Badger’s chain is designed to operate smoothly with minimum wear.
Every link is heat-treated forged steel, joined by heavy carbon-steel

just aren’t getting the start
that they need.”
Another man commented
that his Fall grains were
doing all right, but that he
had gotten them planted
exceptionally early, while
there was still alot of
moisture that they could
draw on. In fact, he said that
they were doing fine, with
good growth.
But he had also heard of
other farmers whose Fall
grain crops were not doing
quite so well, and these had
been planted later in the
Fall. Then they would have
been more affected by the
dry weather.
