I have loaded manure with a trip loader, not great, but beat the heck out of a pitch fork!! These tractors were so much better for getting work on the farm done than the horses they replaced. A lot of the feed that the farm grew was fed to the horses, and the year round commitment of caring for the horses. Yes you had to feed the tractor gas, but only when it worked, and it just sat in the shed not needing any daily care when not in use. Leaving the farmer with more time and feed to give to hogs, milk cows or whatever stock the farm ran. Difficult really to compare farms and tractors from then to now. A farm then might cost 3-5 thousand dollars, while grain like barley or corn might have been worth $60 per ton. You could actually earn enough money from what you grew on the farm to make the farm pay for itself. Today’s grain prices won’t pay for a million dollar 100 acre farm. It’s nice to look back
