I'll bet his neighbors who were using mules either looked on with envy or scorn, human nature being what it is. :wink: 
Looks like the driver of this modern invention was feeling on top of the world. It appears he is wearing a white shirt and suit coat. He probably has on a tie, too.

The caption just below the picture said it took seven years to teach this Ox to plow..........................
Looks like it's been seven years since he's been fed too! :lol:
Bad part of these pictures is.....I was trying to talk myself out of doing some plowing in my A/C cab tractor a few days ago. :shock:

I'm almost positive that plowin a watermelon patch is concidered ranchin, especially when you have a neighbor that has an ox that looks like that. Sooner or later, when them melons get ripe....or maybe before, that ox is gonna make a trip thru the fence and go to grazin em. Wallahhhh ranchin~!!!

I know is pretty much a joke, but we won't even be in the field for a while now. We got 2-5 inches last night and it is still snowing. And it is the middle of APRIL :!: :!: :!: :!:. The snow plows are out right now and school is two hours late. Started snowing yesterday mornin' and it is still blowing. Visiblity is 1 mile around here. Can't see the neighbor that is 1/4 mile away. Merry Christmas everybody.
Catch ya later,

The first man in the suit should be whipped for not knocking that terrace down before discing. I've pushed a couple in with dozers in the last few years and have a couple to go. They're worthless. The last man looks like he could be from here but not many of us had a slick looking ox and plow like he does.

Here's a couple Arkansas pictures. These are in better country than here.
