Years back my one buddy and i would go on the great Christmas tree hunt . He and i would go down to the farm and we would go up on the old strip cut spoil banks and check out the pines . This one year we had a lot of snow and it was deep enough that my truck was having a time getting thru it . We spyed some trees that looked promising. So he and i get out of the truck and the snow is kneed deep or better and we are looking down over the side of the spoil bank we decide on two trees. Out comes the chain saw and down over the bank Sid goes with saw in hand . Down go the two trees and that is when the fun started , First Sid could not get back up the bank Second off he could not drag the tree . I had to dig a couple chains out of the bed and use them to first drag the trees up the bank then darn near had to tow Sid up . What he and i were after were two trees about seven to eight foot tall , what he cut down were about 13 feet tall and a but end of about seven to eight inches in dia. . It was all we had to get them loaded and back home . They sure did not look that big standing up on top . Then the fun of getting them in the house . we dropped his off first and the two of us somehow got in the house and with some sawsall work we got it cut down enough to get it up . Then came my turn to get it in my house , my living room was a little smaller then his and we had to do some rearranging just to get it in and had to cut off five feet to get it to stand up and get the star on top . His wife and m wife were not happy with our tree hunting . The next year we both end up with trees in a box . So now it is the fight getting the BOX tree out of the attic . The getting out is not the problem as gravity is working in my favor . It is the getting it back up that is the problem the old box has seen better days .

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
