Something I learned from working on a farm years ago was that pumpkins LOVE cattle manure. My employer piled the manure in a heap on sloping concrete where the effluent could drain into the field, and planted pumpkin seeds in the pile.
Jim was watching you hook the horses up this morning to spread manure love how well the horses listen to you you and your horses make a great team they are very smart good work Jim and horses
Thanks for another great video Jim. Backing the spreader in the barn was beautiful, those horses back so well together Tell your wife we’d like to see how her garden is doing. Your corn field must be head high by now. Always makes my day when I see you have produced a new video and can’t wait to watch. Happy Birthday to your great mother and I thank her for raising a great son. Too bad you didn’t take us along on your visit so we could all meet your mother, maybe next time.
I owe you an apology. I watch all your videos and always enjoy them. However, sometimes I forget to hit the thumbs up. So I apologize for be inconsiderate after you went through the trouble to bring me such enjoyment.
Jim, and Wife, after watching you back the spreader into the barn I find it more difficult to back my car, If practice makes perfect, all I can say is, you have had a lot .???UK.
I love the way you impart your knowledge and wisdom about workin' horses... You are an honest... humble man... who knows how to work hard... and how to thank his Lord for all that he gives... but also knows about life... Your reverence for your departed dad... and your mom... and telling us about her birthday... HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM... God bless you and those you carry in your heart...
Great video Jim, thank you for sharing the love and respect for your parents. Always enjoy your videos. It is not the quantity but quality...... from Canada!
May I ask what you think about mules ? Back in 1927 my grandfather was a good road man in Texas and all he used was big mules he worked all over Texas back then so he said mules will out work a horse and they live longer . I a old man now at the end of my road to life . I enjoy watching you work your horses so much . Thank you and God bless
Don't worry about taking time off Jim. Everybody needs a change of pace from time-to-time. Being head of the household, you have to make sure you keep dating your wife, and plan getaways for the both of you from time-to-time. Happy Birthday to your Mom. My Mom just turned 86 on July 6th. Loved the way you backed up the manure spreader with the horses. A lot of people have a hard time doing that, when they are using a tractor. We had manure spreaders about that size when I was growing up. We pulled ours with an Allis Chalmers WC and WD. You definitely had to figure out which way the wind was blowing, or you would get covered in manure in no time. Our manure was usually a little on the sloppy side.
okay everyone, Jim just took us all to school and gave us a lesson in backing up, with that many joints that was made to look easy, but I have done that and it isnt easy... lol Beautifully trained team...
Those are some premium horses sir , speaks highly of the owner. I like your silo tops. We have some that are joined with a traditional round metal housing. But the tops on yours are pretty elaborate. Awesome video, love seeing Belgians with long tails 👌
Good day Interesting video. You know yrs. ago spreaders had 3 beater with wide spread. They stop went to 2 beaters. now they are building 400 t bushel spreader with vertical beater because it makes a nicer, finer spread , just like the old ones did. Yea liquid manure is crazy on grass. Our neighbour done it with pig manure boy 0 boy balers were just hammering. We had our 273 and neighbour had 273. I think he got about 140bales /acre. Anyways happy birthday Jim's mom. My parents are both gone. Yes miracles do happen. Thanks
My Grandfather was a well known teamster here in north central Wyoming. The predominant harvest was sugar beets. Very laborious animal and human wise. He taught me a lot of things with teams, however not enough. He also did some things I would now change He would gather the reins around the outside hame to put away. Your example is to gather around the inside britchin. I like it. Wish we lived closer. I'd come visit for a day or two - we could swap some true lies. Thanks for sharing your wisdom. Wyoming Jim
You sure are a busy man! Thank you for bringing us along. I am sure it takes longer to do the job this way. That was incredible about the trailer accident! Not even a scratch! Will catch you on the next video.
Hi Jim Julien again you are a person that horses deserve ,they such a great animal if treated correctly . wish i would have known when i had horses ,too late now.
Doing things for yourself is more improtant then making video's. We do enjoy watching you and the horses working together as a team. We will always be here to watch but, work and family come first.
it is such a shame to think of my past - to watch you and your family do good almost great things to be so success in life-thumbs up folks OhYa tell grandma happy birthday from Duluth Minn
HI JIM YOU WERE EXTREMELY LUCKY WITH YOUR HORSES IN THAT ACCIDENT. THOSE MOUNTAIN ROADS IN VERMONT CAN BE TREACHEROUS. LADY AND BILL ARE MY FAVORITES.MY DAD OWNED A PAIR OF BELGIANS THAT I LEARNED TO RAKE HAY WITH. GREAT VIDEOS.
Sure love these old video s and hope we still can see the aerial shots again and those off the barn like these...lovely job... Your horses are so smart
I think the horses were showing off to the camera when they were reversing as we have a saying over here in Australia , “centre metre perfect” for this pair. Nice to watch indeed. Jim ! I enjoy the way you use the old methods with the new to keep the equilibrium on the farm and sawn wood production going forward. I do know how much it takes to make these videos. I do have a channel also called GaryPArmstrong. I think you and your family are so lucky to have what you have all got. When I heard you say basswood, I do believe that is a very easy wood to carve and you American people seem to have a lot of it in your country. I do wood carving but the wood I use is pretty tough and see carvers use this wood a lot in America when carving. Lucky wood carvers of America!
Jim I have mules and would love to be able to do more productive work with them. I do a little plowing , haying and wagon riding. Have learned a lot from your videos. THANKS
Question; do you ever bag any sawdust and sell it to boondockers? They use it in their bucket potty 's. Sometimes animal shelters use it also for small homeless animals. Thank you
God is good live by his laws and he will be their for u when you realy need him he has answerd my prayers numerious times over and over even though i havent always ben their for him being tree climber and a iron worker i have seen mericls numerious times i was saved by God before i believed in god .
Dont beat yourself up we enjoy them whenever you get to release the videos
That is awesome that you have such fond memories of your parents. And that you still have your mother. Peace be with you.
And with you
Love how draughts are built with their sloping quatrers and big necks.

