Whoa !! I posted this thread , then went to the barn to do night chores. It really took off in a different direction. I went to a high end pure bred cow sale last week. I recognized many folks that I new that took the day off work , don't own a dairy , and many live in town even . Yet they still want to be known as cattle breeders, and will board a animal some where and drag it around to shows. These are in my mind posers. To me they are no different than some one with a white car that has black doors , and wanted to be a cop. If I go out and stand in the garage, does that make me a car ? Just can't see why people want to do these things. Cattle shows are just like rodeos , more for entertainment than improving . Advancements in cattle breeding now work like this. A egg is take from a genomic tested heifer at about 9 months of age . Then fertilized with seaman take from a yearling bull , also genome tested and sexed. Fertilized embryo is implanted into a surrogate mother. the heifer calf is born before it's own mother can have her first calf naturally . The show ring doesn't mean a thing in improving livestock anymore. It is just another place to go and pose for the camera. Then get in your truck , with the farm plates, and head off to the cottage to relax. You can be a farmer with as little as one acre , think green house or Mushroom farm, but you still have to produce a farm product.Not about the number of acres, just turning up some kind of farm produce. Fish farm, Marijuana farms don't have to be big to have a big cash flow.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
