Surplus farm houses

Over the last year and a half in Perth County we have had the surplus farm house issue visited twice. Most recently about a month ago county council decide to turn the motion down for the second time. The issue we divide people easier than picking your favorite hockey team. I don't believe there is a right or wrong answer but my problem is if it has been defeated twice why in after only a month of being defeated is it back on the table. This almost feels like a federal election. Democercy has to be considered some where along the line perhaps we have to have the best 3 out of 5. In tough economic times does our elected people have nothing better to do. It is like the dog that has chased a cat up the tree and won't move until it comes down(alot of wasted energy and resources for no reason). Anyway just wanting to hear other thoughts on the severance of surplus farm houses. Yes or No

I have several farm houses that I rent out and can see the merits of both sides of this argument. I do not think I want to sell mine . I would like to rent them out to some one that would take care of them. I am not interested in making a lot of money from them I would just like to breakeven, and have my building maintained.As renters come and go the the building seems to decline. I can not believe there are not people out there that would fulfill this goal, but they seem to be few and far between in my experience. It would be nice to be able to be to participate in some program for the distressed or under privileged that would help ensure payment and find the right tenants.

Not so happy landlord

Hog markets rebound despite ample pork supplies - CME

Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) cattle and hog futures climbed on Tuesday on position squaring between the Christmas and New Year holidays, Reuters reported, citing analysts. CME February live cattle settled 1.500 cents higher at 230.475 cents per pound, and March feeder cattle settled 2.900 cents higher at 344.575 cents per pound. CME benchmark February lean hog futures rose 0.975 cent to 85.450 cents per pound. Cattle futures were buoyed as packers worked quickly with a short week ahead of the New Year holiday, according to an analyst note.

Lean hogs bounced back after falling on Monday, with the US Department of Agriculture's (USDA) quarterly hogs and pigs report last week showing larger numbers than expected, analysts said.

Last week’s Alberta fed cash-to-futures basis was reported at -$19.83/cwt, weaker than the five-year average. The Canfax steer and heifer prices closed the week steady to $2/cwt lower. The largest week-over-week price decline was on lightweight calves, with prices $9–10/cwt softer. Last week, feeders weighing over 800 pounds traded $1–4/cwt stronger. From their lows in late November, Alberta 550-pound steers have rallied $15/cwt, while same-weight heifers
