Long story. Decided to butcher 32 month old heifer, been with bull for a year and a half, and was still open. Was surprised when I got hanging weights, 460# and 465#. I knew she was big. Had a customer for one side and I took the other. She wanted to go to a different processing plant because they shrink wrap not plastic and paper. Picked up my side yesterday and got an inventory sheet telling me breakdown of cuts. Was surprised when I saw what I had gotten. When I started putting it in freezer, I only had 3 porterhouse, 4 T-bones, 6 rib steaks (no rib roasts), but had 9 chuck steaks and 8 sirloins (all steaks were 1") and 97# of ground beef, and about 30# of roasts. Called as soon as I finished putting meat in freezer to complain and was told they always have more waste on older animals because they are required to remove all backbone. I said I understood that, but where were the rest of the rib, porterhouse and T-bone steaks? was told you get more lesser quality cuts because of age and it was a heifer. We've been raising our own beef for over 50 years and first time I've heard this story. Is there any truth in their story? I told him I usually get kissed when somebody does this to me, he hung up! I'm going back to my old processor after this and he's 20 miles closer.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
