A Case-150 steam tractor plowing 36 furrows at a pass:
Those big steam tractors were too expensive for almost all farmers to afford, especially since they were used for plowing and threshing. From what I've read, some farmers formed co-ops to own and run those tractors. Or there were traveling contractors that came by with their engines.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
