Did you know, according to the National 4-H Council, youth who are involved in 4-H, are more likely to succeed in other areas than their peers?
More specifically, youth that are involved in livestock judging, have the opportunity to improve their critical thinking, leadership and communication skills along with building their self confidence. Livestock judging is the evaluation of animals, including cattle, sheep, goats and pigs, and the reasoning behind your placing.

The Woman’s Club of Harrison County met on Friday, Feb. 12 at Hospice of the Bluegrass for their monthly luncheon and business meeting. Cheryl Case, president, welcomed members and led everyone in the Pledge of Allegiance.  
The luncheon was catered by Layne Tussey. Bonnie Teater offered the blessing of the meal and presented spiritual values. She reminded us that God knows life is uncertain but He is ever faithful to take care of us no matter what challenges we may face.

A strong scent of skunk has been lingering around the house for the last few weeks, which is actually surprising.  Surprising because of the livestock guardian dogs’ presence; not surprising, however, because it is mating season for skunks and they are on the move.
A few years back, during the day, there was a skunk sniffing about under some pines in the lower pasture. It was evident from its movements and from its awareness  (or lack thereof) of its surroundings, that this creature knew it had the advantage.
