[AT] Canada A-C Disker Drill?

[Ralph Goff]

Hi Herb
I've been out in the combine all afternoon, like most days lately, so have 
just got around to reading e mail.
Interesting to hear about the AC disker. While diskers were very popular 
here in that era, the Allis Chalmers were not one of the better known. In 
fact I can't recall ever seeing one. IH, Massey, Cockshutt, JD and Case were 
all popular as well as another unique Canadian brand, CCIL. That stood for 
Canadian Co-operative Implements and they sold diskers, combines, tractors 
other equipment under this name.
You mention Kilberry and that is an old name from the fifties and sixties. I 
knew it best as a brand of swather (windrower) that I believe later became 
the Macdon company.
