I was out cleaning up the north side of our fence line today with the chain saw. I was cutting up some really nasty thorny crap (1-1 1/2" thorns on most). Once I got to where some of the new houses are built, the first lady called the local law enforcement because I was cutting the branches off right up on the trees, which happened to be right on the line, and some were just on their side. One tree I just cut it down because it had the thorns, and it poked me where the sun don't shine. It was a good foot on our side, but it landed in their yard because of the way of the wind and some branches over hung into their yard. I was about 3 yards over once the officer got there, yadda yadda yadda.... I guess she was upset because her husband was out of town (gone to the Packer game) and she didn't know what to do (how about come out and talk to a guy instead of getting the cops involved???) and she thought it landed on a shrib they just planted, and I didn't remove the tree from the yard yet (too big to move by hand, and I was out there with my truck, not a tractor and chain). Long story short, he just told me to basically tread lightly and make sure the home owners don't have problems with me cutting right up to the tree and making them look 1/2 decent. I talked to all the neighbors before I continued cutting and the rest, even one county officer, laughed and said that by all means I have every right to go into their yard and cut the branch off where it should be cut, and they won't give us any greif. I guess to be fair I should have been politically correct and asked every person for permission to go about my own business. Just gotta vent a little I guess. So far I counted atleast 30 different pokes, prods, and scratches that drew blood today. Now for the clean up..... Gonna pile most of it and just light it up, if they don't have a problem with that too... Donovan from Wisconsin

Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
