Like you said before 1960 , same at my uncles farm here in N/E Ohio . Since it was taters and wheat the pony power was provided by and Oliver O C 6 and a Oliver O C 3 for many years somewhere around 57 and old M showed up for a vary short stay due to the narrow ft. and was replaced with and Oliver 88 that seamed to spend a lot of time being worked on . Neighbor has a D 4 Cat a Freggy 30 and a W D 45 . All tillage was done with the crawlers the planting was done with the O C 6 and all cultivating and hilling on both farms was done with the O C 3 with help from the Freggy 30 twp rows at a time , Wd 45 was used a l;ot for pulling the pipe wagon moving the irrigation pipe from field to field . in 58 a brand new Fordson super major diesel showed up and it had Powerful steering and must have come standard with built in lest break down often as like the 88 something was always wrong with it . That gave way to the 560 diesel Farmall with the onset of going from the two two row diggers and the hoard of people putting the taters in the bushel baskets and the team of men dumping those baskets on to the elevator at the storage barns to the new John Beam two row harvester. But even with the NEW 560 it was not enough to pull the harvester in the fields by it's self so the O C 6 had to help , Trucks and wagons replaced the bushel baskets and the D 4 was used as and aid to help the trucks . Even the new 4010 deere in 61 could not handle the harvester in the hills and had to be helped . Not till Sept of 63 when the new 806 arrived could just one tractor do that job .
