Back in the day, John's wife would ask him "John deer, please go mow the grass. John Deer please go plow the fields." So John Deer got tired of the physical labor and invented the tractors and equipment. For a serious answer look here http://www.deere.com/en_US/compinfo/student/logoentrypage.html

∙ 14y agoDeere and Company's farm tractor history began indirectly in Waterloo, Iowa in 1892 when pioneering engineer John Froelich built his first "tractor," a term not then in use(this is a shortened form of "traction engine"). JOHN DEERe's agriculture history began much longer ago in 1837 when John Deere himself, working as a blacksmith, polished a steel plow for a farmer. This inovative idea caught on and made Deere famous for his plows which he soon after began to build.
