Let me tell you about my experience with wives. My first wife couldn't budget 50 cents, couldn't cook, couldn't manage the house, couldn't manage the kids, couldn't help with the farm, just a total screw up. Married her when I was 19, didn't have enough wisdom about me to even think about what you should look for in a wife. We were both going in opposite directions. Married for 18 years and I grew a small farming operation into quiet a large one with all these problems at home. After 18 years I divorced her when I was 37 years old. I got the privelege of buying back a lot of what I had already bought once before, but was able to keep all the farms. Just had more debt. Met a woman a couple of years later that had been in a rough one. We got married and started down this road of life. Her mother and her kids and one of my kids tried to give us fits, but she and I were on the same page, and stood together. We did not let them come between us. We took the farming operation even farther. She knew nothing about this business when we married, but she knew what she wanted to do and who she wanted to do it with. She learnt to rake hay for me, learnt to manage the poultry houses if I needed to do another job, helped me castrate hogs, work cows, pull weeds out of soybeans,and any other job that needed to be done. I even got her a garbage route from a restaurant in town. You name it we did it, but we did it together. To make a long story short, we will be married 19 years on Sunday, January 22, 2012. We have basically retired now. I am 58 and she is 55. We have a home in Florida where we spend the winter. It couldn't have been any better, it's been a hell of a ride. This is my thoughts on wives: There is a difference in women, just like cattle and pickup trucks. If it ain't working you need to get to swapping. When it comes time for one of us to go, I hope I am first. I wouldn't know where to begin without her.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
