Hi all,
Lots of corn left out there in the fields:

And I'll bet you might just be wondering why??

Check out the corn cobs -- How that machine does that I don't know

If I didn't know better, bet the deer that left these fresh tracks is wondering the same thing

Checked with Bob Sweet and he tells me the machine takes the kernels off the cob and they then grind it up and put it in the silo.
I remember as a kid that dad used to husk corn and put it in a bin to dry and if my memory serves me correctly we fed it to the pigs off and on so there would be strips of fat then lean meat for fresh side pork and that bacon we also smoked.
