Just been reading a post below, about teaching the wife to rolling hay, which leads me to my own dilemma. I have just gotten out of the hospital yesterday after an operation and a five day stay which has left me incapacitated for the next few weeks I have found that I need to leave the tilling and planting to others. Everyone one is volunteering to run the big tractors, just hop in and go, no thoughts on gear election ground speed, engine rpm's or fuel consumption. Just git an go!
One son planted about 15 acres of beans, he had never done it before, getting his instructions, by phone from my wife as she relayed them from me while I am flat on my back in the hospital. How did he do? Only time will tell. He was encouraged because the beans kept disappearing from the seed boxes so they must have at least hit the ground and rolled under the soil.
Then my wife said that they had decided no to plant the next ten acres because it was too wet. Here is my chance to make a fools mistake and I took the opportunity to heart and jumped right in, how is it, "I asked" that one field was dry enough to plant and the next one not? Her reply, "most of it was dry but it was a little too damp on the one end near the bottom". I could not keep my big mouth shut " why didn't you just plant the dry part and leave the bottom alone" I asked. "I knew that I would do something wrong", "she replied" from now on you can do it yourself.
I had put that poor girl in a difficult position but I was not wise enough to keep my mouth shut when her decision was not the one I might have made. I have tried to tell her that she made the right decision but she has chosen to ignore my attempts at an apology.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
