Greg, I agree with your line of thinking...I try to keep everything that is grown on the farm. I would have liked to have sold some hay rounds this winter, but the market was flooded this winter (S.E.MI.) I'm not going to sell it and break even. It is high and dry and if it wasn't I'd let it rott before letting it go for near nothing. I have family and property in KY. Part of grand parents farm, I own outright my grandma's share of my Gr grandfathers farm. On Grandpa's/Grandma's farm my father let his 1st cousin grow tobacco on it. We made nothing on the tobacco but it kept the tobacco base on the farm. I was ok with that. But when I was talking to the cousin I ask what happened with the stalks, he said he spread them on his bottom. He lives on the same creek. He has to go by our farm to get out. It would have been easy enough to spread them on the field they were grown on. After I talked to him he agreed that they should have been brought back. I have a very good family friend that would give his manure away to anyone that wanted it. This was rotted down to dirt. This same man complains every year about the cost of fertilizer. This made no sense to me at all. I told him if it grows here it stays here. I told him I wouldn't give a bird turd away.I've had people that ask what I was going to do with the manure pile.I said sense it grew here I guess it should stay here. Yep they say. They thought I would say,Thanks take as much as you want. Nope not gonna happen it goes agraint my grain. So I do in fact under stand... Goodluck...MTP

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
