Tom, this bring up a story worth sharing on this forum. A few decades ago a propane truck slid off a snow and icy county road late one night making deliveries to folks who had run out of fuel during the storm. He slid off near a neighbor's house who happens to have a IHC 15-30 which was used on a saw mill and was in my family when new. He walked up to the farm house and asked if they had a tractor that could get him back on the road. After getting his coat and other stuff to get out in the weather the neighbor (now deceased) went out to his 15-30 tractor and threw the canvas cover off of it. It was a hand crank tractor and when he saw it he remarked to the neighbor's son that I guess I might as well go try someone else. James said just wait a minute, he cranked it over a couple of times with the switch off before turning it on and the tractor fired right up. It was a big old steel wheel thing with lugs and of course it had all the power and traction needed to get that propane truck back on the road. That old mag tractor came through when there were lots of newer stuff all around the area. The tractor still powers a saw mill when someone local needs some lumber cut for a building, Hal.

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
