Product Review
Published since 1902 from the heartland (incidentally, by the same folks who later produced Better Homes and Gardens), Successful Farming yields a bounty of ideas and advice "for families that make ranching and farming their business." Readers will find feature articles, industry news, business tips, and product reviews--all written with a down-home, family feel. Recent topics have ranged from ways of maximizing shop space to a profile of three brothers whose ag background won them the Junkyard Wars, a show on The Learning Channel on which contestants build high-tech machines out of spare parts. ("Terry, Brian, and Greg grew up on a dairy farm, where their dad encouraged them to spend Sundays tinkering.") Also handy is Machinery Pete's monthly column, which covers auction sale prices on farm equipment. --Andy Boynton
