Here in my county (central MI), the state highways get mowed twice a year, with the grass parts of the median fully mowed (some parts are woods). The outer part of the highway is usually mowed 2 passes wide, 24' the first time it is mowed, usually in late May or early June. The Second time it is mowed, usually mid to late August, it is mowed as close to the right of way fence as they can get, where there isn't woods. But, the state specifies when and how much to mow, based on their budget. It always gets at least 2 passes inside and outside, but some years nothing more than that. Paved county roads are mowed twice a year, 1 pass early in summmer, and 2 passes in late summer, at which time all of the gravel roads receive 1 pass as well. I have found that if you mow it tight to the ground on flat land, and do a nice job, usually whoever has a house right there will mow a little bit more every year, keeping things cleaner year round. It also makes it nicer in the winter when we cut trees, that you aren't wading around in waist deep grass in and out of the ditch.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
