Handy farm hints No 33

Tractor drivers: patience is the ability to idle your motor when you
feel like stripping your gears.
Letting the cat out of the bag is easier than putting it back in.
Farmers: its not the pace of life that concerns me, its the sudden stop
at the end.

South Carolina farmer Sampson Parker amputated his arm with a pocketknife when the arm got stuck in a piece of farm machinery and his efforts to free himself sparked a fire that threatened to burn him to death.

Handy Farm Hints No.31

Always drink upstream from the herd.
Good judgement comes from experience and alot of that comes
from bad judgement.
There are three kinds of farmers - the ones that learn by reading,
some learn by observation, and the rest of them have to pee on
the electric fence to find out for themselves.

You know you’re a farmer when….

Your front carpet is muddier than your drive.
You have animals living in buildings more expensive than your house.
