IHC Farmall H or Case VAC go reasonable cheap, can do mowing, small plow and cultivating of very large gardens. Ford Ns have lots of implements, lots of suppliers but just about as expensive as John Deeres in many places. Depends on what you mean by small farm, what you want to do and local implement dealers available. Might consider a Japanese Yanmar or JD equivalent if not mechanically inclined, Brother has some of old family equipment but uses mostly JD430 for mowing and JD950 for loader and utility work-- both Japanese sourced to JD. Sister uses Case VAC for mowing, plowing garden and disking, has access to 4 row planter for sweet corn planting, etc and uses tiller for most other gardening. IHC Farmall Cub is one of best garden tractors for its time and in Wisconsin, some other areas was sole tractor for Tobacco farmers that had large garden and some pasture, hay ground besides. IHC 140 has hydraulics and same off set cultivision, some areas have the sickle bar mounted belly mower that were used by highway depts. to mow road side ditches equipped units moderately priced and can pull a 2-14 plow, 10 foot disk and JD 14T baler. Last of JD 2 bangers can be useful, parts still available for a price and some dealers happy to work on them for you at regular shop rates. Olivers and AC WD 45 or D17 can be useful, especially the Oliver 55 and 70- but dealer support and parts may be a problem, some implements short in some areas. Do you need more than big lawnmower? Garden tractor? If you have couple acres grassland to cut- consider decent fence and 4 to 6 sheep for weed and feed duty, barbecued lamb toward winter time. Massey 35, 135 or some variation of 65 are very popular around the world, many parts of US and Canada. How old do you want to go, how much $$ and what color? RN

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
