When I was in high school, we had FFA game hunts. Yes, actual game hunts with real guns SANCTIONED BY THE SCHOOL! There would be about 5-6 teams of student hunters and each team would go out on the first Saturday of hunting season. Each piece of game that was shot was assigned a certain number of points, as well as each species of game. A pheasant would be worth more than a rabbit or a squirrel. Each team had 2-3 adults per team and probably about 10 kids on each team. You were assigned so much time and by the time your time was up you had to be back at the FFA shop to check your game in. A week or two later we had a banquet where all the game was prepared and eaten and parents were included in the feast. Can you imagine the headlines that would hit the news if any school did this today? Matter-of-fact, my son, who is a senior in high school this year and a member of the same FFA that I was in, brought a rubber band gun to school when he was in eighth grade. This was nothing more than a crudely cut 2" X 4" with a couple of clothes pines glued to it. My wife and I didn't know he had it in his posession and he had picked it up for $ .25 a couple of days earlier at a garage sale. Two teachers tried real hard to have him expelled because he brought a "GUN!" to school. The principal just rolled his eyes, told him to go back to glass, and never bring the board to school again.

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
