be no weed seeds to trouble you. But I tend to make the lazy mans compost. You know
a big pile of what ever is handy turned once at 6 mounth then used the next spring.
When I do get manure to add to this pile it is most often rabbit or sheep that do not
have the weed seed content of cow or horse. just lucky to have a place where I can get
a few ton's of ether whenever I feel the need to get realy dirty and smelly so I can go
to McDonalds, park my truck (overflowing) near the door & go inside to eat.
The wife and I make and use several ton's a year, great stuff, better than anything
you can get from the store. Dan (Don't like McDonalds) izzy@sound.net
