WHAT I MOST like about this video is the info about the Case Tractor. Remember that in 1984 we only got .25 cents per lb., I worked as a farm hand for $25. per day and was glad to get it. Most the time I had to settle for $15.00 per day in the winter. Sometimes we worked outside a 0 degrees f., -1 I stayed home.
Another great video Jan. Nice to see that you have respect for equipment that is old, has been looked after and still does the job. So many people think that they have to have the newest, biggest, machinery. If it ain't broke don't fix it, and don't be afraid to let the neighbours see you use it!!.
Hi from London :) I've been following you since you started Mr Kid - and just look how you've grown both as a young Farmer - and as an individual on-camera. Bless you my young Friend :)
My goodness, you just ever know what the day will bring! Good attitude, especially for farm life. Rolling with the punches so much less stressful. By the way....36 years old and still going strong is awesome. You take care of the equipment and it will take care of you for years to come. Great vid Jan, no on the fertilizing those fields by emptying the that pit.
I really like the part where you talk about the old tractor. I live in Wisconsin born and raised I just found it really interesting how you talked about the tractor. Just because it's old doesn't mean it's a good piece of equipment that's some of the best equipment ever made. I love your videos keep up the good work and thank you.
3 hoses in one day sucks - no matter how you look at it! LOL Always admire the way you manhandle materials and equipment and get the job done. While "it is what it is", it wouldn't be what it is if you didn't have such a good work ethic and positive attitude. That is so refreshing Jan! Thank you for being such a good example for other folks!
It is what it is. That’s such a good attitude. You accept a situation, work your way through it without allowing the stress. I wish my son could learn to do that.
Kielstra Holsteins, I’m a Kikstra, Friesian(Dutch) living in Japan now. 20 years dairy farming in NZ after leaving Friesland. Enjoying your channel, keep it up.
Good positive attitude.....things do go wrong, how those problems are addressed shows your inner strength and you handle the situations well...."it is what it is"....great job!
I wished everyone his age had that same attitude. The 18 to 20 something people i know would just through there hands up an walk away an wait for someone else to fix it.
That is a crappy job but it needs to be done. If people only knew how much it takes to keep a dairy farm going. No one will last one hour. I commend you on a job Well done. The only way for me to take Vitimine D is through milk. Thank you Jan.
The price of that tractor at that time would be comparable to that of a house back then, much the same as today really, i had no idea tractors were and still are such a huge expensive item, id love an old one as a hobby. When you say you are going home to bed, i kinda imagine you have a bed in a corner somewhere on the farm, simply because you seem to be there 24/7 ! Great content, always interesting, you work very hard, hope you get some time to have fun.
Funny you were saying in the last video about the Dutch being known as cheap (frugal), and then your dad gets the used hose! CLASSIC! Too bad it didn't work, I'm sure that stuff is expensive. I understand though, it's not about trying to cut corners, it's about trying to get the absolute max out of every dollar. Every successful business knows that.
Lol 😂 before the the clip came up i knew the used hose would be bad! My dad is cheap and always buys used tires and every time. I get a call “son my tire blewout...” 🤣
Those older tractors were built to last with regular maintenance. And you could fix them yourself and improvise if need be. Like most products today, lots of bells and whistles, but needs more fixes and done by dealer in some cases. Then there is the electronics, required updates and getting the parts to service them.
You got lucky with that Allen screw. Whenever I run across Allen screws I bring every Allen wrench in my tool box. It seems like it’s always the last one I try that actually works. 😂
