From the very first mower on the farm untill around 2000 only had mowers with a pitman and there NEVER WAS ONE THAT BROKE. Got some different mowers with a broke stick but it was because the mower was not taken care of by leaving it out all year in all types of weather never putting the mower in side. But we NEVER had a stick break and mowed hundreds of acres a year at times. And the semi mount did make as nice a turn as the 3 point hitch or the tractor pull type. The horse mower with the cutter bar in front of the wheels is what did not make a nice square corner. And I have ran all 4 types, only thing did not have was side mount. Had the semi mount on a John Deere B , A Farmall H and a Ferguson TO30. It was a Coop I bought needing a lot of work in early 60's and due to, TOO high or Ferguson, TOO low. The trail type will not put the end of the bar in the fence like either a fully mounted or a semi mounted will do on a left hand turn. Right hand turns no problems. I started mowing with a David Bradly horse drawn mower that also came with the tractor hitch when new and second mower I bought myself in I think 1958 and it was the first horse drawn mower that carried a John Deere name and our last mower was an Oliver pull type that was exact same as Moline or Cockshut except collor of paint and it had the hitch to pull a hay conditioner with that we did for several years.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of David Brown - by Samuel Kennedy. I was born in 1950 and reared on my family�s 100 acre farm. It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
