Heard the news a while back, so sad. They don't make them any better better than Paul. As others have said, his knowledge and more importantly his willingness to share it others is second to none! Prayers, God Bless.

I had the same problem a couple weeks ago. I give the nonelectronic portions of the camera a good dose of Raid. The left over Raid seems to keep them out.

Thats about what it cost me. I think dical, salt, and minerals came to $47 this year. It seems the same stuff last year was around $30.

Re: Cereal Grains - Mid Febuary I have two acre food plot that I have paid to have put into either beans or corn the past couple years. The problem is it is expensive and the high deer densities virtually wipe them out by November. After reading these posts I am contemplating splitting the...

Dbltree- I see your preference is not to let the clover seed sit too long before warm weather when frost seeding. What would be your suggested date be for SE Iowa?

Thanks Dbltree for posting my photos. One correction in that first photo the Switchgrass is on the right(unmowed) the left is clover that was planted last year. I still plan to have the field sprayed with Atrazine at the beginning of April. If I do that would you still clip those old taller...
