Steve, I agree with you. When my Uncle returned from WW2, he and my Dad modernized. Electric in the barn, milking machines, coolers, and a tractor: an 8n, 1948 model. Along with the tractor, a full line of equipment, including a hay baler. It was the first one in the area, and the next thing they were baling hay all over the county. Dad always said the 8n was the handiest tractor. They went thru 3 of them and '53 Jubilee with a Wagner loader before getting an IH300u with fast hitch equipment and a quick attach loader (u-34a),while still keeping the last '52 8n. The Wagner loader and the side mower took too long to hook up and remove comparatively. At first they actually thought the 300u was too big, but then realized you can't have too much power. What makes the 8n really great is the Sherman 'step up and step down' auxiliary transmission, which gives you 12 speeds, - handy and nimble. I never, ever heard Dad say he missed those horses, that the tractor replaced. Mark.

Wilmer and his brother Weldon owned the �Neff� farm. Th
