Sears sold David Bradley farm implements and garden tractors and Allstate tires for tractors. My Great Uncle Earl got replacement French and Hetch round spoke rear wheels and Allstate 9.00-36 tires for his unstyled 1937 John Deere B through Sears when he replaced the steel rear wheels that originally came on it. As I recall Wards sold their own make of farm implements and Wards Riverside farm tractor tires. The rear tires were often bought by many to replace orginal rear tires on all makes of tractors as they had very big agressive lugs and pulled pretty good at that time. We bought two Wards Lo-load Wagon chassis from Wards and a 2-14 pull type moldboard plow. Their tractors were the Avery type "Wards Twin Row" and later a Harry A. Lowther built Chrysler powered bigger row crop tractor, They sold a lot of garden tractors that were built by Simplicity, we had the smaller version of that too....it was all pretty good stuff in those days. Oh, almost forgot, we had a Wards "Grainbuster" 10 inch Hammermill too, it was really a good machine. We bought a lot of items of the various things Wards sold, it was all reasonable and of pretty good quality. Sears wasn't bad either really....Good American made stuff....not like the "imported" junk we see so much of nowdays at the so-called farm stores.
