    Turmeric paste for skin cancer

    Hello, :frow I don't get over here very often, but I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with using turmeric to treat skin cancer? Not for me, but for my dog. I have been reading up on it and they say it has real potential for skin cancer (and stomach/colon cancers, anything it...

    Skin Allergy/Irritation in Dogs

    I have a 9-year-old pitbull that has suddenly developed some kind of skin allergy/irritation, possibly dry skin? I took her to the vet and we at first assumed she must be allergic to the Christmas tree because this was the first time I had gotten a pine and that was the only thing new or...

    WV DNR Website - You can now buy your license online!

    I don't think they had this service last year, at least I didn't notice. I always get on there to check the trout stocking schedule and found this today. Usually I procrastinate and forget to get my license, or I'll get to Walmart and forget to bring my DL. This is super convenient and if you...

    TP Scam!

    I'm sure everyone by now has noticed that most companies are downsizing their products so that they can keep selling them at about the same price. They knock off a couple ounces from the box, make things smaller, put less in the package... Get this, I've always bought Scott 1000 because I have...

    Do I have to (or should I) Pasturize my ACV??

    It's been 5 weeks and I think my ACV is done. It made a mother. It tastes acidic, but it's not as strong as I thought it would be. I went ahead and filtered it. So do I have to pasturize it before I bottle it or will that reduce its healthful properties? If I don't, will it degrade (or will...

    Frugal to a Fault?

    The other day, I finally broke down and bought a 3.5 gal. poultry waterer for $20. I hated to do it, it seemed like too much to spend. For 3 years I have reused empty one gallon juice bottles, drilled two holes in the bottom sides about 1" up, and set them in a $2.50 plastic oil change pan...

    Jelly from Wild Grapes

    I couldn't get any concord grapes this year since my MIL's grapes didn't do anything. But I did get my hands on a lot of wild grapes. I had to wonder if they would amount to anything, they are so small and have hardly any flesh to them. But they sure did! I was really pleased with how it...

    Toddler getting a little too up-close and personal with chickens...

    My 3 year old LOVES her chickens and has one under her arm most of the day. I am a little concerned with the likelihood of her getting parasites off of them, particularly worms!! I treat my chickens in the fall with Ivermec pour-on, a few drops on the back of the neck and toss out the eggs for...

    Getting a new horse tomorrow, fishing for name suggestions!

    I'm going tomorrow to pick up my new horse. He's a 12-year-old Tennessee Walker gelding. I got him free!!! He's a rehab horse, retired show horse, cleared for light work and to build up from there. His current owners had four horses and are downsizing to two because they couldn't afford them...
