That farm book had everything you could imagine... incubators, brooders, day old chicks, milking equipment, right up through field machinery.<<<

Yes, my 100 egg incubator came from there...

It was so easy to order from the catalogs and LOL, my friend Mary taught me to look and note the pages, wait a day, make out the order, wait a week and mail it or call it in.

Always amazed me how the order shrunk in a week, as reality set in.

I have on a cotton blouse right now, still good enough for going out in, must be 25 years old.

In Texas, with outhouses, there would be a catalog.

I felt lost when Sears stopped them.

You did lead an exciting life, but then travel can be good for a kid, if they actually live the life of the new area.

So much in this world that we are missing.

If you live in an old farm area, start putting ads up on that Craigs site or do a google search for it by name or type, you may find one, I did some searching for my brother and there were all kinds of tractor sites, sales sheets for old ones, etc.

Also check Yahoo groups, you may find a group there.

My idea of a tractor is at least a 2 row Farmall.
