IowaJohn, I have a picture taken two years ago of an Oliver 88 in beans that were darned near to the top of the rear wheels. (13.6-38) This year in that same location the beans maybe go up to the axles. Come to think of it, I should drive the old girl out to the same spot tomorrow just for a comparison pic. I might be surprised. I'm 17 miles NE of Storm Lake and I'm estimating 42 bushel beans and 150 bushel corn. The average on my farm is 48 and 185. I have one rented 60 that's at least 25% drowned out. I saw it from the air a week ago. The herbicide program worked OK because all I saw was bare ground in the drowned spots but there's no corn there either. One 178 acre bean field looks great from the ground but the view from the air shows dozens of little bare spots where small puddles of water stood too long last spring.Jim

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
