I agree My Uncle had a 400 who"s key switch went intermittent. One day it sputtered to "on" just after he went to his shift job, and after driving the 400 hot out of the field. It was in reverse, it had FH 3-16 plow raised on the back of it, and it was in reverse. The sputtering switch sparked the ignition system and sent a spark to a cylinder with fuel in it. The thing actually started. It made 5 passes in the yard , going round and round in ever widening circles. A rear tire hit a RR tie and sent it off into the brush behind the buildings. It mowed down about 8 2 inch saplings and came back home to smash into the tack shead. This frame building was pushed off its foundation by the plow. The tractor"s FH lower links climbed the foundation and lifted a rear tire off the ground. It sat there grinding a hole in the ground till there was no more dirt to move. My Aunt Ruth Heard the tractor running in the yard about 10 minutes later, and went out to find the incredible reality. She twisted on the switch some and it stopped. Needless to say there was a similar sight (and expression on the face) for my Uncle. There were no kids around the area, and it was the switch. JimN

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
