For years I pulled a wagon with that size bee on it behind a 1974 Chevy half ton truck with a 350 and aytomsatic. I would load the truck with about 60 bushels and put the filled wagon behind, About 10 mile one way. No problem but I had extra heavy springs un der that truck. And speed limit is 25 MPH on wagons unless licened as trailers with licence tags on each wagons. And truck would not shift into high gear untill you were over 20 MPH so needed to keep speeds between 20 and 25 MPH to stay within the law. I have seen plenty of wagons loaded full being pulled at 35+ MPH and wipping all over the road and driver not paying any atention to the wagon taking up 2 lanes of the road. Did not have the hills like some of you have, Remember trucks of that time did not have as big as trucks of today, just had factory sixe of 2:15-75x15 tires. The 70 GMC had only a 307 engine in it and did not have the extra spribgs under it and just the standard bickup bed so did not usually load that truck when pulling the wagons loaded. I have seen plentu of tractors pulling multi numbers of giant wagond that thw wagons took about more than the width of a 2 lane road. Now I very seldon see anything except semi tractor-trailer with 3 of those outfits setting on the road wating for the grain car to fill them.

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
