Weather Day

[IL Rancher]

They talked about how the campells soup guy used to come by and pick up spent laying hens from the school's hen house... It was only a passing mention... They were talking about firing up the meats program again while I was there... I saw all the old meat equipment they had.. It was on a ranch South and west of Town, going back towards upper cottonwood creek... Had a friend who worked for the people out there, went hunting once.. I think it was Clayton who was talking about it.... Might have been Bok Sowell's predecessor (He did a guest lecture for us one day)

They are always complaining about The university Farm down in Champaign too... I think they moved where the cows were because the odor was bothering the people who went to the football games... I simply don't understand these schools in states that rely so much on agriculture just ignoring the tates heritage... Drives me a bit nuts. I guess it boils down to supply and demand but I also thought the land grant U's had other guidance than just that.
