Seems to me that the only ones making good on the use of chemicals are the makers and peddlers. We still get less for a ton of grain than we did in the depression and we could pay for a new W6 with the earnings from 10 acres of rye in '45. How long would it take you to pay for a 40 hp. tractor today? How many acres? Has the promises and myths of higher yields really paid off?

I am still paying my taxes and the raisin' the family mainly with the fruits of 8 hp. tractors. (but I am weird).
