AW, YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT! The "yuppies" that you seem to despise have substantially the same aspriations that you do- they're just a hell of a lot better at making a living at something else, and THEY have kids (about your age)that they have to feed (unlike you, who are fed by your momma). By virtue of the fact that THEY found a way to BUY what they have, and despite the demands of their REAL job manage to spend even SOME time working it, they deserve your respect. They may not know everything- but they are there. They may require turn key equipment- because they don't have the time to fart around with unreliable stuff like you do. You may not like the stuff they buy to do the job- tough! The same folks you disdain as yuppie farmers create the computer programs you use, engineer the vehicles your momma drives you around in and teach at your schools. IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT THAT TSC IS WHAT IT IS... and YOU would do well to listen and learn from some of these folks as well as the "old land" farmers. Your mom has 5 acres- YOU will NEVER be an "old land" farmer because at best she can leave you 5 acres-just like I will never be an "old money" millionaire because my momma couldn't leave me a cent. I bought and paid for every grain of dirt I own- no "old land" and no "old money", just like a lot of so called "yuppies". Farms get sold and split up not because 'yuppies' are willing to buy, but because farmers are willing to sell out. TSC becomes a boutique store not because of the yuppies, but because THATS WHERE THE MONEY IS. And- laugh at my horse business, pal, but understand that I am a helluva lot more successful at raising world champion appaloosas profitably than you are at raising chickens, and I do it as a side job. Ask me how- I'd be happy to tell you, and you MIGHT be able to apply some of it to chicken farming. or- assume I'm a "yuppie" cause i drive a nice truck, and don't learn $hit. The modern farmer is a BUSINESS MAN- as much a "YUPPIE" as any other business man, but with differnt skills and different needs. As a YOUNG MAN, you would do well to stop hanging on the coat tails of others' prejudice and try to learn from EVERY adult you come in contact with.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
