Joy is the Noah's Ark Animal Shelter Pet of the
Week! She is calm and would make a great
inside dog. She loves to lay around the house
and snack on treats or canned food. At her
previous home she spent most of her time
outside and would get bored and escape the
yard, which is why she was brought to the
shelter. The previous owner said she was good
with kids and cats and even had a rabbit friend.
At the shelter, she is a little picky with friends
and prefers smaller dogs so she should meet
any dogs in your household before adoption.
Joy is heartworm positive; her fee has been
reduced to $50 and her heartworm treatment
will be covered for a year, as well. To meet Joy
or one of her many sheltermates, visit the
shelter at 2501 N. Weaver St. in Gainesville.
Shelter hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. any day but
Thursday or Sunday. Noah's Ark pets are also
online at www.noahsarktx.com or on Facebook
@noahsarktexas or Twitter @NoahAnimal.

the work of the pecan weevil,
according to the experts the
had stockpiled forage reserves most destructive insect pest of
pecans. Whatever the cause,
these can be managed with
lots of time and money, so
you see why pecans are so
expensive to buy. The early
freeze caused some pecans to
get stuck in the hull and once
unopened pecans freeze, they
must be opened physically,
calve in the spring are relaxing There were also quite a few
a little now after all the
work done weaning, culling,
shipping and marketing their
calf crop and cull cows. That
is unless they backgrounded
their calves, then they have
a little more work to do. Fall
calving herds should be done
with calving season by now
and rolling along feeding hay
and supplements and treating
some calves for scours already. Demand is decent for good
Stocker operators that
have cattle are sure needing
the wheat to take off soon, as
feeding hay is not going to cut
it for very long.
OK, I said I would talk about to Christmas. Let’s hope the
pecans this week so here it
goes. Our pecan trees made
lots of nuts this year just like
the oak trees made tons of
acorns! Trees were loaded
over most of the county, but
we did have some problems
that caused the crop not to
be the best quality produced;
some was OK, some was not.
In my head I counted over 18
diseases and fungus that affect AgriLife Extension website at
