"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

Soybeans can easily be affected by Sudden Death Syndrome, Brown Stem Rot, Dectes Stem Borer, and Charcoal Rot depending on weather, disease fusarium that is present in the soil, and rain fall. Also, spraying for insects at R3 may hold you from Stink Bug (and other pod sucking insects) but an eye needs to be kept open as weather can also affect the ability of these "critters" to make a comeback at times.

This product has many strengths. They include weeds with little resistance, non volatile, and exceptional broad spectrum on weed species. However; this contact herbicide is subject to one of the great mysteries of plant physiology, the production of nitrites in the plant, the metabolic process of glutamate and ammonium to form glutamine from a catalyst. Glutamine is a key enzyme in the nitrogen metabolic pathway in organisms. TOP Ag Services is a Beck's Hybrids seed dealer. We provide Hybrid Corn Seed, Soybean Seed, and Wheat Seed.