A few of the utube farmers are getting damp bails heating up lately. I guess thats what you want to avoid. I imagine its your meticulous maintenance that gives your tractors such longevity. It even looks good still. I thought you were the night manure guy. Anyway this was a good video. Peace.
It was the same in Manitoba, over there we had a round bailer to and that was better then big square bails, because the same what you said about the rain.😉
Hey Jan, I went back to this vid to comment - I was just watching another vlogger going over round balers, and they showed a new one that had a crop roller just before the baler picked up the straw - I know you did the crop rolling days before baling, but maybe if you can get an attachment for your baler it would help prevent the failed bales.
You have to remember about inflation when thinking about pricing, eg 40000 dollars was a lot more as people were paid less back in the day, whereas wages are higher nowadays but things cost more also so it kinda evens out
Nice how clean your jeans are under these boots 😅 I asked myself one thing: How is the net wrap secured on the bale? Does it just hook up itself or is there any kind of fastening mechanism in the baler? Greetings from germany ✌🏻
Great video, we have a Massey Ferguson 190 lb Heston baler and I think you can get 1 and a half of a round bale in one of those, there impressive bales, but great video once again👍
things including the price of tractors can be said that the price has gone up, but the other angle is that the value of the dollar has dropped and requires more dollars to buy the same thing.
You're quite a guy bro. I don't know ANY men your age who has the knowledge, has the work ethic and has the determination that you do. I don't know your name or how old you are, but you're parents must be extremely proud of you.
hey are you all thinking about getting a slurry separator or bedding recovery separator for your slurry system I was watching another farmer vid and there's worked really well and they want to replace it. a separatory would fix the sand problem in your pit and also means you could recover your bedding which should save money in the long run.
Nice work! You are evolving very nicely! 110k- gonna grow fast now!. Keep doing what you do! Don't say ," it is what it is!". trump says that, and it is getting repeated not in a good light at all. You are just seeming honest and sincere, good!
Nothing worse than liquid manure spill or a leaky hose. We had a Case tractor and it rode and drove like a German tank. Jon did put that piece of tin underneath the tractor to protect from starting a fire ?
What do you of these straw belles........ is it used to feeding cattle or only far bed on it........ because in our India this wheat straw used for feeding purpose
hey @saskDutchKid go to your local Fire station and ask if they have any 5"-6" Large Diameter Hose (LDH) laying around... it's usually in great shape, comes in 100' lenghts and would be great in situations like this!! I'm sure the guys and gals would be willing to give it to you for FREE!!
You talking about moisture content reminded me of me telling my neighbor that if it was me I would turn over the prairie hay and let it sit for one more day it was green, but he told me that I didn't know what I was talking about. Then bailed up 45 acers of Johnson grass. Then latter on that night I had to call the fire department to put out the hay bails that spontaneous caught fire.
Not all of Canada is as cold as Saskatchewan. Where I live it is 28 F today (January 1 2021) but tomorrow will be sunny and 37 F. We rarely get snow but when we do it melts in a day.
As always another fine video, hey, it just come to me,, i've been trying to figure out where I recognize you from and I think I finally figured it out, you remind me of the Movie Avatar, I hoe that does nto offend you as its not my intent, but it's interesting. anyway, The hose deal on one sucks, but on the other hand, it really blows LOL Thanks for the video, always impressive work man, keep it going.
The old Case will run forever, No computers, no government juice, no DPF , no sensors going off every minute, and a mechanical diesel engine simple to work on and repair . not say the young techs in the dealerships at $150 / hour with their scan tools and lap tops. guess Im old school.

