Hello From Ottawa: Getting In Touch With Farming At The Canadian Agriculture Museum
After my very interesting introduction to sheep shearing and all sorts of wool processing techniques I had a chance to link up with David Sutin who is the Communications, Marketing and Farm Operations Manager for the Canada Agriculture Museum.

David explained to me that the gestation period of cows is very similar to that of humans: 9 months.

Buy Cotton, Kill a Chipmunk: Great Benefits of Using Organic Cotton Baby Clothes
A lot of people have said that if you would like to get rid of chipmunks, the best thing to do would be to soak some cotton balls in bacon fat and place them in areas where chipmunks go.
