When I was in my early teens we mowed hay with a CASE SC and mower. I followed behind my uncle Myron with a 56 CASE 300 and a CINNINGHAM hay crimper. Woodchucks, rabbits and a skunk always either stalled the 300 or popped the shear pin. We carried a pipe wrench to turn the rolls backwards to free the half tenderized critters. Boy did that skunk cause an enviromental issue though!!!! At the age I was at then, there was no bordom, I was driving a really nice tractor. After the hay was ready to rake I spent many hours on a CASE VAO raking. At my age 3rd. was too slow, and 4th was too fast, so I was restricted to raking in 3rd. (till knowone was around) I also drove the LA on the CASE NCM Baler and then on the CASE 140 Baler while my uncle Kerm loaded the wagons from the bale shut. I could spend hours telling you all about wagons tipping over because of woodchuck holes,on side hills, being pushed down steep gravel roads with big loads of hay behind the SC and 300. Also had the wagon hitch shear off the bale shut, and watched helplesslly as my uncle in a nearly full wagon made a right turn and rolled rapidly down across the feild and ended up hovering over a country road,suspended by two 8" diamiter trees that it tiped over the road. My uncle ended up in a pasture across the road with a bunch of red spots on his chest and forhead from the cut side of the bales that cuishioned his impact with the trees and the ground on the other side of the road.Life was great on the farm when I was growing up. Shi! happened back then, but we are all alive to laugh about them now.
