Mark, I am not to far from you. Take I-64 to Mt Sterling. Turn south on Highway 11. I am about 9 or 10 miles from there. The 900 along with the 274 and Ford had one about the same time. They all looked to use IH cultivator on them. They were all decent little tractors, but they were not as good as the Super A/100/130/140. It is hard to improve on anything that has held up as well as the little Farmall offsets. I seen a paper a couple years ago that said that 90 % of the 140's since 1948 when they came out were still at work. I don't think anyone can boast any better numbers than that. If you do decide to come let me know , because I am still moving some of these things from the other places and don't have it all here yet. Several of my old Super A implements are at my dad's place in Harrison county. I also have several old Implements for Cub's, H's and M's some of which is in Harrison county as well. I tell the wife this is my museum in progress. I also have several old hose drawn implements and a antique Case Hay baler that my dad and his brothers had to ride and set blocks of wood and tie the wire by hand. It hasen't been used since 1956, and some parts have been robbed off it or I would restore it. I have gramps's horse drawn Beamus tobacco setter that he bought new in 1947. It is sitting were he parked it in a barn in 1971 or 72. It was converted, with a shorter tounge in 195 to use behind the Cub he bought that year. I use to tease him about the Cub being so little and he always said it beat the hell out of looking up a horses a$$. Anyhow let me know if and when you may want to come, and I will build a fire and get thje Dutch oven out.

An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
