BillingsGazette.com :: Fire risk still high in East
This story just points out how explosive the situation is here in Eastern Montana. It also points out the importance of the first strike on a fire.
Eastern Montana has been spared a large fire so far this summer due to stepped up first-strike efforts by federal and volunteer fire crews.
If you can jump quick enough and get around a fire, you can shut it down. Sometimes the risks are a little greater but the rewards are worth it.
Since you been busy- Have you had a chance to see where the AAA (American Angus Association) signed on with USDA and NAIS for a "grant" to promote the National ID and sign up premises?
USDA pimping with taxpayer money and AAA prostituting to the cattleman...
I may have to go back to raising herefords- or get some of those wooly Galloway- they seem to enjoy Montana winters....
I really think the members of the Angus Association need to rebel and let the association know what they think about this. I'm not a member so I can't say much. It won't change how I feel about Angus breed. Just because the people promoting the Angus breed doesn't mean Angus cattle are bad. They are just associating with the wrong humans.
