"OK children I know we all had a wonderful time as guests of farmer MacArthur at his place yesterday on our field trip. All his animals and land and agricultural machinery was fascinating and informative, wasn't it? Now how about some of you repeating things you heard and remember from our visit. Wendy, what did you hear? 'I heard the ducks say QUACK QUACK!' Very good, Wendy! Margaret, how about you? 'I heard the sheep say BAAAAA! BAAAAAA!' Excellent! And you, Jonathan? "My favorite was when I heard, "HEY YOU LITTLE BASTARD GET OFFA' THAT FUGKIN' TRACTOR!"

When I was growing up we would go to my grandmas house in Mabel MN for the local celebration Steam engine days it was the first or second weekend in September. They had a parade of them and demonstrations at the fair grounds. It was pretty cool. Think they still do it.
It takes a single tractor with lot of horse power to pull a single 11 bottom plow ! Those are some pretty impressive tractors when you think about steel wheels and all !
My grandpa farmed with mules. He had a team of 2, used one in the morning and then switched out to the other one in the afternoon to give each proper rest. The JD tractor came much later in life and would probably look like a toy compared to what is being run today.
My great grand father used draft horses until the early-60's mostly to pull wagons bought his first tractor 1947 Farmall diesel it is still used to this day....my Dad won the tractor pull at the County Fair with it in 1952 drove it 10 miles to get there....
Just for a little history . My dad and his brother took the train to Iowa and drove a steel wheeled tractor back to North Dakota. They were none up north so they went down there for it. One rode and one walked. He said the lucky one was the one who got to walk for awhile. And we think we got it rough. LOL. Edk
Grandparents couldn't afford a tractor. So they shortened a 1930 Chrysler running chassis, installed another tranny behind the first one for a lower gear ratio and put tractor/or maybe bigger truck tires on the back. I remember as a little kid they also had a buck rake on the front for haying. In the winter they used an old 30's v-shaped car hood as a trailer to haul things to and from the woods. This was in Northern Minnesota.
