    hillsboro aluminum trailer

    Has anybody on here pulled or worked with a Hillsboro aluminum stock trailer? I went back through some of the posts and I think every other brand of trailer was mentioned but not Hillsboro. I have a 92 steel Hillsboro that is the best trailer I have pulled and while it still pulls great it is...

    Deflate-gate

    What do you guys think about the Patriots getting caught cheating again? I think that Belichik should be banned for a year and Brady should be suspended at least half a season. Something along the lines of what happened to the Saints. Makes you wonder how long they have been doing this...

    Cactus

    Does anybody have a good remedy for getting rid of prickly pear? Is there a herbicide that works on it? In Montana I farmed it under or flooded it out with irrigation but neither is an option here. I have been digging it out but parts of the pasture it is so thick I can't walk through it and my...

    To my friends on Ranchers

    spent the last few days packing and moving everything into storage. The old place sure looks empty with the cows and equipment gone and now the house does too with all the furniture gone. Saturday is the last day at home. I am working on getting my cdl and then it looks like I am off to the oil...

    In 33 days after 33 years this place is no longer home

    The final word came down the first week of november that there was no chance of renewing the lease. I think I would feel better about losing this place had I made poor business decisions or just plain screwed up. The owners put their 50 year old son (who didn't have a business or even a job that...

    Just a few random thoughts

    I was just sitting here enjoying a few quiet moments while waiting for the crew to arrive. Susie is saddled and munching on oats in the barn, I think she would sell her soul for a bucket of oats and maybe she already has. The dark had a really soft feel to it this morning as there isn't a breath...

A few I really like are Leave him in the big yard, Battle with the Roan, A word to Texas Jack, Walk a country mile and A pub with no beer {even though I like the Irish Rovers rendition of...

    How did your bulls test?

    After one of the coldest winters we've had in a long time I lost fifteen of twenty nine bulls. They were either good or really bad, 45% was the best motility on the bad bulls. Was wondering if the cold weather had affected anyone elses bull power.

    forage kochia ( kochia prostrata)

    I have been looking for a type of grass or other type of plant that would withstand the heat and wind and improve grazing conditions later through the summer. Here my grass is usually shot by mid July and the cows really hit the native grass hard. Anyway I ran across an article on forage kochia...

    When do you cut new seeding alfalfa-oat hay

    I have always cut new seeding alfalfa- oats when the oats start to turn and there are a few blooms in the alfalfa plants. I have not had any problems with nitrates doing this so far.
