Beasley and Charlie are the Pets of the Week from Noah's Ark Animal
Shelter! They've been around each other their whole lives so Noah's
Ark hopes to place them together. Beasley is a 6-year-old female Blue
Russian cat weighing 13 pounds. Her long hair needs to be groomed
often and she loves to be scratched. Her friend Charlie is 6-year-old
female domestic shorthair cat weighing about 12 pounds. She is very
shy at the shelter, but she likes it when people brush her or scratch her
back. She is most comfortable laying on her blanket under the couch
Beasley sleeps on. To meet Beasley and Charlie or one of their 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

pastures are ready, but they may have a
long row to hoe this year. I guess it just
depends on how much high-quality hay
one has stored up, and will it pay? Put
the pencil to it; you’re the boss!
In the markets as of Nov. 2 — The
help them make it on the standing forage cattle futures market was up this past
without breaking the bank.
Wheat pastures look poorly for the
most part but at least most farmers got
it up this time. Just depending on the
amount of rainfall and how well the field
drains as to how poorly it looks. I guess
the good news is it’s not as wet this time
as it was in the fall of 2018, at least so far. April, and up several dollars. Cold and
Most folks have weaned their calves
by now, though I still see quite a few
big calves out in pastures here and
there throughout the county If they
have not been weaned, this freeze will
likely convince them to do so. Weaning

the most part they are above
average this time. The market
prices remain depressing,
especially for the fresh weaned bred cows and heifers were mostly
calves and cull cows. These two
classes of cattle are the most
important to our rancher’s
bottom line. There is not much
demand for un-weaned calves
right off the cow, but demand is
a bit stronger for long-weaned
calves.
There are still some stocker calves out
there that were on warm season summer
grasses, but I look for most of those to
go to the feedlot or a grow yard (having
health issues) after this killing freeze
several ranchers say that they have quite we had last week, especially since there
a bit of standing forage, possibly enough are no winter pastures ready to turn in
to get them to the first to the middle part on. Some operators try to keep stocker
of December without feeding any hay
I think that is pretty common in Cooke
County Yes, the protein and energy
levels drop after a hard freeze but there
can still be adequate levels to take care
of your wet bag cows after weaning. If
not, you can feed a little supplement to

We received more rain last week with
most of the county getting from 1 to 1.5
inches. Tuesday produced the majority
of the rainfall and Wednesday was a slow weights are all over the place but for
drizzle/mist. Halloween was nice
for all the youngsters to trick or
treat, trunk or treat, treat and eat
or whatever it’s called nowadays.
We went with our three
grandkids and as always, we all
had a blast! I drove the getaway
truck and ate candy Ha.
It sure is wet anywhere you go
around these parts. We got our
second and third freeze of the
season on Thursday and Friday
morning with temps getting down to the
mid- to upper-20s. All the warm season
grass is done for this year, though there
should be quite a bit of standing forage
out in some pastures. I have heard
