NOM 2T0 PARKER PARKER NA I "T E. C3 In 1961, the Htttvn Muton organization began with four employees in a 3,200 square foot facility. It was founded on a commitment to deliver high quality products and genuine value service to area fanners In 11996, this commitment is stronger than ever with three locations and a total full-time staff of 68 employees. The Huron Tractor dealership began 35 years ago under the direction of partners Harry Winters, Herb Verbeek, Bruce Hasselback, Jack Van Bus- sell and Earl Long. Today, in 1996, ownership of Huron Tractor is in its second generation. The operating partners now are Frank Winters, Peter Hakvoort, John Rud- derham, Paul Van Oss and Henry Winters. In the Huron Tractor organization today, 75 percent of the resources, people and facilities are committed to the after sale support of the products they sell. Parts Inventories and Service Support are aimed at helping farm- ers obtain the maximum performance from their John Deere machinery. Huron Tractor has learned over 35 years that the needs of the farmers have changed because of changing technology. However, the basics are the same. Farmers expect high performing reliable products, with good re- sale, that go to the field and get the job done in our short seasons. Huron Tractor's preventive maintenance and annual parts stock order programs have enabled farmers to reduce their operating costs and achieve greater efficiency in their farming operations. The off-season preventive maintenance has also provided stable year round employment of a quality staff. • DWtGd* GENERAL ?7R$ FARM TRAC R-1 • Wide deur for traction, stability and Bastion • Underteead resists bruising and penetration • Extra weight helps prevent wheel spinning alb FARM GRIP R-1 • Deep biting tugs for soil penetration • curved lug design for excellent self deanktg • tong tread bar overlapping for even centre wear P.00mn iRE Algoma Tire (Exeter) Ltd. 8rx 188 1-11/0 185-1247 t%5.f80 ilYTra&sn Pft-Gomp ttq� Goodyear Bais and Radial Tractor Tires Firestone Bais and Radial Tractor Tires Concept Bais Radial Tractor Tires Algoma Tire (Exeter) Ltd.
