[AT] Some ads from the 10/13 Lancaster Farming

Sat Oct 13 23:14:08 PDT 2007

Mike and Larry,

These are always fun ads to read.  I guess when I read this particular one I
got hung up not so much on the low number "50" (which, like you're saying,
is an incredibly low number for a piece of equipment nearly thirty years
old) but on the whole phrase "50 original hours."  I've been wondering what
is an "original hour" and what other kinds of hours might there be?  For
example, is there such a thing as an "un-original hour" or should it be
"non-original hour."  At any rate the only kind of hour I know anything
about is the sixty-minute kind ... although I have to say that lately it
seems that someone has drained a lot of the time out of them as they now
seem to be only about half as long as they used to be.

Power King 1973 with 50 original hours snow plow disc Earth plow
weights, as new, Serial #27922. Monmouth Co., N.J. Nights (609)
259-7310. [Another one - 50 hours? I find that a little hard to believe.]

I know what you mean, Mike.  That's a bit incredible, particularly since
hour-clocks were not available on those tractors until the late 80's.  Maybe
they mean that the after market clock shows 50 hours since being installed.
