Alex McRae of the Idaho National Harvester Company reports exceptional results for the little Idaho combined harvesters in the Northwest. Of 64 machines sold, only three failed to meet buyers’ expectations under adverse conditions, boosting confidence in Moscow’s firm as a new stock sale and a 402400 feet factory expansion aims to raise capacity and add new machinery for next season.
