Thanks. I remember those one row walking cultivators but by the time I was growing up they had been replaced by a John Deere sulky cultivator that had pedals which enabled the rider/driver to widen or narrow the gangs on either side of the row it was straddling so as to get right up to the next row. That, in effect, made it almost a two row cultivator. I well remember my grandfather starting on one side of a 40 acre corn field with that setup and I would start on the other side with a 2 row cultivator mounted on a WC Allis. I would always beat him to the middle because he would stop to rest the horses every two rounds (one mile). But we would make quick work of cultivating. We didn't have mules nor did any of our neighbors. I remember the shocked look of an army buddy from the south when I told him we didn't have mules. He said: "YA'LL DON'T HAVE MULES??!!" The real old timers said the biggest change they had seen in farming until the advent of tractors was the changeover from teams of oxen to horses.
