 The Ruthlessness of the Heart  

By: Madeline Reid  

“The more I love you, the more I hate you.” Those are the words that I never thought I would say, especially to the woman who was my entire future. The light of my life, the beacon of light in my world filled with darkness. Except she wasn’t. With every happy moment came the dark ones. She may not have realized it, but I did. With every joke and smile exchanged, and every intimate moment shared darkness began to seep into my heart. The love I once held for her started to disappear piece by piece. As love chipped away it was replaced with a stale feeling of hatred that began to grow. I don’t know why this hatred appeared and why it persisted, but I know that I regret every minute that it filled my heart. And so, as I turned my back on the woman who once upon a time was the love of my life I reached up and rubbed the wetness out of my eye, sniffled, and stood up straight. I walked forward and never looked back.

Crop analysis- Alfalfa Hay

  Crop analysis- Alfalfa Hay By: Connor Ingham                 Alfalfa hay is a leguminous plant that is grown mainly for silage, animal feed, or for a nitrogen supplying cover crop. Alfalfa, unlike most other plants, can grow for up to five production years after the first cutting of hay is complete. Commonly, alfalfa is mixed with other types of grasses, such as timothy hay, or oats that provide wind protection and frost protection during the winter, due to alfalfa’s low height. To begin the planting process, alfalfa can be planted with just a dusting of soil, typically in well drained areas for best quality, during any summertime month. The plant will surface normally within 15 days where it will grow into stems with generally a distinctive tri leaf design. This trend will continue as the plant gains a bush like shape into the mature age (around a height of 12 inches). Once the plant is mature, purple...

Crop Analysis- Timothy Hay

  Crop Analysis- Timothy Hay By Connor Ingham             Timothy hay is a cool weather grass that prefers damp soil, mainly in northern climates with an optimal temperature range around 75 degrees. This hay variety is grown for an ideal pasture crop, animal feed, or a grass cover crop. Timothy similar to other hay species, since timothy is a perennial plant (growing for many year), although it does lessen in production over its lifespan. The best time to establish a timothy crop is during the summer months, roughly before mid-August, which allows the plant to grow to an ideal height before winter freezing sets in. A firm seed bed, free of any visible stones, an application of 8-10 pounds per acre and a seed depth of ½ of an inch will provide the best start to the plant’s life. Timothy can be planted along with other grass/hay varieties, such as clover, alfalfa, birds-foot trefoil, or Kentucky blue grass which will blend in...
