Some Amish are allowed depending on the sect to have electricity in the barn but not in the house, others cannot have it at all. They are allowed to use it at any time as long as they do NOT own the electric system or the power tools. The Amish carpenters you either furnish the power tools or the driver they hire to haul them to the construction site will own the tools. Telephones they are just not allowed to own one. In some areas the phone companys would mount a pay phone on a pole on the road right of way next to their drive for them to use. Tires some will not allow rubber at all and others no air supported tires. Some will only use steel tired open buggies while others will use a solid rubber tire closed buggy. Some are not allowed to have spark ignition engines while others are. Very nice people and try to get along with everybody.

The group I am familar with have not yet gone to brakes on their open steel wheel buggies, flat land, but they do use the SMV emblins and other reflective tape plus a red flashing light to rear on both sides of buggy and they do have licence plates on all their buggy's. These are from the Berne, Ind area. Over here in Ohio around Holms county in the hills most buggies do have brakes. And they are more modern in the farm equipment they use.

At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
