    Chopping corn in 2008

    Going down the last row that year. The 966 chopped corn and haylage for many years for us and never let us down . Almost look like advertising pictures from a IH brochure.

    A tractor I should have never sold

    35 years ago when I was young and dumb ( compared with now and I am old and dumb) A picture of my 530 J.I.Case 530 Diesel triple range tractor. I was too young and dumb and short on cash to have known better than to deal this great little tractor away. It was in marvellous condition and I...

    Out using one of my favourite Case tractors today

    Since we quit shipping milk, I don’t have very many jobs for some of my tractors anymore. And it’s a real treat to get the opportunity to get one out in the field. Over the years I have square bales hay , cut hay , spread manure, cultivated, raked hay , pulled the disc harrow , seed drill and...

    2026 marks 40 years , since IH was folded into CaseIH

    The thread about a retirement of a 40 year parts man got me thinking. How can it be 40 years next year since IH , and Case became CaseIH . My local dealership survived the name/brand change from IH to CaseIH. I had bought a new IH 584 tractor in 1984. In 1987 I sold that tractor and bought...

    David Brown 990 and 950

    What are the differences if any, between the DB 990 and the earlier DB 950 ? We had a red DB 950 and it was a very good tractor. And for a few years DB offered the 990 in red also, but later all of the DB tractors became white coloured.

    Sad day for IH

    On November 26 1984 International Harvester was bought up by Case . And the new company CaseIH was born . I picked this picture and information up from social media. I thought the first CaseIH branded tractors hit the market in 1986. I had a IH model 584 2wd that I had bought new, but decided...

    In search of a cooling fan for a JD mower

    My son cuts grass for an elderly gentleman, that has a rather odd older John Deere commercial style lawn mower. This mower has a Yanmar diesel engine and it’s liquid cool. Now the problem is the cooling fan which was made of plastic had gotten brittle and broke apart. Now John Deere no longer is...

    Tractor collection

    One of our neighbors has a very nice collection of tractors, and invited folks in to visit last evening This was stored inside, so it made getting photos a bit tricky. And pictures I got don’t do justice to the quality of the equipment. The small square baler and forage harvesters behind it...

    How many have bought the same tractor twice?

    I bought this tractor brand new sometime around 1993 I think, but I am not absolutely certain. I kept it until 2014, and put 8,000 hours on it. It is a 5649 Ford with a Swartz’s built loader, branded by Ford as the 7411 loader. I traded it on a new Kubota MX 135 with loader in 2014. Still have...

    Had to rearrange my toy box

    Finished up covering a field with manure and got it all worked under. Next job was to find my corn planter. It wasn’t that I didn’t know where it was, it is just that it’s always stored at the very back of the shed. With any luck , some patience and perseverance, I will be able to make my IH...

    Another stinking day on this job

    Someone once said “as long as you keep livestock, you’ll have dead stock”. And indeed this is correct, but I never heard anyone say, as long as you keep livestock, you’re going to have to spread manure!

    Another day, a new problem

    While out working dirt with my high speed tillage piece, called a “Terradisc “, it suddenly became unhooked from the tractor. The extendable links on the tractor’s 3 point hitch arms actually came right off.i looked at the hitch, nothing seemed a miss, latch locks were closed. I opened the...

    Tractor and Farm talk

    Am I mistaken? Or did this forum used to be titled only Tractor Talk ? Now Tractor and Farm Talk. I have been scolded in the past because I had posted a topic about doing something on the farm like stacking bales of straw in my barn with my skid steer or some such thing, and being told that my...

    Case 930 on the spreader

    January 2, and weather is more like March 2. Had the 930 out spreading some brown gold. Bit chilly on the open tractor, but that’s what coats and beards are for. I really like this tractor for spreader duty, good choice of gears, and plenty of power

    Opinions on 2366 CaseIH,23 years old,U got 1 ?

    Hardly old enough to be yesterdays equipment, but not exactly new anymore . I have been sniffing the market, and would be interested in hearing what others say about this model machine. 300 acres would be a big year for me.

    Dry hay in September? Easier this year than dry hay in June ,July or August for us this year, it just seemed to rain every second day. All this being said, I hit onto some perfect weather over the Labour Day weekend and made over 300 round bales. And last week the forecast called for 7 days...
