• The Tallman Family and the Baler: Oliver's long line of successful balers goes back as far as the early-1900s when Horace Tallman became an agent for the Ann Arbor Machine Company.

• Cletrac Facts: Whatever Happened to the Weidely Motors Company? Sometime in the early-1920s, the Weidely engine disappeared and was replaced by Cletrac's own engine. In this story, we will clarify a few things that led to this change.

• The Oliver Rollover Plow: By the 1950s, the farmer wanted to turn more than one furrow per pass. At that time, Oliver didn't have a multi-bottom plow for the hillside plowing method. They did, however, turn to another company that was building a plow for that purpose - Atlas Scraper and Engineering Company out of California.
