THE USUAL SUSPECTS

THE USUAL SUSPECTS: Western Kansas Manufacturers Association president and sponsor of the 3i SHOW Eddie Estes poses with Dodge City Marshal Charlie Meade at the Western State Bank Expo Center March 17. “The first 3i SHOW began in 1953 in the Hays, Kansas,” Estes said. “Several manufacturers pulled their implements up to the town square, unloaded their stuff and decided to have a show. From there on, they would go from town square to town square.” When asked what the future holds for the 3i show, Estes said, “We have older farmers now and fewer farms so we need to be able to react to that. The biggest thing we’re working on now is changes in technology.” [PHOTO BY Whitney Hodgin/Dodge City Globe]
