I sated back some 20 odd years ago, that the farmer, should be alowed to strike. Up here in Canada, farming is getting tuffer, and tuffer to make it ,and to get a head, with the high rising fuel costs, fertilizer,and seed, and getting less and less for our product. Up here we martched up on parlament hill, but for 1 day. Other times for one day as well. As far as I'm concerned, all that did was make the public mad at the farmer. When a factory workers goes on strike, It is for weeks on end. I feel that all us farmers, on both sides of the border, need to be paid for what they are worth.

We have a thanklees job, and not getting paid much for our efforts. And so does the truck driver. Thanks. This is my opinion anyway. What is your opinion?

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Auction Musings - by Dave Gohl. I was thinking the other day about all the auctions I've been to in the last few years. There've been many. Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
