John Deere 12A pulled by a WD Allis Chalmers which made a real good combination because of the WD's live PTO with the hand clutch. Also the 12A tounge was on the right side. Ours had a grain tank that, I think, held about 50 bushels, so no bagging. We had a Kory gravity wagon. Just one. It was pulled by a WC Allis Chalmers to a New Idea elevator that elevated the grain into the bins thru multiple chutes which was considered quite modern at the time. We never touched the grain. I'm trying to remember the year we started doing that. It might have been around 1950. I remember the last year I did it. It was 1964. I was home from the Army at combining time and got to do it one more time. Does anyone remember who and when built the last pull type combine? I think it was John Deere. And I think it was before the turn of the century (20 to 21). And by the way. Back when we were doing this, everyone agreed that Allis Chalmers made the best combines/ So, why did we use a John Deere? Beats me. I'm still using a John Deere combine. Why? Beats me. (;>)) I'll tell you one thing, though. They have great capacity and dealer support. When I call for help, they are there pronto. When I call for a part or parts they deliver them. Day or night. Saturday and Sunday included.
