Over 1,000 Articles Now On AgWired
I knew another milestone was fast approaching for AgWired but I didn’t catch it until I went past it. This post is number 1,002!

Whatever it is, there is no shortage of information or topics.

It may not look a lot like Christmas yet but George W. has a tree for the White House. The National Christmas Tree Association helped get it picked out. This is a nice looking tree.
Historic World Ag Expo
They claim it’s still number one after 39 years and the name is certainly fitting. World Ag Expo just wants you to know a little of the history. I’m hoping to find out all about it myself next year and “blog it.” If you’re interested in being the exclusive sponsor of AgWired coverage of the show just contact me now for the cost.

American Royal Kicks It Into High Gear
The 107th American Royal is in full swing and in fact the PRCA Rodeo is scheduled in Kemper Arena in Kansas City on Oct. 27 – 29! I was on site this past weekend so I’ve got a few images to share. Maybe there’ll be time to go spend a day at least. This is one busy place this month and next!

Flame That Flu Away
I haven’t said much about avian flu because I just don’t really know much about it. However, when you’ve got one of these flame shooting poultry house sanitizers we may just not have to worry too much! I like propane (I just wish it were cheaper) and here’s a great use for it. In fact, if you want to see a video of Flame Engineering’s Red Dragon Poultry House Flame Sanitizer just look here (9.1MB WMV).
