    Dogs.

    In East Tx and I get it. I don't believe them either. Next 2 weeks supposed to be mid 90's and no rain predicted in the near future. We were not supposed to get rain this week and we got a short summer storm almost every day (just enough to keep that humidity level up). And maybe a shower on...

    Dogs.

    I want to remind you guys in the HOT climate zones to watch your dog for excessive heat. My GSD will play fetch, chase the ball, run etc as long as I will play with her. She will overheat just because she wants to be with me. So excessive panting, tongue to the side drooling thick saliva etc...

    LS Tractor Oil, Gas, & Air Filter Information

    I had bought a filter pack and multiple oil filters a few years back. It's what the dealer sold me (old numbers). The filter pack had a filter or 2 that were the wrong size for my machine. The oil filters were fine, but I've now used them up and had to order some more. In the meantime the...

    Hay Question

    Several years ago I had a similar situation, cut grass left un-baled. Solution: rake it off then mow the entire field. How much of the 20ac did your friend get baled? After 2 weeks the cut grass that wasn't baled needs to be either raked off and pushed into the woods or bale it to throw away...

    Dog pics

    Hope everyone had a good 4th of July. Our GSD is not really bothered by fireworks or even times when I am shooting. But she doesn't like thunder. Not sure if it's the low rumbling aftermath but anyway.... Yesterday evening we sat outside and watched fireworks. We are able to see several...

    Poison Ivy cure?

    Don't know if it "cures" mosquito bites, haven't tried it. But I know the heat treatment takes the itch out of chiggers bites.

    LS Tractor Oil, Gas, & Air Filter Information

    Seems like above mentioned filters are all from china. So I guess I'm stuck buying LS brand. Anyway, for those you who don't have a CUT but do have a Utility Tractor, XU6168/MT 573 or similar; the LS part #'s have changed and so have the filter sizes. Oil Filter: old part #40318591 / New part...

    Poison Ivy cure?

    Good to know. Thanks. I never thought about why it works, just that it works for me. I just wanted to pass the tip along to someone who may be going crazy with the poison itch, not getting sleep and what to do if they wake up itching to death etc Hit the hair dyer for a couple of minutes then...

    Poison Ivy cure?

    I've read all 6 pages of this thread. I can definitely relate to being absolutely miserable with poison ivy/oak. My farm has plenty in the woods and some around the field edges. I try my best to stay clear especially in spring & summer. Winter time...easier to spot. Anyway, Dawn and cool water...

    Question on Fawns

    My wife saw this yesterday on a Farm to Market road in the middle of the day. The doe and new born fawn were trying to cross a busy road, very slow going, but traffic in both directions stopped. Weird time of day for deer movement, and they left a wooded area headed for an area behind several...
