Randolph County sits on a seam. West of it the last Ozark hills stack up in blue rows, and east of it the ground lies flat and farms itself out to the sky. 1# Tractor Service works both sides of that line, cutting grass at places where a wet season got away from somebody and a yard quietly turned into a field. Autumn is the right time for it, when the humidity finally lifts and one long afternoon of cutting can change a whole property by supper. Standing at the gate afterward with the fence, the shed and the shape of the place back in view is the payoff.
