By Kari Belanger September 25, 2020

After reading a story about a Massey-Harris 55 tractor in the Feb. 24, 2015, issue of Grainews, Reg Alspach was inspired to put pen to paper and write about his Massey-Harris 55. The feature in Grainews, written by former machinery editor Scott Garvey, was about a Saskatchewan-based, Massey-Harris 55 owner named Frank Paul, who restored[...]

Editor's Column: Get in the van, man

By Leeann Minogue September 11, 2019

We’ve all seen the “Man Van” at farm shows. I’m not sure what I thought was going on in there, but it turns out there are a crew of volunteers taking simple, five-second blood samples to find out if you (or the man next to you) have prostate cancer. I saw this up close at[...]

Editor's Column: Searching for the truth

By Leeann Minogue January 25, 2019

When I read an article in a newspaper or a magazine, the first thing I do is take a look at the byline. I wonder if I’ve read the writer’s work before. If there’s a bio, I look to see if they’ve come to the issue with an obvious agenda that’s going to put a[...]

Editor's Column: The Tractor of the Year

By Leeann Minogue January 10, 2018

This November I took my first trip to Agritechnica, the farm machinery show in Germany. Both of the days I was at the show were “Preview” days — days at the beginning of the week when admission is more expensive, there are smaller crowds, and a higher share of people are wearing business suits rather[...]

Red 4WD Tractors, 1957 - 2017 is a detailed history

By Scott Garvey November 17, 2017

Lee Klancher’s new book Red 4WD Tractors, 1957 – 2017 is no lightweight, figuratively or literally. (That seems only fitting, given the high-horsepower subject matter.) The large format book runs over 370 pages and includes a more than ample helping of rare photos. With Red 4WD Tractors, Klancher follows up on his previous book about[...]
