    Plenty wet over here.

    You may want to expedite that fill up. Propane is used to dry wet grain. And then again maybe it won't be used. Wheat producers didn't use anything more than air movement driers because there is no sense buying propane for wheat as the crop is already deemed below milling quality. Most of the...

    MWA Dispanding after 52 years

    Certain bloggers defend non-profits orgs as if their livelihoods depend on it. Who do you work for? I am a farmer/rancher and we have the same problem as the shooting sports. An aging population with the average age over 55 years old and not enough recruitment of young guys.

    It's a theme. Probably not what a young hunter wants to join.

    MWA Dispanding after 52 years

    Exactly. A good indicator would be bird dog sales. No one in North Dakota raises English Setter Pointers. The last guy was Havelock Setters New England. Sales lagged and he retired. Guys under 50 years old are not buying. I don't follow duck dog sales but it would be interesting to know how...

    MWA Dispanding after 52 years

    There are plenty of ducks. What is missing is todays youth who desire to lay in the mud. While non-profit Minnesota Waterfowl Association is disbanding another non-profit or Backcountry Hunters and Anglers is starting up recruiting those younger hikers, fern feelers and berry pickers.

    Burke County Wind Farm Denied

    There has to be a long term plan drawn up in Board rooms. First, coal leases were quietly purchased in the 50's and 60's from sellers who didn't know a big project was coming their way. I mean..."the investors" were not going to alert the sellers. As the plan goes into motion ads and stories...

    The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. Beer required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for...

    ND State Fair--Boycott or support

    Rick Springfield was very good and he did Minot a huge favor. Eddie Money got sick at the last second and Rick helped bring in Jefferson Starship and the Greg Kihn Band. I don't think Greg Kihn has a band anymore. His drummer and guitarists were borrowed from Rick Springfield. These performers...

    It would appear Heidi has changed her position on off shore drilling.

    That time I should have died...

    Had a 125 cc Suzuki dirt squirter that I could ride on the back wheel for a mile. However, we had been riding all day and were low on gas. I popped a wheeling in front of the guys and was doing 55 mph. The gas ran to the back of the tank and the carburetor leaned out. The engine revved and I...

    Burke County Wind Farm Denied

    Went to a wedding last night and met one of our Public Service Commissioners. He said the Burke County location was bad. We discussed many things and agreed when it comes to cutting deals or mitigating things...….simply cutting a check or giving a half million to Ducks Unlimited isn't good for...

    PG, Do you still have that buffalo robe left to you by your great grandfather after he poached one of the last remaining wild buffalo? I remember you posted a trophy picture of it once.

    The gulls didn't follow the tractor, they followed the plow because you were turning the soil upside down exposing the earthworms. Todays no-till barely leaves a track/groove. The earthworms are now even more plentiful in a no-till seedbed. PG, the truth is just not in you.

    Every State has some laws requiring a certain percentage of power use be provided by renewables. North Dakota's is something like 10 or 15%. We have surpassed that threshold and while the PSC has not denied many permits they have been letting the wind energy developers know that denial of...

    Sb 2315 - reborn after house gutting!

    My guess would be hot cement. When concrete has been in the truck barrel rotating too long it can start to set up and needs to come out of there pronto. Simply let it harden and get under it with a payloader. Slabs will break off and haul back to the plant. But, it looks like a section line...

    I believe the ranchers last name was Bundy.
