I watched it slowly work its way across our woods across the road from my house about 6-7 years ago. No real big ash trees over there, so I wasn't terribly worried about them. Really didn't want to see it behind my house though, as I have huge ash trees along the river flats up to about 40" diameter. I started noticing them dying off shortly after it made its way across the woods across the road. Before they went to total waste, I timbered about 45 very large ash trees that had real nice logs, better than turning them into firewood. I still have hundreds of ash trees I've been working at for the last few years, up to about 30". Most sawmills are taking a lot of ash right now, dead trees, before they actually become punky. Most of you know how long they'll last standing, until the roots rot off and they tip over. With that said, if you cut an ash tree, when it starts to get the sucker leaves on the trunk, it will have sucker trees growing from the stump. I'm sort of hoping by continuing to do that, I'll have some left until they figure something out to stop it. If you cut the suckers, I have found they'll sucker off too. I have a few now that are about 4" in diameter. Just a sort of home brew experiment I'm working on, what have I got to lose?

Today's Featured Article - Harvestin Hay: The Early Years (Part 2) - by Pat Browning. The summer of 1950 was the start of a new era in farming for our family. I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
