Carter Farms in Ga. = President Jimmy Carter.

I bought mine from the one just below his in Cedar Hill, Texas. Never made a dime.

Being from Canada eh? I didn't expect you to get the subtlety. :mrgreen:

I'm not sure if Mr. President, Jimmy was part of the earthworm business or just the peanut farming side of it. Maybe it was his brother Billy? I just find it a bit of history that touches slightly our interests.

Here's an interesting one...Mechanics Illustrated Sep 1956. Maybe not the ORIGINAL "locost", but pretty darned early.
