    Nature Conservancy buys land on Milk River Mt.

    I fear that these easements may, and often do, work well for the generation that sells them, but that future generations may well find that the government will control their permitted management practices, numbers, type of livestock, what land may not be grazed, etc. It may be a land grab in...

    Fence Cleaner

    I have one that I like. I bought it from Rustler's at Rocky Ford, Co. After refering a few guys there, I found that their supplier had passed away. They, too, had found the $25,900 on in ND> Try a brush hog on a tractor, and drive as close as possible to your fence. It will likely get...

    Custom Haying

    That work close to home is the difference between working at home on a rain out or sitting in a camper waiting to get back to work. I would still be stacking if I hadn't been so far from my jobs. Good advice.

    Fencing for my Folks

    Family is the big word in family ranch. Your post reminds us all of that. I'll bet that ol' boy with the spenders had the time of his life today, and you were there to share it. Those little ropers are getting a piece of something pretty special too, and you've shared in that. The nice thing...

    pasture fees 2012

    I need 40 to 50 acres to keep a cow. I can have lots of country, but no grass. Why do you think I'm "shortgrass?" Sometimes I really should be "NOgrass!"

    pasture fees 2012

    I'm SE Co, and $4.00 has worked, but got a call that it is going to $5.00 in 2012. He has quite a bit of windmill expense on just 1/2 section. I furnish labor and he furnishes 1/2 material on fence as it borders mine.

    The price of hay

    I have heard 175+ for grinder hay. I guess we are too close to Texas. Any decent hay is on a truck headed south by the time I find it.

    Wild land fires

    It was foggy if that counts! :) Fog does reduce the fire danger, but would sure welcome some ground moisture.

    Wild land fires

    I guess its that La Nina effect. I'm hearing the same thing about it holding for the next few months at least. :cry: :cry: :cry: I'm tired of drought, but not sure I'm ready for the kind of floods some are having. I guess I'd gritch if it was too wet, too cold, too dry, too hot, or just...

    Wild land fires

    We have been in a red flag fire warning for several days, and no relief in sight. Yesterday, near Karval, Co about 25 miles away, they had a bad one that our dept went on. The news said it burned about 8 square miles. Lincoln County estimated about 20,000 acres (thats about 30 sections). It...

    Feeding hay with horses on the Y6, 1-22-11, Part One

    Once, I was scooping out the barn onto a hay sled like the one pictured. I had a D4 hook on it. When I tried to pull out, the crawler spun its tracks, and I was sitting on her belly. Johhny had a 6 horses abreast hooked up. He hooked on the back of the sled, and pulled the whole outfit out...

    Feeding hay with horses on the Y6, 1-22-11, Part One

    Great post! Brings back memories. McMurtrey and Ravenscroft's used to feed that way, along with several others in the late 60's when I was with Hub. That was a long time ago. I have a collar with a mirror in it hanging on the back porch that I used on "Dutch".
