Many years back my area was a big tater growing area . My uncles was one of the as you would say today a BTO . I spent many a days in the tater field from spring plowing thru harvest . The only job that i did not do was spraying or run the harvester . i remember the days of the one row digger then the new two row digger and the piles of bushel baskets and the old grainery up in the bank barn that was changed over to keep all the tater forks in to the day the vary first harvester arrived and the days of all the hired hands and bushel baskets gave way to self unloading wagons and trucks . We usually got around 8-9 ton on the old trucks per load and usually four trucks to the acre and sometimes if the weather was good then five and a bit . We started planting early if mothe nature would allow . Back then we would have already been plowing if the weather was with us . When it was wet and cold it would put us way behind and when we were able to get going then it was round the clock non stop plowing . Usually four or five tractors in the field as a couple neighbors would help . Up till 58 everything was done with crawlers then the 88 Oliver came on the seen and the first John Bean two row harvester . For us we tried to start planting around mid april .

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
