What are they? They look like a disk, with long metal rope like strands that look like what you would find on a lawn aerator. I asked grandpa once years ago while we where following one near Hastings, MI. He called it a mouser? ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

If it rains on a field right after beans are planted and then dries out fast it will form a hard crust on top where the beans cannot push through the crust. If another rain is not going to come soon to soften the crust we would use the rotery hoe and run it over the top to bust up this crust to allow the beans to pop out. We could run it pretty fast over the field at about 10-12 MPH. ------------- 1957 WD45 dad's first AC 1968 one-seventy 1956 F40 Ferguson |

No, It hade more of the frame of a tandem wing disk. I'll look on tractor house and see if I can't find one. He also said they where used in muck fields. ------------- German Shepherd dad 1957 Allis Chalmers WD45 #WD234847 1951 Allis Chalmers WD #WD88193 |

My neighbor used some kind of rolling basket thing to go over bean ground, before planting last year. It was a single row and veed so if you took the whole width of the implement every pass it made ridges across the field. Kinda like this. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

| It is used on notill ground to rough up the ground in spring so ground will warm up sooner. If you don't disc or field culivate the ground the notil ground will be insolated from the rasidu left on top. MACK |

I think what your talking about is a phillips harrow. Its used to dry out ground ahead of the planters, knock down corn stalks ,or level anhydrous ridges, and like Mack said fluff up the residue. Around here you either have a pheonix harrow or a phillips harrow. All I use my 7060 for is pulling a 42' pheonix harrow and the faster you pull them the better they work. I try for 9 mph. Heres a picture of a phillips harrow, and my pheonix harrow.
