Illinoian farmer and blacksmith John Lane changed the landscape of agriculture when he created the first steel plow out of a sawmill blade. In the 19th century, America was expanding westward, and farmer’s traditional wooden plows struggled going from the soft east coast soil to the tough and compacted midwestern plains. John Lane’s steel plow made quick work of the midwestern sod and laid the groundwork for the region that is now known as “America’s Breadbasket.” Despite the success and popularity of his invention, John Lane never patented the steel plow, but continued to make them by hand and on-demand for other farmers. Because he did not patent the invention, other blacksmiths across the country were able to produce their own steel plows which forever changed the lives of American farmers and the Nation that relied on them.
