Great videos, I'm hooked

I never cared a thing about a saddle horse, but I think a draft horse is a beautiful thing indeed. A well broke team of draft animals, horse or mules, is a joy for me to watch. When you get to know someone who owns draft animals you almost always hear them say the animals seem born to pull and do it naturally. This has been a great pleasure for me to watch.

I have no experience of horses but the draft horses seem to have a friendship with their handlers like a dog has with his handler, beautiful indeed

Hello Roy, my name is Glen Gunter. I live up in Saskatchewan and when I saw Humboldt, I thought it was in Humboldt Saskatchewan. My grandfathers name was Roy and so your name caught my eye. I don't know if you will ever see this, but I thought I would reach out on the off chance you would. It would be interesting to me if we could connect and see if we are related in some way. I'm not sure how to communicate with someone confidentially as this is the first time I have ever commented on KZread. Anyway, if you see this and are interested, leave a message and let me know. Good day.

Great video thanx,regards from Lincolnshire England. 👍🚜

This is a very familiar scene to me. I well recall stacking the stooks behind the binder. Then, at threshing time, load the sheaves onto the hay rack for the trip to the threshing machine. My job was shovelling grain on the truck beside the threshing machine. Hard work, but very pleasant memories!

They are plowing with a norwergian horse breed, "fjording". I am not surprised that he managed to work with them after 2 months of training. This breed is known to be very calm, stable mentally, learn fast and easy to handle. I owned one of those once, he couldn't get enough cuddling.

We had a pair of horses on the farm when my dad was a kid. My uncle had told me of one horse in particular named Dave. My Uncle Fern told me he could hook up Dave to the plow and never had to direct Dave to do anything. He said Dave was such a great worker that he only had to mention what they were doing for the day and he knew exactly what to do and could plow a straight line with no help.He has allot of great stories of the farm in the early days. Dave was later replaced by a tractor in 1949 and retired. I hope one day we can return to these events. The world is a different place today. To all the gentlemen in this video God bless you all and keep you safe.

That was a fantastic story about Dave. Amazing how some animals know what man is saying.

That was a real dip into olden times and a pleasure to see. Thank You.

I love the push header.

Years ago the serious horse pullers had their teams trained so that when the chains were moved to hook to the weighted sled they started to pull no matter what, the two guys hooking the chains better not miss the hook. It all happened in a second and the horses meant business. kind of like a dragster taking off the starting line. Even the ponies when they pulled they would be drawn down to where their bellies were less than a foot off the ground it was amassing to watch.

Great show love vintage

very nice video. thank you Arthur Baker

Good old ways still work.

this was quite entertaining and cool. I really want to see that Amish horse drawn fork lift pick up a bale.

We need to farm our farmland like the Amish does .

All work that gives our working horses a job is good work.

This is the way we should farm not use no chemicals on our land either when we raise crops. It would help our planet out greatly if we all would . It would make people healthier. Love your show maybe people will go back to the old ways .

love the channel

The trouble with manure spreaders is you can never find a dealer that will stand behind their product.

My grandpa use to talk about headering and the grasshoppers . Had to keep the shirt collar button tight so they didn't get in under your shirt.

I recognize a lot of this equipment...my grandfather converted some models to tractor power. I never did see horses pushing a wheat combine.

James Ellsworth , if that's a wheat 🌾 combine where's the hopper for the grain 🌾? I've lived on a farm all of my life and I've never seen a machine like that.🚜👍

@@willfo8358 The video shows equipment from before the era of ''combination harvesters" (combines.) There is a cutter that we see using paddles to sweep grain and stems aside. Workers gathered them and bundled them, stacking the sheaves on a wagon to take to a threshing floor. The next step was to use a combination harvester to cut and thresh the grain, with the grain going into bags. A man sat on a bagging platform towards the rear, placing the bags at the grain spout, tying them with a 'Miller's Knot' and then tripping part of the platform to roll the bag to the ground for pickup by wagon. You can see how much labor a hopper and an auger saved.

Guys didn't even know it's called a header wagon that goes alongside their push header

Why not take a full swath n wat u do after its cut how do u pick it up?

@missiontent111

4 жыл бұрын

I imagine he was not taking g a full swathe because the machine would originally have been worked by more than four horses. Probably a team of six .... or even eight. He is also demonstrating this historic machine .... not working it commercially .... so he is not wanting, or needing, to work the horses too hard unnecessarily. There were various ways to pick up... but the most likely contemporary machine would be an elevator in front of, and loading into, a waggon. The reaper is fascinating to watch. I don't believe this type of machine was used in the UK ...probably too big for our smaller fields.

I'm guessing they brought in a combine with a pickup head. There's a chance they brought in a hay loader and picked it up loose to take it to the threshing machines, but that wouldn't be the common way to do it. Normally the material run through a threshing machine is shocked or bundled and tied with a string. I've never seen a front mounted reaper, so it was interesting. I wish they would have shown the next step.

I was wondering why the spreaders had been restored with such durable materials when they will hardly get used, seems more of a modification than a restoration, that is not to take anything away from the superb finish that has been achieved

6 horses to pull a plow?

I was checking it out and believe that it was a two bottom plow .

Kind of interesting how horses are hooked to a sled that doesn't get progressively harder to pull like tractor pull sleds do.

they didn't have the fertilizers they have now. then you had to plow to turn over the soil. other wise you would of not got much of a crop. also there were no zero dill speed drillers or corn planters at the time
