Last time i pulled a tater digger like that was behind and Oliver O C 6 crawler in 57 or 58 , the next year the hoard of people with tater forks and bushel were gone and the new age came into play with the tater Harvester . The bushel baskets gave way to trucks and wagons and now it was one person on flat ground driving the tractor pulling the harvester and two guys on the back and five women on the grading and sorting side and up to eight people either driving the trucks and tractors and wagons and 2 guys at the storage .

Not till 63 did we have a tractor big enough to pull the harvester on it's own .
