I don't remember exactly, but I'm guessing I was about 7-8 when Dad had me pulling grain or bale wagons with the Ford 8N. There was always someone in the field nearby. In the spring I would pull a spike toothed drag/harrow behind Dad who was pulling a disk/harrow or field cultivator. By the way, we just called them a drag, a disk, or a digger. In late 1956, Grandpa bought a brand new John Deere 60 and plow. First tractor on the farm with power steering, live PTO and live hydraulics.. I was 10. He told me that was my tractor. Took me out in the field with the new hydraulic lift plow, 3-14's. made a few rounds with me, then told me, your on your own. Plowed a lot of ground with that 60. Although, there was usually someone else, Dad with his 1950 A and 3-14's and one of my uncles with the 51 B and 2-14's. By the way, my sister still has the 8N, another sister had Dad's A, my cousin has the 51 B, and I own the 56 60.
