Milo. I buy it by the 50# bag for $10-11 rather than the high priced bird seed, keeping the feeder going year-round. Cardinals especially, love it, as do squirrels and rabbits. Used to be Cardinals came and went with the weather. Now we have around 5 families that decided to just stay here and avoid the long trip up North and back. Watching them play their little games is amusement in itself.....the Cocks had rather fight than eat.
It is grown down here as a cash crop. Plant it in lieu of Corn.....used to be the 3rd crop in rotation with wheat and cotton but the corn boom has changed things. It has a thick short stem similar in diameter to corn and heads out in a big seed head. You combine it like wheat. The dust will eat you up when harvesting if on an open station tractor. Survives the (usually dry) summers here and likes the alkali soil.

I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
