas.

Implications for Agriculture

Understanding topsoil depth is crucial for effective soil management practices, including crop selection, irrigation, and fertilization. Farmers can use this data to optimize their farming practices, choosing crops suited to the available topsoil depth and implementing appropriate soil conservation measures. Deeper topsoil improves water retention and nutrient availability, which is essential for healthy crop growth and high yields.

Conclusion

The topsoil depth map of Alberta reveals significant regional variations influenced by geographical features such as the Rocky Mountains and the fertile plains of central Alberta. Understanding these variations is crucial for optimizing agricultural practices and ensuring sustainable farming. By leveraging this data, farmers can improve crop yields, manage soil health, and enhance overall agrarian productivity in Alberta.
