My town had the Nehls brothers. Spelled so,etching like that. They were both in their 80s for a long time, lived up on the hill where the rich folk were building ever closer. They had maybe 5 acres. Grew vegetable shoots and sold them in spring. Probably had some eggs for sale.
When they died the city took over the land, made a park of ot with their name on it. Had an auction to clean the place out. The house never had paint inside it, the soot was a 1/4 inch deep instead. They never had indoor plumbing. They. Owed lawn with a belly mount mower on their offset small IHC tractor. A or b or whichever those little offsets are. The mower was homemade by them. It was a road grader blade on a shaft, spun by a belt drive off the pulley. There was no guard or sheet metal, you just sat on the tractor with your feet pretty much over the top,of that spinning blade.....
And so on and so forth, the 2 brothers just lived like that their whole life. The auction musta maybe been in the early 90s, wasn't way back on the old days or anything.....

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
