I was born in 1952 and grew up on a 160 acre dairy farm in northern New York about 20 miles inland from the St. Lawrence River. My family had 24 cows, a 1927 Fordson and 2 teams of horses. The milk went into cans. Hay was put up loose with a hayloader and corn was chopped into a snow fence "silo" with an ensilage cutter. My father bought a 1952 8N with a 2 bottom 3ph plow in 1955, put up a concrete stave silo in 1958, a JD 14T baler in 1959, an MF 65 high arch with a 4 bottom 3ph plow in 1960, a used NH 611 chopper in 1963, a JD number 9 3ph hitch mower and a 3ph snow blower in 1964, built a new milk house and bulk tank in 1965, a NH 461 haybine and a JD self unloading wagon in 1967, another JD self unloading wagon in 1968, a JD 34 chopper and replaced the Fordson with an MH 101 Jr. standard in 1969, a Patz silo unloader in 1970 when I went off to college, an MF 165 high arch diesel with a loader in 1971 and a NI roll-a-bar style rake in 1972. The herd had crept up to 37 cows and the horses disappeared in that time period. I took over in 1974.

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that.
