[AT] Manure spreaders

[Dick Day]

TSC carries the Loyal brand of acreage spreader.  25-bu in size, it's easy
to use (can be pulled by ATV or garden tractor w/10hp min.)  We have 3
stalls and this really handles that size very well.

We looked at all spreaders this size and this one will handle anything you
throw at it. Many of the others tell you not to let twine go through their
spreaders, this one handles everything.

We used to have an older New Holland spreader that was really more capacity
than we needed so we sold that and got this smaller one.
