We took a day off, Wed. June 8, went to the farm and fertilized the coastal field. Timed it just right. Finished spreading at 10:26 am, rain started about 12:30. Got a much, much needed inch, most of it nice and slow. Came back to Dallas Wed. night.
Watched the weather and Thursday, June 9, turned stormy. Got 3.5 inches. Most of it slow, but Thurs eve, big storm moved through and dumped several inches in an hour. Hope it didn't wash too much of the fertilizer away.
James is right about the hogs. We've got about a 4 acre field of nice, clean 95% weed free bahaia we're trying to grow for hay and the hogs are tearing it up.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
