Its not been too long in the past that there werent any tractors.Really less than 100 years.Im 53 and barely remember my Grandpa farming with horses still in the 50s.Ill bet that some kids from big cities in the 50s had no idea other than the store where food comes from.Lots of people before tractors came from a farm and moved to a city,and back to farms to work.Tractors put a lot of these farm hands out of a job.You would think with television that we have nowdays that somebody would use it to teach stuff like that.There should be a few classes in High School about it.Like Ancient History class,all kids should have Agriculture Survival class so maybe it would stop a lot of ignorance about what it takes to feed everybody.Some of them hardly ever see their parents,and if they do,they dont have time to teach them much,and maybe dont know themselves.Kids arent any different much than they ever were,its just a dumber,meaner,more urban,ignorant world they have to grow up in now.Seems like its more important to teach people how to get along in this crazy world that what was really important was forgotten.Some of them probably would want to go hunting and fishing if they knew what it was,and the old ways of butchering and canning,raising a garden,planting crops.The paper pushers running things have just about thrown everything away to support life,and dont even know it.

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
