Whew,it's morning. Not too sore from it all. We ran 63 5-700 pound calves through the chute yesterday. I pushed them through and did the castrating. The oldest boy ran the chute and scale,the wife gave the shots and poured them. We were done by 2 o'clock. No problem there if that had been it for the day,but there was a round bale feeder that was trashed,so I got that welded back together. When I took it back out,there were about 20 11-1200 pound fats headed out across the pasture. They aren't supposed to be there. They had smashed through a board fence at the end of the feedlot and were still pouring out of there. I slogged through mud that was half way to the top of my boots and dragged a gate shut so they couldn't get mixed in with the cows,but three of them already had. I shot back around front with the tractor,ran in the house and told the wife to call the boy and get him back here. While I was dragging a gate out to plug the hole,two more got out. We got the big group of them back around in the barn and in to the feedlot then had to go back out and sort off the ones that were with the cows. At the end,I was elated that I could still run and drag gates through the mud without my heart exploding right out of my chest.

Today's Featured Article - The Ferguson System Principal An implement cutting through the soil at a certain depth say eight inches requires a certain force or draft to pull it. Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically? The draft forces are
