that would be the air motor company. the air motor company started off in chicago, illinois, in the late 1800s. at some point in the early 1900s, they moved over to argentina. while they were in argentina they made the exact same windmill. then they moved back to chicago. in the 1950's, they were purchased by a texan. santhe plant was moved to where they still make windmills today. your larger ranches still use windmills. it is easier to put up a windmill for $20,000 than it is to run 20 miles of electrical lines in order to be able to pump water for your ranches. one ranch actually has a full-time windmiller. one of the reasons the air motor business is still in business today because they were always thinking, what can we do to make life easier? what can we do to make life better? they were one of the first ones to create what was called the power mill. it would have been a different gearing system on a building outside the barn or one of the other outbuildings. underneath, there would be a grinder, so they could grind

ford was thinking they needed to compete more with general motors. general motors had a very established steppingstone system in their car plant -- car brand. you would start with a chevrolet and ultimately get up to cadillac. ford had three divisions -- the ford brand, mercury, and the lincoln at the top of the chain. they thought they needed another step in there. was introduced to be that fourth step in the ford motor somebody changed. ford introduced it with more razzmatazz than we can possibly imagine today. they put advertisements in newspapers, they bought out an hour of prime time special. they had a special with not just in crosby, but bob hope and frank not to stars of the day -- and frank sinatra, stars of the day singing the praises of this car. but it flopped. people were not interested. i think there are three reasons. frankly, the unconventional styling. you look at that -- sometimes this is called a horst koehler to grill. it was different from anything else on the road in the 1950's. it also sometimes got unfavorably impaired to othe
