We no till sometimes if we are getting late in the season for planting due to extra wet conditions. It doesn't work to well for us. Almost everyone that does not till around here works their ground in three year rotations after corn. Work the ground, plant soybeans. Harvest soybeans, no till wheat. No till corn into the wheat stubble. Work the corn stubble and start over again. Have a neighbor that swears by no till, will not work ground, ever. He did a lot of shares for ground, but many people went with someone else after a couple good years, then many years of declining yields. He had one field tiled last year, one that hadn't been fit in 15 years. The soil behind the tile plow looked like it was boulders as a quarry it was packed so hard. But it was only dirt, no rocks. The landowner is a real loyal guy, but he is old school too, and thinks stuff should be turned over very now and then. He used his old field cultivator and dug the heck out of his field that the farmer had no tilled for so long. Looks pretty good this year. Like you say, it works well year after year some places, but where I live, it doesn't. Most agree a 3 year cycle works best around here if that's how you are going to do it.

This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
