    SHOW CATTLE ETHICS

    The inadvertant hijacking of the clubby bull post drove me to start a new one. While I will push everything to the edge, I will not cross the lines when it comes to care, feeding, fitting of show cattle. I realize that I know about every trick trick in the book. However, my faith tells me that...

    State and National Breed Show Locations

    Thought I'd start a new thread. For those of you who show heifers and are involved on the state and national levels. I think other breed members may be interested in where your State and Nationals shows are/were. And what you liked about the location or disliked. The Texas Junior Angus Assn held...

    Controlling Flies

    For the past few years I've been using fly tags. Not completley satisfied with them either. Seems like you've gotta use 2 on each cow. I'm wondering what have others found to be the most effective(time and dollar wise) to contrl flies. I put out fly blocks also but it seems that I'm always late...

    Cellulosic Ethanol

    I am curious to know if anyone has heard about cellulosic ethanol made from rice stalks. From what I've been told it does not take food off of anyones plate.

    BALING HAY ON SHARES

    I am at odds about what to do. For years I have been sharing the fertilizer cost with a local "hay man". He bales the hay on my place, he gets half and I get half. He tells me now that he can no longer afford to do this and wants to come up with a new agreement. With the cost of deisel and...
