Wisconsin has a problem in the south west corner with feral hogs past 5/10 years. The university DNA researchers had a report 2 years back that the "feral" hogs are DNA showed about 1/2 to 2/3 "domestic" breedings with the "Great White" as used in many confinement operations the most common- but the Duroc and Hampshire close seconds and the Berkshire showed up in one- the sample size was 18 or 20 of road kill and damage contol shooting, shot during deer season 2008/2009. The kicker in some of the samples was the Russian Boar indications the same as the Tennesee herds that traces back to pre WW1 imports for private hunting and some "Texas" feral stock--some marker or a section of DNA strand traceable, need a DNA biologist to tell how. Court case was about a game farm operator that had a permit hassle in Wisconsin and was accused of taking Texas stock from his operation in Texas and turning them loose in Wisconsin causeing the damaging herd to be established. Jury heard the DNA results and complaining/prosecution witness prior record and said not guilty- it seemed that escaped domestic stock was most of problem, the Russian boar known to wander from Tennesee to other states and minimal identifiable recent "Texas" DNA in samples so prosecution hadn"t met burden of proof for a "criminal" malicious mischief charge. Mother raised a "escaped from confinement operation" pig with couple others before it ended in freezer, sister had a couple other escaped pigs wandering in ditch next to field couple years back in Iowa- and about a 100 got out of a transport trailer that was hit by a drunk driver in Polk county near Des Moines- some of their offspring supposed to be still loose in town"s no hunting areas. DNRs and politicians, PETA argueing- we need a cajun solution as in a "feral hog barbecue is newest cooking trend" to get them under control. RN

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
