J D Seller is right in that you are hoping to get an old tractor to perform like a modern one and it just is not going to work. I own several antique tractors and I enjoy them but when it comes to using them for things like bush hogging I leave them in the shed and grab a more modern one with live pto and power steering Those Ferguson 20 and even the 30 models were much like the Ford N series tractors and a great tractor in their day but that was 75 years ago and they have outlasted their utility. You should have done more research before you bought it.
I buy and sell used farm tractors and equipment and I do run into some novice buyers from time to time. I am reminded of a man who came to look at a tractor that I had on my lot. He looked my tractor over and drove it around he was pleased with the power steering and the fact that it had a 3pt hitch and live pto. When he heard my price he thought it was reasonable. He then asked me if I would take a trade and I said sometimes and it depends on what it is and how much the owner thought it was worth. He than told me that he had a Farmall H and he had paid $3850 for it and he thought he should get that on trade. I told him I was not interested in it at any price and if it was so good why was he trading it. Well he said it did not have a 3 pt hitch , no live pto and no power steering. Why, I asked him would I or anyone else want it?
My point is that these novice hobby farmers often buy tractors without checking to see if they are going to be of any practical use to them. IT IS A FARM TRACTOR SO IT MUST BE WHAT I NEED!

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
