I put a combination of old machinery together late this afternoon and seeded the waterway. The temp was 32 and required bundling up a bit on my part but the wind was almost calm and they're talking rain (what's that?) for Thursday with the possibility of thunder so I figured I'd better take advantage of the favorable conditions and get it done. I ended up seeding about two bushels per acre of oats and maybe 25 pounds per acre of brome. The tractor is a 51 model, same as me. The wagon is older but I don't know how old and the IH seeder is one dad bought in 1948 but I don't know if it was new or not when he bought it. The owner's manual talks about the average walking speed of a horse in the settings section and it has oil holes instead of zerks so that dates it somewhat. Some of those tires on the running gear have to be from the fifties so I don't put much more than ten pounds of pressure in them. Makes for a softer ride too. Tomorrow I'll hook the harrow and roller to the Oliver and work it in. This wagon is like a Cadillac to me. When I was a kid that seeder was in a triple box wooden wheeled wagon that rode like a lumber wagon. Dad drove the tractor and I tried to stand up in that heaving, pitching wagon while shoveling oats into the seeder. If I had to stand in that bouncing, jarring wagon today I'd be sore for a week!

I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the
