Just wondering how many out there had similar experiences in school. Started first grade in 1963, small town in centeral North Dakota. When the John Deere Show was on at the local dealer it was shown at the small community show hall in town. They would run it twice, once in the morning and again in the afternoon. The morning showing was for the school kids, we all would get bundled up and walk the 3 blocks from school to the show hall. Grades 1-12 went, about 150 kids at that time and the show hall would be packed! (Wasn't really a theater or "show hall" as we called it, was the local dance hall in town with a screen on one end and a old carbon-arc projector on the other end with a flat floor between them). I remember going to these shows, my Dad had a few 2 cyl. John Deeres and I just loved seeing the new tractors on film. Small town, people moving on, the John Deere dealer closed when I was in the 4th grade, I remember they had a auction late in the fall of '67, was sad to see it closeing even at thae age of 10. Anybody else where the whole school went to the John Deere Show? By the way, still LOVE the sound of those 2 cylinders, It's a beautiful noise!

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
