The Hull Whaling Trade
By T. Sheppard, published December 1919 Abstract For almost two and a half centuries the whaling trade was important to the port of Hull, with a high proportion of the population associated with it. Eventually the trade evolved into the fishing and oil industries that dominated the port from the mid-nineteenth to the middle of the following century.
Hair Today - Gone Tomorrow
Hair care products have come a long way over the years. Walk down a hair care aisle in the store, and it can be kind of an overwhelming experience. Gone are the days of simple choices like hair spray, gel, or mousse. Now you can toss into the mix: oil, putty, forming cream, paste, styling wax. We’re no longer merely cleaning and restoring our hair. Today we are: volumizing, hydrating, amplifying, manipulating…we are even dry shampooing.

Boil Over. Now what?
When you’ve got a glass top range, the mere thought of a boil over is terrifying. I’m not a scientist, but I believe it is a scientific certainty that whatever substance boils over will burn on contact. And because of the radiant heat, there’s no opportunity to soak up any of it before it adheres. And boy, does it adhere. The glass top makes the use of abrasive cleaners and scrubbies a no-no, so how do you get that stuck-on gunk off of the cooking surface? 2 ingredients…and a little elbow grease.

Wait For the Rain
Killing weeds is a summer-long process. Now that the dog days have arrived, the heartiest of the weeds have survived…and a few new faces have started playing around the neighborhood, as well. It’s a great time to spot treat the weeds in your yard. You might think that the best time to hit ‘em with a sprayer is the hottest, driest day. Wait until they’re really thirsty – then soak those bad boys with poison! That theory makes sense.

America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, is accepting farmer nominations now through April 1 for rural public school districts to apply for grants of $10,000 and $25,000 . This year, the program will be awarding $2.3 million for math and science curriculum enhancement.
A Shortage of Ag Educators and Applicants
Agriculture may be asking for assistance from an employment agency because they have some positions to fill especially in the field of Ag education. While at Farm Technology Days I spent some time with Al Herrman the Executive Director of the Wisconsin Ag Education and Workforce Development Council who told me that we have a number of FFA chapters that have had to close and that some schools have had to close down their Ag classes because of a lack of qualified teachers.
5 Reasons Why We Should Understand Agriculture
We SHOULD understand agriculture or in other words we MUST start understanding it because it is like having the cake and eating it too. It is a win/win situation that brings both teams (producers & consumers) together for a victory. There are five simple reasons why you NEED to understand it and how it could enhance your lifestyle for a cheap price of just reading this free blog! What a bargain! 1. PHYSIOLOGICAL NEEDS – We use it on a regular basis. No farming = No Food + No Clothes.
Making Dollars and Sense of the USDA numbers
The latest world supply and demand report is now out and although it is the first such report of 2016, a lot of the report look back at 2015. The report was received well initially by the market but the bottom line for the year is, even with a slight decline in total production over November estimates, we still ended up with a near record soybean crop and the third largest corn crop on record.
To Bee or Not to Bee
We care about bees. We care about them because they pollinate ? of the food we consume and produce $40 billion of products annually. They are important. Unfortunately, last year the United States lost 42 percent of our honey bee colonies. Back in the 1980s, we believed that the varroa mite were causing the issue. Now today, scientist believe climate change, growing human population, deforestation, use of pesticides, and different land practices are all factors in the lost of bees.
Fall Into Spring
If you’ve neglected your lawn care all season long, it’s not too late. In fact, you just might be a genius! Okay, that’s slightly exaggerated, and it’s definitely getting to the point where you’d better act now or it will be too late, but fall is the best time to prepare your lawn for next season. Though your lawn itself may not be growing at an accelerated rate, the roots and rhizomes are going nutso beneath the surface. If you only fertilize once, this is the time.
Budget Bill AG Hits and Misses
Well once again it went into the 11th hour. And once again everybody had something to complain about. But still, Congress was able to pass an omnibus spending bill to keep the government funded through the rest of the 2016 fiscal year. Actually most political observers feel this budget bill might have seen the highest level of compromise between Democrats and Republicans in some years and may be a sign of a loosening of the grasp of constant gridlock.
Well Deserved Kudos to Wisconsin Ag Director
We are very proud of our Agriculture program and the content we provide both online and on-air through our Midwest Communications Radio stations. Mike Austin is a well-respected member of the Agriculture community and a terrific guy. You have probably read his blog posts or listened to his podcasts on our sites. He is a humble, hard-working guy who would never draw attention to it himself, but we tracked down the press release.
Value of the County Fair
County Fair season is in full swing and State Fair is just around the corner. It's a great time of year because of the social and educational value the county fair provides. Even though it may no longer be the premiere event of the summer it still is of great importance to many in the community. The fair still offers an opportunity to socialize and see old friends and neighbors.
Strong Dollar Impact
Ag exports were expected to be down this year but, the big drop in the Chinese economy was not. In speaking with Gary Siporski of Vita Plus he mentioned that last year about 70% of Chins'a dairy imports, primarily powder and cheese were from the United States. Now in the last 12 months Sipiorski points out that China has already devalued their currency 5 times, so that should be telling us something.
