I just subscribed to this group and found a very old thread on meat
rabbits.  Are there presently any meat rabbit breeders from western WA
in this group?  I am looking for some Champagnes d'Argent and
Californias.  Please feel free to email me privately.

    When the founding fathers spoke of a government "of the people, by the people, and for the people," were they simply indulging in a predilection for catchy phraseology? Or did they really mean it?
One need not search far for indisputable evidence that each of our three ...

I found a giant catapiller in front of my barn today.  It was in some
soggy horse manure if that matters.  It's about 3 to 4 inches long and
3/4 inch thick.  Its sort of a pink and gray color with bright yellow
things sticking out of the face.  Noticable legs, and some fur.  It's

I just repaired the triplex that burned thru and fell off an old barn
that is on my farm and needs serious repair.  When I went inside I
noticed that a sheet of tin has blown off the roof, and the wood is
starting to rot under it.  I intend to rebuild this barn when I can

I just saw your post about needing something to *permanently remove*
pet urine. I wish I had seen it sooner. I have a recipe that works
better than anything you can buy in the stores. And cheaper to buy too!
Yes, I do sell the recipe...but it only costs $3.00 (the money helps me

        I'm having a problem with a pond that I hope someone can help
me with. The outflow of my pond is composed of two 24" galvinized pipes
that run through breastworks. One the side that faces the water I have
two 24" galvinized pipe elbows. By adjusting the elbows by twisting

Been approach by company that wants to put tower on hill behind my pasture.
NEone got experience with this and what should be paid/what to look out for?
I know its an eyesore, but really hurting bad after  the beef border closure
crap the americans pulled & could use the extra $$$.

We've never used the Homelite 5500 generator that came with our second
home until this past weekend.  Luckily it was stored by the previous
owner with no gas and no oil in it.  Not knowing what kind of oil it
took, I used 10-40, filled it half up with gas, and fired it up.  It

I put up my mailbox at my new house this evening at about 7 pm.  My new
house is an old farm house, on a country road.  I got a rubber mailbox, so
dents won't show.  It's got to get knocked off the post or show obvious
damage.

I recently moved to a rural hillside site and am having trouble with yellowjackets. I did find
one nest & sprayed it, reducing the problem by about a third.
Anyone know of plants that they hate? I just want to reduce the numbers around the house & kids.
There are also plenty of ...

                                    In the final weeks of World War II in Europe, the American armies captured some 7 million German POWs. How could we deal with this mass of hateful monsters? General Eisenhower and the U.S. Army came up with a new legal designation for POWs: ...
