Upper picture looked like the tractor I played on at Grandpa Schurter's farm. It's a Massey-Ferguson getting ready to be restored. This appeared to be in exactly the same condition as I remember the one on the farm. I'm counting on someone to correct my failing memory.

Cold War: Part 3
I've moved further into the 1956 publication entitled "Facts." We experienced the Cold War in the past but we also have a new Cold War in this modern age of technology. I imagine enemies of the United States spending endless amounts of time and money trying to hack our power grids. The mass confusion and fear that could cause is hard to imagine. As we look back and smile at some of our fears from 60 years later may the same be true for our children and grandchildren.

Cold War Era: 1956