You're a great young man that does what has to be done without the complaints, you're chilled and cool all time which is important with farming
Great old tractor it never misses a beat she purrs along working the round baler no probs. Great video
I am very happy to cu Jan. Hard worker as always. Keep up the good WORK. Be safe always.
Hi from London :) I've been following you since you started Mr Kid - and just look how you've grown both as a young Farmer - and as an individual on-camera. Bless you my young Friend :)
I am always amazed at the extreme variety of tasks you have to perform at a very proficient level.
A tip: watch movies at kaldroStream. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Anders Kristian definitely, been watching on KaldroStream for months myself :)
@Anders Kristian yup, been using Kaldrostream for months myself :)
@Anders Kristian Definitely, been watching on kaldroStream for years myself :)
@Anders Kristian Definitely, have been using kaldroStream for years myself :D

I love my small square bales, stay safe Jan and stay awesome 😎 🇺🇸♥️🇨🇦
Camera angles, content, narration = 👍👍👍👍👍 X 2. In 1964 I bought my first NEW car, a Chevy Impala @ $1,700 US Dollars
Nice to see you on the old workhorse . Regards from germany
Good positive attitude.....things do go wrong, how those problems are addressed shows your inner strength and you handle the situations well...."it is what it is"....great job!
Another great video Jan. I love your can-do attitude and your outlook on dealing with problems: it is what it is. So true.
I wished everyone his age had that same attitude. The 18 to 20 something people i know would just through there hands up an walk away an wait for someone else to fix it.
We just bought an IH 884 (1980 model). Those old tractors are great ! Can’t wait to get it next week ! Great video ! Thanks !
Really looking forward to the 24 hours of hauling manure...something I never thought I’d say! 🤪
Sue May they don’t have mud rooms on a farm they have manure rooms!
That is a crappy job but it needs to be done. If people only knew how much it takes to keep a dairy farm going. No one will last one hour. I commend you on a job
Well done. The only way for me to take Vitimine D is through milk. Thank you Jan.
Glad you take the time to make these videos. Thx

Your a very good demeanor shows with your through explanation of events.

I liked your comment about the hose, “ It kind of sucks” a pun perhaps.
Julie Lumsden oh good one I didn’t even see it!
That particular hose 'blows'! Lol!
Thank you Jan for the videos. Keep up the great work brother!!
Lol 😂 before the the clip came up i knew the used hose would be bad!
My dad is cheap and always buys used tires and every time. I get a call “son my tire blewout...” 🤣
I am from Ireland love what your doing great job
Loved your custom skid pan on the tractor.
Shout out from Nova Scotia Canada. We’re Dutch also !
Who doesn’t want a longer hose!!!
The videos are very good (greetings from Chile 🇨🇱)
Great video!!! keep up the good work. It's good to have an informative and fun channel to watch

We build things right here in Wisconsin
Always sweet content great to see all the different stuff ya do can’t wait til the next one
You got lucky with that Allen screw. Whenever I run across Allen screws I bring every Allen wrench in my tool box. It seems like it’s always the last one I try that actually works. 😂

When dealing with manure, always go with a new hose! Ha!
It was the same in Manitoba, over there we had a round bailer to and that was better then big square bails, because the same what you said about the rain.😉

Once again super satisfied with the video.
Awesome job!!
Awesome Video!!
You did good kid I would let it all spill out!
Handling repeated adversity in stride. A symptom of excellent personal character!
Kid Dutch you sure know how to do everything on the ranch 👍
You can connect the net to the other net with a node, so you don't have to rebound everything. I always do this with my round bailer
Nice merch you got there Jan I like the kolestra Holstein
Do like. N. H. Baler we have krone because it does silage bales better. I always enjoy your vids from Australia
Welcome from Germany!
Your camera skills keep getting better and better. Some really nice shots lately!
Gosh, you are so patient! And I wonder what you look like without your hat??
"It is what it is", a common saying on a farm. Somethings you just can't do much about.
Pretty common saying out of the mouth of Donald Trump too. Come to think of it he spreads manure on the night shift via Twitter also
Thanks for another informative video. You are the man. Till next time, take care.
What is your favorite Brand of tractor, great video
what you didn't count for is inflation. if that same tractor was made today the MSRP on it would be $107,979.53
You are right. And how much was the average prize for a gallon of milk?
@@karloarsch1579 Uhm...even if your question is rhetorical, what's the point you're trying make?
@@danielelvebak2580 How many gallons of milk does a farmer has to sell, to be able buy a new tractor today and 30+ years ago?
Jan clearly stated that the rice was long ago and that now it would cost over 100 grand.
In 1975 my Dad bought a 94 HP Allis-Chalmers 200 for $11,000 US.
Great video, as always!
Great awesome video Jan , they always say it’s a 1000.00 dollars per horsepower
You have to remember about inflation when thinking about pricing, eg 40000 dollars was a lot more as people were paid less back in the day, whereas wages are higher nowadays but things cost more also so it kinda evens out
Nice how clean your jeans are under these boots 😅

