YES WE ARE DEALING AS NEVER
BEFORE. The reason we are over
stocked on Combines due to the 1983 DRY
weather. 1984 crops appear to be of
machine “BUSTIN” capacity So don’t
take a chance on that old machine. Make
your selection now before the rush and
while the bargains are still around. We
have a finance plan to fit your needs
whether its Waiver, Low Rate Financing,
Lease, or Cash with BIG Discounts.
