Image 390 of Theo Brown Diaries, 1946
Public DepositedWEDNESDAY OCTOBER 30 1946 In field this morning with 2 #101 tractors one equipped with our regular cultivator which is attached to the tractor front axle and one with a cultivator attached to the tractor main frame. I was anxious to find out by a field test whether a cultivator attached to the tractor frame would gauge the depth of cultivator shovels as accurately as necessary. Circle, [Mi?] Ken Anderson, Bob Merrill, Keith Scholfield, Harry Thompson, Bill Cade, & I tried the outfits. I was more favorably impressed with the cultivator on the main frame than I expected to be. All agreed there was not much difference and that either system would probably be satisfactory. Will leave the outfits for Silver & Ted Johnson to try out when they get home. I was in the field in afternoon with Ford Ferguson tractor & plow. We had made a single bottom plow out of the 2 bottom one by putting in a stub beam. We also disabled the automatic spring control to hydraulic cylinder. The plow [Place Card: Mrs Brown] seemed to work OK. Propose to try tthis on the #101 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Icelandic Singers" A Civic Music Concert in evening.
