These days in my old age I don't do much hay anymore and my equipment is on the old side. I start my season every year with my smallest field, just two acres and nearby. I was planning to bale most of it yesterday, (the heaviest part gets a lot of shade), so mid morning I got the baler out to service and test it as usual. It tied one bale, then the twine was stuck on the bill hooks. Investigating, I found I had no twine! Zero! and the cut ends had pulled a few scrap pieces into the knotters. I remembered then that last year when I was done I had "loaned" my twine to someone, but I couldn't remember who. I checked the nearest source in town and they had what I have been using, 9000 poly. I also checked with a friend nearby. He had 9600 poly and it would save me the trip to town. I picked it up, threaded the baler and started feeding hay into it. IT WOULD NOT TIE. Both knotters had three different problems that I could identify, and I knew from memory the adjustment for each of them. I jumped in my roadster and drove to town and got a bundle of 9000 poly, tied it to the cut-off 9600, and it went back to tying every knot perfectly.

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Auction Musings - by Dave Gohl. I was thinking the other day about all the auctions I've been to in the last few years. There've been many. Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
