Lost one to prussic poisoning tonight, first time I ever had a problem with it. I had some cows off a real small pasture for less than 3 weeks. Had hay in the area and was waiting to move it. Got it moved and let cows in and less than hour and half had one dead and 2 affected by it. Called Vet and he said not much to do but get them off pasture, which I already knew about getting them off pasture. Had very little Johnson grass in pasture, basically just a few stalks where I had feed hay last winter and it was only 4 to 6 inches tall. Did not see any red tint on Johnson grass. Guess question is how long to keep cows off pasture till it be safe and if those 2 affected have gotten up and walked/staggered around for hour or so will they be alright. I heard about it all my life, but never had any problems. It had rained just a couple tents today, was wondering if that had any effect on it Be careful, never even thought about it when I turned them out today, thought pasture had to be un grazed allot longer than 3 weeks.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
