You said that they are going to raise the limit to 60 cents a day. I hope it ISN'T to get the price DOWN. The price is NOT going to stay like it is forever. However, the price of fuel and fertilizer probably will. So when wheat goes back to the $3.50/bu. range and fuel stays at $3/gal., fertilizer at $550/ton+. what is going to happen. Personally, I think there is going to be a BIG wreck. We sold wheat off the combine the middle of July 2007 for $4.99/bu. Was waiting to get $5/bu. but it looked like the next day it was going to go down. Sold some more in October for $5.92. Was waiting for $6, but my wife said it was NEVER going to hit $6. I have to tease her everytime the market goes up. She's not seeing the humor anymore!! Anyway, we had a little overrun on our contract, and got $7.47 for that. Now we were very satisified with the prices we recieved, but if we would have waited...... We would have been able to do a much needed update on several pieces of equipment. When I checked the local elevator last Friday, cash prices were over $12/bu.!! But no one has any around here. Can contract 2008 crop for over $10/bu., but we don't know if our winter wheat has winter killed, as some of it didn't look very good last fall. So I think, or I should say I KNOW, wheat prices are NOT going to stay at the level they are for very many years. It is just a matter of time before the prices drop like a rock. Just don't know WHEN and how FAR!!!

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
