Wien the creek in front of our house is stirred by a stiff breeze and the sun dances on the water, one is tempted to think we have a beautiful spot of God’s earth. Of course, we must look the other way when it comes to all the mud which the cows and tractors drag around due to the rainy weather.

I’ve had some pleasant visits recently with old friends who I hadn’t seen for almost 20 years It is delightful to share experiences and renew an old acquaintance. I’m reminded of a story from my youth. You see as a 16 year old, I had a classmate who was ill a long time with a heart con dition. It seemed there was always something to keep me busy and so I put off going to visit this friend. One day I took a big bouquet of flowers and drove to her home. There her mother met me on the Fish Moves on Land The climbing perch is a renowned land traveler.

Red Rose Test Cow Feeds Your cows need the best and these are the best dairy feeds we know how to make. There is a Red Rose 14, 16, and 18 Test Cow Feeds to fit your needs.

They are high in fat, minerals and protein, very palatable and made from top quality grains and pro teins.
