    The Reason The South Seceded

    As a kid, I was growing up in an era of celebration of the Civil War centennial, with a lot of 'Lost Cause' emphasis on the Confederacy. I used to play Civil War soldiers with my brothers as a child, and my older brother always insisted that he got to be Lee, and I got be Grant. I never knew...

    The Reason The South Seceded

    Got a real winner here Mike. The equivalent of Lenin defending communism. You should fit right in one of his classes.

    Twins

    A pretty good read on affect of nutrition on pregnancy rates, incidence of multiple births etc. Protein, Energy, Vitamins and Minerals are all extremely important. Not the high incidence of twins in dairy cattle with their extremely nutrient dense diets compared to beef breeds...

    Shalom !

    St Paul said to listen to the Church, the pillar and foundation of truth. Christians did not even have a Canon of NT scripture for almost 400 years after its creation, thus they listened to the teaching of the church which had been taught by the apostles and their successors. 2 Thessalonians...

    Shalom !

    What is wrong with building a church?? A place of worship of the Christ?? These churches have kept Christianity alive in a world that hates Christians. Where did Christ say to not build churches?? But I know you're looking at it from a protestant point of view. Did they point out to you that...

    Prisoner Exchange

    By the winter of 1863-64 the Confederacy was near the last of its resources and manpower. Knowing this, Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant refused to continue the prisoner-exchange agreement that had been in operation during most of the war. This action cut down on the number of Confederate soldiers...

    Prisoner Exchange

    Myth: Grant Stopped the Prisoner Exchange "It is hard on our men held in Southern prisons not to exchange them, but it is humanity to those left in the ranks to fight our battles. Every man we hold, when released on parole or otherwise, becomes an active soldier against us at once either...

    High moisture barley

    I'm sure you're going to have to make sure the bags will be sealed air tight to cut off any additional oxygen otherwise it will all mold and spoil.

    It was a good day

    Yessir they are chelates as are metal amino acid chelates and proteinates...Most research will usually be done with feedlot operations because it is easier to monitor and control them compared to pastured cow/calf operation. Ran a small scale test of my on with my dairy cattle a few years ago...

    It was a good day

    Let me give you a challenge. Find me a study or a presentation where those promoting hydroxy trace minerals or discussing research with hydroxy trace minerals ever compare them to amino acid complexes. You're going to find that comparisons are always made to sulfates, not organic minerals really...

    It was a good day

    They sell mineral with chelates but do not really promote it as seen my her reply. Not trying to cause a disagreement but simply pointing out that you can have the best of both worlds. Better mineral, better performance, miniscule difference in cost.

    It was a good day

    You may save a small amount of money (very small) but in the long run tests have already shown the amino acid complexes are the higher quality product. The hydroxy trace minerals seem to want to promote themselves as being better than sulfates which they are.

    It was a good day

    I'm going to jump in and disagree with you FH. I realize you sell mineral so you're always going to be partial to and promote your own but the two "sources" of mineral you mention are as old as dirt literally. Oxides are little more than minute rocks, 90% of which pass through the cow and end...

    Clothing made in the USA

    American made getting harder and harder to find for anything. There is a cap company up in the Dallas area as well as a hat company but am not aware of any small companies making things like jeans, shirts, coats etc.

    Range cubes

    Hard to find ear corn around here as most is machine picked and stored. I remember as a kid hand picking corn (hated my dad for it) adn then hauling a pickup truck load to the feed mill to be ground, have protein and more roughage added to it along with molasses and hauling it home. Fed it to...

    Range cubes

    Forgot about the distance factor but for most folks corn is the cheapest and easiest obtained source of energy usually contained in a good heavy commercial feed. Very little DDG fed down this way for beef cattle and if used primarily a protein source in a TMR.

    Range cubes

    Most of my experience has been with dairies and we often fed much more than recommended (as much as 7-8 lbs. per head per day). Three to four pounds should be more than enough for good beef cattle along with the hay.
