A Cotton Pickin Day
The field next to me got picked today and this is the first time I got to see it first hand. Usually I am not here. Pics to follow. Still pretty cool even thought it had green paint. Pretty impressive machine.

I also got to ride in it. I learned quite a bit about raising cotton. One thing that was pretty neat that it drives itself after it gets lined up on the rows.

Those are HIGH DOLLAR machines! Not only do they pick the cotton but they also bail it. It is a very nice unit... but I don't know farmers afford them! Our farm has been picked with one of those for the last two years.. The owner of the machine said his machine used was $450K! A new one is approaching $750K!

The neat thing about cotton is that it is not an annual, like corn,,
if you could let it grow,, you could have a 50 foot high cotton tree,,, Then,, you would have to buy a LOT of ladders to harvest it,,, |

About 45 years ago, I saw cotton being picked in Missouri,
I was just far enough south to be in cotton country. It was an eye opener, as us Yankees can't grow it. Back then it was mostly green equipment. I can't imaging picking it by hand like they did in my parents day. |

Guy in Leesburg down here with the IH museum has one of these. It’s awesome that it runs the opposite way and to see one in person they are quite tall

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
