Here are three pictures displayed.    

The first picture is of a feed mill in the early 1900's in Stangleville, Wisconsin.  Note the horse and buggy.  The feedmill housed an Allis Chalmers flour mill.  It is located east of Green Bay, Wisconsin, halfway between Green Bay and Lake Michigan.   

The second picture is of two pieces of crating that were used to ship the flour mill from Allis Chalmers in Milwaukee to Stangleville.  

The last picture is of Edwin Reinke, the owner of the feed mill, and the purchaser of the flour mill.  He was 90 years old when this picture was taken of him seated on my restored Allis Chalmers D-14. 

The D-14 belonged to my father and was restored in memory of him.  I am standing in front of the tractor.
