the farmers couldn’t under

began to follow,” he said

You avoid plugging delays, do a better covering job,
plow at top speed with an Oliver. Here are extra big
passageways for trash —greater beam clearance, more
furrow-turning space between bottoms.
No more rehitching or recoupling, either. Oliver
plows have spring-trip beams that permit the bot
toms to swing back, ride over obstructions without
damage. To reset, just back the tractor. What a
time- and share-saver 1
