"Total Mix" Delivers More
Mix more long-stemmed hay into the ration - up to 30% by weight depending on
hay type and moisture content.
Gehl’s secret is the remarkable “Hay-Slicer Auger.” It incorporates a pair of unique knife

My husband has been watering

forgetting to turn off the water and
so he bought a timer. It was no fun
going outside with a flashlight at
11 p.m. to check if the water was
shut off. I even got him to lay a
soaker hose along my lima beans.
The other week I was glad that I
had planted flowers in my garden
as I could use them for a bouquet
Our son Philip and his wife Lisa
had a baby girl and I sent her some
flowers. However, they were not
as beautiful as the ones that our
daughter in Texas had a florist
deliver. While she was in the hos
