Re: [globalnews] Der Spiegel: Fundamentalist Bush Regime Wants Crusade Against Islam; Bush Believes God Put Him in Oval Office (Long)
Targeting water treatment plants, electrical facilities? The reality of this nightmare, is that if just a small percentage of the war machine's budget, were used to clean up the leftover landmines, DU and poisoned wells THAT ALREADY remain behind from the last Gulf War, we could end many varieties of death by malnutrition because of water borne illnesses, we could set up sustainable agricultural projects, we could help people help themselves (teach-a-man-to-fish-story folks on this list are so fond of), set up rural medical centers, etc. If we used the whole budget now being spent to send our own young people off to be canon fodder and the cost of arms and deplorable new weapons of mass destruction (that our country produces and sells wholesale to places like, you guessed it (!) Iraq) then we could probably clean up all the dirty wells in third world countries providing a great foundation to end world hunger, rampant water borne illness, etc etc etc. Rather that we, the people, individually and together should resist injustice in every way that we can. Here in the US, a lot of that would look like how you vote with your dollars. That's just one solution. Blessings, Jane In My opinion one of the best ways to clean up water, either in well or in the drainage system, is to actively practice biodynamics and put the suggestions of Steiner, and all that has been developed from them, to work. Peace and prosperity, Peter.
Re: dragon lines
Dear James This below was part of your post to Roger recently - Would you be able to explain this further please (if you have the time) as it would seem that the dragon line is about where the recent rain stopped. I guess I am thinking about the possible effects of deep irrigation bores on underground energies, also there is a coal seam around oaklands that has had extensive exloration in the recent few years. I should know where Mount Elephant is but cant find a map in one piece to check it out. I'm interested in your further thoughts. Cheers Lloyd Charles The city of Albury cuts a dragon line that runs from Mount Elephant in the west and Table Top Mountain near Albury. Even today in China it is considered an offence against nature to cut through water or dragon lines. The Fon- Chei or Wind/Water man was called in, if he said that it was alright to build then the house was built, if he said no the house or structure was not built.

Lloyd-- Did you ever figure out how to utilize your brother's fish? Bob Posthuma of GeoFish is planning to be in Australia this month, I think he said with Elaine I. He is the person who got our local fishery going with a fertilizer-fish operation. He was formerly with Dramm, had a bad car accident, and then was faced with an opportunity to start his own consulting business.

Which wormwood?
Folks, I am in the process of trying to establish some 'improved' pasture for cows (in actuality improve some established pasture). The plan is to follow the herbal ley concept and plant a mixture of forbs. My question is, do all artemisia have worming properties? There are a multitude of species (and cultivars) out there. A. vulgaris, A. absinthum, A. afra, A. annua, Powis Castle, Silver Mound... Does anybody have any information or experience that might help me select which one to (or not to) establish. Information regarding herbal preferences of (and for) cattle is not very plentiful. Any other recommendations would be appreciated. We're going to try some different vetches and clovers, some trefoil, perennial peanut (arachis) amongst others. Its been raining good recently and there's only a few more weeks before the dry season kicks in. (April and May are dry, the fronts don't make it all the way down and there isn't enough daytime heating for the daily thundershowers of the summer). If we're going to get it going, now is the time (frost date is next week!). Thanks Ed P.S. Also been thinking about using a stirred yarrow prep soak to increase germination vigor. Problem is, wet seed clumps and doesn't flow through the spreader. Would the benefits of the soak be diminished if the soaked seed is allowed to dry (overnight?)?

