For
those who may think that farming is a
breeze, check this out. Matt Short of
Central Illinois Feed in Emden and Jo
Parr of Mason City were hard at work
this week baling alfalfa. Those who have
done this work can easily testify that
it is hot, itchy, heavy labor. This year
with the lack of rain the cut alfalfa is
particularly dusty as well. But at the
end of the day, sore arms, achy backs,
and sunburns result in a few wagons full
of hay that will help sustain cattle
through the winter. Any cattle farmer
will tell you that it is well worth it.
