The school bus is back, giving our dogs voice and some exercise in the early mornings and late afternoons. It can only mean that fall cleanup is just around the corner. Fortunately, I have a John Deere Gator utility vehicle and am seriously looking at the new Curtis cab mentioned below, to shut out the coming inclement weather. John Deere continues to roll, reporting increased sales and earnings, no doubt contributing to the increase in July small tractor sales. You'll find all these stories and more in this edition of Rural Marketing News.
