We bought a American energy systems duel fuel called a magnum(now) 4 winters ago just after we bought this house we are now in(built in 1944 and moved to current location in 1963, needs most of the windows replaced(that's another story). At the time, the fellow we bought from had filled the propane tank the winter before 4 times at a cost of approx 300 dollars each time. I gave 2400 for the stove and burn approx 2 tons a winter at approx 2-300 dollars a ton now. We have the same tank of propane that we bought after the first year, I filled the tank in Oct, and put in the stove in December, I believe we filled that tank again the next fall and that was 3 years ago. Our stove sits in the living room corner(furthest from the thermostat, which is in the back bedroom). the stove has 5 settings and we have only once had it above 3, like to run us out of there. the front room will be around 80 deg. and the back bedroom will stay around 72 deg. use a floor fan to move the air around we will also use the furnace fan now and again when it is real cold out. usually around here gets down to the teens at night and in the 30 during the day(south central Kansas), for about 3-4 months. We start the stove on wood pellets, 1 bag a season, and then turn on the auger for the corn. I bought approx 2 tons of corn this winter, store it in a hopper I bought at a farm auction, and I buy from the CO-OP in the fall after harvest. I only sit on 5 acres so don't really have the room (equipment) to grow my own. It's the best thing since sliced bread. We just love ours, cleaner and a lot less hassle than using wood. They have a furnace type that you can hook up to your existing ductwork. I believe they are located in Minnesota with dealers all over the US, you'll have to check about the Great North. When we do it again, I'm going to put in the furnace and make a bin/auger combo to load dirctly into the stove. good luck, Kent

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
