Seven years in FFA, four in HS by 1961, and three after while working on home farm for disabled Dad. No shortage of BS in FFA...younger classmate got State Farmer Degree cuz advisor upped his dairy herd average by 100 pounds BF, since the herd was so poor. I was honest in my app, missed out. No big deal, herd wasn"t mine anyway, had no control over it.
I went to military, worked my way thru college for Ag degree, BS in Animal Science, started farming from scratch...still here after 43 years. Classmate, an only child, lost the farm in the 80s.

When FFA changed the name from Future Farmers of America, to meaningless FFA, I thought that was just stupid. No shortage of bootlickers.

And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
