Don't have room nor any use for any kind of tractor right now. For years and years I hankered for old tractors, and about 20 yrs. ago, bought 2 F-20s that ran decently. One was kept on my father's farm. One day when I was visiting, I decided to hook the old girl to the Bush Hog. The meadow I chose to cut was as lumpy as they come--full of those plants that grow in clumps and make "hassocks." Well, I had used an F-20 for years when I was a teenager, and had glorious memories of roaring across the fields, ripping up sod and probably destroying a spectrum of my hearing. I LOVED the old beast. My more recent experience was sobering. The noise was still there, and the ride was atrocious. The seat goes down when the front wheels go up, and the seat goes up when the front wheels go down. The steering wheel is heavy and acts like a flywheel if the front should get caught in a furrow (watch out for thumb or forearm). There is no really comfortable place for your feet, which are either up on the axle (your knees are then in your face) or down on the transmission case (your legs then bounce against the axle). Ah, my beautiful, romantic dream of returning to farming with really old tractors was shattered into a million shards. Still, if a guy at the next plow day offers me a couple of rounds, I wouldn't say no. It's no wonder, though, that people loved the H and M, which were like going from a Ford A to a Cadillac.

I was thirteen, and Kathy (my oldest sister) was seven. At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