Great video, we have a Massey Ferguson 190 lb Heston baler and I think you can get 1 and a half of a round bale in one of those, there impressive bales, but great video once again👍
👍👌🇨🇦❤, another Sask boy, me too
Good job bro
things including the price of tractors can be said that the price has gone up, but the other angle is that the value of the dollar has dropped and requires more dollars to buy the same thing.
Say thank you to Justin in Ottawa for our devalued dollar.
You're quite a guy bro. I don't know ANY men your age who has the knowledge, has the work ethic and has the determination that you do. I don't know your name or how old you are, but you're parents must be extremely proud of you.
When my grandpa got our John Deere 4440 he paid 13,500 for it and it was brand new
Great video.
Wow a Kielstra Holstein shirt. Would love to buy some. Are they available, Jan, for sale?
Can't wait for video hauling manure! Will you be injecting it or just spreading it? Love your setup
hey are you all thinking about getting a slurry separator or bedding recovery separator for your slurry system I was watching another farmer vid and there's worked really well and they want to replace it. a separatory would fix the sand problem in your pit and also means you could recover your bedding which should save money in the long run.
Nice work! You are evolving very nicely! 110k- gonna grow fast now!. Keep doing what you do! Don't say ," it is what it is!". trump says that, and it is getting repeated not in a good light at all. You are just seeming honest and sincere, good!
You need to put a camera on the roof of the mx285 when pulling that tanker so we can hear her roar.
I used a 2394 air-conditioning work great but sometimes waters comes out of the air conditioning vents do you have the same problem?
Jan, did you wash the used hose back to exchange for new?
I hope your father makes cool "Dad jokes" like: it's a s**tty job, but someone has to do it!
And he just stands by it as if he were at a bakery enjoying the fresh baked smells mmmm =)
Nothing worse than liquid manure spill or a leaky hose. We had a Case tractor and it rode and drove like a German tank. Jon did put that piece of tin underneath the tractor to protect from starting a fire ?
It is nice to have a longer pipe!!! 😂😂😂👍
Knock on wood... as far as the tractor running so good LOL
👍👍👍
Got a question I always wondered. When your baling the big round bale does a light or something turn on to tell you the bale is coming out.
What do you of these straw belles........ is it used to feeding cattle or only far bed on it........ because in our India this wheat straw used for feeding purpose
Have your Bails ever started on fire? Where i used to work it happen to them they lost around 150 big bails
I was TOTALLY SURPRISED that you would even consider using a USED HOSE on the manure pump
Do you have dates maximum date for hauling manure in Canada just like in holland?
Now thats alota damage, flextape will fix that pipe in no time
hey @saskDutchKid go to your local Fire station and ask if they have any 5"-6" Large Diameter Hose (LDH) laying around... it's usually in great shape, comes in 100' lenghts and would be great in situations like this!! I'm sure the guys and gals would be willing to give it to you for FREE!!
Do you ever get used to the smell of liquid manure? I've always wondered that especially for farmers. I gag up just passing that stuff on the highway
Yes, I'm a farmer and I dont mind the smell of it at all
it could be worse - it could be pig manure
that smell is money in the bank. Liquid gold
Calving lube works well for putting in the nozzles
Onto that pipe
You unanswered my question on big bales!
Please dont fall into that manure pit
You need to get yourself a theme song. Surly one of dem cow girls could rustle you up a good song or two, partner.
You talking about moisture content reminded me of me telling my neighbor that if it was me I would turn over the prairie hay and let it sit for one more day it was green, but he told me that I didn't know what I was talking about. Then bailed up 45 acers of Johnson grass. Then latter on that night I had to call the fire department to put out the hay bails that spontaneous caught fire.
Yan can I ask what do you use the waste liquids for.
Your one hard working smart young man. Any ladies in your life yet
It is what it is phrase drives me nuts Luca
"Up here in Canada where it's freezing for over half the year". What are you doing there?
Not all of Canada is as cold as Saskatchewan. Where I live it is 28 F today (January 1 2021) but tomorrow will be sunny and 37 F. We rarely get snow but when we do it melts in a day.
I just wanted to say, that after adjusting for inflation of your tractor would have sold for $110,000 US Or around $145,000 CA
Hi from Ireland
As always another fine video, hey, it just come to me,, i've been trying to figure out where I recognize you from and I think I finally figured it out, you remind me of the Movie Avatar, I hoe that does nto offend you as its not my intent, but it's interesting. anyway,
The hose deal on one sucks, but on the other hand, it really blows LOL
Thanks for the video, always impressive work man, keep it going.
❤❤❤❤❤
The old Case will run forever, No computers, no government juice, no DPF , no sensors going off every minute, and a mechanical diesel engine simple to work on and repair . not say the young techs in the dealerships at $150 / hour with their scan tools and lap tops. guess Im old school.
