Hiroko,
You can improve the levelness a great deal by using a good disc harrow and go across the ridges and furrows. When you're through, attach a drag behind the disc harrow and go in the...

Coachgrd,
My mother would sit a glass jar up-side-down by each plant if she did not have too many plants to defend. It worked pretty well.

Mike,
A few yrs. back I put Monroe Sensatrac on a K1500 and was well satisfied.

Bgott,
Thanks for your input.

Pat,
It was the lift pump. The tech said that the older lift pumps were lubed by crankcase oil. My 2000 is lubricated by the fuel passing thru. Matter of fact, he said that about 70% of the fuel...

Dave,
Good post. I wish you luck. I enjoy it and I'm sure you will. Boys never get too old to enjoy playing in the dirt!

Thank you for the posts. Alexander Chrysler/Dodge came through for me. The bill for the repairs was $840. They got all but $245 covered for me. Bet I won't let my fuel ga. fall under 1/2 from...

Hi Folks,
I need to vent a little and hear some comments on my situation. My 2000 Dodge 2500 with Cummins left me and my livestock trailer stranded Sun. afternoon. Thankfully the cattle had...

An electric fence has been quite effective at keeping deer out of my garden. You can't keep an electric fence from being torn down by deer that run upon it suddenly. However if you will flag it...

Pat,
I would appreciate it if you would not make me face reality so vividly. /forums/images/icons/grin.gif I know how I'm doing financially in my operation. When I retired after 43 yrs. in...

Pat,
I know what you. Reminds me of the farmer who won $1million in the lottery. When asked what he was going to do with it he replied, "keep farming as long as it lasts."

Dave,
I keep about 25-30 brood cows and run a small cow calf operation. The price/wt. thing is a moving target. Some times there is a need for heavy calves, sometimes a specific need for lighter...

Dick,
Have you considered that the problem could be with the bull. How long has it been since she calved? Not that uncommon for a cow not to conceive on first service if serviced too soon after...

<font color="blue"> what do you mean by "girdle the tree"?
</font color>
Icando, It was suggested by another poster that you can notch the tree and apply Remedy herbicide. My point is if you...

phxraptor,
Don't need anything but the ax if you girdle the tree. Be sure to take material out through the cambium layer under the bark. This is the material through which nutrients are...

Doc,
To this point, I think the U.S. has acted responsibly and I...

Come on Doc! You know more about...

Rockinmywaypa,
Thanks for relating about your friend. They are truly amazing dogs. So intelligent. Someone said if you get a Border you best find things for them to do. If you don't they'll...

Hondo, in my last post I responded as if your friend was an Australian Shepherd. You stated it was an Australian Cattledog. Sorry about that. Both those breeds are on my list along with Border...

<font color="blue"> he crouches and stares intently </font color>

Hondo,

That stare is probably the best weapon that stock dogs have. It's referred to as "eye". They intimidate what ever...

Johnday,

Sounds as if you and Spike have a win/win arrangement. That's a great matchup. There seems to be a great deal of variability in Borders' dispositions. Lady in some cases is timid. ...

I never did attempt to get Lady going on the frisbee. If the grandsons lived closer I'm sure they would have. So far the coated aspirins have worked quite well for Lady.

Lady is hardwired,...

<font color="blue"> and? </font color>

Johnday,

Beautiful dog, Borders are a remarkable breed. Did the "and" ending your post mean his father was a "smooth talking traveling salesman"?...

Mark,
Lady, with the help of 4 interic .81mg aspirins each morning is still quite active. She is amazing, helps me with the cows, helps mow 2.5 acres of lawn. When I am clipping my pastures with...
