I was thinking about you yesterday with the day I was having. I was going to run to town and get a pail of hydraulic oil before I went out to start discing corn ground. I got to the end of the driveway,pushed the brake pedal and something popped,then no brakes on the pickup. I blew out a rear caliper. The wife was gone,so I went and disced. Got home to hook on to the chisel plow and there was a broken hinge on the tractor cab door. Welded that,hooked on to the chisel plow,checked the tires and one had a cracked valve stem and wouldn't hold air.
I jacked up the pickup and pulled the back wheel. The back of the left rear rotor was ground down,inside pad was shot,caliper blown out. Two o'clock and $208 later I had brakes again. Went and chiseled the oat ground,came home,took a bale out to the cows and found two dead calves. One had been dead a while apparently,all the guts were eaten out of it. No idea which one had it,hoping it was a twin to one that's up and walking.
The second one looked like it was born dead. Small calf. Only one I can figure had it was a second calf cow that looks a little like she's had one. I've still got that twin calf here that got abandoned,so we put that cow in the pen with him. We'll see how that goes. If they pair up,it'll be about the only salvation for the whole day.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
