CowPokes

I miss the old cartoon Cowpokes.  Used to be common in the various cattle publications.  Here's a few I found.  The one about life of hard labor is my favorite.

Post'em if you got'em

Maybe not the same, but in the same vein. I swear I've heard my wife say this!

I always thought this one summed up my operation

I used to enjoy “Worlds Worst Farmer”. I don’t know if it’s still around or not. I don’t read many paper farm magazines anymore.

I don't think there are many paper farm journals left. I used to get Delta Farm Press and Dad used to take Hoards Dairyman. Remember the Ole and Lena cartoons? I get Progressive Forage once a month and that's about it now. Progressive Farmer is too suburban now, and I don't think DFP is even a thing anymore.

I remember when I was a kid, the local vet clinic always had a clipped out cartoon from Prairie Farmer pinned to the bulletin board

I still get Delta Farm Press.  Not nearly as good as it was 20 years ago.

Is High Plains Journal still a good magazine???

Didn't realize DFP was still in print. I need to see about renewing my subscription. I'm not familiar with the High Plains Journal...

High Plains Journal was very good years ago. I have not seen one in a long time.
