Nothing beats having good neighbors. Bad neighbors on the other hand? I've got a good neighbor and then there's the guy I bought my land from. I'm friendly to him but after I had to pay for the county road improvements after he told me he was getting the county to do it, my equipment will be broke down if he ever needs anything like skid steer or backhoe work. I think he's building a new house? Oh well, I'm too busy. I drove the Cat a couple miles up the road to pull my good neighbor out when he got the baler too close to a wet spot. He's helped me out a few times as well but then again he's a farmer. The other guy doesn't have a clue. He used my truck and trailer to pick up an 8N and what he thought was a 3 pt. plow. It was an Allis 2 pt. plow of some sort. I was going to go with him but was too busy so I let him use my truck. His 3 hour trip took over 7 1/2 hours! He didn't even bother to fill my tank up. He left with half a tank and returned with just under half a tank and complained about how much gas my truck used. It took him so long because he couldn't follow directions and got lost. That's what I call cheap! Especially since I paid him thousands for the land. I'll know better next time. There won't be a next time with him. Dave

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
