    Rye in my deer plots

    Agree. Wet summer, we burnt down 35 acres with Round Up and 24d-ester. Waited two weeks and planted timothy, orchard grass, red clover and alsike clover. That mixture is doing very well and see few weeds.

    Madder than HECK at an old Customer!!

    For sure he took advantage of you. Charging him for 50 hrs use is reasonable, he got 25 free hours.

    Driving a tractor...

    Several years ago I was working on a farm appraising corn. The farmer pulled into a hay field beside me with two big beautiful white horses pulling a sickle bar mower. It was such a unusual and relaxing sight that I had to take a break and watch the horses and farmer make a round. Now I would...

    What does it cost to heat your house?

    It looks like I am the only one who has posted that heats with coal? Our house is a big stone house, 220 years old, drafty. Our attic is insulated, have good windows and doors. We burn between 6 and 7 tons of anthracite rice coal and that also heats our domestic hot water. Cost is between...

    Decline of Bugs

    Here in central Pa. the gnats are bad due I guess to the rainy, humid summer we've been having. No mosquitoes though which I'm thankful for but plenty of ticks.

    Red oak fire wood

    I hate to mention this but in today's world if you do a cut your own tops you need to be concerned about somebody getting hurt and then worry about a lawsuit.

    Sure do miss my tractor

    Nothing wrong with taking anti-depression medicine to help you through these tough times and when you are better stop using them. Would be best to discuss with your doc.

    Sad ...and time passes on.

    Watched the circus thirty times. Well, didn't exactly watch, was busy keeping track of 25-30 sixth graders who were attending the circus. Was a class reward at the end of the year for the kids.

    Bucket List

    I only have one and that is to own a champion English Setter. To be specific a setter that competes in horseback shooting dog stakes. I just spent three years having my setter with a top trainer and although she did very well she was never named a champion. I'm a bit disappointed but I have my...

    Ford Dealer Says I Need A New Battery?

    Thanks for all the thoughtful replies. I am a crop insurance adjuster so this truck gets started and stopped more than most vehicles, especially when appraising silage corn. Not sure if that would be hard on a battery or not. Dealer called and said the price was around $140 so decided to get a...

I believe the cranking power when new is in the 700's and they said mine is in the 400's. Truck is three years old and have never had a problem with the battery. Are...

    birds

    You are so lucky to have wild game birds. In Pa. quail are a thing of the past along with pheasants. We do have woodcock migrating through in the spring and fall and some grouse in the mountains. I use quail for my dog training but they stay in a pen and after working the dogs the birds left in...

    Good choice for first tractor

    If you have them in your area how about a nice little Kioti? Good tractors, usually much cheaper than a Kubota and lots of things you can use them for if you get one with a loader.

    Whats it worth?

    As long as he knows its limitations I think it would be a nice unit for a homeowner. That backhoe would be great to have, especially if it's frame mounted. With the low hours the price is not bad.
