A couple questions if you will Loren? About how many acres do you plow each year, and how long, or how many acres can you do before having to change some major iron on your plows? I wouldn't mind maybe getting back to plowing some of our farm ground, but dang, last time I checked, moldboards, points, frogs, cover boards, etc, are all pretty expensive. If I had to take a rough guess, I would think you would have $200-250 a bottom in a plow. That wouldn't be too bad if you could get 300 acres or more out of it, but soil saver teeth are pretty cheap, and I flip them halfway through ripping and can get a season out of a set of them. All of this ground used to be plowed, when my grandpa and great grandpa used to farm it, but I'm wondering if I'll end up with more stones on top than I do with the soil saver. We have really good dirt, but very stony, and wet since we are in a river plain. Does a plow leave more of a hardpan underneath than a soil saver?

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
