Years ago I was going to haul a truck load of hogs to the stock yards 80 miles away in S.St. Paul, Mn. Pa asked me if I would have room to take 4 of his sheep along. Sure. So we loaded the sheep first and tide a gate up and I went to my place and packed the rest full of hogs. Half way there I stopped to look back at load and saw they had gotten the gate down and were standing on top of it. The sheep were messed up pretty bad from the hogs. Took a very long time to get the gate up as their feet kept stepping through it. Once I finally got the gate out I still had to separate the sheep which took me forever and I was racing the clock as they had to be up there by I think 11:00. I got them there on time but I did not know if they would even let me unload the red (bloody) sheep. They left me unload them so that was a relief. When I got back I told him what happened. Couple weeks later when I saw Pa I asked him if he ever got his check. After a long pause he said "ya". Not one word was ever spoken about that again. So I don't know if he got paid anything or if he had to pay a tankage fee. But you could tell he blamed me and was mad at me about that episode for the rest of his life.

Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
