Husky Farm Equipment Limited

Description

asked if it was for sale. The price was set at $250.and it was sold. The material cost about $100 and the rest was for labour and profit. Ray thought this was more fun than milking cows so he built another thrower with some improvements and it soon sold. This was a time when bulk milk tanks were being offered to the farmers and so they had to keep their driveways open for the milk trucks. With the recent success Ray and Ruth set down and started planning. Following this there were 10 more throwers made, the following year 20 machines and the third year over 50. This amount of business require d some hired help and the first hired hand was neighbour John Bosomworth. Up until this time the equipment was made in the barn in a horse stall. So Ray built a double garage to continue manufacturing and even the bottom floor of the hen house was put to use. In total there were 360 of the â??Snow Throwersâ? made and sold under the trade name â??Raymondâ?.
