Your calendar says the term "Comfort King" was introduced on April 17, 1965, but Stonehouse and Brumbaugh say it was 1962 which is what I remember as my dad and uncle were exploring the possibility of opening a Case dealership and I recall them talking about the "Comfort King.(Unfortunately, they did not do so.) I also remember an ad for the tractors used by the Bloodworth Brothers in Arkansas and the term was used there at that time.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Implements and Their Use - by Curtis Von Fange. 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.
