The first tractor made by a USA college student was created by John Froelich in 1892. Froelich, who briefly attended Iowa State College (now Iowa State University), built the tractor by mounting a gasoline engine onto a chassis, departing from the steam-powered engines of the time.
Froelich's tractor was revolutionary, offering a more practical and efficient solution for farm work. It could move forward and backward and was used to thresh wheat, significantly reducing labor and increasing productivity. This breakthrough led to the development of more advanced tractors, transforming agricultural practices.
The success of Froelich's invention laid the foundation for the Waterloo Gasoline Engine Company, which later became part of the John Deere tractor company. Today, John Deere is a leading name in agricultural equipment, and Froelich's work is celebrated as a critical milestone in farming technology, demonstrating the impact of innovation and practical engineering skills

This 16-bit minicomputer was released by the American company Data General in 1969 and was very popular in science laboratories around the world and ultimately sold tens of thousands of units. The 32K Nova was packaged into a single 3U 19" rack-mount² case 5.25 inches high, it consumed 400 watts, and was introduced at a modest price of $3995(1K core memory³ option) during a period of rapid progress in integrated circuit design. The Data General sales brochure advertised it as "the best small computer in the world".

Hmm... Illustrate a re-telling of the Froelich/John Deere mythology with a photograph of a Farmall? Froelich's tractor was little more than a proof of concept. It barely worked and was a one off.
S.S. Morton developed a far more successful tractor that evolved into the Farmall.

These guys are pumping water, unaware they are in the presence of the notorious “Pump of Death.” In 1876, the water began to taste strange and was found to contain liquid human remains which had seeped into the underground stream from cemeteries. Several hundred people died in the resultant Aldgate Pump Epidemic as a result of drinking polluted water.
The spring water of the Aldgate Pump had been appreciated by many for its abundant health-giving mineral salts, until – in an unexpectedly horrific development – it was discovered that the calcium in the water had leached from human bones.
The terrible revelation confirmed widespread morbid prejudice about the East End, of which Aldgate Pump was a landmark defining the beginning of the territory. The “Pump of Death” became emblematic of the perceived degradation of life in East London and it was once declared with superlative partiality that “East of Aldgate Pump, people cared for nothing but drink, vice and crime.”
The pump was first installed upon the well head in the sixteenth century, and subsequently replaced in the eighteenth century by the gracefully tapered and rusticated Portland stone obelisk that stands today with a nineteenth century gabled capping. The most remarkable detail to survive to our day is the elegant brass spout in the form of a wolf’s head – still snarling ferociously in a vain attempt to maintain its “Pump of Death” reputation – put there to signify the last of these creatures to be shot outside the City of London.
