    Oregon Standoff--High Country News

    This I don't get. It'd be a kindness to drop about 90% of these horses, both to the ranchers and the horses. (and--truth be told---also to the blm) A few yrs ago, you could buy a new, chrome barrel'd sks for about 100 bucks. Theres dozens of them things around here and many buyers bought ammo...

    Do most ranchers still brand their cattle or only use ear tags?

    " I'm to small to be a rancher" Bullsh*t!! You're a hell of a lot more rancher than some guys I know of with hundreds of cows. And another difference: You---I respect.

    Is The Oregon Standoff About Uranium?

    I think we sold uranium one about 4000 claims. a lode claim is 1500 x 600 feet, so about 22 acres. time you get it filed and first yrs 'assessment' paid, you'll be into it about 180$ per each. I imagine they've all lapsed. lotsa u308 in se Utah, sw colo, but about all low grade. and u.s...

    Is The Oregon Standoff About Uranium?

    Probably not. I imagine the mill is the one at blanding, it was mothballed for a long time. For rags-to-riches story, google Charlie steen and Mi Vida mine. Charlie built the only privately owned mill @ moab. Green river Utah, paradox basin, Monticello, naturita colo, delores river, dove...

    Why the downward slide?

    I wasn't trying to present an argument. But ok, let's be fair. Let's impose a 'tariff ' on any product that says 'made in' 'grown in' 'packaged in' 'bottled in' We can work on eliminating brand names later. You can't have it both ways.

    Why the downward slide?

    Cool? I don't want to argue about it, I see where Canada and Mejico can impose 1 Billion of tariffs. But my car part can say the box is made in u.s. the part in mejico. Every apple in the bag says where it growed. I can learn my tv came from japan, my wrench from china, my Molson's Canadian...

    " It is easy to meet their protein needs (range cows) but they are usually short on energy." Is this what you meant to say?

    handling & feeding cake

    I see that pearson's sq link I gave ain't that good. You should be able to plug in various components at various prices--then tinker till you meet all requirements and can play with amounts to get best price. extension agents used to give you a disk that'd do this.

    Didn't moorman's used to call the product with biuret "roughage buster'? I've been using bovatec in my winter mineral. If you look at marc tables, you'll probably need about 2# of protein. I have fed 30# of really nice alfalfa hay every third day on rank rough wolfy rough fescue and shined...
