Cmore: Got to plant my first corn with a new cyclo at 33 years of age in 1975. I had planted corn for about 6 years before that with an older unit. That was precisely why I got to plant corn at a young age, I could make straight rows. I had a young lad with farm background working for me. His father was an excellent tractor operator. This young man was a good worker and for the most part a good tractor operator. I tried everything imagionable to get that young man to plant corn in straight rows. That fall he went to University, some 120 miles away, met a young lady, so he wanted to find a summer job near where he was at. He phoned one night, advised he was sending a resume to an aquaintance of mine, could he use my name as reference. I advised he could do that, but questioned what might happen if Mr. P asked if he could plant straight rows. I was at a grain producers meeting some 2 weeks later and yes, Mr P did ask. He got the job, and his first asignment was plant 800 acres of corn with a 966, 6 row cyclo and chemical saddle tanks on tractor doing herbacide at same time. He did plant corn in straight rows finally. I guess my 656 with 4 row cyclo and no spraying equipment didn't chalange him enough.
