Healthy soil and sustainable growing

[uriel <uriel@nasalam.org>]

We have a LOT of white tailed deer in SW Missouri -- so many the state 
lets hunters bag several every year.  I see them frequently, but so far 
none have ever eaten a thing in the garden.  Assuming they don't just 
like me because I have "No Hunting" signs around the land, I think it's 
because I use urine (my own) around the garden.  Rabbits stay away too.
