Being from Canada, I have passed through a fully metricated school system, and I still prefer imperial measure for many things in the field. The lab is another story.... And don't tell me the probe missed mars because some scientist was using the old system of units. That's crap. Scientists have used metric for 50 years or more....arount the world. But to me, Imperial measure is easier to use in the field because it relates to something. A foot is a foot. We wouldn't all convert 12 lengths of our boot into 4 meters for some rough measure would we? It is also much easier, when working with tools, fastners, etc to use standard measure. That bolt that looks like 5/8 standard might leave one searching for a 15 or 16 or 17 mm. It's just plain annoying. One of the odd quirks I find is with spraying. (Mabey just me) I always figure rates in liters per acre. I guess Trudeau never saw that one coming did he RAB?
As for the tire, it's probably a 10-20, converted to useful measure. Mabey a 12-20. I would guess about 25-30 psi. Pump it up until is carrys the load, and set the other one the same. Just don't run them too soft, or they wil scallop out. More air is better, but too much will make a rough ride, but since it's a Belarus, you probably won't notice anyway. We used to have a 520A. Crude is not the word......speachless.... Good luck. Rod

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
