He spent the first decades of his adult life inventing things that mostly failed.
speaker_0NARRATOR
A self-guided plow he patented in nineteen twenty, designed to let a tractor till a field in a spiral without a driver, sold poorly and terrified the farmers who tried it, since an unmanned tractor running loose across open ground had a tendency to plow through fences, outbuildings, and anything else in its path.

David McCartGUEST
structure here and people are still driving to Columbus when we, when we want them to be working here locally, uh, I mean, we got to make sure that we have the industry to support the housing.
David McCartGUEST
So one of the biggest pushes I see that we need moving forward is just that industry.
David McCartGUEST
Yeah.
David McCartGUEST
Yes, it's going to take forever to pay off those things, but we're also going to be growing as a city.
David McCartGUEST
We're going to be getting those houses that people want.
David McCartGUEST
They're going to have the people stay in this area as opposed to driving to Columbus or Yankton or somewhere else.
