I thought I was going to get to use a new tractor once! In the spring of 1960, the farm I was working for bought a new JD 730 and a new JD mounted plow. The old man , his son, and son in law were all my bosses, and the old man decided that none of us three peon's were going to get to use the new rig, till he got to break it in. He took it out to the 20 ac field that I had cut the stalks in, and made his first furrow. When he made his turn at the fence on the far side he took out the fence and two posts. He came back making his dead furrow, and hooked a gate on his last turn. His son stopped him, and took the rig away from him, while we still had some fences left. I guess mounted plows just don't follow the tractor around the corner like the old pull types. Me and the son in law went to work fixing fence!
