[AT] 1935-1940 Dust Bowl

I noticed the later equipment, too. Massey-Harris self propelled combines certainly were not available in the early 1930's!

They seemed to mix pictures of various eras while talking about an era.  
They were talking about mechanized farming during WWI but the pictures 
shown were of 20s era IHC tractors.  When talking of the bumper crops 
they showed 40s era combines and another time showed 30s era rubber 
tired tractors.  Sometimes they were correct like the time they were 
showing a field of ladder frame Fordsons while talking of late WWI.
