The three-day exposition starts Thursday, and for the first time the vast majority of John Deere tractors and equipment will be displayed inside. Free seminars and presentations will be held on Thursday and Friday discussing tractor restoration, electrical systems, trouble shooting and other topics. It's a stone's throw away from where most of the exhibited tractors were built, and Deere often used NCC's fall fair to unveil new models. Before taking an informal poll of exhibitors last...

Building and repairing machinery comes naturally to me from my farming days, but it still took lots of test fitting to get the parts to work. I bought the refurbished tractor from an antiques dealer for $1100. So, I bought a small stick welder at a hardware store and drove my pickup to a scrap-metal dealer to buy the materials. With just one click of a mouse, you can rotate, animate and explode every joint and part of six classic woodworking projects. The loader has a self-leveling bucket...

While the farm can't be her sole source of income, Brown said, the large farmhouse has allowed her to expand her rug-hooking business. They bought their five-acre property in 1999, leasing the land to farmer Stephanie Myers while...

The yard is used as a scrap yard, to store trucks and machinery imported from abroad, as well as a shed for repairing agricultural machinery. The owner of an illegal scrap yard next to Mgarr s parish church had to be held by police after he threatened to drive a large Caterpillar excavator onto Mepa officials, and their vehicles, as they started an operation to clear the site. But when Michael Galea, the owner of the yard, saw that his time was up, he resisted the operation by blocking the...
