Spineless Obama and wacko Bachman , should be quite a dog and pony show next year.

If Ron Paul doesn't get elected president this time, it will be damn obvious the flaw of democracies.

Hopefully 3rd times the charm.

Saw a wheat field today north of Portage la
Prairie - combined and field work complete. I'm
gonna guess winter wheat. Barley across the
road was still a might green. A few miles away
saw another field of wheat that hadn't even
formed heads yet.
Looked like canola just finishing flowering.

Field of WW could be combined at Clair.
Canola swathed near Petersen.
Our canola later this week will be close.
Wheat about 10 days to start swathing.
Keep the heat coming to dry up more standing water! Roads are STILL soft like in May!
Last 2 weeks were great for haying in our area. Way more bales than last year.

WW just started yesterday south of here. Early/diseased peas this week. Some canola down by next weekend maybe.

That Dumb B**** Bachmann has never worked for The Private Sector. Her Only other job outside of Politics was Yep worked for Thee IRS. She ain'ta TEA Party Candidate, Dr. Ron Paul is Thee only True One. We kin help him win by informing Each & Everyone what he Truely Stands For. He is A Libertarian Constitutionalist as am I. Never Liked The System!!!!!!!!!

SWW for seed is down and depending on tonights rain should be soon.

Barley looking good after ww
Canola knocked down fri. 50% seed coat change

Ron has more smarts than the rest combined
he is so far right he's almost left on a lot of things.
get out of the wars

stop the gravy train to big business

taking monetary policy away from the big banks (the fed) and giving it back to the govt. / people

i do not think his healthcare plans will work, but may be better than the hodge podge mess they have now.

will never be president too strong of principals.

his policy's upset a lot of powerful
groups.
banks, legal system,
military complex.health insurance industry, wall street etc.

[Braveheart]

Canola close, likely swath today. First hrs dessicated, will probably go Wednesday. Maybe some oats this week as well.

[$short]

The lentils were preharvested in early July. Canola is half swathed and may preharvest durum later this week.

And with any luck we hope to start the second spray on the unseeded acres or as the old timers would call it........summerfallow

[mustardman]

Started peas on the 6th, started green lentils yesterday. Yellow mustard standing and is waiting patiently till I get there. Early durum very close. All the canola in area has been swathed best looking canola this area has seen, should pay for the seed costs and fert with a little left over.

[mustardman]

I agree sawfly all the big money would have been doing everything to keep him from winning

[SASKFARMER3]

Mustard if all you have left from a great canola
crop is a little spending money it's not much of a
crop.

[mustardman]

No there are probably some 45 and 50 plus crop. I have just have a beef with seed companies that turn $12 canola into $ 465 seed
