strippers

An I was hoping for more pictures to turn Creston on Wink

with what he thinks is the worlds best cotton strippers ALLIS CHALMERS. LOL

I never picked cotton so I cannot say.

We had a retired neighbor that was a hooker in minneapolis and of course he worked the night shift. ...For the Star and Tribune paper

He set the type and set the frames in the machines so thus he was the hooker.

He who says there is no evil has already deceived himself
The truth is the truth, sugar coated or not. Trawler II says, "Remember that."

And to think, while our minds are in the gutter. Pennsylvania has a town called Intercourse PA, AND a township called Blue Ball PA. lol

Also Climax, MN

Intercourse, AL

I often wondered how Hooker Ok. got it's name. Used to tell my young student truck drivers that we would switch drivers at Hooker Ok. Got some funny looks most of the time.

So far, this poor JD Dan has not gotten one sound answer to the question in his original post. LOL! Darrel

Not the first time its happened, either... Wink

To answer the question as best as I can We have a neighbor that striptills he has 24 dawn units on a bower bar on tracks he pulls it with a cat challenger and they have a montag cart behind it that delivers fertilizer with a blower. The machine does take some adjusting to get it set right but they have good yields using it. One thing you have to be careful with is on slopes with the heavy rains we have had the last few years you can get some washing in the strips. They have also used a soil warrior to make strips that were worked deeper, but that is only an 8 row it is heavy and pulls hard.. They do strips in fall and also in spring ahead of the planter, they have a 24 row planter and with auto steer on everything try to plant right on the strips. They cover every acre but only work 1/3 of the ground. The other thing they do is manage wheel traffic, they have done yield checks on individual rows and they find a lot of yield loss next to the tire tracks but not on the other rows. Or I should say maybe increased yield on rows with no tracks.

oh...I had to strip til/plant to satisfy the govt office. but the big green farmers don't have to on the same ground. that really chapped my a$$

If you ever have to repossess a car from one of them gals, it can be an education. I had to send my repo man after 1. The next day she showed up, seems her whole wardrobe/working/play tools was in the trunk. Bosses brother is the head deputy in the county. He just happened to be there in uniform when she showed up to get her stuff. His questions were rather extensive. We was all out in the shop rolling on the floor laughing. He was sure having fun too. I know this didn't answer the question, but the question was a little -- well you all know.

I do strip-till following my soybeans. It works well for me and saves a trip across the field in the spring. I still chisel my cornstalks in the fall to help with weed pressure except on my highly erodible ground.

Only tillage I remember was dragging thet 13 foot disc around and around behind thet old model A, while the big tractor,a 1650 Oliver sat in the machine shed. Wasn't until I ran away from home at age 18 did a bigger disc show up on the place. Only thing I could figure was dad musta thought it would keep me out of mischief. Same model A chopped the stalks too. I hated thet tractor. But the oliver was't a closed cab either so there wasn't a lot of improvement. At least the model A had a heat houser so you was warm half the time.

I still gots my A/C but it's clear out in the barn now.

Dang

I thought it was gonna be something bout Stormy's new book. LOL

any downfalls to the dawn units? what crops? any other info you can share? Thanks!
