Message to our readers concerning COVID-19
To all of our beloved NTFR readers,
Our community is grappling with the unprecedented challenges of COVID-19. As many local businesses make the very difficult decision to close their doors or go to delivery or pick-up services only, our magazine also faces disruption of delivery for our April 2020 issue of NTFR. Please keep in mind we offer free electronic subscriptions. To sign up, email [email protected] or call 940-872-5922. The April issue will be going up on the website very soon, so keep an eye out at www.ntfronline.com.
Please check your local convenience stores, grocery stores and farm stores as we will attempt to double up on magazines at the businesses that are remaining open. As always, you are more than welcome to come by our office at 200 Walnut Street in Bowie, Texas, to pick up your issue.
Our thoughts and prayers remain with all of those who have been impacted and affected. We hope that as the anxiety and stress unfolds in our current situation, our magazine and the articles within it can bring you some happiness during these difficult times. As always, we appreciate and thank each and every one of our readers. For any questions or concerns, please email [email protected] or call 940-872-5922.
Sincerely,
The NTFR Magazine team

Babies are tucked away in every nook and cranny. Many ranchers across Wyoming have baby animals popping up all over this time of year.

Another load of grain in to keep feeding the calves until the green grass can really start popping.

Spring has sprung and hopefully the rains will continue where our country will heal from the previous droughts and our grasses will thrive. We are especially hopeful for the Panhandle of Texas where our neighbors and friends have been dealt a deadly blow to homes, ranges, livestock, and people. Keep them in your prayers as they will not be able to return to normal for many years if at all. Having lost their ability to benefit from this great cattle market is a double whammy for all of them.
Now is the time of year when we need to take care of business as it relates to our new calves that have been hitting the ground this spring. First and foremost is vaccinating for Blackleg followed by deworming with a white wormer and the IBR complex. Blackleg is a soil-born disease and with pastures extremely short this spring our calves have been grazing the green grass as soon as it shows itself, making them even more vulnerable to picking contaminates from the soil.
To read more, pick up a copy of the April issue of NTFR magazine. To subscribe by mail, call 940-872-5922.
