My dad came home the other day to the sound of a chain saw in his woods. When he went out he discovered the farmer, whom he has known for 40 years, cutting up a huge red oak that he had dropped, because he claimed a branch interfiered with his equipment. Well, dad has been walking this woodline for the past few years and always cuts down any branches that hang over into the feild and may cause a problem, to be nice. Dad asked him why he didnt try and cutdown the popples which actually would have been , if any, trees would be in the way. Well the farmer grumbled about the shade from the tree. Well, every year he plows as close to the woodline as possible, even sprayed the woodline edge with tree killer one year. By property lines dad owns a good 15-25 feet into the feild to begin with. This guy also was cutting up the tree as firewood peices, tossing them in his truck, and tossing the brush in the woods. He has been doing this off and on for 20 years, and dad has talked to him before, this time he just told him to get the he!! out of there. 1. I think he is after the big live oaks so the sun shines on the feild, cause he is always an early sower and the woods is on the south side of the feild, 2. he likes to give the wood( my dads wood actually) to his son. Dad wants to know what he should do. I told him after all these years of telling him, if he wants to to farm to the woods, pay rent on that acre or 3, otherwise stay on his side of the line. 2. send him a bill for that tree, When the road was expanded dad recieved $1500-$2000 per live large oak tree that was removed, that is what the appraiser valued them at. So what is a farmers rights on land edges like this, and being farmers and landowners what would you all do.

Today's Featured Article - My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
