I remember john deere using a four row lister planter that the front frame was made out of a rw disk and it planted in the furrow throwing the trash and sod in a hill between the furrows. this was in 1958. oliver also was working on notil planters in 1965 or 66. And allis was one of the first to use single coulters in front of the planting units. the guys that farm the 20,000 acres, I knew their uncle that started it all. His planter was a 6 row and he pulled it with a 4020. He said that was all you needed for power. I use to kid him because before he retired he was using a couple of 8630s to plant with. I believe that the big boys like it because they only have to go over it once and they are done until harvest. So they can farm several thousand acres. They couldn't do that if they plowed and cultivated. And what is really funny to me is they don't make any more money then they did when farming 400 acres. Jus twhat I've seen, John

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
