>SEL and tractor fans,
>Fans of all things International Harvester will be pleased to know the 3rd 
>annual show at Mike Burn's place will be held on October 29th at his house.
>Mike has an unbelievable collection of large horsepower Mogul engines, 
>Famous engines, Mogul tractors, Famous tractors (including s/n #1 friction 
>drive), an IHC auto, early Harvester grain binder, threshing equipment, and 
>numerous smaller IHC and Osborn engines.
>
>In years past it has been a working show (I assume it will be the same this 
>year) including the cutting of wheat straw he grew and bound with the IHC 
>cutter/binder, the threshing of the straw, and the baling with a large IHC 
>hay baler. The thresher is driven with one of the large Mogul or 
>Famous/Titan tractors.
>
>In the late morning to early afternoon the tractors are started in the 
>fields pulling large plows. There is nothing better than the stack music 
>these large tractors make when pulling hard!
>
>If you are into early IHC engines and tractors and seeing them worked as 
>they would have been a 100 years ago, then this is the show for you!
>
