We had a nice amount of rain in the spring after planting and the hay seed germinated nicely. We had almost no rain all July and a lot of it wilted and shrivelled up under the standing barley. Our seed salesman said to be hopeful as long as it started nicely in the spring even though it looked dead the roots should still be alive. We had some rains after harvest and it started to perk up again. Yesterday we got over a foot of snow than it blew very hard overnight from the south and most of it melted.

We already grow enough corn for half our milk cow feed.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