snake peppers
Morning all, With the rain has come the cooler temps, but still it is March and many snakes are on the move for a mate. Have managed to obtain a copperhead snake which my wonderful dog killed, before it headed into the laundry. Have spent some time thinking about the right time to catch a snake, the answer as far as I'm concerned is never, but when one lands in your laundry door, then it's time to make use of it. The copperheads are numerous in these parts and have stopped me some years from working in the garden. Only want to put the pepper around the house yard and food gardens, they can have the rest of the land. Unable to bring myself to skin the snake, so have allowed the maggots, wasps and ants to remove the innards. It is at this point that I am unsure of what to do to make a pepper. Even unsure if whether or not leaving it to the insects was the right thing to do? The skin is still in good nick. Have read previous posts on ashing and have lost the attachment Cheryl Kemp sent to me on snake peppers, and the questions keep coming, such as: Once turned to ash how long is the pepper good for? Is it best to keep in ash form or potenise for storage. What colour should the ash finish at, and would burning it out on the plough disc BBQ, with a lid over it be good enough? Do I apply it around the perimeter or over the land I want protected? Any answers, experience or suggested reading would be greatly appreciated, Thanks. LL Liz

Re: Which wormwood?
I had the common wormwood, probably A. vulgaris (unsure) but it's the type wreathmakers like because it grows so tall. I say had. I thought you couldn't kill the stuff, but little by little, as they needed some, the goats would wander to the places it grew and eat on it. the horses did the same thing. I'm going to try growing it again, but on the basis of starting it somewhere the animals aren't pastured and only offering it to them rather than have them in on it free choice. It's probably best to let the cattle have it as they choose, but you'll have to replant it often if you do.

Hi Dorothy. Good to hear from you. The fish thing has gone on hold, my brother has managed to get whole fish markets for most of what he produces, and most of that is going out as live fish to the Asian restaraunt trade, so my source of fish remains has kinda dried up at the source. Dont know whether I am on the right track but I see freshwater fish as a inferior product (to use for crop nutrition) due to the fact that ocean fish have in the sea water a more full spectrum of minerals. Thats no excuse for not making use of a resource if its available! Anyway I am keeping watch on my brother in case the marketing thing changes again. I will pass Bob's info along , my brother may be interested in seeing him and everyone in agriculture should see Elaine's seminar at least once. Thanks and take care. Lloyd Charles

TJH BD peppers applied at homeopathic potencies can work well, and applied radionically with a field broadcaster pipe can be very effective too, however its easier when the birds (or any mobile pest) have an alternative venue. You also need to be mad enough at the birds to kill one for the pepper or lucky enough to find a fresh one dead (road kill). Cheers Lloyd Charles

CSP and EQIP-Please comment and send to other interested persons
Hi all, This is what I sent to folks in my area. Please read, comment and send to folks in your area. Merla * * * * * HELP SMALL GROWERS GET USDA SUBSIDIES FOR CONSERVATION--CSP and EQIP Send two emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1. Subject: Conservation Security Program--due by March 10 2. Subject: Environmental Quality Incentive Program--due by March 12 Your comment will be printed in the official record. If many small and mid-sized farmers who retail locally, and their consumers, dont write and make a direct case for these programs, they will be underfunded, unfunded and changed to only benefit large industrial growers. Some issues cut across all areas of the country and all small and mid-sized farms. The term resource of concern is different for different types of agriculture in different parts of the country. You need to let them know that you as an Idaho retail market farmer of some of the highest quality produce in the country are doing significant conservation which is economically and socially important in your community. You want the program to work for a farmer such as yourself. Such management practices as composting,, cover cropping, crop rotations, mulching, compost tea applications, conservation of sparse water resources in drought conditions, use of a gravity-feed watering system and drip irrigation, use of a solar electric system, diverse cropping, use of cold frames and other season extenders, animals integrated into your system, marketing strategies such as CSAs, Farmers Markets, Farmstands, etc., your contribution to your Farmers Market and the Markets contribution to the community, how you increase profitability with value added products, how you manage your woodlot to heat your home, how you protect your crops from deer, elk, moose, and bears with such things as New Zealand game fences. Get them to make the CSP a conservation program that works for your land and for you. If you need to understand more, there are fact sheets on www.landstewardshipproject.org and I have a draft of the CSP comment by Western SAWG and would be glad to forward it to you if you request it. Please take the time to understand this and to make comments about both of the programs. The CSP action notice is from the Land Stewardship Project landstewardshipproject.org and the EQIP action notice is from Western Sustainable Agriculture Working Group westernsawg.org.
