I helped a friend change out his exhibit at junkshow and because the battery was dead we just punched his BF Avery on the trailer by hand. He then commented on who would have bought this thing when it was new! I stated that you have to remember that not every farm was in the same situation. Say Ernest and Mildred had an 80 acre farm with chickens, some milk cows, a few pigs and 2 aging horses. Some pastured and some under plow. Now the kids have grown and old Daisy and Pete are long in the tooth. So Ernest goes to town where Elmer is making the pitch for the new modern BF Avery. It�s the tractor fitted for your farm. Bring your farming practice into the new decade without the expense of feed and vet bills and we�ll even throw in a free hand saw to cut the reach off your horse machinery. The other thing is technology. The early tractors were crude and simple. (That�s why they still run) The teens and 20�s saw numerous manufacturers in the game. They all had different ideas. Look at the IHC friction drive. It got IH into the game in short order and they built a legacy. Conversely Hart-Parr was much more inclined to engineer, but had their trials as well shown by the vastly different designs they tried in the early years. Then there is the similarity crossing over in that many of these engineers of the short lived companies worked for different tractor companies and brought some like ideas with them or that a competitor picked up on good idea. Here is a leap, but Ford was tagged to a piece of junk built in Minneapolis shearly for market recognition. After that collapse I believe the designer moved on to Happy Farmer where he worked with people who previously worked for Bull. Ironically Bull turned into the Toro we know today.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Part Number Trivia - by Forum Participants. "Replaced by" means the part was superseded. All of my part books date back to 1964 and New Holland have changed some part numbers. They usually put the old Ford part number on the package. I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the
