And then, along with info on tractors, and related items, there is also info on animal weather prognosticators, such as The Great Punxsutawney Phil, from Gobbler's Knob, Pennsylvania! Phil is a groundhog who, every February comes out of his burrow to give the latest info on the weather, so the farmers know when to plan spring plowing, etc. Now, if Phil sees his shadow, he runs back into his burrow, and we'll have 6 more weeks of winter!
