Bell Ranch, An uncertain future

You folks are going around in circles about who is gonna buy it and who should have it and so on . Well there has already been an offer made and i am sure will soon be sold . Not to Ted Turner not to the LDS church or any other big name outfit .

How ever it is very over priced and not very well managed for how big of a place that it is and thats why they have been running long time employees off . The wagon boss was just fired a month or so ago for insubordination and Mr. Bert Ancell is next on the list so we hear .

It is a Texas man who walked in the office and sat a check down on the desk who knows if they will take the offer , its the only offer they have had since its been for sale for over a year now . If it sells to the Texas gent i am sure the employees that are there now will soon be run off and he will move his men he has in other states there to take over .

Simplot even looking for more grass , afer thier fight with BlM and western watersheds in Nevada , but like the Deseret they would pay the listed price.... Bet the Check the Texan offered wasn't full price and it taken we probally never know.

The thing is...The lands For Sale,if you want it BUY it if you don't or can't what is all the whining in the world going to do about it :???:

We have the same thing with Hutterites in our area,land goes up For Sale they buy it then the locals whine and complain about it.The chance was just as open to the locals as the Hoots. Funny thing is though when its time for some of the local whiners to sell guess who they sell to??

I love seeing young upcoming ranchers in our area...like Pure Country but one has to be pro-active...buy the land :!: :!:

How do cows ever pay for 300-350 an acrea land? Times are so much different for the young rancher then even from say 30 years ago. 20 years ago land was apraised from $99 dollars an acrea.

I don't think it's whining I think it's concern when you see land around you being bought up like crazy by on source that no one can stand up to. Have some tried yes. Were they successful no. I guess one can never understand it until they see the impact it is having on the community. No one can understand it until they are followed on a county road by his help. No one can understand it until you've been right in it.

I will say I try hard to say Turners management because I highly doubt Ted has a clue what is going on. However, he should be accountable in some way he's the one who but these in their job. I just don't think he has a clue what goes on.
When we bought our land 30 years ago we paid $400 a acre for it,its now going for around $1000,generalising like some young people like to do about land wasn't worth what it is now is silly its all relevant.

I find it funny how your tolerances change when they affect you :???:


Don't we all develop stonger opinions on issues the closer they effect us?


If one was to part-time ranch and have less then say 3000 acreas and have jobs in town then quite possibly one could make the numbers work on paper. However, when you want to do it as a job in this country it takes at least 3000 to make a descent living. The day of the 100 cow rancher is a thing of the past with the high cost of insurance, fuel, and just everyday items like milk. Now before anyone gets upset keep in mind I'm talking about just ranching with no supplimental income.
