I spent a great deal of time on relatives’ general farms in NE Indiana until I graduated HS in 61, and then I was gone! The only wagons we had for hauling grain when I was still around were the old (still had wood spoke car wheels on them) flat wagons (same ones we used for hay baling, without the sideboards) with about 1 foot sideboards---IIRC, we could haul 100 – 110 bushels of grain. As I and the cousins left, I think my grandfather and uncle (who farmed together) did buy a gravity feed wagon, that was modern back then!<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span class=DefaultFontHxMailStyle><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Gene<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Kenneth Gene Waugh<span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span class=DefaultFontHxMailStyle><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p><div style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='border:none;padding:0in'><b>From: </b><a href="mailto:bill@apluscomputer.com">Bill Brueck</a><br><b>Sent: </b>Monday, October 11, 2021 10:24 AM<br><b>To: </b><a href="mailto:at@lists.antique-tractor.com">Antique Tractor Email Discussion Group</a><br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [AT] Combing soybeans in Iowa</p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span class=DefaultFontHxMailStyle><span style='font-size:14.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for sharing, good videos.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The guy knows how to load a grain cart.
