Like your shots of equipment that seem like antiques now but really did the job back when!
I always imagine how long it would have taken those poor souls to plow 50 acres on one of these shown here 😯😯😯

These "antiques" fed a nation.
I look at what the farmers are plowing with today and then at these little things, and it must have really required dedication to be out there in all kinds of weather trying to get 50 acres done: No AC, no tinted windows, and just maybe, MAYBE an attached umbrella 😰😰😰

We didn't have even an umbrella. Daddy had a 2-bottom plow, a 4-planter, and a 2-row corn picker. He worked long hours, sitting on a couch cushion to soften that steel seat!

Is that tractor with the two steering wheels the tractor driver training vehicle? The trainee would sit at one seat and the trainer sits at the other but would still be able to control the vehicle if necessary - if the trainee was about to drive into a ditch or something?
