The Lucknow Sentinel, 1978-10-18, Page 17A.i.bi:cy1s Observations
Yes, a number of us, got to goto. the
Plowing . Match, and I, expect we saw
more of the complete display than a
great number who spent the entire day
there, battling their way through the
crowd.
We left in our own small bus, from
which there is a good view no matter
where seated, and having our Mrs;.
Clarke behind the wheel, (she is an
excellent driver) we were able to cover
every part of the tented city.
As we left right after breakfast, there
were very few people there before we
had covered upone aisle and down
parkways that we would not have had
the privilegeof later in the day, and it
was so much easier for the driver.
I was amazed at the size of some of
those tractors, and the width of the
implements that they were able to draw.
Then I spotted a couple of old, black,
dirty, clumsy looking steam tractors
that were rated at twenty-one horse
power. My fingers .itched to put one
hand on the throttle and the other on the
steering wheeland show some of those
gas tractorswhat could be done 'with
one of them.
If they got in soft ground and sank
down, it was a simple matter to have.
them lift themselves out, and with a
couple of fence rads, away you went
again, and Their power seemed to know
no limit.
I wonder with the amount of wood.,
that is being left to rot, if they would not
be a big help in the energy crisis.
There is a possibility of me letting
myself get 'carried away on the
steainengine, because a man took me to
London, when I was about eighteen,
and he bought a complete new
threshing outfit.
On the way home he said, "that
engine is yours to operate, take good
care of it:"
By the .,time we arrived home, I
believe I hadgrown at least three inches
in. mind, and convinced that he would
never regret those words.

After some five years, the last time a I'

In reality with s4many farms with a
