Thumbs up for one million

Cy Keller, one of the inventors of the original three-wheeled loader, approves of the one-millionth Bobcat skid-steer loader, which rolled off the production line in Gwinner on Saturday. Keller and his late brother, Louis, built the first loader in Minnesota in 1957 before partnering with Melroe Manufacturing a year later. The ceremony was held at the Gwinner production facility, where 1,230 people are employed.
