I'll tell you Phillip,I don't necessarily agree with traditional farmer on the whole organic thing,but when it comes to the whole price support and gubmint interference thing here in the states,I can't bring myself to disagree with him. I was watching US Farm report this morning and they were singing the praises of the Farm Bill. They said dairy farmers would fare best from it with supports up to $1.50 on the first five million pounds. If I was still milking cows and was on the receiving end,I'd think it was great,and I'm glad if some smaller guys will benefit,but when it comes right down to it,logically,how much sense does it make to incentivize even more production when there's so much surplus?

It's a real kick in the sack when you've played by the rules and done everything right and still get bent over through now fault of your own.

They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
