Beautiful equipment. Grew up on Red machinery..well and still use them ag wise.

WOW...what a way to go.

A neighbor of ours lost an arm a few days ago in a corn picker. Muck like men did in the 60's. He is old enough to know better but became relaxed around running machinery.

I found a 2 and 1/2 yrd. scraper...in Alabama. Appears 50's design. I'm spread thin these coming weeks and know of no one near it.

Calculating independent haulers.

Getting off track here but brings me to ask....What landowners are resposable for what boundry fence in Canada?

Kevin from Iowa.

If his budjet is that good....I'd give some thought to hiring it done and invest the balance in DUK stock.
