**THE HUSBAND REPORTS:  When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.  But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first.  There was always something more important to me.  Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.  When I arrived home one day,  I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors.  I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house.  I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush.  I said,  "When you finish cutting grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."  The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.

Alfalfa and grass sold steady to slightly stronger than last Monday and Thursdays sales.  Quality was decent.   Buyer attendance was pretty good.  Bedding was weaker.  Limited interest in straw.

**An old married couple no sooner hit the pillows when the old man passes gas and says “seven points!” His wife rolls over and says, “What the world was that?” He replies “fart football.” A few minutes later his wife lets one rip and says “Touchdown… tie score.” Five minutes later the old man lets on go and says “Aha! I’m ahead. 14 to 7” Not to be outdone, the wife rips out another and ties the score. A few seconds later she lets out a little squeaker. “Field goal. I lead 17-14”Now the pressure is on for the old man. Refusing to be beat by a woman, he strains real hard. He gives it everything he’s got and accidently pooped the bed. The wife says “What the heck was that?!” The old man said “Half time. Switch sides.”

Market was generally lower today.  Buying crowd was fair but not a lot of motivation.
