Those narrow front tractors also employed a high rear axle either through the use of tall tires or a drop axle arrangement such as in the Allis Chalmers WC and WD design. This enabled us to cultivate until the corn was high enough to canopy out and choke off the weeds on its own. Took longer to canopy out in those days because we were still addicted to horse width rows of 42" or so. Those old narrow front tractors all had some way to set the rear wheels out wider so as to straddle two rows. Either by sliding the wheels out/in on a solid bar axle or reversing the discs or a combination of that. Rear wheels were set in for plowing and out for cultivating. Thus the advent, in some cases, of spin-out disc wheels. Those old Allis front mount two row cultivators were the easiest to put on and take off. Drive in, insert three pins and go. Took less than 10 minutes and 9 of those minutes were spent attaching the rear gangs. BTDT (;>))
