Dad told me one time why Uncle Claude bought an Oliver 70 instead of a John Deere A,but I don't remember now just what the reason was. Harry Allen sold Deere here and Charlie Johnson sold Oliver. I don't remember if it was that Charlie had a 70 and Harry didn't have an A or if it was price. Anyway,Dad had Oliver because that was what Clause had and what Charlie sold. I bought a 77 because it's what Dad had. The late 70s and early 80s changed everything though.

White had gotten on their feet,the local Deere dealers closed and I went back to my roots. As far as being the right choices,yes,I think they all were. We did what we always had to do at the time and it all worked out for the best.
