Sgt: You've already missed the boat, and may as well keep what you have. For those guys that don't believe in doom and gloom, go to an auction. I went the other day, came home with a 100 gallon, 3 point hitch sprayer, perfect 2 cylinder pistom pump, new fluid filled pressure gauge and a set of no drip nozzles still in the box, all for $10. I was the only bid.
Friend of mine went to another auction, John Deere 4400 diesel combine with a pickup reel and header half as old as combine. He threw in the first and only bid of $1,000. and came home with the combine. He said in looking it over, can't see any reason why it wont combine his wheat this summer.
The auction I was at, farm dispersal, scrap dealers bought most of it. It must have been a disappointment for the old couple. I've had a 24 blade, tandem, 3 point hitch disk, out front with a for sale sign 8 weeks now, no one has even stopped to ask. I moved it today, parked it in a planted grain field so I can mow and not have to move it. If no one inquires by time grain is 6", in the drive shed it goes. Around here 5 years ago, you couldn't leave small equipment in sight, even without a for sale sign, folks would be coming in, "Is that for sale."
For the past year the spread between rich and poor has not been so great since 1928. Now we are starting to see items not available at any price, vissions of 1929. This time will be more vicious as 95% of folks no longer have the ability to grow a garden, raise a dozen hens and raise a pig every year.
I see some of these folks saying, "What is a few extra dollars to fill up the family buggy." My friends, the family buggy is small change, compared to the fuel bill on your other family inputs. Yes the fuel bill on all those items trucked to you every week, then add on the extra fuel for producing those goods. Charlie, if gas hits $6.00 per US gallon, Canada and the USA are bankrupt.

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
