    State of the farm address!! LOL Long!!

    I have really enjoyed your posts on this site. Your common sense approach to farming and life is missing in so much of society today. Good luck with your new approach and keep us posted when you can.

    oldest tractor you may have owned since new...

    I have the 1941 Farmall B that dad bought new for $650.00. This replaced a Fordson bought in early 30's.

    Dang nammit ennaways!

    It will cost you North of $4000 to replace the tailgate on a Ford F-150 with a back up camera in it. Very good market for these in the cities in our area. Takes them almost no time to steal one.

    Really

    Is either a C or Super C. You can buy a very nice one in our area with good rubber for $1000 - $1200.

    Old men driving people away from things!!!

    I think part of the problem today is that we depend upon e-mail instead of the phone. What we put in writing can be very easily mistaken since there is usually more to the situation than is printed in that sentence. Sometimes what we put in writing is not an expression of our real intent. It...

    My Kids had a great weekend!! Was tough for me in a way!!

    JD you handled this the right way and they will thank you for it in the future. Two weeks ago I fully retired after 51 years helping others manage their money. 27 years ago my son joined me and my youngest daughter 15 years ago. We have been working as a team and I have been gradually...

    How much rain can a kingdom get?

    30 miles West of Madison there has been 5.68 inches since October 1st and 46.12 inches since April 26 when we got our new electronic rain gauge. Have never seen so much mud.

    Tired old man tonight!!! LOL Proud of Grand daughter/husband

    Great story JD, your family understands that hard work really does pay off and working together makes one feel really good. Too many of our young people today ha ve never had any responsibility in their life and don't know how to work. Dave Ramsey would be proud of these young people.

    Deere 212 or Ford YT 16H?

    Check out a JD 140. They are a 14 HP Kohler with a hydo transmission. Many attachments available and in our area you can buy a good one for $500 to $700. They are a much better unit than a 110 or 212 model.

    Supper A on CL

    It would be tough to get much more than $1000 for that tractor in our area. Most all of the common letter series IH and JD have come down in last few years and compared with 5-10 years ago are selling for 50 to 75% less than they were. Unless you are restoring a family tractor, it makes no...

    2019.09.18 "Extra" Pic

    Allis came out with this chopper in late 40's, I think this was the first cylinder cut chopper. All others at the time had the old style flywheel style cut like used on old silo fillers. Allis was ahead of its time with this machine.

    I have a D-17 and a WD-45 Allis. Two of my favorite old tractors to use. Brings back a lot of memories of growing up on the farm in the 50"s