New York state fair has a 900 lb.pumkin one year,,,
Thanks for sharing a typical morning start to your day. I like the little lesson on which side the long and short reins go!
Jim was watching you hook the horses up this morning to spread manure love how well the horses listen to you you and your horses make a great team they are very smart good work Jim and horses

Nice back up, they did great!
What a joy to watch you work with Bill and Lady.
Thanks, they are enjoyable to work with
Your horses look very well fed very nice pair of horses hope I live long enough to see the colts start pulling
Thanks for another great video Jim. Backing the spreader in the barn was beautiful, those horses back so well together Tell your wife we’d like to see how her garden is doing. Your corn field must be head high by now.

Jim,I love watching a true hard working man who shows his pride in what he does.Thank you.
I owe you an apology. I watch all your videos and always enjoy them. However, sometimes I forget to hit the thumbs up. So I apologize for be inconsiderate after you went through the trouble to bring me such enjoyment.

I don’t quite understand how your hard work has a soothing effect on my mood while in isolation but I like it!
Glad to hear it!
I spent four summers in my early teens on a farm like yours: hard but satisfying work.
Happy Birthday to your Mom. That was some accident with the trailer. Thanks for the video. Take care and stay safe, Al
WOW, that accident sounded awful !!
Yuuup, Happy Birthday to your Mom, Jim !!

I love watching your videos it still amazes me how you and the horses work as a whole team
God definitely protected you and your horses!

My gosh, Jim, your Belgians can be really swift with the manure spreader (: Great job backing up!
I can see how the horses must really enjoy working for you! You can walk around them do all you need to do and they don't move. just great thanks.
He respects them, and they respect him. However, it takes a long time and a lot of patience to get the team to that state
New subscriber and just loving each vid that I watch. You and the family have a very idyllic life. Very interesting and enjoyable.
Thanks for subscribing, we appreciate it and are glad you are enjoying the videos
I always admire your horses and you as working together with them in geat harmony. Keep on doing that!

Happy birthday to your mom!

gotta question for the Mrs?Has jim always been as lo-key and the nice fella as we know him today? Your one lucky gal
This is the Mrs...He has always been a great guy to be around but as he gets older he gets more low key, hopefully I am too!
Hi Jim.
New Subscriber.
LOVE the horse team❤
Thanks for subbing!
Jim I have mules and would love to be able to do more productive work with them. I do a little plowing , haying and wagon riding. Have learned a lot from your videos. THANKS
Watching some of the old videos before I subscribed.
Nice
fab video Jim. hows lady getting along after the dental work. Is the vitamin E supplement showing any improvement.
Best regards UK
She’s doing a lot better after her dental appointment, thanks
For Horses to back up is really a feat in it'self.
14:19 there is no way the backing up should be that easy. Nice
Question; do you ever bag any sawdust and sell it to boondockers? They use it in their bucket potty 's. Sometimes animal shelters use it also for small homeless animals. Thank you
We use it here on the farm for bedding
Thanks for sharing
Love it Jim
Jim, do all four of your horses get along together ? No in-house fighting or biting, etc. ?
not always, sometimes they don't get along
Jim, How did you learn to do all the lines and hook up for the horses?
I mostly learned it from my father
Hi Jim, thanks for another helpful video from an aspiring teamster. Do you use a farrier or do your own feet? A video of shoeing would be great.
I have an amish farrier, and I have had some requests from others for that video also. I'll see what I can do
I enjoyed the video as always! Do your horses ever spook at traffic? Maybe an occasional motorcycle?
Sometimes, Ken especially.
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim should do a sawmill video
Hi Jim and Brenda, this may be a stupid question . Do the horses lay down and sleep at night or any other time? Thank You
Hi, thanks for watching.Some of our horses lay down at night and some don’t. Not a stupid question.
Have you ever talked about how much it cost to feed your horses thank you
why do you use tie stalls instead of box stalls ?
They seem more practical to me and it's what I've always used and have room for.
God is good live by his laws and he will be their for u when you realy need him he has answerd my prayers numerious times over and over even though i havent always ben their for him being tree climber and a iron worker i have seen mericls numerious times i was saved by God before i believed in god .
QUESTION? does each horse have its own harness or no?
Yes, each horse does, fitted to them
super moi j'ai travailler avec les chevaux dans le boit
ya you know jim you have probably lost more ambition then i will ever have
I am a women from Sweden a sheepfarmer, and i am wondering where in US do you live? With state?
Hi! Glad you are watching. We live in New York near the Canadian border.
Working Horses With Jim I thouth it was in the north because the nature looks a lot like where I live here in Sweden.
👍
Hee means left and haw means right, or is it vice versa?
Gee means right, haw means left
Sorry, but I have a lo of questions today, Jim !! Do your horses know their respective names, or not ? Do they come when you call them by name ?
They do know their names.
i wonder if your line setup is right?
What do you ado wiyj all the sawdust? bedding?
Yes
what are your horse's age
they range from 13 to 20 years old
I do love your videos, but... by all means, get your work done... We can wait... It's worth it to me...
