[AT] How about Tractors.

[John Hall]

See if this is more of what you had in mind Gene.

Dad carried the M to the field yesterday and gave it a good working. Had
about 6 acres to roll with the culti-packer. Ground was a little soft and in
good order so it pulled pretty hard. Actually dropped over a quart of oil.
With temps in the 70's springtime is just around the corner. Can't hardly
wait to get in the field. Pretty soon it'll be time to put the cultivators
on one of the Super A's and bed up some garden.

Oh, yeah, had to buy a battery for the 4020 last week.

And the baler needs to go in the shop to have the knife
adjusted/replaced/sharpened.

Need to put a starter gear in dads DC Case.

Got to pick up a a set of rear sweeps for the Super A cultivator.

And dad just sent our last IH 450 automatic plow to a dealership to sell it
for him. Only tobacco farmers plow around here anymore. Everyone else is
no-till.
First time in my life there is not a plow on the farm.

Yeah Gene, I'd say there is plenty of tractor related stuff going on around
here. How about your house?

John
