John, I had a terrible time with my garden this year also. Planted seeds Memorial Day weekend. Treated sweet corn germinated well, but robins plucked a lot of it out and had to replant where they pulled it. Planted peas and nothing came up. Planted them again about two weeks later and got about 50% germination. Planted green beans and 0 germination. Round 2 I bought treated seed and replanted. Maybe 10% germination. Tried a third time and have about 60% germination. The week after M Day we planted our nursery plants. 5 of 12 tomato plants died. 7 of 12 cauliflower plants died. 3 of 12 pepper plants died. Strange thing is that our cabbage, broccoli, brussel sprout, and celery plant did great. Got the tators in real late, but they are doing very well. Had to plant our summer squash and cuks twice also. Sun flowers came up spotty but the pumpkins planted with them all came up. We also had a bumper crop of volunteer dill every where. pulled bunches of it out and still have bunches. It however is way ahead of our cuks that we raise to make dill pickles. Every box we planted had triple 15 mixed into the soil. I blamed my problems on lack of sunshine, and cold and wet soil. Loren

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
