Farm News:
Loader Runs 35 Years
Mr. Hampke is still using an old Keystone hay loader that his father bought 35
years ago, and it runs as good as a new one. Charlie is a believer in taking
good care of his machinery, and as soon as he is through with a farm tool it is
carefully housed away from the weather and the elements. He is still using a
corn binder that has cut his corn for 24 years, a grain binder has run for 27
years, and is still in good shape.
The weather does more damage to machinery than actual work, is his belief, so
he keeps a good shed for his machinery. The shed he has for that purpose is a
carefully made structure covered with metal roofing on the sides as well as the
top. It is not only weather proof but fire proof as well.
William Hampke, Charles' father, is a man 80 years young, and he declares that
the old Keystone loader is the second one ever to be sold in Manitowoc county.
William still likes to work in the hay, and despite his advanced years, he can
be found up in the mow these days with his fork spreading it around as it is
sent up to him, and he doesn't ask favors from anybody.
