[AT] cold Farmall

[Len Rugen]

We had old flat bottomed oil pan, on really cold mornings, the ashes 
were removed from the wood stoves and put under the cold H.  There 
wasn't really any open flame, but a few glowing coals.  Any oil drips 
would sizzle and hiss.  We moved it before we tried to start it in case 
the carb dribbled fuel, as it always did when  choked.

I also remember a fear of getting stuck on muddy evenings.  If we did, 
we had to get it out or it would freeze in overnight.  We only had one 
tractor until the summer I was in 5th grade.
