    Coming to a state near you.

    Tam, I can pick someone I trust to sit at the table if need be! But you sure can't pick 50% of those that are at the table, and you don't always know their true agenda's, Good for you if your elected officials have always supported your views, but mine not so much. Good luck 101

    Coming to a state near you.

    Tam I agree with what your saying ( IF ) one is talking with people that want to work for the good of every one involved, BUT if you think the people in this administration don't have an agenda, your mistaken, and it is not in your best interest. Good luck 101

    When to give C&D shot to new borns?

    This forum has been really interesting!! Back in the 50"s working at home we never had overeating in our calves, makes one think about why now, most of our cows milk better, calves have better genetics, better nutrition today with minerals and cubes. When I was growing up I can only remember one...

I just pulled our 1970 Chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 out for a rebuild, it was the first truck Mother and had together, the things we gave up just to buy that thing, but a lot of memories there, I want to take her for a ride in it again...

    cut it or graze it?

    I have to agree with Clarencen, With the weevils, and if you are like us the early very dry spring and so so on the moisture your alfalfa is taking a pretty hard hit.
