    More April 2014 photographs

    Must be some whiteface in the background of that black cow, as I have been told that they are the only ones that prolapse. :wink:

    Anybody?

    I used it for a few years, but not last year. Paid for it. Going back to it this year.

    Who?

    I look at it similar to the fact that just because a car can go double the speed limit, doesn't mean it's perfectly safe to drive that fast.

    Who has Windows XP?

    If your not using it for internet, there is no reason you would need to switch to anything else. But the security loopholes in XP will grow larger and larger without continual patches to fix them in updates, which equals problems for those connected to the rest of the world. I am surprised...

    It's a boy

    Now here I thought that was going to read, 'Bout 2 years ago, our youngest son brought an unwanted girl home.' Guess I jumped the gun a bit.

    Scaling babies

    I have given it some thought and I am thinking a digital bathroom scale and a laundry basket/storage tub would work best. Toss calf into laundry basket and lay on top of scale. Digital scale would give a quick read.

    Beef: It's What You Can't Afford For Dinner

    That's why I don't get all caught up in these 'causes' everybody seems to want help with nowadays. Seems to me there is plenty of money and extra hands that can be found if priorities were set straight. When I look back on my school days, I think how much a school year could be shortened if it...

    Beef: It's What You Can't Afford For Dinner

    I always use the Olympics as a meter of how the world is doing. As long as all these countries can afford to put this show together, things are going A-Ok. When they can't afford to do it anymore, then, we might start coming down to reality of day-to-day life.

    Beef: It's What You Can't Afford For Dinner

    When Mcdonalds and the like top selling item is 'the Big Porker' or the 'McChicken' sandwich, I'll get worried. People love red meat and convenience.

    Vets

    I might do that if I did not want the locals to know I had some bad culls!!!! I know a purebred guy that will ask his past customers to ship their bull to a mart a couple hundred miles away, if the bull is having 'personality issues'. He doesn't want to labeled locally as having 'those...

    Too much ear and not much tail either.

    Strap on a pair of skates and you'll be fine.

    Driving in the snow

    If you get snow tires, make sure that you get them studded as well.

    Wanted: 2001-2004 Dodge pickup 4x4

    I would support him 100%. Diesel, if in good shape, and he needs some work, can be put to work hauling gooseneck loads. Manual transmission. Is an asset to have, even though the future looks bleak for them existing in 10-15 years. Compared to an auto, they're cheap to service and repair in...

    Birdsfoot trefoil

    It's the mainstay of all our pastures and fields. It likes moisture and lots of it. I know visitors here from drier areas of the prairies are astonished at what it can do here. To dry and it won't amount to much. It can handle competition fine. You can broadcast in the spring or after you...

    Financing Equipment

    Ditto. The big banks don't want anything to do with Ag. To even get them interested, you would probably need 50% down. Why lend to ag when CMHC insures homes and takes away the risk. Farm Credit is scary with how loose they are with money. A lot of farms here would not be in existence...

    Hauling Water!

    Old 250 gallon and 500 gallon fuel tanks chained to a big wagon and hauled with the tractor. I had 750 gallons capacity with the ability to add two more tanks for a total of 1250. At least then your making good use of your travel time.

    I like my B&W. Mumby was almost twice the price for a very similar product.

    Fences

    BC, do you have any names of cases I could look up? I'd like to read the judge's reasoning.
