A local implement store with the same phone number since 1906 has been sold by Schoon Implement Employees. The sale ends decades of family ownership and marks a new era for the historic business and its customers.
In Monticello Schoon Implement marks 49th year in business with George Schoon at the helm since 1946, continuing the "Sales With Service" motto. The firm, handling Allis-Chalmers since 1935, notes a strong field service force and a well stocked parts department. LaVerne Schoon, son of George, earned a 1953 tour of Allis-Chalmers plants for top sales performance. The piece highlights service schooling, plant visits, and upcoming demonstrations at the Great Jones County fair.
