. >> the 1937aos john deere. this is -- number 132 of the first year model. it was an orchard tractor for over eastern washington or wherever they had -- apple orchards or whatever. when they went out of business over in eastern washington guys from bainbridge bought it, he was going to do some logging with it. he decided that the front end was to light sew parked it and i found it later over there on the island and took it home and started to restore it. a long time to restore. when i found there were only 800 made and this was number 132, made it a very popular or real antique. we got a threshing -- lyndon, every year august. goes there and thought about taking to down to california but gas prices maybe stopped that. i'm the only one in -- the area that has one that's politely restored there. are a few others here but nobody has them restored. i'm -- going to a show and it's the only one there. kind of a popular item. i work through the john deere store for 37 years. >> don't forget you can find tractor tales online at united states farm report.com or on fa

like about it is that agriculture, in my opinion, is one of those very important ec to haves, and john deere is completely levered to agriculture. so if you like food and all the droughts and things that we have, i think you're going to see that john deere's perfectly positioned to, you know, take advantage of that as we move forward into the future. but i would like to say something about one of the places i don't like and that's the defensive sectors like verizon and at&t. telecom companies are terribly overbought. verizon in particular has some problems. they're negotiating with their union right now, so i'd be very careful about stepping into that one. ashley: that was a good find. liz: i love these guys. thank you so much, jamie cox and t. doug dale. officials say the drought, speaking of what jamie was just saying, the drought could be peaking, but we've got a top hedge fund manager who says there's still money to be made in the commodities realm. she's going to tell you which ones are the winners coming up and which ones she really doesn't like. that's next. ashley: and troubles surro

john deer and staples and dollar tree out with a negative read. >> last three you mentioned. economy stinks right now. look at earnings growth quarter over quarter only three percent. a year ago 12 percent. companies are not making enough money. >> and sarah, what to tell you about the economy? >> we are not out of the woods yet but thingings are getting better. you look at those companies and you have to think about who is spending dollars in the store. and upper middle class feeling freer to get rid of a home in their house or room in their house and people in the lower part of the economy. they are just not feeling security. >> all right. gary b. there is a different direction than just up and down. >> it is side ways and that is what you are seeing here. some companies are reporting good and some bad as you know. and that reflects uneasiness. and not pervasive negativism. we can speculate. but we don't know what is going to happen with taxes and health care and what is happening with the election. there is a lot of uncertainty . people are trying to feel their way through

this 1953 john deere 60 started as a work horse for its owner.w it's the sound keeping it around. >> i bought it in 1977, it had a loader on it, a country bucket and i needed a track for for around the place. had to run a few cattle and horses, i didn't use it much. when i restored it it's in fairly good shape. one of the features, i slow race with it. it's a very good track for for that because of the large wheel. i can get down to real low rpm's. i was at a farm sale by the canada border and they come up and i was low bidder on it. it had what they call an a01 hitch. it's fairly new at the time. you could use it on three point equipmentt. can run my mower and brush hogs and different things. i use it for my road trips because it's -- good breaks on it and headlights and some of the trips we go on we have to have, lights to get back late at night. when i first got back i had to -- hogging the fields, loading up around the barn and so it was a working track for until about 15 years ago. i had to replace the intake and exhaust, tractor still runs

john deere has managed to capture all that bell labs represented. and they are qualities that are often associated with silicon valley, inspired problem-solving , breakthrough design, visionary management, a culture of creativity, the ability to focus of a short-term issue where keeping one eye of the long-term possibilities. or, as he put it, a lab built upon the notion that a team which understood a technology could create advances that were not simply useful the revolutionary. he has used all of his skill as a writer for fast company and the new york times magazine to give us a ripping good yarn which has just the right balance in my view between technical explanation in human trauma. with him tonight for this cover session is a very good friend of the museum. as many of you know, david, the host of kqed fm program, he frequently appears here as a moderator, and we're glad to welcome him back. ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming john gardner in dave iverson.
