GOD first...Heavenly Father, we, who are still unable to find answers on how to pray, we know there are so many ways. All we need to do is simply open our hearts and pray no matter what our needs are. Pray in the dark, the brightest sunlight, with somebody, in solitude, or while in silent places. Our voices will be heard because we know You will hear us no matter where we are or what we're doing. Listen to us Lord when we pray in the name of our dear Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. You work in wondrous ways. 11/06/2024 01:53 PM

Home game against Shiner this Friday

Last chance to watch the 2024 Wildcat football team at home will be on Friday, Nov 8. Yorktown will face Shiner in their final district game. The Comanches started the season with a three game losing streak, falling to Hallettsville, Rice Consolidated, and Poth before winning six consecutive games. Currently, they are 4-0 in district play having defeated Louise in a shutout win last week, 6v Shiner does not post stats to MaxPreps so it is difficult to have current statistical information to report on individual players however the team is ranked 11 in 2A Division II standings. They are returning seven offensive and eight defensive starters from last year's squad that advanced to 2A Division I Area Finalist. Dave Campbell’s Football Magazine predicted the Comanches as the frontrunner in District 15 2A DII, taking advantage of a sea- soned team and having dropped down a division from previously. Standout for the Comanches is Preseason Defensive MVP, linebacker Kyle Adamek. 11/06/2024 01:53 PM

To graze or not to graze: Johnsongrass considerations

To graze or not to graze: Johnsongrass considerations

Contrary to what some people believe, it is surprisingly common for folks to graze cattle and other livestock on Johnsongrass. To many this productive plant provides high quality “free” forage. But of course, there is always the risk of prussic acid (or cyanide, HCN) poisoning. There are many ranchers here in DeWitt County that graze cattle on Johnsongrass each year. Most understand the dangers of prussic acid once we get into the hot dry summer months, and in the fall when first frost occurs. I do occasionally get reports of ranchers losing a few head of cattle to prussic acid poisoning. I also get many phone calls each year with questions related to grazing Johnsongrass and the potential for prussic acid. 10/30/2024 06:21 AM

Most of us as Christians know that our faith in Jesus Christ is enough to overcome the tragedies that, at some time, will affect us. Then again, is our faith that strong? Many of us will lose earthly possessions but many of us understand they are only temporary anyway. 10/30/2024 06:21 AM
