Of all the Farmall tractors in this neighborhood back in the late 1940's and 1950's I only knew of two Cubs around here. Both were rarely used as one of the farmers had a team of horses he preferred to use although he did use his Cub occasionally to mow grass hay with it's little mid-mounted sickle mower. Another one was a small time hog farmer and painter who worked in town and used his to move farrowing houses around and to pull a small cart with feed. We did the hay for him as he had a couple of small hills between his hay field and the barn and he couldn't get even a small wagon load of baled hay up the hill so it wasn't even used there. I don't know how they were generally used but most farmers around here had a 113 or 123 cu. in. Farmall for even the lightest of work in those days. I'm not knocking the Cubs but they must have had an extremely small list of what they would be suited for in real farming applications, Hal.
