Fio has been contacted by a rancher from whom Jason Tindall, the scamming handyman, stole two expensive saddles, and she learned that Tindall is a petty crook who cons and steals his way around the country. Just as he had presented himself as being as expert handyman, telling Fio and Husband that he'd worked in construction since he was thirteen and his father owned Viking Fence, he told the rancher that he was an expert horse trainer with contacts out the wazoo.
Fio will, of course, use all of this in a book someday, but right now, she wants to spread the word:
DO NOT HIRE JASON TINDALL!

Castrating Calves
In her research for realism in her current book in which the hero is a rancher, Fiorella has learned far more about cattle than she ever wanted to know. Did you know that there are three general methods of castrating the little bulls--knives, bands, and squeezers?
It's usually done when the calves are five to ten weeks old and not only improves the meat, but insures that only the best bulls breed.
Put that information in your factoid file.
